^'Reconstruction.'' 'Sheet is authorized by Mr.

.VOORHEES to eay that housed no euch language as was attributed tohim in his Sullivan •*8pfeech, by Sergeant BROWN. We give him the benefit of his denial, and have not the -lightest disposition to do him injustice by misrepresentation of his opinions or speeches.

The News Sheet, in referring to this matter, uses this language We cannot be deceived in the man. He 8, heart and soul, for a reconstruction of the Union as it was, aad will be the last man to surrender to the doctrine of secession. This is not only his position but also that of the Democratic party.

He may be heart and soul for a reconstruction of the Union, but on what principles would ho have it reconstructed We know he la desirous of making concessions to the rebels, for ^he so stated in his reception speech, as all who heard him know. He said he did not believe the Union could be restored by force of arms. He was in favor of peace, &c. Now, what are the concessions which Mr.. VOORUEES would make for the sake of peace He has not told his constituents how much he would yield to the rebels for the sake of having peace with them. The News Steel will not inform its readers how far it is ready to go for the sake of peace with JEFF. DAVIS and his rebel associates. It cannot inform them what the "position of the Democratic party is," in regard to reconstructing the Union. Reconstruct the Union 1 How reconstruct With whom meet to reconstruct 'i Where meet Are JEFF. DAVIS, and TOOMBS and YANCEY, and WIQFALL, and BENJAMIN, and SLIUELL, and MASON, and PRYOR, and WISE, with the other leading rebels, who plotted the ruin of this Government in time of peace, to meet in Convention with DANIEL W. YOOEHEES, F. COOKERLY and other leaders of the socalled Democratic party for the purpose of "restoring the Union, pure and unsullied, as it came from the hands of our fathers," to use the language of the News Sheet? Bat these men who are for reconstructing the Union may say that they would not go into a convention with JEFFBBSON DAVIS and other rebels to reconstruct the Union. Whom then would they go into a convention with for the purpose of reconstruction? Whom would they make/'concessions" with With whom would they have peace?

JEFFERSON DAVIS and his associates hold the entire power of the South in their own hands. They hold the purse, aud sword, and a peace not made with them would bo worse than a faice. With no other Southern rebels could any kind of a peace be made. And looking back over the last two years, does the News Sheet say that JEFFERSON DAVIS would, all at once become so pure and unsullied, as to assist in restoring the UniQn .as it come from the hands of our fathers? ,v ...

Wo aro tolii in the above extract that tho Democrats aro for reconstruction. Thon lot them send their delegates to a Convention in common with delegates from tlie Southern Confederacy to accomplish thi3 purpose Democrats of the latter day kind must be

The peace democrats of this State as rep resented in tho legislature,last winter wece desirous of meeting at Nashville. Suppose this delegation then, in common with the peace delegates from the North, were to, proceed to Nashville to reconstruct the Union in a "pure" aud "unsullied" manner, aud there meot with the rebel leaders, whose garments were still red with the blood of the brave sous of Indiana, who fell in the battles of Stono ltiver whilo fighting to maintain the Hag of their country.

The Effect of Eloquence.

^.-At the buttern^t^fiieeiing en Saturday inpthe n^rtl/part ef. the city, a scene is said to have ^occurred Which serves to illustrite |he wonderful effect ef words, when spoken by^an o'tytdZt-tn whom born at command the eleetric fires of eloquence. The passage is sajd to baveoccnrred in the speech of the editor of the News Sheet, who is, as is well known, an orator of no small pro portions. He was attacking with great power something which Col. THOMPSON had said in his speech to the Union Convention last week, when the candidates for city offices were nominated, and after repeating what

Col. THOMPSON then said, he lashed himself into a terrible excitement over its injustice to good democrats, and exclaimed "What! Must the bowels of Great Britain be torn at He paraphrased.

The stroke was sublime as well as electric, and the crowd was all attention, knowing that the orator had commenced to perorate. The speaker swayed to and fre, like the giant oak of the forest in the midst of a raging storm, and some persons present imagined for a few moments that they were in the British Parliament in its olden days. But just as the orator had finished the sentence, and when the most intense feeling pervaded the assembly, an Irishman in the crowd exclaimed "Och, by St. Patrick, an they're no bigger than your own I" The house come dewn and CHATHAM concluded. Further tho deponent sayeth not.

Destruction of Rebel Supplies. We doubt if there has been a week since the war commenced in which the Confederates have lost so much that was indispensa' ble tv them, as during tho week which has just past. The commissary stores, and means of transportation which they

have

lost as

Hitherto the rebels have almost entirely monopolized the business of sending out ex peditions to cut lines of communication, and destroy commissary stores, but recently our commanders have become wiser by the action of their enemies, and aro now causing heavy losses to tho Confederate generals, by tho activity displayed in this species of warfare. Tho loss to the rebels on the Cumber land alone by tho expedition of Col. GRAHAM, was quite heavy, and the destruction of their boats will annow them in no inconsiderable degree. We trust, now, that our generals have become waked up to the importance of such expeditions, that they will continue to make them very frequent and unprofitable to tho rebels. Small forces can move in this manner and inflict severe losses on an enemy

Tho News Sheet Bays its party is in favor ol such a convention, therefore it will not becomo offended at us for what we write. But to make up the list of delegates, wo would suggost tho following leading democrats Tho names of D. W. VOORHEES and G. F. COOKERLY would appear first. We would then add the names on tho [Democratic ticket to be voted for on Tuesday next, as follows W. H. STEWART, JAMES M. RANDOM, jr., GEQ. MCHENRY, FEED FISHER and J. B. OTEY.

meal sundoriug of the linibes from the body, would be a mere christian and civilized pun-

incite an inferior race to insurrection." Tho Gazette is naturally enough shocked at this un-English proposal, and thereupon takes occasion to observe that the American rebels cannot understand tho feelings of England iu regard to the war, and that no sympathy with each bloody minded schemes of Vengeance—so utterly inhuman, or worthy only of Minnesota savages, would ever be found in that country. Nay more, the writer affirms, what all the world knows, that the uprising of a portion ol an enemy subjects, inferior, or superior in race, is a desirable object to effect aud quite a legitimate operation of war adding that Jil Great Britain wero engaged in war with France, nothing would bo more natural than for France to excite Hindoo, Mussulmau and Arab to revolt and nothing more monstrous than to treat officers engaged in that service otherwise than as men conducting a legitimate oporation. It is a necessary ovil of war, says the sartio writer, in which-er-vilo insurrection may bo invoked by an invader to increase tho ordinary horrors and calamities of hostile occupation. Tho South em rebels must carry tho whole weight of slavery on thoir shoulders in peace or in war. Insurrection is an accident, and contingent of any war in which a Stato of slaveholders engages, and the officers who dcvolopo it aro as froo from any act of vengeance or retaliation as those who fight on tho decks of their ships, or in tho lines of their regiments. So tho rcbol London paper took nothing by its motion.

THE buttormtt class of Democrats are holding mass meetings hi each ward of the city, at which speeches aro made, and plans arranged by which to succeed if possible in tho election of next Tuesday. They are cortainly working with a zeal worthy abetter cause. Union men! do not slumber too long nor too soundly, or the victory will be suatched from you.

WK aro astonished to witness the bad tcm per of tho News Sheet towards the Editors ol this papor. ItdbeS not hesitate to call us "hacks" and such like elegant names. This id very uncliivalric and ungenerous. When wo bestow a well timed cotapliment on its Edltof (j°"y fellow') hs forthwith becomes wrathv, and paws fyound in an alarming maimer, all of which is very unpleasant to us. Unless he can behave better in the future we will have to put him In irons.

Arbitrary Arrests.

The Committee, on "Arbitrary arrests," apointed by the lale Legislature, in making their .report on (he circumstances attending the ariert of Judge CuriiABLX, uses the following language.

But, the President, as Commander-in-Chief, through bis subordinatesusurps greater powers than the king in England dare exercise, for through them he ucdertaks to determine when a judge has decided or wrong, and to punish him for that decision— not by any regular course of judicial proceedings, either civil or criminal, nor yet by the fcji* pointed out by the Constitution for corrupt acts, which is by impeachment but by an arbitrary Turkish process of military despotism.

J-

The extinction of a nationality, in whose language {ire recorded the first events of human history, whose Constitution antedates the pyramids by three hundred years, and whose arts, literature and laws aro the sources of all future civilization, is recorded by its last historian in that one startling sentence, "Sedition destroyed the city, and Romans destroyed the Sedition."

The sedition which led TITOS into the Hebrew capital was but the madness of those whom the Gods would destroy. If the attacks upon the President and the officers of the Government under him, were mere madness, they would be relatively innecent.—• But events which every day occur around us, and language like the above every day used seen in an arranged, simultaneous and systematized effort to bring the Government into disgrace and paralyze its arm in this frightful struggle for national life, show very conclusively that the schomo is not ono of madness alone.

consequence of the success of Federal expeditions into their lines have been very great. The losses have occurred at a time when they could ill afford to suffer the inconvenience Occasioned thereby. Tho means of transportation which the rebels have, are yielding rapidly, and threaten at no very distant day to check their movements aud operations. .. Their commissary stores are becoming dangerously reduced, and the loss in that way is a harder blow to their cause than the loss of a battle. The Charles ton Courier says a "ridge of potatoes is worth any aiilo of breastworks from Vicksburg to the Rappahannock, and certainly ifsuch is the case, the destruction of their supplies will re suit in greater loss to them than the destrue tion of any kind of fighting material.

But a few days since, our Representative in a speech in Sullivan, alleged that Northern men were the cause of the war, and that "Mr. LINCOLN and his legion of followers (meaning the loyal people and army) were nothing more than the murderers of his Southern brethern." Such utterances are made daily by the leaders of what they call tho Democratic party'in the West, as well as in the East, and they aro made in such an organized manner, and attended by such results as to convince the close observer, that the 'enormous conspiracy' of which Mr DOUGLAS spoke on the 1st of May, 1861, has its conspirators in the North, who are playing their infernal part in this drama.

The key note was struck by ALEXANDER H. STEVENS at Savannah, on the 22d of March, 1861 when he said: "The process of di«entegration in the old Union will go on with almost absolute certainty. We are the nucleus of a growing power. Looking to the future, it is not beyond the range of possibility, and even probability, that all the great States OF THE NORTHWEST shall gravitate this way. Our doors are wide open to receive them, but not until they are ready to assimilate with us in principle."

What we see in our midst almost every day, of these efforts to bring disgrace upon the President, and paralyze this, and to inspire with confidence the rebel government are assigned and set parts in the play of the conspirators in this "process of disintegration." It is, indeed, folly to tell intelligent people that the President usurps power greater than tho King in England dare exercise, or executes the "Turkish process of military despotism." The audacity of this accusation, that military arrests for the public safety in time of great danger, are unprecedented despotism, and usurpations of power preator than Kings dare exercise, is absolutely ridiculous. In the war for our institutions, and most of them under the general command of Washington, these military arrests were made almost daily. Some wero charged with "being inimical to the liberties of America, as in tho case of CONNOLLY, and others, in Maryland. Others with "damning Gen. WASHINGTON and Congress," as in the caso of KIBKPATRICK of tho same State. Others for expressing "sentiments inimical to America," and for "advising men to lay down their arms," as in the case of BELMIRES of the same State. Others fol"being "enemies to American liberty," as in the case of TESTILL, of the same State. Others for being "disaffected to tho cause of American freedom," as in the caso of twentry Friends, or Quakers, taken from Philadelphia and imprisoned at Winchester, Virginia. Others for being "suspected" of being loyalists, as in the case of Colonel HENRV FREY of New York, imprisoned during the war, with others, at Hartford, Connecticut. Under WASHINGTON, throughout tho whole war, by military authority and in disregard of habeas corpus, for the public safety, these arrests of dangerous men were almost universal.

It is calculating largely 011 tho credulity of the people, to charge that such arrests are unheard-of acts of despotism and greater usurpations of power than Kings dare exercise, when it is so well known that such arrests were made at New Orleans by JACKSON, and for which he received the plaudits of his Government. General WILKINSON made them at the time of BURR'S conspiracy, and his action was approved by Mr. JEFFERSON, who said: "On great occasions, every good officer must be ready to risk himself in going beyond the strict line of the law, when the public preservation requires it. His motives will bo a justification, as far as thero is any discretion in his ultra-legal proceedings, and no indulgence of private feelings. Your sending here SWARTWONT aud BOLLMAN, and adding to thom BURR, BLANNKIUIASSET, and TYLER, should they fall into your hands,,will bo supported by the public opinion. Tho Feds, and tho little band of Quids, in oppo sition, will try to make something of the infringement of liberty b/ military at rests and deportation of citizens but if it does not GO beyond such offenders as SWABTWOUT, BALLMAN, BDRR, BLANNKRIIASSET, TYLER, &c., they will be supported by the public approbation."

And these arrests by JACKSON and WILKINSONSON were made at a time when the public danger was to ours now as the sum* mer breeze to the sweep of the hnrricane.— And yet with all these examples and precc dents in plain view, and when it is known by almost every one, that from the conspiracy of CATALINK to the rebellion of DORR, in every ^civilized government under the heavens, these arrests havo been made for the "public safety/' wo are told that President LINCOLN in making similar arrests, usurps powers greater than the King in England dare exercise, and imposes an arbitrary Turkish process of millitary despotism upon innocent people.

In this mattor of making arrests President LINCOLN, has not gone further than did WASHIKGTON, JEFFERSON, JAPRSON, MONROE and WILKINSON, witli others, all of whom were the best patriots of our history. Mr. LINCOLN but -allowed in tho footsteps of the illustrious leaders of the onse patriotic and proud Democratic party. But his assailants refuse to take cognizance of precedents in his favor no matter how high their source. They are content with denouncing him as a usurper and despot. They are content with performing thoir assigned part in the infernal drama. And in the INFERNO of some future DANTE who dial! trace the spirits of those •who are the architects of onr misfortunes, the infernal limner will paint in foreground upon his canvass of mingled fire, blood, and tears, among the chiefs of this rebellion, those who promissed them in the North, to play their part in the conspiracy, and whose treachery to their country at last made the hellish promise good.

A DOCUMENT FOR THE TIMES.

Letter Irom Thomas Jeflersatt to J. B. Calvin on the Lavs ol Necessity iu Times ol Pubije Danger.

The Wheeling Intelligencer hae been furnished by Gen. Wheat, the Attorney General of Virginia with the following letter, whichhe has recently found in Vol. 5th, pp. 542 3 4 of Thomas Jefferson's works. Up to this time it seems to lave escaped the netice of public writers. It is strikingly applicable to the present condition of the country, and shows what the author of the Declaration of Independence and one of the fathers of the Republic, thought to be the duty of a President in times of insurrection and public

MONTICELLO, September 20.

Sra: Your favor of the 14th has been duly received, and I have to thank you for the many obliging things respecting myself which are said in it. I( I have left in the breasts of my fellow-citizens a sentiment of satisfaction with my conduct in the trans* action of their business, it will soften the pillow of my repose through the residue of my life.

The question you propose, whether circum stances do not sometimes occur, which make it a duty in officer of high trust, to assume authorities beyond the law,, is easy of solution in principle, but sometimes embarrassing in practice. A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-pre-servation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligations. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose itself, with life, liberty, prosperity and all those who are enjoying them with us thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means. When, in the battle of German town, Gen. Washington's army was annoyed from Chew's house, he did not hesitate to plant his cannon against it, although the property of a citizen. When he besieged Yorktown, he leveled the suburbs, feeling that the laws of property must be postponed to the safety of the nation. While the army was before York, the Governor of Virginia took horses, carriages, provisions, aud, even men, by force, to enable that army to stay together till it could master the public enemy, and ho

was

justified. A ship at sea^in distress

for provisions meets another having abundance, yet refusing to supply the law of selfpreservation authorizes the distressed to take a supply by force. In all these cases the unwritten laws of necessity, of self-preserva-tion, and of tho public safety, control the unwritten laws of meum and teum.

Further to exemplify the principle, I will state an hypothetical case. Suppose it had been made known to the Executive of the Union, in the autumn of 1805, that we might have the Flor'das for a reasonable sum that that sum had not been so appropriated by law, but that Congress were to meet within three weeks, and might appropropriate it on the first or second day of their session. Ought he, for so great an advantage to his country, to havo risked himself by transcending the law and making the purchase? The ptiblic advantage offered, in tho supposed case, was, indeed immense but &. reverence for law, and the probability that the advantage might still be legally accomplished by a delay of only three weeks were powerful reasons against hazarding the act. But suppose it forseeu that a John Randolph would find means to protract the proceedings on it by Congress until the ensuing spring, by which time new circupistances would change the mind of the other party. Ought the Executive, in that case, and with that foreknowledge, to have secured tho good to his country, and to have trusted to their justice lor the transgression of the law? I think he ought, and that the act wpuld havo been approved. After the affair of the Chesapeake, we thought war a very possible result. Our magazines wero illy provided with some necessary articles, nor had any appropriations been made for their purchase. We ventured, however, to provide them, and to place our country in safety and stating the case to Congress, they sanctioned the act. To proceed to the conspiracy of Burr, and particularly to General Wilkinson's situation in New Orleans. In judging tho ease, we are bound to consider the state of the information, correct and incorrect, which he then possessed. Ho expected Burr and his band from above, a British fleet from below, and he knew thero was a formidable conspiracy within the city.— Under these circumstances, was he justifiable, 1st. In seizing notorious conspirators? On this thero can be but two opin-

one, of the guilty and their accomplithe other, that of all honest men. 2d.

10ns ces^ In sending them to the seat of government when the written law gave them a right to trial in the territory? The danger of their rescue, of their continuing their machinations, the tardiness and weak ness patronage known disposition of tl expectation of the enei city, and of the Union itself, which would have been convulsed to its cen^r, had that conspiracy success all theso constituted a law of necessity and self-preservation, and rendered to the salus populi supreme over the written law. Tho officer who is called to act on this superior ground, does indeed risk himself on the justice of the controlling pew ets of the Constitution, and his station makes it his duty to incur that risk But those controlling powers, and hit fellow-citizens generally, are bound to judge according to the circumstances under whichjhe acted. They were not to transfer the information of this place or moment to the time aud place of his action but to put himself into bis situation. We knew here that there never was danger of a British fleet from below, and that Burr's band was crushed before it reached tho Mississippi. But Gen. Wilkinson's information was very differont, and ho could act on no other. From these examples and principles you may see what I think on the question proposed. They [do not go to tho caso of persons charged with petty duties, where consequences aro trilling, and time allowed for a legal course, nor to authorizo them to tako such cases out of the written law.— In these, the example of overleaping the

of the law apathy of the j^ges, acitive ^btematic

nage of the whole tribe ot lawyers, un-,^ .^

juries, an houyte salvation of the

law is of greater evil than a strict adnerence

I have indulged freer views on this question, 011 your assurances (that they are for your own eye only, and ^that they will not get into the hands of nows writers. I mot their scurrilities without concern, while in pursuit of the great interests with which I was charged. But in my present retirement, no duty forbids my wish for quiet.

Accept the assurauces of my esteem and

respect. THOMAS JEFFERSON.

THE FAST DAY—A paper was put in circulation on Saturday last asking business men to close their stores and shops on Thursday next in observance of the President's Proclamation for the observance of thnt day as a day of National Fasting and Prayer. We are pleased to see the unanimity which all comply with the request, not a single merchant, so far &s we learned having refused to sign the paper. This is right and proper. Aside from the fact that all should unite on that day iu its proper observance, it is unjust in a financial view, that whilst a portion of the community close their places of business, others with shutters down and doors wide open, are plying the arts of trade. Let all kind of business be suspended, and for the entire day.

The Charleston Courier impressses

its readers with the importance of producing something to eat, in the following aphoristical utterance: "One grain if corn in the earth is as a bullet in theheart of a Yankee and a ridge of potatoes is worth any mile of breastworks from Vicksburg to the Rappahannock.

Corn and potatoes will doubtless make a good fight, but we prefer planting cannon.

MUBFREI**ORO,TRN5.,) April 18,1863. $

a it Your dear and much

esteemed letter of the 13th inst., I received yesterday evening, for which I wonld exprees my heartfelt gratitude, because such a letter not only encourages us, but it creates fresh inspiration, it is wholesome food for heart and soul, to listen to such voices of the dear friends we left behind. A letter I received from Terre Haute sometime ago, of a former intimate friend of mine was of quite a different nature, it was not a letter but one continued bawling Bhriek as follows: 'It will not avail us anything to have gone to war it is unnecessary to play soldier any longer so many battles have been fought, and no prospect for peace yetj the Administation is considered a failure, and people are becoming dissatisfied with it Old Abe makes one blunder after another there is his proclamation his craving for emancipation, his conscription, etc., etc." You don't know my dear friend how great a favor these friends would bestow upon us poor soldiers, if they would dispense with their prattle and nonsense in their letters it is only adding fuel to the flames. It is a downright shamo to hear of such men (if they can be called men, for they aie nothing but cowards) the cry for mercy. We soldiers frequently wish to go home in ordor to clean out the copperheads and Butternuts (Oht what miserable creatures!) I do believe that they will some day feel the vengeance of tho soldiers yet. The best way however to convert theso cowards would be to compol them to undergo I the hardships we have endured for nearly two years, for two months only, and their personal participation in a battle like that of

Shiloh or that of Stone River would certainly produce a radical cure. But enough of this. I hope and trust that every German American citizen will take the part of the just and great cause of the Union party, and that he will contribute as much as in his power, that the institutions of our blessed fatherland, may not bo destroyed, but cherished and maintained, so that, thousands of our ceuntrymen yet languishing under despots rule, may find a happy and peaceable homestead in this land of liberty. That God In his infinite mercy may soon crown our efforts with a triumphant victory over treason and injustice is my daily prayer. And my motto, my dear friend, is: With God for Liberty and our Union.

I have never regretted yet to have taken up arms for the support of this great and just cause, and I am perfectly willing to sacrifice my life, should it bo required to do so for the maintainnnce of our Union. With fortitude and joy I will endure all tho hardships for the term I have enlisted and longer, in order to save this Union. Wo shall succeed, and Wo must succeod do your duty at homo and we shall do ours in the field.

An Ohio Farmer in Illinois.., Michael L. Sullivan. Esq., for many years one of the largest and most devoted farmers of Ohio, whose broad acres stretched along the rich valley of the Sciota in sight of the dome of tho Capitol, is ndw tho leading farmer of the Northwest. Some years ago he sold bis valuable lands in Franklinton, and reinvested in the then cheap, rich, vast and unsettled prairies of Illinois. Nine miles from Homer, on the Great Western Railroad, and seventeen miles from Tolono, on the Illinois Central, in Champaign county, ten years ago the magnificent farm Mr. Sullivan now cultivates was a dreary waste, and in its vicinity a solitude. He enterod, in 1853, more than 20,000 acres, expendod $100,000 in permanent improvements, and now farms rising 9,000 acres. The remainder is under fence, and will in time bo farmed. Mr. Sullivan has 40,000 additional acres in the county adjoining Champaign, but unimprfrWBd. :i

AJJorrespondent of tho Chicago Journal who^has recently been taking notes of the

farming

daily

operations of Mr. Sulli-

gh()W a clear

of $80,000. Tho writer

profit last year says: Every '6xpo&so of improvement or labor is

and carefully entered, and his books

are

One statement will startle the credulity of most men, even farmers—that 1,800 acres of corn were cultivated last year by 1,500 days' manual labor. His books show this fact— and more. Every dfty's work of oxen, horses or mules on the farm, are there carefully and accurately recorded. His blacksmiths, dairymen, gardeners, fruiterers, butchers, &c., each have separate accounts, and he can tell you tho cost to a tenth of a dime, of the raising of corn, or tho cost of hay, clover, timothy seed, &c., &c. He expected, last year, to have cut 3,000 tons of hay {not wild hay), but tho season was unpropitioUs, and, topping the timothy with machinery, sent to market 3,000 bushels of timothy seed this winter and spring, selling most of it at $2,50 per bushel. He cut 1,000 tons of timothy hay. This morning I received news of the arrival of 3,000 mules

More Ontragos by Rebels. A letter, we learn, has been received in this city, from an entirely reliable source, stating that the rebel guerrillas in Wayne County have seized and sent South, Senator Buster and Mr. Ingraham, clerk of the Wayne County court.

It is high time that these outrages were being punished in some proper way. We hope that General Burnside will take imme diate steps to protect those down trodden, persecuted people of the border and mountain counties. Our remedy for these wanton outrages upon private citizens is this:— "Whenever a Union citizen is seized by rebel guerrilla• and carried South, let our authorities selste at least teu rebel sympathisers and send them South to keep him company, or hold them in custody as hostages for the safe return of the Union citizen."— Frankfort Commonwealth."

The Copperheads held a meeting at the 4th Ward Engine House on Saturday evening D. W. Voorhees, M. C„ alias the T!gcr of the We3t alias the Buck of the 19th century, was chairman and principal gpeaker. From all accounts there were some rich scenes there. O'Riley entered the house when Daniel was speaking, when that distinguished individual turned his attention to O Riley, accusing him of having deserted the "democratic party." O'Riley gave him the lio pretty flatly when Daniel caved. The editor of the News Sheet followed in one of his heavy speeches.

After the speaking a few of them, with Daniel, adjourned te the Union Saloon, when they told him how much they loved him and then lie told them how much he loved them, when Daniel offered "a vigorous prosecution of the war, but not to free negroes," when father Bruin offered the health of Mr. Voorhees, the Senator from Indiana, and then they scattered.

MR. EOITOR: Tho News Sheet of last Saturday contains tho following remarkably suggestive paragraph

We Euggest to our Democratic friendn the propriety of getting up a donation party for tho benefit of the wives and families ot' soldiers in the field. Will they not do it? Let us hear from somo of you on tlie subject.

Nobody but Cookerly wonld have conceived such cn idea. \Y hat A donation party among tho democracy—the butternut democracy—for the families of the soldiers in the field Why, what's the matter with Cookerly ?—on a spree, crazy, or is he in one of his ways His friends had better look after him beforo he does something desperate. "But hold on,''—he only suggasts the PROPRIETY of their doing something for the soldiers families. Well, that's not so bad, after all tho propriety is the question to be considered and of course will be taken under advisement. Two years has elapsed since our soldiers left their families and their homes, and if that wing of the Democracy that Cookerly refers .to has ever done anything for the families, it has not found the light. Some fifteen or eighteen months since, certain individuals in this place mado great demonstrations on paper, subscribed largely, got their names in the newspapers as subscribing largely got up an opposition Sanitary or Relief Committee —it was all on paper, not a dollar ever paid that was subscribed—no report ever made and was regular fizzle. O, what patriotic demonstrations Cookerly, could you not get the Committee to report? But a friend suggests that the friends of the Democratic Relief Committee spent all ideans and sympathy for their Southern brethern, the rebel prisoners about that time quartered in the warehouse on first street, and had nothing left for the soldiers' family, from that time to tho present. How is it Cookerly, is that so? ENQUIRER.

P. S. As there is an election coming off soon you would do well to get up a demonstration for the soldiers' families. Call it Union. One of your candidates has had experience in presiding at Union meetings.

In one of your

Editor of Express—Sxa

letter from Sergeant-

Brown giving some jpoiofcin a speech, delivered at Soilivan, Hr a night meeting, by D. Voorbees, M. C. which from his position, and the solemnity of the present crisis, calls for serious notice.

There having been "no formal announcement" of his "intended arrival or his intention to speak" and that the extreme portions of the county were fully represented" notwithstanding the night was dark, and tho appearancee of the weather impropitioua—is prima facie evidence, that this was a clandestine assemblage, "roped iu" by leaders, for the purpose of still further inflamiug public prejudice, against loyal citizens, and to pre-, paring tho public mind for popular outbreak, against the Constitutional authorities and laws of the land.

That this was essential to their cause, I A»H not dispute. Tho suppression of the late outbreaks, are well calculated to cause men to examine, think and act for themselves. This would expedito the downfall of treason and traitors among us.

With that subtlety and pretense of gratitude ever resorted to by demagogues when intending to produce false impressions and arouse vicious influences, Mr. Voorhees in the outset "assured his friends that he did not come to Sullivan for the purpose of ad dressing them on the exciting topics of the day, but more particularly to spend a few days with those to whom he owed so much for past favors."

Aiter this protestation, Voorhees, in the progress of his speech, said, "Lincoln, with his legions of followers, were nothing but the MURDERERS of our Southern brethren."— Thus assailing tho constitutional President, his loyal cabinet, our army and navy, comprising a million of our patriotic citizens, in whose veins tho best blcod of this or any nation, many of whom have sacrificed their lives on the altar of our country, in defense of the Democratic government, bequeathed us by the fathers, in trust, to be handed down unimpaired to our posterity and to untold millions of theirs. Yet that audience did not frown upon him with such a frown as would have congealed the traitorous heart that conceived, aHd palsied the lying tongue that uttered this hell-deserving slander upon the dead as well as the living defenders of of our State and nation.

Voorhees may 'well felicitate himself upon his absenco from that meeting of loyal fathers, kindred and friends of tho patriotic men who compose the thirteen patriotic companies sent forth from Old Sullivan, to drive back his "Southern brethren," the usurpers, with their legions of servile minions and conscripts, who havo been murdering our loyal brethren of the South, and are now striving to wade through their blood, and the blood of our loyal defenders, to unite with their fellow-conspiratora here, in murdering the loyal men, and devastating our country as they have already done tho bright homes of the Sunny South.

That to aid them in this, is atldast Voorhees' design—ho forestalls tho necessity of proof by providing it himself. He instructs his hearers how to do it, by ingeniously relating how it was done in ancient times. During a rebellion, he says, "tho authorities thought they had the better of the insurgents —but the people were divided—they SECRETLY organized in every county and township and a simultaneous blow was struck, and down went the throne."

Aud, he carefulty guards against any inference being drawn by his hearers, that iu this caso the principle is reversed. That by striking this "simultaneous blow" they would aid the usurpers in tearing down the Domoc racy of this '^Union, aud establishing a "throne." Tells thom I10 "would not, if he could, preserve the Union, outside of the Constitution," but never says to them his "brethren" openly declare they have waged this war for tho destruction of tho Constitution, and to establish a government upon human slavery, in which the few shall rule and the many obey, and Complexion be no distinction as to that human servitude.

We may under present circumstances, truly feel alarmed about the enforcement of the laws of the Union, which he called arbitrary arrests," and said it was time they were stopped—that the people would suffer them no longer. And be "aware that a man occupying the position lie docs" was liable to be singled out, and when arbitrary arrests were made, such men were generally tho victims." He has good cause to foar that justice will overtake such uttercrs of treason against God and our count'y. He says so long as he "lives ho will continue to denounce the muzzlers of the presa and the freedom of speech." He only denounces thoso who si lencc presses and tongue-' devoted tho utterances of treason and slander against tho constitutional government and its brave defend

he defends destroyers of tho press

—the votaries of the liberty of speech, who havo been murdered by thousands in the South for their devotion to theso Constitutional rights. These blood stained tj'rants he calls "brethren," aud hugs them to his traitorous heart, while instilling into the minds of his hearers that the laws of the Union, indispensable to repel this invasion of tho conscript armies of the usurpers, are unconstitutional, and inciting them secretly to be activo in preparations to strike a "simultaneous blow" against them, therby raising murderous rebellion in our midst, by the slaughter of their loyal neighbors, friends and kindred.

As to Mr. Voorhees, personally, I know him not could not recognize him were I to meet him in tho street. Have no personal grudge or vindictive feeling to appease. But tho slanderous and treasonable sentiments above noticed, uttered at tlie present crisis, come homo to the interests of every man, and should call down the indignation of all.

In vain does Mr. Voorhees urge that this infamous rebellion was excited by some of the Free States. All history gives the lie direct to such charges, as he aud his fellow conspirators have succeeded in forcing upon the uninformed, credulous, and too confiding, under tho false garb of Democracy. True Democrats will always aid in putting dowu thoso who rebel against the will of the people, constitutionally expressed at the bal-lot-box. Those who deceive their fellowcitizens a» he has labored to do, and is laboring to do, cannot oscape ultimate detection and with all tho blood that now stains their gnilty souls should speedily bo brought to legal punishment. So long as our Gov. eminent let such men escape, and arrest, and punish their dupes, so long will the hopes of rebels bo kept up, the war continued, men induced to desert, officers and men employed for their arrest be murdered, mobs instituted for the defense of these mur-. derers, and the individuals engaged in these mobs, who are instruments in the hands of leading traitors, be punished. These reptile leaders are the prime movers—they commit theao crimes by proxy. Our official blows should be struck at tho head. Then, and not till then, will the rebellion go down, the head of the serpent be crushed, and the whole body die. J. W.OSBORN.

(icncrnl Order No. 9. Headquarters District of Indiana,) Department of tho Ohio, Indianapolis, Ind., April 25,1863.) In assuming command of the District of Indiana, the General commanding deems it advisable and proper to issuo the following order, to the end that all may be advised of the principles which will govern his action

I. He has ne promotions to issue, nor policy to adopt. That has already been doue, and in his judgement well done, by the Commanding General of this Department. He has no partizan feelings or interests he intends to advance, but desires to confer freely and fully with the prominent men of all political parties, and invokes their hearty cooporationin all measures calculated to restore harmony and good feeling in the Stato. He neither claims any right to interfero with civil matters in the State, nor has any desire to do so.

II. Tho Commanding General is charged with tho duty of carrying into effect tho previsions of General Order No. 38, recently issued by Major General Burnside Ho purposes doing so. Unmistakable evidence has reached him that the nrovisions of this order havo been, aud are being violated in various instances by well meaning men, who are led astray by newspapers and public spoakers.— These latter will therefore bo held to the moat rigid accountability. Thero is no use» in trying to dry tho stroam while its fountains aro ailowed to flow.

All newspapers or public speakers that counsel or encourage resistance to the Conscription act, or any other law of Congrss passed as a war measure, or that endeavor to bring the war policy of the Government into dhrepntete, will bo considered as having violated tho erder above alluded to and treated accordingly. Tho country will have to be saved or lost during the time that this Administration remains in power and therefore ho who is factiously opposed to the war policy of the Administration, is as much opposed to his Government.

III. The Commanding General indulges tlie hope that all citizens of the State will -ee the propriety and necessity of the observance of this Order, and as they regard the interests and welfare of the State and Nation, givo him no occasion to take action on aocount of

itA

violation.
