Thank God, traitors love not the Stars and Stripes. No sooner does a party become fipe for treason, than it hauls down the old flag of our Union, and runs up its traitorous rag io opposition to it. So did the rebels in 1860, At first their flag was the white flag to indioate, as Currie of Alabama expressed it^tjhe bloodless nature of the revolution they bad aocompli&bed (under Buohannan's administration.) When thgy suspected some fighting might after all reBult from t&eir "peaceful secession,'' they adopted a aeu device—the Palmetto flag, or the rattlesnake coiled around the palm—expressive of the copperhead party clinging to the South. At laBt they adopted tho "stars and bars." The copperheads have thrown off the mask—laid

aside

the national emblem—and adupted the first design of the rebels—the white flag that which thoy used to represent peaceful secession, and which thoir Northern friends \iow use to ropresent "peaceful disunion myth and falsehood more bloody and deceptive even than pcacoful secession. Tho

DISCLOSURES

Special Correspondence ef the Cincinnati Gazette. INDIANAPOMS, August 19. Facts just come to light put a new face on the ^.adrees of the State Oentral Committee of the .Democratic party. Its session of tiro daye and nights was onfe of perplexity and perii. On the one hand was the defection of the Peace wing of the party from its non-committal nominees, which hsd assumed such alarming proportions that tho secret Order proposed revolution at once. There were present at that meeting of the

Committee such Congressmen as Voorhees, who, more than a year ago, proposed to settle the issue between bis friends and the Government by the sword. Joseph K. Edgerton, of the Fort Wayne District, was also with the Committee. On the 6th of June 1863 he denounced tho Burnside and Hascall policy in Ohio and Indiana and said: "The end of these acts of despotism must come, either by Mr.

Lincoln's administration wholly

abandoning them,or by their resistance by the people even unto death." Such were the men who mot to squelch the scheme for revolution planned bythe Sons of Liberty,who fixed the 16th of this month for seizing Gov. Morton and other officials, getting possession of the arsenals, liberating rebel prisoners, establishing a provisional government and thus arraying tho Northwest in rebellion

Bingham of the Sentinel, and Ristine, State Auditor were cadled up before the Committee and admitted they belonged to the Order, but were not in its inner circle, and did not know of the plot.

McDonald returned from the North on Saturday. He met the Committee, and H. H. Dodd and J. C. Walker, State Agents at New York, were called before them. At first they were defiant, but admitted that revolution had been planned. Athon waw to be Provisional Governor. The order was to strike, at the same time, at Columbus and Cincinnati, Ohio, and Chicago, Illinois. That they had recently met Sanders and Holcombe at Clifton, Canada, and agreed on this plot. McDonald asked Dodd: "How many troops do you think there are about Indianapolis?" He answered: "Only a few invalids and veterans." "There tie enough," said McDonald, "to whip you and clean out your whole Order in the State.

McDonald and others of tho Committee protested against revolution now as madness and prevailed on Dodd te sent a secret circular, by virtue of his authority as Grand Commander, ordering the various Lodges to desist from revolution now. The circular was sent, and the Kith passed off without the revolution planned by the order.

This revelation throws new light on the advice of the State Central Committee to the Copperheads to form open armed organizations, and proves that the whole intent is to put, in the name of law,arms in tha hands of the Democrats, and then make thom al lies of the secre^order in the revolution which has been postponed for a more convenient opportunity. Meantime, these Copperheads will strive for a provocation for civil war.

Right in the face of McDonald's knowledge of the existence of this Secret Order, and its intended revolution, which at his demand is postponed, he asserts in public that he knows nothing abont it.

The disclosure also proves the pence mission of Sanders & Co. ft sham, whoso solo object in their stay at Clifton, was to arrange for rebellion in the Northwest.^

I also learn on undoubted authority that one of the dolegates to the Chicago Convcn tion, from the Eighth District, a peace man states that terms of peace from the rebel Government wil bo submitted to that Convention. ,.

McDonald's charge that the 11st Indiana took millitary possession of the polls in this city in October, 1S62, i3 false. 1 ho ment was not in tho city, but was furloughod borne to vote.

For the sako of giving color to Ihe charge that, there was no freedom ot election here, the Democracy have let the alection go by default. They knew they would be beaten and so staid away to enter tiio plea of liaud and force as a justification for revolution.

Reply to Hon. 1. W. Voorhees.

liiniANAPOUS, IND., August 16, 1864. Hon, D. W. Voorhees, Member S, Con* greasl Tcrre Haute, Ind.:

I have received from you a copy of your

letter to Colonel R.W. Thompson, Provost Marshal, and bis reply The following la

conic note accompanies them: General Carrinpton: "As you published the falsehood in the newspapers, shall expect you to correct it,

as Colonel Thompson has done. "D. W. VOORHEES." Your assumption is groundless. Your name is not mentioned in my report: neither have I published anything about you whatever. But you insist upon my answering yoornoto to Colonel Thompson. The points you make are: 1st. That the ofliee in which it is said the?o papors wero found had not been occupied by you, or by any ono connected with you, or been in any way under your control since last November." 2d. You "desiro to ascertain whether the circumstances connocted withthb discovery of those papers in that office, leads to the supposition that you placed them there, or was aware of their existence."

You desire this that the people may know tho truth, and not that you attach any particular importanc to the documents."

The papers referred to are 112 copies of the Ritual of the «». A. K., a treasonable order. aiming at the overthrow of the Government of the United States, of which Congress you are a member.

The gentlemen who found "these papers" told me they were found in your offico. The following are "some of the circumstances" that led me to suppose they wera correct in the supposition: Your law library and office furniture wero in the office where "those papers" wero found. You had dedeclined a re-nomination for Congress, and tho office was reported nor for rent, as late as April, 1864 The Ritual had been issued in tho autumn of 1863. Your Congressional Documents were in the office where these "papers" were found. Your speeches, up to March, of your entire Congressional career, with the "John Brown" Hpeech, were in the office where "these papers" were found.

Tho correspondence of Senator Waif, of New Jersey, under his frank, enclosing a proposition furnish you with (90,000,) twenty thousand stand of Garibaldi rifles, just imported, "for which he could vouch," was in the office where "these papers" were found.

The correspondence of C. L. Yallandigham, from Windsor, C. W., assuring you "our people will fight," and that "he |is ready" and fixing a point on "tho Lima Road'' at which "to meet you," was in the offico where "these papers" were found.

The correspendence of Joseph Ristine, Auditor of State, declaring that "he would like to see all Democrats unite in a bold and open resistance to ail attempts to keep ours a united people by force of steel." and that '**tbis was a war ng&iuat the Democracy, and our only hope was the successful resistance of tbe South" was in the office where "these papers" wer» found.

Tbe correspondence of E. C. Hibben, who Miores you that "the Democracy are fast

^pmsgmm* ~m

stiffening up—when ihia war is to benpenly declared aa being waged for the pnrpase of freoing the negro—which will arouse another section of the country to arms," and declare ing "that Lincoln bayonets are shouldered for cold- blooded murder," was in the ofliee where "Uiese'papem" were:found.

Tbo rOrreep&ttdeoiee of S\ Hardeaty. who "wants you to have that hundred thousand (100 000) men ready,as we do not know how soon we will need them," was in the qffice where "these papers" were found. i.

The correspondence of J. J. Bingham, who asks yeu, "it you thmk tbe Soath have resources enough to keep the Union forces bay," and says that "you must have resources of information which he has not," was in the office where "these papers" were found.

Tbe correspondence of John'G. Davis, informing you that a certain New York journal "is wonderfully exorcised about secret antiwar movements, and tremble in their boots in view of the terrible reaction which is sure to await them" was in the office where "these papers" were found.

Tbe correspondence of W. S. Walker,who "keeps out of the way because they are trying to arreBt him for officiating in secret societies," enclosing the oath of K. G. C's prior to that of the O. A. K., was in the office where "these papers" were found.

The petition to C. L. Vallandigtiam, D. W. Voorhees and Benjamin Wood, in favor of two Republics and an United South, was in the loffice where "these papers" were found.

The correspondence of Campbell, who says the "Democracy were once not afraid to let their purposes out to daylight," but "BOW it is deemed best to work in secret,and asking your counsel," was in the office where "these papers" were fonnd,

The correspondence of E. Etheridge, Clerk of the House of Representatives, giv« ing official notice that "your credentials as members of the 38fh Congress have been received^and filed in the proper office," and for you "to come on," was in the office where "these papers" were found.

The correspondence of George H. Pendleton which states Etheridge's plan to organize Congress, viz: "to elect himself Clerk and Cox Speaker," though he (Pendleton) "will not faciliate the re-nomination of any man as clerk, whose programme is for his defeat as speaker, suggesting to you to have it whispered in the ear of Etheridge, to reciprocate favors and opposition," and "do this authoritatively, but not as from him, &c," was in the office whero "these papers wero found.

The correspondence of J. E. McDonald, who had an interview with Perkins, "on one of his (Perkins's lucid intervals," with regard to "the discovery of the northwest pas sage," by Perkins, for which he claimed the credit &c., &c., was in the effice where "these papers" were found.

And so of B. W. Hanna, who wants a good place in tha regular army, and so of W. J. Pierce who "will show tho beasts that Lincolu has turned out, to be a monster in 1864," and so of Bigger, and Dovelin and Dodd &c., &c., whoso said correspondence was in the office where "theso papers" were found.

These are some of "the circumstances that led me to believe that "these papers" —tho ritual of tho O. A. K—wero found in your offico.

I looked upon these circumstances as a plain juror might be supposed to do, and not as a statesman, and innocently supposed that such papers as these, if spared from the fire, would be iu the possession of the owner, and that the offioe of the owner would bo the place where these papers were found.

And yet, with Colonel Thompson,! cheerfully accept your deuial, and so respond, as you request, "that the people may know the truth

DKA& SIB: Your letter, with one ei lclosed about rifles has been received. If tl »e parties wish to bny them, the best way would be for them to have some one in New York appointed to purchase them and confer with you and me.

I am satisfied that it is the very article they want, aod as you know all about them, you can "9peak by the card.' You have seen the articles tried and DO doubt are well satisfied that it will speak londly iu a good cause.

We will sell them in boBd for $14, and I have rio^ donbt that if the proper coarse is pursued, the duty can be remitted. The rifles are better and cheaper than anything ever offered in this country, or made here, and as good as eny ever imported. We challeage a comparison with any rifle execution whatever.

There are about twenty thousand rifles, and we desire to sell them all at once. They are a great bargain, and are worth to-day more in Europe than we offer to sell them for here.

The price of fire arms will advance within a year at least 33 per cent, as arms are in demand all over Europe. As you know, there is no more effective'arms in the world than this.

I should like your private opinion as to the prospects of affairs so that I may have some basis to go upon. Do you think the 3ontn have resources enough to keep the Union forces at bay, and finally force a recognition of their independence, or will Lincoln's army crush them out? You must have sources of information which I have not to enable you to form some opinion upon these matters.

If the Congressional Globe is published and bound I should be obliged to yon for a set, or any other public documents of general interest.

Jos Ristine to Han Voorhees. THE DEMOCRACY OF THE NORTH

FPLATED

OUT,'

UNLESS THE SOUTH SECEDE. COVINGTON, June 20, 1861. EIEAE DANIEL: YOU are soon to assume a position which is fraugfctwith untold responsibilities. I regard the fate of hundreds of thousands of lives of freemen, and the consequent misery entailed, dependent upon the action of the ensuing called session of Oongress. I confess I fear its action. The more look at the movements of this Administration, the more I become satisfied that this Government, under the form it has hitherto existed, is of the things that were. The movements at Baltimore and St. Louis, on the part of the military, satisfy me that an attempt will be made to place the whole country under military rule, that all tbe means of the Government will be employed to arm the minious of the Administration, and to disarm all opponents that an absolute reign of terror will be inaugurated and when the means of resistance of the masses are removed a military despotism will rule until al the State Rights under their constitutional organizations shall have been abolished and a monarchy absolute or limited established. The men receiving position at the hands of Mr. Lincoln and the Republican Governors of the North are not the characters ta whom I would like to trust my dearest rights. They are tbe men whose lust for power would soon overlook all else than their own agrandizement.

The successful resistance of the South I regard as the only safety for us of the North —should she be overwhelmned woe betides us who have dared to oppose the policy of this administration.

Daniel—a Democrat of the North who dares to oppose the policy of tho present leaders is aa much hated as those of the

South

and I look upon this war as much and more a war upon tho Democracy than anything else.

This Government could never be subverted under Democratic rule, and every appeal is now being made to this patriotism of our people to sustain the Constitution, the Union and the Stars and Stripes, while the Constitution, the laws and the rights of the citizen are being ruthlessly trampled under foot.— In the position you are soon to occupy, I would by no means counsel withholding the necessary supplies for the army, but I would like to see all Democrats unite in an open and bold resistance to all attempts to keep ours a united paople by the force of steel.— If the wisdom of our fathers, aided by our own experience, cannot keep us united it is idle to talk of maintaining the Union. A State forced to obedience at the point of the bayonet, I regard as much and more a subversion of the Government than secession itself, hence I see nothing but dissolution, and humanity, justioe and common sense to my mind dictates a peaceable separation.

I have no doubt worried you, and shall close by hoping that some Moses may arise to extricate us from our woes, th««t your mission may be a pleasant one, that you may return to your constituents and friends as did Noah's dove to the Ark, bearing emblems of peace to a distracted country.

My respects to Ed. and your family. God bless you, Daniel. Your friend, [Signed,] JOSEPH RISTINE. P. S —Much less excitement here, but little said. Men are beginning to talk of costs and consequences J. R.

INDIANAPOLIS, November 14, 1863.

Hon D. TV. Voorhees Dear FrieHd—Tour favor per Brown I received. I did all that could be doae for the boy, and that was to have him sent back to his company without b'6ing regarded as a deserter, until the Presidefit shall modify his proclamation suspending the writ of habeas corpus. If a woman should be sworn into the service, there is no power to discharge her but the War Department, and that never acts in any case where humanity makes the call.

As to Perkins, you will have learned from our mutual friend Dowling that we have had an interview with the Judge and, and found him enjoying a lucid interval, and fully aware of the hallucination under which he has lately been laboring, but I don't see just how he can right himself. I think he will be permanently cured of his insanity in time but it may take time.

Of course it is not necessary for me to say to you that I knew no more of the sentiments of his letter until I saw it in tbe pub lie papers than you did. If be bad sent hh letter to me, and not the editor of the Sentinel, it would not have seen the light of day in that shape but he seemed to think he had discovered the northwest pas9sge, and wanted tbe whole benefit of tbe discovery and consequently he had to give this thing to the publie at once.

Who Commenced the War?

[From the Cincinnati Enquirer, april 23,1861.1 The Southern army commenced tbe attack upon Fort Sumter, and before any hostiledemonstration had been made upon them. They broke the status quo which has so long pre vailed, and upon them clearly rests the immediate responsibility for the bloody strife which has been inaugurated. They are the aggressors in first breaking the peace, and will receive the indignant condemnation of every patriot. Tbe onus of fanlt they can notshake off.

TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.

I'rom the Potomac Army.

IF HKADQUATKRS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,\ -M Aug. 12, Our losses at the Weldon Railroad on last Friday p. m., were greater than horetofore reported.

The number of prisoners taken by rebels were put down at 1000. It seems tbat our troops wore surprised, many of them being under their shelter tents at the time trying to escape a heavy rain that had been*falling several hours previous.

The rebels appeared abont noon on right of the road in front of 3d division 5th corps, but this was evidently feint, or for tbe pur pose of feeling our lines, about 3 o'clock m., they charged in heavy force between fifth and sixth corps, succeeding in turning flank of the former, and capturing a large number of prisoners.

Tbis part of our line was forced back some distance, when the 9th corps which had been relieved the night previous by part of the 2d corps came into the field, and opened a fire checking the advance of tbe rebels and taking a few prisoners, a heavy column of the rebels at the same time charged on left of our line west of the Railroad held by 2d division Gen. Ayers, which they breke, and thoyjjalso took 5 or 600 prisoners of the regular brigade which was commanded by Gen Hays who is believed to be a prison ar, as he cant be found. Our whole line wasthus forced back with heavy loss in killed and wounded.

The enemy nowever euffered worse than we In this particular His men were lying thick all over the field

Before dark our men were reformed and being reinforced. A desperate charge was made to recover our lost ground which was successfully aocomplished, so that we held at night the liBe which had been taken from us in the after noon.

Col. Earl is reported a prisoner, also Col. Hartshorn. Gen. Crawford was shot through vest and shirt, and narrowly escaping capture. Lieut. Clark, of his staff, was shot in tho arm.— Lieuts. Meade and Merrill, and Capt. Smith, of Gen. Crawford's staff, had their horses shot while carrying their riders and rallying the men of the various commands. The last named was a prisoner, but seeing a favorable chance, made his escape.

Capt. Doolittle, of Col Wheeler's staff, was ordered to surrender, when he, getting furious at an epithet applied to him, seized a musket and bayonetted tbe rebel against a tree.

Col. Wbetlock's Brigade 3d Division, was flanked, when they faced to the rear, charg ed and drove the rebels and took a number prisoners.

The entire number of prisoners captured by the U. S. forces is about 1,230 and some stands of colors.

Our loss is estimated at over 3,00(1 Nothing but skirmishing took place along the line to day. Both parties being busy entrenching themselves.

A battle is looked for at any moment, as the enemy seems determined to regain possession of the road, wbilo we are as deter mined to hold it.

The prisoners taken belong principally to Beauregard's and Hill's corps. AUGUST 21, 6 A. M.—Considerableartillary firing has been going on in our left since 4 o'clock, and is, at times, quite brisk.

No musketry can be heard, the distance from headquarters being too great, by various States have arrived. Massachus etts'got the first man and it was undestood she is getting them more rapidly than any other State.

The schooner Prince Albert in attempting to run into Charleston Harbor grounded oppposite Moultrie, our batteries opened heavi ly on her snd rapidly reduced her to a total wreck, her cargo consisted of medicines and other light arsiclcs, which was almost totally destroyed. She belonged to Richmond

On tho night of the 2d Capt. Reed and Lieut. Stevenson of Co. K. fth Ohio succeeded in escaping from Charleston where they were held as prisoners, and reach battery Gregg with safety. They say wherever they found negroes they were their friends'

Six hundred rebel prisoners are to be placed iu prison on Mortis Island, there being that number of ours in Charleston.

The rebels claim however that they are nearly in position for some other point. The Carolilan Mercury of I5th says non combattauts was to leave Mobile, and it was thought impossible for tbe garrison to hold out against Earragut.

WASHINGTON, Aug1 22.—It is reported in newspapers that the Sacretary of the Treas contemplates a new loan, the terms of whioh have not been decided on.

The time of the 166 Ohio Regiment, 100 days men haviDg expired, they, this afternoon, paid a visit to the President, who made them a speech in front of the Execu tive Mansion. He said:

I suppose you are going to see your families and friends. For the servioe you have done in this great struggle in which we are engaged, I present you my sincere thanks.— For myself and the country, I almost always feel inclined, when I happen to say anything to the soldiers, to impress upon them, in a few brief remarks, the importance of sue cess in this contest. It is not merely for today, but for all time to come, that we should perpetuate for our ehildren's children this great and free Government which we have eDjo^ed all our iives. 1 beg you to remember thiB, not merely for my sake, but for yours.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY POTOMAC, August 21. $

Early this morning the enemy made an attack on the 5th corps on left of the Weldon Railroad at some place where they were partially successful Friday, but to-day they met with a different reception, our line was formed about the same time, it was on that day, tho 1st division being on the extreme left, connecting with cavalry which covered tbe railroad towards Reams Station.

The 2d division was next to Cutler. The 4th division was across the railroad and the 3d division Crawfords, on the right joining with 9th corps which commanded the right with the left near Jerusalem Plank Road.

During Saturday our men had strengthenen their breastworks which they had temporarily crected besides throwing up others.

Early this morning very heavy cannonading was opened by tho enemy from their works further down toward^ Petersburg, and our guns replied very briskly, neither party,however, doing any particular damage.

Abouts 7 a. m., a force of the enemy were seen moving as if to make an attack on the 9th coaps bnt a few well directed shells sent them out of s:gbt.

Shortly after a column of rebels emerged from the woods on the left of the Railroad and forming in line charged on what they thought was our left flank but which proved to be tbe left of Gen. Ayers front.

The rebels advanced in fine order and with the utmost confidence evidently thinking the work before them easy, but what was their surprise on discovering a second line behind and extending to the left of the first, from which a row of bayonets glistened, with a battery on the ieft and one on the right, pouring a fire into their ranks at every discharge, causing large vacancies in their lines.

As aeon as they discovered tbe critical position in which they were placed, tbe entire line made signs to indicate their willingness to surrender, and the order to cease firing passedalong the earthworks, bnt as soon as tbey discovered this, a large portion broke and scattered for the woods.

Several messengers were sent after remaining party, many of whom fell. The troops who made this charge consisired of rebel division of Hoeker and Boshrod Johnson, of Gen. Hill's corps, and wero principally S. C. aod Mississippi troops.

&rmm

Oar I033 in killed and wonnded is abont 150, whOe nearly 100 were taken prisoners on skirmish line.

Rebel loss is believed to be at least 5 or 600 killed and wounded. The [tebel prisoners taken is about 375, besides 25 wounded who are in hospitals.

Gen. Hagood was in command of assaulting column, and shot Capt. Daley of Qen. Cutler's staff,

Gen. Haygood was seen to fall from his horse and is believed to be killed. His body lies between tho lines, and is covered by sharpshooters fronf both sides, so that neither party can get possession of it.

Prisoners also report him killed. We took five sets of colors and some say more. The 3d Delaware took 2 and the 16th New York 1. Three of the colors are entirely new, while the others are mnch delapidated.

In the fight of Friday our lass in prisoners is believed to be larger than heretofore reported.

The 90th Pennsylvania was more than half taken as was the case in fact with all the regiments of tbe command.

The 104th New York lost every officer on the field, and can muster but comparatively few men for duty. Had these troops held their positions, or changed their front, they could nearly all have saved themselves and given the enemy a sound thrashing, but being told thoy were flanked, they etarted for the rear and fell inte the trap of the ememy.

Col. Whetloekwith the 2d Brigade of the 3d Division, changed his front towards the rear, and forming in line of battle with skirmishers thrown out, advanced to see where the enemy was, and reached our 2d without losing a man of those who remained here while all who were left were captured. ThiB brigade brought in with them over 60 pjisoners and a stand of colors, besides re-taking many of our own men who were being taken away.

AUGUST 22 —Morning.—No further fighting has taken place since yesterday morning Skirmishing has been very brisk. During laBt night a great deal of artillery firing was heard. At this hour, 6 o'clock in the morning, all is quiet within sound of headquarters but another engagement may take place at any moment, aa the enemy will no give np the hope of gaining possession of the Railroad until they see the impossibility of it.

Our lines have been greatly strengthened within the last twenty-four hours, and should the enemy attack us tbey will fare even worse than they did yesterday.

Indian Troubles.

FT. KIERNEY, Aug. 23.—Maj. Gen. Curtis arrived here to-day to strrigbten up the Indian affair.

The overland stage company have removed a£l agents, stock and coaches to this post for proiection.

Tbe rebels were allowed to pass through gap left on our lines and suffered severely while their purpose was entire prostrated.^

He brought in one piece of artillery and 70 prisoners. He effectually destroyed the Railroad for two miles in vari- charge ons places.

A letter from Hagerstown on the 21st, says a detachment of the 'td Virginia Union cavalry Entered Martinsburg yesterday at 2 p.m., drove out the rebels. At the latest accounts the place was still held by our cavalry.

Gen. Averill holds the river fords, and is watcbiog tho movements of the rebel raiding parties.
