GREENE COUNTY MEETING.

The Wings of Greene county held public
anti-war meeting on the 18th May. We find
the proceedings in the Torch Light Of Thurs.
day. The meeting was large and highly re-
spectacle. 1t was addressed by Hon. R. c.
Schenck, in a speech of great spirit and ability.
We copy few of the resolutions, which the
Torch Light says were adopted separately, after
1--WE readings. gs.-Ha milton htelligencer.
Resolved, That such war of conquest, so
hateful in its object, so wanon, unjust and uncon-
stulionaI in its origin and character, against
humanity, against justice, against the Union,
against the Constitution, and against the free
States.
Resolved, That regard for the true interests
and the highest honor of the country, not less
than the impulses of Christian duty, should a.
rouse all good citizens 10 join in efforts 10 arrest
this war; and in every just way, aiding the un'
try to retire from the position of aggression which
il now occupies towards weak, distracted neigh
Dor and sister Republic.
Resolved, That the power Of Congress to with
hold supplies from the President for the purpose
of wagng war; is great constitutional guaran
lee of civil liberty; the only effective check upor
a wicked, ambitious and reckless President, The
exercises of which becomes an imperative duty
when necessary 10 arrest him in the prosecution
of an unholy, unjust and unnecessary war.
RESOLVED, That the course pursued by por
tion ofthe Wing members of Congress and Whie
editors of the country, in denouncing the war a;
having been unconsttutionally and unnecessari
ly commenced by the President, and as being
waged for wicked and unholy Purposes-end'
destructive 10 the best interests of the country
aud atthe same time sustaining and urging the
voting of men and money 10 the President fo
the purpose ofenabling him 10 continue the wal
for such objects, and defending the policy of Sc
doing on the miserable and contemplate plea o
holding the President responsible, was an aban
donment on their part, not only the surest anc
best guarantee Of civil liberty, of duty; and meet;
with our most unqualified disapProbation.
ResOlped, That the position taken by our Sen
ator, the Hon. Thomas Corwin, and our Repre-
sentative, Hon. R. c.. Schenck, and the Other
Whig members of Congress, who were with them
on the question of voting mon and money to con.
tinue the war, meets with our most haarly appro
val; and thai the great speech of Senator Corwir
on that subject, ''s,tuks our sentiments"
Rcsolped, That the integrity aud welfare o
the whole Union impSratively demand that Mex

ican territory should not be annexed 10 the Uni.
ted States.
Resolrsd, That we will not vote for any man
for President, who viii not frankly, openly, and
unequiyocally pledge himself against annexing
Mexican territory to the United States.
Resolred, That we hereby re-afhrm our ad-
herence and fidelity TO the great cardinal Wing
doctrine, that man should not be put forward as
candidate for President merely because he has
been successful as a military officer on the ba''le
field.
ResoIped, That the course pursuedby the Greene
County Torch Light on the war wuged against
Mexico, has been manly, fearless and bold-au
exhibition Of true paIrotism-and meets with oul
hearty approval.
On molion Of Isaac Srohm it was unan
mousy
Resolved, That without committing ourselves
to the unconditional support Of any man, we de
clare our preference for the Hon. THOMAS
CORWlN as the Presidential candidate of lht
Wings Of the Union and that we esteem him a
the man pre-eminenlly qualified 10 be the leade
of the freemen oflhis Republic.
On motion Of E. F. Drake, it was
Resolusd, That we hold it to be the impera
tive duty the people TO speak boldly their sen
limenIs on all questions affecting their interest
and welfare; and we call upon the Wings of Obi,
10 meet in their respective counties at The earies
possible day, 10 express their views upon the un
just, unnecessary and calamitous war in whcl
the country is involved.

We have not room 10 enumerate the appro-
priations of the war in detail, but in the aggre-
gaze the amount provided is but little short Of
FIFTY MILLIONS DOLLARS. The army bill alone,
Of the session just closed, aPproprlules but lrac-
ton short Of ofhirty-three millions Of dollars.
But il is not the expenditure of money. nor the
waste of time, which present the saddest features
in this war. The mountains and plains of Mex
leo are made red with the blood of our brave
men, and yet the chairman Of the committee on
Foreign Relations in the House of Representa-
tves in his last public speech, could give utter
ance to such a sentiment as this:
"War (said Mr.. lngersolD brought them (us)
at once to a state Of things which he regarded as
very fortunate; and though they heard great
deal about the mislouunes and caamities Of war,
which it was very easy 10 talk about TO the de-
light of all old women, yet he would like any one
to tell him what these calamlties were, for he had
not yet heard ofthem."
No, and though one rose from the dead you
could not hear. The Rnggolds, the Crosses,
the Pages, the Ridgleys, the Watsons, the Ham,
ers, the Grahams, the Morrises, have fallen in
your SERVICE with hundreds and hundreds OF
their brave followers, some of them the very
flower Of the American army, and yet the lead
ing man of the Administration, the mouth.plece
OF the Executive in regard TO this war, has heard
of no misfortune, Each side of the Rio Grande
is yard thicky slowed with two thousand
bodies of the American Dead and yet the chair
man of the committee on Foreign Relations
wrapped in the mantle Of his easy complacency
has heard of no calumity To the civilian re-
ceiving his eight dollars day, and his forty dol
lars for every hundred miles of travel and occu.
pying his time in writing fine essays, showing
how "uery fortunate" is war-disease and death,
and wounds, and exposure, and the vices Of the
camp, and widowhood and orphanage, and the
whole attending train of mseries that preccde
and follow battle and bloodshed, are only tales
delightful to all old women! They reach not the
ears of your cold,headed and caous-heared po-
litcians, who take care 10 put themselves beyond
the reach harm. Nor is it any thing 10 such
men that this war is costing more, by al least
thirty millions year, than all our sources Of
income, nor even worth a passing thought that
it threatens domestic discord, and in no respect
has the sanction or approval of the American
people.

SICKNESS OF Mn. WEBsrER.-We regret to
learn that Mr.. Webster will be unable TO carry
ou. his contemplated tour through the south and
west, in consequence of sudden indspositon, with
which he was seized ut Augusta, Georgia. The
Chronicle of that city says:-"The distress was
of the nature of aremitIant fever, the principal
attack, although violent, was short, but it has left
him very weak. He has not been able to leave
his room, nor scarcely his bed. MIR. Webster's
present purpose is to stay here until he is quite
recovered. He hopes then 10 get to Savannah
by the way of Waynesboro' and the Central road,
and from Savannah to Charleston, thence to New
York by the Soulherner. In authorizing us to
make this statement, Mr.. Webster desires us to
say that nothing but a lusl regard TO his health,
and the advice of eminent professional men,
could have induced him to interrupt his courss
