Senator Johnson I'm KENTUCKY,

Senator Andrew johnson, Of Tennessee,
was the recipient of signsl honors and atten-
ticns BY the Union men Of Kentucky, in his
progress through their State to Cincinnati,
On Tuesday and Wednesday. At many Of the
stations along the route there were crowds Of
people eager to see and applaud thar hero,
and wherever opportunity could be had they
were grstided with words Of encouragement
from him. His great speech ut Lexington,
Tuesday evening, was heard by several thou
sand people, by whom Its incorporating
ard unconditional Union sentiments wero
well received. at Covlngton, On Wednesday,
the citizens gave him warm reception, and
escorted him across the river to Cincinnati,
where he passed the afternoon, proceeding on
to Washington BY tho evening train. hr.
johnson was much impressed with the
depth snd earnestness' of these attentions
paid him In Kentucky; and tho Union msn
Themselves were not less encouraged by hiz
preaenco TO the performance Of their own 6lu:
ty IN the Congressional election Of Thurs
dsy.
Senator johnson denies that he has ever
corresponded with Amos A. Lawrence of Bos-
ton, and certainly that he never expected =
contribution Of money from him. Therefore
he knows nothing about the latter reported
to have been found In the mail bags at Rich
nond, Virginia, hnd 1t Is strongly believed
that the miscrsants hayo published their Own
shame in double SENSE II any such letter IS

Treason by Word OF Mouth.
Editors OF the Chicago Tribune:

~NAH+4
Just at this particular juncture in our na
hona1 affhirs, 1t becomes a question Of very
grave and interesting inquiry, rs to how far
men may 60 In their expressions Of opinion in
regard to their Bympathies for the south-in
their manifestations Of evident pleasure and
satisfaction at the success Of the Confederate
forces, together with their utterances Of op-
position and hostility to the General Govern
ment In It's struggle to maintain the supre-
macy Of the Constitution and the laws, with.
out involving Themselves In the quiet treason.
It's true, perhaps, that the time has not
fully arrived when men Of all classes and Of
all parties viii be obliged to arrange themselves
disttnctiyely on the one aide or the o!her of
this great question-when the mask will be
torn from every indlvidual-when allmen will
be required to enlist, fairly and squarely, un-
der: the honored and glorious "stars and
Stripes" or under that other emblem Of trear
Hon and revolt, beneath whose hated and dee+
picablc folds the enemies Of our government
are na1shaling their uaaddened, infuriated and
,pirsttcal forces. -
But, while 1t may bs true that the period
indicated above has not fully come, 1t Is true
that It is very near at: hand, and will soon be
upon us In its. fullest Significance. Then this
question, admitting no further delay, will be
promptly met and dispose ed OF by the adoption
of some efficient measures for the suppression
or punishment OF every REASONABLE or disloyal
sentiment, uttered by Whomsoeyer it may be-
At the present time, however, times are lit

ecruit1uR Order,

Secretary Cameron has issued an order,
which is published in another column, to the
effect that there will be no more regiments
or companies raised by State Governors, ex-
cept upon the lequisition of the War De.
partment; but those now forming may be
completed under direction of the Governors.
The recruiting volunteer service is placed
under charge of general superintendents for
each State, with general depots for the col
lection and instruction of recruits. The
Superintendent for this State is Major N. G.
NcRae, and the recruiting depot is at Camp
Chase, Columbus. The system goes into
operation on the first day of the coming
year, when volunteer officers now on recruit
ing service will be relieved,

Wisconsin,.


They have nc trouble il getting volunteers
in Wisconsin. Liberal provision has been
made by the State for the wives and chill
dren of all volunteers who need assistance.
The wife of each soldier resident in the State,
enlisted in a Wisconsin regiment receives
from the State S. per month, and each child
under twelve years Of age So per month.
Should the soldier lose his life in the SERVICE
the same liberal bounty inures to his family
so long as it may be needed. This care for
the families of those who enlist has been the
means of securing an excellent class of men,
and we are informed that the Wisconsin
regiments are among the finest in or about
Washington, and are abundantly aud well
supplied with clothes and camp equipage.

Governor nIoItop. ofIndinun.


This gentleman is either very lucky man,
OF is possessed of large amount OF good,
strong common sensei probably both. His
conduct since the breaking out of the rebel
lion has been such as to make him very
popular both at home and abroad, and to
bring universal commendstion. His last
"stroke of policy" has been developed by his
recent visit to Washington. At the breaking
out Of the rebellion the treasury of Indiana
was empty; but the Governor went to work,
and in very short time had large volun-
teer force ready for the field, armed and
equipped in splendid manner. A heavy debt
wss thus incurred, for which the State was
held. The Governors recent visit to Wash
ington was for the purpose of getting In.
diana's quota of the National tax set off by
the money spent in equipping volunteers.
The amount thus saved to the State will not
be much less than half million of dollars,
and will obviate the necessity of levying q
national tax in that State for 1862 No
doubt the people will feel comfortable when
assured OF such exemption as well they may
these depressing times.

Exckanre Of Prisoners.

The announcement that there is a likeli-
hood of a general exchange Of prisoners
with the rebels, will be received with hearty
satisfaction throughout the North. 1t said
no formal arrangements for such exchange
have been made, but each party is acting as
though there had been. Fifty. eight rebels
we're recently released in Washington, for
" hich an equal number of our men were
sent back from the South. Lieutenant
Kurtz then appeared, in exchange for whom
q rebel officer of equal rank, was set free.
Secretary WelIes next released three prison.
ers taken by the navy, and the rebels sent
back three ofour officers. Finally, General
Mcclellan made an order freeing two hun
dred and fifty prisoners. In response to the
first installment of these, thirty-seven in
number, thirty seven of our men have
arrived. If the whole number come, there
need be no trouble hereafter, except in special
cases. 1t is understood that the Government
is willing to release any prisoner of war in
its possession in return for Colonel Corco.

Testins TheIr patrIolIsm.

A test is about to be applied to the patriot
ism of those gentleman who want shoulder
straps and have long swords dangling at
their sides. 1t is proposed to reduce the pay
of all commissioned officers Of the army
during the war. 1t is argued that such a
measure will soon demonstrate which officers
hold their positions for love of country, aud
which for the pecuniary emoluments. It is
not intended to disturb ths rate of pay of
pIiVates and nom commissioned officers.
There will doubtless be considerable futter-
irg when the proposition is made 10 Congress,
spd the pressure may be strong enough to
prevent any such measure being carried,
Cincinnati daily press. [volume] (Cincinnati [Ohio]) 1860-1862, 1861-12-14

1t has been positively decided by the Gov
eminent to fill up the regiments now in the
field to one thousand and forty six men. In
order to DO this we presume il will be found
necessary to break up many or all of the i'm
perfect organizations now in progress, thus
leaving many would be officers standing out
in the cold. This will go hard, no doubt,
with some; but the President has no notion
Of putting into the field an army of officers,
or of sadding new let of pensioners upon
the treasury. Had this move been made
months ago it would have proved a saving OF
many thousands of dollars But better late
than never.

TTyinR GetUpn6,lIusn.U %

The radicals in Congress are doing their
best to get up a fight with President Lin
coin, ss is evidenced by their action of late
in caucus and other ways. They do not ap-
prove of bis position on the niger question.
They are determined TO either Abolitionize
the Republican party or else break it up, aud
we shall not be surprised if they succeed, aud
before the close of the session many mem
hers who were elected on the ground Of being
favorable TO the Administration are strong in
open opposition to it. But we feel assured
that, let the radical politicians do as they
may, the President will find himself sus
taiped by the mass of the people.
