LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 1.-THE Journal Of
this city makes the following important an-
nou1 eeEent:
1--WE have juet seen dizpatch, dated Wash

authority, which states that the corrections
desired by the Union men Of Kentucky in
F1ement's proclamation on the two points,
The turning loose Of eonfscsted negroes, and
taken up arms for day only, aud afterwards
served the United Sta7es faithfully, will be

much tuhject to punishment as those who
persisted in the 1ebs llion up to the date Of
the proclamation.

Late ad7ices from the frontier represent
that five Thousand Indians are encamped on
the forks Of the Republican river, Kansas, and
are pslpe:rat!pg constant outrzges upon the
property and persons OF pionaers settlers. It Is
said that exte siye robberies have repeatedly
been committed, and that several families
bare been murdered. The Omaha HeWd&kian
Of the 5th inet. makes loud complaint respect
i1g ttis painful condition Of affairs, and Tn
plores the speedy interposition Of the Gov.
erDment. From other sources, intelligence
Ct the came startling p1rport and cries tor re
lief reach ue. Doubtless, the matter has al:
ready been fully BROUGHT to the attention Of
the national authorities, who have taken the
necessary t:ep In the case. Nebraska has
furnished three companies Of cavalry for sup
pressing the rebellion, and Kansas has thus
early wen imperishable laurs Is by the bravery
of her regiments In the tlsld- The Govern

must save it." Events are proving that the

several States of the Union, to the aggregate
number Of seventy-tive thousand, in order to
suppress il the revolted States of the South

Thirdly, in commanding the persons

ito wit, the 10Th day OF April, the President
nxes the limit Of forbcaranee from which we

nations aforesaid" must prepare tor the conse-

bending all the available forces and resources

The patriotic and humane war policy thus
proclaimed by Mr.. Lincoln has rallied the

IT is doubtful whether Spain will accept the al

imagine her refusal of such tempting offer "a

The an.eccdeDts Of Spain most certainly do not
.a,ran, us in surprising that her conscicn-
lious scruplcs at ali interfere with her
policy in this affair; ard we believe
Tho hesitation she manllests about it arises
from mere diplomatic cautlousne ., and
IA intended to conceal. for the mouent her
real intentions which are, II not thwat,od to

Such Wee the enthusiasm with which the trst
call of the President was responded to, in the
prospect of an assault on Washington, that dou-
bic the number Of defenders could have been
easily obtained, and We might il fact have had
now enrolled all the additional troops he de-
mauds in his second proclamation. Perhaps in
the history of the world there is no example of
such military enthusiasm, and 80 large
force volunteering In support Of the govern
ment v hose existence was endangered. II is
the most complete proof Of the predominance
OF The Union sentiment and q warning not only
TO the secessiouifts of the South, but to the
abolition disunioniste Of the North, that their
occupation Is gone, and that they will never be
permitted again to distract and divide the coun-
try az they have heretofore done.

THE TRooPs MASTERING FOR THE WAR.--On
The 18th Of April President Lincoln issued a
proclamation calling for 5000 volunteers to
serve for three months, to enable him to sup
press combinations against the government, to
execute the laws Of the Union in the seeded
Statet, and to repossess himself Of the captured
forts, arsenals, places and property Of the
Uoited States government seized in the seven
States of the Southern confederacy. In his Sc
cond proclamation, published in yesterdays
HERALD, he calls for ~ 900 more to serve for
three years "a infantry and cavalry, besides an
advance Of 40 900 men to the regular armA and
49, ~obn@ In sll $4,000 compyiscd In fhe

mand immediate and adequate measures for
the protection Of the national constitution and
the preservation of the national Union" This
Is just and legitimate object for the employ
ment Of troops, ard very different from that

country.
The President will submit Ills measure
to Congress az coon as 1t assemblies,
together with the call for volunteers.
Meanwhile the twenty days grace given
in his first proclamation to the Southern
revolutionists to dispense will have expired
this day; and to morrow We suppose the govern.

But with the expiration Of the twenty days
grace aforesaid, the question recurs, Where
will the administration frat strike to "repos-
sess the forts, places and property which have
been seized from the Union?" We are assured
hat not many days will elapse before de
cisive combined movement will be made of a
very comprehensive character. We conjecture
that ii will embrace, FIRST the reopening of our
right of.-WaY and Of the railroad route, via
Havre dc Grace, through Baltimore, and the
occupation of that city by column of Union
troops, az a base OF operations, "peaceably II
we can, forciby IL we must" This enterprise
is eItaibly the first necessity of the govern
lature at Frederick, aad of the turbulent &C.
cessou mob awaiting their orders at Baltimore
But this secession Legislature, and its Balti-
more mercenaries, may be suppressed
without further bloodshed, in the occrpa'fsn
of the city by an imposing body OF federal
troops. We are confident that Maryland caa
thus be saved through reaction Of the Union
sentiment of the State, which, though powerful
in fair test at the polls is powerless unarmed
against horde Of armed unchecked and reck-
less ruffians.
Next, with regard to Virginia We have
shown The importance OF federal demonstIa
ton in that quarter in ssason to impress that
people regarding their true Policy before their
general election on secession on the 23d in
slant. The western section of the State isloyal
10 the Union and, Notwithstanding the secession
reign CT terror in the east, the rebel ,uraals
submissionists in their midst The speedy oc-
cupstion of Harper's Ferry Alexandria, Rich
monJ and Norfolk, by detachment of federal
troops, becomes, therefore, an object of the
highest moment in behalf Of bloodless resto-
ration of Virginia TO the Union. Before the
expiration Of the present week we hope to re-
cord the news of successful coup in this oi-
rection.
The objects and purposes Of the administra-
ton are clearly expressed, and they are limited
to the Integrity Of the Union" which embraces
oil the constitutional rights ofall the States and
all their people. This war is only directed
against hostile combinations. In support of
this policy, men by tens of thousands, and mo
neys by tens Of millions, are at the service of
the government, and tho people have a right to
expect the government to dispense the rebels
in Virginia before they are sufficiently strength
ened by their Southern confederates to risk a
battle.
