THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS IN REPLY
TO AN INDICTMENT.


THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS IN REPLY
TO AN INDICTMENT.
On the morning after the day the News
and other New York papers we're indicted,
il came out with the following manly and
straightforward replcation:
Slrrnuously, consistently and unswervins>
ly, the Daily News has maintained, since the
bombardment Of Fort Sumter, an event for
which the Administration of President Lin.
culn is wholly and solely responsible:-
|. That the civil war in which the coun-
try IS involved is iniquitous, uncalled for,
and destructive Of the prosperity Of the Re-
public. and that il has grown out Of wicked
and demagogical catering to Abolition fanat-
icism on the part OF the authorities at Wash
ington, which cannot be too severely repro>
batet.
2. That every drop Of blood that has been
shed in the present contest has been calam-
I ity, and that every life that has been lost has
been murder, which might have been avoid
ed had patriotism and moderation prevailed
IN Federal councils.
8. That the increase Of our army; the ex-
pendilure of money without the permission
II Congress-; the blockade Of Southern ports;
the proclamation Of marital law; the suspen-
sim of the writ Of habeas corpus the inya-
sion 81 sovereign States without summons
lron their Executives or Legislatures; the
overthrow Of the authority Of local courts |;
and the sbrogstion Of our military and naval
laws. have been utterly unconstitutional acts,
committed in defiance and violation of The
oath Of office Of the Chief Magistrate Of the
land. and for which he ought 10 be impeach-
! I'd and drposed.
4. That il would be FAR better to permit
the discontented portion Of the United States
to depart in peace, and more in conformity
with the views and intentions Of the consti-
tuiion 10 suffer the Republic TO be divided
into Two Confederacies, than to array the
! different sections against each other 10 in
iernecinr strife, and 10 blast the future pros
perits Of the whole Union BY an expensive.
Improbable and bloody war, which must in.
e,irsbly end in leaving sectional issues as
unseiilrd as they were before it began.
5 That the grievances Of which the South
ern States have complained have been, main
", wrll founded. aud that the compromise
plans suggested by Senators Critienden and
l,igler IN the Thirty-sxth Congress. and BY
other conservative representatives Of the peo-
pie in the extra session Of the present Con-
gre,s. ought TO have been adopted.
6. Th.t the acknowledgment by the Fed
eral Go, eminent Of the right of Slave owners
10 convey and hold their property in the CON.
non Territories, would have been pre-emi-
nrntly Just. and that the Confederate States
will 10 wisely 10 insist upun constitutional
tight 10 self.esident. at all times, and under
all circumstances.
:. That civil war is to be avoided. and
that amuy between the several States is to
be- cultivated.
5. That the pecnniary profigacy Of the
Administration Of President Lincoln is Mt
tetly condemnable, and that the system of
wholesale peculston and plumber which has
characterized The different branches Of the
Government since the fourth Of March has
no parallel in the history Of our country.
3. That we are firmly and earnestly con-
vineed that the people are hostile to the
President, hostile to his cabinet. hostile to
the asurpations Of the last SIX months. and
believe they must, if continued, end in snar-
chy or military despotism.
These have been the constantly reiterated
views Of the Daily News for several months
past. and i they render our paper worthy OF
indictment. we have only 10 say that We COW
ct no better fate.
