Indiana State sentinel. (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1861-1865, 1861-09-11

This proclamation meets the condemnation of
the Union men of this State. There is no doubt
that similar declaration has been made by the
Confederate sotstes, coniiscating 'au property Of
euery description owned, possessed, or enjoyed by
alien enemies since the Dist of May, 1861" and
that it aims both directly and indirectly at the
slave property belonging to Union men, whether
in or out Of the Confederate States. This is con
fessed, but the Union men do not believe that the
condition of Missouri justified it: and more than
that, they do not think that a powerful Govern
ment like ours should follow in the footsteps of
the Southern mob. The right to confscate is
undoubted, but the policy is more than questions
BILE. The negro question is too irritating wound
to be touched by such an unskilful hand that
Of Fremont. In our own State, managed by our
own citizens, such thing cannot occur, and the
only effect will be to show that another officer
has been appointed BY the Federal Government
who does not fully und, rstand the duties devolved
upon him, nor the people with whom he has to
deal.
Ii is part, however, Of the fortunes OF war.
When the negro property of the Union men is
confscated by Secessionists, expect moth
ing else than the Generals of the Unitei States
army should feel at liberty to do the same. IL

Constitution and particularly his usurpation Of
the powers Of Observation-Disclosures, Execu-
tive, and Judicial-thus constituting an unlimited
despotism in the States still adhering to the
Union; he has suspended the writ Of kabeGs cor
pus; he has seized and imprisoned a large number
of persons for pretended civil Ofenses, without
charge and without process, and has refused them
trial by jury, and keeps them imprisoned in d.
rect violation of the Constitution of the United
States.
Resolued, That il is our deliberate opinion that
such prisoners should be allowed speedy trial by
jury as provided for in the Constitution, and If
guilty, they should be punished, but If innocent.
they should be restored to liberty.
Resoloed, That we will not countenance war as
a means Of freeing the slaves Of the South, and
we denounce the act passed by the last Congress
and approved by the President for the conditional
emancipation as palpable violation Of the Con
stitution and tending to show the object for
which the war is Naged.
Resolred, That il is the opinion Of this meeting
that the President of the United States should
take immediate steps 10 exchange prisoners taken
captive in the now waging in the United
States. That TO do SO, would not 10 be 10 recog-

RESOLVED, That while we hold ourselves an

At meeting OF the Democracy of Owen, Put
nam and Clay counties. near the corner of said
counties, on Saturday, August "a, 1861.
On motion Capt. w H. Thornburg was called
to the chair, and Melvin Mckee appointed Secre-
tary.
On motion of Gilmore Conley, committee of
three from each county were appointed to draft
ing.
The President appointed Gilmore Conley, Sol
omon Akers, and James A.. Scott, of Putnam
ounty; Col John B. Neese. A. T. Lansing and
W. S. Walker, of Clay; John Black, J. s. Lucas
and William Kinnaman, of Owen.
When the committee retired, speeches were
made by Judge Eckels, James A. Scott, ESQ.,,
Captain W. H. Thornburg, and Colonel John B.

The following resolutions were read and unani-
mossy adopted:
WHEREAS, Within few months our unparal-
leled prosperity has been stricken down, and
bankruptcy and ruin are beginning to take its
place; onerous taxation, and an enormous public
debt threatens US and our posterity, while civil

rounded by such circumstances it is not only the
right, but it is the duty. of freemen to assemble
and take council OF one another in relation to it,
and express such opinions as. in their Judgment,
the occasion demands: therefore
Res7loed, That it is our opinion that secession,
so far from being a remedy for any of the wrongs
threatened to or realized by the Southern States,
it is the cause Of many Of the evils suffered and
suffering by both them and u.s.
Resolved, That we regard civil war the GER
tain means of causing final separation between
the States now engaged in it. and closing the
door to a reconstruction of the Union upon the
Constitution, with such amendments to the latter,
as to make the right of all seem secure within the
Union.
Resolced, That while we are willing and ready
to do whatever Is right to secure to each
State the uninterrupted enjoyment of all its re-
served rights, re srI NOT conseut to dissolution
Of the Union.
ResolUed, That we condemn the President Of

There is great deal of unnecessary trouble
made about General Fremont's proclamation in
Missouri and discrepancies are discovered be
tween the policy which he indicates for that State
and what the Government has laid down for Vir-
ginia. But the difference is only technical, and
amounts to very little. Whether he has acted
upon his own discretion, by the advice of the
President and his Cabinet, remains to be seen.
If he has acted on his own responsibility, he is
only carrying out the confscation act, far as
the slaves are concerned; and as for putting to
death those found in arms, that is also the law.
Whether he will carry the latter out, or find il
impracticable to do so, time will tell. As for the
manumission of the slaves, that question will be
settled by the Constitution, when the rebellion is
put down.
Meantime the Government is groping its way in
the dark 1t has to deal with formidable re-
bellion, and each General must be allowed more
or less to meet it in his own way That man will
probably be most successful who is the boldest.
The rebellion must be put down by some means
or another, else it will put us down, ard if moth
ing else will do, even to proclaim the abolition of
slavery would be legitimate. All is fair in war.
The Generals on both sides will do what they
think s most likely to contribute to success. A
discretion is vested in the Federal Geuerals, and
for its prudent exercise they responsible to the
Government and the people.
As 70 the ultimate consequences OF tne procia-
nation it is useless to speculate. 1t makes little
difference what Gen. Fremont proclairls or does
not proclaim What he does or omits to do is of
far more importance. The rebellion can only be
put down by the sword, and proclamations can
have very little influence upon the result. As TO
any supposed effect the policy indicated in Gen.
Fremonts proclamation might have upon his
own political fortunes aspirations, it is prema-
ture to enter upon such considerations at time
when no one knows what is 10 be the future OF
the country. Gen. Fremont and the other Gene
rails must act according to circumstances and their
own judgment, unless where otherwise ordered
by the Government. In their several districts or
departments the civil law is superseded and mar
tial rule prevails: but when the struggle is over
the Constitution and the civil law will again re
sumo their sway, and the army and its Generals
viii have to take their place in the background.

From the y. Y. Mercury's Special Correspondence
william and his HayeIOck

The members of the Mackerel Brigade, now
stationed on Arlington Heights, to watch the
movements of the Potomac which is expected TO
rise shortly, desire me to thank the ladies oi
America for supplies of havelocks and other del
cacies of the season just received. The have
locks, my boy, are rather roomy, and we we took
them for shirts at first; and the shirts are so mar
row minded that we took them for havelocks Ii
the ladies of America could manage to get lit
tie less linen in the collar of the latter and lit
tie more into the other department of the grace

division of the Grand Army
The haveocks, as have said before, roomy

pany q, put one on last night, when he went on
sentry duty, and looked like a brvomstick in a
pillow-case, for all the world When the officer
of the night came round and caught sight
of William in his havelock, he was struck dumb
with admiration for moment Then he ejacu-
lated:
What splendid moonbeaml''
William made a movement and the sergeant
came up.
"What is that white objecti" said the officer to
the sergeant.
"The young man is William Brown said the
sergeant
Thunder tell him to go to his tent and take
off that night gown"
foure mistaken, said the sergeant, "the sen
try is William Brown in his havelock, which was

The officer was so justly exasperated at his
mistake that he went to head quarters and took
the oath three times running, with little su
gar
The oath is very popular, my boy. and comes
in bottles. / take it incidentally myself
The shirts made by the ladies Of America are
noble articles as far down as the collar, but would
not do to use as an only garment.
Captain Mortimer de Montague, of the skir.
mish squad, put one on when he went to the
Presidents reception, and the collar stood up so
high that he couldn't put his cap on. Will the 9TH

His appearance at the White House was pic
turesque and interesting. and as he entered the
drawing room, General Scott remarked very feel
feelingly:

Hes not wounded, General" remarked an of
fcer standing by
''Then why is his head bandaged up so?" ask
ed the venerable veteran.
"Ohl'' says the officer, chats only one Of the
shirts made by the patriotic wimmin of Amer

In about five minutes after this conversation

hero at the Office taking the oath of allegiance
together
