TERRORISM.

Notwithstanding Governor Letcher's purpose,
as alleged, to protect Union men in Virginia,
and notwithstanding the denial, in some cases,
Of the persecution to which they have been sub.
jected, we learn, from an authentic source, that
in the village of Falls Church, Fairfax county,
which is settled chiefly by persons of Northern
birth, thirteen families have already abandoned
their homes, and as many more are preparing
to leave. The precinct at this place gave an
overwhelming majority for the Union at the
late call for State Convention, and at the
Presidential election there were, besides large
majority for Bell and Everett, nineteen votes
cast there for Lincoln and Hamlin. Since these
dates, it has been the especial object of atten.
ton with the Breckenridge Democracy and we
are told that the sheriff of the county, who is
represented 10 be a sort of secession bulldog,
has informed individuals there that " those who
voted for Lincoln had better leave" and at any
rate, if this was overlooked, and they voted
"against the ordinance of secession, they would
be marked"
As new feature in the system of terrorism
practiced there now, we have received the sub
Joined copy of note, in letter form, addressed
to person whose name we omit and dropped
in the road near the dwelling Of this person:
DEAR SIR: l entreat you, in the name Of
God, to get off as soon as possible for have
heard some folks talk about you, and they have
laid plan to do you some injury, if you are not
gone away in a weeks time. 1t was the worst
thing that you could have done to have let

friend, and 60 a. soon as possible.

MILITARY DESPOTISM.

1t will be seen that the Missouri Legisla.
ture has passed, during its present extra ses.
sion, the military law which failed of pas.
sage at its regular session OF last winter, and
which provoked so much comment at the time,
in and out Of Missouri,
This law compels everybody between the
ages Of eighteen and forty .fve into the service,
imposes upon the officers an oath of exclusive
allegiance to the State, although the Constitu.
ton of Missouri requires all civil and military
officers to take an oath to support the Constitu.
ton Of the United States, and makes it an Of
fence, punishable at the discretion of courts
martial, to speak disrespectfally Of the Gouern
or, or Of the Legislature. This is to put the
State under a perfect military despotism and
reign of terror, and it is in line of policy
pursued by the secessionists everywhere.
Precisely the same thing was attempted in
Maryland, in the form of creating board Of
dictators, under the name of Committee o
Public Safety, but which was happily defeated
by an uprising of the people. What was at
tempted in that particular, has already appeared
in our columns, among the current news of the
day; but it is Of so much importance, as illus
trating the spirit Of the conspirators of seces
sion, that we mark the following extract from
letter written to US on the 7th of May, by q
distinguished citizen of Frederick, Maryland
For a day or two last week, we stood on
the brink Of precipice, from which bad mel
hoped to plunge us into the gulf of secession
and if the nerves of our Legislature had beer
as steadfast as its purpose was manifest, We
would not have been able to draw back The
means by which we were to have been hurried
into the vortex Of secession, was the creation
Of military dictatorship, in whose hands th'
purse aud the sword were united. Ex-Govern
ors Lowe and Pratt, Thomas Wnans ant
Walter Mitchell, and one or two more Of thu
same traitorous stamp, were to have been ou
military rulers, with a fund Of $2,0O0,000 t.

OUR INDIAN POLICY.

While all claim for our Government kind
and even benevolent intentions toward the In.
dams, and speak Of great forbearance on the
part of our citizens in their general intercourse
with the red men, yet facts too numerous, with
proofs too strong for doubt, stare us in the face,
Of outrages gross and terrible practiced by
vicious white men upon unoffending Indians.
Instance the brutal conduct of the rabble
that murdered, not sixteen months since, du.
ring the shades of single night, no less than
eighty seven Indian men, women, and children,
in Humboldt county, California, cutting them
in pieces with axes, hatchets, and bowie knives.
Forty.two Of this number were slaughtered so
near the residence Of Mr.. John NJ Eddy, our
lately.appointed receiver in the land Office for
that part of the State, that their terrible cries
aroused him and his family in time to reach
the scene before they were yet all dead. Here
lay before them the dead and dying of both
sexes, and of all ages, from feeble old age down
to infancy, this number presenting, as this
worthy gen leman says, one Of the most dread
full scenes that mortals are called to look upon.
These acts unpunished, except by public camor
and newspaper condemnation, few months
rest suiices, and, in the same region, sixteen
more are murdered. This unheeded, except as
before, fresh courage is taken, and the tocsin of
war is sounded all along through the hills and
dales Of that part of the Golden State, and
again the poor Indians are hunted for the
slaughter.
1t may be asked, is there no provocation for
these repeated outrages?" answer, none as
yet heard Of. The accounts that we get OF the
last conflict with the Indians was brought tc
Fort Kearny by pony express, and from thai
point forwarded by telegraph on the 4th instant
and is as follows:
"Ac counts of Indian disturbances in Hum
boldt and other northern counties are AGAR
becoming frequent, and there seems to be al
organized effort making to kill off all the trouble

I" Preparations had been made in advance, by

" But fortunately for us, and perhaps for the
Legislature itself, its nerves gave way in face
Of the fiery indignation of the people, and the
determined opposition Of Henry and Charles
Goldsborougb, Messrs. Smith, Miles, and Stone,
who combated it at every step with an ability
and steadfastness worthy of the noble cause
for which they we're contending. If their
efforts had failed, as it was for while believed
they would, God only knows what would have
been the upshot. The temper and determine.
ton of the people we're such, that in all likeli-
hood the legislative body would have been
driven from their halls with the bayonet. This
would have produced collision between the
Union and secession troops, that were in arms
and ready for the conflict. There was but one
way to have averted such catastrophe, which
was the arrest Of the leaders Of the secession
troops and members. This had been advised,
and there were men ready and willing to exc
cute any command for such purpose!

COL. BLAIR AND CAPT. LYON.

The recent startling events in St. Louis,
which have excited the wonder and admiration
Of loyal people throughout the country, are
the necessary results of welldgested policy,
which, several months since, was planned by
Frank Blair, and inaugurated q few weeks
prior to the election Of delegates to the Con.
vention in Missouri.
1t soon became evident that the same un-
scrupulous means were to be adopted in Mis-.
souri, which had accomplished the secession of
the Gulf States: that the police Of St. Louis
were to be placed under the control Of a rebel
Governor, and the State subjected to the ty-
rannical provisions of military law, which
would make that traitor the commander of q
formidable force, to be directed in furthering
the secession of the State from the Union /; and
that these expedients were to be especially
used to overawe the Union men of St. Louis
and Of every loyal county in the State, and pre-.
vent the election Of Union delegates to the
Convention.
Mr.. Blair Immediately conceived the admi.
rable plan of converting all the old "Wide
Auen,ial in the Presidential campaign into
"Union Clubs" 1t was at once announced
that meetings would be held, and at those
meetings the Wide Awakes would disband.
The meetings we're held. The "Wide
Awakss" did disband. They laid down their
torches, and took up their muskets. They
went into the meetings, pa :i6c, political asso.
Citations; they came out of them, formidable
military bodies, already well drilled and fitted
by the long practice Of the Presidential cam.
paigu to act as an efficient organization
against the armed treason that was Just bud.
ding at Jefferson city. For weeks they met and
exercised under the supervision of capable
military officers, and although their meetings
were secret, the secessionists of St. Louis soon
became aware Of their existence, and conse.
quently endeavored, though unsuccessfully, to
induce the Legislature to give the Governor au.
thority to place the city under martial law on the
day of electing members of the State Conven.
ton, and by that means effect their suppression
The wholesome restraints exerted on the seces
sionists by the knowledge of the strength and
resources of this powerful Union organization
and of their readiness to fight for the Union
wherever the occasion made It necessary,
prevented all turbulence on election day, and
contributed to insure the success Of the un.
conditional Union ticket in St. Louis.
This is the nucleus Of the military force Of
5000 volunteers, who, under the command Of
the gallant Captain Lyon, surrounded the
armed traitors under General Frost, and
crushed out effectually the only secession Or
ganization from which any real danger was
to be apprehended in Missouri. Frank Blair
is colonel of one regiment Of those volunteers,
and has doubtless been the ruling spirit in their
last admirable coup de gurree, as he was in d.
recting their original organization.
