Has Il not on the contrary extolled their
valor and ridieeuled the courage of our own
troops? And does it notin every issue in

more could any man do to give aid and

ri Ought the Government to ask us to 60
South TO fight rebels, and leave treason fes-
tering behind us. which is certain to ripen
and break out in open rebellion. as soon as
they can gather sufficient number togeth-
er to drive out or massacre the remaining
loyal inhabitants? Why not arrest the
ringleaders at once and either hold them as
prisoners of war or try them for treason!
There is no doubt but proof sufficient to
establish their guilt can be adduced.
Their object in reviling the powers that
be and characterizing all their acts for sup
pressing the rebellion as unconstitutional
and tyrannical. is to excite distrust and
destroy the confidence of the people in the
agents Of the Government, so that yolun-
teers enough cannot be obtained to conquer
the rebels. They croak continually about
the expenses Of the war. and the debt il
will entail on the, country, all for the pur-
pose of organizing an anti-war party to
embarrass the Administration and force il
to conclude humiliating and dishonora-
bic peace with the rebels. Were they true
and loyal men they would defer arraigning
the Administration before the country up
on the charges they are continually ma
king until after the war. But their invet-
crate partizanism and chagrine over their
defeats has crushed out what little patriot
ism they ever did possess. and they prefer
that the country shall be ruined if the peo.
pie will not let them rule It, Let them
rave They will, if they have not already,
soon commit some overt act of treason,
when the strong hand of the government
will be laid on them. They set the exam.
pie Of arresting and imprisoning men fo'
constructive treason even. in Kansas. in a
time of peace, and they win not complain
we suppose, if the precedent.is Invoked a

JESSE D. BRIGHT DISCOVERED,

. The following from the Cincinnati Ga
setfe lets good deal of light in upon the
position and sympathies of Jesse ID.
Bright. about which some little doubt has
been attempted to he created by his fol-
lowers. There IL no doubt that John G.
Davis, the Sentinel clique, and the whole
connection of rebel sympathizers In our
State have been in communication with
Davis and his gang. and some happy ac-
cident like this arrest of Lincoln will dis
close it one Of these days.
+ Abont two weeks since information was
received by the Custom House officers Of
this city that one Thomas B. Lincoln, a
prominent citizen of Texas, and an ardent
sympsthizer with the rebel Government,
was on his way TO Cincinnati-that he
had in his possession documents that,wo'd
warrant his arrest on charge Of treason.
Collector Carson Immediately put his
Deputies, Messrs. Pollock and Rose, on

here early last week, and took rooms at
the Madison House. His movements
were closely watched by Messrs. Rose and
Pollock, until on Saturday last, fearing
their bird might fly. they got United States
Marshal Sands to cage him. When ar
rested. he inquired what was the matter.
with all the astonishment of conscious in
nocence. On, being informed that he was
suspected of being spy. he replied that
the suspicion was unfouuded, and that
ifit were correct he was too sharp to have
any evidence of it about him. He said he
was citizen Of Texas. and participated. in
the Manassas battle on the Confederate
side. He was taken to the Marshal's Of
fee late in the afternoon, and transferred
thence to the county Jail to await an ex-
animation before United States Commits

A SEcoXD GERMAN REcINExT.-Seyen-
teen companies having been rendered the
Adjutant General for the German Regi-
ment. that officer has determined to recon-
mend the raising Of a second regiment
Three full companies for this Regiment
arrived at Camp Morton, more than week
ago. One was from Lawrenceburg, anoth-
er from Lafayette, and the other from Ter
re Baute.
Capt. Carlsnd's company of cavalry,
stationed at indianapolis. started for
Washington on Friday morning last. 1t
is said the cavalry companies at Madison.
will also be sent to Washington imme-
diately. We think it shame that troops
should be sent from Indiana to Washing
ton when they are needed so badly in Mis-
souri,. If Pennsylvania. New York and
the other Eastern States cannot furnish
troops enough with the twenty i've western
regiments already there to drive the rebels
out of Virginia, we think it is bad state
of society.
The cavalry at Evansville have been or
dered to st. Louis to join Gen. Fremont S
command.
The Sth Regiment, Col. Benton's. was
full week ago. and was only waiting for
its equipments to be ready to march. Capt
Charles S. Parrish, took company OF
225 into this regiment, which was divided
into two companies. and the surplus from
the two thrown into others. That is the
way to do business. Wabash is a strong
Republican county, and this accounts fol
the case with which companies are raised
there, but the Democrats almost every
