Republican Protection club.

The usual monthly meeting Of this body held in the
Cooper Institute last night The routine business was
gone through. and there no other matter of tho
slightest public importance engrosed the attention of ta
meeting. One feeling appeared to animate all present
the great necessity for union in the present important
crisis through which the country passing and rea-.
diness and determination to uphold the administrative auI
horiy in these perous and trying times when rebellion.
had attained to such height in this great gort-
Gus country.

"The President" exclaims one of these dia-
bolical niger worshipping organs, "has vio-
lated the constitution in the interest of slavery.
1t was reserved for his last public act-as weak
rs IL was wcked-to brand him forever with
the dsgraceiul distinction of being the first
man on the American continent who stopped
under the guise of law, to reduce free men to
slaves" AT the very moment when our far
sighted, single-minded and cmnently statesman
like President has succeeded in putting forth
such gigantic energies to save the Union, as en-
title him to the highest rank among patriots,
these vile abolition factionsts endeavor to poi
son the public mind and to prepare popular SEN
timent for insurrection in the North. "Thc
slave hound of Illinoisl' This is The title given
to the man who Of all others deserves the sap
port Of the American nation, by the very men
who aided in elevatng him to power. He has
refused to cater to either their destructive IA
naticism, or the selfishncss of their demagogic
lust for spoils, and has thus earned the diatrbes
that are daily poured forth against him.
1t is high time that the strong hand of power
should be raised against the organs of insurrec-
tionary abolition in our midst. They are bent
on creating disaffection and discomfort, and it
is the bounden duty of government to put
stop to their intrigues. The marked approba-
ton Of every portion Of the Northern States was
shown when the so-called peace papers Of the
North were suppressed; but we have no hesita-
ton in saying that the day would be hailed
with public rejoicings, on which the Offices of
the anti-slavery DISCLAIMERS against the wise
measures Of the President, shall be closed.

ImpOrtantStatistIcs Desired.

Mr.. MEmINGER, Secretary of the Treasury, has
addressed circular to the Mayors of Cities and
Towns, containing the following interrogarories
What branches of manufacture, or other indus
try, if any, within your limits which did not pre-
Viously exist, have sprung up during the existing
war, and to what extent and what enlargement
has been made Of previous manufactures
If no changes have taken place in your msnufac
tures, please if convenient, give any facts, relst
ing to such as exist IN your neighborhood.
The information here sought should be furnished
d Immediately by our city authorities Itcan be
done by the Mayor or Common council appointing
8 suitable COMMITTEE to visit every ward
and compile exact date as to tho increase
of manufactures in the city, since the commence
ment of the war. No city in the COnfedersey can
exhibit greater increase of manufacturing than
Nashville within that period. Establishments for
supplying the various wants of the people, have
sprung up here, under the magic influence Of de-
mand created by the war, and nowhere else to be
supplied. We have manufactured here and within
the vicinity all the material and munitions of war
and the equipments of the soldier. In addition,
other useful and necessary manufactures have
sprung up in our midst, of which q fair and
correct exhibit should be made.
Nashville will thus be found to be advancing more
rapidly than aHy city in the South, in all the var
ious branches Of manufactures. We yesterday
visited the new gun mandatory, on South College
street, which has been set on foot by SONS of our
enterprising citiznns, and Of which Mr. CaARLEs
JONES, late of Memphis, is Superintendent. 1t will
be, when completed, one of the most extensive es-
Establishments Of the kind in the Confederacy, and to-;
gether With the State srmory and other establish
bsro fto, 81
for al our purposes, either in the present war; or
in any other that may ensue.
We might enumerate many other new establish~
ments, but leave it to our city authorities to fur
nish the information fer the Secretary Of the
Treasury, when it will be given to Che public
They can do no more important service to the city
or the Government, than by complying as once
with the request of Mr.. MEENGER.

The ingratss OF Kentucky are seeking reputR
tion a. unenviabs as that possessed by the Union
lists of East Tennessee. Night before last party
of about one hundred Federalists surrounded thir-
teen Confederates at Whippoorwiu creek, on the
Memphis Branch Railroad, distant eight miles from
RusseIlville, killed two Of them and took the re-
naming eleven prisoners.
The Confederates we're members Of Col HUNFs
kentucky regiment stationed RussellVille, and
were at the Creek for the purpose of guarding the
railroad bridge which was burnt by the Lincoln
ties The bridge was wooden structure Of abuut
sixty feet span AID its destruction will ssriou ly
interfere with the temporary transfer OF freight,
although it is stated that will pass over it to-
morrow. The Federalists who did the burning
and four of whom were wounded, belonged to Col
BURBRAGEs' command, stationed near Calhoun, on
Green river. It is to be hoped they may be cap
tured and brought to punishment similar to that
meted out to the nicendisries Of East Tennessee.
Nothing short Of terrible visitation Of armed
and determined men 8 nong the Lincolntes who in
fest the Green river country, will ever put stop
to the gross wrongs and Outrsges being daily com
mitted by them.
As long as they are permitted to pilage and burn
with IMMUNITY, long will they continue to do it,
and the sooner force is sent smong them the more
secure will be the property Of Oitizsna and the pub
lie.
By order of Gan. JOHNSTON all ths faro banks in
