Would Not Do IL!

1t is stated on Gerry good authority that some
housing politician Of Indiana sent a well-known
abolition preacher of this State all the way TO
Louisville to induce john CRITrENDEN to write
a letter to some one in Indiana, in which he should
denounce dsapprove of the Democratic plat
form adopted at indianapolis on the 3Oth July
last. Mr.. CRITTENDEN replied to the imperti-
nence by writing a note to the pious missionary,
in which he enclosed the resolutions of the con-
sentative and Democratic members of Congress,
adopted at Washington in June, 1862, (and writ
ten by Mr.. CRrrrENDES himselO and said that
that was his platform, and the political party
which sustained it. in Indiana or elsewhere,
should have his prayers for its success. As the
Democratic Convention of July 80 adopted the
resolutions of the gallant old Kentucky states
man word for word, and every sentiment thereof,
1t is understood that the crazy abolition preacher
came back TO Hoosier6om with the largest kind
of flea in his earl We suppose that letter will
hardly be published
We are not prepared to say 'chO sent that
preacher on an errand of mercy so disinterested,
but as a certain merchantable commodity of
certain value has been FORMULATING the State,
and protesting to deep interest in the position
of Mr.. CRIrrENDEN it is as likely as not that that
political Swiss had something do in the dirty
business. He is in the habit of using all of
dirty tools to accomplish his purposes. and he
may have prostituted some otherwise decent
preacher to perform very disreputable job. 1t
is not the first time that game was played
The glorious old Kentucky statesman, how
ever. was not to be caught by this shallow arti-
yenence heretofore-diG not answer the purpose
of that political Nav worm and trickster He
failed to get one word of consolation from that
quarter.

OF putting to death all prisoners in cold blood,
and without special cause, might as well be pre-
tended 10 be law of war, or the right TO use
poisoned weapons, or 10 asSassinate.
Such were the sentiments of JOIN QUINCY
ADAMS and our Government in 1915 and in 1870.
In IT'S, Lord DUNMoRE, the British Governor
OF Virginia, attempted to promote the interests Of
the British Government by offering freedom to al
slaves who would rise and assist him. What
says British historian in regard to this infamous
measured
In the colonies, and even in all other countries,
an universal cry arose against a measure which
tended TO disturb society in It's very foundations

race naturally ferOcious, to vengeance and muir
der
The colonies then were in rebellion against the
British Government According to the Journal
the rebel States occupy the same position toward
the Federal Government as did the colonies to
Great Britain. We quote from that print in con
irmation:
We believed, and still believe that the true
province OF Government is not more to preserye
itself than to adapt itself to the demands of the
governed, and that war to maintain one Gov
eminent over those who believe that they would
be better off under another, is unwise cruel, and
IN Americans, inconsistent.-JOurRGi, January
10, 1861.
1t is said that the proclamation of Lord DIRK
MORE "was not merely useless; it was pernicious;
it irritated the minds of the greater number. and
gained over none" The Journal, while con
ceding that the proclamation can do no good. only
where it can be made operative, and that must
be by the occupation of the rebel territory, ia
vors pernicious policy, the effect of which is
to irritate the minds of the greater number,
while gaining over none.
In IT'S, 1915. and in 1920 our own people ex-
ecrated the same measures as revolving to the
civilization of the age, which the Journal now
approves not only, but exlols. We ask every
good citizen to think candidly of these things.
We condemned impolitc not only, but as in
famous, the very policy now proposed by the
radicals and which we said was violation of the
laws of nations and of the rights of belligerents
While We utterly condemn the rebellion and are
in favor of the most vigorous measures which
will accomplish the restoration of the national au-
thority and the national unity, and, as Mr. LIN
coin declared it to be his first and most ardent
wish, the restoration of all the States to their
constitutional rights, we should fail in manliness
If we did not deprecate measures which, as a
people we have condemned, and which all civilized
countries declare to be barbarous, inhuman,
unjustfable, and as Legitimate warfare.

cRIrrESDEx's PLAN PROPOSED.

Such was the condition of the public mind and
the necessity of adopting some measures to pre-
vent the calamties of civil war and disunon, so
iorcibly set forth by Mr.. DOUGLAS in his able
speech in the Senate. from which the foregoing
extracts are quoted, that the eminent statesman
and patriot of Kentucky. join J. CRrrrENDEN,
felt called upon as a duty to his country to pro-
pose plan of adjustment to the Senate and the
people, which he did December 18th, 1860 lSee
Congressional Globe, vol. ! +, page Ia, ls6O-6l
At that time not a State had seeded or left the
Union. If Congress had acted promptly upon
the proposition, and adopted it by a vote which
would have demonstrated that the North intend
ed to have acted in good faith, there is evidence
to show that not a State would have attempted
secession. excepting perhaps South Carolina.
As part of the history of secession we give
