..what wasit Done for,n

The Journal of yesterday has the following
comments upon the intent of the recent collision
at Sullivan. which resulted in the death of Pro-
lessor FLETCHER:
The inteut of that collision was to kill Govern

with murder.

circumstances connected with that unfortunate

The Hopes and Fears and Plots OF the
Radicals.

The breakdown of the Arnold Lovejoy bill is
the cause of cxultation with all the border State
Unouists; but other schemes to Africanze the
South are in the Abolition budget. Fears begin
to be expressed that General Halleck may have
to wage an unequal contest at Corinth, and that
Gen. Mcclellan must fight a desperate battle ut
Richmond vet the radicals insist that the war Is
substantially at an end At one moment they
are depressed by fears, and at another Wild with
schemes to confscate property in States which
have not yet been recovered.
Ii was not from principle, but policy. that many
radical Republicans sgnfed to Mr.. Lovejoy that
he must abandon his sweeping measures of abo-
itionism They had ascertained they would be
beaten by small vote; but so far from giving up
their cherished schemes, they will prosecute them
under other forms.
The abolition of slavery here has male Wash
ingtou the asylum Of runaway slaves from ada
cent parts of Maryland and Virginia. and given
business heavy shock a-i s- ~
A Wholesale confscation act is not urged by
the abolitioLists TO relieve either the Treasury
to punish rebels, so much as 10 unsettle titles TO
real estate in the South. Ii all titles and prop
critics at the South are to be overthrow. the
North will reap much pecunary advantage from
prosecuting the war.
There will be no end of projects designed to
Africanize the South, hence the opposition to an
early adjournment of Congress. and the secret
maturing of plans like thai of arming the slaves.
Conhsca6on means emancipation. say the aboli-
ton leaders; a tax on cotton and tobacco would
bring money into the Treasury, while confsca-

be relieved of the Infamous frauds and corrup-
tions which have distinguished this Administra-
ton. which Mr. DAWES. Republican member of
Congress from Massachusetts,, thus character
lied in a recent speech in the House:
In the first year of Republican Administra-
tion, whici came into power upon professions of
reform aid retrenchments, there is indubitable
evidence abroad in the land that somebody has
plundered the public treasury well nigh in that
single yer as much as the entire current yearly
expenses If the Government during the Admins
tration witch the people hurled from power be
cause of is corruption.
These ire the motives which instigate the in
famously false charges against the Democracy
by the Republican leaders. But it will avail
them noting. They will be held to just re-
sponsibilis for their acts. and while the people
are putting forth every effort to crush out the re
bellion and restore the Union, they will not for
get the me who have thus deceived and robbed
them, and who in the name of liberty have
stricken down the dearest rights of freemen. Sc

e. The individual who temporarily edits the
Madison Courier says that the editor of that print
''is now at. or near, Cumberland Gap, laboring
with thousands of other patriotic men to put
down this internal rebellion" The editor afore-
said is Quartermaster-a Brigade Quartermas-
ter-not private, who shoulders his musket and
receives scarcely any compensation for his SER
vices in fighting for the preservation Of the Union,
but he occupies position out of which great
deal of money is made. He went into the war
for that object, and no other consideration would
have induced him to do So We know whereof
we speak. He makes money by the continuance
of the war-out of the thousand miseries and
evils it produces. Such are the men who de-
nounce Democrats for earnest desires and efforts
to restore the Union as it was and the Constitu-
ton as it is and they care not how long the war
lasts if they can by its continuance put money in
their pockets. They are the men who urge the
vigorous and eternal prosecution of the war.
Their patriotsm is measured by the number of
dimes they can make out of what the Indiana
polls Journal calls 1.-THE unholy war"

The Next Presidency.

The New York Journal of Commerce calls
attentiont to the disease of politics already mani
tested in the disposition to discuss the subject
of the next Presidency, especially in connec-
ton with the Generals in the army. We quote:
Men who are now calculating upon the next
Presidency are counting on impossibilites, and
wasting their time on blind and foolish strata
gems. The reason for calling them blind and
foolish is simple. The next President of the
United States will in all human probability, not
be taken from the men now in the political or
military field. And this is not for national, but
for party reasons. While the nation will always
honor the names of those Generals who are sue
cessfu in the service of their country at this try
ing moment it will not desire to place any of them
in the Office of Chief Magistrate the next cleo
ton. What is required for the peace and harmo-
ny, the prosperity and permanent Union Of the
nation, is President who shall, in no regard,
be subjected 10 the slightest charge of sec
tlOnalism, and who shall not be looked on with
personal disfavor or dislike in any part of the
country. Ii the radical men should be success
full in their notion of suspendng temporarily the
sovereignty of the States. and thus preventing
the South from having any voice in the next
Presidential election, it is of course very likely
that they would run such a man as Fremont, or
some other General who sympathizes with their
views, while the other side would run conserra-
tive General. This, however will not occur. If
the United States exists two years hence. and it
looks very much now as if il might exist two
hundred or two thousand years, the States which
compose it will be, as they have always been,
equal component parts. The most probable fu-
ture appears to be that a Union man of the
South. one whose loyalty has been tried in the
furnace of temptation and obloquy, will be the
candidate of the overwhelming majority of all
the people. The members of all the present
Cabinet must all stand aside for the present.
That is too plain to need argument. The Gene
rails of our army are not the proper men for the
nation to place in Office at the close of civil

War for the su1jsqafi0n oftke seeeders lcould
Sc Enrise and dspI0,able. There is no province
in the world, conquered and held by military
force, that is not a weakness TO its master
The logical lesson of this fact in this country
is, that il there are two nations here who have
been living in an unnatural union, they should,
for the benefit of one or both, be separated.
Now, because it win pay better. it repudiates
its own teachings. A paper which entertained
and advocated the sentiments we have quoted has
the impudenee-the brazen efrontery-to charge
the Sentinel, which has under all circumstances
and at all times stood by the Union il was and
the Constitution as it is, as sympathizing with
secessionism. The only cause of complaint with
the radicals against the Sentinel is. that it de-
nounces disunionism, whether of Southern or
Northern origin. If it had sweet words for the
disuniOn traitors of the North, then the CONNER
eiaI and kindred sheets would regard it as a
sound, loyal paper. That's wha- sticks in the
crops Of the Aboltionists.

Democratic Meeting in Cincinnati.

There was a large, enthusiastic and highly in
teligent body of Democratic citizens who re-
sponded to the call for meeting at Greenwood
Hall, to consider the propriety of more perfect
and thorough organization of the Democratic
party in this momenlous crisis of our country's
history. The feeling unanimous that the
only hope of the "restoration of the Union as it
was" and of the establishment of the Con-
sttution over all the thirty -four States in its for
mer integrity, laid through the triumph of the
Democratic views of National policy, and it was
also agreed that or9ani-ation-6ut open Organi
zation-was indispeDsably necessary to accom-
plish that great work.
There was difference of views as to the man
ner and form of the organization, but in regard
to the thing itself there was entire unanimty.
We reioiced to see the earnest and resolute tone
of the meeting and the patriotic impulses by
which it was governed. There is, beyond all
question, among the masses OF the Democracy a
want Of organization. that has yet to be supplied,
before il can again its victorious banner aOit
over restored Union and preserved Consttu-
ton 1t is so manifest, that it will be supplied,
we have little doubt, in every ward and township
through the country before many weeks areover.
The real friends of the Union have resolved on
that, and despite Abolition and disunion abuse,
they will labor until they accomplish it. There
is no cause. however good or popular, that does
not need perfect and systematic organizaton.-

A Curiosiy-A Plank Rescued from

such as is disconnected with the niger, is neces
sary to CARR on the operations of the army and
navy. and conducive to the good order aud pros
perity of the government; that they would OPP
pose all chimerical coniscation and emancipa-
ton schemes: that they you'd do ali in their
power to prevent the further depletion Of the
treasury by contractors and other robbers; and
that they would advocate speedy adjournment
of Congress. to take place Immediately after the
passage Of the necessary appropriation bills.
The result is that all the conservatism of the
country is to rally under the conquerIng banners
Of the constitutional Democracy, the honest
masses of which are already beginning to assert
their supremacy through the ballot boxes of the
Northwest. *s*

In noticing attack upon the Sentinel by the
Commercial the Enquirer saws:
The imputation of the Commercial against the
political character of the Sentinel are grossly
false and libelous. We have read the Sentinel
for many years. and a more Union loving, patri-
otic paper is not to be found IN the gsnd. IL has
always abOred and is now striving FOR the resto-
ration of the Union and the preservation of the
Constitution. scLt
The Cgmmerciaf has COMPOUNDED the Sentinel
with the Journal, the Republican organ in Tndi-
annapolis. which paper. after Me-. Lincoln was
elected, argued strenuously in favor of the Gene
raj Government letting any State withdraw from
the Union that desired to do so. The CONNER
eiat should be more careful. and not charge the
sins of the Journal upon the Sentinel.
A more mercenary sheet is not published than
the Cincinnati Commercial Whenever its pecu-
mary interests are not to be advanced by adher-
ing TO them it turns traitor to It's own teachings

lowing deliberately expressed sentiments of that

this view of the case be true, that the Governor
turned terrorstricken from the sad results of the
accident, as we are Informed that he did. We
would not charge that the "intent" of that col
lisiOn was to kill anybody, but il our theory Of
the affair is correct it was no less murder.
There is one thing certain, the facts in the case,
as developed by the testimony, relieve the citi-

Governor MORTON, it appears, is of the opinion
that ms life is of very great value, and that his
translation to another sphere just now might stop
the wheels of Government. However ably and
energetically he may have discharged the duties
imposed upon him during his term of Office, there
are tens of thousands in the State who, under
similar circumstances, would have displayed them
with equal, if not greater, ability and zeal, and,
without doubt, with far more advantage to the
public interests. Really great men have lived
and died, and yet the world moves on. The des-
TIMES Of the country do not depend upon the life
of any one man. WASHINGTON, and CLAY, and
WEBSTER, and JACKSON performed truly great
services in their day, but with their demise the
functions of Government did not cease. AS be-
fore those events, the rises and SETS and nei.
