THE UNION MOVE nENT.

We hope to see Union Ticket nom
innated in this State this Fall, but are
not disappointed in the failure Of the
committees To come to an arrangement;
indeed we believe it is better that com
mittees, constituted as both We're, by
partizan bodies, for partizan purposes
should have none of the management oi
movement which to be successful must
be entirely free from the trammels
tricks and subterfuges offormer political
organizations.
The great issue now, and to which
all others are subordinate, is the sup.
preston of the rebellion, and the re
storation of Governmental authority. II
we fail in this by reason of petty and
impracticable differences as to the prop.
err means, "time's sponge would be OF
no avail to blot out the disgraceiul rec.
ord from the pages of American history,
and the troubles which would follow
from the further division AMI disrup
ton of the nation incident to such a
disaster are beyond the power of por.
trayal. Already, by crowding untimely
issues, before, by victories in arms they
had become necessary or practical, the
cause of the Union has been immeasur.
ably damaged and that of the rebellion
correspoddingly strengthened, and it is
time for The People to see to it that
no more legislation save that of lawful
anil practical character is countenanced
and no new complications added to our
already distressingly complicated state
of affairs; to this end right thinking men
of whatever political procliyities must
act in concert if they would effect any
beneficial results.
We believe that union movement
can be effected in this State without
compromising any whose sentiments are
for "ihe Union, against all corners, and
that such "union for the sake of the
Union" would be productive of the best
of results in allaying partizan strife, pre-.
venting contention, and bringing the
minds of the people to full realization
of the extreme peril 10 which the nation
is involved. That such union may
be effected we are confident is the wish
of large proportion of tho leading men
of both political parties in the Saginaw
Valley.

Those Armed Indians i'm Saginaw
vaiicy--Elc Whole Story Clear
cd-Lctter from the Indian Agent.
DETROIT, Sept. 10Th, 1862.

To the Editor of the Advertiser and Tribune
was greatly surprised to find in
your paper of today a letter from OF. b.
F." of East Saginaw, in reference to
apprehended Indian troubles. Whether
your correspondent ha himself become
frightened, or was seized with desire
to brighten others, cannot say. What.
ever the motive which prompted him to
write, it is much to be regretted that
such letter should have found its way
into the public prints. 1t is cruel, in.
deed, thus to tribe with the feelings of
the timid That letter will go to hun.
dreds of humble homes in our new set.
Elements and cause many little hearts to
palpitate with unnecessary fear.
l say unnecessary fear, because there
is no danger of trouble with our Indi-
ans, | am more among them than any
other man in the State, | have forty ia.
telligent persons employed among them
from whom | hear frequently on all mat.
ters of interest. Hence, | may safely
say that my facilities are superior to
those of any other person for knowing
what is going on among them.
There are not in all that part of Mich.
igan over four husired and try (450)
Indian men capable of bearing arms,
aud | will stake my reputation for yer.
acity upon the assertion, that at the
very time Il. Il. +. was pennng his let.
tor three-fiiths of these were at home
and about their legitimate business.
They are peaceful and friendly
They are too well-informed, too much
under the influence of whites, and too
well disposed towards US to contemplate
hostilities. Many of them are quite in
telligent and speak English well, while
not few of them are readers of the
newspapers. Very many OF them are
members OF Christian churches, and are
greatly influenced by the missionaries
and teachers who are among them.
Your correspondent says: "Therc
are now encampcd at various points in
the Saginaw Valley no less than two
thousand armed Indians" Why, dear
sir, there are not 1000 Indians, all told,
in the Saginaw Valley. AT the time of
the annual payment last fall, there were
less than 900, including all--men,
women aud children.

peat what has been so oftea said in
regard to the material of the regiment.
No finer body Of men ever entered the
service, and though during their brief
stay here the men have exhibited chcor
fi,Ilnes and exhuberence of spirits which
betokens true aud hardy courage,
there has been so little of rudencss in

them the respect and esteem of our
