The Tory Programme.

When, during the recent Canvass, we
charged that it was the intention of the
Tory party to restore JESSE D. Bright
to the seat in the United States Senate
from which he was expelled for holding
reasonable communication with the enc
my, our charges were denounced as abb
surd Just what foundation we had for
insisting that the Tory programme, in.
cluded the reinstatement of the base con.
spirator, may be correctly estimated from
the following article which appeared, ed
itorially, in the Cincinnati Enquirer
since the election:
!" It's settled that the Democrats have
a majority in both branches of the Indi.
ana Legislature. This gives them the
power to elect United States Senator
for the short session of Congress, COM
mencing in December, 1862, and ending
on the 4th of March, 1868, in place Of
Hon. Joseph A. Wright, who now holds
the seat by the appointment of Governor
Morton, and also Senator for the term
of six years, commencing at the last
named date.

ARMY OF THE PoToMAC, FAIRFAx, Va,
October %, 1862.
Messrs H. r. Lou, Chairman, Benz.
Field, Secretary, Nec York:
GENTLEMEN: Your invitation to ad-
dress the citizens of the State of New
York, in support of the National Admin
istration and the vigorous prosecution
of the war, is received.
am obliged to decline your invitation,
but at the same time can give you no
stronger assurance of my most earnest
cooperation in the vigorous prosecution
of the war than my present relations to
the army of the United States.
ASS man, a citizen, and soldier,
feel deep interest in such a prosecution
of the war as win result in its speedy and
honorable termination. To this end /
have tried to do my utmost, and | can
testify to the earnestness of the brave
soldiers who have served under me- The
people have furnished the men and
means, the soldiers have done their part,
and if there is any blame that the war is
not ended lay it not to the soldiers.
New York is central power in the
nation, controlling to large extent the
tendencies of every other State. Hence
the responsibilities of her people are
fearfully great, and one error may in
volve the nation in ruin.
In your approaching election, had /
the privilege, / would appeal to the peo-
pie of your State as l would to my sol
diers in the face of the enemy, and beg
them by every consideration that could
move the heart of patriot to do their
duty without regard to selfish considera-
tons.
1t is an enormous crime to expose
our devoted soldiers to the fury of uni
ted, determined, and vigorous enemy, on
account of any hesitancy to use the right
means at the right time, or by placing
men in high and responsible positions
who, on account of their former associa
tions and pledges, can never be trusted
as sincere friends of this Republic, mol
expected to strike fatal blow to Trea
son and Rebellion.
This Republic is in danger, and canno
be saved by those who sympathize with
the Rebellion, who contemplate disgrace
full compromises, or who aim at the es
tablishment of Slave Empire.
Peace cannot exist while two antago
nistic principles govern in this land
Therefore every Republican and patriot
should stand to the colors which honor
and protect him, and should vote fol
those candidates only who are tried, like
Wadsworth; who are the most earnestly
devoted to the vigorous prosecution Of
the war, and are in favor of such mean,
as will permanently introduce Liberty
into the South.
l am, very respectfully,
your obedient servant,

[Geo. Washington, April II, 1856.

which they are held is a striking evidence
of the benevolence of your heart. y

Senator Douglas on the Suspension
of the Writ of Habers Corpus.

The following is an extract from the
celebrated speech of Judge Douglas on
the bill to refund the fine imposed on
General Jackson, by Judge Hall, of New
Orleans, delivered in the House of Re-
presentatives:
The necessity, and the glorious effect
resulting from the cause which that me-
cessity prompted, were acknowledged by
the whole country, and he would even
say by the whole civilized world Then,
as far as this bill was concerned, he
(Mr. d. could not say whether their acts
were legal or illegal. He cared not
whether General jackson violated the
Constitution or not He cared not
whether General Jackson suspended all
civil authority or not
If his acts were necessary to the de-
fense of the country, that necessity was
above all law. Gen. jackson hazarded
everything; he hazarded both life and
reputation on that step, which might
render him immortal if he saved the
country, or, on the contrary, make him
ignominious, and a by-word and a re-
prUavhS and the man who dared to do
that deserved the protection and plaudits
of his country He did not envy the
feelings of that man who could get up
and talk calmly and coolly under such
circumstances, about rules of court and
techicalities of proceedings, when the
city might be in flames, and the utmost
barbarity might be committed. What
were the rules of court but mere cob
webs when they found an enemy with his
cannon at the doors of their courts, and
they saw the flames encircling the Gu
pola? Talk then about the rules of
courts and the formalities of proceed
ings? The man that would do this would
fiddle while the capitol was burning. He
could not envy any man the possession
of such stoical philosophy
Talk about illegalityl Talk about for
malitiesl Why, there was but one for
mality to be observed, and that was the
formality of directing the cannon, and
destroying the enemy, regardless of the
means, whether it be the seizure of cot
ton bags, or the seizure of persons, if the
necessity of the case should require it
The God of Nature conferred this right
on men and nations, and, therefore, let
him not be told that it was uneonstitu-
tional to use the necessary means.
The constitution was adopted for the
protection of the country, and under that
! constitution the nation had the right to
exercise all the power that was necessa-
ry for the protection of the country II
The daily Evansville journal. (Evansville, Ind.) 1862-1863, 1862-10-30

1t will be remembered that Governor
Wright now holds the place, because an
AbolitionSmajority in the United States
Senate expelled Mr.. Bright for no other
reason in the world except that he was a
Democrat They had just as much right
to expel any other member as Mr. Brig ght.
Under this view of the case, we submit
to our Democratic friends whether State
rights and vindication of the Demo
cratic creed does not require that the
act of the Abolition Senate be rebuked
by the election of the man, uniustly
turned out, to his old place. His ap-
pearance on the floor again would be a
just retribution. He was elected to
serve until next March, and should be
permitted to do so.
As to the Senator for six years we
would not obtrude our advice. The de-
mocracy of Indiana have many able.
worthy and true men who would do hon
or to the seat But for the short term
the Democracy of Ohio would like to see
foul act rebuked by the election of Mr..
Bright

martial law was necessary to the saliva
ton of the country, martial law was legal
for that purpose. If it was necessary for
a judge, for the preservation of order, to
punish for contempt, he thought it was
necessary for a general to exercise con-
troll over his cannon, to imprison traitors,
and to arrest spies, and to intercept com
munications with the enemy. If this was
necessary, this was legal.
