A Startling SuggestIon--AnOt
Conspiracy.
Prom an editorial in The Cincinnati Times.

There is another aud more serious
view of the case. AR army may be re-
quired, IN rery short tiRle, to put dossa an
other rebellion, after The present organized re-
5fiiion has been disperAed.'
The readers OF the Times will free MS
from the imPutation of being alarmists.
though constantly putting the people on
their guard. we were among the first TO
warn the people to prepare for the present
rebellion, and subsequent events justified
every warning we had uttered. We now
say, in all cAndor and frankness, that upon
the troubled seas we see palpable indica-
tioRs OF another conspiracy against the
Union. Oar poor bleeding country has GER
tainly fallen upon evil times, and is passing
through the era of conspiracies. We are
reaping the awful and bloody harvest of
long years of political corruption, and
Coo only knows when the fearful work
will end.
1t iswell known that the Southern con-
spiracy had its branches all through the
Northern States. The Northern cOnspira-
tors were bold and defiant, until the mighty
uprising Of the people crushed them to the
coercion, and hold the pIundered and fee
BILE arm of the Government from striking
blow for its existence. They justified the
rebellion. and advocated the recognition
of the independence of tue seeded States
1t has since been declared that these men
pledged the support of New York, Pennsyl-
vania aud the Northwestern States to the
support of the rebellion, the original design
being the reorganization of the Union with
out New England, but with Mexico, divided
into several slave States.
Mnny=of these Sortaern conspirators fled
to the South and are in the rebel service.
Others played the spy, and have time aud
again betrayed our armies. Bright, who,
after the fall of Sumter, declared he could
raise more soldiers for the rebel cause in
Indiana than he could for the Lincoln Gov
ernment, was suffered to remain in the Sen
ate during the most critical period ofthe
rebellion; aud leading, bold, audacious
sEmpathizers still hold seats in Congress.
These men never were, never will be,
loyal to the Government of the United
States. Their souls are dyed in treason
and the stain is iudelible
Tney have again thrown off the cloak,
and speak boldly They take the position
of restoring "ihe Union as it was" which
means the alteration of treason, and moth
ing else. In their public speeches, they
exhibit the same sentiment aud the same
spirit that characterized the secession par
ty in the South, at the commencement of
80 AASSfaAS'A- -4@hTA tltluk luusk UG ShCEi-
iced TO the institution of slavery. ard he
who does not agree to The sacrifice is an
Abolidouist, politically, socially, aud eter-
nAily accursed. As in the secession move
ment, these declare tons, and the audacious
spirit with which they are hurled, are the
symptoms of an armed organization as yet
hidden from sight.
In fact, one Western Governor has pub
licly announced the existence of such or
CARNATIONS in his STATE, aud warned the
people ugainst all come elton with il. II
this be true, ana it is our most solemn con-
Viction that it is, the organization extends
through all the States. The next move
ment, US ut the South, will be to earyy the
election bY.f force Of arms To take posses
sion OF the polls, and through armed mcbs,
forbid 81 fair expression, and by such means
force, against tl.e will OF the people, n class
of men into the Congress of the United
States who will sell Government, Coastitn-
ton, Union and ali. TO the doub!y damaed
traitors OF the South. Or failing in that,
produce general state OF anarchy through
out the whole couulry. {
II is our opinion that such a conspiracy
is in existence; that it is known to the
leaders of the present rebellion. who are
thus iniuced to prolong the war until after
the fall elections; aud we think it not uu-
likely that the Governors of the LOYAL
States are convinced of the necessity of
preparing for the exigency, Three hun
dred thousand more men are not required
to suppress the Southern rebellion. The
present army, properly managed, is large
enough for that good work, but great
force may be required, and that shortly, to
crush out another conspiracy, more infer
nal, and intended to be MORE bloody.
We have given the warning. 1t The
people who love country nose than party,
peace above war, TO think aud ACT.
These are indeed serious tines The
Permanency of the Republic depends on
the vigilance of every loyal citizen, and be
who fails to exercise that vigilance, is an
obstacle in the preservation of his own lib
critics. More than ever does anarchy stare
US in the face.
