ON BUFFERS PROCLAMATION.

The condition Of affairs in the American
civil war exhibits no prospect Of improve
ment. II is not merely that the yicissitudes
in the military struggle destroy in a single
week the chances which the week previous
appeared to secure 10 one side speedy tri-
umph over the other. This is by no means
the worst or most ominous sign that the
contest will be long protracted. A much
more alarming symptom is TO be found in
the apparent recklessness Of the Federal
military chiefs as TO the course to be pur-
sued respecting the Confederate popuIa-
,ions over which they have conquered a
nominal sovereignty. We have heard great
deal about the inhabitants Of the Southern
towns being subjected TO reign OF terror.
II has been stated over and over again, that
the revolutionary con mittees had oyerawed
the vast majority Of the citizens that mum.
bers had been compelled TO declare them
selves in favor Of the Confederate cause
wholly against their will and il was assert
ed that with the first appearance Of the
Stars and Stripes the yoke Of this tyrannic
minority would be joyfuIly thrown on. II

have called forth Gen. Buffers late astound.
ing proclamation, this can scarcely be the
case.
The contents and character of that docu-
ment form certainly the most extraordinary
episode. in the present American struggle.
AT fret We could scarcely bring ourselves
to believe its tsgenuineness. The proclamation,
dated May rs, and purporting 70 be issued al
headquarters department ofthe Gulf, Is 20 the
effect that the officers and soldiers Of the u.
States have been exposed to insulting treat
ment from certain women calling themselves
"ladies Of New 0rleansw These insults,
il is affirmed, have no justification the
New Orleans women, "calliag themselves
ladies'" have been treated with singular ds

about eight quarts to an ordinary two horse

The same plan Of course, applies to the
Egyptian Millet or Chinese Sugar Cane fod-
der. In drilling either of these for fodder
SOW very thickly in the drill so that it may

and "stalky." Be sure, also. 10 make the
land deep and rich.
Cutting up Corn-Stalks for Fodder.-We
will offer another hint for the consideration
Of our readers. II is to cut up the stalks Of
your regular corn crop, at the ground as
soon as the ears begin to glaze, or get hard !;
set up in shocks every ten or fifteen hills
thus cut, and when the whole is perfectly
dry, haul under cover or carefully stack
up; shuck or strip off the ears az your leis-
ure and save all the stalks. blades and shucks
for the winter feeding Of stock. This hint
is especially intended for small planters
those who aim only to raise sufficient corn
for their own use. and who desire to make
the most Of it, and 10 save all that is worth
saving. Our objections against fodder pull
ling, las before stated) are that il is slow
and laborious process, and that the yield and
weight Of the grain is lessened by prema-
turely depriying the plant Of its leaves. II
fodder is pulled before the grain becomes
glazed. you certainly injure The grain; and
if you do not pull until the ears are fully
ripe, the fodder is nearly worthless. The
proper plan is to cut up corn as directed,
just when the grain is passing from the
doughy state TO the hard kernel. At this pc
riod Of its growth, the plant has elaborated
sufficient sap to mature the grain perfectly
after il is cui, and the surplus starch, gum
and saccharine matter which il contains, will
be preserved in the stalk and leaves, instead
of being changed to hard. pithy and worth
less fibre, as when the plant is allowed to
become perfectly dead ripe. Another ad-
vantage in thus cstting up corn is that az
soon as il is hauled of, The ground is clean
and ready for the pillow, and after il has re-
ceiyed good manuring. you can proceed
Immediately with The sowing Of your Win
ter Oats, Rye, Barley, Clover. &c. Let
those who have scanty crops try il even on
small scale. and they will, we doub. not,
be well pleased.

fact that no instance has occurred during the

THE RECORD OF SECESSION In
INDIANA. 4

There are thousands, if not a majority, of
the adherents of the 8th-of-January party
ho are as resoluteiy opposed to the sur
surrender of the Government to the rebels,
or the recognition of their mushroom Con-
federacy, as eny of the professed Union
men, They do not wsnt tie Government
instituted by Washington, to be superctded
by that of jeff. Davis, or BUNDLED by the
defeat of its armies, or the prostration of its
credit They are as truly patriotic, and as
6smly fixed in the purpose to sustain the
Government in all that relates to the con-
duet Of the war, as any men in the country.
Bnt they believe that they can do this just
as well in the Democratic party and while
opposing the civil policy of the Admins
lration, as not. They don't like to give up
til name of Democrat, or abandon party
they have SO long been associated with
| They do not see how easily and inevitably
party organized in direct opposition to
the Administration during a war, will drift
into hostility to the war, and do not believe
it will. Hence they cling to the remnant
of the Democratic party. Why can't
they be Democrats aud patriots tooP is
their not unreasonable reply to the sugges-
present, ought to be abandoned.
To such men we desire to present few
facts to show them that while they mean to
be genuine patriots, and firm supporters of
the cause of the Government, those who
lead them, select their party positions, de-
clare its views, ard direct its course, mean
something very different. And adberiug
to the party, following the name of "Demo-
! 81 NH and or1
party with the same unthinking devotion
as in time Of peace, they will surely be
brought to any position their lsaders desire
to give them. We wish them TO stop and
think what the facts We present mean, to
what they lead, before resolving to go with
such an embodiment of "Democracy" to the
end. If they do not want to be made sup.
porters and instruments to carry out the
policy indicated by these facts, they had
better stop now.
The Ser tinel of this city was endorsed
by the 8th-of, January Convention as just
exponent of the views of the party. 1t was
again endorsed in the secret circuIar of the
State Central Committee dated June Is,
1862, and signed by George McOuat, chair
man, in the following terms;
"The State Central Committee urge upon
you the importance of circulatig sound
Democratic newspapers. Your own county
paper, if you have one, and the central organ
of the party, the Indiana State Sentinel"
- The convention of the Sth of January,
1862, endorsed the Sentinel's course up to
that time, and the State Central Committee
endorsed and adopted it up to June 18th
In the Sentinel, therefore, we shall find an
authoritative declaration of the views of the
party. Let US trace them from the begin
ming of our difficulties. On Wednesday,
