WEEKLY SENTINEL.

MONDAY.
An Inquiry.

In response to the call of General BOYLE for
troops, Governor morton sent six new regiments
into Kentucky, to aid in repelling the threatened
invasion Of that State. So urgent were the ne
cessities of the case, the Governor concluded to
send them off without appointing the command
ers of the regiments, and at his suggestion six
prominent and experienced officers rendered their
services, to act in the capacity of ColOnels until
His Excellency had opportunity to select their
commandants. Those regiments were composed
of raw troops without discipline or drill or field
officers who understood the duties of
their positions. Two of those regiments, the
Seth and list engaged in the disastrous bat
tie at Richmond, Kentucky, but evi-
dence that the volunteer Colonels we're in COM
mand. We believe that Major General LEWIS
WALLACE volunteered to take charge of the Goth,
and Major General LOVE of the list. Was it
right for these distinguished officers to absent
themselves from their voluntary commands at a
time when their services most needed
when danger was imminentF So far as We are
advised, not a man connected with those reg-
ments. either officers or privates, we're ever un-
der fire. What excuse or apology can be
offered for placing these regiments IN the
aeld without the experienced officers who
had voluntarily assumed command, being with
them? Who have charge of the regiments that
General NORRIS and General REYNOLDS were to
command until competent officers were substi-
tuted in their places General DUMoST we
believe is in charge of the regiment assigned
him, and he deserves credit for fulfilling duty
he had voluntarily assumed. But what excuse
can the Others offer to the people of Indiana, and
especially to the friends of the men who have
been sacrificed by sending them into the field
without discipline, without drill and without COM
petent officers? There is fearful responsibility
resting somewhere. No more men should be put
in the field under such circumstances Ii they
are, we can look for nothing but a repetition of
the Richmond disasters

Is This TreasOni

The following is an extract from an official
dispatch from WILLIAM II. SEWARD, Secretary of
State, to Mr.. ADAMS, Minister to England, dated
April 10, 1861 1t would be denounced as trea-
sonable, if uttered by Democrat:
"For these reasons he (the President) could
not be disposed to reject cardinal dogma of
theirs (the seeding States) namely, that the
Federal Government could not reduce the seced-
ing States to obedience by conquest, even al
though he was disposed to question the PROPOSE
ton. But in fact the President willingly accepts
it as true-Only an imperial or despotc govern
ment could have the right to subjugate disaffect
ed and insurrectionary States. This Federal
Republican system of ours is, of all forms of
government the very one which is most untitled
for such llbor."

The Hiphest Honor.

On the 23d day of December, 1888, in Con-
gress assembled, Gen. GEORGE WASHINGTON, the
Father of his Country, voluntarily rendered his
resignation to the authorities under which he had
acted The President, Mr. MIFFLIN, in respond
ing on behalf of Congress, uttered the following
eulogium:
Called upon by your country to defend its in
vaded rights, you accepted the sacred charge be-
fore it had formed alliances, and whilst it was
without funds or a Government. You have con-
Quoted the great military contest with wisdom
and forttude, invariably regarding the rights
of the civil power throughout all disasters and
changes

s THERE'S but one demagogue in the State who
pays any attention to the exploded humbug of
the Grand.Jury, by charging the existence of a
secret organizatics known as the "Knights Of
the Golden Circle" We understand that Gov.
WRIGHr takes scare, now and then, at that
spook, and tries to alarm other old women in the
same way. The friends of Uncle JOE are quite
aware of his wretched reaknsss where danger is
apprehended, and feel great sympathy for his
in6rmities They would not have him feel un-
comfortable about these villainous knights"
and it was decidedly cruel in the Grand Jury to
mention such a subject in the public papers.
Gov. WRIsHT has not yet been in the region
where it is said these viIainous knights" most
do eongregate, and he won't 60 there. But, like
brave man, he abuses them at distance.
A good story IS told Of Mr.. WRIeHr, when be
was applicant for foreign mission at the
hands Of the BUCHANAN Administration. He sp-
piled for any one which might be vacant and
Indiana State sentinel., 1862-09-15

~ Mr.. JOHN W. FoRNEY is exponent of
the STANTON policy, and he, under the pseudo
name of 50 Occasional writes as follows in the
Pess:
Another principle must certainly be embodied
in our reorganized form of government. The
men who shape the legislation of this country.
when the war is past, must remember that what
we want is power and strength. The problem will
be to combine the forms OF republican govern
ment with the powers of a monarchcal govern
ment.
1t was for saying that this has already been
done that Mr.. ISeERsoLL was arrested; but Mr..
FonSEy has not been arrested for preaching such
treason against the republic.

was willing to go any where to get away
from Indiana. The first vacancy occurred
away in one of the South American republics,
in the land of thunder. lightning and earthquakes.
1t was offered to him, and he Immediately pro
ceeded to examine the map, the locality, the eli
mate and the chances for living out his four years
if he went He then found out, for the first time,
that the country to which he was to be accredited
was remarkable for the sharp and vivid lightning,
the huge and enormous thunder and the grand
and destructive earthquakes which visited it in
the heated months. Hestood aghast at the pros
pect, wrote to Washington begging for some
place where man could go to sleep without be-
ing compelled to lie between two feather beds, to
keep the accursed lightning from rending him to
pieces Old Buck took compassion on him-for
JOE was a dear "frend of his Kansas policy
kept him away from the thunder, lightning and
earthquakes-and sent him as Minister to Prus-
sia, "where not wave of thunder rolled across
his peaceful breastl'
We do hope one will be cruel enough to
speak of the knights" in the neghborhoods
where Gov. WRIGHT may visit. 1t might create
very serious inconvenience to our quOndam
friend.
