This is usually done by one separate tap
attended by four other taps, on some bell
on court house-or engine house
These organizations now exist in Madison
Evansville, Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Rock
vile, Sullivan, Vincennes, GTeencastle, Ind,
and Paris and Nation, Illinois, which we
know of.
It is necessary to state that the initials
pretendingly stand for Mutual Protection, =
but their true meaning can be seen from
the exposition.
Does not this exposi ton let in a little
light on the sudden and fierce opposition
made by certain papers IN this State to the
payment of direct tax by an arrangement
with the Government which would avoid
the necessity of adding to the States
burthen Of taxation this year? They de-
nounced such an arrangement as shameful
dishonorable and mischievous. And so it
was, to them and their plans. 1t deprived
them of the opportunity of using the proba-
BILE discomfort of portions of the State with
the tax as a means of increasing and con-
solidating the power of their reasonable
organization. No tax to pay, no grumbling
and cursing out of which these secret nests
of treason could hatch fresh trouble No
wonder that those who had organized a
secret society to embarrass the Government
and assist the rebellion by defeating the
tax. felt bad when they found that there
might be no tax to pay, and no grist for
the treason MILL But still the society
exists, and is adding numbers every day.
We leave the public to pass judgment on
this secret " oath-b bound" " midnight" F"
society and its aims, with the remark that
: 'Know-Nothingism has got into strange
hands, and is doing strange work.

The wisdom of the step taken-we refer at
present TO that clause in the document which
declaers free the slaves of rebel States after the
LIST of January-is unquestionable; its necesi-
ty, indisputable. 1t has been declared time
and again by President Lincoln that as soon
as this step became necessity, he should
adopt it. Its adoption now is not confession
that the military means of suppressing the
great rebellion have proved failure: but sim
ply that there is point at which any other
Legitimate appliances that can be called in,
shall also be ayaied of. Slavery is an element
of strength to the rebels if left untouched: it
will assuredy prove an element of weakness
it may be of total destruction-to them and
their cause, when we make such use of it and
its victims as lies in our power. From now till
the lst of January-the day when this procla-
nation will take effects little over three
months. What may happen between now and
then, in the progress of the war, it is hard to
say. We earnestly hope, however, that by
that time, the rebellion will be put down by
military hand, and that the terrible element of
slave insurrection may not be invoked. Ii, by
that day, the rebel army be overthrown, and
their Capital captured; and, if the slavehold-
ing rebels still prove malignant, irrepressible,
and, as in the SOUTHWEST, disorganizers and
marauders, then let that which Vice President
Stephens called the cornerstone of the South
ern Contederacy be knocked from under it, and
see whether the whole fabric of rebellion will
not necessarily tumble to the ground.
