Great Union Meetings In Henderson
aud CarroIl--Iron. Isaac Hawkins
on the stump.
Editor Of The Nashville Union;
We have had great Union meetings in
old Henderson and Carroll. On the oath
Of June there was q large crowd in Lex
ington, Henderson, 70 hear Union speeches
once more and there was a perfect ground
swell Of the masses--the largest crowd
ever assembled in old Henderson were
present, and the speeches were of the
right kind, true, patriotic and uncom-
promising with treason.
On the 9th Of July, there was a great
Barbecue at Buona Vista in Carroll, and
there were some fifteen hundred or two
thousand people present The Hon. ISAAC
HAWKINS was the speaker, and he made
one of'the most powerful speeches Of his
life. II was calm and dignifed, and at
the same time very decided for his gov
eminent. Sir, you may rest assured that
old Henderson and Carroll are all right
for the Union, and are getting more SO
every day, for the people are getting tired
| of this unnatural and destructive war;

Bad memory or a great change !

The Louisville Democrat gives the fol-
lowing "stunner" to the wretched incon-
sistency and higher lawism of the South
orn Skedadderacy:
Georgia, 10 common with almost all
the States, has protested against the con-
scription. A rich controversy has grown
out of il, and we can conclude that the
sick cliild" whom jeff. Davis is said TO
have left Richmond to attend on, is Gov.
Brown. The President has prescribed
for the Governor in letter which re-
minds us of the interchangeable Wise, of
letter writing distinction. jeff. argues
the constitutionality of the act and
stumbles upon some truths that are all
the more spicy for their origin. He says
The main, if not only purpose for
which independent States form Unions or
ConiederatiOns is to complete the power
OF the several members in such a man
ner as to form one united force in all re-
lations with foreign powers, whether in
peace or war. Each State, amply COM
petent TO administer and control its own
domestic Government, yet too feeble to
successfully meet powerful nations, seeks
safety by uniting with other States in
like condition, and by delegAting to some
common agent the combined strength of
all in order to secure advantageous COM
merclal relations in peace, and to carry
on hostilities with effect in war.
Beautiful Sweet are the uses Of ad-
yersity jeff doesn't add the benefits
accruing from breaking up these Unions
Just about the time they are strong enough
TO repel invasion, carry on war, or estab-
lish commercial relations. IL is true,
however, and rare admission from JEFF
"a hint to Georgia that if she doesn I
like the CONSUMPTION she had better, or
one of these Unions (to-wit c. s. A
will, TO establish commercial relations
&. C., cOcrce the rebellious State.

CuerrIIIns in kentucky.

The Louisville Democrat gives the fol-
lowing summary of the exploits Of the
guerril!as in Henderson county, in South
crn Kentucky:
The rebels in Henderson county have
been pursuing their usual vocation Of
robbing and plundering and assassinn-
ton.
Seven scoundrcls went TO the house Of
Thomas Mcfarland, where he lived along
with his sister. They fred into his house
three times, when they entered il; told
his sisSer they would not hurt her, but
would kill her brother; that they had
him surrounded, and he could not escape
He did escape, however, by a back way,
in his shirt and drawers. They got
about forty dollars cash; broke a gun they
found TO pieces, and took .wo Of the best
horses.
They visited the house Of j. c. Walk
err, where they took seventy-hye dollars,
and beat Walker numerically, because
they couldn't find the money readily.
One Of the scoundrels had got The money
and did not tell his associates in vii
lainy.
They robbed a man by the name Of
Ronk Of seventy dollars, put a rope
round his neck, and threatened to hang
him; but at last they let him go.
They robbed a store near Kings
Mills
They robbed a man by the name of
Ferguson of about three hundred dollara'
worth Of store goods.
They went 10 a mau's house by the
name Of Harris, and warned him 10 leave,
pointing their guns at him. He had 10
leave, abandoning his home and his crop,
although he is a poor man, and has a
family depending on him.
We give these only as specimens. They
are not all the details we could give,
Stealing horses and taking arms from all
the Union men they can find is the COM
mon practice.
They have stolen nearly all the free
negroes in the country, sent them South
/ and sold them.
A man Of property by the name Of
Hicks has the creditof a leader ia these
raids aided by one named Fisher.
There is now no force in Henderson
county 10 control these scOundrels, anC
we expect they will be morer ampan
/ than ever

We have wealthy men in this city who
make no secret Of sympaihizing with the
Southern Confederacy The whole Of
their influence is exertod against the
Federal Government, and for the Confed-
eracy. The fact that leading citizen of
the capital Of Tennessee is a friend 70 the
cause Of treason is an encouragement TO
multitudes Of others 20 become traitors,
and 10 continue so. Such a citizen is
like an old and dccayed tenement stand
ing by a residence. II is a breeding
place for bugs, serpents and all sorts Of
yermin. Such a nuisaneeN disloyal
man Of property and hence. It is
often said that such one does not take
part in the rebellion because he does not
bear arms, but IL would be far better for
the loyal cause if he would. One foe
in ambush, is more dangerous than ten in
open arms. The latter you may resist,
but the former stabs you in the dark. We
have plenty Of citizens in the county, also,
whose houses are rendezvous for rebels
who have come back from the army.
Their residences are headquarters and
rellying points for tories. Wnnld 10 not
be far better for The FederalGoyernment TO
seize on such mans property, his land
and all he has got and drive him into the
rebel army, than to permit him to lie in
ambush and fight us behind our backs
II is time that we were breaking up these
lurking places Of the rebels.
