WITHOUT ANY AUTHoRITY.-Its seems that
the call for Union Convention to be held
in this county on Saturday last, made in
the Evansville Journal of the 9th inst, was
done without any authority whatever from
any of the citizens of this place; at least,
no one could be found who would own up
that he had authorized such a CALL We
can hardly believe that the Journal would
take such step on its own hook, as the
people ia this county are amply qualified to
attend 10 their own domestic affairs in their
own way, subject only to the Constitution
of the United States. Hands off Mr.. Jour-
nal. Leave us alone in our glory.-RocE-
port Democrat
We received letter from gentleman
residing in Rockport, requesting US to no.
tice the meeting aforesaid, which we did in
good faith. He says in his letter, " We
expect to hold, on Saturday next, a conven-
ton, to nominate delegates to attend the
Peoples Convention to assemble at In
dianapolis on the 18th proximo." We
trust the gentleman will at least assume re-
sponsibility for the announcement.

INDrANAPoLIs, June lS, 1852.
The Union Mass Convention to-day has
proved to be all the NEST sanguine hoped
for. The numbers in attendance is .upusp.
ally large, comprising most Of the leading
Republicans Of the State, together with
large number of appointment men who have
always hitherto acted with the Democratic
and other parties in opposition to the Re-
publicans. On Tuesday Dighta large meet
ing was held in the Hall of the House of
Representatives, presided over by Hon. Thos.
l.. Smith, of New Albany.
The meeting was addressed by Hon. Dan.
Mace, John Vawter, Sen, John L. Smith,
Douglas elector in the Fort Wayne Dis
trict in $780, and Judge Goodfng of Han
cock. The best of good feeling prevailed,
and this open or interlude was a pleasant
omen to what the mnltitudes in the CITY
had a right to expect to- day.
The hotels were all craunmed and damned
to overfpwing, and many unable to obtain
lodgings, "ran all night" The morning
trains added hundreds to the already
crowded city, and views were beipo Az.
changed on all the street corners, in parlors
dining rooms, and, we have no doubt. in
some of the saloons around tie city.
The Convention met at 10 o'clock in the
State House Yard, which soon presented a
most animated spectacle.
John T. Elliott, Of Henry county, WAS
nominated as temporary Chairman.
Mr.. Elliott, on taking the chair, made
strong, fervent and patriotic speech, stating

The following are the letters to which
our correspondent refers as having been
read by Gov. Morton: ~
BLooMINeroN, IND, June 16, 1862.
To His ESceAsney, Goo. o. p. Horton:
SIR 1t is fact of such public notorie-
ty here that a secret political society has
been organized 10 the adjoining county of
Brown, which is understood to be hostile to
the payment of direct taxes to support the
war, that it may well be inferred that TIE
rumors of the existence of similar bodies in
other parts Of the State are not altogether
without foundation. Should any consider
able portion of the people of Indiana be
entrapped into associations of that kind in
times like these, it may lead to conse-
quences of the most grave and serious char
Rcter.
Ny opinion is, that they are spreading
rapidly throughout the State. Entertain
ing this belief, I deem it proper to call the
attention of your Excellency, officially, to
the subject, in the hope that you may, upon
proper evidence of its extent and true char
aeter, in some public manner, warn the
good citizens of the State against them,
and, should it become necessary, take the
proper steps to bring the subject before the
Courts of justice. GCheers.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient seryant

G6F@ The precaution taken by the Gov
eminent to suppress all kinds Of military
intelligence, except such as it sees proper
to circulate, necessarily prevents US from
having a clear idea of the situation in the
Valley of the Shenandoah. AT last ac-
counts, Fremont bad fallen back to Mt.
jackson, and Gen. Shields had retreated to
Front Royal. Both of these officers seem
to have met With serious repulse Gen.
Shields command, We fear, was badly cut
up and scattered. This morning we have a
report that Secretary Stanton had again
called on the Governors of the various
States to know how many men they can
furnish or short notice. This item, if true,
adds another shade of gloom to the man
ner iu which affairs have been managed in
the Valley. What the trouble is, we are
unable to discover, unless it be there are
too many Major Gererals-all good ones.
Perhaps the President will be helping the
good cause along by removing the four

knowledge of the 18th and 18th induces
the belief that they, too, suffered severely

corps, and it is equally plain that so long as
they act disconueetedly, Jackson will bid
them defiance if be does not destroy them
in detail. Having been so successful in his
attack on General Banks, it is not unlikely
that be has been re-euforced by General
Johnston to such an extent that he outnum-

so long as they keep in separate bodies.
The probabilities are that General Nc
Clellan will not risk an attack on Rich

son, effect junction with Mcclellan, cap
ture the rebel capital, and wind up the war
in a food of glory.
