An TSCoEsIsTENoY.-MrH Hendricks in
al his speeches, says, that the "nig-
gers are lazy and won't work; that a
white man will do twice as much work
in day as negro, and do it much bet
ter In the next breath Mr.. Hendricks
says that freeing the negroes will reduce
the rate of wages, That they will work
for so cents day, and white man will
not therefore be able to get 81, or 81 %
per day. If his first proposition is true
the last is false If white man will do
twice the amount of work that negro
would, and do it better, it would evident
ly be the interest of the employer to hire
the white man in preference to the negro,
even If he had no regard to color.
Both propositions are false. Some ne
groes are industrious and some are lazy
and trifing; so are some white men.
Hendricks only used the argument to
make political capital and prejudice the
minds of the unthinking. His PROPOSE.

b9- There appears to be stimuli
taneous effort made by the rebels on
the entire line of defence from the Poto-
mac to the border of Kansas, to march
north and invade the free States This
policy was announced more than month
ago in the Richmond papers.
On the 30th of July we made this de-
ductiou from the lights then before us,
using the following language in the Jour
nal of that date: In less than thirty
days the seat of war viii be the Ohio Dor
der This was not said in the spirit of
prophecy. Itwas the conclusion at which
every rejecting man would have arrived
who gave his attention to the movements
then going on A few days afterwards,
with new information before US, we ex-
pressed the belief that the whole rebel
army of the West was being moved to-
wards Kentucky, and it was not improba
Bile that Richmond would be abandoned,
and the rebels make desperate attempt
to break through our lines. by way of East
Tennessee and Kentucky. The move
ments Indicating this purpose on the part
of the rebels, and the belief that if not
promptly met they would carry out their
sprogramme, were communicated to Genl
Boyle at Louisville, but no steps that we
are aware of were taken to prepare for
the emergency To be sure, small
force of raw militia was sent into Ken
lucky and distributed in small squads at
remote intervals, where they simply
served as ailurements to the guerrillas,
by whom they were gobbled up at leisure,
furnishing tina rebels with large guam
tity of firearms in the aggregate, and
vast quantity of stores and supplies.
Just one month from the date of the
first warning we gave an account of
desperate battle fought at Richmond
Kentucky, between handful of raw
troops and vast army of veteran rebel
troops, supposed to be 10000 strong, un-
der experienced officers. Of course the
Union troops could not successfully with
stand such odds, and to-day we are pre-
pairing to defend our border cities from
attack and capture. 'r
In the meanwhile Buell. with a vast
army, the finest and best disciplined in
the world is away down on the South
eastern border of Tennessee, and the
grand army of the Mississippi is scatter
tered in detachmenfs from Chattanooga
to Helena in Arkansas, achieving no
victories, and meeting no enemies The
Government and the whole people must
wake up to the magnitude of the crisis
that is-upon us. 500 -aTF i4tar

The FIGHT AT UNIoNTowN.-We have
been furnished the following account of
the fight at Uniontown,. from one of the
participants. He says;
Our little command of 146 men of the
18th Indiana regiment, was attacked by
800 mounted guerrillas under Col john
son, on Monday, Sept LIST, at l o'clock
P. NJ We fought them an hour when we
were surrounded and forced to surrender,
but not until we had killed IL and
wounded 81 guerrillas. Our loss was
one killed, Capt Howard, of Co. c. Il 20
wounded We have been paroled and
are now on our way to Indianapolis.
[Signed,] W, H. Allen.
We have heard other reports which diff
fer somewhat from the above. We hope
the facts will be elected by a court OF
inquiry.

President Lincoln this morning, in com

General John G. Fremont has not been
ordered hither, but visits Washington on
leave asked for and granted q month ago.
It is ascertained on enquiring that no
designations have been received from the
officers in the Army OF the Potomac since
the change Of commanders; and that Off
GERS who are not disposed to continue in
the service in consequence of the change,
will find no difficulty in being relieved
The story about an alleged iron clad

traceable here to an event that occurred
over a month ago, and which was soon af-
ter published. &. fI.5-
The Flambeau's rifed guns made no in

struck her. The rebel steamer run by the
Flambeau during the night.
Much that is said about the rebels
being reinforced with ircn clad vessels
from Europe finds no confirmation at the
Navy Department, which is not indifferent
to obtaining facts on that subject.
Reports Of disasters to the army OF the
Potomac, involving the safety Of Washing
ton, and the re-capture Of Harper's Ferry,
have been in circulation but have no
foundation in truth.
Governor Morgan and Collector Barney
are here in relation to the defenses of New

Departments have aceeded to their request
for adequate and immediate protection
and the requisite orders for that pUrpo sc
have already been issued.
