PROSPECTUS.

There are periods in the worlds history mark
ed by extraordinary and violent crises. sudden as
the breaking forth of volcano. the bursting
away in a moment the land marks of generations
new direction. 1t is then that new ideas are born
new tbs cries developed. Such periods demand
fresh expOnents, and new me for expounders.
This Continent has lately been convulsed by
an upheaving sudden and terrible that the re-
latIoms of all men and all classes to each other
are violently disturbed, and people look about
for the elements with which to sway the storm
anG direct the whrlwind. just at present We do
not know what all this is to bring fo tn: but we
do know that or. at results must flow from such
extraordinary connections.
At juncture solemn and important,
there is especial need that the intellectual force
of the county SHOULD be active and efficient 1t

boldly, and TO take position the advance guard.
To this end there is sp' cal want unsupplied

shall be open to the first intelects of the land.
and which shall treat the issues presented, and
to be presented to the country in a tone no way
tempered by partsanship. or influenced by fear,
favor, or the hope of reward; which shall seize
and grapple with the momentous subjects that
the present disturbed state of afai heave to the
surface, and which cGanOt be laid aside or neg
lected.
To meet this want. the undersigned announce
that early in December next, and monthly there
after, will be published, uader the Editorial

From the Owen County Journal, sd
A Islander Refutcd.

For some time past several of the 'loyal
Uuion-loying" citizens of Spencer have been
buSily engaged in an effort to fasten upon the
people of Owen county the stigma of a secret
reasonable organization being in existence in
this township. A Mr.. Walden was the author
quoted in support of the wonderful story.
He had witnessed the whole affair and had ex-
posedi it. Messengers were dispatched, as we are
told, to convey the painful and startling inteIli-
gence to His Excellencys the Governor. The
Grand Jury of the District Court were apprised
ct The fact and subpGnaeS issued for witnesses to
testify IN relation To the matter. From the pains
taken by several to give currency to the rumor.
we havn't a particle of doubt but they were glad
in their hearts, because it gave them food for
their depraved appetites, and might afford them
political capital TO operate upon. But to their
sad discontinue Mr.. Walden voluntarily comes
in and gives the following statement, which we
give in his own words:
by accident or cunningness on my part. / was
at a meeii. g. on the night OF the Doth of June,
1862. at Landrum's school house, in Washington
township, Owen county. Indiana; found there
John Layman, Jr., Elijah Hedrick, James He'd
rick. Miles Cline, John Cline. James Lindrum,
Samuel Layman and Washington Thompson.
Elijah Hedrick first spoke, and stated The OBJ
ject of the meeting to be, as he supposed. to or
ganize the Democrats according TO the old Jack
sonian principles. to assist in putting down the
present rebellion against the Government: that
there was a society in existence. as he was in
formed, organized to resist the Government. and
resist paying taxes, aud for other reasonable pur-
poses, called the a. Knights of the Golden Cir
Gle"
He opposed such a society, and opposed any
thing that was opposed to the Government. Ev-
cry man present expressed himself decidedly OPP
posed to the organization OF any society that
would be Injurious to the Government, by re
sisting tx paying or anything else that would in
iure the Government. So every man present was
opposed to the organization of IA society to be
called the knights of the Golden Circle" They
did not organize any such society that night, and
have not yet, that | know of. or have reported
from any knowledge of my own.
They spoke of an oath which each member of
their society was to take. 1t was in substance
that thew were to support the Constitution of the
United States. and the Constitution Of the State
of Indiana, and keep the secrets of the society
and to support the Democratic ticket, though all
Of those present say | am mistaken in regard to
the oath to support the ticket, and may be mis-
taken about il.
There was nothing said about opposing volun-
teering, or in favor of resisting the payment of
war taxes. but every person present expressed
himself just as any loyal citizen would.

The New Tariff Abroad.

The new tariff Of the United States is attacked
at every Point-both in intent and enactment
by the London Times and som of the Paris
newspapers. The Dublin Freeman's Journal, of
the 10Th instant-the latest paper-sums up the
expression Of feeling toward the measure thus:
1.-THE New United States tariff is universally
condemned throughout England and France.
Journalists whose speciality has been matters of
the economic and commercial class pronounce it
to be simply a perfect prohibition on the importa-
ton into, at least, the North American States of
all European goods; but, as against England. it
applies with especial severity and harshness. The
uldoubted effect of this new arrangement will be
that. almost Immediately on its coming into ope-
ration on the first of next month, the prices of
nearly all English and French manufactured goods
will be doubled-in some instances trebled."
