To this end the cry of faction must be
sileneed, and the wickedness of sedition,
whether in spirit or in public speech,
must be suppressed. These arc the
northern allies Of The rebellion. An
aroused and indignant people with iron

With such n concord God will be

be broken and scattered as by the thun-

government that best inspiration, better
than newly raised leyies, by which the
rebellion shall be struck in its single vul-
nerable part; by which that colossal
abomination, which was its original main
spring and is its present motive power
shall be ovelthrown, and by which the
cause of the Union shall be linked with

Asa Appeal 40 xoang Nfcsa@

The Troy Times addresses the follow
inc to the young men Of tho country:
a son Of Secretary Seward has just
enlisted in New York City, as private.
A son of Governor Dave Todd, of Ohio
has done the same thing. All over the
States, the best classes Of young men
graduates of colleges and academies,
sons of substantial farmers, honorable
mechanics-are coming forward and
placing their names on the roll of heroes.
There is every inducement for young
man to- enlist. No occupation offers a
more favorable field for advancement
than that of the soldier. Government
has recently established the principle Of
making promotions from the ranks-a
principle which Napoleon pronounced
the basis Of military justice.
This is q war essentially for young men.
1t is to determine whether the country
which is to be theirs shall remain elor
ious Republic or become broken coterie
of Insignificant states.
The generation now upon the Stage
must soon pass otf-shail those who fol-
low succeed to the freedom, the glory,
the power VIII ch has always been a part
Of American citizenship? Shall they
possess q land whore peace reigns, where
all the institutions of civilization are fos-
tered and developed, where to be Il man
is to be a sovereign and q happy citizen2
or shall they have transmitted 10 them a
degraded Government, dishonorable
history, broken Constitution, country
grooming under the burden Of a heavy
taxation, distracted by internccine strifies
and periled by foreign enmity, continually
agitated by internal jealousies and ley the
contempt of foreign nations-a country
such rs Mexico is to-daya These are
the questions of the hour.

A Voluntary Draft.

Let us all voluntarily draft ourselves
for the war, and whoever is too old for
military service, or otherwise incapacita-
ted let him procure a substitute. If every
one of us goes to work with a will, New
York can fill up her quotain twenty days.
If those of us who are postively unable
to enlist work rs hard, freely, to aid en-
lstEents, as we should to procure sub
stitute if we were drafted, the state quota
could be made up in fortnight. Through
out New England this is the spirit that
amin atcs the people. They are deter
mined that the enlistments shall come,
whatever binders. The men of wealth
are pledging thor means, and cities.
towns, and associations and companies of
all sorts are freely proflering every in
ducement in their power. Now let The
Empire State take the lead, rs it is her
right and title to do, and to that end, let
every man of us who can enlist to do SO
at once, and let every one who cannot
enlist consider himself drafted, and 90 to
work to procure q satisfactorily. Y.

TRAITORS IN A FREE STArE.-The Sc
cessionists Of Rush County, Ind, to the
number Of forty or fifty, attempted to
celebrate the Fourth Of July in Washing
ton township, and assembled for the
purpose in schoQl-house. The Declar-
alton Of Independence was read by a
certain DR.. Hall, who added some COM
ments Of his own, in which he compared
the condition of the rebel States of the
South with that of the revolted colonies
during the Revolution. He thought the
case precisely parallel, and our "South-
ern brethren entitled to the active sym
pathy Of all true Democrats"
The Doctor was followed by a young
man named Benson, as orator of the day.
Benson hoped to see the day when he
could vote in Indianna for Jeff Davis for
President; thought the Southern rebels
deserved not only sympathy but assist
ance from Northern Democrats. A
number Of Union men, who had heard
of the proceedings, here interfered, one,
named Steele, knocking the orator down.
Several of the rebels were severely pun
ished. and the conelave was broken up.
