and Was received by the Democracy present with

CONSTITUTIONS and the Union
Daily State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1861-1865, 1862-07-16

1t seems, from motto, 5 we find in our exchange
papers, that Secret Abolition Societies, to which
we referred last week, are being formed through
out the Northern States We copy the following
from the Dayton Empire:
Some weeks since referred to the fact that
a secret Abolition league had been discovered in
Pennsy lvania, the object of which was not to re
store the Union or to maintain the Constitution,
but to secure the abolition of slavery at all haz
ards. \ similar organization has been discovered
in Illinois, and doubtless exists throughout all
the Northern and Western States. The Abo-
litiOnists determined, cost what it may, to
secure the entire success of their ultra doctrines
And the members of this same league be il re-
membered, will he active participants in and we
doubt not control, the action of the so called
Union Conventions throughout the North. They
will profess 10 be Union, merely To obtain power
and position to carry out tie principles Of the
league referred To. Ii is the duty of the Democ-
racv and other conservatives to keep alOof from
all union with such men.
1t Is the duty OF the people to to crush out
such fanatics The AbOlitionists are as much
responsible for the troubles which exist in the
country as are the sece>siOnists of the South.
The country can not have peace, the COnstitu-
ton not be maintained. nor the Union re
stored, 80 long the Sectiontsts in our mids t
are upheld and endorsed by the people To
unite with them would be simply to furnish them
laid and comfort" and give them opportunities
for doing evil. which they would not otherwise
possess. TO place them in Office. would he but
record our approval OF their ultra tctiOn la the
past and secure H. continuance in q e future
The ouly remedy the people have Is 10 unite
with that party which has ever been the firm de-
fender OF the Constitution. aud advocate OF the
Union. well as the opponent OF Aboltionism-
that party which to day carries the old Jefierso
MAN banner and boldly stands forth as the cham
pion OF 1.-The Union a. il was, and the ConStitu-
ton IS il j. and the interests OF the white men
and the enemv alike of Secessionsm South, and

have no more doubt that they occurred just as
stated than have OF my own existence. j know
similar acts disrraced the same brigade OF our
army when We occupied Bowling Green, Ky,
and the matter was hushed up 20 save the credit
of our army, hoping il would occur no more: but
this leniency failed to rave It's proper effect, and
IL : no longer ends.able- The good of the ser
vice and the character OF every Union soldier

disgraeeful conduct. 4 am yours, &c,

We could hardly give credence to the above
story but are told that il IS even worse than this
correspondent relates. The conduct of some OF
these men was the worst licentious and brutal
sole'ery could infiict upon deienseless women; so
vile. indeed. that an officer of the army who re
CARDS the honor Of his cloth has determined 20
lay the matter before the Government. We do
not doubt that the men who have committed the
horrible crimes alleged well those who
winked at il, will meet with swift and retrbutive
justice. The honor Of the army calls for il and
humanity demands it--L0uisriiIe Express.

Democratic Union State Ticket
Records.

The Cincinnati Commercial takes great pleas
ure in attempting TO fasten dislOyalty upon It's
political opponents. In March, 1861. after seven
States had seeded and set up the "Confederate
States" Government. that paper gave expression
10 the following sentiments:
We are not in favor OF blockading the South
ern coast We are not in favor OF retaking by
force the property Of the United States now in
possession Of the seceiers. We would recognize
the existence Of government formed OF all the
slavehoIding States. and attempt TO cultivate
amicable relations with it.
II the Commercials views had been adopted,
we should have had no war. no waste of blood
and treasure. but two separate and independent
Confeleracies No ranker disunion sentiments
have been uttered. yet we hear of no threats of
mobbing the Commercial for what would have
been regarded heinous crime in a Democrat.

them by the Constitution, act promptly that
Constitution and the Union of which it Is the
bond. will both be destroyed by the combined ct
forts of the Abotionists at the North, and the
mad violence of the secessionists-
Both have long c0nspired 90 destroy the Union
for different ends and reasons; and their object
will be consummated. unless the People, who love
their Government their Fathers made IL, come
TO the rescue.
Ii il in vain to attempt to disguise the fact
that the leaders of the Republican party, in aud
out of Congress, have combined with the Ab0li-
tionists. and are now the Abolition party. They
may tell you hey are for putting down the rebel
lion, and "resoye" that this war j. not waged
for revenge, but to maintain the Union and en-
force the laws, and when this Is done the war
should cease Some who tell you so. by their
votes. acts and speeches, in Congress and out OF
it, falsify the statement.
IL is now the avowed doctrine OF the majority
IN Congress, whether they were elected as RePub-
lcans or as Abolitionists, that this war shall not
cease, the Union be restored until every slave
in the United States shall be emancipated.

THE Car LET OUr--Judge Bishop, leading
Republican OF Cleveland. is writing letters 10 the
Herald of that city, in which he declares that one
OF the main objects in starting the bogus Union"
movement was to break up the Democratic party.
This object having iailed--but few of the weak
ened and headed brethren having been
caught--it is now proposed to let the Union party
'slde." and revive the old Abolition Republican
party again.-MOunt Vernon Banner.
