Juliet signal. [volume] (Juliet [i.e. Joliet], Ill.) 1844-1???, 1863-02-10
Hon. C. L. YaIIandisharn.

On the first page of tO-day's paper we
give synopsis of the great speech of Hon
c. l.. Vallandigham. 1t is we'll worthy Of
! perusal and contains much that is com
mendable.
No man in the North has teen mere
grossly abused and belicd than Mr.. Vul.
landigham. Every Abolition vhelp, from
Maine to California, has been yeping on
bis track ever since the present civil var
broke out. FalsehOod and villificatiou have
opened their foodgates and endeavored to
fasten the charge of treason upon him
Indeed, if the statements of Abolition Jour
nails are entitled to credit no greater traitor
than Mr.. Vallandigham can be found in
jeff. DAVE dominions.
The fact is, Mr.. Valandigham is not the
base traitor his enemies represent him
lie is true friend of the Union and all
tho time lives and talks inside the bounds
| of the constitution. If his advice had been
followed, our land would not be the scene
OF desolatiIg strife, as it is now. At the
| commencement of this terrible war be was
almost the only man IN Congress who had
the bOldness to stand up and denounce the
schemes Of the Abolitionists. Now, how
ever, he has many to sustain him. And
the journals of Abolitonism had better
cease their assaults upon him. The great
Democratic party and conservative men of
the Republican party will ere long assume
the ground advocated by Mr.. Vsl.andig-
ham, IN reference to the war.
1t is true that the Abolition Legislature
of Ohio by attaching strong Abolitio
county to Mr.. Yallandigham's district.
were able to defeat his reelection to Con-
gress, but the election proved that be had
been more than endorsed by the people of
his old district. in which his majority was
nearly q thousand votes. His defea,
therefore was the result of most perfdio US
gerrymandering.
The day is not far distant when the men
who, like Mr.. Vallaudigham had the moral
courage and patriotism to stem the Adolf
ton tide and meet the usurpers with truth
and justice, will be properly appreciated.
RAvAGEs OF THE WAR.-There is scarce
ly day but what we hear of the death of
some of the gallant men who have left this
county to fight for the Union and conssitu-
ton. During the past week the tidiDge of
the death of two brave young men who left
this city in August last with the Tooth
regiment, to wit: Henry Stalder, "a son of
Lawrence Stalder, of the town of jackson.
and John Fitzpatrick, of this city. The
former died in hospital, and the latter was
killed by the fall Ct a tree, while on duty.
Thus death continues to consume thu no,
bio spirits that have gone out from their
homes and friends to fight in this dreadful
war.

The HOSTAGE OFFICERs.-In response
to the announcement that General VIM

hostages for the two Yankee officers Finn

sioner has informed the Federal Govern.
ment that the Confederate Government
will not be intimidated by any such
threats, and that the execution OF said
officers will take place as soon as the Pres
ident may see fit. 1t is hoped that the
Executive will see fit to give the order for
execution Immediately; and as we have
now over five hundred officers in our
hands, besides some FIVE or six thousand
privates, it is in the power Of the Govern
ment to carry retaliation to very bitter
extreme. The people call for the death
OF these two Yankees, and it is useless to
delay their death any longer.-[ Rich

recent murders have struck terror to citi-
sens, both loyal and disloyal. The pros
pect there is that loyal men, the best CIT
liens, viii soon be forced to leave the
country. Such in brief is the dark picture
drawn from the facts in the case.
From undoubted authority we learn
tina, many of the rebel soldiers from
Prices defeated army are now returning
and becoming professional bushwhackers.
One has been caught as recruiting off,
Ger for the rebel army. Indeed it seems
that the remnant Of rebels are now doing
their utmost to make their utmost of ex-
listing circumstances, we do not say to
transfer Missouri to the Southern Con-
federacy, as that day is over, but at least
with the manifest design to gain all the
privileges Of loyal men, secure their for
mer political status in the State, as well
as to diminish the number of Union men
and destroy their influence in the State
as far as possible.
1t has been until recently crime in
the view of the governing powers of the
Southwest to be member or minister
of the Methodist Episcopal Church, or as
they called it the Northern Methodist
Church. The party, call it faction, or
what you please, lhatis operating in con-
nection with Gov. Gamble has renewed
this work in the arrest of Mr.. Harbaugh
and Rev. Mr. BfatteH. Is this to go on
under the party that our misled President
calls a faction II SO it is time this was
! known to the most numerous and most
loyal church in the United States, which
with their adherents number several mil
lions of loyal citizens, with scarcely dis
loyal minister or lay member among
them.
We ask President Lincoln, Are the
many thousand preachers of the M. Z.
Church to be arrested. imprisoned and
tyranized over by such upstars captains as
he of Chilicotha and put and kept in jail
for many days, because they are loyal and
supporters of your administration aud the
Union which you maintain /? Is this
so, Mr.. Lincoln? If 30 let us know it,
that we might all, millions Of loyalists that
we are, expostuIate with you for this
great error of your administration before
we take up arms to defend the Union
which by this illadvised course you would
deliver up to Jeff. Davis.
Many such questions might be asked,
but we stop just at the threshold of our
inquiries. Some false representations
have surely misled our beloved President
Lincoln. We hope he will review this af-
fair of Missour's oppression, worse in its
results than the attacks of our rebel expel-
led Governor Jackson
We would say to all of the Church
in Missouri or elsewhere, be slow to be-
lieve evil of the ruler of our people
Honest Abe is our lawful ruler. We
must support him to the last, for he will |
surely relieve Missouri from the ill.advis.
ed course of arresting and imprisoning
Methodist laymen and preachers as well
as other loyal citizens.
