Here You Have il Again.


1t will be well 10 keep the record which
the northern copperhead democracy ar,
daily making. Let the fruits of preaching
treason, be put on exhibition, for by tbeil
fruits ye shall know them, and when an,
one denies the dsunion and law -deiying ten.
denotes of modern democracy, show him the
facts. Here is late news item from Indi.
ana: 80
AT democratic meeting in Montgom,
cry county, lndinia, on Saturday, resolu
ton was passed declaring that no enroll
ment OF the militia in that county should
take place. A Committee was appointed
who waited on the Commissioner and read
The resolution. and notified him that an at.
tempt TO enroll would be at his peril"
And yet how often do we hear these
same copperhead democrats proclaiming
their loyalty @ to the constitution and the
laws. 1t will be seen also that the rebels
themselves understand the position of their
friends at the north, the difference between
them being merely nominal. The Chata-
nooga Rebel, printed in Tennessee, after
having had gratifying interview with Val
landigham, thus exclaims:
!" God speed you, Vallandigbam. on vour
mission of Peace and may your ewes be
opened, should your power be equal to your
vision, TO this grand fact, that zoe can nerey
hare Peace soit5om Dssunion.'
But this is only one Of hundreds of utter.
ances of similar character from yarious
parts of the South. They pronounce the
effort to galvanize life into the old demo-
cratic party, merely cry of the outs u
against the 6 ins," " grab for the spoils.v
says the Richmond Enquirer, which de.
clares that the democrats regard the whole
two years war, and the two years war
which has yet TO be gone through, as onIv
a presidential campaign, only somewhat
more vivaeious than ordinary" This same
paper also says:
"These democrats are truly opr alE., ,
who laid IN promulgating disafection among
1 ankees against their own government. and
IN demorallzing and disintegrating society
In that God-abandoned country"
This is tolerably plain, and shows what
every loyal man has always said, tina, the
course of these democrats is disloyal and in
aid OF the rebellion. Let every true and
real democrat look to it that his democracv
is not OF this species, and that his record i

are not erpedient also. The W. Y. Tribune
tries to make out a case against the eapedi-
ency OF these arrests, but IL we mistake not,
that paper has heretofore held that it was
always expedient, always good policy, to
do right, and this is a case where common
sense would indicate that it should be will

The Presidents Letter.

A democratic meeting was held in the
city of Albany, N. Y, on the 9th of Nav.
over which Hon. Erastus Corning, M. c.,
presided. 1t is declared to be one of the
most respectable in point of combined
talent ever convened in that city. This
meeting, thus composed, saw fit to adopt
certain resolutions, condemHing the Presi-
dent for acts alleged to be unconstitutional.
and at the same time set forth their purpose
10 uphold him III use of all constitutional
methods for the suppression of the present
rebellion. Among the unconstitutional acts,
as they allese, are the military arrests made
outside of districts where the rebellion ac-
'uaiiy exists, the suspension of the writ of
hooeds corpus, &c. By vote of the meet
ing, copy of these resolutions were sent to
President Lincoln, which has called forth
from him somewhat extended reply, de-
tending the arrests made as constitutionally
right in clear and forcible manner, max
ing on the whole one of the most able doc
uments the war has called forth from his
pen. As against the democrats, he cites
the well-known case of Gen. jackson. who
IN New Orleans, not only arrested the Judge
OF court, but crushed the court itself. We
much regret that the length of this admira-
bic letter forbids its publication by us.
But notwithstanding the forcible manner
IN which the President defends the rioht TO
make these arrests, he seems to have some
doubts as to their erpediency, as likely TO
result in dividing and distract'ng those who
should be united in suppressing the rebel
hon. We have no such fears we do not
share the alarm felt in some quarters. that
II VIII divide and distract those who are
united to put down the rebellion" Those
whom it divides, if there are such. are those
who are united Tor other purposes than "put-
ting down the rebellion" They affiliate for
political or party purposes, making the sup
port OF the war the basis of union for party
purposes; but all those who, having here.
tofore been divided, are now united. not for
the sake of office, but for the cause. these
arrests do not divide, nor will any other
his Administration is likely to make. IF.
rs is conceded, these arrests are right, in
legal sense, then we do not see why they

Of free speech anywhere, but always an
everyw here the most violent prosecutors o
free speech and anti-slavery men for quar-
ter of century, and yet we now see mel
y uniting with their old prosecutors in the de
= fence of pro-slavery treason, the fruits o
which have been gathered in Ohio and In,
diana, in the resistance to the government,
even since this question came up.
Many good men seem to think, there
should be no limit to freedom OF speech, and
their miaake, it seems to US, is, in notmak-
ing the proper distinction. Suppose the
houses of ill-fame and immortality in the
cities should send out their agents to talk
to the people in defence of their soul-des-
troying and heaven-defying business. would
the Freeman and Tribune defend then, on
the ground of free speech p There has
always been the most liberty of speech and
OF the press in this country. but our statutes
have always contained enactments against
obscene publications. Nor is it lawful 10
libel or SANDER good name. to which our
courts everywhere can abundantly testify.
There is, therefore, limit to free speech,
and when speech becomes dangerous to the
nation, it should be suppressed. just as much
as you would suppress anything else the
tendency of which is to destroy the Gov
eminent. Protection to the Union and to
the individual are one and the same, and in
making arrests in times of war, all civil
authority must yield to the military. III
But the worst feature of this new phase
OF +" free speech " is the great satisfaction
which jeff. Davis and his fellow-traitors
at Richmond must hail this new manifesto
ton at the North. They pronounce the
northern Vallandigham democrats their
: friends and allies" and as far as possible
to be encouraged in their !" free speech to
divide and weaken the north. The Tribune,
fSoss, &c, will not of course directly preach
because in heart thew are
honestly opposed to it, but they will hold IN

make the following extracts from vallan-

First, we cannot support Mr.. Vallsn-

"It is in vain to tell me that States can

In three months their agents and commits
sioners win return from Europe with the
recognition OF Great Britain and France,
and Of the other powers of the continent.

way to do it, have both been established" 1"

this Union should secede, for reasons Of

may judge, much as ] should deplore it,
never would, as Representative in the
Congress Of the United States, vote one
dollar of money whereby one drop Of
American blood should be shed in civil
war" - Record. p. 81.
Again:
