7 he copperhead Louisville Journal
assumes to instruct the loyal men Of
Tennessee. The Journals as ignorant
of the preferences of loyal Tennesseans
as it was of the preferences of the loyal
Kentuckians Of the Sixth Congressional
District. The public recollect that it
denounced Gen. Green Clay Smith last
summer as being the candidate of a rad
ical abolition convention, and ordered
the people to vote for Menres, whom it
pronounced to be "a shining light of
conservatism" When the election came
off Gen. Smith beat Menzies 5000 ma
jority. Beyond doubt the editor of the
Journal is one Of the most ignorant, as
well as the most yAin-g lorious and ego
tistical asses in the whole country. Why,
the laundering fool actually had his own
pet candidate for Mayor, for whom it
worked necessarily, beaten few months
ago, about one thousand majority.

Malignity of Indiana copperheads.

HAailShltJ VI 4uQldud SOPOSGASoGo.
The Copperheads in the Indiana Legis-
lature have been thwsrted in carrying
out their revolutionary and rebel schemes
by the withdrawal of the Union members
O. the lower branch of the General As
sembly, thus leaving that body without a
quorum. The Democrats are stopped by
their own example ut former sessions,
from much Buncombizing on account of
the skedaddle.
The Copperhead Senate goes on legis-
lating as usual. but the House can only
meet and adjourn for lack of a quorum.
The Copperheads declare that in no event
will they abandon the unconstitutional
and revolutionary measures they have
introduced, but if the minority should
return to their seats. those measures
shall be the first and only ones passed.
if there were no time left to pass others.
Among the measures aVowed to be the
aim of the Copperhead Democracy, to
which they will sacrifice all other legisla-
ton. are the ordinance of Secession in
trodced by Mr.. Brown, providing for the
separation of Indiana from the Union
and its alliance with the rebels the
resolutions of Mr.. Wolfe, demanding an
armistice the bill taking from the Gov
enor his military authority, az q neces-
sary step to the enforcement of the
secession of Indiana and the bill taking
the government of the city of indianapolis
out Of the hands of its own citizens, and
putting it in such hands as will enable
the Copperheads to use its police to put
down any resistance of loyal citizens to
their secession schemes.
No marvel the wheels of such legisla-
ture are r~esolutely DISQUALIFICATION

minded me of days gone by, war News

nication of your correspondents from diff
ferant Regiments. who were formerly
schoolmates of mine. 1 thought it likely
you might like to hear from this depart
ment.
1t is now twenty months since l first
shouldered a knspsack, and many a weary
day has past. Many days on a barren Is
land, with sand for a bed, and sand for u
pillow, in Swamps almost impossible for
the human foot. But as hard as it may
seem, the troops suffered without a muir
mur. They had confidence in their lea
der, and well they might have. One
word from the famous Major General
Butler would create courage in any SOL
die'rs breast, and it was a sorrowful day to
many when he was called to say farewell
to the department of the Gulf. However,
I think We have a gentleman and asoldier
in Major General Banks" and an officer
capable of commanding the department
of the Gulf.
l can see that Ohio is one Of the leading
States of the Union, for that State itself
has furnished an army as large as Napo-

if we had a Napoleon at the head of our
army, We could whip the rebellion out

Il belong 10 Ohio" although l do not
represent sn Ohio regiment. but l have
the Buckeye feelings, and fight for the
same liberty, and same rights, and / am
willing to lay my life on the field to save
the country from the perils and danger
which are now in its midst. l expect we
will have an engagement soon at Port
Hudson, and am confident of success.
Mortar Boats have past here on their way
to make preparation for an attack. There
are $4,000 troops at Baton Rouge, and
transports are daily arriving there. The
LIST Regiment of Louisiana Volunteers
are holding vey important point, which
was the outpost of the Federal army. We
have constructed a Fort, called Butler"
and have monnted six Battery guns
which were taken from the water battery
at Fort jackson, and expect more soon.
The Flag" that represents u Liberty

Union Meeting at Bristol.

Edo. Chronicle = The following pre-
and resolutions were adopted by
the Union men Of Bristol, at i meeting
which was held March 18th, 1863. They
speak for themselves.
WHEREAs. the alarming condition Of
our country admonishes US that. unless
We adopt some immediate measures To-
save it from the control of southern
traitors, We shall, in the language Of
General Rosecrans, but deserve to be
slaves ourselves" therefore,
Resoioef, That while our fathers, broth
ers and sons are in the field, suffering all
the privations and perils incident to war
and in thousand of instances, sacrificing
their lives to defend our country against
southern traitors, we feel it to be our sol

traitors,
ResOlGsd, That in the numerous resolu-
tons and speeches recently made 10y the
so-called democrats who oppose the war,
and are threatening TO alter the Constitu-
ton and coerce the government, We but
see the fruits of the last falls elections.
RssoLssd, That the Constitution, az It
is, provides the most perfect system
of government known TO man that it
needs no amendment, and shall have
none at the beck and call of traitors. or
their insolent mouth pieces at the north.
ResoLued, That it is our duty to employ
all moral and all necessary physical
means within our reach 10 stop the influ-
ence of northeir traitors and their at
tempt TO alter the Constitution. and
break up the government.
Resolgsd, That we consider il our inn
perative duty to attend all municipal and
other meetings where We have a right
By law to vote, and there cast our sufira-

the Union and the Constitution, and that
we will vote for no others.
ResoZved, That it is the duty of every

bells consider Vicksburg their most valu-

Mr.. Howe, our industrious and very wor-
thy representative, proposed an amend
ment to the bin requiring that when a
new regiment may hereafter be raised,
that before it leaves the State the soldiers
allotments snail all be made, so that their
families can draw their proportion readi-
ly and certainly. This is a good idea,
and it is to be hoped will prevail. Mr..
Howe stands high among his colleagues
US an industrious and competent working
member, which is no mean tribute, nor
IA not fairly earned.
We dropped in a few minutes this
morning at the Auditors office, and found
Mr.. Tayler at his post as usual. Every
thing goes on like clock-work in his de-
partment, which is probably the most
important of any one OF the component
parts of the machinery of State. By the
way, the friends of Mr.. Tayler, as the
successor Of Governor Tod, are not con-
fined to the Reserve, as some have pre-
tended to suppose, inasmuch as l observe
that the organs of the Union men of
Coshocton and Pickaway counties, and
other interior sections, commend him to
the people as the man to lead the party
to victory, and properly manage the con-
Germs of the State. One thing sure, he
never will be guilty of the consumnate
folly and objectionable ingratitude of
stranding the party that shall carry him
into position.
Columbus is provsrbially q dull town.
Soldiers, legislators, lobbyists and show
men seem to have overrun it just now
In a business aspect it looks duller than
Warren does four days out of six. The
population here is composed in a Large
proportion of the overlooking immigra-
ton that swept in from the border coun-
ties of Virginia, Maryland and Pennsyl-
Vania. They take things moderately,
and lack the Yankee spirit and energy
that make things jump and snap from
the go, as is the ruling passion in North
eastern Ohio. The Buckeye State, phys
ically or physiologically speaking, is
right end up" the brains lying where
they properly should, in the upper part.
Inferentially, this section would lay in
the abdominal region, which may in
some degree ocount for the stupidity Of
some of the legislation that has astonish-
ed the natives. But l shall not venture
further in the investigation of a subject

The Gold Mania.
P. w. GARDNER, Sec'y.

Nothing, save the news of a great yicto-
ry of our arms, could create such pro-
found satisfaction among loyal men, as
will the fact that the greal gold bubble,
which has so long been a terror to the
weak in faith, has at length burst, and
done no other damage than to ease the
pockets of some of those Shylocks who
are ever ready TO advance their own in
~terests, however much individuals or the
Government may suffer.
To hat class of Democrats, as they style
themselves, who can see no good in any
act of the administration, and, so far as
indicated by their actions, would prefer
to see the Union annihilated, than saved
by any hands but their own-the depre-
citation of gold will be a terrible blow.
The currency has so long been a hobby
with which to gull hat portion of their
party, mot very small who trust to 9TH
ers to do their thinking for them, that it
will put them TO some inconvenience to
find a substitute. The time wheR the
fabulous prices for goods, which prevail
at the South, and which they have been
prophecying, would prevail here. is in
definitely postponed.
There never has been any reason wig
gold should command Il premium of more
than about 30 per cent, and its inflated
value has been attributable to a compar-
alive small number of spectators Of the
Wall Street school.
The New York Post says:
The legislation of Congress, making
these speculations if still carried on, con-
tribute to the receipts of the Treasury,
and reducing transactions in gold 10 the
level of ordinary business operations, liza
BILE to taxation under the regulations of
the Internal Revenue act, removes a fruit
full source of financial and commercial
embarrassment. Its immediate results
will probably affect the current specula-
ton unfavorably, while the restoration of
true values will tend, in time, TO restore
the balance which has been overthrow
by a long course of extravagant and need
less initiation
The Tribune of the 9Th says:
The Gold-Gamblers had a fit of the
blind staggers yesterday. The recent leg
islation Of Congress affecting their craft,
though it does not take effect for some
days yet. has given them "a fearful look
ing for a judgment" which we trust they
are about to realize. If Secretary Chase
shall use with discreet energy the power
wherewith he has been clothed by Con-
gress, he will within a month send every
Secesh scamp of them limping out of
Wall street. There was never any reason
for the enormous premium on gold, and
the price has been forced up by gambling
spectators whose hearts are with JEFF.
Davis and whose bodies ought to be re-
mitted to his dominions forthwith. If
the Union armies can but win one or two
good victories soon, we shall have gold
down TO twenty per cent. directly after.
We pray the Secretary of the Treasury
to spare no effort to secure this most ben
efcent cosummatiOn.
