Row in Indiana.

The war in the North would seem TO be
fast eliminating. Scarcely paper from
the North arrives here that there are not
accounts of bloody riots in the North
western States arising from the overbear
ing and dictatorial conduct of the Aboli-
tionists towards the Democrats. The fol-
.lSming account of ROW in Indiana we
clip from late number of the Chicago
Times Miss. Crisis.
Al Calumet. town OF some 500 nhabi-
tants, situated on the Michigan Southern
Railroad near the crossing OF the Michi
gan Central Railroad the Reverend Cap
lain William Copp was announced TO
speak on Monday the ID inst. The eve
ming came, and with it the speaker. The
audience gathered. The speaker took
the stand, opened the Bible before him,
unbuttoned his coat, took from his side
pocket navy revolver, which he dellb-
erately placed by the side OF the Sacred
Book, and announced that his subject
would De "The Bible and the Bullets" "
The audience was large one Tor that
place. and composed Of Democrats and
Republicans. expecting when they came
together, to hear the truth, from divine
who had been in the service. They eX-
pected that he, at least, deal justly with
all men" nothing extenuate, or aught
SET down in malice" but what was their
stonishnent when, after an Introductory,
to hear him propose to take vote ol the
meeting to see how many OF those pres
ent would assist in hanging the copper
heads of that county. At this juncture
the Democrats present Withdrew to the
street, where the Abolitionists followed
them, assaulting them with pistols, knives,
bludgeons, and. III short, will everything
avaiable-instantly killing Robert Lake,
and seriously wounding - MulhiIl and
Thomas Mooney. In that immediate vi
cinity the most intense excitement pre-
walls, and more bloodshed is anticipated
before the affair is ended.

relief in their destitute condition. The
ar icles alluded 20 are quite lengthy as 10
the evils TO which the workmen are sub

pations, and we make only a short extract
to show the deep distress. dehasement,
and degradation to which they have been
reduced by the want OF the great staple
cotton-which hitherto has not ONLY fur
nished them employment and slbsis-
tenoe, but has been in its various 7 mif
cations the sourceof commerce to large
but now suffering population.
II is easy to see that if the conflict be-
tween the North and the South contn-
ues much longer, and France is still de-
prived ofthe staples and markets of this
country, she must either find some new
undiscovered path TO relief, or else sub
NIT to the fate which revolution will en-
tail. The following is the extract;
As to the actual condition of the work
men, what shall be said of it which is not
already known?. The weaveIs Of some
parts OF Normandy eat the leaves Of the
COLA or rape seed. At Rouen single
parish, st. Viven, contains l.l70 families
in a state of destitution. and these LILO
families have their most indispensable eff
fects, to the amount of one hundred
thousand francs in pledge with the pawn
brokers. Mothers nscribe their daugh-
ters' names upon the public registers Tor
prostitution, and when the Registras endea-

The peasants, in the middle ages, gave
their children to wolves, and we have
now advanced one degree further in
misery and shame.
We are only yet in the beginning of
this doleful condition. and must await
the development Of this immense pro-

EXtortlon.

The sin of extortion is by no means
confined to Mobile. A lady in an interi-
or town, writing to her husband in this
city, says:
81 am getting to be afraid the mean,
soulless extortioners left at home will
whip US yet. The last time ! got bushel
of meal, paid one dollar and II half for
it, but when the water was so high that
the steam mill could not run, -
made the people pay three dollars for
meal and would not grind their corn
He runs his gin, and | suppose his mill,
by steam. Parson -, am told, sells
bacon for 81 ,25 a poundI saw them going
to Church on Sunday, and wondered If
the Devil had deluded them into the be-
lief that they were Christians. The steam
mill is now grinding and selling meal at

Habeas Corpus Case.

The Jackson Mississippian publishes
the opinion Of Judge Wm. L. Harris, de-
livered in the High Court Of Errors and
Appeals of Mississippi, IN :he case Of
Aaron Dreyfus. The question presented
for decision was whether the petitioner,
a native OF France, domiciled in one of
the Confederate States, since the year
1858, and having then made his declara-
ton of intention to become a citizen Of
the United States, is subject to the juris-
diction of court-martial as a spy, or
whether he is amenable TO the civil au-
thorities as citizen, for treason. The
Judges conclusion is, that Dreyfus is un
der the obligation of temporary allie
glance to the Confederate States, which
renders him amenable to the civil author
tiles for treason-and which by the very
terms of the second section of the arli-
cles of war before cited, exclude the mil
itary tribunals from taking cognizance of
the ofiense.

The Negroes to be Forced to Fight.

Tie Washington Chronicle lays down
the law for the negroes thus: Fighting
promiscuous is forbid, and they must 90
in the forefront of the battle. The Yam
KEGS evidently intend to destroy the en-
tire breed in America:
Gen. Hunter believes the employment
of blacks as soldiers to be necessary to
the preservation of our country. The re-
suit OF the war must be to secure to them
the inestimable blessing which, but for
the rebellion, could never have been at
tained by the present or, perhaps the
next generation. This being the case, it
il no more than fair that the negroes
should aid us in crushing that rebellion
which is as hostile to their interests as ii
is to ours; and if there are among them
any who are too selfish or too cowardly to
make sacrifices and incur risks for the
sake of the great privilege OF their man
hood, they should be compelled to do
their duty.

MOBILE, March 25. The Vicksburg cor
respondent of the Advertiser & Register,
under date of the 23d, says, on Saturday
morning, Col. Ferguson, commanding
the batteries at the junction of Deer
Creek with the Sunflower, so miles above
its junction with the Yazoo, repulsed the
enemy, destroying it is said, 8 of the en-
emy's gunboats, and driving back the
balance. Col. Furguson had sufficient
strength to hold the enemy in check, and
recommended that reinforcements be
sent to the enemy's rear to cut off their
retreat,
This move on the part Of the enemy
was to flank our batteries at Haynes
Bluff on the Yazoo.

War Two Years Longer.

In a late speech in New York, Mr..
Voorhees,, of Indiana, uttered the follow
ing sentiments:
Wise laws, just enactments, concilia-
ton. compromise in the midst of peace,
not in the midst of war, may once more
restore the shattered and bleeding re-
mains of this republic. War will no more
do it than | would have the power of
standing before corpse here and place my
hand upon its face till it should rise to
life again Our hope is in peace. Great
applause We have tried war and what
have You done? Continue to try it, as l
have no doubt you will uasil the end e
this administration. and | am ready to
abide the issue; aud if it should come to
pass that those who believe that this
Union, founded upon brotherly affection,
can be restored by killing each other, are
proved to be right and ! wrong, will re-
tire 10 my profession, or get piece oI
ground and spend the remainder of my
days in obscurity, acknowledging my er-
TOR.
