We are informed by a citizen of this

Ficklin, Esq, in the town of Charleston,
ILL.,, on Monday, he listened to CONVEX
sation which then and there took place,
between the following named individuals,
to-wit Daniel W. Voorhees,, James C.
Robinson, John R. Oden, Thornton, and
a few others of similar sentiments, Mr..
Voorhees, stated that he had ten thou
sand men organized in his District, all
of whom would rally to his call in
twelve hours notice
Jim. Robinson, in very bad English,
said he and his friends were banded to-
gether in his District. and had sworn one
10 the other to kill the first officer who
attempted to make any more arrests of
deserters there. rI-
Thornton of Shelbyville, said he had
enough money ready to pay the exemp-
tion fee of every drafted man in his Dis
trict, &c. If such is the case, it will be
the first time since the war commenced,
that the butternuts there have contribu-
ted anything towards supporting the
Government
Here are three or four men who an
nounce their purpose to evade the law
or resist it by calling out their forces if
need be. They assume to be the leaders
of the butternut Democracy and claim
to be good Union men. How absurd
and ill-founded are their pretensions
Very well, Daniel, just call out your
ten thousand men, and proceed to try
your valor and theirs in a conflict with
the Federal Government. Don't delay
the matter, but commence at once. The
government is ready now for the attack.
We suppose, of course, that you will
command the forces in person 1t would
be cowardly not to do so, and no man
would dare accuse you of having that
virtue. You should give commands to

prived of command. He was in the

you. BY all means secure his services.
Could we not persuade you to make Col
Cookery chief of staff? Mount him on
blackboard, and inform him that the
enemy has no inkstands to shoot at him,
and he will obey your orders in the most
gallant style. The ten thousand would

MILITARY ITEMS.

The Indianapolis Journal of Friday
says:
In IAN expedition from Helena to Cla-
rendon, which started May 8th, a detach-
ment of the lst Indiana Cavalry under
Major Pace took part. They went to
Clarendon, on White river, and then Is
miles further north, burning the grain
and laying waste the country as they
passed along. Their object was to as
certain whether Price was on the east
side of White river, and to destroy sub
sistence. The lst cavalry was detached
from the other portion of the force, and
came, at Taylor's Town, upon portion
of Marmadukes forces, on their retreat
from Missouri, who had three pieces of
artillery. The rebels formed in line of
battle on the crest of hill near the
woods, and were driven back, by a bold
charge into, the woods and over the hill.
They formed again beyond the hill, and
after an hours contest between their
battery and two small guns belonging to
our men, their pieces were silenced, and
they fell back from the contest. Andrew
Green, of Noble county, was killed.
The Journal also says:

New YORK, June 1.-The Heralds
Washington dispatch says the Govern
ment has no intelligence later than the
26th, when Grant was progressing favor
ably
The silence of the Richmond papers |
is considered an augury that nothing has |
occurred at Vicksburg encouraging to
the rebels.
The correspondence of the Herald,
dated "Near Vicksburg, %" says this is
the 4th day Grants army has laid around
the intrenchments of Vicksburg. Du-
ring that time, there have been battles
and continued cannonades. At least
1000 of our men have been placed hors
du combat in the several charges order
ed against the rebel earthworks.
During last night the gunboats and
mortars, in front, kept up a continual
fire, and several buildings were burned
by the exploding shells.
At o'clock this morning, cannona-
ding commenced along our entire lines
from every hill top in front of the enc
mys works Rebel guns were dismount-
ed, embrasures torn up, parapets and
caissons destroyed. The rebels are pow
erless to reply, as our skirmishers are
close to the works and unerringly pick off
the gunners. This cannonade continued
two hours, when Smiths, Cars, and
Osterhaus's divisions charged through
murderous fire close up to the rebel
works, when an impossible ditch, with
sharp stakes, was encountered. Our
men planted their flag directly in front
of the fort, and then crouched down be-
hind the embankment, out of range of
the rebel fire. The rebels inside could
not appear above the parapet without
meeting death from our sharp-shooters,
and could only effect anything by cut
ting off fuses to the shells, lighting them
and rolling them out.
Our boys with picks and shovels dug
breach into one fort, and this was thus
taken.
One fort was gallantly taken by storm
by Carr's division.
During three days we lost five officers
killed-including three Colonels-and
fifty wounded.

1000 men.

Convention, held at Indianapolis last

be snatched from the hands that seem
intent upon consummating the deadly
work l see no hope for the country
