Indiana Legislature.

The indianapolis correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial writes as follows
to that paper
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. g.---Nothing of i'm
portance was done in either house to-
day. There was no quorum in the Senate
in The morning or afternoon. The Union
members bolted because of the refusal
Of the Democrats to indorse the war, and
seem determined TO put off the election
of Turpie and Hendricks until the DEM
ocrats pledge themselves to make the
n ecessary appropriations, and vote for
resolutions denouncing secession and in
dorsing a vigorous war policy.
The Conmeyciql Republican paper,
strongly condemns the action of the
boilers as highly reprehensible. Itsays
The Republican members of the State
Senate of Indiana, in refusing TO 60 into
an election for United States Senator I'M
less the Democrats will first pledge
themselves to vote for appropriation bills
resolutions denouncing the rebellion and
urging a vigorous prosecution of the war
have clearly acted in the wrong. 1t is
certainly revolutionary proceeding, and
though Democratic presidents can be
abundantly quoted in favor of their ac-
ton, there is nothing, not even the laud-
able ends which they desire to secure
which can justify it. We trust the sober
second thought will prevail with them,
and that they will resume their duties
aud finish the unpleasant business as
soon as possible.
We agree with the Commercial, and are
gratified to see the boilers condemned by
leading Republican papers

The Arkansas Legislature has imposed
fine of not less than $1,000 no more
than $4,000, and imprisonment in the
penitentiary for five or ten years, upon
any person caught trading with the YAM
kees.-E'rchange.
That is all very well for buncombe
purposes, but there is not a member OF
that Legislature who would NOT walk fif-
ty miles through the mud, to dhicker
with Yankee for second-h hand hat, or
pair of boots, or bag of salt Why, a
rebel fancies himself unusually fortunate
if he finds an opportunity Of robbing a
dead Yankee of his sack, or cutting the
buttons Off his coat.

Fruits of Secession.

the following is an abstract of LETT
Ter from foreign gentleman, dated Char
lesion, S. c., December IL, 1862:
"We arrived at Charleston four days
after leaving New York, and, although
had nos made myself any illusions, yet
did not expect to find this city such as it
is; in truth, at first, and particularly in
certain quarters, it seems like vast cem-
etery, aud there are scarcely two or three
streets sufficiently animated to dispel this
impression.
Ever since the beginning of the block
ade every day some families moved away

emigration has become almost general

movement, men, women, old men and
children have gone, and ! believe to-day
there are not twenty ladies left in the

nothing so sad as these fine houses with.

The Wrangling Of Politicians.
The party squabbIes which appears to
be distractiDg The Legislature of Indiana,
al present, may be regarded as small
matter by those who are living at safe
distance from the scene Of civil war, and
who hear only through the medium of
newspapers, Of the destroying Of railroad
tracks and bridges, the burning Of cars,
the pluDderiDg and pillagiDg of farms,
che assassination Of citizens, and the
slaughter OF hundreds and thousands
upon the fleld Of battle. Our fortunate
counfrymeD Of the loyal States know Of
Che existence Of these things only by
hearsay; they hear the battle "afar off,
its thunders, It's shoutings, its death
groans and wailings, and lei them thank
Con for IT, Let their hearts overflow
with gratitude TO the kind Providence
which has hitherto shielded them, and
aheir families, and their homes, from the
ravages of marauding bands, and of hos
tile armies. We fear that they do not
appreciate the richness of the blessings
of peace. May Heaven preserve them
from the sad and bitter experience of the
b. desolation of war, which ourselves and
Others have had and now have The
tidings which come TO us of partisan
strife and bitterness between loyal men,
are painful beyond expression, and we
are sure that they fill the hearts of the
loyal men in this State with profound
and unalloyed regret. No interest can
we take in such contest other than to
deprecate and lament its existence.
Men whose farms have been laid waste,
whose families have been driven from
their homes, and whose sky is shrouded
with the funeral pail of actual war, have
neither time nor inclination to enter into
mere partisan controversies, and political
discussions. What is the discussion OF
old platforms, on the angry ballotings OF
Caucuses, to us who are engulphed in the
whirlpool of revolution? What 70 us are
the names of Wing, Democrat, Ameri-
gan, and Republican ? We see but one
platform emerging from the. wild and
tempestuous pillows of civil war, and
that is our countryside Federal Union.
If this is TO be saved from the assaults of
traitors all will be safe; if our country
perish, all will be lost-law, and free
dom, and the happiness and prosperity
which they have hitherto conferred. Let
as all strive how we may best serve ou
country, in her present trials. When
2his controversy shall be settled, as we
crust and believe it will be, posterity will
bestow honor, not upon the aspirants who
made able partisan speeches, constructed
ingenious platforms, and won partisan
races, but upon the patriots who, forsak-
ing and forgetting all former differences
Joined hands, in the noble work Of saving
Eheir common country. Men of the North
in the name of the exiles, who now wander
40 fugitives from homes, which they hayt
been compelled 10 forsake, because they
loved their country more than fortune
and kindred, we invoke you to distrac
no more the councils of your States anC
OF the nation, by party discussions. b
warned in time, before the evils whicI
we now suffer, visit you atyOur own fire
sides, and in the persons of your nov
peaceful families.

The trade of England with us has not

this country to England were also more
than five millions of dollars worth great
err than in 1861. We have also sent her
about forty millions in gold. Her COM
merce has been very prosperous. And
though her operatives are now suffering
on account Of the short supply of cotton,
there is no doubt that the reduction ia

SUGAR and whisky in Riohmond.

Sugar has advanced enormously in the
Richmond market. The Eboniner Of the
I'd says that brown sugar was selling at
95 cents pound by the barrel, and mo-
lasses at Sc 10a6 % gallon. "The
same commodities were retailing--sugar
at $1a1 10 per pound, and mOlasses at
81 50a8 90 and upward per gallon"
Illustrating advance is attributed to the
"active aggressive operations of the enc
my in the South and South west, which
may ultimately result in the destruction
of communication with Richmond for a
time" Whisky has also advanced. 1.-THE
vilest whisky" says the same paper
(which, before the war, gentleman
would not give to his negroes, is now
eagerly sought after and bought at from
$50 TO $50 gallon. French brandy is
worth from $40 to $50" All of which
goes TO show The value of secession, and
what the niger aristocracy secure in an
armed search after their rights. If there
is any thing that will ever bring Cover
nor fletcher to compromising condition
of mind, or a disposition to listen to
overtures of peace from Vallandigham
& CO., it will be further advance in the
price of whisky.
