A Point Wade Against the Con
scriptiOn BiIi---The militia of
the States--The UnconsiitutiOn-
RIity OF the Bill.

A Point Wade Against the Con
scriptiOn BiIi---rhe militia Of
the states--The Demonstrations
RIity OF the Bill.
The Syracuse On. Y } Union, in an ar
ticle on the ConscriptiOn Bill, says:
The bill begins with high sound
ing preamble, declaring that "ho SER
vice can be more praiseworthy and
honorable than that which is rendered
for the maintenance of the Constitu-
tion and Unien-aad vet in its whole
scope and provisions, but especially
by IT'S first, fourth, fifth, sixth, sew
enth and thirty.fourth sections it vio>
lates the sixteenth clause Of the eighth
section of the Constitution, which in
vests Congress with power ITO pro-
vide for organizing, arming and discip-
lining the militia, and for governing
such part of them as may be employ
ed in the service of the United States,
reserving to the States respectively
the appointment of the officers and
the authority of training the militia
according to the discipline prescribed
by Congress-"
The Constitution of the United
States expressly reserves "to the States
respectively the appointment of the
officers of the militia of the States
when called into the Federal service
and the sole authority of organizing
such militia. 50 But the first section Of
the bill in question seizes every able,
bodied person Of every State into the
Federal service-and the fourteenth
and some prior sections remove all
this militia ofthe States from the con-
troll of the States and of their Gov.
ernorS and put them wholly in the
hands of the Marshals of the Presi,
dent and the President himself. The
only question, therefore, is, whether
thir bill is really effective to nullify
the Constitution or whether the Con-
stitution has sufficient force and val
idity to render this bill a nullity,
lfit be a nullity then all its provis-
ions fail, and this Congress will have
made no adequate provision for re-
cruiting the army; and with the vast
ing away of the present forces, must
come an enforced end of the war. If
it be valid to attain its ends, as anoth-
er bill gives the President an unlimit-
ed contrel of the purse Of the nation,
and this gives him the control of all
the able-bodied men, the purse and
sword are both united in his hands,
and we have in his person despotism
with full power to enforce the most
despotic and discretionary DEGREES.

The Opinion of a. Prescribed
Man

The Hon. JNo. S. CARLILE, United
States Senator from Western Virginia,
who, on account of his devotion to the
Union cause, was banished from old
Virginia and price set upon his head
by the Confederate authorities; is
thus reported in the United States
Senate upon the Conscription Bill.
He said:
"Mr. Carlile continued his remarks
referring to the many bills passed by
Congress as an evidence of the pres,
ent policy toward despotism. He
asked if people should not be alarmed
when they saw in the leading paper
of the party in power such a dispatch
as he saw in the New York Tribune
about the Connecticut 'Copperheads,
saying that there was "a limit to the
forbearance of the Administration.
He warned the Administration that
there was limit to the forbearancC
of the people. lie was astonishcc
when he saw in General Burnside g
testimony beore the War Committee
what he said concerning his attack OF
Fredericksburg, That when he haC
lost as many men as his orders requir
ed, he suspended the attack Wht
was it that gave orders how many mer
should be killed in an attack"

A Great Outrage.

One Of the greatest outrages that
has been committed since this war be-
gan, was the destroying of the editor
ial rooms Of the Office Of the Colum-
bus Crisis on last Thursday night
about ten o'clock. A mob of aboa,
two hundred persons, instigated by the
Abolitionists of that city, entered the
rooms and destroyed everything they
could lay their hands on. They then
proceeded TO the press-room of the
Statesman Office, where the Crisis il
printed, and undertook to destroy that
but were met by the employees and q
police force, and driven back, Gov.
Medary, the editor, was absent at the
time from the city, being in Cincinnati
attending surgical operation being
performed on little grand child from
Kansas.
Gov. Medary's crime, in the csti'
nation Of these abolition mobites, wa'
being Democrat. His loyalty and
patriotism is unquesticned by loya
men; but thon he is a democrat. They
are fearful of his influence, and hence
this dastardly and cowardly attempt
to destroy his property.
The Ohio State Journal, the aboii
ton organ of Ohio, of tho next morn
ing, sanctioned and approved of this
outrageous act. Gen. Cooper, the
commander of the military forces a
Columbus and a regular army officer
issued an order which will be found il
another column, that breathes thu
spirit of the patriot, gentleman and
soldier.
These outragcs will only show the
law abiding people of the country the
necessity of preparing to protect theil
rights and their property.

We publish this important law in
this issue of the Sentinel, just as it
passed both houses Of Congress, and
received the Presidents signature.
It makes no distinction of color, black
or white, the latter word not being in
the law. Negroes and whites are all
liable to be drawn. No religious sect
is exempt from the operations of the
draft. Quakers and Shakers all come
in under it; so do Ministers of the
Gospel. The three-hundred- dollar ex-
emption is retained. Those who are
able to pay that can escape the draft.
The enrolment is to be made between
now and the LIST of April. The whole
machinery Of carrying out the law is
under the direction of the President.
This momentots and unconstitutional
statute viii be read with intense in
terest by every man, woman and child
throughout the whole length and
breadth Of the country. F7*

re- The Cleveland Plaindeal

gsg@ The Cleveland Plaindealer
says that the venerable statesman,
John J. Crittenden, of Kentucky, thus
closed his last speech in Congress-:
81 am for carrying on the war, pro-
vided the Abolition policy be with
drawn. | am sworn to support the
Constitution, but [ am not sworn to
support the Abolition party. / have
never sworn to that, and | will never
do honor to its policy"
1t will be seen that Mr.. Crittendcn
makes his future support of the war
CONDITIONAL upon the Abolition poll
cy being withdrawn! Of that there is
no probability!

nGE Alexander Harris. a lawer

Dg AleXender Harris, a lawer OF
Lancaster, Pa, was recently arrested
at York in that State by military
guard, charged with uttering treason
able language in this, that he had said
he "would as soon be called Seces.
sionist as an Abolitionist." j." He was
kept in the custody of the guard from
the Goth to the 23d of FEBRUARY, when
he was brought before a State judge
and discharged on a writ of habeas
corpus.
Subsequently the parties implicated
in causing the arrest of Mr.. Harris
were themselves taken in custody by
the deputy Sheriff of York county, on
a charge of false imprisonment, and
lodged in Jail. They afterward gave
bail for their appearance at court and
were discharged.

Grand Rally ef che DesAOcrac!
..f.. OF Harrison C0aniy!

...f Of Harrison Coaniy!
Last Saturday was proud day for
the Gallant Democracy of Harrison
county. Although the entire day was
the worst for public meeting that
could have been, driving saOw storm
raging throughout the entire forenoon,
yet the Democracy from all parts of
the county, to tkenumber of one thou
sand, came toCadiz. The roads, like
the abolitioh party, were in horrible
condition. and, as if in conspiracy with
the storm-king, no trains were run on
the- Cadiz Branch until late in the af-
terRoon, on account of the bursting of
fac Of the locomotive early in the
morning.
Notwithstanding all these adverse
circumstances, so interested are the
people in the great issues now before
them, that an immense concourse of
people came together, and when, after
dinner, the bell was rung, the Court
House was filled to overfowing, and
hundreds went away unable to gain
admittance. The jam inside of the
Court House was awful.
DR.. 0lds made one of the very best
speeches we have ever listened to. For
over two hours he addressed the people
in his happiest vein. As his arguments
were establishedb by the resistless force
of logic, and as his sallies of itrolled
forth, the shouts of applause were
dcafening-the cheers of the enthusi-
estic audience almost lifted the roof of
the house.
Mr.. Converse, although suffering Sc
verely from the effects of bad cold,
made very appropriate and telling
speech.
The resolutions, which were unani-
mously adopted by the meeting, are of
the right kind, and will meet the
hearty appreciation of lovers of their
country every where. They are plain,
practical and full of meaning. In them
the issues of the day are not dedged,
but they are broad enough for every
patriot in the land to stand upon. They
express the feeling of the Democracy
of this county, and commend them
selves to all.
We never attended more enthusi-
astic meeting. AS cheer after cheer
broke forth from the dense throng, no
one could mistake the feeling of the
people. They are in earnest, and the
record they will make at the coming
Sping AMI Fall Elections will make the
advocates of fanaticism tremble. We
have no hesitancy in saying that HarN
rison County will 60 Democratic next
Fall. The signs are unmistakable-
the people are moving with irresistible
force, and in spite of the insanity of
the present Administration, and the
incubus of the Republican party, the
Union of Washington and Jefferson
will be restored-and will only be re.
stored through the agency of the Dem
ocratic party. The epeople want peace
peace for Union. They are salts
fed that the two years experiment Of
war alone for Union is q failure, and
they are now for trying also the olive
branch of Peace. The meeting or
last Saturday will be attended with the
very best Of results.

THE THREE MILEAGEs.- The House
amendment to the civil appropriation
bill has been retained by the Senate,
appropriating mileage to members for
the extra session Of Congress, held in
1861, thus taking several hundred
thousand dollars out of collapsed
Treasury. This is the economy OF

lition Congress, which votes esitselfthree

"M1cn1dAN CITY, INDIANA, |
February 90.

"The richest demonstration of the
Union feeling, as opposed to the rage
of the Copperheads, was made in this
city last evening. A large Union
meeting was held here, attended by a
vast concourse of the best citizens of
the place and delegation from La
porte. Reys. Messrs. Losier, Copp and
Anderson spoke and the enthusiasm
was intense. |, was stated at the o,
pening of the meeting that there might
be an alarm of fire, and that no one
should be disturbed by it, AS IT WAS
ALL UNDERSTOOD. Sure enough, a
barn belonging to the Copperheads,
and already made notorious in the
Tribune, as a rendezvous of the K. G.
c., WAS fred, and excited Copperhead
faces appeared at the hall-door crying
that the whole town was in danger.
at was announced too that it was a
Copperhead barn, from which by the
way, all combustible property haC
been removed, and its loss would no
be felt by the city. So all stayed
quiet, except the fremen, who, by the
way, were unable, with the most su
perluman efforts, to save half a dozer
Coppernead barns from burning. The
meeting went on enthusiastically in thu
mean time.
"Mr. Roberts (Union) warehouse
and the old Washington House were
also fired, but were quickly extin
guished. After the fire the meeting
was larger and more enthusiastic thar
before. Resolutions of the stronges
kind were passed with immense enthu
siasm; and the Butternut effort tt
break up the assembly was the bes
thing that could have occurred for us
