The CoIored Regiment Of Ohio.

The ColOFed REGIMENT Of Ohio,
Seven full companies have been mus
tered into service at the camp of the Col
ored regiment at Delaware. Recruits are
arriving almost daily, and Che prospect is
good for the speedy filling up Of the regi.
ment. Tie meeting that was held at Xenia
early in August, stimulated enlistments
The Convention was large and enthu-
siastic, many influential men being in at
tendance. A procession was formed near
ly mile long, which marched to the depot
to meet J, d. LangstOn, Esq, the State
agent for the colored service. Mr.. Lang
ston delivered sn able address to the meet
ing upon "The Hour and the Duty of Col
ored Men to the Government" The ad-
dress was listened to with marked atten-
tion, and the following preamble and reso-
lutiOns, adopted at the meeting, show how
the colOred men acquiesce in the views Of
the speaker;
WHEREAS, We, the colored citizens of
Ohio, this day assembled at Xenia, in view
of what has already been done by the Presi-
dent Of the United States, and the general
Government, in behalf Of the Afrieo- Amer
lean, have unshsken and increasing con-
fdence in Abraham Lincoln, our President
in his administration, and the general Gov
ernment; therefore
RssolUed, That we stand as ever on the
side of the Government and pledge to it
sour lives, our property and our sacred
bonor," in its efforts to subdue the rebel
lion Of the slave oligarchy Of the country,
in its determination 10 emancipafe the
slaves of all rebels, to establish Freedom
in the District Of Columbia and the Nation
al Territories, to welcome Hayti and Liberia
to the great family Of nations, to recog-
nize the eitizenshipOf the native born col
ored American, and to protect the colored
soldiers, who, taking the American mus
ket and bayonet, have gone forth at the
call Of their country to do and die for the
Government and the Union.
ResolVed, That we are proud of the he.
roic conduct Of the colored soldiers who
Fought at AIillikin's Bend and Morris Is
land, 7indicsting as they did, by their
noble and manly behavior, their claim to
the admiration and respect Of their cOun
trymen.
Resolved, That it is the duty Of the Col
ored People of Ohio to fill up at once, by
volunteering, the noble colored regiment
now being formed at Camp Delaware.

TEE WAR NEWS

The chief interest of last weeks opera
lions center in Grants dem onstrations sgainst
Vicksburg. A great number of rumors and
reports are in circulation, but they are so
incoherent that few will give them credence
until officially confirmed. These reports
purport to give transactions so improbable,
If not impossible, as to throw discredit upon
them-a sample of which may be rapidly
sketched, as thus:-Grand Gulf tsken-then
Port Gibson-then big fight at Clinton
then Jackson captured-then fight on
Bayou Pierre, near the starting point-then
Raymond csptured.-then battle on the
Big Black river-then taking the out works
of Vicksburg-and lastly the capture of
Walnut Hills. &C., &c. Such operations
are hardly possible. Tho very latest rumor
is, that though no positive evidence of the
capture of Vicksburg has been received, yet
such evidence will certainly be soon pro-
duced. Our own impression is-though in
this we may be mistaken-that most of the
rumors current in the last week are ground
less; and that Grant, if he has not been re-
pulsed, is slowly struggling up the line of
the Big Black to gain some favorable posi-
ion in the rear of Vicksburg. We judge
hus from his own report of the obstacles
which Jay before him.
There is no news from other quarters
worth chronicling, except a rumor, which

TWO years work.

! There is no civilized country on earth
which is in m ore deplorabie condition to-
day than that known as the United States
OF America. Dismembsred as nation By
sectional war, and driven to the verge Of
anarchy in these Northern States by the
imbecility and tyranny of those who have
control of the machinery of government,
that which was but few short years ago
the happiest cou ntry for man to live in, has
become the least desirable in almost every
respect, of every place on earth which is
recognized as civilized.
The cause OF this unfortunate state of
things is so plainly written in the facts of
history that it is needless to recite them here.
But in considering our situation as people,
the inquiry arises to our mind, how long is
this state Of things to last and are the
American people, after a few years of
prosperous existence as a nation, ready and
willing to become the degraded equals of
extinct nationalities? 1t would seem from
their apparent indifference to Transporting
events that the American people are ready
for the yoke Of q master. 1t is true that
many of us are deceived by appearances.-
Patriotism has been invoked aud appealed
to for the ostensible purpose of preserving
the integrity of the Republic from the eff
fects of civil war, but when the patriotic ar
dor Of the people impelled them onward to
the field of battle and of slaughter, the
proclamation goes forth from their servants
IN control of the Government that the bond
by which the States are held together as
one is of no binding force upon rulers; and
that in disregard of the stipulations of that
bond, the people. who are freemeu. shall
become slaves Unconditional submission
if required of free Americans to the behests
of power. A despotism is established by
theiservants Of the people in supercedure of
the constitutional Government, and the
people are impudently told that they old
their lives and enjoy liberty and property
by the gracious permission of a few OIL
their fellow citizens who, but few years
ago, were their equals before the law, and
their interiors in every attribute of manly
dignity.
What q fall is this, my countrymen."-
Once we were freemen; both by nature and
by constitutional compact. Now neither
by nature nor by constitutional recognition
are me free. Natural rights aud political
rights alike are denied to the'American PEG.
Pile, and they, if it were legitimate to be
under the control Of a master, consent to
become the subjects of usurpers of power.
Such is the change wrought in the Ameri- |
ian people in two years o! subsection to q
partisan Administration of the Government.
What are the hopes Of the futare from this |
,lance of the past? Not much to our per-
eptioD.-Dubuque Herald.

Vallandigham,

The sentence of Mr.. Vallaudigham was
changed by order of President Lincoln from
confinement at Fort Warren to trausporta-
ton to the Southern Confederacy, and it is
reported that he has already been delivered
within the rebel lines-so say the newspa-
pers. The whole statement seems to us so
absurd and incredible, that we cannot adj
wise any one to trust it. Our impression is
that the story of Vallandigham having been
sent South was an invention to cover his
conveyance to Fort Warren, the authorities
having him in charge probably apprehending
danger of an attempt to rescue him on the
route. Why should Lincoln want Vallan-
dishanns in the South? And why should
the south permit him to stay there? The
absurdity of the case gives it an incredible

Coriolanus.

Inc President never has read history or

Vallandigham to Punishment. Plutarch. if
he had read his lives, would have taught

of Caius Marcus, surname ed Coriolanus, who.
in the field, as Vallandigham in the halls of
legislation. won imperishable honor in the
defense of the rights of his countrymen.
Bad counsels prevailed in Rome, and the
populace, ductile under the hands of dema-
sosues, demanded of the Senate that
Coriolanus should be banished. He it was

Lincoln and Jefferson.

The Washington correspondent Of the In =
dependent unblushingly ack nowledges tina
the Administration has been interfering
with the election in order to perpetuate its
own Power-that lie. basely using the pow
er the people have placed in its hand to pre-
vent the people enjoying free expression OF
their opinions at the ballot-box. Here it's
Let it be placed on record:
The administration, for the first time since
it came into power, used its legitimate in
fiuence on the rightside in the New Hamr-
shire election, and the second occasion was
in Connecticut. Before, it--had refused to
use it at all; but the contest between the
rebel sympathizers and loyal men became
so close and so dangerous that by the instinct
IT self preservation the President was forced
to give what influence he could control to
his friends. The old policy was fast carry
ing the country into the hands of the Copper
heads. There is one man in the cabinet, Mr.
Stanton, who will make no difference In his
hearing toward a pro-slavery Democrat and
rebel. So far as he can, l believe, he
means to get clear of all men in Office who
are not ready to defend the administration
in its anti-slavery policy at all times when
itscan be served thereby.
The above is the way Lincoln conducts
the government. He is now trying the
same thing in the West, srresting Demo-
Gratis, suppressing newspapers, &c. Now
listen to the words of Thomas Jefferson, in
letter written after the close Of his admin
istration. He says: -...
During this course of administration, and
in order to disturb it, the artillery of the
press has been levelled against us, charged
with whatsoever its licentous ess could de-
wise or dare
Nor was it uninteresting to the world, that
an experiment should be fairly and fully
made, whether freedom of discussion, I'M
aided by power, is not sufficient for the prop /
agation and protection of truth. Whether /
a government, conducting tself in the true
spirit of its Constitution, with zeal and pu- |
rity. and doing no act which it would he
