the opportunity, as is usual, to have a little

Department of the Ohio.
INDIANAPOLIS, April %, lS63.N

HAof APHh ~ w.
In assuming cOEzmand of the District Of Indi
ana, the General commanding deems it advisa
bic and proper to issue the following order. to the
end that all may be advised Of the principles
which will gOvero his action:
/. He has no proclamstions 20 issue nor policy
to adopt. That has already been done. and in
his Judgment weh done. by the Commanding
General OF this Department. He has no partisan
feelings on interests he intends TO advance. but
desires to confer. freely and fully, with the
prominent men of all political parties, and in
vokes their hearty cooperation ia all measures
calculated to- restore harmony and good feeling
in the State. He neither claims any right to in
terfers with civil matters in the State, nor has
any desire to do SO.
ii. The Commanding General is charged with
the duty of carving into effect the provisions of
General Order No. 80, recently issued by Major
General Burnside. He purposes doing so. I'm
mistakable evidence has reached him that the
provisions Of this Order have been. and are being.
violated 10 various parts of the State. This is
unfortunately done, in many instances, by well
meaning men, who are led astray by newspapers
and public speakers These latter will therefore
be held to the most rigid accountability. There
Is no use in irving to dry the stream while its
fountains are allowed 10 fow. All newspapers
and public speakers that counsel or encourage re-
sistance to the Conscription Act, or any other
Ian Of CONGRESS passed as a bar measure. or that
eudsavor to bring the Uar policy of the Govern
ment into disrepute, will be considered as having
violated the Order above ali1ded to. and treated
accordingly. The country viii have to be saved
or lest during tie time that this Administration
remains in power. and therefore he who is fac
tiousIy and actively opposed 10 the Uar policy of
tie Administrators, is as much opposed TO big
Government.
III. The Commanding General INDUCES the
hope that all citizens Of the State will see the
p~ropriety and necessity Of the observance Of this
Order, and as they regard the true interest and
welfare of the State aud Nation, give him no &C.
casion 20 take action on account Of its violation.

John B. Coughs in Washington.


In walking through one of our hOspi-
tails yesterday, and standing up to speak
10 these men, / was completely unman-
ned. My voice quivered, my eyes were
filed with tears, and my heart throbbed
almost TO bursting. For some time was
unable TO speak.
Oh, they are heroes Applause. The
worlds heroes Renewed applause 1
tell you, when look at man who gives
his life Tor his country, look at true
patriot. Applause, honor such a
man, Applause, aye, with the profoun-
dest honor. ReRewed applause. The
United States uniform, however ragged
and il IL is ragged it is the more in
huential--is al once a passport to my
heart. Loud applause.
| tell you, my friends, thank God
live to-day, though it is day Of dark
ness, a day of blood, n day Of terror a
day OF war; aud when | pass through
the country, and at every station see the
long boxes lifted out, station after station,
and weeping friends, ready to take away
the body covered with the flag of onr
country TO bury il in the home sepulchre,
my heart is sad; but over tho grave Of
these heroes we will erect a monument Ia
tell men how they died, where they died
and for what they died, and there Is 4
generation that will come 70 stand with
heads uncovered by the graves Of the
dead soldier Of the campaign in this day
