Revolution took place. Germany few to arms.
Prussia and Austria commended for supremacy.
Hungary asserted her Independence. Sicily

The closing of the Chamber of deputies at

no greater favor than to be ordered to Illinois
to aid III enforcing the conscription law. I
venture to say, that for that privilege the

The condition Of the ncishboring State
OF Indiana certainly demands the earnest
attention Of the Federal Government. We
understand that the authorities at Wash
angton are incredulous; and that when
representations from the highest sources in
the State are sent forward, saying that
Indiana is on the point Of open and armed
resistance to the lnws Of Congress, the re-
ports are received with damaging expires
Eions Of disbelief, and those who bear them
are sent back without thanks for their so
called super-serviceab1c zeal. Wctell the
President and Cabinet that if what ;s
attributed to them is true, they err as men
never erred before. Indiana is to-day, in
spite Of the intense devotion Of a
share Of her people to the Union
cause, more dangerous than Mis-
souri- The existence Of secret societies,
the ayowed object Of which is resistance
to TIE execution Of the conscription law
and the tax Law, is fact that the Copper
heads themselves do not deny; and that
these meetings are attended by men fully
armed, plotting treason with muskets in
their hands, is as notorious as that tie
State Of Indiana is east Of Illinois.
The disloyal population arc rapidly arm
ing with such weapons as they can obtain;
and not political meeting Of the so-called
Democracy is held, in which treason is not
aTowcd and boosted Of, as If it were no
shame. Cheers for jeff Davis are as com.
mon as cheers for Abe Lincoln. Go owherc
one may, the evidence Of condition Of
things which waits but the spark to light
up tic whole State with the flames of civil
war, is SO pa1pable that it cannot be
mistaken nor mi.intcrpretcd..
A little rigor, little energy, q little au-
tlacity, will correct all this The plottcrs
are towards as well as scoundrels; and
they need but tue wholesome discipline
that offences like theirs require, to signify
their submission in terms as abject and hui
initiating as their brayado is loud and in
sulting. Weleave to lawyers the task of
naming the crimes that We hare pointed
out; and to common sense the task of in
ficting the punishment. And whatever
the quibbles of men who can sec treason
IN nothing less than shooting our soldiers
in the field, we know that the Government
which has not the legal powcrto defend itself
against such malcontents, or, lacking the
legal authority, has not the courage to as
sumo aud exercise it without the warrant
of positive statute, needs 4 policy of in
surance on its Life to prove that it lives.
