az A parcel of drunken Copperheads got on
the rampage at Mason. Ef6ngham County, Ills,
on the 26th ult., and attempted to commit out
RACES on the persons and property Of some OF
the Union men most hateful to them. They
we're speedily taught that such acts were deci.
dedly dangerous to their health, and il persist,
ed in would incur speedy and terrible vengeance.
The Union men took but short time to con-
vince them, despite their drunkenness, that they
would be compelled to keep the "peace,D if il
had to be done by digging graves for them. +

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, MONDAY,

8. That the State of Indiana, on account of her
devotion to the Union. and her geographical po-
stion and commercial interest, neTer will consent
to any settlement upon a basis of dsunion or a
policy which shall separate her from the States
bordering upon the Mississippi river Her highest
interest demands the perpetuation of the Union,
and especially that the Great Valley of the Mis-
sissippi from its source to its mouth shall remain
under one government and one flag.
Z That the war i'm which we are engaged ought
to cease as soon as il can be brought to an hon
orable and satisfactory termination; and upon
that subject the people who are bearing its bur
dens have right to sbeak. Therefore, our Sen
tors in Congress are instructed, and our Repre-
sentatves requested TO use all the po Ser and in
huence of their positions, by bill, resolution, or
otherwise. TO accomplish the following objects,
viz: i. To procure armistice of at least six
months between the Federal and Confederate ar
mics, for the purpose of testing the possibility of
permanent peace on the basis of the Union.
2. To pass law calling Convention Of all the
States, composed of delegates freely chosen by
the people, to take into consideration the state of
the country, and to devise some plan of settlement
to be submitted to a vote of the people North
and South by which the Union shall be preserved
and the country restored to a lasting peace.
g. That the Governor be directed to transmit
a certified copy of the foregoing preamble and
resolutions to each of our Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress, to be laid before their
respective bodies; and to tke Governor of each
of the States to be by them laid before their res
pectiye Legislatures.

MILITARY Affairs of the state.

proposition introduced into the House
yesterday inquiring into the expedency of invest
ing the military affairs and power of the State
them into Military Board for that purpose.
This suggestion elected discussion yes
terday, and will continue to do so until it is dis
posed of. As we understand the proposition, it
is not intended to deprive the Governor of any
constitutional authority as Commander in Chief
of the militia of the State, but in measure to
relieve him of the responsibility of acting alone
in the important contingencies which may arise
in the present critical condition of public affairs.
A good man, one who sincerely desires to pro-
mote the best interests and the common welfare
of the people of the State, should not object to
counsel in determining the duties and response
bilities which may devolve upon him. Neces-
sarily large discretion in the conduct of the
military affairs of the State must be invested
somewhere, and it is proper that the prevailing
sentiment of the people should be represented and
respected. We do not know what exgency may
arise before another Legislature convenes. and
therefore it becomes necessary, in view of thepe
cular condition of the country to provide for the
difficulties and troubles that may occur, so far as
possible. The question for the Legislature to de
termine is, whether this discretionary power shall
be reposed in the Governor exclusively, or be di
vided with co ordinate authority?
1t seems to US there can be but one opinion in
that regard. The people of the State are divided
in sentiment to the policy of the Government
The Governor represents only portion of the
people lie is the representative of party and
such he seeks to advance its principles and
purposes. Can it, with justice, be asked that the
whole power of the State should, under such
circumstances, be placed at his cOntrol2 Ger
tainly not. The recent election shows that
majority of the people differ with the party that
the Governor represents. Is it not right that
their wishes should be respected and represented
in the conduct and direction of the authority and
power of the State? This much must be con-
cel lei by every right thinking citizen. What
then? In some way the majority must have
voice at least an equal voice, in the control of
military affairs. The people will not consent that
this delicate and. responsible trust shall be left
with one man. We therefore favor the PROPOSE
ton of Military Board, including the Governor,
with whom shall be invested the military power of
the State.
Indiana State sentinel. (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1861-1865, 1863-02-02

proposition was introduced into the House
an Tuesday by Mr.. WooLLEN, inviting the Legis-
latures of Illinois, Ohio, and Kentucky, now in
session, to meet the Legislature Of this State. at
Louisville. on the 22d of February. The sug-
gestion is worthy of consideration and the day
selected for the meeting is most opportune-the
birthday of the Father of his Country. In the
present crisis Of the nation, the lofty patriotism
of Washington and his unselfsh devotion to his
country eminently worthy of emulation and
imitation. No harm can come from such meet
ing, and much good may result. Let the repre-
sentatives of the people of Ohio, Illinois, Ken
lucky and Indiana meet in council and discuss
the difficulties which environ the country in the
spirit such an occasion would naturally inspire,
and we have no doubt all will be impressed
with the conviction that whatever difference of
sentiment may exist as to The best means of
accomplishing the end, the common purpose of
preserving free, constitutional Government.
animates and controls the people of these great
States alike.
