TIE GERMAN UHIoE CoNvEETIoE.-Iht
Convention met on Friday evening at Elmer
Hall. The following resolutions, establish
| ing a permanent organization, were adopted
The resolutions will be found to be the prop
er expression of what our patriotic German
friends feel on the subject of politics:
POLITICAL UNION.
l. This Union is intended for q rendezvoul
Of Germans, to discuss the questions Of the
day, as we'll for reciprocal Indictment as FOL
the promotion of unity Of sentiment.
2. This Union recognizes no separation
from American fellowship of opini9n, it viii
only stand forth as the enemy Of the actual
declaration, on the part Of Americana Of
| the doctrines Of nativism.
8. The political design Of the Union is a
| struggle towards the realization Of the prin-
ciples expressed in the Proclamation Of Inde-
| pendence:
That all men are created free and equal /;
that they are endowed by their Creator with
certain inalienable rights that among these
are life, liberty, and the pursuit Of happiness.
4. We see in the present great struggle,
not the result of party victory or party de-
feat, but the necessary consequences of the
collision of antsgonistio principles. In the
udluEGl QeN6lODLuenI OF LnG OemOCrHLlC luehH
on which our Government is founded, lies the
irrepressible tendency to separate from its
nature all aDti-DemOcratic elements. The
recognition Of this inexorable logic drives the
defenders of slavery to REBELLION as soon as
the verdict of the people intrusts the dominion
to other hands. This rebellion, which repre-
sents feudalism, puts the entire civilization
Of the time in question, and must, therefore,
be mercilessIy trodden under foot. Hence
we are for the energetic prosecution Of the
war, and held it for an inevitable necessity
of ofslavery to completely annihiIats the cause
Of the war. tits only by this means that the
fruit of the struggle viii be made to CORES
pond with the price paid therefor.
8. The members Of this Union pledge them
selves to operate in political life cOnfOrma-
bly, with the above resolutions to procure the
expression and recognition of the same.
6. The Union shall have the requisite or
ganizatiOn Of officers, to wit: President,
Vice President, Recording Secretary, Cores
ponding Secretary, and Treasurer; these Of
icers to perform the customary duties Of their
respective positions.
I. Furthermore, standing committee Of
six shall be elected by the Union, which com
mittee, in conjunction with the above named
officers, rhall represent the Union in external
matters, and shall be especially jealous in
the promotion of harmony of action with sim
liar associations.
8. Membership in the Union is to be OBJ
tanned by subscribing TO the foregoing rules.
9. There shall be an election of officers
every six months.
The following ticket of officers was elected
to act during the next six months:
President-Jaeob Mueller.
Vice President-Edward HessenmuelIer.
Recording Seoretary-Jacob Schroeder.
Corresponding Secretary-G. W. Schmidt.

SPECIAL DISPATCHES.
FROM INDIANA.
The Rebel Raid---A Bold Ez-
pedition.
ITO the Gin cinnati Commercial


LOUISVILLE, June 10.
Early yesterday morning a portion Of
the 4th Kentucky (rebel) Cavalry, estims.
ted at two hundred strong, crossed the Ohio
River, near Leavenworth, Indiana, and
pushed their way to Paoli, arriving there
about six o'clock in the evening. At tPaoH,
they went to the house Of Thomas BraxtOn,
who had number of fine horses, and took
all bis horses and mules, and carried Mr..
BraxtOn away as prisoner. After this,
the rebels left Paoi for Orleans, Orange
county.
By this time, the whole country had been
alarmed, end about one o'clock this morn
ing, the Home Guards from Mitchell ar
rived at Orleans. Hearing that the rebels
were near the town, the Home Guards
pushed out to meet them. They encoun-
tered the rebels about three o'clock, on the
road between Orleans and Salem, three
miles from Orleans, and a sharp skirmish
ensued, in which three of the Home Guards
were wounded and twenty captured
The Home Guards fought gallantly, but
the rebels, being well mounted and armed,
repulsed the little band.
1t is reported that on yesterday after
noon the gang entered Vallene, Orange
County, where they demanded horses,
food, SC. Upon the refusal Of the citizens
to supply these demands, the guerrillas
burned the town and carried away several
citizens as prisoners. This report is not
thought reliable.
This morning large number of conva-
lescents, under command of Colonel Mer-
riWeather, left New Albany for the field of
action, and this afternoon three hundred
more, left, under the command of Colonel
1t is thought that the rebel band will
soon be captured, as troops have been sent
out in all directions to intercept and cap
ture them.
The object of the raid was to destroy the
railroad bridges across the roads running
TO this point to prevent the further trans
mission of stores for the present to de-
stroy all government property, and then
make good their escape to Dixie.
No raid attempted during the war has
been SO full of daring and danger as this
,ne, and is made, very likely, in concert
With other movements of greater moment,

To the Cincinnati Commereial.l
MEMPHIS, June IS.
Yesterday afternoon, at half past four
o'clock, as the Alice Dean, from the Yazoo
river, arrived at the foot Of Buck Island,
thirty-fve miles below this city, force of
guerrillas, estimated at 200, appeared on
the Arkansas shore. Before the boat was
fairly opposite they opened on her with
small arms and a couple of Founders.
The firing continued until nineteen shot
and she'll and four or five hundred musket
and rife-shot were discharged.
Nine cannon shot struck the boat. One
passed under the boilers, two between the
boilers and the deck, and musket balls,
canister and shrapnel were scattered about
in many places. Shot Of various kinds
struck every part of the boat. George
KlOpp, a deck hand, was killed-almost
cut in two by cannon-ball. Another, r.
win, was wounded. An escape-pipe, and
steam-pipe were cut, which considerably
retarded our progress. Later in the eve.
ming, the Rocket and Commercial, also
from below, arrived in the vicinity. As they
entered Culcit Bend, they received heavy
musketry fire. The Rocket received TWEEN
ty-seven, and the Commercial seventeen
shots.
The firing was KEPT up for two miles,
the guerrillas running along the banks at
the foot of Buck Island.
A battery opened with she'll and grape,
and vigorous fire of musketry was kept
up. FOUNDER shots passed through
both boats; one struck the Rockets boiler,
causing it to leak badly; one also went
through her saloon and the Commercials 8
bar, demolishing it; and one cut of the
Rockets cam-rOds. The engineers and
pilots Of the boats stood at their posts,
though the shot and shell were raining on
them.
The fremen temporarily deserted their
posts, but soon returned and the boat was
finally got out of danger. No one was in
jured.
