Another Howl ChOked Down.

The following Order, No. 205, was is
sued from the War Department on the
7th of this month: -d H
."The muster into service of John G.
Hughes, as Chaplain of the 35th Indiana
Volunteers, is hereby revoked, and he is
discharged the service from the date of
the muster in, he being an imposter, and
guilty of obtaining the said muster in
a clandestine and disgraceful manner"
"Chaplain," in this extract, is an err
ror, either of the copyist or compositor.
John G. Hughes, was Captain in the
35th Indiana (Ist Irish) Regiment. AS
little can be said in praise of his militia
ry career in this State, as of the way he
began it, or of the way the War
Office ended it. He was not citizen
of Indiana at all, but, through the con-
trivance and assistance of John c. Wal
ker, then Colonel of the Regiment,
(now Repudiating State Agent) he OBJ
tanned commission and muster into
the service, pronounced by the War De-
partment fraud His "imposture, as
it is officially denounced, was probably
as much the work of his Colonel as
himself and if the former had not been
dismissed for insubordination long ago,
there is little doubt that he would have
been "Iifted" ont along with Hughes for
a share in the "elandestine and disgrace
fll muster" Ill-feeling, excited by the
efforts of Col Walker to crowd Hughes
into the position of some of the Irish
field officers, for long time weakened
the regiment, but under Col Mullen 1T
has become one of the most efficient,
gallant, and creditable regiment in
the service No troops fought better at
Murfreesboro', and none will ever fight
better than the brave boys who unite the
harp of Ireland with the stars of the
. Union on their flag, and hold in charge
the honor and fame of their mother
country, as well as the country of their
adoption.-IndianapOHs Jour.
1t will be remembered what howl
the Copperhead press set up over this
case of one of "Morton's appointees be-
ing dismissed as an imposter," &c. Not
one of them will be honest enough to
show to their readers, that Col. John c.
Walker, the Democratic State Agent,
was the instrumentality by which this
imposition, this 'clandestine and disgrace
ful muster" were accomplished We
have no doubt, nay we know, that many
impositions were practiced on the Gov
ernor, through the instrumentality of
leading Copperheads, in securing the
"clandestine and disgraceful muster" of
incompetent and dishonest officers.

Vallandigham COnfesses His Sentence
Just.


The Murfreesboro correspondent of
the Cincinnati Gazette, who accompa-
MED the flag of truce which conveyed
the traitor, Vallandigham, to the rebel
lines, says:
The bearing of Mr. Vallandigham
throughout the whole affair was modest,
sensible and digniied. In conversation
with your correspondent, he candidly
admitted that the dealings of the GoU-
ernment with himself Uere necessary
and justfable. If the Union were to
be restored by war, he admitted that in
that case the Government would be OBJ
liged to use all the physical force of the
loyal States, and could tolerate no oppo-
sition. This, however, he declared
would be at the expense of the free
principles of our Constitution whereas,
he thought that by the adoption of his
plan not only might these principles be
conserved, but the Union of the States
ultimately restored.
This acknowledgment on the part of
Vallandigham that his sentence " is nec-
essary and justifable" ought to stop the
mouths of the bowling traitors who are
denouncing the Government and the
Courts for furnishing an enemy of the

To the People OF Indiana.
STATE OF INDIANA,
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.
Indianapulis, Nav 25th


/ propose that the people of Indiana
shall purchase tract of land, say one
hundred acres, in the neighborhood of
Indianapolis, to be converted into 2
Cemetery, for the burial of Indiana Of
fcers and soldiers that upon this
ground Monument shall be erected up
on which shall be inscribed the names
of the battles in which Indiana troops
have been engaged that the ground
shall be appropriately laid off into lots,
with paths and carriage ways, and
adorned according to the design, and
under the direction, Of competent per-
son or board (; that lot shall be desig-
mated and set apart for each Indiana
regiment and battery, upon which doubt
less the regiments and batteries will
erect monuments or memorials, accord
ing to designs and bearing inscriptions
to be determined on and furnished by
themselves that all Indiana officers and
soldiers, whenever and wherever they
die, whether during the war or after
peace shall have been restored, shall be
entitled to be buried in this Cemetery
And to this end l propose that subscrip-
ton books be opened in every county in
the State, and invite all persons who are
grateful to our soldiers and revere their
memories, to subscribe at least one dol

persons to open subscription books and

Can't Endorse 1t.

The following proposition" of Gov.
Morton is worthy of attention. We have
long entertained "a high opinion of the
admirable 6nanceeriug ability displayed
by the residents of the State Capital, by
which their city is being beautifed and
enriched at the expense of other parts of
the State; but the Governors PROPOSE
tion for the purchase, and adorning of
grand Park of 100 acres, for the use of
the Capital, is a flight considerably be-
yond even our highest opinion. No one
imagines that the friends of the soldiers
in different parts of the State, would con-
sent that their remains should be depos-
tied in a cemetery so far from home,
merely for the sake of having them COW
cred by magnificent monument, and
surrounded by beautiful promenades
crowded daily with giddy and thoughtless
pleasure seekers, who may desire to
while away an idle hour in cool groves
and shady walks. The hand of affection
can more tastefully adorn the last rest
Ing place of loved ones, nearer home.
If money is to be spent in a manner
designated by the Governor, it would be
far better for each county to make its
own arrangements for its own dead-as
our own county has done already in part
and if monuments are to be erected, as
they will be, letlthem be scattered through
QUIT he State at the various county seats.
Then it will not be necessary for the
children and grand-childr en- to make
long pilgrimages to the Capt. al to visit
the graves of their heroic fathers.
They will be found in every part of the
State, and the lesson: What it cost to
preserve this Government, will be taught
in ever county town, where the superb
monument or simple slab, marks the
resting place of its noble defenders.
The following is the Governors "pro-
position:

Gen. Jackson's Prediction In 1888

Reference was recently made TO Gen.
Jackson's prediction in 1888, that the
nulli6ers would, on the first occasion that
they undertook to destroy the Govern
ment, make slavery the pretext, and
there are occasionally inquiries as to tie
words used by jackson, and the occasion
that called them forth Gen. Jackson,
writing May 1, 1898, to the Rev. Andrew
J. Crawford, gave his opinion of the
nullifers, just then subsidized, and conclu-
ded with the following:
"The tariff was only the pretext, and
disunion and Southern Confederacy
the real object The next pretext will
be the negro or slavery question.

LATE FROM VICKSBURG.
o. P. MORTON,
Governor of Indiana.

The steamer Luminary left Vicksburg
on the 22d, and arrived at Memphis on
the 25th inst. By her the latest sketch
of Grants campaign was brought up and
telegraphed from Memphis to the Gin
cinnati Gazette, as follows:
'On the 18th, the larger part of the
army lay stretched out from point
few miles west of Raymond to jackson,
anticipating an attack from the direction
of Edwards Station. Gen. Grant sud-
denly massed his forces between Ray
mond and Bolton, Sherman moving
down from jackson, north of the rail
road, and toward Edwards Station,
Mcpherson moving toward Bolton,
Blair's division and Ransom brigade of
McArthur's division arriving at Ray
mond from the west McClernand' s
corps afterward lay on or near the main
road from Raymond to Bolton. On the
10th, the movement toward Edward S
Station began-Hoveys division Of Nc
Clernands corps, followed by McPher-
sons on the right by the road from Boil
ton; Osterhaus' division followed by
tJdTT Oh Jue CeHtT6 ny HIuulc IJdO
and Smiths division, followed by Blair s
on the left by the first road from Ray
mond to Edwards Station. Ransom s
brigade afterward moved up as a reserve
behind Carr's division, The action was
begun about a. m, by an attempt OF
the enemy to turn our left, which was
promptly met and checked by Smith 8
division. The bulk of the enemy's force
was then massed upon our right and
center, held by Hovey's division. The
struggle here was most bitter, until about
two o clock p. m, when Hovey, being
s,rengthe ned by Crocker, began todri' G
tue enemy, while Mcpherson, having
come up on the right, swung around and
turned the enemy sleft Osterhaus' di
vision, on the center, had, in the mean
time, kept up a vigorous and steady
pressure of the enemy. At about hal
past two p. m, the day was decided III

ham, which was loudly applauded; yet
Lieut.. Maury, who commands a rebel
pirate ship, recently said, through the
columns of the London Times, that
" Vallandigham was watching over the
border, pledged, if elected Governor of
Ohio, to array the State against Lin
coins Government"
What do you think of that, Democrats
of Posey county, Do you think there is
no danger? Remember that there was
thought to be no danger in the South,
until it was too late to remedy the evil.
Vallandigham, Voorhees,, and other false
leaders are arousing our animosity
against President Lincoln, and are max
ing the same appeals to our passions and
prejudices that jeff Davis, Yincey, and
other false leaders made to the passions
and prejudices of the epeople of the South,
goading them to madness, and deluding
them with secession.
Are not we in the North the same
race of people as those in the South and
are not we liable to be deceived by dema-
gogues, as they have been, and precipi-
tated into civil war, before we are aware
OF 1t, II we, like them, cease to give heed
to the dictates of reason, and listen only
to the voice of passion and prejudice,
and suffer the order of the Knights of
the Golden Circle, of Southern origin
and traitorous design, to be established
in our midst?
To-day, Ohio is volcano of political
excitement, ready to burst into flame,
and when once it has commenced, where
will it end? The only way to Judge of
the future is by the past We have seen
what false leaders have done in the
South. The tree has borne its fruit.
Shall it be the same with us in the North
Or will we bow to the will of the majority,
which placed President Lincoln in pow
er, and patiently live under his admins
tration until his term of Office expires,
thinking more of our country than we do
of our party A WAR DEMOCRAT.

Bu, we do not esari the stopping Of the

In lieu of stopping tho war and sur
