IN UNION Is STRENGTH.

In recent speech upon question which he foresaw
would lead to fresh dssenons at the North In the
ranks of his party Mr. Senator DooLIrTLE held the
following languarge:
In Gods let us fret the Union let us crush
the rebellion let give freedom to the negroes the
it by constitutional amendment But let us postpone the
discussion aud action upon this and all other Issues which
ouly distract DIVIDE and weaken the energies
OF the loyal people in this great struggle For myself
would so conduct affairs if it within my power
that the whole people Of the Free States Loyal States
this controversy should stand together man shoulder
to shoulder speaking butone voice. but sent
ment their hearts pusang with wshthat is TO
the Government crush the rebellion and rampe the Slave
Confederacy in pieces"
Upon the single paramount issue Of saving the Gov
ernment" and maintaining the Union once had a
united people in the Loyal States II the remonstrance
which Senator Doolttle now 80 ferventy uers against
questions Of med strife had been needed from the first
and if those questions had been postponed to their proper
time and place. should have still had united people
On revertng to the history of the last two years, II will
be that the questions about which loyal men have
most widely and sharply differed questions which bad
not arisen in the necessary natural progress OF events,
but questions thrust upon the consideration OF Con-

DEATH OF GEN. sEDGwICK.

The reader will perceive, by the melancholy in
teigence elsewhere found in to-day's paper, that
the Army of the Potomac, and with it the coun-
try, has been called to deplore the loss Of ono Of
the most able, gallant, and distinguished of our
soldiers, in the person of Gen. SEDawIcK, the
late commander Of the Sixth Army Corps. He
fell in skirmish near Spottsylvana Court House
on Monday last
This mournful intelligence, it will be seen was
communicated to the Government yesterday in q
despatch from Gen. Grant, the text of which,
however is not published.

THE OUTRAGE AT FORT PILLOW.

We need not direct the attention of our readers
to the Report, elsewhere found in to-day's Intell
gencer, as made by portion of the War Commit
tee appointed to inquire into the truth of the re-
presentations made respecting the barbarities COM
mit,ed by the insurgent forces Of Gen. Forrest on
the occasion Of the capture of Fort Pillow, the
Mississippi river.
1t will be seen that those representations are
more than confirmed by this report whether re-
gard be had to the number or character of the re-
voting excesses committed by merciless foe in
the hour of victory. All that the imagination can
conceive of rLost brutal and fsLdsh in war seems
to have combined to swell the horrors Of the
bloody scene. War at its best estate is full Of
atrocities, but it is in such hideous pictures as
these that its features alright by their ghastlness.
The presence of negro troops among the Federal
garrison defending the fort appears to have been
the motive or pretext of these barbarities. What
ever may be said or thought by any respecting the
original expediency Of employing negro troops, it
is obvious that when once employed by the Gov.
ernment they entitled to the full protection of
the Government tits a part of the sad necessities
entailed by the policy which has thrust them into
the ranks of army that their there gives
ferocity to the foe. while it lays the Government
under the moral obligation of counter checking that
ferocity by some form of retaliation. Nothing is
clear than this obligation in point of theory
nothing is more embarrassing than, in practice, to
give it effect without committing the barbarities
We deprecate. What steps shall be taken to pro-
cure for the negro soldiers the same treatment is
awarded to the white, it is not for us to say. The
President in his only public reference to the SUBJ
ect has made it evident that he shrinks and justly
shrinks, from wreaking vengeance for these OUT
RACES on the persons Of innocent prisoners of the
enemy in our power.
The whole subject is beset with practical diff
cultes, as soon as it is lifted from the circle Of
passion into the domain of reason. Those who
heedessly urge the President to take counsel only
of his resentments in this terrible and delicate
complication would be, we may hope, more chary
of their adjurations if they were called to bear
the responsibility of their proposed measures, AS
the President must be called, in the face Of. the
civilized world and in full sense of his personal
and official duty, to bear the responsibility Of what
ever decision he may make in the premises.

THE REQUIREMENT OF LOYALTY"

The Cincinnati Gazette, in commenting on the
Presidents appointment of Major General BLAIR
to the command of the Seventeenth Army Corps,
after he had made violent attack on the official
conduct of the Secretary of the Treasury expresses
the opinion that such an appointment, conferred
by the President under such circumstances, is in
consistent with that view of "loyalty" which re-
quires support of the Administration in all its
"men and measures" To this effect our Repub-
lican contemporary says:
"There is another important aspect Of this in
loyal point of view. On account of the mighty
which engaged the necessity Of supporting the Ad
mnistratOn will hardly tolerate any difference Of opinion
to either measures. All must be sustained be-
the safety of the nation demands that the supporters
of the shall show an undivided front to the
enemy and shall make change of front OF base until
the rebellion s put down. But how this requirement
OF loyalty be fulfilled when the Head of the Admmisra-
tion holds in his hands, in state Of suspense the comms
sion of Of his subordinate officers while he into
Congress and assas the official integrity of the Head of
Department of the Administration and then restores
him his commission by act Of extraordinary Executive
authority il to reward him for this ssrvce' Is not this
calculated to demoraze that unanimous and unconditional
support Of the Administration which has thought equr
cd by this great crisis of the country"
This inference would undoubtedly be just one
if the Presidents view of "loyalty" was coinci-
dent with that of some among his super-service-
able partisans, but we have yet seen no evidence
to justify the belief that President Lincoln makes
any such exaction on the manliness or indepen-
dence Of bis intelligent and loyal countrymen.
He leaves the ignominy of such complaisance to
be assumed by few among his self-appointed SER
vitors, who prove nothing but their own sycophan-
cy when they inculcatc these maxims of abject and
passive submission to men in place. The stigma
which, in his letter to General Blair, he took the
pains to inAct on "insincere timeservers" at this
crisis, sufficiently shows that he values no loyalty
to "men" which does not spring from adherence
to principle, and no loyalty to ''measures" which
is not inspired by love Of country. We would adj
wise the partisans of the President net to adopt
more exaeting standard of loyalty on this score,
because the impression that they will thereby con.
cate the favor of the Executive is seen to be un-
authorized.

that he has done for the white man.

half of able-bodied men to the war.

Mr Lincoln.

The following excellent statement of un
doubted truth, is from the LA Crosse wis
consis) Democrat, which says:
The country me urns a million sons.
"Thc land is clad in mourning.
"There are to day more widows in black
than soldiers in blue.
'There are to day in the North more
prostitutes than ever before, driven t.
the dcrnier resort to escape starvation.
"Therc are more orphans in the land than
negroes in the South, but war must 90 on
according to the Abolition plan, till ruin
bankruptcy and starvation welcome with
emancpated fingers to pauper graves.
"Where are the statesmen of Ameri-

"Where are the sons and brothers lent

A glorious Union meeting was held at
Plymouth, Ind, on the 30tn ult.. at which
5000 people were present. Hon Schuyler
Colfax held the crowd spell bound for
over two hours by one of the most eloquent
and effective speeches of his life The
patriotism Of Northern Indiana is thor
oughly aroused. Chicago Tr,June.
Those Of our readers who were present
on the occasion referred to, will admire
the unblushing impudence of the state
ment that there were 5000 persons pres
emit We cOnversed with n number of
republicans on the subject and but one of
them put the number over 500. 1t is to
such INSCRIPTIONS lying that republicans
arc driven in order to bolster up a sinking
cause. As to the truth of the last sen
tence quoted from the Tribune, there is no
question: "the patriotism of Northern In
diana is thoroughly aroused" and the
result will be the displacement of "Hon.
Schuyler Colfax" by majority of not less
than 1000 votes.

INwoOp, September l, 1S6


Mr.. EDIToR:-Please grant me the
privilege through the Democrat" of sub
hitting to the consideration Of the people
of Marshall county the principal reasons
that shall prompt me to vote the Democrat
ic ticket at the coming November election
The first reason | have to offer for sup
porting that ticket is the inability of the
present State and National Administration
to manage the government in its present
critical condition, as the gross extrava-
gance and corruption now prevalent in
public affairs so clearly prove. But again,
the system of persecution and violence in
troduced by those in power against citizens
who differ with the Administration in po-
litical opinions, is another reason l have to
offer for supporting the Democratic ticket.
Still further: One after another of the
safeguards of Constitutional liberty have
been stricken down by the tyranical exer
else of Executive power, and it seems to
be more dangerous for man to exercise
his Constitutional rights than to be a thief
or public ro5ber. In violation Of the con-
stitution citizens have been arrested, i'm
prisoned and banished for using the free
dom of speech. This is the result of Adolf
ton rule, and shall prompt me to vote the
democratic ticket at the coming November
election In fact, theissue before the Amer
lean people at the present time, is liberty
or despotism. Therefore, it behooves
them as they value liberty, law and order,
to arise as one man and restore this gov
eminent to its ancient foundation, from
which it has been torn by sectional strife,
led on by ambitious and designing men,
who, TOR the sake of Office and power are
willing to sacrifice the finest fabric of hui
man government ever devised BY the wis
dom of man. Yours Truly
Emmett p. Morchouse
