Important Military Movements.

The indianapolis Sentinel thus notices an i'm
poriant military movement:
Yesterday regiment Of Massachusetts, sol
ders arrived in the city, and were quartered at
Camp Darlington Ii is said they are hundred
days men. They are to be followed in few
days By similar regiment from Pennsy lvania.
1t is also reported that five regiments from the
New England and the Eastern States are to be
distributed through Illinois"
AT time when it is pretended that we want
every bayonet in Virginia and Secessis, the Gov
eminent of Mr.. Lincoln weakens our armies in
those States in order to move upon Illinois and
Indiana. The defeat of Lee and the defeat of
Hood are not considered as matters of much i'm
portance at Washington compared with the reg
ulation of politics in the West by military force.
This wanton display of military power is intended
to aggravate the people into riots and difficulties
that will afford an excuse for proclaiming mill
tary dictatorship over those States. Let the
people defeat this conspiracy by refraining from
any acts that would give the semblance of an
apology for such course. The cabal at Wash
ington is getting desperate, in view of its certain
defeat if things go on quietly. Its only hope is
in a popular outbreak, which it will vainly seek
to provoke Gin. Eng.

that every voter shall abide by the result Of the
election. On any other principle elections are
imprictcable. This principle. too, makes the
officer chosen the officer OF the whole people
invests him with all the authority conferred by
the Constitution and laws upon the Office, either
for the protection Of the helpless or the coercion
Of the disobedien,. The exercise Of this author
ty. on the one hand and submission to it on the
other, inst what is implied 10 government.
Both are essential to every government-to the
free as well as to the despotic. To render this
obedience IL to ''render unto Caesar the things
that are Cesar's"
But you disagree with the policy of an Admin
stration; and feel that the measures which it
adopts. and the laws which il enacts tend 70 the
ruin Of the country. In such case what are you
to doi If its policy be not in contraveDtion of
the fundamental law; is its measures and en-
actmsnts are in conformity to the Constitution,
the case is plain one: You must obey the laws
you must not withstand the measures-you
must not attempt to defeat the policy, by any di-
rect opposition To do so in the judgment of all
parties in our country, has been held to involve
the moral guilt OF treason Ii was so regarded
by the Democrats during the Mexican war, and
so denounced by President Polk in at least one
of his aaDnul messages. All parties, except the
liberty party. so held and denounced it when the
fugitive slave act was called into question, and
nullifed by anti-slavery men of the North.
What then is left the minority in such casel
The right Of constitutional oppositiOn-the right
of discussion-the right to criticise and denounce
obnoxious measures; and finally the right of sut-
frage--the right to vote for change OF admin
istration. But while this change is sought by all
fair means, all constitutional laws and all lawful
orders of the existing administration must be
submitted to. and obeyed Nor is there any
Inconsistency in obeying, law of the land,
which you seek to repeal on any account
whatever. Could changes in the will of a
state be effected promptly as they sometimes
occur in the minds of individuals, it would be
otherwise. But it is not the work of a moment
to change the administration either of the State
or Federal Government; and until it is changed
according to the terms of the Constitution. those
who desire such change must "learn to labor and
to wait" They must also obey.

The following from cotemporary will show

service under the laws Of the United States
should repair without delay to the Offices OF the
Provost Marshals Of the respective districts aud
see thai their names are omitted from the En-
rolment The War Department desires the
rection OF The lists. and this is tie proper and
effectual method. There will be no delay:

The following persons are exempted by law
All aliens; persons under twenty and over forty
i've years OF age; persons who have been EN-
ployed two years In the military naval service
of the United States and been honorably dis
charged; persons in the military naval service
whenever a draft shall be made; also all who are

tons.

rhe Heyrt Not rouched

In the pulpit where we sat on the late fast day,
with other clergymen who were lamenting that
so few came TO the house OF God on that solemn
occasion, one of them remarked, 1.-the heart OF
the people has not vet been touched by the ludg-
ment of God
The war long ere this ought to have brought
the people into the dust OF humiliation with re
pentauee for sin. and strong crying to God to APP
pear for our salvation. But So far this has not
been the effect And We are strongly inclined to
believe that the fast cav observed with less
interest, and by fewer persons, than any similar
day that was ever set apart by the Praident.
This Is sad assertion. and IL would be CRAFTY
ing 10 US to receive letters, from all parts of the
country. assuring that we wrong in this
opinion. In this city We know that there was
comparatively little attention paid to the day BY
the masses of the people We fear it was so
generally. THE heart of the people has not
been touched by the judgment OF God"
What evidence have we that men are less GOV
etous and dishonest IN their dealingsy Is there
less incompetence or more? Did men ever use
so much profane swearing as now! Is Sabbath
breaking less a common vice than il was ten
years agoI THE heart of the people has not
been touched by the judgment of God
Havewe any evidence that the people are dis
posed to look away from men. and TO put their
trust in God! They make many and long
prayers for the country. but do they pray as they
would if they believed that the issue of this con
fct depends on the will of Him who holds the
destiny OF nations in bis bandsl We see and
hear no evidence that this sense of dependence il
general, however strong NAV be the feeling Of
individual Christians here and there on the point.
The heart Of the people has not been touched. "
That heart must be touched The people,
each one. however humble. and remote. and OBJ
scure. must break down into the duS. of humility
aud repentance. and cry INTO God. Nov is the
time 10 pray. But the heart of the people has
not been touched. IN. Y. Observer.

The following is an extrsc, of letter from =
soldier of a Wisconsin regiment. in the army

among the soldiers, il is interesting. The revo-
luton nov in rapid progress 10 the public mind oil

more the victims of the imbecility and fanaticism

twenty in the three days engagement: other

a stiff old Democrat of the Oldest die and ht
sends his best respects to you. He is in the 18th

will go up and see you again, to cast another vote
for you for Sheriff And be tells me that in the
18th regiment Lincoln won't get two votes fol
President. And | find that such is the story oil
most of the soldiers now days, as they think
that Lincoln can nerer put down the rebellion
or give the rebels any terms that they could live
under.
The old veterans think that Lincoln and the
rest of the abolitionsts came it on them in get
ting them to enlist again by saying that there
would be peace this coming summer. and they
are sorry enough for it now a days: but as it is
at present, they are confident. by not casting
their vote for him. that he will not be the Presi
