The Lowest and Meanest Depth,

During the past seven years we have
looked over and read great many
newspapers, both Of loyal and rebel pro-
clivities, and affiliations. We cannot
now call to mind solitary instance in
which any one of them denounced q
reasonable appropriation by the city or
county authorities where they were pub
ished, to aid in the proper observance
and celebration of Anniversaries of the
Declaration of National Independence.
When the war-was raging furioasly,
many rebel newspapers urged the proper
celebration of theFourth of July. They
were unwilling that the Southern people
should lose all their interest in its glori
GUS memories. It is reserved for the
Evansville Courier to descend to the
depth of meanness necessary to denounee
an appropriation asked for by the people
to aid in celebrating the joyous event.
This conduct on tie part Of the Courier
may seem strange to those wac are not
acquainted with the editors political
afinitiet, and WHO forget that our last
Fourth Of J j var the anniversary Of the
surrender Of Yicksburg and the retreat
of Lees army from its defeat at Gettya-
burg, as it was of the birth of American
Independence. To those acquainted
with, and remembering, all the facts in
the case, everything is perfectly consist.
ent and easy of explanation.

shaving their Haads.

In the Senate yesterday morning the
following. resolution was offered BY SEN
ator Benton of Kenton:
Resolced, That The Committee on Re-
vised Statutes be, and are hereby, in
structed, to inquire inso the propriety of
repeating all laws of this Commonwealth
which relate to the subject of slavery,
and that they report by bill or otherwise
In the discussion of this resolution,
Mr.. Senator Cochran Of Shelby County
made a speech opposing it, in the course
of which he declared that he believed
JEFF. Davis was a traitor, in trying, to
destroy the Constitution Of the United
States; that President Lincoln was also
a traitor, because be bad gone as far as
jeff Davis in destroying the Constitu-
ton; and that Andrew johnson was a
traitor, because he had gone as far as
President Lincoln in destroying the
Constitution.
Ex-Govs Helm, Senator from Hardin,
said if President Johnson or Congress
sent their edicts TO Kentucky, and they
were in cnntravention Of States Rights,
then be was ready to rebel against such
edicts. While he acknowledged the
power in the States to adopt the. Consti-
tutional Amendment, yet he believed,
with the Senator from Shelby, that its
adoption did not destroy slavery in Ken.

The resolution vas lost by vote Of
ayes, Is, noessl9 but one Conservative

Thus the cry of notification and
rebellion is already raised in the Legis-
lature of Kentucky sAOo course, the
edicts spoken of by Senator Helm refer
to the Constitutional amendment, for
that was the only question in contro-
versy. And if this attempt to enforce il
is made in Kentucky the Senator is
ready to rebel. This, we suppose, is the
something startling, referred to by the
Louisville Conservative organ, that was
soon to be heard from Frankfort. The
standard of revolt was to be raised, and
at the Capitol We thank God that the
armies of. the UEion are not yet dis
banded Tor rebellion is rife here in
Kentucky, ready, TO break out if the
policy of the. Administration is success

We are not surprised at the course of
the Senator from Shelby, as his county
has been from the first the hot bed Of
Kentucky. treason. Nor are we sur.
prised at the remarks of the Senator
from Hardin, as he from the first of the
rebellion has been elassed with the most

The Frankfort, Ky, Commonwealth
says that there is good deal being said
by Kentucky Conservatives about politi-
cal harmonySai forgetting of the past,
letting bygones be bygones. In fact it
is pet hobby of theirs. They are call
ing upon all to lay aside luminosity, to
cherish forgiying spirit and to lay
aside evan party strife. They want
Union and harmony. But their practice
does not accord with their preaching
They most virtuously call to harmony,
but make mental reservation with
regard to tEose who all through the late
bloody strife have stood loyal to the
Union, and shut them entirely out of
their views and purposes of peace. :"
The above holds equally good with some
so-called Conservatives in this latitude.

Wages In the SOu.h.

The Southern papers are continually
cIamoring for white laborers; and yet
what encouragement do they offer to
their, migration? They have-not the.
least idea what free labor is worth. A
company at Montgomery, Alabama, has
issued circular intended to encourage
agricultural laborers to immigrate to
the Southern States. The rate of wages
are given in the following extract:

1t does not appear strange to us that
men, who have always been rebels in
feeling and action, should atill manifest
their rebel proclivities. We have no
philosophical reason for expecting the
leopard TO change his spots in the nine
teenth century, any more than he was
in the habit of doing in the earlier his
tory of the world.
Senators Cochran and Helm surprise
nobody. We are as little disturbed by
their manifestations of hostility to the
Government, as we are at the ungov-
ernable rage into which the mere recol-
lection of money spent for appropriate
ly celebrating the Fourth of July-the
Anniversary of National independence
seems to throw the Courier Of this
city. Senator Helm is disposed to rebel
against the enforcement, OF the Consti,
tutional Amendment, and the CoAr ie'
is equal li4stile against proper cele
bration of the Fourth of July. We pre-
sumo the Senator would cheerfully obey
the Montgomery Constitution, end the
editor of the Courier as gladly celebrate
the anniversary of lis adoption by the
rebel States. Par mobile frGtruns.

The Albany Eoeadng Journal says, in
speaking of the disloyal character of the
Virginia Legislature:
CAT session on Friday one chival-
rous gentlemen remarked, in reference
to the supposed opinion of Mr.. Johnson,
that he did not care what that opinion
was: be thought the great State of Vn-
ginia had truckled to the Washington
authorities about long enough; and the
expression was received with applause. "
This is only fair sample of the pre-
vailing temper of the South. The less
such men as that Virginia legislator
have to do with our Govern ment the
