THE INDIANAPOLIS MOR---A DARK
INITIATION

Speaking Of the riotous and murderous
proceedings which attended the visit of the
President and his suite to indianapolis, and
which General GRANT characterized as
shameful, the National Intelligeneer says:
The individuals concerned in this infa-
nous outrage belonged to party which has
claimed to be the party Of progress, of law
and order; but they now habitually engage
in riotous disturbances and shoot down
those who disagree with them. They claim
to exhibit unusual respect for authority;
yet they have, upon premeditation and sys-
tematically, thrust indignities upon the
President Of the United States. They claim
to be the special champions Of free speech /;
yet they silence their own Chief Magistrate
in the attempt to reply to an address of well
come. Grant that the President was about
to say what they did not want to hear; he is
the chief officer Of the nation, and is entitled
10 something more than the courtesy dine
any public speaker. We deplore this, not
on account Of the President--hecan stand the
disfavor Of those who ally themselves to row.
dies-but we deplore it as an exhibition
Of mob violence, and on account Of the hurt
il will do the country abroad, when a rabble
of partisans is permitted, by brutal Outcries
aud riotous proceedings, to prevent the Pre-
sident Of the United States from addressing
those Of his fellow-citizens who wished 10
hear him. Cleveland earned an enviable
notoriety in this regard; but the misconduct
Of its citizens is disgraeefully eclipsed by

The following sensible remarks were in
dulged in by Gov. Cox, of Ohio, in a recent
speech. And yet he persists from the mere
want of moral courage, in utilization with
the Jacobins of this country:
For my own part have looked upon the
terrible experience of the war itself as the
best possible safeguard against future rebel
lions, and as | hold the protection of the
community to be the chief object in punish
ing political ofIenses, I have regarded inflic-
lions of any sort upon whole classes of citi-
zens as unnecessary, and therefore unadvis-
able. / remember that HALLAM. a high
authority in the philosophy of history, has
declared that "clemency is the standing
policy Of constitutional governments, as Sc
verify is of despotism," and that the great
Lord CHATHAM adopted the "bold, vet, as
it proved, most safe and wise policy of rails
ing Highland regiments from the lately dis
affected clans soon after the last effort of
the STUARTs to recover the English throne.
Rebellion had become chronic in the
mountains Of Scotland, and through three
generations the Highlandmen had lost no
opportunity of disturbance The fathers
fought under MoNTRosE for the dethroned
family, and the grandsons were out under
the romantic CHEvALIER, yet as soon as they
hadlearned the lesson that the Government
was too strong for them, CHATHAM trusted
them, and more than twenty years after
wards, when our revolution again brought
up the question how rebels should be dealt
with, the old statesman, who was our adyo-
cate, referred with pride to his policy in re-
gard to the clans, exeisiming, They were
reclaimed by his means" Every American
must bow with more than ordinary respect
to that authority. know that the same
spirit pervades the Union party, and every
honest observer must admit that the most
earnest advocates of universal amnesty have
been found among those known as the ex-
tremest Radicals

NEW YoRK. Sept. 1.-The Herald's Washing
ton special says: In previous dispatch / under
stood there was good reason to believe that in a
few days JEFFERSON DAVIS would be released on
parole or bail. | received my information from
a high official, who possesses excellent facilities
for learning the Presidents views an intentions
On such subjects. The announcement ,crea-
ted quite hutter among the politicians, ana sew
eral very influential ones favorable to the Presi-
dents restoration policy, ventured to call on him
to ascertain if the announcements were we'll
founded. They urged the President TO defer any
action in the matter until after the fall elections,
reminding him be was already accused Of sympa-
thizing with rebels. and abusing the pardoning
power and assuring him that the release of the
head rebel. at this time. would be handled by the
Radicals in the present campaign with powerful
effect and greatly impair the chances OF the party
new lab0ring to elect to Office men who would
support his. the Presidents, policy. This have
on undoubted authority.
The Presidentreplied that many distinguished
gentlemen from both North and South had APP
pealed to him for the release Of Mr.. DAVIS. and
had presented several considerations which made
favorable impression on his mind why DAVIS
should not be held any longer IN confinement; and
that he had said to them that If, from any fault
Of the court or the proper officers Of the Govern-
ment DAVIS should not be brought to trial in Oe-
tOber he should not, from any reason then known
to him, deem it his duty to hold the prisoner for
another day. But IN giving the friends of DAVIS
this assurance, he had anticipated the action of
the court, and had not appointed any time for
DAVIS release in the event of his not being tried.
He declared that he had from the first desired to
have DAVIS tried for treason, and had used such
influence and authority as he possessed to
have the trial take place at an early
day but If there should be any further delay in
bringing on the trial. he believed that neither the
interests of the country nor his duty demanded
that he keep the prisoner longer in custody. He
also stated that he unable to perceive that the
release Of DAVIS on parole or bail would furnish
| the Radicals with valuable weapon, but that he
/ believed the masses, if there should be further
unnecessary delay in bringing him to trial, would
| approve Of his being eonditionally released.
| 1t is well understood in the best informed cir
| eles that DAVIS win not be tried at the October
| term so that his release may be looked for soon
AFTER but not till after that time. Mr. REED, OF
DAVIS counsel. had been authorized by the AttOr
ney General TO say TO his client that the Govern
/ ment would direct his immediate release on the
| condition of his leaving the country. and never
| returning, and that DAVIS Indignantly rejected
the offer.

THE ROBBERY OF THE MT. STER-
LING. KY, BANk---I8EPOkTANT DE-
CISIONOETHE COURT OF APPEALS.

The Kentucky Court of Appeals has rem
dered an important decision in the case of
the Farmers Bank VS.. WTTHERsPooN. The
latter, who was n Lieutenant in MORGAN's
command, was with the forces which cap
tuIed Mt. Sterling, on the Sth of June, 1864.
The Mt. Sterling branch of the Farmers
Bank was robbed of 5000 by a subaltern
officer and small band of soldiers, whether
by MoRGAN's sanction or not was not in
evidence. 1t did not appear that WITHER-
SPOON had any personal share in the rob-
berry, but for his imputed participation the
mother bank sued him, procured a judg-
ment in the Circuit Court against him for
$50, 057 SO, and proceeded to sell his land,
which it had attached. After the sale, but
before a confirmation of the report of it, the
appellant filed an answer, denying any par.
ticipation in the robbery, before or after,
direct or indirect, openly or covertly. On
the issue thus formed, the testimony just
alluded TO was taken. On the final hearing
of the case thus opened, the Circuit Court
affirmed its former judgment and confirmed
the sale.
WITHERsPooN carried the matter before
the Court of Appeals, which reversed the
decision of the lower tribunal, holding that
it was not liable unless every other indivi-
dual soldier was equally 50. There was no
proof that such spoliation was one of the
objects of MoRGAN's invasion. The capture
of the town was not in military point of
view an unlawful act. There would have
been no robbery if there would have been
no capture, and no capture unless there had
been unconstitutional secession, but to 60
back thus far would make all who we're
responsible for the rebellion equally liable.
This would prove too much. The appel
liant, however reprehensible his rebellion
may have been, should not be made the vic
tim for the wrong in which he took no more
part than every other rebel in MoRGAN's
army, or even elsewhere.

ONE OF THE SOUTH CAROLINA DELE
GATEs-The New York correspondent of
the Charleston Courier, makes the following
reference to the South Carolina delegation to
the Black-and-T Convention:
The Philadelphia Press gives out that the
names of the delegates from South Carolina
are not mentioned, because If known the
parties would be massacred by the rebels of
that State. see by the HedlFs report the
name Of "E. p. CUTLER, of Charleston, S.
c." figuring in the Convention, SO pre-
sumo he must be one of the loyal delegates
from our Siaten This man CUYLER is a
Cape Cod Yankee by birth, and lived North
during the last years of the war. He was
pimp Of the police authorities in New York,
and was especially detailed to play the spy
on Southern people visiting the city. After
a while he was detected by General DIX in
blackmailing Southerners, and was broken
and lodged in the same jail where so many
of his victims had been immured. How
much Of a representative of the South he is,
may be imagined by this little notice of his
career, Ito he continued at a future time.)

AK ELECTION FUND VOTED by CONGRESS.
"A good deal Of surprise has been express
ed, says the New York Times, that Congress
did not postpone the vote increasing the pay
Of is members until the next session. The
reason begins 20 be apparent. The extra
$4,000 was needed to secure their reelection.
Each member has that sum ertrd, 20 be de-
voted 10 this specific purpose. The Radical
members are thus put in possession Of a grand
corruption fund amounting to over $500, 900,
taken directly out Of the public treasury, and
distributed among the members-nearly
every one Of whom is a candidate for re-
election. Il was proclaimed before the SEES
sion closed that Congress must be sustained
by the reelection Of its present members
Il is now clear that this increase Of pay was
one Of practical measures by which this re.
suit Is TO be brought abont.

REGISTERED VoTERs.-We learn from an
authentic source that the Commissioner Of
Registration for this county, willie Will
FoRD, Esq, has only issued between seventy
FIVE and eighty certificates. We suppose
there viii be but few more, if any, issued.
from the fact that there is no ground upon
which citizens can claim them except that
of loyalty during the war-there having
been no election in this county either in
1864 or spring Of 1865. If the word loyalty
is to have the Radical significance, few in
this county would consider it an honor to be
a registered voter.-Paiaski Citizen, Of yester-
