HYPOCRITICAL INDIGNATION.
We did not suppose that the publication of
the statement made before the Pennsylvania
Anti-slavery Society, would be approved by pro
slavery organs of the Patriot and Union ilk, nor
did we insert the article as the Patriot prints
editorial from the Journal of Commerce, as an act
of defiance to the govemment;atter the Journal
of Commerce had been forbidden the use of the
United States mails for circulating its edition.
This the Patriot and Union does every day, and
deems it one of its bravest proofs of opposition
to the government. But when the columns of
the TELEGRAPH contains only what is the current
news of the day, both by reports of its own and
such as it derives from its cotemporaries of the
proceedings of public bodies, the Patriot, for
sooth, becomes virtuously indignant that its
darling political interest in the institution of
slavery should be attacked. So far as the
Garrison statement is concerned, it contained no
more treason than that which has been fulmi
nated through the columns of the Patriot all
summer, while its own regard for slavery and
its tenacious though covert defence of those
who are in rebellion that the institution may
rule in the land, does not fit its editors or con
trollers to hold any man to account either to
humanity, to decency or the law. The differ -
ente between the Patriot and TitteasArs is, that
the Patriot upholds and defends slavery because
it gives prestige to its politics, while we abhor
it because it degrades humanity, blights bust
nem and pollutes politics.
FORT LAFAYETTE.
The political prisoners confined in Fort La
fayette, are to be removed to Fort Morgan, in
Boston Harbor. The object of the removal is
to secure the safety of the prisoners, and protect
the officers in charge from the annoyance to
which tarp were subjected by females who were
constantly applying for admission to "see the
crowd" or visit individual prisoners. On Wed
nesday last there were one hundred and nine
persons confined in Fort Lafayette, as follows
in numbers from the states named :
Maryland. .87
Virginia 18
North Carolina 12
South Carolina 4
Georgia • 1
Tennessee 2
Kentucky 16
Louisiana 6
Missouri 1
Mississippi 1
These are from slave or boarder states,
and the following are from free states :
Long Island
New York
Maine
Pennsylvania •
California
Belonging to the army
" navy
England
Total
It is understood that Marshal Kane, Mr. Bar
ron, formerly of the United States Navy, and
the prisoners now in Fort Columbus, will also
be removed to Fort Morgan, together with
Charles Barkley, who was sent from Fort La
fayette to Bedloe's Island. Fort Morgan is not
nearly so accessible from Boston as Fort Lafay
ette is from this city, and the change is in all
respects a good one.
TEE IMPORTATION OF ARMS
The following table, showing the value of the
arms brought to New York city from fbreign
countries since the first of August, warehoused,
and given our forces now in the field, will be of
interest to our readers. Most of the arms thus
imported have been sent to St. Louis for the use
of the western army under General Fremont.
A coesiderabl number have also been trans
ported to Kentucky :
Enfield rifles $160,600
•
Grins 119,600
Muskets 116,300
Swords and sabres 4,600
Revolvers, percussion aaps,etc. 6,800
$395,700
From the above it will be seen that over
$230,000 have been expended for guns and MIIB
- while only $150.000 have been expended
for the more effective rifles. It was necessary
to supply our army with thair equipments, in
some measure, from abroad, in consequence of
the inability of our factories to furnish them
feat enough. But it would seem as though the
government might have expended the whole
sum in purchasing Enfield rifles or the improved
fire arms manufactured in England, rather than
in procuring guns and muskets which are of
little use, comparatively. The additional cost
would not have been worthy of consideration.
But, doubtless, there was some good reason
why rifles were not purchased, one of the beet
of which is the great demand for such arms by
the governments of Europe, who monopolize
their manufacture.
ON TUN WATERS OF PAS LICO SOUND the rebels
have a fleet of nine vigilant and well•equiped
demnem of various sizes ; and we have testi
mony that, as to any good our boats do, "they
might &swell be on Lake Michigan or in the
Arctic regions ! " Indeed, a Virginia journal
has lately 'masted that Parana, Sound was
"cleared of federal steamers."
MORE HISTORY.
When the development of this rebellion ap
peared in the secession of South Carolina, the
announcement was boldly made, that it was an
effort to vindicate the rights of the people of
the south with regard to the spread of slavery,
the increase of its political power, and the pro
tection of its domestic influence. On the pre
tence first that these rights had been threaten
ed, the south prepared to resist aggression, and
when the leaders in the rebellion had succeeded
in fortifying their harbors and frontiers, they
openly proclaimed their purpose to destroy the
American Union, that the institution of slavery
might be increased in numerical strength and political
power. In these declairations, the advocates of
secession were in earnest. Alexander H. Ste
phen openly proclaimed the doctrine of univer
sal slavery far every description of labor, and
made the system of human bondage the basis
on which the south intended to rear its fabric
of government. These are facts which already
constitute part of the history of this rebellion—
facts incorporated tato the confederate consti
tution—facts stamped upon their legislation,
and facts which have prevented the powers of
Europe thus far from recognizing the Confed
erate States of America, so called by the rebels,
as an independent sovereign power among the
nations of the world. If the basis of govern
ment fixed by the rebels had been any other
than that of slavery, England and France would
have long since recognized 'Jeff. Davis & Co. as
legitimate rulers. It is the fear of stultification
that prevents these powers from this recogni
tion, and even this motive may not much
longer deter them from such a proceeding, if
the federal powers of this government do not
soon move in a manner to prove that they are
competent to cope with insurrection, able to
crush rebellion, and prepared at all hazards to
meet and defeat the armed traitors of the south.
Public sentiment cannot forever be restrain
ed on this subject. The loyal states, after
having almost spontaneously poured out their
wealth in men and_ treasure in money in re
sponse to the government, have a right to de
mand that a blow be struck, regardless whether
it be in the emancipation of every slave in the
south, or the conflagration of every rebel city
and village, so that the American Union is res
cued and restored, the land delivered from re
bellion, the laws once more respected, and the
federal authority again recognized.
In the face of these historical facts, it is pass
ing strange that there are those in the loyal
states who still demand that in the effort t
crush rebellion, no stroke must be struck at
slavery. When the slave power declares it to
be its purpose to break up the Union, to de
stroy the federal authority and desolate the
land, others who give the federal government a
sort of negative support, claim that those who
are risking life and fortune to restore the ma
jesty of that power must refrain from all inter
ference with slavery—must not attempt the
emancipation of a single slave, and in all par
ticulars, must respect the local and general
rights of every slave-holder, whether he is found
with arms in his hands, or is secretly abetting
the efforts of those who are openly engaged in
treason. Such a policy in this struggle cannot
be productive of success. If the hope is enter
tained that the institution of slavery is to be
saved and maintained in the social vigor and
political power it possessed before this rebellion
was organized, and at the same time the rebels
be forced to obedience and respect, then are our
armies a useless organization and burden to the
government, and all our efforts to preserve the
Union must eventually become failures. Only
one of the two can survive this struggle.—
Slavery must be rebuked—its development re
tarded and its spread prevented, if we ever hope
to secure the future peace and prosperity of the
I American Union. The institution has proven it
self an element of destruction in our government.
Its influence has introduced corruption into our
I system—its prestage has arrogated to itself a
power superior to the Constitution and laws of
the land, and the issue must sooner or later be
presented to the people, Mall the Union be re
stored—or shall slavery be maintained and perpetuated
in the land.
BANQUETING ON DIVINITIES
The N. Y. Evening Post of yesterday says that
in his curious book on Eastern Central Africa
Captain Burton relates that a certain Arab mer
chant, traveling with his caravan, captivated
the wayward fancy of a cannibal tribe through
whose dominions he was passing. He was an
immensely fat man; and, unfortunately for him
in the cannibal system of theology obesity
stands as the most unfailing mark of divinity.
These savages had eaten their last god, who
grew lean on short rations ; they were not mind
el to become atheists ; and they hailed with a
natural delight.the sight of a bran-new divini
ty. They installed Sheik /braham as their god
and king ; hunted for him ; robbed caravans to
get him a shirt for his back ; sang hymns to his
rotundity day and night. At last there came a
season of drought. The sky was brass and the
grass was whithered. The pious and hungry
cannibals naturally bethought them of their
divinity. They besought rain. He replied
that he would gladly make it rain, but he could
not. They grew angry ; he implored their pity.
They insisted ; he refused ; they said you must;
he said I can't. Then said they, with irresisti
ble logic, if you cannot make it rain, you are
not a god, but a humburg—and they ate him
up.
The ridiculous fate of poor fat Abraham seems
likely to befall a divinity which has long been
worshipped nearer home. His Majesty King
Cotton is getting into trouble. His blind wor
shippers, who have long sung pearu3 to the ro
tund bale, are losing faith. They depended on
their idol Cotton to make them rich and power
ful, to open their ports, to conquer their ene
mies, to subdue the whole world to their de
sires; and, alas! their god is impotent. Instead
of being rich, they are, on their own confession,
poor. In another column we reprint an article
from the Richmond Whig, which demonstrates
the financial ruin of the Confederates.. Instead
of starving their enemies they are themselves
on short rations. Their sky is brass, - their
stomachs are empty, and their god Cotton is
impotent.
Yet a little while, and the southern cotton
worshippers will any to their , idol, as the canni
bals said to yon cinn0t.4404.4 rain,
you are iota god, but a humhug.

European governments, through their organs,
express the wonder with which they contem
plate the sudden military development and or
ganization of the American people. History
presents no parallel to these movements, nor is
there anything equal to our volunteer force in
any of the governments of Europe, however
proud and powerful they are in their military
organization. While the governments of Eu
rope are thus awe stricken with the wonderful
enthusiasm and timmitnity of the people of the
United States, on the subject of defending their
national honor and maintaining their national
peace, out own government cannot fail to have
discovered that the people of the loyal states
are in earnest in their determination to put
down this rebellion. This is the case at least
with the people of Pennsylvania, who have now
in the field and ready to march a hundred and
on6,thousand men ! If this is not earnest action,
we are unable to comprehend earnestness. If
the government cannot see in this demonstra
tion, the will and desire and ability of the loyal
people to suppress rebellion, nothing that the
people themselves can do will convince the an_
thorities that treason must be crushed with
blows instead of compromises with concessions.
All that we now want is action on the part of
the government--a movement such as will en
courage the army to prepare for fight, and such
a fight, too, as will decide in a single battle,
the issue at stake.
GENERAL LINE, of 'Kansas, is not a doctor of
laws, but, if he had been, he could not have de
fined with, more exactness than he did, in a late
stump speech at Leavenworth, what the duty is
of military officers under existing laws, execu
tive instructions, and the resolutions of, Con
gress : "We march to crush out treason an i let
slavery take care of 'gulf." The nation has not
yet determined upon a general emancipation,
as a means of quelling the rebellion, but it has
determined that the army shall not turn slave
catcher for the benefit of traitors. If the slaves
of such escape into our lines, they are not to be.
given up, and if the progress of our armies
abolishes slavery, that is a consequence which
traitors have brought • down upon their own
heads.
Tam News MOM emosAix) 'roamer is of a
most favorable and cheering character. The
mining prospects are very promising, and the
country is rich in mineral products. The har
vest this year is abundant, and provisions of all
kinds are much cheaper than they were last
fall. Nor is the country at all, affected by the
hard times elsewhere, resulting from the rebel
lion. The mines are the main sources of wealth,
and as long as the mining is profitable other
interests are in favorable condition. There are
no fears of an invasion from any of the rebel•
lious states, and thus far but one regiment has
been raised for the protection of the territory!
The Prospects of a Battle in Ken
tucky.
A correspondent of the Louisville Journal,
writing from the Union camp at Nolin, under
date of October 24, says :
"You may expect to hear of hot work out
here shortly. I believe a serious figlatwilltake
place very soon. • This division is beginning to
feel its strength, and to desire to use it. The
distance between us and the rebels will be very
materially shortened in a day or two,
and if
Buckner's men are as keen for a fight asl think
they are, he cannot help but fight.
A "Advices received last night represent the
rebels as fortifying Bowling Green by every
means in their power. In addition to the
strong works on the hills east of the town,
which they began some time ago, they are now
putting a trench entirely across the bend of the
river-bed of the place, and throwing up works
and planting heavy guns behind it. How much
this strengthens the place will be seen at a
glance by those familiar with its topography.—
The dam will prevent the passage of troops, be
low the town, the trench protects the front, and
the hill to the east defends that quarter.—
When they commenced fortifying the hill it
was rather a pow/ling matter to see what they
could mean. Fortifications in that direction
did not appear likely to do much good. It was
a shrewd thing of them to begin their work oft
there, so that their whole design should not ap
pear until they were ready to complete it. The
bend which they are ditching forms a complete
horse-shoe, and they are cutting a trench direct
ly across its mouth. The bend is the same that
the railroad enters before crossing the river.—
]he river can be crossed above the town but
there the batteries on the eastern hill make up
for the loss of the river."
THE UNION ARMY ENCAMPED NEAR THE BlRTH
macs or Pssainssrr Ltscomf.—A correspondent
of the CinCLnnnti Gazette, writing from Nolin,
Kentucky, under date of October 24, says :
It is a somewhat singular fact that "Lincoln's
invading army" in Kentucky is now encompecl
within few miles of Lincoln's birthplace.
President Lincoln was born near the Rolling
Fork of Salt River, and but a short distance
from the village of ilodgesville. His old home
was originally in Hardin county, (in which the
present "Camp Nevin" is situated,) but the
county has since been divided, and the portion
which contains the old homestead of the Presi
dent now constitutes the new county of Larne.
l'he place where the now faincrus catsin boy was
born is still pointed out by the inhabitants, and
there are several tnen here who remember "lit
tle Abe Lincoln" as an old-time playfellow.
Differing widely as they do, and some of them
being ardent secessionists, it is worthy of n. to
that they all profess unbounded confidence in
the man. "He was a poor boy," they say,
• 'but a mighty clever, whole-sou Led little fellow
whom you could trust with anything." Mr.
Lincoln personally they have full faith in, but
they dislike the men he's got around him in his
Cabinet."
• " Singularly enough, while the present Presi
dent was born in this county, the late one prac
ticed law here. With that shrewd eye for the
main chance for which Mr. Buchanan has al
ways been distinguished, he once resolved to
enter upon the mysteries of the "land pi actice"
in the then new country of Western Kentucky.
Combining attention to other people's claims
with speculations on his own account, the Old
Functionary thought to make a good thing of
it, but he happened to be beaten in two or
three cases by parties for whose abilities he had
conceived a profound contempt, based upon
their rough exteriors, and the embryo President
speedily migrated Eastward again,,
in in grand disgust, that "every horse-thief and
jail-bird in the Western country knew more
about land-law than he did."
