• It is not the right of this individual -alone ;
it is the sacred cussed liberty., the constitu

vants of the people.
Mr. Vallandighaaa maybe tried, convicted,

-human rights, constitutional liberty, have been

nrallandigham may be what his political uppo

even a bad man—he may •not have earned • the
respect due to a wise man .or .a .patriot. . Yet
the verdict of posterity will.not be ,passed up
on him by his enemies and political opponents,
but it will be pronounced by all just and can
did men, the friends of .constitutional Tights
in future times as well es at the present day.
They Will scan his acts and read his speeches
—especially will they peruse .the .following
- eloquent appeal to the Democracy of4Ohio—
published just after his arrest--and his ono
-ages will be apt to find at last the truth of •the
line quoted by him—
" Time, at last, sets aril things even !"
MILITARY PRISON, .OENCINNATI, 0.,1
May b, /863.
- To the Democracy of Ohio am here in a
military bastile for no ether offence than my
political opinions, and the.defence•of them, and
of the rights of the people, and of your consti
tutional liberties. Speeches made in the hear
ing of thousands of you in•dennnciationof the
usurpations of power, iseammtions of the Con
stitution and laws, and of military despotism,
were the sole cause of my arrest and impris
onment. lam a Democrat—for Constitution,
for law, for Union, for liberty—this ie.,my only
"crime." For no disobedience to the Constl:
tution ; for no violation of law; for no word;
sign, or, gesture of sympathy with the men
of the‘South, who are for elisunion and south
ern independence, but in obedience to their de
mand, as well as the demand of northern Abo
lition •disanionists and traitors, 1 am here in
bonds to-day; but
"Time, at last, sets all things event"
Meanwhile, _Democrats of Ohio, of the North
west, of tha_United States, be firm, be true to
-your principles to the Constitution, to the:
!Union, and alt will yet be well. As for myself, .
1 adhere .to every principle., and will. make.
good, through imprisonment and life itself,,
-every pledge and- declaration welch I have
ever made, uttered, or maintained from the
beginning. To you, to the whole people, to
Time, I Amain. apreaL Stand firm ! Falter
not an instant ! C. L. V
ALLANDIGHAR.
Zellow• Citizens—When we survey the his
tory of the past—when we trace the inevitable
results of lawless violence—the sure recoil of
popular strelmth against despotic and tyran
nical power,.and the certain victory yet to be
won by truth .end right over wrong, injustice
and oppression, we may well bide our time, !
and let the future,as it surely will, 'wield things
ro w',
But whenever that time shall arrive, or. how
ever this victory shall be won, of one thing be
assured, that whatever the verdict of posterity
shall be, as to Clement L. Vallandighaza, the
memory of those who have thus trampled upon
1.. truth of history
damnation of - centuries.
Fellow-eithens—our duty is clear ; we love
and revere the Constitution of our country.
It is the only hope and support of liberty and
free government on earth. Let us fearlessly
defend it, now andever, against the violenee
of rebels in arms, and the , more insidious, but
not lam dangerous neurpations of those who
digressed its plain provisions and trample
upon those sacred rights which it secures to
us all.

Military Proatetkors—Upon What They
Depend.
Senator Wilson ban opened our eyes. What
puzzled us for a while, is plain enough new.
It is clearly explained to us why, for some
mouths past, the officers of the army Sim
turned their attention to 'politics More tl!aa to
m ilit a ry nearly the whole °fibs*.
have, apparently,, , become abolitionized—why
camps have been turned into League Clubs—
why resolutions, .endorsing all the acts of dm
administration, and tilled with imitation thun
der, have been died at imaginary eopperheads
and traitors tin the North, with as much des
perate valor as minnie balls, grape, can
ulster, eroultd, -shot and shell were ever fired
againet the hosts of rebeldom in arms. All
this has been •nevealed by Senator Wilson in a
few words—the riddle is explained and aston
ishment ceases. No officer enho , didn't swear /by
the negro could be promoted. Merit was nothing.
'Rill, valor, even success—these were no pass
ports to Eseoutive or Senatorial favor, unless
they were aceotapswied with nndying love and
veneration for-our distinguished fellow-citizens
of African desoont. This is the secret of all
the army resolutions approbatoty of the ad
.ministration and their dusky proteges which
for some menths,past have occupied so large
a space in the Abolition papers.
We suspected all the time there wan a darkey
in the wood pileotud, sure enough, , there was.
We have always respected the -negro, in his
proper place—we have felt kindly-towards him
—more so, perhaps, than moot of -the howling
,Abolitionists who are using him to their own
advancement and his ruin. Bat. this, we
. see, will no lengerde. We mast make him our
idol—we must become idolatrous, and worship
him. Well, since it is the faildenOf the times,
we succumb. We embraoe Sambo as a being
midway between-ourselves and the angels—a
little higher than we and so near them that the
tips of their wings -touch the crown -of his
head. He is now.ouridol. But mark-what we
say. We speak in -Borrow; but prophetically.
The days of this idolare numbered. The time
is not far distant when, in consequence, as a
natural result of the unwise and pernicious,
:the insane and wicked policy which now domi
nates, this idol will be broken—broken in the
wrath of an outraged and indignant peeple—
broken and ground to .dust. That will -be the
.win' ding up, the end, the cruel and yet unit
-voidable and inevitable finale of Abolition
philanthropy.
•We have, however, under an impulse of
feeling, or an inspiration, we know not which,
digressed, and now return to Senator Wilson
and our• suliect.
At the anniversary of the Emancipation
.League in Boston, a few days ago, Wendell
who will not be satisfied until he
makes the negro a god above all• other gods,
,0 @d th 9 administration with a deficiency of
love for his dusky deity. Think of that. He
made that cruel charge against an administra
tion thathave issued two proclamations and
<carried on a bloody war for one whole year in
his sole behalf! The injustice was so great
that even Senator Wilson, who is as callous so
arhinoceros, could not stand it. Me defended
the administration against the damaging
calumny, and, in reference to the action of the
Senate,,said :
isMany_en officer /ad failed to receive promo.
v.C.VvAac wan ntnnznazeb, TO ma
jor-general have been rejected for wards or acts
against men. The reasons why men were
promoted or rejected were discussed is execu
tive session, 'but he had no right to reveal what
was done there."
We make no comments on this disgraceful
revelation from a Senator who is sworn to keep
the emote of the leer* melee. We eimply
give his Language and leave the public to azake
their own comments.
Wendell Phillips also exception to the
promotion of •Eol. Stevenson who, while at
Hilton Head, had been placed under arrest by
Gen. Hunter for using language disrespectful
to the negro. To this Senator Wilson replied:
"In regard to the promotion of that Colonel,
who was a good officer and had learned a use
ful lession, Gen. Hunter, after having thor
oughly investigated the ease, had restored the
officer, who had been imprisoned, to his com
mand, and sent in his nomination to the Senate.
As they had implicit .confidence in Gen. Hunter,
the nomination fad Le" eaafirtne€l."
Not very complimentary to Gen. gtevenson,
we should think. lie was pardoned by Gen.
Hunter for words disrespectful to the negro,
rashly spoken; and the administration, having
nitride= in Gen. Hunter, who worships the
darkey, promoted him !
What an exhilarating revelation this is !
"When this cruel war is over," if things go on
as, where will the white man be ? _either he
must sink, or the Idol be broken.
Moving Appeals.
The most eloquent appeals are now being
made to the President to return to lawful rule,
to respect the Constitution, to prohibit arbi
trary arrests, and carry on the war for the only
purpose which can make it a just war, to wit:
the restoration of the Union. These appeals
are not only idle, they are ridiculous. Abra
ham Lincoln, although nominally President,
is not so - in reality. He is incapable of con
ducting the administration by the force of his
own ability and character, and he is, therefore,
impotent. Wendell Phillips called him a "mud
tartle"—he is even worse—he is what Beecher
styled him, an "imbecile," manipulated, ruled,
dragged along, forced ahead by a batch of un
principled politicians, whose sole object is to
emancipate the negro, while another batch of
even worse men are working in their rear, rob
bing the treasury, mismanaging the war, and
crying for more blood to prove their loyalty.
Those who desire a change of measures must
appeal to Wade, Chandler, Sumner, Phillips &
Co. They are the President!
A significant Sign.
At a great Chase gathering of Leaguers at
Utica, N. Y., a few days ago, several fragments
of returned regiments were presettt, on special
invitation—among them Col. Hawkins's Zou
ayes. This regiment appeared on the ground
with a banner on which was inscribed—" .?or
President of the United Statea—GEN. GEO. B.
kI'CLELLAN."
All the Union Leagues that Chase, Seward,
•& Co. can get up will not alienate the hearts
'of the soldiers from the General they have
- tried and love.
Prentice says: "Some of the AbolitioA edi
tors think that they cannot be loyal unless they
render slavish obedience to the administration.
They should We been born tigers."

ALBANY, May 28.—The AnemiaAic State
Central Committee met here: to-day. !iYhere
was a full attendance. The resolationd, re
adopt the declaration of the last State conven
tion in regard to the support of the govern
ment to suppress the rebellion. They declare
that while peace is desired by every patriot, it
must be on a basis of the restoration of the
Union under the Constitution; that the present
administration is not any more capable of ma
king such a peace than it has shown itself to
conduct a successful war, and that any attempt
to urge it to a peace will only enable it, in
conjunctien with the Davis government to con
summate a separation of the State 4, to which the
Democrats will never submit. The resolutions
then refer to the declarations of the Loyal
League convention, which they construe as pla
cing the military above the civil power, and
accept the issue, proclaiming the determina
tion to stand by the Constitution and against
all such slavish and despotic doctrines. They
admit the jurisdiction of military law within
the lines of warlike operations, but declare
every attempt beyond those limits to prostrate
civil power by' military force treason to the
country and Constitution. They indorse the
sentiments of the Governor's letter to the Al
bany meeting.
NATIONAL CONVENTION AT HAIJIRIBBERG
Mr. Levi Bishop, chairman of the Michigan
Democratic State central committee has issued
a recommendatory call for a National Demo
cratic Convention to consult generally on the
state of the country ; to compare opinions, and if
possible to harmonize them and the Democratic
and conservative press ; to enunciate princi
ples and a policy in accordance with the Con
stitution and laws for the future guidance of
our citizens; and finally, to adopt such mea
sures as the wisdom and patriotism of the con
vention might deem proper to rescue the nation
from the fearful condition into which we are
already plunged, and from the more terrible
one into which we are rapidly hastening."
For the time July 15 is recommended; and
for the place Harrisburg, and it is finally sug
gested that each State send a number of dele
gates equal in number to its senators and rep
resentatives in Congress.
RETALIATION.
The Richmond Enquirer, hiny 26, eoye
Dr. Wm. W. Moyers, Assistant Surgeon U.
S. Army, now confined in Libby prison, is held
as a hostage for Dr. Green, of Pittsylvania,
who is in Fort Norfolk as a hostage for the in
famous traitor Dr. Rourke, whose trial is now
pending before the county court of Botetourt.
For two officers recently murdered officially
in Ohio, two officers of equal rank, now in our
hands, are to o suffer through the operation of
the lex talionis. This intelligence has been
conveyed to Col. Ludlow, the Yankee Commis
sioner, by Commissioner Ould, with' the addi
tional assurance that hereafter for all Confede
rate soldiers or citizens improperly held or
executed the law of retaliation will be rigidly
enforced.
NO DM= ARMY IN LOUISIANA.
An officer connected with Gen. Banks' army,
who has recently arrived in Washington, states
that thb enemy are pretty nearly driven out of
Louisiana. and that the State is about redeemed
from rebel sway. If Gen. Grant and Admirals
Porter and Earrogut are successful in reopen
ing the Mississippi, the State of Louisana may
soon be expected to re-enter the Union, and
be again represented in the National Legisla
ture.
GRANT AND BANKS REINFORCED

Grant has received ample reinforcements from

"New Orleans has been secured from any in

DIED.
On Thursday, the 28th inst., at his residence in this
city, General JOHN FORSTER His funeral will take
place on Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
He was born in the vicinity of Harrisburg on the 16th
of September, 1777, and was Consequently in the 86th
year of his age at the time of his death. He was eight
years of age whin the town of Harrisburg was laid out
by John Harris, Jr., and spent his entire life, with the
exception of a few years, in this town and neighbor
hood. He was educated at Princeton College when pr.
Witherspoon was President of that venerable Seat of
earning. At the breaking out of the Western Insur
rection he left Princeton without completing his colle
giate course, and returned to Harrisburg with the in
tention of joining the regiment under the command of
his brother, Col. Thomas Forster, but was prevented
from so doing. Herehe saw Washington, who stopped
over night in Harrisburg in his journey to the West,
and retained to the day of his death a distinct recollec
tion of the general appearance and manners of the Fa
ther of hie Country.
Gen. Forster studied law for a time under his guar
dian, Gen. Hanna. He married in early life, and qui•
etly domed -in various business pursuits, until' the
people of this section of the country were summoned to
Maryland to repel the British invasion, when he was
commissioned a Brigadier General, and marched at the
head of his brigade to the defense of Baltimore. As an
officer he was esteemed efficient and useful, and shared
in the councils and in the confidence of Oen. Scott, then
Commander-in-Chief.
During the absence of his brigade, in 1814, he was
elected State Senator from the district composed of the
counties of Dauphin and Lebuton, and served the pre
scribed term of four years. He entered publia life in
obedience to the wishes of his fellow-citizens. But it
was not suited to Lis tastes. He wag cashier of the Har
rbiburg Bank from 1815 to 1833. He was afterwards
Cashier of the Lewistown Bank, of the Exchange Bank
of Pittsburg, and of the Hollidaysburg Bank.
After returning to Harrisburg his attention was ex
clusively given to his private affairs, which he contin
ued to manage until a very &.w days before his death.
Although physically unable, for several years past, to
lead his wonted life of activity, his mental faculties
were unimpaired, and hisj nap:l:Lent remainednnelonded.
General Forster attained an age seldom allotted to
man, and haves the record of a stainless life as tho
richest legacy to Lis descendants. He was an urbane
gentleman, a steadfast friend, inflexible in resolution
and of scrupulous integrity. Death had no terrors for
him, and he awaited its steady approach with calm
ness and confidence.
