at the office of the. Secretary of State yester
day, tendering troops to Governor Johnson.
One dispatch tendered him a, regiment from
.the State of New York already organized ; and
another, a brigade to be formed of troops from
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Rhode Island. We
trust that our worthy Governor will soon have
the twenty-Ave thousand troops which, it is
said, he is authorised to raise for the redemp
tion of East Tennessee."
[we hare no objection to Andy Johnson
getting that " brigade "—but we should like to
know who , offered it.. Generous and loyal
soul, his name should not be kept secret. It's
a-big thing—and if he succeeds he'll be a big
man—worthy of the confidence of Old Abe, and
a fat contract besides.]
New York Polities
New York politics have taken so interesting
a turn.recently that we can do no better service
to the Cause of the Constitution, the Union and
Itenocracy than by extracting liberally from
,the political proceedings in that great State,

.an !dile-and grin Democratic statesman. The
— head Leaguer's Convention at Utica, coin
. posed principally of the ultra Abolition element,

of An State,. and they have oheerfully and

in the r fitee'of the enemies of the Republic.—

A TRICK OF THE ENEMY.
DASTARDLY ATTEMPT OF THE ABOLI
TION ENEMIES OF CONSTITUTIONAL
GOVERNMENT TO ENTRAP THE DE
MOCRACY, AND AID THEIR OWN INFA
MOUS AND. SINKING CAUSE.
We received, yesterday, in an envelope post
marked Philadelphia, June 1, a cireular,ll4
ing down a plan for a secret armed organize:
Lion of the Democratic party of the State,
which we seize the earliest opportunity to pub
lish and denounce as a trick of the enemy to
injure our cause. Democrats of Pennsylvania,
beware 1 You need no secret organisatien to
maintain a righteous cause. All• you want is
wisdom, patriotism, unity and courage to carry
you through these perilous times triumphantly.
Leave secret organizations to those whose un
holy cause tau be sustained by no other means
—to the enemies of the Constitution and the
Union—to the traitors who have rallied around
the present imbecile, corrupt and arbitrary
administration for the purpose of subverting'
the Government and establishing a despotism
in its stead. Secret organizations are hateful
in a republic, unworthy the character of 'a free
people, unworthy a. great and powerful organ
isation like the Democracy, built, as it is, upon
the solid foundations of the Constitution, and
battling for Union, Liberty and Law. Let
slaves resort to it—let those who would be
bondmen and render unquestioning support to
a despot, hand together in secret societies—but
for us, whatever we do, let us do it, openly,
boldly, courageously in the face of day, with
the eye of God and man alike upon us.
For ourselves we scout all. sect et political
organizations, and especially secret armed po
litical associations. As Democrats, standing
upon principles as eternal as truth itself—
principles which have triumphed in times
past, and which will triumph again, no matter
what force or ageneY is brought to bear against
them—we can well afford to leave to traitors
end plotters the unlawful sehemee that require
darkness as a mant le ati— i eat s and Olt -words
as a protection. Coned:AM of the rectitude of
our intention, and depending for victory upon
Ms justice of our cause alone, our path shall
be in the.sunlight, and whatever blow we strike
against tyranny, whether it be in the strife of
the ballot or the strife of the sword, shall be
struck: openly and manfully in the full con.
seiOupnefig that we are in the hue of right and
duty. . .
Therefore we declare that We shall lave
neither part nor lot , in any secret : political as
sociation, either armed or unarmed-,-and,
therefore, believing this to be •the general sen- -
timent of the Democratic party, We dentiUnoe
the following circular as an invention of our
political enemies, Who are , also the enemies of
the Constitution, of the Union,.and of Liberty:
citcuLAß
We are in the midst of one of the most des
perate and cruel despetiimS that ever disgraced
the civilized world. The worst form is about
to be developed in the enforeenient of the
“Conscription Lew," by which men are to be
torn from their families and homeb, and forced
to fight against their will, against the Consti
tution and against he voice. of a majority of
the people, in order that the present tyrants
in power may be sustained in their usurpa
tions.
So completely have the people been lulled
into false security, and become enslaved under
the delusive impression that the present war
was waged to re.establish the Union, that now,
when they discovered their error, and found
that the war is waged against the Constitu
tion, instead of in its support, they find too
late that' their ability to resist the usurpations
in - the constitutional mode is gone; and that
nothing is left them but to, organize for an
armed resistance or tamely to submit to t heir
own and children's enslavement. Notwith
standing we have. the power in the northern
States, successfully to resist Lincoln with
force, if we could but organize for the pur
pose, yet so, complete has his system of tyran
ny become, and so extensive with armies of
spies, that even open organization has become
impossible.
Nothing,then,is left but secret organization,
in order that we may effectually resist the en
forcement of the, conscription law, as illegal
and unconstitutional, and all other usurpa
tions of power, by the administration at Wash
ington. We have ever been opposed to secret
societies in this country for any purpose, be
cause under our Constitution and laws we could
accomplish every proper and honorable end
more effectually by open than by secret means.
But now, our legal and constitutional rights
are so completely taken from us, that to secure
the beam* of them we are compelled to elude
the persecutions of tyrants in power, by con
cealed movements entirely.
Already a secret and uniform organization
has been formed in many parts of the country
by men determined to resist Federal usurpa
tions, or die in the rflert,
To make• this organization more extensive,
effective and rapid than it otherwise would
have been, under its original conception, we
have been appointed a committee to make
more public its plan, with its details, and to
urge freemen everywhere to hasten to join
themselves to it, as will be observed the great
Principles involved in the plan are, secrecy,
safety and, yet, unlimited organization.
In the first place, in each State, county and
neighborhood, let some one or more persons
begin the work, by forming bodies of teu men,
to be called "Deeemvirates."; This is to be
done as follows : Let A. begin by initiating
some one, say 8., in whom he has full eon&
dence to join with him. A pledge on oath of
secrecy and fidelity is required. Again, A.
calls upon C.. and 1). In the same way, will
he has secured a "Decemvirate," or ten in
number.
It must be remembered that by ; the rules of the
organisation he shall not stake known the names
of those composing his company or " Deceravi
rates," not even to the different members thereof
Thus, while B.; C. and D. wiU know that A.
is their chief or captain, yet.neither will know
that the other belongs to the company. In
this way if a traitor should find his way into
one of our." Decemvirates," he can only betray
his captain or head,,and therefore, it becomes
important that. all persons forming Decem
virates, should he catronely cautious to get
none but such as can be fully trusted, because
Ie places himself in the power of each of his
MOIL
W e will euppoce, then, that the organization
of one Decemvirate has been completed or
command,
Immediately thereupon, each one of that
company is constituted a Captain or head, to
organize other eputpanies in the same way.—
Thus R has no sooner becorite qualifiOd as a
member of A's. Deeemvirate than he should be
gin to organize another, of which he is the head
or Captain ; and so on, until every citizen of
the land opposed to Lincoln becomes a soldier,
ready to resist by armed farce his tyikanical
usurpations, and those of his hired minions.
No sooner shall uny one become a member
of a Decemvirate, titan he.shal/ at •once - proceed
secretly to prepare himself for opea resistance,
when called upon by his Capkain, jib Shall
provide himself with the beet arms he - can ob
•t
telt', and keep them in perfect order
_and out
When the hour (or open, and finned
.zegietaneo solve; A;'for exiirapha, witt notify
Lie Datintriratemit, C, D, &. ; and`theytit tarn
will notify those whom they have
so on ad infinitum.
In order. to secure perfect.airetvaild that
this movement may not be retarded, it is raw
commended, but not required, by the mar&
ration; thatmll persons connected therewith
should take the oath of allegiance whenever
m aid upon: to do so by the Tederal 'Govern
ment/ No Crime or moral turpitude attaches
to the violation of an oath taken under dares.,
especially when the duress reqtdres us ts take
a wicked oath, as it certainly would be to swear
to support Lincoln in the violation. of his own
solemn, just and legal oath to support the
Constitution and laws of the United Staten.
It is also recommended that our friends shall
not fear detection. The chief merit of this
plan is that knowledge of its existence by the
Government can in no wise defeat its accom
plishment.
Avoid oily, too frequent eonstiltations either
in public or private. In initiating members
of the Decemvirates," do so where suspicion
will be least excited—in the streets, highways,
open fields or woods. Keep no record , what
ever of names or proceedings except engraven
on the memory. The names of ten men can
easily be remembered , ileare , thie eircular
re
printedt or copied and freely circulated among
sympathizing friends.
Friends every where, organize speedily !
The heel of the tyrant is upon you! Don't
hesitate or delay to join a Deeemvirate ! If
you need information, ask some well tried
friend hi whom you have confidence, and who
has confidence in you. Confer among friends
upon the subject; but you can never be too cau
tious in committing yourself except to your Captain
and to the ten men you may subsequently involve.
One efficient man in the neighborhood can put
the system in successful operation ; and thus
in a very. tow days, the whole country may be
thoroughly organized and ready for action.
[On the back of the circular was written in
pencil, ."Thia is our only hope," without sig
nature.]
NEWS OF THE DAY.
BY TELEGRAPH.
FIGHT AT PORT HUDSON.
Nsw Tonic, June 2.—The steamer Creole
brings dates from New Orleans to the 29th.—
The Era of that date has a dispatch from Pork
Hudson Plains of the 22d, which; states that
oft the day before Gen Augur ; (of tien, BankS'
army,) with his whole diviner, had a n i ne
hours' fight with the rebels in the rear of Port
Hudson, ott the Bayou Sara road, whipping
them thoroughly and killing and wounding a
great number, who were left upon the field.—
It is further represented that we took /00
prisoners, that the enemy were ,driven , three
miles, that Gen. Augur slept upon the field of
battle, and that at midnight the rebel General
Gardner sent in.a flag of truce asking permis—,
sion to bury his dead. We, don't believe the
story for two reason—let, it
,is stated that after
this severe fight of a whole divisiou' l'or nine'
honrs, our loss was only twelie killed and 66
wounded,and 2d, because the Bra has an,
official dispatch from Gen. Augur dated near
Pcirt Hudson, May 23, (two days after the al
leged bettle,),,in which not wword is said about,
it. We do not publish Gea. Augur's dispatch,
because it relates entirely to operations of Gen.
Grant's army which we recorded several days
since.
VICKSBURG ROW REPORTED TAKER-DOUBTFUL
New Yoax. May 2.—The Herald has the fol
lowing special from Washington : Intelligence
has been received through rebel channels that
Vicksburg has fallen. A verification by our
own advises is awaited. [There is no reliance
to be placed in this. It is safe to say it is a
fabrication.]
MOBILE - ATT MIXED -DOI4BTAL.
New 'Orleans advices state that rumors had
reached there from Pascagoula on the the 25th
that Mobile had been attacked. One rebel
stated that a telegram had been received at
Pascagoula from Mobile that Port Morgan, had
gone under. 'Some of the rebels said to our
officers,, there ids glorious news for you but
we dare not4ell what it is." [Such stuff should
not be-telegraphed.]
DESTRUCTION DE A BLOCKADE RUNNER
:The steamer Tennessee, from off Galveston
on the '22d ult., reporia the destruction, by the
guntoat °wane, of the notorious blockade
runner, West Honda. Health of the fleet good.

river, on his route to Shreveport.
OATH OP ALLEGIANCE
The New Orleans Era prints a list of 510
rebel prisoners who had taken the oath of al
legiance.
FRON MOBILE-ON GOOD AOTTIORITY
The New Orleans Era extra, of the 24th ult.,
has the following No learn on good author
ity that the military commander at Mobile
calls on the people to rally en masse, armed, for
the defense of that city. This, would indicate
Mobile threatened by federal force. The reb
els are said to be withdrawing from the city.
[lt is more likely that the troops being sent
to the aid of Johnson, the citizens are called
upon to take their place in defense of the
city.—Reporter.]
NO SPIRITUALISM AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
Wasnmacki, June 2.—The statements ox.
tensively published' relative to alleged spirit
ual meetings at the White House are entirely
untrue, and would be unworthy denial, were
it not that some - very good men and women
were being distrirbed . by them. [This impor:,
taut intelligence will be a great relief to the
country.]
FROM -VICKSBURQ.
CurcAu°, June 2.—A special dispatch froia
Memphis, dated lot Witt, says the steamer
Luminary arrived on Saturday night with news
to the 28th.. The gunboat Cincinnati was
sunk, by rebel batteries at Vicksburg
. on tte
26th, with a reported loss of 20 killed and
wounded. Several of our men captured . ly
the rebels were paroled on account of scarcity
of food.
1 0 110 M MEXICO
NEw Yonx, Jane 2.—A French transport,
front Vera. Ortiz 'on 19th nit., arrived here this
afternoon. Her captain doubts the import of
the capture of Puebla., as dates frqm that
vicinity to the 16th, which were reecived at
Vera Cruz before he left, represented the Mexi
cans as then holding half of Puebla, and so
strongly fortified that it would t a k e g long
time to capture them.

Ilarksdales Mississippi brigade has,left the vi
cinity of Fredericksburg. From what can 'be
learned reliably from the front there seems to
be• no doubt that the confederates are shifting
their position ; and indications are that they
moved a considerable force up the river in the
