Abolitionism in the State of Indiana has breathed its last; it ha 3 given up the ghost and is buried so deep that no convulsion in nature or politics can give it. a resurrec tion. Our readers will remember that the De mocracy of Indiana were seriously divided in the last Presidential campaign; the fight between them was, like all civil wars, hit ter and unrelenting. The feud still exists, so that the politics of the .State are now divided by those who follow Jesse D. Bright, on the one side, and the followers of the lamented Douglas on the other. Ab olitionism being entirely annihilated. The Abolitionists of Indiana, seeing the split existing among the Democrats, issued a call for a Union Convention, to which all were invited. This assemblage came off on Wednesday last, and its proceedings have been published. The principal -speeches were made by Democrats, and Democrats dictated the platform which was finally adopted. Prior, however, to the assembling of the convention, the Democrats met in counsel, ami resolved upon having a distinct understanding as to the terms of the proposed coalition. — They, therefore, agreed upon the follow ing resolution, as a basis of Union : “The union of all good citizens, with out distinction of party, to maintain the Constitution of the United Mates as it camefrom the hands of its founders, with all i s guarantees and safeguards ror the protection of the rights of all the people and all the States,'' Tins resolution irom the Democratic caucus was referred to the committee sub requently appointed by the Convent ion.— Now observe the report of the Committee, which was adopted, we are informed, amid intense enthusiasm. The first resolution is as follows: Resolved, That the present civil warwas toreed upon the country by the disunionists in the Southern States, who are now iu re bellion against the Constitutional Govern ment; that in the present national emer gency, we, the people of Indiana, in Cnn venuon assembled, forgetting all former political differences, and recollecting only our duty to the whole country, do pledge ourselves to aid with men and niouev the - vigorous prosecution of the present 'war which is uot being waged upon the part of ourUovernment for ihepu rposc of conquest, subjugation, or the ooerthrowinq, or the interfering with, the rights or established institutions of any States, but to suppress and, put down a wicked and causeless rebel lion* defend and maintain the supremacy of the (constitution aiul to preserve the Union asestablishedby our patriotfathers, toith ail the dignity , equality and right's of the several Statesunimpaircd: and when these objects are fully accomplished , and not before, we believe theicarouaht to erase: - and we invite ail who coincide in these sen timenmo unite with us iti support of the ticket this day nominated. The reader will perceive that this reso lution is taken principally from that offer •d in Congress by Mr. Crittenden at the beginning of the rebellion ; and which passed that body then with but two dissent ing voices. The reader will also remem ber that this same resolution was voted - down, this session, by the Abolitionists in Congress; they proclaiming, by their votes, that the war is not for the preser vation of the Constitution and the Union, hat for the .violation of the one and the destruction of the other., Republicanism in Indiana must be of a very different stripe to that which exists in more North ern latitudes, or it could never lie satisfied with Buch patriotic resolutions ns we have quoted. There is not a word in them that any Democrat can object to; for ourselves we could rest upon them and abandon all partisan considerations, as long, at least, as the rebellion lasted. In Indiana, no matter which party succeeds in her coming election, no Abolitionist will be in her next delegation in the next Congress. That pestilent heresy is dead in that State at least, which we take as being an indica tion of its decaying condition throughout the country. If Abolitionists in Pennsylvania would imitate the example of their brethren in Indiana we need have no parties amongst ui. Upon tho platform we have quoted, We could stand united. We offered some thing similar to our opponents here in this county last fall; we advocated a Union ticket, but how did Abolitionism respond? It responded by not only nominating a j partisan ticket but by charging some of our candidates with entertaining sympathy for the rebels. Some of onr candidates thus charged had contributed more to aid the government iu prosecuting hostilities than all of their slanderers combined; but the interests of Abolitionism in Allegheny county required that our patriots should be slandered lest- they might be successful.— Since then this spirit of intolerance has been increasing. To be a patriot now, in the estimation of Abolitionism, is not to be like the people of the State of In diana, in favor of the Union and the Con stitution, but opposed to them. Instead of being opposed to “conquest and sub jugation,” we are expected to favor them ; inatead of being for the maintaincnce of “ the rights of the several States,” we are invited to oppose them, and favor a Union, not the one “ established by our fathers,” batons that will suit the purposes of those who ate laboring to subvert the old one. The champions of the Constitution in the comparatively young State of Indiana are of a superior cast to some we have here in one of the original thirteen, which took a leading part in the formation of both our Constitution and Union. But, unless the signs of the times are deceptive, our old commonwealth is about to return to her ancient principles, and again become the Keystone of the old Federal Union. gSF*In the affairs of lore, the strong submit to the weak, weakness being here autre powerful than strength; The cooing tattles of Venae are more formidable than the neighing steeds of Mars. EMANCIPATION, The Gazette , according to its inevitable habit, *|notes from our article of Saturday, as the Devii is suul to quote Scripture— to meet his own purpose. We do not think it necessary to do any thing to prove that we.arc sincerely in favor of the Con stitution and the Union. But, the people will require the Gazette to show, by good witnesses, before long, why it shall riot be convicted of conspiracy with Greeley Ar Co., to overthrow both the Union and'the Constitution. Will the Gazette prim this paragraph from our article, entire: n °l care a pin's fee what be comes of slavery, so that the loyal pnr tions of the Union shall not have to bear the burden of its extinction. We don't wantto buy slaves and coloni/.e them—our taxes will be heavy enough without adopt ing that mad proposition'. We do not wish to buy them and bring them, nor eucour age them to eome North to displace white laborers, who, after the war, will lie nu merous enough, ami who, we fear, with all the rest of the people, will see gloomv times. But if the States shall see legally, under the Constitution, to abolish slavery gradually, so that no convulsions, no distress, no violence will ensue, we hope Heaven will prosper the movement. 11 any .'State, following the prudent exam ple of Pennsylvania, shall, qnietlv and in good order, gradually tree her" slaves, surely we should be gratified to see a proper thing done in p. proper wav." i he (tfi-ctlc is desired to notice that our plan ot dealing with slavery does not in volve the destruction of the Constitution : it does not propose further to burden the soon to he over taxed people ~f the coun try for the sounding and insane object of flooding the North with a worthless negro population: it does not !...-,tc to entail "m -poverishment of the white laborer* of the North by bringing the negroes Imre to compete with them. .Wither do,-s It oiler any obstacle to the eniauciputinu ofstaves when done in the mode ami by the per sons who alone can tu-romplMi t|„' oha-el safely ami legally and roiistimtionully.

I hi* Boston Gazette, published i n ( ,| ( i Massachusetts, and (luted .Inly r.'th, iris, contains the following advertisment: “.Tust imported from Africa, and to he sold on board the brig .lonnoy, W’m. Elle ry commander, now lying at Non- Boston a number of NEGRO BOVS and Glitl,s’ from twelve to fourteen years of age. In quire of said Ellery on' board s.-ud' brig where constant attendance is given. " ’ ‘ ‘ Noti:.—The above slaves have all had the small pox. Treasurer’s notes and Aetc England rum will be taken as pat/.'’ There is a good text for a long sermon. But the subject, requires a f e 7v words. Massachusetts, now so piously hostile to slavery, was at this date, and for half a century later, the great slave trader of the Western Hemisphere. Her ships, her men, her money and her enterprise took to that trade as naturally as a duck takes to the water. There were thousands of ;her people who engaged in "the sum of all villainies,’ as John Wesley denomi nated the slave trade, but not the owner ship of slaves. Massachusetts money and Massachusetts ships invaded the barra coons and the coasts of African mainland, and thousands of “boys and girls from twelve to fourteen years of age’" were brought to Mew England for use there, or for isle to the&thereofth* present rebel* in the South. / *' learn with regret the removal b Secretary Chase, of Thomas Snowden, In spector of {toilers ol this city. Mr. Snow den was selected for that position for his signal qualifications and without regard to his political antecedents, which certainly were not. of the Democratic school, but as it was feared he might become one, decap itation became necessary. No charge was, or could be peterred against him, as he is a gentleman ofgreatamenityofmanner and acknowledged scientific attainments. HAWTHORNE ON THE.

The battle lasted all < ay, wtth a heavy loss on both sides. Ihe Charleston .Ven;n v said that the battle would be renewed the next day, and expressed apprehensions for the safety of the city, in consequence of the great ex haustion of the Southern and the loss oi many officers. Generals h.vans and Pemberton compli mented the troops for their bravery in stand ing under the shells of our gunboats and Ihefight took place within four miles of Charleston, and from .the tone of an edito rial in the Mercury, I should think that the rebels have been cut off from a retreat by our gunboats. If this be so. Charles ton must soon fall. The Dispatch says it can be no longer denied that Jackson has been heavilvrein foreed lately,and that the Federal columns must either combine or fallback across the Potomac. Memphis, June 31 . —Mobile news of the I'.th say nothing of the capture of Fort Morgan. 1 here is no mention of an attack being made, although some naval arrange ments progress at New Orleans considered to be aiming at that point.
