THE ARREST OF MR. INGER
SOLL.
The arrest of Mr. Charles Ingersoll, of
Philadelphia, fur words spoken at a Dem
ocratic meeting in that city, on Saturday
evening last, will attract more attention
than any similar proceeding since the free
• dom of speech and of the press has been
suspended. The prisoner is no small fry,
but a'prominent citizen of Pennsylvania,
the descendant of patriots anti statesmen.
If such a man be guilty of an offense
against the government, he should be
made-an example of, hut if his arrest was
caused by malice, it will have a very bad
effect upon the thousands in Philadelphia
who Partook of the sentiments . of Mr.
___ Ingersoll. We read Mr. Ingersoll's re
marks at the Democratic meeting alluded
to and with our limited scrutiny coul' per
ceive no treason in them. We now have
before us the Philadelphia Press, contain
ing what it styles "a complete and accu
rate repork of the speech complained of."
The Press, in publishing this address,
italicises the most significant portions of
it, the following bein 4 . the precise sen
tences which caused the speaker's arrest :
"T say further, fellow-citizens, that a
more corrupt Government than that which
now governs us never was in the United
States, and has been seldom. seen in any
European part of the world. it is neces
sary to go to the older regions of Asia to
find as much corrup'ion as exists in this'
Government of Mr. Lincoln."
A Mr. Edward Willard, upon whose
affidavit Mr. Ingersoll was arrested, testi
fies that he heard the speaker say that
"The despotism of the Old World ran
furnish no parallel to the corruptions of
the administration of Abraham Lincoln."
Here, then, we have the charges against
Mr. Ingersoll furnished by a most bitter
personal opponent—the editor of the
Press—and another willing witness, who
volunteers an affidavit for his arrest ; and,
without endorsing in full the exact lan•
guage used by Mr. Ingersoll, we desire
the reader to discover, if he can, where
the alleged treason to the government is
to be found. The right to discuss the
affairs of the nation is not confined ex
clusively to Abolition and Republican
•
politicians. Mr. Ingersoll, in the remarks
for which he has been arrested, merely as
serted what Republican committees have
proved. Is there any government on
earth which, in time of crushing and sat
pendous war, ever exhibited so much cor
ruption, in the same time, as the luvesti
g ding Committee, last winter, in Con
press, proved upon its own members? If
there be, it has escaped our recollection.
Look at the ease of Senator Simmons, an
old man, who had held - a - seat in that once
lofty arena, the Senate of the United
States for a quarter of a century—
the compeer of such patriots as Web
ter, Clay, Benton and • Wright—even
he, who was considered above sus
picion, could not resist the temptation of
gorging offof the very . agony o f his country.
What is more striking still, in this connec
tion, is the failure of the Senate to inves
tigate his case for fear of the investigation
being extended to quite a number of his
'• colleagues. And Mr. Ingersoll, for al
luding to these notorious facts, is arrested
on a charge of disloyalty. Who is the
more disloyal, the private citizen who has
the virtue and courage to denounce these
corruptions, or the bloated and pampered
members of Congress? The reader can
readily decide.
But granting that Mr. Ingersoll's offense
justified arrest, why is Jno. P. Hale. Wen
dell Phillips and Greeley allowed to go free'
The former of these gentlemen six months
ago, l i p the United States Senate, alluded
most positively to the increasing corrup
tions of the government, and warned his
party of its certain overthrow if they did
not resist them. They didn't resist them,
and the prospect of their overthrow has
rendered them desperate; Mr. Ingersoll's
allusion to these facts constitutes his of
fense. Gen. Wilcox, lately returned from
a Virginia prison, in a pablic speech, in
Washington, styled the war a "brainless
undertaking, conducted by contractors,"
and the multitude applaud, but no one is
arrested. This was in Washington, under
the very eye of the government. Mr.
Ingersoll's offense is not so flagrant as
that of Wilcox, yet the first is arrested,
and the other invited to dine with the
President. Wendell Phillips traverses
the country denouncing the govern
ment from fifty rostrums, and when he
Winds up his tour iu the Smith
sonian Institute, in Washington, the
Senate of the United States suspends
business upon his entrance to it, and the
Vice President descends from his seat to
give him welcome, Horace Greely ad
dresses an insolent and lying epistle to the
President, whom he charges with serious
violations of duty in his great office, but
instead of Provost Marshals beim( instruct
ed to arrest him, he receives, almost by
return mail, a polite answer to his accuse'
Cons over the proper name of Abraham
Lincoln. These extraordinary proceedings
are having their effect ; they must have an
effect. Their glaring inconsistenci es cat,
not be obscured nor hidden by the noisy
professions of loyalty and patriotism of
those who applaud and justify them. The
New York World, an able and dignified
Republican paper, alluding to these un
precedented proceedings, pointedly re
marks as follows:
"It is an extraordinary spectacle which
we have witnessed for the last year—a
free people, the freest ou earth, tenacious
of their rights, imperious for the largest
liberty, quietly submitting to the suspen
.eiou of their rights and liberties, to a re

MR. DA-WS:IAN'S SPEECH
We direct the reader's attention to an
able speech of the Hon. John I. Dawson
to a mats meeting of the Democracy of
Westmoreland county, published in this
day's paper. The General's sentiments
are those of a statesman, whose capacious
mind comprehends the terrible condition
of our distracted country.
* The Pittsburgh qa - -;ette is not
- ashamed to give as its principal reason for
forcing a draft, that it wil! prove advan
tageous to its party. We will not discuss
this, but simply remark that tin state ot
affairs can possibly arise to induce a gen
uine Abolitionist, of the Gazelle stripe ; to
enter the service. (:en. nossetiu told the
country that there was not one of the
whole set in the Western army, and we
presume the Caine is pretty nearly true ot
the balance of the army.- We are anxious
for the draft, or for any other measure
requisite to secure our country's success
and peace, not for the miserable purpose
of a petty partizan triumph. We arc tired
of the sight of the maimed returned from
war, because they aro maimed 5 we are
tired of the continued necessity of more
sacrifices of blood and treasure. To crush
rebellion, and to render further sacrifices
unnecessary, we are willing to forget party
for the balance of our existence.
The time for drafting has been ex
tended to September I.lth and volunteors
will be received for Illn niJ regiments
up
to that time and credited to the precincts
sending them. There is time enough in
Allegheny county to save ourselves from
the draft, if the inclination exists. Thirty
men front each election precinct iu the
county would be sufficient. There arc
several townships :7: thi> county which
have neither given a man or a dollar in
money to carry on the war--yet we see
some brave fellows from these districts oc
casionally vaporing about General
Ciellan and the President and demanding
a vigorous prosecution of the war, and
wondering why everybody is not hanged
who differs in opinion with them. l.et
the wards, borough; and townships orqn
pare votes and agree to send their quota
to the old regiments at. once.
WON'T BE DRAFTED.
The Gazette is never anxious to stir up
political strife. The editors are perfect
lambs according to their own account, yet
the Gazette of Wednesday styles Demo- .
crats as "Butternuts," a term applied to
rebels and traitors, told chuckles at the
idea of a draft, as it will take "Butter
nuts" and leave the Republicans al l i i nue
to do the voting, and that there. are six
Republicans to one De:nocrat in the ranks.

RELEASE OF THE EDITORS
OF THE HARRISBURG PA
TRIOT AND UNION.
The return from captivity of the editors
of the Patriot and Union, of llai•risburg.
on Soturday evening last, War: made the
occasion of a flattering ovation to those
gentlemen. An immense concourse of
citizens assembled at the depot to wel
come them and, accompanied them to the
residence of Col. McDowell', who, in obe
dience to loud and trequont calls, ad
dressed the assembly in the fldlowing
terms:
Friend, and Fellow-Citizens :—Ott the
6th day of August, at an hour's notice, we
were marched from this city, under an es
cort of gleaming bayonets to the, Railroad
Depot, and front thence taken to Washing
ton city, where we were imprisoned, with
out a hearing, for sixteen days, for what
reason I will not now state, as you all
know it. Through the intercession of
friends, and our own exertions, we se
cured a hearing last evening at a o'clock,
when, strange to say, we were confronted
by no accuser, nor was there even a charge
made against us. The pretext upon
which we were arrested was most nionrint
rily disposed of, and an honorable dis
charge given us. [Applause.]
Although mortifying as it was to leave
home as we did, and unjust as the whole
arrest was, this spontaneous welcome
more than compensates for all we endured
or theindignities we suffered. [Applause.]
This is the proudest hour of my life, It
proves that we have ..the endortiement of
ourfellow-citizens. [Cheers and applause. ]
It shows that they have a strong appreci
ation of constitutional liberty, and are op
posed to crushing out the freed 0111 of
speech or muzzling the press. Destroy
these inalienable rights, and the word lib
erty becomes a hollow mockery—a sound
ing brass and tinkling cyhabal, a rope of
sand, a delusion and a lie. [Prolonged,
applause and cheering.]
We do nat knbw how our arrest origina
ted, because no accuser had the temerity
to face us. We claim to he loyal end law
abiding citizens, and these is nothing up
on the record to prove to the contrary.
We have our own c.tpittions. and these, nil
couflicting with laws in existence, w e will
maintain at all hazards and on all uan
shirts, regardless of the denunci:oi on s o f
the cowardly traducers who stars_'
the screen. We maintairt that we hat
done our duty as loyal citizens, and the ev
idence of this is in the absence of a charge
or.eveu an accuser.
Let us be true and loyal to Our country
and our Governmeet, and we have nothing
to fear. Our imprisonment has been an
experiment, and I think, from this enthu
siastic demonstration and the general
feeling throughout the State, our ene
mies, as well as our friends, must admit
that it was a failure—that it not only has
not resulted in any practical benefit to
those who brought it about, but it has awa .
kened a feeling that will beexpressed atthe
ballot-box in October next. [Applause.]
Gentlemen, for Myself, and in behalf of
my companions, I return you my heart-felt
and sincere thanks, and bid you good night.
fApplause,and prolonged cheers for 51c.

ifei as foilows:—A n incident
while I was at Bridge
rt. which esaibitd char:u•:crlst'ca:y
our present :node of traosacting business,
that I cannot forbear relating it.
Captain Peter Simom,on is at Bridge
} tor:, with his battery of nix .splendid brass
..mns: a battery which always does effi
cicnt serwiee, and of which Indiana may
well be proud. Simonson, always in for a
fight, had been lying on his back for a
month, at Bridgeport, eluding and fretting,
and doing nothing,
line day_the Captain rode down to
7..111. .
C. micron's Fery, two or three miles below
tridgeport, and just upon the other side
of the Tenuessee he discovered a couple
of ferry-boats and some Rebel pickets
stationed there for the purpose of guard
ing thorn. Taking his glass and examin
ing matters more critically, he perceived
behind some trees a number of lents. evi
dently constituting a small encampment,
and containing from one hundred to two
hundred Rebels. Casting his eyes about,
he immediately selected a good position
I;tr one of his gulls, and putting spurs to
his horse, started back to Bridgeport, in
tending immediately to bring one of his
brass bull-dogs and give the Rebels par
ticular jessie, making no doubt that he
could easily capture the two ferry-boats,
which, of course, would be very valuable
to us.
on his way back, however, it occurred
to him that he had as well mention the
matter to Col. Harrison, of the Thirty
ninth Indiana, who was in command of
the post at Bridgeport. He did so, and
Col. Harrison referred him to Gen. John
son, of McCook's division. Gem John
son considered the thing, thought it would
work well, and said he would go up to
Battle Creek, and the next day would
bring down General McCook, who ought,
of course, to be informed on the subject,
and wonld, no doubt, be glad to see the
tiring. To Battle Creek he went; and
three days after, he and General M'Cook
came down. After thoroughly consider.
ing the matter, Gen. M'Cook decided that
it would not do to open firewithout letting
Gen. Buell know. He telegraphed to
him, accordingly, atHuntaville, and went
away. Four days after,
Gen. Buell an
swered that he thought the firing had bet
ter not take place. It was just as well,
for by that time boats, rebels and all had I
disappeared.

The following order addressed by Gov

immense sums of money to the rebel
cause: others have exerted +heir influence
to seduce the heads of families into the
rebel ranks, whose wives and children are
now starving at home; and others haveused
all the power they possessed to bring the
regular authorities into odittin and con
tempt, and to excite .a morbid sympathy

made upon these citizens, therefore, for
the benefit of their victims, is just as well

WAS II N GTON, August 21.
"For a few days vast it seemed as if the
old formulas "All quit on the Potomac—e.
on the Chickahominy—ou Jrmes River,"
were about to become applicable on the
Rapidan. "All quiet on the Rapidan";
bounds well; and, had it not been for the;
unquiet devil which inhabits Stanewall
Jaeicson, it would:have prabably come into
general use for the next month or two.—i
Jaekson, with a reprehenstble disregard;
of proprieties, has been indulging in some! of ,
his feints, or mysterious harlequin!
changes, whereby our forces have found
necessary to fall back, which they did in
"good order," and took up a"new base,"
winning of course a great bloodless victo
ry. and making the most •Mlasterly re
treat on record.''
Pope's ex•cathedra bull, concerning his
habit of seeing the backs of his enemy,
and his habit of not talking about bases of
operation, does not seem to work. It don't
seem to frighten the rebels as it properly
should do, which I can only account for
on the grounds that the ignorance of the
chivalry has prevented their reading it.
Like Phelps . ' celebrated pronunciamen(o,
it should have been sent among the Con
federates accompanied bran interpreter.
Had they been informed that it was the
"habit" of Gen. Pope to inspect that po
sition of the enemy which includes their
backbone, heels, .Le., they would un
dubted have been accommodating enough
to have given him dissolving and posterior
views of their forces.
The latest arrivals from •the Army of
Virginia bring the information that Pope
has fitllen back from ten to twenty-two
miles; that lie hasn't taken Gordonsville;
and that he has violated two of his habits
—that of always seeing the backs of the
enemy, and never taking up new lines of
operations to the rear. As a matter of
course,, strategy is at the base of the move
. .
ment,.anu is but the immediate prelude
to sonic brilliant operation against the
' enemy. Asa man, in leaping over a fence,
runs some distance to give himself ha
petits. so has done the Army of Virginia;
they have fallen back a score of miles in
order to give themselves space for a run
its their contemplated bound over the
Rapidan.
The intelligence from all quarters it
equally encouraging, it not more so. As
a stragelic inurement, we are allowing the
enemy to retake. Clarksville and threaten
Forts Donelson and Henry; by another
"plaited). — operation (the object of which
cannot yet be made public, I we nave al
lowed them to isolate Buell, surround
Morgan, break up the railroad connection
between Louisville and Nashville, and
threaten Cumberland Gap; in short, by a
sublime combination of strategic and other
plane, we are in full retreat everywhere,
with the enemy close on our heels. If it
were not developing strategical secrets, I
would hint that the object of the late move
ments is a profound one—being no less
than to retreat into Upper Canada, there
assume a permanent base of operations,
and hold it until the warm-blooded rebels
freezeout. It is simply retaliation. They
drew us into the South and baked us - we
will now reciprocate by inveigling then
into the frozen North —a Rowland for

Dr. Brownson with the President.
Dr. 0. A. Brownson, the eminent Cath
olic, and editor of Browason's Revelw
had an interesting conference with the
President on Saturday. The question of
Emancipation and Colonization were dis
cussed at length. Dr. Brownson agreed
1
with the Presid nt on the subject of Col
onization, but urged Emancipation as a
means of savin the country, and as a
step which must be taken before Coloniza
tion on a large s ale could become practi
ble.
The talk of the President was in a hope
ful strain. He said that he was not fully
persuaded that it was yet time to proclaim
F.lmaneipation, but Dr. Brownson infers
from the tenor of his remarks, that if the
next battle in Virginia results in a
decided victory for our arms, a proclam
ation emancipating the slaves of Rebels
in North Carolina, South Carolina, Flori
da, Geogia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisi
ana, Texas, and Arkansas, will be forth
with issued.
As he was leaving the room Dr. Brown
son asked the President if he could give
him any definite expression of opinion in
regard to the time when Emancipation
would be proclaimed, upon which the
President took up a newspaper and read
from it his letter to Mr. Greeley.

the Yanktans and Cut heads are moving in
concert with the Sioux. that a large force
attacked a fortified artillery post like Fort
Ridgley, an attack without precedent in
Indian history, and that of the Indians
butchering missionaries who have spent
their whole lives among them, and who in
ordinary diturbancea would possess great
influence over them, all seem to indicate
some directing intelligence superior to that
of the Indian, We are forced to the con
