SUSTAINING- THE GOVEENMENT- An Administration, conscious of its own integrity and ability, instead of shrinking from public investigation, would gladly invite tbs largest liberty in the discussion of its proceedings. Bat the difficulty with the present powers in Washington, and their loading supporters throughout the country, is that they know their schemes and conduct will not stand theteat of pub lio investigation, This is why they la bored so hanl and incessantly to choke off public discussion Of their perform ances, by, denouncing it as hostile to the Government. itself. The intelligent free meu-of this country would be in.aiament rbio condition, indeed, were they reduced to the condition of mutes— to stand by and see their country prostrate, and bleed ing at every pore, while those in power, instead of realizing onr calamities, are en gaged in disseminating falsehoods, in tended to impose’■ upon and topi them. Let ns recall an example:of this baseness. Immediatelyafter the late battle of Get- tysburg, the President, the Secretary of SiafeJ the Secretary of War, add General Huileck, all made speeches to some serf euaders who visited them ; and from their remarks, the country was led to believe that Lee’s rebel army was cot only overwhelmingly defeated, but absolutely Crashed and scattered beyond hope of re organisation. The speakers glorified themselves, especially the two latter, upon the glorious result, and were answered by shouts of. congratulations from tbe boozy and reeling ser winders in the street. Fol lowing this demonstration in Washington, dame dispatches through the War office, informing the nation that onr forces had captured one hundred and twenty pieces of artillery from the' enemy, had tilled and taken prisoners, one-haif of Lee’s army at least, and that the balance Wtie seeking safety in the mountains . wnere they uniat starve in a few days or d awl down and give themselves up aB prisoners. These, set of fabrications were furnuaea through the War Office, from day to day, until finally the Secretary of War annonneed, over hie proper name, that Lee's disaster was an entire ront, the iemnaut of his army being dispersed nud aoaitered. These were simply to ma ny luiaehooda, and to call them by any oth. eruame would be a perversion of language. Must thepbOpla close their eyes to anch conduct as ,this, by one n o mightier than tbe weakest of them''; ‘ or is the Secretary of Wnr “ hedged in by that diviniLy ” which enables Mocarchs to put their heels upon the necks of tbeir people? Are the .citizous to permit srch conduct to pass unnoticed, blinded and be sotted partisan'dupe confounds its con demnation with opposition to the gov ernment ? Bat it appears that the blundering con -duct of iheAdaiinistration is so great that eren the Abolition' papers, which, some timu since, insisted upon passivo obedi ence and silence in regard to its proceed ings, ara now as much dissatisfied as the vilest Copperhead.

The Btate lurnished nothing, except the money to pay the wages of the militia mustered into the service of the State, which was gener ously advanced, and will be disbursed by banks and other corporations, under the pledge of the President to ask an appro priation by Congress to refund the money thus advanced at the opening of the next session.

It is said, however, that an Inspector of the General Government, charged with the inspection of |horses purchased here, has been arrested by order of the Secretary of War, - 10686 horses were purchased by agents of the General Government, and furnished by its contractors. None of these agents or contractors are m any way, personally or officially, connected with me, or in any sense, my friends.

Wxshiuqitos, July 31, 1803, The movement to organize a conserve five party, in opposition alike to radical republicanism-and; copperhead democra cy, is daily growing in importance. The preliminary meeting of the democratic na tional committees-soon to take place in the West, recently mentioned in this cor respondence, is only a partof the pro gramme. Another consultation is expect - ed to be held within a few days, either in Lew York or at Newport, in which it is expected that Hr. Fillmore, Washington Hunt and Thuriow Weed, will participate. The aspect of- our, domestic and' foreign affairs causes great uneasiness to the lead tngeonservative men “of all parties, and a determination is'manifested to perfect an organisation, which will be sufficiently powerful to control the conduct Of the gov ernment hereafter. The meetings allu ded simply, for deliberation, but there Are 1 abundant manifestations that prominent men of all the parties of 1660 will be brought together in tbe new organ ization about to be made.

ANIL LlffjSBTT. f C f Nchiisb XXIV, ;1 To His Excellency President of trie. United states: - - - Your Unriri.-.iyL i I: >, t L p iti hi\r r u Rm! eg ,jhe military 9P£%k l lM! ,o r,.writing . figaißßt it, is. dn offeHse ag didst the mili•" (illy, and ia to be punished by them, It seems lo follow logically enough from this, tiat the more their fedings are offended the greater mast be the punishment. And as" nobody can know how they feel hut ' thetyselms, no other than they can know how to measure the punishment. And 1 because 1 ‘ the greater the truth, the greater the libel,”-the greatest offenfb one can commit against bad men is to tell the truth about them, and thns all truth is for bidden unless it be' eulogistic, and and none are to be endured but the flatterers of the military power. All others are in danger, if tbey-Bpeak at all, of being com mitted for contempt of the military. I re joico that yon axe tot naturally a tyrant; for if you were, no Democrat could speak his mind, under such a doctrine, except at the rUk of martyrdom. I know of nothing in history more like your doctrine than that which was main tained by Charles I, of England, though his wa3 a political more than a nfilitary doctrine. His principle was that any cen sure of the king or of his measures ; any opposition to him, even in Parliament; any publications of which ho disapproved, were “.Lenses” against royalty, were “ embarrassments’ ’ of royalty, were “con tempts” of royalty, and were to be pun ished by the Hng. And, of course, the punishment was to be according to his pleasure, for no law had provided for such offenses. This is exactly your prin ciple, except that Charles did not define it ns military, as you do. You consider it as a military , and he as a royal preroga • live: but the result is the asms. You and he agree on the rule, though not on the reason of it. .And Charles I. had many to advocate his claims, and they constituted the lead ers of the Court Party ; without such a party he would have been saved from his numerous usurpations, and from the final catastrophe of his reign. They supported him in all his unconstitu tional taxes levied by royal author ity, without the consent of parlia ment. And allow me to call yonr atten-' tion to the fact that he levied those taxes by virtue of his military prerogative, as defender of the safety of the realm. He and his party said, as yon say of military arrest, that it was a necessary function of his military prerogative, and that he alone was ihe judge ot the necessity, and could levy the taxes whenever be consid ered t be occasion required it. I rejoice that you have not ventured to givesnch an extension to your prerogatives as comman der in chief of the army and navy. If ever a doctrine was condemned by the his tory c.f its author and his dynasty, that one has been. Let me refer you to John Hampdon’s caoo inthe State Trials, and to the history of the Stuarts, and ask yon to Btndy them. But I beg you to notice that this con demnation of the absolute power to levy taxes Jor military defense f involves the condeumaiion of your doctrine of military arrests. The ati aggies for the right b of property and of personal liberty, and for Ireodom from all absolute power, arc al ways found together in the history of our ancestors. All arbitrary power over prop erty will Po resisted, unless it is support ed by arbitrary power over personal liber ty. The Bocond is the necessary support of the first. Hence, wo find Charleß Ist continually imprisoning persons of all degrees, including members of parliament, for speaking against or opposing his meas* ures, just as you have done. He impris oned tbs Earls of Arundel and Bristol,and the learned Selden, and the brave advo cates of liberty, Sir John Elliott, and Hoilis and Valientine and Hobarb and Stroud and hosts of others. And the people believing that those who have suf fered for liberty, wero the surest friends of liberty, elected many of them to the next parliament. And tho people had reason to be cautions whom they trusted; for then as now, many men, such as Went worth, Littleton and Noy, deserted ike constitution , and the Country Forty and joined the Court Party. Look at the acta of Charles' government that have received what was heretofore supposed to he o final condemnation, as acts of usurpation— taxes of every kind imroaed by royal proclamation, and men imprisoned for refusing to pay them; printing presses stopped and publications anppreßsed by deorees of the star-chamber, and without any law, and authors impris oned and sentenced to infamous punish ments ; new laws made and old ones abro gated or suspended by royal orders, and men punished for questioning them ; the writ of replevin denied for the recovery of goods unlawfully siezed by the King’s orders; special coarts appointed to try persons who had committed no “ definite crime,’’ because the ordinary courts were not to be trusted with such cases ; four successive parliaments dissolved because the Country Party had the majority; mem bers of parliament questioned out of par liament and imprisoned for words and acts in parliament, and some of them dying in prison, (the dying petition of Sir John Elliot for his discharge was rejected be cause it,was not humble enough) : judges, holdihg'fheir office at the pleasure ot the. king, warned not to decide against his proclamations and arrests; men brought np on habeas corpus, and remanded with out bjul or trial, because they had been committed by the King for contempt of him in resisting his supposed military power to levy taxes ; prisoners hid away in distant prisons to>avoid the habeas cor pus ; a merchant imprisoned under this same military power for saying that the burdens in English commerce were worse than those of Turkey, and when the judge had oourage to admit him fo bail on a habeas corpus, they were censured for it, and told that it was necessary for the pres ervation of the State, that the royal power should be preserved. And notipe also that the crown lawyers give the same reasons for 1 arbitrary ar rests and resistance of the habeas corpus that von do—“lt is fit to restrain prison ers-of their-liberty that the .common weal th might not be demnified ; it is lawful to pull down a house to prevent the spread ing oi nre; it is lawful to restrain d furious pm n - This u your preventive doctrine. It is the condemned'doctrine of Charles Ist. And. the whole doctrine is really military, just as you define it, though Charles did not define it so. And, with all this, the cry was then, as now, “trust ln ., A K l ng l, . Look, sir, at the statute called the 1 tition of Right and the sub sequent acts up to and including the Rev olution of 1688, and yon will find all these things condemned by our ancestors. And jf was against such acts that the habeas corpus statute was afterwards passed, be oanse such tyrannical precedents hqd cast a shade on the common law right. And-yet, _ even in -these fearful days, there were bravefriends 0 f liberty, who were, willing to risk all for its sake The Sir ffohn-ElUot,'Stf-Franois Seymour,-Selden, Wandford, .PniUtp3, Hollis, .and others, spoke.in,behalf.of the.constitution anti liberty as brave men ought to talk' in time's of danger,—“ Magna Charla, thirty times confirmed, secures the subject from wron«- fol imprisonment, and thirty-Bix other statutes do the same, and I wonder how any man oan admit fife new gloss, tbit the ta*n'oHilP » en *A e of-royalty condem ritdfZr' tor (ktfroord bfjiistice-is car fi™ ; ~ } J - re ' King by an officer of jus vif f mimatln B an .appeal Irom him to higher pqw*a. ; And it would be ab ß urd to suppoae that onr ancestors had naked ; SS tatE A' for ayigfetrtbatTtbe Emg-conld aetnside at pleasure:”—“ Let ns not tear to make a remonstrance tor onr nghtß.

An im portant movement is being made from Vicksburg, the particulars of which are con raband. General McClellan and tbie Army. It has been frequently assorted, and is yet undenied, that the terrible battles of Gettysburg were fought under the belief that Gen. McClellan was in command, and that belief inspired the men to deeds of daring and heroism. The New Haven Register publishes a letter from a wounded officer at Gettysburg, dated the 20th July, from which the following ia an extract: .‘•I deem it proper to state here, what none will have the hardihood to deny, that on the second day of the engagement, when our men began to feel more or less despondent as to the result, itj was an nounced to the soldiers that General Mc- Clellan had been appointed Commander in Chief in place ot General Halleck, and was actually on the field, directing the movements of the army. This announce ment was received withthe wildestdemon- Btrations of enthusiasm by our troops, the shouts passing from division to division, and from corns to corps, until the air was rent with acclamations cf rejoicings along our whole line, everybody understanding from the intensity of the cheering that it meant McClellan. Vt e have sinoe heard more than one group of soldiers bitterly complaining of the fraud that was practiced upon them—declaring that the battle was won under the inspiration of McClellan’s name, and that l it was a burning shame he could not bare been there to shore with them the honor of the victory.’ ” Tho Boston Courier has a private letter from a Massachusetts otficor of high rank, which alludoß iq the same matter, as tof lows: ■ Late in llie night beiore the battle at Gettysburg, whilst on the march and the men so tired that they conld hardly get one foot before the other, a rumor was started that McClellan had been appointed again to command the army; it put new life into the men, and they foTgot their sufferings, and ss the report passed down the column, cheer after cheer went up for McClellan and victory. God grant that be may again be pnt where he belongs, at the head of tho Army of the Potomac." Uekerai. Meade's army, it is said, will be filled np by the dralted men, each ex isting regiment to be filled up to its maxi mum from this source. The commanders °f .the various regiments are to make re quisitions for the numbers required to fill their ranks, and detachments will he for warded accordingly. The drafted men will not have to complain of lying idle in camp, but will have an opportunity at once of seeing active service. FLY HILL£II, KILLS PLIES INSTANTLY without danger to anything else.
