ABRAHAM LANCOTN. I have no right to impute to Mr. Lincoln j purposes which he has no', expressed, or res i ervations which he has not made. I hvae I v . i seen a great many ingenius explanations written by his political friends, to show how ihe President did not say that be would not receive and act upon oilier propositions which he did not mention. But I think if I were to read that paper to a jury of twelve intellt gent men, who knew (be subject to which it j relates, and were to ask thein to infer from it thai Mr. Lincoln did not mean to nnke '■ j file abandonuieut of slavery one of three con- : j dil.ons on winch he is willmg to have a resto j : ration of the Union, I should provoke a very • I significant smile. As plainly as ihe English ! language can speak. he couples together "the ' restoration ol peace," " the integrity of tiie i . whole Union," and " the abandonment of I slavery," as the three things which must be j presented to him in one proposition, by the i power that now controls the Southern armies, j A proposi lion, he says, embracing these three I things, will be met by tiie executive govern | utenl id ue Untied StuU*- howl By: liberal ! | term, on those points ? Not at all ; they | i will he met by liberal tt rms on "of/tcr" sub ! stantial and collateral poinis." The lan i guage is carefully framed to exclude tf.e idea ! lliat lhere can be any unite iiteial'ly about the joint o slavery, than about the restora tion ol peace and the integrity of the Union. ; fiie one is a> much a fixed purpose with Mr. Lincoln as the two oih*rs. He knows that ' I both sections ol the country have so und r stood him, and to this day he has never ut ! ftred a word to correct U.at impression : We ate bound to believe that he docs not i wish to correct it. I Here, then, is a position which " goes j whole bat's length beyond tiie reservation to I the Supreme Court of the question what has > become of slavery in the progress of the war. j I Speakug in a paper addressed to every man on earth, who can read English and has anv ! ; concern in knowing his views, and di aling at I i the same time with the restoration of peace i : and the preservation of the integrity of the Union. Mr. Lincoln makes a positive require j uietit of the abandonment of slavery us an es j sential feature of anv proposition on which he will treat. lie did not mean to " palter in a , double sense." He meant te be understood. ! j lie had been under food. The issue is made | up between hun and the Democratic party, jou tins point. If he changes tint issue he c.nies over to us,so far as this matter is c >n | cerued. For, my friends, let it be observed tlia* the Democratic pariy, sp aking through ; General McClellan, its candidate, while it " I demands the restoration of peace, and the • I integrity of the Union has not made the con ditton of the abandonment of slavery essen | tial either to peace or Union. There can be . j no mistake about General MtClellan's poi --i , tion any more than about Mr. Lincoln's.— We ask, says General MeCk-llan, nothing but r 'ho Union. We, says Mr. Lincoln, demand with the Union the abolition of slavery I iou of the South, sujs the ne, can come *n ! jto the Union as you were before you left [- I You can come into the Union, says the other, 1 ; but you must abandon slavery before your , I proposition to return can be consider* d. [ | Nw let us inquire calmly, which of these , courses of action is likely to give peace to j this country—present and leasting peace. j For the attainment of Mr. Lincoln's object, it is but rational to suppose that absolute and Complete subjugation d the white raw is es l sential. ]t n- not within tiie limits of prnba j bdiiy that the people ol the Southern States ( will consent r.> ahohsh slavery at our dicta ; tion, mini the white r; ce there is so reduced ! that its consent will be practically uniiupor ' lait'.and will therefore cease to be necessary, f | The cotiS" queue*; w ill he that you will have j n your hands, for government, a country as j large as Europe, in which the whites will be j unwilling, if they are able,ami unable if they 1 are willing, toc-operate in Carrying on civil , j govern iu* nt. You must govern the country , ,by the sword until you can introduce a new I white population, and ev< n then y< u must constantly interfere to settle the question as , to which race is to be the predominant one. > The result inest be Mibstamally a state of war for generations, or a reduction of vast portions of our c tintry to a condition reseiti tiling that of lit f*-r countries , n W |,i c j, A!d no meetings and can hold none. I' is believed here that it is designed , to so exasperate the people as to produce an : outbreak ami justify martial law to control the election by bayonets. The people here are hushed to the verge of desparation. The draft ts going on, and the conscripts, instead of being allloWed ten Jars, ' jas is usual in other states,are hurried away at once. A meeting was held in o*e of the ; towns to petiiion Gov. Morton to all w the ; draf'ed men the usual ten days. That night ; a train of cars filled with soldiers was sent i out from the capital. In the middle of ihe night they surrounded the home and arrest- 1 ed the chairman of the meeting, a yum g man j ; by the name of wolf, and hurried him off i*> a ■ military prison. At the depot near Torre ! I Haute, I saw a crowd of men I should think j numbering two hundred, filled the depot ' i ' I Earnest, anxious, resolute h" king men as j have gathered together snice the news of the j battle of Lexington in 1170 vibrated on the air. Their story was a short one. A neigh bor of theirs, Mr. llninphieys, for the crime of being a McClellan man, had been seized at midnight by a inditaty force, sent from tiie i capita), dragged from his bed, not allowed to 1 Communicate with family or stien Is, laughed ; at when lie demanded for what he was arres- j ted, and hurried away to confinement. The i , J j alarm spread from house to huu-e, and from : place to place ; men gathered in c'usirrs, ; some tilling fifty miles between midnight and j morning, in hopes to intercept the train at another station. They were an hour too la 1 j I 0' her prominent m n had been arrested in ! | t lie same manner, with the inten t>n to strike j tsiroroti all sides Mr. Bingham, one of the ; stale committee, and editor of the Sentinel, ' was arrested in the same way. A military train is kept *>n hand for these ' arrests. They are made usually in the : I U'B't'. It ts esti'ua'ed that a thousand spies, or j de'ectives, as vy are called, in the pav ol 1 the government, arc abroad in ihe siair. j They are spies on every man's utterance : ! j they foment, controversies, induce uu n to ! | speak against the government, and charge j J them with treason, and become witnesses in | j the east I was in the town of Hartford the other day. The Democrats had erected a j splendid McClellan pule of hickory. A train j filled wiih Morion'* soldiers stopped while I j was at the depot. The McClellan pole was |in full sight, beating aloft the stars "nd j j stripes. A portion of the soldiers g>t out of | the car, cut the pole down with an nxe, tore j iup the flag,end trampled it in the tn: r e, an-) then proceeded on their journey to arrest . somebody. The flag was rescued, cut up in- ' to bits and distributed among the friends of: McClellan. . . An immense mass-meeting was held at Vincennes. Yailandigham was invited to be present, and accepted the invitation. It was openly declared that if lie. caine he would be j arres'ed. I heard an officer say that he would shoot him with his own hand if he i arose to speek. The result was that morel than ten thousanl people were present ; ; Yailandigham was not there. Had he been present, and a hair of his head been touched civil war would have been inaugurated in ten minutes.
