He accordingly drew an advertisement, which operat ing l:ke an electric sliock, produced the desired ffci-t. The public spirit manifested itself with the rapidity of lightning, crowds instantly flock ed to the appo'tited place of the meeting, and it became evident that nothing more than a rally ing point, which the well directed zeal of an iu dividual had now suDplieJ. had been wanting to vhieli the real friends of the country nuirlit re pair iu order to combine their efforts for the re sistam e of thaf rising spirit of disaffection which had alreadv assumed such an alarmlpg aspect uch wa the eagerness of individuals for a pub he declaration of their sentiments, and ach the zeal and actil it t which marked the conduct of the worthy father of the loyal association, that n it more than ten days elapsed between the concep tion and the final execution ot this most sesou able and well digested plan.

O KyPALITV W'TH THE white sa Tiir rentuSATiox o em ami PATIO.X On the 13th day ot September. I92, s delega tiou of clergyman from Chicago had au inter view with Mr Lincoln to impress upon him the necessity of treeing 'he slaves, and" to satisfy him that it was the will of God that he should issue an emancipation proclamation In the course ot that interview Lincoln, as the del , cgation report, said: "What good would a proclamation ot emauci pation from me do, especially as we are now sit uated? I do not want to issue a document that the whole world will see must necessarily be in operative, like the Pope's bull against the comet Would my word free the slaves, when 1 cannot even enforce the C institution in the rebel States? Is there a single court, or magistrate, or indi vidual that will be influenced by it there? And what reason is there to think it would have a greater effect upon the slaves than the late law of Congress, which I approved, aud which offers protection and freedom to the ßlaves of rebel masters who come within our lines? Yet lean not learn that that law has caused a single slave to come over to us "And suppose they could be induced, by a proc- j iamationof freedom from me, to throw themselves upon u. what shall we do with them? How can we feed and care tor such a multitude? General Butler wiote me, a few days since, that he was i-uiug more rations to the slaves who have rushed to him than to all the white troops under hi- command They eat, and that is all ; though, it is true, General Butler is feeding the w hites also by the thou-uud. for it nearly amounts i a fa mine "But I am not so sure we could do much with the blacks. If we were to arm them. I fear that in a few week the aims would be in the hand of the rebels; and indeed, thus far we have not had arms enough to equip our white troops." This argument of the Piesident was regarded as unanswerable, and although, many attempts have been made by him and his friends to refute the correctness of his conclusions and reasoning, it remains unanswered. The Republican press had uot ceased applauding the wisdom and patri otism of Mr. Lincoln, and denouncing the im proper and impertinent intermedling of the cler gy in matters of State, when the whole country was amtze i by the announcement that Mr Lin coln had issued an emancipation proclamation This proclamation was issued on the 2"2d of Sep tember, 1 SGJ. and contains the following provi sion: "On the first of .lanuai v iu the year ot our Lord one thousand eight hundred ami sixty three, all persons as slaves within any State or any designated part of a State, the people where of shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be thenceforward and forever free, and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authori ty thereof, will recognize and maintain the Iree dorn of such persons, and will do no act or acts to repiess such persons, or any of them, ir BSV effoits they may make lot their actual freedom In pursuance with this notice. Mr. Lincoln, on the first day of .January, i863a issue! his proc la matiou freeing the slaves of loyal men as well a rebels, and coupled with it s plan to reconstruct the rebellious States and restore them to the Union. This plan provides that all persons who have been engaged in the rebelliou shall be par dope 1 and restored to the favor of the Govern ment on the condition that such person will take an sots tosuppott the Constitution of the Lnited St las, and to su-tain and uphold the emaneipa tion and all other proclamations that Mr. Lin coin might isue on that subject His plan fur ther provide that one truth of the population of any State in rebellion may. upon taking the above oath, organize a State government, and that such State shall be entitled to the same rep resentation in Congress as such State was enti tied t by the cenus of 1660. 'in he Continued J t he Itatif iration Tlceting; at M I'aul yiagnificein Demontrulion. On Tuesday last, in pursuance ol a previous call, the Democracy r Decatur and Siielbv counties assembled at St Paul to ratify 'he turn ination of the candidates on the National and State tickets. THE JAM At early morn the delegations DSgaa to arrive, and continued until the run was ai its meridian, when the crowd was est;m ired Sl over six thou sand The delegation liom Noole township was headed by a magnificent chaiiot dt awn by forty four horses, each auimal being decorated with sprigs of evergreen and miniature national dags The vehicle contained thirt;. four of the most beautiful, lovely and patriotic ladies of the Fourth District, waiving their handkerchiefs aud sing ing the "Red, White aud Blue.' On the pa nslsi o! the wagon were inscribed the words "McClellan and Pendleton, the Union and the Constitution forever aud forever " Long and loud were the cheers that greeted the procession, which was three quarters of a mile iu length Delegation alter delegation followed, and thun derous rounds of cheers were sent up from those who had come from far and near to hear mighty truths from great minds and the wrongs tor which this admini.-tratiou must be arraigned. l he Ciatksfield brass band was in attendance aud enlivened the crowd with some "breast I oihing' ' rlrains Two bauds of martial mufic were also ;resent, and their "rub a dubs'" made the blood mount higher and the tread firmer. At 9 o'clock the several delegations repaired to the woods, about a quarter ot a mile south of the town, where everything betokened conve nience. taste and patriotism. The speaker's stand was decorated in the most elegant manner On the left of the staud was a large, tine steel engraving, beautifully encircled witti natural rose, of the greatest mau iu America, i.teTe 1 jscClellan, and our reporter was informed tbat the wut.itvt ot tliat picture wa? . ,J , . . , tobe tbe next President of tbe Luted StwHa; OB Uie opposite Side Sas a beautiful shadow ot the vet lauaeuted and remembered tuesm.tn and patriot, Stephen A Douglas. IFSKCM or MR. S'SSXaUi Mi Mi Donald ssa glad and surprised to' see such an immense throng present. He said the Democrats hud the st nie interests at stake as the Republic!. ; .md we, in cotnmuii with them, h tv e the n cht to control this nation Whether; we may or mi not exneet protection from them, in a few week.- ;iiey may call aSVM us to protect them in their constitutional rg ts Two name were placed before the people of tbe United State t. eorge B. McClellan and Abrah iui Lincoln. It was not his intention la day to ; pra -e tieneral McClellan .- military career It was known. It was conceded by even Mr Liu coin, after the battle of Malvern Hill, to be of a brilliant and - ttf ictory character Congre-s iiad pissed resolutious tendering thanks to Gen , McClellan tor bis indefatigable energv and bra ety The administration bad departed from the t Federal Constitution and brought a war upon the asSStri tiom which every c: y and town in tbe United States has suffered severely. It has also aasl gold up out of sight and desolated our once ' peaceful and happy land. Mr Lincoln has via lated tbe pledges he gave the country in the be Kissing. Tbe Crittenden Kesolation was a foun daiiou fur hope. Wbo has abiied by it? While the (vivemnient has a right to enforce its laws, i; has no more right to overthrow the State law th withe Slate ot Indiana has t tie right to over throw the Constitution of the Federal Govern j ment. Haa the administration lived up to that? I : - w .tr i wageJ against tbe local laws and the Constitution more thau against the rebels. l has been discov ered that treed negroes are good , tor iiottnag but to keep bread from moulding Gen Sherman, when asked by a Massachusetts agent to give him tr.e privilege of recruiting ne , groes in the Southern States, told him be had better go to Mobile. Augusta, or Macon, as there , were no negroes back of him fit for service, and cautioning him not to send any of his recruits lo bis army The division of lbs Slates has resulted tiom the departure from th p edge which Mr Lin coin gave the country in the beginning. He says this war most go on till one side or the other is exbauatsd With Mr Lincoln the abandonment of slavery is the sole condition of peace With (ieorgs B. McClellan the Union is the sole condi tion of peace This line is clearly m rked out. If tha people are for Union alone, let them come under the standard of George B McClellan; if for the abandonment of slavery, under that of Abraham Lincoln When the Chicago Conven tion placed the name of George B McClellan before the people, the hearts of the Democracy were thrilled with joy. trusting that he might yet be our savior. His letter of acceptance should be in every man's hands Governor Morton has said thit McClellan wa no General that he was the worst job Old Abe had made in four years If he is the worst job Old Abe ever made, where is General Bank, who charged the enemy with his wagon train? Washington Citv would have been in the hands of the rebels long ago but tor, the sagacity and w ise generalship ot McUiellan. and he has re ceived the thanks of the nation, and the prayers of Abraham Liucolu that "God vouM bless him" for its preservation The Government cannot outlive four more years of Mr Lincoln's administration; and if we fail in the election this fall anarchy and despot im will reign over Indiana in less than four years. Still it i said that we ought to be a happy people! A happy people indeed, when gold is at domestics double or more than double their former price; coffee, sugar, tea. and provisions at fabulous prices, aud foreign impor tations almost out of reach; with our land, from ocean to ocean, draped in deepest mourning, and the widow and orphan weeping for their dearest their all who has laid down his life for his country; with our land deluged with blood, with all the horrors of civil war staring us wildly in the face, it is thought we ought to be a happy people! God grant that we may yet be happy! Mr. McDonald's remarks were of some length, and coucluded by an earnest and urgent appeal to the Democracy to stand by our gallant stan dard bearer till the last, never despairiug, and we would yet be able to truthfully sav that we were irce American peopie At tha cssctaaioa si Mr. McDosakis spead S a. which had held the multitude in breathle m lence lor two hours, three cheers were r.roDoed for Joseph E McDonald, which were given with such stentorian voice? a uiu?t have astonished ! the tjuiet old woods with their echoitia. Hon. Oscar B. llord was then called-to the stand and addressed the crowd in a very brief but very pointed speech. He said the salvation or the subversion of the country rested with the result this fall, and hoped the Democrata would stand up to the work in this momentous contest His remarks were eloquent, patriotic and telling, and were received with marked enthusiasm. At the conclusion of Mr. Hord's speech the crowd moved in procession to the town, where they broke ranks and dispersed tor their homes In the evening Hon William S. Holmau ad dressed a crowd from the depot platform, alter which a grand dance came off at Masonic Hall, which lasted until daylight, and ended the happy gala day.
