Who "Proclaimed War!"
f The New York Times, an accredited
leading Republican paper, in its Issue of the
6th , Inst., in an editorial taking issue with
Thaddecs Steteks for stating that the
Rebel States are belligerents and "that they
are ho loDger in the Union," writes this
down as a fact that can not be gainsayed:
-. "'The Confederacy' wanted peace, and
sent Commissioners to Washington to secure
it. We would cot receive them, and pro
claimed war. Tbey accepted War. The
question tolto fired the first gun is nothing."
This is rather a strange confession. We
have been generally told that the Rebels
proclaimed and commenced the War. This
Republican -authority says that we pro.
claimed the War, and that the Rebels ac
cepted it." Probably tbe people will get at
the truth after awhile.

Tories Then a ad Tor le Wow. .
During that terrible struggle for American
Independence, there was a class of. individ
uals, friends to the old government, whom
we now call tories, wbo acted as spies and
informers upon the acts," sayings and dd
ings of our revolutionary fathers. They
were.scattered all over tbe country, osten
sibly tbe friends of the colonies, but in re
ality the aiders and abettors of tyranny and
despotism, laboring to overthrow the rights
and the liberties of the people; they declar
ed that Britain was the only' just friend of
America; every unjust and tyrannical act of
the King was justified, upheld and sustain
ed by them, under the plea of necessity.
They claimed that the colonies could be
jusily taxed at will of tbe King, for "the
benefit of tbe best government on earth;"
that be was right in declaring us rebels,
right in taxing us. right in declaring his
right to bind the colonies in all cases what
soever; they were believers in a "strong
government. Though the history of the
King of Great Britain was a history of re
peated injuries and usurpations, all having
in direct object the establishment of an ab
solute tyranny over these- States, yet, strange
as it may seem to bim who truly loves his
country and is ever watchful of her liber
ties, bis acts of usurpation were vindicated;
he was in all things upheld and sustained,
and indeed justified by the tories of that
day. Tbey denounced all persons who op
posed tbe King or bad the maulioess to
question the justice of the unjust mandates
of his royal highness, as foes to the coun
try, as traitors and rebels. These truculent
tools of King George the provost marshals
tbe attorneys of the crown, the stamp mas
ters, stamp agents, &c, &c, of that day
the real tories and traitors of the revolution,
who would yield up everything to crush the
rebe .on, even to life, liberty and property
joso despicable creatures, the foes of
manhood, whoso patriotism is only equalled
by that of tbe republicans and abolitionists
to-day have comedown to us a stench in
the nostrils of history, their memories de
tested and despised by every good and every
honest man.
Much is said at this time about tories and
traitors. Everybody is a tory who does not
sustain this negro-worsbipping Administra
lion, and justify, to its fullest extent, all the
abominable acts and doings of the party in
power. But when we compare their acts
and doings with those of the tories of tbe
revolution, it is easy to determine wbo are
and who aro not the real tories of to-day.
The parallel between the two is almojt
identical. What is iho history of King
Lincoln 17 A history of repeated injuries
and usurpations, all having in direct object
the establishment or an absolute tyranny
over these States. To prove this let facts
be submitted to a candid world.
He has erected a multitude of new offices
and sent hither swarms of officers to harrass
our people and eat out their substance.
He has affected to render the military in
dependent of and superior to the civi
power.
He has combined with others to subject
us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitu
tion, unacknowledged by our laws, giving
his assent to their acts or pretended legis
lation. For quartering large bodies of armed
troops among us for any mnrders which
they may commit 00 tne inhabitants of
these States.
For arresting peaceable and unoffending
citizens without due processor law.
Fcr suspending the writ of habeas corpus
throughout the several States.
For depriving us of the benefit of tiial by
jury.
For transporting us beyond tbe jurisdic
tion of a State to be tried for pretended of
fences, or to be imprisoned at will.
For imposing taxes upon us without our
consent.
For abolishing the free system of Ameri
can laws in the neighboring States, estab
lish. ng therein absolute governments with
out the consent of their legislatures or of the
people.
For abolishing our most valuable laws and
altering fundamentally the powers of our
government.
He has ravaged our coasts, burned our
towns and destroyed the lives of our
people.
lie has constrained our fellow citizens to
become the executioners of their brethren,
or to fall themselves by their bands.
He has excited domestic insurrection
amongst us, and has endeavored to bring
on tbe inhabitants of our frontiers tbe mer
ciless (negro) savages, whose known role
of warfare is the undistinguished destruction
of all ages, sexes and conditions.
We have enumerated but few, very few,
of the unwarranted, unconstitutional and
tyrannical acts of tbe reckless tyrant that
now fills with paradoxical vacancy the chair
once filled by Washington, Jefferson, Madi
son, Monroe, and Jackson. Old King
George, when compared with Abraham Lin
coln, appears is proper light. If George
III was a great tyrant, Abraham Lincoln is
a much greater one; for surely the acts of
tbe Administration at Washington would
make King George blush and hang his head
with very shame; yet wonderful to relate,
all the unwarrantable usurpations of power
00 the part of the Executive, are justified,
and every act of tyranny upheld by the
abolition party, the tories and traitors of to
day, the provost marshals, the military gov
ernors, tbe stamp masters, stamp agents,
federal collectors, assessors and sub-assessors
the law officers of king Lincoln I. These
hirelings of despotism tell us we must sus
tain our government, that honest Old Abe
is the friend of the people, that we must
yield up everything to save the country, to
put down this wicked rebellion and save
"the best government on earth," that we
must sacrifice life, liberty and property, sub
mit to taxation, stamp acts, stamp duties,
high tariffs, anything and everything, for
what purpose" to carry on a most wicsed,
unjust, unnecessary civil war. wnicn iney
have inaugurated, and which they boldly
declare is to liberate four millions of igno
rant, semi-barbarous African slaves, to wipe
out State sovereignty, to change tundamen
tally our forms, and Bystems of government;
in fine, to overthrow tne consuiuiion ana
destroy tbe rights and liberties 01 a once
free and indeDendent people. And when
we Question the iustice or necessity of this
war. when we avow ourselves in favor of
peace, and demand that our rigQts ana r.o
erties he respected, these traitors and tories
of to-day, while wading to their knees in
the blood of more than three hundred
thousand of their slaughtered countrymen,
while liberty is violated, stabbed and bleed
ing at their feet, and they stand with their
arms to tbe elbows in the public treasury,
robbing, stealing, plundering from the toil
ing masses these fawnitg sycophants de
nounce every man who whispers "peace on
eartbgood will to men," as traitors, seces
sionists, rebels, copperheads, "butternuts,
&c. and deserving imprisonment in a baa
tile, or hanging.
1776 and 1864; what a striking similsrity
between then and now; there, was a Lord
North then, there is a Lord North now; we
had a-king and despotism then,, we have
the same thing now; we had a rebellion
then against." the bestgovernment on earth'
we have a rebellion, now against "the best
government on earth,", we had taxation
then, we have taxation now.. The rebels of
that day believed that governments derived
their just powers from the consent of the
governed, the rebels of to-day believe the
same thing; jhe government then declared
the right te bind the colonies in. all cases
whatsoever, our. government now declares
tbe same tuing; we had tories then who de
clared the government could rightfully ex
ercise such unwarrantable jurisdiction over
these States, and we have tories now who
declare the same thing, we had a stamp act
then, and some tories corrupt euough to ac
cept the office of stamp ageo under It, and
have similar things now; our rebel forefa
thers compelled them to resign, and burned
them In effigy in almost every city, town,
and hamlet in the land, whiletheir children
blessed tbem for it.
The friends rf constitutional liberty, those
who are being denounced as traitors, tories
and rebels now, will ere 2ong rise up in their
majesty and strength and compel those
hirelings of despotism in our midst to resign,
and be burnt in effigy in imitation of the
glorious past, while our children and our
children's children, to the latest generation,
will bless our memories for it. Can any
one fail to see that the only real foes to the
Constitution, to liberty and to law, in tbi
country, the real tories of to-day, the per
fidious authors of all our national troubles
and calamities, are tbe Republicans and
Abolitionists? that party that touches but
to destroy, that rules but to ruin?

Mr. Bell, from the Select Committee, to
whom the subject was referred, reported the
following resolution.! on Federal affairs.
Resolved by the General Assembly of ike
Commonwealth of Kentucky. J. hat this State
need make no further exhibition, by way of
political resolutions, of her intense loyaltv,
or of her Kincere and unalterable devotion
to the National Union. Her stand has
been taken after the maturest deliberation,
and it is known to the world. She will not
prove recreant by taking any backward step,
but will go forward with nil her resources
of men, money, and credit, to the support
of our gallant armies in the field, till the
rebellion is subdued and treason disarmed;
and she will, through the peaceful mode
prescribed by the fundamental laws of tbe
land, use her efforts to correct any errors
that may have been committed either by
tbe Executive or the legislative departments
of the (jrovernment.
Resolved, That we regard as impolitic
the enlistment of negroes as soldiers into
the armies of the United States, and we
earnestly protest against their enlistmeut
within tbe state of Kentucky; and we re
spectfully request the President of the
United States to remove from our limits
and borders all camps for negro soldiers by
which our slaves aro enticed to leave the
service of their owners.
Resolved, That in the opinion of this
General Assembly, the legal status of tne
States in rebellion, as regards the Union,
was not changed by tbe criminal action of
their people in attempting to secede, thus
forcing a civil war upon the people ot tne
country; and when the people of any or all
these States shall in good faith return to
their allegiance, their States, as before the
war are members of the great American
Union, and the people thereof are citizens.
all subject to the Constitution and laws of
tbe United states.
Mr. Bell has the floor, and will advocate
these resolutions to-morrow.

"The Bastile of Paris was a royal Castle,
built by Charles V. King of Dranco, com
pleted in 1383. for tbe defence of Paris
against the English, it was afterwards used
as a State prison, like the Tower of London,"
(and Fort Lafayette,) "and became the scene
of tbe most deplorable suffering and fright
ful crimes. It was of euch strength that
Henry IV. and his veteran army assailed it
in vain in the siege of Paris, during the in
testine war which desolated France, between
the years 1787 and 1594; yet it was pulled
down by the infuriated populace, July 14,
1789; and thus was commenced the French
Revolution. On the capture of this great
monument of slavery, the governor, and
other officers, were seized , and taken to the
Place db Greve, and having had their hands
