The Copperheads aliaxDtmocncji of Kentucky haW'lpoken. They have no question to where they stand. The first resolution they adopt is intended to carry the idea that tbo government at Wuhington is equally guilty of treuon with the one at Richmond the second, that coercion is unconstitutional; tha third deelurei for tn immediate armistice and national convention the fourth, for the doctrine of State rights, and denoun cel the Administration for abusing it tbo fifth, that free speech, a free press, shonld be maintained at all haiardi tha sixth, sgaiut tbs nsgro generally tho seventh and lut, that tbs great thinj is to defeat Lineoln and Johuon, am to this end they will support anythin gainst them, and that they look to Chi eago to indicate wbat that shall be. The plain meaning of nil this is that the Kentucky Democrats are in favor oi tha rcbollion and want it to aucceed. Wo are glad, however, they have spoken out so distinctly, it shows whataiweot scented thing unadulterated Copperheai Democracy it not only in Kentucky, but in Miuouri, Illinois and everywhere else.

In Missouri and Illinois lata Democratic Conventions have determined upon' the polity of laying nothingTt all-adopting no resolutions or platformi but by reference to the resolution of the Kentucky Democracy tho publio eau see precisely what they would hsvo said, if they had dared express their views, shows another thing, via the utter folly of any loyal party looking for any kirn of connection with the Demoeruy, from which John C. Fremont, in hie conversation with Wendell Phillips and Iloin-len of the Boston Pioneor, exprotsei himtolf looking for tho largest contingent of hit supporters. hlixxuuri Democrat. tirauFa Campaign French Opinion of the Pro pert of the Rebel. The following article il from Faria Siecl We cannot too energetically oppose tbs false ideu which certain organs of opinion havo accredited on thin subject among tbs French pnblie.

It ia no rarity to meet people, thorough liberals, too whp rejoice over the triumph of the Booth when triumphi there aro, bnt who would be puiuled to explain their preference. We must repeat it, however, the South is in the position which our provioeet in the South or tho Weet would oecupy wrro they to revolt against France and French unity. Would tha milt determined partixane of tho South dan iu that cue to justify such insurgents The North is fighting for country, for the Union of the States which form it it is fihting, moreover for a great principle, the abolition of alave-ry. Each forward step of tho Federal army strikes to the heart thii monitroui and inhuman institution, which tbs south declares it eannot live without. Tha triumph of the South, on the contrary, would etcrniie slavery, and jutify every despotism.

General Grant is the representative of thtwo grandest and holiest things in this world country and liberty. General Lee, on the contrary, despite hit undoubted qualities, hil military talents and hie admirable energy, il merely a rebel leader who preuhea with arms iu hie hands, in ths middle of the nineteenth century, the sltrery which Christ condemned. Do the partisans of tho South know that In lamenting the lueeessM of Grant and hie army, do they really know that they aro opposing tha principle of national nnity, liberty and human fraternity? For ourselves, ouraympu-tbiu could not be doubted for an instant wa are for ths North, we shonld be for Franco against La Vendee or Brittsny, if they wanted to sever tho tie which binds them to French nnity we aro fur the North because we abhor slavery. Murder! Murder SI Sunday evening, July 3d, near tha residence of Joseph F. Eddleman on the (jreenville road, Bennett Murray, one of the boat eitiieni of tha aounty, waa mur dcred by robbera.

Hama evening three several nun were robbed of their horso by tho same gang. On tha morning of the 4th Jeffenon Ilartlo, living on White Water who wu one of tha tost citiiona in the eommnnity waa killed by the lame gang. What other depredatiena thiagang may have committed aince, is not known up to the time of writing. Jamca Collier ia one of this gang and is generally known in this county. lie la the lame person who wu stabbed by Mra.

Fillowfi lomo weeks since iu Bois Brnlo Bottom, and had 10 mneh aympa thy and frlbndahip extended to him on that occasion by cortain persons, in po' sition. Totor Smith is another, the same person who robbed Mr. Nugont, of Cape Girardeau county, somo time sinco, and wu more recently engagod in robbing Mr. Bichls. Two othors were along, suppoiod to be tho same gang all together, who rob bed Mr.

Huber a short time since, and the same men who were secreted in tho immediate neighborhood of Mr. Alexius Manning for exhort timo. prefipRS to tho last named robbory. Until recently this county hu bun peaeoablo and quiet, although disloyal sentiment to a eensidorablo extent his irerailcd, ever since tho commoncoment of tho rebellion, and it wu hoped (tha disloyalty of tho eitiicns to tho contrary notwithstanding) that ordor and peace would not bo disturbed. Many who saw, or thought they taw into tho future, predicted that peace would be of but short duration.

They argued thu wise, although many of tha loading secessionist! lava much to loso, and fear to lose it, they will so manage to got all evil disposod men in tho community fully ou-listed in tho rebellion, that, by harboring frank Valle and his gang, who have been requently sun at houses of the woaltby sccosh, by giving aid, eomfort, information and uiistsnce to tbo enemies of the country, and fnily assuring them of thoir co-operation and usistance. They would then sot up a Union howl, eroak loyalty, impose on tho ignorant andnnwary, foist themselves into the eonneils of the loyal; and by falso representations, thurst thorn-selves into important positions, both eivil and military, proclaim that tho radicals aro the onemies of tho country, and invito their confederates to eomo into the country and rob a.ul mnrdor at pleuure. Aa a part of tho programme, tho militia of this county, especially the Dutch wero to be disarmed, tho enrolled militia as much possible, to be nndor tho control of eons, (you can make that word moan confederates, if you like, jut woll to mean conservatives) and then when a raid should bo mado and tho officers should be cnllod upon by tho poo-do, thoir statements of robbery and murder, could bo discredited, and when the acts were forced upon them, they would bo able to allay all importunity by saying that they could furnish neither arms or ammunition, and so tho matter, for the time being, was expected to end. These predictions may prove, in timo, to true, we hopo not. Let all tho earnestly loyal men of tho county tako hold of the work before them (that it protcc-.

Let the disloyal, tho robbor, tho thief, tho assassin find tho air of Missouri! uncongenial Tho energetic alone succeed.

Fremont and Cochrane. If Fremont and Cochrane are not Copperheads, will lome one of their numer oua frienda tell us what means the banished traitors (C. L. Vallandigham) in doreement of Fremont movement? What means the positive indorsement of that movement by one of the Ward Democratic meetings in Detroit What muni the half way or positive indorsement of that movement by every Democratic mce ting or convention being held in the coun try? And lutly, what did John Coch-rano mean when, in tho convention that nominated him, he said, 'we ought to shape our policy with a view to its indorsement by the Chicago convention Come, ya fellows who would hsvo os be-ieve and confide in tho patriotism and ability and integrity of the pair of Jacks yo have tackled to your lead, come up to the work and explain. Lebanon Mo.

Union. The Commutation CLinsr, The musea of our Union readers will rejoice with ns that tho Senate has, by tho decided vote of twenty-seven ayes to eight nays, reversed its former action on tho $300 commutation clause in tho con scription law. The House hat probably, iy this time, takrn the same course, bar ing already voiod to reconsider. Thus tho 1300 exemption from militaiy duty under draft will bo abolished, and our struggling armios will be thereby heavily reinforced. This is precisely as it should e.

It is part of the plain, righteous, and only mods of ending tha war. The cry of Copperheads and timid men that a draft without commutation cannot be executed will prove groundless. It remained only for tha Government to take the steps necessary to close the war. The peoplo will abundantly sustain such steps the clamors of cowardly factionists to tho contrary notwithstanding. The peo plo would nt any time daring the past of the war hare supported the Administration in any efficient measures for overwhelming and whiping eut the Confeder aey in the briefest possible period.

A fear of asking too much of the people, and of arousing tho hostility of toriea and other dastards, seems to us to havo too much modified the war polity of the government. Mo. Democrat.

Wo received a letter a few daya aince from aomo of our friondi in Bollinger county, inquiring of na if Frank Valle waa nominated by the Democracy of this county aa a dolegato to attond the Convention held in St.

Lonia by tho Democracy laat month. Wo Bay to our friondi in Bollinger that Mr. Valle waa nominated by aomo peraona of Terry county at that meeting, but wo are informed that he did not attend said convention, owning to not having received tho newa of hit nomination. Ho may poaaibly make it eonvonient to bo present at tho Na tioual Democratic Convention which assembles at tho eity of Chicago on the 20th of Angnst next, where it is supposed that John Morgan, and C. L.

Val-landigham and others of their yelk wil be in attendance. Thcso are tho gentlemen who will lend a hand in assisting' to bring forth a Copperhead Democratic candidate for President. Frank Valle issomo whero in Missouri just at this time, and we think it possible bo will be strongly solicited by his numorous friends to attend the Convention at Chicago on the 29th of next month, and there participate in their sacred deliberations, however, we msy be mistaken. fiQTThoagh war still wages and wutca wa are kept whole, a nation by tha stream of emigrant who are coming in each eagerness to onr shores. Soma 200,000 of them have eomo among ne during the put year and it is estimated that a (till larger number will eome over this year.

This does not look if the people of Europe were afraid we were not going to hold together a nation much longer. Evidently they have faith, let ours wane or not. The emigration now coming from Europe i of an excellent character, most of it being composed of young men and women who aro ready to go to work, and who will find all tha occupation for their muscle which they are Willing to bespeak. Right Between the Eyes The Louisville Journal, eager to do tho dirty work of slavery, remarks: Tho Abolitionists advocate amalgamation but boforo they practice It, they will havo to get the consent of the nigger, and tha nigger is getting proud. To which the Louisville Preu respond with tha following stinger: Heretofore tho patriarchal aristocracy have not consulted tha nigger, bnt practiced amalgamation at will, and wero always proud.

What Grant hab Done. Since Gen. Grant crossed tho Rapidsn be hu token 17,000 prisoners, not including those of the lut ten days, while his own loss is leu than one-third that number. Among tha recent prisoners were several over sixty years old and boys of fourteen and sixteen. They ill say they were forced nto the rebel ranks.

tST Into Richmond piper deprecates in strong terms the habit of qnu-tioning Yankee prisoners as to tbo duration of tho war, alleging that no answer ia ever giver, and no other eoald be expected, than that the war will not find except with tho restoration of the Union. JSTbere is but one sentiment among tho soldiers relative to the Baltimore candidates, and whenever tboy shall ha al-owed to give shape to their sentiments, their votes will be eut for Lineoln and Johnson. Military, Attention. A company for homo-protoetion is now being raised in compliance with General Order No. 107, to serve in Perry eounty, when occasion may require.

They will, when organised, be equiped and armed by tho State, and will also be paid by tho State for the services required of them. By aaiJ order each county ia requested to farnii two companies for laid aenrito. Tho labor will bo light. Tho object is, emphatically, for bomo-proteetion to guard yourselves and neighbors against guerrilla and robber of every doacrip tion, a thing which ia much needed. Tho company will be mounted and will bo called into actual service only when necessity may require their service.

At all other times they will be permitted to SSCoppmheadiim on the decrease. yr IF -M JX.
