VaUaadigham and his Traducers. Twenty Falsehood Sefoted. .'. For a long time the Abolition preas have , been ottering the most jrroaa faUtehooda againat Mr. Yallaadigbatn. They bare charged him with all manner of things, which they knew to be faiae when the uttered them. We copy tldw a long lift of these false charges, and prove them to be each from the speeches and resolul ions of Alf. Vallandigham. Here are the charges and the proof of their falsity : Charge I. " That Vallandigham ta opposed to a restoration fcl the Union." ' , To ahow the untruth fulness of this charge, copy be following resolution from a series introduced in Congress by Mr. Vallandigham : ' Revived, That the Union as it. was must oe'restoml and maintained, one and indivisible forever, under the Constitution as it is, the "fifth article, providing for aiucndiuents, inclu-Med." V 'In a speech accepting the nomination for ingress, September 4th, 18C2," Mr. Vallan-digham says: I accept the nomination.jind present mj-'aelf to the suffrages of the people, on no other lplatform than the Constitutiox as it is, and 'the Uniojt as it was. It is a platform broad enough for every patriot. Whoever.ia for it J ask his support. Whoever is against : it, ''I "vroold no have his vote. Every fuculty of body aud mind which I pongee's shall be" exerted unremittingly for the great purpose implied on this platibrm." Again, Mr. Vallandigham says: I an for the Union. It was good enough for our fathers ; it is good enough for ua, and .our children after us." : We could fill our paper with similar ex-tract from the speeches of Mr. Vallandig-Lara, but will make the above suffice for the present. . Charge 2 "That Mr. Vllandigham is 10 favor of a dissolution of the Union." ' To refute this we ta&rthe foHowing extracts from Mr. Vallandigbam's speeches : j 44 Sir, I am agamtft ixunion. I M do. , Jnore pleasure in a Souibern disnnionist thaji lu a S-exiiri or Wslern diounionibt." In speakwrg ayn the bill to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia, Mr. Vallrjidigham iayer-' " . ; ' :V,: ': "Had I no other rwvon, t am opposed to it the bill because I regr.rd all this class of Jeekdation as teoi'.ijig to prevent a restoration oft he Uniono' f these States, as it was, and that is the object to which I look. I know well, that in a very littU while the question will 2 between tlu old Union of these SUiXet Ll - Union u our fa titers made it or some new one, ' or some new unity .of Government, or xtibn.il scrARATiox disi-'xiom. TO BOTH UF THESE LATrKli I AM UNALTERABLY AND UNCOXDITION ALLY OPPOSED. It is to the restoration of the Union ad it was, in 1780, and continued for over aevent" years, that I am bound to the last hour of tnv nolit- . ical and persopfll existence, if it be within the limits of possibility, to restore aud maintain that Uniou." Charge 3. "That Mr. Vallandigham is . in favor of a dishonorable peace." In reply to this we copy the following resolution introduced into Congress by Mr. Vallandigham:i " Resolved, That if any person in the civil or military service of the United States shall propose peace, or accept or advise any acceptance of any such terms on any other than the iintegrity entirely of the Federal Union, as at the beginning of the civil war, he shall be ;.guilty of a high crime' Charge 4," That Mr. Vallandigham is - in-for peace on any terms." - Ia reply to this we publish the following ex- tract from a speech delivered by Mr. Yallan digham in New York, Maich 7, 18C3 : ' I am not for peace on any ternM. I would not be with any country on the face of the ...Globe. Honor is the life -e the Dation, and it is never to be eacritic4r I have as high a v eme of Uoaor aa'awjr man in the South, and rI love tmy country too . well, and cherish .its ..bettor too profoundly, for a eingle moment to eaaseat to a dishonorable peace.

That ia my faitfi; and I mean to cling to it as the wrecked 'marribef clings to the last plank amid the shipwreck.". . ' . Agaioy Mr.' Vallandigham saya jo another . apeedi:: t: .-t " Naver, with 'my consent, shall peace be purchased at the price of DISUNION." Charge ff. "That Mr. Vallandigham is re favor of an unconditional withdrawal of our artniea In the field."

In a speech upon the amendments he says: Sir, the naiora) and inevitable result of these amendments will be to preclude the pos sibility of sectional parties and combinations to obtain possession of either the legislative or executive power, and the natron a re of the Federal Government ; and. if not to suppress totally, at least very greatly to diminish the evil results of national caucuses, conventions. and other similar party Appliances. It will no longer be possible to elect a President bv the voters of a ntere dominant ami majority section. Sectional issue must cease as the basis, at least, of large party orranixations. Ambition, or last for power or place, must ook no longer to its owa section, but to the whole country ; and he who would be Presi dent or iu any way the foremost among his countrymen, must consult, henceforth the combined good, and the good willtoo, of all tue sections, ana in this way, consistently with the Constitutionrcan the 'general welfare' be teat attained. Thus, indeed, will the result be, instead of a narrow, illiberal and sectional policy, an enlarged patriotism and extended public spirit." Charfi-e 7. "That Mr. VaUandiirham Is a friend to the Confederate States." Mr. Vallandigham says in one of bis speech es : "I am not a friend to the Con federate States. nor their cause, Out their enemy." Charee 8. "That the rebels favor Mr. ValJandigham's election." To prove the falsify of this we copy the fol lowing extract from the Mobile Register a lead- ng rebel paper : - "Give us men like Thaddeus Stevens and Charles Sumner. They curse it and despise it, ami so do we. And now we promise these gentlemen, that as they hate the Union and theaeurf Constitution, let theai keep down V alianJi"liani and his party in the North. then they shall never be troubled by us with such whining about the Constitution and the Union as they are sending up." And this one from the Richmond Enquirer: " We wish from our hearts they Vallandig-am and Cox 1 were both already safelv chain ed up at the preeent writing. They have done us more harm they and their like than ten thousand Sewards aud Suruntrs. Oh! lock ye up tltse two peace Democrats together with Richardson, in some of your military prisons." Charge 9. That Mr. Vallandigham voted against paying the soldiers." In reply to this, we give the following letter written by Mr. Vallandigham to a friend in Hamilton, replying to this charge: " Datto.v, O., Oct. 7, 18C2. "Dear Sir : In reply to yours ofyesterday, I have to say that 1 supported all the measures of the last Congress looking to thegiYTng" of invalid pensions to all soldiers ' wounded or incurring disability in the military service.' Upon a question like that, no just or humane man could hesitate for a moment. . Every soldier who has performed service is entitled to the pay and bounty provided him by law, and all disabled, in any way, doring the service, are entitled to pensions ; and I have never, either directly by vote, or indirectly by refusing to vote, withheld either, where the service liad been rendered, vr the diabitily hcurral, MOl wyPLD i do so. "C. L. Vallandigham." Ao, in apcech delivered Jan. 14, 1803, he nays : " Not believing the soldiers responsible for the war, or its pnrosea, or its consequences, never wlhhell m rote, where tlieir separate in terests were concerned." Charge 10 "That Mr. Vallandigham refused to vote lor the payment of the soldiers." Mr.- Vallandigham introduced a bill into Congress to increase lite pay of the private soldiers two dollars a month, and to have them paid in gold, instead of paper money, .which was then forty cents below the price of gold. This bill was defeated by the Republicans. Charge 11." That Mr. Vallandigham voted against supplies." Mr. Vallandigham voted for the $G,000,000 to pay the three months men. The proof of this cau be found in the Congressional Globe, 31et page, 37th Congress. Also, upon this subject, the Cincinnati Commercial (Republican,) of June 9th, says: V " Vallandigham , thongh he never cams heartily up to the support of the Government, voted men and money for the prosecution of the war, a fact which the Richmond ' Enquirer remembers against him now, and of which it taunts him now, while yet a guest at Gen, Uragg's headquarter.' Charge 12." That Mr. Vallandigham is opposed to raising troops to put down armed rebellion." to reiute tnis we puoiisn tne touowmg extracts from a speech delivered by Mr. Vallan digham in Congress Jan. 14, 1862: ." The country was at war, and I - belonged to that school of politics which teaches' that when we are at war, the Government I do not mean the executive aloDe but the Gov ernment, is entitled to demand and have with out r distance, such numbers of men, and such amount of money, and supplies general!, as may be necessary tor the war. - ,Againt ' : ' ";' ; : '. " For my own part, sir, while would not in the begin nine have given a dollar or a man. to commence the war, I am willing now that we are in the. midst of .it without any act .of ours to etre just as many men and ac much .money as tnay.be necessary to defend al pro tect the rederaJ government,, : it would be both treason ; and madnesa now to disarm Ui Government.' io the presence of aa enemy .

Charsre 15 -That Mr. Vallandigham in- ritea the invasion of Ohio by the rebehj.f - In reply to this we will copy the followu resolution introduced by Mr. Vallandigham at a Democratic meeting in Hamilton, Ohio, during the threatened raid of Kerby Smith : ' Resolved, That it ia the highest duty of the ciuseu, wnconer ui country or oiaie is invaded, to rush io its rescue by arms, if he is capable of military service, and by money, or otherwise every way if be ia not, and that the democracy aa a part of the people of thia district, laying aside all party feelings for that purpose, are ready with life and fortune to do their pait in discharging thia patriotic duty." Also, in & speech delivered in. Newark, New Jersey, Mr. VaHaadighaaa says upon thia sub ject : If they invade m. we will write for them precisely the history they have been writing for us for the last few months. Tha Miami Valley will have two or three Bull Runs with winch to odorn their historv; the State of New Jersey: will also have several battles which it ia not necessary to allude to onlv the picture will be reversed." Charge 16." That Mr. Vallandicham counseled resistance to the Conscription. Law." In reply to thia we publish the following letter from Mr! Vallandicham to the New York Times: . " Naw Yobk, March 8, I8C3. " Allow me to say that the statement of your reporter that I denied that we owe any obedience to the Conscription Act. and you know that I counseled resistance to it by the People of the North are both incorrect. On the contrary, I expressly counseled.' the trial of all questions ' of law before our judicial courts, and all questions of politics before the tribunal of the ballot-box. I ax r6a obkdi-tMct to ALL laws obedience by the people and by men in power also. I am for a free discussion of all measure? and laws whatso ever as in former times; but for forcible ae-sistaxce to NONE. The ; ballot-box. .and not the cartridge box, is tire instrument for re form and revolution which I would have re sorted to. Let this be rememberetl. C. L. Vallasdighah." Also, we copy the following extract from a speech delivered at Dayton, March, 1862. In speaking of the Conscription Act he said ; " He was for obedience to all laws, and for requiring the men irr power also to obey t hem. He would try all questions of constitutional laws before the conrte, and then enforce the decrees of the courts. He was for trying all political questions by the ballot box. lie would resist no laws by force. He would 'eu-dure almost every other wrong as long as free discussion, free assemblages of the people and free ballot-box remained but the moment they were attacked be would resist. We had a right to change Aduiiniotratioiu? and poli-tict not by forcible revolution, but by the ballot box and this right must be maintained - -" Tt - the Consiitutionahty aud validity of the Con scription Act, in court, a.nd argue its inexpediency and odioosnees before the people; " but would make no resistance to it." Charge 17 "That Mr. Vallandigham was tried aud sentenced bv a Democratic Judge." : . Mr. Vallandigham was tried by a military commission, and sentenced by Gen. Burnside. The sentence being changed to banishment by Abraham Lincoln. ; Charge 18." That Mr. Vallandigham has been convicted of treason, and that he is a convicted traitor." Tc refute this contemptible falsehood we publish the following extract from President Lincoln's reply to the Ohio Committee who watedupon him to obtain the release of Mr. Vallandigham: - "The Military arrests and detentions which have been made, including those of Mr. Vallandigham, which are not different in principle from the other, have been for prevention, and not for punishment as, injunctions to stay injury as proceedings to keep peace and hence, like proceedings in such cased, and for like reasons, they have not been accompanied with indictments, or trials by juries nor in a single case, by any punishment whatever beyond what is purely incidental to the prevention. The sentence of imprisonment in Mr. Vallandighani'a case was to prevent , injury only, and modification of it was made as a less disagreeable mode, to him of securing the same prevention." Charge 19." That Thomas D'Arcy Mo- uee got his mrormation about the intended invasion of Canada by Northern troops from C. L. Vallandigham. In reply to this we publish the following de nial which appeared in the Cincinnati Gazette (Republican) in its issue of August 23 : ; ; "Thomas D'Arcy McGee denies that he re ceived his, information about the .invasion of Canada from Vallandigham. He says that Mr. Holtou, who is a member of the Canadian Government, toll him (McGee) that Thedore Hart told him (Hoi ton j that Secretary Seward told (Hart) that when Canada was invaded it would be with an arraj the number of which he did not recolject. . .. , -.-. ; Chnxeff 20.

The Wyoming received twenty shots, had five men killed and six wounded.- On the 24th of July Admiral Juriz arrived at Kanagawa, in the British steamer Semiramis. The British steamer Tiincredi received the fire from the Japanese batteries, which, together with the forts,-were bombarded for three hours. A hundred and fifty-three British soldier then landed aud destroyed the fort, the guns, and the town. The Japanese only continued the fight from behind the rocks and trees. Three British soldiers were 'killed. It is said that two thousand Japaneae were about- to descend to make an attack upon the vessels. Increase of Infidelity. We listened on Sabbath, last, with much interest, to a sermon from a Re. erend gentleman On the causes of the increase ofJnfidelity; but while he enumerated almost all others, he did not once allude to the one that has made more .infidels and done the sacred cause of religion more vital barm than any other political Abolition, and polUiealpreaching from the sacred desk. .Instead of preaching the Gospel pu rely L Sabbath after Sabbath, . the most of our pulpits are converted into polit-cal rostrums to stir up the worst passions of men. The peace and good will to man which the holy. Scriptures inculcate, is swallowed up in their partisan preferences for the abolition party, and bitter partisan dislikes to democrats and the democratic party, assailing them, in prayers of mockery to God as "northern rebel eympathizera" and "northern disunion ista," mockery, because it is false, and the ebullition of fanatical partisan malignity. Is it any wonder that those whose hearts have not been regenerated; by the Holy Spirit, deride religion as a cheat, and the pulpit as a cloak for ecclesiastical demagogues. . Infidelity cannot fail to reap an abundant harvest from such desecration of a sacred : calling. Mansfield Shield. , What Europe Will Say.

(Laughter. - If I am obnoxious to criticism for my under grown site, let Jack Brough look to his over frown oleagintous tissues of falsehoods and of is personal gibes. Why should lie' call glorious, true and noble George Pugh little ? In intellect, John Brough is to George Pugh as a a tallow candle is to the sun. Laughter. Monsters' like Brough have ever been the butt of ridicule. - The Republican party desirous of making ever memorable this - campaign of 1863, have set up this inordinate incarnation of swelling vanity, to withdraw -the attention of the people from the real issues of the campaign to the curious sport of nature, which has thrown such a behemoth into our politics.

VaUaadigham and his Traducers. Twenty Falsehood Sefoted. .'. For a long time the Abolition preas have , been ottering the most jrroaa faUtehooda againat Mr. Yallaadigbatn. They bare charged him with all manner of things, which they knew to be faiae when the uttered them. We copy tldw a long lift of these false charges, and prove them to be each from the speeches and resolul ions of Alf. Vallandigham. Here are the charges and the proof of their falsity : Charge I. " That Vallandigham ta opposed to a restoration fcl the Union." ' , To ahow the untruth fulness of this charge, copy be following resolution from a series introduced in Congress by Mr. Vallandigham : ' Revived, That the Union as it. was must oe'restoml and maintained, one and indivisible forever, under the Constitution as it is, the "fifth article, providing for aiucndiuents, inclu-Med." V 'In a speech accepting the nomination for ingress, September 4th, 18C2," Mr. Vallan-digham says: I accept the nomination.jind present mj-'aelf to the suffrages of the people, on no other lplatform than the Constitutiox as it is, and 'the Uniojt as it was. It is a platform broad enough for every patriot. Whoever.ia for it J ask his support. Whoever is against : it, ''I "vroold no have his vote. Every fuculty of body aud mind which I pongee's shall be" exerted unremittingly for the great purpose implied on this platibrm." Again, Mr. Vallandigham says: I an for the Union. It was good enough for our fathers ; it is good enough for ua, and .our children after us." : We could fill our paper with similar ex-tract from the speeches of Mr. Vallandig-Lara, but will make the above suffice for the present. . Charge 2 "That Mr. Vllandigham is 10 favor of a dissolution of the Union." ' To refute this we ta&rthe foHowing extracts from Mr. Vallandigbam's speeches : j 44 Sir, I am agamtft ixunion. I M do. , Jnore pleasure in a Souibern disnnionist thaji lu a S-exiiri or Wslern diounionibt." In speakwrg ayn the bill to abolish slavery in the District of Columbia, Mr. Vallrjidigham iayer-' " . ; ' :V,: ': "Had I no other rwvon, t am opposed to it the bill because I regr.rd all this class of Jeekdation as teoi'.ijig to prevent a restoration oft he Uniono' f these States, as it was, and that is the object to which I look. I know well, that in a very littU while the question will 2 between tlu old Union of these SUiXet Ll - Union u our fa titers made it or some new one, ' or some new unity .of Government, or xtibn.il scrARATiox disi-'xiom. TO BOTH UF THESE LATrKli I AM UNALTERABLY AND UNCOXDITION ALLY OPPOSED. It is to the restoration of the Union ad it was, in 1780, and continued for over aevent" years, that I am bound to the last hour of tnv nolit- . ical and persopfll existence, if it be within the limits of possibility, to restore aud maintain that Uniou." Charge 3. "That Mr. Vallandigham is . in favor of a dishonorable peace." In reply to this we copy the following resolution introduced into Congress by Mr. Vallandigham:i " Resolved, That if any person in the civil or military service of the United States shall propose peace, or accept or advise any acceptance of any such terms on any other than the iintegrity entirely of the Federal Union, as at the beginning of the civil war, he shall be ;.guilty of a high crime' Charge 4," That Mr. Vallandigham is - in-for peace on any terms." - Ia reply to this we publish the following ex- tract from a speech delivered by Mr. Yallan digham in New York, Maich 7, 18C3 : ' I am not for peace on any ternM. I would not be with any country on the face of the ...Globe. Honor is the life -e the Dation, and it is never to be eacritic4r I have as high a v eme of Uoaor aa'awjr man in the South, and rI love tmy country too . well, and cherish .its ..bettor too profoundly, for a eingle moment to eaaseat to a dishonorable peace.

That ia my faitfi; and I mean to cling to it as the wrecked 'marribef clings to the last plank amid the shipwreck.". . ' . Agaioy Mr.' Vallandigham saya jo another . apeedi:: t: .-t " Naver, with 'my consent, shall peace be purchased at the price of DISUNION." Charge ff. "That Mr. Vallandigham is re favor of an unconditional withdrawal of our artniea In the field."

My object -ihe sole motive by which I have been guided from the beginning of this most iatai revolution is to jiaimtain the Uifiox, and not destroy it." . In a speech upon the amendments he says: Sir, the naiora) and inevitable result of these amendments will be to preclude the pos sibility of sectional parties and combinations to obtain possession of either the legislative or executive power, and the natron a re of the Federal Government ; and. if not to suppress totally, at least very greatly to diminish the evil results of national caucuses, conventions. and other similar party Appliances. It will no longer be possible to elect a President bv the voters of a ntere dominant ami majority section. Sectional issue must cease as the basis, at least, of large party orranixations. Ambition, or last for power or place, must ook no longer to its owa section, but to the whole country ; and he who would be Presi dent or iu any way the foremost among his countrymen, must consult, henceforth the combined good, and the good willtoo, of all tue sections, ana in this way, consistently with the Constitutionrcan the 'general welfare' be teat attained. Thus, indeed, will the result be, instead of a narrow, illiberal and sectional policy, an enlarged patriotism and extended public spirit." Charfi-e 7. "That Mr. VaUandiirham Is a friend to the Confederate States." Mr. Vallandigham says in one of bis speech es : "I am not a friend to the Con federate States. nor their cause, Out their enemy." Charee 8. "That the rebels favor Mr. ValJandigham's election." To prove the falsify of this we copy the fol lowing extract from the Mobile Register a lead- ng rebel paper : - "Give us men like Thaddeus Stevens and Charles Sumner. They curse it and despise it, ami so do we. And now we promise these gentlemen, that as they hate the Union and theaeurf Constitution, let theai keep down V alianJi"liani and his party in the North. then they shall never be troubled by us with such whining about the Constitution and the Union as they are sending up." And this one from the Richmond Enquirer: " We wish from our hearts they Vallandig-am and Cox 1 were both already safelv chain ed up at the preeent writing. They have done us more harm they and their like than ten thousand Sewards aud Suruntrs. Oh! lock ye up tltse two peace Democrats together with Richardson, in some of your military prisons." Charge 9. That Mr. Vallandigham voted against paying the soldiers." In reply to this, we give the following letter written by Mr. Vallandigham to a friend in Hamilton, replying to this charge: " Datto.v, O., Oct. 7, 18C2. "Dear Sir : In reply to yours ofyesterday, I have to say that 1 supported all the measures of the last Congress looking to thegiYTng" of invalid pensions to all soldiers ' wounded or incurring disability in the military service.' Upon a question like that, no just or humane man could hesitate for a moment. . Every soldier who has performed service is entitled to the pay and bounty provided him by law, and all disabled, in any way, doring the service, are entitled to pensions ; and I have never, either directly by vote, or indirectly by refusing to vote, withheld either, where the service liad been rendered, vr the diabitily hcurral, MOl wyPLD i do so. "C. L. Vallandigham." Ao, in apcech delivered Jan. 14, 1803, he nays : " Not believing the soldiers responsible for the war, or its pnrosea, or its consequences, never wlhhell m rote, where tlieir separate in terests were concerned." Charge 10 "That Mr. Vallandigham refused to vote lor the payment of the soldiers." Mr.- Vallandigham introduced a bill into Congress to increase lite pay of the private soldiers two dollars a month, and to have them paid in gold, instead of paper money, .which was then forty cents below the price of gold. This bill was defeated by the Republicans. Charge 11." That Mr. Vallandigham voted against supplies." Mr. Vallandigham voted for the $G,000,000 to pay the three months men. The proof of this cau be found in the Congressional Globe, 31et page, 37th Congress. Also, upon this subject, the Cincinnati Commercial (Republican,) of June 9th, says: V " Vallandigham , thongh he never cams heartily up to the support of the Government, voted men and money for the prosecution of the war, a fact which the Richmond ' Enquirer remembers against him now, and of which it taunts him now, while yet a guest at Gen, Uragg's headquarter.' Charge 12." That Mr. Vallandigham is opposed to raising troops to put down armed rebellion." to reiute tnis we puoiisn tne touowmg extracts from a speech delivered by Mr. Vallan digham in Congress Jan. 14, 1862: ." The country was at war, and I - belonged to that school of politics which teaches' that when we are at war, the Government I do not mean the executive aloDe but the Gov ernment, is entitled to demand and have with out r distance, such numbers of men, and such amount of money, and supplies general!, as may be necessary tor the war. - ,Againt ' : ' ";' ; : '. " For my own part, sir, while would not in the begin nine have given a dollar or a man. to commence the war, I am willing now that we are in the. midst of .it without any act .of ours to etre just as many men and ac much .money as tnay.be necessary to defend al pro tect the rederaJ government,, : it would be both treason ; and madnesa now to disarm Ui Government.' io the presence of aa enemy .

Charsre 15 -That Mr. Vallandigham in- ritea the invasion of Ohio by the rebehj.f - In reply to this we will copy the followu resolution introduced by Mr. Vallandigham at a Democratic meeting in Hamilton, Ohio, during the threatened raid of Kerby Smith : ' Resolved, That it ia the highest duty of the ciuseu, wnconer ui country or oiaie is invaded, to rush io its rescue by arms, if he is capable of military service, and by money, or otherwise every way if be ia not, and that the democracy aa a part of the people of thia district, laying aside all party feelings for that purpose, are ready with life and fortune to do their pait in discharging thia patriotic duty." Also, in & speech delivered in. Newark, New Jersey, Mr. VaHaadighaaa says upon thia sub ject : If they invade m. we will write for them precisely the history they have been writing for us for the last few months. Tha Miami Valley will have two or three Bull Runs with winch to odorn their historv; the State of New Jersey: will also have several battles which it ia not necessary to allude to onlv the picture will be reversed." Charge 16." That Mr. Vallandicham counseled resistance to the Conscription. Law." In reply to thia we publish the following letter from Mr! Vallandicham to the New York Times: . " Naw Yobk, March 8, I8C3. " Allow me to say that the statement of your reporter that I denied that we owe any obedience to the Conscription Act. and you know that I counseled resistance to it by the People of the North are both incorrect. On the contrary, I expressly counseled.' the trial of all questions ' of law before our judicial courts, and all questions of politics before the tribunal of the ballot-box. I ax r6a obkdi-tMct to ALL laws obedience by the people and by men in power also. I am for a free discussion of all measure? and laws whatso ever as in former times; but for forcible ae-sistaxce to NONE. The ; ballot-box. .and not the cartridge box, is tire instrument for re form and revolution which I would have re sorted to. Let this be rememberetl. C. L. Vallasdighah." Also, we copy the following extract from a speech delivered at Dayton, March, 1862. In speaking of the Conscription Act he said ; " He was for obedience to all laws, and for requiring the men irr power also to obey t hem. He would try all questions of constitutional laws before the conrte, and then enforce the decrees of the courts. He was for trying all political questions by the ballot box. lie would resist no laws by force. He would 'eu-dure almost every other wrong as long as free discussion, free assemblages of the people and free ballot-box remained but the moment they were attacked be would resist. We had a right to change Aduiiniotratioiu? and poli-tict not by forcible revolution, but by the ballot box and this right must be maintained - -" Tt - the Consiitutionahty aud validity of the Con scription Act, in court, a.nd argue its inexpediency and odioosnees before the people; " but would make no resistance to it." Charge 17 "That Mr. Vallandigham was tried aud sentenced bv a Democratic Judge." : . Mr. Vallandigham was tried by a military commission, and sentenced by Gen. Burnside. The sentence being changed to banishment by Abraham Lincoln. ; Charge 18." That Mr. Vallandigham has been convicted of treason, and that he is a convicted traitor." Tc refute this contemptible falsehood we publish the following extract from President Lincoln's reply to the Ohio Committee who watedupon him to obtain the release of Mr. Vallandigham: - "The Military arrests and detentions which have been made, including those of Mr. Vallandigham, which are not different in principle from the other, have been for prevention, and not for punishment as, injunctions to stay injury as proceedings to keep peace and hence, like proceedings in such cased, and for like reasons, they have not been accompanied with indictments, or trials by juries nor in a single case, by any punishment whatever beyond what is purely incidental to the prevention. The sentence of imprisonment in Mr. Vallandighani'a case was to prevent , injury only, and modification of it was made as a less disagreeable mode, to him of securing the same prevention." Charge 19." That Thomas D'Arcy Mo- uee got his mrormation about the intended invasion of Canada by Northern troops from C. L. Vallandigham. In reply to this we publish the following de nial which appeared in the Cincinnati Gazette (Republican) in its issue of August 23 : ; ; "Thomas D'Arcy McGee denies that he re ceived his, information about the .invasion of Canada from Vallandigham. He says that Mr. Holtou, who is a member of the Canadian Government, toll him (McGee) that Thedore Hart told him (Hoi ton j that Secretary Seward told (Hart) that when Canada was invaded it would be with an arraj the number of which he did not recolject. . .. , -.-. ; Chnxeff 20.

War. with Japan. v,:-: c War has broken out in Japan, and the sels of the U uitet States have been . busy' in the confl ict. The news is telegraphed r from San Francisco ' It appears that on" the fif teenth of July,- the British ship Medusa, bound from Nangaaaki to Kanagawa, was attacked by forts anJ-vesselhat had rpreviously fired upon the AmeJroan ship'Pembroke.' TbeMe-duaa was much injured by twenty fouT eboU, aud had iour mea kdled and six, wounded. On the 28th of July, the United States steam-erWyojning arrived at Kanagawa, havlng-rer turned from a trip to" punish tueDamio, whose veaseis aod Jorts attacked the Pembroke Slie had blowa ap the Japanese steamer Sa and had nearly silenced the forts. The Wyoming received twenty shots, had five men killed and six wounded.- On the 24th of July Admiral Juriz arrived at Kanagawa, in the British steamer Semiramis. The British steamer Tiincredi received the fire from the Japanese batteries, which, together with the forts,-were bombarded for three hours. A hundred and fifty-three British soldier then landed aud destroyed the fort, the guns, and the town. The Japanese only continued the fight from behind the rocks and trees. Three British soldiers were 'killed. It is said that two thousand Japaneae were about- to descend to make an attack upon the vessels. Increase of Infidelity. We listened on Sabbath, last, with much interest, to a sermon from a Re. erend gentleman On the causes of the increase ofJnfidelity; but while he enumerated almost all others, he did not once allude to the one that has made more .infidels and done the sacred cause of religion more vital barm than any other political Abolition, and polUiealpreaching from the sacred desk. .Instead of preaching the Gospel pu rely L Sabbath after Sabbath, . the most of our pulpits are converted into polit-cal rostrums to stir up the worst passions of men. The peace and good will to man which the holy. Scriptures inculcate, is swallowed up in their partisan preferences for the abolition party, and bitter partisan dislikes to democrats and the democratic party, assailing them, in prayers of mockery to God as "northern rebel eympathizera" and "northern disunion ista," mockery, because it is false, and the ebullition of fanatical partisan malignity. Is it any wonder that those whose hearts have not been regenerated; by the Holy Spirit, deride religion as a cheat, and the pulpit as a cloak for ecclesiastical demagogues. . Infidelity cannot fail to reap an abundant harvest from such desecration of a sacred : calling. Mansfield Shield. , What Europe Will Say.
