Destructive only cd-despotisin, it is the sole conservator of lib wtly, labor and property. It is the sentiment of Freedom, of equal rights, of equal obligations--the law of nature pervading the law of the land." WAYNESBURG, PA. Wednesday, May 14, 1861. "IT WAS, BUT IS NOT." It is evident that the Republican party is a thing of the past,—that, as a .distinct and formidable political organization, it has ceased to exist,—that under its old style and title, and on its sectional, anti-sla very platform, it has fought its last battle and achieved its last victory. It has been weighed in the balance and found want- ing. Its doctrines and policy have been found at war with the harmony and sub- versive of the true interests of the coun try, and the people only await an opportu nity to put upon them the broad seal of their condemnation. Conscious of this fact, and of the approaching and certain dissolution of the only sectional political organization which has had an existence in the history of the country, Republican prints and politicians are betrayingeonsid erable anxiety as to its successor in the pop ular affections, and as to "where they are to go" and "what is to become of them." Putting their faith, as heretofore, in names, rather than in great principles embodying fundamental political truths and origina- ting measures of vital moment to the public — happiness, they are just now engaged in an interesting "pow-wow" over the ehris teniug of the new bantling upon whose shoulders is, soon to fall the sweet-smell- ing mantle of Sambo. Forney, the rene gade and demagogue, is for styling the "coming" party the "People's Party," (with the "people" 10 out, if we are not mistaken, like Hamlet wi.th the leading -character omitted,) while William B. 'Thomas and other Philadelphia politi cians have declared for the old name ands straight Republican ticket,which would cer tainly go straight to the d—euce. The State Central Committee, on the other hand, are in favor of coalescing with the factions, fag-ends and fragments of all parties, and for rallying them to the battle-cry of -"Union," and under that popular name.— In accordance with this programme, they .have issued a call for a Convention at Har lisbwrg on the 17th of July next to nomi nate candidates for State °Aces, and all'peo ple" who ace far "preserving the Union of our fathers" hale bids to the gathering. As the Democratic party have always been, are now, and always will be, in favor of this very thing, and "nothing else," it may consid- er itself embraced in the broad and catho- lic call. As it is not, however, given to "mixing" and trafficking with every party and fractional part of a party that has gone into liquidation and seeks a market for its assets, there is little probability of its accepting the invitation so cordially ex tended. But the absence of Democrats from the proposed Convention, while it will detract largely from the respectability, conservatism and loyalty of the gathering, will make it none the less interesting to lookers-on. The crowd will be a motley one,—"red spirits and white, blue spirits and grey," young and hopeful aspirants for office and honors, old and bankrupt party hacks, moderate Republicans and intense Abolitionists will tningle in sweet accord and patch up a platform suited to the exigencies of the Opposition and to the varied tastes and notions of the framers, and of those who are expected to stand on its checkered surface. Phillips and Love- joy, or Borne of their disciples, will furnish the meat for the eta ong stomachs of the Con vention,while the "milk and water" will be dished up by some of the "half and half" John Hickman renegades. Altogether it will be a rare assemblage, and those who attend 'may expect a "gay and festive" time. But, if after all, the labors of the Convention should come to naught, and the candidates it puts forward should be "drubbed out of their boots" at the Fall election, we shall not "miss our guess."— The chameleon is the same animal, not -.withstanding its frequent changes.of color, :and the Opposition the Democracy will lave to encounter the coming campaign •will be the same, in all save name, as that ,of old. The people are not to be longer _gulled by pretentious and "cunningly de wised" names, or loud, but hypocritical pro fessions. They have learned, from bitter experience, how little confidence is to be reposed in the graceless Abolition zealots and mercenary demagogues who deceived them so badly in 1860, and who have ever since been fattening on the treasures and apeoulatiag on the misfortunes of the ,country; and it will he a long time, a very l o ng while, before the people again commit tb,eir kde.rests And destinies to their keep ing.

He died in the Hospital at Quincy, Illinois, on his return to hiss home at Tiekilwa, Bureau county, where he leaves a wife and three children. Most of our readers in Greene and Fay ette counties knew "Thorne' Strain, and all who knew him loved and will heartily -lament him.

The following letter from •JEFFERSON CRAWFORD, Esq., formerly of this county, will be read with peculiar interest by the numerous friends of this gallant young officer. We are not surprised or disap pointed at the cool and chivalric beariug of the Lieutenant before the enemy. He has the courage, intelligence and presence of mind indispensible to the efficient and successful leader, and only needed oppor tunities to insure promothin and "win him a name." We sincerely regret that his honorable wounds are likely to lose his pluck and example to the service. But to the letter : HAZEL GREEN, WiB., Ma y 1, 1862 A. A. PURMAN, Esq.—Dear Sir Yours of the 23d April was received yesterday - morning, and my daughter answered as far as she was able. I have just returned from the battle field, and left your brother day be fore yesterday at the Hospital at Keokuk, lowa, I am happy to inform you that,although severely wounded, he is not considered by the Surgeons to be dangerously so. lie is in good spirits and in a fair way for recovery. I helped put him on the boat at Sa vannah, along with others from our town, and by taking the railroad at Cairo, I was at Keokuk ahead of them to receive them, and see them safe into the Hospital. I remained with them for over a week. I got furloughs for all that could be moved without injury and brought them home. Your brother was one that it was thought best not to move, but I enlisted some of the best citizens in his case and you may rest assured he will receive the very best of care. He is shot through the left arm, and was struck in the back just above the hip bone by a piece of a shell, which made a very ugly wound, i but the spine is not injured. I am told by the Surgeous who examined it, that he will recover, and that he is not likely to be• any the worse ; although it will take a good while for him to get well. It is my inten tion to go down again and bring him home as soon as he can safely be moved. I spent two days on the battle- field, and all the boys who were with ' him in the fight, say he may truly be called the bravest of the brave.— He stood up in plain view of the enemy, where the balls were coming as thick as hail ; passing along the lines encouraging his men (who were laying down,) to keep cool and take good aim—never fire until they had their man. His clothes were litterly shot to pieces, five balls past through them, besides the two which wound ed him ; one of which went through his coat and vest, right across the breast, going in about over one nip ple and out over the other, yet it did not touch the skin. When he was shot through the arm he was ty ing up a man's head, who had a slight wound. He said to the man, "I have tied you up, now you tie me up," gave him his handkerchief and he tied it around his arm Over his coat. But he soon found it was bleeding badly and asked Lieut. White to rip open his coat and tie it up. White done so and remarked to him, "we had better kneel down and be out of the range of those balls." They were just over the brow of a hill, so that by getting down they were out of the range, and while in that posture a shell burst near and be received his bad wound. He was helped off the field and taken in a wagon to the landing and from there to Savannah, where I found him a week after the fight. He told me to write you as he is not able to write himself. You need not be alarmed about him, as I said before, he is doing well and is in bet ter hands than most men in a hos pital,. Cau't you go and see him ? Yours Truly. JEFFERSON CRAWFORD. P. S.—Your brother lost every thing. His uniform was in his trunk, which the secesh got. His sword and revolver be gave to a man to carry for him when he was wounded. He has never seen or heard of him since, and he was probably killed.

LABOR SAVING INVENTION. We were shown, the other day, by Mr. W. N. Williams, the owner of the right for Fayette, Greene and Washington counties, a specimen Washing Machine, of an en tirely new and different style from any thing of the kind previously patented. It is simple in construction, requires little or no labor to operate it, and with it an ordi nary washing can be done in less than one fourth the time required by hand. Besides, it is exceedingly cheap, and would much more than pay for itself in the way of im proved health and spirits to over-worked women, and thereby relieve many a poor Benedict from the ''eternal scold of wash ing-day." A specimen Machine may be seen by calling on the proprietor, Mr. Williams, who will be at the Hamilton House for a few days. THE TAX BILL AGAIN. Since the report of the national Tax Bill, published last week, several new amendments have been made to it as fol lows : For kissing a pretty girl, $l,OO. For kissing a homely one, s2,oo—the ex tra amount being added probably as a pun ishment for the man's folly. For ladies kissing one another, Ten Dol lars. The tax is placed at this rate in or der to break up the custom altogether, it being regarded by our M. C.'s as a piece of inexcusable absurdity. For every flirtation, 10 ets. Every young man who has more than one 'girl' is taxed $5,00. Fur courting in the kitchen, 25 ets. Courting in the sitting room, 50 cts. Courting in the parlor, $l,OO. Courting in a romantic place, $5,00 and 50 cents for each offence thereafter. Seeing a lady home from Church, 25 cents. Seeing her home from the dime society, 5 cts.—the proceeds to be appropriated to the relief of disabled army chaplains. For every unfair device for entrapping young men into the sin of 'matrimony,' $5,00. For wearing hoops larger than ten feet in circumference, 8 cts. for each hoop. Old bachelors over thirty are taxed $lO. Over forty, $2O. Over fifty, $5O, and sentenced to banish ment in Utah. For every quid of tobacco, 3 ets.; if beg ged from a friend, 6 ets. [This last provision will bear very hard ly on the Senior Editor of the Messenger.] For bowing to a lady in the street, 10 cents. All unmarried ladies, $25 per year; Cal ifornia widows, $5O per year. For being poor, $lO a month. White shirts, 20 cts. a month; colored ones, $l,OO. • Buckwheat cakes are to pay a tax of 3 cts. per dozen; with molasses on, 5 cts. per dozen.

To sit on the curb-stone and peddle ap ples, .: a month. For the privilege of gathering peach-pits, $8 a month. License to peddle peanuts, $25 a year. SIMON CAMERON CONDEMNED. In Congress, on Wednesday last, the fol lowing resolution, as submitted by Mr. lio',men, of Indiana, from the Investiga tion Committee, was read ; J?esolved, That Simon Cameron, late Sec retary of War, by investing Alexander Cummings with the control of large sums of the public money, and authority to pur chase military supplies without restriction, without requiring from him any guaran tee for the faithful performance of his du ties, when the services of competent public officers were available, and by involving the Government in a vast number of con tracts with persons not legitimately enga ged in the business pertaining to the sub ject matter of such contracts—especially in the purchase of arms for future delivery— has adopted a policy highly injurious to the public service, and deserving the cen sure of the House. This resolution was adopted by a vote of 75 yeas against 45 nays. After this emphatic vote of condemna tion, which includes many of his own po litical friends, can it be possible that the President will still persist in sending such a man to represent us at the Russian Capi tal ? Surely Mr. LINCOLN will not thus brave public opinion, and set at defiance the wishes of a large majority of the Amer ican people. e shall see.--Lancaster Intelligencer. TAXATION. The entire taxes which the citizens of Massachusetts will have to pay are esti mated to amount to about $2O per head,•or $75 per poll tbroughout•the State. A GOOD PARODY-lOU TRIITIF THAN POETRY. Vanity Fair is responsible for the follow ing parody upon the well-known poem by Leigh Hunt, entitled "Abou-Ben Adhem :' ADO BO LIMN. Abo Bo Lition (may his tribe decrease!) Awoke one night not very well at ease, And saw within the shadow of his room, Making it mean, and like a stink-weed in bloom, A devil writing in a book of brass; Exceeding cant had made Bo Lition an Ass, And to the shadow he said, a little pale, '‘What setibblest thou?" The phantom raised its tail, And smsweved with a leer of sour discord, "The names of those who own Jeff Davis Lord." "And is mine one?" said Abo. "Not quite so," Replied the Devil. Abo spoke more low, But cheerly still, aching to grasp his pen, "Write me as one who hates the Union then." The devil w rote and vamosed. The next night He came again—this time a little tight— And showed the names who served Jeff Davis best, And lo! Bo Lition's name led all the rest. NEW DEFINITIONS. LOYALTY—means Abolitionism, and im plicit faith in WENDELL PHILIPS, THADDEUS STEVENS, OWEN LOVEJOY, and HORACE GREELEY as sound Union aien. DISLOYALTY—means to stand by the Constitution and the Union, and be in fa vor of the writ of Habeas Corpus, Free Speech, a Free Pres., &e. &e. bilir"The man who prates about and quotes the Constitution in this great crisis' is a traitor."—WADE, in the United States Senate. The above is an extract from a speech delivered in the Senate by one of its recog nized leaders, and shows to what lengths the party now controlling that body would carry their assaults upon the rights of the people, if they dared to go farther than they have already gone in thrusting loyal men into bastiles. The time is fast com ing when the people will get their "huge paws" upon these fattened and pompous higher law vaunters, and then look out for a full settlement of old accounts !—Lan caster Intelligencer. DEVOTION TO KING JEFF. Under the authority of a proclamation from Jefferson Davis, Gen. Kirby Smith, through his Provost Marshal, has issued a general order to the rebel troops in East Tennessee, declaring that any officer who shall use contemptuous or disrespectful words against the President or authorities of the Confederate States shall be cashier ed, and any non-commissioned officer or private committing the same offence shall be court-martialed and punished. The only parallel that can be found to such a muzzling of the army, is that afforded by the acts of the Committee of Public Safety during the Reign of Terror in France.— The Richmond editors had better look out. Their turn will come next. MUTUALLY DE LIG LITED.-Th e Louisville fotcrnal says : "Nothing delights the Northern abolitionists more than the in sane ravings of the Southern rebels, and nothing delights the Southern rebels more than the insane ravings of the Northern abolitionists. The two classes are like ball and socket, or button and buttonhole —neither of them of any consequence without the other." THE history of the country will show that every public man whose career is treasured with affection by the people, was opposed to abolitionism. WEBSTER, CLAY, JACKSON, DOUGLAS, SILAS W RIGHT and MARCEY, although frequently differ ing on other questions, were a unit in their contempt for the Abolitionists. these men were living, not one 'of them wwhil stand with the Republican party in its 7 . 141ica,1 movetoen,ts.—rObserver. stir* will coat the people at least twenty millions of dollars per annum to collect the taxes under the new law.

Kenney, of the 6th Virginia Regiment, left the rail .road in pursaitof a number of Bushwhack ers, who have been committing a series of depredations at various points in Western Virginia. Capt. Showalters learned that a portion of this band, after dispersing in the hills of Virginia, were to rendezvous at Davistown, in this county, which, we are happy to say, proved untrue. The Companies left Laurel Point in Mononga lia county, on Tuesday night, and after a march of eighteen miles arrived at Davis town on Wednesday morning at 3 o'clock. The inhabitants of the little town were greatly astonished when they awoke up in the morning and found a picket of seventy soldiers armed with the unerring Minie ri fle, stationed on the hills around the town. After a careful search for the rebels, and failing to find one disloyal to the old flag, a warm breakfast was served up to them by the inhabitants, which was eagerly dis cussed by the wet and hungry soldiers.— The soldiers speak highly of toe hospitali ty of the citizens of Davistown and vicinity.
