EARNEST, } Vig.Com. o. MCGirk, ) Feb. 23, 1862. The Present Dividing Line Between Political Parties. Ever since the gloomy period when the bale ful plant so successfully transferred from Exeter Hall to the congenial soil of New England, be gan to bear its first fruits in the unhappy con troversy which resulted in the establishment of the Missouri Compromise, the people have been taught by their wisest and best statesmen to fear and abhor the abolition of negro slavery in the •Southern States. Not only did the prominent leaders of the Democratic party, (which lias al ways been radical even to the very limits of the Constitution,) array themselves in opposition to the encroachments upon local and State rights threatened by the Abolitionists, but the leading minds of the Whig party (which not so rad ical as to the freedom of the masses and the dis tribution of the powers of the G ovemment) were also found in determined hostility to the purpo ses proclaimed by the disciples of WILBEBFORCE. But owing to the defilement of the pulpit, and the degradation of the rostrum by the senseless zealots who waged tliis new crusade of Abolition, the little knot of New England agitators soon increased its numbers till they were counted by thousands and hundreds of thousands. Final ly, after WEBSTER and CLAY had left the scene, and the Whig leaders could no longer discern the star of the Constitution by which their prede cessors had steered the ship, the grand old organ ization which had been tho pride and the hope of the conservatives,went down,a hopeless wreck, driven to pieces by the storm of the anti-slavery agitation. The pirate wreckers then gathered around the dismantled hulk, picked up what floating timber they could find, —no matter if it was even an old whiskey cask thrown overboard from the good ship DEMOCRACY—and lashing the incongruous remnants together,they ventured out to sea under a flag pledged to the extermination of "those twig relics} of barbarism, Polygamy and Slavery." Meanwhile the Democracy stood firm for the Constitution and the rights guaran teed to the people of all the states under that sacred instrument. For years they battled suc cessfully with their new and impetuous adversa ry, but, at last, through the instrumentality of a political Grecian Ilorse covered over with Tariff schedules and pictures of homes for the homeless, and drafts of lands for the landless, the long siege of the Constitution was success ful, the walls of the Union were broken down, and civil war reared its horrid front from one end of the country to the other. Tho sudden ness with which the strife began, and the immi nence of the danger in which the Federal Gov ernment was placed, constrained some of our statesmen from attempting, at the outset, to di vert the conduct of the war from the direction in which its authors in the North desired it to rage. But the masses of the Democracy, fixing their gaze steadfastly upon tho Constitution, re solved to steer to the last by that polar star of our national firmament, and determined that neither threat nor entreaty, danger, nor the hope of reward should induce them to disregard that safe and certain light in the hour of storm and peril. Soon, after a short season of persecution and oppression, people of other parties came to their side, the General-in-ehief was found to bo of their opinion, and the President himself di vested his mind of its former political bias, re moved his Abolition Secretary and appointed a Democrat in his stead. And, now, the dividing line between political parties, is broadly and lioldly defined. The Democrats and consorva ■iives are in favor of au early termination of the war and tho restoration of the Union with all the rights of all the states under the Constitu tion guaranteed and protected as if no rebellion had ever taken place. On tho other hand, the Radical Republicans or Abolitionists insist .that slavery is the cause of the war, and, therefore, slavery must be uprooted. It is the old question which we have discussed in successive Presiden tial campaigns, divested only, on the part of the Abolitionists, of the tinsel and gauzework which formerly disguised its hidoousness, Mokhanna like, from the view. It is now nothing but nude, crude AWition, in all its native deformity. On which side will the people stand at this late day ? Will they decide for the Union and the tolera tion of negro slavery, or for Disunion and Abo litionism 1 <srWe publish in common with our contem poraries generally, as a matter of news, the mes sage of the Rebel President. t-yTherc seems to be some concealment a bout our loss at the siege of Fort Donclson. The rebel loss in killed and wounded is put down at 1600. General McClcrnand's division of out army lost upwards of three hundred killed, a bout 1000 wounded and 150 missing. We have seen no statement of the loss in Gen. Smith's division. There is some prospect of an overhauling of the Congressional apportionment made for this state last Winter. It turns out that Penn sylvania is entitled to '24 instead of 23 represen tatives and, therefore, the log-rolling of the Re publicans during last session, will be investigat ed, and we hope, corrected in accordance with the dictates of common decency and honesty. gyNeither A. S. Johnston nor Bushrod .Johnston were taken prisoners at Fort Doncl son. It seems that Floyd and Pillow cut their way through our lines after a most desperate struggle. —Gov. Harris, of Tennessee, hits not ordered the Tenncsscans (as reported) to lay down their arms.—Conflicting it-ports prevail in regard to the alleged Union feeling in Ten nessee. ey'Plio weather lias been very variable, so far, during the present Winter. Snow, sleet, hail, rain, wind, sunshine (a very slight sprink ling of the last) seem continually to vie with each other for tho mastery. On the mountains the "natives" are occasionally entertained by the music of a lively thunder storm. Even the ele ments S"cm to be engaged in civil feuds. K-yWe have been neglectful in not referring to the original matter which for some- weeks past has graced the first page of our paper. We have recently published a poem and romance from the pen of DR. C. N. HICKOK, of this place, which have been admired very much by tho readers of our paper. This week wo give some verses, entitled "Nature's Similitudes," written by a young friend whose modesty, we think in this case, cheats him of the praise he deserves for his excellent effort. The "School master Abroad" has also "broken out in a now place" and is quite entertaining. Dutch is becoming quite popular in our current literature. A port of considerable merit (Rev. 11. llarbaugh) has writ ten several very fine poems in this devoted lin go. We observe, also, that the local of the Ilarrisburg Patriot ij- Union, gets up 6omo, of bis "items" in the peculiar vernacular. We studied it (the vernacular) from tho age of 12 months till we were seven years old, when wo fell into the hands of a pedagogue who intro duced us to the English Alphabet in a venera ble copy of the "United States Spelling Book," and from that date to this we have been rather remiss in the cultivation of our mother tongue. But if we ever meet the Dutch poet of Leba non, or the Dutch editor of Ilarrisburg (by the way lie's the first Dutchman named Jones we ever heard of) wo will give our opinion, in choi cest Pennsylvania Dutch, cither orally, or in wri ting, of the performances made by them sever ally.

Congress having passed an act which gives to this State an additional member of the House of Representatives, the duty of re-arranging the districts will devolve upon the legislature at the present session. The Senate yesterday resolved to appoint a committee of three to revise the apportionment of last session. In the House ot Representatives a similar resolution was in troduced by Mr. Armstrong, and an amendment offered by Mr. Cessna, providing for the appoint ment of a committee of seven to report a bill apportioning the State into congressional districts for the next ten years. Action was then post poned on the resolution and the amendment. Tho amendment of Mr. Cessna indicates tho proper courso for the Legislature, to pursue. The apportionment of last year was premature, and is withal such a disgraceful gerrymander of the State that no amount of tinkering ran put it into a decent or respectable shape. The Ix-g --islaturc seems to have. l>oeu influenced by but one idea in arranging this apportionment, and that was to make as few Democratic districts and as many Republican districts as the nature of tho material would warrant. No sort of respect was paid to the ratio. This ratio for twenty-throe members of Congress—the number to which it was then supposed the Stato was en titled—wus 126,505. Ouo district contains a population of 158,"2H1—oxcccdiug tiio required ratio by 81,918 i while another district has a population of but 101,-127 —or 21,936 less than the ratio. Five districts hnvo an aggregate pop ulation of 708,552 ; nnd live other districts a population of 557,104, the former exceeding tho latter by 151,481, or more than sufficient popu lation to form another district, and more than any district contains witli a single exception. Montgomery county is divided into three parts; one part attached to llucks county nnd Certain wards in Philadelphia, another part to Berks, and the third part to the counties of Chester and Delaware. A single township is violently torn from Northumberland county and attached to York and Dauphin, and other territorial and numerical deformities characterize this misshapen tiling called an apportionment. The Legislature cannot carve out an addition al district without commencing de novo and ma king another apportionment. Notlring can rem edy the radical injustice and inequality of the act as it stands, but an entire re-arrangement of the districts, and we trust that tho House of Representatives will not permit this occasion to pass without tearing to pieces the abominable work of the last Legislature. The Treasury Note Bill. The United States note bill has received the President's signature, and become a law. The most important of the Senate's amendments, that making the interest on all the obligations of the United States payable in coin, is a part of the bill as it finally passed. The duties on imports are sot apart as a fund for the payment of this interest, and the creation of a sinking fund for the liquidation of the principal. The hill au thorizes the issue of a hundred and fifty millions of notes in addition to those now in circulation ; but it contemplates the withdrawal of these last from circulation, while the new ones may be re peatedly paid out after being received for gov ernment ilues. The old notes and specie will a lone be received in payment of duties on impor ted goods : tho new ones are receivable for ev ery other kind of government dues, anil are a le gal tender for the payment of all public and pri vate debts except interest on government notes and bonds, and dues at the eustom house. It will bo seen that the now currency has some advantages over the notes of the suspended banks so long as the suspension of specie pay ments continues. They can be used for the pay ment of taxes, for which bank notes cannot, and they will legally discharge all private debts, Being convertible into interest-bearing bonds, they will facilitate the funding of the public debt, and through this channel and the payment of taxes a large amount of them will be con stantly withdrawn from circulation to be as con stantly returned into it by the Government.— Patriot ij- Union. | Fkom the South — Call for Troops—J Draft I Threatened. —Louisville, Feb. 27.—The New | Orleans Ilee confesses to the magnitude of the I calamity at Fort Donelson, and condemns the ! neglect, and apathy of the Confederate Govern ment in not sending enough troops westward. It says a general call to arms has become an in evitable necessity. The Memphis Arahnche of the 22d says that the Governor of Alabama has called for twelve regiments from that State, and if not forthcom ing other means will lie used to fill the requisi tion. The Governor of Georgia calls also for twelve regiments from that State, and says if tho requi sition is not filled by the 4th of March a draft will be ordered. A company near Kingston, IJoston county, is preparing to turn out one thousand pounds of salt|>etrc from a saltpetre cave in that vicinity. Tho peach and plum trees in Home, Georgia, are blooming, and the wheat crop is promising anil almost too forward. Cotton cards are being manufactured in Daw son, Georgia. Jeff, Davis's Message. To the Senate and House of llepreeentatires of the Confederate States. In obedience to the Constitutional provision requiring the President from time to time to give to Congress information of the state of Confed eracy, and recommend for their consideration such measures us he shall judgo necessary and expedient, I have to communicate.that since tho message at tho last session of the Provisional Congress, events have demonstrated that the Government had attempted more than it had power successfully to achieve. Ilonee in the effort to protect by our arms the whole terri tory of the Confederate States, seaboard and in land, wo have been so exposed as recently to encounter serious disasters. When tho Con federacy was formed, the States comprising it were, in the peculiarcharueter of their pursuits, and a misplaced confidence in theft- former as sociates, to a grentextent, destitute of the means for the prosecution of the war on so gigantic a scale as that to which it has attained. The workshops and artists were mainly to he found in the Northern States, and one of flic first du ties which devolved upon this Government was to establish the necessary manufactories, and in the meantime to obtain by purchase from a broad, as far as practicable, whatever was re quired for the public defense. No elfbrt has been spared to effect both these ends, and though the results have not equalled our hopes, it is be lieved that an impartial judgment will, upon full investigation, award to the various depart ments of the. Government, credit for having done all which human power and foresight cn \ ahlcd them to accomplish. Tho valor and devotion of the people have not only sustained the efforts of tho Government, but have gone far to support its deficiencies. The active state of military preparations among the nations of Europe in April last, the date when our agents first went abroad, interposed unavoidable delays in the procurement of arms, and the want of a navy has greatly impeded our efforts to import military supplies of all sorts. I havo hoped for several days to receive the official reports in relation to our discomfiture at Roanoke Island and the fall of Fort Donel son. They have not yet reached me, and lam therefore unable to communicate to you such information of past events, and consequences re sulting from them, ;is would enable mc to make recommendations founded upou the changed condition which they have produced. Enough is known of the surrender of Roanoke Island to make us feel that it was deeply humiliating, however imperfect may have been the prepara tion for defence. The ho[>e is still entertained that our reported losses at. Fort Donelson have been greatly exaggerated, inasmuch as I am not oidy unwilling but unablo to believe that a large army of our people have surrendered without a desperate effort to cut then way through the investing forces, whatever may have been their numbers, and to endeavor to make n junction with other divisions of the annv. But in the absence of that exact information, which can only bo afforded by official reports, it woul 1 he premature to pass judgment, and my own is reserved, as I trust yours will bo, until that in formation is received. In tho meantime, stren uous efforts hnvo been made to throw forward reinforcements to the armies at positions threat ened, and I cannot doubt the bitter disappoint ments wo have borne, by nerving the people to still greater exertions, will speedily secure re sults more accordant with our just expectations, and as favorable to our cause, us those which marked the earlier period of the war. The reports of the Secretaries of War and Navy will exhibit the mass of resources for the conduct of tho war, which wc have been ena bled to accumulate, notwithstanding tho very serious difficulties against which we have con tended. They aft'ord cheering hope that our resources, limited as they were at tho beginning of the contest, during its progress, became de veloped to such an extent as fully to meet our future wants. The policy of enlistment for short terms, against which I have steadily con tended, from the commencement of the war, has, in my judgment, contributed, iu no imma terial degree, to the recent reverses which we have suffered, and even now renders it difficult to furnish you an accurate statement of the army. When the war first broke out, many of our people could with difficulty be persuaded that it would be long or serious. It was not deemed possible that anything so insane as a persistent attempt to subjugate those States could ho made; still less that the delusion could so far prevail as to give to the war the vast pro portions which it has assumed. The people, incredulous of along war, were, naturally averse to long enlistments, and the early legislation of Congress rendered it impracticable to obtain volunteers for a greater period than twelve months. Now that it has become probable that the war will be continued through a series of years, our high-spirited and gallant soldiers, while generally roenlisting, are, from the fact of having entered the service for a short term, compelled in many instances to go home to make | necessary arrangements for their families during their prolonged absence. The quotas of now i regiments for the war, called for from the dif-1 ferent States, are in rapid progress of organiza tion. The whole body of new levies and ro.-on-1 listed men will probably be ready in the ranks | within the next thirty days. But, in the moan- ! time, it is exceedingly difficult to give an accu rate statement of the number of our forces in I the field. They may in general terms be state 1 tit four hundred regiments of infantry, with propor tionate forces of cavalry- tvnd artillery, the de tails of which will be shown by the report of the Secretary of War. I deem it proper to ad vert to the fact that the process of furloughs and re-enlistment in progress for the last month had so far disorganized and weakened our forces us to impair our ability for successful defence, but I hereby congmtulatc you this evil, which J had foreseen and was powerless to prevent, may now be said to bo substantially at an end, and that we shall not again, during the war, be exposed to' seeing our strength diminished by this fruitful cause of disaster—short enlistments. The people of the Confederate States being principally engaged in agricultural pursuits, were unprovided at the commencement of hos tilities, with ships, ship yards, materials for ship building or skilled mechanics and seamen, in sufficient numbers to make the prompt creation of a navy a practical task, even if the required appropriations had been made for the purpose. Notwithstanding our very limited resources, however, the report of the Secretary will exhibit to you a satisfactory proportion in preparation, and certainly of the near completion of vessels of a number and class, on which we may con fidently rely for contesting flic vaunted control of the enemy over our waters. The financial system devised by the wisdom of your predecessors has proved adequate to supplying all the wants of the Government, not withstanding the unexpected and very large in crOjjise of expenditure, resulting from a great augmentation in the necessary means of defence. The report of the Secretary of the Treasury will exhibit the gratifying fact that wo have no floating debt; that the credit of the Government is unimpaired ; and that tlic total expenditure for the year has been, in round numliers, one hundred and seventy millions of dollars, less than onc-tlnrd of the sum wasted l>v the ene my, in his vain effort to conquer us; less than the value of a single article of export—the cot ton crop of the year. The report of the Postmaster-General will show the condition of that department to In steadily improving, its revenue increasing, and already affording assurances that it will be self-sustained at the date required by the Con stitution, while affording ample mail facilities for the people. In the Department of Justice, which includes the Patent Office and Public Printing, some legislative provisions will IK* required, which will be specifically stated in the report of the head of that department. I invito the attention of Congress to the du ty of organizing a Supreme Court of the Con federate States, in accordance with the mandate of the Constitution. I refer you to my message, communicated to the Provisional Congress in November last, for suck further information touching the condition of public affairs as it. might be useful to lay be fore you, the short interval which has clasped since not having produced any material changes in that condition other than those to which ref erence has already been made. * In conclusion, I cordially welcomo the rep resentatives who, recently chosen by the peo ple, are fully imbued with their views and feel gigs, and can so ably devise means to the. need ful provisions for the public service. I assure you of my hearty co-operation in all your efforts for the common welfare of the country.
