Free White Labor.
The rallying-cry of the so-called "Republi
can" party, has been, for some years, "The in
terests of Free White Labor in contradistinc
tion from the Interests of Slave Labor." Upon
this the leaders of that party pretended to hinge
:dl their pet schemes and doctrines, such as Aid
for Bleeding Kunsus, the. Homestead Bill, tho
Tariff", and in fact every issue discussed from
the date of the first annual message of Ex-Pres
ident Pierce down to the election of Abraham
Lincoln. The poor man was to be made rich
at once on the accession of Mr. Lincoln to the
Presidency. There was to be "land for the
landless," in boundless acres, and "homes bli
the homeless," were to spring up in a manner
worthy of the days of the Alhnmbra. The
"hard Democratic times" were to cease imme
diately and every poor man's pocket was to be
lined with gold. As for an increase of taxes,
or the making of a direct levy upon the people
for the support of the Government, that was
never dreamed of, and had any man dared to
hint at it, he would have been sot down at once
as a fool or an electioneering "loco-foco."
How well the "Republican" leaders have kept
flic promises they made to the people, and how
sadly their prophecies have failed of fulfilment,
let history determine. One thing is certain, to
wit, since their clcvatioy to power they have
exhibited much greater solicitude for the condi
tion of the black man than they have for that
of the "poor white laborer" for whom tliey pro
fessed, prior to llic presidential election, to liavo
such sincere and sympathetic regard. They
have turned loose the slaves of the District of
Columbia and sent the "contrabands" taken by
the army into the Northern States, to share the
labor and wages, nay to divide the last crust,
with the poor white laboring man. They have
passed Uinuih tlm Senate of the United States,
a bill to remove all disabilities of color in car
rying tha mails, virtually making a negro eligi
ble to the olfiee of postmaster. And now tliey
ure urging the indiscriminate confiscation of
rebel property and many of them advocate
the direct emancipation of all the slaves in the
slave-holding states, tho success of either of
which propositions, would precipitate upon tho
country four millions of blacks who would have
to earn I heir living utdo Uy side with tho H'liilo
laborer and eat of the bread that is now for
him alone, or suflur death inevitably from want
aud starvation. Such is the friendship of Re
publicanism for "free white labor."
The Gazette Sustained.
Iu our paper of November 12th, 1858, we
published the following article :
"Section Fourth of Article Fiift of the Con
stitution of Pennsylvania, declares that
'JUMII county shall have at least one Itepresenta
thr, but no county hereafter erected shall be
'entitled to a separate representation until a
'sufficient number of taxable inhabitants shall be
'contained within it to entitle them to one Kep
•resentativc, agreeably to the ratio which shall
'then be established.'
This clause was contained in tho Constitu
tion of 17' JO, and forms, in the same identical
language, a part of our present Constitution.
By this provision, every county in the State,
which was established prior to 1700, is soper
ately and individually entitled to at least, one
representative. Bedford county, ;is every body
knows, was erected previous to (but date, and,
therefore, has a just and constitutional claim to
at least one representative , independent of any con
nexion with any other county. This fact being
established, the question arises, did the trainers
of the Constitution intend, when they granted
one representative to Bedford county, that Som
erset should choose that representative and not
Bedford itself? Did they intend that if Bedford
east 2008 votes for Gen. Burns, andbutlßo(i
for George W. Williams, "that Williams should
bo considered elected as that representative mere
ly because he was preterm! to Gen. Burns by
Hie people of another county? Most assuredly
not. It would have been the climax of nonsense,
to say that a county 'shall have at least one rep
resentative,' but such representative shall lie
•hostti by the people, of another county!"
When the above article was published it call
ed forth the ridicule and denunciation of a con
siderable portion of the Kepubliean press of the
State, and the. Gasotto was laughed to scorn for
daring to broach the idea of separate represen
tation for Bedford county. But what will those
journals say now, when a ltepublicun House of
ltepresentatives lias been compelled to admit
■MR. CESSNA to a seat and a Kepubliean Legis
lature has been forced to undo tho hateful tie
which bound the Somerset millstone to our necks,
and all this on the very ground set forth in'our
much abused article of three years and a half
ago ? What will the author of the legislative
gerrymander of 1857, think of his handiwork
now* Will not thoso journals and the pa
tristic Ex-Senator (who is now far away, light
ing the battles of his country) look back with u
sigh of regret when they find that after all their
fun at the expense of the Gazette's "separate rep
resentation" articles, the position assumed in
those articles has been triumphantly sustained
by tbo darkest kind of a dark hucd Kepubliean
Legislature ? 17>or fellows! We pity them. But
they should remember, hereafter, that "honesty
is the best policy" and tliat "cheating never
prospers."
DEATII OE PRIVATE JOHN SALTU. —The re
mains of private JOHN SAUIT, of Company I*,
(Capt. Filler's, of this place) 55th Regiment,
P. V., have been discovered by his comrades on
Johosse Island, S. C., whero they were left by
the rebolsafter the late fight on Edisto Island.
It was supposed, until within a fow days past,
that Saupp had been captured by the enemy
and was alive in their hands. But the sad
truth that he was killed, forces itself upon us at
last, and we are called upon to record the sacri
fice of another life from among the flower of
the youth of our county, offered up to appease
the Moloch of civil war. This gallant but ill
fated soldier was but a mere boy, yet within
his youthful heart burned tho spirit of a bravo
and patriotic manhood. Upon his heart was
graven the sentiment, " Dulce et decorum est pro
jxttria mori." May his untimely death be not
without its fruits of good to the country for
which he gave his life.
The following account of the finding of young
Saupp's body, we extract from the correspon
dence of the N. Y. Herald, of Monday:
During a reconnoissancc made bv Colonel
Fellows and three companies of the Forty-sev
enth New York regiment, on Thursday last on
Jchosso Island, the body of private John Saupp,
Company IC, Fifty-fifth regiment Pennsylvania,
killed in the recent skirmish, was discovered and
disinterred. It had been carried ott by the reb
els, who failed to bury it decently, merely cov
ering it with sand, leaving the arms protruding.
At his head was a rough pine board, upon
which was the following inscription cut with a
knife, "Yankee soldier, March '2B, 18(52." Tho
body was carried within our lines, where it re
ceived appropriate and fitting military burial.
The funeral cortege passed me upon the road
near the Episcopal church, and your readers can
only imagine the solemnity and impressiveness
of a military funeral in an enemy's count ry. The
coll'in of rough pine was borne in a regimental
baggage wagon, preceded by a platoon of
the deceased's comrades in arms with arms
reversed. Two drums tapping in mournful ca
dence with the platoon that followed gave tho
solemn pageant an air that one sees but once to
remember always. Saupp died regretted by
his comrades in arms; and I can only add, af
ter Horace, U l!efjuicscat in peace." This was
the first military funeral on the island, and has
cast a deep gloom over the entire force.
C3-MAJ. GEN. C. F. SMITH, one of the com
manders at the late battle of Shiloh,diod a few
days ago, of dysentery, at Savannah,Tenn. Gen.
Smith was one of the best officers in the army,
and his loss will not be easily supplied. He
was a Pcnnsylvanian by birth, a son of I)r.
Samuel B. Smith, of Philadelphia.
CP Our young friend, LEWIS SAUIT, of the
55th I'. Y., returned on a visit to his old home
in this place on Tuesday List. He confirms the
sad intelligence of the death of his younger
brother, JOHN SAUIT, in tho late fight at Edisto.
(ST Bead the letter in another column from
DANIEL 11. STECKMAN, formerly of this place,
and now a member of Ityce'u Conaves, TyLoo
Island, Ga. It contains a description of the
attack upon and capture of Fort Pulaski.
Uvr A letter to a friend, gives the following,
copied from the head-board of a soldier's grave
on Hilton Head Island:

ARMY CORRESPONDENCE.
Triune ISLAND, Georgia, April 15, 'G2.
Jkar Father:
It is with much pleasure that I take
my pen in hand to inform you that I mu well
at present and hope these few lines may find
you enjoying the same. I will give a little in
formation about what has been going on within
the last few days and about the taking of that
great Fort which there has been so much talk
about, and to show you that tho men that are
at the head of the Army know what they are
doing if they do l>o slow (but sure) in their un
dertaking, The Fort lam speaking of is Fort
Pulaski, which commands the mouth of the
Savannah river. On April the sth, the com
mand in tho states of South Carolina, Georgia,
and Florida changed hands. Major General
Davhl Hunter takes command and Brig. Gen.
T. \V. Sherman lias loft for VTashiugtou on the
Steamship Atlantic. This afternoon wo were
suddenly called out for general review and in
spection which kept us out with our knapsacks
and everything we had, from 3 o'clock until dork,
about four hours. April Gth, being Sunday,
we rested.' April 7th, the weather being very
nice all the boys got to work with some boards
that we carried about a mile after review on
Saturday evening, nnd we raised our tents nnd
fixed ourselves very comfortably, with the ex
pectation of spending the summer on Hilton
llead as nearly all the troops had left here and
we were doing all the guard duty ol' the Island
and our chance of staying appeared very good,
although the duty we were doing was not of
much importance and what was of any good
the negroes could do as well as lying around
and living off the government and doing nothing.
They will have toyloit now. April Bth, every
tiling fixed very comfortably and the 7Gth mak
ing themselves content to stay, when about nine
o'clock we were surprised at the orders to cook
2 days rations and to be ready to march on the
next morning. Everything was got ready; ra
tions cooked, issued out and wc were ready to
march in the meriting.
April Oth, wc got up in the morning and took
our breakfast and were ready by six o'clock to
march, at 7 o'clock wc were called in lino to
leave with our overcoats, and the gum blankets
that we were made a present of by the State
of Pennsylvania. When wc were forming the
lieg't, the clouds came up and commenced to
pour down rain and rallied till we got on tho
boat which was about one hour. Such rains
you hardly ever see at home and may judge we
got wet; there was not one dry stitch on us hut
still the boys were all in good spirits, with
hopes of bidding farewell to Hilton Head. At
9 o'clock the boat started for some place un
known to us, at about 10 o'clock it quit raining
and the clouds cleared away and the sun began
to beam down and we all got on deck so our
clothes would dry. At 2 o'clock wo came in
sight of Fort Pulaski, but there was no flag
to be seen; but when they saw us they hoisted
the rag to the top of their flagstaff.
Wc were landed shortly after wc got into the
harbor. We were brought part of tho way in
surf boats and waded part of the way and at
4 o'clock wc were on Tybec Island, Georgia,
and were marched up back of the light-house
which the rebels destroyed when they were driv
en from this Island and back of Mnrtollo Tow
er, and there, wc stayed nil night without, any
tents, as we had left them behind and had to he
down on 3 blankets and cover ourselves with
3, which kept us very warm.—
10th, we woke up and found ourselves all
mixed through one another, and did not know
whether we were going any farther or going to
stay where we were. At G o'eloek in the morn
ing Gen. Hunter sent a flag of truce to Fort
Pulaski asking them to surrender the fort when
the commander of the fort replied that he was
sent there to protect the fort, and, not to sur
render it; our messenger told liim lie would
have to surrender and he then returned to Ty
bec Island to let. Gen. Hunter know the result.
At 7 o clock and 20 minutes the first shot WHS
fired and evety minute or two wo would hear
a couple ot r-'nots and we thought they were
trying their guns. At about 10 o'clock the
rebel rag fell from tho (lag-staff and was not
hoisted any more that day. There were troops
landing all ilav, some to help work the guns and
some to cut off reinforcements, should any at
tempt to come from the mainland. In the eve
ning after some had made their beds on iho
ground orders came for us to fallin and the Bth
Michigan Kog't also. Our regiment marched
through the woods to the rear of the batteries,
and the Mich, reg't went in another direction,
also to support the batteries in case of an attack
on the rear of the batteries. When we got n
hout 3 miles from tho Tower we stopped for
the night and placed a guard. When about
getting asleep vo were aroused by some cow
ardly fellows in our company and company K,
but none of them were Bedford co. boys. They
were a couple of fellows that we got in
Camp Cameron. Vc had loaded our guns and
Co. B, was sent out to re.onnoitra, and wo lay
down again. In tho morning Co. 15 came bade,
but bad not seen anything.—April 11, we got,
in the morning, and partook of, some of Uncle
Sam's sweet cakes winch we do not get very
ottcn, as wc have, hud good fresh bread for the
last 4 months. We then started back to the
Tower and left Co. D, to take cave of that
point. The firing had lieeu kept up at inter
vals, all night, and the rebel flag raised in the
morning which foci very soon. It win then
raised on a short pole, on the fort, so that it
could not be struck very easy. A great many
of our men and others were out on the beach,
looking at the light when tho rebels tired one
shot and one shell at thcni, which fell short of
their marl:, but made them scatter and the
Gen. sent a guard down to keep the men back
so that tlicy were not exposed.
Iho batteries wore not all opened on the fort
the first day, but were this morning (the lltli)
and were fired a little stronger than the day
before, and at 2 o'clock of the 2d day the rebels
struck their colors and run up the white. But
the afternoon was so windy and the tide so high
that our men could not get to the fort before
six o'clock in the evening. Our loss is one
man killed and 2 slightly wounded. Tho rebel
loss we cannot find out, some reports say none,
others say one hundred; so that we cannot tell
nor judge with any certainty. On the 12th our
men drew two days rations and cooked them,
expecting to go hack to Hilton Head Island.
The 13th being Sunday and the wind and tide
very high and rough, so that wc lay still on the
ground without any tent* as wc had not got
ours till Sunday evening, ami the boys got to
work and pitched their tents and some preferred
sleep as wo hnd boon doing. After the tents
were up wc had a great looking camp, there
being no room, and some places very low and
stumpy, so that it was every man for himself
in putting up their tents. The companies were
all mixed up nnd officer's quartern among the
men's. Before going further I will tell what 1
saw morning- James Duff and I
went up the I teach as far as wo could get on ac
count of a run. Wo saw all the batteries and
Fort Pulaski. The Ist is Battery Stanton; it
has three 13 inch mortars; they are alKint as
large as a hogshead. You may think I am
stretching it about the mortars, but I will give
you as near the size as I can: the hole is 13
inches across and the metal around it is about
22 or 23 inches. The weight of one that I
examined was 17,113 lbs. The 2d, is Battery
Grant, 3 mortars, 3d Lyon, 3 Columbiads, 4th
Lincoln, 3 Columbiads, sth Burnside, 1 Mor
tar, Gth Sherman, 3 Mortars, 7th Ilallcck, 2
Mortars, Bth Scott, 3 Columbiads, 1 Parrott,
9th Siegcl, 2 Kiflcd cannon, 10th McClellan,
4 liiticd cannon, lltli Totten, 3 Columbiads.
The hist 4 batteries are the nearest the fort; we
saw the Fort from the McClellan battery which
is not much more than 000 yards from it. The
fort has 2 holes in it; one is large enough to
drive 4 horses in abreast and the other is near
ly as large. The 7th Connecticut reg't and
part of the 3d It. I. reg't are in it, nnd the stars
and stripes wave over Fort Pulaski. Before
the Ist of May I expect to sec the stars and
stripes wave over Savannah and Charleston.
On the 14th some 40r5 of the It. I. men
were picking the sand out of n shell in the fort,
nnd it burstod, killing 2 instantly, and 2 died
shortly afterwards. One of them had both
legs knocked off near the thighs. Our mail is
at Hilton Head but wo have not got it yet.
Nothing more at present, but remain vour son,
