BEDFORD GAZETTE. B. F. MEYERS, EDITOR. "Drifting into Anarchy." The editor of the Bedford Abolition Inquirer uks "are we drifting into anarchy 1" We an swer, yes; wc have insisted that such was the case ever since the present crazy Administra tion begun their unpnralldttl usurpations of power. We icjoico that our Abolition neigh bor has, at last, so far got hiHyes open as to see what has long been patent to every body except the radical Abolitionists. Whether his conversion to our view of this matter is because the Gazette sheds an occasional streak of light into the dark recesses of his cranium, or he cause the nine day's blindness of his editorial puppyhood have about expired, wo are unable to say. We accept the fact without inquiring too closely as to the reason; and .be once agree with him: "Wc are drifting.into anarchy." When men who are charged with no ollence can be arrested and thrown into dungeons with out warrant of law; when they are. denied the writ of habeas corpus, and the pncrMfaonstitu tional right of trial by jury, and dismissed witli without a hearing, there is danger of anar chy. When free speech is suppressed, and the press muzzled by a power more arbitrary and despotic than Napoleun Third or the Czar of Russia would dare to exercise; when edi tors are imprisoned for exposing the crimes of scoundrels in high places, and their offices gut ted by infuriated mobs of Abolitionists who proclaim that "John Drown is John the Ihptist Of the Christ that is to come," there is danger of anarchy; groat danger. His tory bristles all over with instances in which such provocation has caused the most dreadful anarchy, and history may soon have to record -another instance. Hut whilst the Inquirer man sees clearly as to tha jact of the danger, he is blind as ever as to the cause. Let us hope that a few days of vigorous blinking will open his option entirely, and enable him to sen clearly "face to fuce." In the meantime the old game of "stop thief," will not serve liiin. The time has gone by when he can make people believe that Democrats are responsible for the anarchy he so much dreads. On the contrary the country is settling down to the conviction that, if anarchy comes, it will be because the powers that be have trampled upon the Constitution and disregarded every right most sacred to FBKKMKX. Abolition Promises. During the last Presidential campaign Aboli tion editors and stump-speakers were loud mouthed and shameless in charging the Dem ocratic party with extravagance and corruption, with all their kindred evils. With brazen faced hypocrisy, they described the blessings that would follow a change of administration, E leet Lincoln, and we shall lmyc good. time?, K NO XJIUL'UIU, una mere simu lie plenty of work and high wages. Elect Lincoln, and the ex penses of government will be reduced. Elect Lincoln, and if the South secede we will send u few regiments "of wide-awakes down there and wipe out the rebels in thirty days. Elect Lincoln, and there shall he j; r.ty of money.— Such pledges they made, all over this broad land, to the honest masses whom they addressed only to delude nnd ruin. llow have these pled ges been redeemed! If by good times the fanatical horde, meant a -nation plunged to the nethermost depths of mourning and poverty, then have they well re deemed their promise. If by plenty of work and higher wages, they meant a place in the. ranks for poor men at thirteen dollars a month, where they have been butchered by thousands and tens of. thousands through the imbecility of the administration; at thu same time that political favorites amass princely fortunes by fraudulent contracts, then have they kept their promise. If, by sending a few wide-awakes to -wipe out the rebels, they meant a civil war un paralleled in the annuls of the world for its mag nitude and ferocity, then did they spenk truth. If by economy they meant that they would in crease the public expenditures from eighty mill ions to eight hundred millions per annum; that they would make gold and silver as scarce as iioncst men, and shinplasters a3 plenty as rogues iu their own party, they have kept this promise religiously. The crazy fanatics wanted a change and they have it. How do they like it ? TIIE NEW YOUK WEEKLY CAUCASIAN.—WC arc glad to find this able organ of the interests of the wliito man, as contra-distinguished from the negro-loving fanaticism of the day, again upon our table. The "Cftucasion' 1 had been prohibited from the mails, by an arbitrary and unrighteous order of the I'. O Department, for no other reason than that it exposed the objects of abolitionism and critisizcd the nuthors and the conduct of the war. ltut the ban is now removed, owing, doubtless, to the effect of tho late Democratic victories, and we advise all our readers who desire a sterling Democratic sheet from New York City, to subscribe for the "Caucasian." Its terms are as follows: Single copies, $1.50 per year. Four copies, $5.00. Ten copies,s 12.00, and one to the get ter up of the club. print this week an important procla mation of Jeff. Davis. It proposes to retaliate terribly, for the abetted unlawful course of Gen. Butler, and for the negro loving course of Lin coln's Administration. It is lamentable that the brave men now in tho field fighting our bat tles should he subjected to the terrible fate pro posed by Davis, through tho imbecility and fa naticism of our rulers. THE WHITE KACE STILI. AHEAD. —When we an nounced the fact that the with of old JohnSpriggs (colored) had been safely delivered of three chil dren, we thought that could not easily be beat en in this vicinity, but the following from tho Bedford Gazette proven that the white race is still one ahead: —The wife of Enos Davis, of St. Clair township, gave birth, a few days ago, to four children, three boys and one girl, all living at last accounts, and doing well. The editor announces in a postscript that one of the boys has since died. Quere; Does that put the races on an equality I — Fulton Demo crat. Wc presume it would in Bradford and some other Abolition districts, but not in Bedford and Fulton, where the white man's party is in the ascendancy. (From the Luzerne Union.) kimon 0 amor on' Contemplated Arrest of Senator Stark. For some weeks we have heard rumors from the councils of Simon, that among other expedients discussed to obtain"an election to the United States Senate, was no cue less buhl and start ling than to have the ndnuni.<trati>n arrest two or three democrats on some frivolous pretext, and imprison them till after the election shall take place. We confess the proposition looked to us im probable, and we gave it little thought; but the occurrences of the past week have put a differ ent face upon our opinions. Some ten days n go Simon himself passed through the valley to Seranton. As our country is not often honor ed with the visits of ex-officials of such high titles, his sudden appearance, like his sudden disappearance, was the subject of much spec ulation. Following in his wake, a few pays subse quent, nnotlier official, Surgeon General (or some other kind of a Genertil) Wilson, appear ed at Scranton and vicinity, and pretended to take testimony to implicate General Stark in improperly obtaining exemption from service of drafted men. What the offence is to be named we know not, hut as the object to be attained is a seat in the United States Senate for Simon Cameron for six years, it is but fair to presume that it will be considered suffi iently grave to warrant the suspension of the /u;beas corpus, and incar cerate Senator Stark in some has tile till after the election in January. We learn that this Wilson, who, we believe is a brother-in-law of Governor Curtin, stated at Scranton that there was a member of the House against whom the same charges had keen preferred. This explains the whole matto - . — One Senator and one member absent, wili give Cameron a clear majority. This would be cheap er than buying men, and not so difficult to per forin., Now we have a few things to say about this, for forewarned is to be forearmed. Let it, then, be distinctly understood: First. That Senator Stark cannot be taken out of Luzerne county for any such purpose, save ho be taken over the dead bodies of nine thousand 1 LmocratS. Second. If the administration, State and Na tional, are determined to persist in their revolu tionary schemes—if they are determined t > o vcrrido the voice of the people by the exercise of arbitrary power, "worthy of tyrants only," Luzerne county is a good place for them to be gin. The soil of our v alley was steeped in the warm blood of revolutionary patriots, and the despotic power in 18015. Third. We call upon all our Democratic friends tlirough the county who have not armed them selves, to do so at once, and to hold themselves in readiness to resist, at all hazards, the arrest of Senator Stark, and his removal from the county, except it ho done by regular judicial process and authority, and with luil'opportuni ty for giving bail. Fourth. A committee should bo appointed whose duty it should be, in ease of arrest, to apply immediately to a Judge fur a writ of ha lms corpus, who will have tlio courage to de clare the law of the Constitution, and protect the rights of citizens, unavved by threats or bay onets. The people will take care of hi-; decrees. That Senator Stark has committed any of- J fence at all, we do not believe. That he may have aided some poor constituent in getting ex empt, is probable; and such, in proper cases, would be his duty. Hut if he hits committed ! an offence, or been guilty of impropriety, our ! courts are open for remedy. Wc wr.ru the pow ers that be, that they must no r.gni.i pollute > the soil of Luzerne or iiu.ult its people .villi lis , arbitrary arrests. "If this be treason, make tho most of it." Let us Understand Each Other —Renew- ed Threats of Arrest in New York, The Philadelphia Press, of the '2-1 tli ult . which is presumed to speak for the Administra tion, says, in reference to New York, a fid New York particulars: "The course of the Administration in arrest ing traitors will be governed by tiie circumstan ces that controlled it in other times. If the danger should again demand the summary arrest of traitors in New York, they will be uiveste'l." If by "traitors," the Press means Democrats, or Old Line Whigs, or Conservatives, in New I ork, they will not be thus arretted, or if arrest ed, they win.

It is well to understand each other if these things be designed,—A'. I~.lmpress, A Truce Demanded. From the Few York Freeman's Journal. Is it not time to recognize, at length, the im potency of the Federal Government to do what it has no authority to do ? Were tho administra tion indeed taking caro of its citizens, and not exclusively of negroes who cannot be its citi zens, a solution of the problem would be ea sy. Peace! PEAOF.I PEACE! We cry, by tho Holy Name of Him who, at this Christmas time, was heralded by angels as bringing "peace to men of good will." Oh stop this horrid butchery of Americans by Americans! Stop this flood of woe and devo lution, by which this land is becomming most desolate I Have you accomplished anything ? Did we not forewarn you so ? If you arc so blind as not to see, you ought to trust those who have proved thoy can see. Stop this war! Wicked and foolish men, you are in despair at the pros pect before you, and yet you dare, as if you were fully sold to the demon, to ory out still : "Slay! s!ay! more blood! more carnage 1" Call a truce 1 Let us put oil the renewal of the contest, if it must lie renewed, till wc know for what we are fighting. Let. us put it off, till the vile cause of it, the abominablo tiling, New England fanaticism in tho manipulation of New York rogue-', has been put out of tho way ! Then, then only, wo may have, not a truce only, but jwice- [From the N. Y. Caucasian.] Colonizing tho Abolitionists. The Philadelphia Journal suggests the ilea of colonizing the Abolitionists instead of the negroes. The suggestion is a capital one. It is a wonder it has not already been thought of hy our sagacious Chief Magistrate. There are numerous considerations which render this project more feasible than Lincoln'splati of col onizing the negroes. In the first place, there are not so many A bolitionk ts as t here are negroes: nnd secondly, tho country coul£a great deal better alford to spare them than ohc negroes. They could also, at any fair valuation, bo ob tained at a much cheaper rate. A good, heal thy negro, down South, kept industriously at work, will raise cotton enough to clothe two or three families. lie performs a great and bcndficent duty in the drama of modern civilization. For the lack of his labor, we are, just now, suffering all tho difficulties of a paper famine. The pub lic are compelled to pay a higher price for news papers and books, and hence the freeing of the negro would bo a direct tax on knowledge. Colonize the negroes, and clothing would become so high that only the rich could afford to dress well. Woolen and silk goods would so advance in price that farmers, mechanics and working men could seldom afford to dress themselves in broadcloth, and their wives and daughters would be compelled to go back to tho linsey woolsey of their grnudmotlicrs. But no such e.\ ils would flow from getting rid of the Abolitionists. Indeed, there are obvi ous reasons why the country would be infinite ly better off without them. Ever since they started up in New Kngland, some thirty years since, they have been a pestilent, mischief ma king set of fanatics, They kept the country in continual hot water before the, war broke out, and were not satisfied until they brought that on. They have burdened the country with some tivu thousand millions of dollars of debt, which v ill tax the hones, anil muscles, and sweat of unborn millions to pay. They have been the means ov destroying cne hundred thou sand of lives, and of making a half a million of willows and orphans, whose cries of anguish now fill the lard with weeping, waiting and woe. Surely we can r.parc such aset of bloody fanatics. Then, too, these men would be no great loss to the community or th" country. About nine tenths of them arc 11011 producers, being com pose! of lawyers, doctor;, speculators, shoddy it cs, and preachers. The lattct class arc near ly all Abolitionists, and are more responsible before Clod and man for this horrible war than any other class ot' people. If every priest who heralds forth the gospel of murder, were sent, out of the country, and their places supplied by those who will preach the. gospel of Peace, Christ's gospel, who will iuy that we should not be much better off? We suggest, therefore, ilu idea, of restoring pC'Sce by colonizing Abo litionists as the cheapest, speediest, and most favorable m enns of ending the watt 1' ' s "ii po satiric to send away four millions of aegl'Oes but deport only five hundred thousand of the worst Abolitionists, and the country would be '• , • "slavery" settled to the entire satisfaction of every sen- il.le man.

U ", acting nnder the instructions of tlio Set rotary of War of the Confederate Ht:t"S of A. to Gen. 11. \V. llallcck, commander- 1 in-l.'l.iei' of tin United States Army, informing ! the latter that a report had reached this Gov-! oniinent that Win. H Mumford, 7 citizen of the' Confederate States, had been executed by the | United States authorities at New Orleans for j having pulled down the Unitod States (lag ia; that eity before it.-i occupation by the li. States \ forces, and calling for a statement of the filets, 1 with a view of retaliation if such an outrage had really been committed under (ho sanction of the authorities of the United States; And where 13, (no answer having been receiv ed to said letter,) another letter was, on the "2d of August last, 1862, addressed by Gen. Lee, 1 under my instructions to Gea. llalleek, renew- i ing the inquiries in relation to the execution oft said Mumford, with the information that in the event of not receiving a reply within 15 days, it would he assumed that the fact was true, and sanctioned by the Government of the U. States. And whereas, An answer, dated on the 7th of August. 1862, was addressed to Gen. Lee by Gen. 51. \V. llalleek, the said General-in-Chief of the armies of the United States, alleging sufficient causes for failure to make early reply to said letter of the 6th July, asserting that '"no authentic information had been received in re lation to the execution of Mumford, but mea sures will he immediately taken to ascertain the facts of the alleged execution," and promising that Gen. Lee should be duly informed thereof; A/ul whfeas, On the 28th of November, 18C2, another letter was addressed, underlay instruc tions, by Kob't. Ould, Confederate agent for the exchange of prisoners, under the cartel between the two Governments, to Lieut. Col. W. 11. Ludlow, ngent of thuU. States under said car tel, informing him that the explanation prom ised in the said letter of Gen. llalleek. of the 7th of August last, had not. yet been received, and that if 110 answer was sent to the Govern ment within 15 days from the delivery of this last, communication, it would be considered .that an answer is declined; And whereas, A letter dated on the .3d day of the present month of December, the said Lieut. Col. Ludlow apprised the said Robert Ould that the above recited communication of the 1 Oth of November had been received and forwarded to the Secretary of War of tho United Stales; 1 and whereas , this last delay of 15 days allowed I for answer has elapsed and no answer has been i received; I -4rtrf w/irretTs, In addition to the tacit admis sion resulting from the above refusal to answer, I have received evidence fully establishing the truth of the fact that the said Win# 15. Alum ford, a citizen of tho Confederacy, was actually and publicly executed in cold blood, by hang ing, after the occupation of tho city of New Orleans by tho forces under Benj. F. Butler, when said Mutnford was an unresisting and non eombatant captive, and for no offence even al leged to have been committed by him subse quent to the date of the capture of the said city; And whereas, The silence of the Govornni tit of the IJ. Stnlcs, and its maintaining of said Butler in high office under its authority forma lly mouths after his commission of an act that can be viewed in no other light, than as a dc ' liberate murder, as well n3 of numerous other outrages and .atrocities hereafter to bo mention ed, afford evidence too conclusive that the suid Government sanctions the conduct of the stud i Butler, and is determined that he shall remain ' unpunished for these crimes: Now, therefore, I, Jefferson Davis, President | of the Confederate States of America, and in! their name, do pronounce and declare the said ! Benjamin P. Butler to he a felon, deserving of capital punishment. Ido order that he shall no longer he considered or treated simply as a i public enemy of the Confederate States of A merica, but as u.i outlaw and common enemy of mankind, and that, in the event of his cap ture, tho officer in command of the capturing j force do cause him *.o be immediately executed by hanging. And I do further order, That no commission ed officer of the U. States, taken captive, shall lie released on parole, before exchange, until the said Butler shall have met with due punish- I lacnt for his crimes. .•1 nd whereas, The hostilities waged against this Confederacy, 'iy the forces of the United States, under the command <>f :*ni I lSeiijai.iin F. Butler, have borne no resemblance to suoh warfare as is alone permissible by the rales of international law, or the usage of civilization, but have l>een characterized by repeated atro cities and outrages, among the large number ot which, the following may Ire cited as examples: Peaceful an 1 aged citizens, unresisting cap tives and nim-co;nbatauts. have been eonlined at hard labor, wit.i hard chainsattached to their limbs, e nd are still so held in dungeons and for tresses: Others have been submitted to a like degra ding punishment for selling medicine to the sick soldiers of the Confederacy: The soldier;, of the United States have been invited and encouraged in general orders to in sult and outrage the wives, tbo mothers, and the sisters of our citizens : Helpless women have been torn from their j homes, aud subjected to solitary confinement, some in fortresses and prisons, and one especial ly on an island of barren sand under a tropical sun, have been fed with loathsome rations that, had been condemned as unfit for soldiers, and have been exposed to the vilest insults: Prisoners of war, who sun--adored to the na val forces of the United State;' on agreement, that they should be released on parole, have been seized and kept in close confinement: Repeated pretexts have been sought or invent ed for plundering the inhabitants of the cap tured city, by lines levied and collected under threats of imprisoning recusants tit hard labor \viiii ball arid chain. The entire population of -me'.v t means nave tc--u iv.-.ni iuu.u uutm.cn starvation by the confiscatutu of all their prop erty, and taking an oath against conscience to bear allegiance to the invader of their country: Egress from the city has been refused to those whose fortitude withstood the test, and even to lone and aged women, and to helpless children ; i and after being ejected from their homes, and robbed of their property, they have been left to Starve in the streets or .-nh:i- t on charity: The slaves have been driven from the planta tions in the neighborhood of INew Orleans until their owners would consent to slia.ro their crops with tlic Commanding General, his brother, Andrew J. Butler, and othor officers, and when such consent had been extorted the -laves have been restored to th; plantations, and there com pelled to work under 1 lie bayonets of the guard of Uii'uul Stales "oluicr?.

Ami, final!'/, The African slaves have not only been incited to insurrection by every license .end encouragement, but numbers of thetn have ac tually been armed for a servile war—.l war in i's nature far exceeding the horrors and most merciless atrocities of savages: And whereas, Tho officers under command of the said Duller have been, in many instances, active and zealous agents in the commission of these crimes, and 110 instance is known of the refusal of any one of llieui to participate in the outrages above narrated: Ami whereas, The President of the U. States lias, by public and official declarations, signified not only his approval of the effort to excite ser vile war within the Confederacy, but his inten tion to give aid and encouragement thereto, if these independent States shall continue to refuse submission to a foreign power after the first day of January next, and has thus made known that all appeal to the law of nations, tho dic tates of reason, and the instincts of humanity, would ho addressed in vain to our enemies, and that they can be deterred from tho commis sion of these crimes only by the terror of just retribution: Now, therefore, I, Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, and act ing by their authority, appealing to the Divine Judge in attestation that their conduct is not guided by passion of revenge, but that they re-1 luctiintly yield to the solemn duty of redressing, 1 by necessary severity, crimes of which their; citizens nre the victims, do issue tins my proc- ( Initiation, and by virtue of my authority as Commander-in-Chief of the armies of the Con- ; federate States, do order— First. That nil commissioned officers in the j command of said Benj. F. Butler be declared , not entitled to lie considered as soldiers engaged i in honorable'warfare, but as robbers and crini- f imils deserving death; and that they, and each t of them, be whenever captured reserved for ex- ' ei ution. St cor d. That the private soldiers and non ooma.is.-inni d ollirnrs in the army of said I'.nt ler ho considered as only the instruments used for the commission of crimed perpetrated by his orders, and not as free agents ; that thev, there fore, be treated when captured as prisoners oi war, with kindness and humanity, and he sent home oil the usual parole that they will in no manner aid or serve the United Stales in any capacity during the continuance of this war, utile, s duly exchanged. Third. That all negro slaves captured in arms he at once delivered over lo the executive au thorities of tho respective Slates to which they belong, lo be dealt with according to the laws of said States.
