BEDFORD GAZETTE. B. F. MEYERS, EDITOR. FRIDAY, lis: JANUARY IG, 1803. The Next Governor. The importance of electing an honest, up right and fearless man to the office of Governor of the State, cannot be over-estimated. The official term of Governor Curtin expires in January, 1864, and his successor will be cho sen at the next general election. It becomes us, therefore, to make an early commencement of the canvass us to the merits and claims of those citizens upon whom party conventions may probably settle as candidates for this high and responsible office. That the next Governor 'will be a Democrat is beyond doabt. Hence it behooves the Democratic people to look n bout thcin with the purpose to Ecleet as their standard bearer a man of intellect, personal in tegrity and possessing the courage and manli ness to stand up for the rights of the Common wealth, and, at any peril, to put in practical operation the principles which he will be cho sen by the people to represent. Doubtless, (as is always the case) sections and local interests will present their favorites; cliques and factions their pimps and parasites, corporations and monopolies their tools and hirelings. But the Democratic party should lop off all such un healthy excrescences. The great political or ganization which alone is able to save the wreck •of our country, cannot afford to trifle and par ley any longer for the sake of expediency. Nor is it necessniy, in the remotest degree, that it should do so. It has the confidence of the poo plo, and it will bo sustained in Its boldest en deavor and loftiest aim, if its action be intend ed for the good of the country. Let us, then, have the very best material brought forward from which to choose the next Democratic gu bernatorial candidate, and let us have tliat can didate selected without rctcrcnce to any local, corporation or class' interests, looking only to his political standing and personal fitness as the qualifications necessary to entitle him to the nomination. The times demand a bold man and n true. No mere politician will answer the purpose. No mere office-seeker can lie tolera ted. We want a man "who knows his rights, and knowing, dares maintain them;" who un derstands the duties of his office, and, appreci ating the responsibility that rests upon him. will have the nerve to discharge those duties, without fear of popular clamor, without the desire for popular favor and without affection for any peculiar interest at war with the general welfare of the State. Let the people consider and choose with deliberation. Governor's Message. Wc publish, on our first page, the message of .Governor Curtiti. It certainly compares most favorably with that ot his would-be master, the President. Besides refraining from that whole sale slaughter of the King's English so charac teristic of Mr. Lincoln's literary efforts, this Slate paper of the Governor, is prepared with some ingenuity, so far as regards its evident purpose of concealing the true condition of our finances and the state of flic country generally. It is also quite regardful of that, staple commod ity in the political market, "buncumbe," and tries to tickle the fancy of the laborer, whose bread has been taken out of his mouth by the false pretences and wicked machinations of Curtin s party. The soldier, too, has the sym pathies of the Governor, and whilst lie is wil ling to wait till Stanton gets quite ready to send home the sick and wounded, lie urges immedi ate action liy the Legislature to enable the. sol diers to vote. Home and friends are all well enough, and ought to he secured to the sick and wounded, but the vote of the army, controlled and managed by Abolition officers, is much more important to—l lis Excellency. The mes sage. says not one word about the negro or e mancipution. How prettily the Governor snubs "honest Abe!" How deftly our Executive shirks the great issue put upon the country by his own party! And what will his peculiar friends, the emancipationists, say to his silence on their fa vorite subject? \\ ill they take him to their cm braces after getting the cold shoulder from him in this most ungraceful style ? Wo shall see. But the message nocds but little criticism. It contains nothing new and repeats very little f luit is old. Our readers can "take it to pieces" without our assistance.

Comments of the Western (Opposition) Press on the Proclamation of Emanci pation. liio Chicago 2tines J*nys: "tub deed! Jhe deed is done—the deed which unites the people of tlio S<mth forever in their rebell ion, and divides the people of the North as to the further prosecution of the war—the deed which converts the war from a constitutional contest for the integrity of the Union to an un constitutional crusade for the liberation of three millions of negro barbarians and their en franchisement as citizens—the deed which de stroys the last hope of the preservation of the old Government and inaugurates a future dark, uncertain and dreary—the deed which is as un warranted in military as it is in civil law, a gainst the purposes of which the humanity of Christendom will protest, and to avert the con sequences ot which European powers will in terfere. The deed is done. The craziest abo litionism has achieved the very acme of its de sires. The end for which the war was com menced by the dominant party —the separation of the Union and an armed anti-slavery cru sade—has been reached. It is not a deed with out a name. It will be known in all history as the most wicked, atrocious and revolting deed recorded in the annals of civilization." The Indianapolis (Ind.J Sentinel closes an im portant article as follows: "If this act of usurpation passes unrebuked, then we may bid farewell to constitutional lib erty. The constitutional guarantees of person al rights and personal liberty will not ha worth the parchment upon which they are written.— It is for the people to say Whether they will re main free by repudiating this usurpation of pow er, or by yielding to it, surrender personal lib erty and the right of self government." The Louisville (Ivy.) Democrat remarks: "The President's Proclamation lias come to hand at last. We scarcely know how to ex press our indignation at this flagrant outrage of all constitutional law, all human justice, all Christian feeling. Gar very sotil revolts at con templating an atrocity so heinous, and the feel ing is intensified at the indelible disgrace which it fixes upon our country. To think that we, who have been the loremost in the grand march of civilization, should bo so disgraced by an imbecile President as to be made to appear be fore the world as the encouragcr of insurrec tion, lust, arson, murder! The peoplo have condemned this in advance, and the President has raised a storm that will overwhelm him.— It is not in the rebellious States he has to fear most, hut the true, loyal States will not suffer their fair fame to lie stained by him. It is not enough that Kentucky is exempt from its force; not enough that it is ineffectual even in the State it has reference to. The people can not, in any State, bear to be so slandered by one who usurps authority." 1 In another article it says: "But we need not discuss the absurdity.— After constitutional liberty lias been so long es tablished—after it lias licen reduced to a science 1 —here comes a man supposed to have honesty and capacity enough to ho elected President of a Government of strictly limited powers, as suming unlimited despotic, authority over States, property and persons. This spectaelo will as tonish llie civilized world. Our statesmen all along supposed that States were real units, im portant, indispensable parts of the Union, uid that the reserved rights of the States were as important as the rights of the Federal Govern* mcnt. We are now startled with the announce ment that the I'resident of this limited Govern ment, who only has power to use force to exe cute the laws of the Union, is, by this war pov er, able to absorb all the powers of government. Upon the same principle he can dispense with Congress and with all State power. "If our fathers really made such a Govern ment. us this, they did it by mistake; they did n't intend it. Their shades would startle and quake, at the developments of the firstof Janua ry, 18(511." The Columbus [Ohio] Statesman says: 'tßut we have not time to dwell upon the in consistencies and absurdities of this proclama tion. Henceforth the war, which was avowed ly commenced for the restoration of the Union and the maintenance of the Constitutional rights of all the States unimpaired, is to be, accord ing to this Executive decree, a war for the maintenance of negro freedom. For that pur pose the army and navy of (he United States are to be employed; the resources of the coun try are. to be taxed, and the lives of our citizens sacrificed for the sake ol securing the freedom of negto slaves. "If anything were wanting to crown the folly and infamy of the present administration, this proclamation caps the climax. It will lie difficult for it to linda lower deep." Not less than one thousand papers nnd or gans of public opinion in the loyal States, will hold similar language. The Cincinnati Enquirer lias the following Comments: "In Lis Emancipation Proclamation tiio President Ims attempted to do that which in the most solemn and public manner lie had declar ed that he did not intend, and had no right to do under the Constitution. Upon his own promises and declarations—upon his own vol untary interpretation of the paramount law of tiio land, he stands condemned. This no one, who has any regard for his own reputation tor veracity,can dispute. The President is, therefore, wrong, either in affirming that lie had no right to interfere with slavery, or in interfering with it ; and this even his most zealous supporters must per force confess. "If the nine States in which the President has declared slavery to be abolished are parts of the Union, the only power which the Presi dent lias within them is that which is given by the Constitution. The only ground upon which the warcan bo justified, and the only one thus far set up for its jurisdiction, is that they are parts of the Union, and that their people, in a state of disobedience to the Constitution, must be made to submit to its authority. As members of the Union, slavery is entitled to remain in tact therein, by the fact that the Constitution gives neither the President nor any branch of the Government any power over the domestic relations of the. people. "If the nine States are out of the Union, the war is a war of conquest, carried on by one in dependent nation against another. Wars of con (pi est arc of more than doubtful justice, and the sober judgment of mankind lias always been against the State which, taking advantage of the supposed weakness of another, has sought to subdue it. In respect to such wars, there are rules of conduct which national honor de mands should be observed. One of the points niL'dc in the Declaration of Independence— and properly made—against the King of Great Britain, ivas that lie had 'excited domestic in surrections.' That which was an act of unex ampled barbarity in a King, is it any the less so when perpetrated by a President?" Why Oppose the Proclamation? The question is often asked by l.epublicans, "why do you oppose President Lincoln's Proc lamation of freedom fov the slaves ? As it is sometimes asked in cana'or, wo make a candid reply: 1. The Proclamation is it dangerous assump tion of power by the President t. He lias not a shadow of authority, either as a "war measure," or otherwise, to proclaim the freedom of the slaves in the States. They arc property held under State laws—held by loyal men as well as rebels. The President lias precisely the same authority to issue a Proclamation declaring that all property has ceased to exist ami nliali not hereafter be recognized. He can no more de prive the loyal men of the rebel Slate.) of their slaves, than of their horses, and cotton, and lands. His constitutional power is the same in both cases and is entirely -wanting in bath. The claim to exorcise it. is but another of the dangerous usurpations of Executive power put forth under the false pretense that the Presi dent may do aw/t/iinff to suppress tho liebeliion. But if the President had constitutional j authority to issue and enforce an Emancipation j Proclamation, its exercise would tend to I strengthen, rather than suppress, the rebellion, i and would, therefore lie unwise. The proela- j ination give? vigor to the war in every rebel! State, !))• strengthening the hands of the insur- ! gents, crushing loyal men, and concentrating ; the whole population in deadly hostility to the i I inion. It interposes a barrier to peace, and a restoration of the Constitution and the Federal authority. 11? direct effect —if not its intent— is to prevent a return to the Union as it was. The- purpose, on the part of the Abolitionists and the President, is to say that no Slate shall now be permitted to lay down its arms and re turn to the Union, except on the condition of changing its domestic institutions and local lafcs, and abolishing slavery. Will any State consent to such an humilit&ting and unconstitu tional exaction, so long as it lias a soldier to send to the held ? Is it reasonable to expect—un der such a policy—any end of the war, except by the subjugation and extermination of the Southern whites ! Does not the President's pol icy entirely repudiate a restored Union, and look to the alternative of extermination or sep aration I Evidently the President and the rad icals. by whom lie is controlled, have abandon ed all idea of simply returning to the Constitu tion and the Union of our fathers. Aboli tion of negro slavery, or a division of the coun try, is now their proclaimed purpose. The proclamation means this, and nothing more or less. ! Therefore, both on the score of power and expediency, there arc ample reasons why loyal and sensible men should regret and oppose the President's proclamation.— Albany Argus. Are We Fighting for a Debt? j Ts RO, we shall be gratified in a proportion not easily computed, and to an amount not ] readily to bo comprehended. Years ago the I enormous debt of Great Britain startled the ty j ro in arithmetic—the next generation are in • the broad way of having something equally a mazing to compare with i( in our own. For if the debt of England is $-1,000,000,000, at an average of about 8 per cent, interest, or $1 20,000,000 a year, our own was,on the first of July last, taking the message as authority, in round numbers .$000,000,000 To which the Com. of Ways, and Means purpose to add: Honda (20 years G per cent). . $900,000,000 Treasury notes to be funded. . 140,000,000 Treasury notes at 0.17.1 per ct. interest T 300,000,000 Legal tender (greenbacks). .. . 300,000,000 Shinplasters 50,000,000 In all, to Ist July 1803 2,21)0,000,000 which at an average interest of per cent., the most, favorable estimate that can by any possibility be made of the rate, amounts to the fabulous sum of $100,000,000 (one hundred and six millions) a year, sufficient to purchase the contents, land, men, women and chattels oi a Southern state every half year. War is truly an expensive luxury for the people, if it is glori ous to tiiose individuals who use their official positions to turn a penny for friends," like Mr. Grimsley, Andrew J. Butler, Gen. Curtis or Simon Stevens. Gon. Lee's Address to the Army. liEAUQUAimats AHMY OF NoirniKKN- VA., / December 31, 1862. J General Order Mo. 138. The general commanding takes this occasion to express to the officers and soldiers of the ar my his high appreciation of the fortitude, valor, and devotion displayed by them, which, under the blessing of Almighty God. have added tlie victory of Fredericksburg to the long list of their triumphs. An arduous march, performed with celerity ' under many disadvantages, exhibited the disci pline and spirit of the troops and their eager ness to confront the foe. The immense army of the enemy completed its preparations for the attack without interrup tion, and gave battle in its own time, and on ground of its own selection. It was encountered by loss than twenty thou sand ot this brave army, and its columns, crush ed and broked, hurled back at every point with such fearful slaughter that escape from entire destruction became the boast of those who had advanced in lull confidence of victory. That, this great result was achieved with a loss in point of numbers, only augments the ad miration with which the commanding general regards the prowess of the troops, and increa ses his gratitude to Iliin who hath given us the victory. The war is not yet ended. The enemy is still numerous apd strong, and the country demands of the army a renewal of its heroic efforts in her behalf. Nobly lias it responded to her call in the past, and she will never appeal in vain to its courage and patriotism. The signal manifestations of Divine mercy that have distinguished the eventful and glori ous campaign of the year just closing, give as surance of hope that will insure the safety, peace and happiness of our beloved country, and add now lustre to the already imperishable name of j the Army of Northern Virginia. " 11. E. LEE, General. Message of the Governor of Kentucky. LOUISVII.LE, Jan. o.—The Legislature of Kentucky met at Frankfort yesterday. Gov ernor Bobison's Message recommends that Ken tucky reject the President's proclamation, and protests against any interference with her State policy as unwarranted by the Constitution He thinks the proclamation giving freedom to Jnf slaves in the rebellious States inflicts upon Kentucky a fatal though indirect blow. He. says that the saddest result of the Proc lamation will be to fire the whole South with one burning mass of inexhaustible hate, and destroy all hope of restoring the Union, which is only possible by adhering to the Constitution as it was; and, further, that in view of this most alarming act of military necessity, lie ad vises tho Legislature to place on record their protest against the Proclamation. Tnr. Box AFIAIXST THE COMET —Wo have it at last! The President proclaims freedom to all tho slaves whom lie cannot roach, and who cannot reach him 1 recommending them, how ever, to make a virtue of necessity, and keep quiet. All the slaves in Georgia, South Car olina, &e., where the Confederates are undistur bed by the presence of Federal armies, are pro nounced free! Tliev are really free, if there is any truth in the Proclamation; and yet wc suppose, they "don't see it," and indeed lor that matter, we don't either. The slaves in Missou ri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Man-land, and parts l)i' Virginia and Louisiana, where we have la.:- < kriicicp, and where the Proclamation might be j Dade effective, are not pronounced free! Mr. ' Lincoln virtually says. "Where I can't reach | the slave to help him, [ will help him; whore 1 i tan help liim, 1 won't." In other words, those | tiro declared forever free whom circumstances | more powerful than the President declared to j he forever slaves : while those whom circum stances favor, as to freedom, are left in their bondage! What philanthropy! And then, there is another view to be taken pf the matter. Tho President lias been assu ring t lie people of the. slave States, with appa rent sincerity, that bv giving liberty to their inegroes they would greatly benelit themselves; Indeed, that lie was almost solely actuated, in Ibis anti-slavery crusade, by a desire to improve ■their condition. Yet when the time for action comes, he confers his blessing upon tlic disloyal and withholds It from the loyal slave States! But no matter. While the Proclamation reach es but few and very small districts over which we are now exercising civil or military jurisdic tion, it plainly declares that every advance of our armies shall be for the negro, and the ne groc's benefit. Except so far as the war is de fensive, it is henceforth to be a negro war 1 Ought not the anti-Union-ncgro-worsliippers to be expected to do the rest of the lighting ? Is not. this just tho time /or Greeley's nine hundred thousand to flock to the field, and allow all those Democrats whom this Greeley every day denounces as traitors, to come home ? This is a great nation. We have a great President. We are doing a great business.
