One Extreme Begets Another. A serious riot occurred at a Union meeting in Brown connty, Indiana, on Saturday, by which one man lost his life. It appears that a few members of the Knights of the Golden Cir cle made a raid upon the meeting, armed with guns and revolvers and had a melee. Another affair of t!>e same kind occurred in Dnnville, Indiana, the same day, in which one man was mortally wounded and several others less seri ously. Indiana appears to be the headquarters of the belligerent portion of the Knights.—A. Y. Herald. Our readers can testify that we have frequent ly warned the Administration and the political party which gives it an unconditional support, that, if they did not desist from the lawless practices and violent measure* with which they have undertaken to reduce the people of the North iuto an unwilling acquiescence in their peculiar way of thinking and acting, riot, bloodshed and anarchy would be the inevitable result. If there was any reason to doubt this in the beginning, there is no such reason now. Revolution in the States which adhere to the Union has actually begun, and to thoso who watch the current of popular feeling, it must be apparent that nothing but the wisest coun sels and the most prudent management on the part of the Administration can avert the im pending storm. The true friends of the Union can now sec to what a pandemonium of civil trouble, Abolitionism is about to drag the coun try. They can see that if the Administration is determined to persist in its violations of the Constitution and its high-hauded outrages upon the rights of the State and of the citizen, thero will be civil war, and finally, anarchy in the North. They can see that the extreme mea sures to which the Administration has resorted for the purposo of coercing the people into its support, are inducing extreme measures on the part of those who are determined not to be Coerced. And they can see, therefore, the ne cessity of taking such party action as will cause the Administration to recede from its unconsti tutional positions and as will bring it back to a proper respect for the rights of the people and a decent regard for the welfare of the country. Abolition mobs, instigated in many cases by Federal officials, arbitrary arrests of citizens in nocent of any crime, tbe perversion of the war from its legitimate purpose as originally avow ed by the Administration itself, together with the numerous and flagrant infractions of the Constitution by the President and Congress, have engendered a feeling in the North that is now beginning to show itself in retaliation for the wrongs endured by the people. Let not the Administration heap more fuel upon the flame just bursting forth. Let it Be the desire, as it is the duty, of every good citizen to prevent the ebullition of civil strife; but let Mr. Lincoln and his advisers, likewise, show their anxiety to preserve the peace, by returning to their al legiance to the Constitution and their sworn ob ligation to obey as well as execute the laws. Retaliation. One of the purposes of those precious insti tutions which the stay at borne, chimney-corner war men are now trying to establish in different parts of the country, yclept "Union Leagues," to the proscription of Dcmocratsan business.— The Philadelphia League lias been busy at this kind of work ever since its organization. Dem ocratic merchants and dealers in that city, have been singled out and marked for sacrifice, bv this new band of Jacobius. Wo know this to be a fact. Now, we say, since these malicious fellows have determined to draw this broad line of division between themselves and tho Democ racy, let us fight them with their own wenpons. When Democratic merchants visit Philadelphia for the purpose of purchasing goods, let them inquire, before buying any where, what city mer chants belong to the "Union League," let them make a list ot those who give their adhcrance to this malignant organization, and, then, let them give all such a wide berth when they make their purchases. If Democrats arc to be proscribed in business, because of their politi cal opinions, it is but fair that they should re fuse to give their patronage to those who arc putting the bloodhounds upon their track. We hopa that this suggestion will be acted upon by ovary Democratic merchant in the State, who buya his goods in Philadelphia. Cannot the Eetttvag Journal or The Jjge give the public tho names of the merchants who are willing to pro scribe their fellow-citizens for opinion's sakef CrWfi call attention to the advertisement of * B. HagiU, in ibis issue. Mr. Magill is an industrious and enterprising young man and the patronage of the public. WWa call attention to the school articles on Mi itfyjftl t*g* The report by Mr. Geyor, is very able and the other articles are, also, just and proper. mTh-re is no late war news. We have not yet nsceived an official report of th bom bardment of Charleston. A Difference. It seams that after*ll the loud talk of the Ab olitionists in favor of tho right of Boldiers to vote, they mean only such soldiers as will vote the Abolition ticket. They think it all right when tho Administration sends a couple of brigades of "picked" voters, from tho Army, to Connecticut, to defeat tho Democracy; but when a poor, crippled Democratic soldier comes home on furlough, they deny him the privileges of citizenship, on the ground that he belongs to "the government!" Read the following letter, written to the editor of this paper by a respect able and worthy citizen of Bedford county, who had the misfortune to be drafted, and sec for yourselves the proof of the sincerity of Aboli tionists when they prate about tho right of sol diers to vote: ,Bedford co., Pa., f April 18th, 1803. 1 B. F. MKTKUS, ESQ.: DEAK SIK :—You will find one dollar enclo sed; please enterme a creditonray subscription. I have been looking for tlioso "good times" the Abolitionists promised; providing Abraham was elected. Alas ! the promise has failed, anil I being one of the drafted fellows, received my "good times" by getting my right hand crippled for life and came homo for the purpose of get ting it healed, which has taken 3 months. Du ring this time I went to the election for the pur pose of voting, but was rejected. If I had been a wooly-hcad, no doubt it would Lave been all correct enough. I offered my vote in the district where I live and paid taxes every year. The excuse was that I belonged to the Govern ment and had no discharge. Such arc the thanks soldiers get for exposing themselves. If men arc thus deprived of their rights, when can peace be made 1 The Constitution is trampled upon and it appears that there is a determina tion on the part of the Administration to tram ple on it. Yours Respectfully, W. The Elections. The late elections show wonderful Demo cratic gains. The Democratic majority in Wis consin is 10,000! The town elections in Ohio and Indiana, outside of Cincinnati and India napolis, havo gone Democratic. Albany, ft. Y., is Democratic by 2GOO; Trenton, N. J., by 400; Hartford, Ct., by 467, a gain of 200 since the election for Governor, and New Hav en by 500, a gain of 180. FROM CHARLESTON. One Day Later Accounts from Federal! Sources.

SOME PLACE IN DIXIE, \ April sth, 1803. 1 FRIEND METERS: The old saying of some of the weather wise that "a green Christinas gives a white Eas ter," has been fully verified. For two or three days, the wind has been exceedingly high and cold. About 9 o'clock snow began falling nnd continued to hill throughout the night and up to the present evening. This is what we call "our day;" a pleasant one is called a "Hooker day." Joo has had two or three days quite fa vorable to the anticipated "move," bnt when the "sacred soil" is a little dry then comes a little rain, hail, sleet and snow, in fact a com bination of the elements, all contending for the mastery and it is hard to tell which one has it, as there is a copious supply of each. The Grand Army of the Potomac has bcon reviewed, and of course, pronounced in "splen did fighting trim." What foundation there is for this mighty idea, none can tell, as the boys whose timo is so near up, aro not "spiling" for a fight, and would just as soon go home whole as minus a limb. Hut it is generally expected that the boys will havoanother brush with "John ny Reb." before they get home. This will not have a great tendency to get them to re-enlist, if they have to go home with another bloody fight at their heels. Gov. Curtin visited us last week, and we received the usual amount of commendation. He thinks we will all come out again. "Bully for him," hut the "proof of the pudding is the eating of it," and some of the hoys will he contented with the puddings their mas and sisters make, rather than with frying "hard-tack" in fat strong enough to draw Jeff, himself into submission. Speaking of pud dings, we have just had a dinner on what we call Batter Pudding —that is what we called it at homo. Your correspondent is cook, this week, and wishing to give the boys an agreeable surprise in the shape of something extra for an Easter dinner, went to the gentlemanly and o bliging Kiittler and bought some eggs At only eight cents each, and proceeded at once to make the aforosaid pudding. But do not let any of your fair readers think that I intend to enlight en them on pastry cooking. Suffice it to say that wo got it made and relished it finely, tho' we did not have certain little extras that the folks at home use, to prepare auch dishes. Of course, your correspondent was highly applaud ed as a finished pastry cook. If it should ever be my good luck to visit Bedford, may be I will present Mr. Editor with one of these puddings, and get a puff in his local column. A friend calling himself Sutor, has showed me the Gazette, each week, and has induced me to pen an article for its columns. By the way, what has Iteeomc of Sutor, ns a letter writer! I have seen nothing from his pen for some time. \Ve all expect a gay time, should we bo so lucky as to get home. Thon wo want to see some of the young men who have spent the winter comfortly at home come and try it awhile. Such days as these try men's patience if not their souls. We have to be housed up, or rath er tented up, and have the eyes smoked out of us. But we will stand it because it is all for honor and glory. And who wouldn't be a sol dier? The question seems to be now, who would be a soldier ? this seems to be the most absorbing topic now. Your Correspondent vis ited Falmouth, one day last week, and had \ full view of the rebel pickets. There seems to be plenty of them, too, both white and colored. They (the white men) frequently hold converse with our pickets and try to buy bread of them. One of them showed ine a bar of tobacco, such as our suttlor charges one dollar and fifty cents for, that one of the rebels nfter wading the river gave him for a small loaf of bread.— They tell us they have but one fourth rations. They arc not only Grey-backs but lean backs. The Court-martial that was in session, for some time, for the trial of Gen. Tyler, is at last happily ended. A certain military man, thro' jealousy had trumped up some imaginary offence that he did not commit and the general, for a while, was deprived of his command. Thank God ! our leader is acquitted and is ready again to go where danger is the thickest. Cownrdico at Fredericksburg was one of the charges.— Who dares to call Gen. Erastus B. Tyler, tho hero of Winchester and many other hard fou't battles, a coward? Ye gods defend me or my posterity from ever heing a military leader if such men as Tyler arc to be called cowards. I am one of his brigade and proud of it, and the man that intimates that ho is a coward, had better not get within clubbing distance of any of Tyler's Brigade. I have never seen a Gen eral so attached to his men. His Ohio friends have presented him with a splendid horse, sad dlo and bridle, and bis men bavo given him n splendid sword, sash and belt. Tho Gen. res ponded in n neat and appropriate speech. Sev eral times he was so affected that he could hard ly speak. From present indications I think there will be a force kept here a while. A new and sub stantial bridpehas taken tho place of the old one at Potomac Creek Station and several forts and palisades have boon erected near it for its de fence. Quite a number of guns have been al ready mounted, tried and found entirely satis factory. Our division (Humphrey's) arc out on picket. This is rather unpleasant weather to dosuch du ty as that; but it must l>o done. The boys arc all in good spirits, ns they will soqn be clear of the thraldrom to which wc have been subject. We have to do nine days' picketing monthly. Our boys will come in on Tuesday, then go out a gain about the '2()th of the month, and with that they are in hopes that they will be men a gain. For indeed a private soldier can hardly stylo himself a man, subject, as he is to ail kinds of rule, from an Bth corporal to the big shoulder straps. He must do just what he is bidtlh), no matter how degrading it is ; but, ns a writer for the "Gazette" says, it is "all mili tary." I must say the nine month men are being treated a little better now than they were for some time. In fact since wc are getting a littlo soft bread, with a few potatoes nnd onions. The place where these things go, has heroine o used to the presence of nothing but "hard-tack" and bacon, that it sometimes become nle<l and ejects them forth with. Your correspondent had an invitation to go out to dine to day, but the inclement weather stopped that arrange ment. However, the pudding dtd admirably. I just wish you could be hero on a day like this, in our mess, some can lie found reuding their testaments, others tracts, of which the Y. M. C. A., of I'hil'a, give us plenty, thereby show ing their unflinching patriotism, whilst others are engaged at-the scientific and classic game of "old sledge," making quite a grotesque picture. "But it's all military." Our chaplains do not seem to have thai salutary Infloenoe that It Is thought they do. Our venerable Uncle had better save that one hundred and eighteen dol lars a month, for all the good it does. Ido not wish to be understood as speaking at all (rev erently, but really thoy are of little or no ac count, here, as they, liko other men, seem to beoorna reckless, when in the army. Of course, tbera aro some honorable exceptions. The chaplains we had in our regiment were the host of men and we were only too sorry to lose them. We are occasionally treated with an excellent discourse by Col. Clark, of the 12311 Ponn'a Regiment, a Presbyterian. He is a splen did speaker as well as officer. But I have run on at quite a lengthy rate, and must close. Our facilities for writing are none of the best. A small portfolio, and that resting on the knee, with a camp kettle for a seat, is not the easiest position one can get in to write. Acting on the advice of Sutor, I have made bold enough to try my hand at writing for tho press. Should this find a place in your columns, you may, perhaps, again hear from your friend, _ NEMO. FAIRFAX COURT Va., ) April 13tb, 18G8. \ FRIEND METERS: If you deem it a pleasure to reside in a country where a blade of grass or a fence rail is not to be seen or found for miles around, the red mud two or three feet doep, and a town close by iu which nobody lives, where you can regale yourself with ale or lagor by paying a dime per spoonful, or appease your hunger with a "ginger cake" by lightening your pocket of a sixpence, then indeed we are favored in the high est degree. "Pork and beans" occasionally va ried to "beans and pork," expecting midDight raids, outside picketing, or a scouting frolic, with the sight of a few "Greybacks" now and then, are among some of the many luxuries we revel in. The town of Fairfax is now inhabi ted by euttlcrs, one or two whitu ladies an oc casional colored lass here and there, Uncle Sam's, mules, and a few half starved cata and dogs.— The most remarkable features in the surround ing scenery are the white abodes of Uncle Sam's harvest-hands, to be seen on almost every hill side within sight. There are about eight or ten thousand cavalry with some artillery and in fantry encamped in the vicinity. Tho Brigade to which we are attached is collecting here, anil probably we will move again soon. On Eas ter Sunday we bad a pretty severe snowstorm, and Laving come to this place the evening be fore we had a gay old time, sleeping in tho snow and on the wet ground, some of us without tents, but being no strangers to such treatment, it was submitted to with a pretty good grace, and a little muttering about "the infernal sol diering business." Among the cavalry around here we notice the 18th Pennsylvania, in which are somo Bed ford County boys, who came with Lieut. Nel son, since wounded and now lying in a Hospi tal here. He is recovering and expects to visit his home before long, lie is spoken of very highly by his men for bis bravery, and your town Las not furnished a more gallant soldier, as bis conduct while in the field, his missing limb, and the rebel lead still retaining a homo in his form can well attest. Among the numer ous friends of tho Federal soldiers in this vi cinity the name of Captain Moseby, a some what distinguished rcliel cavalry officer, is fre quently spoken of. If danrig deeds on a small scale, midnight raids, capturing and killing pick ets entitle him to our friendship, he well de serves it. It was he that took a certain Fede ral General out of his warm bed (poor fellowl not long since, and last night we presume it was his kind anxiety for our welfare, that occasion ed us to be routed from our slumber at mid night, ft) remain in the saddle am; under arms until dawn this morning, fifty o* our pickets i having been captured ami six killed. We wish you all a gala time, in view of the conscription business, though our hearts wish is, that a conscript may never cross "Mason & Dixon's" line, or our eyes behold one in the "Old Dominion." Wishing for ourselves a speedy emancipation out of the mud and this place and a busy summer's campaign, wo re main Yours, &c., BEDFORD. FINAL ADJOURNMENT.— The Legislature ad journed sine die at twelve o'clock yesterday, and most of the members left the city the same af ternoon, so that our principal hotels, which have been thronged during the past winter, now present somewhat the appearance of banquet halls deserted." A commendable degree of so ciality and good feeling characterized the clo sing hours of the session in the House, and a genial mood pervaded the entire assembly. The parting address of Speaker Cessna was truly eloquent nnd patriotic. That portion of it in which he alluded to the war and expressed a hope of the ultimate restoration of u t/ie Union as it was," excited the most intense enthusi asm nnd elicited thunders of applause. A nov el and interesting feature of the closing cere monies was the singing of the popular song, ''When this cruel war isovcr," by Messrs. Kerns and Smith, of Philadelphia, which was followed by the ''Star Spangled Banner," the entire au dience, mombcrs and spectators, joining in the chorus, and uniting in three hearty cheers for "the flag of our Union" when the song was con cluded. With this patriotic, demonstration terminated the session of the house for 1863, and many of its members have already reached their homes.— Patriot !f Union. ANOTHER CAN* PRESENTATION.—A tew minutes prior to the adjournment of the llouso of Repre sentatives yesterday, Mr. Ludlow of Philadel phia, approached the speaker's chair, bearing in his hand a splendid ebony cane, surmounted by a solid and olaborafely ornamental gold head, which he presented to Speaker Cessna, on be half of the officers of the House, in token of their regard for him ns a man and an officer. The briof remarks of Mr. Ludlow, accompany ing the presentation, were chaste, touching and eloquent, and sensibly affected the gentleman to whom they were specially addressed, as well as the entire audience. The recipient of the beau tiful prosent made an appropriate and eloquent reply, in the course of which ho paid a high compliment to the officers of the House for the courtesy, fidelity and ability with which they had discharged the duties of their respective positions. The cane is a very beautiful and costly one, manufactured to order by Mr. M. H. Lee, of this city, at an expense of nbout forty dollars, nnd contains the following engra ved inscription: "Presented to Speaker Cessna by the Houso of Representatives, 1863, in token of their regnrd for him nsa man and an officer." Mr. Cessna proved himself a courteous, efficient and ablo speaker, and tho compliment paid him by the officers, as well aa by the members In a unanimous resolution of thanks, was richly morhedj—Patriot $ For the Redford Qnttitt Soripture and the War. llf AMANDA J. SWABTZVfKIJXJi In eighteen hundred and sixty one, War 'tween the South and North begurt.- And in eighteen hundred and ixty-tbree, The end, as yet, we cannot see. When first we heard that Sumpter fell, We knew the end no man could tell; And now 'tis plain for all to sec, The truth of this in 'sixty three. At first some said it soon would end, On this wo surely might depend ; While others thought that it might last Until one year at least was past. But those who seemed to know tho best, Were found to differ with the rest, The end, they thought, wo need not fix, Before the close of 'sixty-six. They pointed to God's Holy Book, And bade us o'er its pages look; For there the prophets seem to fix Babylon's fall near 'sixty-six. Tho prophet Daniel seems to vio w, And Joel also looks unto, The coining of the present war, And what our God intends it for. In fact, tho prophets, one and all, Say Babylon must shortly fall; For her inventions now have slain All those who do the truth maintain. And here 'tis seen that l'aul comes in, And tells us of Tho Man of sin," And 'tis believed this is tho one, The prophets call "Groat Babylon." 'Tis also thought he is the "Beast," Whom John beheld so much increased That he went out with power again, And tilled the land with Zions slain. And he had power, John further says, To slaughter God's Two Witnesses ; Ftft these two prophets long had been A torment to "The man of Sin," They're dead, and now he doth rejoice, And send gifts 'round with cheerful voice; For he is proud that they arc slain, And has no thought they'll rise ugain. But lo! Jehovah calls aloud, And up to heaven in a cloud, They rise ami sing with rapturous lay, As birds soar up at break of day. Sorus of once free America! Although the Beast doth now you slay; Fro long your God will bid you rise, According to the prophecies. Then, fear ye not foul Babylon's rage, For God has lived in every age, The shield of right, and He will be Your shield to all eternity. Black Valley, March 30, 1863. Abolition View of the War. At an abolition meeting, held at the Union League rooms in Philadelphia, on the 23d ult., a certain Rev. A. N. Gilbert delivered himself of the following. "We all have learned the history of St. Do mingo, and it would be terrible to have a St. Domingo massacre re-enacted upon our soil But the President has declared this a military necessity, and if blood must flow we must not dread the consequences. Blood must flow in this war. ••••••• I speak it meaningly, and as a Christian, de liberately and calmly, that I would see every woman and child in the South perish than thnt the Southern Confederacy should succeed in gaining the objects of its leaders.'' (Applause.) These aro 1113 words, not colored or garbled, but taken verbatim from a Republican organ.— And it is with such men—false to their God, false f 0 the Constitution, false to manhood— that Democrats urc asked to fraternize in "Loy al Leagues!" Misapplication of Troops. The Connecticut Democratic journals are showing that if the 3,000 troops used to tnke Connecticut, the 1,000 to take Rhode Island, and the whole regiment, with the stragglers, ordered on to New Hampshire, had been or dered to join General Hunter, Charleston might have been taken by land, whereas, on ly Connecticut nnd Rhode Island have been taken. WTho best test of patriotism is furnished by the soldiers, who have been and are yet fighting for the Union. A New York pnper, that isev idently of this opinion, suggests that the "Lea gues nnd Associations" now forming should a dopt, as an additional obligation, that each member shall pledge himself, if drafted, not to tako the benefit of the ?300 substitute clause. of three hundred million dol lars have been stolen by eontractors—nenrly e nough to support the war for a year.
