The Degeneracy of the Timos. Notwithstanding the assertion of some of the Republican editors r.nd preachers, in their Thanksgiving editorial.? and sermons, that ''the country never was in a more pros perous conditionthere are many reasons that cause a thoughtful person to doubt it. How a country cm le in amorcprosperons oosdition in the midst of a terrible ci\il war than it was before, i 3 something, wo must confess, we cannot understand. All things are greater or lc3s, and better or worse, by comparison; and the present state of affairs in onr country i 3 no excep tion to the rule. Perhaps the .country is in a more prosperous condition, financially, fwhen we refer to the men who have inaue fortunes by shoddy contracts) at present, than it was immediately after the breaking out of the rebellion; but compare it, in all other respects, with what it was, at almost any time previous, and it needs but a poor memory to supply a contrast that will make you shudder. There wa3 a time in the history of this country when one of its citizens, occupying a responsible position, could, and did say, when offered a bribe: "I am poor—very poor—but, poor as I am, the king of Eng land is not rich enough to buy me." There was a time, too, when men in high places did not betray their trust —when specie was considered money—when the men were brave, and the women virtuous: and it was considered an honor to hold a position of trust under the people and not over them. It was then considered a virtue to love lib erty and hate tyranny; and r.n Abolitionist wn3 believed to be a trr.ilor. At that time, too, "Progress" was considered improve ment in mora's, and not merely improvement in purse. But ft nhort time ago our leading journals j wer® filled with indignant editorials at the | terrible outrages practised by Aluasia in To- j land, and by Austria in Hungary and Italy, j We sympathized with every effort ct the : flown trodden to throw off the yolc. We i lovod and pitied Ireland—we welcomed her exiles to our shores—we jeicd Uos3uth and ■ almost worshipped him as a martyr to Lib- j erty. And the whole country rung with ac clamations when Captain Ingraham acted 60 promptly in the Martin Koala ufiair.— But, alas! "how arc tho mighty fallen!" Where arc the pure patriots and lofty j minded men that used to be lound in cur Congressional halls? Surely not among the majority there at present. Have we a Webster, a Clay, or a Douglas, either in the Cabinet or the Senate! Where now are the pure, incorruptible patriots of the times past ? We once all professed to love liberty, even tho Abolitionist shrieked for freedom. To-day the Russian fleet rides proudly at anchor in oui ports; and its officers—the minions of ft despot—are honored with A grand reception by the man, who, but ten years ego, declared from the stump in Illi nois, that "no man is good enough to gov ern another man, without the other's con sent. I say this is the leading principle, the sheet anchor of American Republican ism!" Go to tho officers of thegovernment "appointed by thi3 administration, and you will find them all, or nearly all, ready to take a bribe. Three years ago you could go to the cottages of tho laboring men and fanners, from one end of this broad land to the other, and gaze on love, happiness and plenty. Now you find the widow weeping for the husband slain in tins remorseless war between brothers, whilst her children mourn a father who can no longer provide them with bread. Their sor.gs of happiness me hushed in sorrow, or drowned by the tear of cannon. Tho old statue pf liberty iiaa been tumbled from its pedestal; and the new ona st> recently hoisted over the dome .of the capital, represents only corruption, shoddy and tyranny. , ••1)1 fare* the tend, to hit%iD| ilia a prey, Whete mtalt'i accumulates and men decay, Prince* and lord* may flourish, or may Cede! A breath can makf them, ** a breath bis made, ci Bat bold,/res'Mt>tbeir country'* pride, ■ fibtß one* destroyed, can never be eupplied." And who is accountable for all this? Is it the party, who, for fifty years, has stood ,by the principles of the founders of. this Government; and who, but three years ago, were called the "Union Savers'* in derision of their love of their country and its Con stitution ? or, is it the party who denounc ed the Constitution aaa "League with death and a compact with hell?" These are ques tions which posterity will answer when th*e country is in ruins. The great party of I'ue Constitution and Compromise will find no difficulty in answering them now. Oh, America! once the home tf freedom, thy fields ars red with tin: blood of thy sons! [ Thy halls are degocrated by the tread of the tyrant! Thy treasuries are plundered by thieve?,: Thy sacred temples defiled by the tables of the money changer, and Liberty, once thy boasted goddess, finds a more con genial home in the wilds of Siberia, than on thy broad prairies, or in tliy marble-piled cities. EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE. -No. 5. HOUSE or REPRESENTATIVES, ) HARRISBCRQ, Feb. 13, 1864. J DEAR G AZFTTE : There i 3 but little doing here now, the House still being in suspense over the i "dead-lock" in the Senate. Expectation is on tip-toe as regards the result of the clec- I tion ordered by ex-speaker Penny, of the Senate, to fill the assumed vacancy in the Indiana district. As there is an Abolition majority in that district, of about 2,000, I presume the success of the Democracy is hardly looked for by any one. But, will the Senator chosen by order of Mr. Penny j be legally elected ? In the first place, it is clear that there is 110 Speaker of the Sen ate, and, therefore, as none but the Speak er of the Senate can legally issue a writ of election to fill a vacancy in that body, the election, must be void ab initio. Again, there is no ccrtaiuty that Major White has rc-signcd. True, there i 3 a paper on file in the Senate, purporting to be his resignation, but there is no proof that Major White dic tated that document, that he wrote it, or that ho sent it to the Speaker. We are told how it was brought through the rebel lines— what strategy was resorted to in order to prevent its discovery by the wily Confedor [ atcs—but the parties who placed it jn the | hands of the Speaker, studiously avoid (jiv ing ihe name of the skilful gentleman who : carried this precious bit of writing safely I from Richmond to Indiana. They tell us j that it was brought under the shoulder-strap |of a returning surgeon; but they are very ; reticent about publishing the surgeon's name, j "Oil! no, they never mention it!" Let them produce their surgeon, and people will be j gin to believe that the resignation is genu j inc. Until that is done, suspicion will con [ tinuc to attach to that notorious paper. How | the Senate will act in regard to the c- I leetion. I know not; but I presume that, in ; the event of the return of an Abolitionist, j Mr. Penny v. ill at once proceed to 3wear I hixn in, and that will probably be the end j of the Senate imbroglio of 18G4. Ilarmburg is at present filled with sol ; diers. Everything looks emphatically Hue. | The returning volunteers are still pouring in. Some cf the regiments aro greatly re : duccd in numbers. Since the emente in the ! House in regard to the treatment of the re turning troops, comfortable quarters have been prepared for them, and there is now but little complaint 011 the part of the sol diers. So much for the action of the Dem ocrats of the House. The people and the soldiers will learn from this that the Demo cratic party is an institution to bo respect ed and uphold and even "Republicans" will admit it to Ire a "necessary Cvil." Yours, B. F. M. \ The Rcpublioan Mooting. Tho Republican meeting on Tuesday rtight of Court week was gotten up in the usual style. We understand that "our Sen ator," G. W. Householder, and J. It. Pur borrow, Esq., did the gas house arrange ments on the occasion. We are also inform ed that the U3ual number of little boys on the back seats (who sometimes cheer at the wrong part of the speeches) were also pres ent in force. But owing, we suppose, to the impending draft, the rc3t of the poor fellows were not so uproarious a3 one would expect after their tremendous victories (?) over the Democrats last fall. They wound up the performances of tho evening with three cheers for "Old Abe and the Union" —putting old Abe first, of course; thereby showing that it i 3 tho next President, and not the Union, they are trying to save. erWc have been Bhown a small, neatly printed work, entitled "Maternal Instinct or Love," written by Dr. Toner, of Wash ington, D. C. The subj'ect is one of inter est to every mother in the land, and being written by an experienced physician is well worthy of .perusal by all. The style is ea sy and scholarly and does mcdit to the au thor's head ami heart. The author i 3 a nu .tive of Westmoreland county, and is well known to many of our citizens. wWe were present at a supper given to the returned soldiers of the 55th and other Pennsylvania regiments, on Monday last, l)y Dr. C. N. Hickok. The entertainment was ptfcparod by Messrs. Diehl & Dibcrt, and was very tine. The boys appreciated the kindness of the liberal gentleman who gave the entertainment, and showed their appreciation in three hearty cheers for him. CrTlre Pittsburg Post is out in a new 1 dress, and makes a very neat appearance. It is, wo believe, tbc only Democratic pa per published both daily and weekly in the western part of Pennsylvania. We call attention to the advertisement in another column. Adjournment of Congress. Some weeks ago, our Representative, Hon. A. 11. CofiYoth, offered the following resolution in Congress; "Hestlved, That (the Senate concurring) the present session of tlio 88th Congress adjourn on the third Monday of April next, at 12 o'clock, M." We commend tbc resolution, for the reason that the sooner that Abolition concern comc3 to an cad the better it will bo fur the people. Tho Abolitionists have a majority in, both houses, and,so far, tho whole, or nearly the whole time hns been spent in legislation for freeing (lie ne groes and enslaving tho whites. They have passed tills to confiscate qnd emancipate all the race of "American citizens of African descent," nnd have passed resolutions to amend the Con stitution in their favor alone. But true to their instincts the Abolition leaders pass an unconsti tutional Conscription bill, for the purpose of compelling white men to "involunt/try servi tude" in the army. These mon, who can talk so eloquently of the poor negro—torn from his home and sold into slavery against his will—are muto ns mice, when white men a.e torn from tho bosoms of then' families, and driven "like bullocks to tlio slaughter pen," into the armies of the north. Thny vote millions upon millions of dollars appropriations for the benefit of tho negro; and tho bounties duo the widows of sol diers who have fallen in their defence remain unpaid. They are. willing to pay the President his salary in gold or its equivalent, but when the same favor is asked for soldiers' wages, it is de nounced as n Copperhead scheme to injure the cfodit of the country. Yes, our representative lias done well to cfTer this resolution, mid we only hope and pray that it will be agreed to. If it is, it will save the country millions of dollars, nnd, perhaps, leave the people at least a spark of their .liberties, which will not be tbc case if the session is con tinued to any great length. We say i t the present Congress adjourn, ntid they will do their country more real service by the simple net of adjournment alone, than they Invu done during the entire session. 63"The enlistment of volunteers to fill up the companies of Captains Filler, Mctzger, Lyons and Livingston is going on quite favorably—a largo number have ahoady enlisted, and still they come. To those wishing to enlist, we can com. mend either of these officers. They have all seen sufficient service to recommend them to thoso who wish to "pitch in." ARM / CORRESPONDENCE. BEAUFORT, S. C., Feb. 7, 1904. MR. En ITOK: Everything is going on quietly in tbis department. No news of any importance. The nihiirs around Charleston are at a stand still? A vary extensive expedition is bring fittsd out at Ililton Head, the destination of which is un known. 'Hie Ist 8. C., a negro regiment, was ordered from the Ferry, at wide h place they bail been doing picket duty, to join the expedi tion. They had just gone out on picket a few days before, and left their camp shouting "John Brown's soul i c marching on," but they didn't return quite eu jubilant. The negroes of this department aro not very enthusiastic. They have n wholesome terror of "Minnies." The teachings of the philanthropic New E;:glandcrs don't appear to be very bene ficial. Maidens from the snow capped bills of the North, are incessant in their labors of in struction. Teacher and scholars appear to be very intimate.' What produces the attraction, is very difficult to determine, unless it bo the general rule: "Unlike qualities attract —like qualities repel." They have but one profession, that is greenback philanthropy. The "nigger" is their God, and old Abo is their prophet. Our camp is very dull of late, caused by the departure of part of the regiment for home.— A word to the destroyers of our happiness. How arc you, veterans'? Ilcpe you aro weli, and enjoying tho good things that abound nJS there. Yon don't know how many tears have been shed by those you have left among the shades of darkness, that couldn't "shum the three years." You are having splendid times— are at banquets, quaffing wine from goldoo cups —tripping on the light fantastic toe; and "all goes merry as u marriage bell," eh? In the midst of your jollifications, just think of "sleeping a gainst tho door when tho lightning flashed;" and drink a glass to tho delinquents. Tho Ora cle says you will bo back in South Carolina bo fore two months. In conclusion, "Vets," don't make too many conquests and leave sail hearts to mourn, but think of "heave! halt! heave! halt!" anil moderate your happiness. Truly, yours, O. B. S. Wo notice in a Kepublican paper, an article headed," What becomes of dead horses*" We submit that under existing circumstances' the inquiry, "what becomes of dead men?" would bo far more pertinent. A Shoddy organ says that, "even if tho ad ministration has committed some mistakes, it is useless to cry over spilt milk." tYes," replies I Prentice , "but WJ cannot help crying over noed- I lessly spilt blood." I ear To select nutmegs prick them with a pin. j If they aro good the oil will instantly spread a -1 round tlie puncture. Re-election of Mayor Sanderson. We congratulate the Democracy of Lancas ter upon their victory on T'uesjay, and cur triet.d the Mayor upon his re-election. Every efforts possible to ha made was made by the Union crushers to carry the city against, the Democrats, but they were met manfully and beaten signally. The Abolition dailies of Mon day wore filled with anathemas against the Corps 'guerrillas' and 'sympathizers.' and appeared confident of success: but it seems the people nt,' ere not moved thereby, and did not respond ns they expected. Lancaster remains true to Democracy, and Sanderson is Mayor again in spite of Abolition curses and money, by a ma jority of 127—sixty-eight more than was cast t'ov the State ticket last fall. Well clone, Lan caster—well done, Mr. Mayor. —We feel inclin ed to give you three and a tiger. Compliment to Hon. Hiestcr Clymer. The Harrisburg correspondent of tlio Phila delphia Daily News, (u Republican journal graph ically describing'n scene which occurred on the floor of the Senate, on Friday week, pays the following deserved compliment to Hon. Hiestcr Clymcr, the able and eloquent member from Berks. "It was remarkable to sec thi3 man Clynnr, the acknowledged leader of his party, preserve his coolness and equanimity under the repeated fierce, assaults made upon the Democratic, ci:- trenennients. lie stood proud:; at bay, and most ingeniously refusing to receive the flag of truco which Graham sent into their camp for a surrender. I know nothing of his sagacity in secret political council, but he is jndce.l, sin able leader on the floor of-lhc Senate." "Leaking Oat." Among the "latest news ' from Washington in the Republican papers, we find this: "It ha 3 ler.kcd out that official reports put the Union loss in killed, wounded and missin-r at Chanccllorsvillo at tlio apnalinglfgure of 28,. 000." CO,OOO at Chickahominy, 20,000 at. second Hull run fight, 20,000 nt Antietam, 20,000 at. Fredericksburg, 22,000 at Chnneellorsvillc and 25,000 at Gettysburg—ls3,ooo in all, tells pretty plainly what lias become of the great Po tomac army of the winter of 18G2. Wo believe all t!;e abovo are low figures, yet how ditfi rent from the unofficial and unauthorized statistical tables put before the public by Man-field, and taking.the rounds of the paper. And remem ber the above is only the loss of one a>-my. Now, supposing thai th"re was an equal num ber lost cn the other side, and all reports from our side stated that Inn losses of the enemy al ways surpassed ours, then we may sr.fay put down 148,000 for tho Confederates. In {' is we include neither the first Bull Run fight, r.nr ar_v of the lesS bloody scenes ar.d mill contested skirmishes almost continually transpiring as n jtnvt of tho P'.iomac army, and the forces oppos ed to ii. A ft :r comtemplating this, let your mind sweep the extent of country South and West of the two Capitals of the two contending forces, much larger than nil of Europe, and h tag!as if you cfto, the lull extent of tho lives r. m mmd and si' kened, property destroyed, at'e-)-entail ed, outrages committed of every varying cher ad'.'r, and then ponder over the fact, whether tlib party, who form tho first dis proved of a war at. ail, should now organize itself on that platform of bloni, for a further prosecution of tho horrors of the Lincoln e.d niinistrnlion! We cannot, bring back the lost, nor restore the bereaved n:td broken hear is; but we can. as christians and pr-triois, make r,n ef fort befi're God and the world to save a remnant ot what Is ijft, and i.d.d no more to the numer ical column of woe and wroth son ess, row cry ing to Heaven i'vr mercy and protection.

The Boston Courier, in the following anecdotes, throws some lurid light upon the blood-stained intrigue to which the Potouinc army and the nation's cause were sacrificed : "Wa do not beiievc it possible to add to the works of Cieper'd McCJell in, but we desire to put on record a conversation reported to us, on the best authority, moro than a year ago as hav ing then recently occurred between a leading .politieia of a New England State and the Sec retary of War. Snid the Secretary; Generals M" CM lan is getting too popular-, ire will have to check him.' 'You will huvo to check him very quick then, or he will get in ltichmond.' responded his interlocutor. 'Oh, he cannot do that, he has not mm enough; and ice don't intend to send him ring more." was the answer of the Secretary. Well might ho be shortly afterwards charged to his face by the man whom ho thus sought to destroy, with 'doing his best to sac rifice the army.' NOT BAD. —Uneducated persons, and oven tho ignorant often succeed in illustration wliero the tlioughful and cultivated fail. A striking instance is given in tho case of a negro, whoso head was examined by a phrenologist. A vol ume cf argument con Id scarcely convey moro j to our mind than the fellow's homily speech: "It's hard, mas -a, to tell what meet is ia do smoke house, by putting the lirnd on du roof." People who attend church are very apt to close thaif eyes during the scattering of tho Di- I vine seed as they do at the barber shop when their beads a; o powdered. cotton and caster oil have restored frost-bitten limbs when amputation was tho't to bo necessary to preserve life.

Tho Confederates made another demon stration on tho morning oi' that -hr--, on New port Burrocks, which point, wo are told, thoy will evidently attempt to hold. Moreover, it is intimated, that a Confederate iron-clad on the Ncuse lliver is preparing to act in concert with the force threatening Nowbern.
