Condition of Missouri.
Mr. John W. Eobiaon, formerly of this
plsoe, bat who, for some years {Mat, baa
boon maiding in Springfield, Missouri, re
tonmd wilb his family, a few days since.
He gives a rather deplorable account of
then tote of affairs ia that section of that
now unhappy State. He left Springfield
with Beigol’a army ijben if retreated out
-of that place on the morning of the 11th
after tbe great battle between Xyon
and MoCnlloob's forces. He bad ho time
to save any of bis effects Iwve wearing ap
parel, aitd not all of that. Seigal’a army
moved out early in the morning and the
advance guard of the rebels entered the
town at eight o'clock, just after the rear
of the Union forces had left. In the sec
tion of the State occupied by the rebel
army all the erope have been destroyed
and the grain and stock appropriated to
the naa Of the army. In many instances
they c&d not pretend to pay for what they
took, and where they did offers return, it
wapiti Southern Confederacy Script, filled
up with a lead pencil, and, as a matter of
conne, not worth the paper on whichit
was written. The Union forces, while en
camped at Springfield, also appropriated
grttina*djstoek to thenaeoftbe army, in
the-ahsanae of aappiies from the Govern
ment, bat they were always paid for in
money oastentin the State. Herein the
diSatmwe.
What is to become of (be poor people
in (hat past of the State is hardso realise.
The rebel arm; is now in the neigh
borhood of Springfield, and, being with
out supplies from the Confederacy, de
pends upon foraging. This will consume
all grain and stock in that region. The
question is, where are the poor to get their
winter’s bread:?- Business of every kind is
perfectly prostrated, consequently they
cannot get work to earn money to buy
provisions—which will be enormously high,
because brought from a'distance—and they
have no money to bring them away- —
Starvation is their certain doom, unless
Something be speedily done for them.—
Oh ! what a fearful reckoning awaits those
who 'hare entailed these untold misenes
upon innocent women and! children. How
rnfly the wane of those border States that
hare allowed aiaw demon demagogues to
transfer their unholy crusade against the
Union into their domains. Poor Misson

The Kews.
While we afo not in favor ofthe motto
Jhat “to the victor belong the spoils.”
when apblied to poUtivß parties, we are,
nevertheless, in &voi of the removal of
eria% clerk now holding office; in Wash
ington city, of elsewhere, who manifests
tiie least hesitancy in taking the oath of
allegiance to the constitution of ithe United
States, or against whom there ia the .leaat
anspioion of disloyalty. This is not the
time to bandy words in a matter so vital
to the perpetuation of the Union. A
friend of the Secessionists who maintains
’his position in any of the public offices at
Washington can do as much, if not more,
injury to the Union eanse. than a division
of confederate soldiers; therefore we hope
to see the offices rid of them an speedily
as possible. We are glad to learn that
they are being speedily and summarily
dismissed.
Washington city is now secure .against
toy attack that the -Confederates may
make Upon, it, and the War. Department
and ihfe old General-in-Chief would like
nothing belter than to see such an attack
made. The Confederates would, in that
event, he so. completely routed that they
could not call a halt at Manassas.
The torm of enlistment of men entering
the regular , army between this time and
the first of January, 1868, will be for three
yean. After that date tin term will be
as heretofore—five yean. The minimum
standard of height for recruits is fixed at
five feet three inches.
Two prisoners who recently escaped
from Richmond report that oar men, who
are priaones there, are crowded into small
rooms and are indifferently eared for,
though in their lettera they are obliged to
intimate that every attention is paid to
their comfort. 'We did not believe the
statements contained in letters of priso
ners folly confident as -we are, that
these who do not treat their own subjects
respectably would hardly show much kind
ness to their enemies.
The government has ordered that Ad
ams' Express convoy no more written com
munications'between the North and South,
thus virtually patting the veto on the last
and almost only hope of the rebels of gain
ing information concerning tilings in the
North. The ropes arc gradually but sure
ly tightening around them, and they will
soon find thlmselvcs in an isolated condi
tion.
The agents of the Government in the
North have been extremely vigilant of
late, in airesting spies and emissaries of
the South who have came to the North to
obtain loans or bay contraband articles, or
who hate returned from Europe with aid
and comfort for our enemies. -All South
erners yrho now arrive at Northern porta
from foreign countries are subjected to
oloso inspection, and those about to sail
for foreign ports are also closely search
ed. It is now extremely unhealthy for
any of them to be oanght up in their trai
torous schemes.
The .secession forces have been with
drawn-farther back into Virginia. The
intention of this movement on their part
is a matter of speculation, but certain it is
that it commenced as. soon as our forces
*t Washington were increased.
The Union men of Missouri ore being
plundered and driven 7 out of that part of
the State now occupied by the forces of
Sen. McCulloch. Over 1,006 Union men
have been, forced to leave their homes 1 in
the Southwest, leaving their property at
the merisy of the rebels.
The report that the small poz, measles
and mumps are raging in the camps of the
insurgents, south of the Potomac, is un
doubtedly correct, as it is verrified by re
ports from their own side. If let alonefor
a time, disease will thin out their numbers
much faster than Northern bullets. It is
a fact known to those who were in the
Mexican campaign, that the Southern reg
iments suffered much more from oontage
oiis diseases, such as is now reported in
their camps, than did the Northern regi
ments.
U- Si army officers who now tender their
resignations, in the face of the enemy, are
immediately arrested and placed in Fort
Hamilton, N. Y., thns preventing their
going over to the Southern Confederacy
andmaking use of the knowledge they
have acquired at the expense of the U. S.
by leading armies or commanding priva
tcersagmnstit
It ie reliably stated that foreign bankers
have asked leave to take 950,000,000 of
the H. B- loan authorized by the last Con
gress. . The Secretary of (he Treasury has,
however, refnsed to grant It, believing in
the ability of the Government to maintain
itself without asking the aid of foreign
capital; v
The Mayor of Washington City has
been arrested and sent to one of the N. Y.
Forte for refusing to take the oath of alle
giance. He is believed to be in oomplici
ty with- the rebels, and his house is now
guarded to prevent the removal of his pri
vate papers.
The new Governor «f Missouri lias is
sued a. proclamation calling oat 42,000
men to aappltoea Ntodum in that State and
drive ont Ben. MeCnUoch and his forces.
He calls for 10,000 cavalry andB2,ooo in
fantry, and assigns 6,000 as the qneto of
each miHtaiy district. He says that if the
number eaceeds that called for, the over
plus will be held as a reserve corps, bat if
there is a deficiency it may become neces
sary to resort to a draft. The foree eaßed
ont will be for six months unless poacebe
sooner restored. '\
A number of female Secessionists, who
have been acting as spies and giving aid
and comfort to the rebels, have recently
been arrested at Washington city, the
Government has determined that treason
shall be crushed ont whether under male
or female attire.
There are now fifteen steamers in the
Potomac flotilla, composing a force suffi
ciently strong to prevent the rebels cros
sing to the Maryland side, at any point
All the schooners, sloops, row-boats and
skills on the Potomac river have been ta
ken charge of by the Government to pre
vent communication between the Mary
land and Virginia shores.
Arrest of Spies.
One day last week, three men, named
Thou. J. Carson, Walter W. Kelly and
Wm. M. Pegram, were arrested at Harris
burg, on suspicion of being Spies, although
they represented themselves as citizens of
Baltimore. They came through to Har
risburg from Hagerstown, Md., from which
place a telegram informing the Mayor of
Harrisburg ot their character, preceded
them. They were arrested as soon as they
stepped from the cars. They were kept
in custody until the arrival of the U. S.
Marshall and a couple of detectives, when
they were thoroughly searched. Upon
the persons of Pegram and Canon were
found letters which showed their charac
ter, but the most important documents
were found on the person of Kelly, as the
following, which wo clip from the Phila
delphia Press of Friday last, will show:—
Nothing of a suspicious nature was found in
the carpet-hag of Kelly, hat he wee summarily
ordered to atrip. He removed bis garments one
by one, until he stood nude, with the exception
of his undershirt. Nothing was found upon any
of bis garments, and he rolled up the arms of
his undershirt,' saying;
“Yon see I have nothing at all.”
At this time the chief lifted the extremity of
his shirt, disolosing an array of false pockets.—
Kelly then reeled, and faintly asked for a glass
of water, evidently much frightened. Drafts
dated Richmond, on New York, were then pro
duced, amounting to $lOO,OOO or more. The
letters containing the drafts were sewed up in
the pockets, and the whole had been ironed out,
to give the garment a close fit, and prevent the
notes from obtruding. A number of treasona
ble letters were also found.
All the letter* were taken possession of by
the Mayor, and, the circumstances being deem
ed sufficient to detain the men in custody, they
were putin the county prison for a furtherhear
ing.
The men were evidently in the North to get
specie and arms. They will, probably, be han
ded over to the military authorities as spies,
when they will fare by the military laws'pre
scribed in such cases.
The Coming Struggle in Ken
tucky.-—The Louisville Journal of Fri
day, speaking of the continued outrages
of the Secessionists in Kentucky, and their
obvious determination to plunge the State
into war, says;—Fiends and devils in hu
man shape are plotting your ruin and sub
jugation. They are laying their plans to
have confederate soldiers in the employ .of
King Jeff. Davis introduced into this
State. Awake! Arouse! and prepare to
meet, the invader. Give not an inch to
the conspirators in your midst, for the
more you give the more they will advance!
Meet them at the threshold if they dare
interfere with tne exercise of. any consti
tutional right which you possess. Every
man of you to his post, and while you will
not invade any sister State, if war is ten
dered to you accept it fearlessly, and if
your State is invaded welcome the inva
ders “with bloody hands to hospitable
graves." We do not desire unnecessarily
to alarm you, but we tell you that we un
derstand the movements of this secession
party. There it danger ahead. Be not
taken unawares. Eternal vigilance is the
price of liberty 1
An Obstacle Removed. —One great
obstacle in the way of . recruiting for the
volunteer service has been removed by the
following section of an. act passed by Con
gress on the 22d of July last. A great
many men have refused to enlist because
they could not leave their families provi
ded for, but now that their wives can
draw their pay, and also receive their al
lowance from the volunteer fund, this dif
ficulty no longer presents itself;
“ That the Secretary of War be, and is here
by authorised and directed to introduce among
the volunteer forces in the service of the United
States, the system of allotment tickets now used
in the navy, or some equivalent system, by
which the fkmily of the volunteer may draw
such portions .of his pay as he may request."
This has been sent to the officers'of the
United Slates army in command, among
the general orders recently issued from the
headquarters of the army. "
Edward Everett on the Liberty of
the Press.
We hear much mud now-a-days about
the liberty of the press and the freedom of
speech, especially since it has bee n found
necessary to suppress a few journals in
ihe East' that have proven themselves em
issaries of the enemy. In times of peaee
we are in favor of the largest liberty both
of the press and speech, but when we are
involved in difficulties such as now hang
over onr nation, we are decidedly opposed
to allowing any man, cither through the
press or by speech or action, to increas e
those difficulties. Laws made for times
of peaee will not always answer in times
of war. We think it no more justifiable
to allow an editor or a public speaker to
sow dissention among the loyal people of
the Union.and weaken their faith in their
cause, or the General Government, than
it would be to allow a Southern army to
march into one of yonr fertile valleys and
rob the citizens of their crops and stock;
in fact the former is the most serious evil
of the two, and should be eshiest reme
died. Edward Everett, in referring to the
subject, says:—
1 There are presses, for the' most part in the
border States, though some of them are found
iu cities more remote from the scene of action,
which are daily pleading the cause of the enemy,
misrepresenting and villifying the Government
of the United States , exaggerating every article
of unfavorable intelligence, and exerting them
selves to the utmost to dishearten the friends
and defenders of the Constitution and the Union.
Rut such is the all but superstitions devotion of
the people to the. liberty of the press, that these
pernicious journals have, with the exception of
a single instance in St. Louis, never been inter
fered with. It seems to have been tbongbtbet
ter by those in authority to tolerate the mif- 1
chief of those unpatriotic presses, than to ele
vate them to greater importance by prosecution,
or to encroach ip the slightest degree upon that
freedom of public discussion Which in ordinary
times is justly regarded as one of the greatest
safeguards of liberty. But it is preposterous to
sacrifice the end to the means. We should in this
respect learn wisdom from the enemies of (ho
Union. White we regard as unbecoming our
Christian civilization that resort to lynch law,
by which every expression of opinion adverse to
the popular sentiment is suppressed in the sece
ding States, we ought to remember that in tol
erating a traitorous press among onrseives, we
practice a liberality which awakens no gratitude
at home, and is never reciprocated by the op
posing party. It is in Tact an absurdity in
terms, under the venerable name of the liberty
of the press, to permit the systematic and licen
tious abuse of a Government which is tasked to
the utmost in defending the country from gen
eral disintegration and political chaos. The
Government of Malta was once censored ihPar
liament for some alleged severity towards the
editor of a journal in that island, and tho liber
ty of the press was declared to bo in danger.—
The Duke of Wellington said he was as friendly
as anybody to the liberty of the press in Lon
don, but a free press oh the Island of Malta was
as much out of place as it would be on the
quarter-deck of a man-of-war. We suppose the
most enthusiastic champion of (he liberty ofthe
press would hardly think it right to publish a
journal .within the walls of Port McHenry, in
which the officers of that garrison should be
daily advised to desert and the men ,be coc
stantly exhorted ,to mutiny; and whose columns
should be filled with persistent abase of the
Government and all' engaged in its defence.—
Why should journals of that description be al
lowed to diffuse their poison beneath its walls
amidst the excitable population of a large city !
Interesting Decision.
We find in the Pittsburgh Chronicle, of
the 22d inst., the following interesting
decision of a nice point in law, a knowl
edge of which may save some of our read
ers trouble and expense:—The district
Court some few days since delivered its decision
in the case of Campbell vs. Lacock, which, from
the points involved, was looked for with a good
deal of interest. The facts of the case may be
briefly stated. The firm of Getty & Gessenger,
who at one time kept the Station Hotel, . Alle
gheny, dissolved partnership in IB6o—-Getty sel
ling out bis interest to Qessinger, and receiving
therefor $7OO. Qessinger also bound himself
to pay the debts of the firm, Lacock becoming
his security for the performance of the contract.
Campbell, the plaintiff, bolding a note of the
firm for $5OO, brought suit upon it and got
judgment; but the sheriff returned “no goods,”
whereupon be instituted suit against Lacock for
the amount, as the latter had bound himself for
the strict performanceof Gessenger’* agreement
with Getty, namely, that be would pay the debt’s
of the firm. And thus the cose came before the
Coart. Judgment was entered for the defendant,
the Court holding that where on dissolution of
partnership one partner binds himself to the
other to pay the debts of the firm, and a third
partner then and there becomes security for the
performance of the contract—a creditor, not
privy to the contract, cannot in his own name
sue the surety for the firm’s debt. If the cred
itor has any action against the surety it must
be in the name bfthepartner to whom the prom
ise was given.

Evening New has given up the ghost
and every paper in Charleston, Mobile,
Now Orleans, Memphis, Nashville and
Montgomery has raised its prioes—all
pledging themselves in a published state
ment to adhere to the increased tariff of

is not a paying oasiaess.
The* Bight Kind of Talk.
Why c» not all the editors in the loyal
States, notwithstanding they, way be op
posed to the present administration politi
cally, sjMtatbht the Unifi, as do
of them. Lrtallwhoa»i«e®aied-tef«mr
the present peace movements, bec»a*e they
I are opposed to the present administration,
read the following extracts;
[from (he DojiMtown Demoomt.]
Thb Dott or DxwocxiTS. —In the war which
the Government is now waging for the integrity
of the Constitution and the preservation of the
Union, the duty of Democrat* individually, and
the party collectively, is so plain that none can
mistake it They must support the Administra
tion in every measure calculated to put down
rebellion, and conquer peace. In doing this
they are not committed to any of the political
tenats of ,Mr. Lincoln or his party, nor can they
be charged with giving aid and comfort to their
political enemies Heretofore. Democrats have
always rallied to the support of the country
when it was in danger. They fought the battles
of the war of 1812, and defended the honor of
onr flag in Mexico; and let it not be said that
they are any the less mindful of their duty in
the present great national emergency This
contest is one in Wbioh we are all equally inter
ested, and no man can stand aside with folded
arms and say, “ The war is not mine; I have
nothing at stake.” In the contest there is in
volved everything that man holds most dear in
Government and civil liberty, and, in foot, the
very fabric of society depends upon the struggle;
for success to the rebels brings anarchy to us.
The staka is not for the present, hnt for all time
to come, and our children, and our children's
children, are deeply interested. Our party has
ever proclaimed itself the especial champion of
the Union, and branded the opposition as its
enemy ; and there never will again in onr his
tory occur such an opportunity to vindicate our
claim to disinterested patriotism. Let us strive
to excel all other parties in onr devotion to the
country, so, that when the war shall be over we
can point to onr deeds with pride and pleasure.
The support, however, to be efficient, mast be
cardial and heartfelt, and it will not do for a
man to say in one breath that he supports the
Government, and in the next denounce the
“Lincolit war.” This conduct is but a thin
concealment of treason, which would probably
break ant into overt acts but for a little whole
some fear. In the same category may be placed
those who continually cry aloud for “ peace,” at
the expense of honor and everything else, and
begithat the South may not .be subjqgated—an
act which no tan* man dreams, of. He who
does this is not a Democrat, but simply an en
conrager of rebellion and a traitor to his coun
try. Future generations will place a proper es
timate upon all such slippery patriots. In our
nominations this fall, the only qualification re
quited, beside competency, should be that of de
votion to the Constitution and ibe Union, and
an unqualified support of the Government. The
party that does not stand upon this platform
| will go to the dogs, as ft will deserve.
[From the Perry County Democrat.]
Teaitoebin th« North There is Ho use
attempting to conceal the fact, there is at this
time in ail the Northern States an effort being
made to divide the people of the loyal States
with a view to force the government into
abandonment of the war and n recognition of
the Southern Confederacy. It is true there i»
yet no organized Peace Party in the North, but
all that these sympathizers with trenson and
traitors are waiting for, is a few more defeats
and the capital they expect to make out of com
plaints against the collection of the taxes for
the support of the war. Jeff Davis predicted
before the rebellion commenced that there was
a sentiment in the North that would play into
their hands and eventually force the Govern
ment to acknowledge their Confederacy. It ap
pears that be was not altogether mistaken, and
for tbe evidence of the truth of this assertion all
we have to do is to read the editorials of many
of the papers. Some of these treasonable prints
arc doing there to destroy tbe Government than
the Richmond Enquirer or the Charleston Mer
cury can possibly do. In New York the Breck
inridge State Committee, before their final ad
journment last week, put themselves openly in
opposition to the farther prosecution of the war
against tbe>ebels.
We Lave not room this week to give onr opin
ion in detail of this treasonable movement in
behalf of the Secessionists; bnt\ we will say,
that we kill support no man for office this fall,
we do not care who he is, dr by whom he may
be nominated, who is not an avowed friend of
the Union a supporter of the warnow being
waged in defence of the very existence of the
Government Nay, more, we will oppose every
sympathizer with treason or traitors and will
labor night and day to effect his defeat. '
The effort now being made in the North to
commit Democratic party to measures of
hostility to the war and make it a Peace Party,
shall never have our countenance or support,
and the fate of the bine light Federalists of old
should be a warning to all Democrats.
The Democratic party bos always been the
Union party of the country and iipiust not be
suffered to be prostituted to the base uses of
treason. It never was the Peace Party in time
ofyir ud the honest and patriotic masses of
which it is composed will never permit a few
traitors to convert it into the means of dividing
the people of the North and thereby bring de
struction to the Government and rain to the
people. No matter who Is President, the Gov
ernment mnist and shall be sustained, rebellion
crashed put land traitors punished. There is
but one of two positions for every citizen to
He must either be for his country or he is
against it. .He most either sustain the powers
that have been Constitutionally ordained, or he
must oppose thorn for the benefit and behoof of
the traitors who are assailing the integrity of
the Union. ■ Choose ye between them.
