THE DICTATOR'S ORDER.
We publish on the outside of tov day’s
paper, an order from Abram Lincoln, dicta~
tor of the military despotism which has
been established upon the ruins of the once
proud happy and free Republic of America,
"declaring martial law over ali the territory
under his jurisdiction, and suspending the
writ of Habeus Corpus in all cases where
arrests are made under this order. Thus
is completed another act in the drama of des
Jpotism which has been playing upon the
stage of our national existence for the past
year ; thus ends another chapter in the his-
tory of the downfall of the/ American Re-
public ; thus has another chain been forged
to bind the victims of as damnable a cons
spiracy as Hell itself could want. Freeman °
NO, ye are that no longer, friends we may
call you, for a// are friends in adversity,
read the order, read it carefully and weigh
it well. Answer us, then, where are the
liberties bought you by the blood of your
forefathers ? where are the blessings guar-
anteed you by the Constitution of your coun-
try ? where is the glory that has encircled
the Stars and Stripes, the emblem of Amer-
ican liberty * where is that bright place
that our Poets have sang Peans to, <The
Land of the free, and the Home of the
brave 2’? Tell us, ye who once boasted of
the glories of your institutions! ye whose
fathers fell at Bunker Hill, Saratoga, Valley
Forge or Bra ndywine, that you might enjoy
the freedom which they sought, Answer us
if you can.
Great God ! to what a pass have we, who
were ONCE American Freenan come! we
who have basked in the blessings of a gov-
ernment founded by a Washington, cherich-
ed by a Jefferson and strengthened by a
Jackson, a government that has been laud-
ed for its many virtues, praised for its
‘“ equal and exact justice’ and honored by
all for the protection vouch safeed to its
citizens by the strong arm of the law.
We can scarcely believe, yet it 7s so, that
the writ of Habeus Corpus has been sus-
pended in the old Keystone State. Thus
has every one of her citizens been made
subjeet to seizure and imprisonment to mili.
tary tral and ignominiovs death WITHOUT
EVEN THE FORM OF LAW OR CON.
STITUTIONAL AUTHORITY, in direct
and open violation of the Coastitution, (for
which we are told our armics are battling)
which says: ** No person shall be held to
answer for a capital, or otherwise tnfamous
crime, unless on THE PRESENTMENT OR IN~
DICTMENT OF A GRAND JURY except in cases
arising in the LAND OR NAVAL FORCES, or in
the MILITIA when in actual rervice in time
of war or public danger.” And that « The
Trial of all crimes, except in cases of im:
peachment, SHALL BE BY JURY: and
such tral shall BE HELD IN THE STATE
where the said crimes shall have been com.
mitted.’ ;
Why has the Constitution thus been
trampled upon ? why «re the people of this
and other Northern States robbed of their
dearest rights ? Pennsylvania is not in a
state of Rebellion, neither are her civil au-
“‘thorities interfered with. Then why should
martial law be declared while her courts of
Justice are open ? Do those in power be~
sieve the people to be cowering slaves that
- will fawn at the foot of a. despot? do they
think they can shackle the minds, lock the
hips or enslave the strong arm of those who
have tasted of the sweets of American lib-
erty ? Let their their actions answer—
whether American citizens will submit like
cringing sychophants to be thus overgidden
and crushed to the earth, will be answered
on the Second Tuesday of October,
Centre County.
This old Democratic county, which has
always given her eight hundred majoriry
with one or two exceptions, is right side up.
The news from different parts of the county
is of the most cheering character, and we
‘have no hesitancy in saying that we can poll
‘ONE THOUSAND MAJORITY this fall.—
Democra's those of you who are always
found ac'ive, see that your neighbor is out
on the day of election—let no one neglect so
1mporant an election; but one and all rally’
round the Democratic Ticket- -and send to
Bellefonte such an evidence of Democracy,
sas that all may learn that old Centre is true,
unwavering, and despises disorganizing fac-
tions. ' Remember the motto of the Demo~
cratic party-“Union, harmony, self-denial
—everything for the cause—nothing for
‘men.”’ Fess j

GeNTLEMEN :—You have published and oircu-
lated a hand-bill, with the caption, « To the Re-
publicans of this Congressional District,” in
which you say that No faot will be stated not
known to some of the undersigned, with most of
them we all are conversant. The day previous to
the meeting of the Democratic Conference to nom-
inate a candidate for Congress, a proposition was
made by men of that party of the highest charag-
ter and influence, that if Mr Hale would consent
to be a candidate without any party nemination
it was believed the Democratic Conferees could
be indiced to make none.” And again you say,
“The contingency of a refusal on the part of the
candidates or conferees to accede to the ofer was
suggested by the gentlemen of the Democratic
party then present, who said it would not do to
let their conferees adjourn without making a
nomination, if there would be any uncertainty
about Mr. Hale being a candidate.” We believe
we have quoted you truthfully’ and would ask
you to answer us honestly and fairly. Ifyou do
not, then your circular is a falsehood and a slan-
der, when you say, © that men’ (of the Demo-
cratic party) «of the highest character and influ-
ence’’ prefered Mr. Hale to one of their own par-
ty before the Conference met, and that ¢ the Dem-
ocratic Conference as is well known met the next
day and adjourned size die, without making ary
nomination thus performing their part in good
faith. Now we deny that Messrs Hoover, Alex-
ander and Fisher, (the Democratic Conterees) at
Jieir second meeting agreed to adjourn sine die;
(Mr. Fisher was not presant at all) and we deny
that Mr. Hoover, Alexander, or any other Dem-
ocrat of high’character and influence’’ in Centre
County, asserted hat if ¢ Mr. Hale would ¢csnsent
to be a candidate without any party nomination
it was believed the Democratic conferees could be
induced to make none.” ‘We ask you in all can-
dor, to give us the names of those ‘ Democrats
of the highest character and inflence’’ in Centre
County to whom you thus clandestinely refer ?—
From your standing in society, both moral and
political, we can scarcely bslieve that you will
refuse to let'us know who they are, and we will
judge them.
We address you candidly and if rou answer us,
we will be pleased to give your reply due and
friendly consideration—if not we shall consider
it a political trick and treat it accordingly.

Mites Gregg and PoTTER.

a certificate, (Writes.)
«Upon honor, I hereby certify that the
bearer, a good Republican, is weak in the
knees, a great coward, and shrinks from the
defence of his country, Ilope he will be
put in the front ranks where he can’t run

W—(flanding the surgeon a quarter) IT
thank you, sir. I knew I was entitled to a
certificate. ' This rebellion, so wicked and
monstrous, must be put down. It has done
my heart good to see the energy of the
President in ordering a draft.

7 In 1853, Rufus Choate, in speaking
of abolitionism, said: “The basis of orgaiza-
tion is reciprocal sectional hate. To form
and heighten this, to fortify and justify it,
to show that it is moral and necessary and
brave, the whole vast energy of party tactics
isto be put in request. If the ingenuity
of hell were tasked for a device to alienate
and rend asunder our immature and artis
ficial nationality, it would devise nothing so
[7 *. There should be but one party in the
country now” say Republicans, Very well.
Now prove your consistency by deserting
all other organizations, and joining the only
party which can ever carry on the nation |
successfully—the party which was born al«
most with its birth, and which will live when
you and we are mn our graves—the great
Democratic party.
