county represented in the army of our
country. Some weeks ago, before the
call of the Governor on the military
of the State, these gentlemen bad ten
dered the services of the companies
under their command. After the call
was made, it was not thought neces
sary- to renew the tender, but it ap
pears from what we have learned, that
no attention was given by the Gover
nor to tenders made previous to his
call on the military, and in consequence
of this misunderstanding the compa
nies of our county have been permitted
to remain at home longer than they
otherwise would have been.

OUR CORRESPONDENCE.
The Flag must be Preserved
The President of the United States,
has issued his proclamation, calling
for 75,000 men to protect and defend
the Union and the Constitution,
against the hand of the Southern trai
tors. His call has been answereil.—
Thousands have flocked under the
banner of Freedom, to preserve it to
the last, and thousands yet await to
hear another call, and do likewise.
This is the first time in our Nation's
history,that ever friend battled against
friend, and brother against brother—
in truth, the first time that a civil war
ever retarded the advancing steps of
our prosperity. God grant that after
this struggle has been terminated, and
the two contending parties are paci
fied, and restored their natural calm
ness and quietude, that the Stars and
Stripes, which adorn the Flag of our
Union, shall nevermore be plucked
from out its glorious folds.
We have heard also of the procla
mation of the President of the so
called Southern Confederacy, calling
for 150,000 soldiers, to fight in that
infamous cause, being twice the num
ber that Lincoln has selected. And
shall that rebellious host, destroy this
Government, the best that has ever
been devised by mortal man? Shall
they seize the property that of right
belongs to us? And last, though not
least, shall they trample under foot
the emblem of this renowned Union?
No ! from every true patriot's heart,
let the answer be No I not while a
drop a blood courses through their
veins, and they have an arm to defend
and save it.
When our soldiers march against
the invading foes, let the spirit of free
dom beat within their hearts, and
when the time comes for action, may
they think of the Flag, under which
they are fighting, and let them battle
with a determination to drive the
rebels and the traitors from out this
independent country.
They have defeated us in the first
engagement, but shall this withhold
the arm of the Union-loving men of
the North, from taking up the gun
and striking the blow against the trai
tors ? Shall we leave them overrun
our country, and spread destruction
wherever they go, and make us their
subjects? No ! Then let us fight for
the country and the cause, and save
the Constitution and the Flag of our
Union forever.
YOUNG AMERICA
ITUNTINGDOX, Pa,
EAST lOWA, April 15, 1861.
FRIEND LEWIS :—lt is remarkable,
the changes which have taken place
in " lowa " (formally called Ridges,)
during the last seven years. Many of
my former associates, have become
united in the happy bonds of wedlock.
(That is happy to some ; to others it
has proved unhappy.) Others have
been smitten with the monster hand
of death and now lay beneath the sod
of the hills. A number have sought
their homes in the far distant west.—
Farms have been divided. New farms
have been opened out. Buildings
have been erected. Battles have been
fought. Victories have been won.—
Drunkards have reformed. Sinners
have become converted. The igno
rant have become wise. Girls have
become women. Boys have become
men. In fact, all have changed except
these hills which lay in the same po
sition to-day, they did forty years ago,
and will remain so until some Geolo.
gist discovers the rich mines which
are supposed to lay beneath, then a
portion will be removed.
It certainly is must kably strange
To stand and ViONV this rapid ehango
In connection with the changes of
this country Mr. Editor, I will remark
that literary societies were very nu
merous during the last Winter; such
as debates, institutes, spelling schools,
etcetera, and that every "Liek-Ridger"
over 18 ym, is termed literati, or little
rat-i. Indeed they have become so
literary, that oven in their Sabbath
School, they have appointed a com
mittee of twelve, to select different
speakers to address the school each
Sabbath during the Summer. This
certainly is a grand arrangement.—
What school will follow? I visited
the school referred to above, on last
Sabbath and found it flourishing.

LETTER I
FROM 3D SERGEANT "STANDING STONE MIMS.°
FRIEND Lewis:—We arrived in the
city of Harrisburg, Sunday morning,
April 21st., I before three o'clock.—
Alter parading a short space of time
we halted at the " Buehler House,"
where we put up for the night. There
being no beds empty, we were com
pelled to sleep on chairs, floor, etc., or
else not sleep at all. Morning arovo,
mid all, (the " Standing Stone 6uards,"
I mean,) were as lively and as brisk as
bees. The only complaint, being the
situation of the stornache; which was
rather rank. Scarcely no time passed
after being prep ared,till breakfast reached
our ears, and I tell you Mr. Editor, in
less time than the preparations were
made, we were pitching in like grub
bers. After breakfasting, a number
of the Guards, (myself included) visit
ed the great metropolis of the State,
which we found completely filled with
sober b'hoys' and citizens. _From the
Capitol, we wended our weary steps
toward the banks of the Susquehanna.
Soon we were beside the giant stream,
and t'was then I thought, like these
mighty waters pass away, never to re
turn, so will every opposer to the glo
rious flag of our Union, pass away, if
it lay in the power of the "Huntingdon
Guards. Yes,
We u ill protect the Flan of our Unilm,
hide floats o'er the laud of the free and the home
of the brace.
From the river we returned to the
house above mentioned, (having orders
from the Captain, to report in one
hour,) and there found a goodly num
ber of our company, perusing the tes
taments which they received from
their Huntingdon friends. May they
continue. More anon.
The Result of It
[Front the Baltimore Patriot.]
The calamity and disgrace of civil
war have actually fallen upon us.
The organized forces of South Caro
lina in Charleston harbor, without
waiting even for the attempt of the
unarmed vessel to carry in provisions
to the starving garrison at Fort Sump
ter, have, without provocation, open
ed their fire and reduced the fort into
their own possession. The flag of the
United States has been hauled down in
defeat, and the United States garrison
sent out in humiliation. We deplore
this calamity the more since there is
no justification or cause for this act of
war. The United States Government
had attempted no reinforcement of
that garrison. Major Anderson did
not even respond for some hours to
their fire. His supply of provisions
had been cut off by order of the au
thorities of South Carolina, and it was
no less an act of mere humanity than
the highest act of duty, on the part of
the United States Government, to
send an unarmed vessel with provis
ions, to prevent starvation of its own
soldiers.
One' would have supposed that a
high toned and brave people would
have permitted a continuation of daily
supplies to a garrison of but seventy
men. It was evident that such a force
as that—luirdly more than a corporal's
guard—eoulcl never endanger any
rights of the people of South Carolina.
It was hardly sufficient to have the
proper care of the United States prop
erty in time of peace. And yet, with
out even waiting for a plausible pre
text in the arrival, or attempt to enter,
of the unarmed supply-ship, whose er
rand was announced to their Commis
sioners, South Carolina has thought
proper to inaugurate civil war.
The grief and sense of humiliation
we feel compels a different tone in
speaking of so great an outrage and
crime against humanity, liberty, or
der and law, as it justly calls for. The
result is evident among our own peo
ple. All party and political distinc
tions mast be effaced.
All such petty matters fitde out be
fore the great question as twinkling
stars fade out before the rising sun.—
There can be but two sets of men
among us—thow who are for the
Union, and those who are against it.
We shall now learn who arc for the
government of the UNITED STATES, and
who are for the government of the
"Confederate States"—who arc for
the maintenance of that UNION which
WAsnrNorroN founded, defended, and
left as a sacred legacy to his country
men; and we shall know who are for
breaking it up, and succumbing to the
tyranny of a political party in armed
rebellion against the laws of the land.
"THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT," said
AndrowJackson,c TT MUST AND SHALL
BE PRESERVED."
Proclamation of the President
Blockade of the Seceded Ports
Washington, April 10.—The Presi
dent has issued ft proclamation stating
that, whereas, an insurrection against
the Government of the United States
has broken out in the States of South
Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Florida,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, and the
laws of the United States for the col
lection of the revenue cannot be ef
fectually executed therein, conforma
bly to that provision of the Constitu
tion which requires . the duties to be
uniform throughout:the United States;
and further, that a combination of
persons, engaged in such insurrection,
have threatened to grant pretended
letters of marque, to authorize the
bearers thereof to commit assaults on
the lives, vessels and property of good
citizens of the country, lawfully en
gaged in commerce on the high seas
and in the waters of the United States;
and whereas, the President says an
Executive proclamation has been al
ready issued, requiring the persons
engaged in these disorderly proceed
ings to desist therefrom, calling out a
militia force for the purpose of re
pressing the same, and convening Con,
gross in extraordinary session to de
liberate and determine thereon, the
President, with a view to the same
purposes before mentioned, and to the
protection of the public peace, and the
lives and property of the orderly citi
zens pursuing their lawful occupations,
until Congress shall have assembled
and deliberated on the said unlawful
proceedings, or until the same shall
have ceased, he has further deemed it
advisable to set on foot a blockade of
the ports within the States aforesaid,
in pursuance of the laws of the United
States and law of nations in such ea
ses provided. For this purpose a
a competent force will be posted so as
to prevent the entrance or exit of ves
sels from the ports aforesaid. If,
therefore, with a view to violate such
blockade, any vessel shall attempt to
leave any of the said ports, she will
be duly warned by the commander
of one of said blockading vessels, who
will endorse on her register the fact
and date of such warning; and if the
same vessel shall again attempt to
enter or leave the blockaded port, she
will be captured and sent to the near
est convenient port for such proceed
ings against her and her cargo as may
be deemed advisable.
PROCLAMATION of JEFF. DAVIS.
Our Commerce Threatened—Privateers
to be Fitted Out—Letters of Marque
and Reprisals to be issued.
:noncomlan", April 17.---The follow
ing proclamation has just been issued
by Davis :
PROCLAMATION Dl' THE PRESIDENT Or
=
Whereas, Abraham Lincoln, Presi
dent of the United States, has, by
proclamation, announced his intention
of invading the Confederacy with an
armed force for the purpose of captur
ing its fortresses, and thereby subvert
ing its independence, and subjecting
the free people thereof to the dominion
of a foreign Power; and
Whereas, It has thus become the
duty of the Government to repel a
threatened invasion, and defend the
rights and liberties of the people by
all the means which the laws of civilized
nations Place at its disposal.
Now, therefore, I, Jefferson Davis,
President of the Confederate States of
America, do issue this my proclama
tion, inviting all those who may de
sire, by service in private armed ves
sels on the high seas, to aid this Gov-
eminent in resisting so wanton and
wicked an aggression, to make appli
cations for commissions or letters of
marque and reprisal, to be issued un
der the seal of these Confederate States.
And I do further notify all poesons ap
plying for letters of marque to make a
statement in writing, giving the name
and a suitable description of the char
acter, tonnage, and force of each ves-
sel, the name, place, and residence of
each of the owners concerned therein,
and the intended number of the crew,
and to sign such statements and deliv
er them to the Secretary of State, (or
the collector of a port of entry of these
Confederate States, to be by him trans
mitted to the Secretary of State.)
And I do further notify all applicants
aforesaid, that, before any commission
or letter of marque is issued to any
vessel, the owner or owners thereof,
and the commander for the time being,
will be required to give bond to the
Confederate States with, at least, two
responsible sureties not interested in
such vessel, in the sum of five thousand
dollars, or if such vessel be provided
with more than a hundred and fifty
men, then in the penal sum of ten
thousand dollars, with the condition
that the owners, officers and crew who
shall be employed on board such com
missioned vessel shall observe the laws,
of these Confederate States, and the
instructions given them for the regu
lation of their conduct, that shall sat
isfy all damages done contrary to the
tenor thereof by such vessel during
her commission, and deliver up the
same when revoked by the President
of the Confederate States.
Aud I do further specially enjoin on
all persons holding office, civil or mili
itary, under the authority of the Con
federate States, that they be vigilant
and zealous in the discharge of the du
ties incident thereto.
And I do moreover solemnly exhort
the good people of these Confederate
States, as they love their country, as
they prize the blessings of a free Gov
ernment, as they feel the wrongs of
the past, and those now threatened, in
an aggravated form, by those whose
enmity is more implacable because un
provoked, that they exert themselves
in preserving order, in promoting con
cord, in maintaining the authority and
efficiency of the laws, and in support
ing all the Pleasures which may be
adopted for the common defence, and
by which, under the blessing of Divine
Providence, we may hope fora speedy,
just, and honorable peace.
In testimony whereof I hereunto set
my hand and seal, this the 17th day
of April, in the year of our Lord one
thousand eight hundred and sixty-one.

Stand by the Old Flag !
The Atelligencer the leading Demo
cratic paper in Lancaster county—Mr.
Buchanan's home organ—has the fol
lowing in relation to the duty of the
Democratic party in the present war.
"Now that war has commenced—no
matter who is at fault—it is the duty
of all our citizens, irrespective of par
ty, to stand by the old flag, with its
glorious stars and stripes, and sup
port the Government in all proper and
legitimate efforts to bring the contest
to a successful issue. The first blow
was struck by the Secessionist; and
now it becomes the duty of every pa
triot to lend his aid in sustaining the
honor and glory of our common coun
try. If we have a Government that
is capable of protecting and perpetua

strength, and the people must stand
by it no matter who is at the helm.—
We go for our country, our whole
country, and nothing but our country.
