the town in the neighborhood of :the

excitement on Monday last by having
two fights on hand. The parties were
noisy with much whiskey on board;
they tore up the ground and, made the
blood fly promiscuously. The la.A
party was scattered by an oftiter who'se
sudden appearance turned the noise
and fuss into peace and quietness. We
think. some of them- had too much
"punch," at least about the eyes.

"Already the dangers of such a plan
have-been foreshadowed by,the course
of the' Democratic party in Pennsylva
nia„ so early ; as January, 1861, in an:
1 tieipation of the war net then begun.
' Even' then , the 'leaders of that party
passed' a resoluition, to the principles
of which they have since adhered; de
claring„
that in the event of separation
Pennsylvania ought, and legally might
join the Southern Confederacy. Grant
such a right, strip the Government of
power to preserve the Union after the
separation of a State, and what a chaos
of ruin would follow, Should the rebel
lion accomplish its objects. We are
wont to talk of the weakuess of the
South; but all the nattlEms of the world
combined' could not destroy us so
completely as the South may, should,
these monstrous doctrines be carried
out to their practical results. This,
indeed, may well be a war to preserve
the Union,
if such tire to be the conse
quences of disunion.
"Perhaps the Northern people may '
choose, and, may have .the power to
preserve the Union against the wishes
of the South. They may determine
to conquer the South, and to hold it
in subjection by military.foi et , . They
have offered to 'the Southern people
from the commencement of the, war,
peace, good will, in their former equal
and honorable position under, the Gov

the home of Indian tripes. 'Perhaps
these Norsemen of America may say,
'' This, Southern .country is out's by

so ; we will reject them from the Union,

us abolitionists. We accept the title,
and will abolish slavery,-or anything
else that stands between us and our
purpose. They have attempted to de

them; not its citizens, but its subjects.'
' " This would be a Gothic way of
settling the controversy, and the Goth
ic nature is not extinct, however' soft
ened and refined by culture and civil
ization. The old Norse temper sur
vives and shows itself on the occasion.
What would the English people do in
like circumstances? Would they give
up territory ton threat? Would they
palter and.argith, and negotiate with
a causeless and wicked rebellion, or
-offer concession and compromise in re

they stiffer their empire to be dismem

speedy destruction of our intenfling
murderers. . But look round - the map
of the Cypfederapy,-apti j judge if we
can sootliti otirselVbli'witli this 'belief'.

the famous maiden city of this hemi
sphere, the bulwark of the West; so
he it but the vision we see on the
Mississippi does not look very much
like exhaustion or despair on the part'
of the foe just yet..
And again, look to the mouth of the
mighty river. New Orleans is not a
maiden city, alas ! the base rag that
has been so often rent - and trampled
before Richmond and before Vicks
burg, flies from all the towers of that
deflowered city. Hordes of hungry
Yaokees, armed to the teeth, sit in
the shade of her orange groves, and
station negro guards over the man- I
sions of her noblest citizens. All her
best and fairest have to lament every I

From Norfolk all around by Chesa
peake and Potomac, We are guarded
by gunboats, and no living thing (save
skulking smugglers,) suffered to enter
or go out. On the frapikthiftinock two
hundred thousand men wait for a dry
ing wind to move " on to Richmond "
once more, led by a genuine apostle of
extermination. .At last, the savage
Abolitionistd of Massachusetts have
the right man in the right place.—
lieretotbre they have rather wished
the defeat of Lincoln's Generals on
the Potomac, because they seemed to
be soldiers, and not thieves or assas
sins; but with Hooker they feel at
home; under Booker they count upon
owning Southern plantations and giv
ing law to Southern vassals. To pos
sess himself of the property of' others,
a genuine Yankee will, perhaps even
fight.
And Northwestern Virginia is deso
lated by Milroy and his men; and Ken
tucky and the half of Tennessee, the
richest and fairest lands of the West,
are entirely in the clutch of the enemy,
while the rivers brings them up fleets
of' transports, and Rosecrans, with an
other large army, threatens to sweep
all oppositions from his path and join
the other brig ands who are DOW crowd
ing upon Vicksbuq,*
Where, in all this wide circuit, does
the invasion seem to be fainting or
giving ground? • All around the bor
der,
and in the very heart of the Con
federaey, the foot of the enemy is'
planted and his felon flag flies ; and it
'mean's subjugation and extermination.
It is, indeed, the third stage of the
.;year, and we believe the last; bat, the
'stt•uggle will be desperate. flit be the

stake is life or death, honor or shame

efforts to crush the rebellion. And

these Northern traitors their particu

shame, and every, motber,'S son of
them ought to ho buhg tip. 'Fort Mc-

gro cannot be taken in. They enjOY
the liberties 'and' privileges of a free
country, and it is no more than right
that they should help defend theGov
ernment' in its licuir of adversityA-
And I know by observation that the
negro will fight. We have a negro in
our regiment; he cooks for Company
C, and has been in three fights, Me
chanicsville, Gaines' Hill, and South
Mountain. At Gaines' Hill I saw him
when he began to lid' back on the sec
dad line. The enemy were taking
some of diii• boys prisoners; Jack yell
ed out, " Guess dey wont take dis
chap ; lumber tin de rear," and
darkey was right, for it Was little quar
ter they would have shown him hi
South Mountain. He was slightly,
wounded, hut he still hangs to the re
giment. Ile is a Baltimore fleet),
and is good stuff."
Tribute to a Departed Hero.
Among the many good and brave
citizens . of HuntittgdOii county that
have fallen jn the defenedef qer rights,
we may truly inscribe the • Darili) "of
SAMUEL LAPORTE, a worthy and eon-
sistent member of Company I, Stir Re
giment, P. R. C. When time call for
volunteers resounded throughput this
Commonwealth, he was anioni, the
first to enroll his name as a soldier to
battle for the cause of truth and right,
and to protect the Constitution and •
laws of our glorious Republic. He ac-,
ted well and nobly his part. For 20
weary months he endured all the hard
ships incidental to a soldier's life. No
duly .was tOO ardttou4 tObe'perforthed:'
Ho was naturally endowed with a
true and patriotic spirit, and partici
.pated in every engagement in which
his regiment took part, until disease
entered hip system, and 'lie was com
pelled to resign his post. 'Weary
weeks weme spent in the hospital, un
til he was partially restored ,to health.
Ile received an honorable, discharge
from the army, and 'returned home on
the :Id of Rebruary. lint long, he
was again' taken sick with typhoithfe
ver and pleurisy. The kind attentions
of physician and frieddscpuld not save
him from the ravages of this.UValig
nant fever. his Constitution beitig
wrecked by the exposure of cant') life
he sunk rapidly, and.on the 10th',,•pf
February he sunk into, the arms of
death, from which . the claTor of war
t will never more arOuse him. "‘HO is
not dead, but •SleePeth." Around his
name will ever lingez a-halo of honer
spd respect. His deeds and we 11-,earn
ed reputation,as a Union soldier will
ever live in th'e hearts of hii'friendS.- 1 -
History records'the'death - of no brave . r
soldier than the one to whom this
tribute is inscribed. , E. C. •
- INSURE YOUR LIFE.
It' you were to 'die to night, would
you Telivro tliOse Irdependent upon: you
as welt provided for as you would de
sire ?
Dr. Franklin said, g of Life
Insurance is the cheapest and safest
mode of making a certain provision for
one's family. It is strange that men
should be careful to insure thei . r how•
ses, their furniture, &c., and yet neg
lect to assure their lives, the most im
portant of all to their families, and fur
more subject to loss."
No one, upon abed of sickness, ever
regretted making suitable provision
for his family at such n time, a life
policy can be fully appreciated.
Tlw Penn .Mutual Life Insurance
Company of Philadelphia offers superior
inducements. It has a capital of
.91,151,789 50, securely invested. Has
paid losses amounting to $614,000, and
made dividends to the insured amount
ing to over $500,000.
The Trustees have declared a scrip
dividend of 40 per cent. on the cash

to receive the scrip dividends of 1853,
