Paper.—The price of printing paper has again advanced. editors arc now paying over one hundred anti ffty per cent. more for paper than formerly vanco continues, (and wo see no prospect anything else,) we really fear many count papers will bo compelled to suspend and go under. Subscribers should think ofthis, and. pay up promptly. Formerly, editors could afford to trust for one, two, and even three years, but this practice cannot be thought of these times—-it costs too much. We intend to collect, and shall make a “ forward move ment" on some three hundred delinquents before,long. This wo/nre determined on.— We have iiinted to certain non-pftyingpa/nms long enough. We will now act . Prisoners at Richmond. —That the Union prisoners at Richmond (some 15,000, we he •lieve,) are suffering for Die necessaries of life—food, medicines, clothing, &c.—has been fully ascertained. IVo learn that the rebel authorities have .consented to permit succor to bo sent to these suffering men from their friends in'the loyal States. Wo notice also, that meetings are being held in the various towns in the North having for their object • the.rendering of relief, by contributions, to the prisoners. AVo suggest, therefore, that we hold a meeting in Carlisle, for the same object; Let us all unite in an effort to allo- ; viato the sufferings of our friends who are in prison at Richmond, Scores are suffering for food, medicines, clothing, delicacies, &o. Let us send them relief, now that it is in our power. , If a meeting should bo called —and this we suggest —we hope our agricultural friends in the adjoining townships may turn out and attend it. They have many articles—hams, dried beef, dried fruit, &o.; that.might be contributed to the sufferers with great bene fit. Let’s have a meeting on the subject, nt once. Yon of Thanks. —At the mooting of the Eastern Synod’ of the German Reformed Church, in this place, the following resolu tion was adopted-: “ Unsolved, That this Synod will long re member the kind and Christian reception and courtesy given them by the Pastor and mem bers of'the German Reformed Congregation and other citizens of Carliso, at its annual sessions amongst them, and pray that the promises that are recorded in God’s word to them who are given to hospitality, maybe happily realized by them, and that the Pas tor bo requested to read this resolution to his people, and also request its publication in the papers of the place." The Pastor and Consistory of the German Reformed Church in this place, cordially unite in the above expression of grateful feel ing towards the citizens of the liberal Christian hospitality with which they aided them, in affording entertainment for the members of synod, and shall be pleased to reciprocate their kindness whenever op portunity affords it. . 017“ A cotemporary wants to know how the Republican party makes itself out a Union party, when its leaders all declare that “ it is neither possible por desirable to save the old Dnioa.” K 7” A Doleful Sound.—Listening to your " hettcr-hair >! scrapiDg thebottom of the flour barrel.

By our Ohio exchanges wo have the official vote cast in that State for Governor on the 13th ult. The whole vote polled was 432,680, Brohoii, Abolitionist, reoeived'247,2l6 ; \ al landiohau, Democrat, received 185,464. — Brough's majority 61,752. "When’’we-consider the ton thousand -unfair , expedients the Abolitionists resorted to— their palpable and gigantic frauds, the mil lions of “ green-backs” expended, their mis l representations of Vai.i.anl-igiiam’s senti ments, and the despotic power exorcised by the National and State administrations, it.is wonderful that the Democrats made ns good a light as they did. We have no doubt what- ever, if fairness could prevail, that Vali.an digram is, in fact, the chosen Executive of Ohio. In looking over tho returns we notice that he carried thirty-five counties by hand some majorities, and in ten other counties lie came within a few votes of his opponent.— Ilia vote in the State (185,464,) is considera ble larger than was ever received by any Governor of Ohio! Brough’s majorities in ten or twelve counties, however, nro so over whelming th at oven Republicans are compell ed to admit that “ they are unaccountable.” For instance, the vote -cast in some eight counties exceeds, by sev.oral .thousand, tho entire number of taxabies in those counties 1 In one box in one of the large counties 210 men fioore, (after tho election,) that they had votcd'fol- Vam.andioham, when only TOtotes had.becn returned for him. In another box his vote -as returned was 65, but 186 men snore they-bad voted for him 1 Thus, it is evident, that the most gigantic frauds were i porpotratesl in all tho Abolition counties. — The Abolitionists of Ohio even eclipsed their friends in Pemfsjlvnma, rind were moro'mn blushing in their villainies. AV.e repeat it, then, as our firm belief, that Yallanihgiiaji is the chosen Governor ot Ohio, by a very large majority. .Never,in the history of our country was such a fight made against a man. . First, for the purpose of preventing him taking the stump and vin • dicating'his principles, they banished him from the country, Thiscircumstancc alone, his friends believe, lost him .20,000 votes. — Then they flooded the State with “green backs/' and bought up the venal and corrupt: more than this,, hundreds of culprits were pardoned andtaken from the prisons to vole for Bhocgk, and the efforts ot„'thousands of contractors and “ loyal" thieves were unceas ing- and unscrupulous. But, the greatest piece of villainy remained to he perpetrated, Abou.t four days previous to the election, they got up a forgery, in the shape of a letter, with Yallanuighau’s name attached to it. This letter purported todmvc'hcon written by Yallandigiia’m while he was in the South, to a “ Col. Insuall," a rebel officer, and pro posed to surrender Ohio into the hands of the rebels immediately after the election ! /The genuineness pf this letter was vouched for by a member of Lincoln’s cabinet, who said Col. Insiiall bud been taken a prisoner by our forces and the letter found in his possession 1 Two hundred thousand copies, of this letter were distributed in Ohio on the eve of the election. ..The effect was wonderful. Hun dreds and thousands of Vallandigham’s best friends irr alb sections of the State dropped him, and regarded him a traitor. The letter, as w-c have said, was a forgery—Vallandig i iiam never having written a line on politics 1 while in the South. No such man as “Col. Infiiai.l" had been arrested by our troops, nor was a man of that name ever known.— Tb'e whole thing was a most infamous forgery and lie, got up by the Lincoln administra tration. After the election the Abolition pa pers of Ohio acknowledged the forgery. The publication of this letter, the Ohio Statesman thinks, lost •Vallandigiiam 40, or 50,000 Totes. „ ms a ,man of superior If this ad After resorting to nil these infamous expe-' dients, one would suppose the Abolitionists of Ohio had about exhausted their ingenuity. I -But, stuffing the ballot-boxes and making false 1 returns, had to be the winding up of the con spiracy. At least 50 or 00,000 fraudulent and manufactured votes were counted for Brough! This is tho “ great victory in'Ohio,” then, that “loyal” thieves nyo crowing over. In tho name of justice,. honor and right, must such things bo submitted to by the people of Ohio ? Is our Government really at an end, arid avo we hereafter to bo ruled by military usurpers and scoundrels? - It seems so. The Soi.niEßs’ A r OTE. —Tho lowa States man tolls us how the vote of the soldiers in tho Gold was cast so solidly in favor of the Abolition candidates. It says it learns from reliable officers high in oonTmand that “ no Democratic newspapers Or documents were allowed to reach the soldiers, and that, drawn up in tho form,of a hollow square, they were harangued by their officers to vote tho Abo lition ticket; That on the opening of the polls in many .regiments the .men were ar ranged fn line of.battlo and an officer passed along the line distributing Abolition tickets and no-.others ; and when all were supplied with tickets marched them in a body tg the polls, and under the rigors of military disci pline compelled them to vote. It is asserted that Democratic tickets were not to bo had. Boys eighteen and twenty years of ago were allowed to vote, and when officers were noti fied that they were under age, replied that if they were old enough to fight, they were old enough to vote.” “^HtfARJiiNG.”—Gov. Andrew, of Massa chusetts, promised Mr. Lincoln that if he would issue a proclamation freeing the slaves of the South, “ the roads from New England to would swarm with recruits.” Tho President did issue tho Abolition Proc lamation, but tho roads aforesaid did not swarm, etc. But, when the draft was about to be enforced, the roads from New England to Canada swarmed with Abolition skedad dlofs, thick us blackberries, and it is believed the Provost , Marshals will never bo able to “ hive” them. 1 A Draft for :Sixtt Thousand. —The num ber of men to be drafted from this State) un less her quota shall bo filled up by volunteer ing by the Ist of January, (the prospect of which does not seem very promising at pros-’ ent,) will bo about 60j000—that is, her quota ‘of 38,208*volunteers, with, tho deficit on the last.draft added. O’ GoingUp.—The price of printing pa per. , A-'-Rate of Little, Brainless, Fanatical nnd Oreedy Officeholders. The froth-nnd’soum that is thrown to the surface of a boiling cauldronjs a fit illustra tion of the quality and character of the men which the present revolution against exist ing institutions has elevated to place'and power. It is true that there ar-e some men who hold office at this time to whom this re mark does not apply, hut they constitute the exception and not the- rule. There was a time when to hold official position was looked upon as* high honor. This was so because men were selected and voted for by the peo ple because they possessed Hie tiualitrcs which fitted them for the discharge of official duties. Is ho'honest? Is he capable? Is he tho representative of political principles in accordance with the institutions and the Constitution of his country? Those were questions which, if answered in the affirma tive, entitled the candidate for office to the suffrages of a ,free people., Men elected upon such grounds were generally true to -their constituents and true to themselves. In stead of office conferring dignity upon them, they, through their -untarnished honor and honesty, their many -acquirements -and hon orable position in society, conferred dignity upon the office. How is it now ? ■ Mr. Lin ,-coln was elected to'tho Presidency, not by tho voice of a majority of-the American peo ple, for -the majority never wanted him Pres ident, but bya minority —successful through an unfortunate division in-that party, which, for the greater portion of half a century, had guided, and guided so well, the ship of State. His election, upon- political principles so hos* tile to tho existing institutions of tho coun try, occasioned an armed revolution in the policynnd oharaotorof tho government at the North, -A vast'majority of th-d men of enlarged political knowledge and of great experience in public -affairs stood appalled at the reckless indifference with which con stitutional restraints were broken assundcr, innovations upon established and funda mental political axioms were sanctioned-,, and the most alarming usurpations effected. In too many instances, instead -of meeting the crisis,with firmness ami casting the weight of their influence on the side of the Constitu tion, the laws, justice and right, they quailed before the threatened- storm ; afraid of pop ular pb'renzy, they closed their mouths and 1 stifled the impulses and promptings 61 truth and justice in the face of a powerful and ar rogant party, flushed with victory and drun ken with power. The political honesty, the experience, and the brains of the country re tired into obscurity; while the void was filled by men of no experience ami with Tittle knowledge of political affairs; in many cases men of questionable honesty, a v iid in fact by a.conglomerated mass of ignorant, excitable, fanatical, dishonest wretches. Wo are firmly of the opinion that the leading men now in power never intended that the Uni"n should be restored in any event. Wo believe that at that memorable time when a reasonable compromise of the national troubles, similar to that proposed by Mr. Cuittrndivn*, would have saved the Union, and that without the effusion of one drop of blood, these birds oj evil omen flocked to the Capital and throw evVfy obstacle in their power in the way ol a further contiuance’of the Union. Knowing that the South was almost to a man hostile to their revolutionary principles, and that the.only way they could make sure of con tinued power was to split asunder the Union and make themselves masters of one of its fragments, they have, from that,day to this, ommitted no moans of effecting their wicked and hell-deserving purpose. They had also become insane on the sub ject of the negro, and were willing to shake hands and join in a solemn oath 10 use their wiiole power for his liberation. They swore that the negro should-bo liberated, if in do ng it they spilt the grand fabric of the Amer ican Union into a thousand pieces. Added ; bo their fanaticism and thirst for power, an other equally potent influence led them to the same end. Greed fur money was an in spiring influence. No flock ol buzzards ever gathered around their victim while it was writhing in the agonies of death, with mure joyous croak, and sharpened their bills for a repast with greater glee, than these hungry myriads uf-Abolition office seckere-exhibited when they gathered at Washington ou_thc. inauguration of the “President, for the pur- r pose of feasting on the agonized body of their country. , This vast array oL_corniomhfs could never bo 'supplied with civil offices, and the promises so liberally made would have to be broken. But war might furnish the means of regarding these partisans.— Away to the dogs with all honorable com promise, say they. “Give us war!” AVe will conscript Democrats to'fight; they are good enough food for powder; while wo will hold all the offices and get all the fat con tracts. So Avar commenced, and in order to awaken popular enthusiasm in its favor, the most stupendous and wicked swindle ever perpetrated since the World began was palm ed off on the American people, in pretending that the war was for the preservation of the Union*' The game, however, worked admir ably. All the golden eagles in the treasury were soon gobbled up and stowed- away in the fathomless pockets of army contractors. This was only as a drop in the bucket. Can ning and unprincipled m<sn held the control of the purse strings of the Federal treasury. Having succeeded in getting their hands into Uncle Sam's pockets, they soon devised ways and means fur getting their hands ,in the pockets of the people. The obligations of the Constitution were to them but cobwebs, to be swept away at will; and though prohib ited from using bills for a legal tender in the place of gold and silver, they violate the lawl Paper promises to- pay from ma chines that never rest, and constitute the magic wand through which the Administra tion holds supreme command of every piece of money and every valuable thing in all the • States of the. Union.. Not ofily this, but an other fruitful source of revenue has been invented —wo say invented, for it was un known at the time of the formation of our Government; that is the Conscription, with another infernal invention; the three hun dred dollar condition in it. By means of it Undo Sam ,bas, not only one band in the pockets of the people, but witli thc other ho - grasps their throats, and it becomes—your life or ypur money I Give me. throe hundred dollars or gd and offer up your lives os sacrj ficos to -the negrol While two and ,a half years of war has sacrified a quarter of a mill ion of brave 'men at the North alone, and brought desolation to the homes of the peo ple, this band of conspirators against the public liberty are fattening off the miseries of their country. More than two thousand millions of dollars have gone into their gree dy hands. They steal also from the ■Govern ment by the million, and why not? -It is,all plunder.

Uo entered into re- Qocnizanco with Robert Wilson, Tobias Ilu" pert and George'Bnbb as surety, but after getting free, he gave them “ leg bail” and cleared out again, llis recognizance was forfeited. Unconstitutiomauty of the Conscrip tion Act. —Important Decision of the Su preme Court of 1 cnnsylvania. —ln the Su preme Court of this State, at Pittsburg, CP the 10th inst., Chief Justice Lowuie rendered a decision in the matter of the application ol threedraftedtaen belonging to Philadelphia, who filed, bills in Equity to test the cor.stitn rationality of the Conscription act. The ap plications wore for injunctions to restrain the Government officers from sending the complainants into the military service. The Chief Justice decided the act of Congress unconstitutional , and granted preliminary injunctions in each case. Concurrent Opin ions were road'by Justices Woodward and Thompson, and dissenting opinions by Jus tices Strong and Read. . Justice Woodward sums up- bis opinion in the following words : “ I rest my objections to its constitution ality upon these grounds: Ist. That the power of Congress to raise and support armies does not include the pow er to draft the militia of the States. 2d. That the power of Congress to call forth the militia cannot bo exercised in the forms of this enactment. 3d. That a citizen of Pennsylvania can not bo subjected to the rules and articles of war, until he is in actual military.service. 4th. That he is not placed in such actual service when his name has been drawn from a wheel, and ten days’ notice thereof has been served upon him. For these reasons I am for granting the injunction.” As a majority of the Supreme Benclf makes its decisions, this settles the question of the constitutionality of the Conscription Law. unless it be over ruled by the Supremo Couft of the United States, or by—tho “ higher law” of Federal Dictatorship, . . (£7" Where did President Lincoln got the power to order the enlistment of tho negro slaves in Maryland, in opposition to the wish es of their masters, and then pay three hun dred dollars for each enlisted' man out of tho public.funds? Congress never gave him any such power. 0“ Impertinence often passes for wit among the vulgar. A rural editor, having published' a long leader on “ hogs,” a rival paper upbraided him for obtruding his farai- upon tho public. Prostitution in Washington. —The Re jnlhlican, of Washington, says there are 15,000 prostitutes in that city, of which 5,000 are from tho.oity of Now York. h< The Mti/K in the Cocoanut.”— The num ber of influences which the oflicerg of a gov ernment with an immense army under- its control, can bring to bear upon the virtue erf men, is multitudinous. The present Ab olition programme is to subjugate the south ern half of the Union, blot out all the State Governments, oonfisqatp the property and distribute the spoils among the party m pow er. The scheme is fts splendid and illusory ns it is fatal and corrupt. Yet there .arts thou; sands affected by moreenary motives who are daily assenting to this plan of revolution and plunder, and lire ready to, take part in the attempt to carry it out. < o have men of this class in net- midst--a fact-which ipi.- fieienllv accounts Ton the new dnd extraorUi nnrv views of loyalty” which have suddenly enlightened the minds of some of our citizens, whose patriotism is equal to their intclli- ° To speak more plainly . We are creditably informed that a commission has been ap pointed by the War Department to confiscate and distribute Southern plantations and Southern real estate among the leading loy al” men of the North, and that quite a res pectable number of the residents of this State have had cotton plantations assigned to them upon lenses for a nominal consideration. Wo state a fact generally which will not be denied in Milwaukee, and which will throw some light upon the-political movements of the enemies of the Democracy. —Milwaukee News. If ejter the transactions of this war are exposed, the people will stand appalled at the enormity of the villainies, while tlio op erators'will call upon the rooksnnd hills to hide them. -- ‘ ; Thanksgiving.— ln his proclamation set ting apart Thursday, the 26tK instant, to bo. a day of thanksgiving and prayer, Governor Seymour, of New York, makes a suggestion in relation to the destitute families of soldiers and sailors, which we should like to see uni versally complied with. He says ; “ Let us offer fervent prayer that the re bellion may be put down,, our Union saved, our liberty preserved, and our Constitution and government upheld. As a becoming proot of our thankfulness to God,.and as a proper evidence of our grat itude to the armies and navy, I urge our citizens to nmke contributions on that day for the comfort and support of the destitute families of those who have lest their, lives or booomo disabled in the service of their conn- try. In the midst of our abundance let ns re member charity, to those who are in want, and in the hour set apart for Rooml-and roll g\oua thanksgiving and praise withVn the UraUfl of Nuvv State let us encourage tbme who are engaged on distant and dangerous fields of duty by showing sympathy and kindness towards their lamilies, which need, 1 •our aid and support. . t Scarcity in tab South.—Provisions arc 00 scarce in Richmond, tljat.thp hungry man must first prove that he has eaten his last mpal before lip can huy another. tflour is scarce at s*s per barrel, wheat at $lO per bnsholi and’corn at sl4' 50 ; chickens §6‘to $8 per pair; turkeys $l2 to $l5 apiece; cab bages $1 25 per head, &e. This is not a tem porary and local scarcity. The Southern press concur in representing the destitution as prevalent throughout the,South. In fact, the food question excites more °con, corn than the operations of the contending armies.' To add to their other troubles;,the Southern peo ple are now becoming alarmed by the pro spective want of fuel. The occupation of Eastern Tennessee and the incertitude of affairs in Northern Georgia have completely cut off their supply of coal, ami the distance which wood has to travel to reach the vari ous points of demand, operate as an absolute prohibition upon, its use. .Somebody's Question Anhwered. — Some one—a woman, perhaps, as they are so in quisitive—inquires why, when Eve Was cre ated from a spare rib<a servant wasn’t made ni the same to wait upon her? Somebody else—a woman, wo imagine—replies in the following train: •‘Because Adam never came whining to Eve with a ragged stocking to be darned, collar string to be sewed on or glove to mend * right away, quick, nowl’ , Because ho nev er read the papcr’until the sun got down be hind the palm trees; and then stretching him self, yawned out, ‘ supper most ready, my dour?’ Not he. lie made the fire anil hung the kettle over it himself, we’ll venture ; ami nulled the radishes, peeled the potatoes, and di<l everything else he ought to do. lie milked thecews. fed the chickens, and looked, after the pigs himself. never brought half a dozen friends to dinner, when Eve hadn’t any fresh pomegranates and the mango sea son was over, lie never'stayed out till 11 o’clock -to a ward meeting, hurrahing for an out-uud-uut candidate, and then scolding be cause poor Eve was sitting up and crying inside the gates. Ite’never played billiards, rolled ten 7 pins, .and drove, fast horses, nor choked Eve with tobacco smoke. lie never . loafed around.corner groceries while Eve was rocking 'little Cain’s cradle at homo. In short, he didn’t think she was especially cre ated for the purpose of waiting on him. and wasn’t under the impression that it disgraced a man to lighten a wife’s cares a little.— That's the reason Eve didn’t need a hired girl; and with it was the reason that her fair deaceneanta did.” That woman has a very unreasonable way of putting things. She ought to be supj pressed. “ Resolved, That the earth is the Lord’s, and its heritage belongs to His Saints.’ Resolved, That wo are His Saints.’* The above are the resolutlons said to have been passed by a convention of superfine re ligious men, who imagined themselves to be tho true Christians, and all tho rest heath ens. The absurdity ot their action is only equaled by the course of some of tho noisy “ loyalists” who fill our public offices, and advocate “ no party,” so that they may bo able to retain them. These persons, if not by actual words, by every day conduct, de clare as follows : Resolved, That wo are the only patriotic men in the community. Resolved , That all others are Copperheads and Traitors. Resolved , That as only “loyal men” should bo in office; all efforts to remove us are sym pathy with treason. IC7" Mr. Lincoln and his proclamation for thiee hundred thousand more of course wants Loyal JQnion men. Now, if the Abolition “party have been telling the truth, this does not mean Democrats, for they are Copperheads, rebels and tories. Who would think of putting rebels in the Union army ?
