" THE IRON REEL."
• In the New York World, of Tuesday
April 80th, is an article under the above
caption, commenciug: IT there is one
" American citizen who can read the
" letter of Gen. Pope, to Gov. Jenkins,
of Georgia. of Gee. Sickles, to Gee.
" Clitz,and the warning of Gen. Schofield,
" to the Richmond Times, and yet, not
" feel his blood boiling in every 'artery,
" he is more to be pitied than any citizen
"of the prostrate, helpless South. It is
" mare degraded to be insensible than to
" suffer." Now, waiving the almost ir
i tsistable desire We feel to deCote a few
lines to a criticism of the grammar of the
article in question, or at least of the part
quoted above, we proceed to analyze the
animus of the article,—intense hatred of
the Government which they, in vain, at
tempted to destroy,—as shown in the
Editor's attempt to make the honest and
ftithful and fearless discharge of duty by
these ;l-enerals, each in his proper sphere,
appears like a tyrannical exercise of pow
er. WI et are the facts in these cases?
Pa=-ins by Gen. Pope's letter to Gov.
Jenkins, which we have accidently mis
laid. Gen. Sickles finds a great celebration
on the tapis, in Charleston. S. C., a part
of which is to be a parade of the whole
Fire Department of the city, under the
charge of Chief of the Department,
Gen. Glitz, assisted by his deputies, and
he finds-Olaf :env-mg all the banners and
emblems to be displayed to the citizens of
Charleston, on-that-occasion, the Ameri
can Flag was nowlfdre to be seen. Now,
Gen. Sickles would be clearly entitled to
admission into the nearest insane asylum,
without the intervention of a jury de
Infiatico iuguirendo, if he could for one
moment suppose that this omission was
accidental.; not hcing, accidental, it was
of course a studied insult to the Flag, and
--that, too, at the very head-qUarterSOrthe
Commander of the Department. Now,
Gen. Sickles is: * of the opinion that the
American Flag demands and must reeeire
from every one living under the protees
tiou of its folds, at Itiast a sli n? ofrespect,
and'-he issued an order that the proces
sion-should not move until a flag was pro
mired, and that when so procurred, it
should occupy the post of honor in the
procession, and be saluted accordingly—
" the head and front of his offending.
hath, this extent—no more." Does any
one possessing a just appreciation of the
duty of an American citizen, blame him,
or say that he transcended his duty in
the premises?
What was the unpardonable offence of
Gen. Schofield ? Simply this:—The Rich
mond Times—which, under the prmpt
ines of such priers as the N. Y. World.
Day-Book, - Plulad'a Age, el id °moue
genus, has been growing daily more and
more violent in its attacks upon the Gov
ernment, and thereby seriously obstruct
ing the worth of re-organization in the
South,—was informed by the Military
Commander of the Department, that it
must moderate its tone, or its issue would
be suppressed. Now, this conduct, which
every patriot—be he Democrat or Re
yid:diem—must cordially endome, is made
. a.premxt by the World, fur setting up a
howl about tyranny," and the Iron
Heel" of despotic power. In all kindness
we ?:ould caution the World and its fol
lowers, • against, any longer instigating
their Southern allies to imp )s,e their feeble
arts to resist the execution of the laws
enacted by Congress. The South, and
the world, (not only the N. Y. Meg
but the civilized world,) must be taught
that in this country the people are sorer
eign, that the people speak through their
representatives in Congress, and that
when they have so spoken they can and
acill make their voice heard, and not only
heard, but obeyed—despite the bicker
logs and petty party prejudices of the
whole Copperhead pack.
Congress passed the 14th Article, (bet
ter known as the " Constitutional Amend
ment,") and kindly offered it to the South ;
the South would have gladly accepted it,
but for the interference of the Copper
head press of the North, it was rejected.
Congress then passed the Military
District Bill; it would have been grace-
fully accepted, (although not quite, so
sugar-coated as the 14th Article,) but; for
the continued opposition of . the save
Northern Press. Now.!et these Northern
papers continue tlMir incendiary appeals
to the South to oppose the inevitable, and
the next session-of Congress will be com
pelled in self-defence, to pass a law more
stringent than any that has yet been pro
posed.
A little more aid from the North, may
place the South in a condition to pray for
Stevens' Confiscation Bill as a relief froth
the severity of the lasts which will have,
to be passed to screen the country from'
the plottingsof_its eneinies. Then, pro.
Way they may learn what is meant by
Ib.e " Iron Hod."
Ingratitude.
While the whole North is engaged in
raising subscription's' of funds and grain
for gratuitous distribution among the peo
ple of the South, win., by their blind fol
lowing of the fortunes of the Slave Lords
under Demociwtir teachings, have become
impoverished, and are now dependent
upon the charity of their .more favored,
because more ?opal ; brethren of the North,
anti while the Government, through the
Freedmen's Bureau, is relieving all eases
of extreme destitution which come under
its notice. It is certainly refreshing to
read in the Democratic (?) papers, the
old party cries about the Bureau feeding
a pack of " lazy niggers," when the re
ports from the different departments show
that in the aggregate operations of the
Bureau, the number of rations issued to
whites, was greater by 20 or 40 per cent.
than that issued to blacks, and that, too,
in the earlier days of the institution, be
fore we heard anything about destitution
in the South, and before arrangements
had been made to secure employment for
the freed people; now the relief afforded
to whites through that same agency is
many times greater than that afforded to,
Cl' needed I. y, the blacks, who are a self
supporting people when an opportunity is
al:ozred them to be so; and yet the same
cry is heard, and appeals arc constantly
being made to these saute destitute people
in the South, by their old allies of .the
North, to throw all the obstacles they
possibly can in the way of the Govern
ment, which is doing all it can to hasten
the work of rehabilitation, so that the
South may once more become a land of
peace, plenty and prosperity, which it
would have been ere this, had it not been
for the insane desire of the Democratic
party to regain, through the aid of the
South, the power whieh has passed away
from them, neve; to return. But though
it IS impossible to approach the Democrat
ic party by any of the ordinary channels,
i. e., by appeals to their patriotism,
humanity, Sce., they certainly have yet
in their ranks, men who can be amenable
to reason and argument, and to them we
would say that Antony, in speaking of
th e bl oo dy dayrjers that drew the life
blood of' Caesar, thought them light in the
.Editor
scales when weighed against the " ingrat
itude" of Brutes, which, " more strong
than Traitors' arms, quite vanquished
him." Now do these same papers that
are daily devoting all their energies to
the abuse of the Government, by whose
magnanimity alone they are suffered to
exist, ever consider that their ingratitude
may work mischief—not as in Caesar's
else, against the object of their hate. viz :
the Government, but against their friends
in the South? Their lessons are being
learned in the South, and their vitupera
tions are being repeated by such sheets
as the R,icltmond Times : and " ingrati
tude, More strong than Traitors' arms,"
may succeed in " stamping out" the feel
ing of compassion which has been awaken
letl in the North, by the cry of distresS
61-klieg up *OlO the South.
We say then to the Copperhead papers,
One and all, either cease the howl of dis
satisfaction at each and every act of the
Government, or cease the pretence of - be
ing hielred -there to by anyifeeling of re
gard fey the South, and conic odt openly
as did Jeff Davis, Lee, S:e., ke., assume
the task which they have abandoned as
hopeless, , and let the- South proceed in
the work of re-organization untrammelled
by your aid.
IT DON'T take' mach to be a ITern
ocratie hero orsaint now-a-days. Time was,
when the party possessed its Jefferson,
Madison, &c., &e., and in later days, it
delighted to do honor to such men as

i•lr. Benedict was a representative of
Huntingdon county in the State Legisla

of the House of Representatives in 1.864,
which post he has singe filled with ability
and credit to himself, and with advantage
to the State and party. 11e is said to have
started the first penny paper in Philadel
phia—a credit which is open to argument.
He was a venerable looking man, white
haired and more than silty years of age.
He had the duties of ' his,position at his

1865.- to be not less than forty million of

past, two dollars per gallon ; yet instead of

have derived, the returns of the last fiscal

GRACE'S CELEBRATED SALVE.
From M r. IlTooten,Depot master, al Salisbury, MAIM
I has:e.been troubled for year. with a bad humor;
sometimes orawardly, and sometimes inwardly.
During the past summer it manifested itself more
than usual outwardly, and I used your Salve. All
signs of it have since disappeared, without affecting
me inwardly, indicating, I think, the eradicating.
nature of the Salve."

A plain statement of facts. I inherited Scrofula
and many of my relations have died of it. In 1820
'my case was frightful. Turmas slid ulcers spread
until in 1842, under the advice of my physicians I
went to ,Ivon Springs. I received no benefit—tried
every medicine anti did everything I could. I had
to rest my arm on a cushion. and had not been able
to raise it to my head for over a year. The dis-
Charge front two ulcers was nearly a pint a day.
-Imputation was recommended ; but pronounced
dangerous. I could not sleep. and my sufferings
were Intolerable. A 11 iend brought me an English
physician who applied a attire with which he said he
had accomplished extraordinary cures in the
hospitals in England. It commenced to relieve; I
persisted in its use; it finally effected a perfect awl
mitre core. It is now 1848. It is five years since I
had the appearance of a scrofulous sore, and my
health dins been good ever since. I procured the
receipt of this wonderful article—this blessing of
humanity—and have vatted it "PASS'S CLIMAX SALVE,"
and allow the public to use it or 110 L as they choose.
This is a brief but candid statement, given more
fully in my circular. J. 21. PAGE.
