THE QUESTIONS AT ISSUE The Lewistown Democrat continues to publish articles from >hiuhtfnl journals, holding out the idea that peace can be made or ought to be made between what those papers call the opposing or contend ing sections. 11,w peace is to be made these erudite editors do not saw and while advising that step on the part of the constitutional authorities, they have hardly u word to say to the rebels and traitors who are daily committing acts of war on that government.' There is hut one wav in which peace can be made, and that is for traitors to lay down their arms, restore sto len property and money to the government, and suffer the Southern people to exercise tDe right of representation in C' ngrcss.— I o ask the rulers of our land, elected un der ail the legal forms pointed out by the constitution, tu submit to usurpers of au thority, whose minions have insulted the flag of out country a- it never was insult ed before, would be an act of cowardice and injustice without a parallel in history, and we must confess we doubt that man'? patriotism and loyalty who would advice or sanction such a degrading step. In I*l4, when the New England States were dissatisfied with the war, the Rich mond Enquirer denounced them in un measured terms. That paper, then under the guidance of Thomas Richie, the Nes tor of Southern editors, was a powerful organ of the party which, under the chief tainship of Jefierson and Madison, c mtroll ed the polities of Virginia, and from which the modern States-rights abstractionists claim unbroken succession. When it i considered that the Hartford Convention 1 only talked and deliberated about resist ance, Mr. Richie's fierce denunciation of its contingent treason, and his earnest de nial of the right of secession, present an instructive contrast when compared with the doctrines now enunciated by the Kn (purer Here is its language : Turn tu the Convention of Hartford, and ieurn t > tr-'mble at the madness of its authors. llow far will such doctrine advance? Though they conceal from you the project of disun ion, though a few oi them may have Conceal ed it from themselves, yet who will pretend to act bounds to the rage of di-affection 9 One false step after another may lead them to re sistance to the laws, to a treasonable neutral \[y>. tr \ V var a g ainst tliS Government of the I mted States. In truth, the first ■ o jfresi*- tar to the law is treason to the Dalted ©tatt s. Are you f,. r this state of things? A- ill you support the men who will plunge you into this ruin. ...i mart. r>n association of men, no State no set of Stat -s has a right to withdraw itself irom r.iis Lnion, of its own accord. The same power which knit us together can only nnknit [he same formality which forged the links o! the I nion is necessary to dissolve it. The majority of the States which form the I nion must consent to the withdrawal of any one branch of if. I'ntil that cm sent has been obtained, any attempt to dissolve the I nion or to obstruct the efficiency of its con etitutunal laws, is treason—treason to all in tents and purposes. Any other doctrine, such as that - Inch has lately been held forth oy the Federal Republican, that any one State may withdraw itself from the l nion. is an abominable heresy, which strips its auth< r of every possible pretention to the name or c:.a-acter of a federalist. We call, therefore, upon the Government of the t nion to exert its energies when th sea son shall demand it, and sei7e the first trait or who shall spring out of the hot bed of the Convention of Hartford. This illustrious I nion, which has been cemented by the blood of our forefathers, the pride of America, and the wonder of the world, must not he tamely sacrificed to the heated brains or the aspiring hearts of a few malcontents. The Union must be saved when any one shall dare to as sail it. Countrymen of the Kast! We call upon you t i ieep a vigilant eye upon those wretch ed men who would plunge us into civil war and inevitable disgrace. Whatever may be the temporary calamities which may assail us, let us swear upon the altar of our coun try to save the I nion. Such was the language held in 1814 when men assembled together to speak of what they conceived wrongs. Then Vir ginia was for making an example of the first traitor who might spring forth, and the reasoning held by that papc r is just as strong now as it was then It is idle to talk of peace in the way proposed by such sheets as the New York Express, Balti more Sun and other tory papers, and pub lishers and readers of such articles are but misleading themselves when they found hopes on or give credit to such stuff. A peace with traitors, cutthroats, and mobs, would be base and dishonorable, mean and cowardly, and would only put off the e\ il day until those traitors are better prepared to cope with the government.

We condense the principal news into as small a space as possible, not deeming it worth while filling our eulums with vague reports. With the arrival of the New Jer sey quota, over JOOQ men. fully armed and i equipped, the administration has now pro bably over 00,000 men at command, and is preparing to take the offensive, so that no more raids on public property will be permitted. The first step will, or ought to be, the arrest of Maryland traitors, the next a demand on Virginia lor the posses sion of the Navy Yard at Norfolk.Ate., and if refused we hope the government will at once proceed to take theiu by force. In the Border States there is -till much talk of neutrality, alias treason in disguise, hut the people are beginning to understand ' such movements and will act accordingly. Capt. Meigs has returned from lii- recent expedition to Fort Pickens, which, lie say-, is so reinforced and otherwise strengthened as t > make its reduction utterly itnpos.-ible for six months, for which time it is well pro vis ioned. The M *-i-sippi will be kept open to an un ♦axed commerce, anil those attempting to ub struct it or to collect duties from our citizen will he summarily and fearfully puni-hed.— New Orleans will find the mouth of this riv er filled with teeth in the shape of artned ves sels : and it her rulers persist in their desper ate game of collecting revenue not theirs, or of retaining the property and treasure of the : Government and the people, they will be speedily brought to their senses. An immense order has been issued to Gen. James, the inventor of the rifled cannon, fu nding a number of heavy guns, an 1 for -up plying them with his celebrated l-all. The Secretary of Governor Hicks sav- that the app intment of the Committee of Public Safety, n>w pending bef re the Legislature, must precipitate the State irit > civil war, a the majority of (he proposed Board are sworn friends of secession, and men wh idep recate the political fortunes of Gov. Hicks, who may mi have to resort to Washington or the P nr.sylvania line for protection. The great Seal of tlm State is now in Annapolis, and it will he thrown into the Chesapeake sooner than be placed on an ordinance of se cession. The absence of the Seal is an effeo tual veto, a power nut possessed by the Gov ernors of Maryland. The newspapers having circulated numer ous reports affecting the loyalty of General Harney, that officer has published to the world a hdd and manly letter defining his position. He declares that he has followed the flag of the I nion forfortv vears, and that lie will serve the Government which has crier ished and honored him a- long as he draw breath. Secession he deems to be universal anarchy, and regarding -u<-h a course as foil (>f danger to Mis- ,-uri, he implores his fellow citizens of that State to sustain the Union. It is ascertained that the Committee of the Maryland Legislature, in their intervi wwith the President, on Saturday morning, admit ted both the right and power of the Govern ment to bring troops through Baltimore or the State, and to take any measures for the public safety which in the discretion of the President might be demanded, either by ac tual or reasonably apprehended exigencies. I hey expressed their belief that no immediate 1 effort at secession or resistance of Federal au thority would be attempted by the Legisla ture or State authorities, and asked that in this view the State should, as long as possible, be spared the evils of a military occupation, as a more revengeful chastisement, for former ■ transgressions. The President replied that ! iheir suggestions and representations should be duly considered, but that he should now say no more than that the public interest, and •! not any spirit (if revenge, would actuate his measures. Authenticated statements reach Washing i ton daily of persons being forcibly driven : ut of the State of Virginia withe ut having time 1 allowed to them to dispose of their property. • 1 lie cases are numerous. It is not probabi. done by direct order of the authorities, but no steps have been taken to prevent these cru elties; and it does not alter the condition of these unfortunate exiles, whether thov are ' furced from their homes by order of the Gov : ernor or through the frenzy of mob violence. At noon on Sunday, the Fifty-second New ! York Regiment and the Eighth Massachu setts Regiment arrived in a train from Wash ington at the Relay House, seven miles from i Baltimore, and taking possession of the tel ograph wires, planted eight howitzers on the viaduct, investing the entire neighborhood, i 1 he troops have encamped on the grounds of Y\ illiam Talbot, adjoining those of G. W. Bobbin, on the west side of the Patapsco. lhis point is the junction of the Baltimore i and Ohio Road with the Washington branch. ; and gives full command of the road to and from the YVest. The telegraphic communi canon with Harper's Ferry is cut off, as well at •- despatch of munitions of war and ma terial aid for the \ irginia rebels. A correspondence, of which the following is the substance, is said to have passed be tween Governor Hicks, of Maryland, and Governor bprague, of Rhode Island on Fri day or Saturday of last week, by telegraph • Gov. HICKS TO GOV. SPRAOUE.— " I under > stand you are about to proceed to Washing ton with the Rhode Island regiment. I advise you not to take them through Baltimore, and thus save trouble." Gov. SPRACLETOGOV. HICKS.— "The Rhode Island regiment are going to fight, and it matters not whether they fight in Baltimore or Washington." The Ellsworth Zouaves, 1300 strong, com posed of New York firemen, arrived at Wash ington on Saturday. * G Gricr, j n reviewing the treason case or C. A. Greiner who was arrested in Pbila- ' delplna fur assisting at the capture of I <>rt Pulaski, Georgia, discharged him under $lO,- 000 bail, and remarked that he should like to have Mr. Jefferson Davis before him Colonel Prentiss, the commanding officer at Cairo, Illinois, received the following de spatch from three prominent citizens of Cin cinnati : "General Pillow has several steamers ready at Memphis. lie meditates an immediate at tack on Cairo." To which Colonel Prentiss replied : "Let him come. He will learn to dig a ditch on the right side. lam ready." On Friday evening a man made Himself particularly obnoxious to certain people con tied in the neighborhood of Ninth and Green streets. Philadelphia, by reason of his secession sentiments. The man used insult ing language to the stars and stripes, and the crowd took him in custody, and, after apply ing a coating of molasses, plastered it plenti fully with rotf< n, and then left him loose. Three hundred and fifty cavalry left Car lisle on Monday morning for Washington city. These troop*, with those concentrated in York and others that will join them on an understood line of operation, will constitute one division t,f an army that is to approach Baltimore from different points for the purpose of opening a pa-sage directly through to Washington. The appointment of Hon. John A. Dix, of New York, to tlie position of Major General of the New York forces, is a deserved com plum nt to one of the must eminent of our public men. and reflects great credit npon Governor .-'organ. Un the arrival of the New York Zouaves in Washington, and impressed probably by a sen-e of safety IV an the general gathering of forces here, the Secession troops have sud dcr.ly evacuated the city of' Alexandria.— That city has ma le large Secession dem m strations during the three weeks just closed. Prudence would dictate a different policy fur the future, or it will he difficult to restrain the feeling here at their base defection. The b;. ks of the Adjutant General of Pennsylvania, sh w that IC3 companies, be sides the eight Philadelphia regiments, have been accepted and mustered into service.— Twenty-eight regiments and three companies additional are offered, making a total of fifty three regiments accepted and offered up to the 3d inst. The entire number is 41,500. The Gubernatorial Assemblage at Cleve land tin the 4th inst., was composed of the following executives: Governor Curtin. of Pennsylvania : Governor Dennison, of Ohio : (Governor Randall, of Wisconsin : Governor Blair, of Michigan ; Governor Morton, of In diana: Kx-Governor Kearney, of Illinois.— The Cleveland papers speak of this meeting as having created great interest in that city. In the evening the people turned out to si r enade the distinguished v isators. Tim speech of Gov. Curtin. in response to the serenaders, is referred to as having been an eloquent and patriotic eff n t. H v.i bstow.v.

It is more deserving of commemoration, for subordinates in the service are not usually expected to set examples of patriotism and fidelity'in their trusts, but to follow them.

May (s. —Four full regiments of volunteer have been mastered into the United States service, and the Fifth Brigade, formed of the Third and Fourth Regiments. and part of the s>eeond Regi ment, are encamped on the arsenal grounds. The First Regiment is quartered at .Jefferson Barracks, twelve miles below the eity, snd a part of the Second is stationed at the Marine Hospital, about a mile be low the arsenal. A.vhapous, Sunday, May s.—Two suspicions crafts, which are fitting out at Baltimore, will be overhauled in the bay. The Fifth New \ ork Regiment are guarding the railroad. Detachments of the Sixth and Eighth New York Regiments, who were sent up to Severn river, have suffered greatly from eo'd and rain since Friday morning. A large and enthusiastic I'nion meeting was held at Annapolis last night, in which a large number of prominent citizens participated. Resolutions to sus tain the Government were passed. Denni- Claude, who fought a dud with General Scott, presided ..ver the meeting. The appointment of a Board of Bublic Safety was strongly d noune. <i. Judge .Mason. ex-Collector of Baltimore, attempted to offer a series of Secession resolutions, hut thev were received with groans and hi--es. The Mvanae-eatter Taney. Lieutenant Crosby, with -I\ty regulars.and the steamer Thomas Sparks, with thirty-tour men and a company of the 13th New York Regiment, with six pieces of urtdh TV, 111 der I.ienten ant Morton, went down the bay y--t.-rdav on special service—doubtie-s to retake the light-boat near the mouth of the Potomac, which ,s said to have fallen into the hands of the Secessionists. They will also cruise for privateers. The garrison here now i- composed 01" the New York l..th. the artillery troop of the sth New York Regiment, a part of the 6th New York Regiment, and the -!th Pennsylvania Regiment. L>e Geauval and Conner, who were arrested as spies, are still in the guard-house. The former will, m time, doubtless be released; but the ease of Conner, the son of a respectable family in Annapolis, is peculiarly aggravated. He opened t.ie despatches entrusted to him at Washington, aud yesterday made confession to his priest, ajid requested to see the commandant, Colonel Smith before he slept. Hi- c-ase 1-under con sideration at the War department 111 Washington. seems to be much difficulty in ascertaining the pay of privates in the U. S. service. We published last week a statement that they received S2O per month, and an other statement since makes it sll. The latter is probably correct, or near the mark. LOCAL AFFAIRS. A SURPRISE PRESENT. —Captain Selhei mer's lady was not a little surprised as well as gratified on Monday evening last, on re turning home from a visit, to find an ele gant sewing machine in her house, bearing the follow in inscription * g, ■ e ..... e i.oods, a for the season, embracing all kinds of 0 LADIES DRESS GOODS 3 such as French M<-rinoe-\ Cashmeres, I • Laities, ail wool I'iaids, Morello Cloths'an e m fact every kind of Ladies Goods for th * season. Also, a great variety of Ladie - Cloths, Capes, Mantillas, \- t Shawls—a liitt tins tribute to the captain of the Lo gan Guards, an I through him to the com pany, shows that the promptness with which our citizen soldiers met the call of the government when threatened by the foul conspirators who had planned its over throw, is July appreciated by patriotic cit izens everywhere, who are not only ready to support their government with the means, but at the same time willing to show their estimation of that spiiit which is bent on upholding the flag and institutions of our glorious forefathers. The present was sent through the Kxecutive Committee of the Logan Guard Fund. POSTMASTER. —SamueI ('omfort, Ksq.. was notified on Saturday last of his ap pointment as Postmaster at Lewistown, and his bonds having been sent on. the com , mission will probably arrive in a few days As the editor of the Gazette was at one time an applicant for this post, it may not be out of place to state (bat the position was tendered to him. For private reasons, connected mainly with his business, he de clined; and without having any special la voriteism among the other applicants, he will here add that the recommendation of Mr. Comfort was made with his approval. Press states the Advance or Cameron regiment has elected the follow ing officers: Henry L. Cake, of Schuyl kill county, colonel; Captain Selhcimer, of* the Lewistown Logan Guards, lieutenant colonel; and Hon. Jas. 11. Campbell, Hep resentative in Congress from the Schuyl kill district, major. Private Pearson, of the Heading llingold Artillery, will proba bly be chosen adjutant of the regiment. THE WEATHER. —The past week has been prolific of more than the u-ual varie ty. At the close of the week tbe moun tains were white with snow, the ground fro zen in places, and ice formed that would have done no di-eredit to the Ist of' No vember. Since then showers of rain, ac companied with high and cold winds, have' predominated—making it altogether any thing but pleasant. Some of the fruit has been undoubtedly injmcd ; and complain ing and other farming work much retarded. We shall hereafter decline giving partial lists of officers of companies formed lure. If they desire publication of -ueh matters, all ought to be furnished. i :ii-f ..} ihe O.iz.nte. CAME SI.IFER, May d, 1801. ]>rnr Sir. —A- the Hums Infantry is j.iir, cipaily composed ot citizens of Mifflin coun ty, no doubt many of your readers will be in terested in perusing a short paragraph from one of its members. First, we deem it our duty to correct wrong information which has gone home by some one I think not belonging to the Infantry, that the soldiers are half fed and half-provided for otherwise. It is true in concentrating so many men, in so short a space of time, into one place, neither the government nor officers could be expected to have everything as thev wi-ffi, or everything the army regulations re quire. We have had plenty of provisions served out to us from the commissary, ever I since we were mustered into the service, al though at first it was not regular because it could not be procured fast enough for the number of men coining into camp. The regulations have now become systemized, and a!! fare well. We have plenty of bread, pork, beef, rice, beans, coffee, sugar, Ac. Meu who have been through the Mexican earn paign say we are much better provided for than the soldiers in Mexico. Whoever circu lated the above iaformatian, spoke ignorant ly of the army regulations, or did it designed ly, and is no better than a secessionist in dis guise. 1 have repeatedly after meal time asked the members of our company whether they had enough to eat, and the a'nswer invariably was : " Enough, but nut much of a variety,"' but which can not be expected in war. We received this afternoon part of our uniforms, with which our men are much pleased. Hoping the above will be satisfac tory to those of our friends whom we have left behind, I am yours, Ste., J. L). S. MEETING AT . BELLEVILLE. —On Saturday evening, April 27, a meeting of the citizens of West Kishacoqtiiilas was held at the ar m ry of the Belleville Fencibles, Mai. J. W. Wilson in the chair, and Joseph Hoar Secre tary. The object having been stated, a com mittee of eleven was appointed to solicit sub scriptions to aid the families of any who may volunteer with the Belleville Fencibles, pro vid< d they be called into service. Committee—D. McK. Centner, John Peach ey, Jr., Wm. W. Gilmore, Daniel King, Shem Zook, Jos. H. Maclay, Jos. Campbell, John Yoder. Col. William Cummings, A. G. Gib bonv, 11. P. Taylor. A subscription paper was also left with tho Treasurer, Joseph Hoar. Samuel Greer we learn has been ap pointed Postmaster at Heedsville, A Nkw Movk.—Ben Firoved, agent, lias determined to postpone auction indefi nitely. and for a month or so will continue to close out his entire stock of goods at cost or even less for cash or in exchange for any kind of country produce.
