That democratic tory secession pper,
the Selinsgrove Times, undertakes to com
ment OR our article against a high duty on
eoffec, in the following secession style,, well
besprinkled with capital letters:
Why la me! Mr. Gazette, didn't you use to
fee a high tariff man? If a democrat had
■written the above, it would doubtbss have
been denounced as treason against the Gov
ernment by the Gazette itself and all the rest
of the wooly tribe. Please utop your clam ,r
against the Government or we shall hare to
send you to Fort Lafayette. You must sue
tain the acts of the Government, Mr Gazette,
like a good, loyal and patriotic citizen? Ar.d
if the Democrats of Mifflin county refuse to
buy Lincum coffee, you patriotic and loyai
Republican citizens of Mifflin should pur
tha-e a double portion now and give the half
to the poor. Com; now, be patriotic ar.d loy
al! Be loyal! "Only be loyal and you
shall be saved.'" Republicans we know won't
do such 3 thing ; but if democrats will per
feist in saying that wheat or rye coffee is just
as good <_r better than Lincum coffee, we say
let them bo stopped. Such talk is treason;
it ain't loyal anyhow
It would we think he difficult for any
one ehe outside of a lunatic asylum to put
together a more complete jargon of non
sense than the above. Our amiable seces
siou friend it seems cannot comprehend
that the doctrine of protection advocates
high duties on articles our mechanics and
laboring men can manufacture, or our ag
riculturists grow, and low duties, or none
at all, on such articles of luxury or neces
sity* as we cannot make or raise. Nor is
there anything disloyal in differing in opin
ion with the powers that be on such aques
tion, because it has nothing to do with the
rebellion. Congress thinks a high duty on
cuffee will produce most revenue; we are
among those who believe that a lower du
ty would have produced more, and gave
our reasons therefor. And having said
this much, we will add what i j oar opin
ion of disloyalty. 01 to call it by a more pro
per name, Toryism. When we hear a man,
either through writing or speaking, call
this an abolition war, we are very apt to
think that man thinks more of party than
he does cf his country. When, in the
same way, we see a newspaper editor so
lost to -11 patriotism as to say the southern
cutthroat leaders were justifiable in com
mencing a war to put down and destroy the
best government on earth, we opine that
such editor would rather hold an office un
der Jef Davis in hell, than be a private
citizen under President Lincoln in heaven.
When, again, we see an editor constantly
declaiming against every public measure
adopted to preserve our institutions—ere
ating distrust in the public mind, so far as
his influence may go, by deprecating tax
ation, crying out hard times for the poor,
and endeavoring to prejudice his readers
into a belief that this was caused by Mr.
Lincoln's administration, and not Lv the
Southern conspirators, we cannot help
thinking, there goes a Tory at heart , who
is only waiting for an opportunity to be a
TRAITOR.
Mr. Opcyke, Mayor of Xew York, and a
reeagnized authority in financial matters, has
written a letter to the Secretary of the Treas
ury on the financial affairs of Ibe country.—
Mr. Opdyke is in favor of an immediate issue
of one hundred and fifty millions of fundable
Treasury notes, without interest, and to be
mide a legal tender. Ho advocates such a
measure as the most available at this moment
for the Government, which is in immediate
want, and under an imperative necessity ol
sustaining its own credit; and he believes it
to be also iu accordance with sound political
economy and financial law. Mr. Opdyke has
devoted a great deal of thought and study to
the science of political economy for many
years past, and all that be has to say upon
the present condition of our monetary affairs,
and any proposed relief, is deserving of con
sideration.
The Secretary of State, on Friday, directed
the release from Fort Lafayette of all the per
sons taken trom on board of rebel armed ves
sels, which order has been undoubtedly exe-
TSS.iti>li Stiid f fttri*-t-S-Ui
The Philadelphia Preso, in an OL
taxation, has some pertinent remarks on
the subject which we commend to our read
er? The question truly is, govemmet
nr no government, for with thts countr_.
dismembered, and cut up into a number
of discordant .States, there would be little
security fcr either life or property. That
paper says :
The first to raise outcry against it are
Hioatlv of a class which can be made to suf
fer least by the levy, either because they
have nothing taxable, or because or the
availability of their resources.
ignoring the justice and the necessity Oi
the tax. thev seize upon the thing per
and, after distorting it into hideousness,
fling the caricature in the faces ot the peo
ple with a great flourish of indignation.
These men care nothing for the people,
whether thev fee wronged or exalted. They
care nothing for cause? or principles. In
all that affects the welfare of humankind
they are essentially vile. Ihev have cun
nioz. but of tbe lower order : their iives
are falsehoods. *1 hev are faise beacons,
set to lure the too confiding upon treacher
ous rocks, and their feast day is the season
of national trouble
But taxation is sometimes just and nec
essary; indeed, in degree, it is always nec
essary. What in times of peace would
justlv arouse popular indignation, in times
of trouble may become not only just, but
beneficent. Such a time has now arrived.
The existence of the Government depends
up>on measures which call for a great ex
penditure of treasure. We are engaged in
a war whose least stake—and we say it
without fear of successful contradiction —is
the wealth, public and private, of the coun
try. Ay. though the purchase of an hon
orable and enduring peace impoverish every
man and woman in the P*.epubiic, it would
be cheap The means to purchase such a
peace must be had, and the burden must
be laid unon every shoulder, according to
its ability to bear it. From the possessors
of dimes to the holders of millions, each and
all must be permitted to take bis share ol
the burden end the responsibility.
There is but one way to adjust tbe bur
den so that it sh-li bear equally upon all
The productive wealth of the country must
be taxed. But first, let every sinecure,
whether Ictate or National, whether civil or
military, be instantly abolished. By cut
ting off as much expenditure we car, abate
so much tax. Let every salary paid by
Government for services rendered be taxed.
and go heavily as may be necessary. Or.
if it be more feasible to reduce the salaried
of public servants, let that be done. If it
be necessary to cut down every salary to
the living minimum, do that; then com
mence with the President and heads of de
partments, and let the work of retrench
ment descend to the humblest employee of
the Government, excepting no man, of any
' grade whatsoever. This will show the
people that when men speak of retrench
ment they mean eomthing more than words,
words words. The thin gilt of cheap pa
triotism —such has been current and plen
tiful for the last decade, will not pass with
a people made lynx-eyed by taxation. We
want our public men to frame a tax-bill, a
just, and a thoroughly competent one; but
when (hey take it in their hands and go
among the people, they must be able to
show that tJiej/ have not avoided sacrifice
while demanding sacrifice of wtbers. It is
a poor quality of patriotism which cannot
1 cheerfully bow to any necessity ; that can
not go Lack to the bare floors and homely
fare of the pioneers of freedom in necessi
tous times : which cannot banish every lux
ury, and lop off the superfluous branches of
pride, and so increase the number of good
citizeus, while helping the nation through
itß first days of actual gloom.
And, if there be a single industrial in
terest in the country which sends up a re
monstrance against taxation in this emer
gency, let fb remonstrants be known aa
fair-weather patriots; blind men, who can
not see that unless the Government be su3-
t lined, their investments are but dust—ut
terly valueless It is the simplest question
whether men shall save half, or any other
i proportion, or lose all. " Weigh it, sound
it, discuss it, do with it as you will—that
is the alternative. Accept it and live—
livo so that you will not regret the day of
1 your birth —or stop to cavil and remon
strate. aud perish, cursing the blindness of
• i ruthless self." Such is, in substance, the
preachment of these necessitous hours —
hours, which, though heavy with gloom,
will separate the pure gold of manhood
I from the dross of pretence, and brand the
false as false.
©afSome of his friends recently boasted
that Geo. A. Crawford, Esq , late of Lock
Haven, had been elected Governor of Kansas.
It is true that some hundreds of votes were
caet for him, in several districts in that State
—but the Supreme Court has decided that
Gov. Robinson is " Gubernator" until next
fell—to that that trick wouldn't take.

Dreadful A fair —Two Pennsylmniaiis Killed.
A court of inquiry, over which Gol. Me-
Cartcr, of the 93d Pennsylvania, presided,
ci sed its sitting on Saturday. Oneof theca=e?
which came before the c >urt was that of Bar-
Dey Grogan, a private in Col Rowley's 13th
Pennsylvania Regiment, who was tried for
tbe murder of two of his companions.
' I An officer, who was present when the mur
der occurred, gives tha following account of
i it: Grogan was somewhat intoxicated when
. he gi.-t into an altercation with another pri
vate, named Young. They Loth got excited,
when Grogan rai=ed his gun and deliberately
! shot Young through the head—the ball cn
'' taring his right eye, and carrying away the
? entire side of his head. A private named
5 Ly-ander Robb, who was guard ninety yards
- ; distant, received the ball which killed Young
in the breast, one inch above the right nipple.
. The ball passed through, and lodged in the
, skin of kis back Ha iived but a few min
utes after he received the shot. Robb was
only nineteen years of age. lie is very re
spectably conuected in Pittsburgh, lit was
a great favorite in the regiment. Col. P*JW

of his untimely Ueath. Both bodies were

vision WiiS expected to I'jaVfc littXl u;it. A
tuber of recruiting <-ifi ;ers, acting under
authority of Gen. Price, had been busy en
listing men for the Rebel rank-, but had
becD captured by the Union forces. By the
way of Holla wa hare information that no en
trenchments are being made by the enemy at
ipriugheld, aud that Price and his officers
are not in the least moved by the nearness of
the Federal army, as there are said to be heavy
reinforcements on the march to assist Price.
The same authority states that there are large
1 bodies of Federal troops at Lebanon, and that
a skirmish had occurred near that place, in
which a Rebel Captain wa killed and several
man taken prisoners. Government teams are
moving westward whenever the state of the
roads, which are ankle deep in mud, will per
mit them.
By the way of Leavenworth, Kansas, we
have information that Gen. Lane's expedition
is to be commanded by Gen. Hunter in per
son, unless otherwise ordered by the Govern
ment. Gen. Hunter has issued a special or
der to this effect, and also that as no trans
portation is to be had the army must move
without it. He further says that the General
commanding will take his valise cniy, and but
one change of clothes; no officer or soldier,
therefore, will take more. All trunks, tents,
chests, camp stools, and surplus clothes are
to be stored or abandoned, Every officer or
soldier is to carry his own bed and bedding,
ammunition, and provisions.
A severe fight took place a few days ago
at Geary city, Kansas, between the Jay
hawkers and a party of citizens, who fol
lowed them from ilushville, Missouri.—
Three of the thieves were killed, including
the notorious Capt. Chandler, who was shot
by Major Hart, of Buchanan county. —
The band was overpowered and taken in
charge by Captain Fuller, of General Hun- i
ter's Body Guard, to be disposed of in
Leavenworth. One was left in jail in St.
Joseph, but he cut his own throat the same
day to avoid the penalty of his crimes.

Rebel correspondence found in Zolh
coffer's camp after the rout of his forces,
demonstrate that the Union sentiment of j
East Tennessee is all but overwhelming,
and that it is suppressed only by drum
head court* martial, summary executions, ;
and other atrocities. The orders of the
rebel war department directing the sum
mary execution of the malcontents and the
barbarous exposure of their bodies after
death, are commended to the attention of
secessionists in Maryland, who think it
great hardship if the Government does not :
allow them to burn bridges, or execute
other disloyal acts without interference.
UfA correspondent of the New York :
Tribune, writing from Kentucky, speaks of
the late battle there as follows :
There is, indeed, retribution in hi*tnry
The Ball's Bluff slaughter has been fully
avenged, as now ascertained. A counter 1
part to its saddest feature —the drowning
of oar retiring troops in the Potomac—has
been enacted by the retreating Rebels.—
When thev reached the bank of the river,
after their precipitate flight from the battle
field, they rushed in crowds upon the flat
boat that, with a steamboat, formed their
means of crossing. So great was the rush
upon the former that many were pushed
overboard. Others hung themselves in
such numbers in the water, holding on to
the rides of the boat, that they threatened
to upset the boat, and compelled those
upon it to loosen their hold by force A
large number rushed headlong into the riv
er after the boats had stood utF the bank.
atid tried to swim across. Over 150 are
thus supposed to have found a watery
grave. The Rebel cavalry dismounted on
the bank and tried to swim their horses
over while crossing on the boats. The an
imals, however, all swam back to this side.
Four additional pieces of artillery have
been discovered, unking the total number
captured twenty-one. Nearly two hundred
r moriers, who had scattered through the
wood*, were taken. Some scouting parties
sent out from the entrenchments found the
bush on the left hank tuli of horses, and
brought in over two hundred of them <>u
