E. O. GOODRICH, EDITOR. TOWANDA: Thursday Moruiug. January 29, law. OUR TERMS. The great increase in the price of paper, which we have before noticed, has caused news paper publishers throughout the country to raise their subscription to meet the emergency. Paper has within the last few weeks gone up from 10 to 22 cents per pound. Should it re main permanent at this latter price, wo can not furnish the REPORTER at one dollar a year, without a loss upon every copy issued. A\ e arc loth to increase the subscription, but from j present indications, and from the information wc have from our jrapcr munutacturers, wc shall probably bo obliged to. The response made by our subscribers to our late appeal, Las been very satisfactory, though not as geueral as it should bo. Y> e shall receive subscriptions at our present rate until the 14th day of February next, after which time (unless there is some change iu the prices of materials to warrant) the terms of subscription will be ONE DOI.UAR AND FIFTY CENTS per year. Wc shall also at thai lime discontinue every paper not paid for in ad vance, without " fear, favor or affection,'' as the change in price will make such a course an absolute necessity. We do not know of a newspaper the size of the REPORTER in the country furnished at or.c dollar per year. As a business, it would take but a short time to " close out the concern, 5 ' at the present high prices of everything used iu a printing office. We trust those who have been receiving the REPORTER without paying anything, will see the justice and propriety of not putting off the " good time " any longer, but will promptly square old accounts, and avail themselves of the limited time which now remains to pay iu advance at cnc dollar a year. After the close of February Court, wc shall not scud the RE PORTER to non-paying subscribers. We should be happy to, but wc can't stand the expense. SUMMARY Or NEWS. The most important war news on Mond iy was the resignation of Gen. Buruside and the appointment of Gui. Hooker to the command of the Army of the Potomac. The Arkansas I liver Expedition is doing good work: Rear-Admiral Porter telegraphs on the 20Lb, that he has " taken St. Charles, DuvalFs Bluff and Dos Arc, and the light gunboats arc over 300 miles above the mouth of White River. The BcKalb, Lieut -Com mander Walke, captured at Duvall's Rhifl'two S-ineli guns with carriages, ammunition and 200 Enfiekl rifles, and three platform cars,and at Des Arc we captured 30 prisoners, and a quantity of arms and ammunition." St. Charles is a small post village of Arkansas County, Aik. Duvall's Bluff is a small post village of Prairie County, Ark. Des Arc was a thriving post village also, in Prairie Countv, on White River, 50 miles N. E. of Little Rock. It is situated iu a rich cotton and corn-growing district, and Lad an active trade prior to the lebellion. The river is navicable from this point to its mouth at all stages of water. Brig.-Geu. lien Loan publishes in The Mis souri Jkmocrat a letter from Col. Pouiek, commanding at Independence, which states that Private Johnson was brought iu dead on the 11 tli of January, aud that he is the fifth one murdered there in a week by Rebel guerrillas. They were all wounded, and killed afterward. All of them were shot iu the head, and several of them had their faces cut to pieces with boot heels. Powder was ex ploded in oue man's ear, and both cars were out oT close to the bead. Guerrillas arc threatening Union woman in ibe county.— They have also levied an assessment upon the loyal rneu of the country aud arc collecting it. Advices from New Orleans state that on Thursday afternoon, Jan. Bth, there was a rumor at New-Orleans that the Winona, one of our gflaboats, had been sunk by the South battery at Port Hudson. It is also reported that Stonewall Jackson with -10,000 men, had re-enforced Yicksburg. There was noth ing from Galveston up to uooa of January Bth. The Philadelphia J'/css soys, that General Grant has placed Lis Army of the Tennessee upon trausports at Memphis, and is now, in all probability, engaging the enemy about Yicksburg, The third siege of this strong hold is now in progress, and there is but little doubt that it will fall. A Nashville dispatch cays that the fleet (of supply transports, we presume,) which left there on Friday was attacked by the rebels a few miles below. The gunboat drove the ene my off, and the fleet passed on safely to Clarks ville. The United States steam transport Illinois sailed on Saturday afternoou with the remain ing forces of the Hank's expedition. The Il linois will touch at Fortress Monroe on her way to New Orleans. Foar boat loads of prisoners, enptur ed at Arkansas Post, were expected at Mem phis on Jauuary Hi. SUPrORT THE GOVERNMENT. The opposition to liie national udmiuislta tion which has sprung up and gathered strength withiu a few month.-:, cannot but excite deep est solicitude iu ihe mind ot every patriotic citizen. Its aims are still undefined; and it is • not yet homogeneous. It is made up of Soutn ern sympathizers—those who behove that shi j very lias rights which are little less than di vine : of those who cannot forget old party prejudices and are antagonistic to the admin ist ration because it is licpublieii-n ; and of: ii.u.-e who are iu favor of cru-hiug the rebel lion by the must energetic means, but are dis satisfied with the manner in winch the war has bccu conducted. And not a few whose sympathies are naturally with the nduiiuistiu tion have been turned from it by the loose j management which seems to pervade evciy department connected with the supply ot the i army, and which is really unavoidable iu the absence of arbitrary power to deal with svvin dling contractors. Thus, when unity and har mony are absolutely necessary to the success of our arms,.and while the rebels are a unit in support of their rulers, the national adminis tration is bitterly opposed for the most diverse reasons, and the holy cause is suffering from division of sentiment and from a factious op positicu which even threatens to become in surrection. The tendency of opposition is too obvious to be misunderstood. Although it embraces many who are as loyal as the strongest sup porters of the Administration, yet it is led by these who are in full sympathy with Jeff. Da vis and his sentiments. Such men as \\ ood, Vallandigham, Wall, Cox, W. R Reed, Ran dall and Seymour are the prime movers of the i opposition and shape its policy. Can any i thinking man douut w.iere ilicy will lead . | Can any one fail to see that they are bent up ' on securing an ignominious submission to the | rebel oligarchy 1 ! It is cot alone iu weakening the confidence i of the people in the success of the Govern : aicut, and* in maligning the administration, ! that we see the slimy tracks oi tuo opposition j leaders. They are sowing the seeds of JUat- I feet ion among our soldiers, and doing what I they can to bring about that demoralization iof the at my of which they croak. With no ; desire for the success of cur arms and no in terest in the triumph cf the Government, they would exult over a mutiny in the army as they would triumph iu an insurrection at the North. There has not been a time iu ti*e picgicss ; of this rebellion when unity of purpose at the • North was more to be desired than now, or ; when such unity would be more happy iu its j results. Wc have abundant evideuce that , the resources of the rebels have been strained | to the utmost —that their men and means to : carrv on the v.'ar will soon be exhausted. — I With varying success we have still made sub i staulial progress, until the war has reached ' that point where a single important victory ! will iurn the scale iu our favor, liven now the rebellion is sustained upon the hope cf a division at the North. With their power o: endurance strained to the utmost, the rebel leaders are listening anxieu iy for the first gun cf that " fire in the rear," which tin y hoj e will paraliz.' the arms of the fedcsa! govern tneut. There arc but two ways of averting the ea tastrophc—one is by the streug arm of the Government, wisely directed, holding in cheek the leaders of this conspiracy : the other i through the power of the pcopl, rising in tlu.r majesty as they did at the lull of Sumpter, and rallying to the support of the Government. To this cud the efforts of every loyal press, and of every patriotic citizen should now la directed. Let the resolve go forth that the Government shall be sustained and the rebel lion crushed at all hazards, and the work is douc. The Valiandighams, the Coxes, the Woods, and the whole brood, of traitors and conspirators who are striving to fasten slavery upon the couutry will sliuk back into their obscurity before the awakened iudigu'ation of a free people. THE ARMY OF PENNSYLVANIA. — The annual report of Adjutant General RUSSELL places the number of Peunsylvanians iu arms for the defence of the Union, since the breaking out of the present rebellion, at tiro hundred and Jlfti/ thousand. This includes the number ol men in three months' campaign, as well as the many who so nobly left their firesides and the comforts of home for the hardships aud vicis situdes of the tented field in that critical pe riod in our State history, when the enemy was ou our very borders. The number in this home army is estimated at 2d,000. It is un fortunate that the number of men from each conLty could not be ascertained, but the mode originally adopted for mustering in the volun teers was such as to preclude the possibility of arriving at a correct result in that uirec tiou. The continued neglect of the county drafting commissioners to make their final re ports prevents any estimate of the number of drafted men in the field from the different counties of the Commonwealth. The New-York Assembly was fully or ganized on Monday by the choice of the can didates supported by the Union War Party —Theo. C. Callicot (I)era.) Speaker ; Joseph 1?. Cushnian (Union Hem.) Clerk, and the candidates for minor offices nominated by the Union caucus. The opposition was not se rious after the election of Speaker. STATE TREASURER. —On Monday, the 19th, the election for State Treasurer took place at Ilarrisburg. The vote stood por ll'>-RY I) MOORE, (Hop.,) " Wm. N. MeGratti, (Dean,) 05 The latter was declared elected TIIE PENNSYLVANIA RESERVES. Gov. C-imiix sent to the Legislature Ylou "day, the 19th inst., a special message relating to the gallant Pennsylvania Reserves. The Governor slates that as oiigiually organized, 1 the laws of Congress and of our State Legis -1 latere empower him to commission, as officers, ( those who were previously elected by the men . l of this corps. After they had gone into the field, upon vacancies occurring, certificates ol election were forwarded and commissions i.s --' sued thereon eutii some time iu July last, when an order was issued from the Division Head quarters, directing that thereafter elections I should not be Leld. The reason assigned for this was that it demoralized the corps, and prevented, in some iusLuuces, tne deserved pro motion of those who had won, hy- their gallant ry in the field, such distinction. Lists of pro , motions made by the colonels of regiments, with the approval of the contm nding generals, were forwarded to the Governor, who, feeling anxious that those who had been promoted should be commissioned at once, a-ked the ad vice of the Attorney General who, after ex j aminaliou, expressed his opinion, (iu which the Governor concurred) that the officers could not be commissioned under the existing laws without elections having been held. It was I therefore illegal for him to issue the commis sions. The Governor now asks that authori ' ty be given to him by the Legislature to com ; mission such officers who, in view of their ser -1 vices and gallantry are presented to hira for ' promotion, and thus place this gallant corps under like regulations as tlio.se which control i the other volunteer regiments from Pcnnsyl ! vania. The Governor further suggests that the Re serves should be allowed to return to the State, | and placed in the rump at the Capitol, for the | purpose of recruiting their thinned rank?—a suggestion which is endorsed by the Generals iin command of the Reserves. The \\ ar De i partmcnt, however, has refused to grant this request, on the ground that if acceded to, ad I similar applications from oth-.r States would j have to be granted a', o. Tiio President end Gen. BleCieliaii. A letter from President Lincoln to Gen. McCiellan was produced on the Port-:r Court Martial at Washington, which will be read j with interest : ; WASHINGTON, Apr - '! 9,1862. To MAE-GEN. MCCLELLXN— My Dear Sir: —Your dispatches, complaining that you are not properly sustained, wniie they uo not of feud me, pain me wry mu ii. Bunker's 1R ; vision was withdrawn before you left here, ; and you kuowgtho } ■ ess are under v.h ch 1 did 1 it, and, as 1 thought, acq J. weed iu it, certain ly net without reluctance. Alter }ua leit I ! ascertained that lets thau 20,000 uuoiguniz.i.-d men, without a field Lattery, were all you de -igncd should be itft for th • d- h tice ot \*. ash iugtoa and Manassas Junction, and part of this even was to go to Geo. Hui Iter's old po sition. Gen. Bank's corps, once designed for Mautissas Junction, was divid' d and tied up on the Hue of Winchester aud Strasborg, and coold not leave that position wlthout agat u cXp-e.-li.g the Upper Potomac and the Balti more and Ohio Railroad. This presented, or would ] resent, when X! • Dowell and Sumner ~liou.J bo gone, a great temptation for tLe enemy to turn buck from tile Rappahannock a: d sa k V, a.-hiiig;ou. Xiy explicit directions that Washington, sustained by the judgment of ail the commanders ot corps, shcuid be left secure, had been neglect ed. It was precisely this that drove me to detain McDowell. Ldo not forget that i wac satisfied \% itli your arrangement to leave Bank:- at Manassas Junction. But when that ar rangemeut was broken up, and nothing was -übsiitut. d for it, of course I ua.s not saiisSt J I was COus ! I'll ned to substitute soni-thing lor it mvself. And now ailow me to ask you, no VOJ inaiiv think I couni permit the line from Richmond ri.i Manassas Junction to this c.ty to be entirely open, except what resistance couid be presented by less than 20,000 unor j guiiized troops ? Imsis a quest.on winch the country will uot allow toe to evade. There is a curious mystery about the nuin bcr of troops now with you. 1 telegraphed ycu on the oth saying that you had over 100, 000 with you. 1 had just obtained from the Secretary of War a statement taken, as he said, from your own returns, making 108,000 then with you and ui route to you. You now say you will have but 85,000 when all en route to you shall have reached you. llow can this discrepancy of 55,000 be accounted f'.r '( As to Gee. Wool's command, 1 under stand that it is doing precisely what a like number of your own would have to do if that command wan away. I suppose the whole force which has gone forward to you is with you by this time ; and it so, 1 think it is the precise time for you to strike a blow. By delay, the enemy will readily gain ou you ; that is, lie will gain faster by fortifica tions and re-enforcements than you can by re enforcements clone. Aud once more let me tell you it is indispensable to you that you str.ke a blow. lam powei es to help. This you will do mc justice to r.-member. 1 was always opposed to going down the Bay in search of a field, instead of lighting at or near Manassas, as only shifting and not surmount ing the difficulty ; that we would fiuu the same or equal iutreuchmeuts at either place. The country will not fail to note —is noting now— that the present hesitation to move upon an intrenched enemy is but the story ol Xluuassas repeated. I beg leave to assure you that I have never written or spoken to you in greater kindness of feeling than now, nor with a fuller purpose to sustain you so far as in my most anxious judgment 1 consistently can. But you must act. Yours, very trutv, A. LINCOLN. We have a statement, on good authori ty, that Maj.-Oen. Butler is soon to resume command of the Department of the Gulf, fix ing his headquarters at New-Orleans and as much further up the Mississippi as circumstan ces may permit. He will he furnished with ample force to effect the much desired junc tion with Gen. McClernand, and not only to open but to keep open the Mississippi. The national Finanees—Message of the President. WASHINGTON, Jan. IA R I*o3. Tu Ihi Senate awl House of Representatives : 1 have signed the joint resolution to provide for the immediate payment of the Army and Navy of the United States, passed l>y the House of Representatives on the 14th, and by the Senate on the 15th inst. The joint resolution ion simple authority amounting, however, under existing circum stances, to a direction to the Secretary of the Treasury to make an additional issueot SIOO,- 000, Out) in United States notes, if so much money is needed for the payment of the army and navy. My approval is given in order that every possible facility may be uftbrded for the prompt discharge of all arrears of pay due to our sol diers and our sailors. While giving this ap proval, however, 1 think it my duty to express my sincc-re regret that it has been found nec essary to authorize so large an additional is sue of United States notes, when their circu lation and that of the suspended banks to gether have already become so redundant as to increase prices beyond real value, thereby augmenting the cost of living, to the injury of labor, and the cost of supplies, to the injury of the whole country. It seems very plain that continued issues of United States notes, without any check to the issues of suspended banks, and without ade quate provision for the raising of money by loans, and for funding the issues so as to keep them withia due limits, must soon produce disastrous consequences ; and this matter ap pears to me so important that 1 avail myself of this occasion to ask the special attention of Congress to it. That Congress has the power to regulate the currency of the country can hardly admit of a doubt, aud that a judicious measure to prevent the deterioration of this currency by a reasonable taxation of bank circulation or otherwise, if needed, set ms equally clear. In dependently of this general consideration, it would be unju-t to the people at large to ex empt bank- enjoying the special privilege o! citi uluti'j.;, Iroui toen' just proportion ci toe public burd-.-i ... lu order to raise money byway cf loans most easily am, cheaply, it is clearly ncct ; ?ary to give c*very possible support to the public en (lit. To that end, a uniform currency in which la.v s, subscriptions to loans, and all other ordinary public dues may be paid, is al most, if iiol quite, indispensable. Such a cur rency can be furnished by banking associations, authuilz d under a general act of i'ongrcss, 1 as *t -led in Uij message at the beginning 1 of the present .-e.-siotl. The securing of this circulation by the pledge of United States bonds, as hereto sug - j."r.-'.cJ, would still r facilitate loans by i: creasing the present, and causing a future V ■ 11. ILL. I ior suc' i bai.iis. in view of the ac tu.ll financial embarrassments of the Govern ment, and of the greater embarrassment sure to com if the i: Co.. ury means of relief he not afforded, I ii.il that I should not perform my daty by a simp! • announcement of my appro val of the joint rcsoiutiou which proposes re lief only by inereui-ing circulation, without ex pre-siug tnv vainest tie re* that measures,ruch in substance us 1 hive just referred to, may receive the early tauction of Congress. By I such measure?, in my opinion, all payments ! will be most certainly secured, not only to the i army and navy, but to all honest creditors ot the Goveianient, and satisfactory provisions made lor future demands on the treasury.
