Quota of the Fourth Ward, Allegheny.
We are glad to 1011 t at the people of this
ate Stein tatlYi g with spirit in the
work of filling up thet quota with volunteers.
At a meetingehtid lea evening, of the block
committees and other citizens, (the proceed
lap of which we give this morning,) it was
erderea that the several committees gall again
upon enrolled men and others for their contri
butions to a bounty fund for the ward. We
trust they will be met in a generous spirit;
for let it be borne in mind that it will require
far less money to meet the call of the govern
ment in this way than to let the draft come
upon the ward and then pay commutations.
It Will, moreover, be far more honorable and
petrietio. Boar it in mind that we need mar
to put this war through and not vievvy. And
then, heal in mind another thing: if the
(motels fitted with men, the ward will not be
subjeet to another draft, as it would be, were
It to furnish money instead of men. In every
point of rig's, therefore, whether of honor,
patriotism, ,pecuniary advantage, or future
immunity, this is the true policy. And again,
the sooner the-work can be done, the cheaper
it can be done.
Gen. Can and the Strike
Clem George W. Cass, President of the Pitts
burgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railway, to
• teltigrapie dispatch to the General It gont at
cliktago, under date of January 26th, says :
,
All the passenger trains on the Eastern Di-
Vision arc now running on the regular Belled-
IN time. Pour sections freight went west
this meaning, and we 'kali soon have all the
enginai et this division fit for service at work
on the trick. On the Western Division fifteen
. .
anginas great work to-day, and thw Superin
tendent reports by telegraph that all Is right
this a. m., maths re-organisation will loon
he seeded.
The enoouregement and sympathy given to
the conspiracy at Chicago by the vast num
bers of locomotive runners concentrated there
delays that Division more than the Eastern
In getting to work. Then, too, the "Brother
- Ueda( the Foot Board" have their organisa
tions on many of the roads at Chicago, and
they ere sworn to sustain and protect their
order everywhere.
It is a great mistake to suppose ye are
engaged merely in a contest about wages. It
is a contest between the Corporate Managers
of renegade, who are, under the restriction,
of their shorter and general laws, and secret
=edition' if locomotive runners who have
lodes on many road, in the West under the
— deirgastion of the "Brotherhood of the Foot
Board," which sesames to make roles and re
gulations
for the government of the running
of the roads, and is only responsible to I
own members in secret conclave.
The question which I had to decide, then
was not how ranch wages should be paid, bu
whether tbe "Brotherhood of the Foot Board
or the others of this corporstign shout
manage Its property. I decided, without an
hesitation, to use all the money and all
power of the corporation to set aside all ill "t
•Rol and dangerous eonspiractes, and I belie •
I shall succeed.
Engineers are now coming from the Errs
and the military authorities helve given 6336
ants of protection against qti violence.
Idej. Gen. Brooks sent military gu
well provided with ball and bowder, fro
here to Fort Wayne.
This
has been the most formidable, 63 it has
the most esneelese, 'strike that ever has been
on any railroad In this country.
idysieriona Disappearance
On Wednesday, Mr. W. S. Graham, an en
gineer, who resides In Manchester, was em
ployed by the captain of the Tigress No. , 2, to
assist in putting the machinery in repair. It
was well known that on that mernina ho had
received a check for the sum of $1,500. To
wards evening ho was reqnested by the cap
tain to stay bri board all night, as he andel
listed • break up of the its. Ile replied that
he would do so, but informed the captain that
it would be necessary for him to visit his
family first, and Inform them of his inten
utiniii.' 'This Ira was permitted to do, and about
. half-past eight in the- ernming to returned.
Binee this time be has not been heard from.
It has been ascertained at the bank, that he
did not draw the money, and orders have been
given not to pay it to any person except him
self, until further order.. • Mr. 0. was a sober,
Industrious, hard working citizen, and his fate
is involved in mystery. lie leaves a wife and
three children anxious in regard to his fate.
gmlUng the Coppertteads.
The Harrisburg' Telegraph, in noticing the
&nivel of the bith Regiment, at that place,
says: Al Col. Dick White marched at tho
bead of his veterans, the 55th Regiment P.
V., through the streets of the capital of his
native Stabs, the occasion was made one of
congratulation, end among those who seemed
most ardent in their welcome ' we noticed men
who bore been encouraging the minority in
the Senate, to persist In their mean effort/ to
take advantage of the absence of Major Harry
White, a brother of CoL Dick. What must
the gallant Colonel think of the demagogues
who seek to tarn the Imprisonment of his no
ble brother to political account? He cannot
fail, certainly, to treat such men with disdain
and bold them accountable for the beastliness
vitt( which his brother is now treated. Had
it not been for the Copperheads who infest
Harrisburg and who have feats in the Legis
lature, 111117 White would have been in Dar
damn to-day to greet the return of his noble
brother, Col. Dick White. •
Bt. Peter's Church Ottßeatty
We hare been furnished With a peaspiste
entitled, "Address to tho Parishioners of St.
Peter's Church, Pittsbargh," which purports
`to be • reply to certain resolutions adopted
by • majority of the vestry some time since,
and published in two or three of the city pa-
We will express no opinion on the sub
it present, ,at present, as It seems to be rather a
personal and congregational quarrel, growing
out of some suspicious of disloyalty in relation
to one of the functionaries connectod•with the
church. Those who desire to know more
about it can procure a pamphlet at Mr. Davis'
book store on Wood street.
- We understand that • reply will be issued
in pamphlet farm in it short time. Those who
have it in hand are very competent, and will
no doubt defend themselves succossfally.

she had regretted taking the poison, as she
was very willing to, receive !the attention , of
the physician. Proper remedies were applied,
and the patient was yesterday regarded as out

The President said that the Committee bad
called upon the County Commissioners, aid
desired them to so-operate with them, „got
they had stated that they had no authority
to issue bonds without the consent or the
tax payers of the county, but that if legisla
tive action could be had, giving them authori
ity, they would do's° cheerfully. This was
considered equivalent to a declination on their
part, and nothing could bo expooted from
them.
Mr. Jennings moved to amend the last arti
cle in the report, by inserting one hundred
instead of two hundred dollars. Mr. Jennings
explained his reuons for effering the amend
ment; but on putting the question, It was lost.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29, 1884,
llomis.—A general converser:ion took plade
between the members, with a 'IOW of Coming
to an agreement concerning the consideration
of the Surollment Bill.
Mr. Manna, of Ohio, said it was necessary
that the Bill should be parsed very soon, so
we must be prepared to resist any desperate
and wild attempt that the rebels may make
against as.
The House voted to reconsider the vote by
which the Enrollment Bill was referred to the
Committee of the Whole on the State of the
Union. Yeas, 100; nays, 44. The bill being
now before the House, Mr. Schenck moved to
postpone the further consideration of it until
Monday, which was agreed to.
Mr. Flock, of Ohio, addressed the House on
• resolution amendatory of the Confiscation
Law. He held that the ordinances of seem,-
lion are void and illegal, and he expressed
the hope that the revolted States would be
brought back to all their rights under the Con
stitution. He would say solemnly and dis
tinctly of the doctrines of the President and
of the gentleman from Pennsylvania, Mr. Ste
vens that if the views the latter had announc
ed, that the war woo to be prosecuted for sob
*Lion and conquest, should be carried out,
the restoration of the Union under the Con
stitution would be impossible. He contended
that by the modern mege of nations, we had
no right to seine and confiscate the private
property of those in arms against as, or have
we the right to establish civil government id
any of the rebellious States. lie wan In favor
of every just and constitutional measure for
petting den the rebellion, hot at the same
time he was In favorer presenting fundamen
tal rights ender the constitution. He wants,
• lasting peace founded on equity and justice s
and which would bring gladness to millions
of hearts.
Mr. Garfield, of Ohio, could not agree with
•Mr. Stevens that the rebellious States are out
of the Union, nor with the gentleman of the
other side, who claim that they have all the
rights pertaining to citistme of the Union.
The Supreme Court had laid down as a rule,
clearly end well defined, that when a great
rebellion is in operation, the President and
Congress may declare, we are in a state of
war, and that we should follow the laws of
war. All the obligrsions of the Union hang
ever them, bet by the act of rebellion, they
have placed themselves beyond the privileges
of the constitution. The only question was,
meld the government In the exercise of the
law of war, punish the rebels by the forfeiture
sr" their pereonel and real estate.
At the origin of this nation all the Slates,
excepting New Hampshire, passed the most
sweeping laws confiscating the estates of the
tortes, and not permitting them to remain up
on our soil. The British commissioner en
deavored to influence our own, who signed •
treaty of peace to make restitution, but this
the latter refased to do, and the 15th article
of the treaty merely says they would recom
mend Congress to be merciful. If we wont
lasting peace we must put down the guilty
cause, which is slavery, and take away the
platform on which slavery stands, namely the
landed estates of the rebels of the South. The
negro has been our true friend on every occa
sion. There was scarcely a surprise or a bat
tle where the negro had not come to us and
told us the truth. lie had found that while
the:rebels were fighting, blackmen were cul
tivating their, lands, the produce of which
were pleeed In the rebel uonstolssary depart
ment, and It was not until we bad taken away
the main support of the rebels that we mold
conquer them. If this was an 'abolition war
it was because we have an abolition army,
and he would tell the gentleman that slavery
is dead forever, unless the body snatchers on
the ether side should resurrect or bring It to
life. Ile said, I announce gentlemen that
your friend is departed. Hang your emblems
. of mourning on the bier and follow the hearse
and shed tears over the grave: but I have no
time to waste in listening to eulogies on the
deceased. It was net by commissioners. such
as the gentleman from New York, Mr. Wood,
had suggested; it was not by smilel that
peace was to Its secured, but by the thunders
of war.
The rebellion must be met. Our armi ,
net be filled, and we must go forward with
the useiesty of a great people, rising in tit&
strength to break down the last hopo of the
South. Mr. tlarGeld sp..ke also of the groat
anxiety mauifested in the rebels pending the
',hi. State election last etitnain. When the
telegragh flashed to the ermy the news of the
Union victory and the defeat of ValLandig
ham, he .iSertleld teat a general order
thrtegh the camps, when from every littleone
there buret forth shouts which fairly rent the
•ir and cent terror and despair to these men
--the rebels •he watched over the border.
In cooelusion he repeated that slavery must
its swept away, in order to a permanent pence.
They should feliew the example of Cromwell
and let out the had blood of the mmetry, and
imitate the severity of the Puritans.
Mr. Edgerton, of Ind., expressed himself
opposed to oonnecation on the grounds of
Christianity and public policy, and took lemma
with the policy of the Adminietration.

shall be requested to employ some esompetent

of witnesses, and to furnish any other evi

quired into.

or such ostax imposed as to prevent undue
competition with oar own °Weans. Referred
to the Committee on Foreign Affairs.
The Senate then proceeded to consider the
resolution for the expulsion of Mr. Davis.
Mr. Clark thought the resolutions of Mr. Da
vis as very intemperate in language and
erroneous in statement, and if not so intended,
they were calculated to lead to consequences
which he was sure would be injurieue. If the
Senator from Mass., (Wilson,l thdught them
calculated to route treason. he t was jus•
tined in offering hie resolution of ,et pulpiest.
The Senator having, however, disclaimed any
Insurrectionary object in their introduction,
he thought the Donator was bound to accept
the disclaimer, and allow the Senator's own
interprepation of his language. If the Sena
tor only meant by the word revolt to opposi
tion at the polls, in a legal way ageism( the
President and war loaders, he thought the
resolution of expulsion should be withdrew.,
and hoped it would be.
Mr. Foster, of Conn., briefly gave his rea
sons for voting both against tho expulsion or
censure of Mr. Davis. The resolutions he
said were Improper to be introduced into, this
body, es they charged high crimes en the
ezemutive, crimes for which he was liable to
be Impeached, and to easel:no before such im
peachment that he was guilty of the nets
charged In the resolutions of the Senate'
from Kentucky, would be transcending the
limits whisk we as judges should assume.
These resolutions also impeach the majority
of this body, and we would be unfit to sit on a
court of Impeachment, were we to pale them.
He recognised the right of the Saanterto eon.
'true the meaning of the language used, and
he thought the Senate bound logics them the
moaning of the Senator's wishes. He thought

given them by the Senator from Massachu
