There was fighting all day yesterday between
Van llorn's command and a Union force of three
liegimehts of infantry, about 500 cavalry, and
one battery. at Springville, 13 miles south of
Franklin. Cot. Coburn's three Regitnentirof
i.timtry were cut to pieces or captured by the
Rebid forces• They fought desperately, but the
me ieueition became exhausted; and the Union
overpowered by superior numbers, were
eahzr killed or captured. The cavalry and ar
tillery got off safely. No reinforcement from
del_ Gilbert at Franklin reached the scene of
action. There were seven Regiments of Union

Whine, advanced on Spring Hill on the 4th inst.
:-:ereral spirited skirmishes took place during
the day, our troops camping four miles distant.
On the 54h, a movement was apparent, and
during some disorder on our left, they suddenly
opened on our men with three batteries, on dif
trreut points, at the same time. The enemy
also appeared on each flank, in greatly superior
force. The unequal contest was maintained with
great determination, with heavy loss on both
0145, and resulted unfortunately to Our troops—
& large part of the 331 Indiana, 19th Michigan,
Wisconsin, and 85th Indiana, with the most
of their commissioned officers, being captured.
Our artillery and cavalry were successfully
withdrawn. The 124th Ohio was out, but re
turned without loss. All is quiet today. The
Uchida have fallen back. Their force was in
fantry, with heavier artillery than ours.
Gen. Gilbert's non-action in failing to re-en
force CoL Coburn is severely censured by officers
and men.
Fifty-three Rebel prisoners were brought into
Franklin Sunday night, captured at Unionville.
All the camp equipage, &c., were destroyed. Col.
Coburn is a prisoner in the hands of the enemy.

I•ROCLA_IIATION TO SOLDIERS ABSENT WITH
OUT LEAVE.
The President has issued an important procla
mation to soldiers absent from their regiments
without leave. He gives grace to all such, up to
the Ist of April, at which time those who report
themselves to the nearest headquarters, as deals..
noted by a previous order of the Secretary of
War, will be restored to their respective regi
ments without punishment; but those who do
not, will be arrested as deserters and dealt with
as the law directs. He warns evil disposed per
sons not to give aid to the rebellion by encourag
ing desertion, thus weakening the strength of the
armies and exposing those troops in the field to
additional danger. He calls upon all good citi
zens to assist in preventing disaffected parties
from urging the desertion of soldiers and dis
couraging enlistments.

THE NEW BRITISH PIRATICAL FLEET.
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, March 11, 1868
Private lettere from London speak with alarm
of the fleet which is in progress of construction
in England and Scotland for the Rebels. Our
Government is urged to demand in peremptory
language that they be forbidden to sail on their
errand of destruction to American commerce, a
threat of open war being in the opinion of the
writers a sure and the only means of putting an
end to these secret hostilities. In high official
quarters here similar views are entertained.

PENNSYLVANIA LEGISLATURE.
Ilattatseuso, Thursday, March 5.
&NATI: —Mr. Clymer presented a petition
from one hundred and fifty-three citizens of
Bethel township, Berke county, for the passage
Of an act prohibiting negroes and mulattoes from
entering this State. Also, a petition from many
citizens, male and female, of Chester county, for
a National Convention. A communication was
received from the State Treasurer, in reply to a
resolution of inquiry relative to the amount of
Coin received from the Banks, under the Act of
January 30, 1863, for the payment of the inter
, est on the State debt. The Treasurer reports
that $1,008,318 111 was furnished to the State
by the Banks, including all under special Chart
er., except nix, viz Farmers' and Drovers' Bank,
Waynesburg; Southwark Bank, Philadelphia;
Monongahela Bank, Brownsville; Bank of Beav
er County, Bank of Fayette County and Bank of
Pittsburgh. The first named has signified its
acceptance of the act, but has not yet deposited
the coin. The remaining five Banks base their
refusal to comply with the not on the ground, of
being specie-paying Banks. Mr. Reilly, from
the Committee on Corporations, reported as com
mitted, a further supplement to the act incor
porating the Mutual Fire Insurance Company of
Berks county, approved January 81, 1848. The
Committee on Banks reported bills to re• charter
the following Banks for the period of five years
from the expiration of their charters, viz: Bank
of Danville, Bank of Delaware County, Lancas
ter County Bank, Farmers' Bank of Easton,
Commercial Bank of Pennsylvania, and Farm
era' Bank of Books County. Me. Lowry intro
duced a joint resolution approving the proclama
tion of the President releasing the slaves of
rebels, as a military measure. On motion of Mr.
Clymer, the Committee on Education was dis
charged from the consideration of the House bill
authorizing the school directors of the borough
of Kutztown, Berke county, to borrow money,
and the bill was taken up and passed. The sup
plement to the charter of the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company, which had previously passed the
House, was taken up. It changes the time of
holding the annual meetings of the stockholders,
authorizes the Directors to elect an additional
member to act as a Vice President or managing
Director, and authorizes the Company to issue
bonds to any amount required for the construc
tion of branch roads. Mr. Clymer offered a pro
viso requiring the supplement to be submitted to
a vote of the stockholders. Not agreed to—yeas
13, nays 14. The bill then passed finally. Ad
journed.
Rouss.—Mr. Kline presented eight petitions
signed by five hundred and sixty. eight citizens
of Berke county, praying the enactment of a
constitutional call for a National Convention to
consider means of pacification and reunion. Mr.
Potteiger, three petitions of a similar import,
signed by one hundred and seventy seven citi
zens of Berks county. Mr. Weidner, a petition
numerously signed by citizens of District town
ship, Barks county, praying for the passage of a
law prohibiting blacks and mulattoes from enter
ing this State. Mr. Kline, four, and Mr. Pot
teiger, three petitions of a similar import, from
citizens of Berke county. Mr. Hopkins (Wash.
ington), from Committee on Ways and Means.
reported the General Appropriation bill for 1863.
On motion of Mr. Weidner, the Committee on
Corporations was discharged from the further
consideration of Senate bill, supplementary to the
Act revising the charter of the municipal corpo
ration of the city of Reading, and the bill was
passed. (It is the same as published in our
-‘ local" column last week.) Mr. Laporte intro
duced a bill reducing the pay of members of the
Legislature to $3 per diem for one hundred days,
and $1,50 pee diem if the session extends beyond
that time. Mr. Earley, a bill to facilitate anat
omical researches. Mr. Coleman a bill to re
charter the Lebanon Bank. The bill to repeal so
much of the Act of 1810 as relates to filing in
terrogatories in depositions on rules issued by
Justices of the Peace, was passed. The bill to
provide for the transportation of the bodies of
deceased soldiers to Pennsylvania was consid
ered, and referred to a special committee of
three. Adjourned.
SexeA'rs.—Mr. Lowry, from the Committee on
Federal Relation's, to whom was referred a num
ber of petitions asking the passage of a law to
prevent the emigration of negroes and mulattoes
into this State, submitted a long report adverse
to the prayer of the petitioners. The report says
that it was necessary for the government to sup.
press this rebellion, to gain the sympathy of the
slaves by proclaiming their freedom, and at the
same time depriving the rebels of their labor.
Without agree aid the rebels are lost, and in their
extremity they have bad recourse to their allies
and sympathizers in the North. These petitions
for the exclusion of negroes from the State, and
the petitions for a National Convention are part
of a system to work the damning purpose of trea
son by arousing the prejudices of the people.
There was no cause to fear the influx of negroeS
in this State. They would prefer remaining in
the South if their liberty is secured, and this
Slate should enact no law to thwart the policy
of the government. For these and other reasons
the Committee report against the prayer of the
petitioners.
Mr. Connell introduced a bill to provide for
the support of old and faithful teachers, when
discharged by reason of physical infirmity. Mr.
White offered a resolution, tendering the use of
the Senate Chamber to GOY. Andrew Johnson, of
Tennessee, and Ex-Governor Wright, of Indiana,
for the purpose of addressing the people. The
resolution was advocated by Mr. Lowry, and op
posed by Mr. Clymer, in a powerful speech, on
the ground that these gentlemen are on a par
tisan tour, ac emisearies of the Administration,
and that their chief business is misrepresentation
and denunciation of Democrats. An amendment.
inviting Gen. McClellan to visit Harrisburg, and
granting him the use of the Senate Chamber to
receive his friends, was negatived, and the ori
ginal resolution then passed by a atria , party
vote—yeas 20—all Republicans—nays 10—all
Democrats. Adjourned till Monday evening at
o'clock.
House.—The discussion of the joint resolution
instrtiMifig our &nators in Congress to oppose
the passage of a law appropriating twenty rail_
lionsof dollars to compensate the owners of
emancipated slaves in Missouri, occupied nearly
the whole day's session. The House refused to
grant the use of the hall of the House for the
reception of Governor Johnson and Ex Governor
Wright by a vote of Od to 32. Adjourned till
Monday evening.
SENATe.—A number of petitions were pre
sented for a National Convention. Mr. Reilly
introduced a supplement to the Act regulating
Bulks, requiring any Bank to go into liquidation
when two thirds of the otookholdere so require.
A number of private bills were passed. Ad
-earned,
Housg.—Numbers of petitions were presented
from the interior of the State, asking for a Na
tional Convention. Mr. Smith (Chester), offered
a resolution inquiring of the Governor what
provision, if any, has been glade for the payment
of the expenses of the late draft. The resolution
was adopted. The Committee on Accounts pre
sented the Postage bill of the House, for the
month of February, amounting to $2,429 25, for
approval and payment. Mr. flea offered an
amendment requiring the Postmaster, George
Bergner, to make a public oath at the bar of the
!louse that the account is correct. Mr. Rex
delivered a speech, reviewing the past history of
the Postmaster, and arguing that, from his ante
cedents, it was no more than just and proper
,hat he should be required to swear to his bill.
The amendment was lost by a vote of 11 yeas to
68 nays, and the account was passed. Mr.
Cochran introduced a bill to provide mainten
ance for old. and faithful teachers. Mr_ Vincent,
a bill to provide for a registry of Pennsylvania
soldiers. Adjourned.
SENATE.-Mr. Connell presented the remon
strance of the religions society of Prieatle, of
Pennsylvania, against the imposition of fines
upon those exempted from the late draft on the
ground of conscientious scruples. Mr. Clymer
read in place a bill relative to the publication of
legal notices. n provides that-where such no
tices are required to be published in two News
papers, the publication in one German and one
English paper shall be considered a compliance
with the law, or order of Court. Mr. White in
troduced a set of joint resolutions, pledging " the
i n fl u ence, the honor, and the resources of Penn
sylvania, in men and means, to the support of
the National Authority in all efforts to suppress
the rebellion," and declaring " that the citizens
of all the Staten owe allegiance to the general
government; and' all those denying its 'authority,
or failing in their duty to assist in the sippres
sion of this infamous rebellion, are abettors of
treason, and should suffer the penally of so great
a crime." Laid over. A few private'bills were
nonoidared, and the Senate Mon adjourned.
Horse.—Mr. Kaine introduced a bill making
I it a misdemeanor to occupy or lease any tene
ment or gaiden for any performance in the na
ture or a theatrical exhibition, without first
obtaining a license, and it:Mc:leg a penalty of
tun more than $5OO, and :in imprisonment of one
year for employing women as attendants or for
selling liquor at any such place or amusement.
A number of private bills were considered and
passed; among them, Senate bill, supplementary
to the charter of the Lancaster, Lebanon and
Phlegmy° Railroad Company; and Senate bill
authorizing Courts of Common Pleas to compel
the recording of Deeds and other instruments of
writing. Adjourned.

of the religions Society of Prietl3 tto:aiust the
passage or a law to prevent the immigration of
colored persons into Pennsylvania. The Com
mittee on Banks reported a bill to extend the

discussed during the remainder of the session:
llousn.—The bill to repeal the Act of 1851
abolishing the 4 ‘tontisge tax" on the Pennsyl
vania. Railroad, came op as the special order,
the question being on the amendment proposed,
to impose a general lax on the tonnage of all the
Railroads in the State. After a session of five
hours in length, spent in debate and parliamen
tary motions, the bill was passed, so amended
as to tax all the Railroads in the State on
their tonnage, and also on their capital stock
when dividends are declared exceeding a certain
amount. Adjourned.
Nr. Getz:—ln vain did 1 look through the
Journal of last Saturdv for a reply to my very
plain questions. True, it contained a very
lengthy article headed: "A Copperhead An
swered," but, as you will perceive, it is no reply
to my questions. The editor commences with,
whet we used to say when we were boys,
names"—declariug that., "by my own confession
I am a Copperhead" or sympathizer with the
Rebels, and endeavor to justify myself and my
party friends by the assumption that he. as edi
tor of the Journal. during the Mexican War was
a "Copperhead" also, and gave "aid and comfort
to the enemy." Then he goes on to con
trast the Mexican with the present war;
that it was a war by a powerful nation
upon a weak sister Republic, and that at uo
time during the war was the Government
of the United States in jeopardy &o.; and
after vauntingly declaring, that he is "proud
to be able to state, that the /mimed, of which he
was then as now editor, was then as now in favor
of its vigorous prosecution, and that he was no
'Copperhead,' thank God, even in that compare
atively unimportant contest," and to prove what
he says of himself, he quotes a number of ex
tracts, which he says, by
_way of a clincher,
whether true or false, we know not," were pub
lished in the Journal, during the Mexican War ;
but not being incredulous, I shall admit that
they are reproductions of the Journal—heottlea not
Possessing means to disprove it, L must accept it
as truth.
The reader will find by reference to the Gazelle
of the 21st February, that the editor was never
questioned in regard to any think stated in the
foregoing.
You will notice from the above that the editor
now speaks of the Mexican war as having been
"comparatively an unimportant contou r " yet in
the article of Nov. 28, 1946, which be quotes, he
then said: "Viewed in every aspect, the war pro—
mises to be a protracted one" &o.
Observe, that in all he says, there is not a
word to reply to my questions.
llo.lees I misunderstand the editor of the Jour
nal, " Copperhead" defined is : A traitor to his
country. If that is the proper definition, I beg
letive to say to the editor, that my communica—
tion in the Gazette will not bear the construction
which he places upon it, namely: that I assum
ed " that he, as editor of the Journal, during the
Mexican war, was a traitor (or "Copperhead")
also, and gave "aid and comfort" to the enemy
in that contest." Again I did not Millie the au
thou of the speeches which were quoted in my
communication of treason, much less the editor.
I merely wished him to state, whether, at the
time the offensive sentiments referred to were
uttered, he had condemned the authors; ae Lhe
denunciations, by the editor, of Democrats, who
have during the present war, seen fit to criticize
the acts of the present Abolition Administration,
have been frequent and most severe. I will now
call your attention to that portion of his article
in which, after mutilating what I really did say, he
exclaims "This is not true."
Fatt)Air, March 6
After I had -given the extract from Mr. Ash
mun's speech, the following paragraph corn
menced thus : "Such were the opinions and sen
timents of the party, which the editor of the
Journal supported during that war. Neither
President Polk nor his Secretary of War, ever
threatened to arrest, much less /end to a braille,
fort or prison, any of the enemies of the Admin
ietration or Government for uttering them."
Compare the above with the Journal's version
of it. ;You will discover that he has omitted
the first sentence altogether, and left out the
concluding words; "for uttering them," thereby
altering the sense. Substantially, I say that
neither President Polk nor his Secretary of War,
threatened to arrest, much less send to a beetle,
Sc., for uttering opinions and sentiments, such
as are contained in the speeches already referred
to. But what does the editor make me say ?
Why, that neither President Polk nor his Secre
tary of War, ever threatened any of the enemies
of the Administration or Government. And to
provemy declaration Mt true, he quotes the fol
lowing article from the Journal of Deo. 11, 11140,
which was copied from the Lancaster intelligencer,
(a.Democratic paper,) but whether truly quoted
oi mutilated, "we know not," and which, even if
cora:say quoted, proves more than the editor
bargained for, namely ! that Mr. Parkinson was
"ACCUSED OF HOLDING INTERCOURSE
WITH THE MEXICAN GOVERNMENT," Re.,
for which he was arrested ; but not for uttering
certain opinions and sentiments; and no doubt
he was also legally tried in a civil court, and if
found Innocent, most assuredly acquitted. DM
to the article in question :
" HIGH TaamiON.—Mark 11. Parkinson has
been arrested at New Orleans, accused of holding
intercourse with the Mexican Government," Ste.
The reader will perceive a marked difference
between being accused of uttering certain opin•
ions and sentiments, and being mused of hold ,
ing intercourse with the Mexican Government.
The editor of the Journal must " pick his flint
and try again." But, I suppose he will abandon
the idea of finding proof on the files of the Jour
nal that President Polk or his Secretary of War
ever even threatened to arrest, or sent to a hostile,
fort or prison, any person for uttering senti
ments against the Administration or Govern
ment. Would to heaven the seine could with
truth be said of the present Abolition Moguls
tratien.
Although I have, in another part or this OM
munication, agreed to admit his reproductions
from the Journal to be true quotations ; yet, af
ter having discovered the above seemingly wilful
mutilation, I must confess to a want of implicit
confidence in the editor's statements or quota
tions hereafter, unless he explains the disorepan
cy complained of.
The editor of the Journal requests us to name
the Democratic paper, which in the present des
perate struggle for national existence, stands up
for the country and the war for its salvation
now, &c. I would refer him to the Reading Ga
zette, but as it is not to be supposed that I keep
a file of the same, I cannot furnish him with ex
tracts. The editor of the Journal knows that the
Gazelle is as loyal a paper as is published in the
country-4n reality more so than the Journal.
The editor's insinuation, in regard to the truth
or falsity of the "extreme" published in the Ga
zette, comes with rather a bad grace from such a
quarter, after having himself, as already is
shown, been guilty of a "seemingly wilful mutila
tion), By reference to the Clengressietitti Glebe,
to which no doubt he, as en editor, can have ac
cess, he may satisfy himself of the correctness of
the "extracts." While upon the subject I will
confess, that the 'extracts" were furnished me
by an intimate friend, in whom I have the most
in elicit confidence ; who would not
under any circumstances, misrepresent any mat
ter to me, but who is now and has fur several
weeks been absent from home. The "extracts"
are undoubtedly quoted correctly, otherwise the
editor of the Journal would have discovered die
orepaneiss by referfinr to the "documents." As
soon as my friend roturne, I may posslbiy be
enabled to answer some' of the editor's' other
questions.
In conclusion, I will again venture to ask the
editor of the Journal several questions, very sint
liar to the fernier ones, to which I now however
expect direct replies
Did he, during the Mexican ivar:, ever condemn
er even as much as find fault, in the Journal,

For the Reading Gazette and Democrat
ItRADING, March 4, 18G3
with the Members of Congress, who expressed
sentiments against President Poik's Democratic
Administration in regard to the war, as rooted
below ?
If, at Mc present ale, a member of Congress,
an editor or• other individual, should utter senti
ments, like those appruded, against President
Lincoln's Abolition Administration touching the
war, would not the editor denounce him as a
'Copperhead" or traitor to his reentry ? By Mr.
Defunb, from Ohio: "Send your armies, in the
prosecution of this ILLEGAL, UNRIGHTEOUS
and DAMNABLE WAS, to the mountains of
Mexico, and disease and the foe will sweep them
Of in lhousana The poses and mountains of
Mexico would become a charnel house for our I
people, and their boors would be scattered all over
its vast territory /;fore this peace would be can
..pterrd. * So far the amount of the appro
priations w. a,b01.0 S 1 -f, OM, WO. 1,1 the popte
44,1 elMllCOildiioll.4el73e, they would hold responii
hie tic authors of this war, which was conceived
in
• fraud and was to he consummated in iniquity."
By Mr. Ashmun: "The pages of history fur
nish no instance of an executive officer so utterly
imbecile and unfit for a post of honor so the pre.
sent President of the United States. Could the
ghosts of the hundreds and thousands, who have
lost their lives by sickness• and the sword in
Mexico speak, they would shout that THEIR
MURDERER WANI JAMES K. POLK, and his
wretched cabinet. When we are done with this
war, and the autourit of b!•;od of free horn Ameri
cans shed through his mismanagement is known;
when the immense debt brought upon vs is set forth
in dollars and cents; then will his fellow citizens
bewail that day upon which they cast their suf.
fragcs for such a man."
And now, Mr. Editor of the Journal, be candid
and frank in your reply to these plain questions.
"Make a clean breast of it." Do not, however
say, that because the Mexican war was not of
such magnitude as the pregent war • therefore it
VMS right and proper for these Members of Con
gress to criticize and denounce the Admioistra•
Lion in the worst kind of terms; but to criticize
and denounce the present. Administration in the
same manner is treasonable. The principle con
tended for is in both canes the same. When the
above sentiments were put forth to the world, we
were engaged in a bloody struggle with a relent
less foe, which continued, if 1 mistake not, for
nearly two years, although, as the editor is pleased
to say, it "was a war by a powerful nation upon
a weak sister Republic." X
