tSf The State LrgUlnture to far as tb
fVnatt rwcoucerncu, it inn inacuvt knot nut
fwt made a single more in business, because
tbt to eallod democrat refuse to permit
any thing t . dnue, unless a portion of
tli offices ate flren to them, while tbe
union member refuse, bemuse they thiDk
it unfair and unjust that tliry should yield
their rights because one of tlwlr number it
vofortaaatebj absent at a prisoner, in the
hands of Ji ff Davit. Thus the people can
noW see how tnucli natiiotism it found in
the composition of men who represent the
tfrent State of Pcnnsjlvnnit in the Legisla
ture. It shows that the love of office and
greed for gain st allows up every other
consideration. Here is a body of men who
have been nearly ono month In session,
stopping, so far at they are able, the wheels
of government for the purpose of giving,
perhaps, a few worthless drones, a few
crumbs from the public crib. The whole
proceeding it a disgrace to the age. aud if
the. peoplo had a proper appreciation of
tbe service of such men, they would put a
teal of eoTuWmnfltion on them, that would
enable tbtn hereafter to tend men to
represent them whose patriotism extends
further than their own pockets.
fly A correspondent, from thlt place,
of that rebel sheet, the Seliusgrovc Timet,
in hit account of the attack on the "De
mocrat" office, givet utterance to the follow
ing outrageous lauguage. The declaration
of the writer, that he is a "law-abiding citi
ten," it all bosh, when be counsels revenge,
and appeals to mob law, which he knows,
or ought to know, if he has braina to know
anything, involves the innocent with the
guilty. The following is the closing para
graph of this beautiful epistle :
"Wo are not yet' in possession of all the
facts. This it republican teaching and
practiec. and should their infernal abolition
papers be routed they must blame themselves.
The Democrats are" largely in the mnjority
ia this county, and it is their duty to de
mand that a Democratic paper be printed
here, and if this is refused civil liberty is
gone, and they have as good a right to riot
aa-rt destroy property as the Abolitionists.
I am a law-abiding citizen, but if the law is
refused to redress our grievances then I Bay
it it the duty of every Democrat to take
revenge, though it leads to anarchy of the
worst form. So we go on under Abolition
role."
These sentiments are in keeping with
those expressed by another individual who,
after Laving, himself, pointed out the office
ct the Democrat to the soldiers, regretted
. that he had not directed them to this office.
We trust and believe such sentiments arc
entertained by few, if any, intelligent and
honorable citizens.
At tome of our readers may desire to
know the style and opinion of a hair-brained
editor, of one of our own rebel organs,
near borne, on this subject, we quote the
following from the Selinsgrove Timet:
"Abolition OrTiiAQE. By reference to
communication from Sunbury, in this
issue, it will be sru that the Abolitionists
f Sunbury have at last managed to get a
Aat of niircTj'r-ve.ecliii-mlnn. 1 ! I r.v t. rlic w
Jog, hell-hound cutthroats to destroy the
printing material of the XortJiumbeiltind
County Dcmnerrt. The least wish wo can
. extend to them is that, when they go back
to the army, every scoundrel may have his
brains blowcd out by a secessionist. Toward
euch men we can cutcrt.-tin neither charity
nor mercy, and it would Us a great pity if
there was no hell of everlasting Jjre to put
them into. The Abolitionists of Selins
grove, we understand, are highly "pleased
with the affair. We would (suggest that
they have a special prayer-meeting for the
occasion, to return thanks to the lord for
the many "liberties" and blessincs thrv
enjoy during the reign of Old Abe! We
would also suggest that it would bo very
appropriate to havo a cu.Vgy written upon
the great affair and have it published in
the Pott! If Mr. Purely ennrtot get justice
every Abolition paper in 8unbnry ought to
be gutted ; but we hope and "believe he
will be able to secure justice by due process
of law, as they have r.o bull-dog for a
Judge over there."
History of the Tort Pahty. Un
der this bead tome of the most rampant
Copperhead Journals are publishing an
article from the "New York Day Book," a
notoriously traitorous paper of tmall calibre.
The character of tht writer, and the extent
of bit logic, may be judged from the follow
ing stupid extract :
"If it ehould be uknd. u it very reasonably might
be why it waa (bat Washington who was elricily
hooMt aud patriotic, appoints.! auoh a corrupt man

The spectacle it presented to the world,
such as the world never before taw, that
the great National Loan of Five Hundred
Millions of Dollars have all been tubtcribed
by the People of the United States, and at
this time not a dollar remains of it. Kay,
not all thit : on Wednesday last the amount
remaining untaken was between six and
tcven millions; but on the next day, the
depositct in the hnndt of Messrs. J. Cooke
& Co., the Government agents lor the dis
posal of the bonds, received at tho principal
office and at tho tub-agencies, deposits
which amounted to ten million! beyond the
amount authorittdt Well dort the Xorth
American retnard upon thit grand picture
of our National strength :
This it the test of National confidence
and feeling this it tbe mercury in whose
rise or full is the right reading of tho popu
lar feeling. Let it Tjejudgcd, then, whether
the Administration ia to be supported; let
it be decided whether the rebellion is to be
killed ; let it be inferred whether the Gov
ernment is to be supplied with men and
money ; whether the credit of the Nation
now aud hereafter is to be maintained, from
(acts like the potenial one wc nra gratified
in being able to record.
We trust that these mighty evangelists of
patriotism may be principally retained at
home. In the brst instance they area good,
sure and profitable investment. Then their
annual interest will continue ns an ever-
iettilizing dew to enrich onr own people.
But, more notably, every man possessing
them will be pledged by the exact amount
of his iuvestinent, to uphold the cause of
law and order, the cttuso of humanity, good
government, industry and prosperity.
For the welfare of the republic through
nil tune, therefore, a well ns for the success
of the great Cause of luw, liberty, order and
good government, lately imperiled, and
which we are at present engaged in uphold
ing, we rejoice to see how thoroughly and
how practically the people believe in the
Administration, and how nobly they came
forward to strengthen its hands in the work
with which it is charged.
But. let it be prominently borne in mir.d
that, in all this successful maintenance of
the country, there has been no combination
of capitalists. The subscription have come
fro ai till parts of tho Nation, and from every
class of population. There is great assur
ance of good in this very simple tact. And
let the abounding resources of the Nation
be judged from the additional fact that
over sixteen millions of dollars were sub
scribed in one day only, so that the sub
scribed sum exceeds the authorized amount
by ten millions of dollars.
Robert Dale Owenj in the "Atlantic
Monthly," contributes an interesting histori
cal account of a mental epidemic which
visited Europe over a century ago among a
class of people called "The Convulsionists
of 4t, Medard," Thuy were followers of a
certain schismatic prlikt, Dlacro Paris. In
their fits of fannstic enthusiasm these "Con
vulsionists" would suffer frightful self-inflictions.
CTRIOrs TOnTCRF.8.
"The restless enthuisi.ism of the convul
sionists ultimately bet raved them into ex
travagances, in which It is often hard to
decide whether the grotesque or the horrible
more predominated. One convulsionist de
scended the long stairs of an infirmary head
foremost, lying on her back; another caused
herself to be attached by a rope round her
neck to a hook in the wall. A third re
peated her prayers while turning somersets.
A fourth, suspended by the feet, with the
head hanging down, remained in that posi
tion three-ipunrters of un hour. A lifth,
lying down on a tomb, cmispd herself to bo
covered to the neck with baked earth mixed
with sand and saturated with vinegar. A
sixth made her bed in winter on billets of
wood : a seventh on bars of iron. The Sister
Fclicitc was in the habit of causing herself
to co nailed to the cross, and of remaining
there half an hour at a time, gaily convers
ing with tjie pious who surrounded her.
Another sister, named Scholastiqtic, after
long hesitation between different modes of
mortification, having one day remarked the
mitnucr iu which they constructed the pave
ments of the streets, had her dress tightly
fustened below the knee, and then ordered
one of the assistants to take her by the legs,
and, with her head downward, to dash it

the fashion of paviors when using a ram

tJTThe following occount of tht funeral
of Captain Luther 8. Martin will U read
with iutcrctt by many of hit friends and
relative here. Captain Martin formerly
worked in thit office: .
THE FUNERAL OT CAPTAIN LUTHER
B. MARTIN, , .
Wat attended from the First Prr-ahvti-rian
church pn Friday last, at 8 o'clock, P. M. It
was expected and understood, that a company
of our city militia would attend in uniform,
and accompany tbe remains to the cemetery,
and fire a volley over the resting place of
one who bad given his life for hit onuntry.
But owing to some failure in procuring their
equipments this part of the ceremony failed.
Wc were pleased, however, to tec that Colo
nel Wilson aud Colonel Cox, and some ef
the junior staff officers, were present to act
at a guard of honor.
From tho statements made by the Pastor
at the funeral, we gathered the following
leading facts of interest in the life and death
of Captain Martin :
Ho wat born in Sunbury, Pcnnsvlvania.
At the time of his death he was thirty-six
yeans of age. Ho had been a resident of
Klirabeth about ten years, when the war
begau. Here he formed a circle of acquaint
ances and fricuds who honored him for his
mttuly and generous quantities, and respect
ed him as a quiet, and useful citizen. At
the first proclamation of tho President call
ing for voluuteers to suppress the rebellion,
young Martin was among the first to respond.
No oue can question the purity of his patri
otism, or the sincerity of his purpose to
serve his country in any position ; for he
immediately enlisted ns n private in the
First New Jersey volunteer. Belbro the
regiment left Trenton he was piomoted to
the position of Orderly Sergeant, and then
of Second Lieutenant, lie was present at
the first battle of Bull Run. Taken sick, he
was compelled to resign, from the feeling
that his health was so tar impaired us to
prevent further usefulness in the army.
Remaining at homo six months, and re
covering his health, he immediately upon
the second cull for volunteers set about
raising a company ia the 1-lcvcuth New
Jersey regiment.
Such was the confidence of those viho
knew of Lis previous ;;;0',1 conduct and his
soldierly quulitics. that he soon raised a
company i-t one hundred and twenty mem
bers. lie was at the battle of Fredericksburg,
where the iron hail swept down whole com
panies of our brave fohliirs as irrass falls
under the scythe. lie w:;s spared to take
part in the battle of Chancellorviile. In
this, engagement he was slightly wounded.
But he hud not the first clement of u "shirk"
in his composition. A few days found him
again at his post. Retreating slowly before
the pressing hosts of Lee's tinny, our army
fell bock to the famous bultle ground of
Gettysburg, when lnrd-won victory was
plucked from the hands of a haughty and
overconfident foe. Here Cautain Martin
I distinguished himself for his intrepidity and
I noble hearted devotion to that ilg under
i which he had sccu neat ly two years of active
service.
His regiment formed part of Carr's bri
gade, Sickles' division. Kearly in the en
gagement of the second day the Colonel of
the Lieveuth regiment was wounded ; the
Lieutenant-Colonel was sick uiul absent
from tho field, the Major was ulso soon
wounded, and the command devolved upon
Captain Marti;', as senior cnptniii.
lie aecepU'd the responsibility with alac
rity, mid drawing Lis sword exclaimed, as
the order was given for the regiment to join
in n charge : Forward, my brave men, for
ward," and - the Kuij, not fbllotved. He
wits wounded in the uuklc mid fell, but im
mediately sprang up and finding that be
could still walk, aguiu waved hit nord and
i cried : "Forward, my men, forward !"
j Such tin example could not be otherwise
than effective in its influence. Win) would
dure to draw back when shcIi an oiiiccr
! cried "forward ?" In a few moment j lie
j received another ticsh wound in tho thigh,
which again prostrated liiin on the lieid. As
! he was bcinx born from tho field by the
I Lieutenant of his own company, mid three
privates, a shell exploded bo near tho party
that one was killed, one wounded, .and ii
third run away, leaving the lieutenant alone
witlt ins loveit cnptaiu. 1 iiiliiir Hint liu
presence wus unavailing for his relief, ("apt.
Martin told his faithful comrade to "take
care of himsell." Upon the battle-field
severely wounded himself by the shell which
had scattered those who were carrying him
off, lay this gallant soldier, with untie to
give him so much as "a cup of old water,"
until nisjut ilrcw iter daik veil over taut

lie was visiti-d occasionally by some sol
dier during the night, although it was im-.
possible to remove the wounded nt that
time. At twelve o'clock on the night of
Thursday ho was alive, but at two on tho
morning of Friday he was dead.
Ah ! who shall tell of the thoughts of
home, of the loved wife, and of the four
little children there, which gathered thick
and fast in the mind of that htisbiiud rttul
lather, as he lay dying on thu Initio field,
through the weary hours of thut summer
nitfht, with none to watch over him save
the sileiit stars, 9nd no ear into which to
breathe the remembrances of home, save tho
car of a merciful God. But niuy we not
hope thut he sought and found tho pardon
ing mercy of God and peuco with Him,
throuttli t lie blood of Jesus, uud to was pre
pared "to enur into rest."
His body was laid in the grave by his
comrades in the spot where ho died, juM a
little back of that memorable spot, "the
cemetery." ilia remains, disinterred by
hands thut executed the wifh of a loving
wife, were brought to our city und laid iu

and Itmtc of Rcprrtcntath t
Called by the partiality of my fellow
clticens to tbe office of Governor of Penn
sylvania for another term, I appear before
you to tolemnly renew the prescribed obliga
tion to support tbe Constitution of the
United Elates and the Constitution of the
State of Pennsylvania, and to discharge the
responsible trust confided to me with fideli
ty. When first summoned before you, three
year ago, to assume the sacred duties of
tht Executive office, tho long gathering
clouds of civil war were about to break
upon our devoted country, For yeart trea
ton had been gathering in might- had been
appropriating to itt fiendish lust more and
more bountifully of the nations honors
bad crown tteao'ilv bolder in its assunption
of power until it had won the tolerance, if
not the sanction of a formidable element of
popular ttrength even in the confessedly
loyal States. The election of a President
in 1800, in ttrict conformity with the Con
stitution and the laws, though not the
cause, was deemed the fit occasion for the
organized attempt to overthrow the whole
fabric of our free institutions, and plunge a
nation of thirty millions of people into
hopeless anarchv. The crave oll'ence charted
against the President elect seemed alone to
consist in his avowed fidelity to tho Gov
ernment, and Ids' determined purpose to
fulfill his solemn covenant to maintain in
violate the Union of the States. When
inaugurated, ho found States in open rebel
lion, disclaiming allegiance to the Govern
ment, trnutlulently appropriating its pro
perty and insolently coutcmning its authori-
Treason was struggling for supremacy in
every department of administrative power.
In the Cabinet it feloniously disarmed us
our arsenals were robbed" to enable the
armies of crime to drench a continent in
fraternal blood our coasts were left com
paratively dilcncclcss to tall an easy victim
to traitors our navy wus scattered upon
distant sens to render the Republic, helpless
for its own protection officers, educated,
commissioned and tworn to defend the
Government ncninst any foe, became de
serters, defied Heaven in shameless perjury,
and with fratricidal hondsdrew their swords
against the country of their allegiance, and
when treason had thus completed its pre
parations, wanton, wicked war was forced
upon our loyal people.
Never was war so causeless. The North
had sought no sectional triumph, invaded
no rights, inflicted no wrongs upon the
South. It aimed to preserve the Republic
not to destroy it, and even when rebellion
presented the sword us the arbiter, wc
exhausted every effort consistent with the
existence of our Government to avert the
bloody drama, of the last three years. The
insolent alternative presented by treason of
fatal dismemberment or internecine war,
wus met by fjcncrotis efforts to avert the
storm of death which threatened to full;
but the leaders of the rebellion spurned
peace, unless they could glut their infernal
ambition over the ruins of the noblest uud
freest Government ever devised by molt.
Three years in bloody, wasting war, and
the horrible sacrilice of a quarter of 11 mil
lion lives attest tho desperation of their
purpose to overthrow our liberties. Mourn
ing und sorjow spread over the entire nation,
11111I defeat aud desolation are the terriblt
trophies won by the traitor'a hand. Our
people have been sorely tried by disasters,
but in the midst of the deepest gloom to the
grcut cause of our common country, relying
! upon the ultimate triumph ot the right,
: tl.ey have proved themselves equal to the
i stem -duty, and wotty of their rich inheri
tance of freedom. Their fidelity has been
well rewarded. In God's own, good time.
He has asserted His avenging power, and if
this war is pretistcd in by tho lenders of
tiie rebellion,, as has bccouio evident, then
tl.ivciy and treason the fountain and stream
of d;tictird uud death, must toou bhare a
common crave.
In this grand struggle for our honored
nationality, Pennsylvania has won immortal
tiiine. Despite the teachings of the faith
less, and tho hesitation of the timid, she
has promptly and generously met every do-
manil made upon tier, whether to reiie;
iuvusion or to tight the battles of tl.e Vuion
j whenever and wherever her people were
i demanded. Upon every fieid made historic
and sacred by tho valor of our troops, some
j of the martial youth of Pennsylvania have
! fallen. There fs scarce a hospital that has
i not been visited by our kind utiiccrs to the
sick, and wouudeel. there is not a depart-
iiieut iu which brave men do not answer
with pride to the name of our uoble State,
anil while history endures, loyal hearts will
turn with feelings of national pride to
Gettysburg, where the common deiiverunce
of Penusylvan'u and the Union will stand
recorded in the unsurpassed glory of thut
bloody ticld.
I need hardly renew my pledge, that dur
itig the term of otlice on which lum about
to enter, 1 will givo my whole moral and
otlieial power to the prosecution of this war,
and iu aiding the Nultonal Government in
every effort to secure eurly and complete
success over our malignant foes. For the
preservation of our national life, all things
should be subotdinuted. It is the first,
highest, noblest duty of the citizen it is
his protection in person, property, and all
civil und religious privileges, aud for its
perpetuity in form and power, ho owes all
Lis efforts, bis influence, his means, aud his
life. To compromise with treason would
be but to give it a renewed existence, aud
enable it ugaiu to plungo ut into auother
causeless war.
In the destruction of the military power
of thu abellion is alone the hope of peace ;
for while armed rebel march over the toil
of any Mate, no reul freedom can prevail,
and uo governmental authority, consistent
w ith the L'cnius of our free institutions, can
properly operate. The people ot every ritnte
ure entitled, under the Constitution, to the
uoteciiiii of the Government ; and to give
thut protection fully and fairly, rebellion
must le disarmed and troddi-u ia the dust.
By these meant, and these alone, can we
have enduring uuiou, prosperity and peace.
As iu the pu.t, 1 will in the future, in luilh
ful oUiliinco to the outh 1 havo taken,
spare uo nieu iu, withhold no power which
can stiinyihiii the Guu-rnmcnt in thlsXou
diet. To the lucueurvi of the citizent chonn
to tAltuiui.Kr thu Nulioual Government

From Ucnei-al Uraat'a Army.
CnATTANoooA, Jan. 23.
The trains are running regularly between
Nashville and Chattanooga. Colonel Mc
Callum hat arrived with one thousand me
chanics and laborers, and the work of re
building the railroad to Knoxvllle Will be
commenced at once. Supplies are accumu
lating, and we shall commence using full
rations to-day. A lurge number of veteran
voluuteers have left the army, but the bal
ance of power will be maintained by raw
recruits from tho North and deserters from
the South.
Seven hundred recruits came down this
morning, and to-day one hundred and fifty
Rebels deserted to our lines. Tbe portion
of the Rebel army held at Dulton it believed
to number nut more than thirty thousand
men, mostly Kentucky ana Tennessee troons.
held under guard, and it is positively known
that they are killing their best mules for
food.
General Grant came to tho front this
morninir. General Ttidtth left for Knoxvillc
to resume the command of his old division,
mo twenty-third Corps.
Surgeon II. S. Hcwett has been assigned
by Grant as Medical Director for the De
ptrtmcnt of the Ohio, to report to General
riwier in liiu num.
No demonstrations havo recently been
made by tho Rebel guerrillas in front.
Chattanooga, Jan. 23.
Deserters say that John Morgan 1ms arri
ved at Atlanta, and will stmt up a brigade
composed of tho Second Kentucky mid
Third Alubnma Regiment, cavalry anil
mounted Infantry, to cut the Chattanooga
Railroad.
Morgan made a speech at the Washington
Hotel, declaring that the Yankee army must
evacuate Chattanooga.
Tho Ri-bel General Wheeler t on he eve
of a raid. It is believed be will turn in the
direction of Loudon nni Knoxvillc.
A body ot' Rebel cavalry dashed into La
fayette, n few days ago, and conscripted
titty-two men, among whom were two of 80
years of afe.
Parson Brownlow'it brother, who Iny in a
Tuscaloosa dungeon until his finger atid toe
nails rotted off, has aain been captured.
He was in Fedeinl uniform.
On the 20th inst., a fight took place near
Russelville. A large Rebel force attacked
an Ohio regiment on picket, killing Adju
tant Smith mill four iiien, wounding four
teen, and then drove the regiment to Blum's
Cross Road.
We lost ono piece of urtillery.
Generals Grant aud Bittterlleld arrived
to-day.
The Eighteenth Pennsylvania are doing
duty on the top of Lookout Mountain, thu
Seveuty-seventh on the top of Su'id Moun
tain, the highest eminence here.
Tbe Koiilhirn Situation.
Iw:w York, Jan. Zi.
The Timet contnins a translation of a let
ter from a Frenchman, 'formerly of the rebel
nrmy, to a frk-ud here, ilaleu Richmond,
Junuarv II.
He reports the arrival of another agent of 1
the t reneh fcnipcror, named Martigny, who
came via Nassau, and w ho has had so end
mysterious conferences with Jeff. Davis.
It is known, he say, that Jt-IK hns promi
sed to recognize the Empire in Mexico, anil
has also promised France nil the advantages
of the Southern Confederacy if .Napoleon
will only recognize and support the Southern
cause. All our principal men, he says,
think therefore, that n war between Frniice
and the United .Slates is near lit hand.
The writer has no doubt that the plan
proposed of making General Lec a Dictator,
w ill bu adopted as the only means of coun
teracting the strength of the North. Gen.
Lee has expressed bis un illingnc-s to ac
cept the Dictatorship. He anil Jeff. Davis
are on bad terms, and the latter would, in
such a cove, have to retreat. Davis has been
luttcrly very unpopular, in conscipience of
having kept Bragg so long in command.
He lias even contemplated, since dismissing
that General, of giving him command of the
Army of Virginia, and of sending Lee to
Dalton ; out he had to nlmndon the plan on
account of the great influence brought to
bear against it.
General Johnston, who took command of
Brng;'s demoralized army, thought of re
treating to Atlanta, but vvas kept at Dalton
thai he might take advantage of thu proba
ble weakening of the Northern army by fur
loughs and expiring terms of service. JefFs
plan is to keep his armies on the offensive,
though Lee has given the opinion that, with
the miserable condition of the army in re
gard to clothing and provisions, it will be
impossible to do so.
Gen. EurlyV expedition was a miserable
failure, more than a thousand of his veterans
returning We du evmUit, w ith trusted feet
and hands.
The letter w riter says the news from Char
leston is discouraging. Beauregard bus ex
iirtssed the opinion that ho could not hold
Charleston much longer, as Gillmore hits
guns in position by which he could reduce
the city to ashes in a few huurt if he felt in
clined to do so.
One North Carolina regiment doing duty
there iutcuded to desert in a body, but the
plun w as frustrated by one of their iiundH-r
turning informer. Twenty of the lingleuilers
were divided tip amongst other regiments.
The 18th Virginia Regiment, when order
ed tn Alabama, refused to go, and were dis
banded, and used in tilling up other regi
ments, as the only plan to avoid a serious
mutiny.
Bread riots occur almost daily in the
South, and the Hou'liern people are evident
ly getting tired of the war.
John Morgau hue been given the command
nf Magnnler't prmy, but will be no utorv
iiirrc-baful than thu tatter was.
The writer concludes by tu)lng "the dajs
nf the Confederacy aro numbered, aud its
backbone is broken."

PROCLAMATION OF GOV. CURTIS.
HEAPQCAHtlcnS P. M.,
Awt-taSt GitsEnAL'n Pkpahtmkht,
HAltRisDCito. January Slat. 1804
The War Department having authorized
Major General .WinfieM 8. Hancock and
Major General Ambrose E. Burnside, two of
the most distinguished commanders in our
army, to recruit tho Scrond and Ninth Army
Corps, now under their respective commands
to fifty thousand men cnrli, for audi duty at
inty be specially assigned to said Corps by
the War Department, I address myself to the
patriotic and loyal citizens of Pennsylvania,
earnestly invoking them to lend their active
aid to Gsnoralt Hancock and Burnside in
the prosecution .of such measures as they
may adopt, under the regulations of the War
Department, governing enlistments in this
State to fill up the Pennsylvania regiments
and batteries of these noble Corps.
They comprise the following Pennsylva
nia regiments and batteries, vii :
In the Second Army Corps, commanded
by Major General Hancock, are tbe 6Ud, 60th
71st, 72d, 81st, 100th, HGth, 140th, 145th,
and 148th regiments, and Independent bat
teries C and F, and butteries F and G of the
1st Pennsylvania artillery.
In the Ninth Army Corps, commanded by
Major General Burnside, are the 45th, 48th,
r.bth, 61st and 100th regiments, and Dureli's
Independent Battery D.
The reinforcement of our victorious ar
mies in tho field is the only means of bring
ing the rebellion to an early close, and of
forever scaling tho fountain of civil war.
Let us then maintain the illustrious record
which those gallant armies have already
won, and effectively aiding the Government
in securing a glorious future to our country,
by filling tip their ranks now greatly re
duced by disease and the casualties of the
field.
Full information regarding bounties and
enlistments in nny of the Pennsylvania or
nanizations attached to the Second and
Ninth Army Corps, will be found in the
published circulars of Maj.-Getis. Hancock
and Burnside.
By order of A. G. CURTIN.

Tlic War iu the Soullivvrsf.
Nashville, Jan. 23.
Tho excitement regarding Knoxvillc is to
fully without cause. The demonstrations of
Longstreet were apparently intended only to
recover the forage ground taken by Foster,
and the latest information is to (lie effect
thut the rebel chief is retiring. Our troops
ore in winter quarters, und General Foster
anticipates no attack, ami is able to repel
any that Longstieet can make.
There are reasons to doubt the truth of
the report that Lee has reinforced Longstreet.
No active operations r.eed be expected in
that quarter for several vvci ks.
General Vance mid his brigade had cap
tured one of our forage trains, w hen Sturges
went iu pursuit und captured tho entire rebel
force.
Eilbrts are being made to reconstruct the
State government,' but with little hope of its
enrlv return to the Union. The radii-id.
j with Governor Johnson at their heud, favor
the culling of a convention to nullify the
lonstituttou anil trnmcone on emancipation
principles. The people of East Tennessee
are reviving their old project of forming a
separate State of that section. Rebel otlirers
and soldiers continue to come in daily, de
siring to take advantage of tho niti'uesty
proclamation.
