ExoEsarcrrp PAPER MONK ISSUES,
AID WHERE WE ARE 'DRIFTING.
Paper Mow/ is ; increasing,daily, says a
Philadelphia cotemporary, and as a neces
sary consequence, gold and silver are quo
ted at extravagant prices. But gold is not
.of higher value than. before, and although
it is said to be 29 per cent. above par, yet
in effect it is at par—it is the standard—
but paper money is really depreciated that
much; and just so fast as it is increased
in quantity so much greater will be the
depreciation. What then must be the effect
if, in addition to the amount authorized by
law, there should be, as is too probable,
an over-issue f The paper is made with
out the usual caution, indeed with a de
termined carelessness; for it is a fact,
known to all, that no part of the hundreds
of millions of circulating paper had the
signature of any one. On the larger notes
there is an engraved imitation, but en the
twenty-file millions of dollars of postal cur
rency, being the small sum intended for
change, there was no signature ever pre
tended or imitated, and the paper immedi
ately wears thin and susceptible of ready
counterfeiting. But worse than this is
the increase of prices, which is but the
correlative of depreciation of paper. If
our mechanics and laboring men could re
flect for a moment, they would not be de
ceived by Secretary Chase's financial de
lusions, but would know that the prices of
the necessaries of life would be reduced
twenty per cent. if specie were the curren
cy instead of paper of less value. Our
wise financiers have made it hard for the
poor. While the luxuries accessible to
the rich are but little varied in price, those
thins whieh:the poor thought necessary
are hard to be got. Coffee, tea, sugar,
such things are so extravagantly high as
to make them unattainable.
- Our financiers have failed, but the dis
astrous effects are not yet realized. The
time however is near, when privation, if
not starvation will make the masses bet
ter understand this subject.
ALL AMERICA "DISLOYAL."
We see it alleged that the late elections
are the consequence of "disloyalty" in the
people. "Disloyalty" to what? To New
England Sectionalism, which tries to sub
ordinate the people spread over two mil
lions of square miles to the corner-cup
board alongside of Masachusetts Bay and
the Bay of Fundy ? To Abolitionism,
which rather than fail in its black enter
prise, would topple American liberty from
its pedestal, and set in its place a Despot
ism with some root-colored Solouque for
Emperor, at no remote period? What if
Massachusetts herself should turn "dis
loyal," and Maine and Connecticut? This
cuckoo-cry of "disloyalty" a match for
the complaint of the man in the mad
-twine. He was asked by a visitor who
had known him in former years, how be
had 'managed to get there? "Why said
the poor bedlamite, "there is a dispute be
tween me and the world. I think the
world is crazy; the world thinks I am
crazy; but the world is strongest, and here
I am." The box into which the madman
was placed for thinking all the world cra
sy, furnishes an image of the close quar
ters in which those maniacs will goon be
comprised who insist that the American
people are "disloyal."
PLODS AT THE ELECTION.
We have inklings of the perpetration of
some of the very grossest of frauds at cer
tain preeincte in this county, where the
election all went one way. Paupers and
minors, and men too dailkito be.admitted
into the ranks of the army, as "volunteers,
voters-- 7 good Democrats.—
Ile-Democratic case was eminently
worthy of auch. support This may:account
for .the uppreeedented Inajoritf—R • p u s.,
. •
gerWe have no hesitationln flatly con
tradicting the foregoing. It is asheer fabri.
cation, and we dare Brother Evans to the
proof. Such charges are too grave to be
made lightly, and recklessly of their truth,
as they doubtlees are in this instance.—
They may afford a grain of comfort to dis
appointed and sore-headed Abolitionists,
but it is at the sacrifice of honor and
alagbasimity on the►part of our opponents.

"LOOK 01 THICSIMM AID , 01
THAT."
For almost eighty years the progress of
the United gtates, in all that constituted
greatness, was so marked that the world
looked on atria zed. Its growth in popu
lation, wealth, and intelligence, the devel
opment of its exhaustless mineral re
sources, its thousands and tens of thous
ands of miles of railroads and canals,
its countless ships and steamers, its myr
iads of newspapers, its free schools,
and its glorious laws and Constitution.
were the wonder, admiration and eavy of
the nations of the earth. For eighty
years our progress was one of unexam
pled success, and as we gazed abroad over
this glorious country of ours, teeming
with all the elements of greatness, there
was ample room for the boast that this
land and this people were the favored land
and the favored people of God.
Reader, for nearly the whole of this long
period of eighty years, the Government of the
United States was administered by the Demo
cratic party. Washington, Jefferson, Mad
ison, Jackson, Monroe, were all Demo
crats.
Less than two short years ago the Abo
lition party el ected Abraham Lincoln to
the Presidency ; an abolition Congress
and an Abolition senate made the laws
of the
,nation, and lehold the,,terrible re
sult! In less than two short years where
are we?
Look abroad over this beautiful, God
favored land now and contrast the picture
it presents to-day with that it presented
two years ago I Where is that glorious
Constitution of ours, the most perfect code
of laws ever devised by human wisdom ?
Behold it, a torn, broken, despised, disre
garded instrument. The foot of the black
Abolitionist is upon it, while he denoun
ces it as a "covenant with hell."
Where, s our boasted freedom of speech?
the once proud prerogative of an Ameri
can citizen. Gone, we fear, forever. The
mouth of the freeman is gagged, while
ruthless Abolition revels amid the ruin it
has wrought.
Where 'is that Union, once our pride
our joy; that Union cemented by tike best
blood of our fathers, and hallowed by all
the glorious associations which cluster
around it? Divided, bruised, broken, it
lies a gigantic ruin, a crushed, broken
monntuent of its former greatness and
grandeur.
Where are the peaceful relations which
once existed between the North and the
South ? The hand of the son is raised
against the father, brother against broth
er, friend against friend. Hundreds of
thousands of our best citizens have given
their life's blood to defend the Constitution
and laws, and hundreds of thousands
more are in the field ready to lay down
their lives . if necessary. An hundred
thousand hearthstones rendered desolate ;
and scores of thousands of widowed wives
childless parents, and fatherless children,
fill the land with the wail of the bereaved
and stricken ones.
Ten thousand factories; an hundred
thousand workshops are closed; the loom
and the spindle have ceased their busy
hum.; the fire in the forge has gone out ;
the hammer and'plane of the carpenter,
the ring of the mason's trowel, the sound
of the thrashing flail, and the joyous hum
of industry that was wont to prevade our
land in every direction, have all ceased,
and the dead pall of a ruined, betrayed
people has fallen over us.
A debt of sixteen hundred millions of dol
lars is already,fasteneci upon the people,
and increasing its already vast propor
tions at the rate of two million of dollars
a day.
These, people of Pennsylvania ! people
of the United States! these are the re
sults of two years of Abolition rule.—
This is but the beginning, Who is prepar
ed to say what the end will be ? None,
save that God who knoweth all things.
—Phila. Union.

•Sappose you go to war, YOU CANNOT
FIGHT ALWAYS; an when. after much
loss on both sides and NO GAIN ON
EITHER, gnu cease fighting, THE IDEN
TICAL OLD QUESTIONS, as to terms of
intercourse, ARE AGAIN UPON YOU."
So said Lincoln to the Rebels in his In
augural, and there is a world of truth in
it. After all the terrible sufferings and
sacrifices incident to this war, after the
awful loss of life attending it, and after all
the ruin and bankruptcy it must inevita
bly bring on individuals, and classes and
on both sections of the country, the mat
ters of dispute and difference between he
two sections must ultimately aryl-after all,
be settled by dispassionate and 'reasonable
negotiation. This_ being the ease, what a
stupendous movement of °hums* folly and
crime this war is! Ant what - a fearful
responsibility rests on , the guilty° dema
gogues and rebels who brought it on the
country !
LINOOLN VS. LINOOLN.
President Lincoln, in his Inaugural Address,
used the following language :
"I have no purpose directly or indirectly, to
interfere with the institution of slavery in the
States where it exists. Thelieve I have ao lawful
right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.
Notwithstanding the above declaration, on
the 22d of September, 1852. Mr. Lincoln is-
sued a proclamation, in which this astounding
passage occurs:
"That on the let day of January, in the year
of ow Lord one thousand eight hundred and
sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within
any State or any designated pared a State, the
people whereof shall then beta rebellion agitinst
the United States,,shall be then, thenceforth
and foreve free."
SHIPPING NEGROES NORTH.
The Government recently authorized
Gen, Tuttle, commanding the forces at
Caiio, to "turn over s to responsible com
mittees, nen) women and children, who
will take them in charge end supply them
with employment and support in the
Northern States, and furnish transporta
tions at Government expense."
SO begins the negro emigration to the
North. White labor will be swept.away,
inside of a year, by the colored avalanche.

The Chicago limes, indignant at the ef
fects of the Abolitionists to appropriate
any share of Judge Douglas' fame to ad
vance their vile purpose, revives the fol
lowing, which took place in the Senate of
the United States on the 25th of March,
1861. The Republicans had just passed
territorial bills, which contained Judge
Douglas' great principle of popular sover
eignty, (since repealed, however,) when
the Judge remarked, in a playful manner,
as follows to the previous Presidential
campaign. Said he :
"That is a very good policy—a much
wiser and better one than I had expected
or hoped for from a Republican adminis
tration. I do not know that I should have
made as great efforts to defeat them, if I
had thought they would have acted with
as much wisdom and patriotism.
"Mr. Clarke—You did not defeat them.
"Mr. Douglas—No ; nor would I have
made as great efforts to defeat them.
"Mr. Clarke—You,did us no harm
"Mr. Douglas—lf I did not defeat you
it was not my fault. I used my best efforts
to do it.
Mr. Clarke—You could not quite come
"Mr. Douglas—l eould Not quite come
it, and you see the consequence. Seven
States are out of the Union, civil war is im
pending ever you, commerce ie interrupted,
confidence destroyed, the country is going to
pieces just BECAUSE I COULD NOT DEFEAT YOU!
No man in America believes these corm
, quences would have resulted if I bad been
successful in my efforts to defeat you.—
You can boast that you have defeated
mc, but you have defeated your country with
me. You can boast that you have tri
umphed over me, but you have triumphed
over the unity of these States. Youvt rltt-
UMPLI HAS BROUGHT DISUNION, and God
only knows what consequences may grow
out of. it.
This was on the 25th of'March. In the
ensiring April• the rebels attacked Fort
Stimter, the President issued his procla
mation declaring the existing rebellion and
calling for seventy-five thousand volun
teers to suppress it, and the war com
menced. It was on the first of the ensu
ing May that, in Chicago, Douglas made
the last public speech of his life, in which
he said :
" We cannot close our eyes to the sad
and solemn fact that the war does exist.—
The Government must be maintained, its ene
mies overthrout ; and the more stupendous
our preparations, the less bloodshed and
the shorter the struggld. But we must re
member certain. restraints on our actions evert
in timc of war. We are a Christian people,
and the war must be prosecuted in a manner
recognized by Christian nations.
"WE MUST NOT INVADE CONSTITUTIONAL
RIGHTS. The innocent must not suffer, nor
women and children be the victims. Savages
must not be let loose. But while I sanction
no war on the rights of others, I will
implore my countrymen not to lay down
their arms until our omit rights are recog
nized.
"THE CONSTITUTION AND ITS GUARANTEES
ARE OUR BIRTHRIGHT, AND I AM READY TO
ENFORCE THAT INALIENABLE RIGHT TO THE•
LAST EXTENT. We cannot recognize seces
sion. Recognize it once, and you have not
only dissolved the government, but you
have destroyed social order, upturned the
foundations of society. You have inaug
urated anarchy in its worst form, and will
shortly experience all the horrors of a
French revolution."
This was on the Ist of May. At the
expiration of another month he was dead,
and these were his dying words : TELL
THEM TO OBEY THE LAWS AND SUPPORT THE
CONSTITUTION."
We know of nothing more monstrous
than that Abolitionism should undertake
to appropriate Douglas to its present use.
His whole life, not more than his dyine
breath, was a 'neatest against Abolitionism,
and no statesman so clearly as he foresaw
its culmination, and so often and earnestly
warned the country of it and besought it
to avert it.
When again Abolitionism shall dare to
outrage the memory of the dead states
man, let his last injunction repulse it :
"TELL THEM TO OBEY THE LAWS AND SUP
PORT THE CONSTITUTION."
CURIOSITIES OF THE DRAFT.
Says the Erie (Pa.) Gazette :—The
freaks of the draft are innumerable.
It took all hands in Burgess' whole
sale grocery, including both proprie
tors ; both the Johnsons, of the firm
of Johnson & Brother, grocers, their
book-keeper and clerks; Dr. Strong
and Mr.,Starr, of Strong's drug store.
It went into the legal fraternity
strong, and in many instances two
out of firms and families were drawn.
Mrs. Foot, of Mill Creek, is left
alone, all her sons, three in number,
have been drawn.
Says the Pottsville, Pa., Miner's
Journal : Commissioner Hobart
commenced the draft for this county
on Thursday last, and it was expect
ed would finish last evening. The
number drafted was 1,667. We will
endeavor to give a list of theses
in our next issue. When the draft
was made for Tamaqua, all the law
yers in the place but one were drawn
Among them is George H. McCabe,
Esq., who was a candidate last year
for President Judge of this District,
and James Ryon, Judge elect. J. J.
Conner, Esq., a heavy coal opperator
bf Ashland, and Mr. Jacob G. Gensel,
a candidate at the recent election for
County Commissioner, were also
drafted. Some . of the most promi
ntrit business 'men of Pinegrove were
also drawn.
George, C. Franeiscus, Superinten
dent of the Philadelphia Division of
the Pennsylvania Railroad, has been
drafted from Tredyfrin, Chester
county, where he was boar ding a por
tion of the summer. This not .hay- ' ,
ing been the permanent residence of
Mr. Franciscus, the result will probit
bly be deemed null and void.

blilo,
A large meeting of the Democracy of
Ohio was held at Chillicothe, on the 4th
inst., at which es-Senator Allen deliver
ed a speech, in .the course of which he pre
sented the following picture of negro
emancipation in consequence of the Presi
dent's Proclamation :
"Suppoe that the contemplated emanci
pation should be inaugurated successfully,
seven or eight hundred thousand negroes,
with their hands reeking in the blood of
murdered women and children, would pre
sent themselves on our Southern border
demanding to cross over into our State, as
Ohio's share of the freed slaves—seven or
eight hundred thousand negroes, without
money, without food and without personal
property of any kind, who, in virtue of na
ture's law, were compelled to eat and be
clothed. Then would come the conflict
between the white laborers and the ne
groes. The negroes. would enter into such
competition with the white laborers that
the latter would have to abandon the field
of labor here—make way for the negroes
or maintain their ground by Waging a war
on the negroes, that would result in driv
ing them from the State, or in their exter
ruination. It was hard to competa,white
man who earned seventy-five cenis7,a, day
to contribute twenty-Eve cents of that sum
to be expended in schemes to buy the free
dom of the negro. He won't like that.—
The fanatics claim that these schemes are
prompted by philanthropy. Carried out,
they would end in the death of the ne
groes. If it were possible to colonize the
negroes in Central America, where it is
proposed to colonize them, they would
starve, and if emancipated and, not re
moved from our country, their extermina
tion was sure to follow.
Until the negroes shall be recognized as
socially and equal of white men, they can
not be politically their equal. None of
those fanatics, who claim to be acting in
behalf of philanthropy, would consent
that their sons and daughters should in
termarry with the negro. From the mar
riage altar spring our political privileges;
if not equal there, we are not politically
equal. No objections are interposed to
our eons and daughters intermarrying
with Englishmen, Germans, Irishmen,
Frenchmen, &c. We all belong to the
same family. We are simply the advance
guard—they are the guard—our fathers,
mothers, brothers and sisters. All these
intermarry, and soon the blood becomes
melted into the great pool of American
blood. Not so with the negro. He does
not belong to the same family. God
created him differently. That he is dif
ferent is palpable to the philosopher,
if not the theologian, and why he was cre
ated differently is immaterial for us to
know; it is sufficient for us to know that
he is different, without seeking to obtain
the affidavit of the Almighty on the sub-

COL. MAXWELL Mc.CARLIN.
We make the following extracts from a
letter just received by the Junior Editor
from our old friend McCasLIN f
Net; Creek, Hampshire. Co., Oct. 23.
"I have had quite good health since I
have been in the army, but I don't know
how long it will remain so• We have, at
this point, about 900 men, consisting of
cavalry artillery and infantry.
We have some Pickets skirmishing
about five miles from here, in the direc
tion of Romney. I have not been much
in the military lately as you know very
well ; yet I feel myself perfectly in my el
ement here. We have stationed here the
106th New York Regiment, and Col. Mul
ligan's Irish Brigade, and the 15th Vir
ginia drills with the best of them, litho'
the Regiment is quite young.
I intended to have written you consid
erable, but having been invited by the
officer of the day to accompany him on a
visit round the pickets and outpost
through the mountains, I must close."
PENALTY FOR DRATTED MEN.
Some of the papers are publishing the fol
lowing as the penalty for drafted men refusing
to serve when drafted. It is, however, proper
to say that the present draft is enforced under
an act of Congress of July 17th, 1862. which
states, among other things, that "the President
is authorized to snake all necessary rules and
regulations" in cases where State laws are de
fective as to the enrollment or execution of the
draft :
"AN ACT to provide for the suppression of re
bellion against and resistance to the laws of
the United States, and to amend the act en
titled "An act to provide for calling forth the
militia to execute the laws of the Union,"
&c., passed February twenty-eight:- seven-
teen hundred and ninety five." -
"Sec. 4. And be it 'further enacted, .That ev
ery officer, non-commissioned officer, or private
of the militia, who shall fail to obev the orders
of the President of the United States
in any of the cases before recited,
shall forfeit a sum not exceedidg one year's
pay, and not less than one month's pay to be
determined and adjudged by a court-martial;
and such officer shall be liable to be cashiered
by a sentence of court-martial, and be incapa
elated from holding a commission in the mili
tia for a term not exceeding twelve months, at
the discretion of the court; and such non-com
missioned officer and private shall be liable to
imprisonment, by a like sentene, on failure of
payment of the fines adjudged against them,
for one calendar month for every twenty-five
dollars:of such fine."
"Sac. 5. And be it further enacted, That
courts martial for the trial of militia shall be
composed of militia officers only."
Approved July 29, 1861,

should perhaps say, Uncle Abram, is tak
ing good care of the contrabands. A
