OBE! THE LAWS.
Our counsel to all men is, and always
has been, to respect the laws and consti
tuted authorities. It has been our advice
on all occasions, publicly and privately.—
We hare given it, not because the laws suit
'Granny Evans better than sensible people,
nor because that imbecile says we ought to
so advise our readers; but because it is right
that the laws and the executives of them
should be tweeted until the former can
be remedied, if oppressive or uncon
stitutional, and the latter changed, if
faithless to their duty and obligations,
at the BALI= Box, the slow but sure and
Aids corrector of every public along and
ill. A general disregard of law is the pre
-cursor of anarchy, if not anarchy itself,
and the evils following it are innumerable
and incalculable. Let our Democratic
friends remember this, and let them re
member, too, that the Conscription and all
other laws bear just as hardly on Repub
licans and Abol tionists as on themselves.
and will ultimately excite as much com
plaint and murmuring among their oppo
• nents as among themselves. Never mind
the taunts and reproaches of the Opposi
tion press, of the post-masters and publicans
and other hirelings of the Administration.
Do your whole duty to the country, recollect
ing that it is your country as much as
theirs, and that you have a direct personal
interest in preserving its unity and per
petuating its liberal and benificent system
of Government. The latter has been a
blessing to you, and will be to your poe-
terity, if maintained in all its original ex
cellence. Let us hope that this may yet,
' under God's good Providence, be the re
sult of the terrible ordeal through which
' this people is passing, nowithetanding the
folly and party scheming of mercenary and
' unprincipled demagogues and negro-craz
' ed fanatics.
THE OFFICIAL RETURNS OF THE
PRIMARY ELECTION.
The official returns of the Den3ocratic
Primary Election will be found in anoth
er column.
' Our friend Jacob Shriver, of Whiteley
township, will please pardon us for the
mistake made in the returns of his town
ship. The vote stood as follows :—Shri
ver 113 ; Dinsmore 13"; Donley 4. A
,- - large portion of the vote given against Mr.
Shriver in this township were from other
parts of the county.
SUICIDE.
WILSON PRIOR. of Clarksville, in this
county, committed suicide in an old, un
, occupied dwelling of that village on Thurs
, day last. It, is supposed he was laboring
under mental aberration. His body was
not found till Monday morning, when an
~, inquest was held. The deceased was a
r returned volunteer, and left a large family
of eh ildren .
w•The loyal league is understood, the
Louisville Dentosrat 'says, to take its names

to ge within a league of the seat of war.
A SPEOIMEN Or D'EAOOlt EVAWS'
ENGLISH.
"The Messenger is out in a long hypo
critical article, counseling moderation
among the copperheads. We are glad to
see this."—Greene County Republican,
gir A fair interpretation of the above
lucid and consistent extract is, that the
Deacon is wonderfully fond of the hypo
critical, which we and people genetally
very well knew before he penned the fore
going. His professions and practice, of late,
have beautifully exemplified his charac
ter in this respect.
sign Our Hard-Shell friend, Deacon
Evans, like all little-mirided people, is a
great scandal and gossip-monger, and
beats any old woman hereaway all hol
low. Not having the gumption to get up a
readable article on any known subject, he
must fill hie columns with senseless abuse
of persons, or give up the editorial ghost.
There is scarcely a prominent Democrat
in the county that he has not traduced in
the choicest pot-house style, Even Gen.
Lazear has not escaped hie falsehoods and
billingsgate, good and true man as he is,
and pure patriot. The fellow could not
print a single paper without maligning
somebody, and it matters little to him who
he defames, whether a thousand times bet
ter men than himself, or blameless and
unoffending women. He is a pest and
nuisance in the community, and ought to
be abated. While hypocritically crying
' "No Party," he and the miserabl e crea
tutes who command him have done all in
their power to embitter party feeling, and
to stir up angry, if not deadly strife among
neighbors; and while they control the
press and direct the course of the Opposi
tion, there can be neither peace nor good
feeling. They are full of contentions and
bickerings, and could not live a week if
they had nobody to hate, or traduce. We
know these men well, we have learned
them by heart, having watched their
!movements and tactics, and sounded the
depths of their meanness and hypocrisy.—
I
Though - a "stranger within their gates,"
minding our own business as they never
minded theirs, trying to earn an honest
livinv, wishing to owe no man any thing
but good will, and meddling in no man's
concerns, they have yet hunted us down
with devilish malignity, and for no other
crime than that of being a Democrat, loyal
and true in word and act to the Constitu
tion of the country, but fearlessly denoun
cing the suicidal policy of the Abolition
ists. They have tried to lie us down and
to frighten us down; but they have suc
ceeded in doing neither, and are begin
ning to learn at last that we are not to be
intimidated. The people, the honest, atur
dy, right-thinking people of the county,
are at our side, and have nobly and gen
erously supported us and will to the end,
because we have stood by them, their
rights, liberties, intereate and convictions.
sir Corporal Nincompoop of the "Re
publican" is, as usual, prodigiously dirty
this week, dripping in the filth of the
moral cesspool in which he wallows. Ev
ery thing and every body is bespattered by
it. The defamer of innocent women, he
has sounded the lowest depths of degradation
and infamy. A coward and poltroon, whose
only apology for skulking home from the
army on the approach of danger, was that
be could'nt be Captain or Colonel, though
he oould'nt command the respect or con
fidence of enough soldiers to bury a Ser. ,
geant,--an incorrigible liar, without con
science or decency,—a conceited and preten
tious fool, the jest and laughing-stock of
the community, is it any wonder his ca
lumnies should prove harmless, or that
we should shrink from contact or con
troversy with him
loll' We last week dared the fellow
Evans who dues up the lying for the "Re
publican" on such a magnificent scale, to
point to a single paragraph in any Demo ,
cratic journal in the country counselling
resistance to the laws. So far from doing
it, he is this week silent as the grave on
the subject, and only because he knows he
penned and published an odious and infa
mous falsehood. For fibs of multitude, va
riety and enormity he wears "the belt" and
defies the world. We'll go our bottom dol
lar on him any time. the late Nos. of
his precious sheet aro perfect curiosities
in this particular.
tor "What sort of a chap is that Evans,
does he know any thing 1" inquired a gen
tleman from a neighboring county of a
leading Republican of Waynesburg.—
"Well," replied the party interrogated,
"'he's not right certain of any thing !"
"He's cracked, by jingo," remarked an
, other after reading his "Whangdoodle"
gibberish in this week's "Contraband."—
We can't subscribe to the latter opinion,
however, as we think the fellow's tread is
as empty as a dried gourd, and that he
hos no brains to dizerganize. This, too, is
the general impression.
,Corporal Evans is "terribly sewers"
in the last "Contraband" on the Demo
crati of :Ounkard. Our expostulations
saved the gallant young man's blue crows
ers a vigorous kicking last Fall, when the
drafted men from that township were here,
for some of his printed blackguardiem of
the men and women of that locality. He
will not, of course, expect any such mag
nanimity from us again.
Mir The ancients used to defend their
cities by setting nut vast stink pots to drive
off the enemy. This is the use the Re
publicans in this county are making of
Corporal Evans. The plan works well, as
nobody feels like approaching either his
party or paper.
leirWe are sorry the better and respect
able portion of the Republican party in
this county are without an organ. They
are exceedingly restive under the Evans
infliction. but will havo to bear it, we sup
pose, "yet a little longer." They have
the yrimpatlit tilt- *met people.
ICorporal Evans is evidently anxious
to have us kick him into a little more no
toriety ; but in the opinion of our readers
we havilettlready done him over-much ser
vice in this line. Besides, skunk-stirring is
always a precarious business. If, on these
accounts, we should be still more sparing
of space in our future notices of our gallant
neighbor, he will have the goodness to
overlook the apparent slight. Our readers
however must allow us a little room now
and then for this purpose, as there is but
one way to fight the devil,—"with fire.
)The Corporal is death on bombast.
"Mucklethundereligut" is about the only
big word lie overlooked this week in his
search of Webster. Why will the fellow
make "sick a conspicuous ass of hisself?"
MORE NEW GOODS IN RIOHHILL.

Adams' Mill on Wheeling Creek, have
just opened an elegant and very derivable
assortment of seasonable Dry Goods, No

they will be sold at short profits. Our
friet.ds in Richhill will find it to their in
terest to lay in their supplies at this de
servedly pupurar establishment.
OWNERS OP UNPATENTED LANDS.
The Act of Assembly in relation to the
graduating and valuation of unpatented
lands by the Commissioners of the several
Counties of Pennsylvania, will expire, by
its own limitation, on the first day of Au•
gust, 1863. Those interested, bad better
take advantage of it in time, and have
their lands appraised by the Commission
ers and patented, before the date above
given.
PENNSYLVANIA HOUSE, HARRIS-
BURG.
Visitors to the State Capitol from this
section would do well to put up with
VAUGHN, the princely landlord of the
"Pennsylvania House." They will find
excellent fare and every convenience and
comfort as well as cheap bills. Our old
friend, 'Squire HEDGE, makes this House
his home, and will "play the agreeable"
to Greene county visitors. See advertise
ment in another column.
DOW N WARD STEPS TO DESPOTISM
The New York World concluees an ar
ticle on this subject as follows :
"It is usual to say that a bold bad man
usurps power; but such is not the truth.
Every people has precisely the institutions
it deserves, and, to judge from the Phila
delphia Press and the New York Times,
the institutions of Austria are more con
genial to many than the liberty which
has been our fond boast. That in the
heat of debate a man should sometimes
say or do A foolish thing must be expect
ed, and may be excused ; but that a news
psper, edited by a man of position and
ability, and circulated among intelligent
men, should view not only without hor
ror, but with satisfaction, the arrest and
deportation of a man for an expression of
opinion at a public meeting.is the strong
est evidence of the decay of that public
virtue and that spirit of liberty without
which Democracy is a dream."
WON'T FIGHT
One of the New England exchanges
says:—
"In Connecticut, the enrolling officers
encounter more difficulty among the col
ored peop;e
,than they do with the white
population. They are stubborn, and in
many instances pugnacious. In one case,
where an officer had called upon a color
ed lady, to get the name of her husband,
she bluntly refused to give it, and attack
ed the official with a broomstick, saying,
'There's no use a tryin', you can't make
a Boger out of a nigger, anyhow.' "
If this negro had listened to one of the
eloquent addresses of Governor Andrew, of
Massachusetts, she might have had a
higher appreciation of her race.
FAYETTE.

WENSELL PRILLIPS.
Wendell Phillips attys.:—
"Cromwell .never succeeded until tb •
Long Parliament - sloughed off every man
thlt believed in the House of Lords, and
left nothing but Democrats behind. We
shall never succeed until we slough or
everything that believes in the past, and
bring to the front everything that believes
that there is but one purpose—that is, to
save that Union on the basis of liberty."
[Cheers.]
To this he added the prayer that we
might have defeat and disaster till Aboli
tion Generals and an Abolition policy led
the soldiers and guided the war.
"God grant us so many reverses that the
Government may learn its duty ; God grant
us that the war may never end till it leaves
us on the solid granite of impartial liber
ty and justice." [Cheers.]
We don't know whether Phillips is the
greater fanatic or knave. Here is a pray
er that our sons and brothers may be
slaughtered in battle until Abolition Gen

tiOn
HOW TO PUT DOWN REBELLION.
The New York Evening Post, a lead
ing Administration paper, has an article
in its issue of the 23d on this point. It
says :
To capture Richmond, or any other
place in the South, will not put an end to
the rebellion ; to try political offenders
by military courts will not put down the
rebellion ; to arrest women for flapping
their crinolines at the star-spangled ban
ner will not put down the rebellion ; but
to so mass our armies and so plan our
summer campaign as to defeat, and rout,
and destroy the rebel armies—that will
put an end not only to the rebellion, but
to all the mischievous and silly manifesta
tions of sympathy with it which appear in
the free Sates.
Rte' The stirring up of bad blood in the
North by Abolition editors and office
holders can result in no good, either to the
Union or to the community. These polit
cal fanatics and disturbers should be dis
countenanced by every citizen who Las
the peace and order of the community at
heart.
Siir The New York Independent says :
"Generals do not thrive under the Jrip of
the Capitol. At thirty-six hours' ride
from Washington, armies and Generals
succeed. At twenty hours' they just hold
their own ; but within Rix hours'. taey are
as dead as a field of wheat under the shad
ow of the upas-trees."
Two Suggestions
The editor of the Buffalo Express sug
gests that the Administration arrest Gov.
Seymour. We suggest that when Abra
ham the First undertakes the job, he
commissions the editor of the Express to
do it. As the "inventor" of the idea, he
is entitled to have his name first on the
list of "killed, wounded and mining."

There is no doubt it is one of the best
Machines in use, and it is certainly one of
the cheapest.
Sir The Boston al uricr says that some
body once said to Erskine: "Erskine, you
are afraid of Pitt, and that's the flabby
part of your character." Erskine (re
marks the Courier) was never half so much
afraid of Pitt as the Republican party is
of Mr. Phillips, and that's the flabby part
of their character. He plucks them by
the beard, tweaks them by the nose, spurns
them with his foot, spits upon them, and
they bear it with a meekness which is
more than Christian,
War of the Leagues.
The Republican "Leagues" are already
quarrelling. There are two sets of these
organisations—the "Loyal Leagues" and
the "Union Leagues ;" the one going for
Seward and the other for Chase. There
is great rivalry and bitterness between
theta, and it is to be hoped that the fight
will result as did that - between the fatuous
Kilkenny cats.

Brigadier General Milo S. Hascall, a
petty military despot in Indiana, having
gone too far in his arbitrary measures,
even for Stanton, has been relieved of his
command.

VALL4IIDIGILedi.
The Chattanooga Rebel, of. May 27th,

says :

A dispatch from Cincinnati, Chin, dated

Vallandigham is as good as nominated.—
Some would like McClellan, but it is pretty
certain he would decline the nomination,—
Vallandigham wants it, and his friends are de

him in the rural districts is overwhelming. It
is rumored that President Lincoln has sent for
Valiandigham, probably to have an interview

HUBBARD LIGHT MOWER.
TN again presenting to the public this superior
blow
er, we refer with pleasure and pride to its unparal
leled sneerer during the season of 1862; a success we
have not seen equalled during many years experience
in manufacturing Agriculture' Implement'. Upon its
first introduction to tee public, it at ones took posi
tion among the very best machines of its class. Dur
ing the four years of its existence it has gained steadi
ly and rapidly in public favor, and we believe that, to
day, no Agricultural implement of any class enjoys so
high ar eputation as the HUBBARD LICHT MOWER.
It enters upon its fifth year with all the eclat of Its
previous unrivalled success, and under the most favor
ble auspices. With most manumeturers. the close ap
proximation to perfection obtained by the Machine in
1862, would have been sufficiently . satisfactory, and
they would have been contented to have made all fu
ture Machines precisely like them. indeed, we have
received hundreds of letters from purchasers of the Ma
chine that express the Idea that "the perfection of
Mowing Machinery is reached in the LITTLE HUE
BARD. It cannot be improved." But believing in
progress, and seeing where improvements could be
addea that would make what before worked well, now
work still Letter, we decided to add them—although
they considerably increase the expense of manufactur
ing the Machine—and can now confidently say that
THE HUBBARD LIGHT MOWER FOR 1683 HAS

The undersigned would state for the information of
those interested, that we have seen the "Hubbard
Light Mower" at work, and we are free to state that
in our opinion it is equal, if not superior to any Mow
ing Machine we have yet seen. It is of very light
draft., fully balanced, leaving no weight on the horses'
neck, and dues its work well, even with a very slow
motion of the team. TH W. OS. P. POLLOCK.

"Pas Mite of Vicksburg awkike
The advisee from Vicksburg are to June 2d,
..and show that the siege is
.progressing favor
ably. Our, siege, guns are dose up to the erte
my's works, and playing vigorously on them
and the town. thi the tett the. rebels shot six
hujidred horses on the river bank, being unable
to feed them.
The fight at Port Hsuleen ia..fai.rly started.—
All that is known worthy . of credence, is that
the fight is a severe one. Brig. Gen. Sherman
is badly wounded in the leg above the knee,
t,nd was brought to the city. It is hoped his
leg may I,e saved. Col. Payne and Brig. Gen.
Rickerson is reported Rumor says our
loss in killed and wounded is nearly 3,000.
At one o'clock p. m. on Wednesday the bat
tle commenced. The line,s °attended a distance
of four miles in front of the enerity.'s works.—
The command of the extfeme right was given
to Gen. Wetzel. The !loci position was held
by Gen. Grover, the third position by Gen.
Augur, and the left was given to Gen. Sher
man.
On the left the 165th New Yorn,,Lieut.
Ableamith, was ordered to discharge their, •
kets and chnree upon the enemy. Gen. Sher
man intended to carry a. section of the fortifi
cations at the point.of the bayonet. The Sec
ond Duryea Zouaves and the 177th Now-York
made a desperateonset and, were.zuet Ify a rain
storm of bullets. Lieut. Cot. Smith, of, the for
mer regiment, was severely wounded, and find
ing it impossible to eaccesafally acoomplish
the daring purpose, a retreat was effected.
Col. Cowles, of the 128th New York, while
charging with his men, Was killed. Gen. Dow
was slightly wounded, and Gen. Sherman ral
lied and took charge of Dow's brigade, when
he received a compound fracture of the right
leg from a grapeshot. His conduct is highly
applauded.
The struggle lasted until five o'clocl p. m.,
when a general order was dispatched along the
lines to retreat to the original position occu
pied at the commencment of the action. Gen.
Wetzel is reported to have taken two batteries.
Our loss is heavy—at least 4,000. I am in
fcrmed the rebels could hot have had over 10,-
000 men. The fight was doubtless renewed
at daybreak the next morning.
The most perfect confidence was felt that the
rebels would succumb to the Union forces.—
Eight regiments are ordered to report to Banks
at Port Hudson.
The Federal Situation at Vicksburg I
Rebel Loss Heavy on May 22d I
The Women and Children Leaving the City
CINCINNATI, June 3,—The Gazette's
Cairo special learns from an officer
just from - Vicksburg that the base
of the Federal lines extends from
the right to the left on the Mississip
pi, and from the Yazoo to the lower
part of Vicksburg, over six miles.—
In the rear our lines come up to tho
rebel lines, east of the town. We
hold undisputed possession of every
thing between Big Black Bridge,
and sixty feet of the hills in the rear
of the rebel army. Grant has cap
tured over fifty pieces of field artil
lery since the fight at Port Gibson.
l'rearairer
At last accounts General Frank.
Blair's Division had started for Big
Black Bridge. Destination unknown.
it is believed that the gunboat Cin
cinnati can be raised. The casual
ties are not over fifteen. Deserters
report the rebel losses exceedingly
heavy on the 22nd. The cessation
of bostilitos on the 21st was for the
purpose of lettin t , o. the women and
children leave the city.
- - - -
A dispatch from Somerset, Ky., on
the 2nd, says that twenty refugees
come in that morning from East
Tennessee. There are but few rebel
troops in Knoxville, but many had
passed through recently going west.
The rebel pickets on the Cumber
land have resumed their old position.
The Fight on the Bayou Sara
—Port Hudson Invested.
NEW YORK, May 3.—The steamer
George Cromwell arrived from New
Orleans at 3 o'clock this morning.—
Seventy-five prisoners arrived at
New Orleans on the 25 from Baton
Rouge„among whom is ex-Governor
Wickliffe, who wus captured near
Port Hudson.
The fight on the Bayou Sara road
and near Port Hudson, on the 21st,
was hotly contested, hut the rebels
were badly whipped at every point,
A bayonet charge of the 116th New
York was the final affair of the day
The 116th New York lost thirteen
killed and forty-four - Nounded. The
2d Louisiana had three killed and
eleven wounded. The 30th Massa
chusetts had five wounded.
The New Orleans Era of the 27th
contains the following:—Gen. Banks
moved down the Red River with his
army and crossed to Bayou Sara.
and thence to Port Hudson, where
he united his forces with those of
Gen. Augur. The gunboats jthder
Farragut were to move upon the
24th. The mortar fleet opened on
Port Hudson on the night of the
24th, silencing several of the enemy's
guns. Port Hudson is now, there
fore, closely besieged and hemmed
in, and the fall of this stronghold
will be speedy, even should General
Banks not order an assault on the
works.
Col. Grierson is co-operating with
Gen. Banks. A reported rebel iron
clad raid from Mobile and the cap
ture of two of our shipsof war proves
to be a canard. The garrison at
Port Hudson is estimated at 10,000
men. They are scantiiy supplied
with provisions.
Battle in Rear of Port Hudson!
Rebels Completely Whipped I I
Rebel Killed and Wounded Left Behind !
NKW YORK, June 2d. —The steam
er Creole, from New Orleans with
dates to the 29th ult., arrived this
morning. A dispatch in the Era of
the 29th ult, dated at Port Hudson
Plains on the 22d, says : "General
Augur's whole division was engaged
in a nine hours' fight on Port Hud
son Plains, in the rear ot Port Hud
son, on the Bayou Sara road. The
rebels were thoroughly whipped, and
left a largo number of killed and
wounded on the field. The rebel
General Gardner sent in a flag of
truce at midnight, asking permission
to bury the dead. We took one
hundred prisoners, and the enemy
was driven three miles from his first
position, and General Augur bivou
acked VW the field of battle Our
loss was twelve killed, and fifty-six
wounded. The 116th New York
and 2nd Louisiana suffered the
most. Oar wen fouglit' with great
bravery."
