TO OUR PATRONS.
AN EARNEST WORD.
We will present our paper to its
readers in a new dress in a week or
two. The materials are now on the
way. To effect this improvement we
have incurred considerable expense,
and we rely on our patrons to make
the outlay good to us. We sent out
accounts several weeks ago to all
our subscribers in arrears, but not
one in ten has resoond.ed to our eall.
Those who have done so have our
t-ineere thanks. The country is
flooded with greenbacks, and nobody
can corpplain of scareity of money.
Wil•1 not our patrons, then, who
have afforded us no help, at once
settle their accounts ? Paper has
again advanced, and everything else
is high, and it is out of the question
for us to "make ends meet" if our
frieifds neglect us. We trust they
will not longer do so
The 'Union League.
This secret and dangerous organi•
=Lion .ol Abolition Disunion con
spirators exists in Greene county. -1
The Charter of League No. 2 has .
just been received at this place, and
authorizes a certain leading Repub
lican and the other chosen officers of
it to exercise "all and singular" the
powers and privileges of the "insti
tution." The immediate sphere of
the League will Im Waynesburg
and its vicinity, but it will doubtless
extend its operations all over the,
county. Every Democrat who
comes to town during the next
twelvemonth may expect to be
"buttonholed," and coaxed, and
"bullied" into joining it. Of course!
no Democrat of any principle will
yield to the entreaties or seductions;
of these "Leaguers." Their wholes
aim is to bolster up Abolitionism and
perpetuate its ruinous sway. We
admonish our Democratic friends to
beware of this sneaking, midnight
organization. As you love your
country, KEEP OUT 01' ITS MESHES.-
1414 e all similar Jacobinical associa
tions, its day will be brief, and
those who identify themselves with
it will vainly, but heartily regret it,
Be wise, and have nothing to do
with it. It is a most proscriptive
and intolerant organization, and its
members aro pledged, it is said, not
to deal with Democrats, or maintain
social intercourse with them ; but to
persecute and hunt down all who
will not subscribe to the foul dogmas
of Abolitionism and endorse the
entire policy of the Administration.
GO IT WITH A RUSH.
In view of their late success, it is ex
pected the radicals in Congress this .
v. inter, if they have a majority, will "go
it with a rush" on their suicidal notions
and policy. War, lasting, wasting and
interminable, for Southern subjugation
will be insisted on unless and until the
Rebel States abolish slavery. The new'
doctrine of State suicide, obliteration of
State lines, State annihilation, will be ex-1
pounded and passed upon and carried
through, unless slavery can be 'knocked in i
t h e bead' in some easier, cheaper or quicker
way. That is the sole aim of the Aboli
tionists, as will fully appear from their!
sayings and doings the approaohing Ses
sion. Our readers have only to wait and
watch, to see the verification of this as_
bertion or prediction.

beast of their late victories. The same
means could:have secured majorities ten
Uteil as great.
A LIAR CONVICTED.
The "Greene County Republican" charges
us with opposing Volunteering. In making
this charge, the Editor of that paper lies and
knows he lies, and most of kis readers and all
of ours know he lies, wickedly and impudent
ly. In the identical No. of the Messenger con
taining the article .he garbles and distorts so
disgracefully and villainously, appeared the
following editorial on the subject of Volunteer
ing, which of itself brands the unscrupulous
scribbler as a bold and unblushing falsifier.—
Read for yourselves:—
VOLUNTEERING.
We sincerely hope an earnest ef.
fort will be made by man of all
parties in this county to fill up our
quota, under the pesent, call for
troops, by volunteering. It is much
to be prefered to drafting, and should
be generally adopted. All who en
list will receive the following sums
as allowance, pay, premium and
bounty, viz :
To every recruit who is a veteran
volunteer, as defined in the General
Orders of the War Departme of of
June 25, 1863, No. 191. for recruit
ing veteran volunteers,' one month's
pay in advance, and a. bounty and
premium amounting to $402. To all
other recruits, not veterans, accept
ed and enlisted as required in exist
ing Orders, one month's pay in ad
vance, and in addition a bounty and
premium amounting to $302.
Any further information desired
can be obtained from the Provost
Marshals of the respective districts.
But more yet- To further expose the unut
terable and degraded meanness of this creature
Evans, we make the following extract from his
comments on our article, Ile says:—
"To show with what intense ha
tred that sheet (the Messenger) re
gards the soldiers, it is only neces
sary to quote a single passage :
"In our view, it is the, plain duty
of the Administration at once to
give the country an assurance that
at no future election soldiers will be
permitted to leave their regiments
for voting purposes."
This is the plain unvarnished lan
guage of the Waynesburg Messen
ger. There is no mistaking its pur
port. It would disfranchise the sol
diers absolutely."
Now, to show how basely the "Republican"
has garbled our article, and perverted and mis
' represented our meaning, we reproduce below
just what we did say, printing in CAPITALS
that material portion of the extract which
Evans suppreasedr—
"In our view, it is the plain duty
of tha Administration at once to give
the country an assurance that at no
futuro vleetion will soldiers be per
mitted to leave their regiments for
voting purposes : OR THAT, IF
ANY ARE ALLOWED TOGO, NO
SELJEOTION SHALL BE MADE
OF FRIENDS OF THE ADMINIS
TRATION, BUT THAT ALL
SHALL BE TREATED ALIKE."
Blackstone, if our memory serves us, defiant,
Forgery to be, "4.4 . e fraudulent =icing or alter
ing a paper to the prejudice of another." 11, by
the above, we dunot convict our "neighbor"
of forgery, lailt's falsehood, we convict him
of a crime iQ nature and equal in enor
mity. --
In saying, with his usual recklessness and
effrontery, that we (the Editors of the Messen
ger,) "regard the soldiers with intense hatred,"
this fellow Evans lies in his throat, and knows
he lies. And in saying we "would disfranchise
the soldiers absolutely," he is guilty of an
equally atrocious falsehood, and knows it We
are in favor of allowing them all to vote,
through law and under the Constitution of the
State, and we sincerely regret they were not
ALL at home to exercise their undoubted right
at the late election, (and not merely a portion of
them,) as the result would, we are persuaded,
have been very different in the,Commonwealth
and county. But, no ma too:ow this might
have seep, we wanted thselfilits vote, for we
know no class of men who have sacrificed or
suffered
,wore in defence of the country and for
the preservat,ion of the privileges and franchi
ses of freemen. At thiseame time, we are op
posed to furloughing large bodies of Republi k -an
soldiers, and only here and there a Democrat,
;and he only to keep up appearances,) for the
purpose of foisting rulers on the psople at
home they do not want and would iatigaantly
reject if left to decide fur and among themselyes.
That ' game" may suit Corporal Evans and
his co-workers in political iniquity, but it don't
suit the honest and straightforward masses.—
Such means of perpetuating their rule are the
last resort of desperate Abiaiiien demagogues
who see the handwriting on file wal' and feel
Ithe reins of poworslippiewthrougla their fin
gers.
The object of the" Republican's" article is
manifest, and 41 . as : disgraceful as it is palpable.
It is intended to excite prejudice against the
Messenger and its Editors among our gallant
lads in the army: but we will see to it that the
antidote goes with the poison. This expose of
our "neighbor's" infamous falsehoods shall be
scattered as broadcast among our brave boys as
his calumnies. His course in this matter is in
perfect keeping with his often open, but gener
ally sneaking and insidious attempts, during
the past few months, to incite returned volun
teers and others of his partizans to violence and
outrage on the persons mad property of Demo
crats. His physiognomy proves him to he a
contemptible sneak, and his course toward his
opponents sboays that his heart is full of devil
ish malignity.
We are ft.** to confess we have more respect
for a dog, and a very dirty dog at that, than for
the wretched caricature on manhood who would
descend to such bold, b /Niemand garb!in •
and misrepresentation, aloft& ,ineffitbllt •:• -,

in this article, to gratify htffigewoona/ a , 'f

bor's shameful conduct ittOis . matter, *W.
other we could make, would brings corslitue
tion to his conscience, or a blush to bis cheek
or his forehead. The former is seared, anilkita
latter are of brass.
The Democratic Press.
The spirit of the Democratic press
throughout the State is excellent. W.
never knew it better after a defeat ; and
this inspires us with confidence that the
coming campaign will be conducted wit
energy and courage worthy of success.—
In every Democratic paper we open the
conviction is expressed that, the State is
to-day Democratic to the core, and the
note of preparation for another and fier
cer contest tw behalf Of the Constitution,
Liberty sad Union is minded.
THE "GREENE 001INTY RIPIIBLI
oAr, AND ITS EDITOR.
We rarely notice any thing that appears in
the editorial columns of the "Greene County
Remit/lean," and we seldom read it and never
ought to, and for the good and sufficient reason
that it rarely prints the truth but by accident.
Its political articles are tissues of absurdities
and falsehoods, which are patent to
every man in the county who has the
small modicum of common sense dr the
slightest degree of acquaintance with the poli
tics of the country. It scruples at nothing in
its efforts to serve its party, and indulges in
the grossest, most ridiculous and stupidly non
sensical misrepresentation of the Democratic
party, and presumes more largely on the ignor
ance and credulity of its readers and of the peo
ple than any public journal we have ever met.
It never alludes to its political op onents with
out stigmatizing them as "Copperheads," "Se
cessionists," "Traitors" or "Rebel sympathi
zers," and never yet, since we have known it,
aspired to the dignity of an argument on any
subject of political concern. Its leaders are a
rehash, from week to week, of the same stale
twattle, and prosy, senseleis jargon and bom
bast, and ugly epithets. We never take one of
them but as a soporific, and for this purpose
they act like a charm, putting a body to sleep
in no time, and beating any thing in the
materia medico all hollow. When the Editor
undertakes any thing of a personal character,
he almost invariably displays the coarsest vul
garity and malignity, making up in vitupera
tion and billingsgate what he lacks in mother
wit and in polished, but pungent satire. Hold
ing to the Jesuitical maxim, "Calumniate, ca
lumniate—something will stick," he is as fruit
ful of slanders as a herring ie of spawn, and
the bigger the lie. the better it suits him, and
the more fie persists in it. A sneering misan
thrope, as embittered at the world as the world
is indifferent about him, it is next to impossi
ble to extort from him a word of praise
of any thing or any body. It is as much
his habit to malign as it Is that of the 'I
swine to wallow in the mire; and when there
is nobody to defame, his "occupation," like
Othello's, will be "gone." Without refine
ment of feeling, or dignity, or self-respect, and
ignorant or regardless of the proprieties and
decencies of his editorial position, all sense of
the becoming seems to have been obliterated
from his mind; and for no other cause than
mere difference of political views and associa
tions, he has, since his return from the army,
done little else than shower torrents of scur
rility and frantic abuse on "every age, sex and
condition." The dialect of the fish-market is
as familiar to him as the Lord's prayer and
the lesser Catechism ought to be, and his zeal
for his party and his hate of his fellows expend
themselves alike in execration and invective
What has thus soured the poor devil, curdling
"the milk of human kindness" in his heart.
we are left to conjecture. Perhaps the bad tu
telage he has had, or his associations, and the
bad examples before and about him; perhaps
his celibacy; perhaps his Army disappoiiit
ments, or perhaps his diet. But, whatever the
cause, the fact is indisputable that he is most
maliciously disposed toward all who do not
agree with him in his political heresies and va
garies, or who are too obtuse to see his fine
"points."
This being the character of the 'Republican'
and its eccentric and unfortunate Editor, (and
we are not mistaken about either,) our readers
will agree with us that we have done well to
take Little account of them. The occasional
flaggellatious we have given our neighbor have
been administered for his temporal and eternal
good, and in much of the same spirit in which
we would chastise a naughty and wayward boy,
and for the same identical purpose.. If we have
been unduly severe in oar corrections, we have
not aimed to be, for our bowels have been filled
with compassion and our eyes with tears, ol
more than one occasion, when applying the
needed rod. Besides, we have great charity for
the stripling, and have never, until recently
regarded him as incorrigibly bad in any thing
but lying, the meanest of vices and the most
unmanly. But of this, as a partizan, wedo not
complain, as it is certain, ultimate/y, to
strengthen the Democratic cause; nor do we
complain of it as an individual, for it always
reacts; but we deplore and denounce it because
it degrades public journalism and demoralizes
the public mind. Shame on the re,% - eant to the
grave duties and respons bilities of his profes
sion who will thus disgrace it, who barters
away TRUTH in the vain hope of serving Party,
and sports with FALSEHOOD as though it were
a rightful weapon of political controversy.—
Erring and deluded, he cannot long retain eith•
'er character or influence. He should be com
miserated, however, as much as he is detested.
Our readers will now understand why we
have been and are likely t. be so economical of
time and space in our allusions to the "Repub.
lieati" and its contents, or to its Editor. We
know he is ambitious of our notice, and feels
dignified by it, strutting over the cuffings we
give him like a vanquished but boasting bully
over a black eye, bloody nose and braken ribs.
At the same time we do not see fit to gratify
his vanity any oftener than suits our pleasure
and convenience. He may dog our editorial
steps as he has heretofore, and until be wearies
of his eternal trotting.; but he cannot 4 1hore
than provoke us to turn on him, now and then,
with an emphatic kick or two, precisely as we
would serve a noisy, yet harmless cur, barking
or nibbling at our heels.
THEIR PATRON SAINT.
John Brown, convicted and executed for
sedition and murder, is the patron saint
of the Abolition fanatics now ruling and
ruining the country. Forney, in a late
harangue, asked a Band ini attendance to
•
play** tune to the doggerel about John's
"scitlf *lambing on," and styled him a

0178, BABY.
In the crad:e here by me,
Something fair reposes,
Whiter than the lillies be,
Sweeter than the roses.
On the pillow soft is laid
Something young and tender,
Stainless brow and shining head,
Fingers white and slender.
L'ds like snow-flakes drooped above,
Eyes like summer blossoms,
Lips a rose bud, made for love,
Dimpled cheek and bosom.
Fairest flower from forest dell,
Dearer tOr their fleetness,
Waxen bud and lily bell,
Best befit his sweetness.
Much we wonder, when he sleeps,
What his eyes are seeing,
Knowing well that angels keep
Watch about his being.
For a moment round his eyes
Radiant smiles are beaming,
Then he starts with grievous cries,
Is-the baby dreaming ?
Gentle Shepherd! who dolt hold
In thy tender keeping
All the lambs within thy fold,
Waking or in sleeping,
We are weak who hold the child
In our fond caressing ;
Grant to crown our undefiled,
With thy choicest blessing.

no difference, we're a modest sort of body
and can only refer the inquiring to his

at the late election in this county seem to
be having quite a "gay arid festive time"
of it.
THE TWO POLICIES.
There are "tw•o policies;" and the Al
bany Argus thus, very correctly describes
them :
1. The Republican Policy—to hold out
to the rebels no inducements to return to
the Union—no hope of pardon or restora
tion to citizenship—nothing but confisca
tion, extinction of their States as political
communities, and division of their soil
among emancipated slaves—nothing in a
word but black eespair. This is the Re
publican palmy.
2. Conservative Policy—to meet the re
bellion with a strong military arm, and
with the distinct and firm assurance that
no star shall be plucked from the flag of
the Union—but at the same time to hold
wide open the door for the return of the
rebel States to their constitutional posi
tion and their former status in the Union,
whenever they will lay down their arms
and renew their allegiance. This is the
Democratic and Conservative policy.
THE DIEEERENOE
In his admirable speech at Rochester,
Gov. Seymour thus tersely indicated the
purposes of the two parties. As was
said of Sir John Copley, his statement is
as good as another man's argument:
"We propose," lie said, "to wage
this war for a purpose upon which
the whole North is united—for a
purpose which will draw to our
standard hundreds and thousands of
hearts in the South, which yet beat
with love for our old banner and
our old Constitution. (Cheors.)—
They propose that we shall carry
on the war for purposes that wo at
the North cannot unanimously con
sent to; they propose not to put
down revolution, but to make revo
lution; they propose to offer no
inducement fur rebels to submit to
the laws, but they say to us and to
them that we shall no longer have
guaranty of the constitution for the
preservation of our liberties here
after as they have been preserved
before."
The Conscription Act Unconsti-
tutional
In the case of the application of Knee
der, Smith and Nichols, soldiers con- 1
scripted in Philadelphia, for injunctionsl
to restrain government officers from send•
ing them into the military service, the
Supreme Court delivered an opinion at
Pittsburg ou Monday, pronouncing the
law to be unconstitutional, and granted an
injunction in each case for the protection
of the plaintiff, on his giving bund, with
surety to be approved by the protbono•
Lary, in the sum of $5OO. Chief Justice
Lowrie and Justices Woodward and
Thompson each delivered an opinion, pro
nouncing the law unconstitutional. Jus
tices Strong and Reed gave dissenting
opinions.
This is a very important decision and
a very just one, and will be sustained by
the best legal ability of the country.—Pa.
trios and Union.

of the citizens of this county who are in
favor of raising our quota of troops, un

It is certainly the interest of the people
to avoid a Draft, and we trust an earnest
