THE AGITATOR. M. H. COBB, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR. , WEUSBOBOUGH, PENN’A: WEDNESDAY, : APRIL 13, 1864. The presence of mineral deposits ie commonly learned of by the outcrop. The feasibleness of their devclopement, as well as the extent and value of the deposit,-is learned by consulting tho topography of the country and the angle and direction of dip, or inclination. So, in the common affairs of life, that which has not emerged into certainty, is estimated by what crops out here and there, and its tendency as related to what is generally known. Now it was charged upon the Copperhead party, long ago, that its chiefs were working in the interest of Jeff. Davis. The indications were'unmistakable. Rut when the great raid of Lee into Pennsylvania, and the great riot in New York,..oame, like a thunder-clap, together, Here was anoutcrop which very nearly reduced the charge of complicity to patent fact. Few observing, unprejudiced men, doubted that Fer nando Wood and Jeff. Davis were acting in con cert, after that. Even in Tioga county the min nows of Copperheadism took heart at the bloody news, and began to talk about the possibility of resisting the draft. Probably the minnows were not in the full confidence of the whales, hot they scented the approach of Lee, and very foolishly and mysteriously hinted at some great event ns about to happen. When the crash came, they were the least astonished of all, of course. Had the outcrop ended there, the case would have been still open to chaffering, though scarcely to argument. But it was not so to end. Onlya Ihw days ago the public was electrified with the news of a rebel invasion of Kentucky, the burnip gof Paducah, and the uprising of the home traitors of Coles and Edgar counties in Illinois. All these events came together— or so nearly together as to convey but one im pression—that of concert of action. Hardly a man of candor can doubfthat the O’Hairs of Illinois were'knowing|to the proposed rebel ad vance into Kentucky. They brought their forces into town, with wagons concealing guns and ammunition. They provoked a quarrel with, some returned soldiers, and with a bare pretext for violence made war upon an unarmed crowd. Their rebel coadjutors were then preparing to sack the city of Paducah, after having deman ded its surrender, with a threat to grant no quarter if the demand was not complied with. Putting the roost favorable construction upon it, the coincidence is marked and significant. The spirit which eventuated in the great New York riot, the Lehigh county disturbances, and the Illinois massacre, is identical with that which eventuated in this great rebellion in 1800. It is a spirit of reckless barbarism; its promo ters" and directors are preparing to fill infamous graves. Once convince the loyal masses of the ’ North that Copperheadism only waits to strike a blow at home for the cause of Jeff. Davis, and that moment Copperheadism will begin its death struggle. Many of the lesser lights of the fac tion do not comprehend the nature of the op position to which they are bound, Probably these would shrink from violence that which has clothed two counties in mourning.— There is but one course for such men, and that is a prompt withdrawal from bad company. EDITOBIAX. COKEESEONDENOE Right in front of the Vice President, on what ' f - i used, to be the democratic side of the Senate chamber, sits a man who ranks among the best | talkers in the Senate. Of "English build, high/ 1 square head, thinly covered with white hair, a ! bold; handsome forehead, an eye (literally) al-, ways beaching with a mingled expression of at tention, occupation, - listening, and surprise ; a face,oval, though rather heavy, and a jaw of iron. That is Reverdy Johnson—one of the readiest of lawyers—in fact, too much of a law yer—a good debater, now one of the Senators ■from Maryland. He is one of the most fluent as well ae courteous of Senators, and is tho roughly loyal, though somewhat crochetty. Ho i) the ablest man Maryland has sent to repre sent her in. the Senate for half a century. SeL dom idle, on good terms with all, he watches the debates as few others do, and not seldom inter poses to smooth down the asperities of a kin dling controversy. He is always making notes when not otherwise engaged actively, though of what use they can be after they arc made, no one familiar with his handwriting can tell, lam sure. He is, positively, the most outrageous of pensmen, his writing resembling the imprint of a bunch of candle-snuff “promiscuously” strewn over the paper and rubbed in with the fingers. A little to the rear, and to the right, sits a man who has figured somewhat conspicuously in the history of the country for tea years past. He is one of thtf “ lean, lank, restless looking” men who figure in illustrated books as tern men." The head is very good, the brows somewhat heavy, and Contracted in a perpetual frown ; the eyes sharp; but not expressing ha bits of profound thought and feeling; the lower face angular and harsh. That is James H. Lane—“ Jim Lane," of Kansas. He is a ready talker, but not distinguished as a debater. At the left of James H. Lane sits a Senator who is serving a first term. Spare, tall, a little stoop-shouldered, blue black hair, dark eyes, a pointed nose, and somewhat wide mouth—wide for the width of the face; forehead of mode rate height and breadth; a face wearing an expression of intellectuality of a high order evidently’ a student, and seldom idle; who al ways listens respectfully, and seldom opens bis lips. This man is Charles R. Buckalew, one of onr Senators, and likewise one of the shrewd est, most pains-taking men in the Senate. He COINOIDENOEB, ■Washington, April 2, 1864. THE TIOGA COUNTY AGITATOE. has not spoken at all ns yet. 'He votes wrong every time, as might bo expected. Bat he is too shrewd to commit himself in words at pres ent. There is nothing publicly pretensioos about Mr; Buckalew. He is quiet, reserved, cosmopolitan, end laborious. Sometimes yon may see him sitting by Charles Sumner, in ear nest conversation about books, I reckon, as both usually have books! in their hands. Oftener he is at work at his desk, and looking out from the corner of his sharp eyes at some one on the floor. One singular habit of his is, that be ne ver looks out either above or below tbe eye level. This shows him to be se6retive to tbe perfect degree. He will keep his own counsel. You at ones feel that Mr. Buckalew has cultivated bis head to the irreparable damage of bis heart. M. H. C. ELECTIONS. Connecticut. —Keturns of the Connecticut election, held on the 4th! instant, have been re ceived from every town,! in the State. Buck ingham, the Union candidate for Governor, is re-elected by about 5,412 majority. The Leg islature is strongly Union. The Senate stands 18 to 3, and the House 160 to 75. This will secure tbe passage, ip that State, of tbe consti tutional amendment allowing soldiers to vote, which is said to haVe been one of the chief is sues presented to the people. The Hartford Courant says : “ The patriotism of Connecticut was never more ardent, nor her determination to crush the rebellion more inexorable than now. Public sen timent on the subject is daily gathering strength and volume. Unless unforeseen events of the most extraordinary character should arise, the State will next November give the Union nom inee for the Presidency not less than ten thou sand majority. Our absent soldiers will vote os a unit, because their loyalty will tolerate no sympathy with traitors in the rear. Tbe signs of the times are most auspicious.” I Maryland,— An election was held in Mary land on tbe 6th instant to decide whether there should be a convention held, Biiltimore gave 9,021 for a convention and 79 against. The un conditional anti-compensation ticket got the en tire vote cast. The seventh district gave I9G majority for the convention and unconditional emancipation. I. The Cumberland district gave 470 majority for unconditional emancipation. The Frederick district gave the, emancipation ticket 480 majority. The fith district gave 'SOS majority for the convention and emancipation. The ninth district gave 14 majority against a convention. The convention is doubtless called by a large majority. * Rhode Island. —This State held her election on the 6th. Returns from nearly the whole State, intimate that James Y. Smith, Union, is re-elected Governor, by a small [majority over George H. Brown, Democrat, and Amos C. Bar stow, independent Union. The Legislature will be strongly Union. ' New Jersey.—The Soldiers not Allowed to Vote. —Trenton, April 6. —The bill allow ing the New Jersey soldiers to vote, was dis cussed to day in the Assembly, and defeated by a strict party vote, the democrats opposing it. The veteran soldiers now home are much excited. WAR NEWS. There is significance in the general order just issued by Gen. Grant, from the headquarters of the Army of the Potomac. It difeots that pub lic and private property, for which .transporta tion is not furnished by existing orders, shall be at once sent to the rear; that all sutlers and private citizens shall leave the army by the 10th instant; that only members of the Sanitary or Christian Commissions and registered newspa per correspondents can remain. All furloughs and leaves of absence are stopped, and all offi cers and men doing duty in other, corps than their own, are ordered to return to their regi ments. Gen. Grant visited the extreme front of the lines on Friday. He made a close ob servation of the regiments and brigades as he passed along, expressing himself highly grati fied with their condition. He also made a csre ,ful reconnoisnnce of the enemy's defensive works on the Rapidhn. Heavy tain was falling 1 all day Saturday, and the roads continue in a very bad condition. By an arrival from New Orleans, !we learn that the election for members of a i Constitu tional Convention, resulted in a complete tri umph for the Free Stale party. Later news from .the Red river expedition is received. On the 28th of March Gen. -Smith’s forces had a fight with the Rebel General Dick Taylor's army, 12,000 strong' on Cane river 27 miles above Alexandria, in which the Rebels were defeated, ■ with a loss of 200 tilled and wounded, and 500 prisoners. j- Dispatchea from Vicksburg say that the Reb els attacked a plantation which is being worked by the Government, on the Yazoo river and destroyed hll- the Valuable buildings and ma chinery. The Ist Massachusetts (colored) cav alry, 600 strong, drove the Rebels off after an hour’s fight. The enemy numbered nearly fifteen hundred. Strength of the Union Forces.— A'Wash ington correspondent writes :—“ Soma ' well posted’ writers have just ascertained that the recent call Tor more men, was & sudden deter mination on the part of Mr. Lipcoln. This is a great mistake, indeed. The President doubt less determined early last fall to put one mil •lion of men into the field; and tbs estimates of the War Department were originally prepared for over that number. Acting Surgeon General Barnes estimated in October, XBG3, that provi sion should be made for medical and hospital supplies, for the fiscal year 1864-5, for one mil lion two hundred and thirty-nine thousand two hundred and seventy-three soldiers, which, at ten dollars each, made $14,882,730. This was reduced, and the military appropriation bill just passed by the,House provides for medical and hospital supplies for seven hundred and fifty-three thousand five hundred and sixty-four soldiers. When the quotas shall all’ have been filled, we shall doubtless have about that num ber in the field." ' The Results of Conperhcadism. We do riot see how any man, who has a spark of patriotism yet left to fire bis blood, can read tbe proceedings of the late Illinois rebellion, without at least admitting to himself, if be does not declare openly, that tbe men who initiated those proceedings are, in every sense of the word, traitors. Nor can we see how any truth ful man, whether he possesses that patriotic spark or not, can for one moment deny that those traitors received their inspiration from the teachings of tbe leaders of the Copperhead party. All accounts agree iu stating that tbe “ riot,” ns it is mildly termed in some quarters, was unprovoked and premeditated; that Union soldiers were shot down by these miscreants, merely because they wore the national uniform ; and that the sole purpose which actuated the “ rioters,” was defiance to tho civil and military authority of the government. They meant to assist the rebellion, by creating, as did the N. York rioters last summer, “ a fire in.the rear.” And there is a remarkable correlatioV between tbe circumstances which characterized the two riots. The New York riot was almost coinci dent, and was intended to be wholly so, with the advance of Lee into Pennsylvania;—the Coles county riot was commenced the very day Forrest was besieging Paducah, Kentucky.— Southern Illinois, in which Coles county is sit uated, is notoriously disloyal. Had Forrest taken Paducah and crossed into Illinois, there is every reason to believe that the Copperheads of all that region would have risen as did those of Coles county. They were only restrained from doing so because of Forrest’s defeat at Paducah. That the Illinois riot was produced entirely by Copperhead teachings, is not putting the fact quite strong enough. The purpose of the intense school of Copperheadism, is treason— and treason only. Time and again have prom inent lexers of that party shown their sympa thy with the rebels, by words and acts, the dis loyalty of which no sophistry could conceal; time and again have bands of their deluded fol lowers, with arms on their shoulders and blood on their hands, de6ed (he officers of the United States and attempted to nullify its laws. The organization of the Knights of the Golden Cir cle, is as thoroughly in sympathy with all the aims of the Southern Confederacy, as if every member of it were a South Carolinian. The government at Washington has not been severe enough with these domestic traitors.— Had it two years ago hung the first dozen of them wbo were found in arms against its au thority, we would not now be called upon to chronicle.the Illinois “riot.” We hope that every Copperhead engaged in that “ riot,” will be pursued until caught-; and when caught, made to suffer the fate which should be meted to all traitors. Half-way measures iwitb parri cides will suffice no longer. We must conquer them, or they will conquer us. They are as sisting to-day to prolong the'war, by encourag ing the South to believe that, sooner or later, the North will itself be a divided bouse. They mean that it sJiall be—and are now hard at work in every Northern ■ State endeavoring to obtain control of the- Democratic party, that they may lise'it next fall to secure the realiza tion of their treasonable hopes. Gentlemen of the Democratic party I you are not all Copperheads. God forbid! Wo know that some of you would die in tho “ deadly breach,” before the United States of America should cease to constitute one nation, ding this much tp your patriotism, will some of you explain, in a plain way, the reason why you should longer be found in company with proved traitors ?—Pittsburg Gaz. Funeral Procession or. Women. —Mr. Cra mer, of the Milwaukee Wisconsin, attended the funeral of Mrs. Beauregard, at New Or leans( in company with a of exten sive Southern sympathies, who pointed ont the notabilities. Mr. C. writes: When the coffin was placed on the magnifi cent-! funeral car, the procession was formed of women. It was a mile long—not a carriage was allowed, and the first ladies of New Or leans walked in the procession. My friend said they were the very elite of the city— dressed wilh elegance, but mostly in vestures of mourning. There were some gay dresses among the eleven-hundred women, who fol lowed the remains to the boat. There was scarcely a roan in the procession—there were many present, but they walked apart. I no ticed in the processio|i the British and French officers of the two war-ships in the stream. They were sandwiched among the women. To me it was an interesting sight to witness a procession composed of ladies only, and all of the best society. As my friend was known to be an intense rebel, I was considered the same, and so when I passed through the throng, I was, as it were, kindly greeted. I had thus a better opportunity to see the old residents of New-Orleana than if I had attended twenty parties or twenty operas. An Incredible Barbarity. —The chivalry of the South has exhibited a fresh proof of their boasted devotion to woman. Not content with giving her the precedence in the ball-room and by the fireside, they would have her take the advance on the battle-field also. These brave Southrons rally valoronsly behind a wo man’s skirts. A telegram from St. Louis in forms ns that, at the late fight at Paducah, they put their - helpless females forward at the bulwarki of defence against a storm of Federal ballets, and, with a sharpness which even a Yankee would not have prac ticed, availed themselves of a flag of truce to restore: their shattered lines. In Southern parlance this may be chivalrous, but the world will unite in pronouncing such atrocity fiend ish, and the annals of civilized warfare will be searched in vain for a paralell for so barba rous an outrage upon woman. We trust that, for the honor of humanity, the despatch will prove to be unfounded. . ’ The Richmond Whig very seriously, puts for ward the following propositions. .We may not it is true, be• able to send a raiding party to dash intoj Philadelphia or New York to do the work; nor have artillery that will carry Greek fire fat enough to reach them, but we have that which will penetrate what the mightiest artillery would make no impression on—we have money. A million of dollars would lay in ashes New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Pittsburg, Washington, and all.their chief tfitifcs, and the men to do the business may be picked up by the hundreds in tbe streets of those very cities. If it should be thought unsafe to use them, there are dar ing men in Canada, of Morgan’s and other commands, who have escaped from Yankee dungeofls, and who would rejoice at an oppor tunity of doing some! thing that would make all Yankeedom howl with anguish and conster nation. " Frank,” (by whom is meant our frjend and fellow-citizen, J. B. Niles, Esq.,) writes the Philadelphia Press; “An important bill has passed the House. I say important—it may not be considered such by the people generally. It is very well known that the northern tier of counties are isolated from the great-heart of the State. Tioga and Potter, in particular, have no direct connection with the interior of the State. They can only roach the capital by passing through a portion of- New York ; consequently all their commer cial interests are with the State of New York. Their coal and lumber, in a great measure, find a northern market, and their merchants buy their goods in New York, instead of Philadel phia. This state of affairs is not the choice of the,people of those counties. They would pre fer-to do their business with the people of their own State ; but, by force of circumstances, they are compelled to do otherwise. “ The bill to which I refer, proposes to run a railroad from Jersey Shore, (on the Philadel phia and Pine creek, to filanchester, in*Tioga county. It there branches off; one branch running up Marsh creek, down Crooked creek, to the State line, by tbe way of Tioga, and to connect with the New York and Erie at Corning. Tbe other branch continues up Pine creek, to the summit, crosses over to Couders port, and passes down the Alleghany, and com neots with the Erie railway at Salqmanoa. The recent bill only refers to the branch which con nects at Corning. The main bill passed several years since, and was revived at tbe last session. “ Senator Wilson, of Tioga, has introduced a bill in relation to the assumption by the State of the debt contracted by the different districts for the purpose of paying bounties to volun teers, which has been reported from, the com mittee with an affirmative recommendation. It provides that tbe State shall pay §3OO to every county, ward, or township, for each volunteer sent from each county, ward, or township, un derthe-call for 500,000, provided so much was paid by the respective districts for volunteers. This is a question upon which there may ho an honest difference of opinion. It is a question of great magnuude, and should, and undoubt edly will, receive due consideration. “ The State originally should have paid the bounties. The process would have been more simple, and the effect would have been more equal. A State bounty should have teen given to each volunteer from every sub-district until its quota was filled. It is not now too late to remedy this evil; and Senator Wilson's bill is demanded by the best interests of the country. The State can best manage a debt of this mag nitude; Besides, if assumed by the State, a large class of property can be reached for taxa tion which cannot be reached by the counties— a class beat able to help bear the burdens of the war. I think this will pass the Senate without serious opposition, and I know of no reason why it should be opposed in the House. “It is rumored here that the quota of this State is full under all the calls. Gov. Curtin has been to Washington several times for the purpose of having our quotas properly adjusted and our volunteers properly credited. Gov. Curtin has been indefatigable in his efforts to have justice done to Pennsylvania. He is en titled tn the thanks of tbe whole country for his bourse in this matter. Had it not been for the watchfulness of bur State authorities, several thousand would have been lost.” Towards the close of last week, a raft was discovered on fire while passing down the Sus quehanna river in the vicinity of Northumber land. Some persons from shore reached the raft ns soon as possible, when they found three men on hoard, tho one burned to a crisp, and the other two insensible. Being thus far gone, they conld give no accouht of themselves, their names, nor anything concerning the disaster. It is supposed that the straw and infiamable materials lying loosely about in the cabin took fire while they were asleep, or, what is more lamentable, intoxicated. The two men living were not expected to recover at latest accounts: —Leicisburg Chronicle.
