Republic. A Lae and a Cowardly Boast. The Tory Organ, this Morning, unable to con ceal Its chagrio, and anxious to exhibit its dis regard of, troth, loyalty and honor, attempts to create the impression that it was ignorant of the fact Of the indignation its own shameful conduct had produced among the soldiers,,and thee, with well-affected surprise, seeks to show, to the public that it disregards all warnings to silence rte treason-sympnthislng publications. Be it known, notwithstanding this attempt, that from the first-. appearance of the nine months' men in this city; the Patriot people sought the protection' of fthe mayor and ran after the military authorities to_place a guard over their .estatilishnwt. They knew at they had aspersed the character of the soldiers who were ahout to return—they knew that that they lied cast ishame in their/pada- that they had assailed their,leader as a BRAGGART AND A-BOASTER, and crowned the infamy of their damnable 'lies by pronouncing him a DRUNKARD! even in the hour when the good sword of the gallant Hooker was dripping with the blood of the enemies of the- country. In the face of this fact, the Tory Organ comes out this morning and clidnia,,ttint . the TE,LIGHAPH has been inching the soldiery against - that es tablishment, and that it had merely heard whisperings of this fact, and therefore took oc casion to reply that it scorned all such threats; that it would not-be deterred from its wornprof treason ;that-it would - afford all the sympathy in its power totruitors, &c Wee evaraudacity carried to greeter liogtitY RaVri * WtiOldfli. of hell entirely taken possession of the minds of the poor dri;rellera who control the columns of the Patriot, orare they detennitiedto drive brave men beyolid their patience, and provoke them to that which their.' jcdgment and their • sense would resist? 'We submit this question to the fair men of Harrisburg—we ask in all candor, whether, when the dead •are being buried and the cries of the wounded still ring in.our ears, such sentiments can go unrebuked with indig nation, or unanswered in words of truth The 2bry Organ further declares that it is de termined to do just as it has been= doing ; that is, give its sympathy - to traitors and cast the impediment of its abuse in the path of the_ Government. If it dare do , this. still further with impunity, it will dare do more, imsgining, loyal men will „subinft iri-,petience. Aye, the cowardly miscreants will proceed from words to assaults, dreaming all the while that loyal men will not resist, and the) in their fiendish, damnable work, flatter themselves , that they , me playing the part of brave men. If they have a rightto assail the Government and tra duce its delepriere,threngt thetiolemnsof their newspaper, they have ids° the Ant to stand their office deorand shOotderithe &eve men who are passing unarmed inlong street. One could not midst the rebel cause more than the other—and if one is toleratsd in patience we have no reason to hoße that the other will not be indulged in at' any moment. —We have no quarrel with those-who control° the treason reeking columns , of the Tory Organ, beyond the issues Which they have- made with the Government in the hour of its peril. They have constituted themselveka great public ene my. They have given force to rebellion by attempting to break the power of the blows otruok lor its suppression. They have dignified treasonhy delendiug its excesses.: They have increased - the general danger by alarming the people with cries of tyranny against thetlov entnent„ *ben no act of those in authority , could fairly. considered in, any Other light' but that of-patriotism and sincerity , to save the nation from utter destruction. - And adding to their infamy the masi .wantian libels, that , sheet has at length descended to the ford work of assailing our officers in therfteld..-...Are not. the conductors of such a paper public .enemies 2 Have they not defied the law and outraged every feeling , of =manly loyalty t Yea,. a 'thousand times yes ! And 'until they have received. hell's fiercest down; they will never be fitly' punished for their treason and their Rhea to , freedom and on freemen A Noble Aentiment. We extiactihe following from:a letter in a late Huntingdon Nemter, a vile and petty trea sonable pnblicittioni lately started expressly to give aid and' comfort to ihe bloody attempts o the Ebve drivers to'destioy a free Povernment. The letter was written by John Pone:tarty, R,_ q., a man atlitairle hiding; who has uniformly ac t e d with the Democratic party. We care not howexer, what)lc, Dougherty has Veretofore been, - as the man who can boldly enunciate sentinifitissuchls those we„gonte From a let ter in theiNoniter,h44'4 6 **Ting of omikh sat confiaimbiatidtiost'ainteis;aspect: sir, when an attempt is made to art, the Democratic party on the side of Pagan Philos ophy, by denouncing, in President Lincoln, the system of compensated emancipation, by which Europe was rescued from slavery, I must be permitted to protest against such propositions in the name of humanity and, as against the teachings and practice of that faith which freed the slave, ransomed the captive, softened the barbarian, enlightened the ignorant, refined philosophy, and civilized the world !" —The Monitor denounced these sentiments as anti-Democratic. Thus far it was right, be cause modern Democracy only means oppression to the weak and outrage to the pure. Brave Men Declining a Reception at the Hands of their Traducers. One of the instructive lessons of the war is that taught by the officers and men of the 122 d Regiment, P. V., to the authorities of Lancaster city. The Mayor of Lancaster, with a majority of the "city fathersy are among 'those who do not hesitate to declare that this war is a crusade against the rights and the property of the people of the South. George Sanderson, the Mayor, through thecolumns of his paper, the Inklli get iter, has made A nse of argument against the war ler the Unioziand the Constitution, which any editor in the south would have blushed to print in favor of treason. Be has used the columns of his paper to defend Vallandigham, and traduce such veteran statesmen as Thad deus Stevens—he has made a mockery of free dom and deified slavery—and like him, the other members of the city government of Lan casteihave made every occasion serve to amid' the men who are periling life 'arid limb, as either "dinned abolitionists," or "traitors worse than Jeff Davis himself." Yet theie men would come forth, with their hypocritical hearts in their bands, to welcome the boys who have stood on fields of blood in defence of the gov ernment. The spectacle would have indeed been humiliating, and well has it been for Col. Franklin and his brave folloWers that they saved themselves from the humiliation, and deprived such hypocrites as Sanderson of an opportunity to manufacture political capital. The veterans of the 1223 regiment have thus set an example to the brave men of the other regiments, which we trust wilt be instantly emulated. Let the brave spurn the welcome" of the treacherotis. Let them spit upon hands that would cheer them home, which have trembled as they gave force to tongues uttering the vilest treason. Such lessons are deserved, and 'the teaching will result io good to all con cerned. —We predict that the" loyal people of Lan caster county will give the 122 d a reception such as no hypocritical official welcome could have equalled. ~ Let the loyal sons and daughters of Lancaster meet their brave brothers—meet them frankly and cordially—welcome them home and point out to them such men as Sanderson, as having howled in the paths leading to battle and the danger of death, sympathy for treason. We have more than once warned the kaitors at-home that when the soldiers returned, they would receive) their punishment, and thus,early is our prediction being , realized. Let the Soldier Resist the TempUktions of the Tory. If any_ one thing was apparent to the public of Harrisburg this morning, after reading the leader in the Tory Organ,, it was the yearning desire on the part of the , proprietors _of and Writers for that sheet to be martyrized. They have gone their fall lengths to provoke the soldiery to an attack on, their establishment, hoping thereby to manufacture capital for trea• son, and attract public sympathy for the condi tion in which such an assault would place. them. This is one of the motives which in duced the publication of the article in this morning's 2bry Organ. But there Is still an other, a more mercenary and therefore a more natural motive for the course of thb journal in question. If its proprietors could provoke an assault on that office, and a destruction of the material on which the 2bry Organ is printed, Dauphin county would be compelled to replace the, old stock thereby destroyed with new type and presses, and thps, as we heard a copperhead declare this morning, "the damn Abolitionists would' have to =tribute to the support of a sound advocate of slavery and a bully opponent of the Lin coln ruisrul el" We waut ortr friends, the loyal soldiers now in Harrisburg, to think. of these facts, and then their indignation against that miserable publication will
