In the Piame and by the Authority
COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,
Or THE
ANDREW G. CURTIN,
GOVERNOR OF THR SAID COMMONWEALTH.
A PROCLAMATION.
rilff.E State of Pennsylvania is again threaten
ed with invasion and an army of rebels are
approaching our border. • '
The President of the United States has issued
his proclamation calling upon the State for
fifty thousand men. I now appeal to all the
citizens of Pennsylvania who . love liberty and
are mindful of the history and traditions of
their Revolutionary fathers, and who feel that
it is a sacred duty to guard and maintain the
free institutions of our country, who hate trea
son and its abettors, and who are willing to
defend their homes and their firesides, and do
invoke them to rise in their might, and rush
to the rescue in this hour of imminent peril.
The issue is one • of preservation or destruo•
Lion; it invokes considerations paramount to
all matters of mere expediency ; and all ques
tions of local interest, all ties, social and poli
tical, all Impulees of a personal and partisan
character,sink by comparison into losignificanoe.
It is now, to ba determined by deeds, and not
by words alone, who are for us and who are
against us.
That it is the purpose of the enemy to invade
our borders with all the strength he pan com
mand is now apparent.
Oar only deparlanee rests upon the deter
mined oaf .n of the citizans of oar free Com
monwealth.
I now, therefore, call upon the people ,of
Pennsylvania capable of bearing - arms to enroll
themselves in military orgin'sations, and to
encourage all others to give aid and assistance
to the eff:rte which will be put forth for the
protection of the state and the salvation of our
common ceuntry.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the
State, at Harriehurg, the ft.teenth day of
Tune, in the year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-three, and of the
Commonwealth the eighty-seventh.
BY ma GOVBIINOR
ELI SLIFEB,
Secretary of the Commonwealth
1 he Call to Arnie.
The President of the United States has issued
his proclamation, calling on Pennsylvania for
fifty thousand men. In response to that call
Governor Curtin' now appeals to the people of
this State, inviting all who are able to bear
arms to rally for the defence of their firesides
and their fields. There must be no mistaking
this call. It is not the result of mere rumor
or momentary fright. It is made in the face
of the startling fact that Lee, at 'the head of
his army, is even now on the soil of Maryland,
hastening to the borders of Pennsylvania, which
he will cross, lay waste our•territory, and deso
late our homes, if he is not promptly and suc
cessfully opposed. The people of this State are
therefore earnestly appealed to, to organize and
arm for this resistance. If the rebels are not
met on the borders—if they are not oppoeed
with vigor, and driven back, overwhelmed d
defeated, there is no estimating the evil which
will attend their progress over or through the
Commonwealth. We would, tlaerefere, have
every lulu at once to rally for :the_ general de-,
fence. We cannot tell when or where thelrlow
will fall. We cannot see where the torch of
the invader will be applied. What we want,
therefore, is action and vigilance at all points.
The action that wilt praetically respond to the
call of the Governor, and the vigilance Valch
will successfully oppose the invasion of the
enemy.
—Let the cry, then, be, to- arms ! TO MIMS !
TO AR IS'! ! !
Tested:
The people of Pennsylvania are being tested,
to-day, as they never were bebre. Since last
night, the telegraphic wires have, flashed the
facts of the danger which now threatens the
borders, to the remotest localities of the Com
monwealth. The people in the vallies, on the
mountains, in cities, towns and hamlets, have
heard the summons, and already the responses
are being flashed back over the telegraphic
wires, We are coming Pennsylvania is aroused
once more. Her sons are even now In motion,
not only to meet, but to pursue and overtake
the foe who so persistently menaces the North
with invasion. Every, man who is able
to respond, will he needed. Every man
who has had a month's experience in the
army, will find work to do—work in aiding
those • who are inexperienced, to meet the
emergencies of the crisis by rendering the best
service in their power. We have no hesitation
in writing that there are fifty thousand men
now preparing to March to a common centre in
this State—filly thousand Pennsylvanians marshal
ling to meet the invader wherever he may show his
face. The whole State is aroused. The upris
ing is, in all respects, equal to any which ha+
set displayed the devotion of the people of
Pennsylvania to the Government and the
Union.
Timm is an ab_urd storratiost - that Val'au
digham has been imprisoned by the rebel au
thorities. Of course it bas been got up to
make a little sympathetic capital among his
admirers—a spark to fire the Democratic heart.
<~.
Money to Pay the Volunteers tor the
At a meeting of the offic-re of the different
banking institutions of Philadelphia, this morn
mg, a motion was made and unanimoush
adopted, to tender the sum of one million of del
jars, as a loan to the Governor of the State, t
defray the expenses of the force now being called
out to oppose the imminent danger of rebel in
vasion. This is a testimony of confidence in the
Government, at one of the darkest hours of its
peril, worthy, of the highest commendation.
Other banking institutions in other parts of the
State, will of course imitate this example. The
people will respond to this confidence, and thus
with money and men in abundance at the com
mand of the State authorities, they can defy
invasion and laugh a siege to scorn.
The rebels want plunder. The cut-throats
who first rallied under the flag of recession
were won to that infamous cause by induce
ments held. out of invading the North, where
plunder would pay for all - the hardships of bat
tle, and the revenge thus afforded satisfy the
bitterest hatred which modern Democracy has
ever created for freedom. It was never im
agined even by those Southern men who at
first opposed rebellion, that its battles would
be fought in the South. Southern men were
taught to believe that the horrors of war would
all be enacted in the North. All that the
South would feel or see of the war would be
the passage of troops over its soil, hastening to
the conquest of the North, and returning to
lay the rich booty wrested from "the cowards
•f the free States" at the feet of the "beauty"
of the South. This feeling has animated every
man,from a Major General down to the rcurviest
lackey of the rebel army. Invasion and plun
der first induced the masses of the. South to
enlist, but that invasion and plunder have
never been realized. Still, the rebel leaders:
are anxious to make good-their .covenants, .by
leading their hungry followers into the heart
of tho North, and there afford them every op
portunity to plunder and destroy.
The present attempt to succeed in this lava
sibn, is perhaps the boldest that has yet been
made. The initial movement was for a time
baffled by the crossing of our forces below
Fredericksburg, and by Pleasanton's gallant
dash on Stuart at Beverly. In further expla
nation of his desire to invade the North, we
find the following hints in an editorial of the
Sicbmon .1 Whig of the Bth inst.:
"GENERAL LEL -It is too generally known to
raise any question of prudence in speaking of
it, that Geneial Lee has pat his army in mo
tion.- Hie designs are known only to himse.f,
and those with whom it was his , duty to confer.
A. few days will disclose them to the public,
who are willing to wait patiently, in full con
ddence that the resalt will vindicate the wis
dom of what he undertakes. A forward move
client on his part has been for some time antf
cipated by the enemy, and, is regarded, 'with
very perceptible uneasiness. Wbetker he
is about t i justify their apprehension, by bros
dug the Rappahannock, we have no better
cleans of determining, than our rea lers. Should
he do so, events of great consequence must
speedily follow.
A. a: CURTIN.
Can the President Recall the Proclama
tion of Freedom.
Two olkcts alone animate the slavery sym.
pathizing D.-mocracy of the country. One is
to save the institution of slavery in tent, with
all its powers and franchises unimpaired and
unabridged, and the other, to humiliate and
disgrace the men now in power. As an evi
dence of their perseverance to secure the find
of these objects, the Democracy fight no part
of the policy of Government so persistently as
it does that Which menaces in the least, the
institution of slavery. When the Interests of
slavery are directly involved'in the fight, where
that institution exposes its front to cover or to
encourage treason, there every Democratic
leader in the North directs his efforts; not to
assist in crushing treason, but to niake the most
strenuous efforts to defend and save slavery.
While these leaders are thus engaged in main
taining the negro in a' position to Strengthen
the hands of " his rebel master, their efforts
are as persistently 'directed to the disgrace of
the,President, the defeat of the army and the
demoralization of the free States.
—One of the means adopted to throw safe-
gnarls around slavery, has been to assail the
President's proclamation emancipating the
tilaves'of rebel miters. In order to open' this
4n - cation and provoke discussion by which this
proclamation may be obstructed, the Demo
.
cratio leaders are now gravely debating whether
that proclamation will be recalled. These men
understand that such a recall will. never be
made. They kirow that that proclamation, in
all its principles and promises, is as eternal as
the principles of the Government. Referring
to this matter, Postmaster General Blair uses
an argument which should be disseminated far
and wide. It is the best defioition' of the
powers of that proclamation yet given to the .
public. We give it, to show our readers how
a great man can treat a great sucject:
" The Proclamation to the slaves to weaken
the enemy commits the nwion irrevocably to make
good the pledge by the' uttitost exhibitions to its
power. It not only creates an obligation to the
- bondsmen whose action it is meant to control;
but is an implied pledge of honor to the foreign
powers whose conduct it is designed to influ
ence. That measure, which, as Commander
inUhief, the President adopted under the Con
stitution and in accordance with national law;
to obtain the co-operation of the whole race of
people, and which involves both life and free
dom in its results when proclaimed, Was beyond
revocation by either the civil or military authority of
Pie nation The people once slaves in the rebel
States can never again - be recognized as nigh by the
United &aim No judicial decision, no legisla
tive action, state or national, can be admitted
to re-enslave a people who are associated with
oar own destinies in this war .of defence to save
,theGovernmtnt, and whose manumission was .
deemed essential to the reatoration and,preeer
vation of the Union, and to its permanent
peace."

cr9g, which his been unfriendly to tieu. Pope,
,tow s'tss of him .: generally understood
that Gen. Pope is soon to be placed in the field.
We hope the repoit is true. Every day we re
spect him more and more. When he came

prejudiced against him, not so much on account
of his defeat, as to the appendix to his wrr

The Copperhead Love of "Free Speech."
The coppe , heads aro singularly inconsistent.
They now loudly clamor for "Free Speech,"
and yet there is no class of men who have been
its more violent opposers and who still bitterly
oppose It when that speech is not in their favor.
tas an illustration we cite an Instance. At the
great copperhead demonstration held in New
York to denounce the arrest of Vallandigham,
and assert the right of free speech, an old gentle
man was introduced to the platform, who said:
"F,Pow Democrats—l am not John Brown—l
am not Horace Greely—l am not Wendell Phil
lips—l am not Bennett of the Herald—l am not
Abraham Lincoln—l am a Democrat—a life
long Democrat. I never voted for any but a
Democrat. Abraham -Lincoln did not com
mence this war. [Hisses mists! with applause.]
south Carolina commenced the war. [Demon
strations of disapprobation.] I say South Caro
ina began the war by attacking Fort Sumter.
[Pat him down:]
Amid great confusion, the old man raised his
voice and continued, "lam here to-night through
an invitation of posters all over the city as a
friend of free speech." ["Put him down," and
in a rough manner the old man was draggd
from the rostrum.]
That's the kind of "free speech" the copper
heads favor—at a meeting called by them, as
they say, to proteCt "free speech." Such
scoundrels must think that the people are a set
of idiots and cannot see through such glaring,
inconsistencies.
Scrams —The Springfield (Hass ).Repubfican
says that from the'exchanges of a single mail,
a few days since, it clipped the record of no
less than thirty suicides, all of which occurred
within the space of forty-eight bouts. Of the
thirty, eight were females. Fourteen were be
lieved to have been caused from disappoint
ment in love, six from seduction, four from
monomania in religion, two—both lads of
twelire years—from cruel treatment of remota;
one from jealousy, and the remaining three
from misanthropy, sickness or sorrow.
