HARRISBURG. PA
Wednesday !Welling, Jane 24, 1563
THE SITUATION.
At about 11 o'clock this morning the Ship
pensburg operator received information through
Capt. Boyd's scouts that the rebels were within
one mile of that town. In half an hour after
wards Capt. Boyd called in his pickets and
fell back slowly towards kfewville. The operator
did likewise. This of course , ,oruis our commu
nication with Shippensburg, which is forty
five miles from Harrisburg. The operator was
expected to be heard from in two hours from
the time of his departure.
The enemy is reported by Capt. Boyd to be
in large force;
Infotmation derived from a rebel deserter
who came in at noon to-day, indicates that
Ewell has six brigades, and intends marching
on Harrisburg
The farmers in Cumberland valley are bring
ing their horses, cattle and everything movable
across the river, and unless matters change
within the next twelve hours, we presume our
non fighting population will again be on the
move.
2j P. K.—lnformation just received. from
the Shippensburg operator states that he had
arrived at Newville on a hand car.
He had nothing new to report, excepting
that Captain Boyd could not inform him of
the number of the rebel force at Bhippensburg.
The operator has made his arrangements to
keep the authorities here fully posted of the
enemy's movements.
THE VERY LATEST
S o'clock P. u.—The operator at Newville
rays the rebels have cut down ten telegraph
poles and thrown them and the wire into the
fire of the burning bridge at Scotland.
The operator of the telegraph in Gettysburg
informs us that the rebels have left that vi
cinity, and have not been heard from to-day.
Rimy. Reserves.
The correspondent of the New York Redd,
here, who, by the way, is about as reliable as
any that paper has, states that it is the officers
and not the men of this regiment who desire to
return home. The same writer, in another
letter, says that every woman—be she bride,
affianced or mother—will ever execrate those
who return home. The Greys are a fine look
ing body of men, and it is to be hoped their
final action will be as patriotic as we know their
promptings were generous in coming. The Greys
have in their ranks many men of wealth, sta
tion and Muer co at home. We know that
they have made , great sacrifices in coming here.
We feel confident that the Greys will not be
led into indiscreet action, no matter who be
the officers.. The taint upon their hitherto fair
name, could never be removed, were they to
follow out the suggestions of some who pretend
to advise them. Sympathizing with the many
young men, whose reputation is placed in
jeopardy by the contrived and attempted action
of some of their would•be leaders, we ask them
to beware how they trifle witti.a matter so se
rious as that they contemplate. To the men in
the ranks, we would say, be firm and consistent
in the stand you have taken, and your honor
will be inseparate and forever connected with
the history of our glorious old Commonwealth.
Union County.
The Union men of Union county, at a primary
election held last Saturday, selected candidates
to be voted for at the general election in Octo
ber next. The convention system of nomina
ting candidates is entirely discarded in Union
county. Voting directly for aspirants, every
candidate for nomination has an equal chance,
and when a ticket is selected all complaint of
unfair dealing is Made impossible. It would
be well for the,harmony of our organization, it
the same system were put into operation in
every election district in the Commonwealth.
A correspondent, in another column, gives the
vote and the names of the candidates selected.
The resolutions passed by the return judges
of the election to nominate candidates, are
among the best that have ever emanated from
men meeting under similar circumstances.
They deprecate the divisions now embarrassing
the operations of loyal men—declare that there
can be but two parties, one for and the other
against the Government, one composed of loyal
and the other of traitorous men—sustain the-
President and defend him from the traducers
who are essaying to trammel him in the per
formance of his sworn duty—and they justly
anathematise the domestic traitors who are en
deavoring to aid the insurgents is their hellish
struggles to destroy the Union. As a specimen
of the temper of these resolutions, we quote the
following:
6. That a time of war is manifr stly very
different in its privileges, and Governmental
powers, from a time of peace, and that this fact
should be constantly borne in mind. Military
necessities often have, and may, override all
the safeguards of peaceful days. We do not
ark to have the Constitution altered -to .suit
armed rebels. We are in favor of personal
freedom to all law-abiding men. We trust a
truly republican form of Government may be
secured to every State. We are in favor of
loyal and lawful (not licentious) liberty of the
speech and of the press, not only in time of
war, at the North, but also in time of peace,
at the South, to men of every clime and color.
But wo are not in favor of traitors preaching
destruction to our Government under pretence
of liberty, nor that the press and habeas corpus
should be prostituted to shield the Breckin
ridges, the Hughes, the Vallaudigharns and
other undoubted enemies in disguise from the
punishments which responsible commande
may judge expedient and essential.
6. That, as they who commence an unjust
contest, should pay its costs, we approve the
Confiscation act; that, as we believe black
men are no better than white men, we believe
in letting therforiner fight rebels as well as : the
latter ; that as slavery is in'itself wrong and
injurious, the Slaveholders' War opens a ccolit
stitutional Way to destroy that system ; ; and*.
our fathers and grandfathers were:drawn,
lot, to defend the country, their sons also
should respect and obey the draft, if volunteers
ors nnk. anfficient.
A Word for the People of Harrisburg.
The impression is sought to be created that
the people of Harrisburg are a ruercenary,beart
less pilfering gang of cannibals, who live by
feeding on the wallets of the soldiers, and who
have been indulging in all sorts of outrages
upon all sorts of people visiting the State Capi
tal for the last two years. Of course we are
neither willing to admit these wholesale charges ,
nor do we shrink from taking exceptions to them
singly or as a mass. During the entire
struggle in which the nation has been engaged,
the citizens of Harrisburg have felt the burdens
of the war more oppressively than the same
number of people •in any other part of the
Commonwealth. The dwellings of our citizens
have more than once been thrown wide open to
welcome and admit the weary soldier to their
hospitality and cheer. There is not a family
in Harrisburg, but what has entertained scores
and even hundreds of soldiers "without money
and without price." The hospitals connected
with the army have occupied our churches and
our school houses. Our places "cf business have
been restricted to make roam for the stranger
and the soldier—and while this was being freely
yielded.to the necessities of the times, it is cer
tainly not to be expected that the people of
Harrisburg should be made answerable for the
impositions practiced by individuals. In the
hurry of the assembling of thouiands and tens
of thousands of men, individuals can scarcely
escape suffering. With the soldiers who come to
Harrisburg come also crowds of speculators
and harpies, who follow the army expressly to
prey upon its necessities. Because such as
these impose upon the soldier, our entire city
should not be held responsible. Because sut
lets in disguise, - and irresponsible pedlers and
squatters, have imposed upon the soldier, a peo
ple whose hospitality Is proverbial should not be
mistepresented and traduced. We at least pro•
test against not only the rmpositions thus prac
tised upon the soldeir, but the other equally
me'imposition in casting the blame for the
wrong at the doors of the people of Harrisburg.
—Whatever it has coat the actual citizens of
Harrisburg to entertain and welcome the de
fenders of the Union, the latch string is still
ont at every door. There is not a loyal man in
this city who would refuse to share the contents
of his larder or the comforts of his home, with
the soldier. It has been done for the last two
weeks, it is being done now, and will continue
to be done while the struggle for the Govern
ment lasts. If any individual citizen fails in
this 'duty, it. is not fair to censure the whole
population for the failure. Let such as these
be exposed. We, are ready at any time to give
publicity to the fact of imposition whenever a
case oceans in which the testimony is sufficient
to justify the exposure. And in the meantime
we appeal, to the correspondents of journals
abroad who are now in this city, to do our peo
ple at least the common justice of pointing out
the individuals who are the authors of the im
position of Which they so clamorously com
plain. This course will bring the guilty to
justice, and save the fair fame of the hospitable
people or the capital of Pennsylvania from
misrepresentation and injury.
61 The SubinissionOtg-r
When that notorious blackguard and blatant
tory, Bill Witte, wss literally kicked out of the
Democratic (?) convention, he turned his spite
and showed his teeth to those who were sup
porting the Government, characterising them
as " submiasionists.".. The term is an apt one,
and in every sense in which such demagogues
as Witte make use of it, it illustrates the loy
alty of one and the treason of other parties.
Without submission there can be no peaceful
Government. Without obedience to and re
spect for the law, social order would be lost
amid violence, anarchy, blood shed and death.
Mr. Witte curls his lip and scornfully cries that
those who obey the law are " stibmissionists I"
Sabmissionists to what ? To the Constitutional
power of the land—to the operation of lima in
the passage of which all parties participated—to
the exercise of authority which was created by
the free will and concession of the people, that
security mightbe Nouchsafed to all, and that the
possession of life, liberty and property might
become the inalienable rights of all. To this
Mr. Witte, and through him the Democratic
party, objects. The law is a mere dodge to de
ceive the multitude. Those who obey it, are
cringing " submissionfate," dolts and fools,
Revolution and resistance, rebellion and trea
son, violence, bloodshed and anarchy are the
objects Uf such men as Witte—at least the ob
ject whichlhey endeavor to induce other men
to panne, their own coward hearts always
shrinking from the responsibility of action on
the theories which they preach.
Every good citizen is a submissionist. Every
demagogue who attempts to ridicule obedience
to the law, is a traitor, double dyed and doubly
deserving of a halter. If we do not submit to
the authorities, then we must resort to rebel
lion. It is either submission, awaiting the
proper time for the application of the remedies
provided by our forms of government, or it is
open revolt, defying the legal authorities,
trampling upon all forms and laws and march
ing to redress over the fragments of a dismem
bered Union,
It only requites a step in the right direction
to put such men as Witte in their true positions.
With interests and sympathies all in favor of
treason, they only require common dog courage
to induce them to take up arms and fight under
the ble i tk banners of the rebellion. When
they do this they can be properly met. Until
then this talk of "submission" will only serve
to show how ridiculous men become when con
trolled by passion, and when they have also
been disappointed in their mad ambition.
Their lesson of "submission" has yet to be
learned. Its 'inculcation is certain at the polls
in October next.
Proposition to Hang "the Dotal."
The following article from tbe organ of Jeff.
Davis, published at:Knoxville, Tennessee, is
commended to the consideration of those Ger
mans here and elsewhere, whohav9 been led,
against their better judgment and the. tradi
tloni of - their Fatherland, by copperhead dema
gogues, to sympathize with 'the rebels, or at
least•tfit place themselves in an attitude of op
position to the administration of the United
States Government. • We think that with this
knowledge of whet the rebels think of the Ger
mans and how they purpose to treat them, any
German who still blindly follows their copper
head leaders, is utterly destitute of self-respect
and of brotherly feeling for the gallant Ger
mans in our army:
[From thi .Irnoxville Regitter, Tunel7 .]
'Of late, in all battles and in all recent in
cursions made by Federal cavalry, *u have
found the great mass of Northern soldiers to
consist of Dutchmen. The plundering thieves
captured by Forrest, who stole half the jewelry
and watches in a dozen counties of Alabama,
were immaculate Dutchmen. The national odor
of Dutchmen, as distinctive of the race as that
which, constantly ascending to heaven, has dis
tended the nostrils of the negro, is as unmis
takable as that peculiar to a pole cat, an old
pipe, or a lager beer saloon. Crimes, thefts and
insults to the women of the South, invariably
mark the course of these stinking bodies of
animated sour kraut. Itosecrans himself is an
unmixed Dutchman, an accursed race which has
overrun the vast districts of the country of the
Northwest. 0 0 ° It happens that we
entertain a greater degree of respect for an
Ethiopian in the ranks of the Northern armies
than for an odoriferous Dutchman, who can
have no possble interest in this revolution. 0
Why not hang every Dutchman captured ?
We will hereafter hang, or shoot, or imprison for life
all while men taken in: command of negroes, and en
slave the negroes themselves. This is not too harsh.
No human being will assert the contrary. Why,
then, should we not hang a Dutchman, who
deserves infinitely less of our s3mpatlay than
Santo. The live masses of beer. kront, tobacco
and rotten cheese, which, on two legs and four,
on foot and mounted, go prowling through the
South, should be used to manure the sandy
plains and barren bill sides of Alabama, Ten
nessee and Georgia. 0 Whenever a
Dutch regiment adorns the limbs of a Southern [erect,
daring cavalry raids into the South shall cease. *
* President Davis need not be specially con
sulted, and if an accident of this sort should occur to
a plundering band like that captufed by Forrest; we
are not Wined to believe that our. President would be
greatly disgruntled."
Beater
The Union men of Beaver county have nomi
nated a strong ticket, to be supported at the
coming fall election. For the Supreme Bench
they put forward the Hon. Daniel Agnew, at
present the President Judge of the Judicial
District of which Beaver county constitutes a
portion,' and undoubtedly one of the ablest
jurists and purest men in the Commonwealth.
William Henry was renominated for legislative
representative, a recognition , alike due to the
services , of the man and 'the interests of the
county. In the last Legislature, Mr. Henry
was a power, while his Integrity and assiduity.
made him one of the most successful men on
the floor of the House. The other nominations
for local, positions are as follows;
Sheriff, Joseph Ledlie, Beaver ; Register and
Recorder, Alfred R. Moore, Beaver ; Treasurer,.
John Caughey, Beaver ; Clerk of Court, John

THE CONTEST FOR THE NOMINATION OP GOVERNOR
ON THE POPULAR VOTE OP THE 'UNION PARTY.--
THE NOMINATIONS FOR COUNTY OFFICERS.
Corrowndence of the 7tiegrapte.]
LEWISBURG, June 23, 1863.
In Union county, the Administration party
vote directly for the men they prefer as candi
dates, without the intervention of delegates.
This is the third year of the system, which snits
the people well, and works admirably. Tha
vote cast at the primary election, Saturday last,
was more than two-thirds of our whole strength.
The vote for Governor was small—Covode tak-.
log the leaf, Curtin next, and 37 in Lewisburg
for a very good new man, Mayor Henry, of
Philadelphia. The chief contest was for As
sembly, and the choice fell upon Samuel H.
Orwig, a promising young lawyer.of this place,
who was (and is) serving as a private in one of
three companies sent from Union county to
serve during the existing emergency. The
other candidates are
Commissicmer—Simuel Marshall, New Coluia
bia..
Iregister and Recorder —Elkha H. Weikel, Kelly
X Roads.
Treasurer—William Jones, Esq., Lewisburg
Audttor—Dr. Wm. F. Seebold, Xartleton.
These are good and true men, fairly on
our ticket, and will be elected. The resolutions
are emphatic, and much to the purpose.
Our people are waking up to the work, and
see that we must unite as a party, as well as a
community, to carry the day against open and
secret foes. And while our drafted mea have
enlisted for another half year, and we have
sent nearly 300 more on the last call, those at
home realize that greater duties devolve upon
them. We have now Union Leagues in Lewis
burg, New Berlin and Hertleton boroughs, and
in Brady, White Deer and Kelly townships, as
a beginning. Hely upon it, Old Union will do
her duty next fall.
Fruit is promising in this region, and the re
cent rains make the prospect good for bounti
ful harvests generally.
Let me whisper a word in your ear, Mr. Edi
tor. Some of our lately enlisted volunteers
say the wont copperheads they have seen are
in Harrisburg—men who tell them there is no
danger of rebels invading our State ; men who
seemed to be doing nothing to defend their OWII
city ; men who conspire to rob and defraud the
soldier in every way possible; men who said
the guerillas at Chambenburg were "perfect
gentlemen, who paid greenbacks for all they
bought." If Harrisburg were the other side of
the Susquehanna, and all the noble, loyal men
and women in it would leave, the Union soldier
boys would be reconciled to let the others be
given up to a six months' reign of the secesh
"gentlemen." (Don't let the copperheads of
your city know what their pretectors think of

June 15th, 1863. jj
Thinking that a few items from the Ninth
Army Corps would be interesting to your many
readers, I submit the following :
PENNOTLVARLLNB ON Talint WAY TO VIIIKBOIIita
You are no doubt aware that the Ninth Army
Corps has left Kentucky, and are on their way
(it is supposed) to join Gen. Grant. Connected
with the Corps is the 45th Penna., commanded
by our intrepid and youthful Colonel, J. I. Cu.
tln. Though but a youth, he is adequate
to . the discharge of the responsible duties
devolving on him, having under his command
one of the fittest drilled regiments >I ever lOW,
commanding respect, wherever they and
are an honor to =the Want youth who cam-
Mande them. Next is the . 100th, the "Round
Head Boys," ready to go wherever duty, calls
that+ ,Neat, but not least, IL the blel , who
have participated in so many hard fought battle'.
And the last is the 50th boys, who fear no
danger, and whose watchword is:
"Lift that banner, let it wave,
Onward march, our country to save.-
Two of the brigades aro commanded by Penn
sylvania Colonels, viz: Colonel Leasure of the
100th, and (Jolonel Christ of the 50th. The
division is udder crmroand of Brigadier General
Welch. formerly Colonol of the gallant 45th.
The health of the division is good.
THE FORTY-FIFTH REGIMENT, P. V.—The Mem
phis Bulletin of the 14th inst. pays a high compli
ment to the 45th regiment, P. V., one of the
very best organizations that have yet left the
State to assist in the defence of the people of
the south west. We gots from the Bulletin as
follows:
The 45th Pennssyrvania.—Our attention was
yesterday engrossed for a short time in witness
ing the evolutions in the manual of arms, by
this well ordered and well drilled regiment.
We have never seen together a more healthy or
finer looking body of men. Col. Curtin, its
youthful but able commander, is every way
worthy of his position. Success to the Key

Great Length of Railroad Destroyed.
Immense Excitement Created.
hinarlunsnono, June 23
Oa Monday General Carter with two thou
sand mounted infantry, madei a raid in Emit
Tennessee, deatroyed Lenoes station and the
factory of Lenor Brothers ' besides tearing up a
great length of railroad. The rebels were
drawn up at London. prepared to give battle,
but General Carter avoided that point, giving
it out that he was going to Knoxville on Friday
night.
The raid is causing an immense excitement
in Middle Tennessee.
LATER FROM VICKSBURG.
aztanAL lemma;AND amovilD
Official advices from General Grant to the
19th inst., at noon, report some advantages
gained by our forces on the 18th. The siege
was progressing satisfactorily..
General M'Clernand has been removed from
the command of the 13th army corps, and
General Ord assigned to the command in his
place.
General Wisner has destroyed the railroad
bridge at Panola. No particulars have been
received.
YOUNG'S Ponrr,June 17, via Cain°, June 28.
The Maine brigade, under Gen. Ellet, accom
panied by. Gen. Meade, made a reconnoissance
to Bichmond on the 18th, with 2,300 men, and
drove 8,500 rebels out of the place, captured
thirty prisoners, and burned the town. Oar
loss was slight.
On the 15th, at Marion, Alkansas, Ellet's
cavalry captured a wagon containing what pur-
ported to be six barrels of flour and three boxes
of goods, but, on examination by the commis
sary, were found to contain over five hundred
thousand percussion caps, packed in the flour
barrels; the boxes contained stationery. The
whole had been permitted to pass out of Mem
phis. Documents viva also found implicating
wellAnown merchants of St. Louis as the guilty
parties.
WALNITT Hums (near Vicksburg,) June 17.—A
copy of the Vicksburg Whig, extra, printed on
wall paper, pretends to give - exciting Northern
news, putting General Grant's loss at 40,000.
A rebel lieutenant, captured yesterday, says
that Pemberton's purpote was to die sooner than
surrender.
There was 'picket skirmishing 'at Haines'
Bluff, yesterday and Monday. The rebels are
reported to be advancing on our defences at
that point.
The total casualties in General M'Clernand's
corps in the campaign is 3,956 ; the division of
Generel Blair lost 896 killed, wounded and
missing, in the assaults of the 19th and 22dult.
The report that the rebels are fortifying the
Black River Bridge is erroneous. The enemy
are not within many miles of that place.

SECRET OF BEAUTY!
LA.IRD'S
Bloom of Youth or Liquid Pearl
- you beautifying and preserving the com
l.' pleaion and skin.
Alter using Laird's Bloom of Youth, or Liquid
Pearl, for a short time, it will leave the skirt a
soft, satin-like texture ; it imparts freshness,
smoothness and transparency to the skin, that
can only be produced by the use of this valuable
article. It presents no vulgar white paint, as
another attempted compounds do, but, on the
contrary, it will give the complexion a pearl
like tint, such as can only be found in youth ;
to use is impossible to be detected by the olosea
observers. It is also invaluable for rembving
all kinds of Humors, Taus, Freckels, Sunburns
and other cutaneous diseases from the skin.
Mr. Laird has every confidence in rtcom
mending his Bloom of Youth, or Liquid Pearl,
to the ladies of America, as being the only per
fect and reliable article now in use for btautifyinti
and preserving the complexion and skin.
Can only be had at S. A. KUNKEL'S
je22 Apothecary, Harrisburg.
