TRIG SITUATION.
Long before the sun rose in splendor this
morning, a scene of bustle, -excitement and
Confusion commenced, such as has never before
been witnessed ig the capital of Pennsylvania.
During the night, troops were hurried over the
river. Regiment iolloied regiment, until this
morning, when our streets were comparatively
cleared of soldiers, except thoss which reached
the city by the regular morning and noon
trains. But the excitement, apart from the
movement of troops, was that which attended
the ingress and egress of .people who came
from the Cumberland side of the river, and
who parsed through the city, hurrying to a
place of safety with all that was dear and valu
able to them. Every machine on wheels capa
ble of hauling a load was brought into requisi-
tion. These came wheeling and trundling
along, each laden to the top—some with grain,
household effects and household gods—others
with store goods, maclinery, tools, and, in
fact, all that was valuable and mova l l€. Fol
lowing these came other vehicles, filled
with women and children—then came men
and boys mounted on hcrses !riving.
before them cows and sheep. The scene was at
once exciting and pitiful. It came to us as the
first hot breath of war. It admonished us that the
fde was indeed approachiog, and as the carnival
moved through- our streets its magnitude and
numbers were increased by accessions cf goods
and individuals from Harrisbgrg, who a moved off
with the train, intent also on flight and safety.
From all accounts that we can gather, we learn
that the farmers in the Cumberland valley have
resolved to leave nothing valuable for the In
vader to seize. As the enemy extends his raid
Into this State he will find that his march is
only to meet danger; and when he turns to re-
trace his steps over a territory he has desolated,
he may also And that his path tea bc:Km
by so obstacle he did not calculate to meet.
The mystery-and doubt which have enveloped
the movements of Gen. Lee's army of North
ern Virginia, seem to have been partially die
pelted at fast, by tie pretty well authenticated
report which we have to-day, to the effect that
the enemy has concentrated his, forces in the
valley of the Shentuidear, at the foot of the
Blue Ridge mountains.. This movement mani
festly declares that the; entire force under Lee
Is to follow in the wake of Gen. Ewell's corps,
and a mammoth invasion of the Northern States
projected. Lynchburg will., no doubbwbecome
General Lee's fortified base for the,Present, and
may yet become the rebel capital. All this
gaies probability and force, from the fact that
General Hooker's army is now operating in the
vicinity of Maryland Heights.
In view of -these movements it has become
the duty. Of. the Government to put its armies
on the defensive in Virginia, Maryland and
Pennsylvania, and leave the comrnunicAtionsof
Gen. Lee to be disturbed by some independent
carps operating irons the coast. It is certainly
to be regretted that Gen. Hooker should hive
been withdrawn from the South bank of the
Potomac, from which region he might have
struck the rebel army in the flank and -rear,
forced it to come out and fight a pitched battle,
and rendered its total discomfiture probable
with the aid of the large militia force now de
fending our State and endeavoring to drive
back a body of invaders probably not half their
number. Gen. Halleck has preferred a cau
tious, campaign to a brilliant one, and probably
has chosen a course which will be most satis-
factory to the people for the present at least
Gen. Ewell is at Hagerstown •waiting the ar
rival of re-enforcements from Gen Lee's main
army, when he hopes to place the State of Penn
sylvania south of the Susquehanna under the
rebel standard and military rule. He is en
deavoring assiduously , to deceive us as to his
strength and real position by continuing to send
outiyipg , columni iweveuAtecilon. Beyond
Inordinate plßas.l,e, 1,J.,1,,1d0ing - us .no serious

with more risk and danger than any other Gen-
eral has ever met without serious disaster and
humiliating failure.
2 o'clock, p. sr.—The operator at Graysons'
urived at Carlisle about 11 o'clock this morn
ing, and reported the rebels slowly advancing
towards the latter place. Graysons' it almost
six miles west of Carlisle.
It U reported by some of the refugeta who
reached this city at noon to day, that the rebels
declare one of their main purposes to be the de
struction of the grain fields in the Cumberland
Valley. The rebels are engaged in this work
already, laying waste the broad acres which
were rich with grain crops awaiting the band of
the reaper.
An Upright, Oliviae on an Open ginesstion.
The copperhead Democracy played their best
and their concealed card, when they nominated
Woodward for Governor. He Is undoubtedly
the purest man in the copperhead neat—and he
is notoriously of that cold :and slimy nature,
which congeals all with which it comes In con ,
tact and curdles everything-with which it at
tempts to mingle. He , is, all brains and no
heart. Fall of calculation and subtlety, a
schenier and a sophist, Judge Woodward is
never practical, never plain, and never in Byrn ,
path) , with the people. No man will question
nis honeaty, yet few who know him, have con
fidence in his integrity, simply because his
nature is each that he cannot resist the influence
of self interest, though that interest lead to
dishonor and shame. As an evidence of - his
fondness fot "self " his connection . with the
Episcopal Convention, which lately assembled
in Philadelphia, affords the most singular proof.
Judge Woodward was elected a delegate to that
Convention, but having felt the pulse of many
of three who held credentials of membership
in the same body, he began to calculate that it
would be wise for him to absent himself from
its deliberations. This fact convinces us, that'
at that early day Judge Woodward was already
scheming for the Gubernatorial nomination. If
he attended the Episcopal Convention, he would
be forced to take position on one of the vital
questions of the age. He would be called upon
to vete aye or nay on a question between his
God and himself. This was too much for the
wily judge. He was not willing to jeopardize
-his relations with his party or peril his chances
for nomination, even if the cause of God or the
interests of his church were at stake. The in
evitable nigger question intimidated' this im
maculate Judge, and there 'ore his seat 'in the
-Convention was vacant during all its sessions.
This little Incident presents a fair index of the
character of Judge Woodward. His opinions,
his actions, his words and his deeds are all con
trolled by self. Even at this hour of dreadful
peril to the nation, the country has involved
no interest equal in importance,, to the interests
of Judge Woodward's self. The soldier in the
field, bloody, gasping and dying, - that the
Union may be preserved and the Government
maintained, is unworthy of consideration, when
Judge Woodward's self is concerned, or when
his road to distinction, profit and pay is to be
cleared. 'At-least, so Judge Woodward thinks ;
a fact which any observing man may fer
lito
from his public action. Added to thi is
bitter, bigoted and unscrupulous in his arty
allegiance.

To serve that same party, be would go further
to impair the rights and destroy the power of
these same gallantmen. Frcim disfranchising the
soldier, there is but a single step to his defeat by
his betrayal. Is the man who is guilty of the one
capable of the other act ? This question the
people and the soldiers themselves must an

The Union State Convention.
We announced, this morning, the fact that
the Union Stet Central Committee had resolved,
to extend the time of holding the Union State
Convention, at Pittsburg, from •July Ist to
August Ear. It will be recollected that we're.
commended such an extension of time, and we
are glad that the Committee so early responded
to that recommendation. The reasons for this'
extension are numerous and obvious. One-half,
at laid, of the delegates to the Pittsburg'Con-
vention are now in the army , summoned to the
defence:of the Commonwealth from invasion.
Under nocircumstanoes would these men ask or
could leave of absence be granted, to attend a
mere political convention, however noble and
patriotic the objects of such an assemblage.
With Union men, the Union`and the Govern=
meat come first —party and its attendant oper
ations and business come afterwards. Unlike
our political opponents, we are, not willing to
meet in. 'wrangle and bitterness, and jealousy,
at a moment when an invader is carrying con
sternation into the homes of our fellow citizens
along-the border. It is rather the duty of all
true men to suspend all personal and political
business, and devote themselves exclusively to
the all important business of resisting and if
'Possible overcoming and conquering the in
vaders.
—The postponement of the Union Conven
tion, for, these reasons, will pf course be ap
proved by all loyal men. That postponement
cannot affect any of the business to be transacted
on that occasion. It will shorten the political
campaign, and thus afford Union men the op
portunity of devoting themselves almost es
elusively to the great campaign for the country's
deliverance from rebellion.
BEY. Da. W. T. DLit:SOos published a letter
in this morning's Tory Organ, which seems to ns
to be the most indiscreet act of.' his .whole life,
not even excepting his indiscreet and stubborn
refusal fro take the oath of allegiance to a gov •
erivaent which is struggling to put down rebel'
lion. In that letter he dahlia special credit for
has course of aoudad while in this city—con
dint which he, should blush to. acknowledge,
Consisted in , wraPpliA, 'himself up in a sort of
geld dignity, and,:whlie beholding the noble
sacTifices and daring struggles of a free.people
to preserve ,Jhberneelies from destruction, re
take even' so much as a simpleitathoi
allegiance -to the Government of, the Union.
Rev. Leaccck should have told the world that
even after all the kindness thus extended to
him—after his puree had been replenished by
some of the people of Harrisburg—after he bad
been afforded an asylum here—after he had been
welcomed ton pulpit in which speech was free—
after he had experienced our magnanimity and
tested our bounty, he arrogantly refused to
pledge himself in allegiance to the Government
which afforded us the means of thus generously
and hospitably treating him. The mere return
if thanks to his friends, will not relieve Bev.
Dr. W. T. Leacock from the black-hearted in
gratitude which his whole conduct implies, and
for his own sake, as well as for the reputation
of the church of which he is a pastor, we
hope he will not again engage in epistolatory
@tort to define his position or portray . his
gratitude. His place is not where Christian
freemen are engaged in a noble struggle for
freedom and religion. It Is rather where
traitors and assassins are fighting to enforce
oppression and maintain the brutishness of bar
barism. Let him go thither, and henceforth
relieve us of his espistles and his presence.
The Late Coi►ventlone
The Democratic State Convention at Harris
lung and that held at Springfield, Illinois, have
adopted a series of resolutions, ironic illy assert
ing fidelity to the Constitution, but denouncing
in gross terms the Government, as false to the
country and the cause. When we reflect that
the Government is doing all it can to re p e l th e
armies who have invaded4he loyal States, we
are amazed at-thisanatety to abum Its measure 3
to save the country, While so little censure Is
given to - themeasnres of those Who are seeking
to destroy it.
In contrast with this spirit how encouraging
is that of the Union Conventions of Ohio and
New Hampshire. At the former, which met at
Columbus this week, and was the largest ever
held in the State, the anti-copperhead feeling
ran very high. John Brough was nominated
for Governor and Charles. Anderson for Lieute
nant Governor.
The Germans throughout the State are bolt
ing the Vallandigham ticket and coining out
in strong array for Brough. The enthusiasm.
for the Union nominations appears to be deep
and rapidly increasing, and as the division of
the Democrats seems to be complete, Ohio will,
doubtless, be carried by the Union men by an
overwhelming majority.
The Convention at Concord was moot enthu
siastic, not less than 20,000 people being fire-.
sent. Resolutions were adopted pledging sup
port to the Government in quelling the
rebellion, and denoucing as traitorous all those
men of the loyal States who discourage en
listments, or in any other way lend aid
to schemes embarrassing the Government in
this crisis of our national life. Elcquent ad
dresses were made by General Butler, Mont
gomery Blair, General Hamilton, Ira Parley,
President of......the.4Convention, and unmistak
able proof was given that New Hampshire is
earnest in upholding the authority of the
Government.

Perhaps in the whirl of excitement attendant
upon the ingress of "the militia" into' your
city—of the tramp of armed men in your very
hearing, hastening to the'reScue of our beloved
Commonwealth, you have lost eight of the fact
that, away down in this sequesterd nook,
where news and newspapers are never inquired

to rectify this unintentional omission that I
now write.

The exact number of militia stationed here
it may be improper to make public, but yon
may rest satisfied that.it is considerable. They
are composed principally of Cambria, Blair and
Clearfield men—men who are able to "travel
on the made" at home, and wbo will not
shrink from peril here. They are not classilhd
into regiments, but have all been mustered in
for the emergency, and the former operation
will no doubt be performed within a few days.
Till then we lay dormant.

Bloom of Youth or Liquid Pearl
FOR beautifying and preserving the com
pletion and skin.
After using 'Laird's Bloom of Youth, or Liquid
Pearl, for a short time, it will leave the ,kin 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 punt, a=
all other attempted compounds do, but, on tha
contrary, it will give the comp'exion a pearl
like tint, such as can only be found in youth ;
its use is impossible to be detected by the closost
observers. It is also invaluable for removing
all kinds of Humors, Tans, Freckels, Sunburns
and other cutaneous diseases from the skin.
Mr. Laird has every confidence in recom
mending his Bloom of Youth, or Liquid Pearl,
to the ladies of America, as bang the only per
fect and reliable article now in use for beautify*
and meerving the cern-Amore and skin.
Canonly be had at S. A. KUNKEL'S
