use this opportunity to admit that we were

by Judge Pearson. His father claimed the re
lease on account of his being a minor, only
fifteen years old, when he entered the service

Shirk was a deserter, nor did he . so report him

No MAN IN PCNNSYLVANLA: has apologia , for
as many political sirisof commission and omll3
.
.
sion as George W. Woodward, because m .the
hot baste of his aspirations to procure office of
trust and honor . , no man has so zealously
.de
voted himself to political trimming. When
men rise to 'power and eminence, by their hold
on the people, on account of services rendered,
or the ability , to serve a State ors nation, we are
all forced to respect their- succeas. But when
they seek power and position . .solely for , the
satisfaction of some personal end, Of the grati
fication of personal success, they invariably re
sort to falsehood and fraud,- or they become the
advocates of theories at once dangerous to the
progress of the government and the safety of the
people. Thus it has been with George W. Wood
ward, the copperhead candidate for Governor of
Pennsylvania While endowed with the highest
order of intellect, with the advantage of having
oaityed . the society of the great•men of his are,
he is undoebtoity the "littlest great man" In
the Commonwe I.h. His career is thickened
with errors, wherever he turns from his legiti
mate badness of the law to play statesman or
legialatur. Rein.. a mere theorist, and without
any practical knowledge of men or badness,
his neistak, s are always of the kind which most
serioudy affect the peptic interest. This all
will admit, who are not , blindly in love with
the heresies which the Copperhead candidate
for ,- Goveltior is pledgel to support and enforce.
And surely, such a man is not At • to, become
the Governor of a great Commonwealth, like,
Pennsylvania.
A Dangeroits Eiperiment.
Ono of the moat dangerous experim :tie
which pouple ever made, wou'd b , that f
changing the policy of the State (I',iveinin , nt
of Peuusylrania. Now lurk attempted tuch..
cita!ge, and what has been the result ? Let
the blackened walls of churches, orphan asy
lums, private residences and business marts of
New York city answer. Let the wail of the or
phan and the sobs of the widow answer. In Ntw
York, the direct results of a change in the
State Government, were assassination, arson
and theft—and added to these was also the
constant fear of the great business interests of
the State, that the State authorities would, by
some rash or partizan act, involve the people
of New York in conflict with the national
•utborities which would surely b'ing dishonor
f nut destruction to all concerned. What oc
_tutred in N,w York, after the accession of
S-,} moor to power, would also occur in Peon
3ylvania, should the calamity of a Woodward
ministration be inflicted upon the people. We
would have violence and riot here, arson
and assassinations would become as common as
I they were in New York, because acting under
the same inspiration of sympathy for treason.
which induced Seymour-to wink at the excesses
of a band of ronians, Woodward would emulate
the same' example, and the same scenes of riot
which disgraced and appalled New York, would
blacken the fair fame and outrage the noble,
humanity of Pennsylvania.. We cannot, there
fore,'afford to Make'the experiment of a change
I in the State ekoverrirnent.
Besides the reasons already given., there are,
others forbidding a change in the State Govern
men 'equally weighty and forcible. .Gov.
Curtin thoroughly understands. the organize ;
tion of the troops contributed by Pennsylvania
to assist in crashing the rebellion. That rebel
lion, under the wise.policy of the National Ad
ministration, and, the alacrity with which that
policy has been sustained by Pennsylvania and
other loyal States, cannot be maintained three
years longer, nay, will be crushed out of exist
ence, provided the vigor which is now directed
against it is notabated, and.provided also that
the policy for its extinction, is not abandoned.
That vigor .and policy can only be secured by
keeping those in power who are pledged to the
support and the enforcement of both. If the
people of Pennsylvania - decide to elect Wood
ward, they of course decide to organize
an opposition, not against the rebellion, but
against those who are engaged, perilling life and
limb, in its suppression. if they decide to elect
Woodward, they take the first steps in a move
ment to recognize the confederacy and repudi
ate the Union, with the repudiation, also, of all
the debts incurred in the efforts for its defence
and preservation. If they decide to elect
WOodward, they , conclude to abandon the
troops in the field, unfed, unclothed, unarmed
and undirected, to the furious assaults of the
enemy, because the man who could assist In the
di-franchisement of his fellow-citizens, fighting
'o defend ilia country, would also lend his aid,
'if in power, to defeat and disgrace such soldiers.-
with such results Mooring *ham in. Um faa.,+l...
people of Pennsylvania will surely not attempt
the experiment of a change in the • State Gov
ernment. The Union does not more entirely
depend for its strength on the success of our
Irmies, than those armies depend upon the tri
grophant election of Andrew IG. Curtin, for
victory. This is a fact which every man.should
seriously ponder.

Daniel O'Connell's Famous Letter to the
Irish Repeal Association of Cincinnati.
[CONCLUDED.
You say that thus Ahulitionhes aro fanatics
and bigots, and especially entertain a virulent
hatred and unchristian zeal against Catholic ty
and the Irish. We do not mean to deny, nor
do we wish to conceal that there are amLngst
tae Abolitionists many wicked and calumniating
enemies of Catholicity and the Irish, especially
in that moat intolerant class— th-t Wesleyan
+ilethudis s ; but the best way to disarm them
of their ma ice is not by giving up to them the
nide or humanity, while you, yunrselv, s, take
tne aids of slave, y. But, on the cr.ntrary, by
caking a superior station of Christian virtue io
ihe cacti° of benevolence and charity, and in
zeal fur the freedom of all mankind.
We aLh we could burn into your soul the
turpitude attached to the Irish in America by
Lord Murpeth's charge. Recollect that it re
flects dishonor not oaty upon you:bat upon the
land of your birth. Tame is but one way of
effacing such disgrace, and that is by becoming
the most kindly toward the solored population,
and the most energetic in working out of de
tail, as well as in general principle, the amelio
ration of the state of the miserable bondsmen.
You tell us, indeed, that many clergymen,
and especially the Catholic clergy, are ranged
on the side of the slaveholders. We do not be
lieve your accusation.
The Catholic clergy may endure; - but they
assurtdly do not encourage the slaveowners.
We have, indeed, heard it said that some Cath
olic clergymen have slaves of their own ; but,
it is added, and we are assured posititrely, that
no Irish Catholic clergyman is a slaveowner.
At all events, every Catholic knoWs how die
ducey slaveholding, and especially slave trad
ing, is condemned by the Catholic Church. That
most eminent man; his Holiness the present'
Pope, has, 'by an Allocution published through
out the world" condemned all dealing and traffio
in slaves. Nothing can be more distinct nor
more•powerful than the Pope's denunciation of
that most abominable grime. Yet it subsists in
a"more abominable form than his Holiness
oould possible describe, in the traffic which still
exists in the sale of slaves, from one State in
America to another. . What, then, are yrd
think of you, Irish Catholics, who stead us an,
elaborate vindication of Slavery without the:
slightest censure of that hateful crime!' a crime
Which the Pope has so completely condemed--
namely, the diabolical raising of-slaves for sale,
and selling them to other States.
If you be Catholics, you should devote your
time and best exeriions to working out the
pious intentions of his Holiness. Yet you pre
fer—Oh, sorrow and shame !—to volunteer your
Vindication of everything that belongs to the
guilt of slavery.
If you be Christian at all, recollect that sla
very is opposed to the first, the highest, and the
greatest principle; of Christianity, which teach
us "to love the great and' good God above all
things whatsoever;" -and the next, to " love
our fellow-man, as oui salve';" which commands
.us "to do untoothers as we would be done by."
kea° sacred principlesare.inconsistent with the
horrors and crimes ot slavery ; sacred principles
which have already banished domestic bondage
from civiliied Europe, and which will also, in
God's own good time, banish it from America,

be said that your feelings are made 0 obtuse
by the air of America that you mink feel as

—this plain truth, that one man oarbot have

There-is One consolation still amid p'he pul

scorn the paltry advocates of 'slavity—who
will show that the Irish heart is in Anodes as

: We -. conclude. The spirit of - Danocaatic
liberty is defiled by the continuance of'negro

talking of liberty and practising tyranny in its

utterly indefensible.
Once again—and for the last time—we

several regiments of Mississippi and Texan
troops, and Stuart's cavalry. The Mississippians
and Texans were very much dissatisfied, and
started to leave for home, when they were at
tacked by Stuart's cavalry, and compelled to
return to duty. He represents Lee's army as
almost in open mutiny, owing to-the gloomy
aspect of alfalre in the confederacy 'since the
fall of Vicksburg and Port Hudson, and that it
Is with difficulty kept together. Tne rebels
were deserting in large numbers, and he says
the North mountains are fail of deserters from
