- Ttur ORGAN
The above is a specimen of the petty, con
temptible, false and C3WilTdly means which
the clique that now mtntrol the Tory Orgin
have adopted to elect George W. Woodward.
We do not notice these persoual at ticks on fiLtv
Cuitin, either to answer o. refute theft calum
nies. We merely draw attention to them, to
afford our readers the opportunity of judging
how base a candidate must be, and how hope
less a cause is, when the Mends of Woodward
resort to such means to secure his election.—
.nd we now warn the tory-sympathizers with
treason, who daily indulge in these attacks on
lov. Curtin, that a repetition of similar as
4aults will provoke revelations in reference to
Woodward, which for his sake and the decency
that should distinguish an important political
campaign, we would rather let slumber on the
record where they can do nothing more than
call a blush to the cheeks of the professional
men under whrse observation they daily come,
at the thought that the world contains those
who are so lost to thefiner feelings and generous
impulses of an exhaited humanity.
There never was an Executive officer at the
head of the State Government, who, as has
Governor Carttin, devoted himself with equal
zeal, energy and industry to the furtherance of
the interests of the Commonwealth. There,
never was an administration in Pennsylvania,
on which such important duties devolved; as(
have been devolving upon the administration
of State affairs for the past three yews Its
duties have been stupendous—its labors her-I
.:ulean A. great crisis created new demafads l
upon its sagacity, wisdom and btatesmanship.
A. bloody rebellion summoned it to assume re-'
ebonsibilities of the gravest importance, re-i
iponsibilities which embraced within their du=
ties the arming of immense bodies of troops, the
raising of large sums of money, the curtailing,
of ordinary expenses, the economizing of ie
sources, the care of sick and wounded soldiers, :
the reduction of taxation, the defence of terri
tory from invasion, the support of the national
authority, and, the vindication of law and or
der. Ali these duties were discharged by one
man. They were met in the spirit of states.;
mansbip and patriotic- liberality. In their so- .
coinpli:thment, the right Of no citizens were
neglected—and yet we have a journal which
strains its ill-assorted fund of learning to em
barrass the very government which Andrew G
Curtin now represmts—we have this journa
now attempting to create the impression the
Gov. Curtin neglected his duty! Was ever
effrontery more unblushing or impertinent !
Andrew G. Curtin has nothing to fear from
the most searching scrutiny of either his per
sonal or political character. If personarobar
actor were an issue in the campaign, our oppo
nents would indeed be in a woful condition of
want—and where political reputation is sought
to influence the contest, Justice Woodward le
left in a plight which must excite the oommia
eration and the pity even of those who are se
blindly wedded to party 'as to be induced. to
support him, because if any demagogue in the .
Commonwealth has "boxed the compass" of
politics.in the changes and the -vicissitudes Of
party, that man is George W. Woodward. But
'we fo7bear from personalities. Thus far our op
ponents have monopolised the business of libel
and personal detraction, a business which we
are determined to explode; if persisted in, by
such truths is will cover Woodward and his .
apologists with irretrievable disgrace. ,
Then, and Now.
When Jame Thichanau first began to yield
to the slave power, and when the just appre
hensions of far-seeingmen were being aroused as
to the result of the stupendous aggressions of
which the minions of,slavery were guilty daring
the Buchanan administration, the independent
jcurnallsts of the country began to point the
people to the danger which might result froth,
the demands of the tlave power, and warned
the imbecile President that he was urging the
nation to a vortex into which neither he nor
•
those associated with him 'in power; could pre- -
•
vent it (even if they desired to do so) from being
plunged. These warnings.. were
_.repulsed by
such sheets as the Tory Organ as unjust
cism; and the course of that sheet then and now,
may be judged by the following extract of an,
article which appeared in its editprial columns
of March 24, 1860: .
It is one of the 'greatest of the.eiils attribti
table to the influence of party spirit in our Valli:
tics, says the Evening Jourual, that no'act Utile
Government can be 'discussed with honest calf
dor and dealt with 'according to its simple,
merits. No mutter what is proposed, or , What
is done by an Administration, the "Opporlition"
Will see no good in it On the contrary its
whole business seems to be, to impute bad- me
tives to the President arid his advisers, to mis
represent the character and tendency of their
measures, and, thereby to bring. them into
contempt and disgrace with the people. This
course is pursued with 'Abe most unscrupulous
disregard of truth and justice. ludbcriminate
censure of those oho are in power for the time is
indulged by the demago,g ueSin °opens, and the
subservient presses in their interest, without
respect even for the,obvicus welfare and credit
of the nation. We have had countleskexamples
'of this abominable disposition among our poll-•
ticians, and the.latest instance of it is found in
the precipitate and ill-advised . condemnation
which the "Opposition" newspapers have - el,
pressed of the recent action of our naval forces
in the Gulf of Mexico. Withbut waiting to
learn the facts, and, indeed, with a secret wish
that they may be adverse to the, Administra
tion, which must be scandalized aid traduced'
at all events, we find that.portion of the press
that is politically hostile to the Governmei,
assaillsg it in a matter in which it not only may
be fairly presumed to have ad.(' wisely and
justly, but in which it le of the highestirnport
twee to the honer and' interest of the whole
country that the, conduct cf the Government'
should be , if possib •
le vindicated and sustained
at home. .
According to the above, it was : wrong for an
independent press , to review Abe acts of an
administration which wag -actively preparing
then to plunge the country into a sanguinary
conflict, the bloody effects of which are now
be seen in every State of the Union. ~.It was
wrong for the true Mende 'of 'freedom and the
Union to point to the efloits of the slayePower,;
I then conspiring to precipitate the country into,
' the war in which we are now• involved:: alb
this wea wrong :thetc l !'beccitiet:tfiF . 9 oriMenetrt
- 400141 : 4 41 - -if P 9-4 0 1 - Findkaff l l4 augt`wiied ad',
home." Such was the borrowed language of the
Tory Oigan nearly four years ago. Bat what is
its L torso w ? the Government Is engaged
rushing a conspiracy to which that sheet
gave counsel and encouragement. The nation
is at war for the defence of its life. The loyal
States are in a death struggle to Sustain the
Government, and yet the Tory Organ is con
stantly engaged In tnisrepreeentive that Gov
ernmt nr, to damage its position abroad, while
as basely maligns is representatives that it
may drfeat its purposes of self-preservation at
home. This is the consistency of modern De
mocracy. What the Tory Organ here so Utterly
applies to the independent press of the nation,
is now most applicable to llself and the organs
of its ilk ; and thus out of their own months
are these traitors convictLd and condemned.
A Noble Speech from a Union Democrat
The Republican Convention of Wisconsin
nominated Lucius Fairchild, of the Iron brig
ade, who has led the old Second Wisconsin
through many a storm of shot and shell, and
lost an arm at Gettysburg, as Secretary cf State.
In accepting the nomination he said : -
I have no political aspirations, I ask no office.
My heart is in the army. And my heart is also
in that cause at home which will help the army.
I do not, I cannot agree with the DAnocrets
with whoml have always acted upon the issues
of the day ; and I say 3 it' with sorrow, because
it cuts me looselor the time from all my politi
cal associates, bat I - cannot believe they are
right now. I cannot believe any discourage.
went to the 'Government can;help to put down
rebellion, and not believing it; I cannot go with
them in support of any 'policy which is not in,
favor of the Administration. •
'Whether I like this Administration or not—
whether I like what it his done or not—l am
bound to support it, becanse under it we are to
live or die. nil-Country either lives or dies
in the next two "yews, and we cannot change
tlie Administration, unless we do it rebellion,
and that is what we' are trying to put down ---
Personally I would not turn over my hand for
any office in- the State. I entered 'the army
simply as a matter•bf duty; and my earnest
wish is to stay there. I have been told by some
friends that they thought it my duty to accept
this nomination as I am. I accept it as an in-,
valid and a cripple. Bat I accept it.
I accept it with the understanding that party
lines have been - kicked down and .we are. all
Union men. [Applause.] Ido not care whom
I train with or what their noddy is, provided
they are 'for putting down this rebellion in the
shortest - possible time. I accept.the nomina
tion. I accept it as a Union Democrat—as a
• Union man—supporting the. Government
through thick and thin, through everything.
That is the only platform'rhave in the world
The speech was received with cheers upon
cheers for the gallant Colima with the empty
sleeve and his braie comrades. •

A NOVEL SCENE IR ST. Louis.—A strange scene
was presented in St. Louis on Thursday last.—
Just as the merchants were closing their stores,
there marched down to the wharf four compa
nies of colored soldiers going to the field—three
hundred and thirty black men, in federal uni
forms, carrying federal muskets, under the fed
eral flag. marching to the music of Yankee
Doodle. Some of the timid ones of the city
had suggested that it would be safer to march
these troops from their barracksafter nightfali,
as, thus the , peace of, the city, would not be en
dangered. But the ffter in command did not
view the matter , in that light ; he thought the
open day Was as gOOde ''' as any to-march
loyal men through the i '' treete of a loyal c ity to
the defence of the nation ; and so, jest at sun-
Set, without any molestation whatever, he led
the first regiment of colored soldiers from Mis
souri through the streets of• ht. Louis. One
year ago this would have been impossible; but
Providence and the events He orders arestronger
than human prejudices, stronger even than hu
man. hates anti, spite of all _these, Freedom
goes march ing on, gathering new triumphs
with every advancing step. - .
A Baavn Max's Asswsa.—Gen. Butler, stop
ping over night in New Hampshire on his way
to the White Mountains, was now and then
intertupted by Copperheads. He said:
In two years we have seen three quarters of
a million of men raised. Before the sentence
NM completed, one of the Pierce Democrats
asked, in. a sneering air, "Where are they now?"
"Some of them," replied Gen. Batter with his
customary promiitnese, "lie sleeping, beneath
the sod; awl others are still . fightiogthe battles
of their country, While you remain here at home
aiding the cause of traitors."
In another portion of his speech (len. Butler
said:
.....
lEEE
• .....
yosa voltinteer?" a voice repled, "No."
"You, voted , for BreCkinridge," said a voice to
Gen. Butter, alluding to the last Democratic
National Convention. "Yes," said Butler,"
and if I wore so cowardly as you. I might be
tempted to deny it." Be then went on to show
to these New Hampshire partizans that one
might very properly vote for a man under cur
tain circumstances and - oppose that man under
certain other' circumstances. When Judas Li
cariot was a true followeirtif Master,lie was
no doubt a worthy example to be followed; but
he was not aware theta man to preserve his
consistency must continue to follow Judas after
he betrayed his Lord."
