The Effects of Copperhead Sympathy
with Treason. •
Every man in the land knows that if the
rebellion had been lett alone to confront the
Government, it would not, have hetet' one
year ; but thcse abroad, who have a deep re•
gard for the success of free government, cannot
understand why the loyal States have not
already succeeded in putting, down the rebel
lion. It is not the superior valor of the South
that has protracted the war, althangh the raga
muffins who have imbrued they . ,hands in the
bi ,g
blood of freemen, impiously imagine)
.t. they,
ALONE, have been conducting theliter . must
the Government," when the fact is.7l tit the
osi t
Government has received its worst strokes ip
the secret allies of treason in the loyal St
Thus, the Democratic leaders, such men as Jus
tice Woodward, Frank Hughes, Justice Lowrie,
William B. Reed, Buchanan, Bigler and . the
lesser leaders of the cliques which compose the
copperhead , organization, have succeeded in
embarrassing and damaging the people and the
Government, to an extent which will never be
frilly estimated, because this injury assumes so
many different phases, and impairs so many
interests, that time alone must develops its full
effects. At present, we will allude to only one
of these effects of Democratic opposition to the
law, which is costing the people of the country
millions. of
.dollars. . •
In the mining and manufacturing districts
one of the main influences wielded to aroma
the anger of the masses against the vigor of the
Government, relates to the conscription law.
In the mining districts, particularly, the hard
ships of the draft are so magnified as to induce
the people to resist the law. To make this re
sistance more effective (as the misguided miner
imagines) combinations among the workmen
are formed, and these in turn are used by the
hotheaded of the miners to carry on strikes,
to destroy property, to stop operations at the
minis, and thus create confusion, in business,
the inflation of prices, and a cessation of labor.
We have had exhibitions of these proceedings
time after time. Frank Hughes, in Schuylkill
county, is even now engaged in carrying out
this same game, of arousing the prejudices and
the passions of the ignorant, and thus suffering
such as these to run off into riot, arson and
assassination. The hsghprice of coal may be traced '
diredly to this influence. Tina PEOPLE OF PANNSYL
TAMA ARE PAYING "AMMONS OF DOLLARS IN EXOR
BITANT PRIORS OF COAL TO-DAY, AS THE BESIILT
OF COPPERHEAD OPPOSITION TO THE
WAR. And this is only on one' item. Think
of this, taxpayers and consul:nem
Who is Right—The geldier who Stipports
Or the Copperhead who thiposes the Re-
Elott!on of Andrew G. Choral' 1-
.
This is an' impcirtaut question. It is well
known, that every . General in the; Army. of the
Potomac: ardently derdies.the re-election of An
drew G. Curtin Governor of Pennsylvania. -In
this desire the officers of the army are joined by
the men Under theli command, so that the
fighting men of the Republic ale unanimously
in, favor of Curtin's re-election. We do not make
this statement OIL our own individual authority. I
Major General Meade, in a speech delivered in
"the ptesenee of the pennsylvarkia Reserve Corps,
emphatically declared thA'the re-election of
Andrew G. C.artin was. one of the essentials of
the success ofithii• armies of the Republic.—
While such is the preference of the soidier---
while the men who are willing to peril their lives
in the defence of the Government all desire the
re-election of Andrew G. Curtin, those who
have opposed-this._ war, who sympathize with
rebellion, and , who, like :Justice Woodward, are
willing to "LET Tay, Eotrrn Go ra rases, " are .,
.the pen who malign, oppose and traduce An
drew G. Curtin, with a view to defeat his elm
tiorrfor GOVER7IOI'. Which is right, of these two
partkie.t Is the soldier right, in Pieferring,Gov.
Curtin's re-election, or is the copperhead right,
in leaking his: defeat ? This is an important
questicin. `We leave, it with the people for
cision. -

MEE
Speaker of the Nest House of Re pregenta-
tke that many of ow
are rt juicing over the well established lad that
the next Congressional Housedß.spresmurices
-
will be in the control of the loyal element of
that body. Of course such a fact is sufficient
of itself to excite and elicit our mutual rejoic
ings and congratulations, as well as to prompt
the constituency of that majority to offer such
respectful suggestions concerning the organize.
tion of the House, as would render its labors most
effective for the Government. In importance
and influence, the proceedings of that House
will be immense for good or evil; and in older
to control them for good, a man of the very
ablest class, for ability as a legislator, experience
as a parliamentarian, and tried virtues as a pa
triot should be elected as Speaker. The presiding
officer of the next House of Representatives
must be a statesman of the largest scope—a
statesman of a calibre to command respect, not
alone in the position he occupies, but ;for the
wisdom, the ability, the inflexible will and im
partiality with which be adorns that position.
In the loyal ranks of the Union organizations'
all over the country, there are those who would
thus adorn such a position, but it is a question
whether there is among the Representatives to
the next Congress a man who combines all these
requtsites, because, unfortunately for the Inter
ests of every constituency, the ablest and purest
men of a community are rarely invested with
power or placed in positions of official trust and
influence.
So far as our own judgment is concerned, and
uttering merely a personal preference, we think
that the Pennsylvania delegation to represent
her in the next Congress, contains the man
most fitted to occupy the Speaker's chalrof that
House of Representatives. Of his ability, the
country has already had the most brilliant ex
hibitions. As a leader he has very few equals
and no superior in the loyal States. His par
liamentary experience is perhaps the latest of
any of those wbo w ill occupy seats in th 6 House;
and for his loyalty, the record of a life spent in
deeds of devotion to his country bears; ample
and glorious testimony. We allude, tfo Thad
deus Stevens. Unfortunately for the. whole
oonntry, we fear that - Mr. Stevens would reject
the offer of this position were it even made to
him by the unanimous Voice of this colleagues,
simply becase he is so strongly attached to his
constituents, and because he represents a dis
trict whoFe vast interests demand his
constant care and attention on the floor
of the House. But supposing that Mr.
Stevens would consent to obscure himself in
the Speaker's chair and loss the renown which
he would be certain to add to his already great
reputation by his labors in the acts of another
Congress, we believe that he is by all Oda the
ablest, the most experienced and influential
man elected to that House, and therefore the
best which a loyal majority could do in the
premises would be to elect Thaddeus. Stevens
Speaker. His election would assure patriots
that no wrong would be allowed to mar the
proceedings of the popular branch of Congress.
It would create confidence in. ,loyal men that
traitors would receive justice so far as legisla
tion could influence the dispensation of that
much abus:d (Frailty of a free government, and
In more ways than we can now enumerate, it
would be of vast benefit to the Government.

The Democracy and the Disfranchised
Soldier.
The gory Organ flusters under the conviction
that its efforts to disfranchise ail who wear the
uniform of a soldier, may bring their fruits and
their rewards sooner than those who indulge in
them desire. Hence this morning it endeavore
to crawl out of the odium it has earned in re
ference to the Act of Assembly of July 2d,
1883, which restrains the'appearance of soldiers
at election.polls. The object of the Tory Organ
in quoting that act, was to create the im
pression that by a statute of. Pennsylvariii, the
brave defenders of the Government had been
disfranchised. In its zeal for pasty, the .7bry
agan thus not only seeks to impair the civil
rights of the men who are willing to accept the
rigorous discipline of military service and peril
their lives in the defence of the country, but it
actually attempts to bring the. State into dis
grace by distorting her legislative enadtmenta
so as to place her in antagonism to the valor,
the patriotism and the loyalty of the petple.--
_
That the soldiers will be disfrinchhed; if the
leaders of the Copperhead Democracy can' ac
complish their end, is now a foregone conclu
sion. Justice Woodward decreed their disfran
chisement while abrent fighting • the battles of
the Uniou and the Constitution, and now the
Tory Organ '(indiScreetly) divulges the _game
which is to be attempted to disfranchisei every
soldier who may be at.home. It matters not
in•what garb he appears at the polls—vihether
he comes on crutches—whether he seeks to etz
ercise the franchise with his weundlystill
ning red with gore—whetber he come hlaFted
and blinded by the fire: of hattle—whetiter he
is limbless or whether he is in possesciod of all
hie limbs, itmatters not, because if he is: a sod.
dier, AND HAI VOUGHT VALIANTLY AGAINST THE
SLAVE HOLDERS' REBELLION, that at once, in the
ethics of the constitutional constructionof the
leaders of the* Democratic party, DECREES
HIS DISFRANCHISEMENT. The Tory t Organ
representicg the secret designs of those lead
ers, has declared this to be the object !of the
Copperheads,by quoting and misconstruing the
law on the subject. ,
The Accounts of Recruiting Officers
We have received several communications
and heard many complaints of late, concerning
the delay in-the adjustment of. the accounts of
officers who were engaged in the recruiting ser
vice, a year or two since, in Penneylin*. it
will bp . remembered that during the lest:Legis ,
'attire" a - law was passed, providing for the
liquidation of these claims: .: at: Libor
ized the; 3eard of Oki Mato adjs.% sigtheadconnts
attending,the recruiting service in queithm, but
it seems that there has been great delay in such
settlements, and that la the meantime many of
these claimants have been subjected .to great
loss and inconvenience. We are not:apprised
of the reason for this delay, -nor are wePwpared
to hold any department responsible for its long
continuance; but we must Miss, in justice to
the claimants, that these accounts ,should. be_
settled without further loss or embarrassment
t , . them. It is not right that this d , ss of claims

The Vicksburg Whig.
We alluded some days since to the effort of
Col F. Montgomery, late editor cf the Vicks
burg Whig, to resume the publication of that
journal. This morning we had the pleasure of
seeing and conversing with Col. Montgomery.
He is anxious to take part in the contest for
Governor in this State, and render a service
here which he gave the loyal cause in Connec
ticut, where he addressed the people during
the late contest in that State, with mmrh ef
fect. Col. Montgomery is a Democrat—voted
for Breckinridge, but never dreamed that the
object in bringing out that hypocrite and traitor
was to distract the Democratio party that trea
son might the more
, speedily triumph and
destroy the Government. He is now anxious
and ardent to make amends to his country for
that vote by lending his voice to its cause in
the hour of its peril. We trust , that the Union
State Central Committee will make arrange
ments by which,Col :iron tgomery way be enabled
to address the loyal masses of the State, and
particularly the loyal portion of the DeMocracy
who are resolvid to vote for Curtin and Agnew.
The President to Genernrarant.
The Wsshington Republican says-that when it
was officially known that Vicksburg had sur
rendered to the victorious legions of Gen. Grant
the President wrote the General a private letter
of acknowledgment and thanks for the "ines
timable service" he had rendered the country,
and with that characteristic frankness which
mita, bring a blush to the cheeks of the malign
ers of General Grant, who have attempted to
rob him of his laurels and place them upon the
brow of another, the President acknowledges
that General Grant' acted upon his own plans,
and not at the dictation of . any person. Below
is the letter of the President entire:
My Dear Genaral:—l do not remember that
you and I ever met personally. I write this
now as a grateful acknowledgment for the al
most inestimable service you have done the
country. I wish to say a word further. When
you first reached the vicinity of Vicksburg I
thought you should do what you finally did—
march the troops across the neck, run the bat
teries with the transports, and thus go bs'ow,
and I never had any faith, except a general
hope that you knew batter than I, that the
Yazoo Pass expedition and the like could suc
ceed. When 'you, got below and took Port
Gibson, Grand Gulf and vicinity, I thought
you should go down the river and join General
Banks, and when you turned northward, east
of the Big Black, I feared it was a mistake. I
now wish to make the personal acknowledgment
that you were right and I was wrong.
Yours, very truly, A. LINCOLN.
Major General Grant.
In August, 1861, Thomas H. Watts and Joe.
Gill Shorter were the, candidates for the office
of Governor of Alabama. There never was any
doubt aboutßhor ter's secession ideas, and hence
he was elected in the midst of the r.volutionary
excitement of the time; which swept everything
before it. In Thomas H. Watts there was not
the same confidence. He was originally a Union
Whig, and , led the Ball and Everett ticket in
Alabama. He was consequently defeatefl. Now
mark the change. The same men are candidate s
again. The contest has just taken klaca.—
Shorter is defeated, and Watte is elected by an
overwhelming majority. The result, as ascer
tained in fifty-two counties, is as follows:
Watts.....
Shorter..... ...
Here is thecleatest evidence of the most re
markable revolution in public sentiment which
ever took place. Shorter, ever since his election
in 1861, has continued a faithful, consistentaud
violent secessionist, true to . Jeff. Davis and the
Southeip econfederaoy.-. His recent earnest ad
dress to. the Legislature is a proof of his' zeal in
the,cause of the rebellion: fact he was re
garded on, all sides as an excellent partizan of
the, confederate President. and kis .eolministra-
tion.. On the other hand an impression has
gained; ground.that Notts ill a Union rap, and
certain it:ie, from comparing all the criticisms
in the Southern papers which have reached us,
he is less hostile.to the Union and reconstruc
tion than Shorter, and no doirbt he was i viected
on this ground.
