Visiting the Lodges of the Knights of the
Golden Circle.
We have it from good authority, no less than
a Democrat who voted for Foster at the last
but who will vote for Curtin at this Guberna
torial election, that Woodward, the copperhead
candidata for Governor, and that charlatan in
politics, J. Glancy Jones, were traveling
through Barks and Lebanon counties within a
few days past, actually visiting the different
lodges of the Knights of the Golden Circle. At
unseemingly hours of the night, in localities at
once suspicious and unfrequented, the vehicle
containing Woodward and Jones was frequent
ly seen by our informant. lien who are known
to belong to the Knights of the Golden Circle,
had asserted having seen Woodward and Jones
at times when entire neighborhoods, (except
the Knights aforesaid) were ignorant of their
presence. From all the statements of our in
formant, and from the character of the locali
ties in question, we are well convinced that
Woodward was introduced Into the conclaves
of the Knights of the Golden Circle, during his
peregrinations in the localities named, and that
his object was to ascertain his strength and
probable chances of success at the election in
October. And we are satisfied also, that
both these charlatans reported the Progress
they had made in Berke and Lebanon coun
ties, to their fellow Knights at the meeting
in Lancaster yesterday. Indeed Woodward was
engaged in a long private interviesv with Buch
anan, the object of which was doubtless to give
the moat direct information to one of the
correspondents of Jeff Davis, and'thus, through
Buchanan, communicate to - the chief Knight of
the Gulden Circle, Jeff Davie, the result of hie
(Weodward's) observation. We leave the
honest loyal men of the State to contemplate
these facts, and form their own conclusions
concerning such a candidate for 'the chief Ex
ecutive office of a great and 1401
,State.
Singular and
A few months since, our venerable'friend, ex-
Governor David R Porter, stood on the steps
of the capitol of Pennsylvania, where, with
trembling hands turned to Heaven, with his
dim eyes (now dimmed only by the thick grow
ing darkness of age, but which once shone with
the lustre of a vigorous nature and a noble in
tellect) swimming in tears and his white hair
streaming in the .wind, be abjured his fellow
citizens to be true to the Union, to lie luta to
the Government, and to be active in all things to
crush rebellion. Now, we bear of him as hav
ing been in Lancaster yesterday, where he sat
'down to counsel with those who are openly
plotting against the Union and the Govern
ment, and where he presided over a meeting at
which bitter words of treason were audaciously
and boldly speken. We have always enter
tained a kind personal feeling for ex-Governor
Porter, and of late our columns have been at
the service of himself and his kinched when
he has complained that sheets which advocate
the very heresy he now endorses had refused
to do him justice. Doubtless •he will now get
justice from such as these—while we will be left
to contemplate with sorrow and regret the pas
sions and the prejudices which thus work their
influences on those whose better nature should
admonish them to preparation for a transition
hence to scenes where treason nor its approval
are not recognized or admitted ! ThOsE; who
have been as liberally treated as the Porters, by
this great Government, should be the last to
join hands with its enemies, with the allies of
its sworn destroyers. Doubtless the j spectacle
which the ex-Governor. presented at the head of
the Lancaster fizzle will be one which his many
personal friends in that and other localities,
will remember with deep humiliation.
SITTLSIONT OF TUE DRAFT ACCOUNTS or 1862.
.
The accounts for enrollment and draft of 1862,
for the Western District of Pennsylvania., have
been transmitted by the War Department to
Capt. Dodge, disbursing officer in this city, who
is prepared to pay them'when tho requirements_
of the War Department have been;complied
with In every cage tilt. number of :llamas en
rolled in each county and township ; , the num
ber of men drafted, and number delivered at
the camps of rendezvous, will be iv/tared. The
dates between which a service was rendered are
particularly necessary. Sub-vouchers for every
expenditure must be produced.
A Brave Blow at Troason.—The Writ of
Habeas Corpus.
It is' a reuralkeble fact , liar every bow
,trick at tltc rtb,l fen--we mean (fi env,:
blow.,—has been pronounced an act of uncen
etitutionality, or.clear violation of the law, by
the l t adere of the Demccretic party. These
leaders argue as if, in this war, the struggles of
the Government to overcome rebellion should
be directed with a view to conciliate and not
crush the conspiracy. It is argued that the
traitors, while they are in arms against the
Authority c f the National Government, and
with their oaths cf repudiation recorded against
the Constitiition, are still entitled to all the
protection of that Government, and have
claims to the franchises conferred by the Con
stitution, the same as any loyal man in the
land. The same class of men, these came De
mccratic leaders, now oppose the proclamation
of the President suspending the writ of habeas
corpus. That proclamation is not aimed at loyal
men. It is not designed to interfete with a
single Constitutional right of the citizen. It
does not deprive the loyal man of his liberty.
It does not interfere with any legitimate busi
ness. It attempts to impose restrictions on no
man while in the advocacy of any right princi
ple. It forces no creed on the unwilling. It
asks, simply, obedience to the law; a respect for
the means devised to secure the operations of
that law. Those who refuse this are, of course,
traitors. The man who opposes any practical
measure for the arrest and conviction of a trai
tor, is to all intents and purposes, a traitor
himself. He cannot be regarded in any other
light. To recognize him as loyal would be
offering a premium for treason. To tolerate him
In hie actions of oppositiou would WI to increase
the public peril, and insure the general doom if '
destruction. Viewed in this light, all good
men, all true and loyal men, will rejoice that
the President has taken a step forward—a step
at once the proof of his determination to ex
haust all the means and all the power at his
command to rescue the land from rebellion.
—Within a year past the wholesale release
of soldiers and conscripts by the action of the
writ of habeas corpus, was one of the most serious
difficulties with which those who lead our
armies had to contend. .lhe evils growing
l out of this unwarranted interference had reach
ed the most alarming proportions. Officers of
the army assure us that the statistics in thie
connection would surprise and alarm all who
have a just regard for the efficiency of our fight
ing forces. It would startle the loyal men at
the North to have thus demonstrated to them
the fact that while devoted men were honestly
engaged in keeping our armies up to their
maximum strength by enlistment and con
scription, organized parties of diligent traitors
were busily at work depleting the ranks by the
action of the habeas corpus, on pleas at once
frivolous and absurd, but which were sufficient
to stimulate the action of judical officers whose
entire prejudices and convictions were against
the Government. This sigtem bad either tribe
broken up, or our armies were destined to melt
from the control of their leaders, before battles
had been fought or victories won, and in time,
too, to afford our foes the opportunity_to visit
such of our forces as were kept under ATMS
with eirerwhelming defeat. Hence, those who
desire to guard against such defeat, will sp•
prove the action of the President in issuing the
proclamation ordering the suspension of the
writ of habeas corpus. Those who desire to pave
the way for rebel success, will of course oppoie
that proclamation. This is the only position in
which we can view the action for and against
that, proclamation. '-- Loyal men will support AND'

The etrughle in which we are' now engaged,
and in which so much of vital importance to
the safety of the State and Nation is involved,
is one of vast detail. The battle will not be
fought en masse. Oar foes are averse to meeting
any open issue. They decline the discussion of
all questions relating`directly to the issues at

The Copperhead Fizzle in Lancaster City.
Accounts from Lsncaster, concerning the cop
perhead mass meeting advertised to have been
held in that city yesterday, all agree that tke
affair wis a grand fizzle. According to the
Lancaster Ezpress, after all the delegations had
been formed in procession, and after the line
bad moved off over the route fixed fur it to pass
over, a count was made at two points, at one
of which it was ascertained that the men and
boys in line amounted to 797, and at another
they numbered only 760 ! The llrpress, alluding
to the meeting, thus describes its failure:
A GRAND FNZLR.-If the Copperhead demon
stration to day had been intended only as a
county meeting, it would have been a small
affair compared with those of the old Whig and
the lin ion parties which we have been accustomed
to see in this county; but when we remember
that it was called as "a State Mass Ratification
Meeting to endorse the nomination of Woodward
and Lowrie," and that extraordinary efforts were
made to bring opt the old Democratic masses, the
demonstration appears in the light of a grand
fizzle—a miserable failure. It is a failure in
numbers and enthusiasm, as well as in the at 7
tendance of the speakers, very few of the "big
guns" promised being here. The meeting at
Christiana, where true Democrats are discussing
the issues of the day, completely overshadows
this State convocation. The more sagacious
leaders are much dispirited, and one of them
was heard to say that "at this rate Curtin will
be elected by forty thousand majority." The
late elections in California and Maine have
dampened their arddr, and they feel that the
great uprising which carrid those States for the
'Union has extended. to Ohio and Pennsylvania.
And in this they feel right.:::
The Lancaster Inquirer, alluding to the arrival
of the "Harrisburg delegation," says that when
the copperheads of Harrisburg reached the de
lint, in that city, they were surprised to see an
immense concourse of Union men present, who
were preparing to leave for Christiana, where
,royal Democrats were to speak to loyal men in
favor of sustaining the Government in its efforts
to crush rebellion. •

Assertions for Treaton and His Escapes for Per

Correspondence of the Telegraph.]
Lmw.t.eauno, Sept. 15, 1863.
In common with the people of other portions
of this Congressional District, I imagine that
the readers of the Tarscurent in the vicinity of
the State Capital will be interested in anything
done or said by the Honorable General William
Henry Miller, our Congressman elect. Of course
it is known that William Henry is out on an
electioneering tour as it is not probable that
an individual of his proportions could absent
himself from any locdity without creating a
most serious and "aching void." Daring his
peregrinations on this tour, William Henry
alighted (I write alighted, because William Hen
ry always soars) in, the beautiful borough of
Lewisburg, whether by invitation or by acci
dent, his friends alone can ex - plain. Perpara
tions having been made,the distinguished orator
(the William Henry aforesaid) took the stand
and commenced a rehash of the stale abase of
the Government, which characterizes the
speeches of the copperhead traitors alike all
over the country. His;assaults upon the Presi
dent were those of a blackguard and a coward,
at once base lies and foul slanders. He claimed
that the election of Woodward would appal
and terrify the National Government more com
pletely than any victory which Lee could
achieve—than any progress which his victorious
troops could make through the heart
of the North. He declared that no man
could be an AbolOrenist and a patriot ! •At
this infaimmirr expression Miller was called
a liar by half a dozen of our best citizens. At
different times during his speech Miller was
boldly denounced as a liar by Dr. Leaser, James
S. Marsh, Capt. O. C. Bhorkly, Capt. Blair and
others. I was sitting where I. mild look Miller
in the eyes, and 'as these brave citizens openly
denounced him as a falsifier, the knees of our
Congressman 'Vegan to smite each other, the
sweat stocod. 'open his forehead, and in- all his
appearance he exhibited a'coward's aspect. He
quailed before - the indignant rage of men
aroused to passion by his own foul attacks upon
the Government, and in the midst of the excite
ment, while a Crowd was waiting at thedoor for
Miller, for his reception with a rail, his friends
conveyed him from the- rear of the building
through a window, and thus succeeded in
making good his escape.
Of course I cannot repoit the speech of Mil
ler verbatim. But :: I, can, write yon that it was
the meanest, fouleit, falsest, and most coward
ly utterance of slander.against the government
that ever fell from.the lips of a coward and a
traitor. As such, it has done our cause im
mense good. It has made at least fifty votes

Yesterday the rebels, who seem in doubt
concerning the strength and sincerity of the

but two regiments of our cavalry, armed with
revolving rifles, dismounted and drove them
