The Way We Spoil Our Generale.
Indulgence spoils children, and flattery Ms
ruined many a good man. When the war to
crush rebellion began to present the immense
proportions which it has since assumed, the
American people seemed to lose sight of the
great object of the struggle, in their anxiety to
possess a hero. Every newspaper had its beau
ideal of a soldier. Every parish claimed to have
given birth to the man for the times, and each
Commonwealth that was loyal, claimed that it
either recruited and sent Into the field in sup
port of the National cause, more men and
better men than its sister States. This made
hero worship a species of insanity with the
people. Men were scarcely appointed to c=-
mend, before their brows were encircled with
wreaths which they never earned. Merchants'
clerks, strutting for the first time in a lieuten
ant's uniform, became swollen with importance
before the dust of a battle field bad soiled the
lustre of their brass buttons. Politicians who
never beheld the gleam of a weapon as it.was
wielded in fight, suddenly became self-endowed
with the mighty faculty of command. Such
as these sprung, not from the brain of Jove,
panoplied and equipped for battle, but from
every kcal interest, from every dirty little
clique, or from the preference of every de
signing politician who had power to elevate a
favorite. These were puffed and inflated,
advertised and elevated, until men rose from
lieutenancy to become generals, faster than
intelligent, patient citizens, who had taken
their places voluntarily in the ranks, could
acquire a knowledge of the discipline or the
secret of obedience to a command. Officers Who
had never handled more than a hundred sol
diers, whose knowledge of the art of war did
not extend beyond an acquintance with the
manual of arms, were placed in positions which
the oldest soldiers in the world only reached
after patient study, indomitable struggles and
bloody fighting. The friends of men thus eleva
ted became perfectly insane-on the subject of the
merits of their favorites. Armies melted away
before the gaze of the country without
having achieved a single practical result
for the cause of the Nation. Yet the
Government, which was always held resPonsi
ble for the most minute detail of our military
operatiocs, was censured far even attempting
to interfere with incleeidual officers in com
mand. When an officer was or is removed,
however palpable his crimes and notorious, his
inability, his friends at once raise the cry that
he fell a victim to the jealousy cf those above
him in command, or he was sacrificed to appease
the malice of some member of the Administra
tion. The folly of such charges renders them
too ridiculous for refutation. The Administra
tion has been forced to place men in power by
the hue and cry of politicians of all parties, but
we question seriously whether any man in a
military command has yet been removed on
'any other grounds but those of incompetency,
uncfficer-like conduct, or a notorious violation
of orders.
The idea of holding the Administration re
sponsible for all our military operations, of in
sisting that it must give an account for the
loss of men, the defeat of armies and 'the ex
penditure of money, and at the same time not
6
yield to it the right of selecting its own agents
' to execute its orders and carry out its plans, is a
most ridiculous position to assume. Abraham
Lincoln is as anxious to end this war as any man
is who carries a musket and stands in the ranks
of the Federal army. The President and all hi§
Cabinet have a like interest in the triumpir of
our cause with every citizen in the land. Nay,
their interest should be greater, because their
iesponsibility is larger. They are at the head
of affairs, and necessarily must become ac
quainted with all their details. Certainly such
men are more competent to judge of the merits of
officers,the necessitylor change in command, the
adoption or rejection of policies, than are those
whose business it is to make up the current news
of the day, write an editorial, conduct a finan
cial speculation, superintend a manufactory or
sell a web of calico, More mischief has been
done by the captious opposition to those in
authority, than the country has suffered kiln
any other equal influence. It le an indulgence
amounting to an intemperance oa the part of
the people. It has embarrassed the Adtnints
tration most seriously, and more than once
put the Government in a peril always satisfao
tory to its armed rebel enemies. Good men
should discountenance such fault-tinding.—
Loyal men should confront and denounce those
who indulge. in the practice. Unless this is
done we will be coestantl-y catifusion, - "im

embarrassing if not ultintate
defeat. -
Dn. Cuaw.trr, the efficient and able head of
the State Lunatic Asylum, was most basely as•
sailed and as wilfully misrepteeented a fow days
since by the Tory Cryan. The allegation of
.the
Crgan sought to create the impression . that Dr.
Curwen had interfered with the franchises of the
employees in the Asylurn, and that he had
threatened to diacharge any one under his con
trol who did not vote for Gov. Curtin and the
entire Union ticket. We have been assured by
parties who are employed at the Asylum; and
who voted for Woodward, that no such . threat
was ever made to them by Dr. C., but that on
the contrary the Doctor had furnished the names
of his employees to persons engaged for both
parties, in making a census of the county' to
ascertain its vote, and that in furnishing these
moms, Dr. Curwen gay,: Democrats and llepub
licans, and that he even went so far as. to: get
one man :a sensed, without knowing for whom
ir would vote. ,
—We make this statement to satisfy the-em
ployees of the Asylum, who feel indignant that
they should have been placed' in so mean a po
sition before the public. Bat .Dr. Curwen needs
no defence, either in this community or where
ever he is known personally _ and professionally
Ells high integrity, proud hither and generous
disposition would spurn to be guilty. of an act
as mean as that attribUted to him.by the Iliry

Election Frond's
It Is now admitted by decent men in the
copperhead orpaniz tions, that the fraud.: com
mitted to secure the election of Woodward,
were of the most stupendous character. Money,
threats, oathsand colerlizatiou were all used to
secure the overthrow of the Government. In
that strong - hold of copperheadism, Ilerks county,
the vote for Woodward at once proves the ex
tent of Atte frauds committed. Every election
poll in Perks county was in the hands of the
copperheads. With this advantage the votes
of loyal men, the votes of soldiers, and the vote
of every man not known to be favorable to the
election of Woodward, were rejected, whenever
a plea could be created in objection. The order
of the Knights of the Golden , Cercle selected the election
officers for Berke county, AND SWORE THEM TO LEAVE
NO EXPORT METED TO PROMOTE THE OBJECTS OF
Tan Cram The vote in Barks county shows,
conclusively, that the "r offieers thus selected
andftworn, were faithful to that oath, while
they perjured themselves on oaths to conduct
the election fairly. In what is called the Tenth
Legion—in Lehigh, Northampton, Wayne, Car
bon, Monroe and Pike, the vote of the copper
heads was immense. To what they gained from
the fact - that so many loyal men were absent
from their localities in the army, in proportion
to those belonging to the'copperhead organiza
tion, they added greatly by the colonization of
voters from the State of New York. In those
counties the dough-faced Democracy adopted
the same game which the border ruffians played
in Kansas. They imported voters ! New York
furnished any number of voters to swell the
majorities in the Tenth Legion. At the same
time, also, the land owners and landlords in
the localities referred to, (the majority of whom
are Copperheads) used all sorts of threats to
intimidate their tenants Into voting for Wood
ward. When threats' failed, money and oaths
were brought into requiktion, so that we are
justified •in attributing the largo vote whioh
Woodward received in the Tenth Legion, to the
wort and most desperate frauds ever pe.petra
ted by any set of unbung scoundrels in the
world.
—Had it not been for the frauds thus perpe
trated all over the Commonwealth, wherever
the copperheads had the control of the elec
tions—had it not been for the mean conduct of
copperhead assessors, the majority of Andrew
G. Curtin, instead of being a little less than
sixteen, would have been largely over fifty
thousand votes! The calm judgment and
the stern patriotism, with the splendid contest
which Curtin made personally, alone save.
Pennsylvania from being prostrated to eat dirt
at the feet of the slavcholding conspirators.
Copperhead Excuses for Defeat.
One of the apologies which the copperhead
leaders offer their allies in treason now in arms
In the South, for the defeat of Woodward, is,
that the men who held the stcck of, with' the
soldiers who are fighting for, the Goverirment,
voted fur Curtin. This apology reduoed to plain
common sense means that the friends of the
Government supported Curtin and hence Wood
ward was defeated. So far, the, copperheads are
right, and we are perfectly willing that they
should have as an excuse for their defeat, that
the friends of the Government, the friends of
civil and religions liberty, the friends of law
and order, voted for Andrew G. Curtin. Nay,
let es go even further in this matter, and admit
what the copperheads desire to present in Such
an unfavorable aspect, 'that those who have an
interest in the Government, thosewho hold its
stock, voted for Andrew G. Curtin. The fact of
men who invested their material wealth to af
ford the Government means of carrying on a
war to preserve its prestige and powers, voting
for Gov. Curtin; -is the best evidence of the
patriotism and trustworthiness of the man.
It showeconalusively, that 'Andrew: G.; Cantle
is identified with the integrity as well was the
stability of the National Government. It shows
that on his election deiended the safety of the
Union, and the sanctity and force of the Gov
ernment. And while it proves that those who
have an interest in the Government, voted for
Curtin, we are led to infer from the apology of the
copperheads,that those who had no interest in the
Government, voted for Wood ward. So far as the
leaders of the copperhead organization are con
cerned, this is certainly true. Such men as Wood
ward, Bill Reed, Buchanan, Bigler, and tho des
peradoes who do their bidding, have no interest
In a free Government Bat the poor duper; who,
follow theleading of these men and their agents,
are the people who have an interest. The labor
which James Baohanan declared was jeetlY re
quited when it received'ten cents for a day's
work, has an interest in, this Government The
freemen whom Bigler, while he was in' the
United States Senate, soughteto degrade before
the slave power by means of the Kansas frauds,
, have also an interest in the Government. 'When
tese get their eyes open, they will see how
meanly they have been deceived by the men
who are apologizing to the traitors for the de
feat of the copPerhead faction in Pennsylvania.
It 13 the interest, in fact, of all men, except the
copperhead leaders, to support the govern
ment.
An. Emancipation Convention from the
Slave States.
The Missouri Democrat publishes a call signed
by a numier of the leading emancipationists of
that State, and addressed "To the. Friends of
Freedom in the Slaveholding States,!' propotking
a convention to meet at Lonieville;lCy.,'On- (he
Bth of January, 1864. - The call is timed . upon
the truthful assumption that there can, he no
permanent peace or security to the country, so
long as the institution upon which the rebellion
is predicated, and from which it rierives sup
port, maintains its influence and corrupting
power in the Government.
This call ccsues.at exactly the right time,:and
will bs hailed with satisfaction by every loyal
man in the land. It is a . move in the right di
rection, commencing in exactly the right quar
ter; for even the friends of slavery, while prac
tically giving, their suppott to the laws and in
tolerant sentiment which has been an effectual
barrier to all discussion on the anbjecti)f :the
institution of slavery in the slaVe. State?, :and
while denouncing "abolitionism" iu unmea-:
slued terms, have, in theory at least, profeised
to acknowledge the Oght of alaveholdiirs and
the citizens of slave States to canvass the subject
of emancipation. Let loyal men of the South
assert their right now in practice. -
We reg.ad this call as one of the 'moat im
portant steps that has been taken towalds the
restoration'of permanent peace ard the redemp
t icn of the South. We shall give it publication
in a day or two. ,

DEN KELM?, AND STAFF AT WASHINGTON
The presence of Gen. Ideade and staff here
to-day filled the city with the rumor that he
had been relieved of his command.
There is no change in the military condition
to-day at the front. -Engineers era repairing
the damage done to the railroad by the rebels
on their retreat
AcCounts from Aire 'Army of the Potomac,.
received to-night, say:
"It has been - ascertained that none of the
rebel infantry_were engaged with Geo. Kilpat
rick's cavalry, near B'uckland Mille, on Mon
day last.
A brigade of rebel sharpshooters dismounted
and partially deluded our cavalry Into the be
lief that they were attacked by infantry.
Gen. Lee's army, with the exception of Gen.
Stuart's cavalry, crossed the Rappahannock on
Monday at Rappahannock Station.
Gen. Stuart fell back on the rider on Tuesday,
not stopping in Warrenton, through which he
passed, although he admitted that his men had
not enjoyed a meal for twenty-four hours.
Tire-officers of-Gen. Lee's - army stated that
their rapid retreat vras caused by a destitution
of provisions. - Ilie'bridge over the Rapidan.
had been carried away by the rise in the river,
caused by thereto= of Thursday night, and
Gen. Lee laid a pontoon bridge, over. which he
crossed his army - to tbe south side of the river.
It is believed that there is no considerable rebel
force now north'of the Rapidan, unless it be
portions of General Stuart's cavalry, with his
artillery.
It was currently rumored by rebel officers
that General Lee, having driven General Meade
back toward Washington, and destroyed a por
tion of the - OTatrge and Alexandria railroad,
that either Gen.- Hill's or Gen. Ewell's corps
would how: brilinmediately dispatched to the'
'assistance of—Gen. Bragg. This report is
strengthened by previous rumors that one -of
Geese corps was about to start thither before
the late movement began.
- The rebel newspapers say that Gen. Lee cap
tured ten thousand of our troops, a full battery
and a large number of:wagons during hie" plate
campaign. It sufficient to remark in answer
to this, thrit the offibial re Forts contradict this
statement. The Warrenton railroad has not
been disturbed by the enemy. We now hold
the country east of the Rappahannock. There
are no signs of a battle.
