THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE FOE PIiES7DENT, -
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
HARRISBURG, PA
MONDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 8, EU
A Question of Veracity Between Senator
Clymer and the People
During the debate in the Senate, elicited by .
the factious course of the minority, in ob
structing the legislative business of that body,
the Copperhead Senators have not only in
dulged in language at once shameful and
unmanly, but it now begins to appear that
they have actually resorted to falsehood to
maintain their position. In the debate last
week, Senator Champneys charged Senator
Clymer with having declared, during the
campaign for Governor in 1863, that if Wood
ward were elected Governor of Pennsylvania,
Vallandigham of Ohio, they, in conjunction
with Seymour, of New York, and Parker, of
New Jersey, would recall their troops and thus
force a peace: This, it was charged, was the
spirit of Senator Clymer's speech, alleged to
hgve been delivered at Johnstown. But Sen
ator Clymer, during the conversation on the
floor of the Senate with Senator Champneya,
emphatically denied ever having uttered such,
a sentiment or even language to such an
elect.
—The denial of Senator Clymer having,
found its way before the people, the question
has become one of veracity between that gen
tleman and certain loyal men of Johnstown.'
We leave the matter with these parties. ft
does not concern us, as it is of no other con-:
sequence except as a matter covering up
he which should blister on somebody's for.:
head. The following card from a correspond
ent in Cambria county, leaves Senator Clymer
in a position for further explanation:
JOUNSTOWN, February 6, 1864.
Editor Harrisburg Telegraph:—ln your issue,
of this morning, you print a debate in the
State Senate between Messrs. Champneys and
Clymer. During this debate Mr. Clymer de- 7
nied ever having declared that "if Vallandig
ham, of Ohio, and Woodward, of Pennsylva
nia, were elected, they, in conjunction with
Seymour, of New York, and Parker, of No -
Jersey, would recall their troops from thii
field, and thus stop this war." He alleges
that it was falsely reported he had made usy
of such language in a speech delivered at
Somerset, in the county of Somerset, in this
State, during the last political campaign.
I do not say the Hon. gentleman did degrade
himself by uttering such sentiments, but it
is strange we have the charge coining from 86
many sources. It is stated by persons whb
heard him speak at Ebensburg, in this
county, that he used this very language. iI
am not prepared to state such to be the casl,
but I submit to Mr. Clymer whether his con
dition at Somerset may not have been the
same as at Ebensburg. If such was the case,
were not his hearers and supporters more ca
pable than he of repeating his speech ?
Mr. Clymer may considr that he made the
matter better by his explanation. It was sup
posed in this "back county" that the so-called
Democratic party had got sick of Vallandig
ham. Mr. C. tells us to the contrary; hence
their motto still is, "Not a man or a cent for
the prosecution of this war."
If Mr. Clymer desires to have the matter in
vestigated, we can furnish him with some
testimony which might bear on the subject,
and convince the Hon. gentleman that he has
misrepresented imism.r, either in his stump
speeches or in the Senate. CAMBRIA.
Credit on the Draft
A great mistake is being made with refer
ence to the credit on the draft, and many dis
tricts, after having expended large sums of
money to fill up their quotas, will find that
they have not in reality furnished a soldier to
secure exemption on the present call. The
error is committed in this manner: Agents
are new in this city from all parts of the State,
looking, after the veterans who have just re
turned on furlough. These agents make it a
business to bargain with the veterans, paying
each soldier a certain sum of money to allow
himself to be credited -to a certain district,
when that veteran has already been credited
and received a, bounty. - The locality, of the
enlistment of the veteran—where he was first
credited, cannot be and was not changed
when he re-enlisted. Hence_ the wrong of
tempting these men'into allowing their names
to be credited to localities only now offering
bounties. In all cases, such credits will be
disallowed by the Provost Marshals in the
several districts. The people will at once see
that if the double credit were allowed, the
Government would get no soldiers while the
people would be enormously taxed.
—This is an important subject, and we
trust that great care will be taken to prevent
the injury likely to result through it, from
becoming general.
The Plots of the Democratic Minority in
the Senate Handsomely Frustrated by
the Honesty of a Democratic Sheriff
The last hope:of the factionists in the Senate
has been destroyed, and at length the way is
clear, though the plots -, and the counterplots
of such miserable demagogues and tricksters
as Clymer and Lamberton, to secure the pro
gress of the legitimate business of legislation.
When the writs for an election to fill the va
cancy in the Indiana Senatorial district were
issued, it was confidently asserted, in copper
head circles in this city, that an election could
and would not be held in that district—that
the issuing of the writ was informal and ille
gal—and that the Sheriff of Armstrong county,
a Democrat, would positively refuse to recog
nize the writ. These declarations were made
on the strength of the plots entered into in
this city. The leaders of the minority in the
Senate, were determined that' the Sheriff in
Armstroilecomity'should be used as a tool to
carry out their base purposes, and still further
disgrace the State with the delay in the legis
lature. But the Shthiff of Armstrong county
appears to lie an honest man, with too much
integrity for the manipulations of ely - mer and
Lamberton. He recognized the writ for an
election, as issued by Speake s r Penney, and .
accordingly we find 'in our Icittarking ex
changes, the proclamation of the • Sheriff of
Armstrong county, fixing the election to
fill the vacancy in the district, to take place
on the 19th inst. This puts an end to the
machinations of the minority in the Senate.
After the 19th inst. they will throw off the
disguise and appear in their true garb.
What's Become of "O. Barrett 4.3.: Co.:"
The spirits have certainly been at work on
"0. Barrett & Co." Noiseless and mysteriously
the firm has taken its departure from the
business marts of the State Capital. It first
disappeared
_from the inner pages of the
Tory Organ. It went without a groan—with
out a sigh, without even the sound of catgut,
a fact Unaccountable with Deacon Barrett, as
he is wont to breathe out his soul in requiems
and regrets on the strings of his favorite
"fiddle." Next, "O. Barrett & C 0.," like a
• shadow on a dirty pool, whose waters are filled
• with unclean and infectious things, disap
. peared from the outside pages of the Organ,
so that this morning the sheet appears with
out the name of a publisher, proprietor or edi
tor. Its paternity has vanished—its parents
seem to desert it as the parents desert the
child conceived in sin and brought forth in
shaine. We predicted this result months ago.
We predicted that "0. Barrett & Co." would
become weary and ashamed of their work of
hypocrisy and toryism, and, at length the
hour of humiliation has come with all its ills;
grace, and now " O. Barrett & Co." shrink from
the public gaze and execration; without a fare
well to their partizans or an explanatory justi
fication to their fellow-citizens. Truly the
path of the transgressor is rough.
Col. John J. Curtin
This gallant young soldier, with his regiment,
(45th P. V.,) reached the State capital on Sat
urday evening, and is now quartered at Camp
Curtin. The Forty-fifth came direct from
Tennessee, halting in Cincinnati only long
enough to be paid. It has seen much hard
service, and won a substantial reputation alike
for its conduct while before the enemy, as for
its discipline while on the march and on fur
lough.
Colonel Curtin, though a young man, is all
a soldier, brave, stern and impetuous, not only
Performing his OWII duty, but exacting the
full performance of the duty assigned to all
under. his command. Col. Curtin entered the
three mouths' service as a private, and froni
the day that he took up arms to the present
hour, no man in the army has more faithfully
performed his duty alike to those under his
command and to the country beneath whose
banner he fights.
BAsm DuxE, one of Morgan's officers,
by authority of the War Department, has been
released from the penitentiary, and is now at
Camp Chase on parole, which allows him the
freedom of the camp.

Railroad Open to Knoxville.
Destruction of Quartermaster's Stores.
Deserters Still Flocking into our Lines
I=l
The large oil mill of D. W. Burson & Co.,
Richmond, Ind., was burned on Saturday
night. Loss estimated at .$75,000; insured
for $25,000. Twenty thousand bushels of
flaxseed, seventy-five barrels linseed oil and a
large quantity of oil casks were destroyed.
Chattanooga dispatches of the 7th say that
the railroad is open to Cleveland, Tennessee,
and will be open to Knoxville in five days.
Reports of mutiny and wide-spread rebellion
in the rebel army are afloat. Deserters are
still coming in.
The railroad depot, - containing quartermas 7
tars' stores, was burned at Chattanooga on
Saturday. Loss a hundred thousand dollars.
Gen. Logan's expedition returned to Hunts
villa, without encountering the enemy. The
rebel army is around Tunnel Hill, Dalton and
Rome.
One thousand and forty-eight deserters
were registered at the Provost Marshal's office
"during January. One hundred and ten came
in on the second.
FROM WASHINGTON.
WASHINGTON, February 8
Up to twelve o'clock to-day the government
have no intelligence from the army of the Po
tomac. -
The reports thus far received are very
meagre. It is - reported that the rebels are in
considerable force in our front.
Nothing additional has been received from
Newbern or Knoxville.
The Ways and Means Committee will not
consider the Senate's amendment to the whis
kybilluntil to-morrow, and it is now doubtful
whether the bill will be considered by_the
House until the conscription bill is disposed
of.
LATER
Parties arriving from the front this morning
state that when our troops pushed across at
Germania Ford, they found the reblerifle pits
in that immediate vicinity occupied by but 25
pickets, who threw down their arms and sur
rendered, stating that there was no rebel force
within 10 miles of their position.
Immediately thereafter our fortes pushed
ahead in the direction of Orange C. H., but
had hardly progressed two miles when they
were opened on from 12 guns. Attacking the
rebel force working and supporting these guns,
we drove them from their position with con
siderable loss in killed, wounded and prison
ers, our loss being 35 in the affair.
The mass of our infantry then re-crossed
the Rapidan, leaving a force to hold the rifle
pits first taken, probably until the operationS
of our cavalry, that had marched by a different
route, had terminated.
Heavy firing is said to have been heard yes
terday, and it was believed about Culpepper
that our cavalry was then engaged,•with the
enemy it had been seeking.

ment and Return to Old quarters.
Yesterday commenced another epoch in the
history of the war. The Army of the Potomac
moved. Let the nation rejoice.
The order came the night before, although
nearly one thousand:wives of the officers and
men were in camp. Notwithstanding that,
after two or three weeks of remarkably plea
sant weather for the season, the morning was
foggy and cloudy, portending rain, never did
troops make ready for a march with greater
alacrity or trudge off through the mud in
higher spirits than did the officers and men of
the invincible Army of the Potomac. The
whole movement was under the command
of that gallant and popular soldier, Major
General John Sedgwick. Whether the move
ment was devised or planned or advised by
him, it is not in the power of your correspond
ent to state. Whether it•was well or ill ad
vised, at the present thne-it is not within his
province to state. Time will determine and
history will record the Verdict on these points.
In the morning the roads in the open coun
try were tolerably dry and good; but in the
woods they were so wet that the artilery cut
them up into mud a foot deep at least. Of
course in moving so large a force all the routes
had to be taken advantage of, and conse
quently some portions of it had very heavy
marching. In addition to this, about noon a
drizzling rain set in, which soon made the best
of the roads anything but favorable to _ loco
motion.
One division crossed the river with but little
opposition. Batteries were planted on the
heights, which opened furiously to cover the
crossing. This, however, elicited no reply
from the "Johunies" until near night. As
darkness and rain and a heavy fog enveloped
the scene a sharp artilery and musketry fire
commenced, and continued for an hour or
more.

RETURN OF THE TROOPS FROM TREES RECONNOIS
SANCE SOUTH OF THE RAPIDAN.
The Army of the Potomac is again back at
winter quarters.
General Kilpatrick crossed at Culpepper
Ford and scoured the country from Jacob's
Ford to near Fredericksburg, finding nothing
but cavalry pickets of Hampton's division,
nearly all of whom they captured.
A detachment of the Second New York cav
alry went up to Jacob's Ford, where they had
learned there was a sergeant and nine men.
They captured three of them.
Kilpatrick's command ; havingaccomplished
the purpose for which it was sent, returned to
camp to-day at noon.
General Warren crossed the Thir&Division
of the Second Corps at Morton's Ford yester
day, with little or no opposition..
Last evening the Second Division of the
same corps crossed, and attempted to ,join the
Third in a piece of woods on the left of the
ford. The rebels then opened upon them
with musketry from the right of the ford,
where they had been concealed in another
piece of woods. The night was dark, rainy
and foggy, and the firing of each party was
directed by the flash of the guns of their op
ponents.
During the night; after firing had ceased,
our men were ordered to return across the
river, which they did without molestation.
CINCECNATI, Feb. 8
The Loss in killed, wounded and missing is
reported at between one and two hundred;
but this is not official, and cannot be relied
upon.
Our troops have lain just this side of the
river all day. Our pickets were on the bank
this side of the river, and the rebels just on
the other side of Morton's Ford.
Gen. Humphreys went down this evening
and ordered all our troops back into their
quarters, as the whole object had been accom
plished. Accordingly all the forces are back
in camp to-night, the Second corps being the
only one which has met with any loss.
[THIRD DISPATCH.]
CULPEPPER COURT HOUSE, }
Virginia, Feb. 7-10 P. m.
SSIRAIISR WITH STUART'S OdVAIRY.
Merritt's First division of cavalry, which
went to Barnett's Ford, towards Madison
Court House, met some of Stuart's cavalry
last evening, and skirmished with them this
morning, the whole division excepting those
left on picket being on hand.
Our forces advanced and found the rebel
cavalry backed by infantry. General Merritt
pitched in, and drove the whole force before
him across Robertson's river to Madison
Court House.
Our troops were ready and eager for a fight
with the enemy. They would have followed
their leaders anywhere. Nothing but cheer
ing could be heard all the way, both in the
advance and return, and the commander of
the Army of the Potomac must feel flattered
by the conduct of his troops.
The third division of the second corps
waded across Morton's Ford, although there
was a corps of engineers ready to lay a bridge
They waded up to their waists in water to
cross. Who can whip such men as these ?
By an arrival from the Kanawha we now
learn tho particulars of the capture of Gen.
Scammon and staff, and .the burning of the
steamer Levi. The steamer was lying at
Winfield, on the west side of the river, when Ur.
ty-five guerillas appeared on the opposite side.
Thirteen of these crossed in a skiff and took
possession of the steamer, capturing the Gen
eral and forty officers and, soldiers of whom
were asleep at the time.
The guerrillas afterwards burned the boat
and paroled all 'on board excepting Scaramon
and three officers. The prisoners were
mounted and the,party set off for the interior.
Forces haie been sent in pursuit.of them.

The following parties, supposed to be im

A dispatch from Powell's River Bridge says
that, 'on Friday of last week, three brigades of
cavalry, about 1,600 strong, and 400 mounted
infantry, under the command of Colonel Leve,
of the llth - *Kentucky, skirmished with the
rebels under General Jones, on the Virginia
road, thirteen miles from Cumberland Gap.
The fight lasted three hours, and we held our
position until dark, although attacked by a
superior force. We then withdrew to our
camp, three miles in the rear.
At sunrise on Saturday morning Jones'
pickets were advanced, when Love moved to
the front to meet the enemy advancing in line,
with 4,000 infantry and cavalry and three
pieces of artillery. Col. Love then fell back
three miles, skirmishing all the way, when
the enemy ceasing to follow Love encamped:
The next morning he sent all the available
force two miles in front, and had a lively
skirmish with the enemy, twice charging the
rebels and driving them back with heavy loss,
since which, up to the afternoon of the sth,
they have not appeared in any force ou our
front.
Our loss in these skirmishes was 5 killed, 8
wounded and 3 missing. Capt. Newport, of
the Bth Tennessee, was killed. The enemy's
loss was 10 killed and 13 to 25 wounded, and
the result was an unsuccessful attempt to take
Cumberland Gap.
All is quiet now in this neighborhood.
Garrard, the new commander at this post, is
determined to hold the Gap at all hazards.
We have nothing definite from, Knoxville.
Loinsvnax, Feb. 7.—The reporter of the
Associated Press, from the front of General
Grant's army, just arrived from Nashville,
states, on the highest military authority in
Nashville, that all the skirmishes recently
reported were merely foraging fights between
our own and the rebel cavalry.
Gen. Park, on the night of the 4th, was at
Knoxville, in command of the 9th Army Corps,
and had no communication cut off this side
of Cumberland Gap.
The Tazewell fight was unimportant, and did
not affect the general situation.
The following has just been received, andby
its . silence on other matters corroborates the
above. It comes from the correspondent of
the Associated . Press, dated Powell's liver
Bridge, 5 miles east of Cumberland Gap. Citi
zens report that the rebels Are concentrating
at New Market and Doddridge.
• Gen. Schofield has assumed the command
of the Department of the Ohio, and Gen. Fos

Gen. Boyle's resignation has been accepted,
