THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT,
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
HARRISBURG, P•A
WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 10, 1864.
An Interesting Debate
The House was occtipied &morning in dis
cussing a resolution instructing the special
committee appointed to ascertain the damages
occasioned by the rebel raid in the Cumber
land Valley, to inquire into the loyalty of the
applicants for damages. The copperheads
seemed to be horror struck that any of the
residents in Franklin, Fulton, Cumberland,
Adams and York counties should be considered
disloyal and. opposed the resolution. The
House adjourned without taking a vote on the
resolution, and we shall lay the fall debate be
fore our readers as‘soon as our phonographic
reporters have the speeches transcribed.
A Cool Specimen of Legislative Inipu
delate
The Legislature of New Yerk recently pass
ed a bill to prevent the agents of other States
from recruiting to fill their quotas within the
limits of that State. This is certainly the coolest
&Age in making capital, that ever was at
tempted by any set of sharpers in the uni-
verse. It is well known that New York has
nit filled a single quota of troops yet called for
from her authorities for thenational Govern
ment---that New York mobs have made a bloody
rasistante ,f to the conscription officers—and
t'iat at least one 7 foutth of the troops she has
sent to the war were aliens who had just ar
rived in her ports, while another fourth was
composed of citizens of States bordering : on
New York, who were seduced into the rankS
of her volunteers by offers which have never
yet been realized. Now, with rt . cool impu
dence that would suit a hotter locality than
Albany, the New York Legislature enacts that
the agents of other States would not be per
mitted to 'recruit for troops within her 'limits,
If that. Legislature had passed a: resolution
thanking the Pennsylvanians, Jerseyites, Ver
monters, and the foreigners who make up the
bulk of what are classed as New York vain
teers, it would have only done a simple act of
justice. As it is, the Legislature of New York
on this subject is supremely ridiculous.
FOREIGIsT BonuowlNus.—There is a -mania
for borrowing at this moment, on the part. of
the leading European PoWers. Austria seeks
a loan of $50,000,000; . Denmark, $7,500,000;
the German Gonfecleration, $8,500,000; Italy,
$40,000,000; RusSia.: $40,000,000; Prussia,
$10,500,000; Sweden, $36.300,000; . Spain,
$15,000,000; Erance, $60,000,000; and even
the little Kingdom. of Greece, already over
head and ears in debt, desires that some soft
headed and kind-hearted capihdist will tin
draw his purse strings, and hand over $40,-
000, which will suffice - for the -present, to
"maintain the dignity"' of her Deno-Gorman.
boy-lung, elected to the ptirple,lii the room
of Otho, of Bavaria.. The sum total of these
monetary requirements is $267,84.0,000a
pretty amount, at a - tinie•when itis pretended
that Europe is in a state of;peace: •
ALIENS ENLISTED AS SUBSTITUTES. —The
Hon. William Whiting, Solicitor of the War
Department, has decided that aliens, who are
subjocts of,a foreign government, having vol
untarily enlisted in the service of the United
States as substitutes for drafted men,' are not
entitled to be discharged from such Service by
reason of alienage, but may, under the law of
nations, be held to perform their engage
ments without giving the government to
which their allegiance is due just cause of
complaint,.
CoPpERHEADISII, irritatedby the return home
of the brave furloughed veterans of the army,
is getting bold in Edgar county, Illinois. -A
force of some Six or seven hundred got to
gether in camp last week, near the town of
Paris, determined to make a fight With the re
turned soldiers. A force was 'stint from Terre
Haute, Ind., and at last accounts the rebel
scoundrels were said to havejpst courage•and
dispersed.
THE lower House of the Kentucky Legisla
tare passed a bill recently, by a vete of 81 to
10, authorizing the Governor to invest $6OO,
..._ 030 in coin, due the State on account of
stock in the Southern Bank of Kentucky, in
5-20 bonds, or other National securities. This
-is satisfactory evidence of the confidence of
the Legislature in the credit of the Nation.
THE - New Bedford (Mass.) Standard pub
lishes a letter from the West Gulf blockading
I
fleet, which Mute t, from the, steps in pro
gress, Galreston, 4 : ias, will soon be in our
possession. The* iter says the city is at our
mercy at any moment; and were it not that
many loyal people are residing therelt would
be destroyed. .
WELL DONE !—The Union men of the Tenth
Ward, Brooklyn, Wedneaday, elected an
Allerman, by six majority. The ward has
been hitherto largely DemOcratie,. This sue
- C 355 secures a Union prepinideranne in the
board.
A PER days ago an EngliShman., ligio'wris in
the Affghan war, and afterwards in the Cri
mei", where he was one of the "Sit hruidral"
who niade the charge at Ealalclava, enlisted
at New Htiven, Conn., for "three years or the
war." •
THE total costa of the monitoie, built and
being built, will be $22,150;000.. Twenty
other inoriitOslight draft—are building at a
coat, each, complete,. of $465,000, all designed,
f e inside ;work—river arid harbor defente;
fr,rruors, according to Governor Yatea,
free from the draft, having 'always been in
excess to her quota.
GovummE .J3itonan has issued his pioClama
doh urging' the people of Ohio to 'fill their
quota, estimated at 25,000.
What the National Administration Owes
to those who Sustain its Policy.
The Administration of Abraham Lincoln has
had a duration of almosf three years. During all
that tithe, it has required the utmost and the
unceasing efforts of its friends inspoken words
and active deeds to defend not, only the pOlicy,
but the personal reputation of those who repre
sent that Administration. It has required these
efforts, not because the assaults made upon
the President and his Constitutional advisers
embodied any degree of truth, but,because the
men engaged in this crusade were per
sistent and malignant. Hundreds of men, in
localities all over the country, have made bit
ter social enemies, because they have stood by
the Administration in all it straits, urging
its policy to crush rebellion, and defending its
position with reference to the cause and the
influences of rebellion. These men made
these sacrifices in good- faith; ,believing,.that
they were serving the common cause .of the
country. They asked for no recognition at the
hands of the Administration—they sought no
patronage, and have been content for three
years to bear &it - timely and - reproach, simply
because they were and are inspired with
a patriotism which Imowis no lack of
confidence or want of devotion to the Gov
ernment But while these sacrifices have
been thus nobly made 'by the masses of those
who support the Administration, both State
and National; it cannot be denied, that their
wishes have in many instances been disre
garded, by keeping in subordinate positions
men who are utterly-incapacitated for place—
Vl° are deficient in patriotism—wanting iu
honesty, and 'lacking in the essential arributes
of- fair dealing with their country in the hour
of its peril. The men who create and- sustain
Administrations; are becoming weary of- this
trifling, Deep down in the heart of the peo
ple, there is a dissatisfaction at all this disre
gard of their wishes, which only the most
speedyreform eau thoroughly remove.
Hence, it is in a spirit of real concern for the
reputation - of both the State and National Ad
ministrations, that we implore the respective
heads of both to recognize only such as are
known to be its friends and supporters. The
confidence of the people is sufficient to ren
der any administration independent. That
coufideuce has been extended to the National
Administration for three years, and yet in the
face Of this, we see daily instances of men
being kept in plebe, who are offensive to the
masses of the people=-obnoxious to the up
holders of our principles—and who area real
injury to , the_destiny of our country. Only a
day or two since,. the New York Tribune com
plained that the DepartMents at . Washington
were swarming with employees who are con
fessedly either absolutely, or secretly
the bitter opponents of the Administration on
whose bounty they are fed and clothed.. But
we need not go as far as Washington, to be
hold a similar humiliating spectacle. Here,
in this city, are men who have grown fat, off
the Administration,. who aro living indolently
on - its patronage, and who only exert theta
selves when hard words are \ reqiiired to be
'Spoken Of the men who represent the author : -
ity of the Government. The masses, the men
who voted the present Administration into
power, are not dumb beholders of these trans
adieus., Tliey are beginning to-feel and de
clare themselves on these subjects; not in
public meetings, but at
.the fireside of each,
at the work bench and in the, field, where
freemen hold their mostsacred consultations.
—Three years of bitter contest with an
open and a secret foe, has taught the National
Administration that compromise or concilia
tion is a dream—au idle, vain and delusive ex-
pectation. lye have tided to conciliate our po
litical opponents—we have shared the offices
of trust and honorat our disposal with these
men, and in return we have been betrayed
whenever .the opportunity presented to make
capital against our party leaders, and Our fixed
principles. Let the Administration, then,
however late in its career; take warning. Let
all false friends be removed from ; positions
within its gift of trust and honor. Let us be true
to our ourselves; first, and honest mini will're
speet our course if it is only for its independ
ent manliness.
A National Tax on the Circulation of all
State Banks
Petitions Are being' presented to - Congress
from various quarters praying that the circu
lation of all banks chartered by State Legisla
tures-may be taxed to such an extent as to
compeltheM to call- ix their issues, and use
only the national legal tender currency. This
is a reform which' cannot: be too speedily put
into 'operation. By a system known only to
the, banks, no institrition .in this Common
wealth pays out its own notes in its own local-,
ity: Checks on almost any bank are paid in
as many different five dollar bills as are called
for on the face of the check, all on different
banks, distant from the locality of the banks
which issued them; and totally unknown to
the'pertons who are expected to receive them
as money, What goocl rais= is there to pre
vent'these banks from circulating the notes of
the Government. The GovernMent is just as
solvent as any of these., banking companies,
so that the bank which refuses thus to con
tribute to the general success, should be
-
heavily taxed on its own issues to. make up
for the refusal. Now is the time for Congress
to assert its power over the eurrencY of the
country. Now is, the time for the Federal
Government to:insist npon.its exclusive right
to make and issue money. Let there be no
delay about these assertions. With this right
firmly fixed and exercised exclusively by the .
Federal Government, a great blesssing:will be
vouchsafed, financially, now and forever, here
after.
Dissatisfied
The Lancaster Examiner, edited by ex-Sen
ator Hiestand, and the able, organ of the Re
publican party in that county, is dissatisfied
with the appointment of Wiley, the editor of
the inquirer, (the Thug organ of that county, )
as a Notary Public. The Examiner, states its
reponl for, dissatisfaction in the followitig
plairilanguage
Of this appointment we cannot say that
Gov. Curtin has been fortunate, or that the
appointment will give satisfaction to the pub
lic or the party; yet we 'Cannot avoid congrat
ulating Mr. Wiley on his better luck, than when
he was an applicant for the same position un
der Gov. Packer. By the way, this Inquirer
is a funny machine. Its otherprindipaleditor,
Mr. Patton, has been made clerk of Common
Councils by the Copperhead majority there.
This is riding both nags to some purpose, but,
we fear b6th parties are paying very dear for
their whistle.
GENERAL 14, , T.T.VCK, it is said, will resign if
the Lieutenant-General bill shall be passed,
and Grant receive the appointment. This is
just the beginning of the evil effects of the
jealousy to which we lately referred as likely
to result from the action of Congress on this
subject.
SOME of the Union men of East Tennessee
who have been imprisoned by the rebels, have
commenced suits for damages against the vil
lainous leaders in the rebel ranks. Parson
BrownloW's suit is first on the docket, and he
lays his damages ak325,000.

PROPOSITION TO PROCEED TO BUSINESS.
Mr. TUTt4ELL offered the following:
.
WITEREIS, In the present equally divided
condition of this body, it seems impossilile to
take action upon strict party questions; there
fore,
Resolved, That until the return of the elec
tion for Senator in the Armstrong and Indiana
district, the Senate will ionfme itself to the
consideration oflocal bills, and to such neces
sary State legishitioir as has no partizan char
acter.
Mr. LAMBERTON called the / yeas and
nays.
Mr. JOHNSON suggested:toSenators . on the
other side the propriety of allowing the reso
lution to pass without calling the yeas and
nays: There could be no objection to.the reso
lution upon its merits, and as the other side
had allowed the passage of other resolutiditis,
it might be well to adopt, the one before the
body unanimously.
Mr. LAMBERTON. The objeCtion that we
have urged heretofore to such resolutions is
thtf same that we have now to Make. We
cannot see any propriety in passing thati reso
lution, because we do not believe that this body
can, under its • present organizatiOn; 'do any
legislative busineas,, either local' or general.
For that reason we; oppose
Mr. WILSON... I desire-to, ask for an .or
planation. Will the gentleman state what i -
the reason or objection to which ho refers? '
would like to hear it.
Mr. LAMBERTON. = It is unnecessary to
explain. We have given our seasons - for op
posing the transaction of-business heretofore,
and we do not see that it is necessary to re
peat them now. The main reason- is that we
have no Speaker and are without an orgardia-
Mx. LOWRY. Why don'tlou make.one?
Mr. LAMBERTON. Tf you vote ivith.tis
The question being on ,proceeding to the

—7.
Ness—Messrs. Beardslee, - Bucher, Kinsey,
Lamberton, MBherry, Montgomery and Wal
lace-7. . .
So the question was determinedin the nega
tive, no quorum voting. '
The SPEAKER stated that in consequence
of so. many Senators haVing paired off and ab
sented themselves, the Senate had been left,
without a quorum of members entitled to
vote.. .
On motion of Mr. 'WILSON, the Senate theii
adjourned until to-morrow morning at 11
