TDB PEOPLE'S CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT,'
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
HARRISBURG, PA,.
SATFRDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 13, 18$1.
The Peaee llen.
The disavowal of Senator Clymer of ever
having threatened . a vigorous peace nziove-
ment by the joint action of the Executives of
Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania, in ease of
the election of Messrs. Woodward and Val
landigham, is attracting the attention of the
press all. over the State, and particularly in the
localities where Clymer made this assertion
with great boldness during the late Guberna
torial campaign. There is a perfect concur
rence among those who heard Clymer, that
•he did indulge in such. declarations. Re
marking upon these coincidences,
.the -Wash
ington Chronicie says that at the late electien
Mr. Clymer was unquestionably a strong
peace man. Ile insisted that peace was to be
obtained by conciliation and compromise.—
But he and theiii wh6 acted with him are
finding out that the people will be satisfied
with no peace that is not purchased by the
entire submission of the rebels to the author
ity of the Federal Government, and we should
not be at all surprised to find them ere long
' advocating.the most vigorous prosecution: of
.the war. The peace programme will leave its
advocates stranded amid the political wrecks
of the past; and scenting in advance that ter-
rible storm of popular indignation which is
destined to sweep out of sight every public
man who would betray the nation into the
hands of traitors, Mr. Clymer would retrace
his steps. He is but one of a la7rge
They are learning that the Aramican people
will avenge an insulted nationality and main- .
tain the majesty of the law. They are be
ginning to perceive that the people Will not
welcome back to places of trust the blood
stained traitors wfto sought to overthrow this
proud fabric of our liberties, and though
words of forgiveness and acts of mercy may
be extended to the repentant, misguided fol
lowers of the Great Crime of the nineteenth
century, the most condign.punishment is de
manded for, and must be visited upon its in
famous authors.
"War and Money.,"
One of the favorite themes with the copper
head organs in this and other States, when
they seek to disgrace the Government or im ,
pair the confidence Of the people iii the au
thorities, is the financial condition of: the
country. Taking aggregates, or seldeting
the items of expense which - appear the most
stupendous to the inexperienced public, such
journals as the Tory Organ rniseni howl iu
the ears of the people, that the Government
is ou the verge of bankruptcy; that the . .
re
sources of the people are being. wasted, aid
that extravagance must eventually utterly
ruin the whole people.' These assertions,'
however, on the part of the hypocrites who
control the Tory Organ, are mere bosh. They
are made to attract attention from the real
extravagance which has pushed Pennsylvania
into an expenditure of a million of dollars,
from which the people of the Stato,will neVer
receive a penny's value of benefit. =•
—While the tory press of TennSYlv'ania
were attacking the national 'authorities, arid
charging extravagances on the National Gov
ernment, a minority of Democrats in the
Pennsylvania Senate were engaged in 11 . plot,
by which the people of the State were abso
lutely robbed of a million of dollars—a:mil
lion of dollars to fill the pockets of English
contributors to the rebel cause, domestic
speculators, and small-fry Imliticilms. The
people of . the State of Pennsylvania will not
forget the men who burdened them with this
atm, million of a public•debt.Pfowever the.
Tory Organ may misrepresent the facts ini-ela . t
tion'to the national 'hwindes—:hoWever4e.niaY
nt.teuipt to create the impression that the re
sources of the people are being wasted-in the
effert to crush a 2 wicked rebellion, the one
great fact that the bemocratic leaders of Penn
sylvania wasted a million of dollars without
'doing a penny's worth of - good for the'State
or the nation, will never be lost sight of by
the people.
Itimanzo of ITlrsmeLoysti GIWEIIAL Om
ceas.—Mr. Schenck, chairman of the Military
Committee of-the House of Representatives,
endeavored yesterdayto obtain general consent
to have printed a bill to drop from the rolls
of the army unemployed general officers.
The bill says it appears that many general of
ficers are or have been either entirely unem
ployed or not on duty corresponding with
their rank; thus holding commissions and
drawing pay vithout service, and standing in
the way of plomotion of other officers; there
fore, all major generals and brigadier gene
rals who shall not, on the :15th- of March,
1864, be in the performance of service
corres
ponding with their rank, and for three months
continuously prior to that date, shall: be
[hopped from the rolls of the'arms, and all
their pay shall cease, and the vadancieemay
be filled by new appointments and promotions.
But this does not refer to officers absent in
consequence Of wounds, or being prisoners - of
war, on parole. Any major general or briga
dier general, appointed in accordance with the
provisions of the act of 1861, so dropped from
the rolls, shall not be discharged, but remit
ted to his position as a line or staff 'officer is
in the regular army.
THE National Conference Committee of the
Union Lincoln Association of New York, of
which Simeon Draper is President, has issued
an address calling upon tLe ft:lends of Presi
dent Lincoln to hold meetings on the 22nd of
February, throughout the State, to take mum
sures to securehis nomination for re-election.
We recommend the holding of similar meet
ings in all parts of the State of 'Permsylvania.
.Wherever it is possible for the people' of " the
old Keystone State to assemble on the
day of February, the birth day of the Fathpr
of. His Country, let them do so; ana proelaun
their devotion to the Preserver of the Union,
Abraham Lincoln!
The People and Abraham Lincoln
rytiere never Was a time, in the history of
the country, when tile politicians were more .
puzzled by the people, than the present.
Heretofore, it was the rule with the politicians
who swarm about the departments at Wash
ington, and quarrel at the doors- of the Na
tional Capitol for the crumbs which fall from
the bounties of Congress; to arrange Presi
dential successions, to construct Cabinets,
and (in plain English) lead the people by the
nose to the'exeation - of inly - Planiihfch these
demagogues had agreed upon. We all know
that the system of frauds which has so dis
graced and degraded formernominating con
ventions, kis bebonie nuisance, doubly
and offensive to the public nostrils. More
than once, these assemblages, convening
tinder the'rnost soleinn pledges to the people,
to do certain things,' have set aside the
wishes of those they represented, forcing upon
• • .
them for support men at, times totally un
known to them, tins compelling the nation at
large to incur dangerous risks in electing men
to office who did, not, possess. its confidence,
solely thatthe dirty qUariels of a few jobby
politicians might be compromised. History
attests these facts. They; ave subjected Pour
system of free government -to the ridicule and
the contempt of the world. They have made
us, as a professedly free people, a mockery in
the sight of the statesmen of other lands,
who do not believe in Man's ability for self
government ; because the very frauds to which
we have submitted in this particular, have
taught the world to believe that the people of
the United States, instead of governing them
selves, succumb to the rule and the dictaiion of
the leaders of cliques, men of the lowest in-
stineta and the worst princiPles. At length,
.
however; . the people 'have awakened to a
realization of their true power.. Feel
ing that they are competent to con
trol and.' exercise their own preferences,
the people have almost unaubnously, resolved
to re-elect Abraham Lincoln. They haye re
solved to do this regardless of the objections
of the leaders of cliques, or the self-eleVated
and . self-anointed politicians. Never before
ha - ving taken the load, in. the initiatory.pro
ceedings• of a political campaign; the en
thusiasm with' which the people are
proclaiming for "()Id Abe" annoys
the ,politicians. It .looks,. to the old fo
gies of parties who were in the habit of swad
dling and panegoricizmg every candidate for
high offices, before the masses were Perntitted
to see "the people's choice," as if their oc
cupation• was gone, as if they would be com
pelled to follow instead of lead, the freemen of
America! Nor are the political hacks of the
nation mistaken in their vision. . Just as they
regard Ithe , action of the people, so do the
people design to control the coming 'Presitlen-, ,
,Feeling the necessity of re
electing Abraham Lincoln as.. essential to the
success and safety of the Government, the
people have declared with a full faith in the
justice of their cause, to enter on the ac
complishment of that;purpose. If they fail,
they will have themselves to blame. If dis
aster should come out of their 'Wriest 'efforts,
in the ruins which will then crumble at their
feet, something more than a mere party will be
buried. A nation and all its hopes will be en
tombed beneath the mass ! Let the politi
cians, then, who are plotting to thwart the
wishes of •the people on this subject, consider
well the danger which`they are incurring, and
follow, before it is too date, the wishes and
the preference of the people with reference to.
the Presidential succession.
Seo far as Pennsylvania is concerned, we be
lieve and feel morally certain that the great
masses of the people thereof are to-day unal
terably fixed. in their preference for the
_re
election of Abraham Lincoln. We not only
mly belieVe this, but we also strongly in
cline to the faith that any effort to interfere
with this purpose and resolve, will result in
disaster to the men who make the attempt as
well as to the country itself, There was a
time when politiCians could interfere with
and frustrate the wishes of the people in such
matters, but'that time has passed.. Neverthe
less, it behooves the people to be on the
watch for these politicians. Henceforth,
the people must lead. Henceforth, all ceenbi
nations of individuals—all . arrangements of pol
iticians—all plans to, subserve personal aSpi
,rations, must yield to the wishea of the peo
ple, or make direct issue with their will and
be borne down beneath their mighty pro-'
gress. The destiny of the nation demands thiti
-sacrifice on the part of the politician&
Eearulting.
If any man doubts the devotion of the peo
ple of Pennsylvania, let such a one stand for
an hour in Third street, near the recruiting
offices, and behold the spectacle daily there
presented. It has no equal for grandeur in
anything contained in history. There is noth
ing in the whole course of the war to compare
to the exhibition thus made, by a people rush
ing almost en masse. to the resale of their
country. Prom early dawn until late in the
evening, A continuous marching of men is
heard and seen in that direction. As fast as
one squad is sworn in, another comes up, cud
thus recruiting is conducted. The recruits
are hardy-looking men, all having more or
less experience in the field as soldieri, at
least a knowledge of the discipline of the
camp... From these indications, we are satis
fied that the draft will not be made necessary
in. a majority of the counties, if indeed it
actually takes place in Pennsylvania:. The re
cruits are, exceedingly jealous as to being pro
perly credited to their different homes, evinc
ing that'pride and 'affection for 'home Which
come nest to the 'greater pride and devotion
to th@ country. at large. All honor and a libe
ral reward are due to the gallant defenders of
the Govermneut ' ' '

The following is- the enrollment bill al;
amended. It having passed both Houses of
Congress, only awaits the President's signa
ture to become a law:
The bill, as passed by the House, provides

tion districts, shall be as nearly as possible in
proportion to the number of men resident
therein subject to, draft, taking into account,
as far as practicable, the number which has
been previouslY furnished therefrom; and in as
certaining and filling the said quota there shall

shall be returned to the wheel. Members of

benefit of , sick and wounded soldiers: Provid
ed, 'That no . ' person shall be entitled to
the benefit of the provisions of this

ANOTILER I ELOCRADE RUNNER COME TO GRIEF.
On Tuesday morning last, at daylight a
large Clyde built iron steamer. schooner
rigged, and with two smoke stacks, was dis
covered by our troops at Battery Strong,
Cummings' Point, Morris Island, apparently
ashore in Maffitt's channel, off Fort Moultrie,
Sullivan's Island. When first discovered a
large number of men were observed on her
discharging cargo and transporting it to the
beach. In a short time one three hundred
pounder Parrott and other heavy rifles were
trained upon and soon opened fire. The first
shell from the huge rifle struck near her and
dashed immense volumes of spray in the air.
A second shot followed quickly after, and
the rebels began to desert the vessel and hur
ry ashore in the most excited manner, which
was not at all quieted by the third shot, which
crushed through the iron sides of the steamer
and sent the fragments flying in all directions.
The steamer was instantly deserted by the
loiterers, who jumped overboard, took - to the
shore, and then to their heels in an amusing
manner.
The fire was still maintained from the
heavy guns, and eight 'shot and shell put
through the vessel, which sunk as the tide
came up and rushed through the gaping holes
in her hull. The work' was so well done that
it was apparent that no possible effort on the
part of the rebels could float her up to the
city. During the day the batteries on Cum
mings' Point would play upon her at inter
vals, for the purpose of preventing the rebels
from saving the balance of the cargo.
On the following day the Monitors ran up
towards Moultrie and. finished the work of
destruction most effectually, by knocking the
angle-rebel to pieces with their 'fifteen-inch
shells. Perhaps some of the cargo may float
ashore from the wreck, but the great bulk of
it is undoubtedly lost.
The steamer was evidently imward bound,
and came very near effecting a successful
"run." She had run by the naval cordons of
,blockaders, and run ashore nearly under the
guns of Moultrie. But for that unfortunate
mishap, she Would have been lying at the dock
at Charleston before breakfast time on Tues
day morning. We had supposed the 'idea of
running into, the harbor of Charleston had
long ago been relinquished; but it would semi
that some are daring enough yet to attempt
the run. It will not succeed in the future
any more brilliantly than in this, the last at
tempt. The name of the ship is unknown.
