THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE FOR PRESIDENT,
ABRAHAM LINCOLTf.
HARRISBURG, PA
WEDNESDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY Vii, 1569.
The Election of State Senator the In
diana DiStriet.
We have at last received the official returns,
from Armstrong and Indiana counties of -the
election for Senator in that - districi...:..,Thektirek
as follows:
Armstrong, majority for St. Clair, 71
Indiana, 1,9123
St. Clair's majority,
This is the largest majority ever given to
any candidate for Senator in the district, and
a plain rebuke. to the copperheads' 'in the
Senate.
Judge Pearson's Opinion on the mu
lE=
We print, this afternoon, the very able '
opinion of the President Judge of this Judicial
District, refusing to grant a new trial in the
case of F. P. Hill. The opinion is the first
judicial paper given under the new law con
cerning cases of this kind, and from the high
reputation of thejudge, as well as the intricate
points of law involved in the case the .opin
ion is destined to be recorded as one which
will be referred to as authority in determining
future similar trials. We commend the opin
ion to 'our readers, and partionlarly to the
perusal of the legal profession.
Rumors of Another Call for Troops
When the first draft was ordered, the cop
perhead leaders organized societies in dif
ferent parts of the State, collected money, and
entered into many schemes to prevent men from
entering into the army. They alleged then
that the draft was illegal—that • compulsory
service in the army, by means of the = eon
scription,.was degrading—and thus in many
ways and with all sorts of excuses, the tory
sympathizers with treason endeavored to ob
struct and defeat the purpose of the draft.
These leaders now find themselveS confronted
with what is to them a new embarrassment.
They cannot comprehend the enthusiasm
with which the people are rallying to, the dif
ferent standards now raised .in :this State.
They see thousands of meti crowding to the
support of the'gallant Hancock—they behold
hundreds more enrolling themselves to fight
with Burnside—and they cannot explain to
themselves why the people thus rush to arms.
Determined, however, to arrest this patriotic
enthusiasm, the copperheads have hit upon
a plan which they imagine will succeed.
The plan is to give currency to rumors that
the President intends to call for more troops
—and that it does not matter how many men
volunteer, the authorities are determined to
order and put into operation with all the force
in their power, a draft. With these rumors
afloat, the copperheads leaders try to per
suade the people that it will be more prof
itable to wait for a draft that must and will
come to fill up the call for additional troops
which the President is bound to issue; that by
waiting, those who are ready to go into tho
army, will have an opportunity to demand
double the amount they now receive in bounty
as volunteers, as pay for substitutes., But all
this is a mere trick on the part of the copper
heads. When the present cat/ for troops is
filled up, there will be no 111,0r8 tem made for
soldiers, 'simply because 'with' this force we
will be able to whip the rebels soundly and
completely. None know this better than the
copperhead leaders. None are better convin
ced than the copperhead leaders that the fill
ing up of the armies is essential to the imme
diate success of the effort to put an end to re.,
bellion. • The rebels will. open the " Spring
campaign with all their:available forces. Every
man, old and young, who can pull a trigger
will be dragged into the rebel ranks. -*Hence,
the necessity of being prepared with an ade
quate force to meet and crush; the insurgents.
If the allies of treason intim .North can in
duce the people not to volunteer, they will, of
course, be adding just so much for every man
kept out of the federal, arniies, to the than-.
ces of rebel success. This isthe aOtual object
of-those who are constantlrrerieating 'the as
sertion that the President:intends to c4ll out
additional troops—that it is uselessi-therefOre,
to offer bountieesto avoid conscription, as the
draft is bound to come; sooner or later.
-We repeat our assertion, justified to do
so by reliable and positive information on the
subject, that no, calls for additional troops are
contemplated by the Federal Administration.
All that is asked, all that" is required, is the
fillip' up of the quotas nOw_aPpOrtioned to,
'the Several districts. With these trOops . the
Gwernment Will be fully able to crush rebellion,
end the war, and restore the /and to peace •and
Prosperihi
New liiinipshfre
Our Mends are fighting a noble battle in
-the Granite State, and if indications•can be
relied upon, we will----have the pleasure of re
cording a brilliant victory forthe Government
in that region. The best evidence that we
are gaining ground in New Hampshire, is the
fact that the Tory press are maligning the
men who are nobly battling for the Union and
the Constitution in that Commonwealth.
Hence, we may accept the bitter abuse of tbe
copperheads as the evidence of their convicl
tion and anticipation of .defeat. As 'the first
election in this, the Presidential• year,. the
contest in New Hampshire is of peculiar'in
tared. It is the evident determinatiOn of the
copperhead leaders there to make a desperate
effort to defeat the fiiencis of the 1:63.10. We
do not entertain a doubt that the result will
be the success, of the, ; Union ticket; but, to
make the victory sure and complete, every
patriotic nerve-should be . strained. In the
last State election several thousand ; War Dem.-
. ousts refused to go with the usurped orgapi•
zation of the old pro-slavery party, 9d voted
for Colonel Walter Harriman for Goi''erribr,
Deniecra t then, and now at the - head. of his
regiment in the field. In the contest soon to
come off, in lititch, there will be but two
tickets; that supported by the friends of the
government and the war, and that nominated
,by the leaders who are: opposed to both. If
the people of New Hampshire wer)zs.sound and
loyal in the former election, : , subsequent
'events ought to make Ahem even more thor
ough and enthusiastic on the same side. The
choice of a United States Senator to serve for
six years from the 4th of March, 1865, is de
pendent upon the result, and will give ani
'nation tollin canvass:
“Revolutions Never Go Backward.”
The One-lane - al Daily Tines quotes this
maxim, itnd then adds that other sublime
declaration, "Wu= TEM GODS WeitrLD DE
STROY, Mgr FIRST MAIGE,MAD. In couneCtion
with the great rebellion, this madness of peo-
pie :who to do vrong, is peculiarly
•
applicable. Itswas sheer *madness that drove
the elaveholders of the South to rebellion,
1,994
wi:thout any iust cause,- and the destruction
of slavery is lititv beyond - all manner of donbt.
The haughty and insolent assurance
,Which
characterized all the rebel leaders said and
did in the beginning of. the war, the contempt
they everywhere took occasion to show• for
the power of the Government, and" theloy , al
people of the Nbrth, their_unscrupulous dis-
ll'olig4t , and audacity in seizing and appro
priating the property. of the Government in
the Soutlx----all mark•the madness which then
ruled the hour at the South. Everything
was parried with a' high hand. .Soberness
and.moderation, "which, with determination
ancl-firmness of purpose, are always necessary
tO carry through a great revolution, were .
wholly unknown in their counsels. 'Ste • all
remember, how the intelligence that President
Lincolnhad•issued a proclamation for seventy
fire thcinsand men, was received in the rebel
congress, then in session at Montgomery,
Alabama. What merriment it occasioned the
members of . that grave and auguit body, and
what coarSe'jasta" it was-made the subject of.
How different Were the feelings of the loyal
people of the North, with the prospect of the
country being plunged in a civil war, Every
loyal heart was deeply impressed with a sense
of the awfulness and magnitude of the crisis.
Nearly three years of war have elapsed, and
the confident vaticinations indulged in by the
Southern: leaders . of the speedy triumph of
their cause, have not; and are not likely now
to be verified. The so-called confederacy has,
been - bisected by the valor of our troops, its
armies are now hedged in by loyal troops in
less than one-third of.the territory rebel lead
ers set claim tti,.and the final collapse l of the
rebellion is undeniably near at 'hand. The
heart of every loyal man is rejoiced now at
the certainty that the old flag will soon wave
over every foot of rebel territory, while the
rebel leaders must now feel ill at ease, as
every day now brings nearer the grasp of the
avenging hand of justice.
"Revolut'ons never go backward." Itevo-
lutions always produce great changes, and
these changes are always favorable to human
ity and liberal ideas. No great civil war ha 4
.occurred for centuries that has not resulted in
benefitting humanity, by correcting oil abuses
of society, or, at least, mitigating;the evils of
it. How very little do we find in the 1111WSI
papers pobliaed three or four years ago which
accords with the ideas prevailing now respect
ing slavery. Even what wire called anti
slavery journals tken were filled with protes
tations that' there was no design on' the part
of the people of the North . to interfere , with
slavery in the South—that. the Government
had no power to interfere with it, &e. • These,
journals represented the most advanced anti
slavery sentiment in the North at that time,
if we except the handful of Garrisonian Abo
litionists in New England. How 'far behind
the spirit of the times are, such sentiments at
this time ? The great civil war in this coml..-
try, which is now fast coming to an end, will'
not proVe an exception to the rule that revo-.
lutions always result, favorably to humanity.
The slaveholders rebelled in,Order to establish
'a -government, with slavery as its f'corner
titone,".that : they..might forever
,perpetuate
`theirpeculiar institution, which they felt was
reptignant4o the spirit oflhe age, and their
rebellion will certainly end with the destme
,ticin of 'slavery and in giving 'freedom to four
millions of bondmen. •%. :
The Tories Don't Like .Gen. Gantt.
The: etty spite displayed fin:- Gen. Gan
an old line Democrat and a repentant rebel,
by
.419 Tory press of the North,, and particu
larly by the Tory Organ, has more of a mean
ing than most, people will at first be . able to
comprehend. The tories hate Gen. Gantt, be
cause, in becoming true onea more to his
country, he becomes a traitor to Democracy.
True to the" Democracy and - false to the•coun
. .
try, is the, standard of the Tory leadeis and
as Gen., Gantt has repented of his errors and
is now seeking to make amends for the past, it
is 'Lahti.' al,that the Northern sympathizers with
treason should assail and traduce him, and, if •
possible, 'counteract :the influence which he
may wield -on the actions :of the masses who
still cling to the organization of the Demo
oratic party. But in going deeper bite the.
Motives of- the Tories, we are ; led to; discover
that 'they have `a perhonal object is view
bi endeavoring to iiripeach the veracity. of
Gen. Gantt. It will be remembered that
while the repentant Arkansian spoke to the
people iuthis city, he declared that he: had in
'his possessiOn the names of the Pennsylvania
PemOcratic leaders who had encouraged the
South to rebel by offers of assistance as. soon as
a Southern &'niy was' put in tile ...field 'to assail
the. government." Since that deClaratiOn, every
Democratic leader and the : entire' Tory press
Of the Coinmonwealth; have been busily en
gaged in tiadueing and maligning Gen. Gantt.,
The object is to break down the repentant
yebel—to destroy him in the estimation of the
people, end .if possible impair. einAdenee
him, before he makes the , diselesArew he has
threatened with reference to the encourage-
Merit. which -the Democracy have given the
rebels. Aif these letyleis and organs can suc

agine that they will save themseliesfromthe
indignation which a disclosure of their con-
nection with tzeaimii „
.viri?uld _call down upon
their heads. The game is - a bold one, but we
have a notion that it won't win. Gen. Gantt
will yet summon the men in . the North who
assisted in kindling the fais.of a bloody civil
war to assume their share oi the responsibility
of the fearful work:. Abuse andlibel.will not
deter him from hiS holy labor. - Hence the
Tory Organ, might as well end its abuse 6 - f

IM
GARRETT Divis, of Kentucky, occupied, the
larger part of a - recent ..,session of the U. S.-
Senate, in proving that Massachusetts was as
bad two hundred years ago as Kentucky is
to-day. If Davis Can prove that Kentucky
will be as Out, a State, in two hundred years
hence, as Massachusetts is to-day, in all that
relates to the intelligence and the dignity of
a nation's greatneas, its industry, he will be
accounted the, greatest logiCian of the age.

THE PATENT DOUBLE TUBE PIPE.
very popular Pipe has now been in
troduced into this community. Its peculiar merit
=sista in the use of twto tubes, major the smoke alone, and
the ether 'for the past de of the saliva =dui:ohne to the cup
at the bottom whence it is discharged. The smoke being
thus kept clear of contact with saliva is always delicious
and pure , in its odor, and the collected matter which ren
ders all other Pipes offensive being entirely removed, the
Pipe will always continue sweet and agreeable. In the
cities of Baltimore and Washington where thousands have
tested its merits,. amongst the Editorial notices are the
following: .
The Batmen American says:—This Pipe has many .of
the qualities of the costly Turkish "chibOnk," giving .to
the smoker the pure exhalation of the tobacco, free from
its noxious nicotine. ..
. . .
The Daily Gazelle MYst—lts economy and the greater
usury it. imparts while smoking, recommend it favorably
o all lovers of the weed.
The Daily Clipper rays:—Wpossesses merits never .be-.
fore obtained in Pipes.' There is no doubt but that in a
short time it will be the only Pipe used.
For sabilry the.dealers generally M this city, and whole
sale at liberal rates, by "The Tobauco Pipe Company,” at
their manufactory, ho. r Granby street, opposite Pratt
Street Bridgd,

new system. This material Is entirely different from all
other cements used heretofore, and is the- only reliable,
imperishable coating for outside work. Mixed with pro
per proportions of pure Linseed Oil it forms a solid, dura
ble adhesiveness to Brick-or Stone Walls, making a beau
tiful, fine water proof surface and finish equal- to Brown
Stone 'or any color desired.
