THE UNION-THE CONSTITUTION-AM
THE ENFORCEMENT OF THU LAW.
HARRISBURG, P.A.
Friday Afternoon, April 26, 1561
Tea PaoPouliot to make the Governors Of
the border states the arbiters between the trai"
tore and the government, is simply ridiculous.
There can be no arbitration of crime clearly de
fined and absolutely perpetrated. If the border
states desire to do their duty—if the Gover
nors of those states are true to their oaths and
their allegiance, let them offer troops to fight
instead of profering terms to conciliate treason.
This is their duty—this would have been their
glorious destiny had they not given way to
passion, and sacrificed the good they had al
ready achieved with all that was in store for
them. Let Tennessee and Kentucky renounce
the . suspicion which already attaches to their
. positton—lot them speak for the Union, and the
government will be better served than by the
WO* ofr their wisest terms of arbitrament. As
this war progresses, we mud expect to hear
just such. offers made, and more particular-
ly as the cause of treason begins to loose
its attraction and its sanguine hopes
of ultimate success. We canexpectto hear from
those states which have been silently abetting
treason, almost all kinds of propositions to af
ford an opportunity for the traitors to escape
with their chivalry unblemished and their
crimes uncondemned. But we have too much
confidence in the sternness and majestic 'jus
tice of the administration. They must hold
these traitors to their sworn work. They must
either compel them to surrender uncondition
ally, or crash them on their own conditions
and apostacy. Between frank enemies there
are always terms of peace. Between a pure
government and traitors and assassins, there
can be no terms but humiliation, confession
and obedience, or subjection and the gallows I
How NOBLY does the effort of the present re
fute the estimate of the past! The people who
seemed dead to all patriotic feeling, and alive
only to the chances of stock speculation and
the profits of huckstering bargains and sales,
have suddenly thrown off the fetters in which
Mammon seemed to have bound them, and
stand nobly and grandly forth as true men,
willing to scatter ; their lewd gold, to forsake
their profitable avocations, to pour out their
vary heart's blood—and all for honor and prin.
ciple. Not in all history, ancient or modern,
can a brighter page be 'found than that which
these loyal States have within the fortnight in
scribed in letters of living light upon tha world's
record. The three hundred at Thermopyke
have been the theme of poet's praise and ora
tor's eulogy—but what was their nobleness of
deed compared with that which a thousand
times their number of American citizens now
undertake? They were forced by hostile inva
sion into the deadlybreach. They hadto choose
between risking life, or submitting to the total
devastation and subjection of their country.—
They fought knowing that fighting was the
only other alternative to the enslavement of
themselves and their people. Oar alternative
is less imminent. Nobody supposes that we
have subjection and conquest to apprehend.
Jeffebton Davis would be only too glad to let
us alone if we would let him alone. We fight
not compulsorily, in personal self-defence, but
voluntarily, freely, spontaneously, preferring
poverty or death, or any and every personal
risk, to national dishonor.
(hottest LAW, of New York, has written a Ist.
ter to President Lincoln, in which he expresses
the general sentiment of this community when
he notifies the Government that we will . not
submit to being cut off from communication
with Washington, through Baltimore. Mr.
Law's word will prove as good as his bond,
and that would be good for several millions.—
Mr. Lincoln may judge by this letter in what
estimate the conservative merchants of New
York hold pedantic twaddle about using the
troops for the protection of the Capitol only.
We understand that Mr. Law is ready to go
down to Baltimore with a fleet of hialown
steamers, and shell the city on bis own account.

TIM UNION.
When one looks over the merits of the ques
tion now affecting the Union, however much it
has been discussed, it seems to assume a new
shape with each observation. A new form of
interest and importance in its favor, and a
grander and holier appearance in all its fea
tures, which render it almost an object of di
vine veneration and regard. The formation of
the American Union was not to subserve the
objects of a single race or the purposes of a brief
century. The principles which entered into its
structure were for eternity, as freedom is im-
Mortal—and the spirit and design with which it
was first invested looked far into the future for
their full realization, and depended upon the
acquiescence and co-operation of men for the
dispensation of their blessings as they progress
ed in developing the capacity of man for self
government. The Union of these States was
not the result of the revolutionary war. The
revolution was rather the result of the Union.
The humble band of Pilgrim, freighting the
Mayflower with a preciolie load of gallant hero
ism and lovely virtue, formed a Union before
they had reached the cold rock of Plymouth to
omsecrate its purposes to the benefit of man
and the glory of God. The Union of the Ame
rican people therefore commenced long before
the first gun was fired at Lexington—thee prin
ciple of this Union, the germ and influence
from which has since sprang a mighty nation,
controled and animated by a love of God.as
well as a love of Liberty, being coeval with
creation.
After the revolution and from the formation
of the Constitution, the Union of the American
States as a nation, began to attract the atten
tion and exoite.the wonder of the governments
of the world. It sought no conquest beyond
the success of the liberty which it proclaimed,
and thus the more astonished the rulers of the
Old World,aa they wielded power only to aggran
dise their reign and their families. Government
then, was a vast co-partnership of oppression
and robbery, in which the titled classes lorded
and controlled the mighty mass of men, and
and fixed their destiny for evil or for good. A
government based upon the principle of univer
sal suffragei was regarded not only as an im
possibility, but esteemed as one of the extrava
gances into which the ignorance and ambition
of politicians too often lead comunities of men.
But being based on that allegiance which is be.
gat by challenging the confidence of men, char
ing with them equally its benefits and burdens,
making each responsible by constituting all
participants in its executive and legislative
functions through the indirection of the fran
chise, it was not long before our present form
of government, instead of exciting the wonder
and astonishment begun to win the admiration
and applause of the world. Even before inde
pendence had been achieved, the government
of France was willing to lend its aid for colo
nial success—and by doing so French statesmen
only proved the apereclation of a principle,
which has since mere than once driven tyrants
from the throne of France, and for a brief
period seemed to intoxicate the French people
with the glories of a Republic. This principle
has even extended beyond France in its awaken
ing of the energies of men during the struggle of
that eclesiastical reformation in which the or
ganization of society was so fearfully convulsed,
and from which has sprung so much freedom
of thought, speech and action throughout
Europe. More than ever this we can claim for
the principle of American Union. By its in
conmgement Poland was sustained during
many years of its bloody struggles, and Greece
imbibed her latest inspirations from the same
source for that liberty which it was her ancient
glory and reknown to defend. Let us too con
nect the gloomy past of Hungary as she grasp
ed for a glory such as invests our Union, nor
fail to see in the struggles of Italy, offering
her all for Union, an example given by the
American Union, but which alas, the rashest
of the American people would now destroy to
satisfy the passion of an unholy revenge, or
mollify the shame of a just disappointment.
It is useless for us to trace the benefits con
ferred by the American Union on the American
States. History has faithfully performed the
teak. Our own experience, our own progress,
and our own prosperity illustrate how effectu
ally a union has enabled the people of this go
vernment to improve and advance in every
good and noble purpose. The States which
now rebel against the authority which it en
joins, and which have distracted and disturbed
its harmony, have themselves reaped the most
benefit from this very principle of Union, be
cause without union the Cotton States must
have yielded to a worse revolution than that
which once made of St. Domingo a vast field of
gore and death. If it had not been for this
Union, the mouth of the Mississippi, instead of
being in the hands of traitors and assassins,
would now be filled and controlled by French
fleets. If it had not been for this Union the
key to the Gulf would have been in the pock
ets of John Bull. If it had not been for this
Union the gold of California might have been
glittering in the crowns of European kings and
princes instead of overflowing the coffers and
Rockets of the bankers and people of America.
If it had not, been for this Union we might
have been allslaves,while to defend slavery this
glorious Union is now so ruthlessly assailed and
bitterly denounced. Trace its history from the
landing of the Mayflower, to the firing of the
first murderous gun at Fort Sumter. Trace it
too from that sublime hour when our fathers
pledged their lives,their fortunes, and their sa
cred honors to maintain its grandeur and I
glory, to the dark day when avarice and ambi
tion induced treason and ingratitude to plot
its downfall. Trace it through all its struggles,
through all its expansion and contributions of
good, and then answer whether life is worth
preserving after such a compact has been suffer
ed to perish? If the union of these States is
not worth a struggle, if the principle of this
unity is not worth defending, then has man no
purpose but to groan, and no object but to die.
But we have a higher' hope than this, and a
nobler destiny than in the degradation of a dis
membered Union. TEAT WILL AND NOT BS

THE FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION has excited
the impatience and condemnation of the New
Yoik press, because it has been proceeding
cautiously in its movements, and perhaps for
the better reason, that its plans and designs are
kept from the sensation traggeraticmists of New
York journalism. Abraham Lincoln and his
Cabinet have been doing all that it was possi
ble for men to do under the circumstances.—
They were necessarily compelled to deal first
with the derelictions of a past administration,
before they could concentrate their force and
deal with treason. Never before had the re
sources of a Government been so recklessly
abused. Never bad its defences been so fla
grantly neglected, or never in the whole his
tory of any Government, did the parties in
power so completely abandon themselves, some
to theft, others to treason, and others again to
inaction, as did the members of the past ad
ministration. When Abraham Lincoln was
sworn into power, he scarcely knew whether
the man who administered the oath intended to
submit to his rule, or whether the officers on
duty that day would defend or attack his per
son. Every department in Washington was
tainted with treason and swarmed with traitors.
It was necessary for the government to get rid
of these traitors, before it could consolidate its
power or repose confidence in its strength.—
With the army- almost in revolt, it was neces
sary to proceed in investing Washington city
with a force sufficient for its protection with
the utmost caution. In this business the Secre
tary of War, with the counsel and assistance of
Gen. Scott, his been busily engaged, andthere
fore it was deemed expedient to permit the
mob at Baltimore and Montgomery for awhile
to enjoy their triumphs. But as Washington
is now considered safe, we have no doubt that
the newspapers of New York will be satisfied
with sucb a demonstration on the part of the
Government, as will afford them all a splendid
opportunity to display their " bold face" in
the most startling "heads."
We have great confidence in the ability and
determination of the administration. We have
confidence in their wisdom and patriotism, and
confidence, too, that when they have once fully
gathered and grasped the entire .military
strength of the loyal, they will hurl it against
the traitors in the seceded states, in a manner
to leave no doubt in their minds as to the mag
nitude of the power they have provoked. We
owe it to ourselves and the government to
avoid questioning in matters that are yet nn
divulged, and confidently await the action of
those whose oaths, as well as patriotism, will
lead tbem to the discharge of their duty. We
can, we should, we must trust the administra
tion, and enter enthusiastically into its sup
port, if we desire to see the country restored to
peace, and the Union to permanency.
ONS OP TUB Wonsr failures in the crisis
of secession, is the persistent manner in
which the border states have been resist
ling the idea of the government arming for
the suppression of treason. It is now a well
known fact that Virginia began to prepare for
secession as soon as South Carolina had raised
her banner of revolt, and that the Maryland
mob has ben giving free passage through that
State to every traitor and every spy who have
been wending their way to Washington for the
last three months. Not a word was uttered
against the secessionists using the railroads of
Maryland, not an objection was made to the
telegraph flashing their treason to Richmond
and Charleston, but the quiet attempt of the
government to march troops through the same
territory has been resisted by this same mob
with the plea that it was intimidation and an
invasion of their sovereignty. Maryland will
survive . to see the day that she will bitterly
regret her present course. She no longer de
serves that fraternal recognition which once
made her insignificance so respectable in the
Union, and now renders her so utterly con
temptable while almost beyond its limits. The
government and the people have both become
weary of trifling with Maryland mobs. The
people of every free State in the Union feel the
insult and ingratitudea of both Virginia and
Maryland, and the day is not far distant when
both will be summoned toa reckoning, not of
conciliation and compromise, but of stern satis
faction and explanation.
Tas QUBMON is often asked, what is to be
come of Jeff. Davis and his associates in crime,
who have organized this rebellion against the
authority of the Federal Government? If they
are tried by the laws of their country and just
ly dealt with, every man will be hung. They are
all traitors, and the doom of treason is the
halter. The Government has but one alterna
tive in this matter, provided, these rebels do
not escape from the country. If Jeff. Davis
does not imitate the example of Santa Anna,
whom he so muck resembles in chicanery
and cowardice, and seek refuge beneath the
shadows of some of the petty thrones of South
America, he will end his days on the gallows
as certain as justice prevails after order and
government have been restored in the South!
Nor will he bs the only traitor thus meriting a
felons death. His associates and his abettors
in the North and the South will come within
the same range of the law. While we are
struggling now to counteract the influence of
these desperate men, it is consoling to reflect
that their treason will end in ignominy and
death, while the Union will survive for glory
and eternity.
•
Tau Rum or ma NORTII is grandly as well
as poetically described in the following stantas,
which we find unclaimed and nncredited in one
of our exchanges :
Thank God ! the death-like, strange repose,
The horrid paralytic rest
Is ended, and a nation% breast,
Fired with the old-time spirit glows !
A people long grown servile-necked
With bowing under Mammon's yoke,
Its bondage on a sudden broke,
To-day stands haughtily erect.
It is as when the valley heaped
With dry bones, at the Prophet's wqrd,
A wind miraculous had stirred;
Such Life from seeming Death has leaped?
No more supine, wetiaitorous foes
Trample her ugh er prowess mock,
But, roused Sir Battle's rudest shock,
When Sun#4,4o 'the North arose !
THE CAUSE OP THE SECFDERE is the cause of
the traitor and pirate. Two acts constitute
this fact. Secession was unprovoked. Where
it originated, there could no wrong be ad
duced for Re justification, and in places to
which it has since spread, it is only maintained
by the wildest fury of the mob. This makes
it treason. Revolution without cause of wrong,
or without any object of immediate social or
political benefit, is a species of treason worse
than that which would betray a nation into
the bands of an enemy. That enemy might
be tolerant and humane, and the betrayal
might be accompanied by some act of mercy
to the betrayed; but in the rebellion which is
sought to crush the liberties and arrest the
destinies of this nation, there is neither act of
mercy, hope of elevation or prospect of jus
tice. It is the boldest attempt at the estab
lishment of an aristocracy, that ever pre
cipitated rebellion on a peaceful people. Its
principle is cowardice —its rule of action,
that—and its purpose the destruction of the
good it cannot emulate. In this secession em
bodies piracy. Starting with the avowal that
war was not intended, all its energies were
strained in warlike preparations. The chan
nels of trade along an extended coast were ,
cruised in by the vessels in the possession of
the Seceders, watehing for the unsuspecting
merchant marine of tne North—and when this
vigilance was about to fail, the President of
the traitors issued letters of marque, thus vir
tually inviting to their assistance the pirates
of the world. What better evidence do we
need that the cause of secession is the cane
of traitor and pirate?
TREY RAVE A Smastaalr way of silencing pa
triots in the free South, which should be very
refreshing to the benighted North. The CoUsti
Stales, a leading secession organ published in
Memphis, Tennessee, thus deals with those
who dare to think and speak like men on a
subject involving their welfare ;
" We have received several communications
censuring and disapproving our course, and
we now inform them that for the future we in
tend to give to the public their names, resi
dence, together with some of their treasonable
sentiments. We care nothing about their
"support"don't want it.
For the information of the credulous we pub
lish the following extract of a letter, which we
received from New Albany, Pontotoc county,
Miss., of date April 12th. We have the afore
said letter on file in our office for the inspection
of all who may wish to peruse it.
"I shall pay my taxes to this new govern
ment, erected without my knowledge or con
sent, but as I have no reason to hope for good
results from a government that was conceived
In sin, brought forth in iniquity, and baptized
in perjury, I do not want a paper that approves
of the course. I especially dislike to be bought
by new converts.
Respectfully, yours, &c.,
M. WILSON."
[COMMUNICATED.]
The extraordinary unanimity with which
the people in the interior of Ponnsylvania has
responded to the calls of the President and
Governor of the State, has created no little
astonishment in the minds of all classes.
Parties we have none; but one exists, and that
is for the flag of• the Union. Republican or
Democrat we never bear mentioned. Party
lines are completely obliterated, as State lines
must, in a measure, south of Mason and Dixon,
till this contest for law, order and the suppres
sion of treason is decided. Th. ra must be no
tampering or dallying with secessionists, but
the might and energy of the Government must
be put forth to maintain law and order. The
majesty of the laws must be sustained at all
cost. The South is rushing madly to their
own destruction and that of their own cherish
ed god's. The dark spirit of slavery which
bas so long ruled is their councils is , working
out their own downfall. It is impossible that
a war, such as this, can be carried on without
the uprising of the oppressed and down-trod
den of the African race throughout the entire
South. These hot-spurs of ambition are sleep
ing over a magazine that tile slightest touch of
the torch of freedom will7blow them to atoms.
We warn them with the example of St. Domin
go before them of what their fate will be, un
leis they return to reason, and submit to the
enforcement of thelaws of the National Union.
But they will none of this. They are rushing
madly to their own destruction, and there will
be no peace till the bone of slavery is banished
from the North American continent. Then,
indeed, can we take the position we should
rightfully occupy as a nation of freemen.
