A new order of men are beginning to assume influence and control in the government, and when they have fully taken possession of the Legislative and Executive branches of our 'sys tem, then there will be peace in our midst, and confidence and respect shown for us once more abroad. For sixty years the government has been in the hands of the consuming classes.— We were accustomed to be ruled by men who looked upon the mere system of government as one of the obtuse sciences, which could only be defined and mastered throu t ih the intricate paths and influences of diplomacy. The con sumer was regarded as the prop of the govern ment—while the producer remained unappreci ated, neglected, and often despised. Every act of legislation seemed to tend from, instead of to the benefit of the masses, until at length the people, weary of being deprived of their full share in the power of the government, inaugu rated a new order of politics by breakingdown old party association and bends, and erecting for themselves such platforms and policies as they deemed most conducive to their prosper ity; There is no doubt whatever that the revolution in politics has had much to do with the rebellion in the south, because the changes which have been made in northern society within the last thirty years looked to the ele vation of all labor, and made the mechanical genius of the people the highest boast of every community. The development of society in thefree states was another source of evil to threvetrogade movements in the South—and thus as power after power arose in the path of this• new order of men, their influence and might could Ito longer be misunderstood by the influence which so long controlled this government. Hence the rebellion. The power which had monopolized the patronage of gov ernment for so many years, could not give it it up without a struggle; and hence again, the pretext and ‘ hypooritical plea of suffering, wrong and persecution. There was no wrong ent4lained din the south, no objection made *the masses of the people in the north par ticipating in the franchise as long as the pa tronage 9f government was distributed among the people of a few particular states. But when the labor that sustained the government as serted an equal share in its patronage and emoluments, the rights of those who had grown fat in places of profit were suddenly jeopard ised, and could not be re-assured and secured by any other means than by a rebellion, which the rebels would have the world believe is a revolution to correct error and vindicate the truth. When will there be peace f When labor is re cs*Lised as the source of our prosperity, and the mere possession of wealth not made a merit among those who aspire to govern. When this ikdone there will be peace—and until it is done there will be an irrepressible conflict, banishing ay , ~ hope of peace and harmony in society es well as government. This is not aggrarlanism. Ilia not the refusal to acknowledge the achieve mutts of men, or to recognize their superiority so far as their success is concerned. It is the titian:done to effort and ambition, the encour moment to honest purpose in that which we desire to have recognized—labor. Wherever labor has been recognized and encouraged, litotes and communities have prospered. Where ,fie reverse has been the practice, and labor *been degraded by oppression and neglect, yieme i teie evils of ignorance and indolence have Alm ttes molt. Let the states that are in re isollicm cultivate and encourage free labor, and s abot lOU % sooner vindicate themselves from wrong th,u they can by carrying on a hundred campaigns, or fighting a thousand battles. Let, Maryland, Virginia, Georgia, Kentucky, Ten nessee and Missouri build up a system of home -mechanical production, by the encouragement of free mechanics, and they will soon rank with proudest and most powerful Commonwealths the north, set at rest the Idea of aggression, Mel inaugurate a peace on this hemisphere which will be undisturbed by any competition or jealousy that can possibly originate among themselves: Such a peace as will be secured by , the complete harmony of our institutions wilB „the dream of those who conceived and put "into operation our system of government Who • Aaron pa will live to enjoy its blessings ? 1 , 4• l7 l l lo, if fter sacrificing : ,his honor and his ordamdence, has been contemptuously _thrown 'aside with's, commission of Brigadier General, which Davis knew he could not accept. He kW' t90.10W for scorn. His degradation can excite no feeling but pity. THE GOVERNMENT. There is something noble in the present po sition of the American Government. On the 4th of March last, when Abraham Lincoln as sumed power, he found the Government in the utmost possi hie confusion, and in a condition verging on anarchy. Who can imagine the scene, when, at the first meeting of his cat net, the different secretaries informed each other of the real condition of their depart ments? The Treasury was empty and bank rupt. The Interior Department was in the hands of thieves, its bonds scattered among the speculators of the country, marked as worth - has by the felonious manner in which they were procured. Traitors held the avenues to and from the War Department. In the Navy Department the Government bad scarcely a true friend. And thus throughout all its, branch es, the President and his cabinet found them selves surrounded by such difficulties as were never cast into the path of any body of men called to govern a great people. In the midst of these embarrassments, the great masses of the people demanded therestorationof the Gov ernment to its ancient position of respect for law and 'order. With this delinwi ringing in the ears of the administration :tame another of au insolent character, demanding audierice fur the representatives of rebels, and threatening, if refused, the demolition of the administration and the overthrow of the Government. His tory will deal with these facts at some future period; but as we view them now, and particu larly when we behold the first sign of the re turning powe'r and majesty and force of the Government,' we would be ungrateful and un just if we did nut express the highest admira tion and applause for those who have been thus instrumental in rescuing the country from its impending ruin. In two months the Administration have suc ceeded in partially crushing a conspiracy that had been in operation for a quarter of a centu ry preparing for the final subversion of the American government. In two months they have literally reorganized the Union, gathering its scattered strength, repairing its broken bonds, restoring its lost credit, and giving har mony and alacrity to its forms and proceedings throughout all its branches. The history of no other government that ever existed contains the record of such achievements. The record of conspiracies such as was at work in this gov ernment exhibits bow triumphant they .have been, and low successful they were in the over throw of power that was often upheld on the shields and the bayonets of immense armies.-- But in this instance it has been crushed out as much by the firmness of.the Administration as by the use of any mere force. The mere display of military power did riot so much irtimidate the conspirators as did the declaration and as sutance of the Government that they would enforce the law and oppose its violation at all hazards and all extremities. In the eyes of the nations of the world free government has been fully vindicated. The ac tion of the Administration of Abraham Lincoln has fully demonstrated the power and efficiency of free institutions, and the capacity of the people for free government: At the first: call of the President for aid, the response from the loyal Slates at once dispelled the fear of the spread of treason. The Government was smite in the confidence of the masses where the mob was not dominant to overawe the spirit of alle giance. Even in the states most affected with trea son there was a strong Union feeling dormant in every community which was prevented from expression by the most startling intimidations and threats of danger and death. But this, too, is fast giving way, as in the case of Mary land and Western Virginia, where the friends of the government are openly proclaiming their determination to maintain its authority, and where the government itself is fast asserting its majesty, and wielding the power guaranteed to it by the Constitution under which it exists With these facts before us, we deem it our duty to accord to the administration of Abraham Lincoln that approbation which is the due of the faithful and patriotic. We deem it our duty. also, to point the people to the same facts, and ask them to join in thus approving the la bors of the President and his cabinet. At we now revere the memory of Washington as the father of his country, may not those who come after us respect the memory of Abraham Lin coln as the vindicator and preserver of that country. TRH CAM' 01 =VTR. In the severe trial through which we are now passing, the government of the United States has the truth for its justifkation of allthat it at tempts. When we point to the rebels, we canny conscientiously, that it is true they are attempt ing to subver t the influence and destroy the pow er of the most liberal government on theiface of the globe. We can declare that it is true, and be sustained by the facts, that the leaders in this rebellion are all men who have been par ticipating in this government Officially for the last thirty years, and therefore, if the govern ment has become corrupt, it is true that these very men, the men who now make treason the, pretext for their attempted revolution of its errors, were themselves the authors of its cor; ruption. It is true, too, that nosection itt this Union has been equally benefitted by direct aid from the federal government, as the section in rebellion, and therefore the truth that they are adding ingratitude to intrigue is as apparent as the truth of their conspiracy is abhorent.— Louisiana and Florida were purchased to satisfy the spirit which nolr assumes the attitude of revolt. The protection to free labor was abridged and almost abolished to appease the same element of disobedience. The war with Mexico was provokeffiby its insolence. And it hasbeen accustomed eofar to miry its dictation and demands, until it has culminatedin an act of treason against thesevernment of its own cre ation. Pampered, petted and,praised,,the peo ple of the slave states did not any longer regard themselves as responsible to , government.

The truth of this rebellion is in the ingratitude of the rebels. The truth of the opposition to that rebellion, lies at the foundation of our gov- ernment, and constitutes our main strength as a people and a nation. It is obedience to the authority of the law—respect for she legitimate system of our government, as contained in its orderand justice: - With - this truth the admin istration of Abraham Lincoln Is panoplied. With its force, and power and mighty influence, it is determined to sustain the government. Thus may truth ever prevail in our midst, to the confusion of traitors and the destruction'ot = TRIF NORTHERN CENTRAL RAILROAD. The wanten destruction of property on this road .by the people of a city who were most benefitted by the running order of the same, has induced the company to remove the ac counting office, shops of construction and re pair and other establishments conntcted with the enterprise, to the city of Harrisburg. No- tics has already been given of the removal of the accounting office, in the following card : In consequence of the interruption of ac cess to this citf via the Northern Central Rail way—the principal bridges between this point and the Maryland line having been burned— I have been directed to transfer the business of this office to Harrisburg, Pa., to which place all communications in reference to the acoonnts of the company must be addressed, until fur ther notice. By order, J. S. Lars, Treasurer. All the machine shops in Baltimore, under the control of this road, have been closed,.and from intimations contained in our Baltimore exchanges, we learn that it is not the intention of the company immediately to rebuild the bridges that have been destroyed, and that it will take six months to put the road between Baltimore and the Pennsylvania line, in com plete repair and running order. The damage sustained by the company is not less than three hundred thousand dollars—a bill - Which the good people of Maryland will be com pelled to pay by their own courts of law. The addition of the Northern Central Railroad shops to the business of this city will b9,yery important. This was the original point best suited for such a purpose, and here their shops should have been located at the commencement of the enterprise. We have more facilities of supplying material for construction at this point—it is a cheaper and healthier locality of abode for mechanics than Baltimore, and being located almost in the centre of the road itself, it is the proper point for the operations - of the company.. Layiog atide the necessity of the company by danger from mobs and incendiaries, the policy of removing their accounting offices and shops to:this ,point is justified by a desire of economy se well as geographical advantages over the southern terminus of the road. HAD TREASON TRIUMPIIIID, what would have , been the result? This is a question which con cerns the workingmen and mechanics of the country, because the conspiracy that has so long been organizing its forces in the South, was concocted to abridge the power and limit the influence of the working classes of the United States. Had it succeeded, what then ? All labor would have been brought to a com mon level, and made entirely subservient to the absolute control of capital. It would have been shorn of its franchise, embarrassed hi its development, arrested in its progress, and si lenced in its voice in all the councils of the' government. By such a treatment the degra dation of labor became Inevitable. By its de gradation, the arguments egainsts Its participa tion in the government would acquire force, and thus the aristocracy which animates this rebellion, and which basis its right to rule on the justice of slavery, considered that its eventual triumph would be universal and complete. All the wrongs that the rebels com plain of, are constituted by the fact that the workingmen of the country were becominF too powerful Slavery objected to the growing in fluence of free labor, and demanded its suppres sion or restrictiort: The occupation of the territory of the nation by the free mechanics of the north and east, was another wrong, another evil in the estimation of the supporters of sla very—and from all these evils, the awful evil originated of opening territory to the labor of freemen, of making it the refuge of freedom, and of consecrating it entirely and orever to free speech, a free press and a free pulpit. Had this rebellion succeeded, these dreadful evils of freedom would have been crushed as slavery crushes all the instincts and aspirations rof humanltf. Had rebellion ex panded and succeeded, the free North worild have been degraded—the teeming West blight ed, and the industrious East enervated by an association with slavery, because as sure as the secession flag of. the rattlesnake had 'unfolded it length and breadth from the domes of the federal capital s the black flag of slavery would have been floating froni the cipital of every commonwealth. in the land. Who can doubt that such would have been the result? Who does not rejoice at the escape from its shame and turn with gpttitude to the power that his saved arr.o pronitees, to preeprk us eq a nation Tuts Hutu to-day .indulged In an ardmated and lengthened debate+on the. definition of the word accoutrement r and the dispute was beginng to assume a I#ost, serious character, when a member called for Webster's Dictionary.

From Armstrong Valley [wrreqponoence of the Telegrap4,l J.6,oraioNvium, April 27, 1861. "STRIPES AND STARS" IN PAUL'S AND ARMSTRONG VALLEY. Our business brought us to Park's eastern store, in Paul's Valley, on the evening of the 26th of April. We were not long at the place before we learned that there was to be a 'flag" raised later in the evening. Of course we ar ranged matters so as to be present, a number having come from a good distance. All pre sent`were very enthusiastic indeed. Cannons not being accessible, several anvils were load ened and discharged, the echo of the report of which was heard seconds after, as it bore "o'er hill and dale" the testimony of the people's love for the UNION. Several bonfires. were lighted, and hearty cheers given for the "Stare and Stripes." On the following evening we came to Jackt sonville, in Armstrong Valley. At which place when we arrived, we feeind the peopleaf the place and, vicinity busily engaged in preparing to airspeed a "Bed White and 81ue, , " in siz, 16 by 13 feet .. All lendinga helping hand, the work was soon accomplished. This being done; it was suggested and agreed to that we would raise another. ,Among the most active and en thusiastic participants of this worthy enterprise is one of our present Directors of the Poor, Simon Daniel. On Saturday, the 27th inat., we again at tended an ausemblage of the inhabitante.of the same place, Jacksonville- and vicinity. The object of the meeting 'was to organize a guard to protect or guard our homes, . There were several hundred Falzon - present, about forty of whom were immediately murdered into a i rank and drilled about one hour under the com mend of Captain Johnir.. M'Gann. .Then thel company proceeded to the school house in said town, where an address was delivered by Dr Nonamaker, of Fisherville. Many loud and hearty were the cheers given for Major Ander sow,' Brave soldiers, and the Union. The regulatioUS :for the future government of the aforesaid company were made, read and adopt ed ; officers'elected, and a vigilance committee of eight was appointed to investigate the charges preferred against' two men of the vicinity, who seem to favor the courre..takerf by the South. People In favor of the. South who desire to live would better not too freely express their opinion In this neighborhood. The company as raid was formed for the pur pose of protecting-theimmes of the people, and therefore it was kuggpsted and sgread to that the Company should - reoeive the name' "Home Guard.'
