THE PATRIOT AND limos, this morning, could
not restrain the exhibition of its love and wis
dom on the subject o the present fearful crisis.
The old allies of democracy in the 'South must
be defended and sustained, and, therefore, the
policy (1 hinting at the possibility of the pres
ent uprising of the people iu the free states
eventually resulting in the overthrow of the
institution of slavery, must be used to preju•
dice the cause of those who are struggling fur
the Constitution and laws of the land. We
should like to know who else but the advocates
of slavery are engaged in this treason against
the country; and for what Aber purpose but
the establishment and spread of slavery in all
the states of this Union this rebellion iis now
urged on and encouraged f if we du not hum
ble and curb the slave dtiver and slave hunter,
how are we to secure the defences of this Union,
and maintain it in its perfection and perpetui
ty? We might as well say to the mob at Bal
timore, "gentlemen, we are not Sghting you—
don't throw another stone, but please allow us
to pass to the capitol." And when we reach
the capitol, should Jeff. Davis chance to cross
the Potomac, we should assure him that fight
is not the word. This would please the Pa
triot, because it would shield its old friends.
But it will not satisfy the people, who have
gathered from every corner of the land. They
are determined to humble and crush the In
fluence that has been scourging female
school teachers, hurling preachers from
the ,pulpit, Impaling freemen for their
sentiments, silencing the press, renounc
ing patriotic allegiances, lighting torch
es for the federal capital, and swearing
before high Heaven that their traitor and pi
ratical flag shall supersede the stars and stripes,
and float from every capital in the Union. We
must not oppose or molest such an enemy, for
sooth, declares the Patriot. It would be so
cruel to say to the ruffians and estuaries who
uphold slavery on their bloody hands, and pro
claim its Divine origin with oaths and intfire
cations, thus far shall you and your institution go,
ADVANOB ANOTHER STEP AND von BOTH PERISH ?
This war is for the Union, and the destruction
of all its enemies. That which assails the
Union must not be permitted to exist. We
cannot compromise with those who are now op
posing the federal authority. Toe terms of
settlement must come from the power that has
been outraged. The guilty must suffer the
penalty of their crimes.. Those who have been
misled and deceived, must throw down their
arms, return to their allegiance, and do pen
ance by devoting the remainder of their years
In devotion to the Union: The 'cotton statest
must be humbled as low in the deist as are the
mobs of Baltimore). When this is done, the
federal authority will be vindicated. Until it
is done, not 'a single seldier in that glorious

SPECIAL MESSAGE OF THE GOVERNOR.
The following message, communicating a
very important correspondence betwetn the
Secretary of War, Gen. Cameron, Gov. Curtin
and Gen. Robert Patterson, was sent Into the
Senate yesterday. The correspondence needs
no comment from us, as it amply speaks for
itself :
Exscurnra CHAMBIR,
Harrisburg, May 2, 1861.
713 the Senate and House of Representatives of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania:
(lemmata :
In my communication to you, of the 30th of
April, I had the honbi to say that a re:intuition
had been made for twenty-five additional regi- .
ments of infmtry and one of cavalry, for the
service of the National Government. As that
order was countermanded by a telegraphic dis
patch on the evening of the 80th ult., and by a
written order received this morning from Ma
jor General Patterson, I feel it to be my duty
to lay the subject before you for your consider
ation.
The first order made upon me by the Federal
Government was for sixteen regiments of in
fantry, which, by a subsequent order, was re
duced to fonrteen. That order was filled im
mediately, and I continued to receive compa
nies for the reasons assigned in my message of
April SOth, until twenty-three regiments were
mustered into the service of the United States.
The order from Major General Patterson of
the 25th of April was in the following terms :

I hope the foregoing answers will be sufficient

I have the honor to be,
Very respectfully, yours, &c.,
SIMON CAMERON,
Secretary of War.
I take this occasion to again repeat my opin
ion of the necessity for the immediate organiza
tion and equipment of at least fifteen regiments,
as recommended in my message of 30th April.
Since the change in the order of the National
Government, it becomes more necessary for the
defence of our border, and the protection of
our citizens—who may soon leave the State in
the service of the Federal Government. As the
force directed to the National Capitol will be
very much diminished, it is eminently proper
that a portion of our people, fully prepared for
any emergency, should follow their advance,
and if necessity should occur, march to their re
lief. lam most happy to find that Major Gen
eral Patterson, in the letter communicated with
this message, seems to fully concur in this opin
ion; and an experience and knowledge of mili
tary affairs, with his high command under the
Federal Government, renders any expression of
opinion from such a quarter worthy of the high
est considerations.
I submit these facts which have transpired
since my message of the 30th inst., to aid you
in your deliberations upon the weighty issues
involved,
MISCELLANEOUS
Tam Rescrrzon.—There is evidently a reaction
going on in the public mind of our city and
State, and it is not likely that it will reach its
culmination until the demand be satisfied in
relation to the authorized repair of the rail
roads and the arrest and conviction of the abet
tors and actors of the raid of the 19th, and the
assurance to the General Government that no
resistance of its order was contemplated nor
effected in itaerection of Maryland and the Dis
trict of Columbia into a military district: It is
of serious consequence that any interposition
should be effected between the order and its
satisfaction by the higher powers of govern
ment. The necessity is inevitable of its due
consideration, and it were better done volun
tarily than by force. The city is responsible
for the lawless acts of her citizens, whether
committed by a mob or otherwise, and the pg
riod of accountability most come. It were wis
dom; therefore, to take the initiative at once
and voluntarily, before the matter grows worse
by delay, and the mortification endured that
compulsion must produce.---Bcdfintere Par,,ce
A MARTLAND Ansueoexps.---As,the last
Island regiment came along the route, beyond
Bladensburg, the advance guard of about two
hundred mot two mounted riflemen, who clues.
tioned them closely and asked bow many were
behind. They replied six thousand, with artil
lery. They then asked what were their orders
if attacked. The reply was "to burn every
building, and destroy all property within three
Miles each side of the road " Upon this the
horisemen wheeled and rode off. Scouts were
sent after them, and they were seen to ,join a
body of about two hundred mounted riflemen,
sheltered in the rear by -thick woods, and in
front by the deep ravine which intersects the
route. The regiment passed along and heard
no more of them, though the whole-body were
within ball a mile at the time, and might east
lrhave done our soldiers much damage. Word
wits at once sent back, and in future a mounted
guard will protect the passage of troops.

THE' NORTHERN CENTRAL RAIL.
ROAD TO BE REPAIRED.
Most active preparations are being made for
the further blockading of Southern ports. Ten
vessels of the fleet will, within a week, be at
sea. The entire fleet will consist of at least
fifty war vessels of various description, accom
panied by sufficient steam transports for the ac
commodation of a land force of at least 20,000
strong. Thus it trill provesufficient to make an
efficient blockade of every in let on the Southern
coast, into which any vessel drawing six feet
water might otherwifse enter, while it willdevolve
on the disunion authorities the necessity of keep-1
ing in arms, feeding, etc., distinct armies, suffi
cient to cope with the land forces accompaping
it, in or near Norfolk, Charleston, Savan
nah, Pensacola, Mobile and New Orleans, of at
least au aggregate of 120,000 troops stationed
for the protection of those important points;
alone. That not a bale of cotton or cargo of
other southern production can seek a market
through any southern port, is to become &fixed
fact within one month from this tlay,and with
out the proceeds of 'Wei) oftbeir crops the Dia
unionists will have no Means-whatever of pro
curing military supplies of any description, for
they do not produce or manufacture them, and
the experience of northern merchants would
seem to indicate that the available &empire of
the south is neither silver nor gold, and darkies
are not at present desirable mediums of ex
change.
