IMPORTANT MEETING
4.,meeting. of the Governors of the northern
and north-western States, took place at Cleve
land on Saturday, at which the Governor of
Pennsylvania was present. The object of the
meeting was the discussion of the present as"
pact of affairs, and the more completely to con
solidate their forces for the purpose of giving
the National Administration the most efficient
poasible powerful aid. It was deemed expedi
ent by the Executives of the different States, to
carry the war forward in the most vigorous
manner—to march on the traitors, and on the
vary territory of treason, meet and exterminate
those who were at the head of the rebellion
against the National Government. The ex
change of sentiments between the Governors
present, exhibited the glorious fact that the
people of the free States are a unit in their oppo
sition to the rebellion, and their determination
to maintain the Union at all hazards.
MOVEMENT OF TROOPS
The movements among the troops are be
ginning to be of a character at once to lead ns
to the,anticipation of the most active measures
on the part of the Government. A demonstra
tion will certainly be made either in Maryland
or Virginia before many days, when it will be
decided whether the rebels or the legitimate
government shall be regarded as the controlling
power.
Three hundred and fifty cavalry left Carlisle
t*lttioissing for; ork and ,Baltimore. These
tincpil,4lth f thoie concentrated in York and
others that will join them on an understood
line of 'Operation, will constitute one division of
an army that, is to approach Baltimore from
different points for the purpose of opening a
patine di rectly through that city to Washing
ton. The work of opening such a passage will
not be allowed to be retarded by any opposi
tion. The city of Baltimore itself, rather than
otli*oope should fail, will be laid in Babes.
*di a Private letter .receivid in this city,
we learn that the greatest activity and enthu
siasm prevails at Fort Pickens. There are now
abOnt 800 men in the fort, while the Powhat
tan is at anchor near Pensacola. The writer
states that as aeon as certain arrangements
have been completed in the fort, the Powhat
an will be signalled, and at once proceed to
steam in the direction of the fort. It she is
fired upon from the batteries on the beach, the
secessionists are promised a response "which
will alter their estimates of Uncle Sam's for
bearance and power." The writer seems to
think that a great loss of life will result from
the fire from the fort on the secessionists en
trenehed on the beach.
REPORT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL.
We print on tho first page of this afternoon's
Temnsamr, the report of Adjutant General
'Addle, giving a list of the companies that
`brave been sworn into the service the United
44tes, and also the number of companies of

will atainfitha their organization in the mean
hold themselves in readiness for any
emergency that may arise in the future. This
Jorge surplus force is an illustration of the de
'Potion of the people of Pennsylvania to the cause
tethe Union, and may be taken as an eamestof
'what they intend to do when the conflict for

t bs,bosse in mind that the tender of. so large a

indiliat the peremptory order to receive no

TEE FRIENDS OF TIES SOLDIER
We on Saturday published an appeal from
Miss Dix, which was read yesterday from most
of the pulpits in this city. On Inquiry, we find
that the appeal must have been based on a
state of things as they existed some days since.
There has been great want of clothing by some
of the Pennsylvania companies at Washington.
The State authorities, learning that this want
was not supplied, as was expected it would have
been by the General Government, directed that
clothing be sent on immediately. The wants
enumerated by Miss Dix have, therefore, been
anticipated by the State. If not already fur
nished, every soldier sent forward from Penn
sylvania will in the course of twenty-four hours
received from his State two shirts, two pair of
drawers, two pair of woolen socks, one pair of
woolen pantaloons, a woolen coat, one pair of
shoes, a cloth cap, a blanket, and, as rapidly
as they can be made, a heavy woolen
over coat. This list we believe includes
substantially all called for by Miss Dix. We
also learn that the last report from the
Surgeons accompanying the Pennsylvania
troops, is, that very few are sick, and that
the sick are provided for most comfortably.
The soldier when he takes the oath of allegiance
becomes the child of the government. Its faith
is pledged to him for his support. There MEWL
be some mistake in supposing that oar govern
ment, powerful, rich and liberal as it is, means
to rely on the public charities of its citizens for
the discharge of one of its own first duties,
namely, the proper cars of the sick soldiers.
While we appreciate and honor every attention
given to the soldiers, we doubt whether the
charity of our people can not be more wisely
directed, than in furnishing that which the
government will cheerfully furnish, and which
it is as much its duty to supply, at its own cost,
as it its duty to furnish bread and meat to
the soldier that is well. The soldier can con
fidently lean on the strong arm of the govern
ment for all he needs. This is not so with his
family, and with the poor thrown out of em
ployment In consequence of the war. In the
proper care and relief of these there is ample
room for the exercise of that enlarged charity
for which our people are so justly eminent. In
relieving these humble ones there is lees of
public eclat, and it can be done with less risk
of appearing ostentatious ; and therefore we feel
confident that the really charitable will prefer
scattering these gifts among the poor, who are
too often forgotten because we have them al
ways with us.
Suntans OP PENasszvsrue : You bave en
listed in the cause of your country at the first
summons of your Chief Executive officer, and
you now only await the order that bids you
march to the battle-field. You have not en
listed to meet a foreign foe, to hurl him from
your homes or drive him from your shores.—
You have not enlisted to enter on a crusade of
invasion, to dross the boundary lines of na
tions, to bear your glorious banners among
strangers, and plant them in the capital of
kings and princes. Yon have -voluntarily come
forward to contend with treason. What more
malignant enemy could we imagine than a
2iaitor, and a traitor, too, to the purest princi
ples and the most generous government that
ever demanded man's support and man's obe
dience ? Those who have arrayed themselves
against the free government of the United
States have done so, not because they are
weary of its obligations, but that they are
jealous of its glories, and fearful of its devel
opments. They seek to renounce their oblige
gatiorur, by asserting false charges against
the good they cannot emulate. They deny
the right of labor to a voice in the
government, whose only sources of wealth
are in the industry of the people. They
blaspheme freedom, by declaring that slavery
is the only true basis on Which to organize so
ciety. They insult God by the open perversion
of His truths in their attempts to make His
word responsible for the crimes which theY per
petrate in the name of civil and religious lib
erty. in a battle like the one in which we are
engaged, we must strip the pretensions of our
enemies, and exhibit the enormity of their real
designs to the world. Wemust not hesitate to
trace the coniontion to the cause, nor pause at
any honorable and just measure that will bring
our enemies to retribution, our country .to re
pose, and the freedom that is our right to the
glory and power that are its due.
Solders of Pennsylvania ! you must be pre
pared for the brunt of war and the summons to
conflict, every hour hereafter. The time al
lotted for treason to lay. down its arms has
passed. The time for action on the part of the
Government' has arrived. There can be no
more parlying,' no more diplomacy, no more
appeals to gratitude and allegiance. , The Gov
ernment of the United States must rise to its
former power and influence in a very few days,
or it must sink into the oblivion which is) the
fats of
.all imbecile nations, and cease to be an
object of either fear or respect The hour. of
action has arrived! Those who have arms in
their hands mustt•fight. Let all be prepared!
Let those who are'ln,the rank be prepared for
a death struggle; let those who are yet , unen
gaged be prepared to take the place.of tboae
who fall for "God and our Native Land!"

Tug READINESS To REPUDIATE manifested by
some of the southern states exhibits another
tendency of secession which will act power
fully in its favor among the honorable business
men of the world. When the merchants from
the states thus recommending and legalizing
repudiation, come to open accounts elsewhere,
or attempt directly to engage in the importa
tion of such necessaries as they were accus
tomed to purchase in the north, the manufac
turer across the water will inquire why it is
that the new purchaser does not buy at home. It
will be no excuse for the southern repudiator to
offer as an explanation, that be is at war with
the merchants and manufacturers at the north.
Trade recognizes no enemy when necessities are
to be supplied through the medium of com
merce; and therefore the British and French
merchant will inquire into the credit of these
strange customers. The branch houses of
Philadelphia, New York and Boston will not
be slow in advising their European partners of
the credit and standing of every southern re
pudiator, so that when he enters the markets
of Europa he will be forestalled by his own
dishonesty, and driven from foreign mercantile
circles as an imposter and a swindler. sOnr
southern false-pretenders will find, when it is
too late, that the way of the transgressor is
hard. They can of course cheat their northern
friends, by whose credit' they have for years
been maintaining false mercantile positions;
but when they commence to carry their custom
abroad, and in the end to practice the same
repudiation, they will discover that fraud has a
limit, even among traitors and seceasioniste.
Tug Manumit who are hurrying the southern
states forward in the most atroc ions acts of re
bellion, seem to forget that they have a foe in
their oan midst. They forget that there is an
enemy crouching at their own fire-sides, hover
ing over their shrinea,and prowling around their
altars. They forget that they are surrounded
by a race whom they have oppressed and de
graded—out of whose bosoms they have blot
ted every emotion of.humanith and in whose
hearts they have planted and cultivated the
instincts of avarice, barbarity and revenge.—
All that the slave in the south knows of liber
ty, he has learned at the stake, when the fire
was at his throat. All that he knows of pas
sion and prejudice, he has been taught by his
master, while wreathing in agony and blood
beneath the thong and the lash. He has been
taught to believe that the northern man was
his friend, and all his hopes of redemption were
composed of a wild dream that a northern
army would some day march to his relief. He
has been impressed with such thoughts and
hopes by the fiery persecution with which
northern men are hunted down in the south.—
But little has the slave dreamed that the era of
his redemption would be Inaugurated by the
enemies of his race. Little has the philanthro
pist, or the most bitter and fanatical abolition
ist, dreamed that the emancipation for which
they prayed or indiscretly battled, would grow
out of the treason, the rapine and the murder
of the south itself. The ways of Providence
are strange and mysterious. His will is in all
things. Let the traitor, therefore,, beware.
The BORDIM STATI 'disunicinists think they
are fighting against the Abolitionists of the
north, when in reality they are straggling for
abolitionism in their own midst. Let Mary
land, Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky and Mis
souri go oat of the Union. Let them line
their borders with bristling bayonets and omi
nous rifle muzzles. They cannot atop the silent
influence of example from reaching their peo
ple. They cannot prevent their slaves from
crossing an imaginary boundary to gain their
freedom. They mayshoot them on the line, and
yet the ball that ends the life of the fugitive
inaugurates his freedom in a fairer hind than
any he has dreamed of, either in the north, the
east or the west. The only hope for all the
border states is in the Union. Out of the
Union danger and death await them. The olv
ilization they cherish will become in reality
the barbarism they now feign to abominate.
R will make them more bankrupt than they
are, and eventually compel• them to submit to
the rule of a confederacy that , already holds
them in distrust and contempt. The course of
empire is in and through the border states. It
is for the people of those states to decide whe
ther it shall spread its blessings and its-ener
gies through their, communities, or whether
it shall march around, and leave them to the
neglect engendered by their own passions and
prejudices.
Baownow, the famous fighting parson, is
pouring the most effective batteries of hot shot
into the ranks of the secessionists, a specimen
of which we give in the following :
Dm Fun Baoinna.—The Devil was the first
secessionist" e 4 rer known, and he seceded from
a better government than the leaders of our
cotton states did, but from the same motives.
"Rule or ruin," was the platform of both.
Here, for the most part, the people have been
fifed and drummed out of the Union, and de
nied a Toice upon the subject. The same spirit
actuate secessionists wherever they may. le
found. Had Bell or Douglas been elected, ihe
same state of things would now be upon us.
These Southern conspirators intended all this
mischief, and they have brought it about. The
southern Democracy are to blame for all this
thing.
PATIIIOTIO INcinara..--At the Boston meeting;
to summon recruits for Fletcher Webster's regi-'
moot, the following telling incident occurred :
The chairman notified the meeting that subscrip

promptly came forward'and said, "This is from
Stephen Decatur, sir." It proved to be a check
for $lOO. The father stood by and proved to
be blind. He is an officer of the navy who
lost his sight in the service, and a nephew of
CommOdore Decatur of the last war. Nine
cheers were given which made the balls ring.
Five thousand dollars were Immediately sub
scribed for the regiment, which is to leave this

MISCELLANEOUS
THE ARM' or VLBOINIA.—" The State' of
Virginia can bring into the field at least a him
dred thousand as brave men as there are lathe
world, accustomed from their infancy to the
we of arms, and ready and willing to lay down
their lives in defence of their homes."—Rwh
mond Dispatch
There is no doubt the State of Virginia can
"bring into the field," in a certain sense, 100,
000 men, for the adult whitesof her population
are nearly 200,000 in number. But the ques
tion is, can she arm, clothe, feed and pay them?
There's the rub. To arm, equip, clothe and
supply with munitions of war 100,000 men will
cost, at the moderate rate of $lOO per man,
$10,000,000. Their pay, at the rate of $l2 per
month for privates, and the usual pay for Dili.
cers will be $15,000,000 a year. Their , sub
sistence, at the usual allowance of 80 cents a
day for rations, will cost $11,000,000 a year.
Here is a total of $86,000,000, without reckon
ing the cost of artillery, of horses, the keep of
horses, of transportation, and of the numerous
contingent losses and expenses of troops in ac
tiud service.
Now, bearing In mind that, by withdrawing
half her adult whites from peaceful occupa
tions, the productive capacity of the State is
greatly diminished ; that by the blockade of
her ports her commerce will be destroyed so
that no revenue can be raised except by direct
taxation; and that she has no credit, and can
not borrow a dollar out of her own limits,
what prospect has Virginia of raising $86000,-
000 a year for purposes of war, beside enough
to meet the ordinary expenses of Government?
Her total receipts from all manner of funds
and taxes for the year ending September 80,
1869 were $4,326,649 67. Her expenditures
for the same period were $4,222,533 81, "and
her public debt was $40,386,669 48 ! It is on
resources such as these that the slaveholders
of Virginia have plunged into war with the
United States, and It is on such a basis that
they calculate upon keeping in the field an
army of 100,000 men !
It may further assist these gentlemen who
prate so glibly about a force of 100,000 men,
to understand what they are talking about, if
we suggest to them that the appropriations for
the army of the United States for the year end
ing June 80th, 1861, were $14,966,637 66, or a
trifle less than $16,000,000. The year before,
the appropriations were $15,279,846 76. Now,
by the official returns it appears that the whole
number of officers and men in the United
Slates army was only 12,931; for, though the
number authorized by law was about 18,000,
only two-thirds of that number were actually
enlisted. If, therefore an army. of 18,000 men,
not engaged in serious warfare, costa in this
country $15,000,000 a year, tt appears by the ,
rule of three that an army of 100,000 would
cost for the same period $115,000,000. By the
same rule, Virginia, with a revenue of $5,000,
000 annually, would find it bard work to keep
in the field, beside paying her other expenses,
6,000 soldiers ; and that, we think, will prove
to be the limit of her ability.
