THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW.
HARRTSBUIU , PA
Mesta/Ay morning, September 3,1861.
GEN. FREMONT'S PROCLAMATION.
We regard the proclamation of Gen. John C.
Fremont, in which he declares the state of Mis
souri to be under martial law, as one of the
sturdiest, effectual and most powerful blows
that treason has yet received. He strikes the
monster fair and plump in the face. lie deals
with traitors just as they deserve, and leaves
no room for any suture doubt as to his construc
tion and application of a law of Congress de
claring that the real and personal property of
all rebels should be confiscated, and that all
persons found with arms in their hands within
the lines of the federal army, shall be tried by
court-martial, and if proven guilty of hostility
to the federal authority, Will Le shot. In this
solution of what should and will be done with
traitors, lays the secret of our success. In this
stern resolve todeal justly with treason, exists
the remedy for the evil, and when the same de
termination to enforce the simple law of the
land is pmelitned in all the rebel states, the
end of this unchristian and unnatural rebellion
will be materially abreviated, and a peace es
tablished amid which the people will congratu
late themselves on the restoration of order by
the full enforcement and vindic *lion of law.—
The law has not b en applied to rebellion, as its
provisions demand, in any one particular case.
It has not been enforced either by the civil or
military power, even where that power was in
full operation and those engaged in rebellion
within its reach, simply because the hope hqs
been indulged that the reason of mein would
restore their judgement, and that peace could
be secured without the sacrifice of either life,
limb or property. That hope is now entirely
dissipated. The country can no longer indulge
it with justice to itself, and the administration
begins to appreciate the, truth, that order can
only be restored by the Lull enforcement of the
law, and the prompt punishment of traitors as
its provisions plainly presoribe and demand.
The proclamation of Gen. , Fremont fixes the
manner of vindicating the violated law. It
proclaims the mode by which rebellion is to be
crushed, and when the manner and m ode are
in full operation, treason and its causes will
soon decline.
FORMON CONSULS AT THE Scum —The Charles
ton Mercury cannot endure the presence in that
city of British, French, or other consuls to the
United States. It says the , act of secession de
prived their exequators of vitality, and they,
ought now to be told that they are only dis
tinguished subjects of the governments they
represent. The Mercury's ire against thtra is
because the foreign governments will only re
ceive the Souihern commissioners as distin
guished citizens: It says these commissioners
should be ordered home immediately, and the
foreign courts told that their consuls will be
treated with civility as subjects of their re
spective, "countries residing in the South, but
no longer be considered representatives of their
governu.ents.
FOUR Fuss (*OREM WOMEN were whipped in
Baltimore last week, by order of a police justice.
They received ten stripes each upon the bare
back, well laid on with an additional five for
one woman, who is said to have complained
too loudly of the first ten. In the same city
free white men and women are engaged openly
in treason against the Federal Government, but
an oath of allegiance instead of a thong or 'a
lash, is administered as their severest punish
ment. How beautiful are the distinctions of
justice in a christian and civilized land !
By ex ORDER of the War Department the
commissioned officers of all volunteer and mil
itia organizations, no matter whether establish
ed under the authority of a State or of the
'United States, will be regarded as having been
commissioned on the day when mustered into
the service of the United States, and will take
rank in their respective grades, will be entitled
to pay, and to be obeyed and respected in their
several positions from that date,

THE POLICY OF THE LEADERS OF THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY OF PENNSYL-
MANIA
We believe that among the masses of what
was once called "the Democratic party," but
which has since been divided into angry fac
tions and belligerent cliques, there are many
honest, patriotic and loyal men. Bat because
they are such, is in no way creditabge to the
principles of that party, or in no manner to be
attributed to its organic policy or objects. It
is the natural result and influence of free in
stitutions, the effect too of a system of educa
tion and training in the free states, where
loyalty to law and order is made a virtue next
in attraction and value to that of love and re
verence for the word and the name of Him by
whose will alone nations exist and governments
are permitted to wield their power. The men
,whe‘are thus loyal -to the federal power, and
who once compoaed the numerical strength of
the Democratic party, have lost their confi
dence in its creeds, and have long since re
nounced its tenets and doctrines as fallacious and
dangerow3. But the men' who still persistently
cling to that organization, who assume its lead
ership and direct its policy, are as bitterly op
posed to the effort to suppress this rebellion as .
the rebels e e yes are determined to wage
to the . • This is not our mere se
sertion.- It - is 'the statement of a fact corro
borated by the action's 'of these very leaders
themselves, when they proclaim in their own
conventions that they will make no union to
support this' government, and that they regard
this war as an abolition crusade on the rights
and the property of the people of the south.
The policy or the leaders of the Democratic
party in Pennsylvania is to charge the existence
of the present rebellion on the result of the
election of Abrahatn Lincoln. Every intelli
gent man knows how far this charge holds
good, while the rebels themselves indignantly
repudiate such an excuse as too miserable and
insignificant even for their desperate claims.
Instead of their rebellion being the result of
the election of Abraham Lincoln, that election
was the result of the influences of free institu
tions, the result of the intelligence, progresa
and improvement of the north—and to these,
and not the triumph of the Republican party, is
to be attributed the rebellion which threatens
free government. The southern politician and
partizan leader see in these developments' the
inevitable destruction of the institution of
slavery. They beheld in the progress of the
masses'of the north, entering new territories,
erecting new commonwealths, and claiming en
larged and increased representation and legisla
tion, the signs of a new order of society, busi
ness and govbanment on this hemisphere,
fore which their rotten aristocracies and
barbaric institution could never stand. They
discovered that they were retrograding instead
of progressing with the mighty free common
wealths of this Union, and impressed with this
idea, they resolved either to stop this progress of
social and political liberty, proclaim themselves
and their institutions as the ruling influences
and powers in these states, or involve the whole
in irretrievable anarchy and ruin. Bow then
oruls this rebellion be the result of the elec,
tion of Abraham Lincoln? Clow could such be
the result, wken the right of secession is claim-:
ed to have been implied by the Constitution,
and when the rebels themselves claim that they
leave the Union because they: have the right to
revolutionize, and that they wage the present
rebellion, not because they are. oppressed, or
becanse they had no voice. In the authority and
control of the government constituted by that
Union, but because they seek a larger power
for their institutions, a greater development
and progress for, slavery, than can possibly be
gained for it while the slave are. united - in
destiny and government with the free states of
the American Union. -
The policy of the leaders of the Democratic
party in Pennsylvania, is to throw the odium
and the disgrace of this struggle on the admin
istration of Abraham Lincoln—to make the Re-
publican party responsible for its enormous ex
penses, and. to hold Republican principles ac
countable for the danger it threatens to the
American Union. This is an old dodge of these
same leaders = They have achieved :victory for
years by the same system of legerdemain, and
now in the agonies of their dissolution they
seek a practice of their old games before they
sink to the ruin which their own acts have so
long and so justly invoked and merited. The
',men who are playing this gime forget that the
people of Pennsylvania understand and are ac-
Ruaiiited aith the.gameaters. They forget that
all the odium and .disgrace of the Buchanan
administration are yet clinging to their political
positions, and. they forget too, that' the history
of the past points to themselves as the authors
of all the wrongs that have eo suddenly plunged
one section of this Union in rebellion against
the government of the whole. If they desire
to make an issue with the Republican party on
the merits of this' war, these old party hacks
have but to proclaim their principles to be what
how animates all their actions, sympathy for re
' hellion, and the Republican party will go into
that fight as they have gone into this struggle
for the governinent, with all their energies and
1 all their forces, and the masses of the Democrat
ic party, then as now, will stand shoulder to
shoulder with the Republican masses, ready to
do _battle with them at the ballot boxes against,
traitors, as they are zealous to fight treason on
the ramparts and in the entresclunents of their
country. The Democratic leaders cannot enter
on a political contest on any other principles
than opposition to or support of this war.
There are no other issues before the country
than the issue of supportutg or destroying this
government, and when these old Democratic
hacks seek to make divisions and force obnox
ious nominations on the people, they will do so
with the express understanding that :their tri
umph, should such a direful result occur, will
accrue to the aid and the comfort of rebellion !

SERENAD2, TO GENL BUTLER
Further News from the Naval Expe-
Major General Butler was complimented with
a serenade last night. An immense crowd
gathered in front of the National Hotel. The
bind having played the "Star Spangled Ban
ner" and there being vociferous cheers for Genl.
Butler, Gen!. Walbridge appeared, on the, bal
cony to introduce him to the auditory, in: per
fOrming which duty ate briefly spoke of the
combined exploits of Gerd. Butler and Com
modore Stringham, saying the .policy of inva
ding the secession States would. crush the re
bellion and secure freedom and submission to.
the Constitution throUghout , the length and
breadth of the land. He then presented Genl.
- Butler as one whose recent conduct afforded a
harbinger of a glorious:future for the country.
Gen. Butler was..again greeted with cheers
after the band had. performed .."Hail; to the
Chief ;" the applause was enthusiastically_pro
longed. ••, • „
lie said he hail been. far too much compli
merited by expression of the kind.regard of. his
fellow-citizens, but he took it as complementary
to the cause which all love, and for which any
of them were ready at this moment to lay. down
their lives ; it was, therefore, no mere personal
congratulation to him, who, by accident, be
came a participator in the scenes over which
they had rejoiced; they were all ready, as they
cherished the. Union and the Constitution, to
defend them.
To the gallant navy under Corn. Stringham
are we mainly indebted for our success.
Oh, it was a glorious sight to see the soldiers
of the Union stretching their hands:against her
rebellious children. Had you stood on the deck
and seen the Virabash,, Minnesota and Cumber
land come into action, and, looking over the
deep sea, observed the. Favarmatt, which, hear
ing the cannonading, came to take her share in
the contest, and heard the booming of the can

It was a glorious sight to see the:man who was
once an honor to the navy of the United States,.
but had proved recreant to his duty, presenting
his sword as a prisoner, to Commodore String-
Efe.meant Capt. Barron,in company with 715
prisoners on his way to New York.
Mr. Butler was repeatedly interrupted by ap
plause, after describing the battle .scenes he
spoke of the necessity of continuing vigorous
measures for crushing out the rebellion, saying
that with the aid of Jack Frost the king of the
North who would kill off the malaria,that now
hangs over the south, the•forces of the republic
would push zealously on to the contest and not
rest: until every Union mancan enjoy his own
opinion and the rights guaranteed by our free
institutions. In conclusion, he proposed three
cheers for the navy, which were earnestly and
enthusiastically given, and he retired with re
heated cheers.

CURRENCY IN TILE SOUTH -TEES .9017TILININ BANKS
[Correspondence of the iticbmontirsootarerj
Gold and silver are now selling in the South
ern States at from ten to fifteen , per cent. for
current bank bills: A sound and 'uniform cur
rency is as essential to the hes4th and vigor of
the Confederacy and the Government as healthy
red blood is to the power and. endurance of the
body. This thing of a depreciated currency is just
now more to be feared than alt of Lincoln's legions.
It is what ought not to be, and cannot be sub
mitted to by the Southern people.
True to their soulless character and sordid in
stincts, the banks are ready, for a few vile dol
lars, to crush the Government and the people
together.
Are these institutions really-the frit:ids of
Lincoln? Just so soon.. as it..App.:Ns that the
banks are to be allowed to' prey upon the peo
ple at this time, when they are loyally and
patriotically pouring into the public treasury
every dollar they can spare, and bravely look
ing debt and taxation in the face, we shall find
an abatement of seal and a discontent perilous
to our great cane.

1 A Steams STORY ExPLoDtp.—The following
card from Maj. A. M. Sallada, Paymaster lathe
J. S. Army, completely explodes the miserable
story of peculation, and, robbing the poor sol
diers, circulated by seared= papers in Harris-
Ikrg and elsewhere, a fortnight or so ago. We
venture to say that every similar charge, when
Silted, will be found equally groundless :
in justice to myself and the Secretary of War,
I make the following statement, to, refute cer
tain allegations which uncontradicteci, are cal
ciliated to dolt:jury. to the Govertunent.
Under directions of Paymaster General Lam
ed, I went to , /4"i*ku r fti , Pn Monday, the 22 d
day of ;filly, for the purpose of assisting in pay
ing off , the three montha volunteers, who were.
there 'waiting to be intiatefed oat of the service.
4 draft for one hundred thousand dollars had
then sent to me by the /Paymaster General.
pia troops, who were Present in great numbers,
were clamorouatuid impatient for their money.
I could not pay them' in coin, having ' inatte
every effort to obtain it from the different,bank
big institutions' Of Their
anxiety to get home was such that, after con
sultation with their officers, I agreed to pay
them by checks on the ,Treasury,of the United
4ates, taking 'bare to obtain the full approval
othe privayis themselves., . I informed them that
the chichi:Dere not'oitly goat, but they would bi re
deemed in gold.
• In consultation with the officers who were
anxious to turn these checks into currency, I
told them that any of the banks in Harrisburg
would cash them and give them what gold they
could iipaie. - ffy'brother' officer, Major Bruce
Cameron, redeemed about nine thousand dol
has of these checks in specie, but when they
were presented to the Mechanics' Savings Bank,
the officers of which are hostile to General
Cameron, that institution paid out some notes
(as I am 'Wormed) of, the Middletown Bank, an
Institution Whiok etanda io high in Pennsylva
nia as, to be beyond all doubt, and the notes of
',which Were gladly received by the soldiers.
Since myarriyal in this citj , ,l have, learned,
With much pain, that some of the enemies of
"general Cameron have used this fact to his in
jnry. _I have only, to say that I was entirely
ignorant of any intention on the part of the of
fibers of the Mechanics' Savings Bank to pay
OA these notes ; that in issuing the checks
Rion ;the Trienaury, I did so at the earnest so
licitation of the officers and men themselves,
and that they, were as grateful to me for doing
/130
was glad to accommodate them.
Basolmanxia iNsPurite•---A correspondent of
the Shelby Hews, who was present at the late
Om • excitement in Lexington, Ky., says. that
reckinridge was insulted, by ,a company of
nion Cavalry, who came to town to protect
the Federal arms. Here is how it was done :
, Ex-Vice President Breckimidge was very in-.
Agnant. He said to several Union gentlemen:
` 1
"What
must be stopped."
"What must be stopped ?" asked a Union
"This cavalry company—imulting peaceable
oitizens !"
"Ah ! who have they insulted!"
: "Why, me I" exclaimed his excelleAcy.
"How did they - thin:at yen?" inquired the
gentleman..,..
"2914 iimie'ihi AI Y hotel!"

Lt as his associate traitor, "Buck.".
