•THE.IBSHE BEFORE THE PEOPLE.
In ordinary times, the approach of the usual
fall deaden is never regarded as of any more
iniporfance than the success of individuals
whose merits or demerits fit or unfit them for
station or confidence, On this account, the
contests of partieki never rose much . higher than
a rivalry betiWeeu individuals, unless it was in
such cilia as iti r vOlved the policy of government
througlilegislation, which made it necessary
that none but the ablest and most reliable men
should he clothed' with legislative power. Our
local elections were the contests thus creating
jealousy and rivalry, while the more general
and state elections only involved grave and im
portant issues The election which is fast ap
proaching, is of both a local and a general im
portance r ,being the election of members of the
coming session of the Legislature. This body
must either l.e secured to co operate with :the
staiegoVernment, to enter cordially on the pros
ecution of its plans, arrangements and organiza
tion, or the military operations of the state will
bel. crippled if the commonwealth is not hue:di
-2
toted and disgraced. Fie administration of
Gov. Curtin must be sustained, or the useful
ness of the forced:Of the state will be abridged,
and its_reeourcsalurther to second the efforts of
thefederalanthorities entirely destroyed. This
the seetetsympathisers with rebellion under

many of the districts and counties in- the state,
purposely to defeat Union legislative.-candi

majority inlhe legislature against the state ad
ministratlowi We trust that the Union men of
Pennsydrania:undenitand this subject, and we
trust also that they will vigilantly guard the
ballot boxes from any imposition on the day of
election. ;:The friends of the state administra
tion,and the friends of the Union are the same.
They must labor to secure a decided majority in
the legislature favorable to that administration,
which means of course favorable to the policy
of vigorously prosecuting this war until the re
bellion and - every rebel in the south are =shed
out and conquered. •
The Union men of the state must rally at
once on this subject. The issue involved is
plain and practical. If the administration is to
be embarrassed by a majority against it and its
policy, confusion must of course ensue.—
The cliques which now rally against the state
and national administrations, would desire no
greater triumph than a majority, however small,
in the legislature. It would be a greater ad
vantage to the rebels to have the legislature
controlled by Breckbaridge Democrats of the ilk
which compose the legislative candidates in this
county, than the possession of Washington city
or a destruction of the blockading fleet. This

THE ENLISTMENT SYSTEM.
Since the commencement of the struggle in
which the country is now involved, a great ri
valry h as s p run g u p in the business of enlist
ment, while officers who receive commissions to
recruit regiments or brigades, seem to consider
that any stratagem will be justified and ap
proved, which facilitates the organization of
military bodies. So completely has the convic
tion taken hold of the minds of military aspi
rants, and so wholly infatuated have they be
come, that they forget there is a degree of order
and decency to be observed in the recruiting of
troops, which is insisted upon alike by discipline
and dignity, and made necessary to preserve the
character and respectability of the common
th,of, ;Pennsylvania. • The people_ Cif the
ioltA Xeyete4 it ate are not unwilling to serve
ttireletifirtil goverment; but it is almost time that
the state authority is interposed to prevent our
Most worthy sons and valient soldiers from
being seduced from their , first duty , to them
helves and their commonwealth. That the an
thoritiea are being imposed upon is made evi
dent almost every week in the fact that com
pany after company and regiments added to
Inigades, are being recruited within the territo
rial limits of the state of. Pennsylvania, to be
Mustered into service is the contributed quota ,
of other states. While this is going on, and
states like New Jersey, Tennessee, Kentucky,
Delaware, ,California and the western portion of
Virginia, are recruiting regiments in every part
of Pennsylvania, carrying off our very hest men
by a system of mean and cowardly aspersion of
the state, it is becoming; a work of the -most
discouraging labor to recruit thenecessary num
ber of men to fill up the requisition of the
President on the Governor of the state, Slid if
the impoaition knot soon stopped, we will find
ounrelves behind in the contribution of service
to the federal authority, as well as deficient in
the credit and glory which belong to those who
thus serve their country in the hour of danger.
So far as Pennsylvania is , concerned, the gov
ernment of the United. States is well aware that
her people are all willing to support that gov
eirunent to their fullest extent, but on the prin-.
ciple of state, pride, and a just regard for those
domesticinterests which maintain the dignity,
of all commonwealths,. it is time that thet. Ex
ecutive authorities take such notice of.these im
pbsitions as will effectually put a stop to them,
and,leave the people of Pennsylvania to con
tribute their aid to the federal government in
such a I:thinner:inf. will redound to the . benefit and
Safety of, ihe nation, and also the glory and
credit of the Keystone state.
There are two:good reasons to preyent a Penn
sylvanian .from• entering, the service of the
United States through theauthorities ofany other
state. The War Departthent, in:the first place,
has made it"i "ride:that:all troops hereafter to,
be mustered into: the. service must pass.througb
the Adjutant-General's office of the state which
contributes frac i li forces to the federal army.--
The volunteete who:enlist in Pennsykvania and
go into other states to be mustered into the ser
vice of the iltdtbd.States, forfeits all the boun
ties and pensions brOiridal by our state. This
is a grave conaileration :for a Pennsylvanian,,
but thereis astill higher reason iyhich should
deter hiu, froin-thus leaiing his state to enter
the army.l . "By a State laW,eYery soldier who
Was a citizen of the state of Pennsylvania, prior
to his enlistment, is entitled to vote for any of
the officers in the cotmty in which he lived at
the time of his enlistment, as well as for judi
alai and state officer& The law provides for the
holding'of an election in Eivericarap that may
contain a Pennsylvania. regiment, So that every
soldier can cast.his vote as his preference may
dictate. But if he leaves his state to serve in
the recruits of another conimonWealth, he is de;
birred of thistacred privilege of:a freeman.—
His citizenship can only date from the time of
his enlistment, and from that period to the
electionin nest. - Ca/lea would not cover the time
necessary,te'qualify,bini :flan voter, and thus
he disfranchises himself by his own act, while
he also forfeitsthe bounteous benefits
his state hatiiirovided march 'under
its harmers to the , defimce of the integrity and
stability of the federal government..
While we respectfully ask that the authori
ties enforce the law on this subject, and thus
protect the real interests and honor of the state,
we also ask that the yoUng andllturdy men of
PennsylVinia ponder tbese facti and protect
themselves by jealously clinging to a common
wealth in which we all haye a common heritage
and a common glory, and to which •we owe also
a common duty.

FROM THE FEDERAL O.APITAI,.
Correspondence of the Telegraph
I had the pleasure to-day of taking by the
hand my young friend Col. Joseph Knipe ; also
Capt. George A. Brooks and Lieut. E. Whitman.
The regiment landed in the capital about three
o'clock this morning, and marched up the Ave
nue as far as Wocdward's building, where it
stayed until about twelve o'clock, at %hien
time the boys packed up and moved east of the
Capitol. They will likely be quartered there
until they become proficient in drill. Fur
healthy and stalwart looking meu few regiments
can cope with the Forty-sixth ; and I feel satis
fied that when the time for action comes no
corps will render, better service.
The secessionists during the past week are
playing sad havoc with the property of Union
men within their lines. I conversed today
with a man from Fairfax Court who es
caped from the clutches of these - 'barbarians a
few days ago, leavhis wife, two children,
and an infirmi ing
rnotherbehind. Since he eluded
than, he has learned that his family was turned
out of doors, his furniture completely demol
ished, and his dwelling (acquired by years of
hard labor) burnt to the 'ground. The man
Was penniless, and almost diStressed to death,
not knowing the whereabouts of his
beloved flock. They stoop to any low measure
to advance their unjust cause ; assail the aged
and infirm, and inflict injuries upon defenceless
women and children, and still these incarnate
fiends call themselves humane and civilized.-
Let them 'beware. For that offence fell the
Tarquins—for that offence were swept away the
l)ecemyirs—and for that offence the nobte bkod
of the whole Southern race may flow like water.
Cur - pickets, too, are ruthlessly shot dOwn
nightly by the semi-barbarl Ms, contrary to all,
civilised and their dead bodies carried .
away as trophies, and Perhaps danced around
as exultingly as the savage Indians do ovtr the
scalp of the white man. And how much walla:
ble blood has been spilled this manner horn
the time that the gallant sons of litassaeluisetti
Were murdered in the streets ',of . Baltimore,
and the' bullet from the 'aridasSin'` Weapon
pierced the heart of the noble ElLiworth. There
is an awful day awaiting them; and in the next
battle our soldiers will cry out `as.Rienzi, the
liberator of Rome did, when the Colcittna struck
the fatal lance into his brother'il breast, "re- -
venge ! revenge! I will have revenge, ,though
the gods frown upon me." Give them neourtr

Union men, and like the tyrannical Nere, fiddle
While they are burning, lay waste our pro

The Knoxville Whig.ot the 7th inst. contains
a Card from Hr. Brownlow, designed_ to correct
some erroneous notions that prevail in regard
to his position on , the ,war question. .He says
he entertains the same position he always has of
"the heresy of secession and the leading men
who brought about a dissolution oi_ the Union,:
and of the motives that prompted them," He
"can never sanction the one nor confide: in the
other. He wishes: it Understood, however;
that, inasmuch as he is not a "candidate fur
martyrdom or-imprisonment" during the war,
and has been overpowered by the action of the
State at the ballot box, and by the strong arm
of the military, he has determined to "moderate
in his tone," to "cease the course of warfare"
he has waged, and to "yield to the necessity
upon us—A necessity none of us can avert."—
After pledging himself to devote more attentiOn.
hereafter to giving his readers the current news,
he - says :"I have fought editorially, as long as
I could accomplish anything by fighting, and in
my retirement. to a position of neutrality, I car
•ry 'with me my unchanged rim:ides, and shall
cherish them to my latest hours in life !" He
further adds :
"So far as I am individually concerned, I will
not be a party to any mad scheme of rebellion,
gotten up at this late day, or to any insane at
tempt to invade this end of the State with Fed
-6.41 troops. And any portion of the Union
Tien of East Tennessee who may be crazy
enough to embark in either enterprise, and suf
fer utter ruin, as they are :bound to do, shall
not, when "the times of these calamities; be
inerpast," reflect on me for having advised
such a course.
"I have many old friends and co-borers in
the Union cause, dispersed throughout East
TeMzessee, who think that I ought weekly to
pitch into the State and the Confederate Govern
ments, and into everything and everybody con
nected with Secession, regardless of consequen
ces ; and the more so, as I conduct the only
Union paper left in the Souhern Confederacy.
Not being impressed with any such 'sense of
duty, I most_ respectfully decline the honors
and hazards of so brave and independent a
course. And if there is any gentleman in the
Union ranks in this end of the State, who is
desirous to try his hand in it, I will
cheerfully_yield him my position ! But before
he embarks, as a new beginner, I will apprise
him of the fact that we are in the midst of a
fearful revolution and rebellion—that the civil
law has given way to military rule—and that,
if he is fool enough to attempt ' such a corinfe„

A iebel deserter, in charge of a guard from
our advance regiments, came into our camps
yesterday. He ran from Munson's Hill, the rebels
pickets shooting after him, into our lines, with
uplifted arms crying to our men, "For God's
sate, don't shoot I" Being asked whether Jeff.
Davis was living or dead, he said, "I saw him
on Monday near our camp, and," he added,
"fieauregard and Johnston wire both at• Mun
sou's Hill day before yesterday. the whole
rebel force now under them is believed by the
men at Munson's Hill not to exceed 100,000,
and the reports which. have reached them of the
folmidable character of our fortifications in
duces. the very general belief that an attack
ton Washington would soon prove tuinous to
the rebel cause."
' Being asked, ," When does Beauregard intend
to make an attack ?" the fugitive replied, "ad
vance upon Washington! Why he is- tearful
eiretur day of yout advancing upon him, and
is shared by his army:" , -He also said,
confidently, that several regiments had gone to
Western Virginia within a few days. This man
hilly corroborates the statements of• the insuf
ficiency of food and clothing. For a long time
the rebels have been eating sea-blscult, with oc
casionally bacon, of a mighty poor quality. •
