MEDICAL AP.POIN2MENTS
In the list of official announcements of sur
geons and assistants, the name of A. P. Frick,
assistant surgeon of Lancaster county, was ac
cidentally omitted. The name of C. S. Niddi
fula, M. D., of Montgomery county, published as
surgeon should have been among the assistants.
MOVEMENTS OF TROOPS
UM TECOUSAND MEN UNDER ORDELI AND PRE-
PARING TO MARCH
The call of the War Department for the im
mediate contribution of ten thousand men out
of those now in camp in various parts of the
state, has produced great activity in the mili
tary departments of the commonwealth.. Or
ders have been issued to the following regiments
in Camp Curtin at once to Prepare for departure
hens to such localities as will be indicated by
the War Department before they march.
Colonel Hartranlt's Fifty-first Regiment.
Colonel Dodge's Fifty-second Regiment.
Colonel Brook's Fifty-third Regiment. •
Colonel Coulter's Eleventh Regiment. The
General Order we publish in another column in
relation to this regiment, conveys a compli
ment of which the officers and men of the
regiment may well be proud.
The following regiments in camp in localities
beyond this city, are also under marching or
ders :
Colonel Cake's Ninety-sixth Regiment, from
Pottsville.
Colonel Gttss' Ninety-seventh Regiment, from
West Chester.
Colonel Davis' one hundred and fourth regi
ment, from Doylestown.
It is expected that all these regiments will
leave their various encampments before the end
of the week. The order for the marching of
these troops has given credence to the rumor
that another requisition had been made on
Pennsylvania for an additional contribution of
ten thousand men. No such a requisition has
been received by the State, and of course none
made by the federal authorities.
TWELVE NOTED K eiTtIOKY SHOTS, among
whom are Colonel Thompson, Dr. Bush, Thos.
Clay (son of- Henry Clay,) and others, have of
fered their services to the President as a corps
of sharpshooters, to follow the army wherever
there is a prospect of a battle, and to act inde
pendently. Every man is a noted shot, and has
had practice in deer-hunting for a lifetime. The
party is joined by Colonel Philip White, of
Philadelphia. It is thought that out of this
offer and its acceptance will grow a -fine corps of
men used to border life and good shooting,
whose business it will be to harrass the enemy
by picking off his officers. It is evident that
the rebels at Ball's Bluff had numbers of sharp
shooters, and that Colonel Baker and other offi
cers were shot down by them.
CERTAIN STONY-HEARTED CREDITORS Who hold
old claims against the estate of the late Hon.
Edward D. Baker, who fell while bravely fight
ing for his country, are about to push their
claims and if possible compel the widow to li
quidation. These men all claim to be patriots,
and yet they seek to rob the widow of a gallant
hero. It is well they were not in the room with
the corps before it was buried, or the pennies
would have been missed from its eyes.
Tae REBEL PICKETS on the Virginia side of the
Upper Potomac, opposite Edward's Ferry, were
lining the shore thickly on Saturday, while the
igades of General Bank's division were cross
ing to the Maryland side, and taunted the lat
ter upon their attempt to invade Virginia, in
viting them to pay another visit. They may
repeat the invitation, however, when it is next
accepted.
Tint GOVERNMENT bas received intelligence
from our Ministers at London and Paris that a
very favOrable feeling exists in the governments
of Europe towards the United States govern
ment and its cause. The rebel Commissioners
are still actively engaged in purchasing goods
contraband of war to southern ports.
A Loup CALL.—The following telegraphic
despatch was received in New York city from
San Francisco :

fective service in the held.

Than MORE of the privateers of the Jeff. Davie

Court before Judge Grier and Cadwalader.
THE LESSON OF THE LAST ELECTION
AND ITS EFFECTS.
Immediately after the last election, we re
ferred to the fact that our fellow Republicans,
who had been duped into the support of what
purported -to be "Union tickets," but which
were in fact only disguises of what was really
the most obnoxious combinations of the oppo
nents of the Republican party, would discover
their mistake through the boasting of these
very men as having gained Democratic victories.
This is the boast they are now making, and as
a specimen we find the following extensively
circulated among our locofoco cotemporaries :
"Although it is conceded on all hands that in
the recent election in Pennsylvania the Demo
cracy gained a decisive victory, we have as yet
the figures from only kportion of the counties.
These demonstrate a - wonderful change of public
sentiment in favor of the Democratic party.
The following comparative vote of some of the
most populous counties, will give some idea of
the reaction :
Majorities Majorities

York, 669 1000 1231
Total, 3806 30,68210,600 2220 44,107
"Here is a Democratic gain on last year of
44,000 in thirteen counties!"
The North American says that Philadelphia is
set down in this table as giving now 800 demo
ctatic majority. The whole People's ticket for
judges of the courts is elected by majorities
ranging from 2500 to 3600. Our candidates for
Sheriff and Clerk of the Orphans' Court like
wise have majorities. But if the democrats
were allowed 800 majority now they have made
no gain of 18,000 votes. At the gubernatorial
vote of 1860 the democratic candidate for Gov
ernor had• 1800 majority here, and at the Presi
dential election Lincoln only carried the town
by a little over one hundred majority over all.
The plurality stated above i 6 simply over one
section of the opposition, which had in the field
here no less than three electoral tickets. The
rest of the table given above is equally fallaci
ous. In Alleghany, where the table allows only
200 Republican majority, there was no demo
cratic ticket in the field, the contest being be
tween a Republican and a Union ticket, so that
in fact the whole vote on both sides should
properly be set down as a majority over any
democratic effort made elsewhere. Before these
facts the whole claim of 44,000 gain disappears
entirely. In Alleghany, Chester, and other
counties the democratic party has been swal
lowed up by the Union organization. At the
approaching session of the Legislature this fact
will become tangible, for the Union party will
elect all the officers of the House of Represent
atives, where the democrats have been claim
ing a majority. This party will have a force
there so sweeping as to laugh at all the efforts
of democratic partisans.
PROMOTION FROM THE RANKS.
It is reported that Secretary Cameron has
made up his mind to promote from the ranks
such soldiers and non-commissioned officers as
show by their skill and bravery that they will
make good officers. We are sure that no step
will be received:with heartier approbation than
this by the people of this country ; and certain
ly no better means could be devised to make
our soldiers fight well. But such promotions,
where they are the reward of gallant conduct
in action, ought to be immediate and public.
Let it be understood that to be mentioned in
the despatches of the commander will bring in
stant promotion, and it is not only the regulars
who will win for themselves rank and honor by
gallant conduct. For the present, it would be
a great advantage to many of our volunteer
regiments to have a few steady, cool and intel
ligent non-commissioned officers from the regu
lar army placed among them as company otll
cers; and as Gen. Cameron appears to be in
earnest, we recommend him to fill in this man
ner the places falling vacant every day by the
resignation of incapable volunteer captains and
lieutenants.
We consider this the first movement in the
direction of rendering the volunteer army of
America the most powerful military organization
in the world, and constituting it really a Republi
can system for the defence and maintenance of the
law. Ihe old system of keeping promotion
within a certain line, and compelling it to wait
on death, has been the cause of much
delay in the improvement of the service, if not
the means of preventing officers from emula
tion in that self-improvement on which the
army should alone depend for efficiency. An offi
cer was sure df promotion only as his superior was
killed in battle or died naturally, and therefore
any effort of his own did not redound to his
credit any further than thenotoriety which it
gave him among his class—while the private
soldier, however he might exert himself, and
whatever the labor he performed or the success
he achieved, was still a private, unknown
beyond his ranks, unrecognized by his superiors
and unrequited by his country. In a land of
freemen, such a system was not likely to attract
many daring or intelligent spirits to its service,
except in emergencies like the present, when
the stability of the laws and the perpetuity of
our nationality depend upon the strength of
every individual arm in the land. But as pro
motion is now to be made from the file, the
parvenues who have gained rank by favoritism
or that dull system which cannot if it would,
recognize merit, we will be certain to see the mer
itorious rewarded, and the service elevated to
the dignity and standard of,true manhood. Nor
must we refrain from rendering the justice
which is due to the Secretary of War for having
conceived and promised to introduce this great
reform. It is in keeping with his other prac
tical acts since he has been at the head of the
War Department, all of which have tended to
purge the army of its aristocratic incentives,
and elevating all grades of the service to that
true standard of Manhood which makes all em
ulation and rivalry real virtues.

PENNSYLVANIA ANTI-SLAVERY
SOCIETY.
This body has been in session in West Chester
for several days. The following statement by
Mr. Garrison was put forth by the Society as
their platform. Without any further comment
we publish the document as part of the history
of the times in which we live, and as the senti
ments of a class of men who have always been
distinguished for their respectability and in
telligence. Mr. Garrison read his own state
ment as follows :
Since the last anniversary of the Pennsylvania
Anti-Slavery Society, a violent disruption of the
American republic having taken place, through
the treasonable withdrawal of nearly all the
slaveholding States, which have organized
themselves into an independent Southern Con
federacy, the objects of which are the inter
minable prolongation of slavery, the subversion
of the government, and the overthrow of all
free institutions, by a wickedly aggressive and
desperately malignant war on their part, it de
volves upon this Society to define its position. iu
relation so the present anomalous state of things,
so as to keep its testimonies unimpaired on the
one hand, and to prevent needless misconcep
tion and injurious misrepresentation on the
other.
This Society has nothing to retract or modify
in regard to its object, its principles, or its mea
sures. Always animated by a spirit inflexibly
' loyal to the cause of freedom, and having for
its sole object the triumph of that cause univer
sally, without regard to race, color or condition,
it finds no language adequate to express its ab
horrence of a system which consigns four mil
lions of the inhabitants of the land, with all
their posterity, to the most degrading and in
tolerable bondage—ranking them in the
of personal and real estate property to be
used and transferred like household goods,
brutes to be driven to unrequited toil, and re
cognizing their common humanity only for the
purpose of making them strictly responsible to
their tyrannical masters in all things, under ter
rible pains and penalties. In any other land,
however dark and benighted, the toleration of
such a system would indicate complete deadness
to shame and deep corruption ; but, in a coun
try like ours, claiming to be the most enlight
ened on earth, boasting of its religious and po
litical privileges, and glorying in au instrument
which declares it to be a self-evident truth, that
all men are created equal, and endowed by their
Creator with an unalienable right to liberty, it
presents an exhibition of shameless hypocrisy
and blood-red criminality, wholly unparalleled
—especially attempting, as it does, to find its
justification in the highest religious sanctions,
alike under the Jewish and Christian dispensa
tion. To seek to perpetuate such a system is
the most comprehensive iniquity that can be
perpetrated; to make any compromise with it is
always full of guilt and danger; to demand its
immediate and total abolition is the dictate of
justice and humanity.
The principles of this Society remain un
changed, because they are unchangeable; being
based upon human nature and the law of the
living God, and in defence of which, prophets
have been put to death, and apostles crucified,
and martyrs carried to the. stake, and patriots
executed upon the scaffold. Its measures have
ever been rational, and well adapted to promote
the righteous object in view, and limited to the
exercise of a peaceful, lawful, constitutional
right of protest and reformation, using only the
weapons of reason and argument, for the sole
purpose of establishing the freedom of all classes
upon an enduring basis.
To the malicious attempt, which has been so
extensively made, to identify the secessionists
of the South with the abolitionists of the North,
this Society unequivocally affirms that no two
classes can be more unlike, or more opposed to
each other, in spirit, design and action. The
former aim to give unlimited range and lastims
perpetuity to slavery and the slave trade • the
latter are for the immediate liberation of all in
bondage. Tire former are under the control of
an unappeasable selfishness, a satanic aspiration
for universal dominionism, an imperious spirit
that would "rather reign in hell than serve in
heaven," and striving to break down, as intol
erable nuisances, all free institutions of the
North. The latter are animated by an unsel
fish and all-embracing philanthropy, seeking
the welfare of the oppressor as well as the op
pressed, and desiring to put an end to all sec
tional animosities and divisions by the procla
mation of universal freedom. The former con
temptuously trample the Declaration of Inde
pendence beneath their feet, and boldly give
the lie to its self-evident truths ; the latter
heartily subscribe to that Declaration, as defin
ing the origin, nature and scope of human
rights. The ormer are armed with bowie
knives and revolvers, and ready to stab, shoot,
or hang any abolitionist who may venture upon
Southern soil ; the latter resort to no other
weapon than those of entreaty, warning and
rebuke, meeting all calumnies with pa
tience, all insults with forbearance, all outrages
in the spirit of martyrs. In short, the former
are desperately bent upon mischief, and " full
of treason, stratagems and spoils ;" the latter
are laboring disinterestedly to save the country
from ruin, and fill it with the abundance of
peace, by extracting the only root of bitterness.
As it respects the tremendous conflict now
going on between the forces of the Federal
Government and those of the Southern Con
federacy, this Society, and the abolitionists in
every section of the country, are united in the
sentiment, that the rebellious attitude of the
former finds no justification whatever, but is
marked by every feature of malignity, treach
ery, murderous violence, and savage barbarity;
that it has for its object, not only the perpetu
ation of the human system of Slavery, but the
subversion of free institutions universally ; that
all the allegations brought against the govern
ment, by the conspirators, of designing to in
terfere with Slavery in an unconstitutional
manner, are without foundation ; that, there
fore, the government is simply acting on the
defensive, and endeavoring to execute its con
stitutional prerogatives, in accordance with the
original bond of Union.
But this Society, believing the cause of this
bloody strife to originate solely in slavery, and
in the haughty spirit of tyrannical mastery en
gendered by it, deems it the height of infatua
tion, on the part of the Government and peo
ple, to think of bringing back the rebellious por
tion to loyalty under the Constitution, and ef
fecting a peaceful settlement of difficulties,
while leaving untouched the source of all those
desolating judgments which are now sweeping
through the land. Nor is this a desirable result
Like causes produce like effects. Neither the
old compromises, nor any new ones, can pro
duce harmony, or avert divine retribution.
Our nation is reaping as it has sown. "Ye
have not proclaimed liberty every man to his
brother, and every man to his neighbor ; there
fore, I proclaim a liberty for you to the sword,
to the pestilence, and to the famine, saith the
Lord." To avert still heavier judgments, there
fore—to make a real union of all the States and
the preservation of a free government possible
—it becomes the solemn duty of the nation to
decree the immediate and total abolition of sla
very. The powers of the General Government ,
are ample for this purpose, on its own plane of
action. In anticipation of the present state of
things John Quincy Adams said, years ago, in
his place in the House of Representatives of the
United States,—laying it down as the law of
nations,—"From the instant that the slave
holding States become the theatre of war, civil
servile or foreign, from that instant the
war powers of Congress extend to interfer
ence with the institutions of slavery in
every way in which it can be interfered
with. . . . . Not only the Pres
dident of the United States, but the command
, • itioy OW • .0 1, I. •V•
emancipation of the slaves." From this weighty
authority, there is no intelligent dissent. The
Government, therefore, is invested with the
power to "proclaim liberty throughout all the
land to all the inhabitants thereof," in the
midst of the exigencies of war, and to maintain
its supremacy over the whole country. Those
exigencies now fully justify the immediate ex
ercise of that power. The rebellion is precisely
where slavery exiAs as a cherished institution ;
it is the product of slavery ; the whole slave
population are made the efficient instruments of
the rebels to overturn the Government, and to
consummate their treasonable designs. The
enemy is yet at the gates of the Capitol, threat
ening its security, and keeping the government
in continual peril. All the property held in
common by the nation, within the limits of
the Southern Confederacy, has been perfidi
ously seized, and turned to the support of
this vast slaveholding conspiracy. Hundreds
of millions of property, the amount of south
ern indebtedness to the north, have been
basely confiscated. The nation is Weeding at
every pore. The wail of bereavement is
heard in every quarter; for the slain are
rapidly multiplying, and every day witnesses
fresh victims falling on the battle-field, struck
down by the weapons of the minions of an
impious slaveholding oligarchy. The daily
expenditures forced upon the government by
this war are of a startling character, and must
constitute a fearful aggregate in the end, if the
rebellion be not speedily put down. To save
this ruinous waste, to stop this shocking effusion
of blood, to make a solid peace possible, nothing
is wanted but the total abolition of slavery. If
this be not done, then there is no hope of re
conciliation or prosperity, and the doom of the
nation is sealed. In the language of President
Lincoln, uttered before his inauguration, "a
house divided against itself cannot stand. It
will become all one thing, or all the other."
Again :—"This is a world of compensations ;
and he who would be no slave must have no
slave. Those who deny freedom to alm, de
serve it not for themselves ; and, under a just
God, cannot long retain it." The President has
it now in his power, as had Pharaoh of old, to
let the oppressed go free, so that the land may
have rest, and the retributive judgments of
Heaven be removed far from it. If he refuses
to improve this sublime opportunity to do the
grandest and most beneficent work of the age,—
whether through weakness or perversity,—
then more than the guilt of Pharaoh will rest
upon his head ; and, instead of preserving the
government he has sworn to defend, he will but
have hastened its downfall by refusing to strike
the only blow necessary for its perpetuity. But
if he will declare freedom for all, wherever the
the flag of the nation advances, the flames of
civil war will be speedily extinguished, the
smiles of an approving Heaven secured, and
his memory will be crowned with lasting honor.
