THE EMPIRE, THE BUCK-EYE AND THE
KEYSTONE STATE.
While we adore the name and the reputation
of the old Keystone State, and are jealously
proud of all that is done in her name, we are
not unmindful of the exertions of our sister
commonwealths, in responding with armed
men to aid the National Administration in
maintaining its authority. The three great
commonwealths of the Union, the Empire, the
Buckeye and the Keystone State, have each offi
cially reported the number of troops they have
in the field, which we thus transcribe, adding
to each state its population, according to the
last census:
Soldiers. Population.
.89,064 3,880,730
New York,
Ohio, 77,844 2,339,599
Pennsylvania, 109,615 2,906,370
These figures are from official sources. The
number of troops as stated in the messages
of the Governors of each of the states respec
tively, and the population from the last report
of the census bureau. Thus, it will be seen,
that Pennsylvania, with a million population
less than New York, has furnished twenty thou
sand , more troops, and with a little over half a
million more population than Ohio, has fur
nished an excess of thirty-one thousand seven hun
dred and seventyone more men then that state.
New York deserves credit for what she has
done, when we consider how prone the people
of the Empire State are to boast and exaggerate.
Ohio has done nobly, and can doubtless
do better If a call is made and an opportunity
offered. But Pennsylvania has not only. ex
ceeded both of these two states in numbers and
comparison, but she has exceeded herself in
loyalty and devotion to the Union. With
a commendable lack of display peculiar to our
people, these troops were recruited, organized
and in the field, while the requisitions on other
states were scarcely half made up or organized.
We content ourselves with presenting these
figures. They need no farther comment from
the TELEGRAPH, to prove to the people of Penn
sylvania, that they have nobly done their duty
to the country.
SOUTHERN ARG UMI'NT.
We commend the following extract of a
letter from one of the bitterest of the women
rebels in the country, as containing arguments
which it would be well for tht peace men and
anti-eMancipationists to devour and digest.
We are constantly told in the north, by a class
of men who conceal their treason beneath the
thin veil of conservatism, that slavery has
nothing to do with the rebellion, and that
while the federal government is struggling to
defeat the rebels, it would be recreant to the
Constitution and laws of the land, if it in any
manner interfered with the institution of sla
very. While such arguments are being ad
vanced to embarrass the federal authorities, the
southern people are making slavery not only
the cause of rebellion, but the source of all the
strength of treason. It supplies the ignorant
population of the south with anamosity against
the national government and the people of the
free states, while the slaves themselves contri
bute to the support of those in arms battling
that the institution of slavery may assume an
august control in the legislative and executive
departments of this government.
The paragraph alluded to is in the following
terse and emphatic language :
" We think we have this advantage of the
North : while all our men are taken for the war, the
blacks are left at home to carry on the agricultural
pursuits, and raise all that we at home and our men
in the army need to live. I do not see but we
raise as much with our men away, as we did
with them at home, and our women are so fired
with patriotism that some of us go right into the
field and take the management of the slaves.
We are thus able to spare all the men able to
bear arms. There is but one young man left
in our town, all the rest are in the army, and
he will be there soon. The old men are formed
into minute men and home guards, and will go
if necessary. The northerners have no one to
support them when they are away. They must
stay at home and take care of their famifies, or
they will starve. Though our white popula
tion is much smaller than yours, yet with the
blacks to work for us, we can keep as many
men in the war as you can."
Tau Lancaster , Evening Express denies in a
semi authoritative tone, the report that Ex-
President Buchanan is engaged in writing a
book.. We are glad to hear that this genera
tion is to be spared this last infliction, as there
are sufficient of the falsehoods and treachery of
James Buchanan already in print.
HOW WE MISTAKE EACH OTHER
No one will pretend to deny, who pays the
least attention to the publications of a certain
portion of the northern press as well as to the
utterances of a certain class of northern pciople,
that a great lack of understanding continues to
be operating against the epeedy settlement of
the domestic difficulties of the country, so es
sential to its present peace and future prosperity.
There is a party in the loyal states organized
and intent on a settled purpose of rendering the
struggle for the vindication of the authority of
the land, a disgraceful failure. This purpose is
fired by a desperate political prejudice ; and as
long as there . is a hope of giving secret - aid and
comfort to the enemy, these men will seem- to
be loyal, but as soon as they find that they can
no longer render clandestine service to the re
bel cause, they will seek the rendezvous of the
south, throw off the mask and like Breckin
ridge take up arms in the rebel army. In one
sense, such open hostility is more manly than
the sneaking emuity which is now so prevalent
in the north, and it is on these facts, that the
loyal men of the loyal states mistake each'oth
er's duty, and cultivate differences which are
encouraged by these same secret foes of the
government, until many honest men frequently
mistake their own opinions -and prejudices as
of far more importance than the perpetuity and
safety of the American Union. Let us, there
fore, cease in thus mistaking each other, and
boldly recognize the mistake of the rebels in
their attempt to destroy the American Union.
Let the people unite and resolve that all other
interests and institutions sink into insignificance
when compared to the interest of the Union
and institutions of freedom. In this manner
only can we become entirely united. If we
encourage other notions, and go out of our
way in search of constructions of the Constitu
tion and expositions of the law to guard us
against the danger of treating rebels and trai
tors illegally, we will constantly be mistaking
ourselves and as frequently assist the rebels in
the achievement of their purposes.
Itwould be blind folly to expect that - this
struggle can be carried on without damaging
the institution of slavery. Those whe urge
such a notion, are the very then who asserted
that the federal authority could not coerce a
state into obedience to the federal law. There
fore let us not mistake each other on this
score, but make our estimates of tacos who
thus insist on an impossibility as open as our
contests, and regard any ouch men thus
claiming results for the struggle as 'an enemy
of the Union, and .a foe to free institutions .
There must be no differences among the people
of the loyal states as to the manner and the
means necessary to restore peace to the
If it becomes necessary to exterminate the race
of rebel slaveholders to cement the states in
an eternal Union, we would regard the sacrifice
as insignificantly small when compared to the
stupendous end to be gained ; therefore, let us
not mistake each other on this subject. And
if to that sacrifice should be added the horde
of dough Aces and secret traitors in the free
states, we should moot assuredly pray for the
accomplishment of the work`as more necessary
than the other to the peace of the, country,
because the northern traitor adds duplicity to
his treason, and a meanness to his cowardice,
which is ready for any revenge to satisfy his
old political associates. On this point, 'so es
sentially important, we , should not mistake each
other!
JOHN CESSNA
The Bedford Inquirer thus disposes of the pre
tensions of John Cessna, who is contesting the
seat of George W. Householder, the Representa
tive from the Bedford district in the Legislature.
Cessna contests the seat of Mr. Householder we
hear, on constitutional grounds—that Bedford,
according to the Constitution, has the right to
a member by herself. If this be so, why did
Mr. Cessna submit hie claims to the people of
Bedford and Somerset comities! For seven
years Bedford was attached to Cambria county,
that apportionment bill being passed by a Dem
ocratic Legislature, and . Democrats getting the ,
benefit. The opposition. submitted gracefully.
For some four or five years, Somerset has been
attached to Bedford, and 'all defeated candi
dates have submitted. But, it - appears. that.
Mr. Cessna is so very ambitious and - anxious
for the office, that he must contest Mr. House
holder's right to his seat ! Mr. Houieholder
was, we believe, fairly and constitutionally
elected, and the Legislature will hardly strilify
itself by giving Mr. Cessna a seat to which he
is not entitled.
Many BeKsblicans, of Bedford county, be
lieving that the election of a good Union Dem
ocrat at this time, would be of more advantage
to the country than the election of a 'Republi
can, voted for Mr. Cessna, but they do not ap
prove his course now, and regret the votes they
have given him.
McOLELLAY AND HALLECE.
Gen. McClellan does well to keep his coun
sels to himself. A fearful responsibility rests
upon him. The people are at once patient and
trustful. They will stand by him against the
clamors of Precipitationists and the intermed
dling of "Congressional Committees." They only
ask that he shall fully form and mature his
plans, complete his preparations and strike at
the earliest pracficabk.mement. They only ask
that he shall remember that we have some six
hundred thousand men in the field, and that
substantial victories are not unreasonably ex
pected. May the confidence reposed in our
young Chieftain prove to have been well
founded.
Gen. HaHeck is described as being a pattern
of official bluntness. Perfectly accessible, he
has nevertheless an eflectual way of ridding
himee)f of bores; Before the visitor has had
time to make either his name or.business
known, he salutes him with :—" Have you
any business with me, Bir r finds out what he
wants ; nips his long speeches in the, bud ;
gives him a prompt reply ; —and. bows him
out. Once ins while a man comes out of the
audience chamber with a suspicion that he has
been snubbed ; but the great majority admire
his directness.

WHEN THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT, to satisfy
the cupidity of the commercial classes of Eng
land, waged a war with China, to compel the
Chinese to eat opium, nothing was heard on
the subject of inhumanity. English statesmen
and minister's of state were silent on that topic,
as thousands of imbecile men and women were
slaughtered in the name of commerce and-civil
ization. When the Beapoys of India sought
to throw oil the . British rule, and escape the
taxation which the British governmen is so
prompt to impose on its colonies, the armies of
England were marched into India, the revolt
ing Seapoys slaughtered, by being tied to the
mouths of cauncin, while the servants of the
nobility of India were corrupted by the I , :aders
of the English army, and rewards paid mull
cases of servile insurrection and assassination.
This was . 811 right, while it brought gold into
English coffers, promulgated the power of the
English aristocracy, and established the pres
tige of the English armies. But when a band
of miserable political gamestersand traitors con
spire for the usurpation of the authority of this
government, when social order is sought to be
destroyed among the American states, and in
its stead force anarchy, rapine and murder to
prevail, the English governinent become sud
denly converted to the principle of man's abil
ity to rule, by seeking to make the bloody de
signs of a rebellion the most patriotic efforts of
men striving by revolution to emancipate
themselves from tyrany. Any proposition to
vindicate our laws is'an act againat civilization
and progress while the offer to make the
slaves of the south the corrective of the
slave holder's rebellion, is characterized as in
human and revolting by those who cut throats
in China to find free trade for opium—or who
molated thoulads in India that revenues
could flow into British treasuries.
W hatever.may be the influence which Great
Britain may have on the balance of mankind,
thaenation wields none over the preferences,
opinions or destinies of the people of these
United States. That her statesmen are endeav
oring to do so, is self-evident, but the instincts
of the American people and their utter aver
'don for all that is British, annul this attempted
enterference, and will culminate some day in
the reparation due to our insulted honor and
humiliated dignity. The hand that now seeks
to embarras a free people struggling for their
freedom, will come day be called to account not
only to this people, - but to millions of the world
whom it has 'assisted in oppressing and de
grading. England is using her opportunities
with alacrity to injure this government. Her
statesmen are busy in prejudicing our cause
throughout Europe— her ministers leave no
pretext unused to create a prejudice against
the American Union in England, and thus,
almost from the Throne and the power behind
it, down to the lying cockney correspOudent of
the London Tunes, the effort is unanimous to
destroy, if possible, the free institutions of
America.
—This is Christian England ! These are the
pioneers of constitutional liberty !
PNEI Of ova COTEMPORARICIE seems to be im
pressed with the strangeness cf the necessity of
disCriminating between Democrats with the title
of Union Democrats and other Democrats. We
confess that there is something strangely hu
miliating in the discrimination, but who will
dare to doubt its truth and justice. That the
mass of the Democracy are as faithfully de
voted to the Union as any other class of, men
in the loitil stitei,. We have alias maintained,
while, we have asserted as ,persistently and
proved as clearly, that there are other Demo
crats in the loyal states who are as madly de
termined to destroy the Union of, the American
states, as are the rebels themselves. If our
cotemporary reviews these titles , from this
stand point, they will be divested of their
strangeness, and assume the light of justice
in which they have ever been presented
through the columns of the TNIXGRAIII'
Trial of the North Missouri Bridge
correspondent of the Chicago nibune,(Rep.)
writing from Palmyra, Mo., Dec. 30th, says:
The military court for the trial of the bridge
burners, convened to-day. It holds secret ses
sions, admitting only one prisoner and the wit
ness in his case. The number of prisoners
charged with the crime of bridge burning is
thirty. They were all brought out in front of
•the court house for identification, and again
returned to the jail, from which they will pass
out singly for trial, and if found guilty will be
shot, so soon as the finding of the court is ap
proved at head-querters. No attorneys are en
gaged on either aide, to mystify the case, but
the facts will be carefully elicited.
Most of the prisoners are farmers, as we
learned from a personal visit to them to-day.
Many of them are reputed wealthy, several
claiming to be Price's men,
though all deny
the charges against them. All are dressed in
their every-day suits, twenty-six wearing the
butternut colored jeans of the country, one
blub jean, two hard times, and one, a sort, of
dandy, has on a light stuff..
From conversation with the prisoners we
learned, first there were no bridges to burn.
Second, that they did not burn them,
but that
it was done by the other men. Third, that if
they did burn them it was by order of Gen.
Price, their superior officer and country's , sa
viour, and as a military necessity; all of which
they purpose to make apparent if they are al
lowed a fair trial. Fourth, that they are pris
oners of war, and if they are shot it will at
once raise the black flags, and their blood will
rise up as the blood of martyrs, and drive out
the whole black republican race of Yankee nut
meg pedlers. They are positive that Halleck
does not order them shot, and will treat them
as prisoners of war, to be fairly and honestly
exchanged.
Four of the prisoners are boys, one of them
not over sixteen, while the others range from
twenty•five to fifty-seven.
ANNIXT OF AN EDITOR AT Nsw 0/MUNN.—
Information has been received atFortress Mon
roe, from New Orleans, that Mr. James F. Otis,
one of the editors of the New Orleans Picayune,
had been placed under arrest for uttering sedi
tious language. Mr. Otis is a native of New
huryport, Mass., and was connected with the
press of Philadelphia many years before going
South. The Picayune, it will be remembered,
resisted the secession hares,' even after the se
cession ordinance had been . passed, and only
gave in its adhesion when it could no Ipnger
successfully resist the pressure of external cir-
CIIMASIICAS. The arrest of Mr. Otis now would
see* to show that there is a little of the old
leaven still left in the establislunent.

The Gazette says from the editor of the late
Sandy Valley Advocate, now one of the proprie
tors of the Louisville Democrat, who arrived here
.from Sandy Valley yesterday, we learn that the
second rebel invasion of eastern Kentucky has
ended in disgraceful rout. •
On Monday last Odious). Garfield's forces,
including the 42nd Ohio, 10th Kentucky and
1800 cavalry, had proceeded up the Big San
dy to Painsville, within seven. smiles of the
rebel camp, when they were met by a flag
of truce, bearing a message from Humphrey
Marshall, asking if matters could not be
arranged without a fight. Colonel Garfield
immediately replied that he could oiler no
arrangement except either to fight or sur
render unconditionally. Marshall then ad
dressed his:men, informing them they bad no
alternative excepting surrender or disband, and
.giving them the choice, they decided to dis
band. They immediately collected and set fire
to ali their wagons, tents, camp equipage, sup--
plies, etc., and then each man was permitted
to take care of himself, and the whole force
scattered in confusion.
An attempt was made to save everything ex
cepting their cannon which were hauled off.
Col. Garfield despatched his cavalry in pur
suit. They expect to capture the guns and
perhaps pick up many of the flying rebels.
The rebels in North Eastern Kentucky, horn
the high estimate in which Humphrey Mar
shall's military abilities were held, tied strong
hopes of success under his leadership. A suffi
dent federal force will be left in: that region to
secure its future peace and safety.
