March 20,1862. THE CITY ELECTION. The approaching city election has thus far crested no other feeling than that of a general desire to elect the very beet men in all the wards, and thus far secure for the city govern ment in all its derartments, the most efficient service and largest economy. We are pleased to notice this fact, more particularly at this time, whtn in local elections snoh as the one approaching, there should be none of those di visionsof parties which seem essential in other elections involving the issue of prindpleswhich neither party are willing to trust to the legisla tion or executive enforcement of the other. One of the most important officers to be elected to morrow, is that of City Treasurer. It is there fore necessary that none but the most reliable and deserving should be allowed to assume its responsibilities and take charge of its trusts. The Republican and Union conferees have nominated Gomm Tarrmasomt, from the First Ward, for, this position, and initresent ing him to the support of the people, we have the advantage of being able to urge in his be half the essential qualifications of cf7mpetency and honesty. Added to these, Mr. Trollinger Is known to nine-tenths of the tax-payers of the city sea sober and industrious working man ; as one who has contributed largely to the suc cess of every meohaolcal enterprise, and as one who e at this time, is peculiarly deserving of the support of the people et large. While Mr. I'. himself does not make any particular claim on this account, and while ,he feels equal to the task of combatting with the overwhelming misfortune of fire which so lately prostrated and &Strayed his investments and business prospects, we frankly confess our gratification thigt the people of Harrisburg have resolved to show their sympathy for a worthy, man, by aiding him in every honorable manner to re trillite his fortunes while he is serving the pub lic." We trust that this purpose may be sue osseful. We trust that every liberal and enter prfahirMan will sustain Mr. Trollinger, and we are certain that.no coofidence reposed in him will eves be abased, or no trust confided to his onto, ever suffer by his election as City Treasurer. TAN COUNTY SUIT. The appeal of the County Comm Issioners - from 1 the report of the County Auditors, which was to have been tried this morning before His Honor Judge itation, Was postponed for another term on the application of the County Auditors, who des:Jared their inability , to try the cause in the atiiiili*Of John P. Rutherford, who left yester day aftenoon for Washington. The Commis.' slonere, through their counsel, John Adam Mier, opposed the postponement strenuously, buLafterlegal grounds had been given for that purtxise, the court could do nothing less than grant the application of the Auditors. We have heretofore refrainecidrom taking part in the disputes between the parties litigant, and nova, gter a careful examination of all the facts, we candidly believe that the county can gain nothing by,:having these contests fn the courts The coint-house was erected and completed for V :ni and in a more aribstantia 1 manner th A botnimm i er i . ding in the state, and if sand dollai)s more tai was ' .ed fi few thou tif for tifbi purpose, the tax-payers wil ',' ria them fora shilling to paylhat Burnout of their Own pockets.

All of the incurred will eventually come from the ts*isyers, and the sooner, therefore, the mat.; tees in controversy are amicably settled, the better It will be for the tax-payers. We il refer to this subject again. W. W. H.

FAMES IN 2HE REBELLION. When the conspiracy of the slave holders showed its venom, and when the supposed su periority o f the southern rebels was a theme for the discussion and ventilation of the dough faces of the north, the front men of the Repub lican party were tauntingly told that they must fight down the rebellion on their,own responsi bility,aa the Democracy had no oonnection either in creating, or no inclination in crushing, the raid. This is a historical fact. When the country discovered the . appa ll ing a extent of the treason, and when for time the people almost shrank from the contest which. by vilifying Democratic tongues, they had been taught would be unequal and disastrous, the energy of the nation was aroused' by the bold ness of a Republican administration, and at once a force was brought into the field to cope with traitors. When this force was being disciplined —when the raw recruit was asked to yield to the rigor of the camp, and when, during the first enrollment, it was thought that the war would be finished in a few months. the Democratic party, through its leaders, struggled in every manner to embarrass the operations of the army by prejudicing the business and financial classes against extending all aid to the government, until their acts became so audacious as to arouse the indignation of the peeple, and attract to these same leaders the odium of sympathisers with traitors, while the fiery threats of the mob in -more than one instance intimidated those who'could not be convinced, and forced others, who avowed< their sympathy for the rebels, into at least a tacit support of the gov ernment. These historical facts'prove, that the burden and the support of the war mainly rest on the policy adopted by the Republican party, and had that policy been permitted freely 'to demon strate itself in results, the end of the rebellion would have been arrived at four months ago, and the peace of the country been established now as fairly as ever. If the policy of the Re publican party, first enunciated in Congress, on the subject of armed resistance to the rebellion had been adopted by that body—if James Bu chanan, understanding as he did, the extent of the rebellion, and knowing as he did, the in terest of the leaders, had used the power con ferred on Mai by his perogatives of office, the rebellion would have been crushed out before he left the Presidential mansion one year ago. Bat in all these instances, the object of the Democratic party has been to break down the Re publican organization of the country. When South Carolina raised the banner of revolt, and the other states now in rebellion, sternly fol lowed her example, the leaders of the Republi can party saw inthe movement, and announced the fact, that the object was not only the die rupture of the American Union, but that it contemplated the annihilation of civil and re ligious liberty oct r ilda hemisphere On theae two points the Republican party based its oppo sition to the rebellion. They opposed the establishment of nOonfedentcy, with slirverxfox its basis, because such an organization was cal culated to affect every principle or development for social and pOlitical 'prosperity, ' Oa ,the other hand, the Democratic party maintained that the rebels had not only the right of seces sion, but that they Shed the cause for revolt, and that whatever position the- traitors might assume, the right of revolution was sacredly theirs, to be exercised whenever they deemed it essential for their gOod, and that in main tabling such a right, they were worthy the applause of all who valued the inalienable right of self-government.. At the organization, of rebellion, such were the positions'of the Republican itild Democratic parties. When the war had been waged for six months, those pieltions were unchauged, and whenever disaster overtook our armies, [ the sympathy of dough face Democrats showed itself ill open applause of treason, while these same Democratic leaders rejoiced in the hour of our dismay, and exultingly pointed to disas ter as the corroboration of their own predio tiona.... Through all the opposition In the free states— with the clamors of the Secret traitors in Con gress—with a press blindly attached to * the principle that the enslairetneat of one race was the highest end which another could accomplish through the influence of De mooracy-with the prejudices whioh such assumptions would create in the public miod, it became the duty of the Republican masses alone to oombit. And they did combat with until revolution achieved, its , end in the free states, and rebellion in the slave states was so ed as to place it beyond the power of been an ely.

History will prove that.the cenapirairy of the slave holder was seconded by the siirt - patby of Demomtio leaders; and while the first struggled for dominion over soil and souls, the others expected only the reward of office as their loaves and fishes. - Bach has. been and such is the posltiOn of - parties in this contest, Tai vitioar 'which saves life by the strata gem of the leader of an army, is a sublime tribute to the humanity of the age. On this account we most sincerely 4esire that there will be no great encounter such as will send a thrill of horror through the homes of the North, when the bloody details .reach their hearths and their altars. If we, can win the fight by stratagem, the more credit to our skill and perseverance. If we can save the effusion of great quantities of blood, the sooner will 1 the accrimony of the contest be absorbed in future generous business and political competi tions, and the sooner will the memory of the antagonism of the hour die out In the friend= ships a ndcculftdenc* it* hereafter dawn la glory on 'tie land.

Pennontrianto !BMW glelegrapt), itlittrottan Afternoon, Slant) 20, .1862 onaly applaud the stratagem which seeks to avoid the butchery of whole armies of rebels, we must not relent in any rigor calculated to bring the leading traitors and instigators of rebellion to the death penalty. The leaders of this rebellion must not be suffered to survive its suppression. To arrest its fury, means to hang every leader, from the liar, Jeff. Davis, to the thief, John B. Floyd. If these wretches are allowed to escape—if justice in some shape, whether it is as a bullet or a halter, fails to overtake these fiends, and they are allowed to go before the people of other climes, with their falsehoods, in their audacity and their reckless ness, this government will be guilty of a deri liction in its duty to otherzovernmente, which the severebt reprehension would fail to punish. We owe it to the peace of the world—we owe it to the purity'of government and the dignity of mankind, each involving a principle which no nation can disregard with impunity, to bring those who - concocted and those who led, the rebellion, to a death penalty such as will vindicate the law, preserve the peace of the country, and i forever ensure the power of the national authority. When strategy can be made productive of such results, humanity and policy will both applaud its adoption. Tam Wino WAGON= 01 TECO ALLIGRANTIO, patriotic poetical production from the prolific pen of T. Buchanan Reed, was read in the House of Representatives last evening, by tire eminent American tragedian and elocutionist, James E. Murdoch. The House was filled with a brilliant, critical and fashionable audience, whose presence we regarded as at once a tribute to the author and the reader of the Wild Wag oner of the Alleghenies. The, poem Is founded on the incidents and facts which abound in our Revolutionary history,while the scenes selected by the writer in which to lay his plot and bring out his characters, are those which have been made immortal by the struggles and victo ria' of Washington; Wayne, Lafayette and their compeers. They embrace the torture, suffering and wild suspinse of Tilley Forge, with the battle, , . slaughter and defeat at Brandywine. Among and out of these, with the aid of a most prolific and brilliant poetical fancy, Mr. Reed his woven a poem of the highest order, on which he can well rest his fame, already so extensive and so eniriable, but we doubt if the Wild Wagoner of the Alleghenies ever would have been as successful as it is, bad it failed to receive the elocutionary touches of the tongue of Mr. - Murdoch. It is his enuncia , tion which developed its real beauty. It is his rich and mellefiuous voice which brings out the real cadence of its numbers ; while his bright and vivid conception, gives us a rail idea of its characters, from the rough and dar ing Wagoner himself, to the gentle boy and maid whose destinies axe sotefiderly and closely woven into one fate by the imagination of the poet. In the reading of this poem, Mr. Murdoch has been deservedly snmessful. On the, stage he has no superior, either as au actor, scholar and gentleman, and we congratulate him on the new line he has adoptid of appearing before the public, as one in which the characteristics of the man and the scholar can be better 'ex hibited than on: the boards of a thealse.

Capture of Fort Marion, St, Angnsl tine and Jacksonville. The Official Report of Flag Officer Dupont FLAG SHIP WABASH, Of &. Augustine, Fla., March 18,1882. Bl2l:—Haviog on the 4th despatched a di vision of my force to hold Brunswick, consist ing of the Mohican, Pocahontas and Potomeka, under Commander Gordon, I shifted my flag from the first named vessel to the Pawnee, and organised another squadron of light vessels, embracing tlie four regular gunboats—the Ot tawa, Henrea, Pembina and Huron, with the Isaac Smith and Ellen, under Lieutenant-Com manding Stevens, to proceed without delay to the month of the St. Johns river, and cross, if possible, its difficult and shallow bar, shell the forth, if still held, and push on to Jacksonville— indeed, to go as far as Pilatka, eighty miles beyond, to reconnoitre and capture the river steamers. This expedition was to be accompae nied by the armed launches and cutters of the. Wabash, undir Lieutenants Irwin and Barnes, and by a light draft transport with the Seventh New Hampshire regiment! After arranging with Brigadier General Wright our joint occupation of the Florida and Georgia coasts, including the mansion and grounds of Dungennes, on. the Cumberland Island--originally the property of the revolu tionary hero and patriot, General Greene, and still owned by his descendants—and leaving Commander Percival Drayton in charge of the naval force, / rejoined this ship, waiting for me off Fernandina, and proceeded with her to St. Johns, arriving there on the 9th. The gun boats had not been able to cross the bar, but expected to do so the next day—the Ellen only getting in that evening. As at Nas sau, whicn was visited by Lieutenant Com manding Stevens, en his way down, the forts seemed abandoned.. There being no probability that the Huron could enter, I despatched her off St. Augustine, where I followed her, ar riving on the llth. I immediately sent on shore Commander C. R. P. Rodgers, with a flag of truce, having reason to belleve.that if there were ny, people on this coast likely to remain in their houses it would be at St. Augustine. I enclose Commander Rodgers' most interesting report, which, I am sure, the department will read with satisfaction. The American Sag is flying' once more over that old city, raised by the hands of its , own people, who resisted the appeals,• threats and falsehoods of their leaders, though compelled to witness the carrying off of their sons in the ranks of the flying enemy. This gives us pos session of a mond national fort of strength and importance. Since writing the above, I have received by the Isaac Smith, a report from Lieutenant Com manding Stevens, of his operations in the St. John's river, giving details of great interest.— I learn with regret of acts of vandalism on the part of the rebel commanders, if not the people, in setting fire to - vast quantities of lumber, and the saw-mills in that region, owned by 'North ern men, supposed to have Union sympathies. In all this varied and difficult service—hav ing to contend with surf, shores, dangerous bars and inland navigation, in an enemy's country—l think it due to the officers and'men Wader my command to say that they have on all ablialons di-played great spirit and ability, fully coming up to my . requirements and e - *stations.
