.lailp Ceitgrao. HARRISBURG, PA. Saturday Afternoon, April 5, 1862. STAND BY THE OLD REPUBLICAN' PARTY. We made an allusion on Thursday to our party. Since then, we priceive that other Republican journals in states are directing atten tion to the same subject. Thus, the Springfield (Ill.) Journal declares that at the late Presiden tial election Republican principles carried the Republican party into power. We agree en tirely with the Journal, because the good, and true and pure men of the country rallied be. 'teeth the Republican banner, and planted it tri umphantly over the capitol of the Union. De mocracy, all covered with pro-slavery filth, black with treason and rotten with corruption, was hurled from power jut in time to save the government from overthrow, the country from ruin, and republican liberty from extinction.— The soul of Republicanism is, Fannon. Its mission is to save free government from over th row, preserve our broad domain from division, give larger liberty to mankind, and by crushing molt and supporting atone, to show the world how sublime a thing a free nation can become. The Republican.-party is young, pure, and faith ful to the Constitution, the government and all the great iutereats of the country and human ity. The salvation of America depends upon Republican success. If God, in His providence, ever traced one line more clearly than another, it is that which declares that America shall be come a land of freedom. God has written this, and he who looks into the hearts of the people and gives attention to paising events can read it plainly. The Democratic party is not to be trusted. A party based upon slavery, and that bows at every shrine of wrong and evil that vott I may follow fawning, should be shunned by every man who values human liberty. The Democratic party of to-day is without one hon orable principle or ennobting idea. Its loyalty to the government is a question in which doubt largely overbalances hope, while of its devotion to slavery and other evils, and of its opposition to reforms calculated to advance, elevate and encohle'tnefiliiht:i„there is AO doubt: at all,. was a grand old party once, when, with Jeffer sonsaitalreed, It stood up for freedom and for right. But it has fallen. It symbolizes a Chris tian, whose soul wad once illuminated by the smile of God, b o at who now, fallen, rejoices in the approVing grin of the Devil. No good can clam out of it. The hope of the nation is in Republican success. When civil war burst upon our land Democracy made office a basis for loyalty, and Republicanism, with its great heart glowing with the fires of patriotism, abandoned its organization and voted for any Democrat who could plainly pronounce the word ~ ..trA i oN.- This was a . patriotic,, but an unwise move on our part. Now we call upon the Republician party to retrieve the error. Or ganize anew.' In every county, town and neigh borhood, organise and - unloose to the breeze that symbol 'of , loyalty, freedom and progress, the Reptiblldan banner. Rally beneath it, and battle as . Of old for everythiog dear to freemen. Republicans be up and doing. Despotion is ever watchful for advantage. Democracy, so recently defeated, stained with treason and rot tenwithixorruption,is notyet dead. It betrays its existence in Washington, where the Democratic members of Congress, under the lead of that semi-traitor Vallandigham, unite in a call'for a National Convention of the party that betrayed our country into the bands of the traitors of the south. Republicans, loyal men, lovers of your country and freedom, awake ! organize, go to work and ensure success. We call upon the Republican press and advocates of the whole countr7 to unfurl the old Republican banner and to stir up our friends to organization and action. We must strengthen the hands of our noble, wise, patriotic, liberty-loving President, and give him the power to carry out his plane for the rescue of our country from the dangers that ear/iron it. Rally, rally, friends of free dom and progress! organize, organize, and see to it that in the election of October the'illepuh limn banner waves over the prostrate foe of freedom, progress, humanity and our country. REBEL PROGRESS-NO MORE USE FOR TYPE. The progress of the rebels toward barbarism is evinced in more ways than one. Not satis fied with enlisting savages in their ranks, and scalping their fallen enemies, they are deter mined to drive every vestige of civilization from their presence. The Marshall (Texan) Republican of a late date, has the following: How would type metal answer, mixed with an equal quantity of lead f Our opinion is that is would answer every urpose. If so, there is any quantity of old rye in New Orleans and elsewhere, and when that is exhausted, let us take the new. It could not be devoted to a better purpose than shooting at the Yankees. Education and a spread of general intelli gence are irduwical to the designs of the Con federate leaders. The intellectual advance. next of the north is 'what first led them to read in the promise of events the certain down fall of the hateful tyranny which they estab limbed during the two last administrations, and they wish to eradicate every vestige of northern institutions. Just at present, too, the south has no need of newspapers. There is no cheer ing news to, communicate, and that which is calculated to depreds had better not 'be circu lated. The conversion of types into bullets, would be an act An.perfict consonance with rebel'aivillotion• *- • ONE YEAR AGO One year ago we were tremblingly hanging on the verge of rebedion, yet still is d ,übt that there were any parties ro desperate as to seriously contemplate the dismemberment of the American Union. The secession of South Carolina and her sister rebel states had in a manner demonstrated the determined purpose of the traitors, and yet the loyal free states were filled by men who persisted in urging that such acts of secession were not the result of any sincere deliberation on the part of the rebels, and that if the government would act discretly and wisely, the states thus in revolt would be brought back to their allegiance, and the authority they had forcibly renounced, would be once more peaceably recognised. And in this spirit the government treated the rebels so far as any demonstation was concerned. Its authority was asserted, but not enforced, be cause the enforcement might aggravate instead of allay rebellion, and thereby a band of brave men were exposed to the fire of a gang of rebels, and the national honor so long pent up in Fotts Moultrie and Sumter, was at last violated by the most dastardly attack that ever was made on any military force in the history of the world. In one year this nation hatraccomplished the most stupendous work of the age. Oar re sources were unknown, and in many instances, where developed, they were 'depreciated, and the superiority of the south extolled by the very men from whom the government and the loyal states had a right to expect other conduct and speeches. One year ago, the then Secre tary of War, .Gen. Simon Cameron, was left in a dilemma such as would have appalled an or dinary man. The other Departments of the government, as it were, stood idle and demanded of the Department over which he presided, the . means and the material with which to restore the nation to peace. The eyes of the nation were directed to the War Department while the head of that Department could ectucely trust a single officer of the regular army then in Washington, from the simple fact that treason first showed Itself with more effrontery in the army and navy than in any other branch of the government. Officers were resigning who had passed their lives in idlenes, drawing the money of the government for their support, while the proud capital of the nation was left defenceless, beseeching succor and protection from the lib erality, and promptness of the War Department. The experience of another year, if it main tain a like character of the year that is past, will place this government in a very strong position before the nations of the world. In one year we recruited, armed and disciplined an army of six hundred thousand men. In one year we counteracted the labors of the ablest and shrewdest villains in the world, as they contemplated the destruction of this govern ment. There never has been anything to equal it in the past, and there never will be anything to compare to it in the future, unless we excel the past in the coming year, by an achieve.. went of intunartal, .-inagialtdde. One condition of affairs is certain.' A.ar We have ccinqUered the rebellion, put an end to its mischievous jealouses, and re-established the federal au thority in all the states and territories of the Union, we will either have the world at our throats er our feet. Our war with traitors is as likely to end in war with foreign nations as it is certain that foreign nations hope for our destruction, and are ready at any time to strike a blow to hurry; on such a conclusion : Let tis 'then look forward to another year with hope and noble resolution to met every other emergency, that may arise as we met re hellion. With mote than a half a million of well-trained, hardy and intelligent 'fighting men in the field ; with a navy that is daily growing: in force and effectiveness, the wait thing that can possibly happen for our jealous neighbors over the waters, will be the termi nation of this rebellion. Let those who doubt this, wait a year, and then - expose our sophis tries if the assertion proves false. . A Decamp Nissans.—The fire-eating seceders believed, without doubt, that the general gov ernment wag powerless to put down the rebel lion. Through Floyd, Cobb, Thompson and Toney,, they had done all they could to make it impotent, and they fancied they had suc ceeded. It was under this mistake that the confederates undettook more than theyhad power to aclileve--the federal government was powerless. Had Mr. Lincoln been lees resolute than he was, their chances would have been better. Had their revolutionary plot succeeded in the as-assination of Mr. Linooln on his way to the capital, and the seizure of the treasury end 4 rohives of the government, their cherished enterprise would have been half achieved on the 4th of March, 1861. If those in the North who had pledged , their aid, had been as able as they were willing to redeem those pledges, the rebellion might have attained at least a temporary triumph. How they regarded the ability of the federal government, ratty be seen in the following pas sage from the Charleston Mercury, a little more than a year ago: "The coercive power of the federal govern ment, so long vaunted as, adequate to suppress the secession of a State, is rapidly proving it self to be—what it has icing been supposed and said to be—a wretched humbug—a scarecrow—a dirty bundle of red rags and odd clothes!' Tam Datswamm Cowry ADVIIRTIBER, in re ferring to the late rejection of Capt. H. Jones Brooke, the indefatigable and incorruptible United States Commissary at this point, uses the following language We are acquainted with some of the "pecu liar circumstances" of the case which , we with hold for the present in deference to the wishes bf those interested, and in conclusion have but to say, that a state of corruption unparalleled must exist, when such a man is liable to prose eneon for firmly standing between the govern- ment and the vile robbers and scoundrels who would plunder it. We trust that the Advertiser will not with hold those "peculiar circumstances" entirely rpm the public. Captain Brooke has been oonfirmed, and therefore the country has a right to know by what system of Vag he was at Bret !mailed and' rejected: "Let jOice be d9aft, though the liwen'is do. fell." Pennsylvania Legislature. REPORTED EXPRESSLY FOR THE rusoßepa HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. FRIDAY, April 4, 1882 EVENING SESSION. The House re-assembled at 74 o'clock, 1". a. On motion of Mr. ARMSTRONG, the appor tlonment bill was made the special order for next Wednesday morning, immediately after the reading of the journal. An act to extend the charter of the Columbia Bank. was Passed finally. A further supplement to an act concerning the New York and Middle Clearfted railroad and coal company, was Agreed to on second reading. The House refused to go to third reading. Other bills of less importance were acted upon. Adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. SATURDAY,- April 6, 1862. MORNING SESSION. The SPEAKER called the Ildige to order at 10 o'clock A. M. .` The Clerk proceeded to read the journal of yesterday, when, on motion of Mr. CowaN, the further reading of the same was dispensed with. Several private bills were taken up and passed, when the House resumed the consideration of the bills remaining on the pubic calendar. A further supplement to the act incorporating the North Pennsylvania railroad company was agreed to, on second reading, but left over for third reading. Mr. HOMO'S, (Washington,) (on leave given,) offered the following resolution: Resolved, That the Auditor General be re quested to inform the House what amount of taxes were paid by the Pennsylvania railroad company the fiscal year preceding the let of Jannar,y, 1861, on its capital stock, bonds, divi dends or property. The resolution was read a second time, and agreed to. Adjourned. BANK Bar..—After a lengthy and tedious dis cussion yesterday in the House of Represen tatives, that body produced the following bill. We presume however that it will hardly pass the Senate in its present shape. From a care ful examination it will be observed that the ban ks are compelled to redeem their currency in United States Treasury notes when demand ed. This will be a virtual resumption of specie payments, as those notes are now rating at par and we expect to see them shortly above par. The banks having aided the government dur ing We present crisis to their utmost they certainy expected a more liberal bill from their .
