THE UNION-THE CONSTITUTION-AND
THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW.
HARRISBURG, PA
Tuesday Afternoon, April 22, 1862.
THE PRESIDENT AND GEN. CAMERON.
When General Cameron, at the instance of
the creature, Pierce Butler, was arrested and
a suit instituted against him for damages, At
torney General William M. Meredith, expressed
the unofficial opinion that Congress would be
compelled to pass a special law on the subject,
legalizing the arrests out of which the suit of
Butler sprang, or every member of the cabi
net would be subjected to the same annoy
ance, as the malice or vindictiveness of traitors
might suggest. Nor would the 'embarrassment
stop here. The President, himself, at the ex
piration of his term of office, could in like
manner be subjected to the same humiliating
embarrassment, until every executive officer
of the government would become the victim of
any miscreant or traitor who felt aggrieved
because he had been held responsible for his
acts. This opinion of Mr. Meredith seems to
have also been entertained by the President, if
we may infer the fact from the message he sent
to Congress yesterday, assuming the responsi
bility of the arrests made by General Cameron
while he was at the head of the War Depart
ment. We can still further infer that the
terms of the message amount to a suggestion
that Congress should pass a law exonerating
and exempting Cabinet officers from prosecution
and fine while in the discharge of such official
duties.
The opinion of Attorney General Meredith
and the action of the President following in
such close connection, constitute one of those
coincidences in jurisprudence and legislation,
which only goes to prove that there is a correct
principle to govern all things, and that however
traitors may resort to subterfuge to carry out
their designs, there are both sagacity and
statemanship in our midst to frustrate the
deepest laid plots. No abler or more profound
lawyer does not exist in the Union, than the
Attorney General of Pennsylvania, William M.
Meredith. Pennsylvania is proud of his services
and his abilities iu this great hour of her devo
tion to the Union.
TEE TAX BILL
The delay which has marked the progress of
the tax bill, can perhaps be satisfactorily ex
plained by members of Congress, but we doubt
if the explanation will assist our credit at
home, or add materially to our reputation
abroad. In a financial view, this delay will
not compare favorably with the promptness
with which we received and have expended the
enormous loans of the last four months. The
appropriation of hundreds of millions seemed
to be the work of magic. All that appeared ne
cessary was to propose, and the usual formali
ties of legislation were dispensed with, in order
to hurry bills appropriating these millions
through Congress, to receive the approval of
the Executive, which was also as speedily given
as the bills were passed. It was claimed as an
evidence of power thus to appropriate money.
The world was asked to receive it as the testi,
mon' , of a free people in favor of a free people.
We are willing that this fact of prompt appro
priation of money should be thus regarded, but
at the same time we have a right to insist that
still stronger evidence is necessary to prove to
the world that we are able and willing to sup
port the government. In one shape, such
evidence is already before the world. The de
votion of the masses has been manifested in
the manner with which they have rushed to
arms. Men are willing to sacrifice their lives,
but we have yet to see that general willingness
to sacrifice fortunes which was pledged during
the Revolution, and which must be repeated
in this struggle, before we can fully hope to
succeed. And it appears from the delay of
Congress to pass the tax bill, that some doubt
prevails in that body on this subject, a doubt
as disgraceful to the country as any that has
ever been entertained for a noble object or a
patriotic cause.
The latest advices from Washington are to
the effect, that the tax bill will be postponed,
with the bankrupt bill, until the second session
of the present Congress. If this is true, we
very much deplore the fact, because it only
postpones what must eventually be met and
provided for, without gaining anything by the
delay, but an accumulation of interest itself
enormous and burdensome.' We trust, how
ever, that there is no truth in these rumors.
We trust, also, that Congress will speedily pass
the tax bill, if only to prove to the world our
ability and our willingness to defray every dol
lar of the expense growing out of the slave
holders' rebellion.
IN Rrispolts to the nonsense published this
mernin gby our coteruporary on the corner of the
alley, in the shape of one of the usual commu
nications peculiar to that sheet, a respectable
white woman requests us to ask one of the proprie
tor of the Patriot bow he reconciles the stuff in the
said communication with the objection to em
ploying a white domestic in his own family.
There is considerable difference between the
practice and the preaching of some people. We
pause for a reply ?

cent. premium, and is very semen at that rate.
THE POLITICAL AND PROPERTY
rarza
Postmaster General Montgomery Blair, wrote
a letter to the committee of arrangements of
the meeting held in the Cooper Institute, New
York, March 6, 1862, which is even now at
tracting great attention, and which has been
commented upon very largely as both a philo
sophical and political discussion of the vexed
question now antagonizing and diving the
country. He has placed the question in a new
light, and given to the forms and claims of sla
very an original position before the country. The
property class, the men who breed, barter and
work slaves, never did, nor do not now, ask
any other rights for slavery than the right
which it gives them over the bodies and actions
of their chattle. With these unrestricted, they
do not trouble themselves with other interests,
nor do they demand that the interests they
possess in slavery should be recognized as
potential in political parties or legislative as
sembles. If the property class in the south
had been left to their free choice, the country
would not now be convulsed with rebellion.
But this class was controlled by men who were
popular with the masses, and who succeeded in
imbuing the mobs of the south with the idea
that the abolition of slavery was designed for
the purpose of equalizing the white and black
races. This was the preaching of the political
class in the south which now heads the rebel
lion, and it is this class that Postmaster Gen
eral Blair holds responsible for the war.
Acting in concert, and composed of men of
great ability, whose ambition was constantly
stimulated, and who were ever aspiring for
power and distinction, the political class of the
south saw In the election of Abraham Lincoln
the destruction of their dearest hopes. Jeff.
Davis was convinced that no man south of
Mason and Dixon's line would ever again be
nominated for the Presidency by any party.
The great free states w -old not perMit slavery
to be made an issue, because the sentiment of
the people clearly indicated its gradual dis
franchisement, and hence its introduction into
political contests would be restricted. On this
fact, the political classes in the south rebelled.
When they:saw power passing from their hands,
they aroused the masses to a war of races,
while the property classes were forded into ;he
contest, at first reluctantly, but now desperate
ly, because whatever may be the result, oue
conclusion is certain, that the doom of slavery
is fixed and prescribed.
The doctrine of disunion should not be recognized.
On this point Mr. Blair declares that the object
of the south is half realized if the north insists
that the states in rebellion are severed from the
Union. The rebels glory to fight on such an
issue, and therefore they should be deprived of
its influence in their favor. The states which
they have overrun with their mobs, should be
recognized as still belonging to the Union, and
wherever it becomes possible, the loyal people
thereof should be guaranteed and endowed
with the protection and privileges of the Con
stitution. Such a policy at once strengthens
the confidence of the people in the government,
while it exposes the real designs of the rebels,
by forcing them to fight on the issues they
themselves have created. It forces them alone
to assume the responsibility of the law they
have violated, and deprives them of the force
of carrying with them entire states on the plea
that they are out of the Union because declared
so by irregular and incompetent bodies.
- We are pleased to notice the favorable recep
tion of the letter of Mr. Blair by the rural press
of the free states ; because it is by this channel,
after all the boasting of metropolitan journal
ism, that the hearts and understanding of the
people are reached and controlled. This letter,
complete, will be found on our first page this
afternoon.
EAIANCIPATION IN THE DISTRICT OF
COLUMBIA
The act of elancipation, which secures the
freedom of the American capital ceases any
longer to be a matter of wonder or surprise
among the people, and has passed to the records
of the nation, with the calm dignity becoming
its practical importance. We were assured
before this act became a law, that its passage
would be signalized by blood, and that the
moment it went into operation, then indeed
the American capital would be menaced and in
danger. It was claimed as a violation of the
laws existing when the territory sought to be
made free was added to the general govern
ment; and as those laws were al ways recog
nized as in force over the said territory, and
were never repeated, this act of emancipation
was literally an interference with state rights,
and a virtual violation of state sovereignty.
Nevertheless the act of emancipation was
passed. Before its passage it was ably discuss
ed, by the most learned men in the land, rep
resenting the opinions and the feelings of all
the loyal states. It was discussed first as a
matter of justice to the dignity and the repu
tation of the country. Discussed as a question
affecting our reputation as a free people, and
whether we could claim before the world the
title of free men, while the proud capital of the
nation was peopled with slaves. It was dis
cussed next as a matter of policy, whether the
freedom of the capital would not hereafter en
hance its safety; and it was discussed as a mat
ter of economy whether the obliteration of the
institution of slavery by a system of compensa
tion would not be the cheapest mode in the
end of avoiding rebellion and its enormous
expenses. In the face of this calm and delib
erate discussion, with the stern fact that the
law is now in practical operation, it is yet as
sumed by the dough-faces at the north and
pseudo loyalists in Washington city, that eman •
cipation is impractical and the terms of this
law unjust. We always anticipated these
objections from these men, simply because
their social and political existence is invested
in the institution of slavery. Those who refuse
to recognize the justice of the law are those
who deem slavery a divine right; while those
who consider emancipation as impracticable,
are the men in the north and the south who
have wielded the franchises of slavery for their
own political advancement, and consequently
personal aggrandizement.
The great feature of this act is not so much
that a few hundred slaves are to be liberated
as it is that the principle of slavery has been
IpmnonWant° luitp 4lettgrapt), etneotocip afternoon, apritl 22, 1862
practically repudiated by Congress. By this act
of emancipation we declare that slavery is local,
that ft cannot nor dare not travel hereafter be
yond its present limits, and that its end is fixed
and its existence prescribed. The American
people, or those who refused to recognize slave
ry, never asked for more than this decision.
They never demanded that slavery should be
suddenly abolished. What they have sought
has been accomplished in this act, and hence
they are satisfied. They are satisfied that
slavery, instead of being agitated hereafter to
be extended, will be agitated Only to become
extinct. This was the feeling with which
slavery was regarded by the founders of the
government. It was not regarded as an insti
tution to be extended and enfranchised, until
it attracted the attention of Democratic politi
cians, to whom all the responsibilities and re
bellion that have sprung from slavery are di
rectly traceable.
We are justified in regarding the act of eman
cipation, as it relates to slavery in Washington
city, as the most wise and practical step ever
taken on the subject of slavery. We must
recognize it in this spirit, and regard those
who oppose it as in reality worse than those
who support rebellion. The mere support of
rebellion in an hour of passionate rashness, is
insignificant when compared to that spirit which
claims loyalty and yet opposes the calm and
deliberate acts of the legislative and executive
branches of the government.
SENATOR WADE, of Ohio, one of the brave old
defenders of liberty when the Senate Chamber
of the United States was controlled by slava
drivers, declared yesterday that there was not a
loyal Breckenridge man in the south and very
few in the north. He uttered a truth in those
words which no doubt sounded strangely in the
Senate Chamber, when it is remembered that
two years since John C. Breckenridge, with
Davis, Toombs, Wigfall and others now in re
bellion, were then , concocting the schemes to
plunder and destroy the government. He ut
tered a truth which the actions of the Breckar
ridge leaders in the north verify every day.—
We need go no further than this city, or if ne
cessary, at the limit, no further than this state,
to prove that very few of the men who led the
contest in the last Presidential election, as the
advocates and upholders of Breckenridge, are
now the sincere supporters of the war to sup
press the rebellion.. They do not desire dis
union. They do not approve of the effort to
destroy the government, but at the same time
they condemn the Administration because it
has took up arms to suppress rebellion, and are
ready at any moment to aid the rebellion if they
can be assured that it will only result in forcing
Abrah m Lincoln to abdicate. Theleaders of the
northern Breckenridge Democracy, kept the se
crets of those who were preparing to rebel in the
event of the election of Abraham Lincoln, be
cause they were assured that this rebellion
had no other object. With this understanding
we have no doubt that the prominent men
among these leaders in this state, had pledged
their influence and aid to the rebellion. But the
slave drivers attempted too much for the
dough-faces, and hence their failure to assist
in the rebellion. They now content them
selves in aiding the rebellion only so far as
they can embarrass the federal government, by
such acts, for instance, as the prosecution of
of Gen. Cameron by Pierce Butler.
—The sympathy of the Breckenridge leaders
for the slaveholders rebellion is confined, how
uver, alone to that class. It is noticeable in
such of those who control the columns of cer
tain newspapers, or who are recognized and
claim the leadership of factions in certain lo
calities Among the masses who were duped
into voting for Breckenridge, this sympathy is
repudiated. The people are for the Union,
while such old political hacks as these leaders
are for a party ; a party which has given birth
to the distension out of which has sprung the
rebellion
Ton "SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCX" dodge is be
ginning to attract the attention and the ex
posure of the public and as the imposition Is un
veiled, we can see a part of the game by which
the New York press and the press of other
commerial emporiums have so long managed
to delude their patrons. The incidents of the
rebellion have been prolific themes for "special
correspondents," and thousands of "incidents,"
that never occurred, are daily spread before
the public in the shape of letters dated in
every possible locality, and printed with every
imaginable reliance on their power to deceive
the public, and bring nickel to the coffers of the
aforesaid enterprising publishers. The compe
tition in this sort of trash and the success
which one or two other of the journals achieve
by such deception, occasionally excites envy
and jealousy, when the result is an exposure
of the business by those lees expert in its
frauds. More than four-fifths of the " special
correspondence" which appears in the metro
politan press, is written in the garrets and
corners of the offices where the papers publish
ing such trash are printed. The stuff which
is circulated by the New York press partakes o
this quality of falsehood and deception. It is
the stalest of Bennet's tricks thus to give eclat
to the Herald, while those who imitate the im
position, and use the journals they control
thus to prey upon the feelings, fears and hopes
of the people in times like these, so full of
serious apprehension, danger and death, are
little better than those who are the authors of
the rebellion.

The schoonerßophia,which ran the Charleston
blockade, has arrived at Liverpool with nine
hundred bales of cotton, &c.

GREAT Itirretri.—The steamer °nett° was
built at Liverpool nominally as a war vessel for
the Italian Government. She left on She 22nd
of March in ballast for Palermo, with a crew
of fifty men. The belief is that she will go to
Bermunda, where her armament has preceded
her. She is built to carry suns of the heaviest
calibre. She measures seven hundred and fifty
tons, and is reported as very fast. There are
various contradictary conclusions.
The Sumter was at Gibralter, and the Tus •

In Parliament Mr. Disraeli made a character
istic party attack on GLadstone's financial pol

The question of brigandage and the removal
of the ex-Bing of Naples from Rome were de

that accounts of brigradages were exaggerated
and that no additional force was necessary.
The Italian government persisted in pointing
out that the preseuce of Francis the 2d at
Rome was a source of disorders, and it was also
believed that Napoleon shares this conviction,
and perceives the necessity of providing against
its continuance, but the difficulties cannot all
