THE UNION-THE CONSTITUTION-AND
THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW.
HARRISBURG, PA
Thursday Afternoon, May 1,1862.
7HE ANDERSON BODY GUARD
The operations and services of this gallant
body of men, in the south-west, have heretofore
attracted the attention and the applause of the
country, but the following official recognition
of their worth is the most gratifying evidence
yet had by their friends of their real value to
their country. This testimonial reaches us in
the shape of a postscript to an official report of
Capt. Palmer, of the Anderson Body Guard.
The report is addressed to Adjutant General A.
L. Russell, and we quote the postscript , with
the testimonial annexed. The report is dated
"Add of Shiloh near Piasbur,g Landing, Tenn,,
April 18, 1802, and the postscript reads as fol
lows:
P. S. We were so unfortunate as not to be
able to get into the fight of the 6th and 7th
inst., but you will perceive from the annexed
copy of a testimonial I have just received, that
the few representatives we had on the field of
battle, did not reflect dishonor on their native
State. Smith is from Philadelphia, Hewitt
from Greene county, Hummel from Dauphin
county and Stevenson from Westmoreland.
Yours truly,
WM. J. PALMER
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE OHIO,
Camp on field of Shiloh, April 18, 1862.
SIR: I am directed by Major Gen. Buell,
commanding the army of the Ohio, to call your
„Attention to the good conduct of the men of
your company who accompanied him in the
late action on the field of Shiloh. Their names
are Norman M. Smith, John A. Stevenson, J.
R. Hewitt and Valentine B. Hummel.
They were all under fire and performed their
duties with the coolness of veterans. I would
add that the conduct of privates Smith end
Hewett came particularly under my own ob
servation, and the gallant manner in which,
during the hottest of the fight, they rallied
scattered parties of men and led them back to
their regiments is deserving of the highest cam
mendatio ns.
Very respectfully your obedient servant,
J. M. WRIGHT,
Assistant Adjutant General
CAPT. Wm. J. PALMER,
Commanding Anderson troop
Iu the name of the people of Harrisburg we
respond to the honor thus conferred on one of
our gallant young soldiers, and thus offer the
sewed of praise to the valiant young Hammel
until k higher authority renders him a juster
reward.
THE BRECKENRIDGE DEMOCRACY arc as full of
venom as copier -headed snakes. They are
ready to persecute every Democrat who evinces
higher regard for his country than for his party,
while no man is regarded as a Democrat who
refuses to damn abolitionism and extol slavery;
or who neglects a single opportunity to give
aid and comfort to the rebel slave drivers.
From the sheet that indulges in this slang in
this city, to the most contemptible Democratic
hebdomidal in the state, the spirit of malicious
partizan prejudice is the same. They have
no present political purpose in view,. be
cause these sheets are attached to no regularly
organized party. Their objects are all for
future mischief. They labor for power here
after, and to accomplish this they must now
engage in the detraction of every man who is
supporting the national administration in its
efforts to put down rebellion. They pause at
no falsehood, nor hesitate in any libel, so that
the confusion and disgrace of a Republican
state and national administration can be ac
complished. To-day they extol the Union, and
bellow loudly for its defence. Tomorrow they
malign' its cause a . nd traduce those who are
armed for its preservation. The purest men
that ever stood in the ranks of the Democratic
party, with the bold patriots who now lead the
Republican masses, are alike subject to these ,
slanders. Nothing is right, in their estimation,
but rebellion ; nothing defensible but theft and
perjury ; nothing worth fighting for but the
Democracy which has given birth to all these
crimes. The people of the free stated must be
on the alert for these wretches, now, or they
will succeed in their machination of giving aid
to the traitors of the south. If rebellion is to
succeed, let it rather succeed by the force of
those who are now in arms, than by the influ
ence Of those who are too cowardly to take up
arms in its defence. Of all other results, the
one most to,be deplored, is the anticipated suc-
cess of :the northern dough-face Breckenridge
Democracy.
hammyANA has Jess regiments in the field
than New York, and yet Pennsylvania has
more men in the service of the country. This
is accounted for by the fact that the New York
regiments are all below the maximum number
of those from this State, and thusorith less
men than Pennsylvania it requires more money
to pay the New York troops, for this reason:
New York, with more regiments, has more re
gimental and brigade officers to pay, and when
we add the pay of the staff of each of these
officers, it swells the expense considerably be_
yond that of Pennsylvania. The people of
New York are sharp. We recommend this
subject to the illustration of Harper's Weekly.
T once famous Ellsworth &naves have

AIVOTFLER TACT FOR TREASON.
This time one year ago, the chivalry of Vir
ginia and the "flower of the southern army,"
were preparing for the conquest of the free'
states. The "mud sills" of the north were not
only to be conquered, but they were to be car
ried off, enslaved and held to eternal bondage,
as the African is now held by his southern
master. The rebellion of the southern people
was not merely inaugurated to vindicate cer
tain domestic institutions and maintain certain
local rights.. Its leaders had higher aims in
view, and they struggled for a larger power
than that of ruling over the darkened minds of
their degraded slaves. af this had not been
the case, the army that was gathered at Manas
sas for the purpose of capturing Washington .
city and then overrunning the loyal states,
would have been distributed throughout the
south, or concentrated at other points than
Manassas, where the invasion of a northern
army would be more likely to occur. But the
southern leaders never dreamed that the fed
eral armies would be able to invade the south.
They had the assurance on which to base such
a conviction, from their secret Democratic al
lies in the north, who, unwilling themselves to
strike the blow which was to bring about the
social change necessary to the enslavement of
all labor, were still willing to aid those who
had rebelled for the purpose of degrading, if
not destroying that labor. The Breckenridge
wing of the Democratic party were as well pre
pared to welcome an invading army of southern
traitors, as those traitors deemed themselves
capable of succeeding in such an invasion.
There is nothing unjust in such a charge as
this, because it is fair to presume that the Dem
ocratic leaders at the north who were privy to
the preparations for rebellion, should also be
anxious to aid it to success.
The vigor of the federal government in the
prosecution of the war has changed not only
the policy of the rebels, but it has altered the
, tactics of those in the north who were pledged
to the rebellion in all the aid they could render
it for success. We hear no more of the injus
tice of "coercion ;" we are not reminded of the
"sovereign rights" of the slave drivers, nor is
it popular any longer to denounce the war as
an unholy crusade of brother on brother. All
this has become stale, fiat and unprofitable. It
has lost its effect on the minds of those who
are sworn and pledged to put down the rebel
lion ; and now, while our "mud sills" are win
ning the most brilliant victories in the south,
and while the northern mechanic, and laborer,
as volunteer soldiers, are teaching the chivalry
the most practical lessons on the battle field,
thesame old locofoco influence which denounced
the war as coercive is new opposing it as ex
. .
travagant—as an abolition mid—as a crusade
against the domestic institutions and rights of
the south. They make the "nigger" and the
almighty dollar the issue, so far as they are
concerned. They palsy the blows of the army,
when it seeks to strike for the Union, fearful
lest slavery may be-injured. They are contin-,
tally howling on the tracks - of contractors,
raking among the supplies of the army for
fraud, and imperiling the general cause of the
Union, in their mad efforts to destroy the or
ganization of the Republican party. These old
looofoco have no word of condemnation to utter
or print against the authors of and leaders In
the rebellion. They never allude to the millions
stolen from the government, in the shape of
arms, forts, arsenals and navy yards during the
Buchanan administration. All that is covered
andconcealed. It is not counted—but the expen
ditures of the government to crush the rebellion,
and replace the property destroyed and carried
off by a Democratic administration, is daily
ventilated, and daily published to the world as
the result of "abolitionism."
It is not necessary to enlarge further on the
games and tactics of these Democratic leaders
and presses. They are playing their part of the
rebellion programme faithfully. They make the
failures of the rebels to destroy the government
new excuses to attack the strugglei of patriotic
men as extravagance. They no longer play a
secret game. It is openly in opposition to the
administration—in opposition to every attempt
that has for its object the crushing out of re
bellion by removing its cause. The next move
moment on the part of the dough faces will be
the bold proposition of removing our armies
from the south, reconstructing the Union on
the basis of a general, pardon of all who were
engaged in the rebellion. Nor will it end here.
It is now boldly declared in the conversation of
leading Democrats, that the debts of the rebel
lion must eventually be paid by the people in
common of the entire Union: Such- are the
tactics with which the Democratic party is now
giving aid and comfort to the slaveholder's re
bellion.
DI9OHAAGII FOR PHTEI/CAL DDIAB/LITY.-A new
measure is proposed in Congress, to facilitate
discharges of enlisted men from military ser
vices, in cases of physical disability incapaci
tating for active service. Soldiers afflicted
with chronic maladies had much rather be dis
charged than to remain in hospital. It is
proposed to make a simple certificate of the
Surgeon General, or either of the Inspectors, a
discharge.
A WASHINGTON rumor is to the effect that a
correspondence between Generals McClellan
and Hooker has taken place, in which the com
manding general expresses the opinion that
Booker should not have delivered up slaves
coming into his camp upon he demand of
their alleged owners, but should have protect
ed them, leaving the Government to decide
the question of their return, confiscation or
emancipation. Is this true? ,
Tax great rush of volunteers to Beauregard's
army is now explained. The report was pub
lished all over the south that Buell's and
Grant's armies were destroyed, and all that
Beauregard had to do was to march forward
without resistance. That's the' way the rebels
work. They are bully in a fight with a help
less negro, or a non-resisting
_northern man.--

Departure of French War Steamer Dassandi.
DEOISIONi ON THE NEW TILT BILL.
WesnmexoN, May 1.
The French steamer of war Gas sandi left here
this morning.
Certain New York importers having claimed
the entr ti of ostrich feathers at the rate of ten
per centum, the Secretary of the Treasury on
appeal has decided that they must pay thirty
per cent , stating that the term employed in the
act of August last of feathers is a general one,
unaccompanied by any qualification as to va
riety or condition.
He has also decided that octagonal iron hav
ing been made to assume a form different from
any one of these specified in the law is subject
to a duty of twenty dollars per ton.
Also, that cotton towels although the pro
poition of color in the whole fabric is small
yet which are introduced for the purpose of
making the article more beautiful and thereby
enhancing its value, must pay a duty of ten
per cent. additional to the one and a half cents
per square yard provided by law.

The Details of the Fall of New Orleans
Suppressed by the Rebels.
Curio, April 30
A refugee from Memphis reports that the
town of Humboldt was occupied by a small
rebel force, engaged in throwing up defensive
works. He brings Memphis papers of the
26th.
They contain but little matter, further than
a confirmation of the fall of New Orlems. The
Avalanche grumbles that the rebel authorities
suppress the details in regard to the affair, and
says that nothing but the bare tact of the sur
render is known.
The same paper says the Southern people are
fast losing all confidence in their river de
fences._ It is generally admitted that the
Union army can be no longer successfully re
sisted.
It also intimates a lack of confidence in the
stability of the Southern Confederacy by ad
vising its patrons to invest whatever money
they have in real estate while the purchase can
be made with the currency now in circulation,
Which consists principally of rebel treasury
notes.
The conscription law is being rigidly enforced.
The Union men are secreting themselves or
flying to avoid its operation.
The same refugee also reports that those
merchants who are of avowed secession proclivi
ties are removing their - goods to places of con
cealment and security. Large numbers of
families are moving away daily.
The idea of burning'the town has been aban
doned, in consequence of the determined op
position of property holders. It was currently
reported at Memphis that Beauregard has not,
over 80,000 men at Corinth, and no hope is
entertained of his successfully resisting Gen.
Halleck, who was believed to have 200,000
men.
As our informant left Memphis it was report
ed that the rebel gunboat fleet from New Or
leans was in sight, bound up the river; to join
Hollins' fleet.
From Gen. Banks' Column.
HARRiBONBURG, Va., April 29
At noon to-diy, a national salute was fired
from an eminence near the town, in honor of
the event at New Orleans. The regimental
bands assembled at the Court House square and
played "Hail Columbia."
The soldiers gave nine cheers, and then the
band followed with the airs of the "Red, White
and Blue," "Dixie" and the "Star Spangled
Banner." After a recess, the bands consolida
ted and marched through the principal streets,
playing "Yankee Doodle" and , Dixie," to the
disgust of certain prominent inhabitants.
Three thousand rebels, under Gen. Edward
Johnson, formerly of the United States Army,
are posted a few miles from Staunton, but in a
position easily accessible for escape in case of
Gen. Milray's approach.
The most reliable news from Gordonsville is
to the effect that only four brigades are there,
not numbering 15,000 men.
Longstreet with his command has gone to
Yorktown. Should Johnson retire he will
probably reinforce General Jackson off Blue
Ridge.
The Richmond Examiner of the 22d, says, in
effect : " The destiny of the Confederacy is
trembling on the result at Yorktown. If, we
are successful it will give us six months for
carrying out the conscription aet, arming and
equipping a large army, and launching a fleet
of Merrimacs ; but, if unsuccessful, Virginia is
lost."

SERIOUS SKIRMISH NEAR CORINTH.
United States Troops Victorious.
Canto, April 30.
The steamer which has just arrived from
Pittsburg reports that a serious skirmish took
place between the advance of the Union army,
five thousand strong, and a large body of Re
bels, five miles from Corinth.
The United States troops were victorious.—
No mention is made of the losses on either side.
The United States forces took twenty-nine
prisoners.
The cannonading was still heard when the
steamier left.
LATE FROM FORT WRIGHT,
HEAVY CANNONADING HEARD
Caroecio, April 430
A special dispatch from Cairo to the Times
says: An arrival from Tiptonville reports that
heavy conuonading was heard throughout.
Monday night and Tuesday in the direction of
Fort Wright.
There has been no arrival from the fleet sicken
Monday noon.
It is apprehended that the rebel fleet at the
fort had been reinforced by the gunboats from
New Orleans, and attacked our fleet. This
was not unexpected, and,the last advices from
the fleet gave assurance that Com. Foote was
fully prepared for them.
FROM FORTRESS MONROE.
BA_LTIMORE, May ]
The Old Point letter contains nothing except
an announcement of a new arrangement of the
harbor masters by which all merchant vessels
are required to report an arrival to the captain
of the port, and are not allowed to leave with
out his permission, or at all after dark or before
daylight. Not a word in reference to anything
else has been received.
xxxviith Congress--First Session.
WASHINGTON, May 1,
SENATE.
Mr. Howeun, (Mich.,) presented petitions in
favor of a general bankrupt act.
Mr. WEIGHT, (Ind.,) presented a memorial
from John Brock offering to build a city rail
road in Washington, in sixty days, and pay
$lO,OOO annually to the city.
Mr. Wiliam also presented petitions for a
bankrupt act. He said none of them were from
Indiana.
Mr. Wnaos, (Mass.,) offered a resolution that
the Secretary of War report to the Senate
whether one Frederick Emory, who murdered
Wm. Phillips in Leavenworth, Kansas, In 1855
or 1856, had been,appointed to any place in the
Department in Kansas.
Mr. 'ANN, (Kansas,) said-that the government
to-day had before it the Kansas difficulty, and
he presumed would remedy the evils.
The resolution was laid over.
Mr. Davis, (Ky.,) offered a resolution declar
ing that the war now carried on by the United
States of America should be vigorously prose
cuted and continued to compel obedience to the
Constitution and laws, in the limits of every
territory, by all the citizens and residents
thereof, and for no further end whatever.
On motion of Mr. Susumu, (Mass.,) the reso
lution was laid over.
On motion of Mr. Wusos, (Mass.,) the reso
lution asking the military committee to inquire
whether any further . legislation is necessary to
prevent soldiers and officers returning fugitive
slaves, was taken up.
Mr. SnasMaN, (Ohio,) said he was glad that
the Senator from lowa, in his speech, had
called attention to the conduct of some officers
concerning fugitives. He said one general,
who lately made an order returning fugitives,
was a native of Massachusetts, and he, (Mr.
Sumner,) had used his greatest influence to
get him appointed. If he had known that
General Hooker would have made such an or
ner, he would never have tried to secure hie
appointment. When a general fails in battle
some honor mingles with the feeling of regret,
but where a general falls as General Hooker has
fallen, there is nothing but regret to be felt.—
He referred to the order of Gen. Doubleday as
a contrast in whichate did honor to his contry.
He also referred to the course of Gen. McCook
in the West,and the Provost Marshall of Louis
ville as a disgrace to the army. He read an
account of the oppression to which the blacks
at Louisville had to submit.
Mr. Davis (Ky.) asked where he got that ac
count.
Mr, Smarm replied from a newspaper in. New
York.
Mr. Davis said there was no doubt of its fal
sity.
Mr, WrsoN (Mass.) said he had abundant evi
dence of the disgraceful treatment of fugitive
slaves by portions of the army.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr. BrAra, (M 0.,) called up the bill which
had been recently reported from the Committee
on Military Affairs, authorizing the appoint
ment of a board on fortifiations, to provide for
the sea coast and other defenses of the United
Stetes, and other purposes. An abstract of the
bill was published on the 24th of April.
Mr. BLAIR explained its provisions, and, in
in response to a question, said it suspended the
appropriations for fortifications already made,
and provided that the money shall be expended
upon such works of defence as shall be recom
mended by the commission proposed to be cre
ated by the bill.
The consideration of the bill was proposed
till Tuesday week.
Mr. DUNN, (Ind.,) from the Committee on
Military Affairs, reported a bill for the better
organization of the Adjutant General's De
partment.
Mr. LOVIJOY, (Ill.) from the Committee on
Territories, reported a bill to render freedom
national and slavery sectional.

A bill was reported from the Committee on
Ways and Means to-day an amendatory of the
act to provide for increased revenues from
imports, to pay ;,the interest on public debts
and for other purposes,
approved on the sth
day of August last. It allows such portion of
the tax as may be assessed by any State or ter
ritory, or the District of Columbia,' to be paid
and satisfied in part or in part by the release of
such State,
Territory and district duly execu
ted to the United States, of any liquidated L ot.
determined claim pertaining thereto, of equal
amount against the United States. Provided,
That. in case of such release, such State, terri
tory or district shall be allowed 'he same abate
ment of the amount of such tax as would be

money, which shall be continued as applying t)
such claims of the State for the reimbursement
of expenses incurred by them in enrolling, sub
sisting, clothing, supplying, arming, equipping,
paying and transporting its troops employed in
aiding to suppress the present insurrection
against the United States, as shall be filed with
the proper officers of the United States before
the 80th of July next, and in such cases the
abatement of fifteen per centum shall be made
on, such portion of said tax as may be paid by
the allowance of such claims in whole or in
part the same as of the final settlement and
liquidation thereof had been made before the
30th of June.
