THE UNION-THE CONSTITUTION-AND
THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW.
HARRISBURG, PA
Thursday ifteruoou, May 8, 186.
As out /muss advance, reconquering and
taking possession of the territory and fortifica
tions which the rebels stole from the federal
government, it becomes necessary that each '
point should be garrisoned by soldiers who are
faithful, loyal and competent for such service.
The policy which governs the commanders of
our armies, is the same as that which now
animates the leaders of the People's Party. As
it becomes necessa^y, for the safety of our
armies, to hold what they have conquered, so
is it essential to the success of the government,
that the administration which now wields its
power should also be sustained. If we do not
sustain President Lincoln, and support the war
policy of his administration, we have no right
to hope for the crushing out of rebellion.
Those who sympathize with the rebels under
stood this fact, and are therefore engaged in
embarrassing the administration, not by a direct
opposition to the war, as much as by an under
stood assault on the past and present promi
nent men who were and still are identified with
that administration. The leaders of the fee-'
Mons in the Democratic party, are too cowardly
to make a direct issue on the war, notwithstand
My they are all laboring to make the results of this
war accrue to the benefit of the south. This benefit
is to be derived the moment the Democratic
party achieves power, in such shapes as made
the fugitive slave law constitutional, and set
up the sovereignty of states as imminent above
that of the Constitution as the supreme law of
the land. Against such objects, then, we must
garrison every political post, and by all honora
ble means, prevent the leaders of the so-called
Democratic party from ever again becoming
possessed of the powers of government. Any
compromise must be effected, but that which
would enable the Democracy to make an
alliance with the slave oligarchy to leave
slavery in status quo, and make the minions
of that principle the myrmidons ready at
any period again to distract the nation with
rebellion. If there are any compromises to
be made hereafter, let them be so effected as to
conciliate the people of the loyal states, and
let the loyal men of the rebel states acquiesce.
Let the loyal men of the rebel states beware of
the northern dpugh-face, as far more dangerous
to his interests than the most fanatical aboli
tionist in the north, because the compromise
which the dough-face seeks to make with the
leaders in this rebellion, is such as must neces
sarily force the disgrace of the struggle on the
loyal, while the rebel aristocracy would be
permitted to escape not only with the exculpa
tionspf the law, but with also the applause and
the confidence of the world.
What we want in this juncture of the politics
of Pennsylvania, is a maw, of all the true men
—a union of all brave and loyal men, such as
will not only defeat the anti-war party, but as
will put to shame and disgrace those who have
defended that same principle of human slavery
which, in this rebellion, seeks to put an end to
free government. We want a union against
such plotters as the cliques who rally around
the Pillsbury Post, Valley Spirit, Lancaster Intetli
gencer, and other kindred sheets. We want a
union to counteract the efforts of such men as
William H. Hopkins, Pierce Butler, James
Buchanan and Deacon Barrett. We want a
union of the people that the National Union
may be preserved from the conspiracies of the
slave-bolding Democracy. We want a 'Union
of the mases, that the dough-face Democrats
may be frustrated in their conspiracy to com
promise with rebellion. In such a union, as in
the garrisoning of all the conquered posts along
the line of our invading armies, it becomes all
true men to participate.
Is is um Ramos of those presses like the
Patriot, which dare not openly assail the gov
ernment, to charge great corruption on the
administration, and to assert, for instance, that
some one of the Republican representatives in
Congress, made an open charge that silty-one
millions of dollars had been filched from the
treasury by corrupt speculations. While such
stories are not worthy of notice, they naturally
attract attention from the magnitude of the
charge preferred in their recital; and while these
wretches are thus indulging in these sweeping
charges, they. forget that they are making a
wholesale accusation, and that instead of only
serving their present purpose of bringing
a particular party into disgrace, they are
seriously damaging the public credit. When
they are certain that they have accomplished
the demoralization of Republicanism, they will
also become satisfied that they have served
the rebellion to their fullest ability. And yet,
it would'be as frank for those who thus indulge
in such stuff, to assert that siz hundred, instead of
sixty millions of dollars, had been stolen. It would
not make the locofoco game of disgracing the
government any more despicable, and would
equally as soon find credence with the masses
of the people. Let the dough-faces tell huge
lies while they are about it, because their days
for falsehood will soon terminate.
The tax of 20 cents per gallon on whisky
and 20 cents per pound on tobacco, it it esti
mated, will yield $40,000,000.
How Z6i L MAGWANLMOUS PEOPLII may from
self-respect choose to carry their forbearance
towards demoniac rebels, is a question for
themselves to determine. There is no wrong to
the rebels in employing and arming slaves for
suppressionof this "slaveholders' insurrection,"
after what they have done in the very spirit of
. the bottomless pit for the overthrow of the
government. The howls of their sympathisere
will fall upon ears deaf to such outcry from
them The policy which General Hunter is re
ported to have adopted is, we presume, limited,
and for a apeCific purpose. The posts of the
south cannot be abandoned again to the hands
of the rebels, but must be retained through
the approaching sickly season. The troops of
the north are unacclimated, and therefore hu
manity would dictate that they should, as far
as possible, be replaced by men who can endure
the trials of that olimate. Those who imagine
the negro slaves, even the most stolid, cannot
be drilled into soldiers capable of resisting
effectively their chivalric masters, mistake their
character. Under the control of competent
officers, with the hope of freedom and the fear
of re-enslavement, negroes will fight. From
outrages they will of course be restrained.
For the purpose of garrisoning the re-captared
forts in part, and such other military service ae
they are capable of under the discipline, and
restraint of white officers, we see nothing to
disapprove of in General Hunter's policy. Upon
other grounds than a consideration of what is
due to the rebels, we have opposed, and do still
oppose, any general arming of the free black.
of the north, or the slaves of the south, as
soldiers in this war. We have white men
enough, willing and ready to put down
the rebels, with all their slave auxiliaries
and all their Indian allies. But some con
sideration is due to the brave patriot soldiers
of these loyal states. Their lives are too pre
cious to be throw away upon a chivalrous scru
ple. We acquiesce, therefore, in the expedi
ency of fighting the devil with a lade of his own
infernal fire. They who scruple not to arm
their own blacks, and to employ the savage
Indians of the frontier to "protract the war
until the sickly season," relying upon a contin
uance of scrupulous advantage, will find them
selves for once in a fatal error. The idea of
arming slaves and Indians against us was not at
all revolting. The tables 'are turned to a lim
ited extent, in consequence of their prolonged
resistance, and they may comfort themselves,
either with reflecting upon their own atrocities
or the equally comforting thought that this
which they dread is the work of their own
hands. Not even upon the principle of retalli
ation would we sanction the general arming of
slaves at the south for servile war upon their
masters. A policy as just and more moderate
would be equally effective for the suppression
of the rebellion.
WHEN MODERN DEMOCRATS are tested by the
facts of the record, and when a fair comparison
of their acts with their profession is made, we
discover at once the real authors of our present
national embarrassment. A western cotempo
rary has enumerated these facts, which we com
mend to the perusal and remembrance of every
loyal man in the land:
It is a fact that the only persons from the
North, who have been found by us in the rebel
army, and taken prisoners, are Democrats.
It is a fact that the only parties at the North
who Justify or apologize for the rebels are Demi
ocrats
It is a fact that the only party in the NAPth
supported by the disloyal is the Democratic.
It is a fact that the only men elected to office
at the North about whose loyalty there is any
question are elected by Democrats.
It is a fact that the only disloyal newspapers
at the North are Democratic.
It is a fact that the only papers which have
been suppressad for their treasonable utterances
were Democratic.
It is a fact that the only Northern apologists
and defenders of the institution of slavery are
Democrats.
It is a fact that the only parties who lament
over the abolition of slavery in the District of
Columbia are Democrats.
It is a fact that th only party which opposes
the complete prostoration of the rebellion by
the force of arms is the Dtmocratio.
It is a fact that all the opposition to a full
and complete vindication of the majesty of the
Government, in this unholy war upon It, comes
from the Democrats.
Let our Republican readers make a note o
these facts, and when assailed by a Democrat
quietly ask for a comparison of records.
THI MINOCHATIO party will seek to restore the
Union upon its ancient bans.—Breckenridge organ.
By this ancient basis we are to infer that all
the southern rebels will immediately be en
franchised—that the influence of slavery will
prevent a Senator or Representative in Congress
from opposing the evils of that testae tion—and
that southern statesmen will once more be in
vested with authority to wield the power of this
government for the exclusive benefit of the
slave interest. It can mean nothing else; com
ing from the source it does, because the leaders
who supported Breckenridge, hoped for nothing
more. It can mean only this, because the
Democratic party, under its southern leaders,
affected to despise every policy which did not
offer to sacrifice the rights of free to the claims
of slave labor. Will the people of this state
lend themselves to such a restoration. Will
they not rather restore the Union, with its laws
and authority vindicated—with its influence
and power once more acknowledged, not only
by the nigger driving traitor and the locofoco
dough-face, but by the people of the world.—
This is the restoration we seek. This is the
settlement we contend for. Any other would
only result in placing the corrupt men of the
locofoco party in power, while the result would
be to invest the Union with additional dsnger,
by placing the highest authority of its govern
ment in the bands of its meanest foes.
Iticanosn papers declare that the rebels will
stand and give the federalists tight, two miles
from that city. The same journals also state
that "the Yankees are to be driven from Vir
ginia." If we can judge, we have no notion
that our armies are to be "driven" from that
state, as they pass through in pursuit of the
flying traitors.

Probable Capture of the Entire Rebel Army
BALTIMORE, May 8
The following was received from Yorktown,
dated yesterday at 12 o'clock : To-day, as I
close my letter, the latest intelligence received
from the field of battle is that Gen. M'Clel lan
has come up with the enemy, about eight miles
beyond Williamsburg, and after a pretty severe
skirmish with his rear, he again put him to
flight across the Chickahominy creek.
A large additional number of prisoners have
been taken, including many deserters who le
port that they have had nothing to eat but a
few hard biscuits for forty-eight hours and when
brought in fell down in a state of exhaustion.
Heavy cannonading could be heard by the
boats coming down the river at an early hour
this morning. Nothing as to the results is
ascertained.
There is no doubt but that the whole army
of Lee, Johnson and Magruder are in a state of
disorganisation, and under the rapid pursuit of
Gen. McClellan are fleeing with great precipi
t ttion, and without the intention of making a
stand anywhere, and unless they reach Rich
mond in boata by way of the James river will
certainly be intercepted and captured by the
forces landed and landing at West Point.
A. large number of prisoners are arriving at
West Point, and others are being constantly
brought in.
On Monday the enemy took about eighty of
our men prisoners and captured one of the
Pennsylvania batteries, having first killed all
the horses and they having but a small support
of infantry were overpowered by a superior
force, and were compelled to abandon their
guns, but before the close of the day this bat
tery with one of the enemies was recaptured by
Gen McClellan, and the prisoners they had
taken were found in Williamsburg next day
attending on the wounded of the enemy lett
behind. Their retreat was accompanied by too
much confusion to be troubled with prisoners.
I just learn that the enemy has destroyed all
the bridges across the Chickahominy, and that
Gen, M'Olellan is resting his army on this side.
It will be remembered that the Chickahominy
iverr runs parallel with the James river, into
which it empties.
It is the general impression that Gen.M.'Olel
lan has now got the enemy just where he wants
him.
The Battle before Williams-
burg on Monday.
FtrRTRER PARTICULARS
Baumann, May 8
The battle before Williamsburg on Monday
was a most warmly contested engagement.—
Owing to the roughness of the country and bad
condition of the roads, but a small portion of
our troops could be brought into action.
Gen. Sickles' Excelsior Brigade, of Gen.
Hooker's division, bore the great brunt of the
battle and fought most valorously though
greatly overpowered by numbers and the supe
rior position and earthworks of the enemy.
The approaches to their works were a series of
ravines and Swamps ; while the rain fell in tor
rents throughout the day. The men had also
been lying on their arms all the previous night
in the woods, soaked with rain and chilled with
cold.
The battle raged from early in the morning
until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when General
hi'Clellan arrived with fresh troops and re
lieved the division of Gen. Hooker, who were
nearly prostrate with fatigue and exposure,
whilst the 3d Excelsior regiment of the brigade
had its ranks terribly thinned by the balls of
the enemy. They are represented as having
fought with such impudent bravery that not
less than two hundred of them were killed and
wounded
After the arrival of Gen. M'Clellan the
enemy were fiercely charged upon by Hancock's
brigade, and were driven within their works,
before nightfall, with heavy loss. Nearly 200
of their dead were left on the field, with many
astounded, though most of the latter were car
ried into Williamsburg. Our loss was less than
300 killed and about 700 wounded. Night
having come on we occupied the battle field,
the enemy having been driven within his
works.
A large number of wagons and munitions of
war and a considerable store of provisions were
found in town, whilst the road was strewn for
many miles with arms and accoutrements. A
number of deserters also made their escape and
cams, within our lines. They stated that the
rebels had received intelligence that large
numbers of the United States troops were land
ing on 'York river above Williamsburg to flank
them.

Messrs. Richardson, Knapp and Kobinson, of
Illinois, Law and 'Voorhies, of Indiana, Allen,
White, Noble, Pendleton, Morris and Yellen
digbam, of Ohio, Johnson and Ancona, of
Pennsylvania, and Shiel, of Orern. have Is
sued an address to the Democracy of the
United States, setting forth party organisation
as a positive good and caseation to the preser
vation of public liberty. This they say
is now a vital necessity and invite
all men without distir ct ten of State
section or party who are for the Constitution as
it is, and the Union as it was, to unite with
them in their great work upon terms of perfect
equality. This they argue is the great issue.
The Navy Department has re cei wed dispatches
from Commodore Dupont to day, dated Port
Royal, May 2d, giving interesting particulars
of an exhibition on the 29th ult., with the
Hale, to capture a battery on Grumbairs plan
tation, near the Junction of the Dawho, Poa-
Pow and South Edisto rivers.
It appears that the enemy opened on the
Hale when within eighteen hundred yards and
continued their fire us she wound her way to
engage them at close quarters, but when the
Hale reached the last trend and was making a
straight course for the battery the rebels tied
in haste.
Lieutenant Gillis landed with a party of men
to d,strov it The work was about three hun
dred and fifty yards from the river bank and
mounted two fine lung twenty-four pounders
on excellent field carriages. One of the guns,
so rapid was the flight of the rebels, was lett
loaded and primed.
The Hale returned t. her anchorage without
haying a man injured.
Another report details the proceedings at
Bulls bay.
Lieut. Nickels crossed the bar with the
Onward on the 7th ult., and anchored within
800 yards of a light house on Bull's Island,
and opened fire on a small work situated about
fifty yards to the southward of the light house.
Shortly after be landea in his boats, covered by
the guns of the Onward. The rebels fired
upon the party, but not awaiting an attack,
escaped from the island to the mainland.
The Onward has now complete command of
the channel, so that no vessel can either enter
or go out.
On the 3d ult. Lieutenant Commanding Nich
olson, of the Isaac Smith, then stationed at
St. Augustine, having heard that a schooner
had come in over Matanzas for some thirteen
miles to the southward, dispatched three armed
boats, together with a detachment of twenty
five men from Colonel Bell's command to cap
ture her, which was done, and the schooner
brought to St. Augustine.
The schooner was called the Empire city. She
had an English register and cleared from Nas
ran for St. Johns, N. C. Her cargo consisted
of provisions, dry goods, medicines, etc.
In consideration of the fact that the citizens
of St. Augustine was without the necessaries of
of life and with no means of getting them,
Lie it. Nicholson sold the cargo, or a portion of
it, at auction, considering the overruling ne
cessity.
The gunboat Kerhawa on the 21st nit., off
Mobile, captured the B. C. Files, which was
attempting to run the blockade. She was
lo tiled with cotton and has been sent to Key
West.
