H RBIS B G , PA.
Saturday Morning; May 24,'1882.
Rims Bvscesnasans, in the opinion of some
of — our radical cotemporaries, find strange
sources of consolation for rebel deluders. They
have a strange system of explaining the sod
dents and the logical retinae of war, never
failing as they thus draw consolation from
gloom and dispair, to fix a reason in the minds
of their deluded followers, such as.only tends
for a while to postpone the unalterable misery
and desolation awaiting the authors and prose
outors of the rebellion. Is one of their strong
holds, fortified with immense labor, evacuated,
they see profound "strategy" on the part of
the rebel officers in that. Are their forts, one
after another, surrendered, their cities taken,
their vessels sunk or captured, their armies
unable to maintain a position, they, discover
great encouragement for the rebel cause in all
these. Their jollity is in the inverse ratio to
any real cause of it. If Beauregard were utterly
routed at Corinth and his army cut in pieces or
taken, they would insist that this was part of
their own programme. One of the Richmond
papers has proposed an ingenious and cer
tainly a most comforting theory on the sub.
jeot. According to this view every defeat
renders them stronger, because it drives
them farther bank. The sea coast in all its
extent is not worth the holding, and cities
and towns are mere ineumbranoes to Military
defence. 4 When they are driven in the fast
mimes of the mountains and hemmed in on
every side, the confederacy will be completely
established and invincible. Its capital upon
some rocky peak ; Its supplies to be gathered
from ravines and mountain sides ; the rem
nants
of its armies collected into one—then,
acoording to the theory, will its "lines of de-'
fence be shortened," and its 'entire strength
" concentrated for the moat determined resist
;amcrt to federal arms and invasion." This
cbeer — ful. view of their disestera' may serve to
comfort silly women and children, or half
.witted men among the rebels. . Bat the more
itagscious, while affecting to discern grounds of
hope in the lc strategy" of perpetual defeat,
khow the rebel cause is now utterly hopeless.
In' the outset, and for several months after
wards,. they might have felt sanguine ; for a
period after that, they might with some reason
have counted on the probability of foreign
intervention. But the events of the campaigns
this spring are decisive, and no: well-informed
sympathiser, whatever he may pretend, has
Any_nial hope that the rebellion will succeed.
no PENNSYLVANIA Ranatoan, while it affords
the greatest illustration of the energy and en
merpise of our peciple, Is also beginning to at
tract in Europe, for its management, the greet
ed commendation. The London &miner, in an
able article indicates, how an intelligent Euro
pean authority appreciates this management.
While commenting on the financial condition
. and resources of the road, the &angina says that
the point to which it desires to draw attenticn
is, that out of the net profits there is nearly
as ouch devoted to the redemption' of data as to the
paymmt of dividends, and a sum nearly as large
ad botkainking fund and dividauf fund united, is
applied to the purchase of locomotives and
cars to meet the increased business of the line.
Our English system is to ignore posterity on
the . principle that posterity , never did anything
for us. The Pennsylvania railroad company
appears to carry its consideration for posterity
to the utmost limits. Perhaps there is a
happy Medium wherein both systems might
unite with• advantage. Bat there is such a
contrast between the practice of this American
line and that of our English railways, that
we cannot resist the opportunity of pointing
to it.
A Ilarz has recently passed the House of Rep
resentatives, which, if it passes the Senate and
becomes a law, will work hard on some of the
legal fraternity in the free states, who are
known to be secret sympathizers with the re
hellion. The object of the bill la to compel
everylawyer practicing in any of the Courts, be
fore any bureau of the government, or any
ooniinisaioners, first to take a solemn oath of
*Regime. to the government. We consider
this proposition one of the most effective blows
which has yet been aimed at the doughfaceisna
and treasonable sympathy of certain politicians
-and legal gentlemen in the free states. There
it not a bar in these states, that does not con
*in one or more of these gentrY, so that the
klnw'shoed will fall with effect wherever there

A &MOH prevailed in Washington city yes

SURVEYOR GENERAL
The present head of the Surveyor General's
Department of Pennsylvania, Hon. Edmund
Souther, has signified his intention not to
be a candidate for election to the same position,
on account of the pressing demands of his pri
vate business ; while the Hon. John Rowe, a
gallant and unflinching Union Democrat, hav
ing also expressed such a determination, based
on the same ground, we feel at liberty to bring
forward the name of W. S. Roes, of Luzerne
county, a Union member of the last House of
Representatives, as a fit person for the position
thus named. To the general public, Mr. Ross
may not be so well known as either of the gen
tlemen named in this connection, but in his
own,vicinity, and among those with whom he
has passed - the best years of his life, he is well
known as a man of large business capacities,
unfailing intelligence and unswerving loyalty,
During his legislative career; Kr. Ross gave the
best evidence of his fitness , for public business,
from the fact that he was as aesifincitur in the
discharge of his duties in the House ) as any
man could be in the care of his own private
enterprises. •
On the great issues now involved in the bat
tle for the talon, Mr. Ross has entirely dis
carded party, and taken his stand where he can
best servo hie country. He has no politics that
rise higher than the national safety. He knows
no political creed which inculcates a difference
with the constitution and law of the land
Representing thus a pore conservative concep
tion of what is 088811q/11 for the peace and pros
petity of the government the Union people of
Penniyivania could make an issue alone with
the name of Mr. Ross ; but as he shrinks from
no avowal of his principles of faith in and de
votion to the sovereignty of the federal power
against the attempts of traitors to destroy the
government, the people can safely rest his elec
tion, if, nominated, on a test of principal such
as must meet the approval of every loyal man
in the state.
—We confidently submit the nae►e of Mr.
Roes to our friends. We submit it to the Union
men of Pennsylvania as one worthy of their
confidence and lupport. And we submit it,
too, without any knowledge on his part, or
invitation of , any of his friends, but alone
upon the merits of the man do we thus nomi
nate Mr. Ross as a candidate for Surveyor
General.
BONORABLE ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
The policy and action which have governed
and distinguished Pennsylvania in this crisis,
not only dada emulation among her sister
states, but the Governors of those states are be
ginning to acknowledge the obligation under
which the action:of the authorities of Peru:tut
vania has severally placed them. These ac
knowledgments are with referenci to the treat
meat of wounded and sick soldier& Thil duty
was one of the first. Proilded:for by Gov.
Curtin. He did not postpone preparation for
the care of the soldier, until he was bronght to
the state languishing with disease or mangled
by battle, but as each regiinent left the state,
these preparations were made, and every acoom
modatlon secured at home and abroad, for the
comfort and relief of the soldier: The result
has been, that as soon as a Pennsylvania sol
dier was found in distress, there" promptly by
his side were the means of relief, afforded with -
out display or confusion, and contributed with
out regard to coot or labor. What citizen of the
Keystone state will hesitate to respond to the
impulse Which-dictated this noble policy ; and
what Pennsylvanian will fail to feel aglow of
pride as he reads such acknowledgements as
the following, from the Governor of Indiana.
By this letter it will be seed that Pennsylvania
not only had gathered the means on the heels
of battle to succor her own soldiers, but these
preparations were so ample that the suffering
of no soldier appealed in vain to the humanity
of her agents. We submit, briefly, the letter
of Governor. Morton, to His Excellency, the
Governor of Pennsylvania:
S! OR PiplANA,Bouriva DiPARTIaNT,
Indianapolis, April 8, 1862.
Sat am directed _by Governor Horton to
acknowledge the receipt of your esteemed favor
of. the sth inst., and to tender his grateful
thanks to his Excellency, the Governor of
Pennsylvania and to yonrself,for the kind and
humane treatment Lieutenants Lindsey and
Slocum, of the Fourteenth Indiana regiment,
have received at your hands. •
Arrangementsare now being matured In this
State for taking care of all the sick and wounded
who may be sent to ns, Without regard to the
States to which they may belong ; and indica
tions are, that, during the progress of the pre
sent vigorous campaign of the great - army of
the West, there will be many such. •It may be
that az this way Indiana will be able in some
degree to repay the kindoest which your hon
ored State has shown to our own brave men.
For any future favors of a similar character
which the military authorities or citizens of
your State may render , the Governor can only
say that he wi be placedi under renewed obli
gations, and will take pleasure in acknowledg
ing the same in any proper_ manner, or in re
ciprocating the kindness in asimilar way should
opportunity offer.
I have the the honor to be, sir,
Very respectfully, your obd't servant,

OUR DISTRICT ATIORJOY.
Among the most important officers of the
county, is the District Attorney. His duties
are directly connected with the lives of the
people and the peace of our communities, and
upon his action in almost all cases, the security
of both life and peace depends. Therefore the
county which possesses such an officer has in
deed reason for congratulation ; and that Dan;
phin county has such an officer in the person
A. Jackson Herr, the people themselves have
frequently admitted. With this admission, it
is gratifying to know that the reputation of a
good officer extends beyond the scenes of his
duty, and is acknOwledged by our cotemporaries
of the press in a manner at once honorable to
Mr. Herr and pleasing to the people whom he
.
serves. On this-point, the editor of the Lan
caster Am* Express thus frankly refers to our
District Attorney. The compliment is well
conceived and courteously couched :
.
Ax .ErrifireriT 01710o1L— During a merit visit
to Harrisburg, we fell in with an old acquain
tance in the person of A. J. Herr, lhxt., the
present efficient District Attorney for Dauphin
county, a position which he has filled with sig
nal ability for the past eta years. Our previous
personal acquaintanceivith Mr. Herr dated back
to his minority, and before he 'had chosen a
profession. At , that time his. . character was
marked with great energy, vigor•of purpose
and suavity of manner, traits which the study
and practice of the profession of the law have
developed in the full strength of a vigorous
mind, clear judgment, and unflagging industry.
We saw him le court, amidst a press of official
duties, and we could not fail to be Impressed
with the thOught that here is a man who is
pursuing just the profession for which both na
ture and education peculiarly fitted him. The
business connected with the district attorney
ship of Dauphin county Is unusually large, but
Mr. Herr is always,up to the demand upon his
energy, and can always find time for attending
to new business, just when it ought to be done.
The fact that he has filled this important office
so long with such • acknowledged ability and
satisfaction to all having leeriness with him, is
no less complimentary to his fellow . citizens
than to himself ; for this, dike the jndiciery, is
an office in which a change should not be made
except for cause. We don't know what. Mr.
Herr's politics is, except that his loyalty . has
never been, and cannot be, doubted ; end his
fellow citizens could not, therefore, do them
selves a greater creffit t or render the office a
more important service, than by continuing
him another term, whether he seeks it or not.
A Beiticaurr Law is still urged upon the at
tention of Congress by leading merchants
and mechanics of the country. It should be
remarked, that -in Mr. Oonkling's bill upon
this subject, there was a provision whereby a
loyal Northern merchant can seise upon rebel
property anywhere and satisfy his legal de
mands upon it. Such a proposition alone
should secure the passage of a bankrupt law, as
it would speedily give prosperity to hundreds
and thousands of loyal merchants and manu
facturers who were ruined through the rebel
lion, or rather through the dishonest repudia
tion of private debts by rebel creditors. Doubt
less this clause enipowering a loyal creditor to
seize the property of a traitor debtor anywhere,
has something to do with the opposition which
is waged to this measure by the old Brectrin
rifle organs in the loyal states. It holds good
in every instance pf such oppeeition, that the
measures opposed• are designed to bring traitors
to judgment. .
Tsa theory that northern `soldiers are mon
sters is not yet given up by the Bichmond pa
pers. In the same page in which the Dispatch
printa an account of the humane treatment of
rebel wounded by our soldiers at Williamsburg,
it asserts, that of the soldiers of Qen. Bank's
army
—"some of the drunken stragglers shot hogs,
sheep and other stock on the route, and select
ing a fine joint, leave the carcase lying on the
highway. Poultry was vxmfonly . skrughtered in the
farm yards and eaten raw. It is asserted, and
has been proven by an eye witness, that even
the dogs, cats and rate enornatterea on the march of
this horde, Ivens killed and eaten 'with a some/mane:a
that betokened starvation. Indeed they had no
comniissary, and it is believed their conduct
was attribntal to directions from their officers."
Max Is anomie mon= of the manner in
which the ladies of the south conduct them
selves towards the dead and the living who were
and are engaged as soldiers in defihlce of the
Union. We quote from the Newbern &andard:
As the grave of Sergeant Poppe, who died
from wounds received in defending so heroically
the old flag, was being prepared in the church
yard, a well dressed lady 0) walked up in com
pany with two others, and remarked that "they
were not digging it deep enough." "Not deep
enough I" exclaimed the sexton. "No, not
deep enough," ehe replied, "dig it deeper, so
that he can go to hell the quicker," and then
she walked off.
The armor or as 002MORIPMEON BILL by the
illegitimate Jeff Davis dynasty has been such as
to convert Many persons to Unionism, and to
drive all who could get away, into the land of
freedom, A large number have escaped frOm
Tennessee within the paat few weeks, and that
was the principal reason of the exodus of the
six refugees. The bill Has caused wide and
general dissatisfaction, and as one of the latest
acts of tyranny and oppression will alienate
many who would otherwise have remained
faithful, from the so•oalled Confederacy.

The tug Dragon from the James river this

yesterday, to avoid the press gang under the

In view of the important information they
bring it would not be proper to make their
names public, having been brought to Com-
Goldsborough.
They were Luteiediately sent to Gen. Wool,
and will leave this morning for Gen. MTlel
lan's headquarters for whom they have some
information which they -have not yet made
public.
They represent the condition of affairs at
Petersburg and the surrounding country as of a
most deplorable character and the sufferings of
the people almost beyond endurance. The
scarcity of provisions is so great that every-
thing was seized for the army and even the
soldiers have been on half rations for a week
past with no prospect even of this supply con:-
tinning for any greatlength of time.
The rebel army, orost least a-great portion
of it, they represent, 'being demoralized and
dispirited to such an extent that it Is only held
together by the most rigorous appliance of mili
tary law, still the work of conscription was pro
gressing, and the roads to Richmond were
with unarmed men, old and young, being
driven along under a strong guard of armed
men.
They represent that no people in modern
times have suffered more than the people of
Virginia are now suffering, every household
being in mourning with the prospect of an
approaching famine.
They also state that ° Beauregard arrived at
Richmond on Tuesday.
On being questioned as to their authority for
this statement, they said that it was so an
nounced and understood at 'Petersburg on
Wednesday morning, and no one doubted the
fact.
Jeff. Davis and the military authorities had
declared their intention to fight to the death
before Richmond, but strong suspicions were
entertained that it was really the purpose to
abandon the city after a short defence of the
works surrounding it.
Large numbers of women and children from
Richmond bad arrived at Petersburg, and they
represented the distress in that city as beyond
description.
Threats were made by the soldiers from the
Gulf States that they will only leave Rich
mond in ashes, and great fears are entertained
that the thre at would be carried into effect.
It would produce the greatest efforts on the
part of the citizens to prevent such a catastro
phe.
The number of rebel forces at Richmond and
vicinity was generally believed to be folly two
hundred thousand, including the unarmed and
poorly troops of recent levies, who were having
pikes put in their hands for active service.
Deserters report that the infantry force in
the vicinity for that work is. nearly thirty
thousand.

A conflict between the military and civil au
thorities took place last night, growing out of
the fact as is generally represented, - that a squad
of soldiers went to the jail for the purpose of
effecting the release of a colored wctruan alleged
to be under military protection, ,1 who had
been sent thither by virtue of a , 1.4i0n of the
commissioners under the fugitive clove law.
The jailor, Mr. Milburn, and Deputy Mar
shal Phillips refused to deliver to them the
woman without an order from Marshal Lemon.
The consequence was the military made them
prisoners, together with the counsel for the
claimant of the woman, and lodged them in
the Central guard house and removed the
woman to another part of the city.
At a subsequent period the Marshal himself
accompanied by the Superintendent of Polls
Webb and one of his sergeants repaired to the
jail and in turn captured and made the two
Military guards prieoners.
The matter thus rested till in early hour
this morning when all the parties were release('
escaping Deputy Quartermaster Phillips and
jailor Milburn. They too will doubtless in
the course of the day be set at liberty.

Mr. SBESTIID (R. I.) agreed that the first bill
was in effect a bill of attainder, and it took the
property without process of law. The second
bill was kir the emancipation of slaves: This
was in violation of the solemn pledges made in

tutions of the States. This breach of faith can
not be justified on the ground of necessity, for
the stringent necessities of the war were upon
the country when we made that pledge. The
