Monday Iforning, Jane• 80, 1802.
Tits Evionten EXPRESS, Lancaster, exposes one
of the mean tricks on the part of the Patriot
Which is in the habit of printing e&tracts, pur-i
porting to have been copied from its excitangeti
in various parts of the country, deploring the,
Influx' of negroes in such lodalitits, end setting
forth that the freed slaves thus penetrating the
free states, north, east and west, are daily
coining in competition with white iiibor. The
Patriot recently credited one , of these extracts to.
the. Lancaster Patriot, hut no such a newspaper'
is published in that city, and the only other lo
cality named " Lancaster" is in Ohio, where,
the Express declares, there is no journal with
the title of Patriot published. • These are the
shifts becoming the conductors of the Patriot
and Union. They must lie or fail in their most
insignificant purpose; and nothing so delights
alit entire faction to which the Patriot belongs,
as to belie all prindfprk'Parties or people op
poled to negro slaveit. , „MI people, ctfi Barris
buteitnhe'rtitand fact; and lime neither
the veracity or the valor of those who control
that sheet-ever exceed their par value:: They
started a story in relation to negroes being em
ployed to cut the grass`on the capitol grounds,
and, when the fact was elicited that those ne
gro.' had been employed by , a Democrat, the
Patriot never bad the manliness to retract the
first assertion and state the plain truth.
—We leave this subject, with the people here,
with the reflection that joUrnalists who will re
sort t to the , meanness of concocting falsehood,
and crediting them to mythical newspapers, for
the purpose of deceiving the public, are among
the most contemptible of all liars, because too
cowardly to hither their own lies.
Tim VIGOR AND EIYZOTIVSNINS OH TEN ARK;
we are now led to expect, will be practically
increased, so that victory may follow fighting
in a manner to keep up the spirits of the brave
boys now under arms, and end the war before
the warm weather of the south has been able
to bread its usual series of diseases so fatal to
mOrthern men. We are assured that the visit
of President Lincoln to West Point, and his
hiterview with Gen. Scott, was part of the pro
gramme adopted to ensure speedy results from ,
the. past and present operations of the armies of
the &public. The consolidation of the armies
ifi the Shenandoah valley took place immedi
ately after the return of the Ptesident from
Wet Point; now we are informed that Gen.
Reed, has been summoned to Washington, and
that important changes in other commands will
soon follow, all having in view an immediate
closing of the campaign, by the prompt rednc
tion of the rebel capital and overthrow of the
rebel army. These movements and consolida
tion of armies are no doubt the result of the
deliberation and conviction of the President.
They prove that President Lincoln has Ileter
mined to bring the crisis to an end, by such . a
prosecution of the war as will put it out: cif the
pcirtir of the rebel army to entrench itself in
any, other locatity after it has been defeated and
routed at Richmond.

succeeded in escaping safely, but it was a nay

was only a ruse to docoy the natkinaf party into
capture or death. - Ititronly another illustra

PRESIDENTIAL RADICALISM.
When a man boldly stands up for truth or
justice, and persists in infusing all compromises
with error, he provokes what Is callea by ob
sequioue lips, " the high-toned conservative
sentiment of his age." Many of our dough
face cotemporaries have thus stigmatized the
Telegraph, but surely we have no right to com
plain, when the President himself falls into this
spirit of radicalism, and pushes forward his own
just convictions farbeyond the comprehension of
that "high-toned conservatism," of which we
have all heard so much laudation. Thus when
both Houses of Congress had passed that radi
cal measure, the bill abolishing slavery in the
District of Columbia, great was the anxiety in
all conservative circles lest President Lincoln
should commit the fatal error of approvingthe
bill. Would he thus throw himself into the em
brace of the xadicals? His record was searched,
and for a brief period hope was indulged and
founded on some expression of his, years ago,
that he would Veto the enactment. " Seldom
is suck opportunity offered to man in this life,"
so we were told, "as is now open to President
Lincoln, to make himself an imperishable re
nown by vetoing that abolition measure."
Whatever of odium could be attached to
"abolition" belonged to this bill, which by its
very terms abolished slavery. It bad received
the support of the radical members of both
Houses of Congress, and the fierce opposition
of the conservative Democracy. Here was the
crisis of Mr. Lincoln's Presidential career. By
his action on this, it would be decided .whether
or not he would discardlfrom his counsels the
pestilent Abolitionists, and be governed by the
opinions of prudent, careful, conciliatory advi
sers. With amazing perversity—in utter dis
regard of the short road to immortality and the
ready guides to Out it out—forgetful alike of
the praise on the,one hand and the
.wrathful
censure On the other, of the conservative press,
the President signed the bill and made it a
law. Some gnashing of teeth there was at
such reckless disregard of the feelings of "our
Southern brethren ;" but the act stands, and
there is no slavery, by law, in the District
of Columbia. This was called a triumph of the
radicals, • . ; ;-
More recently the President has let slip an
other opportunity of achieving what the con
servative press would callimmorted renown; but
with "the same "Peedless iiiirOgard of their wise
and Prudent counsels, be tbrew it away as a
tired child casts away the toy of the hour.
A bill quite recitMtly4mated-• both houses of
Congress declaring that there shall be neither
slavery nor involuntary servitude in the terri
tories of the United States. Once more perm=
nial conservatism was ready with her counsels.
Would he but vain THAT! Was it not the off
sPring of radicalism
. gad_any; Democratic
Saribe or conseivative.. Pharisee, in either
branch, voted-foil the measure ? Not one. Here
was - 44 . 0118
.. among the historic im
mortals for, litni**upen -the sede condi
tion that he allonia;, : pronounce tiie imperative
vitro. Obstinate, perverse, reckless of counsel,
forgetful of what was due to venerable stu
pidity, the , president, by his approval, made
the bill a law. ' '
Other offences Mr. Lincoln has committed
which are written down against him in all the
records of venerable Conservatism. He could
have pardoned Gordon, convicted of the piracy
of the African slave trade, and sentenced to be
hung... The mere subscription of the . Presi
dent's name would haVe saved that man's life.
Guilty only of the peccadillo of iMporting
slaves from Africa, two words might have saved:
him from the ignominy of the gallows. A rad
ical President refused to grant a boon so small
to clamorous request. Evidently from these
and other indications, President Lincoln must
be counted in that abused class, the radicals.
HOW DEMOCRATS DIFFER
The men who struggled to elect Breckenridge
President, that the monstrous plane of a Derno
matic conspiracy could be carried to success
without a struggle, now persist in opposing the
war on the plea that its cost will bankrupt the
nation. These old dough-faces go , out of the
way , to show that the North is responsible for
the war. In answer to these pleas,Hon. Joseph
Bailey, an uncompromising Democratic mem
ber of Congress, recently made a moat power
ftf 'sticsoti.:f Ws spOcth, as delfiered in sup
port of the bill for the issuing of additional
treasury not* frbni sthiah we make the follow
ing extracts:
"There is no use in talking about the causes
that may have produced .this. xekellion = aixiut
abolition and the condlict:of eOttiusiaste. We
have the terrible' and tangible - fact staring us
in the face, that a portion of the people of the
United States have arrayed themselves in armed
rebdilion against their country. 'Some of the
States, in violation of the Constitution, have
entered into alliances with each other to destroy
the Government, and commenced this unholy
purpose while still enjoying its patron;
age. After committitig':these monstrous and
treasonable outrages, the self•constituted gov
ernment into which these traitorous states had
entered audaciously declares that all it wants
is to be let. alone. Very , likely. The perpetra
tor of crime alwaya desires that. The wishes
of these bad men cannot be gratified. The
Government of the United States is obliged to
Bee that the laws be faithfully executed, and
cannot consent that rebels against its authority
anywhere shall be let alone.. They are to be
punished; and to do this armed men are re
quired. 't
000000-000
"Talk about cost when the existence of such
a government as this is at stake I The Unlike
of the rights of man throughout the world, we
will, as we ought, incur the curses of mankind
if we stop short, for fear of expense, in our ef
forts to maintain its supremacy. What signify
a thousands/Mons or fice thousand. millions Do m _
pared with the existence of a nation that has produced
such startling results in the history of the world in
the short apace of three quarters of a century? Why
sir, it has conquered a- wilderness overspread
ing rt.Fonthelitt, and peopled it. ; hes pro
duced the raw mated - al With whichlhe - people
oft the , earth:have' clothed themselves. In a
very, short time It will produce food sufficient
to sustain the wants of all mankind. Its mann
,
factures are carried in its own ships to every
port on the earth: It has tamed the lightning
an d ma d e it the inearsiof transmitting thought.
It has made the terrific power of heated vapor
submissive to its will and compelled it to per
form labor equal to • the efforts of millions of
,men... Its educational; institutions excel: in
kunnlx!rand usefuhminthcu of all, other na
tions, and its gallant soldiers and sailors have
never met a foe able to conquer them." ' -' -
These are a few of the great results produced
by a great people under the benign influence of
penneginania Mailp atiegrapty MOntiap Morning, „aunt 30, iSC,2
this greatest and best form of government in a
period much short of a century. Will a people
who love accomplished these great purposes iu
so short a time be alarmed at a debt of $lOOO,-
000,000 incurred in the preservation of their
Government? I think not, when they ascer
tain the share each one will be liable to pay.—
In eight years more we shall have a population
of forty millions and over. Divide $1,000,-
000,000 by this number, and we have the tri
fling sum of twenty-five dollars, for which each
one of the people will be liable, the interest on
which, per year, is $1 50. Double this amount
of indebtedness, and you have the sum of fifty
dollars as the liability of each one, subject to
an annual interest of three dollars—not very
alarming to a great and free people. The ordi
nary revenue has most generally been sufficient
to defray the ordinary oxpendftum of *Gov
ernment heretofore, and we limy' confidently
expect that to be the case hereafter, at least as
soon as we have peace, and trade and business
have resumed their usual channels."
While a democrat of Mr. Bailey's stamp is
thus pledging the milimited resources of the
government, dough•faces of the Patriot ilk are
howling over the same subject, and attempt to
induce the people to withdraw vll their sup
port fromitan administration that is honorably
laboring to remedy the evils produced by a
long series of locofoco misrule.
LETTER FROM GOV. CURTIN.
GINKRAL :11aclosed I send you the list of
names of Clentlemen composing the Executive
Committee of the "Pennsylvania Soldiers Re
lief Association," lately organized in this city,
to any one of whom letters of enquiry may be
addressed, at No. 194 Broadway, by the rela
tives and friends of our Pennbylvania volun
teers—viz :
The arrangements of this organization have
thus far worked admirably for the promotion
of its object, the relief of sick and wounded
Pennsylvanians, in the army of the United
States.
Reliable reports, from careful personal inspec
tion, are made regularly and immediately upon
the arrival of a vessel and the condition of
each individual case accurately stated. Suet as
are able to proceed, are, without delay, for
warded to their homes or to hospitals within
our own state, whilst the presming necessities
of such as require it, are promptly administered
to—their wants relieved, and their sufferings
alleviated through the medical arrangement of
the association. The work, undertaken by this
association, is indeed a benevolent task, a labor
of love, which it id, successfully carrying oat
in all its practical beneficent operitions.
I shall, during the period I may be constrain
ed to remain here, which I think will be very
brief, continue to forward, as heretofore, the
reports of the association, relating to the vol
unteers of our State, that , their publication
within the State may carry reliable informa
tion to their relatives and friends.
With the same view I shall also arrange for
the regular transmission of, the reports to me;
after my return to Barrisburg.
I am very truly yourit Ste.

George F. Train and Ma Bankers.
George Francis Train is out-with a letter in
the London American, on tho position taken by
American :English bankers, in reference to af
fairs in their native country, from which we
extract as follows:
"Ame.rica has a powerful enemy in Europe.
That enemy is her bankers. Who have misled
England on thisguestien 1. The bankers. Who
openly expressed their sympathy with kleCel3Bioer
The hallheill. Who Bear down American secu

and knows which side the bread the - butter is:
placed. Mr. Peabody was badly treated in the;
last panic; a combination of, bankers did their;
best to break him; but he fired too many gene
for them. They were jealous of his success.—
Who are decrying everything American? I
still answer, the international bankers. When
a. nation is in danger, ministers generally seek
information from leading minds connected with
the nation in distress'. On their opinions mea
sures are taken. Our American bankers deli
berately misled the English ministers. Earl
Russell made Rot,hschild a member ,of, Parlia

The bankers sold our people. Talk five min

with the Dennistanns—argue a moment with
J'ohn .Pickersgill —ask Russell, Stnrges, or
Joshua Bates if America is solvent. (Joshua
Bates is American born, but he is now an Alu
glisnman—naturiliFation here denies him °ills
aenship in America—but although English, I
believe him to be a better man than hisisixt
ner, Mr. Sturges, or Mr. Peabody, ouMr. Mor

.delights in the re

the Constitution when she captured the, Otrer

or hold . Tom Barring by the bUtton any time
during the epoch of secession, and your warm
Union sentiments would be shocked by a cotel
bath of hat treason 1 I frankly own that. Mr.
Peabody 'was no colder, for his country` . than
those other bankers who have
,been,,ennehod
by her. Was" not Mr. Morgan, Mr. I s ealxaly's
partner, among the first , to call upon the wife
of the rebel envoy Slidell? Was, not Mr. Ben
