WHO ARE ME FANATICS,
It is fashionable for the dough•face Democ
racy to accuse that class of men who contend
that the abolition of slavery is essential to the
peace and preservation of the Union, as fanatics.
In fact the dough-face Democracy have assailed
all men as fanatical who reject their dogmas or
refuse to accept their theories. In -the present
crisis, however, we have learned a different les
son on this subject of, fanaticism, from any
that has over been inculcated by the politics of
the country. As the rebellion by which the
Gauntry is convulsed and threatened, gathered
strength, we have seen men of all parties give
up their predictions and their prcferencee, sac
rificiog all to a noble purpose of rendering ser
vice to the general cause and thus contributing
to the safety of the Union. We have seen the
Republican trampling on his party organiza
tion, and offering terms of affiliation to the
loyal men of all parties, that the law may be
enforced and the government defended. We
have seen that portion of the Democratic party
who honestly and nobly stood by the lamented
Douglas , ' turn their backs on their organization,
and ,pledge themselves in a union essential for
the safety of the Union. We bear of abolition
ists who ate willing to wait for the promul
gation ofttheir doctrines until the Union is
saved. We, know of emancipationists who
have patience and are ready to trust to events
for the realizationtof their holy ideas, while
for the present they devote themselves to the
rescue of the government from the jaws of re
bellion. But the men who were and are so apt
to accuse others of fanaticism, still cling to
their creeds, ea the Hindoo widow clings to the
corpse of her husband while it is being con
mined on its funeral pyre. The fanatecism of
Democracy is the most fearful that has ever
swept across this land, because it embraces in
astral], treason, rebellion, assassination and
arson. Abolition fanaticism was insignificant
in compariton to that which has been engen
dered by Modern Democracy. This fanaticism
has force, power and influence. That of aboli
tion; so called, never had any other attribute
but fury. It has been impotent for harm
and ineffectual for good. The evil which has
been attributed to it, properly belongs to the
fanaticism. of Democracy; and the terror which
this specimen of fanaticism distills, can be
seen by its effects on the deluded people who
are now swelling the ranks of the rebel army.
Hereafter, the leaders and those who punkt
in clinging to the Democratic organization as
it is now constituted can alone be justly charg
able with fanaticism. They know that they
are not contending for principle—they are
aware of the fact that the maintenance of their
organization is obnoxious to loyal men and ac
tually dangerous to the loyal cause ; yet in the
face of all these !facts they persist in their
course, and defy all counsel or persuasion that
seeks to change their action. If this is not
fanaticism, it is treason; and treason is the worst
crime known to the government, made punish
able by death
Let us hear no more, then, of fanatachirn,
frOm the months of those whose hearts are
Shed with gall and bitterness against the right,
and who do not scruple at any means to advance
their political dogmas or personal schemes.—
Fanalidsm,. hereafter will only be known by
des A fact Democracy.
TRW AWN TWO &zoos of the modern Dem
oast in existence, namely, the dough-face and
the contelidetet The former are thote who ex
ist on the dirt which falls from the patronage
of the slave power, while the latter compose
sebum who make the franchises and extension of
slavery imminently more important than the
great triumph and mighty progress of civiliza
tion. The eanolidated democrat pledges ids
fealty in blood and seals it with an oath. The
tkzph fact swears by the band which smites
him, and covenants for his allegiance to his
Party in the secret of open success with which
be can betray his nation. We leave the inde
pendent, loyal men of Pennsylvania to decide
pthich of these specimens is the most dangerous.
ilAaorao TIOWIS, the organ of the Ma
im& Main - 11:1 in Min* has an SOvla article
proving that rebeliio s n against the government
tresson.W the Order, •
THE COLORED BAcE OF THE UNITED
STATES.
The appointment of S. C. Pomeroy, by the
President, as a commissioner to superintend the
immigration and colonization of the free people
of color, now, residing in the Ilnited States, is
i l one of the events of the age, going to show the
effects of the mighty change which is working
in the society, the politics and the destiny of
the American Republic. It is not only the black
man that is to be effected by this movement,
though the enterprise was designed specially for
his benefit. We believe that it will materially
affect the white race, and ensure its advantage
and benefit, equally as it adds to the improve
ment and elevation of a people long oppressed
and trodden into the dust. We belieue this, bit:
cause whatever contributes to the degradation of
the blacks adds to the degradation of the whites,
and thus in proportion, whatever improves the
one adds something of benefit to the other—
provided they are separated, and kept from all social
contact and business competition.
It is naeless, and it would be unjust to deny
that there are not individual cases among the
negro population of the free states, rising to
distinction in the pursuit of business, proving
: their ability, by amassing fortunes, and so con
ducting themselves as at once to establish their
possession of extraordinary mental and ener
getic faculties. It is to such as these that we
must look for the success of emancipation—
and on such as these, too, depend the improve
ment and elevation of the colored race of the
world. They have the opportunity set before
them, and the promise of the support of a great
government, to encourage them to make a
grand effort, and prove to the world that the
African, though differing in color and oppressed
for long ages, has the will and the power to
establish a government under which he may
be able to develop those high faculties with
which we are taught God blesses all human
beings, and which have made other races com
petent to compete one with the other. If the
proposition is rejected by the leading
gent and respectable colored men of the free
states, on them the responsibility will for
ever rest of retarding the progress and im
provement.of their own race. Such colored
men must and do feel that, whatever their
mental worth and moral merit, there is a chasm
between them and the white man which can
never be filled up or safely crossed. Its creation
is a mystery, and its existence promises to con
tinue for all time. It is the separation of God
made manifest and seemingly justified by a
thousand impulses of repugnance, pride and
conscious superiority engendered by the tri
umphs of the one race, while the other has as
seemingly submitted to oppression without a
blow or au effort at emancipation or redemp
tion. But a great government is preparing to
insure their emancipation, and it will remain
for the colored man to prove whether he has
the ability to contribute to his own redemption.
Those who attempt •to persuade him from ac
cepting these terms of colonisation are not his
true friends. Those who will seek to cast im.
pediments in the way of this noble and humane
experiment, will be contributing to the passi
bility of a contest in the future, in which the
white man may be compelled to treat the ne
gro as he treated the Indian. Therefore, the
true friends of the colored man will persuade
him to accept these offers of colonization. To
accept them as the first sincere and only real
efforts to insure his improvement and happl- 1
ness. To accept them as a grand and perhaps
the last opportunity in this world, to secure the
blessings of social and political liberty, and es
tablish' his power of self-government. The age
admonishes the colored man nit to throw aside
such an offering ; and we will now be able to
judge whether he is true to himself.
VERY QUEER PATRIOTISM.
The Philadelphia Bulktin of last evening says:
—The Harrisburg Patriot and Union publishes .
as its "platform" the resolutions of Congress
in regard to the purposes of the war, but in its
editorial columns it "throws cold water" on
the war by speaking thus of Charles Ingersoll'e
late speech :
"We will publish this truly constitutional
and patriotic address to-morrow, printed by i the
wicked Press as the only complete and acevrate
report yet published. Let our readers judge
whether Patrick Henry's warning to King
George of England was more appropriate than
ours to lesser tyrants."
This very odd Patriot also considers Mr. In
' gersoll "true to his ancestral blood," and inti
mates that he may become almost as fareous
as John Hampden ! If any sane person consid
ers such conduct in accordance with fidelity to
the Union as it is, was or ever shall be, or loy
alty to the Constitution as it has been or as it
stands at present, we should like to know K.
We have met no such person, and should re
quire a certificate of his mirky before believing
le had not escaped from a lunatic asylum.
Gov. Cm ant.—We extract the following
short notice from the Reading daily rernsi, a
paper neutral in politics ; it speaks the senti
ments of every loyal man and does justice to
one who is laboring night and day for the
restoration of this Union :
Ova Goveasoa.—During all the excitement
and trouble entailed upon ns by Secession, but
two men have stood out boldly prominent
Governors of States. The first of these was
Governor Curtin, • and the 'second Goverpor
Sprague. By referring to our late news our
readers will find that through the exertion-) of
Gov. Curtin the draft has been postponed until
the 15th of next month. Until that time re
cruits will be received for regiments now in the
field. There is the Brd Reserves, the 60th, the
48th, the 128th and others, all wanting recruits.
Will not our young men come . forward .In the
true spirit and justify the assertion made by
our model Governor, by enlisting forthwith:
MB Roam Sfornan.--When Pompeii wits
destroyed, there were many persons buried in
the ruins who were afterwards found in differ
ent situations. There were some found in the
street, as if they bad been attempting to make
their escape. There were some found in the
lofty chambers; but .where did they Ind Ow
Roman sentinel ? They found him standingiat
the city gate, with his hand !till grasping Ate
war weapon, where he had been placed by his
captain; and there while the' heavens threat
ened him ; there while the lava stream rolled,
had he stood at his poet, and there, alter!
thousand years hati, pitied away, was he felnil-
erne anid MAW Ciligratg) i'xitiag lftentoon, 2tuguot 29, 1861
So let loyal men stand, while the lava of trea
son boils and heaves around them. Let no
man desert the gates of the Republic. Let no
man move from his loyalty. To live in this
age; and to be the participants in al,struggle for
a government such as ours, will constitute the
greatest glory of the loyal men of the present
generation. Stand fast, then, like the Roman
sentinel, and after years will exhibit the glory
of those who are true to the country in its pret
ent great embarrassment.

Plains, in Pauper County.
THE REBELS COVET IN A TRAP
[From the Witehingtou Star of hit evening.]
It turns out that the cannonading heard near
ly all day yesterday by persons in Fairfax county
was that of an eugagemen between Scanlon's
brigade, of General Cox's division, and a force
of the rebels, considerably outnumbcring them,
at Bull Bun, the contest being for the posees
sion of the railroad bridge at that point. We
believe that the rebels retained possession of It
at nightfall, but , have every , reason to think
Scanlon must have dislodged them from it at
an early hour this morning. Lait night be cer
tainly expected to be able to do so. Our hn
preasion is that his loss throughout the day's
skirmishing was considerable.
The Main engagement of yesterday, however,
was that of Booker's division, with a consider
able rebel force, at Bristow Station.
It appears that the movement of ,the enemy
on Friday; from the south bank of the Rappa
hannock via Jeffersonion, in 'this direction of
Little Washington, was actually designed to
throw the most of the rebel inlay across the
Rappahannock, at the base of the Blue Ridge.
This was done, and it is this morning ascertain
ed here that it 'was yesterday morning, proba
bly, for the most part, massed at or near White
Plates, in the valley, between the Blue Ridge
and Bull Run ranges, seven or aide miles norp
east of Warrenton.
At an early hour yeiterday morning 'Wok
er's division—doubtless despatched to that
point by General Pope on account of the affair'
there of the night before—came up with a large
rebel force about Bristow Station, with whom
he had a heavy engagement, lasting nearly all
day. In the course of it, Hooker drove the
enemy, step by atep, back to the vicinity of
Manassas Junction. Oar total Ices in killed,
wound and miming, in the day's engagement
there, was aboutEhreehundred. General Pope
is said to regard the affair as a 'signal Union
success.
It is evident from these facts that the late
skirmish on the Rappahannock were little more
than feints on the part of the rebels, who aimed
to get in between Pope's army and the fortifi
cations around Washington. We opine that
having done so in a measure they will have
rather a lively time in getting out of the peal
don they have thus cheatr.
It is not proper for us to publish any facts
concerning the movements of the vast Union
army now in the enemy's rear, already made,
to punish his temerity. We, however, know
them be such as iecline us to believe that a
very few days will see the' nd of rebels in arms
in Virginia.
We may add, not impreperly, we trust, that
not only are the fortifications around this city
so garrisoned, equipped, and prepared as: to
enable them successfully to withstand any ,at
tack that such an army as that of the rebels
might make upon them, but that there is, ahfo,
a large reserved force of disciplined veteran
troops in such a position, with reference to
them, as to make the &immure of their securi
ty doubly sure, even without the certain 'co
operation of the large Union force lately upon
the Rappahannock.
From the facts concerning the movements
and positions of the rebels we narrate above, it
is evident that their purpose is either to put
Ball Run between themselves and Pope's army,
and while essaying to prevent (with a compare
tively small force) the latter from crossing it,
to assail us in and about our fortifications;; or
else to attempt to cross over into Maryland,
marching via Leesburg. Twenty-four hours,
at furthest, will surely solve this problem of
their present. aims. It matters not which
scheme the rebels have in view ; as either must
inevitable fall, metes it will be by our two
united great armies, and the troops in the forti
fications immediately surrounding this city.

- We hear that the postmaster at Fairfax C. urt
House arrived here at an early hour this morn
ing, having packed up his goods and mail, and
left last evening, in apprehension of a Confed
erate raid upon that part. He saw a bright
light in that direction after he left, and thinks
some buildings bad been fired there.
No confirmation of such apprehensions have
been received here up to the time of going to
press with the second edition of the Star, nor
of the report afloat of a battle at Centreville,
though the fact of some skirmishing there is
not improbable. '

FORT LIAVINWORTH, Aug. 27, 2862.
Hon. Edwin N. Stanton, Bieridary . of War :
Major Champion Vaughn, of General Blunt's
staff, has arrived at these headquarters with
dispatches.
Gen. Blunt marched with 1,600 men, from
Fort zcott, August 17, and followed the rebels
as far north as Lone Jack,
The enemy declined an engagement, and
commenced a retreat. They were hotly pur
sued by Gen. Blunt, and driven in utter con
fusion across the Osage, with the loss of all
their transportation and tquipments, besides
numerous arms, prisoners, etc.
It is considered that the expedition has saved
the Missouri towns and the Western border
from devaatatien, besides striking terror into
the hearts of the enemy as far as the Arkansas
line.
Gen. Blunt's column returned to Fort Scott
on the 22d, having marched nearly 800 miles
in six days.
Col. Cloud was left to continue the pursuit,
and it is not improbable that the main force of
the rebels will be compelled to surrender. #
