At a period when the hot shot and bombs were falling thick and
fast around the gallant band who were defending their country's
honor in Fort Sumter, Gov, Curtin had sent into the Legislature
of the State, then in session; a message suggesting the better: or
ganization of the militia, and, asking for an appropriation of f ive
hundre4 thousand dollars to place the state on a war footing. When
the bill proposing. to make this appropriation - came before the
Legislature, Dr. Heck voted against it, and thus practically de
clared his disregard of all that aimed at the defence of our homes and
the preservation of our liberties.
The bill as it passed, can be found in the last year's volume of
the laws of the' state, page 229—and the proceedings attending its
passage in the House, in the journal of 1861, page 957. We ex

Freemen of Dauphin county ! Soldiers!.who marched at the first
call of danger to the defence of the capital of your country, and
who still rest upon your arms night and day around the limits
of that capital, are you ready 10 vote for a man who so 'es
timated the honor of yoar country and the lives of its defenders ? Dr.
Heck is one of , the old Breckenridge Democrats who sympathi'zed
and still sympathize with and confide in the course of the traitor
Breckenridge, and showed his attachment for those who are at the
head of this rebellion. by: refusing to make an appropriation to arm
the great state of Pennsylvania to aid their overthrow and ; its
suppression. This man is again before you, and again solicits
your vote that he may again disgrace , the halls of legislation With
his presence and . his conduct. He desires to be returned that he
may aid in. , embarrassint the future. efforts of our noble old Om
monwealth in assisting to i redeem the land from rebellion by enforc
ing the la's and vindicating tile federal authority. No patriot, , no
brave, loyal lover of his CQUII4 Can vote for Dr. Heck.
Freemen, remember that this is thef record of Dr. Reck whilst he was in the, Le
gislature. La us now examine his action at a later' period.
Ott the 7th day of August; /862, the Democratic County Convention met at the
Oottik Honse, in this city,' or the purpose of nominating a ticket. Dr: LEWIS
HECK was a delegate to that Convention, and assisted in nominating himself as a
candidate for the'Legislature. We ooPy the following from the Patriot and Union
of August. 8 1 1862, viz :
" Dr. HECK moved that the resolutions passed by the Democratic State Conven
tion on; the 4th of July be adopted by this Convention.
" The reading of the resolutims Wm called for, and after reading of which they
were adopted amid applanne."
The resolutions and nominations of that Convention. have thus been fairly and
r r
openly npproved by Dr. HECK, and we give.him all due credit for his action in
having them adopted. 'He stands therefore sqUarely up to the platform which the
friends of the traitor John C. Breckenridge advecated in this State.
The e!Lndidetes nominated by that 4ouvention are , also the avowed enemies of 'the
country. Isaac Slenker and James P. !Barr, for Anditor,and Surveyor General, I are

FRANK HUGHES' TREASON UNVEILED.
TRB HILISTONX STATES TO BB CHAIN® TO SLAVEUT
On Tuesday afternoon we printed, from the
Miner's Journal, of the 27th ult., a startling re
cord. It was clearly shown in that record, over
the signature of one of the ablest members of
the bar in Schuylkill county, that Frank
Hughes, chairman of the Breckenridge State
Central Committee, was tainted with a seces
sion feeling and professed a traitor sympathy,
at once insulting to loyal men and dangerous
to loyal communities. This exposure was , sue
tained by the testimony of two of the most re
spectable and loyal men in that region, David
Lomison, whose reputation for veracity and in
tegrity no one will challenge, and Jerome K.
Boyer, a Douglas Democrat, now a candidate
for the Legislature on the Union ticket in
Schuylkill county. Nevertheless, the revela
tions were so shocking to the loyal heart of our
noble State, that many people were loth to be
lieve it. The first of the charges were that
Hughes was heard to say : "lam a delegate
to the Democratic State Convention at Harris
burg, and I am going over to attend the Con
vention, and when there, I intend offering a
resolution before that Convention, that Penn
sylvania recede from the Union, and join herself
with the south, and leave Rhode Island, and
Ccnnecticnt, and Massachusetts, and them d----d
little petty states, to subsist on their codfish and
Plymouth rock." And that he did offer such
a resolution in committee, General James, of
Warren, a member of the committee, supporting
the allegation, declaring that " Mr. Hughes
came to me in the committee room and asked
me to support his d—d treasonable resolution
After I had read it I got 'so d—d mad that I
shook my fist and swore that if he attempted to
offer that resolution, either in committee or
Convention, that I would pitch him and his
resolution headforemost out of the window."
We now ask attention to the resolution since
openly avowed by Francis W. Hughes himself,
under his own name, as having been prepared
by him to be offered at the Democratic State
Convention referred to. It will be perceived
that it argues in favor of the secession of Penn
sylvania from the Union, and her addition to
the dominion of Rebeldom .under the auspices
of Jeff. Davis. Yet this is the author of the
address of she Democratic State Committee
which we have been asked to believe loyal and
patriotic. It is published in an extra from the
office of the Democratic Standard, at Pottsville,
on Monday morning, September 29th, 1862 :
"Resoled, That Pennsylvania owes ' her
growth in population, and the increase of capi
tal and wealth of her citizens, chiefly to the
advantages which the American Union had af
forded for the development of her natural re
-13011 Wee ; and that her glory and paramount in
terests are identified with the continuance of
Qat Union.
'Should, however, causes hitherto resisted
by the Democracy of the country rend aisun
der the bonds that bind together these Stistes,
and should the fifteen slaveholding
claiming to be driven by the necessity of :mu
tual protection against the effect of ouch causes,
successfully establish another confederacy, then
Pennsylvania trust regard her relation to the
facts which circumstances beyond our control
have produced. .
"She cannot then refuse to perceive that she
must either take her place in some northern
fragment of a once glorious Union, and! rest
content to be shorn of the greater part of her
manufacturing industry, and of her export and
import trade—to hold a secondary and help
less relation to the northeastern Statee, With no
outlet or approach from the ocean for her treat
eastern or her great western metropolis, except
through the waters and before the forts: and
gurus of a foreign nation, and thus practically
(for the want of ability to protect) be male to
yield up all reliable direct foreign trade.
"Or she may, if a member of the new i con
federacy, become the ,great manufaetitring
workshop for a people now consuming annual
ly $800,000,000 worth of products and n4anu
factures from and imported through the nurth
ern States ; her cities become the great com
mercial depots and distributing points for. this
qpnfederacy, and her wealth, population,. and
glory be promoted in a degree unparalleled in
the history and prosperity of any people I
"That it will be the right and duty of her
citizens to consult their own best interests: in a
position so, momentous, and decide bethreen
the lawful altermitives. And that in stating
the truths here announced, .we.have no desire
to conceal that our object is to present to the
people of other States
_the position they may
severally occupy if the coercion disunionista in
their midst succeed in defeating an equitable
compromise of existing •difficulties! "
