Voters of the 14th Congressional
District !
Beware of Libelous Ilandißills !
THE ENEMY AT WORK.
We understand that this Congressional
District is to be flooded with libelous hand
bills against JOHN J. PATTERSON, the Union
candidate for Congress.
We therefore caution every true friend of his
country to beware of any and all hand-bills
placed in his or their hands by sympathizers
with the toriea of the present age.
BOUND OVER FOR LIBEL,
Since the above was written we learn that
THEOPHILIIS FENN was bound over on a
charge of being the author and publisher of one
of the libels circulated against John J. Patter
son. At the request of Mr. Patterson we cau•
tion persons not to circulate any of the bills in
question, us he will most certainly prosecute
every one that either circulates or publishes the
same. By the laws of the land the circulator of
any libel is equally guilty with the writer or
publisher, and innocent persona may thus save
themselves trouble. Let the courts decide the
matter.
DECIDEDLY COOL
In the absence of Mr. Bergner, the following
note was received by the business clerk in the
TBLEORAPH office, and as a curiosity we give it
a place in our columns :
HABRisstrito, Oct. 7, 1862
But : Please insert the enclosed handbill in
this Pm/ay/yank Telegraph, with my name at
tached thereto. I think this is due me, as the
first publisher of the paper, to the Republican
party, to the public and to justice.
Respectfully yours, &c.,
THEO. FENN.
GEORGE BERGNER, Etq.
The "handbill" to which Theo. Fenn refers,
is a villainous and most outrageous libel on a
patriotic and distinguished gentleman, Colonel
John J. Patterson, for the writing and circula
tion of which this same Theo. Fenn has been
prosecuted on a suit of libel. In the face of
this prosecution And with a knowledge of the
fact that an insertion of that document would
render Mr. Bergner liable to a similar prosecu
tion, Mr. Fenn cooly asks for its publication in
the TELEGRAPH. Has passion, disappointment,
and spite entirely bereft him of reason, or is our
quondam triend in his dotage ? Who knows ?
So far as the issue between Mr. Fenn, in his
private business, and Mr. Patterson, is concern
ed, it is not likely that the people will go out
of the way to examine. Mr. Fenn alleges
that Mr. Patterson is not able to pay his honest
debts. This is unfortunate ; but if it is a crime,
as Theophilus seeks to make it, we ask him in
all candor how far he himself is relieved from
the same conoemoation. We ask him how he
can slumber, and feel that the creditor has his
duet This whole business of Theophilus Fenn
is dirty, mean and contemptible. He has a
right to get his own, but he has no right to
seek to draw a respectable newspaper into his
own libelous attacks on a decent man. He
hes a right to get his own, but he has no right
to make a party the collector of his dues. He
has aright to quote the Docket, but he should
beware how the same authority is quoted
against himself. With these allusions, we de
cline the use of our columns to Mr. Fenn.
While the conductor of the TELEGRAPH, Mr.
Fenn was esteemed in this community as a man
of reasonable wisdom and understanding—of
pure and licitly patriotism —of enterprise—
and of more than ordinary attachment to party.
In this latter sentiment, he has been of all men
most extreme—denouncing violently any man
professing attachment to the party principles
he so ably advocated—who deviated one iota
from his party nominations ! Who is it in this
community who does not know this to be a
fact ? No one. Now, with what sort of con
sistency can Mr. Fenn appeal to the voters of
the Republican party of this Congressional dis
trict to vote against their regular nominee for
Congress? Such advice, from such a source,
is worthy only of supreme contempt, and so all
Intelligent men will regard it. What has Mr.
Fenn's or any other man's grievances to do
with the patriot's duty to his country ? In vo
ting for a Congressman, we vote for a power;
we vote to represent a principle ; we vote to
sustain the government in its defence of the
country in this life and death struggle ; or we
vote to cripple and embarrass the government
in its effort to save our national life. The man
of the Republican party who votes as Fenn de
sires, votes against his country, and is little
better than a traitor ; and thus Fenn has writ
ten himself down an ass.
VOTERS AND TAX PAYERS READ !
It is stated that the receipts from the customs
in New York have increased so much as now
to constitute an important aid to the Treasury
in prosecuting the war. The New York Herald
says that last year the largest sum received in
any month was $2,600,000; but this year the
monthly receipts have generally exceeded
$4,000,000, and in July amounted to $7,200,000,
the lightest month being January, when the
receipts were $3,350,000. The new tariff does
not appear to have affected the receipts, as was
anticipated by the free traders abroad; and es
pecially it is remarked that tea, coffee and sugar
are consumed as largely as ever, while they are
paying handsome duties.
When this tariff became a law, the men who
are now growling about the injustice and inhu.
manity of the war to crush rebellion, were
among the bitterest of its opponents. They
were the men who advocated and defended
slave labor—the men who declared the rights
of the states as superior to the will and the rule
of the general government—and of course the
men who fostered and encouraged the spirit
which has broken out in rebellion against the
preferences and the decision of a constitutional
majority of the freemen of the land. Why
the tariff which is now in operation was before
the House, the plots and plans of the rebels
were being essayed and matured. The question
of a tariff either for revenue to support the
government, or for protection to free labor,
was hooted and derided by the dough-faces,
then and now the friends and allies of traitors,
because as was then calculated, if such protec
tion could be withheld, it would bankrupt bu
siness and labor, and leave the government en
tirely without resources.
THE AUDACITY OF THE TORY ORGAN.
WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE YOH THE BURDENS, THE
LOSSES AND THE SUPFEBING GROWINO OUT OF
THIS REBELLIOUS WAR ?
The tory organ, in the glory of its vocation
of slander and treason, asks why the TELEGRAPH
does not reply to it with fact and argument.
This is cool,and considering the brusque changes
of October, from the sweltering warmth of August
and September, we may be expected to receive
the interrogation equally as cool ; but the idea
of answering the tory organ with argu
ment, would be equal to casting pearl before
swine. And then again to attempt to follow
the tory organ, and explode all its falsehoods,
might involve us in filth, from contact with
which our better nature has always restrained
us. They who touch pitch are defiled. So those
who might be induced to meddle with the fig
ures of the tory organ, would become bewilder
ed in a maze or a labyrinth jfrom which neither
reason or honest argument could deliver them.
But when the tory organ asks for facts, we can
accommodate it to its rotten heart's content.
It is a fact, spread out broad and clear upon
the political history of this government, that
the leaders of the Democratic party are respon
sible for all the losses, all the bloodshed, all
the panic to labor, and all the burdens to socie
ty inflicted by this most causeless, barbarous,
villainous and bloody rebellion.
It is a fact that the leaders of the Democratic
party first suggested the right of the minority
to resist the decision of the majority. By this
means, the spirit of slavery caught its first in
centive to domineer and dictate to the nation
al government, until six millions of white
men, supported and sustained on the labor of
four millions of slaves, have been able to main
tain the most stupendous rebellion that was ever
organized against legitimate and rightful au
thority.
It is a fact, that In every stage of this rebel
lion, the present source of all our troubles, the
despoiler of northern homes, the ravager of
southern fields, the desolator of entire common
wealths—in all the stages tending to the organ
ization of this rebellion, the acts, the plots, the
defences and the enconrgement of the Demo
oratic leaders have alone been apparent. It was
the work of Democratic caucuses in Congress,
the labor of Democratic demagogues before the
people, and the efforts of Democratic presses,
for the last thirty years, to prepare for the pre
cipitation of this identical rebellion. While the
people of the loyal states were peacefully en
gaged in labor and production, the Democratic
leaders of the same states were in secret coun
cil and active co-operation with the leaders of
the south, preparing for rebellion.
It is a fact that in Congress the Democratic
leaders constantly played into the hands of the
slave power. This was done purposely, to
strengthen that power for the blows which it is
now hurling at tto National Government.
It is a fact that under the Administration of
James Buchanan, "the last of the Democratic
Presidents," more property was stolen, more
real estate belonging to the Government seized,
more money squandered, more crimes commit
ted, than attended all the initial movements of
the rebellion. Every Democrat of any wsition
or influence connected with that administration,
knew that the end of Buchanan's term was fixed
for armed resistance to the Government. It
was discussed in Cabinet meetings, and James
Buchanan did not have the courage, the honesty
or the patriotism to arrest the crime. Therebel
lion thus became a policy with a Democratic Adminis
tration I
Take the social history of the slave states,
and the evidence will be found abundant to
prove that the slave owners and breeders have
for years been preparing for this rebellion. They
engendered a hatred for the people of the free
states, which the treasonable politicians in those
states encouraged until every man who was
honestly opposed to slavery became a subject
for the abuse of northern dough-face Demoorats.
Take the political history of the free states,
and the proof will be found on every page to
convict the leaders of the Democratic party
of complicity in the rebellion. Northern
Democratic leaders became the tools of the
slave oligarchy. A northern Democratic Presi
dent winked at the last monstrous acts of the
traitors, before their bloody hands wervraised
to outrage the government. Northern Demo
cratic journalists discouraged all attempts to
force obedience on the rebels. Northern Demo
cratic leaders openly declared that the Presi
dent had no power to coerce a state, and thus
from one crime to another, from encouraging
traitors in their first acts, from repudiating
authority, and then doubting the ability of
Constitutional power to enforce its authority—
from theft and falsehood to present bloodshed
and devastation, the leaders of the Democratic
party have been plunging into excess after
excess, until they have the audacity to claim
that the treason to which they gave force and
fury, is alone the work of loyal men, the re
sult of the efforts of the friends of freedom to
keep the government pure in its purposes, and
thus preserve the liberties and the rights of the
people inviolate.
It does not require argument to impress these
facts on the people. History has presented
them written in the blood of heroes and the
tears of widows. And amid all this ruin which
the leaders of the Democratic party have crea
ted—amid the struggle for liberty which they
have made necessary by their efforts to destroy
its last vestige—amid the great uprising which
they have aroused, and while men are nobly
dying that the government might survive and
flourish, these same leaders are still struggling
for treason, still lying for party, and still labor
ing for the disgrace and.dotruction of the gov
ernment.
Lot the people ponder these facto as the elec
tion aproachal.

POLITICS IN THE EMPIRE STATE.
A COLUMN OF TRUTH IN COMPARISON WITH A
The Breckinridge tory organ, with the run
ners and whippers in that hang around that
establishment, have been engaged for weeks in
circulating a speech delivered by Horatio Sey
mour, the Breckenridge cannidate for Governor
of New York. That speech teems throughout
all its sentences and paragraphs with the vilest
attacks a man could make on his government,
without assailing it with arms in his hands. In
'comparison with the treasonable language of
Horatio Seymour, we now submit the language
of a patriot and a loyal man, James S. Wads
worth, the Union Republican candidate for
Governor of New York. We make no further
comment on this letter of acceptance ; let the
people of Dauphin county read and compare
the sentiments of the two candidates for Gov
ernor of New York : .
WARRENTON, Oct. 2, 1862.
Ron. Benry I. Raymond, President, sre. :
DEAR Sia : I have the pleasure to acknowl
edge the receipt of your letter of September 29,
informing me that the Convention held at Sy
racuse on the 24th of that month, composed of
men resolved to maintain the integrity of the
Union, irrespective of their previous party as
sociations, had done me the honor of placing
my name before the electors of the State of New
York for the office of Governor.
I respectfully accept the nomination.
I cordially agree with the Convention in the
sentiments expressed in their resolutions, and,
if elected, I shall zealously labor to carry out
their wishes as therein defined.
I might, perhaps, with propriety, stop here,
but as the duties of my present position will
not allow me to return to New York for some
time, and possibly not until after the election
has been held, I ask your indulgence while I
express briefly my views as to the questions in
volved in the canvass. -
I think I cannot be mistaken in assuming
that the election will turn upon the necessity of
sustaining the National Government in its ef
fortS to uphold itself, and maintain its territo
rial integrity, and especially upon the procla
mation of the President, issued to that end, and
referred to in the fourth resolution of the Con
vention.
I entirely approve of that Proclamation, and
commend it to the supptort of the 'elactors of
New York, for the following reasons :
1. It is an effectual aid to the speedy and
complete suppression of the rebellion.
Six or eight millions of whites, having had
time to organize their government, and arm
their troops, fed and supported by the labor of
four millions of slaves, present the most formi
dable rebellion recorded in history.
Strike from this rebellion the support which
it derives from the unrequited toil of these
slaves, and 105 foundation will be undermined.
2. It is the most humane method of putting
down the rebellion, the history of which has
clearly proved that the feats of slave insurrec
tions and massacres are entirely unfounded.
While the slaves earnestly desire freedom, they
have shown no disposition to injure their mas
ters they will cease to work for them with
out wages, but they will form, throughout the
Southern States, the most peaceful and docile
peasantry on the face of the earth.
The Slave•owners once compelled to labor for
their own support, the war must cease, and its
appalling carnage come to an end.
3. The emancipation once effected, the North
ern States would be forever relieved, as it is
right that they should be, from the fears of a
great influx of African laborers, disturbing the
relations of those Northern industrial classes
who are so freely giving their lives to the sup
port of the Government.
This done, and the whole African population
will drift to the South, where it will find a
congenial climate and vast tracts of land never
yet cultivated.
I forbear to enter into the nonstop of the
great increase of trade to the Northern States
and the whole commercial world, which would
result from the wants of tour millions of free
and paid laborers over the same number held
as heretofore in Slavery. •
I forbear also to enter into the question of
the ultimate vast increase in the production of
the great Southern staples. This is not a time
to consider questions of profit. It will long be
remembered, to the great honor of the mer
chants, bankers, and manufacturers of the
North, that giving the lie to the calumnies of
slave-breeding aristocrats, who charge them
with being degraded and controlled by the pet
ty profits of traffic, they have met the numer
ous sacrifices of this great struggle with a
cheerfulness and promptness of which history
furnishes no parallel.
Nor is the
. question now before us one of
philanthropy alone, sacred as are the principles
therein involved ;. nor, is it a question of ab
stract ideas, involving an unprofitable discus
sion of the equality of races. It is simply, a
question of war, of national life or death, and
of the mode in -which we can most surely and
effectually tiphold our Government . and main
tain its unity and supremacy.
our foreign enemies, for it is not to be dis
guised that we have such, reproach us with
waging a territorial war. So we do, but that
territory is our country. For maintaining its
greatness - and power-among the nations of the
earth, by holding it together, they hate us.—
We can bear that ; but if we were to'yield to
their suggestions, and submit to its dismember
ment, they would forever despise us.
This great domain, from the Lakes to the
Gulf, from the Atlantic td the Pacific, one
country ; governed by one idea—freedom—is
yet destined to dictate terms, if need be, to the
world in arms, and I hold that man to be a
traitor and a coward, who, under any defeats,
any pressure of adversity however great, any
calamities, however dire, would give up one
acre of it.
It is more than a year since I left our State.
Great changes have taken place within that
period. Costly victories and disastrous defeats
have, in the vicissitudes of war befallen our arias.
Bereavements and destitution have overtaken
many families.
I can only judge of the spirit of my fellow
citizens of New York, by that of her gallant
sons who have rushed to the field. These I
have seen in great numbers, and particularly
those who have been within my command.
Among those brave men, feeblivand exhaus
ted by disease, tortured and mutilated by cruel
wounds, I have never yet heard the first word
of despair, the first sigh of regret, that they
had given health and life to their country.
If we may judge of the spirit of those they
have left at home, and who may yet be called
to the field, by the heroic temper of these MOD,
we have nothing to fear as to the result.
In the solemn verdict of the ballot, and the
deadly conflict of battle, this Government of
the people will be sustained.
I beg that you will .accept for yourself, and
convey to the membi3rs of the Convention over
which you preside, my sincere thank for the
great honor which they did me in placing my
name before the electors of New York, for a
position so responsible and distingtdidied as tha
of Governor of the State.
I am, Sir, with great respect, truly yours,
