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 five
hundred 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 praetically de=
Glared his disregard of all that aimed at the defence of our homes and
the preservation of our liberties.

Freemen of Dauphin county 1 Soldiers! who marched at the first
call of danger to the defence of the capital of your count r y, and'
who still rest upon your arms night and day around the limits'
of that capital, are you ready to vote for a man who so lightly es.:
timated the honor of your country and the lives of its defenders? Dr.
Heck is one of the old Breckenridge Democrats who sympathized'
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 refnsing to make an appropriatidn to arm
the great state of Pennsylvania to aid their overthrow and its
suppression.. This man is again before you, and again solicits
yourvote 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 embarrassing the future efforts of our noble old com
monwealth in assisting to redeem the land from rebellion by enforc
ing the laws and vindicating the federal authority. No patriot, no
brave, loyal lover of his country can vote for Dr. Heck.
Freemen, remember that this is the reoord of Dr. Heck whilst he was In the Le
gislature. Let us now examine his action at a later period.
On the 7th day of August, 1862, the Democratic County Convention met at the
Court House, in this city, for 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 copy the following from the Pattht and Union
of August 8, 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.
cg The reading of the resolutions was called for, and after reading of which they
were adopted amid applause."
The resolutions and nominations of that Convention have thus been fairly and
openly approved 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 advocated in this State.
The candidates nominated by that convention are also the avowed enemies of the
country. Isaac. Slenker and James P. Barr, for Auditor and Surveyor General, are
both on the record as the abettors of rebellion. Slenker seconded the efforts of
Buo l aanan to steal or purchase Cuba—and he was also in favor and would now es
tablish, if he had the power, the slave trade in every port of the Union. Barr is
l'xnown to have so far defended treason as to have incurred the wrath and run the den-
ger of a halter at Pittsburg.
Such is the record and such the company in which we find Dr. Heck
Second, We diselover him in a Convention called to endorse the proceedings o
those who openly oppose the Ilational Government.

FRANK HUGHES' TREASON UNVEILED
I , 4:tv: 4 4:vooN`TV:lcNv:Voi , J7.E.jrnie , rwcva*l
On Tuesday afternoon we printed, from the
.llfmer' 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 sus
tained by the testimony of two of the most re
'spectable and loyal men in that region, David
Lomison, whose reputation for veracity andin
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
sylvinia seeede from the Union, and join herself
with the south; and leave Rhode Island, and'
Cennecticut, 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 French' 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
thetiominion•of Rebeldom under the auspices
Jaitallserle. • Yet this fa the anther of the,
ad - diessOrifiiiirliamboratie 'Mae 00iiithlit4 3
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 :
"Resolved, 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
souices ; and that her glory and paramount in
terests are identified with the continuance of
that Union.
"Should, however, causes hitherto resisted
by the Democracy of-the country rend Rosen
der the bonds that bind together these StAtes,
and should the fifteen slaveholding States,
claiming to be driven by the necessity of mu
tual protection against' the effect of such causes,
successfully establish another confederacy, then
Pennsylvania must regard her relation to the
facts which circumstances beyond our control
have produced.
lEEE
"She cannot then refuse to perceive that she
must either take her place fn some northern
fragment of a once glorious Union, and rest
content b . , 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 northeastarn States, with no
outlet or approach from the ocean for her great
eastern or her great western metropolis, except
through the waters and before the forts and
guns of a foreign nation, and thus practically
(for the want of ability to protect) be made to
yield up all reliable direct foreign trade.
"Or she may, it a member of the new con
federacy, become the great manufacturing
workshop for a people now consuming annual
ly $800,000,000 worth of products and mann-
Manua from and imported through the north
ern States ; her cities become the great com
mercial depots and distributing points , for this
confederacy, 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 between
the lawful alternatives. 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 disanionists in
their midst succeed in defeating an equitable
compromise of existing difficulties! "
(Signed) FRANCIS W. HUGHES.
This man Hughes is at the head of the fat
ton in this State . .who are seeking to bind hon
est DeMocrits hand and foot, and hand them
over to the worshippers of the Ebony Idol, who
began this war against the Union, and of whom
I Henry Clay, in a letter written July 1, 1844,
said, "from developments sow (then) BEM
lUDS in South Carolina, it is perfectly manifest
that a party exists in that State seeking a dismiss•
lion of= the Union." Is it not plain that the trai
tor Hughes still loves that party and his native
State, where it was first organized, before and
above either the Union or the principles of
Democracy as taught by Jefferson and practi
sed by Jackson? And yet, neither he nor his
organ in this city hew a word to say in condem
nation of that party, the real authors of the
war, whose existence and aims were seen and
prophetically stated by the patriotic Clay twen
ty years ago. Will the honest Democrats of

Respect to our Russian 'Minister.
A letter from St. Petersburg, dated Septem
ber Bth, • gives an interesting account of the
marked attention bestowed upon Gen. Came
ron, our Minister to Russia, from which we ex
tract what follows :
The American who comes to Europe, strikes
the bitter brittend of hostility.ortreaching En
gland, in France he ends, at best, a courteous
indifference; in Germany a mild, phlegmatic
sympathy ; but here, a genial warmth of feel
ing, such as one nation rarely exhibits towards
another. Russia, by the manifestation of this
feeling, has already done us good service, and
we should not forget it when our days of trial
are over. Gen. Cameron, lam glad to learn,
both knows how to value and to reciprocate
this service, in every way consistent with his
position. He has been treated with marked
attention, both here and at the imperial pala
ces of Trairsko-Selo and Peterhoff. At the lat
ter place, the immense systems of fountains
and artificial cataracts, which are only set in
motion by the command of lie Emperor, were
specially made to perform on the occasion of
his visit. His family were conveyed through
the parks and gardens in court equippages, and
afterwards sumptuously entertained at the pi
lace. These unusual courtesies, exhibited ate a
time when the press of England was howling
for intervention, and that of France, more cau
tiously, following in the same track, have—as
they were meant to have—a welcome signifi
cance.
The Court has been absent from St. Peteis
burg the greater part of the summer. The
Emperor has just returned from a week's visit
to Moscow, which is still more truly the Rus
sian capital than this city. Gen. Cameron left
and returned on the same day as his Majesty,
profiting by the occasion to make acquaintance
with that portion of the empire: In addition to
his family, Bayard Taylor, Secretary of Lega
tion, and Mr. Josiah Pierce, Jr., formerly Se
cretary, accompanied him. In Moscow, the
superb palace on the Kremlin, the imperial
treasury, and every other place of interest, were
at once thrown open to the General and party.
I understand that two or three prominent
Russian noblemen, having anticipated his visit
at an earlier period, bad made arrangements to
charter a steamer and take him to visit their
estates on the Volga. It is to be regretted that
he was not able to be absent from his post for
the time which such a jt urney would require.
At the Foundling Hospital the party was re
ceived by the governor and directors in person,
and conducted through the vast building in
which Russia annually receives and cares for
fifteen thousand of her neglected children.—
This institution is probably the grandest char
ity in the world. Twelve hundred nurses are
constantly employed, and whole villages are
supported by the fees paid to foster parents.

The Rebel Army in Virginia.
FAERVAE COURT House, Oct. 7
A deserter from the rebel army, brought in
last evening, makes some highly interesting
statements, which are important if true. He
belonged to the Second Virginia cavalry, of
Gen. Mumford's brigade and General Stuart's
division. The following are his statements :
Mumford's brigade, of from nine hundred to
ten hundred cavalry, is between Warrenton
and the Springs. The force at Culpepper Court
House, now commanded by General Jo. John
ston, consists of three divisions, one of them
commanded by, General Gustavus W. Smith,
another by Gen. Horton ; the name of the other
division commander he did not know. He
heard General Mumford say that Johnston had
been ordered to take command of the Depart
ment of the West ; Gen. Bragg having been re
lieved. There was much complaint against
Gen. Bragg. He saw a young man from Bich
aloud, who told him that the rebels had aline
force at Gordonsville.
He was with the rebels in Maryland, and
heard officers say that their loss at the battle
of Antietam was sixteen thousand killed and
wounded and four thousand prisoners. The
rebels say they obtained eight hundred cavalry
and two thoneand infantry recruits in Mary
land, about six hundred of whom were from
Pennsylvania.
The force tinder Lee at Winchester, he says,
numbers one hundred and eighty thousand
men, and is being reinforced. This is consid
ered here a large over estimate. The old
regi
ments are being filled up with conscripts.
He was in the battles at Bull Bun, and says
that the rebels universally admit that they
ware whipped on Friday
by General Sigel.
A prisoner from the Forty-ninth Virginia,
commanded by Colonel (formerly Hon.) Wm.
Smith, was brought in yesterday. He was
home on sick leave when taken, and gives no
information.

FROM ARKANSAS.
Intelliienoe from the Rebel Foram
Their Location and Nanalbers.
Correspondence of the Missouri Republican.
We have late and very reliable iatelligenoe
from the rebel forces in this State, which are
regarded by military men here as worthy of
confidence.
It is as late as the 18th and 22d ult., and se
riously modifies many reports we have heard,
some of which have reached the country.
According to this information, the rebel
forces in Arkansas number and are encamped
as follows :
Gen. Hindman '
at Austin, 25 miles north of
Little Rock, with five thousand men and one
battery.
General Roan at White Sulphur Springs, near
Pine Skiff, on - the Arkeinsas river, fifty 'piles
south-east of Little Rock, with five thousand
men, two regiments of whom are conscripts,
one unarmed; also a Texan regiment and one
battery consisting of three six , pounders iron,
and one two pounder brass and one siege plea;
mounted.
General Mcßea, on the Arkansasiiiver, thirty
mile; north west of Napoleon.
General Baios,at Grose Hollow, with a repor
ted force of from four to five thousand, mostly
conscripts.
Gen. Holmes is commander-in-chief of all the
forces at Little Bock, with about two thousand
men and ten batteries, one of ten and three
B.ponnders ,and the other of two rifled 13.pound
els, and two pound howitzers.
Gen. M'Bride at Batesville, with about two
thousand men. Only one hundred and fifty of
them are effective. Most of their cavalry force
have been dismounted.
At present it is not believed they have more
than two thousand cavalry in the State.
At Arkadelphia, eighty or one hundred miles
south west of Little Rock, they manufacture
munitions of war, and have removed there all
the State records and papers.
Though the rebel Generale boast of their in
tention to invade Missouri, it Is not believed by
intelligent men in their camps that they intend
to do so. If they save the Capitol of their State,
it is all they desire at present, and perhaps more
than they expect.
