TEE RESULT OF LAST lUESDAY.
We are yet unable to give the definite result
of the election held on Tuesday last. No one
seems to have kept a particular tally of the
vote for state officers, particularly in the dis
tricts where several candidates were in the field.
Several members of Congress may have been
elected in opposition to regular nominated Re
publican candidates, but these men are elected
on the broad platform of supporting the Ad
ministration in all its war measure:. Joel
Bailey, in the Cumberland district, was clearly
elected by the Republicans, and on the platform
of supporting the Administration which he has
done heretofore. It is impossible for any man
to prepare an accurate table of results, and we
must patiently wait for the official returns pub
lished in the local papers.
THE EFFECT.
The Tory Organ, this morning, is anxious to
learn on what ground we based our rejoicing at
the remit of the election on Tuesday. We
might answer that our rejoicing wasjustified by
the same news which induced its morunful re
grets Because we believed th.t the people of
Pennsylvania Lad decids d to support the ad
ministtation decided to uphold its policy to
crueh ut rebellio,i and thus restorethecountry
to peace, we rejoiced. The issue was made on
all these subjects. It was plainly stated by
every Democratic organ and candidate in the
state, that, should the Democracy succeed, tax
ation would be repudiated—the laws confis
eating rebel property would be repealed, and
the rebellion iteelf compromised, even to the
recognition of the Confederacy. With these
issue. forced upon us, we contested theelection
with our opponents. We advocated the c nhe
cat,m, of rebel property—we defended the pol
icy of taxation as it was deemed essential to
the support of the government, and whatever
force there was in our written and printed
words, they were freely given in defence and
encouragement of those so nobly battling in the
field, facie to face with an inveterate and bloody
enemy.
Defeated on these issues, (and it is not yet
certain ii,at such is the result) what must be
the effect Suppose the word goes forward to
the men in the army, some of whom are under
arms with their wounds still unhealed, and
others of t whom have sacrificed home, business,
comfort and pleasure,—suppose that the wend
goes to those men that the people at home
have decided against the government What
then ? Will it cheer the soldier to know that
the very government for which he has been
fighting, was rejected by the citizens of the state
that sent him forward to danger and death ? We
cannot disguise to these soldiers, if we would,
that our opponents during the entire election
contest, made the government the issue. We
could not hide the fact that the acts of that
government were openly denounced—that its
representatives were ridiculed, and that its
policy was opposed with more violence in this
state, than the same policy was combatted in
the rebel states. The soldier understands these
facts, too, and he will not consider them light
ly. If the election, then, has resulted in favor
of our opponents, we must expect to hear, if
not discontent, at least of dismay among the
men who compose our armies and fightour bat
tles.
—Viewed in this light, the result of the oleo
tion as it is claimed by the Breckenridgers, may
be a sore and a sad termination to the prospects
of those who gave themselves over to the ne
farious influences which brought it about. We
knew that we had not force sufficient strictly of
Republicans to caL ry an election in this State, on
account of the immense number of Republicans
who are now in the army, and therefore we der
pended on what we presumed were loyal Demo
crats. If these men stuck to their idols, they
have deceived themselves more than they have
succeeded in betraying honest Republicans
or the glorious interests of the Union. What
ever be the result, however, we still have a
duty to perform. We shall stick by Abraham
Lincoln, his Administration and his present
policy, as long as he survives to carry out the
great doctrines to which he now clit.gs. We
shall continue to encourage and support the
army in its struggles to put down rebellion.
And we shall oppose the influences of rebellion,
while we have opportunity to wield a pen or
strength to utter a word. For our friends,
then, we have devotion, zeal and courage—for
our enemies and the enemies of the Govern
ment, defiance, opposition and blows.
OM OF PHI SUCCOSPITh CANDIDATES for the
Legislature in Philadelphia, county, our old
friend, Joseph Moore, of the Fifth District,
looked into our sanctum this morning. con k
sidering the terrible conflict through which he
has just passed, and the brunt of battle he so
nobly sustained, he has come out gloriously.
But the fact is, that Joseph is a clever and a
popular man, made en effilent legislator and a
aithiul representative, and was of course enti
tled to a re-election. The people at least thought
and decided the matter in this manner. •
Taa people of the city of Hudson, New York,
have hit upon a novel expedient to secure a
small change currency without disobeying the
law. The banks of that city permit persons
who make deposits with them to draw checks
for any sum less than a duller. Thaw frac-
tional checks are now in universal use and have
drily= out postage stamps.
PROBABLE COMPLEXION OP THE NEXT'
LEGISLATURE.
It le still impossible to publish an entire, ac
curate list of members elected to the next Le
gislature, but we feel warranted in claiming that,
in any event, the Union Republicans will have
a clear majority on joint ballot, if not in each
House. The Senate is certain. This will ren
der the election of a good true Union Republi
can to the Senate of the United States beyond a
doubt. Truly the chairman of the Breckenridge

TER PROCLAMATION AN EXERCISE OF
TEE WAR POWER.
There can be no question as to what the
President's pr Jciamation must rely upon for its
chief justification. The issuing of the procla
mation was an act performed in the clear exer
cise of the war power. Hence we find Mr. Lin
coin in the very outset of the instrument, de
scribing himself as Commander-in-Chief of the
army and navy. He clearly understood the
act as being performed by him in that capacity.
It is upon this ground thatthe strongest friends
of the President's new policy vindicate the act.
As such we find such men as Joseph Holt, and
many of the ablest constitutionallawyers of the
country, rallying to its support.
For ourselves we have no doubt that, with
out any legislation by Congress upon the sub
ject, the President had the unquestionable au
thority to go just as far as be has done. Being
at the head of the army, be had without any
kind of question, the same power which a Gen
eral in the field, within hie immediate jurisdic
tion, would have to take, use or destroy an
enemy's property. Slaves are the property of
a public enemy. If we admit that slavery is
the cause of he rebellion, this proposition can
not be gaiusayed. Who pretends that Gen
McClellan, Gen. Grant or Geni. Buell receives
any power from Congress to confiscate the ef
fects of public enemies, so far as needed for the
use of their armies, and as may be deemed
necessary for the service, additional to what
was already conferred upon them by interna
tional law ?
Congress appears not to have assumedtomake
law upon this subject. It will be observed that
the language employed in the acts of March 13,
1862, and July 17, treat the right of confisca
tion and liberation of slaves, as already estab
lished. Congress simply provides for the en
forcement of this right, by prescribing penalties
for its non-observance by our Generals. Take,
for example, the act of March 13, entitled " an
act to make an additional article of war." It
is as follows :
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives of the United States in Congress assembled,
That hereafter the following shall be promul
gated as an additional article of war for the
government of the army of the United States,
and shall be obeyed and observed as such :
Article 1. All officers or persons in the
military or naval service of the United States,
are prohibited from employing their forces
under their respective commands for the pur
pose of returning fugitives from service or labor,
who may have escaped from any person, to
whom such service or labor is claimed to be due,
and any officer who shall be found guilty by a
court martial of violating this article, shall be
dismissed from the service.
Remember that this act is antecedent to the
confiscation bill, or any other Congressional
legislation looking to the liberation of any
slaves, except in the District of Columbia.
Hence, it will be seen.that Congress went upon
the idea that the slaves of rebels were already
free—made so by therebellietni conduct of their
masters, and our generals, from the President,
the Commander-in• Chief down, had a perfect
right to so treat them.
It is useless then to talk of further Congres
sional legislation to give force or vitality to the
President's proclamation. Some of the men
who look so much to this legislation, will next
propose that Congress should revise or dictate
the order which it may become necessary for
every Major General hereafter to issue.
CAGED AT bear.—Tharnotorions counterfeiter,
Charles Sabin, who, in years past has caused
much trouble to the police of Boston, was on

pentiogivonto iDaitp ettarg.po, thurottag lfterttoon„ October 16i-1,1862.
The Tory Organ, this morning, not content
with publishing the most villainous false-hoods
against the administration, and presenting the
tax bill in a most odious and false position to
the tax payers before the election, is con
tinuing its misrepresentation by stating that
all the officials employed by the uovernment
had taken an active part to anstain that gov
ernment. We wish to God that such had been
the fact; the result would have been different
from that of which the Tory Organ boasts.
We know of office-holders, contractors and
clerks who are making fortunes and living
off of the government—not only voting against
their benefactors, but standing at the polls and
denouncing the tax bill, from which they de
rive their own bread. These very men contri
buted more towards reducing our majority in
this county and Congressional district, than a
like number of the most influential Brecken
ridgers within the same limits. They may, in
all probability have, defeated our candidate
for Congress, and elected one who will en
deavor to embarrass the administration in all
its measures. We stand prepared to prove that
men who hold omoes under the government
were not defending tbeluiministration, but
voted and acted openly against the candidates
supported by the loyal men of this county'.
The proposed course of Garibaldi, in offering
his sword to the government of the United
States, meets with disfavor in more than one
quarter. The London Times, we see, signifies
its great surprise at the fact, that a man so
thoroughly devoted to the cause of human free
dom, should be willing to enlist against a peo
pie struggling for their independence. The
Times overlooks a distinction, which Garibaldi
very clearly recognizes—theldistinction between
independence and liberty. A government may
be an independent despotism, hut it can't be , a
liberal one. There can be no doubt that Gari
baldrs mind is deeply impressed with the prin
ciples of our Government, and whatever he
may do in its behalf, will be from the purest
motives of disinterested attachment to it, and
not from a mere spirit of restless . ambition,
leading him in the constant pursuit of adven
ture and excitement, as some of our people seem
to think would bathe case. Whenever he has
fought he has bad a principle in view. That
same principle would lead Garibaldi to sympa
thize with our Government in Las preeent strtuk
gle, and to lend it whatever aid he might con.
sistently give. In Italy, his native land, his
efforts have all been for Union,. " United
Italy l" was the rallying cry - in his last, and,
as it has proved, unsuccessful attempt. It would
be the most natural thing in the world for him,
when entertaining such an opinion as to the
true policy of his native country, to depre
cate most severely the idea of division in
this, his adopted country. We have no
doubt, likewise, that Garibaldi takes a deep
er interest in the success of our Govern
ment than a large majority of our own citi
zens. He has adopted it as the model and
the ideal for a government he would, if he had
the power,. establish at home. It is ad ideal
for which he has fought. The experiment is
one in which he considers himself es personally
interested. It is a fact that many fbreigners
by birth among us are really much more de
voted to the principles, and more anxious for
the preservation of our Government, thana
vast majority of our native born citizens They
have decided to live under it, after examination
and study, and know its value by their experi
ence of others There are plenty of men now
serving in the ranks of our armies who are
quite as ready to lay down their lives for the
cause in which they are engaged as any others.
Sigel and Meagher fight valiantly for the
country, and yet we never heard that either
was dangerous to the peace . of the country
when not on the fi eld. Both hive been most
modest and exemplary citizens. So was Geri
bildi while a resident of this country. We need
at this time just such services as the great
Italian can render. If we can get them, it
would be folly to reject them because it is Gar
ibaldi who proposes to furnish them to us. If
he should come, he should be welcomed alike
for his qualifications of head, heart and band.

Tao CUM:RYAN OF rue BBZYLENRIDGE COUNTY
CommixTres, Mr. Alexander Watson, deserves to
be remembered by the loyal men of this county.
He labored with a zeal and perseverence which
proved his love of the work in which he was
engaged. He made truth as cheap as a gambler's
covenant--and assailed the administration and
its, acts with a virulence more beconiing the
venom of the viper that.craarls
= instead of the
snake which walks erect. One year ago, be
professed to be a loyal man. He warmed him
self at the fires kindled by loyal victories ; eat
salt, as it were, with Union men, but when the
hour of danger and trial came, he yielded (not
to his judgment, because men of judgment
would not be guilty of such acts,) to the preju
dices and the flatteries of demagogues, becoming
their tool as the defamer of the very men into
whose confidence and respect he had crawled
by acts of as base, false pretence as ever , disgra
ced hypocrisy. He traversed the county, circu
lating the vilest falsehoods which the Tory Or
gan could concoct. He made the laws of the
last Congress and the acts of the national ad
ministration the subject of his perversion and
misrepresentation. And what has been the
result of all this action f 'Let Alexander Wat
son lmhold it in his own shame and humilia
tion. And let his fate be a warning to alLother
men who may be stimulated to similar conduct.

The loured has a special dispatch from Frank

of this kind received at headquarters here and
the report is discredited.
The same paper says that Bassil Duke, a

that three hundred rebels came into Lexington
this morning, and that our forces captured
$lOO,OOO of jeans from Smith's command. All
these reports nerd confirmation.

depredations in Owen county.
The Memphis Bulb:tin says the guerillas be

A rebel officer, writing to Lexington, says
the rebel General Claiborne was killed near
Perryville, and the rebel General Wood wound
ed. The latter's command had been transfer
red to General Preston. He also writes that
the rebels had about fifteen thousand engaged
in the battle of Perryville.
The Nashville papers of the 12th say that
the United States forces are concentrating a
large force at Fort Donelsor, and mean to clear
that portion of Tennessee of rebels. Many of
the rebel families at Clarksville were preparing
to leave. The "rose water policy" is to be
abandoned. is

to get out of the State.
It is thought that Bragg has hurried south

beaten at Corinth, and that he could not get
reinforcements from that quarter. Large num
bers of rebel dead are still lying unburied at
Perryville. A rebel detachment came to the
field, under a flag of truce, and saw their dad
lying there, but left them without any atten
tion. The guns which the rebels took from us,
and which we recovered, were spiked with tele
graph wire, which we can easily remove.
