A DISCOVERY.
Our exposure of the desperation of those who
control die Democracy, andshare the patronage
of which that party manages to possess itself,
has induced the Patriot to boast a discovery of
inconsistency on the part of the TILLIGRA.PH.
We have heretofore expressed ourselves as con
tented to abide by the decision of the Supreme
Court, so far as it relates to the right of the
solder to vote for local offices, contented,
however, only so long as it would require to
change the law on this subject, believing that it
is radically wrong and heartlessly unjust thus
to disfranchise the soldier. We are ready to
support any legislation which will thus change
the law—ready to support any decree which
enfranchises the soldier, regardless whether he
is engaged in fighting the battles of the nation
at the otter extremeties of the earth.
So far a , the vote for Congress and the Legis
lature is concerned, we believe that the soldier
has a clear right under the law, to exercise such
a franchise ; and so far as his vote for local
offices involves any right, we believe that the
law which deprives him of such a right, is both
unjust and unrighteous, and should at once be
expunged from the statute books. As we have
often written and printed with reference to this
subject, the citizen. when he enters the army or
navy, time not give up voluntarily, nor should
he be deprived by law, of a single political
right or franchise. the legislation which at
tempt this is monstrous, and the judiciary
which sustains such legislative action, tyranni
cal. In regard to this law of disfranchising th e
soldier relates to Pennsylvania, we believe that
it will be repealed at the coming session of the
legislature, unless the Democracy succeed in
fighting if such a repeal.
A VERY LARGE BAG WANTED
With a very large nag, we also want a Gene
ral who can bag the rebels. We have a num
ber of strapped gentlemen in the field, who are
adepts at planing captures, but unfortunately
fail in the execu lion of their strategy. Wheth
er the fault is with the bag, or whether the
rebels are tuo sharp to be bagged, has not been
clearly demonstrated. But that the failure is
owing to a fault somewhere, most people readi
ly admit. Tide fault, however, is not with the
people, for God knows that they have furnished
the muscle and the means for any quantity of
bagging. (hough his purse is low, Uncle Sam
authoriz s us to say that he will pay a liberal
salary to any general who will demonstrate hie
ability to bag the rebels. He does not require
that this should embrace the entire rebel popu
lation, or even an army division. 'Let it be
demonstrated that a brigade can be bagged, and
the result will be acknowledged as a clear eat
tablishmeut of the bagging policy.
The Louisville Journal, referring to the same
subject, says that people are getting tired of so
much talk about bagging rebels. Our forces
are always about to bag rebels, but don't bag
them. The promise comes duly off, but the
bagging doseu't. When Lee's forces crossed
the Potomac into Maryland, it was published
every where that our army would bag the whole
of them—but it didn't. When Stuart'e cavalry
more recently made a bold dash 200 miles
through Maryland into Pennsylvania, the coun
try was vehemently assured that we should
bag every man of them—but we didn't. When
Gen bill a few days ago, made a rush into
ecatttring Morgan's guerillas, it is
said, in all directions, we were cheered with the
declaration that he could bag the last man of
them—but he couldn't. When Bragg retrea
ted atter the battle of Chaplin Hills, we were
all exhiliarated with the intelligence that Buell,
Gilbert and Granger were on all sides of him,
hemming him in, and that they would bag him
just as certainly as he lived—but they did noth
ing of the sort. When we hear of rebel troops
being completely "hemmed in," we can hardly
help raaponding "ahem I As for bags, the rebels
generally give us the bag to hold, but not with
themselves in it 1
Two Dowse= citizens -at Pottsville have
resolved to testify their appreciation of their
eminent fellow townsman, the Hon. Francis
W. Hughes, by presenting him with a hand.
some silver ear vice. A large mass meeting was
held on the subject, on the evening of the 18th
inst., at the Democratic headquarters, in
Pottsville, and the necessary preliminary ar
rangementa were made. In order to give all
en opportunity to contribute, the subscriptions
were limited to one dollar each.
It would be quite appropriate if Mr. Hughes'
"secesh" resolution were inscribed in foil upon
the largest piece of plate, which should be of
brass; and it should be recorded that it was his
glory to organize his friends at home, to fight
at the ballot-boa against the Union, while the
more patriotic men of the Commonwealth were
abroad fighting with muskets to sustain It.
SIIMNING IN MINNESOTA.—The Indian mas
sacres in Minnesota Lave produced great dis
tress among the settlers all along the frontier
counties. Appeals for contributions to aid
them are being made in the principal cities,
and no object of charity can be more pressing
and worthy. The Governor of Minnesota states
that, at least thirty thousand miserable men,
heartbroken women and abject children are
wandering, homeless, naked and starving. Ger
tainly nurcountry affords no parallel of sneer
ing such as this. Clothing is greatly needed
by the suffering, for the rigors of winter are
dose at hand.
'AVIV THE REBELLION COULD HAVE
BEEN AVOIDED
Since Gen. Scott so overwhelmingly fixed
the cause and the responsibility of the slave
holders' rebellion on the influences which were
and still are engendered by modern Democracy,
some of the newspaper organs of that party are
attempting to show how that rebellion coukl have
been avoided. While such organs are laboring
for this purpose, it is generally conceded by men
who have been close observers of the politics of
and politicians of the south that such an imam
motion of the slave states was inevitable. The
Albany iihenitv Journal says that it was a plot of
km hatching This is as true at is the fact that
the system of American slavery would antago-
Wee a free Government such as is represented
by the American Union, whether that govern
ment existed in the old or the new world. Thns,
then, the efforts to overthrow this government
were not only long in hatching, butthe conspire
tors have long been at work in secret, and the
ekction of a Republican President was merely the
OCCASION and not the CIAININ of the outbreak.
It has been supposed that the arch rebels had
determined fully and deliberately to tarry no
longer with the despised and hated North, but
to strike boldly for empire. It has been sup
posed that no amount of self degradation on
our part, that no concesssions and humiliations
we could make, would have been sufficient to
induce them to remain in the Union.
Bnt it seems we were mistaken'. There was
one condition upon which Messrs Davis, Toombs
Si, Co. would have consented to live under the
old flag. This condition was, the perpetual su
premacy of the Democratic party I The oracle
which reveals to us this bit of pregnant history
is the Cincinnati Enquirer—the leading Fallen
, digham Democratic organ in the West. It says :
If Mr. Buchanan were now President, or any other
Northern Democrat, the country would be enjoying
peace and prosperity. If Id r. Buchanan had been
defeated in 1866, and John C. Fremont had been
elected, the rebellion which broke out in 1861 would
have happened in 1867. The success of the De
mocracy arrested the blow for four years,
and it
would have been indefinitely postponed if another. Demo
erotic triumph had been, realized in 1860.
What a confession I "If Mr. Buchanan were
now President," "the country would be enjoy
ing peace and prosperity." "If Mr. Buchanan
had been defeated in 1856, and John C. Fre
mont had been elected, the rebellion which broke
out in 1861 would have happened in 1857 I" Free
men of the North do you hear that? Yon ate
told by one of the leading organs of a faction
that seeks to gain control, that if you had con
sented to surrender your liberties—consented to
forego your right of expressing your honest con
viction at the ballot-box— consented to become
the mere vassals of an Oligarchy, and deliver
yourselves, body and soul, into the custody of
three hundred and fifty thousand slaveholders
—consented to allow the agents of such slave
holders to put the manacles on you, and rob
you of manhood and self-respect—you might,
to-day, be "enjoying peace and pros[erity !"
Nothing could have been simpler than the role
you would have been required to play. You
had only to leave Mr. Buchanan in the place he
disgraned—only to allow him to continue his
disgraceful rule during bad behavior—only to
let the election ge by default—stay away from
the polls, and leave the Fire-eaters and their .
Northern allies the burden of unlimited empire.
Bat you chose to consider yourselves free men
—you chose to dispute the right of the "Demo
cratic Party" to become life members of the
National Administration—and behold your pun
ishment !
The Enquirer does not follow the argument
to its ultimate consequence. It leaves the rea
der to supply the inference. That inference is
so plain that he who runs may read. The defeat
of the Democratic Party having been the cause
of the Rebellion, its restoration to power will
arrest its progress. The cause of the outbreak
having been removed, why should the outbreak
itself continue t Here then is a short road to
Pcace ! Let Mr. Lincoln resign ; let the people
of the loyal States forego their claim to a voice
in theldirection of our National affairs ; let Mr.
Buchanan, or Vallandigham, or Senator Bright,
or Fernando Wood, or some other "Northern
Democrat" of unequivocal Southern leaning,
be elevated to the Executive Chair—and we
shall have "peace and prosperity" in lees than
sixty days. Even Yancey and hie extreme Fire
eiders would consent to return on condition of
being made perpetual Dictators.
We matt have something to say in our next
number on the result of the recent election in
this Congressional District. At present we
have not sufficient data to justify the position
we hope then to take. If we are not very
much mistaken, an analysis of the recent vote
will leave the victors but little cause for re
joining. At all events a knowledge of the
causes of our defeat (as it is called) may pre
vent a similar result in the future.—Cnfrai
Press.
It pussies a great many good Union men to
know how James T. Hale could thus rally a
vote to elect him, among a class of men who
continually denounced him ae an "Abolitian
-Ist," an "Aristocrat," a Black "Republican,"
Brc. Either the dough-faces of the. Centre Con
gressional District have receded from their
heresies, or Mr. Hale must have succeeded in
assuring them with pledges such as Mr. Arm
strong could and would not give. At all
events, we hope that the Central Press will give
us the true story.
DIVISION IN TRI UNION EMPIMILIOAN PARTY.
—The cause of the partial success of the dans
erata, (as they call themselves,) was a great di
vision in the party of the Union. One wing
of the party went one way and another went
another. They could not and did not work
together ; yet this division could not well be
avoided. One part went off to fight against
the demonists who live south of,..the Potomac
and Ohio, while the remainder stayed at home
to vote against the wing of the same party
who live in the . northern states. The breach
will be healed when the warle over.
WHO WAS RIGHT.—The ilithmicm asks the
question, who was right when Gen. Cameron
warmly urged the arming of a million of men
b 0 subdue this rebellion, while his enemies ridi
doled the idea. The Natonian furtheradds, that
it - appears now that the General had•farther
kilt of this rebellion than any other 'Mae man
at the time.

ST. Loins, Oct. 24.—T0 &Won GENERAL
EiALLECR, General-in Chief :
Our arms are entir4y successful again in
north-western Arkansas'
' Gen. Schofield, finding that' the enemy had
camped at Pea Ridge, sent Gen. Blunt with the
Post Division westward, and moved towards
Huntsville with the rest of his forces:
Gen. Blunt, by making a hard night's march,
reached and attacked the rebel force at Mays
ville, near the north-west corner of Arkansas, at
7 o'clock A. M., on the 22d inst. The enemy
was under cover, and estimated at some 5,000
to 7,000 strong. - -
The engagement lasted about an hour, and
resulted in the total rout of the enemy with
the loss of all his artillery, a battery of six
pounders, a large number of horses and a por
tion of their transportation and camp and gar
rison equipage.
Our cavalry and light howitzers were still in
pursuit of the scattered forces.
When the messenger left our loss was small.
General Schofield purshed the rebels through
Huntsville and beyond Huntsville, coming close
Upon them. The enemy fled precipitately be
yond the Boston mountains. All the organized
rebel forces of the west have thus been driven
back to the valley of the Arkansas river, and
the army of the frontier has gallantly and suc
cessfully accomplished its mission.

[From the Richmond inquirer, Oct. 20.]
Despatches transpiring with the War Depart
ment state nothing more than that Bragg had
fallen back from his former position a distance
of forty miles, for the Ifttrpose of securing sub
sistence. The combination of the Unionists
having bee:l strongly reinforced, rendered the
move absolutely necessary.
It is surmised that Rosecrans bad commenced
a strategic movement to form a junction with
Buell, and cut of our army entirely.
We have nothing new from the Army of the
Potomac. The enemy's cavalry have renewed
their raids in Fauquier, and on Saturday visited
Bristow Station, on the Orange and Alexandria
Railroad. They also visited Warranten again
in considerable force. A train laden with rail
road stuff narrowly escaped being captured on
Saturday at Bristow. Five hundred paroled
Union prisoners were sent down to Verina yea

We have reports from Winchester that a por

We scarcely think that Charlestown will be the

Wassiuus, It is a good thing to render thanks
unto God for all His mercy and loving kind-
I=l
Therefore, I, Arumsw G. Orator, Governor
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, do re
commend that THURSDAY, THE 27th DAY OF
NOVEMBER NEXT, be set apart by the people
of this Commonwealth, as a day of solemn Prayer
and Thanksgiving to the Almighty :—Giving
Him humble thanks that He has been gracious
ly pleased to ptotect our free institutions and
Government, and to keep us from sickness and
pestilence—and to cause the earth to bring
forth her increase, so that our garners are
choked with the harvest—and to look so favor
ably on the toil of His children, that industry
has thriven among us and labor bad its reward;
and also that He has delivered us from the
hands of our enemies—and filled our officers
and men in the field with a loyal and intrepid
spirit, and given them victory—and that He
has poured out upon us (albeit unworthy) other
great and manifold blessings :
Beseeching Him to help and govern us in His
steadfast fear and love, and to put into our
minds good desires, so that by His continual
help we may have a right judgment in all
things :
And especially praying Him to give to Chris
tian churches grace to hate the thing which is
evil, and to utter the teachings of truth and
righteousness, declaring openly the whole
counsel of God :
And most heartily entreating Him to bestow
upon our civil rulers, wisdom and earnestness
in council, and upon our military leaders, seal
and vigor in action, that the fires of rebellion
may be quenched—that we, being armed with
His defence, may be preserved from all perils,
and that hereafter our people, living in peace
and quietness, may, from generation to genera
tion, reap the abundant fruits of His mercy,
and with joy and thankfulness praise and mag
nify His holy name.
Given under my hand and the great seal of the
State, tt Harrisburg, this Twentieth day" of
October, in the year of our Lord one thousand
eight hundred and sixty-two, and of the
Commonirealth the eighty-seventh.
