Pailg Cettgr*'' THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE FOR FEESLDEHT, ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HARAISBIIRG, PA TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 19, 1864. Meeting of the County Commit- QM The County Committee will meet on FB13:41" evening next, April 22, 1864, at seven o'clock, at the offlee - of H. C. Alleman, Esq., for the purpose of selecting delegates to represent this county in the next State Convention, and transact such other business as may be brought before them. H. THOMAS, Chairman. The Contradictions of our Philadelphia Cotemporaries on the Capital Removal Qoaestion. • In their hot haste to remove the machinery of the State Government to some of the pur lieus of the Quaker city, our Philadelphia co temporaries have forgotten all about the na tional navy yard at League Island. The Even ing Bulletin seems to have been selected to do the dirty work in this business, by persuading the Philadelphia delegation, first, to engage in this most monstrous outrage on the rights and interests of the people of the rural dis tricts; and second, in maligning that same delegation, for acts which.that -journal, in its superior wisdom, regards as illegal and- cor rupt. In one paragraph the Bulletin seeks to cajole the Philadelphia delegation into the moat hasty action for removal; and then, in another article, that sheet endeavors to make amends for the wrong which it advocates, by assuring the State at large that a. removal of the capital to Philadelphia would at least se , cure a more respectable class of represent tives from that county. What are we to under stand from this? Are we to believe that such sheets as the Bulletin wiiiked at the election of the bad men whom it now alleges represent Philadelphia, purposely to carry out the wrong of removal? There is a contradiction about the course of the Bulletin, which renders its position on the removal question absolutely ridiculous; and if anything ever was calcu lated to excite the disgust of the representa tives of the Legislature, it should be the man ner in which the Bulletin treats its own dele gation in that body. We have no threats to make on this subject. What we seek to defend is a plain and simple right. What those engaged in agitating the subject of removal are after, is the perpe tration of a most wicked wrong. Hence the fallacies resorted to, and the, haste sought to be adopted in removing the capital. The people nowhere have been consulted on the subject. The whole scheme is one of specu lation and fraud, concocted for individual - ag grandizement. If it is persisted in, it - will assuredly create precedents that must damage its authors politically. And if the.mass of the mercantile and commercial men of Philadel- Ada will permit their representatives thus to engage in plans for the disgrace of the State, the people of the State at large will hold them responsible for the injury, and retaliate when ever time and occasion afford them the op portunity. A Uniform Currency Congress and the people are constantly di rooting their attention to the subject of a uni form currency. It is admitted on all sides that the circulation of what are called "coun try banks," is at best an uncertain medium of bueiness, by whph the poor man has been shamefully robbed heretofore, and through Which he will continue to be shitved, until a uniform currency is established for the whole country. Besides the enormous profits now paid on the necessaries of life, every country store-keeper makes it a point to charge the difference on discount between the money he receives at home and that which he pays in the city. If we -had a uniform cur atop this shave would be avoided; * but as long as we tolerate the paper which is now afloat, the value of which is dubiously recog— nized beyond the shadow of the bankissuing it, these impositions will be accumulated to the disadvantage of the people. This uni— formity of currency, however, can only be reached by levying a national tax on the issues of all State banks. Congress has no:power to forbid the:issue of bills of credit, but it has the right to impose a tax on the exercise of such a privilege. By levying such a tax, the currency would become improved, by first driving out of recognition all bills of banks solely depending upon their circulation for profits,and by substituting the national curren cy in every part of the country. This •substitu. tion would protect the working man and the -meehanic from the numerous petty shaves to which they are subjected; it would create an ad ditional revenue for the 'Government and greatly strengthen its credit. It was wrong in the first place to permit the States to as sume the power which they now. exercise on the currency. That power grew out of the fallacies of the Democratic leaders, as they were advecated years ago, doubtless with the view to create dangerous contingencies in a crisis such as the nation is now involved.— Experience has taught us that there should be only one money -making power in the land. The faith of the Government in such matters should surely be worth more than the credit of a few individuals, associated for the pur purpose of self-enrichment. To regain_ its full control over the currency, the National Government will be sustained by the voice of the people, in heavily taxing the issues of all State banks. And when all money -making powers are concentrated in one authority, in.. stead of hei3tg detailed to many States, the credit of the whole countrywill be more firmly based than 'ever itwas before, the confidence of the people will be greater in the-currency afforded them for the transaction of their busi ness; while the speculators who now disgrace the age and grind the faces of the poor, will be themselves disgraced and ccpriletely.finsk The National Debt The Cincinnati Daily Times completely unmasks the efforts of the peace Democracy, for the purpose of depreciating the national credit on the score that the public debt is now so large that it can 'never be liquidated, if the interest on it can even be paid. Completely to answer their efforts at depreciation, it is only necessary to refer to the totals as.eXhibi ted in the official statements of the Treasury Department, of March 16th, 1861. From this this we learn that the immediate liabilities are $95,270,246 05. Added to this is the old public debt of $67,417,417_55. The. grand total is $1,596,999,429 33. Of this there were: Three year 7 3-10 bonds 8138,063,800 00 U. S. Legal. - .Tender5......... 449,073,616 60. Fractional Currency_ . 69,173,320 15 20 yenrs' loan of !;61 ... 50,014000 , 00 6 percent. 5-20 80/ids!. .. 510,740,100 po Of the Ten-FoitY bonds there has been is sued, up to the present time, twelve million dollars. Truly formidable as these figures may seem, they dwindle away, comparatively, when we take into consideration the great contest in which a large proportion of the sum has been expended. Not a single.dol- lar has been borrowed from foreign poten tate or poWer, and to-day the issues of the Government , have he abiding confidence of the people. Yet the Democratic opposers to the war tell us that the day Of reckoning will come, and we admit it, while we firmly hope that its advent will, be amid the restored peace and prosperity of the country. If the people have submitted calmly to the direct taxation im posed on them through the, agency of the internal revenue, when ai.l immediate, I:te.'ce.s':• sity for large sums was apparent, they will not repudiate their indebtedness when the unrestrained tide of commerce - shall again flow through its usual channels and they can accommodate themselves more conveniently to the pressure. An export duty, heretofore unknown in our history, "levied upon articles which must ,be supplied to" foreign nations, and which we,. as an. agricultural country can Well furnish, would only be following in the footsteps of those governments older in years and better versed than ourselves in the prov ince of political economy. What its result. might be can only be gleaned from the past. During the eight years previous to 1856 the exports from this country, on articles of pre-, dace mostly, amounted to sixteen hnndred millions of dollars, of which cotton alone was shipped amounting to nearly seven hundred and fifty millions. • The very indebtedness now apparently so heavy. may have the effect to develop more fully , the resources of our wonderful country, and cause us to be less lavish of wealth which has been ruthlessly squandered in the past, And this, too, with no discomfort to ourselves as a people. A tariff for revenue, the encour agement of foreign imniigration, by which the millions of acres of uncultivated land shall be made productive, and a score of other results, which will follow the re-establishment of the Union, will • again enable us to rid the coun try of its indebtedness and win back for it the title it has worn so long as 'the refuge,of the oppresses and the home of the free.

BOUNTY TO NINE-MONTHS' MEN The Senate Military Committee have re ported against the House bill providing for the payment of twenty-five dollars bounty to nine-months' men. In order to correct erroneous. impressions, it'is proper to state that the President's order, of March last, requires that the amounts of mon raised by voluntary enlistments be made up to Aprills, and the draft b,e. made as soon thereafter as practieable. .Ifo arithority is given.for the assertion thatit will take place on the Ist of May.

ASHINGTON April 19. she House coneuried'in the Senate amend went. to the Haase resolution, so as to read that the Comniittee on the Conduct of the War shall inquire - into the truth of the rumors attenclingitlie recent attack on Port Pillow= whether that fort could not have been suffi ciently reinforced, and report the fact 4 as soon as possible. The House.then-went into committee'of the whole on the state of the Union, (Mr. Wash burn in the chair,) and proceeded to the 'consideration of the internal;tax bill. . . ' Mr.. Morrell (Vt.) explained the proviiions of measure. The war having continued longer than was anticipated, it was now neces sary to revise our estimates so as to cover all deficieneles. The demands upon the Trea sury are unprecedented, but our resources are equal to any emergency, good or bad. The'receipts froin this bill and from.foreign, importatiOn Will, deduCting 'the" ordinary ex penses of a hundred millions annually, be much greater than would pay the interest on tho debt Of three thousand millions, with a most I . 4peetable sinking flindk besiires if we 'pass this bill it ‘vi,ll show that we will main oip. our .fipancial l credit at all doe. • ; Wo have 13n4er the present law received' forty or fifty millions more than last year. Even now the revenue from the internal tax, as well as that anticipated, is more important to the treasury than the revenue from imports, and both arc equal to any ordinary expenditure in time of peace. If we pass this measure without curtailing the rater, we shall furnish proof that we cannot only pay the interest on the public debt and ordinary expenditures in time of war, but shall contribute handsomely to keep our own expenditures within mod erate limits. NEW YouE, April 19 We shall show the people of the United States that we not only have the means to pay every dollar we owe, or ever will owe, but the principal and interest of the public debt in coin. He repeated that the public faith will be maintained at all hazards. The Govern ment is now supplied with more gold than is suffieient for its purposes, and is actually begging its creditors to receive payment in ad vance in order to be relieved from the plethora of gold which is blocking up the commerce of the country. Let it be known that if the war be closed in 1865, we will be able not only to support the Government, but pay the national debt in a little more than ten years. Let it also be known that the present large annual expenditures are uoi equal to our annual in creased wealth. He trusted that every member will consent to make lane sacrifices for the good of the country. Let us have taxes and loans, lessen the amount of legal tenders, and increase the pay of the soldiers. It is hoped the internal and import taxes will enable the Secretary of the Treasury to-obtain all the funds he wants, and reduce the legal tender issues. The freed men will contribute much more to the nation's wealth than ever their friends claim. They are largely increasing the amount of produc tion to which they were limited by unpaid and forced labor. He examined the subject in an economical light and did not present a mere theory. Our faith is pledged to give them shelter and pro- MEM Mr. Morrill then examined at length the prominent features of the bill, stating that even without its machinery they might raise a larger sum than is now proposed. It will yield over two hundred and fifty million when fairly in operation, `The Impending Battle. • A ry i • : : Is r • : II FLELD. [From the tolumbus (Ga.)

Much of this work must be performed by the personit influence and Miens of ladies ant gentlencen aseociated. or to be associated with the Committee in carrying out hhs plan. The Committee feel the responsibility of the work they have undertaken, which, to be successful, will require A very perfect ramification of their plan, and they dime. , call upon all earnest people to assemble themselves to gether in every town, township and county, and term or ganizations. of. ladies and g entlemen to co-operate wall them in this great work and labor of love. In the mum factoring counties, the coal and oil regions, and in thoagri cultural districts—especially, let there be organizations in the large towns, so that the young people may have an opportunity thus to render assistance to. their relatives and friends lighting the bathes of their country in the ar mies of the netiop.
