Pennsylvania's Military Ageney at
Washington
We have only time and space this afternoon
to call the attention of the people and the
army to the letter of Gov. Curtin, addressed
to Col. Jordan, the Military Agent at Wash
ingtan, announcing the enlarged duties of
that agency, and fixing rides for the more
complete service and accommodation of our
troops in the field. It is important that the
facts of this communication should immedi
ately be given a place in the columns of every
newspaper in the State, as a means of inform
ing the soldier of the facilities thus offered
him, and we therefore suggest to our ootem
poraries Republication as an item of valuable
hews.
A Call for the Militia.
It will be seen by the proclamation of the
Governor, that the militia force of the State
has been counselled at once to organize and
hold itself in readiness for a call from the Na
tional Government. In view of the great
straggle now going on between Grant and
Lee, and for the purpose of rendering the ef
forts,of our armies entirely successful, it is
only proper that a large and an immediately
available reserve corps be at once organized
in all the States. To effect this is the object
of Gov. Curtin. Even should the Federal
Government not need a man of the militia of
the State, there is nothing lost in being pre
pared for every emergency. A hundred thou
sand men, under this proclamation, can easily
be prepared, so that should the force be
needed to ensure victory on the South Anna,
or repel' invasion on the upper Potomac, their
fitness for service will only be appreciated,
when danger makes it necessary to call them
to the field. However much Pennsylvania
has already done, she is likely to be called on
to do still more. Let her then gird up her,
loins while she has time, and arm for the final
great struggle before its fary bursts upon her
war path.
The Forged Proclamation
The President's proclamation which ap
peared in the New York World of yesterday,
was designed to have an influence in Europe,
by showing the desperate condition of the
Federal authority, in calling for so large a
number of men. The mail' steamer Scotia
sailed from New York for Europe yesterday.
It was hoped that she would leave her wharf
with the news of this proclaination before its
spurious character could be detected and ex
posed. Its effect in England would have been
invaluable in favor of the rebel cause, tending
to afford them additional loans to prolong for
a few months this bloody and causeless war
on their part.
The fact that the proclamation appeared as 'a
special dispatch . in the Nets York World is ev
idence of its paternity and object. It may be
regarded as the last card of the Northern sym
pathizers with rebellion; 'and its failure is in
dicative of the declining strength df the ene
mies of the Goiernment at home and abroad.
So far from the proclamation having passed
over the wires of any telegraphic company,
we believe that it originated in the World
office a source whence has emanated more
treason to and libel of the Government than
has yet been contained in all the tory organs
in the land.
What We Are Doing for the War.
We have alluded in another article, to the
unfounded complaints indulged in by some of
our cotemporaries, that Pennsylvania is in
different and slow in her labors to supply her
quotas of troops. In one sense such a com
plaint should be answered with the recom
mendation that those who are dissatisfied
with the asserted tardiness of the State au
thorities in this connection, should seek the
nearest recruiting station and enlist with ala
crity, as an example of their earnest desire to
fill up our . armies in the field. BUt it only
requires a word to show what Pennsylvania is
doing to serve the Government in the dark
hour of its peril. The population of no State
in the Union has been; and yet is, more iden
tified with all the warlike operations of the
Government; and hence while the idle and
unemployed people of other Commonwealths
find their way into the army because they have
"nothing else to do," thousands of laborers
are absolutely retained at home in Pennsylva
nia, directly serving the Government. In this
service immense numbers of men are engaged
in supplying our innumerable fleets of iron
clads that now float on the waters of the riv
ers of the interior, with coal, while the supply
for the blockading fleets engages an equal
force. We supply the material for . the cloth-
log of the iron-cla:ds—we furnish the iron- for
their machinery—we manufacture • the shot
and shell -- we turn out daily` the ordnaßae,
principally for the army and iaNy-:--besides
largely meeting the ordinary demands of-the
quartermaster's and commissary
This service requires the highest order 4of
skilled labor. Artisans of eminence, profes
sional men of experience and acumen—the
geologist and the miner- - the engineer and the
mathematician--with that intelligent labor
which alone is:fitted for real industry—era..
brace the vast army of our citizens bow
directly in the employ of the •Government.
And yet there are those in Pennsylvania who
impertinently assert that our State authorities
are neglecting their duty !
Pennsylvania Soldiers.
A disposition is manifested by some of our
potemporaries;. to grumble-because Gov. _Cur
tin hos not proceeded with precipitation
to the organization of the Pennsylvania
gilitiai while - odious comparisons be
tween Pennsylvania and the other States
are instituted, because they have been fur
nishing troops to reinforce the army, while
it is alleged, the military spirit of the Key
stone lies dormant and inactive. As Penn
sylvanians, we have nothing to do with the
other States or their relations to the National
Government—professing neither to be guided
by their successes or their failures in the
business of reinforcing the armies in the field.
But in this case, an explanation is due to show
that the State authorities are not abating
their energies to sustain the Federal Govern
ment in its struggle with rebellion, and that
the relations existing: between the National
and State Administrations are of a cordial,
reciprocal and confidential character. When
ever a call is made on Pennsylvania for troops,
Gov. Curtin will promptly furnish the num
ber needed; and whenever the Government makes
such ci call on the old' Reystone Stale, it will not
be for militia to take the place of tried soldiers in
the fortifications at Washington, Alerandria or
Fredericksburg. IT SYLGI, BE FOB rpraor.q TO GO
TO THE FRONT AND ' TAEE PAST IN THE BLOODY
CONTEST WITH THE VETERANS OF THE REBEL All
anus. Hence, those who are so anxious on
the subject of calling out the militia, can af
ford to have patience, if their anxiety arises
from an honest desire to serve their country,
as when the call does ring out over the hills
and valleys of-the old Keystone State, it will
be for men of mettle as well as muscle, •to
take part in a fray where death blows will be
given and received. But if this constant cry
about Pennsylvania neglecting her dlity is
:a Mere outburit of the intolerance of those
who seek to strike the head of the State Gov
ment through the - honor ofthe Common
wealth, weheg of 'them to desist; lest in the
fury of an outraged and indignant people,, the
blows are made to recoil, and the injUry which
is sought to be inflicted :upon: the State and
its faithful servants, be hurled upon them
selves with.ernshing, deadly force. •
The States that are now furnishing reinforce
ments to the Government, do so by devoting
the militia to a duty within =their own limits
which has long devolved on a portion of the
great armies of the Republic. The hundred
day men in the West, are now doing that duty.
They are relieving the men in the fortifications
there, as they are in New York, Maryland,
Delaware and NewtTersey. There are no points
in Pennsylvania now needing defonee, and
hence there is no demand for our militia to re
lieve troops stationed within the borciers of
the Commonwealth. Were such; roops needed
they would be forthcoming without 'delay.
When they are called for they will come forth
in solid columns ready, as their brothers have
been, to do and die in the defence of their
Government. And when that call comes
those who answer it calculate to be led where
the foe is arrayed for deadly strife, and not to
lounge in listless idleness in the safe retreat
of the strong fortifications around the Federal
capital. In the meantime, therefore, we trust
that this grumbling about Pennsylvania doing
her duty will cease. Pennsylvania has:not
failed in a single duty to the Government, she
has not delayed the discharge of a single ob
ligation ; but in all things ,she has been as
true to the nation , of which she is so import
ant a portion, as she is to God, ,to whom she
looks for inspiration to nerves her for the
fight.
THE psarmsorrr AND STAUNCH courage of
General GEArcr will in the end accomplish the
destruction of the Confederate army, but the
people of the North ntust not anticipate, such
a speedy result as the usual national impa
tience demands. The arn:iY'Of veterans under
LEE does not dissolve under a defeat; it is' still
a compact mass of hardened soldiery, and
nothing short of a continuance of the terrible
fighting which has distinguished the battles
of the past, will destroy its capacity for mis
chief. Be-enforcements are being sent rap
idly forward,- and 'the importance of the call
ing out of the militia of • the North, to enable
our three years' troops to be, sent forward, is
now seen. • • - .
THE recur THAT gnx. liox.E's forces now hold
Fort Darling, is evidence that nearly the en
tire rebel troops, except Johnson's and Polk's
armies, are in the defences around Rich
mond. Hoke was the capturer of Plymouth,
North Corolina, and commander of all the
rebel troops in that State. When the force-in
Virginia is destroyed, Jeff. Davis will have no
army to fall back upon.
Ax namaNsu estimate is furnished us /as to
the strength of the rebel army. Lee is re
ported to have underhis immediate command
abount 150,000 men. We are inclined to
doubt the statement.
Suspension of a Baltimore Paper
BALrixone, Wednesday, May 18.
The Evening Transcript, a disloyal paper,
was suspended 10-day by order - of General'
Wallace,-for publishing a dispatch.saying that
the loss of the Potomac Army was seventy
thousand men, and crediting the same to the
Assoeiated Press. It was proved that the pa
per did not take the Associated Press dis
patches, and that the dispatch in question did
not emanate from any agent of the Associated
Press. .

Last night a body of stragglers arrived from
Washington to the number of six hundred,

having surgeons' certifLoatels of disability and
others slightly wounded.
Gen. Meads has peremptorily ordered the
latter to be tried by court martial. Many re
signations have been sent in within the past
two days and all will have to be accepted for
the good of the Service, as, it is believed that
no officer capable and - disposed to perform his
duty would resign at this time. •
It was reported yesterday afternoon that the
enemy were moving columns of troops and
wagon trains towards Bowling Green, under
the impression that our annywere endeavbr
ing to turn their right.
This morning at 4:40 firing opened briskly
on our right, and it is believed that Generals
Grant and Meade intended to push the rebels
sharply.
A large force of cavalry"from the dna-.

fresh horses, and will be of great service to
the army in the absence of General Sheridan's
command.

heretofbreciii every battle field distinguished
for courage and efficiency, but who, in the

DR. WiSHART'S
PINE TREE
TAR CORDIAL
IS THE VITAL PRINCIPLE OF THE PINE TREF,
Obtained by a peculiar process in the dis
tillation of the tar, by which its highest med
ical properties are retained.
nave you a Gough ? Have you Sore 770.00 t?
Have you any of the premonitory symptoms
of that most fatal disease, Consumption?
Those who should be warned by them
symptoms generally think lightly of theta
until itis too late, From this fact, pe l l iapi ,
more than any other, arises the sad preva
lence and fatality of disease which sweeps to
the grave at least "one-sixth" of death's
victims.
Consumption has destroyed more of the
human family than any other disease, and the
best physicians for many years have despaired
of a cure, or a remedy that would heal the
lungs, but for more than two hundred years
the whole medical world has been impressed
that there was a mysterious power and effi
ciency in the Pine Tree Tar to heal the lngs;
therefore they have recommended the use of
Tar Water, which in many cases had a good
effect; but how to combine the medical uro
parties so as to heal the Jungs, has ever keen
a mystery until it was discovered by Dr. L.
Q. C. WLSHART, of Philadelphia, Pa., the
proprietor'of "Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cor
dial."
Many, net only of the people, but physi•
clans of every school and practice, are daily
asking me, "What is the principle or cause of
your success in the treatment of Pulmonary
Consumptian ?' My answer is this:
me invigoration of the digestive organs -
the strengthening of the debilitated system_
the purification and enrichment of the blood,
must expel from the system the corruption
which scrofula breeds. While this is effected
by the powerful alterative (changing from
alaae•a to health) properties of the Tar Cor
dial, its healing and renovating principle is
also acting upon the irritated surfaces of the
lungs and throat, penetrating to each dis.
eased part, relieving pain, subduing inflamma
tion, and restoring a healthful tendency. Let
this two-fold power, the healing and the
strengthening, con.thine to act in conjunction
with Nature's constant recuperative tendency,
and the patient is saved, if he has not too
long delayed a resort to the means of cure.
I ask all to read the following certificate&
They are from men and women of unques
tionable worth and reputation:
Da. WisatEr—Dear Sir:—l had a very
dreadful cough and sore throat for one year,
and my whole system was fast giving way, and
I wasTrostrated on my bed with but little
hope of recovering. My disease baled the
power of all medicines, and in a short time I
must have gone to any grave, but thank God,
my daughter-in-law would not rest until she
went to your store, No. 10 N. Second street,
and related my case to you, purchased one
bottle of your Pine Tree Tar Cordial and I
commenced to use it, and in one week I was
much better, and after using three bottles I
am perfectly well, and a wonder to all my
frien4 for they all pronounced me past cure.
Publish my case if you think proper.
REBECCA. HAMILTON,
• No. 1321 Wylie street Philadelphia.
Dr. Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cordial is an
it c , liable cure for Bronchitis, Bleeding of
the Lungs, Sore Throat and Breast, Tallomma
Lion of the Lungs.
Mr. Warn says:
Da. WisuArr—Sir:--I had Bronchitis, In
flammation of the Lungs, Shortness of Breath,
and Palpitation of the Heart in their worst
forms; I bad been treated by several of the
most eminent physicians in Philadelphia, but
they could not stop the rapid course of my
disease, and had despaired of ever being re
stored to he
Cul I was truly on the verge of
the grave. -Your Pine Tree Tar Cordial was
highly recommended to me by a friend; I
tried it, and am thankful to say that, after
using four large, and one small, bottles, I was
restored to perfeck health. You can give re
ference to my house, No. 968 N. Second street,
or at my office of Receiver of Taxes, Irma 9
A. sr. to 2 r. corner of Chestnut and Sixth
streets. JOHN WARD.
Read the following from Utica:
Ds. Wmuanr—Dear Sir:—l take pleasure
in informing you through this source that
your Pine Tree Tar Cordial, which was racora
mended for my daughter by Dr. J. A. Hall, of
this city, has cured her of a cough of more
than five months' standing. Iliad thought
her beyond cure, and had employed the best
of medical aid without any benefit. I can
cheerfully recommend it tothe public as a Said
and sure remedy for those similarly afflicted,
as I know of many other cases besides that et
my daughter thatit has entirely cured of long
standing coughs. Yours respectfully,
JOHN V. PARKER, Daguerrean Artist.
