THE SITUATION.
At nine o'clock this a. as., we had a tele
graphic. dispatch from the Government ope
rator at 'Hagerstown, to the effect that all
Was quiet on the Potomac, as far as his
knowledge, at the time he wrote his dispatch,
extended. Had a °elision taken place any
where on the Potomac, on Saturday or yes
terday, we certainly would have had some in
telligence of the fact. At least no battle could
have been fought anywhere in the' neighbor
hood of the old Antietam battle ground,
witbou' the ope ator at Hagerstown havitig
Some information of the fact. Hence, it i:,
unprofitable to speculate at this hour, as to a
collision having . taken place on the Potomac,
with tho dispatch alluded to before tts ; but
speculation will continue to bo made in re•
ference to the probabilty of the battle likely
to be fought somewhere near Frederick,
Sharpeburg or the South Mountain. We
must leave the reader to indulge in such
Speculations for himself, as we have about as
much as we can do these days to reoord events
and facts as they occur.
National Teachers' Association
This important body will assemble in Og
densburg, N. Y., on the 9th of
. August, and
continue its sessions through the 10th. arid
11th inst. Arrangements have been made
for the reduction of fare on the principal lines
of communication with that point, so that it
will be within the means of alost every
teacher in Pennsylvania to be present at tin
sessions of the National Association. Samuel
P. Bates, Deputy Superintendent of Common
Schools in Pennsylvania, has been named to
deliver the address on Wednesday evening
He is'an able and experienced gentleman on
the subject of teaching, and will no doubt
produce .a highly interesting and instructive
address on the occasion.
Tr=
Dleot ins of the Legl-lature.
The Legislature will meet tomorrow, in
obedience to the call of the Governor. It it
not necessary for ns to advert to the circum
stances which hive made this call necessary;
hor will we enlarge ma the important duties
which will devolve on the assembly from the
hour of its meeting. But we will venture the
hope that no legislation except that entirely
relating to the interests of the Commonwealth,
will receive any attention at the present ses
sion Let the Legislature for awhile forget
individuals—let the representatives of corpo
rations have the "cold shoulder," and let us
have a session of a few days exclusively de
voted to the business of the State. God
knows Pennsylvania needs this attention.
Her border is undefended to the incursions
of the rebel foe—her citizens in the southern
tier of 'emmtibs are daily and nightly in peril
of assassination, their property constantly in
danger of rebel torches, and the peace of that
whole region frightfully insecure. These are
the grave subjects which will come before the
Legislature immediately on its opening ses
sion to-morrow, and we trust that until these
are fully and practically legislated for, no
other business will be admitted to the atten
tion or consideration of the Legislature,
gi leer the'tlefeftee of the state."
Before the issue of the call of the Gov
ernor for thirty thousand militia to
serve on the border for State • defence,
there was a great deal of talk started by
Pertain blatant "Democrats," who insisted
that they were ready at any time to enroll in
force organized to protect Pennsylvania
from invasion. It is just such scamps as
these who have given the "Democratic" party
a bad name. If these fellows were to do their
duty according to.their ability for. good. they
would of course amount to little in the way
of making reputation, and in the ranks of a
great army sink beneath the commonest arid
most ordinary trldier now carrying a musket.
Hence, the knaves resort to all sorts of tricks
to keep themselves prominently before the
people, even if their presence does partake of
an odium which is offensive to all decent and
sensible men. And as evidence of this fact,
all this talk abo ,t enrolling for "State de
fence " was indulged by those individuals to
whom we allude. But since Gov. Curtin has
called for a force to perform this duty, we
hive not beard of a man of the clique that
heretofore boasted of his devotion to the State,
offering his eerviee for its defence. States'
sights is one thing, when it can be used to
impair the integrity or imperil the safety of
the National Government, and it:is another
and a very different thing when those who
profess it are called onto respond to its senti
ments in places of danger.
Ova ootratronatras in the Cumberland Val

the enemy. Those establishments which have
not been entirely destroyed by fire, are de

There is something singularly striking in
the similarity and spontaneous acts with
Which the reciprocities of tho copperhead
sympathizers with treason and the traitors
themselves hive beiliii - distinguished through
taut the long years devoted to the preptifratiore l
for rebellion and the shorter years given to its ,
blot:4y, inhuman and villainous operations.
The topperhead leaders, or if you please, the
doughface Democratic leaders, have been un
tiring for years in the effort to convince the
South that it contained a superior race—that
that race of men were badly treated by the
industrious and thrifty population of "the
North, East and West—that the trade in hu
man flesh as it was conducted by the chivalry
-of the South, was the legitimate calling of a
free people—that slavery was the merited and
normal condition of labor—that the Prosperity
of the free States was the result of abolition
ism, and that the abolitionists were unfit to
govern. For thirty years, such eras the bur
den of every Democratic platform. For thirty
years, when in power, the Democratic leaders
sought to prostitute the energies, the intelli
gence and the resources of the whole country,
to the benefit and the strengthening of the
institution of slavery. When these efforts
ceased to be successful, when the great masses
of the North began to extend the march of
empire over the Rocky Mountains and along
the Pacific coast—when territory acquired one
year became great free commonwealths the
next, taking their places in Congress with del
egation.s that overshadowed in number and
influence those of the slave States, the min

and its breeders in the South. deemed that

gunk the reciprocities of the slave
hiving Traitors and the copperhead-dough
facet sympathizers with treason. The one
uelped the other in the first steps of rebellion.
The northern dough-face manufactured the
pleas for treason. Now, finding themselves
both involved, and discovering that the peo
ple in the free States are determined to main
tain the government, both aro busy in creat
ing a feeling among the loyal masses by
which peace can be secured. For three years
the copperheads have insisted on peace, by
the novel way of assisting the rebels to see
med. Nothing seemed to point so certainly
to peace,, as a rebel - victory. If Jeff Davis
succeeded-in destroying the Union, quoth the .
.copperheads. peace would be restored to the
land ; but they forgot to add that it would be
peace with a chain about the neck of every
man who assisted in defending the nationality
if the Government. And finding now that
the efforts of the copperheads to achieve
peace by the victory of the rebels, are proving
a failure, the rebels are about to reciprocate
for the same purpose, in order to afford the
copperheads a plea for peace in the loyal
States. A warfare of fire and rapine and
plunder, suck as was inaugurated at Cham
bersburg, is to be carried on along our entire
border, so that the copperheads, in the sight
of the burning towns.of the free States west,
north and east, can start a ery for peace.
The work has already been commenced.

will be best understood after consideration.
Among them there are,

credits are now based on Government seauri
ties. Banks of issue and Savings banks hold
them in lerge quantities—in many cases, more
than the entire amount of their capitals—and
they hold them as the very best and strongest
investment they could possibly make. If it
were possible to contemplate the financial fail
ure of the Government, no bank would be any
better or safer. Savings banks that allow
their depositors but five per cent. can only
pay interest .or principal in greenbacks or
notes of 'State banks. Backe of issue - and dis

The Government has been officially advised
of the meeting held a Geneva, Switzerland, on
the 9th of July, in favor of the American
Union, and of the measures taken by the Gov
ernment at Washington for the abolition of
slavery, and at which an address was adopted,
offering the most ardent prayers that inspired
solely by patriotic thought, the States still in
revolt may range themselveii forever under
the Star Spangled Banner of the Union.
The people of Geneva, with all their wishes,
forward the moral - ant; biica — inie - thenceforth
liberty will be triumphant without distinction
of race, at the North as well as the South.
The Secretary of State has responded ,as
follows: "To the people of Geneva—l have
received from the American Consul who re
sides at Geneva, and have laid before the
President your fervent, eloquent and most
fraternal address to the people of the United
States. By his command, rgive you thanks
in the name of all my countrymen for the
timely and appropriate words of sympathy
and friendship which you have spoken.
Your address adds strength to the already
strong chain which binds the first Federal
Republic of America to the oldest and fore
meat Federal Republic of Europe.
The people of Switzerland may rest assured
whatever else may fail, that it will not be the
people of the 11. t. which will betray the repub

the preservation of the Constitution, the free
dom and the prosperity of Switzerland, I
have the honor to remain, citizens, your

Sixteen Counterfeiters in Old Capitol.
'LATES AND PRESSES CAPTURED.
• Wesaufgrox, Aug. 8.
Yesterday sixteen counterfeiters, who, a tel
egraphic dispatch from St Louie, dated Aug.
sth, stated had been captured, arrived here by
the 12 o'clock train, and were accommodated
in the Old Capitol. For a long time past the
attention of the Govertunent has hag directed
to the nefariouir operations of thin giing.—
Treatinry notes of the various denominations
of fifties, twenties, tens, and fives, and the fif
ty cent.postage currency, have been for a long
time counterfeited with no small success.
The detectives, who some time ago conducte d some investigations at Memphis, were not so
successful in ferreting out the perpetratori as
was anticipated. About two weeks ago Col.
L. C. Baker, chief national d teotive, assisted
by a Pip d of mon, commenced a series of
investigations. They visited St. Louis, - Cin
cinnati, Covington, Indianapolis, Newark,
(Ohio,) and Nauvoo, (Ill.) In a few days he
found very satisfactory traces of the counter
feiting crew. A deliberate mode of pro-
ceeding, and the employment of • some
degree of strategy, was necessary to
the thorough capture of the party and
the demolition of their- system. The
names of the members. however, were finally
secured, and nothing was left to do but to ar
rest them. Colone Baker therefore secured
them, sixteen in, all. and brought them yes
teroay to the city. In addition to these elev
en press a were captured, and all the plates,
together with an amount of notes, wonderful
' ly well executed and representing at last a
million and a half of dollars. The capture
of the men was made on the 29th and 30th of
'duly. The prisoners are now all solacing
themselves in the Old - Capitol, where they
will have the opportunity of enjoying the
pleasures of retrospection, and of brooding
over these sins which were , so palatable hi
execution.
