Soldiers• .Orphans.
ArrangementL are now perfected ." and ,
schools selected for the education and men
tenance of the children of those brave men
who have fallen in their country's service, and
it is the duty of School . Directors to see that
application for admission into one of these
schools is immediately made for every needy
orphan ~in their respective districts. By
promptlY performing tlis atasing duty, they
will confer &lasting favor upon the surviving
parent 'er friend of these cliildren--generally
too timid to make the apPlication—and upon
the country, by •assisting in the elevation of
those who, if uncared for, may grow up igno
rant and worthless citizens.
Applications should be correctly made out,
attested by the President and Secretary of
the board, and forwarded to the chairman of
the proper County Committee, -from whom
blanks for this purpose can be obtained.
Great care should be taken that names, dates,
4.t.c., are correctly. given.
The Chairman of the Committee should im
mediately add his certificate to these applica
tions if correct, and forward them to Dr.
Thomas H. Burrowes, Superintendent of Or
phans, Lancaster, Pa. He need not call to
gether the Committee for this purpose, as the
certificate'of the School Directors, who live in
the same township with the applicant, is the
best evidence as to the necessary facts in the
case he can get. -
Each member of the Committee, as well as
each public spirited citizen, should cheerfully
and promptly aid in securing to those entitled
to it the benefits of this just and beneficent
measure.
Further information can be obtained from
the Pennsylvania School Journal.
sherman's Late Movements
The best evidence, to our mind, that Sher;
man iT about to achieve a brilliant success, is
the feet that his movements have been, thus
far, perfectly shrouded in judicious secrecy,
alike to friend and foe. At the very moment
when the country 'vita most solicitous for the
whereabouts of Sherman and his followers—
when the affairs of the Southwest looked
gloomy—when it was questioned whether
Sherman still was at the head of an organized
army, and even hinted that he had been anni
hilated—he "turns up" in a blaze of glory,
startling the world with results such as have
never before been accomplished by any mili
tary leader. With such a leader in the field,
the country can well afford to forego all ex
pectations, and patiently wait for results. It
matters little in what direction Sherman
marches; his movements are certain to be
most disastrous to the rebellion.
"Be Firm."
We have been considerably amused of late
with the ominous words Which head this para
graph, they being used by almost every doleful
Copperhead organ as the title for long diatirbes
in reference to the causes which produced their
defeat on the Bth of November. The. Cops
are admonished to "be firm," and of course
they mill: be governed by the admonition.—
Why should they not • firm ?" After the
drubbing which they received, after the trea
son which they fulminated, and the falsehoods
which they, coined, it will certainly require
all the effrontery and brazen-faced imperti
nence which they possess to maintain their
firmness. Of one fact the Cops may be un
mistakably certain, namely, the firm determi
nation of all true American citizens to main
tain and defend the American
of
of
freedom, against the assaults alike of dolnestic
traitors, slave-masters and aristocratic foreign
sympathizers . with rebellion.
THE GREATER NUNBEE OP THE Tony ORGANS
in this State are really in a decaying con
dition, and, if left alone, will perish for the
want of patronage. But the shrewder por
tion of those who .control this, press do not
want to pass out of existence aided only by
their own internal rottenness, and therefore
such as these are tempting the Govereinent,
by heaping on those in authority the alfuse
which could only emanate from traitors, to
hurry the completion of their dOom, by ap
plying the strong arm of the law to their
cases. We could point out at least a dozen
such organs, which, by the ribaldry of their
abuse, seek to attract the attention and pro
voke the power of the Government.. The
men who control such sheets do not want.to'
pass out of existence with the odium attached
to their memories as having failed—as having
bankrupted themselves in' their efforts to ruin
the Government. They would be pleased to
have what they could call a little persecution,
that,they might have an excuse to make for.
their utter failures. We hope, however, that
the Government will have patience with these
miscreants and charlatans. Public opinion
is doing the work handsomely. Hence it
needs no -interposition of the authorities to
rid the land of these channels of treason.
EASTERN AND WESTERN ABoLITION/SDI.
When our Democratic friends are inclined to
talk about fanaticism and'abolitionism in New
England, we trust they will be so fair to that
portion of our country'as to recollect that the
West has outetripped her in this particular
respect. We think theregram? six. Western
States that have not given a larger "abolition"
majority of the popular' vote for Pregident,
than New England has. Such are the States
that Gov. Se 3 mom. and his &aims coadjutors
attempted to hound into,secesSion.

Let the President be Merciful.
We agree with a Western extemporary, that
the time, has now arrived, when the President
must treat rebellion and treason as the hellish
atrocities and crimes which they really are.—
Mercy to the nation demands this act at the
hands of Abraham Lincoln. No words can
tell the immense mischief wrought by toler
ance of treason. We leave out of the account
the awful peril escaped—the fact that the na
tion was brought to gaze into the very abyss of
perdition, with a long honored and powerful
party desperately struggling to hurl her down.
God be praised fcir the rescue'? But ought a
treason-party to have been permitted to blot
our history in this strife? Should not the
germs of such a party have been treated as
Washington and his compatriots treated torieff
in thisix day, and as the rebels have'had the
sagacity to treat Unionists among themselves?
By the reverse process, a thousand agencies
of proselytism in behalf of the traitors' cause
have been allowed to work almost infinite evil,
poisoning multitudes of minds, deluding the
rebels with false hopes, generating distrust in
even the patriotic but timid, sending recruits
do the enemy's ranks, jeoparding the peace at
home, and in a myriad ways ,distracting our
energies and foiling our efforts, while propor
tionally encouraging and strengthening The
foa Much, but not all,bf this is now past. As
to the question of the continuance of tolera-
tion and protection to-sneaking rebels among
us, the Union men of the guerrilla-cursed
States, may, perhaps, be pardoned for feeling
intensely. The hostile tongue or pen, how
ever atrocious or hateful, are more tolerable
than the bushwhacker's rifle, .scalping-knife
and torch. In desolated Missouri, the teach
ing and practice of treason are too closely as
sociated to admit any nice distinction be
tween them. 'Where the shot follows the word
we are not anxious to wait for "the overt act/
Military orders undertaking to' unite Union
men and "sympathizers"—as the traitor's
among us are euphemistically called--are most
horritte mockeries. No more of them I The
policy of placating the implacable is as cruel
as it is impossible. Our people will have no
more of it.
On this general subject the whole country
except that part not yet rescued from rebel
thraldom, has just spoken. It is impossible
to mistake the response to the Baltimore plat
form. The distinctly pronounced sense of the
country is that Mr. Lincoln is approved in his
Radical measures, while his 'ConservVve pol
icies are condemned. In accepting the Union
nomination, he pledged himself to abandon
Conservatism and cleave to Radicalism. That
pledge elected him. Only the keeping of .it
can sustain him.
"The Ladies •o 1 the South."
The assertion of an over-zealous preacher,
to the effect that the ladies of the South would
sooner or later be glad to engage themselves
as the house-maids of the people of the North,
has powerfully worked up the indignation of
certain , Northern sympathizing organs, whci
seize upon such a sentiment as the pretext for
getting off additional lamentations at the in
tended oppression of the people of the South.
Now, we are of those who consider it due that
all true women should be equally respected,
regardless of the station which they occupy
in life, so that they are virtuous, industrious
faithful either as daughters or as wives.- 7 -
What are facetiously termed the ; of
the South," however, are scarcely the 'equals
of three-forirths of the 'women of the North
who earn an honest 'living as "helps " in
northern kitchens; simply because the former
have been pampered by the luxurious ease af
forded by slavery,' Until , they are absolutely
become a bnrden' to themselves, while the
latter have been tested and purified by honest
industry, until they have become worthy of
the highest honors of their sex and the Pur
'est affection of man. , Suppose it should
really occur that manyof ".the ladies of the
South"would find homes in Northern kitchens.
—God knows such a fate for some of these
creatures, would be better than they deserve.
The great majority of these ladies gave to
treason and rebellion a countenance and
encouragement which make them resPori
.
Bible for a large share of the misery , and
desolation which now curse the -7.
The ladies of the South are composed mostly of
those who spat in the faces of Union soldiers,,
who insulted our sick and wounded heroes
while lying helpless in Southern hospitals,'
who assisted in ,the persecution of "Yankee
school marnis, and in, diyers ways, contrib
uted to the intense hatred with which the
ignorant masses of the South were taught _to
regard the free laboring people 'Of . the North.
And yet because a zealot in his fiery enthusi
. asni for his country, asserted that such ladies
Would_ eventually find homes in Northein
kitchens, many of our copperhead cotempo
rules profess to be moved with indignation,
and indulge in long outbursts of virtuous
wrath over the contemplated " tyrannies of
Lincoln?' Bah!
