WEDNESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 22,1864.
Suspension of Business In the Telegraph
0/liee.
In order to afford those employed in the
TELEGRAPH. office an opportunity to do honor
to Thanksgiving Day, there will be no evening
edition on Thursday; and to make certain
necessary repairs to the machinery in the
press room, there will be no morning edition
on Friday. Should, however, any very im
portant intelligence be received from any of
our armies now so fiercely pressing the traitor
ragamuffins, the same will be displayed in
slips on our bulletin board.
Thanksgiving Day.
In obedience to the proclamations of : the
President of the United States and the Gover
nor of the Commonwealth, to-morrow will '1;)
observed as a day of general thanksgiving in
all portions of the Union, where the flag of
the nation and theltslaws of the Governinent
are honored and obeyed. The facts which
appeal to our hearts and our minds for thanks
giving are manifold and clear. God has been
good to us as individuals and as a nation. Had
He not been so, our granaries would have been
empty—our fields and gardens would have
been blasted-- and the whole land a deso
late waste, where misery would have re
sponded to the howls of misery, until eter
nal death would have become a blessing to the
people. As it is, the nation was never so
prosperous—and in all this God's hand and
guidance are as clearly distinct as is the noon
day sun in a cloudless sky. He has given us
the harvest and the health to gather it, He
has given us the intelligence • and the enter
prise so to control all our national inter
ests as to make prosperity obedient 19
our command. He has been our cloud
by day and pillar of fire by night: To the
toiler a help, to the weak a strength, to thl
faithful a cheer, and to all who seek in justice
and right, the success of noble deeds, a coun
sellor and friend . Oh ! that the nation would
but truly refer it 4 cause to God's arbitrament!
The end of the terrible conflict for national
life would immediately dawn in a. peace which
would make freedon as eternal as religion on
earth !
I—We sincerely trust that Thanksgiving day
will not merely be made• an occasion of glut
tony, of debauchery andriotous intemperance .
It is not necessary that the nation should
cram its maw with meats and fruits to testify
its thankfulness for prosperity in trade and
victory in war. Far more fitting will it be if
the rich give unto the poor—if the healthy in
body and soul cheer the sick—if the strong,
stretch forth their hands to the weak, and
thus in charity and fraternity, exemplify
God's will of peace on earth. We trust, that
every heart will be made glad to -morrow. NV
pray that all sorrow may leave the mourning,
at least for a season. And that joy may visit
all abodes, to cheer and dry the tears of the
widow and the orphan, to lift up the faint
hearted, to stimulate the prosperous to gen
erosity, to nerve the valor of our brave sons
and fathers on the battle field, to light up the
gloom of the desolate, and fit us all in the
future for our duty to God, to one another
and to ourselves !
An Important Decision in Reference to
the Military Bounty Laws.
An important decision was recently deliv
ered by Judge Long, in the Court of Common
Pleas in Lancaster county, on the subject of
the military bounty laws. The facts involved
in the case are as follows: Two citizens of
Manheim township, having furnished accept
able substitutes for themselves in the military
service, made issue to the effect that, having
thus contributed what they deemed their
quota, they should be rightfully and legally
exempted from the payment of the tax pro
vided for by the act of 25th March, 1864, to
pay bounties to volunteers. Xhe suit was
brought by the Board of School Directors of
Manheim township, who, in compliance with
the provisions of •the law, were authorized to
levy and collect such a tax. After a thorough
discussion of the question involved, by able
counsel, the court decided that the defend
ants were bound for the payment of the tax,
and accordingly ordered judgment to be en
tered for the plaintiffs. Judge Long's deci
sion is a very clear legal paper, and we are
sorry we have no room to give it in full in
cur columns.
Tim Louisville Journal, which supported
M'Clellan zealously and from the start, now
declares it the duty of every man to support
the Administration -whose policy has been af
firmed by the people. This is becoming the
almost universal expression. The World, and
journals nearer this vicinity, as exceptions
clamor for keeping up the opposition, and for
drawing the party lines; but there is but a
feeble show of support of such a policy. There
are certain journals and leaders, who if they
are not partizans are nothing. The moment
they cease to be such, they sink out of sight.
This is precisely what the World and a few
adherents fear.
MEETING OF ELECTORS. —The electors of
President and Vice President meet on the
first Wednesday (the ith) of December, at the
capitols of their respective States, to cast
their votes, which are sent to the President
of the Senate, (the Hon. Hannibal Hamlin,)
and counted before both Houses of Congress
on the second Wednesday (the Bth) of Feb
ruary, 1865.
THE Secretary of the Treasury has had a
rod in pickle, it is said, for the gold gamblers,
for several days .past;,which is pretty certain
to fall upon their heads with stunning force
ere many days elapse.
Mint INEVITABLENEGBO. —The negro divided
the country and broke up the Union. Now
he•is -going to divide the South and restore
the Union.
The Results of Polities and the War
We have frequently stated, that the result
of the election would decide the fate of the
rebellion—and that the fate of the rebellion
would forever fix the doom of the Democratic
party. The election is now over, and we have
a result at once sublime and magnificent.
The effect of that result, in the re election of
Abraham Lincoln, will prove the speedy end
of the rebellion. Already the most sagacious
men in the South confess that longer to pro
long the war, will only be to add to the
misery of the South, while it cannot possibly
contribute to the success of the Confederacy.
Even before the election took place, the more
candid of the rebel press admitted that the
hopes of the Confederacy depended more on
the success of ll'Clellan than that of Lee.
And now the same journals declare "the game
is up." All that. is left the conspirators is to
fight for personal escape, or such a settlement
of the quarrel with their Government as will
save their necks from the halter. Never will
Jeff Davis, either by the aid of his armed as
sassins, or the sympathy and comfort of his
Northern and European allies, succeed in
establishing a despotism in the Southern
States. He has managed for four years to de
lude and oppress the people of the South.
But the spell is now broken—the charm of
independence gives way before the stench of
treason—and already the misguided masses
of the South sea that their only escape from
utter ruin is the immediate acknowledgment
of the just authority of the National Govern=
ment. The re-election of Abraham Lincoln
is the result which has produced this change.
It fixes the doom of the Confederacy—and
with the passing away of the Confederacy as
a belligerent, the end of the Democratic party
will have esime. In all this history repeats
itself. When the Old Thirteen Colonies
achieved independence, and by their valor
and virtue, won the recognition of the world.
the tories, as a party, ceased to exist, and
the names of its leaders are regarded with
execration even to this late day by. all who
dearly love their country. When a second
time, in 1812, Great Britain was taught the
folly of contending in armed fight with the
American people, with the triumph of our
flag, the old Blue Light Federalists ceased to
exist as a party. The odium of Federal treach
ery in 1812 still exists. In politics there is
nothing so disgraceful as to be called a Fed
eralist. It is equal, almost, to being termed a
traitor. And now comes the repetition of
history. As our fathers triumphed over the
British enemies of the Union, all who
ted or sympathized with England, passed out
of the memory and regard of the American
people. In like mauer, as we become victori
ous over treason and rebellion, will the party
in our own midst, which sought to give aid
and comfort to the conspiracy, pass out of ex
istence. Peace could not be established other
wise. There could be no security for the
honor and glory of the Government, if its
worst enemies were allowed to exist in its very
midst unrebuked and unpunished. The loyal
men of the land might as well settle the war
and leave Jeff Davis in undisputed authority,
as to put an end to the rebellion by recogniz
ing the organization of the Democraiic party,
and thus claim they had finally established
peace. Both must, both will pass out of ex
istence, in order to render the Union secure
and the Government pure for all time to come.
"Permanent Organization."
We notice, in our advertising columns, a
call for a meeting of the "Republican Invinci
bles" of Harrisburg, to effect "a permanent or
ganization." It will be remembered, that the
Invincibles were organized during the last
Presidential campaign, by the young men of
the city, to assist in the re-election of Abra
ham Lincoln, and at the time we supposed
that the association would be dissolved at the
end of the campaign. As we have already
stated, the Invincibles are now summoned to
meet at their hall,for the purpose of effecting a
permanent organization and we most heartily
endorse this move meet; as one essentially
worthy the support and co-operation of the
young men of the city, as well as the
emulation of every patriotic young man
in the Commonwealth. The necessity which
induced the first organization of the In
vincibles still exists, and will continue to
last while we have a country to adore, a gov
ernment to honor and preserve. Indeed, tho
idea of organization to defend the Govern
ment was never fairly appreciated by the
people and particularly by the young men of
the free States, until rebellion, with all its
ruthless passions, burst upon the land and
deluged it with the purest blood of our best
citizens. Had we of the loyal been as well
orgaiized to resist as the traitors of the dis
loyal States were to prosecute rebellion, the
fight could not possibly have been prolonged
until now. The slaveholders were for long
years training for the work of treason in
which they are now engaged; and now, in
order to frustrate all further attempts to
organize rebellion for any purpose in any
part of the land, it is most commendable
to observe that our young men are prosect
ting the work of organization. It does not
of course follow that such organizations need
partake of a military character. If they suc
ceed in preserving a pure political feeling,
and assist in disseminating sound political
sentiments among the young men thus asso
ciated, the country will of course be benefit
ted by always keeping uppermost a healthy
and incorruptible feeling of loyalty. And by
making these organizations permanent, we in
like manner insure, so far as the strength of
those thus associated is concerned, the per
manency of the Government.
—We repeat our most hearty commendation
of this movement, and pledge those engaged
in thus seeking the consolidation of an un
filching loyal feeling in our midst, our untir
ing co-operation and support. The Govern
ment can only be perpetuated by the cultiva
tion of loyal adherence to its working and
national pride in its purposes. And the best
way to do this, is to follow the noble example
of the Republican Invincibles of Harrisburg,
and, in all parts of the Union, organize per
raaue?/tIY.
Robert J. Walker.
We can safely assert that in the colum:
of the TELEGRAPH We have never hesitated tp
accord th., proper credit and urge the nee::.-
sary reward of those patriotic and brave Dem
ocrats who stood shoulder to shoulder-wilh
the Republican leaders in the effort to save
the country from the sworn destruction of tl
slaveholdi ug traitors. But in doing this, there
is a higher principle to" serve than that of
mere political or personal gratitude. We must
be careful, while thus acknowledging re
warding the loyalty of those Democratic lead
ers who are with us, that we do not adopt
theories and notions while thus recognizing
men, which might prove of the most fatal in
jury to the country. Hence, we join the ma
jority of our loyal cotemporaries in protest
ing against the reported contemplated ap
pointment of Robert J. Walker as Secretary
of the Treasury. We have no objection to
Mr. Walker as a man. His loyalty and his
patriotism are true as steel, and in the proper
position he would be of great service to the
country. But as a political economist,
with his notions of free trade, which, when
he was at the head of the Treasury dur
ing the Polk administration, almost proved
fatal to the vital interests of free litho;
—with all this against him, nothing but
disaster could attend the committal of the
Treasury portfolio to the control of
Walker. Hereafter the great interests of free
labor must be guarded with jealous care.
Every avenue affording means of encroach
ments upon its growth and prosperity must
be sealed, and America become thoroughly
Americanized. Robert J. Walker is not the
man to do this--not the man to invest with
the care of our finances—not the man to en
force our revenue laws, and not the man to
deal with the interests of American labor
under any circumstances. Hence, we most
earnestly hope he will never be offered a seat
in the Cabinet. And yet we trust he will be
allowed all the honor he has fairly earned by
his devotion to his country in the hour of its
danger.

The Dutch Gap Canal Nearly Completed
Arrival of Captured Deserters.
There is information from City Point, dated
yesterday inorniug, that but a short time will
elapse before the Dutch Gap Canal will be
opened.
About fifty deserters from OW armies ar
rived at City Point on Monday from the Val
ley, having been taken prisoners by General
Sheridan in his late campaign: The larger
number of them were substitutes, and had de
serted and joined the rebel army. They were
sent to the Shenandoah Valley, as there was
less likelihood of their being identified if cap
tured.
A court has been organized at City Point
to try them, or which Gen. Collins is Presi
dent. The heavy rain storm of the past four
days, in that quarter, is over.
The Navy Department is advised that the
rebel schooner Badger, from St. Marks, bound
to Havana, was taken possession of by the
United States steamer Adele, on the 6th inst.,
off the middle entrance of St. George's Sound,
Florida. Twenty-Ive packages of cotton were
captured with the. vessel. Her captain threw
all his papers ovfirboard.
NEW YOE 7 , Nov. 22.---The United States
steamer Union, froth the East Gulf Squadron,
reports the health of the fleet as good. The
Adele was about to leave for Philadelphia. and

cruise.

Nearly two weeks have elapsed since dirret

General Sherman, at least a mouth since,
fully informed the proper authorities at Wash

rebel accounts, have thus far been carried
into effect, with a bright promise of success
throughout the present campaign.
