The Way to Waihington.
The Mayor of Baltimore protests against the
Government sending troops through that city
to Washington, and the Governor of Maryland
requests the President not to transport troops
across the territory of the State, and between
them they would have Washington left utterly
defenceless, for the accommodation of Jeff.
Davis, and to ,quiet the apprehensions of the
people of Maryland. Mr. Seward very quietly
informs Gov. Ricks that Washington must be
protected, and that Gen. Scott will order the
transportation of ealdiers by the most conve
nient route. Cien. Scott has accordingly issued
the following general order and confided its
execution to a man who will use all the means
at his command for that purpose :
QSNERAL ORDERSNO.2
IFNADQUARTSRS OF TEN Am,
WASHINGTON, April 19, 1861.
The Military Department of Washington is
extended so as to include, in addition to the
District of Columbia and Maryland, the States
of Delaware and Pennsylvania, and will be
commanded by Major-General Patterson, be
longing to the volunteers of the latter State.
The Major-General will, as fast as they are
mustered into service, post the volunteers of
Pennsylvania all along the railroad from Wil
mington, Delaware, to Washington City, in
sufficient numbers and in such proximity as
may give a reasonable protection to, the lines
of parallel wires, to the road, its rails, bridges,
cars and stations. WINFIELD SCOTT.
By Command :
E. D. TOWNSEND, Assistant Adjutant-General.
The Object of the Government.
In the midst of the prevailing excitement we
must not lose sight of the object which the
Government has in view in calling out the mil
itary force of the country. It is to put down
an armed combination which has levied war
against the United States. On the part of the
Federal Government the appeal to arms is
strictly defensive. War has not been declared
against any State of the Union or against the
loyal people of any State—and will not be.—
The measures of the Government are strictly
constitutional and protective. A combination
of individuals in certain States of the Union
have rebelled against its authority, set its laws
at defiance, organized a revolutionary govern
ment, seized federal property, and turned their
batteries upon an almost defenceless garrison.
They are mustering armies and threatening
to take the Federal Capital by assault. They
have levied war upon the United States—and
the Government is forced to accept the alterna
tive of abdicating its authority, and submitting
to the inauguration of anarchy, or of protect
ing itself by suppressing this formidable in
surrection.
The object of the Government, therefore, in
summoning the military power of the country,
is to restore its imperilled and defied authority,
and nothing more than this. It is not to lib
erate the slaves or subjugate the slave States.
Slavery has nothing whatever do with this
contest, except so far as it may have been one
of the causes of the rebellion. But the cause
of rebellion is one thing—the object of Go
vernment in suppressing it is another thing.
Had the combination now seeking the over
throw of the Government alleged any other
reasons for their conduct than those growing
out of the slavery question—the tariff for in
stance—the federal authorities would proceed
against them precisely as they are now doing.
The Government asks nothing more than-obe
dience, and will enforce nothing more. It does
not seek to alter the status of any of the States
with reference- to slavery, or to invade any of
the reserved rights of the States.
We are aware that a certain class of per
sons whose hatred of the South is only
equalled by their ignorance of, and con
tempt for the obligations of the Constitution,
have sought to produce the impression that
this is to be a war for the extermination of
slavery. While making the greatest display
of devotion to the Union, they would trample
upon the sacred rights upon which the Union
is founded and cemented—the right of each
State to regulate its domestic concerns and to
exercise all power not expressly delegated to
the Federal Government by the Constitution.
These are rights which dare not, cannot be
invaded without a total and radical revolution
of the form of government which we are now
seeking to uphold, and not to destroy. Thou
sands of brave hearts are now raarching under
the flag which is the symbol of constitutional
Government, not to change the form of that
Government or to assail any right which it
guarantees, but to protect, confirm and re
establish it.
Let ns bear in mind that the Government is
not waging war against any State of the Union,
or against the people or institutions of any
State; but is determined to protect its pro
perty and authority from aggression, and to
suppress a traitorous combination of
,individ
nate who have levied war against the Union,
and usurped power by terrorism. In suppress
ing this insurrection the Administration has
avowed its intention not to invade States, or
destroy private property unnecessarily. It.
object will be to establish and enforce the power
of the Government, by defeating its enemies,
and afford loyal citizens in the sweeded States
that support and protection which will enable
them to return to their allegiance without fear,
and , thus restore the Union upon the basis of
the -Constitution. This is an object 'worth
fighting for.
Alex. H. Stephens on his way to Richmond.
The New York Tribune of yesterday centains
the following statement of a fugitive from the
South:
A gentleman whose respectability is abundant
ly vouched for ; and who has resided in North
Carolina some time, has given us the following
interesting details of his journey from Fayette
ville, in that State, to this city. lie left
Fayetteville on Sunday last, after having been
served with the following notice :
Yon are hereby notified that; your name is
enrolled in the Town Militia company ; you
will therefore govern yourself accordingly, and
observe the law. By order of the Captain."
Being a Massachusetts man, and not relish
ing the idea of serving against the Stars and
Stripes, our informant immediately took steps
to leave, and did so that night. At Fayette
ville, there is a United States arsenal for con
struction as well as storage, which contains
about 43,000 stand of arms, made at Spring
field, some Minie rifles, beside a large number
of cannon, and other munitions. There was a
garrison of 48 United States soldiers, under
command of Major Anderson, cousin of Major
Robert Anderson. Tney were loyal. It was
the intention to eieze this arsenal on Monday
if they could, and probably would.
At all the stations crowds were assembled,
and the Secession fever ran high. At Warsaw,
where our informant took the train, be found
Alexander 11. Stephens, who was on his way
to Richmond. Nothing was eeen or heard of Te . f.
Davis. At nearly every station Stephens spoke.
The capture of Washington was the grand idea
which he enforced, and exhorted the people to
join in the enterprise, to which they heartily
responded. This was -the only thing talked of.
"It must be done !" was his constant exclama
tion. At Welden a man, supposed to be a
Northerner, was whipped and tarred and feath
ered just before the train arrived. There was
a large crowd, deeply excited, which Mr. Ste
phens addressed. Vigorous measures were on
foot to arouse and arm the people, and they
were answering to the call as one man. The
enthusiasm for Jeff. Davis was intense.
The Rebels are engaged in erecting batteries
in the rear of Fort Monroe, with a large force,
everybody that could work, negroes and white
men, having been pressed icto the service.—
Northerners were leaving. The commanding
officer of the Fort was confident that he can
stand against any force the Rebels can collect,
the Fort having recently been reinforced. Gen.
Beauregard was at Richmond, and the talk
was that there was . a large body of men there.
One of the dry-docks at Gosport was blown
up.
LETTER FROM PHILADELPHIA.
Correspondence of the Patriot and ilnion
PB/LADELPEL/A, April 25,1.881.
Since my last was written, what a wonderful
change has come over the status of this country!
Blood ! ISlood ! resounds through our streets as
the rallying cry of those who are to avenge our
country's insults. Men tear away from family ties,
and mothers and sisters pray God's blessing upon
.husbands and brothers as they go forth to battle.
Every brow is knit, and every hand is clenched to
strike at treason! A few days ago no man could
have even dreamed that the people of this city
would be a unit for war—but so it is. It is a war
of redress—defence--of an insulted, outraged flag,
and hence all hearts beat high and wildly, and
every tongue cries for vengeance.
The activity now pervading the department of
supplies of clothing, ice., for our gallant volunteers
is truly astonishing.
At the Frankford arsenal nineteen hundred wo
men, four hundred men, and upwards of two hun
dred boys, are working about thirteen hours per
day, making shirts, haversacks and uniforms for
our soldiers.
The Girard House is converted into a vast sew
ing factory. The large dining rooms, and the east
and west parlors, are appropriatad to the cutters,
whilst every room in this vast building is occupied
by one or more sewing machines. Everything is
systematized and rendered most effective. Some
idea may be formed of the efficiency of these opera
tions when I inform you that they now average
over nine hundred complete outfits per day. As
fast as the requisite number of uniforms to equip
a regiment are finished they are dispatched to the
rendezvous of the regiment for.whom made.
Many of our moat tobiouable ladies are eon
stoutly in attendance at this place, superintending
and otherwise assisting operations. There is lit
tle talking done, and that little is yea—yea ; nay
—nay.
A. number of our churches hare thrown open
their lecture rooms to.the females of their emigre,
gations to make under-clothing, lint, bandages, etc.;
and the busy hum in these sacred aisles presents a
4 ( brining contrast to the solemn quiet which perva.
ded them a week or two ago.
The united operations of these several institu
tions above named result in about eleven hundred
complete uniforms per day.
Nearly twelve hundred uniforms were sent to
Pittsburg on the 23d, and will be worn by a regi
ment commanded by Gewsral Nagely, who will be
mustered into service at your place, perhaps, be
fore this appears in print.
I saw this morning a number of the Baltimoreans
who were expelled from that city for their Union
sentiments. Their description of affairs there is
heart-rending, and it makes it clear to my mind
that it is the imperative duty of the Government
to seize and hold that pity at every cost. Upwards
of four hundred of these refugees will meet to.
night and enroll themselves in a regiment and ten
der their services to the Governor of this State.--
They state that the banks have removed their bul
lion to New York, and that many private families
have cent all their plate out of the eity- I cannot
write more now. May God defend the right!
HORRIBLE TRAGEDY.—An old gentleman
named Peter Smith, who resides in the suburbs
of Jeffersonville, Ind., was attacked on the Jef
fersonville ferry boat, at an early hour on Sat
urday, and killed, by a young man who is said
to be tie natural son of the' deceased. The
young man at first cut the old gentleman with
a bowie knife, and then shot him through the
bead. The cause of the attack, it is said, was
an injury done the young man's mother many
year's ago. The homicide was arrested and
lodged in jail in this city. His name is Francis
Marion Smith, and he resides in the vicinity of
New Albany. —Louise e Journal.
LARGE CATTLE 'ream—The largest cattle
train that ever passed over the Lebanon Valley
and East Pennsylvania Railroads, went through
last Sunday night week on its way to New
'York from'the West. It consisted of fifty-two
oar,, containing 764 head of cattle, weighing
999,( W) pounds; six cars. containing 724 bogs,
woighinv 107.200 pounds; and two cars filled
with 337 h'o:l4 of sheep, whole weight was
32.000 poutav,. The freight on the above, from
Chicago to Now York, was $8,279.03.
The steamer Botstona was fired into on Fri
day evening last, while passing Maysville, Ky.,
by the secessionists of that town. The excite
ment alld Lay been very hi g h against the
Bosrona, because she brou ght a company of
soldiers from Portsmouth.
Suicios.—A Frenchman nhaled Denny, in
Cincinnati, became troubled because a favorite
son had enlisted, and on last Friday evening
blew out his brains with a pistol.
LET Us KEEP OUR OWN COUNSELS. —We trust
that the precedent of secresy, established in
fitting out the' late expedition from New York,
will be followed during the campaign. If it. la
designed to send a force to occupy a particular
position of importance, their arrival there
should be the first intimation of the fact to the
world. The importance of this, in a military
point of view, is obvious.—Boston Advertiser.
KENTUCKY MONEY THROWN cur... The bank
ers of Indianapolis threw out the notes of all
the Kentucky banks on Thursday last. The
reason assigned is that there exists a fear of
Kentucky joining the Southern Confederacy,
and thus creating difficulty as to the redemption
of her notes. Virginia funds are treated in
the same way.
A PROPOSED LOAN.—The New York Tribune
states that a suggestion has be,en made to offer
a loan to the Government, of $15,000,000, to
be divided pro rata between Boston, New York
and Philadelphia. Such an expression of con
fidence in the stability of the Government
would be a new proof of the universal feeling
which controls the North.
A National Patriotic Fund has been formed
in New York, on the, plan of the English Patri
otic Fund, in the time of the Crimean war.—
Gentlemen of high standing have the matter in
charge.

If the State of Kentucky assumes the posi

Two Massachusetts men, who have been re

morning, having been forced to fly North.
They report that on Sunday 500 South Caro
lina troops passed through Thomasville North.
Along the entire route they saw Southern men
drilling. Frequent demands were made for
Northern men, whom they were desirous of ex-
ecuting
At Weldon, North Carolina, they saw a man
engaged in a struggle with a mob, who were
endeavoring to bang him, and as the cars left
his fate was unknown
They passed Norfolk, and report the Navy
Yard and vessels completely in ruins. At
Fortress Monroe they saw a large number of
men upon the parapets.
The Southern troops are all marching to the
mouth of Aquia creek, where it empties into
the Potomac, where a grand concentration of
the Confederate army will take place, prepara
tory to marching upon Washington.
They passed Harper's Ferry, and suppose
that 4,000 men 'Fere encamped there. The arm

By the Cumberland Valley train yesterday
we have no later news from Baltimore; but
passengers who came by way of York, having
left Baltimore on Wednesday evening, report
the city as quiet, and the apprehensions of an
attack quieted since the troops have left Cock

public buildings Are guarded, and enlistments
were going on. Every person at all capable of
doing military - duty, from fourteen to sixty
years of age, was required to enrol himself.
A clerk in a wholesale house, who left on
Tuesday, reports all the wholesale houses closed.
An effort was made to enrol the Northern clerks,
when most of them escaped.
The stampede from Baltimore in every direc

The Philadelphia Bulletin of yesterday gives,
upon the autarity of a gentleman of that city,
the particulars of the interview between the
President and the Baltimore committee last
Monday. He thus reports the precise nature
of Mr. Lincoln's expressions on that occasion:
The Committee presented themselves before
the President, and entered upon their mission.
After some preliminary remarks, Mr. Lin
coln said : " Gentlemen, you have come here
to ask peace on any terms ; such a desire, on
such terms ; is not like the course of Washing
ton or Jackson. They (the rebels) attacked
Fort Sumpter. You attack troops sent to the
Federal Government for the protection of the
same and for the defence of the lives and prop
erty of the inhabitants of this city. My inten
tion never was to attack Maryland, but to have
those troops, as I said before, for the protec t
Lion of Washington.
"Now, gentlemen, go home• and tell your
eople that if they will not attack us, we will
not attack them. But if they do attack us, we
will return it, and that severely. Those troops
must come to Washington, and that through
Maryland ; they can neither go under it, nor
can they fly over it, and THEY SHALL COME
THROUGH IT."

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.-A horrible calamity
occurred at the oil well of Little & Myrrick, on
the Buchanan Flats, near Franklin, on Wednes
day. A vein of oil was tapped, and a spout
thrown up 200 feet in height. A crowd collected
to see it when the oil took fire, and an explo
sion took place, killing four persona instantly,
whose bodies were consumed in the flames.—
Mr. Bowser, of the firm of Bowser, Mitchell
& Brown, was burnt so that he died at 3 o'clock
A. M., - on Thursday. Thirteen were dead at 4
o'clock P. M., on Thursday, and ten were not
expected to live twenty-four hours. Thirty
four persons in all are known to have been
burnt, and as there were many strangers pre
sent, it was supposed many more have perished.
A son of H. Gardner, of Michigan, was burnt
to death, and a portion of his body was recov
ered. The legs and arms-, and a portion of the
head { were all consumed,.•' His remains were
brought down on the Le Clare, in charge of Mr.
M. H. Kelsey, who is conveying them to the
lad's parents in Michigan. Mr. Rowser, imme
diately after the calamity occurred, dispatched
a man for an officer and made his will, in which
it is stipulated that $50,000 be given to the
poor of his county, $2OO to each of the two
men who rescued him from the fire, &c.—those
and other features in the will showing him a
man of benevolence. There were four wells
consumed in the 'vicinity, and also a barn be
longing to Mr. Buchanan. Goble and Gardener
lost 75 barrels of oil. The owners of the oil
at this well lost 250 barrels. Buchanan's loss
was 106 barrels. The Rice well lost 125 bar
rels. The Wadsworth well lost 200 barrels.
For the above details we are indebted to Mr.
Williams, Smithfield etreet. lie was on the
ground when the affair occurred, and gave us
a graphic account of the whole transaction.—
Pittsburg Chronicle.
TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-A terrible
railroad accident occurred on the Cleveland
and Pittsburg Railroad, Friday night last at
Deep Run, about five miles above this city.
The train from Pittsburg was coming down at
the rate of thirty-five miles an hour, when the
Deep Run bridge gave away. The locomotive
passed entirely over the bridge, leaving only
two wheels of the tender, and so great was the
speed of the train that all the cars passed over
the gulf and ran a considerable distance beyond.
One unfortunate passenger, a Mr. Sanford, of
the firm of Sanford & Riggs, Wellsville, was
killed. A rail from the track was forced up
through the car, and passed through the body
of Mr. S., pinning him in a horrible position
to the roof. Those of the passengers and train
men who were uninjured, cut the unfortunate
man loose, but he died in less than half an
hour. Mr. Spaulding, of this city, and Mr.
Davenport, of the Ohio River salt company,
and as many as half a dozen others, were
slightly, but not seriously hurt. The cars were
all badly broken up and damaged. It is thought
that 'nothing but the speed at which the train
was moving saved the passengers from destruc
tion.—Wheeling Intelligencer.
RUMOR ABOUT THE CUSTOM Housz.—lnfor
mation entitled to credit was lodged at the Post
Office, last night, to the effect that an order
had been issued by Gov. Letcher to one or more
of the State military companies here to take
and occupy the Custom House. The informa
tion was premptly acted upon and put in pos
session of the Mayor and other trustworthy
parties, and despite all precautions to make
secret movements, was soon spread like wildfire
through the city. IR less than an hoar hun
dreds of people congregated about the Custom
House to tender their services for its defence,
and tile utmost excitement prevailed. When
it became known, however, that the city au
thorities would take the matter in hands and
use all necessary precautions for the defence
of thq property the sensation cooled down and
the people quietly dispersed. It was reason
ably apprehended from the movements which
the Governor has been lately making in other
parts of the State that he had attempted the
same programme here.— Wheeling Intelligencer,

Sarsaparilla
FOR PURIFYING TILE BLOOD.
And fur the speedy cure of the following complaints:
Scrofula and Scrofulous Affections,such
as Tumors, Ulcers, Sores, Eruptions,
Pimples, Pustules, Blotches, Boils,
Mains, and all Skin Diseases.
OAKLAND, Ind., 6th June, 1859.
J. C. Ann & CO. Gents 1 feel it my duty to ac
knowledge what your Sarsaparilla has done for me.
Raving inherited a Scrofulous infection, I have suffered
from it in various ways for years. Sometimes it burst
out in Ulcers on my hands and arms; sometimes it
turned inward and distressed me at the stomach. Two
years ago it broke out onmy head
and covered my scrip
and ears with one sore, which was painful and loathsome
beyond description. 1 tried many medicines and several
physicians, but without much relief from any thing, in
fact, the disorder grew worse. At length I was rejoiced
to read in the Gospel Messenger that you had prepared
an alterative (Sarsaparilla), for 1 kne iv from your reputa
tion that any thing you made most be geed. 1 sent to
Cincinnati and got it, and used it till it cured Inc. I took
it, as you advise. in small closes of a teaspoonful over a
month, and used almost three bottles. New and healthy
skin soon began to form under the scab, which after a
while fell off. My skin is now clear, and I know by my
feelings that the disease has gone from my syst em. 1 01 l
Can well believe that I feel what I am saying when I tell
you, that I hold you to be ono of the apostles of the age,
and remain ever gratefully. Yours,
ALFRED B. TALLEY.
St. Anthony's Fire, nose or Erysipelas,
Tatter and Salt Ithe aaaaa aa Scald Read,
Ringworm, Sore Eyes, Dropsy.
Dr. Robert M. rreble writes from Salem, N. Y., 12th
Sept., 1359, that he has cured an inveterate case of
Dropsy, which threatened to terminate fatally, by the
persevering use of our Haesaparina, sand a dangerous
_Malignant Erysipelas by large doses of the sante; says
he cures the common Eruptions by it constantly.
Bronchocele, Goitre or Styellea Neck.
Zebnion Sloan of Prospect, Texas, writes L "Three bot
tles of your Sarsaparilla cured me from a Goitre —a hid
eous swelling on the neck, which I had suffered from
over two years."
Letteorrbeea orwtiles, Orarlan Tumor,
Uterine Ulceration, Female Diseases.
Dr. J. B. S. Charming, of New York City, writes; "I
most cheerfully comply with the request of your agent in
saying I have found your Sarsaparilla a most excellent
alterative in the numerous complaints for which we
employ such a remedy. but especially in Jiutmle Diseases
of the Scrofulous diathesis. 1 have cared many inveter
ate eases of Leucorrhosa by it, Mill some where the com
plaint was caused by 'ulceration of the uterus. The ulcer
ation itself was soon cured. Nothing within my knowl
edge equals it for these female derangements."
Edward S. Marrow, of Newbury, Ala., writes, "A dan
gerous ovarian tumor on one of the females in my family,
which had defied all the remedies we could employ, has
at length been completely cured by yoir• Extract of Sar
saparilla. Our_ physician thought nothing but extirpa
tion could afford relief, but he advised the trial of your
Sarsaparilla as the last resort before cutting, and it
proved effectual. After taking your remedy eight weeks
no symptom of the disease remains."
Syphilis and Mercurial Disease.
NEW ORLEANS, 25th August, 1859.
Du. J. C. ATER: Sir, I cheerfully comply with tho re
quest of your agent, and report to you some of the effects
I have realized with your Sarsaparilla.
I have cured with it, in my practice, most of the com
plaints for which it is recommended, and have found its
effects truly wonderful in the cure of Dinersai and Ater
curial Disease. One of my patients had Syphilitic ulcers
in his throat, which were consuming his palate and the
top of his month. Vim Sarsaparilla, steadily taken,
cured him in Live weeks. Another was attacked by sec
ondary symptoms in his nose, and the ulceration had
eaten away a considerable part of it, so that I believe the
disorder would soon reach his brain and kill him. lint it
yielded to my administration of your Sarsaparilla; the
ulcers healed, and lie is well again, not of course without
some disfiguration to his face. A woman who had been
treated fur the same disorder by mercury was suffering
front this poison in her bones. They had become so sen
sitive to the weather that on a damp day she suffered ex
cruciating pain in her joints and bones. ,she, too, was
cured entirely by your Sarsaparilla in a few weeks. I
know from its formula, which your agent gave me, that
this Preparation from your laboratory must be a great
remedy; consequently, these truly remarkable results
with it have not surprised me.
Fraternally yours, G. V. TARDIER, M. D.
Rheumatism, Gout, Liver Complaint.
INDEPENDENCE, Preston Co., Va., COI July, 1859.
C. Area: Sir, I have been afiticted with a pain
ful chronic Rheumatism fur a long time, which bullied the
skill of phynicions, and Muck to um io spite of all the
remedies I could find, until I tried your Sarsaparilla. One
bottle cured me in two weeks, and restored my general
health so much that 1 am fan• better than before I Was
attacked. 1 think it a wonderful medicine. J. ITEM.
Jules Y. Getchell, of St. Louis, writes: "I have been
afflicted for years with an c.fliction of the Liver, which
destroyed my health. I tried every thing, and every thing
failed to relieve me; and I have been a broken-down man
for some years front no other cause than derangement of
the Liver. lily beloved pastor, the 11ev. Br. Espy, advised
me to try your Sarsaparilla, because he said he knew von,
and any thing you made was worth trying. By the bless
ing of God it has cured me, and has so purified my blood
as to make it new matt of file. I feel young again. The
beet that can be said of you is not half good enough."
Schirrus,Cancer Tumors, Enlargement,
Ulceration, Caries and Exfoliation of

A great variety of mules have been reported to us where
cures of these formidable compininfs bare resulted front
the use of this remedy, but our space here will not admit
them. Some of them may be found in our American
Almanac, which the agents below named are pleased to
furnish gratis to all who cull for them.
DyspepsiaiileartDisease,
Neuralgia
Many remarkable cares of these affections have been
made by the alterative power of this medicine. It stimu
lates the vital functions into vigorous action, and thus
overcomes disorders which would be supposed beyond its
reach. Such a remedy has long been required by the no
cessities of the people, and we are confident that this will
do for them all that medicine can do.

FOR THE RAPID CURE OF
Coughs, Colds, Influenza, Hoarseness,
Croup, Bronchitis, Incipient Con

This Is a remedy so universally known to surpass any
other for the cure of throat and lung complaints, that it
is useless here to publish the ejdence of its virtues. Its
unrivalled excellence for muffs 'and colds, a its truly
wonderful cures of pulmonary - disease, ha made it
known throughout the civilized nations of the earth.
Few are the communities, or even families, among than
who have not some personal expedence of its effects.--
zome living trophy in their midst of its victory over the
subtle and dangerous disorders of the throat and lungs.
As all know the dreadful fatality of these disorders, and
as they know, too, the effects of this remedy, we need not
do more than to amine them that it has now all the vir
tues that It did have when making the cures which have
won so strongly upon the confidence of mankind.
