THAN TEN COPIES TO ONE ADDRESS! •
We have been compelled to raisethe club enbscripti on
priOe to one dollar and fifty cents in order to save oar-
Delve' from actual loss. Taper has risen, including
taxes, about twenty-five per cent., and is still rising;
and when we tell our DemoOratialriends, candidly, that
ire 'can no longer afford to sell the Weekly PATRIOT AND
17s1ow at one dollar a, year, and must ,add fifty cents or
stop the publication, we trust they will appreciate our
position, and, instead of witkdrawini their subscrip
tions, go to work with a will to ihcrease our list in every
county in the State. We have endeavored, 'and Shall
continue our efforts, to make thipaper useful as a party
organ, and welcome as a news messenger' to every fam
ily. We flatter ourselves that it has not heti without
some influence in prodtteing the giorlons revOlution in
the politico of the'litate achieved at the late election;
and if fearlessness in the'dlicharge of duty, fidelity, to
the principles of the party, and an anxiirisdeeire to pro
mote its interests, with some expeAence and a moderate
degree of ability, can be made serviceable hereaftiti., the
Weekly reran.? AND UNION will not be less useful to
the party or less;welcome to the family circle in the fa
tire than, it has been in the past. We confidently loOk
for increased encouragement in this great entermliee,
sad appeal to every influential Democrat in the Rotate
lend us his aid in running' our supscription list up tct
twenty, or thirty thousand. 'The expense to each indi
vidual is trifling, the benefit to the party may he great;
Believing that the Democracy of the State feel the' DOI
celsityof sustaining a fearless central organ, we make ,
this appeal to them for assistance with .the fullest conff-'
&nee of success.
The same reasons wh i ch induce us to raise the price:
of the Weekly, operate . in regard to the Dailypaper, the ;
price' of which is'eleci increased. The additional cost to
each subikritier will be but irldirg; and, while we can
nit twerstiadeoXiselVes that itia change neceauwilymade
will result any diminutiOn of our daily circulation,
yet, were we cerfadn thatPsueh would, be the cones
queues, we shonld Still compelled to make it, or suf
fer a ruinous loss.' Under these circtinixtfacee we mud
throw ourselves *pen the generosity, or, rather, the
justice of the public, and abide their verdict, whatever
it may be. ,
The period for which many of our eubscribers have
paid for their paper being' oi th'e' eve of expiring, we

N. B.—The following law, passed by Congress in 1860,
defines the duty of Post; ?asters in relation to the de
livery of newspapers to club subscribers
(See /Attie, Droops 4. Co.'s edition of the Litters of 1860,
Page 8 8 , chapter 137, sectio*l..)
"Provided, however, that where packages of neireps.~
pars or periodi Gala are received at any post office directed
to one address, and the names of the club subseribera to
which they belong, with the postage for a quarter in ad
vance, shall be handed to the postmaster, he shall de.
liver the same to their respective owners.”
To enable the Postmaster to comply with this regular.
tiott, it will be necessary that be be furnished with the
list of names composing the club, and- paid a quarter's
(or year's) postage in advance. The uniform courtesy
of• Postmasters, affords the sseurinee that they will

In this ease, the cause of thevlaiinantiwas
advocated by Messrs. Lord and Edwards, of
New York, and Mr. Carlisle, of Washington—
for the United steties, Meagre. Sedgewiek and
Evans, of New York,. - MA Dana, of , litassaehiP
setts, and Mr. Earns.
Judge Grier deliyered the opinion of the
CoUrt, which. was in favor of the United States.
The following ie a brief abstract of the opinion,
covering the main points t
• There were certain principles of law Which
were applicable to all of the eases.' That a
blockade do facto actually existed by the Pre
cidentie proclamation of the 19th - or April,
1861,' . is an admitted fact, and that the Presi
dent, ;as the Chief Executive of the government,
and CollinillideiAn: Chief of the Army and
Navy, was the proper person to make such no
, tificatiop, is' abt iquestioned. TO justify the
capture of prizes, a war,nanst.extst defacto, and
the parties to be affected must hare knowledge
of the uie of this Mode or, etiernitin under the
law of nations, " - T-0 7 1*Oberite a;War, it, was .

ment. may - or may nqt culminate in r war,
Which is never dolemnly declared, beCanne.it
may mar by accident:
After dwelling:or-some time on this point,
he Said , the laws of war have their ; foundation , .
in reaeon. Parties to a, civil war exorable the
practices and Wages ef nations at war, such
as the exchange of prisoners, etc. These par
ties. at the time must be two separate bodies,
and in UMW. As in this ease a chril war iti
never publicly proclaimed nomine, its actual
existence is a fact. The true test of its exis
tence stated when the whole course of jus
tice is interrupted lir revolt or rebellion, when
. the,ootirts cannot be kept open; and hOstilities
are conducted as if foreigners were invading
,the land -
Congress cannot declare War . against a State
according to the Constitution. The President
is, bound by oath to take care that the laws are
executed, and he can call oft the militia tti aid- 1
him in so doing
.and to suppress insurrection
against,the Government; and repel• foreign in
,vasion. go has no power to initiate or declare
but fie. is. bound 'to' accept it. War;
whether foreign or domestic,may exist without `
a declaratibn, as is laid down by most writers
on the law of nations,
'As Inv} as the attack on Fort Stimpter and
the knowledge of a Government of the seceded
"States became known in Europe, England
issued a proclamation of neutrality. This was
similarly followed by other nations. After
such an official recognition by foreign Elates,

of a waxy and complaining of our tretainent

the existence of a ear, and thus cripple

• The law - of nations is the common, consent,
as Well ss . the common Beni. of 'tile world.—
Congress has approved and!ratified the sots of
the President as if they were legally done pre
vious 'to their . legislation. .Aithoz:ities were
here ,'to
froth OhiefJUstice Story by his Hon
or Justice Grier,tretnarking;"'"We are of 'opinion
the Presidqnt had a right, jure belli, to proclaim
a blockade which the neutrals were bound to
observe, not only injury to the enemy, but di
rect force,' and the destruction of property is a
consequence of war.. . Money. wealth, the Pro
ductsof agriculture, are said to be the sinews'
war.
"The laws of nations authorizes the cutting of
these sinews, by capturing property on the
high seas. Yoder our 'very peculiar Constitu
tion, citizens not, nly owe allegiance 'to the
United* States but to the States in which they
live. Hence the 'people acted as States An
rising in hostility against the United State's,
and their right to do so: is being derided by
the wager of battle. The boundary between
the belligerents is marked by bayonets. South
:of the line is 'the' enemy's territory. The
blockade is according to the law Of natione.--

The question, however,,iwae what donstitutes'

Civil war can exist only by sot of Congress in

Mr. - LABAR could not refrain from saying 7
a word. Members on the floor had voted di
reetly in, opposition to the views which they ,
had previously expressed. With all due re
spect to such men, but with a higher regard ,
1 _
to his conetitnente,he would• say distinctly
that the gentleman from Clarion (Mr. Ar.ExAN- •
non) had changed hie views suddenly, and had
told an assistant sergeant at arms' that=
The' SPEAKER called the gentleman to or
der for indulging in personalities.
Mr. LABAR charged that Mr. Anaxannas
had made statements to this assistant sergeant
at- arms of a dubious-character.
Mr. ALEXANDER said that all he bad done
was to remark that if the Tyrone railroad wee 'b
extended to Clarion county, he would have no
objeetion to vote for the relief of some taxes.
The personal discussion continued further,
amid confusion upon the floor. The intimation
of bribery was freely thrown out, and Mr.
LADAR deolared loudly that attempts had been
made to bribe his colleague, Mr. JAS. R. BOI
LIAII, member from Bucks. The Hall and the
House were full of “borers," and he had seen
members whisper and talk and argue with
these "borers," and come back into their seats
with changed views. These things were a gross
outrage upon the rights of the honest yeomanry
of the State, and resulted in the robbery of
the tax payers, the orphan and the widow. It
was time that such acts were known and.
stopped. •
The speech of Mr. LABAR was the mdst bit
ter and pointed in its assertions has
been delivered on the subject of:legislative
corruption for a number of years.
Mr, SMITH (Phila.) denied that the Tenn.
