Accordingly , they have formed a secret association in ' Ftrict imitation of the "Kuow-N)thing" organization ,uuder the ppcoious and sound ing appellation of tho "Luzerne Count y Lo'jul Union Lcuguc," of which a Mr 1 HOSE A 0 All PENT 10 It is President.

Thus, in a short time, the constitution j of "Tho Loyal Union of tho State of Pennsylvania'' was framed ; Mr. CAP RON, the author, elected rrtsidentof the ' Legislative Loxjal Union arganizulion, and Mr. II. V. HALL, Corresponding i Secretary. It further appears that, about that liuio, tho county council of Dauphin was organized by tho election of DAVID MUMMA as President, and GEORGE DERGNElt, Corresponding Secretary. There is no doubt Mr. Carpouter is now travcliug in the various countis of tho Com monwealth to organize secret couucils therein, and to levy his fee of five dollars.

Wo give to the public such articles as aro best cal culated to lay bare tho objects of tho or ganization, By article VI. it will appear that it is intended to take a snap judgment upon the pcoplo by uot revealing tho ticket until the morning of tho election. Artiolo VIII. binds tho members of tho association, who aro under oath, to sup port tho ticket formed by tho Committee whether they like it or not. Articlo IX. is an ingenious way of put ting up tho oflico to tho highest bidder, which will efficiently exclude tho poor dev ils who have no money.

If Ihoro wore nuy evidence wanting of tho desperation of tho Republican party, this effort of their loaders to revamp and assume all the abominations of Kuow Nothingism, long since repudiated by tho sober second thought of the people, would prove the hopeless straits to which they arc reduced.

When the storm of vituperation (hall have passed, ana tho noisy and pretentious patriot of tho day shall have shrunk away from the dangers which now impend ovor us, tho last hopo of tho nation will rest upon your oourago aud firmness, grounded upon an intelligent political faith, which will bo equal to the terrible ordeal, and tbo salvation of your country will bo wrought out by your own hands.

Redman, of Company II., Missouri Volunteers, has been guilty of nn outrage in St. Louis, whiob proves him to bo ono of the most impudent vil ains on record. On Thursday morning he went to Benton Barracks No. CO, and informed a Wisconsin Captain, named SoathwortU, that General Ilallcck bad cent him for a detail of eight men, to bo immediately placed in his command, for the execution of business of great moment. He gavo his name as Reed, but presented no written document to tho Captain, who very thoughtlessly complied with bis de mand. Sergeant "ReetV and squad moved with military dignity down Grand Avenue, Morgan street and Broadway, to the bank ing house of G. S. Hammer & Co., No 331 on tho oast side of Broadway, be tween Cherry and Wash streets. Tho officer placed several of his men at the door to prevent tho intrusion of outsiders, and entered with the others. Only Mr. Hammer was in the store, and he was en gaged in counting some fifteen thousand dollars which ho bad in piles around him behind tho counter. "Reed" promptly told the banker that ho had Gen. Ualleck's order for his itnmediato arrest. Mr. II. asked for what I but Heed replied that he did not know, ho had simply to tako him in custody, and no doubt wrong would not bo done him. Mr. H. said he would place the money in the safe and go at once, but the officer told him he must leave the money as it was. Mr, II. hastily seized a bag containing 7000 in gold, and also snatched a pile of bills, hurriedly threw them into a small vault in the interior ot his largo safe, and shut the door. This locked the door of the vault. He then attempted to close tho remaining doors of tho safe, but a bayonet was inserted be tween them, and he was collared He at once resigned tho key, and was then al lowed to shut and fasten the doors. Reed gave him in charge of his men, and bid them to take him to Broadway Garden, to bo guarded by the soldiers there till fur ther orders. The party proceeded up Brotidway on a car, and Reed, with a sin gle sentinel at the door, attorapted to uu lock the safe. In this he failed, but in dignantly uci-patched a messcuger to Broadway Garden with an order that the piUoner be brought back a3'" At tho Garden, Hammer was received by tho commanding officer without, a sua picion that lie was not properly in military custody, and in tho full belief that his commitment was fully authorized. The requisition for his relum wasoboyod with alacrity. In half au hour after his arri val, ho left the Garden, again guarded by the six soldiers, and was taken in a street car down Broadway. In the store ho was compelled to take the key and unlock the safe. In his eagerness the robber sergeant failed to notice the interior vault, and henco it remained closed. "Reed" next ordered the seven men to escort the cap tive back again, and saw them safely off. Leaving tho door locked and the senti nel standing outside, he proceeded to the Restaurant, No. 317 Broadway, and soon after returned in citizen's clothes. Ho then entered and dismissed tho sentinel,' who of course, obeyed orders and moved j off. A party of curious gazers ou tho j sidewalk could look directly through tho wiudows into tho store ond obscrvo all tho: seargant's movements, lie took several ! piles of bills from the safe and tho roar of the counter, and a larce ouantitv of, ...

Haminor & Co , had been violating some law and wcro bo ing summarily dealt with in conscqucnco. Tho amount taken was S2280 10, in United States Treasury uotes, Illinois cur rency, and gold nnd silver. Mr. Hammer's partner, Aiho was absent, on hearing of his arrest, mado inquiries of the military officials, and soon found that thcro was a mistake somowhoro. An investigation took placo, nnd Redman's performances oamo to light. A searoh was immediately instituted for him, and ho was finally arrested ou Friday morning, just as ho was getting on board tbe Alton and Chicago cars.

JfA prominent gentleman, and a rrr- pnblicsn office holder, who has just re turned from Cincinnati and other western points, reports a general development of intense anti Abolition sentimouts in all quarters of tbo West, siuoe the Wendell Phillips riot in Cincinnatti. ne s-ays vio lout denunciations of Phillips and all of bn kind aro heard among all classes, and that thread are made against many Abo lition members of Congress, that if they show themselves before the people of the West, they will fare worse than Wendell Phillips did. This feeling, bo reports, is based on the popular rcpuguancc to "ne gro equality,'' towards wbioh tho Aboli tionists are supposed to be tending no white man being so poor in his own esteem at uotlo feel himself 'hotter than a nigger.' Plant Peas Deep. Tho theory re cently advocated of planting pea3 very deep in tho earth, in order to prolong tho bearing capacity of tho vines, has boon well tested in Williamstown, and found to be correct. A farmer told me that he plowed a furrow beam deep, than scattered the seed pass at tbe bottom ; after which he turned a deep furrot? upon them with his plow, covering them if possible, to the depth of twelve or fourteen inches. Thoy pushed their way up through the thick mas of earth very soon, and instead of turning yellow at the bottom and dying after the first gathering, they blossomed and boro until he was tired of picking tho pods. If such a result will uniformly bo realized from the plan, pea culture may bo tnaua moro profitable than hitherto. lt is a favorite allegation with Ab olitionists that Democrats act slavery abovo tho Union. Wo havo the record of the Abolition faction in Congress that they set anti-slavery abovo ibo Union, but in sist that one and the other shall be left just where the fratners of the Constitution left them, and just whcro President Lit coin, in his recent special mesaagj, said they belonged ; with tho States recp.i, ively.
