It lasted bat eiglily-enfl days; although
there -were a large amount of legislation
done) principallyxof a local character
.There seem te be entirely too re oca local
legislation done, in this State, -especially of
late years. 'To nave general laws, we think,
'would be better, and save a great deal of
unnecessary legislation. Private business
hsa so completely clogged op oar legisla
ture for the past two or three years that. poo
lie legislation bas been greatly neglected
and almost excluded from the Legislative
Halts. Look at any other State, New York
if yoa please, and yon will find that the
great majority of the laws there enacted are
made general. This should be the policy
rorsoed in this State.
Foot tears1 we have been -in war with
the Sooth and all to no good results. We
have been proecotig a war that should

'rnnecessarily brough: opon the country by

the other in ibe Souifc, namely, the Aboli

The Abolition party intermeddled with, and
aittatrd the question of slavery, ontil the
more exci'ed end - ambition ones of the

A soot "Quotas A reply to Governor
Certirt' letter opon the sobject of cnoipat
ing quotas has ben sent to the President by
Attoriiey General Speed, in which the Gov
ernor's suggestions are refused and bis ar
guments attempted to be overthrown.
Th doenmenf is very long and very ob
core. ' The period of service, it is conten
ded, is the proper'way, onder the law, of
computing quotas, and not that of estima
ting the number of men in service For
instance, if Pennsylvania has fifty thousand
one year's men at the time the quotas are
assigned for a draft, and Massachusetts bas
fifty thousand Belgians and negroes in for
three yean, Pennsylvania" will get credi'
lor only fifty thoassnd, while Massachusetts
will be credited with one hundred and fifty
thousand, by tnutiptfing her men by the
terms of service. It is easy, under these
rireotaktanees, to see bow oar State bas

sop porting this role.
air. President l presume that when the
question on concurrence or oon-concor-
renre it pat, do one will1 be permitted to
give the reasons for his vote; I therefore
desire now to state mine. VVber. I am
called opon to vote I shall say no. My rea
om are these : 1. I do opt think that ac
cording to the teachings of Scriptore. the
simple relation substring between i mas'er
and a slave necessarily involves sin. 2. I
charged, then, as pro-slavery in favor of
slavery as a system My' reply is I am a
Methodist of toe old school, "as much as
ever opposed to the -institution of slavery ;"
no more a'nd no less than our fathers were
when I became a member.
'4 Should i: be alleged that the limes
have changed that once "God winked at
this evil, but now commands all men ev
erywhere to repent and reform," I a lis we r ;
God never winked t sin, but bore with
sinners. It the relation necessarily involv
ed sin we should not besr with it. S, TUe
political etatos of slaver) in this country
-can malce no change of my moral views of
this question. I view it now as I have al
ways done since I have seriously thought
of it at all. 6 Should ii be said rhat every
denomination bas a right to make .such
terms of .membership as it pleases I an
swer: If we were a mere voluntary asso
ciation this is true. But Christ builds his
own church, and she has only to determine
what is revealed touching (he fitness of a
candidate for membership, and dare not
exclude for any cause but sin. 7. 1 could
have voted for the role as recommended by
the minority of the Committee on Slavery
at the late General Conference, stating when
the relation is not sinful. Should ir be in
sisted that such would be false legislation,
and not according to Scripture, because the
Bible says: "Thon shall not kill," leaving
it to the Administration lo say when killing
is sin ; I answer : Oar Lord, in quoting this
law says : Tboo shall do no murder," and
thns our only guide explains itself. If the
General Conference bad said in a fool note,
or in the chapter on slavery, that the pro
posed amendment only '-forbids slavery
when it is necessary, I could have voted
.for the proposed change.' This kind of leg
islation is precisely what has been done by.
the National Congress Jn proposing to the
Stale Legislatures a change in the Consti
tution of the United States that slavery
shall be prohibited "except for crime "
This is what oorehurch has done in chang
ing the General Rule on the ue of intoxi
cating liquors; it forbids "drinking them,
unless in cases of extreme necessity."
There might have been legitimate legisla
tion of the same kind on slave holding. 8
1 am aware it may be thought that the pro
slavery surroundings of my recent field of
labor shaped my vie ws. Perhaps so but I
think not. Would it bo generous to say
that the political surroundings of our Bish
ops and Church and Conference, have
shaped their views? Certainly a great
change has taken place within a few years.
I am inclined to believe it would be more
popular, where I have lived and labored, for
the last two years, to vote lor than against
he change. And I am fully persuaded that
now with these my brethern, whose favor
I cannot to highly appreciate, I should cast
a much more popular vote to say are than
han nay. But having carefully' examined
to tnow, I shall fearlessly do what I deem
right. Believing, however, that my vote
will neither prevent the passage of the law,
oor prolong the existence of ao institution
against which the chorch of my choice has
ever given ber testimony, and which I now
believe is tottering to it fall, least my vote
Irom principle alone, and shall say at
proper time no.

Wc lately had the pleasure of spending a
portion of an afternoon with the venerable
ex President, James Buchanan, at his borne
at "Wheatland." At the age of 84 year
he is in ine enjoyment of good health, with
bis faculties unabated, and his spirits ap
parently as fresh and joyous as when we
last saw bin?, the night before he sailed for
England as minister to the Court of St.
James, twelve years ago. We have met no
man that evinces a profounder interest in
the affairs of our country than Mr. Buchan
an, and none who is more perlectly posted
in all the political movements of the day.
Even the local politics of the various states
seem to lie, as in charts, before bis mind
To those who are despondent of the ultimate
redemption of oor country from the Aboli
tion spoilers, a visit to "Wheatland" will
prove a great relief. . Mr. Bocbahan enter
tains no doubts of the fiaal triumph of the
Democracy, and of the consequent salva
tion of our conatry ; and be gives such rea
sons for this faith, as will go far to remove
the doubts of the-most desponding. For
onr own part we have never feared for the
ultimate triumph of troth and liberty, nor
doubted the overthrow and punishment of
Lincoln and the partizans in his despotism.
Bat we know of many who do doubt a
visit to Wheatland wonld go far to reassure
them. ' Mr. Buchanan has prepared a docu
mentary hiscory of the( latter part of his .ad
ministration, which will be published the
coming summer. It will thoroughly ex
plode thewbole arsenal of lies which has
supplied powder for the Republican party
for foor years, by the publication, of d oca
men te, figures and facia which will not and
cannot be disposed. Soch a history is most
timely. It will do much to onnjask the
hypocrisy and crime of the despots in pow
er and to save the country Old Guard.
PtasoM B&owiri.ow an abolition ianf (?)
in a public lecture at Nashville, said ol tbe
ncoA-en' Vice President : 'I therefore
pronounce Johnson, here in his borne, an
unrnitizatedUizr and calumniator, and a vil
lainou etAoard, wanting tbe nerve to stand
op to his own words. Iunlienlaiingfvoprm
Icep tlie Record !
Fiona ibe very hour that Abraham Lie
coin and bis thieving horde of Abolition
disonitnisls took possession of the Govern
ment, four years ago, the men who did not
agree with them in tbeir insane and treas
onable opinions have been subjected to in
salt, arrest and imprisonment. Thousand
have been cast into dungeons, many of
them to die, without being told why they
were arrested, or who made information
against them. Any Abolition scoundrel
could, if he fell disposed, have hie neigh-,
bor sent to prison, without a word of ex
planation. Squads of armed soldiers have
been stationed in various quiet and peace
able communities, for no purpose what
ever except to assist ''loyal thieves" to op
press their fellow men. These things have
been scbmiiled to for foor years, and per
haps will have to be submitted to for foor
years to come. The men who but a few
years ago denounced the American Bag,
and spoke of it as a ''flaunting lie," and
petitioned Congress for a dissolution of the
Union, and now prate about their "loyalty,''
(and constrne loyalty to mean love for the
negro,) are still at the head of affairs fend
appear as vindictive, false and devilish as
ever. Persecution will continue, noiw'nh
standing Congress has by a very decided
vote, condemned the arbitrary manner it.
which the administration has pursued and
punished,-without - law, its political oppo
nents.
There may be no remedy note, but the
day wMI come when the perpetrators of
t he?e, outrage will feel the. vengeance of
an outraged people. Let every man there
fore, who has been or may be unlawfully
arrested or maltreated by Abolition min
ions, keep a record of the same. -Let him
take dovrn the names of bis captors, the
names of the men composing the military
court, and also keep carelnl da'es. All
these arrests and mork trials have been in
violation of law and Ihe Cor.sti'otion and
the men engaged in ihem, from first to
last can be prosecuted and sent to the peni
tentiary. Tney are all frorc the President
down to the prison keeper, guilty of un
lawful outrages, which should not, and we
hope will not be tolerated a day longer
than can be- avoided. The day if coming
when Democrats will have satisfaction, and
when law ar.d not brnte force will aaa'm
govern. We repeat, then, let those who
suffer by the persecutions ot the ml minis
traiion. remember the men who were in
strumental, in (hose persecutions, awl at
the proper time seek "sweet revenge."

Tbefioercss of inhumanity. .
"Of all the lessons derived from the his
tory of human passions," sars LaValette,
"the mcst important is the utter impossi
bility which the best men will always ex
perience of-eiopping if they once led into
the path of error " If, a few years befori
they were perpetrated, the crimes of the
Revolution could have Seen portrayed to
those who afterward committed them, even
Robespierre would bave recoiled with hor
ror. Men are seduced, in the first instance,
by plausible theories; they advance, un
consciously, from errors to faults, and from
faults to crimes, tilt sensibility is destroyed
by the spectacle of guilt, and the most sav
age atrocities dignified by the name 'of State
policy. If, five years ago, many of oor general-
bad been told of .the atrocities tbey
would commit on helpless women and chil
dren the outrages ibey would perpetrate
opon the. civil rights of the citizen, they
wonlJ each exclaimed, "is tby servant a
dog that he should do this thing V But fa
miliarity bas bred contempt, and they go
on, step by step, day by day, perpetrating
wrongs and outrages that are a stain upon
our civilization withoot the slightest re-,
morse, and. animated by the fanatical idea
that they are doing the nation some service.
The laws ot humanity are to be regarded in
civil war as well as in a war between two
stranger nations; the rules of the interna
tional code apply equally lo both. The re
lations of the parties ought to bo those of
ordinary war, which hoirtanity demand;
yet we have seen Federal Generals giving
up whole towns lo" plunder and conflagra
tion, the soldiers ocder them becoming
mere jpanranders. It is no' to be supposed
that these men were not -in possession of
the ordinary traits of humanity ; bu. in the
progress of devastating, brutal, civil war
their feelings have become naturally blunt
ed, an til now they perpetrate acts at whiclr
the civilized world stand agast. The re
cently manly and defiant letter of Wade
Hampton to Sherman reveals a history of
outrage and oppression that finds its best
commentary in the silence of the Federal
general onder its reproaches, and his failnre
to carry out the threats that he mad. Tha'
its statements were true no one can doubt
who has read the letters of ibe press corre
spondents attached to his army.' It is, how
ever, the pressure of external circumstances
which nliimately produces such, inhumani
ty, as ranch as inhumanity produces the
difficulties of public affairs. E?en Butler
and Tnrchin, at the outset of this war, were
credited with some better instincts which
are common to humanity ; little did the)
expect to.be fahQned into the brutes am'
beasts they have proved, themselves :o be.

lution. It was no, doubtless, with Marat

Vice I' resident Johnson.
Fron the Pittsburg Gme'te, Republican.
We have hitherto refrained from com
menting upon the fact that the Vice Presi
dent disgraced bimse f and '.he nation by
appearing in a state of intoxication at the
time of his induction into office and inflict.
inz upon his herrera a maudlin, drunken
speech, not because we hoped thereby to
hide the unpleasant fact opon oor readers,
or shrink from condemning the grievous
fault committed, but because we hoped that
a little delay would bring us some mitiga
tion of the report, and render the transac
tion lees disgraceful than was at fir-t stated
We have wailed, however, in vain ; and
now that the tacts are beyond dispute, we
jnib with ihe Republican press of the
country in telling the Vice President that
having utterly disgraced himself, subjected
his party to the keenest mortification, and
made his country a laughing stock in the
eyes of the world, the least reparation he
can make is to resign. After this exhibi
tion of himself, he cannot occupy that place
any longer with honor and credit.. His good
name is lost, and he cannot regain it by
holding on to a place he has disgraced. If
be attempts to hold on to it he will thereby
show himself insensible lo shame, and
therefore all tbe more unfitted for thai high
position.
Bu what if he does not resign 1 Then
let him be impeached, or reached in some
other way by tbe action ol the Senate.

U. S. 7-30 L OAA-
By authority of the. Secretary ol tho
Treasury , the undersigned has assumed
the General Sub-cription Agency for the
sale of Uiiil'd States Treasury Notes, bear
ing seven and three tenth per cent, inter
est, per annum, known as ihe
SEVEN THIRTY LOAN".
These Notes are issued onder date of "
August 15th, 1864, and are payable three
year from that trine, in currency, or are
convertible at the option of Ihe holder into
U. S. Six per cent
ftoiaD-iiu.iniXf,; nous
These bunds are how worth a premium
of nine per ren., including gold interest
from Nov., which makes the actual profit
on ihe 7-30 loan, at current rates, inclu
ding interest, about ten per cent, per an
num, besides its exemption from' State and'
municipal luxation, which adls from ens to
three percent mote, according to the rate lev
ied on other property. The interest i
payable semi-annually by coupons attach
ed lo each note, which may be cut off and;
sold to any bank or banker.
The interest amounts to .
One cent per day on a $50 note.
Two cents " " 5100
Ten " " " 50 "
20 " " " " mooo
1 " " " $5000 " '
Notes of all ihe denominations named
will be promptly furnished upon recept of
subscriptions. This is the
ONLY LOAN IN MARKET
now offered by ihe Government, and it is
confidently expected that its superior ad
vantages will make it the
Great Popular Loan or the People.
Less than $200,000 000 remain unsold,
which will probably be disposed of within
the next 60 or 90 days, when Ihe notes will
undoubtedly command a premium, as has
uniformly been the case on closing, the
subscriptions to other Loans.
In order that citizens of every town and
section of the country may be afforded fa
cilities fo r taking the loan, the National
Batiks, State Banks, and Private Bankers
throughout the country have generally
agreed lo receive subscriptions at par.
.Subscribers will select their own agents,
in whom they have confidence, and who.
only are to be responsible lor the delivery
of t'-ie notes lor which thev receive orders.
