M’Tjcink/ * KOWaRD H\ onl'-r "f uk* Cbeirnieo THE RIGHT MAN AT LAST. The extremists have at last hit upon the right man; Gen. Phelps, whose head quarters are on Ship Island, Miss., issu ed a proclamation the other day to the people of the “Southwest,” in which he advanced genuine emancipation doc trine. lu addition to this, he gave the people or that benighted region his dec laration of belief, in which some things occur, far surpassing anything ofa simi lar character that we have seen. For instance, this stupendous General says; “Wo behove that every State that has been admitted as a slave Htato into the Union, sinco the adoption of the Constitu tion, has been so admitted, in direct viola tion of the Constitution. We believe that the Elave States which existed, as such, at the adoption of our Constitution, are, by becoming parties Lo that compact, under the highest obligations of honor and mortality to abolish slavery.” This is Geu. Phelps’ belief, the fath ers of the Constitutien who admisterod into the Union the Slates of Kentucky ®od Tennessee, and whose admission was sanctioned by Washington and Ad" ams, knew nothing of their duties if this ‘Col. Pluck” knows anything. Now, tins crazy blatherskite, like the rest of his kidney, has butasingle idea in pros, secuting the war against the rebels; and that is political preferment. The strug gle among this set is not to suggest the best means of ending the rebellion, but to see who can go farthest und say the most absurd tilings in relation to slavery Fremontf and Cameron, and that talk ing dandy John Cochrane, will all have to look sharp after this new aspirant for abolition honors. This mischievous proclamation is not intended, by Pnelps, to be of any possible account where it was issued; it is intended lor KasLern consumption, for the liberal people of his dear New England. The most absurd portion of this most absurd production is lho following; “ By referring,” ssys Phelps, “to the history of ihe past, wo And that one cf thu most destructive wars on record, tnat of the French Revolution, was originated by the attempt to give political character to an institution which was not “usceptihlo of political character. The (-hureh. by being endowed with politic id with id con tents, its schools its immense landed wcatUi, its associations, secret and open, became the ruling power of the State, and thus oc casioned a war of more strife and bloodshctl probably , than any other lear which has desolated the earth, Slavery is Btill less susceptible of politi cal character than was the Church. It is as tit at this moment for the lumber room of the past as was in the’monastery, the landod - ealth, the exclusivo privilege, etc., of the Catholic Church in Franco. It behooves us to consider, as a seif-governing people, brod and reared and practised in the habits of self-government, whether we cannot, whether we ought not to revolu tionize slavery, out of existence, without the necessity of a conflict of arms like that of the French Revolution. ” Thißkind of a proclamation to the peo. pie of Louisiana, :i majority of whose citizens belong to the religion alluded to, is pretty smart in Gen. Phelps. In order to show the eil'ect this proc, lamation produced upon the officers under the command of Gen. Phelps, we seleot the following extract from a let ter of the Ship Island correspondent of the New York Herald-.' “On the evening of the 4th of .Decomber, a number of the officers of the brigade and others of us who werei.n board thu Consti tution were astonished to learn that Gen. Phelps had prepared a proclamation to the people of the Souihwesi. It waa road to us and mused very groat dissatisfaction and indignation, nothing but a sensn of duty and regard for discipline preventing the strongest expressions of disgust. “The next day the substance of the docu ment spread like wildflre among the offl. cers oi the command and ot the naval squadron. The remark of overy officer whom I heard speak of it was that they had not come down here to tight for the abolition ol slaverys hut for tho integrity of the Union. “The assertion in the opening clause of the proclamation, that it is an of ‘tho motives ahd piinciples try which my Command wilt be governed,’ is do Ren. Phelps the justice to believe, uniuUn tionally so) untiue; on tho contrary, it is the prevailing opinion that if the procla mation is indorsed by the Alministralion, Di. W i" * lo much dissatisfaction in Gen. Phelps’ brigade, and very likuly to the resignation of nearly, if net all of his offi cers. In the naval department lho feeling is even Btrongtr, and many of its officers have no hesitancy m declaring their in. tention Of resigning ,1 Uu , j, reclamation is sanctioned by the Cabinet. . “If the proclamation declared an intan. tion of the most vigorous prosecution of the'war,’and even asserted tha; if the abo lition of slavery resulted as a consequence of such prosecution, the army of the South west would accept it as ihe legitimate fruit of the foul tree cf secess.on; it wouid have met with unanimous approval and indorse ment in both- branches of the service at Bhip Island; but as it notv reads, they feel themselves much aggrieved and misrepre sented.” We are pleased to record the completion of the telegraph line from Pittsburgh to franklin, Oil city, &c. I'he line com- j monced business yesterday, the office is at ! Uur friend He rry I Shim thfc popular landlord of this Home i has added this accommodation to those j already afforded to bis numerous friends in tMr#eetion. I ; afcjfut-' ■ BEATEN AGAIN, lhe Abolitionists in Congress do uol appear to be getting along quite eo swim ruing.y as they anticipated at the begin ning of the session. There have been three test votes between them and the Administration party in the House, and they have been beaten from ten to six teen votes each time. The last defeat they sustained was on Monday; Lovejoy moved for the adoption of his confiara* tion resolution and it was quietly refer red to the Committee on the Judiciary by a vote of 77 to 07. We infer from this vote, and the two previous ones al luded to, that the destructives are not going to carry things with a high hand, and that the country will survive the effect of their present madness. DEC. 30, SUSPENSION OF SPECIE PAY MENT. An iuipoitant movement is on hair anmng leading Bankers originating i New \ ork, to precipitate another sus pension. There may be a necessity for this, but when it. conies, as it surely must, it will fall like a clap of thunder upon a hopeful people, who have led to believe the government slmijg outside of Banks; at least noeiiort would be made just now to establish a mum moth national institution at the expense oi every State Bank. A suspension now, and years may elapse before resumption takes place. EXPOSUBE OF COEBUPTION The American peoplenre about to b< astonished with the exposure of the most enormous and systematic game of plun der ever perpetrated upon any tax-pay ing people. The committee appointed to investigate certain charges against Fremont, have extended their investiga tion to other departments, ami the re sult is that others, some of whom were quite loud in their denunciations of all rascality in the public service are quite asguiltyas hois. In fact Fremont ap pears to have been imposed upon, but the others alluded to went at the bu3i ness systematically, and with the care and caution of accomplished scoundrels, endeavored to coyer tracks to avoid detection. The Philadelphia' Inquirer publishes a porlion of the testimony, and in allud ing to it speaks as follows : “ If the people of the United States have heretofore been ast ;n;shi-d at the develop e menla of speculation, peculation, plunder and malfeasance that h&vo fr.*m time to time been exposed by the newspaper press during the '■ rogrers of the war against the rebellion, they will experience a still mure intense emotion when they o rue to r.*ad the exposures made by the Van Wyck Committee of Investigation. In reading it, words of burning indignation spring instinctively to the lips, bu. we forbear w use tbom until tbo record of thrsj infamous transactions is spread more fully before the country. *■ Peculation and fraud are not more honorable in Washington, New York or Pennsylvania than in Miss-un. Kvery official and contractor should be helj to a strict account. The sp n.u'at "rs and peru lalors who expect to realize fortunes by robbing the public treasury, are w t mum the enemies of the Union as Daws, Flovd or Cobb. They uro but following the -x. ample of those il!u*tri«u* ihw o; wb-. rob' bed the nation for tbe bur. t lit of iiutei iion."
