PITTSBUROHI
SATTBDAN MORNING, FEB. 6, 1864
THE FATHER-AND SON
The , Pittsburgh Gazette, yesterday,
drew a parallel between the character
of Major WurrE., now in Libby Prison,
and that officer's father, much to the
disparagement of the latter. The Major
wrote a letter more, than two months
ago (that is if he wrote it at all) resign
ing his.seat in the Pennsylvania Senate;
but his father, with that tender solici
tude peculiar to fond and doting parents,
retained the letter in the hope of his
sotea'release, and his being able to take
his seat in that august and austere as
semblage, the Senate of Pennsylvania.
Alluding to this our neighl or in a fit of
genuine patriotism remarks:
,"The son understands, much better than the
father, the lofty sentiment expressed by the poet
in this grand couplet :
I , llore realjoy neal..t.ca, exiled, feels,
Than Cresar with a .`,.nale at his hreis?'
Without desiring to dispute the rest
whi;.ll his modern ItiAncELLus feel ,
Ly being confined in a Southern prison,
we are desirous of inquiring to whom
does the Gazette allude, a a having the
Senate of Pennsylvania "at his heels?'
The small caps and italics are signifi
cant, and we are therefore desirous of
knowing for whom they are intended.
Unless th 6 upper branch of our Legisla
ture is dangling at the heels of some one,
the point of the comparison becomes en
tirely lost, at least to the unsophisticated
multitude.
But we presume that the Gazette did
not- allude to any one, particularly; it
merely wished to impress the reader
with its own self-sacrificing spirit,
which; let us assure it, was and is quite
unnecessary. Every discriminating cit
izen, knows that the patriots who eon
trolthat paper would, at any time, much
rather be incarcerated in a loathsome
Soutehrn jail, there to live upon the the
vapors of a dungeon, than to luxuriate
upon oysters and soft shell crabs, with
the Pennsylvania Senators employed to
wait upon them. We have heard of sev
eral cases of noisy fellows airing their
patriotism and loyalty, and threatening
annihilation of any who dared to ques
tion the infallibility of old ARE'S bulls
against the come!, but these persons are
not of the Gazette. In, and about, that
loyal establishment, there are to he found
no Postmasters, United States tax asses
sors and collectors; but, on the contrary,
they are men of public virtue, who, like
ElAstartos, are prepared to die with pleas
ure for their country's good. What is
death, in the estimation of such patriots,
when given in defence of one's country,
or what is more sublime, still, the cause
of Abolitionism? With them there is
nothing serious in mortality at all to be
compared te the true glory of their
country. In the estimation of such lofty
an& self-sacrificing spirits, how wretched
must the whining JERRY SNEAKS and
UAL& HEAPS, appear who are constantly
in search of crumbs from the Adrninis
tmtioi's/table. These PECKSNIFFS,
who, because of constitutional meanness,
are evprready.
"To'crook the pr vent hinges of the knee,
That thrift may follow fawning;"
and who are as hollow in their pro fesions
of patriotism, as they are destitute
of manhood, find no countenance with
the loyal men who control the Pitts
burgh Gazette. A thousand times rather
woukt our neighbor be left to linger in
a Southern prison than to have ill-got
ten pnwer over the Senate of our State,
like unto that once wielded by imperious
CEA.se.n over those of Rome. The suf
ferings of the man in the iron mask, with
all the attendant horrors of the Bastile,
were. nothing, in comparison to what a
genuine Abolition will profess himself
ready to suffer, if the profession will
bring with it the thrift to which we
hate alluded.
DISLOYAL WOMEN.
It is very well known that the interest
ing and dashing lady of the White
House, has several relations in the rebel
service ; and, it was charged, in the
early stages of the rebellion, that she
used to give them important information,
which lead to serious disasters to our
cause. We were among the many ad
mirers of Mrs. Luccomi, who never, for
a moment, doubted her loyalty ; but we
confess to having our doubts upon the
subject now. Every one has heard of
FERNANDO Woon, a most inveterate
copperhead, and withal "as mild a man
nered man as ever scuttled ship or cut a
throat" Well this "sympathiser with
treason'' gave a party the other evening in
Washington, which the lady of the Pres
ident attended and was one of the most
gay and festive persons in attendance.
Not only this, but her Excellency actual
ly sent to Mrs. WOOD, from the White '
House Conservatory, the flowers used to
make joyous and fragrant that interest
ing occasion. What do the Abolition
papers - of this city think of this ? Is it
not enough to make an Abolitionist's
blood boil, to think of Mrs. LINCOLN not
only associating with sympathisers with
treason, but strewing ournational posies
at their feet. Senator SystmEn should '
see to this ; let Lira introduce a hundred
and fifty resolutions, full of Latin and ;
classic quotations, and investigate this
Vastness. Or let the next Abolition
Cotssional ilium , inquire into it, and
appoints special committee to thorough
ly investigate and expose this semi-'
treason., Persons are generally judged ,
bx the eomiaany they keep, and this con
nection
between Mrs. FERNANDO WOOD I
and the chtirming lady of the President,
is enough to arouse the apprehensions of
all truly loyai men. Where is the 'Tres

WESTERN PENITENTIARY
ANNUAL REPORT.
The Report of the I sapeetors for 1863,
is published, and apkars to be a com
prehensive and satisfactory document..
Some of its developnients gill 14babli
astonish the un scrupnlonn9o*ari*
who were so busy laSUstuintneriind fall
in circulating false ;' , 01:1 scandalous ru
mors about the Eamnig4tnent 'and the re
bel prisoners, &c. The forbearance of th e
Board of Inspectors and the Warden,
under the systematic aspersions to which
they were subjected, was very credita
ble to their patience, but perhaps did not
much flatter these gad-files of the press,
who thought they could provoke some
sort of defence or retaliation.
The Report shows 228 prisoners in con
finement on Dec. 31, 1863 ; 6 died during
the year, and 89 were received, and 89
discharged—these are the State Prison
ers of course.
The administration of the Prison takes
just pride and pleasure in the monetary
condition of the Institution. But let
them speak for themselves :
We have great satisfaction in Calling your at
tention to the financial condition of this institu
tion. It is now entirely freelfrom:peeuniary lia
bility, lots some little sash means and a fair
amount of stock and manufactures on hand.
his favorable situation renders it unnecessary to
salt upon the counties this year for any contri
bution to the support of the prisoners. In
•reased prices of all commodities, and an active
demand( or laine of our products, will partially
•tcwunt for this gratifying result, but a large
share of the credit of it is due to Judicious man
mant of the Warden.
The follov,ing extract from the War
den's report, will further elucidate the
matter contained in the above extract
front the Report of the Inspectors!
In taking charge of the Prison, December 6.
IS b. 1 found it Lunch embarrassed la its finances,
arid 'the debt to a considerable amount, with the
necessity of calling upon the counties (compris
ing the Western district) for *)7,696, to meet the
expenses arising out of that year's business.
In 1869 I reducetithe call upon the counties two
thousand four hundred and fifty dollars and sixt y - -
eight cents; in 18643, one thousand live hundred
and five dollars and fifty-eight cents; in 1861,
seven hundred and twenty-eight dollars and lift- -
eight cents; In 1662, nine hundred and sixty
dollars and [went y-seven cents, and in the pres
ent year. 1863, 1 hate the satisfaction of Inform
ing the Board, that the debts of the Prison are
all paid in full, therefore the necessity to call
upon the counties to make up balances against
the Prison no longer exists, retie: lag the several
tax-payers of a portion (at least) of the burthens
that prey so heavily upon them.
Thelnspecsors express their confidence
in the separate system of confinement
adopted in Pennsylvania—which confi
dence is strengthened by their official ex
perience
A succinct account of the r,ception
of the 118 rebel prisoners sent to the
Prison by the War Department, the con
ditions upon which they were taken, and
how they were, and arc now, treated, is
given, float which we make the follow
ing extract
No one was allowed to see the prisoners ex
ccapt by written permission of t len. likooks
Parties were 'designated by the military au
thorities to supply the rebel prisoners with such
articles as were not iaterdkred, subject to the
supervision of the Warden. The rates to he
charged for maintaining and guarding the
prisoners were tinnily arranged to the satisfac
tion of both parties.
An attempt to escape was made by some of the
rebel prisoners on the evening of the Bth of Nu
d ember, which was evidently the result t i long,
ingenious and daring ;.preparation. The details
would be tedious and perhaps uninteresting, and
we will only remark that the scheme was
pletely and suddenly frustrated by the vigilance
and courage of the Warden and some of his
assistants. There were as before stated, one
hundred and eighteen of these rebel prisoners
sent here on the fah of August—at the date of
this Report one hundred and eleven of them re
maim sevenhav 'rig been taken nwayby order of
the War diepartim at.
After the attempt to escape, the indulgences
rented in the notes of (len. linooKa were,
military orders, materially restricted—new and
stringent regulations were made, and increased
care and vigilance enjoined 1:puo those has ing
military supervision of the tvlel prisoners sad
their cells—if greater Late were possil Ie
By the answers made by the President
and Warden to the Senate Committee
appointed to examine the condition of
Institutions to which the State appropri
ated' money, we learn that the Western
Penitentiary has so far cost (for build
ing) $445,066 54—it has cells for 318 pris
oners. The land occupied is about 8
acres, and is part of 10 acres ceded to
the State by the city of Allegheny from
the common grounds The building and
the prison cosanmed 8 years, and the
first prisoner was received July 21, 1826
The subsistence of each prisoner cost
$95,55 in 1861, and $75,45 in 1862. The
Inspectors think that Block C' now be
gun, should be finished. They state that
any prisoner desiring the ministrations
of any clergyman of any denomination,
whatever, may have such ministrations,
subject to the rules of the prison.
They are constrained, by reason of the
high prices of food, rent, and clothing to
ask of the State an increase of salary for
some of the officers, and they speak in
these favorable terms of the officers of
the Prison :
The principal officer, of the prison have been
twice re-elected since our last Report, and but
few changes in the subordinate appointments,
(which are made by the Warden) hare occurred.
It gives us pleasure once again to bear testimony
to the fidelity, capacity, and untiring industry uC
our of in every department,
Freedom in Abeyance
We have, more than once in these col
umns, endeavored to warn the people
against the popular delusion, that they
could temporarily put aside their liber
ties and resume them at their option.
The following, from the pen of the editor
of the London Examiner, a paper which
has supported and still supports the
cause of the North, is a terse and pointed
illustration of this truth :
We have never concurred in the opin
ion that the institutions of America have
been found wanting on this trial. The
fault has not been with them ; but with
the people who, for vain glory, have
given up their liberties. Had they lived
under a monarchy, then would have
done the same, and would have made
their sovereign absolute as the Czar
whom they so much admire and extol.
It is their rice to lave greatness more than
liberty, to be vain of extensive territory
instead of personal rights; hence their light
surrender of all their best securities for
freedom.
Let us not be told they will resume their
guaraatees when the occasion has passed
away. As well might it be said that a
icon, a n wrath - 1 resume her chastity after a
rieuder. A nation vhich has consent
ed to live without its liberties has pre
pared itself too well for the loss of them.
It has forgone the habit of toe.

Abolition of the Office of Surveyor
• ; ,.5;Ti, GIVAMPL
The fill Wiring are the proceedings of
the House, at Harnsburg, in relation to
the attempt (which failed) to abolish the
office of Surveyor General-
Mr. Lris offered the following resolu
tion which was read twice
Resoltnt, That tile Conanltt,e ot Ways and
Means t hereby instructed to inquire into the
propriety of abolishing the office of Surveyor
teneral,and transferring the duties of that office
to some other department or bureau, and that
said committee be authori7e4 to report by bill or
otherwise
On the question,
Will the House agree to the resolution?
The yeas and nays were demanded by
Messrs. Soto - mho and . REI.
Mr. OLMSTEAD. Mr. Speaker, I do
not propose to take up the time of the
House with anything like a discussion of
this subject. This being a new resolu
tion of inquiry, it seems to me to he very
harmless. INto possible injury to any one
can result from the action of the commit
tee upon tire question presented it) the
resolution.
The question of the propriety of the
abolition of the Land office has been dis
cuAed by the public for several years;
and if gentlemen will take the trouble to
examine the report of the Surveyor Gen
eral, they will see at once that very little
is being accomplished for the Common
wealth by that department. If I am
correct in my tecolleetion, (and I am not
sure or t his, ) the report for the last year
shows that the expenses of that office are
fully equal to the amount of the receipts.
I may be mistaken in this statement, but
such is my impression. If I am correct
in this, ( ertainly - this office ought to be
abolished. I would be utterly opposed
to abolishing it during the term of the
present incumbent. I am opposed to
legislating an office from under any man:
1 do not suppose that any respectable
committee of till- , - Bonze w.ndd report in
favor of such a proposition.
Mr.' PERSHING Mr, Speaker, it is
true as the gentleman front Potter has just
stated, that two pr three years ago the
propriety of abolishing this of was ag
itated. The reason urged nt that time in
favor of this step was that comparatively
no business was done in that office. The
receipts, if I recollect aright, (and I made
some examination at the time.) were
not :int& ient to pay:the expenses of the
employment of the clerks in that depart
ment. But things have materially chang
ed since that time, anB although I have
not a ropy of the Sorveyor Generals re
port at hand, yet I am quite confident that
the gentleman front Potter is mistaken in
saying that the roceipts of that office clu
ing the last year did not pay the expenses.
The Met is that the people throughout the
Commonwealth Who are holding unpat
ented land are to a great extent becoming
alarmed. and mute business has been done
in that office during the la :t two or thru.e
years than for sonic scars previous
In addition to that, the Legislature has
imposed upon that department the duty
of making out in alphabetical order, for
every county in the Commonwealth, a
list of land , whichremain unPatented
or for which fees are due to the State
Every gentleman has ecautined
this matter knows thnt the preparation
of such is a work of immense labor
The tiersons engaged in that office have
been diligently employed in this work
during the term of the present Surveyor
General and during a part of the term of
the former Surveyor Gsueral, and that
work is not vet nearly a: c.:mplish,-.1

The Fenian Brotherhood
Bishop Duggan Denounces the Organ-
From the Chlzqg3 Time,
The Fennian Brotherhood, a — society of
Irishmen having for its object the crea
' tion of a sentiment of nationality among
• their countrymen, with a view of sooner
or later redeeming Ireland from English
rule," has met with a general opposition
from the Catholic clergy.' Some time
since Rt. Rev James Duggan, Bishop of
the Diocese of Chicago, denounced the
Fenian Brotherhood, warned all true
Catholics against it, and required priests
to refuse absolution to any of their peni
j tents belonging to this society. This
was only done, the Bishop states, after
a general consultation with other Bishops
high in authority in the Catholic Church
all of whom were unanimous in their
declaration that the association was an
improper and illegal one.
The reason of this opposition IA ,ta
ted to be, that the Fenian Brotherhood
was a secret society, and as such forbid
den by the laws of the church
The National Fenian Convention
; which met in this city last fall, denied
that the association was such a secret
one as is forbidden hy the laws of the
Catholic Church—denied that it was an
"oath-bound society, for no oath what
ever is required to entitle a man to all
the privileges of the association.
With this denial, the arguments by
p - hich it was sustained, and the natural
stimulus of the national convention, the
Fenians increased rapidly in numbers
and influence. A National Fenian Fair
was the next step, and soon attracted
considerable attention. Its prosperity
again caused the intervention of the
clergy, and Bishop Duggan, on Sunday
last, again warned Catholics of the dan
gerous tendency, and that its members
are excluded from the sacrament. With
relation to the denial of secresy the Bish
op sus; "There is a secret in the Inner
Circle, although its external outward
members do not know it and take no
oath; but there is a secret in the inner
c c 1 e , which I cannot ascertain and which
I have a right to demand of Catholics
connected with this society, what its ob
ject, what its meaning. That secret I
have not been able precisely to learn.
I have been told the object is to sever
the dependence of Ireland on England,
and this it to be accomplished, not by
moral Ille.. , llrez. but by violence, by
torte of arms and bloodshed. To those
traffic in the*mpathiett of their etittntry
Proceeding to speak of the coming
fair the Bishop said: "But I consider I
have to warn yen on this matter, on other
grounds; I regard it as a delusion. An
appeal is made to your sympathies to en
courage what I believe to be a delusion
and a fraud. Those men have no thought
of being able to reach that Ireland; but,
in the meantime, your generosity,' your
kindly sympathies, are appealed to; your
purses are drawn open, and all is abused.
I do not think; cannot believe, from
what I know of the power of England
and the weakness of Ireland, that any
serious attempt is likely to be made to
free Ireland from the control of England.
In times past, we read in the history of
Ireland, and in the recent life of Dr.
Doyle, especially, that the greatest diffi
culty that the friends of 'lreland have
had to' contend with, arose from these
secret illegal societies, and the on tiri n g
efforts he brought to bear on these un
happy and deluded men. who join these
dark cabals, rendered them in a great
measure powerless."
In conclusion he warned the "members,
who entered into this society in good
faith, that they instantly abandon it,
and also those persons who give aid to
this society thus publicly condemned,
that they expose themselves to the dan
ger of being expelled from the sacra
ments, and that after this,public warning
they cannot he addmitted to the sacra
meats without doing suitable public
Penance." On next Sunday, he an
noundes that n circular will he read in
all the parishes of the Diocese, in which
this so; iety will he particularly repro
