DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE.
The members of thle Committee are request
. rd to convene at the Buehler House, in Harris--
nurg, on Tuesday, the lath of July, lost., at
three o'cloak. P. 111.
The gentlemen degignated to run as Presidential
electors at the enauing election, by the late
Democratic State Convention, are also respect
' lolly invited to meet the Committee at the same
time and place, with a view to a more complete
and efficient organization of the party.
C. L. WARD,
Chairman Democratic State Central Committee,
TOWANDA, July 6th, 1861.
Democratic papers please copy.
Pennsylvania, also, appealed
readers to 'enlist for our State's prole('
But, in truth it makes little matter
what Democrats do, or not do, their
thanks, after danger is over, is always
the same. If not fussy and noisy, and
we may add, disgustingly pretentious,
they are accdsed of indifference; and if
they exhibit all of these, besides what is
better, genuine valor in the field, they
are robbe,l of the credit due them by
Abolition detraction. Take the slander
we have quoted, for example, and what
can be more brazen or incredible; and
vet the poor fool who had the shame
lessness to pen it, affects surprise that
Democrats are not satisfied with such
treatment. The truth is that Abolition
ism is incapable of conducting the Gov
ernment, or putting down the rebellion,
and it is equally incapable of decently en
joying the power they accidentally and
surreptitiously obtained. They have
neither executive ability, patriotism,
valor, or good breeding. In a wont
they are poor miserable pretenders,
whose love of country consists in loud
professions, and who are anxious for
others to enlist for the war, while they
stay.at home to finger and fob whatever
comes in their way. This is the head
and front of Abolition patriotism.
It is gratifying for us to know that,
even if the "Copperhead press" did not
come up to the Abolition standard of pa
triotism, none of them rejoiced in our
calamity. Can the Gazette say as much?
It will, with all its assurance, not at
tempt to do so in the face of the follow
ing from the leading organ of its party,
the Trumne, of New York City. For
several days it contained such senti
ments as these:
"For years" "we have been hoping that the rebels
would Malt Washington city." •'.41 lad—tin-re
wears after they should have done it—they have
;aside their rush on the Federal capital. We re
juice at this." •
When the arch agitator and traitor,
GREELair, penned these lines, he
thought the rebels were in possession of
our national capital, and his hope
therefore was that such calamity would
only add additional bitterness to the
war, in order to prolong its existence.
And this bloody and brutal monster,
and his followers and echoes, are, for
sooth the genuine patriots of the coun
try. What transparent hypocricy!
IS THIS WAR,
The New York Tribune, the mouth
piece of all that is black in republican
ism, asks the question, "is this war,"
and says : That we have ever held our
National struggle for existence an un
welcome but imperative necessity, to be
prosecuted with all the energies and
means of the Republic to the earliest pos
sible conclusion, those are aware who
have endeavored or wished to under
stand us. We do not and cannot agree
with those who seem to hold that a great
war, especially a great civil war, may
coexist with real National prosperity!
On the contrary, we hold that, though
with individual exceptions, property Is
and must be destroyed in such a war
much faster and .more extensively than
it is produced, so that the Nation, and of
course the majority of its people, must
be constantly growing poorer, rendenng
the struggle of the great mass for sub
sistence and comfort harder and harder.
Whatever of seeming prosperity and
increase of wet.lth may be exhibited
during the progress of such a contest
must resemble the factitious, delusive
strengh imparted to the tippler by his
dram, to the tired and hungry horse
by his rider's spur; or to the stagnant,
decaying city by a conflagration which
sweeps away half its buildings but im
parts a momentary bustle to its streets,
its quays, and :Its places of traffic.
From the -.outset; . therefore, we have
been itripellid 'by' the ctitiiicticrit quit
every effort should be made by the loy
al to shorten the war.
THE POST-PITTSBURGH, MON DAY MORNING, JULY 18, 1864.
•TALKING OUT IN fIIEETIN."
The CO/Mirka of this city had bet- ,
ter be careful and not lose its usual dis
cretion; complaints against the National
Administration, it ought to know is sim
ply treason to the Overnineut. In re
ply to a correspondent in GRANT'S
army, who expresses great "disgust"
for Pennsylvania and Maryland, for
permitting the late rebel invasion, our
neighbor says: "The truth is, Pennsyl
vania and Maryland were quite as well
prepared as was the 110, ernmeht at

whose duty it was to 1. note of the aPproach ,
of the invadetA, am/ to hare d rf..ep them
had, before reaching the Potomac. It is
not creditable, after having permitted
the invasion to take place, to cry out
against the States invaded, because they
were not prepared to expel the invaders;
more especially since those who cry out
have not the ability to cut off the raid
ers fleeing with their booty. Cannot
the army he just in manifesting its con
tempt? or has it chosen to express it•
self only so far as Pennsylvania and
Maryland are concerned being restrain
ed by discipline from saying what it
thinks on the other points in the case?
SLAVERY IS 1)EA I)
Under this caption the following par
agraph, from the New York E.epress, is
going the rounds of the Abolition pa
pers; but it is strange that while rejoic
ing
in the death of the monster, the fa
natics will not let him lie quietly in his
grave. Says the Express:
"Slavery carries with it its cwn pun
ishment. It is a dead drag to the
politic. It is impossible for any commu
nity to prosper with it on its bosom.
The affliction bears as heavily on the
master as upon the slave. It endangers
the peace and happiness of the master,
and robs the slave of his freedom and Lis
birthright. As to prosperity and accu
mulation of property, it keeps the mas
ter in the rear of others in a like situa
tion exempt from this evil. and thus de
prives him when it depresses his ser
vant. It is demonstrable, in my opin
ion, that that community of whites, ta
ken, as a whole, must be happier, more
prosperous and richer, where slavery is
prohibited, than where it is allowed."
Law Limiting the Number of Pas
sengera in Steamships, &c.
On account of the violation of the
spirit, if not the letter of the law of
March 3d, 18,55, limiting the number of
passengers to two persons to one of ton
nage, such violation arising particularly
upon lines of steamers running via the
Isthmus of Panama, Congress, at its last
session, passed a very stringent act on
the subject,lby which the lines by Mex
ico and Central America are particular
ly specified. The following is the lead
ing remedical clause of the act:
That the list of passengers required to

Chivalry Revived
The circumstances attending the last
raid of the rebels, are enough to excite
the ridicule of any man, however serious
he may he, and although he posses a
countenance as grim as old Pluto him
self. The romance of the whole affair
is quite sufficient to rouse the excitibil
ity of any ardent youth. The ladies
hold a prominent position, and the; - part
they acted in the capture of the two
trains near Baltimore, surpasses what
we read of feminine adventuress in the
days of knight-errantry, and what still
more contn•ibutes to the grand beauty of
the romance, is the fact that we are as
yet uncertain if these events took place
at all. What is affirmed to -day, is con
tradicted to-morrow, and the conse
quence is, that we are still remaining in
a pleasing, delightful uncertainty. As
in the romance of ancient days, here
also numbers are reported to be double
the amount they really were, so that
we feel not a little disappointed to learn
that only one hundred and fifty men, all
told, captured the trains at Cockney
ville, when, at first reports, they were
represented as twelve hundred strong,
sweeping like a raging torrent over the
plains of Maryland. Truly if this war is
' continued much longer, we shall return
unexpectedly to the ancient rites and
customs of chivalry.
TEE taxes of Ohio, for State and
municipal purposes, are said ty be .$BO,-
000.000; and for Federal purposes $1.;,-
000,000. These taxes of Ohio alone
would have defrayed the entire annual
expenses of the Government in ordinary
times. They bear heavily upon Ohio
now, but' no more so than proportion
ately large taxes do upon Michigan and
other States. Instead of lessening, our
taxes are constantly increasing. And
they will increase, until the people,
open their eyes to the condition of
their country, and return to the old
Democratic administration,pnder which
the country was universally prosperous,
the people were happy, taxes were low
and we Were respected both at home and
abroad. Let the people once more have
an eye to: their own interests and happi
ness, if they do this not only our taxes
will not pverburthen us bud we will not
be forced to don a uniforni to light Our
own brothers, nor will we be obliged to
second at the risk our lives the iniqui
tous designs of a corrupt Administra
tion.
