CLEARFIELD, PA., FEB'Y 11, 1883.
THE BOILEATJ CASS.
Albert D. Boileaa, editor of the Philadel
phia Evening Journal was recently arrested by
order of General Schcnk, for publishing cer
tain articles dangerous to the interests of the
Government, ami "tending to the support and
encouragement ot the .Rebellion." Judge
Ludlow, o Philadelphia, took the matter into
his own hands, and, after directing the Grand
Jury to inquire into and present the fact 5, or
dered the District Attorney to indict the per
sons who took part in the arrest of Mr. Boi-.
lean. This, if carried out, would, as a mat
ter of course, havo resulted in a conflict be
tween the Federal and State authorities. Since
then, II is lion. Judge Allison, of the same
Court, has also. charged the Grand Jpsy, dis
avowing the course of Judge Ludlow, declar
ing that he had transcended his powers, that
he had assumed a dangerous and improper
responsibility, and bad brought the Court in
to disrepute by apparently arraying a Phila
delphia Jury against the National Govern
ment, and Indicting the officers of that Gov
ernment. At the conclusion of his charge be
ordered the District Attorney not to send in
an indictment based on the presentment
brought into Court on tho 30th Jannary, until
directed so to do by a majority of the Court."
Whilst matters judicial were running into
this -sort of a "mix," Mr. Boileau, probably
getting weary of the "durance vile" in which
he found himself, wrote the following letter,
upon which he was granted a release :

trolled by me.
Given at Baltimore, this the 1st day of Feb
ruary, 1863. Albert D. Boileau.
Whether anything further will be done in
the matter, remains to be seen.
BTJJIMABY OF JTEWS.
On the morning of the 2nd February a hor
rible murder was committed in Columbia
county. A step-mother named Sou It, mur
dered three ol her step-children, aged respect
ively seven, nine and fourteen years, by sev

axe, and afterward threw their bodies into
the fire. She was arrested and confined in

The certificates of indebtedness, Tecently
stolen from the office of the United States
Treasurer, have been recovered. They were
in sums of $5,000 each, and amounted to two
and a half millions dollars; but being unfin

thief fouod it useless to offer them.
. On the 4th, a passenger train ou the . Steu
ben villa and .Indiana railroad was thrown off

Cadiz Junction. All the passengers of two
cars were more or less injured. One car was
smashed, and another burned up.
There is a proposition before Congress to

THE DEMOCRATIC 1EADERS.
Below we give several extracts from speech
es made before a ' Democratic" Club in Pbil
edelpbia, which plainly show the objects of
the leaders of that party in Pennsylvania.
Mr. Peter McCall, at a meeting held on Jan
uary 29th, two days after the arrest of Boi
leau, in the course of some remarks said :
"The lawless course of the Administration
will provoke lawlessness on the part ot the
people. If they could not be protected un
der and by the law, it was natural that they
ehould seek redress outside of the law."
Mr. John Bullitt, another speaker on the
same occasion, said:
"The Administration is trampling upon the
rights and privileges which have been ac
quired by the blood and struggles of two cen
turies. . . . There is a point beyond which
human endurance could not be expected to
extend. . . . The fire that bas long been
smothered beneath a wet blanket has well
nigh dried its covering and is liable to break
forth in a blaze at any moment. Gire 'ttj lib
erty, or give us death,' may, ere long, be seen
in white letters on red flags."
At a meeting of the same Club, held on
Tuesday evening, February 3d, a Reverend
Chnuucey C. Burr, made use of the following
language:
"Abraham Lincoln is a greater traitor than
J' fferson Davis. . What Das Jeff Davis done 1
He has merely infringed upon our Territorial
jurisdiction. He has not struck at the Consti
tution. . . Carry the pluck which you have dis
played this evening with you into the street."
In all these -extracts we have a direct appeal
to resist the authority of the National Govern
ment, should the opportunity present itself.
That is just the doctrine that the, Rebels in
the South have been proclaiming. They as
serl that their rights were trampled upon
that they were not protected by the laws
that they were forced to seek redress outside
of the law, and hence, their armed resistance
to the authority of the Government. Both,
the Rebels of the South and their sympathi
ser in the North, urge the same plea in ex
tenuation of their hostility to the legally con
stituted authorities, and both have proclaimed
the same watchward, "Gire us liberty, or give
usdealh"l
It is high time that honest Democrats
should understand the true position of their
leaders, who are always thus ready to offer
palliating excuses for the Rebels. The Rev
erend leader above quoted says that "Jeff Da
vis has not struck at the Constitution," but
has "merely infringed upon our territorial
jurisdiction." Ilow very mild ! "merely in
fringed." But, forsooth, should the war de
partment order tho ariest of one of these sym
pathisers for uttering language "tending to the
support and encouragement of the rebellion
against the Government," and immediately it
is denounced as a gross violation of the Consti
tution, and Abraham Lincoln proclaimed as
"a greater traitor than Jefl Davis," and yet,
these men profess to be the true friends of
the Union, whilst they are engaged in dis
seminating dissentions and disloyal senti
ments. Loyal Democrats can you any longer
doubt their real object ?
THE TIDE TURNING.
"G. W. Lee, General Commanding," is in
trouble. It seems that this officer is in com
mand of a Department in the South, with his
headquarters at Dahlonega, and that among
other things his duty is to suppress insurrec
tions, "and generally to restore tranquility to
this part of the country." It seems that a
number of deserters, tories,and conscripts are
now in Georgia and North Carolina, resisting
the laws ol the Confederacy. These insurrec
tionary movements seem to have more than
usual meaning, and to have been more than
usually momentous, for Lee offers a full am
nesty to these who surrender, while those who
persist will be tranquilized by the musket.
"It will bo a lruitless attempt,'.' he says, "to
war against tho Government, and must result
in the most disastrous defeat to all who may
be so deluded as to attempt it." In this good
work he is assisted by "Joseph E.. Brown,
Governor ot Georgia" In Alabama, we have
another appeal from the Governor, who is
afraid that the enforcement of the conscript
act will lead to a popular commotion. "Ala
bama," be says, "must be true to herself, and
do her duty in the emergency." He regrets
to find many patriots lingering about their
homes, and he calls upon them not to lot their
brothers bear the bnrden of an unequal con
test, and he inplores the people to give aid to
the conscription officers "in arresting and
coercing those who yield to no gentler means."
In North Carolina there is a grievous com
plaint from Governor Tance, commanding the
stragglers to return to their colors. These
declaratons appearing at the same time indi
cate great changes in the South. The tide is
turning, and men who have ridden upon it
seem likely to drift into infamy. Perhaps the
proclamations of Loe, Shorter, and Vance are
the answers of the Cotton States to tho Presi
dent's proclamation. They show distrust and
demoralization in the South, and seem to in
dicate a counter revolution of a formidable
character. Now, when the South is reeling
and tottering, let us strike the blow it so
sincerely dreads, and the rebellion will be at an
end. Press
GOOD NEWS FROM VICKSBURG.
A special dispatch, dated Cairo February
7th, says that the steamer Adelaide has ar
rived from Vicksbnrg, with the important in
formation that the United States ram Queen
of the West ran tho blockade on Monday
morning at daylight. One hundred heavy
siege guns were opened on her, and as she
steamed past, a rebel steamer also opened fire
on the Queen of the West. The latter replied
and crippled the rebel steamer. The Queen
was under fire three quarters of an hour, ap
parently unhurt. This bold and successful
exploit is worthy or praise. We look for
more exciting news from Vicksbnrg, ere long.
. It is rumored that the pirate Alabama had
arrived at Port Royal, Jamaica, for repairs
having received four shots from tbo United
States gunboat Ilatteras, during the engage
ment in the Gulf.
HOW THEY GET SUPPLIES
M. M. Kimniey, the United States Vice
Consul at Monterey, Mexico, has written a let
ter in which he says: ;
'The rebels are buying up everything here
that can be eaten, worn, or that can be used
to kill Union men. It is astonishing to see
the enormons quantities of goods that go Irom
here into Texas. Millions of dollars' worth
of cotton are sold here monthly ; all of which
is sent back to the rebels, by tbeiragents here,
in the shape of powder, lead, coffee, blankets,
shoes, rope, sugar, cotton goods ot al! kinds,
and, in fact, everything that can be used by
their army. An order is here now for 600,
000 blankets, ail of which can be had, and
with a sufficient amount of money to pay for
them., 'Agents are on the frontier, and as far
in the interior as San Louis Potosi, baying op
all the wheat and flour that can be had, are
already sending it across the Rio Grande
daily. Most of the goods go from here across
the river at Fort Duncan. Only a few cross
at Leredo or Roma. Until this trade is cut
off. Texas will not feel the blockade, at least
tho western part. If a federal force could
only be sent to Fort Brown, it would have the
effect to stop the trade almost entirely. You
can hardly have an idea of the way Union men
are treated in Texas. They are hung on the
slightest suspicion, and by bodies of irrespon
sible men, who, were they in a country where
law was respected, would not be allowed out
side of a prison yard. . . . We have here
upon this frontier about one thousand Union
men, who sre only waiting for an invasion of
Texas to get a chance to join the Federal army"
From the above it is manifest how the rebel
army has been clothed and fed, and also how
the goods have been paid for. Texas cotton
Is as good as gold, in Mexico, and will buy ar
ticles that conld not be purchased with Con
federate scrip.
HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM CHARLESTON.
The Blockade not Interrupted.
The iron steamer Princes Royal, in charge
or Acting Master Edward Vanslice, arrived off
the Navy Yard at Philadelphia, on Sunday,
February 8th. She brings highly important
intelligence, both as relates to her capture
and the rebel attack on our blockading squad
ron at Charleston, showing conclusively that
there is no foundation for the assumption of
the rebels that the blockade off Charleston
was ever raised by the departure of the United
States fleet only two vessels ont of eight or
ten having been disabled and obliged to leave.
It appears from the statement of an eye-witness,
that the cause of this attack of the rebel
rams on our squadron . was owing to the cap
ture of the Princes Royal the captain and
pilot of that vessel having escaped ashore du
ring the darkness of the night, and communi
cated the intelligence to the enemy. Tho
Princes Royal endeavored to run the blockade
by way ot Breach Inlet on the 29th January,
but was discovered by the pilot-boat Blnnt,
and the signal being given, the Unadella pro
ceeded towards her and captured the prize
without other assistance. According to rebel
news, the port of Charleston was thoroughly
blockaded oa the 3d pf February. The Fed
eral iron-clads were lyii'g inside of the wooden
walls at that time uot having been with the
fleet when the attack was mad6 on the 1st inst.
FROM TENNESSEE.
Late advices from Tennessee give an ac
count of a brilliant aflair at Fort Doselson.
It seems that a rebel force of from 3,000 to
4,000 made a sudden attack upon the garrison
in the fort, and succeeded in capturing four
guns. Our boys, however, rallied and drove
the rebels back, retaking the guns, killing 135
of the enemy, and wounding and taking 300
prisoners. Forrest, the rebel guerrilla caval
ry chief, was reported to bo wounded. Our
loss was from 40 to 50 killed and wounded.
Col. Stokes regiment of Tennessee cavalry,
and a regiment of Kentucky volunteers,
dashed upon a camp of rebels at Middletown,
fifteen miles west of Murfreesboro, on the 2nd.
Our cavalry made a Sabre charge and took
them by surprise, killing one, taking 100
prisoners, their equipage, horses, wagons, ect.
Maj. Douglass, of Douglass rebel battalion,
and all his officers were among the prisoners.
Davis' cavalry also made a descent upon
Franklin, and captured twenty-five rebels
WESTERN GULF SQUADRON. .
The nouston-recerajft (Texas) of January
23d, contains an account of the capture, at
Sabine Pass, of the United Stites brig Morn-'
ing Stai, and an unknown schooner, on the
21st, by an expedition from the Magruder
(rebel) fleet. The rebel commander says he
captured nine guns, about a million dollars'
worth of property, and one hundred and nine
prisoners.
Gen. Magruder, on the 4th of Jannary, pro
claimed the port of Galveston open to-commerce
; but Com. Bell, U. S. Navy, issued a
proclamation ou the 20th, declaring Galves
ton, Sabine Pass, and the whole coast of Tex
as nnder actual Dlockade, and warning all ves
sels from trading therein under penalty of
capture.
' A Pitiful Sight. One of the most pitiful
and humilitating 'sights that has yet come
within the range of our vision, was that of a
drunken army Chaplain, on February 3rd, who
came reeling out of Strawberry alley : into
Third Street. He was filthy and furious.
Oaths leaped from his lips with the seeming
fluency with which whiskey must have run
down his throat. He was only a disgrace to
himself. Neither religion, valor, patriotism
or purity suffer by the action of such men,
because they are brutes that only need devel
oping, and the sooner they are known and ex
terminated the better for the canse of religion
and of freedom. Harrisburg Telegraph.
- PRESTiOE.of the Louisville Journal, sayss

Union, with New England "left but are no bet

tersely sums np the whole question.
CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.
Is the Sehatk, Feb. 4th, a bill was passed

and when absent without leave, in addition to
the penalties now provided, he shall forfeit all
his pay, except when sick or wounded. On a
motion to strike out the second section, giv
ing the President power to make all rules and
regulations for enrolling and drafting the mi
litia, there was a IoDg debate, chiefly as to the
number of Democrats in the army. The mo
tion was lost Yeas, 9; Nays, 33. No vote
was taken on the bill itself. In the House,
report was made adversely on the credentials
of J. B. McLoud claiming a seat from the lid
District of Virginia; and also on the applica
tion of his contestant, W. W. Wing. The
Coastwise Submarine Telegraph bill was a
dopted, 71 to 63. The bill for the codifica
tion of the . statutes failed, 42 to 86. The
Ship Canal bill was difcussed, but postponed

tection of overland emigrants to the States
and Territories on tho Pacific coast. ' It ap
propriates $30,000 to be expended under tho
direction of iho Secretary of War. A bill to
estabTuh an Ambulanco corps was passed. It
authorizes the peVmaneiit enlistment of 20.-
000 men for the performance of such duties.
A colonel is provided as head of the corps,

sergeant for every 20 men. and a corporal for
every 10 men. The House passed the Senate
bill for the more efficient administiation of
the Subsistence Department. It provides for
a brigadier-general as the chief, two colonels
as assistant Commissaries, and a major; the
selection to be made either from the army or
volunteer forces. The Committee on Milita
ry Affairs reported back the House bill, with
the Senate's amendments, authorizing 20,
000 men to be raised in Kentucky, for twelve
months, for the defense of that State, &c.
The amendment was agreed to so the bill
has passed both Houses.
In the Senate, February 5th, a bill was in
troduced to aid the construction of railroads
and telegraphs io Kansas. Mr. Wall offered
a resolution to inquire into an "arbitrary ar
rest," but it was laid over. The bill in rola-"
tion to Jurors in the United States Courts
was passed ; also the bill concerning Courts
in Washington Territory ; also the bill to
temporarily supply vacancies in Executive
Departments; also the bill to change the time
of holding certain District Courts. The bill
encouraging enlistments, and the enrollment
and drafting of the military was taken up.
The pending question to strikeout tho 4th

and the bill was recommitted to the Military
Committee. A resolution was adopted that

no contracts shall be entered into for con
struction, until proposals have been solicited
from the principal iron shipbuilders, and made
on the most favorable terms. An appropria
tion for the Brooklyn Navy. Yard was increas
ed in ordered to accommodate three vessels
now building there 428 feet in length.
The NashvWe Union truly remarks : "There
can be no true Democracy while treason keeps !
its armies in the Held, except war Democracy.
The office-hunters who, at a time like this,
preach peace, peace, in the North, may be
Democrats in name, but. in reality they are
tories and traitors, who would be in atrasa
gainst their Government were they living in
the so-called confederacy." It is said of a
celebrated personage, that he cannot, With all
his skill "and cunning, conceal his cloven foot ;
and so it is with our peace Democrats. They
tried long and hard to palm themselves off as
loyal men, but that "secesh" foot would stick
out; and now all men understand that to say
a man is a peace Democrat is the same as to
say that he is a follower of Jeff. Davis.
