Br 8. J. ROW. CLEABFIELD, PA., JAN. 20, 1864. CONGEESSIOUAL PEOCEEDLNGS. Jan. 11. In the Senate, Mr. Hender son's proposed amendments to our Consti tution are 1st, That slavery, or involunta ry servitude, except as a punishment for crime, shall not exist in the United States. 2d, That a majority of all the members of each House may propose amendments to the Constitution ; that a majority of all the States, through their legislatures, may do the same ; that such amendments shall be a part of the Constitution when ratified by the Legislatures of two-thirds of all the States. In the IIouse, a bill was referred to reimburse Pennsylvania for expenses in calling out militia during invasion. Jan. 12. In the Senate, Mr. Fc?sen tlea reported lack the House bill, extending bounties to veteran and other Toluntecrs. It waa passed. The House went into com mittee of the Whole on the bill to reimburse Pennsylvania for calling out the militia for repelling invasion and appropriating $900, 000 for that purpose. Jan. 13. In the Senate, Mr. Bucka lew wanted the Government to print 5,000 copies of McClellan's report for the use of the Senate. In the House, Mr Boutwcll reported a bill to enable President Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation to be carried into effect. The House voted to print 10, 000 copies of McClcIlan's and Grant's lle orts. Jan. 14. The Senate took up the En rollment bill. The original amendment of the Military Committee, striking out the $300 clause, was rejected by a vote of 28 a gainst II. Mr. Sherman' s amendment came up, which strikes out Section 4 of the original bill,and provides that persons furn ishing substitutes or money shall be liable to draft on future calls, and raises the com mutation to $500. Mr. Howard's motion retaining the $300 clause of the old biil was adopted by a vote of 23 toll, in lieu of Sher- Jan."1XLntiie Senate, the Enroll ment bill then came up ; an amendment pas sed prohibiting enlisted mcu from serving as substitutes save in regiments of the State in which they first enlisted ; an amendment to strke out the $300 clause was lost. Jan. 15 In hue Senate, a petition wa3 presented from citizens of New York praying that the unnaturalized residents be not ex empted from the draft. Nearly the entire session was taken up in a continuation of the debate on the Enrollment bill, and amend ments were asrreed to providing that veter ana re-enlisting shall be credited to the dis tricts from which they originally joined the services; the commutation money shall be applied to filling the quotas of districts in which it is paid, and that colored troops stall be credited to the States from which they enlist. Eevclutionary Proceedings. The extraordnary proceedings of the cop perhead Senators becomes more interest ing daily, says the Harrisburg Telegraph It was fully developed on Thursday morn ing tiu.t the minority in that body refus ed to join with the House of Represen tatives in appointing a committee to make preparations for the inauguration of the Governor elect on Tuesday 19th. On a res olution of Mr. Lowry to proceed to the House-for the purpose of counting the votes cast at the last election for Governor, they remaned silent and the Speaker declafed .it agreed to. When the hour arrived to pro ceed to the House of Representatives to count the votes in accordance with the Con stitution, not one of the minority accompa nied the majority, but every Copperhead remained steadfast in his seat. The sixteen Union members discharged their duty faith fully, aad the votes were legally counted, and A. G. Curtin was duly declared Gov ernor elect for the next ensuing three years, and no rebel horde at home or abroad will prevent his inauguration on the 19th inst. It will make but little difference whether the friends of Jeff Davis in Pennsylvania will participate in that preceeding. From Charleston. Private information from rebel sources is, that Charleston is being gradually destroyed by the fire of our batteries. On the 26th of December, two blocks of buildings in the heart of the city, belonging to the estate of the late Senator Butler, were destroyed by fire kindled by Gilmore's shells, and several large warehouses occupied by the Confeder ate Government, filled with army supplies, were aUo destroyed. About the same time the city was deserted by all except the mili tary. The poorer classes erected temporary accommodations in the suburbs of the city. Great destitution prevails" among them. The telegraph -operator at Charleston has been notiued not to telegraph for publication, the effect of our fire on the city. The news paper offices have removed. WE HAVE THEIE EEC0ED. In another part of to-days Journal we publish 4 'The Record Made Up" from the proceedings of the Pennsylvania Senate, which should be read by every truly loyal man in the country. It will be observed that the minority in the Senate refused, by their votes, to accord the praise due our brave and gallant armies for their efforts to save our glorious Union from destruction by traitors deny them a just and well-earned compensation for their services and are op posed to granting them the privilege to vote whilst in the service of their country. In referring to the course pursued by the mi nority in the State Senate the Harrisburg Telegraph, of January 14th, says: "As time elapses, and the minority in the Senate waste days opposing the organization of that lxly, we cau congratulate ourselves on one fact, namely that tehile they had their spite, ice luue got their record. The delay m the organization of the Senate has not benefitied the minority any further than the opportunity which it has afforded the leaders of the so-called Democratic par ty to record their bitter antagonism to the Government "The minority have settled no question of Constitutional right they have endorsed no precedent in legislation they have established no principle in justice they have succeeded only in obstructing and destroying the rightful and necessary pro gress of public business. And while they were engaged, thus far, in this work of spite, they have made a record for themselves at once full of shame, inconsistency and ingrati tude. They have insulted the soldier in the field, by refusing him the just meed of praise which his valor has won. They have outraged his family at home, by opposing that increase of pay with which the soldier can alone secure the comfort of those whom he loves. They have insisted upon the deg radation of the defenders of the Govern ment, by denying to the soldiers the fran chises of a citizen. Thev have encouraged" traitors by attempting to defeat the efforts to put an end to treason. They have by their rotes extended direct aid and comjort to t hose inarms for tlie detraction of the Federal Union and the J. at in nm Government! in this, and in nothing but this, has the effort to postpone the organization of the Senate, thus far. resulted. Loval men have lost nothing but time traitors have gained noth ing but shame, by the delay of that organi zation. Our friends represent a righteous cause. They arc rcsohrte in its support and defence. Their opponents made the issue to depend upon a monopoly of officers and patronage to which they have no just claim they staked the very integrity of the Sen ate upon the privilege to be accorded to their followers to plunder, and now let them abide the result, Jjet them take the record they have made, with the responsibility which they have assumed, awl g& before the peo ple. Let them do this, if tRey dare, sind they will be politically damned !" A Pithy Rebuke. The hackneyed cry about the "object of ' t, -1 f . 1.. ..1 .M.'.af.tl and pithily rebuked by the Brooklyn (N. Y.) Daily Union. The most complete foil to this is the ac tion of the people of the slave States. They, if any, should be sensitive to such a change. They, if any, should turn most eagerly from a war waged for emancipation instead of for the Union. What is their action ? Louis iana arms her citizens and her freedmcn, and send them to fight side by side. Dela ware presents the first case ot the re-enlistment in the anny of entire regiments. Ar kansas adds five thousand volunteers to the force of General Blunt in ten days. Two thirds of the. border State members of Con gress vote for the arming of negro soldiers, and for the strongest resolutions of loyalty yet presented, and presented, too, by one of their own nuiuber. It is useless to rant. Even the credulity of Democrats has its limits. Our soldiers are not mercenaries, "purchased at a higher Jrice than George the Third ever paid for lis foreign soldiery." Our people are not a driven herd. There are asses among us, but they are more plentiful among the wri ters than among the readers of disloyal jour nals. The people begin to see that the bor der States understand' this question thor oughly, and are. still true ; that the only change which has taken' place is in public sentiment. For them the war is still for the Union, whether slavery go down or not. To endeavor to convince them that the fall of that institution indicates a change in the object of the struggle is but spitting against the wind, with its unpleasant consequences. The Exchange of Prisoners. The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Tribune speaks fully as hopefully of the result of the measures proposed to be taken by General Butler, in order to bring the reb els to terms regarding the exchange of pris oners, as did our own correspondent in his dispatches yesterday. We quote the Wash ington dispatch on this subject from Wed nesday's Tribune. : The mission of Gen. Butler here has a much wider reach than has yet been stated, and relates to future plans of the utmost importance, the nature of which must re main secret till subsequent action on the part of the rebels cause their development General Butler had another protracted in terview to-day with the President, Secreta ry Stanton anil Gen. Halleck, and is under stood to have received their indorseuient.of his proposed course, and had full power giv en him to carry; the same into effect. That all the rebel prisoners, about 38,000 in num ber, are to be transmitted to his Depart ment, is true, and retaliatory measures, to a proper and legitimate extent, have beco de termined upon. There is also embraced in Gen. Butler's scheme, a move in the came which the rebels little think of, and which cannot fail to bring them to terms. He has proposed a countermovement to every possi ble contingency, and whether they refuse to hold communication, with him or not, the result will be the same. Jeff. Davis' Press, A rumor is prev alent in New York, that one of the journals of that city, being on the point of dissolution, its situation was made known at Richmond, and measures were taken to prop it up with rebel funds. No name is given to the jour nal in question; but there can be little diffi culty or determining that point There are, no doubt, other journals elsewhere sustain ed from the same source ; judging from the tone of their articles. THE EEC0ED MADE UP. In the Senate, on Tuesday, J atiuary 5th, Mr. Johnson moved that the Senate do now proceed to the consideration of the bill in troduced by him proposing certain amend ments to the Constitution of the State of Pennsylvania, the first section' of which reads as follows : ' There shall be an additional section to the third article of the Constistutiou, to be de signated as section four,, as follows : Section 4.

In the Senate, on Wednesday, January 6th, Mr Lowry offered the following resolu tion : , Resolved by the Senate, That the thanks of the loyal people of l'emifvauia are due and are hereby tendered to Gen. U. S. Grant and the officers a nd soldiers serving under him fur their of gallant services and glorious victories resulting in the liWa tion of the i'aithul Union people of East Tennessee from a military despotism more galling than ever was that of great Birtain. On the question, Will the Senate proceed to a second reading of the resolution ? the yeas and nays were required by Mr Donovan and Mr. Y ailace, and were as tollows : Yeas Messrs, Champneys, Connell, Dunlap, Flemming, Graham, Hoge, House holder, Johuson.

M'Sherry, Montgomery, Reilly, Stein and Wallace 16. So the question was determined in the negative. In the Senate, on Friday, January Sth, Mr M'Candless offered the following resolu tion : Resolved, That the people of Pennsyl vania, througli their representatives, tender their prof und and heartfualt thanks to Maj. General George G. Mead and the army of the Potomac, for relieving our native State from the tread of the rebel hordes, aud hur ling them back from the immortal field of Gettysburg, and while we thus tender our thanks to the noble living, we revere the memory of the immortal dead who sacri ficed their lives on the holy altar of their beloved country. On the question, Will the Senate proceed to a second reading of the resolution ? the yeas and nays were required by Mr. Dono van and Mr! Stark, and were as follows : Yeas Messrs. Chapneys, Connell, Dun lap. Flemming, Graham, Hoge, Householder, Johnson, Lowry. M'Candless, Nichols,Ridg way, Turrell, "Wilson, Worthington and Penney, Sneaker 16. Nay?; Messrs. Beardslee, Bucher, Cly mer, Donovan, Glatz, Hopkins, Kinsey, Lamberton, Latta, M'Sherry, Montgomery, Reilly, Smith. Stark, Stein and Wallace 16. So the question was determined in the negative. "Who are Jackson Democrats ? In the Senate, on Friday, January 8th. Mr, Worthington, offered the following res olution : Resolwd-, That this day beingthe Fiftieth anniversary of the great victory achieved by Gen. Jackson over the British arms at New Orleans, and in appreciation of his patriot ic devotion to the Union whilst President of the United States, we deem it highly proper to appropriate a portion of our session this morning, to the reading by the Clerk, at 12 o'clock, of his Proclaniatiou and Farewell Address to the people of the United States. On the question, Will the Senate proceed to a second reading of the resolution? The yeas and nays were required by Mr. Stein and Mr. Kinsey, and were as follows : Yeas Messrs. Champneys, ConnelLDun lap, Fleming, Graham, Hoge, Householder, Johnson, Lowry, 31 'Candles, Nichols Ridg way, Turrell, Wilson, Worthington and Pen ney, Speaker 16. Nays Messrs. Beardslee, Bucher, Cly mer, Donovan, Glatz. Hopkins, Kinsey, Lamberton, Latta, M'Sherry, Montgomery, Reilly. Smith, Stark, Stein and Wallace 16. So the question was determined in the negative. By reference to the above vote it will be seen that all the Union men in the Senate of Pennsylvania voted to honor the memory of Gen. Jackson, by reading the old hero's Proclamation and Farewell address, on the Anniversary of the battle of New Orleans, whilst every opposition member voted against the resolution. Which are the true Jack son Democrats? C0EEESP0KDEirCE0P THE J0UENAL. Letter from Capt. A.M. Smith. M anasses Junction, J an. 11,1 864. Friend Row : In your paper of the 6th, I notice your remarks concerning the "Com ing Draft." ACow me to say, that if the citizens of Clearfield county will pay the same amount of bounty to her soldiers in the field, who may re-enlist, as other coun ties have done. I am confident that many of them would do so. Every man who re-enlists is credited to his proper district. A full statement from his company command er is sent to the office ot the Provost Mar shall General at Washington, giving; name, age, etc., township, county, district and State, so that no mistake can occur. 126 men have already re-enlisted from this lle ment only one of the numlter leing from Clearfield. It is true, that in this Regiment there are but few persons from our county, but there are many in other regiments, and would re-enter the service if placed on equal footing with persons from other counties. A draft may be avoided and experienced men kept in the field, if proper inducements are offered. Yours truly, - Alfred M. Smith. Capt Co. C 5th Regt. Pa. 11. V.'C. Letter from Clearfield Eridge. Clearfield Bridge, Jan. 10, 1804. Mr. Row: In your issue of the loth, you published a piece headed "An outrage.' You say "We have been reliably informed, that on last Thursday evening, a Mr. Starot Curwensville, who lived in a rented house, had his household goods thrown into the street by order ot the owner,' and a cradle in which an infant was tying was set in the street that the mother had been confined but a week or two and the reason assigned for the outrage was, that Mr. Star refused at the last fall election to vote for Woodward. " As the parties are well known in the county, it is due them to state briefly the facts in the case. The said Star some time last fall made application to rent the house, and was told he could not have it. A gentleman with whom the key had been left, gave the key to Star. The owner then had a pad-lock put on the door, which was broken open and the house occupied by-Star and his family. After occupying the premises about six weeks, the owner took legal counsel and Star was warned out. He then swore he would not leave under a year. The family physician was then consulted, who said Mrs. Star was as able to go out as she was to move in. Legal counsel wa-j again taken, and two weeks more was given him to vacate the premises. Persons were then employed to set his household goods in the street. The cradle was set out in the snow, hut both mother and child had left. The infant re ferred to was born before the county fair in October last consequently it was about three months old. ' And as to Mr. Star re fusing to vote for J udge Woodward being the cause of this treatment, as your inform ant says, is a malicious falsehood. Truth. Letter from Pkilipsburg. Philipsburo, Pa., Jan. 18th, 1804. Dear Journal. Our town ior the last ten days has worn quite a military appear- and they are "ray and hapr.v still." The members of Company E, 5th Penn'a Re serves, who went from our town, reached home on Thursday. They have a furlough of thirty-five days, at the expiration of which time they reiort to their regiments. They are a nobje, brave and patriotic lot of boys, as their many heroic deeds fully at test. Round Top is vividly before them, and that gallant charge, made by this noble corps, is as fresh in their memory as though it were made but yesterday. Said one of the privates of Co. E to me, "it was an aw ful scene we went in on the double quiek the Johnies stood their ground firmly until the cold steel came within c!o?e proximity, but when they found that we were the Re serves they 'got' and Round Top was ours." They have re-enlisted and say. that they are bound to put the old Flagon her "props" as she was in the days of pence. The boys look well. Father Abraham may well feel sanguine of wiping out the rebellion with such a crowd. They would not only wipe out the establishment of Jeff Davis and Co., but help the eagles of France out of Mexi co. There never was a braver, nobler, or more oliedient set of men marshalled under the military power of any country than those of the army of the Potomac. Their names will go down to the latest posterity, and fu ture generations pointing them out will say. there goes one that belouged to the army of the Potomac. Long may they live, and I hope that the end of this rebellion is nigh that these brave soldiers may soon return to their homes lay up their trusty "Min nies" turn the Parrotts into ploughshares and their swords to pruning hooks set un der their own vine and tig tree.and with the white haired children gathered around them eagerly listening to the "veteran" as he tells them of the great rebellion and live in the lap of luxury and smiling peace beaming on him at every turn. Glorious soldiers ! it is to you we owe a debt that never can be paid. Where would the peaceful homesj and the thriving villages, towns and cities of the old Keystone have been to-day, had it not been for the brave, and true army of the Potomac. Yes, soldiers, to you, we looked for protection to you we cave our confi dence to drive back the rebels from our homes. That you done so, let the historian depict as he pens the deeds of daring done on the heroic field of Antietam. That our confidence was not misplaced let the classic and victorious battle of Gettysburg be the answer. Had it not been for the valor of j our arms, the great, glorious and truly loy al State of Pennsylvania, would present a sad spectacle indeed. Desolation, and all the pestilence of war, brought on the Old Dominion, the "Mother of States," would have been our lot Poor and feeble tribute as it is, here is my and ten thousand times ten thousand thanks to every soldier in the army of the Potomac, specially, and the army of the Union generally. My prescription for the Snaik at Graham ton did not have the effect that I had so confidently expected. Well the best of rem edies fail sometimes, and I am not surprised that the dose proved a failure. I had no idea that the snaik was so thorougly copper ed, as he says he is in the last issue of your contemporary. He is also a hydra-headed snaik, and writhes over the appellation of "For the whole Union" and "One that nev er eees snaiks." I presume he means the whole Union of Snaiks, with an early edi tion of Lindley Murray's Grammar for their constitution, of Kirkham's for their by laws, Bullion's foi their penal code, and Jeff Pavis' last message as a precedent Poor snaik ! I fear his case is a hopeless one. He has letxjff his venom in this last effusion, until the reptile, true to his' tribe, very wise ly concludes to bite himself and retire to "Hell's mad houses," if they are not full. If they are, his Satanic majesty can ap point him coal heaver there is not the least doubt but he would make a capital one, being "coppered and copper-iastened and warran ted no waste timber." He would be placed on the roster and soon be iromoted to an A. No. 1 Devil-of-a-Cop, There seems to be some confusion in the G rahamton nest. For scarcely had the '"For the whole Union" Cop bit himself until "A fellow that never sees snaiks" uncoils his snaikship and rises to a "pint of tincture of corn." The pint is decided to be well taken, and he lets off his venom in a hetrogenous essay on the "intensely literary" attainments of one Le ROl a fellow that seems to be a deal of trou ble to the Copperheads. I am under many thanks to the generous snaik in noticing at length my letter of the 4th inst. I am not surprised at the snaik letting off his gas. It was too much for his copper proclivities, (on reading that portion of my letter he has o bliged me by quoting from so largely,) to con ain his virus. The idea of departure troubled him ; and the allusion to the boys of (Jo. D, 53d P. V. getting home, made him think that his -time of departure was nigh. And he thought right. So Lay on Macduff; And dam'nd be him that first cries, Hold, enough. Leuoi. Letter from North Carolina. Mr. Editor : I send you the enclosed letter from a sister who is living in North Carolina, and in order to give an idea of the state of affairs there, please give it a place in your paper, and oblige hor brother, B. Hartshorn. Harrellsville, IIahtfobd Co., N, C. ) Christmas, December l'5th. li-63. ) Dear Brother : I received a letter from you last week, written in February last. I also received one from Anna Ross and one from Amelia Clyde, recently ; and as 1 have an opportunity of writing now I will answer them ail to you. You write of the many changes that have taken place since my visit hence. I have no doubt there are. Chan ges must take place even in ordinary times, and we expect more now. When do you think this unhappy difficulty will be settled? Oh, that I couid see some prospt-ct of it soon. You are living away up there and know but little of its horrors; not so with me. I am here almost in the midst. I might say, of it. I frequently hear the booming of the cannon, and so near too, that it shakes the glass in our windows. Little did I once think that I would live to see such a state of aliairs in this our once happy country ; and that too, brought on by a set of political demagogues who want to get into power, and get the innocent into trouble. How true are the words of that eminent Milton when he said, "O shame to men ; Devils with devils damned firm con cord hold : Men only disagree of creatures rational, Though under hope of pardoning grace and God's piclaimiiig peace. Yet, still they live in hatred, enmity Hiid strit'j ; and long, cruel wars wasting the earth, each other to destroy." Pardon me, I almost forgot myself. We are all in very pood health and are doing well. Provisions are very high here, but we have pi -nty of everything we want. Our folks have a cotton factory of their own in operation Ium-c, and are doing well with it. Th y nuke from thirty to forty-rive blocks per day, :ind find ready sale for it at- thirty dollars per block. . We pay from $:;0 to $.30 per barrel for corn meal"; $120 for flour ; $1 50 per pound for green pork: from S to $10 per pound for coffee, and other things in proportion. But we, as a family, get all we want. Stock is also very high. Mr. S. bought a pair of match hor ses, a few days ago, for which he paid three thousand dollars. J hy goods are very high. Ordinary shilling cnlico is $0 a yard ; shoes have no price, people just get what they ask for f hem ; I have 1 jur pair of good ones. We have had a pleasant winter cold but no snow, very dry. I presume you are en jTying the sleighing season. How I wish I could join you in that luxury. I want to see you all once more. Is it not too bad that friends are prohibited from visitlnar friends, and nothing but want of peace the cause? But, how am I writing. I expect you will le out of patience with me for complaining so much, (as yon are not one of that kind.) I want you to write me a letter every month, and write everything you dare. I expect this to go by hand into your own lines, and therefore am not so particular in writing. Give my love to ail our friends, and ac cept for yourself and family my best wishes for your future welfare. With much kindness, j-our sister, MaryAxn Stf.yf.son. P. S. I got your letter unopened, contain ing the dime vou enclosed in it to pay the postage from Norfolk here. I will keep it to remember you. Write soon. Direct via Richmond, and I will get it sooner.

I recieved yours, and was glad to hear from you. The weather is beautiful here the sun shining in his beau ty. The wind flutters the green leaves, as though it was a mid-summer day. The boys are all well and in good spirits. We had a very hard storm on Wednesday last. The next morning we could gather up barrels of whiskey, hard tack, canteens, etc., and f Va grants of the wrecked ship along the sea shore. Some of the "old soldiers" got bul ly drunk. About this time we were ordered out for a lress parade our Captain having "smelt a rat" Our orderly called out com pany II, when it was ascertained that (eight privates and three non-commissioned officers were absent without leave, after which we were dismissed. Now the fun began ; some were bucked and gagged, and the rest were made to walk the ring for twelve hours with out anything to eat If men use them selves well, they will be used well by the of-ficers-y-punifchment is their own fault During the late storm, a relel ship was run into Hilton Head harbor, laden with turpentine, and was worth $150,000. The mate of the ship got the hands on his side, and put the Captain in irons, and then run into this harbor. Bully for the mate. I have been in the service now about four months. It appears but as a day. I shall never regret my trip to South Carolina. If the draft jtocs off. I expect that some of the j Bradford boys will go crazy.
