mhFT Raftsman's Jmtnial. BY B. J. ROW. OLEABFIELD, PA., MAEOE 9, 1864. THE "WAB NEWS. On Saturday night, February 27th, an important movement was initated in the Army of the Potomac. On Sunday some skirmishing took place on our right between Gen. Custer's cavalry and some rebels ; which attracted the attention of the rebel commander, whilst Gen. Kilpatrick was moving past their right towards Richmond. Custer had but 1,500 men and a section of ar tillery. On Monday he passed through Madison Court House, crossed the Rapidan and Rivanna, and went within three miles of Charlottesville. There the Rebels had hastily gathered a heavy force, and Custer wheeled about. Meantime, the Rebel cav alry had gathered in his rear, to the number of a whole brigade, and felt sure of captur ing his entire force, but by a series of bril liant movements, including some fine char ges and sharp fighting, our men got safely off, having burnt the long bridge over the Rivanna, several mills and factories ; taken 60 prisoners, many valuable horses, eight wagon loads of stores, six caissons, two for ges, &c The horses belonged to the Rebel army, and had been put out to board, so as to be in good condition for the Spring cam paign. The expedition has returned to the North side of the Rapidan. having accom plished the purpose intended. Not a man was killed, 'only 11 were wounded and 9 cap tured. Meanwhile Gen. Killpatrick crossed the Rapidan at Ely's Ford on Saturday morning at 4 o'clock. He surprised and captured the rebel pickets a captain and 1 5 men on the south sicta of the stream and moved towards Spottsylvania Court House, where he was on Monday at 11 o'clock. His force was 6,000 strong and was moving direct for Richmond. On his way SoutlvKilpatrick destroyed the greater portion of the Richmond and Fredericks burg and Virginia Central Railroads, thus destroying Lee's communications with Rich mond. The Richmond papers, admit that our troops penetrated to within three miles of that city, and relate how narrowly Lee escaped capture. - On Tuesday the 1st, Kilpatrick directed Col. Dahlgren with 500 men to make a reconnoisance to the James River, who attacked the rebels and drove them in on Richmond. The main attack having failed Dahlgren attempted to rejoin Kilpatrick at Meadow bridges, but did not make the junction. The greater portion of Dahlgren' s men, however, finally reached Kilpatrick' s main force", but Col. D. and about J0 men became seperated from his main body and have not been seen since. Kilpatrick reached Yorktown, having lost about 150 men in this raid towards the rebel capital. Later Col. Dahlgren and his men have arrived safely within our lines. The steamer, from New-Orleans, brings tjcws from Mobile. Our fleet opened a tremendous fire on Fort Powell on the morning of the 23d ult.. and it was thought that it could not holdout long. The Rebel ram Tennessee now lies nnder the protection of the guns of Fort Morgan. The women and children were being removed from the city. Admiral Farragut on board the Calhoun, was inside of Dauphin Island, and the flag ship Hartford was at Ship Island, forty miles west of Mobile. An attack on our Lln4-articsr fleet was anticipated, provided hat the Rebel rams were in good order and condition. Ob Tuesday March 1st there was some fighting at Deep Creek." ton miles from New Berne, but to what extent was not known. Next day the Norfolkians heard continuous and heavy artillery firing in that direction but nothing definite had been received at headquarters when the dispatch left. The Rebels are getting troublesome along the Albemarle Canal, and in the Dismal Swamp. The Rebel papers admit that at. the bat tle of Olustee, Florida, their force engaged consisted of eleven reginjents of infantry, four battalions of cavalrj'i and three lotter ies of artillery, while our own equal to two thirds of it. Another account sets down the Rebel loss at about 800 killed and wounded. The Rebels1 arc in a strait about whisky. On the publication of the new Currency bill, whisky rose from $90 to $120 per gallon. Brown sugar was up to $1,50 per pound by the hogshead, and none offering at that. Twenty-six Rebel deserters from Tennes see, who have been confined in the Old Capitol for the past two months, have just taken the oath of allegiance. The movements of Gen. Sherman are stili shrouded in mystery nothing definite hav ing been heard from him since he left Me ridian. Col. Fry has published an oflieial order sus pending the draft, and saying that a subse oueat day will be announced for its re? ump tion. The Pennsylvania Reserves. It would seem that Gen. George B. McClel lan has, in his ponderous report of the ope rations of the Army of the Potomac in Ma ryland and Virginia, cast some aspersions upon the noble Pennsylvania Reserves, and that the officers of that brave Corps have published a defense, in which they repel the attempt to fasten odium upon them. In re ferring to this subject the Pittsburg Gazette, of March 3d, says : "We have received from Col. J. P. Glass, one of our representatives at Harrisburg, a neatly printed pamphlet of ten pages de fending the Pennsylvania Reserves from the aspersions cat upon their soldierly qualities in (Jen. McClellan's report. It comprises Gen. KcCall's reports of the battles of Me-ehanicj-ville, Gaines' MilLs and New Market Cross Roads, together w,ith the General's testimony before the Joint Committee on the Conuuct of the War, and the testimony of many of the living division, brigade, line and Company olHeers of the entire Reserve corps, including Gen. Meade. The united testimony of Gen. McCall and his subordi nates'is, that the Reserves were not routed in the battle of New Market Cross Roads, as cfiarged by Gen. McClellan. On the con trary, never did soldiers fight more heroical ly and against greater odds than did the Re serves in the three battles we Lave named. And it is already a part of history that, if the brave Reserves had been properly sup ported in cither of those engagements, the enemy would not have gained the victory over us they did, when they compelled Mc Clellan to gather his once proud and power ful army under the protection of the gun boats in James river. It was generalship that was wanting on the Peninsula not pluck and endurance, neither of which sol dierly qualities was possessed in a greater degree by any other division of the Army of the Potomac than by the Pennsylvania Re serves." The Pennsylvania Reserves have borne the brunt of nearly every battle in which the army of the Potomac has been engaged. They have endured trial, hardship, and dan ger fought as no men ever fought before and covered themselves and the army to which they belong with a halo of glory. Af ter all that they have undergone, how must it chill the hearts of the veteran survi vers of the thousands who have so nobly fallen, to find their former commander imputing to them a want of courage on the battle-field ? Does McClellan expect to conceal his want of good generalship by casting aspersions upon those whom he commanded ? If so, he will find himself mistaken ; for when the peo ple are left to decide between the ability of McClellan and the courage of the noble ar my which was placed under him, it is not difficult to tell what will be the verdict. The Reserves have proven their courage on a score of battle-fields. The bones of hun dreds of their number lie bleaching in the swamps of the Chickahominy, and whether they fell from the deadly miasma or from rebel bullets, their death will, perhaps, bo attributed by the future historian to ' the same causs the mistakes of their com mander-in-chief, if not to incompetency. - w - The Progress of Opinion. Gen. Garfield, of Ohio, (late Chief of Statf to Gen. Rosecrans,) in a recent speech in Congress on the confiscation question, gave the following account of the progress of opinion, in the army of the United States, on the subject of the ultimate extinction of slavery : ''I remember to have said to a friend when I entered the army, ''Vou hate slavery ; so do I ; but I hate disunion more. Lot us drop the slavery question and fight to sus tain the Union; When the supremacy of the government has been re-established, we will attend to the other question." i;I started out with that position taken in good faith." as did thousands of others of all parties. Rut the army soon found that, do what it jvould, the black phantom met it everywhere, in the camp, in the bivouac, on the battle-field and at all times. It was a ghost that would not be laid. Slavery was both the strength and weakness of the enemy. His strength for it tilled his fields and fed his legions ; his weakness for in the hearts of slaves dwelt dim prophecies that their deliverance from lioudagc would be the outcome of the war. "The negroes came from the cotton fields ; they swam rivers, they climbed mountains: they came through jungles, in the darkness and storms of the night, to tell us that the enemy was coming here or coming there. Tliev were our true friends in every case. There has hardly been a battle, a inarch, or any important event or the war, where the friend of our cause, the black man. has not rcen found truthful and helpful and alway devotedly loyal. The conviction forced it self upon the mind of every .-oIui?r that, be hind the rebel army of solditrs, the black army of laborers was feeding and sustaining the rebellion, and there could be no victor' till its main support be taken away. "Gentlemen on the other side, you tell me that this is an abolition war. If you plea.e to sav so 1 grant it. 1 he rapid current of events has made the army of the republic an abolition army. I can find in the ranks a thousand men who are in favor of sweeping away slavery to everv dozen that desire to preserve it. Thev have been where they have seen its malevolence, its baleful effect unon the country and the Union, and they demand that it shall be swept away." Place it permanently on record in your memories soldiers of Pennsylvania regiments that the so-called Democratic Senators in the Pennsylvania Legislature voted against the proposed amendment to the Constitution, allowing you to vote. Remember, also, that this amendment has been rendered ne cessary by the decision of three Democratic Judges of the Supreme Court of Pennsyl vania, Lowrie, Woodward and Thompson, who so interpeted the law, that the instant a man left the joys of home to risk his life in defence of his county he forfeits the great right of suffrage ! These are things never to bfl jTorgotten by the soldiers or by their friends. THE RECORD AFFIRMED. On the 20th of January we published the "Record" of the proceedings in the Penu'a State Senate on the resolutions "recommen ding an increase cf pay to our soldiers" and "giving them the privilege of voting while in the military service." Some of the Cop perhead minority then opposed these reso lutions for the reason, as they alleged, that the Senate was not fully oganized. Since then Dr. St. Clair has been elected to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of Maj. Harry White. The Senate being now full, and the retaining of Mr. Penny as Speaker, by the majority of that body, the former plea for voting against the resolu tions referred to no longer exists. But, how stands the record now ? In the Senate, on Friday, March 4th, the House bill, No. 117, came up on third reading, and was read as follows : Resolved, by the Senate and House, of Representatives of the Commomcealih of Pennsylvania, in General Assembly met, and it is hereby enacted by the authority of the same, That our representatives in Congress be requested to vote for, and use their influ ence for the passage of a law increasing the pay of private soldiers and non-commissioned officers in the army of the United States. On the final passage of the bill, the yeas and nays wore required by Mr. Beardslee and Mr. Clyiner, and were as follows : Yeas Messrs. Chamrneys. Con nell, Dun lap, Fleming. Graham, Iloge, Householder, Johnson, Kinsey, Lowry, McCandless, Nichols, Ridgway. St. Clair, Turrell, Wil son. Worthington and Penney, Speakei 18. Nays Messrs. Beardslee, Bucher, Cly mer, Donovan, Glatz, Hopkins, Lamberton, Latta, McSherry, Montgomery, Reilly, Smith, Stark, Stein and Wallace 15. . So the bill passed finally. Every "Dem ocrat," but Kinsey of Bucks county, voted against increasing the pay of the soldiers. On the same day the proposed amend ments to the Constitution were taken up. Among them is the following section : Section IV. Whenever any of the qual ified electors of this Commonwealth shall be in any actual military service under a re quisition from the President of the United States, or by the anthority of this Common wealth, such electors may exercise the riht of suffrage in all elections of the citizens, under such regulations as are or shall be prescribed by law, as fully as if they were present at their usual place of election. The vote on the passage of this amend ment stood as follows : Yeas Messrs. Cham pneys, Con nell, Dun lap, Flemins.Graham. Hoge, Householder, Johnson, Kinsey, liowrv. M'Candless, Nichols Ridgway, St. Clair, Tiirrell. Wilson, Worthington and Penney, Speaker 18. Nays Messrs. Beardsjee, Donovan, Glatz, Lanilerton, Latta, Montgomery, Smith, Stark, Stein, and Wallace 10. So the amendment was agreed to--Kin-sey, Democrat, voting in the aflinuative. Five "Democrats'' Uucher, Clyuier, Hop kins, M' Sherry and Reily dodged the question ; thereby admitting the infamy of the course adopted by their leaders in the Senate. We submit the above extracts from the record, to the calm reflection of the people of Pennsylvania. Tho above affirmance of their former vote, we presume, leaves no further doubt as to the Copperhead leaders being opposed to giving our soldiers a vote while in the military service of therir gov ernment. We observe that our Copperhead neigh bors pitched into the editor of the Harris burgh Telegraph, last week, in a very "ly ing" sort of style they applying thato lite little word (lie) no less than seven times, in one short article, to some remarks of the Telegraph. We would advise our Harris burg contemporary to be more careful in fu ture remarks in reference to "the Knights of the Golden Circle" meeting in the Surveyor General's office. But why need our neigh bors "take on so" about the allusions of the Telegraph? Do they belong to the Knights? And was either of them present at the meet ing referred to? A General Bill is now before the Legisla ture, which, will undoubtedly soon become a law, legalizing the action of Boards of School Directors, Township Supervisors, and County Commissioners, levying, as sessing and collecting tax for the payment of bounties to volunteers, for the purpose of filling their respective quotas under the call of the President for five hundred thou sand men. The bill is said to be broad and comprehensive, rendering local legislation in the matter unnecessary. Hard Rcn the editors of the Copper head organ, last week, for something to re lieve them of a little venom otherwise, they would not have snapped at and perver ted a simple news item which we,in common with most papers in the country, published two weeks since. Whether a negro is half as good as a white man, we don't pretend to say ; but of one thing we are convinced, that many of them are doing more to crush out the rebellion than our Copperhead neigh bors. The United States District-Attorney has received instructions from Washington to procure the extradition of the Confederate officers and crCw of the Chesapeake, now in confinement at St. Johns N. B. The rev enue cutter Miami was to sail last Thursday evening tm this business. Michael Hahn, the Free State candidate, has been elected Governor of Louisiana, by a handsome majority over both his competitors. CALL FOR A NATIONAL CONVENTION. Washington, D. C, Feb. 22. The National Union Committee met at the residence of Hon. Edward D. Morgan at noon to-day, and was called to order by that gentleman as its chairman. The Hon. Edward McPherson, of Penn sylvania, was elected Secretary of the com mittee in place cf Hon. George G. Fogg, of New Hampshire, who is absent iroin the country. Upon consultation, a call was unanimous ly adopted for a national convention in the following terms : "The undersigned, who, by original ap pointment or subsequent designation to fill vacancies, constitute the executive commit tee created by the National Convention held at Chicago on the loth day of May, 1860, do hereby call upon all qualified voters, who desire the unconditional maintenance of the Union, the supremacy of the Constitution, and the complete suppression of the rebel lion, with the cause thereof, by vigorous war and all apt aud efficient means, to send del egates to a convention, to assemble at Balti more on Tuesday, the 7th day of June, 1864, at 12 o'clock noon, for the purpose of pre senting candidates for the offices of Presi dent aud Vice President of the United States. Each State having a representation in Congress will be entitled to as many dele gates as shall be equal to twice the number of electors to which such State is entitled inthe electoral Collegeol the United States." A resolution was also adopted inviting the territories and the District of Columbia to send delegates, subject to the determination by the Convention of their right to vote. The Committee agreed to meet again at the call of the chairman. The members present were as follows : Edward D. Morgan. New York, chairman. Chas. J. Oilman, M.iine. Lawrence Brainerd, Vermont. John B. Goodrich, Massaffhu.-etts. ThOs. G. Turner. Rhode Island. Gideon Welles, Connecticut. Denning Duer, New Jersey. Edward McPherson, Pennsylvania. Nathaniel B. Smithcrs, Delaware. James F. Wagner, Maryland. Thos. Spooner, Ohio. Henry S. Lane, Indiana. Ebenezer Reck, Illinois. H. M. IToxie, Iowa. W. S. Washburn, Minnesota. Cornelius Cole, California. O. II. Irish, Nebraska. J oseph Gerhautd, District of Columbia. The committee was entirely harmonious in their proceedings, and adjourned in the best possible manner. Affairs at Harkisburo. On Monday a-week the new Senator, Dr. St. Clair was escorted to the Capitol by a grand procession of four thousand Union, men and sworn into oHiee. The Senate is now in working order, the Union men have one of a majority. The present chief Clerk and other subordinate officers have been elected, all the Democrats refusing to vote. The resolution calling up on the Judiciary Committee to inquire into the expediency of holding a special election to amend the Constitution, so as to give the soldiers in the field the right to vote at the fall election, has passed both houses. The copperhead Democracy will, we think, soon begin to see the folly of their former course. They have retarded the work of legislation for almost two months, thinking by such a course to aid the traitors in the South, and have gained nothing in the end but the hon est and well deserved censure of good and loval citizens. Danville American. Arrested for Ro ruing the 31 ail. On the 25th Februarj', Frantz Bahr was ar rested in Northampton county. Pa., for stealing letters from the mail between Eas ton and Kellertown. Bahr was the mail carrier for the past nine years, and is at present a man pver fifty years of age. The loss of some valuable letters, addressed to the post ofi jj-j along thi route, induced Special Agent Row to give his official atten tion to the matter, and on the day named above, Bahr was detected, in the act of ab stracting packages from the mail. The evi dence is conclusive, one letter being found in his possession, and the fragments of an other discovered hidden underneath some stones at the side of the road. On the 26th, after a hearing before U. S. commis sioner Smith, of Philadelphia. Bahr was committed for trial at the next Term of the U. S. District Court. Loyal So it-hern Men. The Union of ficers who recently escaped from Richmond, bear testimony to the assistance they, receiv ed from negroes in their hazardous under taking of making their way from the rebel capital to the Union lines. Wherever they found a colored man they were sure to find a friend ; and in numerous instances they received food from, and were piloted on the way by these humble, yet true, friends of the Union cause. In an account of the es cape it is stated : "After the first officers had discovered themselves to the negroes and asked for food, on the Chickahominy, the negroes organized into relief squads and. searched the wood- for fugitives, carrying them food from their scanty rations, and helping them in every way in their power." Plain Talk. At a Democratic caucus in Hartford, Connecticut, a veteran speaker smashed the prepared slate by a few ener getic remarks, of which the following is a sample : This war which is now going on in the land was brought on by filibustering, cheat ing and fraud, and nothing else. If it hadn't been for Southern Democrats bolt ing form the National Convention at Charles ton, we shouldn't have had any war! Swin dling brought on the war, aud the same spirit is being manifested here to-night. I have been a Democrat for eighteen years, and I want to know who I vote for without any packing about it. I move that the re port be tabled, and that we proceed to bal lot. Mr. Lincoln and the Soldiers. A letter from Grant's army, recently received in Washington, says that nine-tenths of the men composing it are in favor of Mr, Lin coln's re-election,and will vote for him if they have the opportunity. On the 22d of Feb ruary votes were taken in several brigades and divisions, and out of nearly thirteen thousand ballots polled, only five hundred and eighty-two were cast against him. the Housatonic, off Charleston, was itself destroyed at tnc same time, Present to G en.
