THE WAB HEWS. .
Gen. Peck thus sums up the result of re
cent operations in Xorth Carolina : "Beside
the repulse of Gen. Picket3 army at New
berne, the following have been captured
6 officers, 2S1 prisoners and dangerous Reb
els, 500 contrabands, 550 arms and accouter
ments, 133 horses and niu'es, 11 bales of
cotton, 1 piece of artillery, caisson complete,
1 flag, many saddles, harness and ragons.
Much property of Rebel Government Las
been destroyed from inabillity to remove it,
as appears by a partial list: 250,000 pounds
of pork, 80 barrels of lard, 75 barrels of
meat, 20,000 bushels of corn, 32 barrels of
beef, 5 hogsheads of sugar, 5,000 empty sacks,
1 corn-mill, 10 wagons, 1 tun of tobacco, 18
mules, 2 warehouses of salt, and 2 extensive
ealt manufactories."
The Navy Department has received the
details of two expeditions Bent out from the
gunboat Tahoma during the past month, the
objects of which were successfully accom
plished. Having marched through swamps
and dense .woods a distance of four miles,
they destroyed the rebel Government salt
works at Sl Mark's, Fla. These were sev
en miles in extent, and connected with them
were, among other things, 390 salt kettles,
170 furnaces, and 165 houses Ind shanties. .
Similar works, ten miles distant, shared the
same fate. The property destroyed is esti
mated at $2,000,000.
On Wednesday morning, as two members
of the Michigan Cavalry were passing in the
vicinity of Aunandale, they were captured
by a party of four guerrillas. Sudsequently,
while two of the guerrillas were some distance
off, counting the greenbacks taken from the
cavalrymen, one of them drew a revolver and
shot the two who were guarding them, and
both made their escape. The cavalrymen
returned to Alexandria in the afternoon, mi
nus their money.
A portion of the Marine Brigade, under
Capt Crandell. recently surprised a Rebel
oa rap east of Poit Gibson, Miss., capturing
47 prisoners and releasing five Union sol
diers taken at the Big Black.
Two Union prisoners, while on their route
from Richmond to Americas, Ga., froze to
death or died of starvation in the railroad
cars, and twelve others had to be left in the
hospital at Raleigh.
"A Dog's Burial."
The Richmond Uxaminer, in a character
istic article in reference to the death and
burial of Col. Dahlgren, gives a description
of how the body of the dead hero was "rid
dled by avenging Southern bullets" how
it was "stripped naked androbbedof all the
valuables upon it," and how "the fingers
were cut off to secure the diamond rings up
on them," and then goes on to tell what had
become of the mutilated remains as follows:
"Yesterday afternoon the body was re
moved from the car that brought it to the
York River railroad depot and given to the
boot of earth selected to receive it. Where
that spot is no one but those concerned in
its burial know or care to tell. It was a
dog's burial, without coffint winding-sheet
or service. Friends and relatives at the
North need inquire no f urther ; this is all
they will know he is buried a burial that
befitted the mission upon which he came."
Such were the savageriss practiced upon
the dead body of this gallant Northern
brave. First his "fing3r3 were cut off, "and
then his mutilated remains consigned to "a
dog's burial" Is it possible that the "chiv
airy" of the South "the brothers of the
sires of Seventy-Six," could condescend to
such brutalism ? - Yea, 'tis too I rue ! What
think our Copperhead .neighbors of their
''dear Southern brothers" now
Speech of Hon. G. W. Schofield.
Thb week we publish the speech of Hon.
G. Vi Scofield, our member of Congress,
delivered in the House of Representatives
on February .24th. His speech is highly
complimented by numerous Washington
correspondents, and by those who have read
it. The Cleveland Herald styles it an
"admirable speech," and a correspondent of
the Buffalo Express says:
"On the subject of speakers let me' pay
that one of the best practical political
speeches of the session was delivered last
week by Judge Scofield, of the Erie and
Warren district, Pennsylvania, in reply to
Mr. Dawson of the same state. It was the
progressive patriotic Pennsylvania of to-day,
against the old fogy pro-slavery Pennsylva
nia of Buchanan and Pierce's misrule. It
is being largely subscribed for as a campaign
document, and is more damaging to the
"neutrals han any speech you have pub
lished," -
We hope that -our readers will -give it a
careful perusal, as Mr. Scofield shows up
: the "neutrals," or "peace" men in the
Jibrth, jq their true cobra.

Mora "Abolitionism."
Mr. C. O B. Bryant, a New York city
Democrat, on March 14th introduced into
the N. Y. State legislature a series of reso
lutions declaring that "a speedy and success
ful conclusion of the war should be the chief
and controlling purpose ot the Government'
: that ' Slavery is practically annihilated by
the war" that the "final and constitutional
abrogation of slavery would clear the path of
our manifest destiny, (the exclusive prerog
ative of Democratic institutions on the A
merican continent)" and that "our Sena
tors in Congress be instructed and our'Rep
resentatives be requested to prepare such
just and proper amendments to the Consti
tution of the United States as will forever
prohibit and terminate the system of Afri
can Slavery," as the best means to termi
nate the struggle now progressing against
an atrocious Releliion.
Truly, a great change seems to have taken
place in the minds of many of the "Demo"
crats" recently. A few months since, the
Alpha and Omega of their argument was
"The Constitution as it is, and the Union as
it was ;" but now we find them in the front
rank of "Abolitionism" and rroPosino -niendments
to that same Constitution so as
to terminate and forever prohibit slavery in
the United States. "Indeed, it is somewhat
amusing to see these great sticklers for the
"Constitution as it is,J turning such wonder
ful summerEets and it may not be many
months hence when we. shall find them a
mongst the most ultra anti-slaveryitcs in the
North. The New 1 ork Herald has taken
the lead in this "amendment" movement,
and the lesser lights of the so-called Democ
racy are, one by one, falling into line; and
our readers must not be surprised, if they
should 2nd, ere long, our Copptrhead neigh
bors and Wendell Philips and Wm. Lloyd
Garrison in the same boat, and sailing a
long on the tide of "Abolitionism" as "hale
fellows well met." Yea, "what a peoples !'
Even that once despised "Abolitionism ' is
fast losing its "terrors" with them, and is
being "rolled under their tongue as a sweet
and precious morsel."
Another Draft Ordered.
General Order No 109. Washing
ton, March 15. The following sjwcial order
has just been issued by the President :
United States Executive Mansion, )
Washington. March 14, 1864.
Grades to supply the force rniirod to be
dratted for the navy, and to provide an ade
quate reserve force, all contingencies in ad
dition to the five hundred thousand men
called for on February 1st, 1864, the call is
hereby made and a draft ordered ibr 200,
000 men for the military service of the army,
navy and marine corps of the United States.
The proportional quotas for the different
wards, towns, townships, precincts, election
disricts and counties will be made known
through the Provost Marshal General's Bu
reau, and account will be taken of the cred
its and deficienee on former qnctas. The
15th day of April, 1864., is designated as
the time up to which the numbers required
in each ward of a city, town, dtc, may be
raised. Voluntary enlistments and drafts

etc., which shall not have filled the quota
assigned to it within the time designated
for the number required to fill said quota.
The draft will be commenced as soon af
ter the 15th of April as' practicable. The
Government bounties, as now paid, will be
continued until April 15, 1S64, at which
time the additional bounties cease. On
and after that date one hundred dollars
bounty only will be paid as provided by the
act approved Julv 22. 1861. A. Lincoln.

Death of Col. Dahlgren.
"By an oversight we omitted to notice last
week, the fact, that Col. Dahlgren had not
arrived safe, within our lines, but that he
was killed near King and Queens Court
House he and his command having been
ambushed by some guerrillas, but who claim
to be noncombattants residing in that neigh
borhood. On learning the above tacts Gen.
Butler, requested Gen. Kilpatrick to send a
froce to the vicinity where Dalhgreu was
killed, and disperse the banditti congrega
ted there. Accordingly Col. Onderdonk
with his command was dispatched thither,
and succeeded in dispersing the rebel guer
rillas, who were in a camp near Corollin's
Siore. They numbered about 1200 20 of
whom were captured. A large amount of
grain, and several mills and store-houses
were also d est royed.
How Is It? Our Copperhead neighbor, last
week said -the only reason why the Democratio
Senators voted against the resolution asking for
u additional pay to the soldiers" was "because
" they are not an organized body." How about
those same Senators' vote on the amendment to
the Constitation, giving oar soldiers the privi
lege of voting while in the military service of
their country Did they vote against that amend
ment, upon its final passage, 'letzrc.it''1 the Sen
ate was "not an organized body'"? Pray, neigh
bors, couldn't you enlighten your readers a little
on that point? Can't you quote a line from the
Constitution of Pennsylvania to help your friends
oat of that scrape ?
Kentucky. The spirit that will actuate
this State, inspite of defective and an ac
tive rebellious purpose, is indicated by the
following quotation from Governor Bram
lett's recent address: "We must correct
umust or unconstitutional legislation by le
gal appeals to the constituted authorities of
the Government, . and through the ballot
box in the constituted mode. This is the
only true mode of maintaining the Constitu
tion, the Union, and tho enforcement of the
laws. The mere act of enrolling the names
of slaves does not affect any right of the
citizen. No draft has been ordered, nor do
we know that a draft will be ordered."

PE2TCTSYLVA2nA ITEMS.
On Wednesday, March 9th, a man in the
U.-S. uniform was found dead in-the eddy
of the Susquehanna, near Forty Fort. The
head was badly bruised and the breast had
marks of violence. From the fact of the
nose being injured it was inferred that he
had not fallen upon his face, but had met
with foul play and been thrown in the river.
On Monday morning, the 14th another body
of a U. 8. soldier was found drowned in the
same eddy. They both had on Invalid
Corps uniforms.
A son of Mr. J aeob Wire, rcsidwig near

engaged in working at a threshing machine
at the barn of Henry Shearer, when Lis sum
was caught by a pulley, winding iteouiplete

manner. His arm was skillfully amputated
near the shoulder about six hours after the
accident occurred.
The father of C. Earle inCatasauqua died
very suddenly on Thursday evening, March
10th. w hile attending religious service in the
Presbyterian church. Just as the Church
bell had ceased ringing, and while his son
was ascending the pulpit t5 officiate, the old
veteran of the cross fell forward and expi
red. He was aged about CO years.
The body of an unknown man was found
in the water tank on the Pennsylvania Rail
road, several miles east of Greensburg, last
week. It is supposed that he Las been in
the tank about two months, a cap Laving
been found there at that time.
John Coyle employed at the coal wcrks v.t

assignees. Some persons in this place were
"sold"' by that institution.
The dwelling house and household goods
of David Leidy, of Woodberry township,
Blair county, were consumed by fire several
weeks since.
A lad named Jackson Rose was acciden

the 500.000 call.
Another "Negro" Story. As onr
Copperhead neighbors are very much given
to publishing the doings ot "niggers" in the
army, they should also publish the statement
of an officer commanding in the 54th Msus
sachuse ts (colored) regiment at the battle
of Olustee. He says :
"Before going into battle, the 54th Mas
sachusetts (Colored) Volunteers wrcre double-quicked
for a mile, and as they went rn.
Gen. Seymour said to Col. Hallowell, "the
day is lost ; yon must go in and save the
corps." We did go in and did save it ;
checked the enemy, held the field, and were
the very last to leave. We covered the re
treat." Perhaps, however, this is an "Abulition
lie," because the negro regiment saved the
army of Gen. Seymour from utter annihi
lation. Charged with Robbing the Mails.
On the 10th March, Mr. ltow, Agent of the
Post office Department, arrested Wm. B.
Thompson, at Laceyville. Wyoming Coun
ty, Pa., for rpbbir the mails passing
through that office. Thompson is a physi
cian and occupied the same room which is
used for a post office. He was sworn as As
sistant Postmaster, and having access at all
times to the office, was enabled to rifle let
ters without the knowledge of the Post Mas
ter. When arresied he had in his side
pocket a letter writ ton by Mr. Bow, and in
his pocket-Look the money which had leen
enclosed in it. A hearing was "had before
U. S. Commissioner Parsons, at Williams
port, on the 11th, and Thompson held to
bail in the sum of $5,000 for bis appearance
fir trial at the June Term of the United
States District Court.
We Stand Corrected. The editors of the Cop
perhead organ, in their lat issue, remind us that
we "failed to state the fact that a negro betray
" ed the force under Dahlgren. for which be was
" hong " We are sorry that we inadvertantly
slighted our neighbors' ''friend" on this occasion,
for had it not been for that loyal (?) '-Southern
brother," their "dear brother"' Jeff might have
swung from that "friendly limb" in his stead.
But really, we are at a loss to know whether we
should ask the negroes or onr neighbors pardon
for tha omission referred to.
Sunday Always. By different nations
every day in the week is set apart for public
worship: Sunday by Christians: Monday
by the Greeks; Tuesday by the Persians";
Wednesday by the Assyrians; Thursday
by the Egyptians; Friday by the Turks;
Saturday by the Jews. Add to this the di
urnal revolutions, and it is apparent that
every moment is Sunday somewhere.
We presume, our Copperhead neighbors
will give their readers a long dissertation on
another draft, this week interspersed with
"We told you so," "Just as we expected,"
and "another, and another, and still another
draft will be ordered until the last man and
last dollar wiil be forthcoming," etc., etc.

Letter from Philipsbxrrg,'Pa.
Philipsburg, Pa., Mar. 21st, 1S64.
Deab Journal : It has often occurred
to my thinking machine, why it is that men
who profess to be true and loyal to the Gov
ernment, are constantly uttering or doing
something to cripple the "l auniiig of the
machine. ' I have often noticed that these
men have always something to say about
"Abe Lincoln's currency," "Chae"s green
backs" or some other contemptuous term
for the government paper, every time they
happen to have any of it. Yet if they have
money to pay out, and have greenbacks and
country funds on hand, they invariably run
out the latter. The greenbacks are kept in
reserve, and are never called on until the las:t
country bank note has fled the reign of the
gum band. Only a few days ago I heard
some of the prominent financiers of our
change, say that the government paper was
depreciating more rapidly than ever, that
the day would soon be when greenbacks would
be as valueless as the continental scrip.
When asked their reasons for making such
assertions they replied : "why see the ad
vance in gold, it is now selling at GS (n 09,
and likely to go up. I tell you, he contin
ued, that this paper currency must soon re
act. It is in good repute now, but Chase
can not avert the blow it nmt certainly re
ceive, when he. is called on for the interest."
Now these same men are of the profess-to-be-true-and-loyal
chiis. Their doctrine is,
you can't coerce the South, you can not
bring them to terms, better to make peace
and let them go. How is it that the gentle
man can see such a favorable sight for tlf
Southern Confederacy (with their paper at
400 (V; 000 percent below gold arid exchange
readily with our prisoners $10 of Confede
rate paper for a i greenback) and can see
nothing but hopeless ruin in the futnre, at
no very distant day either, for the govern
ment of the United States with gold only,
now, GO per cent ahead of her paper? Win
do they say a reaction must take place when
the interest on this paper z due, and a fur
ther depreciation follow ' Look at the re
sources of Secretary Chase and then stanl
in amazement, ye howling whelps, that can
see nothing but ruin in thq distance. On
the 10th instant, there was in the U. S.
Treasury, over and above all drafts for coin,
$19,070,479 91. The estimated receipts to
July 1st, 1804, upon the same ratio as it is
commg in now. is $.,-2,272,175 ; making the
total amount of gold on hand $41,942 054
91. The whole amount required to pay the
interest on the public debt. m to the 1st of
July U $:20,S49,199 92. Does that picture
look much like a depreciating of U. S. gov
ernment paper? Tak'? a peep at the U. S.
Bonds, and now do they stand ? 5-20s are
selling-at 111 id, 112. And yet. thes mis
erable wretches say, the Kinds arc worth
less. The great, grand trouble is that they
wish it was o. If they only had the pow
er of making the people believe that gieen
backs were nothing more than so much
brown paper, then ihey would rejoice and
the hopes of electing one of .their party to
the Presidency revive visions of fat offi
ces illuminate their now soulless countenan
ces, and divisions of the spoils be their con
stant thought.
Another snaik has been roused from his
den. What a stir this ink corroded pen of
mine does make among them. Faithful
pen ; little did I think when 1 tirt to..L- you
up, that you would make the snaiks howl in
such countless numbers. The first snaik
that uncoiled his thoughts and let 5y his
venom was "Citizen," then come "Demas,"
"Democrat," "Diedriek Kxline," "One that
never sees snaiks," "The v. hole Union"
(of enaiks) "Facetine." "Ar-us," "Yout.?
Nester," and, now, alas, 1 ear the end is
come for he resorts to the extremity for a
non-de-plume and signs "John Boots" to
his fantastical cuiogium of Copjierheadism.
Oh ! Johny Boots what a social mistake
that you had aot been down in Dixie before
this "cruel war" broke out. You would
certainly have voluntarily impressed your
parliinentarian qualifications for a nude poet
correspondent, and have long ere this won
the hand of a daughter of the Sunny South
by your truthful ami lifelike contortions of
the snaik. Wonderful John ! Ten thou
sand thanks for your kindness in speaking of
my "eavesdropper." It is refreshing to
ones self to know that even John Boots en
tertains the idea that the grade of "eaves
dropping" has been revived in this "gay
and happy" town. The occupation of
eavesdropper at this present day, however,
is not so lucrative as in former years. The
"rounds" are considerably extended towhat
they were in Johnv's palmiest davs. The
classic shadesof "Bullllnn," "Goose mil,"
"Stone Quarry" and "Factory," were the
outride limits. But now, they extend to
Loch Lomond, '"Slab Town," "Forge" and
oeuii-oecasiouaily to the Black Bear. John,
you are a human snaik, and would certainly
not suppose that I could conscientiously im-
Ejse on a"PhaiasaieaT' to go all that round?
id he run against you when you were
eavesdropping a short bit 3'curself ? Capi
tal ! Wny did you not come down on him
for a violation of the constitution, or an ar
bitrary intrusion on the Sqmtiriinn i If
ever there wsis a brilliant production penned
supporting the pillars of copperhcadisni,
rank and tank, 'tis that of Johny Boots.
The same true and familliar style of the vet
eran Johnv to the crossing of a t and the
dotting of an t as in day of yore. So truth
fully true, indeed, that the reading over,
brings to my recollection the favorite au
thors, cited by John. The clergy, was al-
ways a troublesome point-for him. Poor
follow ! he has at length gave vent to his
venom, and I hope will recover from the
spasmodic flight of his brain and not run
into my "Pharasaical' ' again, or I shall is
sue imperative orders to have him superan
uatcd and marked supervacaneous.
Iago Argus has been at a weddins. I
doubt very much if he was invited. If he
was, they must be hard up for company
down at Grahamton. I suppose, of course,
be -stood up with the cquire when the cere
mony was going through, and made him
self conspicuous when the side-board was
opened. Imagine lu3 gyration.--, on taking
something good. Mr. Hessich might have
saved some of his best brandies, at least half
a gallon, had he slipped Argus a quarter.
He ba3 raised the cry of his colleague.
"Young Nest er,1' "let us alone." But I
am on the track and o long as I succeed in
making such rotton snaiks as him howl, I
can not heed his venom. This I ago Argus
snaik is trying to create a sensation among
the fair ones of our town, but his precedents
in a certain affair in which there was venom
blended with a supercargo of pelf-absonan-cy
is too well known to them, and they, in
stead of ang hin recipe for tho extermina-
tjn of Leroi, would turn it to account on
the blessed snaik. He dies hard writhes,
coils, uncoils, hisses and raves at my pen
calls , the snaiks to his assistance. They
come, produce effusion of copperhead ism
and die.
He now makes a dying request for the la
dies of Philipsburg to assist him in using
me up. lou are in the wrong box Argus.
The ladies of this town are true, loyal and
patricftic and they would say to you
