CLEAEFIELD, PA., MAECH 30, 1864.
THE WASlfEWS.
A despatch from Cairo, dated March 2o,
say 9 we have good news from the Red river
expedition, which comes from undoubted
anthority. Gea. A. J. Smith landed his
force3 from transports a few mile3 below Fort
De Ru3y. The rebel General Dick Taylor
promptly marched against hira with his
whoje force and attacked him in the rear.
General Smith, instead of attempting to
keep np communication with the river pro
ceeded, by forced marches, towards the fort.
When Taylor saw the trick, he started for
the same-destination, and for a time the race
seemed doubtful. Bat finally the Yankees
came in about three hours ahead, capturing
the fort and 1 1 gun, four of them parrots,
one eleven inch and several thirty-two poun
ders ; also, 300 prisoners. TJiis gives Gen.
Smith a strong foothold in the country, and
will enable theAdmiral to proceed to Alexan
dria with his gunboats without opposition.
A dispatch from Chattanooga of the 20th
says, the railroad is completed to Ringgold,
and a train went down to-day. A number of
promincatjo21cer3 visited the front and found
all quiet. Eighty Rebel cavalry made a dash
over Taylor Ridge yesterday and carried off
three Union citizens. There have been no
other Rebel movements.
A letter from Key west to the Philadel
phia Inquirer states that the rebel iron clad
Tennessee, which got ashore lately, has settled
into the sand-bank, and will probably be a
total loss, having already bilged and keeled
over, so we are even the Tennessee and At
lanta for the Wcehawken and Housatonic.
Key West is healthy.
Several refugees from Rockingham county,
Virginia, have just arrived at Ilarrisburgh,
Pennsylvania. They left early in February,
and after much suffering succeeded in passing
the rebel picket3 and getting into our lines.
For several consecutive nights they camped
in the woods without shelter or food.
Advices from Vicksburg of March 15th
report a large number of fires. Several gov
ernment storehouses had been set on fire by
incendiaries on that day, and the large rail
road depot and several adjoining buildings
were burned, consuming large quantities of
government property.
Capt. Hannegm, a daring guerrilla,' was
taken on Thursday,near Freestone Point, Va,
by a scouting party of the 1st Michigan Cav
alry, lie had passes from Jeff Davis to go
wherever he pleased, and is well known for
his blustering that he would never be taken
a'ive.
The Raleigh Progress announces that Gen.
D. H. Hill assumes command at Charleston,
and that Bauregird goes to the southwest.
Twenty-five Yankee prisoners escaped while
under guard, thirty-six miles north of Ra
leigh, en route for Americus, Georgia.
By order of the Secretary of War the fol
lowing articles of clothing will hereafter be
gratuitously issued to soldiers upon their dis
charge from sina!l-por hospitals: One pair
of trousers, one blouse, one shirt, one pair
drawers, one pair socks and one cap. .
Gen. Banks haa left New Orleans with
a force composed of 13,000 cavalry, with
twenty-four light guns ia four brigades,
under Gen. Lee, and will sweep across the
country and thence into Texas.
The Army of the Cumberland is probably
as large now as it has been at any former pe
riod. Returned regiments have for some
time been passing through Nashville at the
rate of 2,000 ahy.
Thirty-two vessels are ready for pea, but
are waiting for crews. The transfer of sailors
from the army will, it is supposed, supply
the demand.
The Last Call for Troops.
Tbe last call, although it seems to follow
swiftly proceeding one for 500,000 cien, de
rives no particular hardtdiip from that cir
cumstance, inasmuch as by settling up old
credits, by allowing for navsl quotas, and by
other previously neglected methods of ad
justment, the additional 200,000 required
does not involve the raising of many new
recruits. Hence, it finds comparative few
arrearages any where, and can be readily
met if the people will take the work in
hand, each one giving himself, his exertions
or his money, as he may feel it to be his du
ty. There should be no delay. The time
for volunteering is less than one month.
We believe that with the advent of Gen.
Grant to the chief command of our armies,
a new and better era begins, and we hail
this large augmentation of our forces as one
of the most encouraging signs of the times.
Erie Gazette . .
The Governor of Georgia has been deliv
ering Jbis views on the way to get peace.
The earn of them is, thai whenever the
South obtains a victory she should proclaim
a wiilingn-566 to. end the war by th STorth
rvfnizing the Confederacy.
Copperheads and the Draft. I
The facihtv with tcLI,.m alii
ii u a v. vrua aj-vj- j
creeds and sects, have adapted themselves
to every great measure of the Government
that had for its object the supperssion of the
Rebellion, is one of the most remarkable
features cf the history of the war. How
ever great may have been the opposition at
first, in a comparatively short period it pas
sed awa', and the measure was not only a
quiesed in, but approved. The Emancipa
tion Proclamation, so bitterly opposed 50
counter to all the accumulated predjudices of
a century of familiarity with slavery and is
protection and extension is now admitted
by all wise and true patriots to have leon
eminently proper and right, while the freed
men, are wearing the uniform and fighting
the battles of the nation. It is true there
are yet some who denounce the Proclama
tion and the President, but they are the
chronic opposcis of the Government and
sympathisers with the rebellion, who have
endorsed no single act of the Administra
tion, but have constantly, uniformly, and all
the time endeavored to throw obstacles in its
way, and to promote the success of those
who are in arm3 against their country.
When the "Conscription Bill". was passed,
it called forth a perfect shriek of horror
from Copperhead editors and orators all
over the land. They denounced the 'Draft'
in unmeasured terms. They counseled its re
sistance, and declared that the tteonle would
never submit to it. The copperhead organ
of this place in an article headed "Passage
of the conscription Bill and Annihilation
of State Sovereignty" said that the act
was "unconstitutional and revolutionary,"
and that "the great question just now hicill
thepcoph submit to this sudden and revolu
tionary transformation into a military de-
2otisM ?" The effect of their counsel was,
that hundreds of revolvers were sold in this
town, and purchased with the avowed in
tention ot resiotimr the draft. One of the
enrrolling officers of this county was shot in
the foot others were threatened both orally
and in writing.
But the draft was made and another is
in progress. Ihe opposition has vanished
and now the most active men in hunting up
money to procure substitutes, fill the quotas,
and comply with the provisions of the "con
scription Bill" are these selt-same copper
heads ! We hear no more of shooting and
of resisting the law which demands
"your money or your life." It is no longer
asked "whether the people will submit to
it." The question mow is who will sub
scribe to the bonds to raise money to fill our
quota !
Thus the people adapt themselves to every
great measure for carrying on the war, until
it shall result incite overthrow of treason and
rebellion. Though for a time they may be
mis-led by the uad counsel of demogouges,
tiickoters, and traitor;- it is not long until
they yield obedience to the law, and dem
instrate their willingness to comply with its
provisions. Strong as may lie political pr
judice, and feeling, where there is no ae-
tnal sympathy with treason,, there will al
ways, sooner or later, be obedience to, and
support of the government. Men and mon
ey will be furnished in abundance our ar
mies will be strengthened and encouraged
our enemies will be taught that there is no
hope for them in any division of sentimeut
that may exist among as and the spring
campaign upon which we are entering under
such fovorablc auspices, will crush out for
ever the last remains of the Southern Con
spiracy. An Important Measure.
The bill of Winter Davis in the House of
Representatives, is really one of the most
important measures before Congress. It es
tablishes, in the first place, a Provisional
Governor in each of the revolted States ; it
next provides for an enrollment by the Mar
shals of the white male citizens, of those
who are willing and unwilling, to take an
oath of allegiance to the Constitution ; and
then, if the loyal persons amount to one
tenth of the whole, aonvention of the loy
al people to consist of as many members
as the last legislature had is to be called to
form a State Government. No person, how
ever, who has held office under the usurp
ing authorities, or voluntarily borne arms
against the United States, is to be allowed
to vote for the delegates to. this Convention,
and in order to guarantee a republican form
of government, the constitution passed by
it is to stipulate, that certain leaders of the
rebellion shall not be Governors or members
of the legislature, that slavery shall cease to
c.Lt, and that no debts of the Confederacy
are to be paid by the State. Until such
constitution is adopted by the State and re
cognized by the United States, the Provis
ional Governor is authorized to exercise the
usual powers of administration.
The Moore-Marbourg Case.
Some weck3 since we published the par
ticulars of a shooting affair in Johnstown.
The case wa3 tried at the recent Cambria
county court, and the Jury returned a ver
dict of guilty of murder in Second degree.
On Friday, March 18th the prisoner was
brought into court tr receive his sentence in
conformity to the finding of the Jury. On
being asked if he had anything to say, he
arose, and complained of those who stood
by and saw him shoot Marbourg without in-,
terfering to prevent him, saving that he
would give all the world, if he possessed it,
if he could undo what he bad dor.e. He
however, was in the hands of the law, and
would be content to abide its penalties
asking his Honor to be merciful, and re
member the great provocation that madden
ed and urged hnn to commit the deed. The
J udge, with much feeling, then pronoun
ced the sentence to the Court, as follows
"The sentence of the Court is. that von.
Joseph Moore, pay the costs of this prosecu
tion, and undergo an imprisonment for the
period of six years, in the Western Peni
tentiary, in the city of Allegheny, there to
be imprisoned by solitary confinement, at
hard labor, and to be fed and clothed a the
law directs, and to be removed to said im
prisonment by the bhenff, within thirty davs
iiuwi nun uaic.
We do riot profess a great deal of resnect
for the opinions of James Bnchanan, but
since there are those who do, his views may
be of some interest, particularly as they are
at variance with those just expressed by the
Democracy of Ohio. To Mr. Jewett, the
peace man, who called on him to approve
his peace propositions, Mr. Buchanan says :
"This is the moment for action for prompt,
energetic, united action and not for discus
sions of peace propositions. These, we must
know, would be rejected by the States that
have seceded, unless we should offer to re
cognize their independence, which is entire
ly out of the question." Pittsburg Com.
One of the Vice Presidents of the Mc
Clellax meeting recently held at Cooper
Institute, New York, was a man named Hen
ry Grinnell, who is regarded bv the
Southern relels as an open and ardent cham
pion ot their cause, upon the strength of let
ters printed in the Richmond raiers. An
other Vice President, Mr. Lathers, is a South
tarolinan by birth, and is said to have de
clared, when South Carolina seceeded, his
readiness to tight under her standard. These
are the sort of patriots who are most active
in pushing George B. MeClellan for Pres
ident.
Another State, Western Texas will
be among the batch of new States that will
seek admission into the Union. By the
terms of the annexation of Texas, the sub
division of her territory was provided for.
This provision, however, was designed to
benefit and extend slavery, but the result
will be quite the reverse, for the new State
will be free. The territory embraced within
its boundaries is settled mostly by Germans,
many of whom have been mercilessly con
scripted into the rebel ranks. -
An accident occurred on the Pennsylvania
railroad pear Perry ville Station, a few days
ago, by which Joseph Franer, brakeman,
had his. leg broken, and ra& otherwise peri
cufcly injured.
Another terrible fire has occurred in Ja
pan, a letter dated at ivanagawa, J an. 14th
says: Oasaca has just experienced one of
the most destructive fires history records.
The burnt district is three miles in length by
one-third of a mile wide ; thirty thousand
houses and two hundred and fifty warehouses
were consumed, with a loss of life of five
hundred to one thousand souls. The fire
lasted for three days.
In discussing the Presidential question,
our friend of the Warren Mail hits the nail
on the head. "Never before have the peo
ple had so ciuch, and the politicians so little
to do in shaping our national destiny. They
tight the battles, keep public sentiment
ritrht at home, put down rebsllion at the polls,
and indicate who shall and who shall not
finish up the big job of flogging the rebeR"
A bill has passed tbe U. S. Senate provi
ding for the coinage of one and t wo cent pie
ces from a different alloy from that now us
ed ; makes the one cent piece a legal tender
to the amount of ten cents, and the two
cent piMe a legal .tender to the amount of
twenty cents.
Some of the recruits in West Virginia are
sensible men. They get their bounty money
and immediately invest it in real estate for
the benefit of their families. n
