jUfts'man's jimntal Br 9. J. ROW. CLEAKFIELD, PA., APEIL 27, 1864. "The Gag La in Congress." In the Copperhead organ of April 20th, appeara an editorial article under the above caption, in which the editors give an extract from Mr. Long's speech in Congress, that reads as follows : 'I believe that there are but tvro alterna tives, and they are, either an acknowledg ment of the independence of the South? as an independent nation, or their complete subjugation and extermination as a people ; and of these alternatives I prefer the lat ter." Thus the editors of the Copperhead or ' gan make Mr. Long say that he is in favor of a x complete siihjugation and extermina tion"' of the people of the South. If that is correct, then Mr. Long is worse than an "Abolitionist" ' even according to the Cop perhead definition of that term, for those whom the editors of the organ call by that name, do not desire either the "subjuga tion' ' or "extermination" of the Southern people, but only that they should throw down their arms, return to their allegiance, and recognize the rightful authority of the Government of the Union. If Mr. Long, however, is correctly quoted, then he, and the editors of the organ, and "nine-tenths" of their party, are in favor of a war of sub jugation and extermination. This is a new character for the disciples of "the new Gos pel of Peace" to appear in, and will doubt less astonish "Phernahdiwud" the great Apostle. Mr. Long, however, said no such thing, and the editors have either made a mistake, or they have deliberately published a false hood for the purpose of deceiving their readers as to Mr. Long's real sentiments, and the true reason why Speaker Colfax left the Chair and inoved his expulsiori. If it is a mistake, and they endorse what Mr. Long did say, then they are perfectly con sistent, for he avowed himself in favor of the recognition of the Southern Confedera cy in other words, a traitor and a rebel. The editors of the organ further say, that the sentiments of Mr. Long will be "heart ily endorsed by pine-tenths of the people, both male and female, of this country al ways excepting the fanatical Abolitionists." Now as they uniformly call all those who support the present Admiuistration and are in favor of the prosecution of the war, "Ab olitionists" and as these same "Abolition ists" have carried every loyal State in the Union, except New Jersey, and are ev erywhere largely in the majority if only nine-tenths of their own party endorse Long's speech, (which is to be the chief plank in the next Chicago platform) we would like to know where the votes to elect McClellan are to come from ? We are glad to learn that "one-tenth" of the "Peace party" has been converted sin:o the reeent elections, and, we think, from present indi cations, that by November the remaining nine-tenths will be reduced to Messrs. Long, Harris, Vallanligham, and their brother rebels of the "Clearfield llepubiiean." This celebrated quintette will be left alone in its glory. The Secretary of war has ordered that the new regiments of heavy artillery t hat may be organized arid filled up to the legal standard of 1,738 officers and men, within the period of twenty days from this date, will be received. If regiments are not full on or before the 1 0th day of May, the re cruits will be put into other artillery or in fantry organizations. This order will pot iostpone the draft, but such troops, as may be raised prior to the draft will be deducted from the quotas for draft. A dispatch from Louisville states that on Thursday, Col. Gallup, while falling back to get an advantageous position, attacked 1,000 Rebels, killing and wounding 25, in cluding a llebel colonel, and capturing 50 Rebels, 100 horses, and 200 saddles. Near Selbyville the Rebel advance ran into Col. True's advance, which was going from West Liberty to Selbyville, and which captured x Rebels, and then pressed forward to join CoL Gallup. . . Three regiments of colored troop3, part of the quota of Maryland, passed through the streets of Baltimore on Monday the 18th ful ly equipped, and under marching orders. They made a fine display. On the same day . three years ago Pennsylvania troops were assailed by Secession rowdies in the streets of Baltimore quite a contrast. The President has approved the bill au thorizing the Secretary of war to take and hold possession, in behalf of the United States of America, of the land and shores of Roek Island, Illinois, on which to build an arsenal. Just compensation is to be made to the private owners. The Selinsgrove Times, the organ of pat ent democracy in Snyder count', says : "No intelligent and upright man.whether he.be a democrat or a republican, will ever consent to the doctrine of allowing soldiers . to vote in their camps, especially when outside ot their ownstate." ;:i . Members of the PennsylvahiaaLegisIature are to hv on thousand dollar? per annum. "TAXATION! TAXATION'.!" Some two weeks ago we called attention to a rumor that the County Commissioners intended to lay in unnecessarily heavy tax to pay the debt for bountie toEirupthe quota for our county, and thus avoid, the draft. For once, at least, Ma dam Rumor told the truth the tat has been laid and the duplicates are being placed in the hands of the collectors as rapidly as the junta that loafs around the Commissioners' office can prepare them. That the people may know who are responsible for this enormous tax, and how it came to be lev ied, we will present them with a few '-facts and figures." The order for a d rait of three hundred thou sand men was made on October 17th. 1 863. Find ing that nothing was being done to fill our quota, on the 6th of January, IStU. we called attention to the fact that other counties and localities were offering bounties for the purpose, and that many cfour young men were enlisting and crediting themselves to those places. From day to day, and from week to week the Commissioners were in ses sion in this town, and must certainly have been aware of the fact that men from different sections of the county were leaving to enlist for other pla ces and get their bounty. We were losing men at the rate of from ten to twenty per day. The vet erans who were re-enlisting in the army, were al so having themselves accredited to other locali ties, where they could get local bounties. Yet nothing was done. Not until the 4th of March, one month after the call had been made for the additional to hundred thousand men, did the CoicuiiisioLersoffer a bounty. Having gone home without acting in the matter, they were brought back by a message from the clerk (the day fixed for the draft as getting alarmingly close) when they concluded to offer a bounty of $200. This offer was of course too late, and on the 6th of A pril they increased the amount to 3300 per man. If a bounty of 150 had been offered in the begin ning of January, the whole quota cold have been filled at a cost of less than $72,000. Their pro crastination will cost the county over $75,000. Having thus thrown away the opportunity to get men at a moderate cost, they proceeded imme diately to levy an enormous tax without wilting to ascertain the amount of the debt they had in curred. From this undue and unseemly hasto in a matter that required no haste, it is fair to infer that their object was to make political capital for the approaching Presidential canvass, by charg ing the necessity of this onerous tax upon the Na tional Administration. Had their motive been solely to provide for the paymeut of the debt, they would surely have waited until the amount of the debt was known The quota is not yet filled, and. from present appearances it is, to say the least, Very dcuttful whether it will be. If they do not get the men, then certainly, they will not have to pay the money. Why, there 'ore, lay this enor mous tax before they know how much will bo re quired ? It is true they have issued a largo num ber of bonds and distributed them to everybody who represented themselves as couiinit'ees to fill the quota of a township, but many of these bonds aro not used, and will cot be used, if they can tot get the men. Iience the amount of the debt is not, and can not for the present be known. But if the men had all been obtained, and the debt amounted to the largest sum possible to es timate under the circumstances, the tax levied is improper and unjust. Our quotaof the five hun dred thousand, as furnished to us from the Pro vost Marshal's office, was 311 men. We presume that two-fifths of this number would be our pro portion of th additional two hundred thousand, making our whole quota about 430 men At $300 per man, the whole debt would be $144,003. To pay this sum in five years, and the interest every six months, would require an annual tax of about 534 .1100, or two per cent on the assessed valuation of the county. This would have made the bonds a good investment, and would have been all the holders docired. It would, moreover, have fallen lightly on the people, and could have been paid, to use a common phrase, without their feeling it But instead of adopting this manifestly proper course, the County Commissioners, doubtless un der the instructions of the copperhead clique by which they are always surrounded, havo gone to work and levied a tax of Jive pur rent on the assessed valuation of the county, which, accord ing to the last tri-ennial assessment is M.094. 933 00. This makes the amount of tax levied for the present year?S4,C43 65, leaving, after deduct ing two per cent for collection, the euiri of S32-, 953 72 to apply to the debt for bounties, or 12, 646 65 more than half of the whole amount! With such reckless haste did they proceed to levy this tax, that they, doubless, never stopped to inquire what they were going to do with the money after they had it. Having distributed their bond3 broad-cast over the county with the coupons filleii tip for Jrom. one to six years, they can't pay them when they have the money. It is not at all probable that people who have purchas ed thefe bonds,with' coupons duo every six months for four or six years, and exempt from taxation, will present them for payment at the expiration of one or even two years. They are a desirable investment, and will most likely bo held, as long as the coupons last. Then, if the holders see pro per to retain them, what is to be done with the monej ? Is it to lie idle in the treasury, while the county pays the interest on the bonds? It might be welt enough to inquire, while on this subject; how the. Commissioners are to get back these bonds, if the parties to whom they have thus distributed them should tail to get the men ? Most of them have been negotiated, and in order to raiae the money they have sold many of them at considerably less than their face. Now if they fail to get the men hb'w will they get back the bonds? Is it probable that persors who have been induced to withdraw their capital from other investments to buy these bonds, will give them up again whenever called upon ? And if the money which has been received on them is paid into the treasury, the bonds are still out for a larger sum and on interest ! We have heard it suggested that it was much better to pay off the debt at once, and to lay a heavy tax while money was plenty But, as we have seen, they can not pay It off when they have the money, and if they could the abundance of money affords no justification for such a tax. If a man has an income of $600 a year, he may be able to pay S50 of the amount each year as taxes, but it you take'one-half or two thirds of the whole in one year, how is he to support his family? The inoomes of the majority of men are not more than sufficient to provide for their ordinary neces sities. It is only the favored few who can pay such taxes all at once. The theory may suit the rich, but it don't suit those of moderate means. It may do to make political capital for a Presi dential canvass, but it will utterly fail to answer the practical demands of life. .Many persons will, no doubt, 6e startled by this expose. If they doubt our conclusions, however, they f tn take the figure and compute for them selves. When they have done so they will prob ably think, with us, that the conduct of the Com missioners in this matter is entirely without jus tification or excuse. Had they been as prompt to offer the bounty as they have been in haste to lay the tax. they would have saved the people fully one-half of the amount they are now called up on to pay, while they would have rendered that certain which is now exceedingly uncertain, vis : the exemption ot the county from the draft. Having by their neglect incurred such an enor mous debt, they ought, at least, to have provided for its payment in the way that could be most easily borne by the people. There are somo-othei things pertaining to this subject to which we mav allude hereafter. If we are mistaken in the data upon which we have based these remarks, the Coinmis.sioners shall have the full benefit of the explanation The National Debt. The Cincinnati Daily Times completely unmasks the efforts of the Peace Democra cy, for the purpose of depreciating the na tional Credit on the score that the public debt is now so large that it can never be liq uidated, if the interest on it can even be paid. Completely to answ er their efforts at depreciation, it is Only necessary to refer to the totals as exhibited in the official state ments of the Treasury Department, of -March 16th, 1S64. From this we learn that the immediate liabilities are $35.'J70.24fi 0f. Added o this is the old public debt of; 67, 417,417 o. The erand total is l,5fJ'J,yy V 429 33. Of this were : Three year 7 3-10 bonds. . . ?138,0G3,8OO 00 U. S. Legal Tenders 44y.073.GlG GO Fractional Currency 69. 173.01 G 15 20 years' loan of ?G3 50.O0OJMH) 00 6 per cent 5-20 bonds 510,749,100 00 Of the Ten-Forty bonds there has been issued, up to the present time, twelve mil lion dollars. Truly formidable as these fig ures may seem, they dwindle away, compar atively, when we take into consideration the great contest in which a large proportion of the sum has been expended. Not a single dollar has been borrowed from foreign po tentate or power, and to-day the issues of the Government have the abiding confidence of the people. ft the Democratic op po sers to the war tell us that the day of reck oning will come, and we admit it, while we firmly hope that its advent will be amid the restored peace and prosperity of the coun try. If the people have submitted calfiiiy to the direct Jjfctxution imposed on them through the agency of the internal revenue, when an immediate necessity for large sums was apparent, they will not repudiate their indebtedness when the unrestrained tide of commerce shall again flow through its usual channels and they can accommodate them selves more conveniently to the pressure. An export duty, heretofore unknown in our history, levied upon articles which must be supplied to foreign nations, and which we, as an agricultural country can well furnish, would only be following in the footsteps of those governments older in years and better versed than ourselves in the province of po licical economy. What its rctl!t might' be can only be gleaned from the past. During the eight years previous to lfviGthe exports from this country, on articles reproduce mostly, amounted to sixteen hundred mil lions of dollars, of which cotton alone was shipped amounting to nearly seven hundred and fifty millions. The very indebtedness now apparently so heavy may have the eflect to develop more fully the resources of cur wonderful country, and cause us to be less lavish of wealth which has been ruthlessly squandered in the past. And this. too. with no discomfort to ourselves as a people. A tariff fur revenue, the encouragement of foreign immigration, by which the millions of acres of uncultiva ted laud shall be made productive, and a score of other results, which will follow the re-etablishinent of the Union, will again enable us to rid the country of its indebted ness and win back for it the title it has worn so long as die refuge of the oppressed and the home of the free; Garibaldi ia England. One of the marked events of the day is the appearance of the great leader of Euro pean Democracy in England. The ovation tendered him by the authorities and citizens of Southamton exceeded in enthusiasm and profound agitation anything that has been witnessed in Europe for many years. He arrived in the Itipon on Sunday morning, and, notwithstanding the bacrcdtiess of the day, multitudes flocked to the dock to wel come him. All classes of society vied with each other to do honor to ihe eminent rep resentative of Italian Democracy. The hells of the churches" were ringing; flags were flying from' every window, and the popular heart was stirred td its lowest depth. Even those papers which have heretofore eagerly embraced .every opportunity to malign and abuse him, now call him "the foremost of all the idols of the popular heart." The reception everywhere accorded to the Ital iati patriot was most hearty and thoroughly earnest. Addresses by the Mayor of South amton were made to Gen. Garibaldi in the most cordial and flattering terms. He as sured him that his name was a household word in Great Britain. Everywhere the people had heard of his patriot ic deeds and the noble efforts he had made to achieve the independence of his country. The General was deeply affected by the address as well as the tumultiious greeting of the people. In reply he said that it was hot the first time that he hai received proof of the sympathy of the English nation. Had it riot been for their help in 18G0, it would have been im poss ble to have accomplished what had been done in Southern Italy. The English peo ple had provided him with arms, men and money, and what they did was .worthy of the eternal gratitude of the Italian people. What his plans are in Eugland at this par ticular juncture has not been announced. But wherever and whenever he speaks, it is in the interest of universal liberty. It is intimated that the illu-trous patriot contemplates a visit to the United Mates. His reception here will be as hearty and genuine as in England, for the fires of liber ty burn brightly in the hearts of our pSople, and they cannot fail to feel and express ad miration for one whose life has been given to the defense and dissemination of liberal views and human freedom. Leroi has "come to time" again, but we have been nblirrofl lA nmif Vila 1aHi nr count of the crowded state of our columns. In a few weeks more, however, we shall be able once more to make room for correspon dents. THE GEEAT PAIE IS BALTIM0EE. Speech bf President Lincoln. Baltimore, April 10. The inaucura tion exercises of the great fair at Maryland Institute, last merit, were very lmposimr, The President's appearance in the hall was greeted with tremendous applause. After the inaugural address of Gov. Bradford, the President was loudly called for, and in re sponse, proceeded to make a brief address. He referred to the great change which has taken place iti Baltimore in the last three years. The world, he said, has long been wanting to correct the definitions of the word freedom. Whilst all professed to advocate liberty, there was in the minds of many, very opposite views, of what liberty' fs. With one man liberty implied working for himself and doing as he incased with the proceeds of his labor. U ith others liberty meant to do as you pleased with other men and their la bor. One of those two conflict ing ideas would have to give way to the oth er, lie thought from some occurrences that had lately taken place in Maryland, her peo ple were about determining which of these views of freedom should control her destiny. He then alluded to the occurrence reported to have taken place at Fort Pillow, the mas sacre of several hundred colored soldiers by t he Confederates. Many supposed the Gov ernment did not intend to do its duty in re gard to the protection of our colored sol diers. He desired to say to all such that they were mistaken. When the question of employing colored nieu as soldiers was loll to the Government, it rested very much with himself to say whether he should make sol diers of them or not. lie rendered the matter carefully, and when he became con vinced it was a duty to employ them in that capacity lie did not hesitate to do so. He stood before the American people responsi ble for the act, responsible telbre the Chris tian world, responsible he should stand in the eyes of the historian, responsible he stood before (Jod, and he did not shrink from the decision he had made, for he be lieved he was right. But when the govern ment detennine3 toiriake soldiers of colored people, he thought it only just that they should have the same protection as white soldiers, (applause.) and he hesitated not to declare flint the .government would so protect them to the utmost of its power. Whenever a clear atrl authenticated case was made out retribution would follow. Hitherto it has been difficult to ascertain - to a certainty what should govern a decision in a matter so serious; but in the nlfair at Fort Pillow he thought we were likely to find a clear case. The Government had no direct evidence to c infirm the reports in ex istence relative to the massacre, hut he fear ed the facts related wen; true. When the Government does know the facts from offi cial sources, and they substantiate the re ports, retribution wi'i b" surely given. Great applause. I But how U the retribu tion to be settled. Would it be rijrht to J take the lives ot prisoners m Washington, Fort Delaware, or elsewhere, in retaliation for acts in which they had. not shared, and which will probably be found the ordering of only a few individuals, or possibly of only one man ? The President reiterate d that the gov ernment would not fail to visit retribution, when the facts were clearly obtained. Throughout his remarks he was warmly ap plauded, especially for his determination to visit retribution for the barbarous deeds of the rebels. From Plymouth, N. 0, We have by way of Philadelphia reports of an at tick by the Kelt's upon Plymouth, N. C. Fighting is said to have commenced there on Sunday afternoon. The Jlebels, in force, attacked Fort Gray, which is about a mile from the town, on the Roanoke Biv er. They planted a heavy battery on Polk's Island, about half a mile distant, ari l kept up a continuous fire. The Rebels advanced slowly forward up to within a short distance of the fort, when they made a charge. Tiiev were received with a galling fire, which i caused them to fall back. Again and again they rallied to the charge and endeavored to take the citadel, but to no purpose. Each time they were repulsed with fearful slaugh ter. They retired, with their artillery still keeping up a. tire. Their iron ram anil four llebel gunboats moved down the river to the obstructions, within six mile of the town, to cooperate with the land forees. The Rebel force wa from l(),0U0 to 1 5.000 strong. Gen. Wessels is in command cf the Union forces. HeJiasPhmouthwe!! fortified, ami pronounces it impregnable. In front.of the town are stationed several of our gunboats, and they have had to stand already much of the brunt of the engagement. The tire of the Rebel artillery has been directed on them, and it is said that on the gunboat Bombshell several have been killed and wounded. During the engagamuit tiie Rebels captured a member of the 2d North Carolina Loyal Regiment, who formerly de serted, they allege, from the 7th North Car olina Rebel regiment, and it is reported that he was hung on the spot without even so much as the form of a trial. It is rumored that the Rebels h ave also made a demon stration simultaneous with this in the vicin ity of New-Plymouth last Sunday, by sea and land, the gunboat Whitehead is repor ted to have been sunk. The fight was go ing on up to midnight of Sunday. The U nion force is believed to be strong enough to hold out. Later. Gen. Wesseils, after four days hard fighting surrendered to the rebels." Our loss is 180 killed . and 2.500 prisoners. The rebel loss was 1,500 killed. Prom the Eed Eiver. The Chicago Evening JmirnuloFthe 1 9th publishes letters from the Red River expe dition, giving the details of a severe Union disaster at Pleasant Hill, Be Sota Parish, Lousiana. Our cavalry of the 3d and 4th Divisions of the 23th Army Corps, after a Hard-fought battle, were put td rout by a largely superior Rebel force. Gen. Stone man was in command of the movement. The 19th Army Corps finally came up and checked the enemy. Our loss was over 2, 000. The enemy also lost heavily. Gen. Ransom who commauded the 3d aud 4th Divisions, was wounded in the early part of the fight. The Chicago Mercantile Battery lost all its guns and four officers and 22 men. The Journal of April 20 publishes extracts from private letters from members of the Chicago Mercantile Battery, dated April 12, to the effect that on the day after the recent disaster to the 13th Army Corps, Gen. A. J. Smith, with the 19th Army Corps, en gaged the enemy aud defeated them, cap turing 2,000 prisoners and 20 cannon. A dispatch wa? received at the Navy Depart ment at noon yesterday from Capt. Pen nock, saying : ''I have received private letters from Red River one dated Grand Ecore, La., April 10, and one dated Alex andria, April 12, stating that the army un der Gen. Banks met with reverses on the 8th inst.; near Mansfield. Our army fell back, and on the next day the Rebels attack ed them, and were handsomely whipped. The loss is heavy on loth sides." The Ad miral ( Porter), when last heard from, was about forty miles above Grand Ecore. The river was low.' Later news from Red River represents the rebels as utterly routed after several davs fighting having lost about 3.000 men in tfie engagement, Union loss 1,500. Proa CatlettEbuTg Ky,.

The committee fel the responsibility of tho work they havo undertaken, which to be success ful, will requira a very perfect ramification of their plan, aDd they thoreforo call upon ail earn est people to aescinblo tbemsolres together in ev ery town, township and county, and form organi zations of ladies and gentlemen to co-operate with thcui in this great work of labor and love. I a the manufacturing counties, the coal and oil regions, and in the agricultural districts, especi ally, let there be organizations in the large towc?, ho that the young people may have au opportu nity thus to render assistance to their relatives and friends fightiug the ha-ties of their country in the armies of the nation. The work of this committee may be prosecuted where no other effoit can be made for the Fair a in the mines of the coal regions. A day's earn ings of the miners, and a day s product of tbe mine-scan bo obtained, where no portable article) could be procured for transportation. Indeed there is no part or section of these States wtere the day's labor may not be obtained, if organiza tions can be formed to reach them The committee cannot close without urging up on all proprietors of establishments, the duty cf taking prompt and energetic action io seoure the benefit of the day of Labor from all within their control. Tho committee deem it unnecessary to do mote than thus to present the subject to the people of the three .Mates named. In tho comitfg campaigns of our armis, the labors of the "sanitary Com mission will b greatly augmented. By the first of June 700.00U one of the largest armies of modern times will bo operating in the field. So large a force, scattered over regions to which the men are unauclimated. must necessarily carry along with it a large amount of sick ncss.suffjring aud death, to say nothing of the gathered hor rr of the battle-field. These sufferings it is our bounded duty, as men and christians, to relieve. A great and enlight ened people, enjoying the blessings of a Govern ment of their own making, cannot refuse assist ance to men suffering to maintain its authoritr, and we will not believe that the '-GREAT CEN TRAL FAIR," drawing its products from the three States of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and lielaware. so affluent in all mineral, agricultural and industrial wealth, shall fall behind any sim ilar effort for the relief of the Nation's children. As it is desirable not to multiply circulars : jVo further authority thnn this circular irillht ttfcess'jry for any employing firm or company, or any tesperlable committee of ladies and gentlemen, td proceed at once in the wort of this committee. And it is hoped that under it, organizations will spring up in all the towns aud busy regions of the states of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and .Delaware.
