Ix is not disguised by friend or foe, that the decisive struggle with Treason lap be made in Virginia, and the terri ble conflict may belong to'history before another moon shall wax anil wane.

We do not look for easy triumph or the speedy capture of the cap ital of crime. With the desperation of death itself, treason has summoned its last i resources, and it will recede only af ter its almost superhuman resistance has bect(overeome. It will crowd its soil with new hecatombs of dead, and send batik the dark shadow of bereavement to thouisands of loyal homes; but, with un faltering faith in the triumph of a just and )Iy,ca,use, r 4we look for the preservation of the .Republic by the success -of the ! Union arms in the, coming strugile. ; ; SANCTITY OF 'THE LAWS. if ,]We would preserve our liberties we must: maintain the sanctity and suprema cy of :the laws. They must be supreme imderall circumstances, regardless of class or condition; color; prejudice • or persuasion ; and to this great endeVery citizei should direct his determined efforts. Eipecially in troublous days like„ these, is the good citizen required at times to set his face like flint against the lawless . ness;of which civil feuds and revolution are ever the fruitful parent. If in pre trsrving our government by force of arms against treason, we ,should inaugurate disorder and anarchy in the,administra tion of the civil law, our reseued Nation ality 4would turn to an empty bauble in our hands. In short, a government with out hiw is a libel and 'a fraud, and is net worth preserving. Thii journal has repeatedly spoken bold- , ly in behalf of the sanctity of the laws. It his condemned contempt for law whether open or covert ; whether display ed by the cowardly foes of the government; or `by these who assume summarily to vindicate realorimaginary wrongs against the C,ountry's cause. and plead their devo tion to it in, justification of lawlessness. Whether soldier or civilian , p olitical frien d or foe, we hold that the same obligations ID society obtain; the same respect for per son, property and life must be practice.d, and the same penalties inflicted forcrime. To a4nmethat a newspaper-is not loyal sad ;therefore destroy it byt'Violencr, is none the less lawlesiif the assumption be -trim (for the remedy is buten aggravated form of the wrong sought to be redressed; and tojusti6 violence , or crime, or even to extenuate the same in opinion or in the rulmiMStration of justice, because of po liticaldilference, of opinion touching the support of the government, is but to steal the mine and livery of the law to fling anarcly broadcast over the land. Let; us look at home. Three important criminal trials were disposed of in our -courts here last week. In one case a sol dier had murdered a negro, and laVeyers of all rihades of politicalbelief were invek - - ed to prosecute - and defend. Did it es cape the obsers , .ation of the dallest at terulant upon the trial; that men of the Democratic faith .only were deemed by the defenc.e acceptable furors? And why? Was it believed that 'iliePublicans would convict the prisoner whether guilty or not,, Pimply because the -victim was a segreT3 We think not,; indeed none will tomune that they would have done more thait hold the prisoner guilty orklmoeent, war* regard to the color .or e :meter hig l lietirn, na the testimony might de ' ta aad," Why, then, were jurors of a fereakpolitia9l persuasion preferred? We opnaed,a that it was not because they are wantiMe;in'irite.grity or in a just appzeci- Atka de kthe :solituniq - of an oath; but they were inanifestlychoseubecause they were presumed to-be schooled to hatethe negro, and upon their prejudices, Opera tins insensibly upon their re...'usen,' did the defence rely for safety. Two advocates, justly eminent for legal learning and for eloquence and skill in appeals to jnr id, plead for the life of the prisoner. Judge Kimmel' lectured the jury on mis- cegenation, and 'a 'stranger would have supposed that the S . riglo-saxon race was trembling in the 'balance for existence, rather than the life of a culprit; and Mr. Sharpe rehashed to the jury the common 'spawn of petty treason, by his declaration that the war had been prostituted from its original and holy purpose to a war for the elevation of the negro. And why were these startling declarations . interwoven with appeals in behalf of a prisoner, in a case with which the purposes of the war and the mingling of races had no more to do than they have with the revolutions of the comets? 'Messrs. Sharpe and Kim mell do not thus strangely talk from force of habit. Both have made political speeches but never so-madly wrong—nor could they to-day be induced to harrangue a public meeting as they dia. a jury in an issue of life and death. They spoke as adVocates, and we are not prepared to say that they spoke mnwisely as such. They had sought as ju'rors men whose hatred for the negro is part of their political faith, and they aimed to brutalize the jury by appealing to their prejudices, hoping to'give them the mastery over reason and conseienee in the verdict to 'be mule up. They did not say in so many words that the killing of a negro was little Or no crime; that he was becoming quite too important in this country ; that he would soon be upon equality with. the whites ; and therefore it was time that the white man's hand should be against him even unto death—for that would have made an honest jury revolt; but they sought to carry the conviction. imperceptibly :to their minds through their prejudices,tru st ing to inflamed prejudices' to magnify doubts, and magnified doubts to procure an acquittal. Equally forcible was the illustration of the correctness of our premises in two other cases. A 'soldier had killed a citi zen—they were of different political faith, and the deed had been committed on elec tion evening and in a political fracas. The same rule that dictated Democratic jurors in the case, before alluded to, de -1 manded: Republican jurors in this one, . and political feeling ran high throughout the trial, especially amongst thosewho live in the locality where the alleged of fence was committed. The case was tea- ken from the jury by the judge on the ground that the testimony of the Com monwerdth could not be complete, beCause of the, failure to make a post mortem- ex ' amination of the body ; but had it gone to the jury, ,we should have had an as sortment of stars and stripes and fourth of July orations in behalf of the prisoner, in strange contrast with the political speeches Of the counsel. Were Republi can jurors chosen in this case . , because they, were wanting in honesty or respect for the laws, or in their appreciation of the solemnity of their oath? , Not at all. <They were chosen because their prejudi ces might, it was hoped, be turned strong ly in favor of one 3vho was enlisted in the defence of his country, and thus cloud the reason to ilkagnify or create doubts to jiis tify an '-acquittal. "In another case the Democratic faith was in demand again. A charge of treason had provoked a blow that maimed the prosecutor for life, and again vas political prejudice invoked to shield_ a wrong. Again did Sharpe for get that this is a government of law, in his:speech to the jury, hoping thereby to make prejudice do, what unclouded rea son must forbid; hut in all cases we be lieve, jurors shamed the novel assump tions' of counsel by doing their duty. —We have alluded to these facts not for the purpose of censuring counsel or jukes; but to point out clearly to. all classes of eitizent3—to men of all political faith—that there is danger of growing looseness- in the ;administration of Our laws, and of necessity a corresponding warfare upon the order and safety of so ciety. Lawyers do not appeal to preju dice where prejudice does not exist ; they donotdeliver political harrangues to juries unless they have good reason to believe that political prejudice may be made stronger than their sense of justice; and until it is discarded by all good citizens; the enforcement of the laws demanded inflexibly, and the administration of jus tice regarded as too sacred for political or other, polluting Partialities or hatreds to mingle with it, we shall find a growing ten dency to disorder and crime, and even the -better class of men ma-be•made insensi blyto strengthen"thOarrent of lawless ness. Three men r died untimely and by violence on last election night in - this county; a shocking murder was committed in our - midst but a few weeks ago, and half a score of hoinieides were prevented by accident in the vaiions altercations which have fallen to our lot during the ast year. For this there is but one rem edy—that is obedience to the, laws, and ,the enforcement of 'their suPremacy and the just punishnient of crime.without re gard to creed, color, condition or class. For .the leered mainb3oanoe .of order let 44r. : _fraolflitc typooo.,* '4141.(.2i 1814. every good citizen make common cause; and let crime of every' grade meet its just condemnation and punishment at tlio hands of all ! TIME CoNNELLsvnGLE A !Vii fit►VTH• ERN PEICSSYLVANIA RAILROAD. A bill is now pending in the legislature incorporating the Connellsville and South ern Pennsylvania Railroad Company,' which authorizes the construction of a railiOad from Connells*ille to the Mary land State line, and alsci - to construct a road "from any point on said line to con nect with any road or roads in the Sus quehanna Valley or west thereof, and to make such branches 'as the directors may deem expedient and necessary,_ in the Southern tier of counties ofPennsylvania," &q, The capital stock is fixed at ten millions, with power to increase as to the directors may seem needful. The cor porators •named are leading citizens of Somerset, Bedford, Pulton and Franklin counties, several prominent officers of the Ctimberland Valley and four• leading cap italists in New York. . A twin-bill resumes the franchises, conferred by several .supplements, upon the Pittsburg and Cotmellsville Railroad Company, authorizing that corporation to construct any lilies of railroad south wardly•or eastWardly from'Connellsville, and provides for compensation to that company for any work they may have done on any of such lines. The forfeiture is based, as set forth in the' preamble of the bill, upon the misuse of the franchises, by the failure of the Pittsburg and Con nellsville to construct the lines authorized —nine years having elapsed without such progress having been made as warrants the belief that they can be completed by the corporation now holding thefran chises. —We trust that this bill will pass. It is clearly demanded by the growing trade of the State, and especially by the wants of the southern 'counties. Of the ability and purpose of the parties desiring the - act of incorporation to construct the road promptly, we are fully persuaded; and a glance at the corporators named—nearly all of them living on a direct line from Chambersburg west—points conclusively to the route the main road would lie cer tain to take. It would doubtless make the junction with the Cumberland Valley at this point, and thus make the Pitts burg and Connellsville a direct feeder to the commerce of our own State instead of cleaving the wealth of south-western Pennsylvania to Baltimore. It would at once develop the vast wealth of the south elm counties immediately west of us, and give us new and vastly cheaper avenues for lumber and coal, besides , enhancing the value of every acre of land in this section of the State. Now that the lead ing railroads of the State have evinced a determination to 'construct this road, the legislators from southern. Pennsylvania, and all who desire to' divert the vast trade ',of the southern route to Philadelphia, or p Baltimore over Pennsylvania improve intent's, should promptly give the neces sary authority, and three years more will see the iron horse. singing his wild song lover the Alleghenies by three leading 'routes—all bearing their commerce to the great emporium of our State—audyearing, new fields and towns as if by magic on their lines. • Now is the time to secure this vital improvement for this part of the State, and we earnestly hope to`record the'passme of the bill before the cloie of the present session.' CONGRESS AND THE CURRENCY. Gold reached :SS per cent. premium in its upward flight on-Thursday last, and . then rebounded to 76 the same day, clos ing at nearly the lowest figure, after a most feverish grapple with the bulls and bears ()f the stock beard. Since then its , tendency is to recede; tint it is painfully manifest that there must be some substan tial remedy promptly applied or it may, upon any partial reverse of the union army, bound over 200, and entail upon the people all the grave evils which attend the advance of gold. We do not regard prohibitory bills, such as Mr. Stevens has proposed in Congress, as at all equal to the task of arresting speculation in gold. However stringent their provisions or se vere the penalties, the gambling in gold will go in ;'and public confidence will be impaired rather than strengthened by such legislative restictions upon business, whether it is ink point of fact and morals legitimate or not.- No amount of declar atory enactuients will effect the relative price of• gold and paper dollars—both will be measured, by the intinisic value they possess; and the true and only remedy it is • to make the government cur reney-tio Safe that• its depreciation cannot be based upon any rational argument.: Systeinatie,. thorough and stern taxa tion is the only remedy against success ful gambling in gold; and if ,Congress still, with the experience of the list 'air tY days, does not appreciate this stubborn truth, then must ,we prepare for a degree of suffering not as yet dreamed of in this \ war. , Every intelligent citizen knows that the resources of the treasury are now entirely unpqual to the heavy load of debt upon it; and -the immense circulation of currency is without ' anything like' ade quate provi4an for its redemption. These. facts_ ,invite , the sordid and speculative to toy With gold almost at will; and aided as they a re .by a powerful political party, -whose leaders steadily decry the curren, cy, and flood the country with grave and plattaible prophecies of early rain, they are enabled' to advance gold and with it all-the ilecii:sarit! , of lifesaltuoitwhenevt r it is their interest to do so.-, And it must not be forgotten by Congress, that the steady advance of geld pioditces a cor responding steady distrastin the carrell- cy and the, finances of the government, and 'Unless an effectual remedy is prompt ly applied, our credit will become seri ously and we fear permanently impaired. When once impaired, who -will be equal I to tile task of restoring it while a gigantic "war raisins on our hands T The Man who resists taxation is either ,_ coward,or traitor. It cannot be done on 'the plea that taxes -are onerous on the ,people, for the people are now paying - in- directlyby the needless adVance in,prices of both necessaries and luxuries, more than four fold What would sustain our currency at par or nearly so, if collected directly for tbe maintenance of our credit. And inflated prices fall just where the burdens of the government should not fall. The fabrics' and other articles essel tial to the Poorer classei have advanced enormously; and thus their shard of tax ation is, now beYondalljust proportion— while if anlple taxes were imposed judi ciously upon the luxuries of life, and upon the profitable products, the currencywould be restored to a fair standard ; govern,. ment credit would be placed beyond , all peril, and the poorer classes would be re lieved of the present crushing prices for the necessaries of life. Taxation is there fore thegreat measure of economy for the people, for the disastrous effects of depre ciated currency fall directly upon th€m with relentless fury ; and we appeal to Congress to rise to the full measure of_the great issue, and save the people, the cur rency and the credit of the government, by making OuireVenues abundantly large to sustain, beyond all reasonable doubt, the obligationEi of the Nation.,' We, do not appeal to clowns like Car roth and the abler and worse men'who demand that the' government shall pay : gold, and yet refuse to sustain any system of revenue; who with ill-concealed hy pocrisy demand a vigorous prosecution of the war, and yet refuse,to vote for any pleasure to increase the army, and who declaim loudly for the Maintenance of the Union, and yet ;rush to the sanction of nten - who thank. God that the rebels are not, and cannot be subdued ; but we do appeal to the intelligent and faithfalmen of Congress; of' whatever political desig nation, - who sincerely ;desire to - preserve our Nationality, and to lesSen, as far as it is in human power, the terrible exactions of war, , to meat the question of taxatio promptly, and avert i the -existing 3 , threatening eVils by planting our cuusii cy, upon a basis Iwhich treason in every guise will not dare to assault. This done, the people will be: relieved of the present 'crushing prices for the' necessaries of life, and the • Repuhlic will' emerge from this sa,ng,uina4 . snuggle ,with ito finances as firm as the rock of Freedom itself. TUE CoppeAead Long was censured by a vote of :50 to 70 in . the House on Thursday last, and the resolution to expel him was tabled by one majority.

The declarations of these blatant traitors have \ done but lane prac -1 tieal harm, for the. people were fully pre pared for a crop of full blown treason from =the Democratic side of Congress at any time—while it ;has done some • goodin making the party openly avow its com plicity with the rebels much sooner than their leaders had cakulated.
