THE XIMMY CLAIN
Our Harrisburg correspondent gives
elsewhere in to-day's paper, theparticu
lars of the final consideration of the bill
relating to border military claims, and the
vote by which it was defeated--,W to 43.
When it is understood that the - bill in
question simply provided that the evi
dence °f lip? sacrifices of our &spoiled cit
izens- shotild be perpetrated, while it is
fresh and of easy access, so that the gov
ernment might have safe land-marks by
whicirto ascertain these claims when it is
- free fiom war and able to be just to its
eitire 1 , 4 it must seem most unaccountable
that it should meet with serious hostility
in the legislature . of the State. The bill
just finally, defeated, after the most earn
est struggle made during an entire ses
sioll-onthe part of the border members,
looked solely to adjiidieation—nothing
more. It was but a repetition of the acts
of 1862 and 1863, with new restrictions
designed to guard against speculations or
frauds, - and it proposed to perform the
same kind office for those who were plun
dered in 1863-4 that was performed by the
State for those who sustained losses in
1861-2. The spoliation suffered during
the first two years of the war, is now a
matter Of record in the archives of the
State, and by existing lads the Executive
is to ..preient it to the general
-government for payment, and in case of
failure, to submit the facts to the legisla
ture. _
Whatever may be the views of legisla
tors as to the ultimate responsibility of
the State for losses sustained by its own
citizens, because of the failure of their
government to protect them, the bill just
defeated should not have been prejudiced
tliereby. The State may or, may not
pay these, claims, as future legislators,.
may-- determine; but of the right of citi
zens to have the sanction of law for a rec- -
ord of:their sacrifices, and of the duty of
the - State to yield that evidence of sympa.
'thy and consideration, there can - be no
'question in any generous or just mind.—
Even if they are never to be paid—if gov
ernment is but a fiction and a fraud, ex
acting tribute and yielding but shadows
therefor - in times of peril, there•is scim
thing due to those upon whom the disola
ting track of war has fallen, and it should
be.the pride of the State, as it may be of
the citizens, to preserve the record of sub
• stantial heroism the faithful, people of
Pennsylvania have made to preserve their
own liberties. - '
In this action of the legislature there
can be no explanation consistent with
either patriotism or justice. That grave
legislators bowed to their own fears, ex
cited by the corrupt wha sought to batten
on the misfortunes of our suffering people,
and filled the very air with their clamors
to seeure tangible persuasion of their er
ror, is as much the truth touching this
issue. as the record of its defeat the journal
of the Howie presents. Before the legis
lathre met, journals whose chief mission
is to exact mercilessly from those who
must — apply to the law-makin g power for
relief, started the cry—thavish being fa
ther to the thought—that a raid was about
to be made upon the treasury to pay fraud
ulent and traitorous claims, and the venal
banded together to arrest the measure un
less it should pass their way ; and when
the bill presented proved so blameless in
its aim that their predictions and hopes of
plunder were alike dissipated, they aveng
ed themselves upon the integrity of the
border people by the persistent clamor
that there must be fraud somewhere. and
that the bill for adjudication was but the
"entering wedge" by which the treasury=
would be beggared. All this, too, was in
face of the fact that previous legislatures
had passed similar bills, and the treasury
had not suffered ong dolhir thereby. As
the bill did not propose to rob the State,
so as to afford a margin for the vampyres
who toy with the fears of the weak and
ply their vocation with the purphaseble,
it was met with most vindictive opposition,
and between villainy, timidity and the
narrow ambition of little minds, it fell in
the House. •
We would gladly extenuate this record
to our people if we could. Since the
tiemture has failed, ye should prefer to
give a good reason for its faihire, if °it
were possible, and thui vindicate the in
telligence and virtue of those who are
murders. If we could say that the legis
lattile heard our cause and adjudged us
as untimely or in error, the people and
their representatives would feel that the
common good demanded the sacrifice, and
'they would with just pride bow to
therdecisiou; but the border people itipst
feel that they have received at the hands
of the legislature wanton wrong and con
scious injustice, and it will fall harshly
upon the hundreds who to.;day, though
faithful as the needle to the . pole; have
been - left homeless and pennyless by the
fearful ravages of war. •
How the dominant Party of - the House
could be so far forgetllil of policy, if even,
-deaf to justice, as to , teach the two hun
dred thorusand - people of the ravaged coun
ties that they must look elsewhere alike
for,vindication from the vituperation of the
cowardly and malignant, and for even the
humblest recognition of their sacr ifi ces . i s
one of those political problems that, if
persisted in, dates the decline of protract
ed-political power. There was it iectiliar
significance, and to dispassionate minds a
..iingular degree of force, in the closing
Kpeech ofAir. ItPCittre in the' House on the
question: When he confessed its defeat and
Pointed to the
n etthses thereof. He has
borne humble part in achieving uud
sustaining the supremacy of the Union
lArganizallotiin this State, and none knows
better than he how narrowly it has been
°saved in past struggles, and, how doubtful
may be its success in future conflicts. - He
1 is not of these who would have proposed
any measure whose triumph would have
been at the cost of his cherished pOlitical
-- principles; and he did not appeal t o hi s
own side of the House to tickle the ears
H of
his constituents. His appeal was the
result of an irresistible conviction that,if
'unsuccessful, as the record was About to
be made up, the SOnthent. bord6r :Union
men would be causoiessly,doomed to cruel
exactions if not hopeless "discomfiture,
while in no part of Pennsylvania could
such crowning injuitice strengthen the
cause of right.
—For the present the Causeof theplun
dered border is postpond 7 -not overthrown.
The time will come when peace shall
again bless a united and free people, and
when Our sacrifices will be made the com
mon sacrifices of. a common people, and
to th4t day the wronged and suffering
must hope and wait.
A SO,PLEMENT to the'latia, law w a s
passed in - the Hours last week by Mr. Mc.
Clure,authorizing the Governor to uniform
such companies injhe border counties as
may drganiie and& the militia laws for
local defenee, and it will donbtlesi Pass
the Senate. We have ever regarded or
'ganizeil citizens as the very best possible
defense against raids. While armies can
not arrest raiding parties, armedand or
ganized citizens meeting them at every
defensible point, can render raiding im
practicable, especially in a region so dense
ly pojnilated axis ours. Companies were
partially okranized in Chambersburg.
Greencastle, Waynesboro', Mercersburg,
and Perhaps other points last fall ; and we
earnestly urge that those companies be
perfected and uniforms received under the
new Jaw. With 1,000 uniformed and arm
ed men in Franklin county, we can rest
in peace the coming simmer ; but if an
arnied we may have visits from Moseby
at his pleasure.
Tor freshet of last wet 4 was the great
est known iu the Susquehanna for ninny
years. All the railroads were thrown mit
of time, but we presume that ag were run
ning again by Monday kit. - Xone of the
great railroad bridges at Harrisburg were
destroyed, ulthoUgh the Cumberland Val
ley and Penusylvintia Central were slight
ly injured. We du not learn of any very
greitt damage having been done l)y the
flood.
Titti arnual election was held iu New
Hatupshile to, Tue-Alay of last week, and
the Unionists swept the State, by a largely
increased majority. electiiig r 'Governor,
three members of Congress '(on`e gain) and
pretty much all the legislature. 'Dover

ble that of Mr. Lincoln last fall. Democ
racy don't seem to vegetate down East
this season.-
THE Pittsburg Dispatch has been eularged and
vastly improved in its tue..-hanical appearance. It
is a spicy paper, ever up to the times in news, and
if its amiability could be improved with its typog

HARRISBURG
A Final Struggle for the Sufferers of the
- Border—Defeat of the Bill—The Debate
—The Vote—Border C o mpon les to be
Uniformed for LOoal Defence.
Correspou,deuee of the Franklin Repository.
IlAttxtilVix, Starch IF. 1e63
The bill for the r.djudieution of the military
damages' suffered by the border people was again
considered on Thursday evening, and again de
feated by nine majority, and it is now absolutely
dead for the present session. It has been a fruit
ful source of contention in the present House, and
disturbed both the sleeping and waking hours
of many membeft, Who seemed to suppose that
their future hopes of greatness—the fruition of
their present budding statesmanship with which
the scroll of- Fame is yet to be - illuminated, must
all be blasted if the despoiled people of the border
counties should be allowed, at their own cost, to
perpetuate the evidence of their sacriliees in this
war, so that a lust government might pay the
same in' its own goodtime.
The hill was first defeated by several votes (et
a motion to fix a session for its consideration.
That vote was afterwards reconsidered, and
Thursday evening of last week set 'apart ,fer it.
Of the discussion it elicited on that evening and
its defeat by one majority, I spoke in detail in
my lust letter. On the day following its defeat,
it was reconsidlred, and on Wednesday last, Mr.
McClure again asked for a special-.session to dis
pose of the bill finally, and it was agreed that
Thursday evening should be devoted to it. Mr.
Sharpe had been ill for several days, and was not
present until but a few hours before the 'special
session. He was then so enfeebled as tube una
ble to take any part in support of the measure b
yond voting for it. As before, a large audience
was attracted to the House, and notwithstanding
the terrible storm that raged, the galleries were
filled with ladies. Mr. Smith, of Philadelphia,
opened the discussion in support - of the bill, in a
brief but pointed and practical elucidation of its
protisions and purposes, when a general assault,
'a concentration of the enemy's fire seemed to be
brought in play to compass its destruction. From
o'clOck until 114 with the exception of a few
friendly remarks from Smith, and Barr, and a
short but eloquent 'and earnest speech from Mr.
Purdy, the whole time was consumed in attacks
upon the measure, and upon the border people.
Memel] of Dauphin, was nervous almost to dis
traction lest it should pass. Bemus protested in
the name of the North-west that the border peo
ple should take care of themselves; lifeKinley
and Vella insisted that notwithstanding the Mk
es of the border, its people were still richer than
their own constituents, and therefore no such
• debt should ho considered or paid, and McKinley
clincht4 the argument by insisting that the mem
ber from Franklin who had the bill in charge
(Mr. McClure) had lostover - $50,000; and was
still worth over $150,000 ; Denim opposed the bill
because he bad fought for the flag, and he feared
that if it passed,,the flag would Cease to flap for
his eye's to gaze upon; Manly declaimed for half
an hour most uriinteligibly, but was discovered at
last to be against the bill. Father Hill spoke
again apparently rather to maintain his own de;
termination to oppose the bill than to convince
Others. He seemed to fear that he should he
staggered again, as he confused himself before,
when the Franklin members. presented the rea
sons fur its passage, and he flanked them by' inn
king a speech against it. Ruddiman made the
main sPgeeh against the measure.;_ He is a young
member from Philadelphia, of fine scholastic ac
quiremeats; a close student; Mitarally gifted,
and not insensible of his attainments: He was
well prepared and delivered a beafiliful sopho
moric address—at times plausibteland always
eloquent, ankhad it not beettanswered, by an, ap
peal tp truth, to logic and to law, it would have
passed as worthy of the occasion uud of the sub
ject. Mr. ?I'Clure followed him: and it Was
painful to see the practical member from Frank
lin plunge into the poetry and posies of Mr.
Ruddinnin, and roothlessly tear the must ex
quisitely woven 'gralunds of imagery into 'count
less shreds in a few plain sentences. Ruddi
man told in pathetic tones bow he had been'on
the - WA:der when his people had rushed to defend
it, and McClure's reply on this point was as
startling as it was conclusive. Re said that his
4the franklin \ itepositim), illyunberabutg; pa.
people had enjoyed the defence'of the malitia in
1.8e2-3; tlmt spoliation marked their truck from
the Susquehanna southward; that they marched
and counter-nidtthed, and the desolation of the
border was the chief trionmneat of their bloodless
_achievements. But, said Mr. M'Clore, they were
not unmindful that this great State boasts a gov
ernment that can be just to all, and the poetical
liuddiman doubtless joined the thronged thous
ands in every part of the Commonwealth to de
mand their $l3 per.utoldh. The border people
had lost much more of time and than did the ma
lita, had sacrificed millions of their property to
the wants of the valiant defenders of tlw border
and to the ravages of the foe; but while a State
is convulsed to pay the malita for a few weeks
sere ice to defend their brethern and protect the
fame of the State; the lips' of the plundered peo
ple who were alike the iiefions of friend and foe,
must be sealed, and the Stahl , must not even pre
serve the evidence of their losses. Mr. M'Clure
spoke an hour, more earnestly if possible, than
the week before, and certainly with no less pow
er. He took the boldest grounds relative to these
claims—said that legislators and their constitu
ents might as well understand tins question Mos
mid prepare to meet it, for said he. with peenlit.r
emphasis—/.we claims mast and will be paid ; it
not now, by legislators &tire just and more leaf
ing; of the fame of the State that promises:pro
tection and exacls tribute, than those who now
are entrusted with the law-making power. He
said that he spoke for 200,0e0 people of the State,
and three millions could not afford to be unjust
to them. IJis appeal to the Union majority, and

Withiththe land w eek I have been through a
large portion of our army operating against Rich
mond. Since its organization in 1361, I have
never seen it in such excellent discipline and con

sickness . prevailing. A 4 to the - number of limn, it
is very large—perhaps containing doable the
number estimated by outsiders. There is every
indication of an early commencement Ad' active©
operations against the tottering capital of rebel
dom. .This indication can be observed in every
movement, both on land' and water. It can be
seen in the countenance of every soldier, and each
one is preparing_hhoself for it, and longing for
the order to march. Our soldiers know that the
end of this thing.is nigh, and they will, enter into
the coming movetnents With a heart and will that
they never felt before Our line of works about
Petersburg have been gradually shoved up toward
those of the enemy until there is not over eight_
hundred feet of neutral ground between them.
From in front of Petersburg toward our left, the
pickets of both sides maintain friendly relation's.
Nut so toward the right and near the Appomattox
river. There the enemy keep up a deadly hatred,
embrging 'every opportunity to fire at-nor pick
eis. More or less of oar men are shot doss n every

Rebel desertions continue to our lines nightly.
Were it net for the momilight nights and the ex
traordinary precaution exercised by the rebel
officers in posting pickets, and increasing ligilance
over them, there would be hundreds every night,
us among the rank and file of their army there is
a perfect panic over the movements of Sherman.
There-is a'great deal of gossip on the street
about the return of the Peace Commissioners, to
accept the terms laid down by Mr. Lincoln. As
yeet there seems no foundation for the report, but
it would not hit surprising to learn that Dm is has
_resigned and that the remainder of the rebels are
ready to accept any terms to save themselves us
much no possible.
Seine people got it 'RIO their beads that James
Gordon Bennett, editor'of the New York Heruld,
was a - bout to be appointed Minister to France.
That would have been " n big thing ou ice." To
day the thing was set at rest. John Bigelow. the
l a te Consul to Paris, and present Charge d'Atfrirs
has received the appointment.
From the conversation we had with Gen. Grant,
we learn that there la ill not remain a single Union
,prisoner, able to he unwed, and not taken within
the last two weeks, in the hands of the enemy' by
the end of this week.
Since the adjournment of Congress our city has

Union candidates in Roman; Democratic, in Italic.
In the 'North ward Mr. G. W. Snider, the Union
candidate for Constable declined, when Messrs.
Barnitz and Thomas, both good Union men, an
nounced themselves as independent candidates,
but as it was nut generally known, and Mr. Sny
der's name being on the printed tickets, he was
stilt elected.
ANOTHER COPPERHEAD OUTRAGE—The Ful
ton Republican says that for the lait two or three
weeks a gang of Copperheads from Bedford and
Fulton counties have congregated in Whip's Hap,
in that county, from which they have nightly sal
lied forth, stealing and destroying the property
of Union men wherever they came across it. On
Saturday night last, between 9 and 10 o'clock, a
party of these home rebels made a descent upon
the premises of Mr. Henry Hull, in Brush Creek
townshipi, a well known Union man, and under
the cover of darkness, carried straw sufficient to
surronad all the doors of the - barn, after which
they set fire thereto. - As a matter of course, the
barn, and all its contents, including seven bead of
cattle, two horses and thirty sheep was totally
destroyed. Owing to the terror of the Union in
habitants of the Cove, (some ten or twelve families
in all) each and all of whom have been repeatedly .
notified that they would be burned out, no oneof
them would venture to the scene of conflagration,.
each feeling that by careful watching only could
he protect his premises from the incendiary hands'
of these rebel Vandals. During the fire the "vol-
Cell of the incarnate fiends were heard in merry
jubilation over the dastardly work of their hands.
We cau conceive of no act of more devilish ma
lignity toward a defencele'ss old Man, norof more
fitndish cruelty toward poor dumb brutes, than
the above. Mr. Hull is over 72 years old, and af
ter giving one son a sacrifice to Slave-breeding
Treason, is.thus stripped, with a worse thati Se
poy fiendishneAs, of the accumulations of king
years orweary toil. These acts call aloud for ven
geance. How long must these peopi7saffer for
the want of adequate military protection'? •
