From St. Augustine.
Once, fur All.
Callaglinn.
A couple of weeks since, Vrc published
iri these' columns a letter purporting to
have been written by- one Andrew Cai,
laguax, a member of Co. K, 125th I 'a.
"Vol. said letter having been furnished
ust without solicitation, by a friend. The
.letter was a bona fide document, with' Mr.
Callauhan's signature attached, as such
tvaa confided to our hands, and as fciich we
printed it. Subsequently, however, Mr.
Ci Comes out in a card in the Dtm. ct
Sent., stating that, unfortunately, he is
unable to write, and that the communica
tion in question had been gotten up by
' "an acquaintance," who, instead of wri-
ting Mr. C's sentiments, "wrote his own."
Furthermore, he 6ays that his political
nentinienta were "misrepresented" in that
letter," and that he has not "changed his
politics."
All of which must be-peculiarly aggra
vating to Mr. Callaghan. - But, if we
.- understand the spirit of the letterin quea-
tion aright, it were totally unnecessary
for Mr. C "or any other true Democrat to
"change his politics" in order to be ena
bled to .endorse the sentiments therein
contained. They breathe nothing but a
ppirit of loyalty to the Government and
love for our good old Uupn a platform
upon which every honest, unprejudiced
man, and more especially a soldier wear
ing the livery of his country, should be
content, to stand. That the sentiments
eniaced in the letter were not Mr. Cs
bwflf but those of his amanuensis, we arc
. sorry to learn, for they are sentiments no
one ph.ould hesitate to subscribe to. The
country is ashamed of men who are asha
incd of such sentiments.
The Dem. & Sent, lays great stress ou
Ihb Charge that, in this instance, Tre have
been guilty of "slandering' a Union sol
dier,", "a " man whose misfortune it is to
be illiterate," &c. Now, we submit wheth
tr we can be held responsible for this
perversion of "Mr, Callauhan's senti
ments, if perversion it be. ' The letter
was written, according to the gentleman's
- own avowal, by-"an acquaintance ;"" it
was mailed to a gentleman in this county,
by whom it was duly received j and, ulti
mately, it found its way into our bauds,
with a request to publish. We gave it a
place in our columns, not With the expec-rcv tinkling, sounds, when they go forth to
tatiou that it would raise anj'thing of a
breeze in the political world, but, rather,
to show Copperhead Loeo-Focos what our
soldiers tjiink of them. And wc still in
sist that the letter we published under
Mr. Callauhan's signature breathes the
convictions and honest belief of nine
tenths of the army.
The question now arises: Inasmuch
as Mr. Callauhan is avowedly unable
-to write, how are we to know that the
-
card in .the Dtm. & Sent.- is of Itis pro
- mulgation ? ,It is not certified to noth
ing whatever is given to prove its authen
ticity. May it not have been penned by
pome mercenary, with the double purpose
of maligning Mr. C. and of disproving 77ie
Atteghanian f May it not be a fabrication
from beginning to end a slander against
"a man whose misfortune" it is to be illit
erate ?" May it not be the bogus, and
ours the genuine letter? In short, may
not the Dem. it Sent, be guilty of the
very crime it ?o strenuously but abortively
strives to fafcten upon us ? The general
character of that journal would justify us
iu arriving at these latter conclusions.
A friend sends us the particulars of a
Copperhead meeting held at St.. Augus
tine, this county, on ihc 18th inst., from
which we glean the following iuformatijn.
Joseph Moters was selected to pre
side over the deliberations of the assem
blage, assisted by a number of Vice Pres
idents. &C. IMNIEL LlTZINGER W8S first
requested to address the meeting, but
iuiled to respond. 11. L. Johnston, Esq.,
was thereupon invited to come forward
and unbosom himself. This he did, in
his stereotyped style. He denounced the
Administration in good set terms,' aver
ring that it and not the South had brought
on the war; condemned the Conscript
act as unconstitutional; had a few words
to offer concerning the Crittenden Com
promise ; and vehemently cautioned his
hearers against turning a listening ear to
the allurements of . Union- Leagues. In
the speaker's estimation, they were noth
ing but the "Dark Lantern" organization
revived under a new name. This extra -ordinary
statement occurs in our corre
spondent's epitome of Mr. J.'s remarks :
"This war is a crusade against the South,
to supplant her white population with the
negro or Yankee noC much difference
which." Comment on this would he su
perfluous !
P. S. Noon, Esq., was the next speaker,
lie was quite severe on the Administra
tion, neither did. he spare the Conscription
act. Speaking of this latter measure, he
said '"it is unconstitutional, and he was
ready to stand up with ono and all at
home to oppose it to the bitter end." .
Come one, coine all! this rock shall fly
from its firm base as soon as I or any
other man !
This was about all. It amounted to
nothing more nor less than a meeting of
the "Eber.sburg Democratic. Club" held
at St. Augustine. The same dogmas were
proclaimed there, by the same men, that
we have heretofore noticed as emanating
from our Town Hall. To read the pro
ceedings of these various meetings as they
appear in the Loco-Fceo prints, one might
alaiost.be persuaded to imagine that a
violent reaction tending toward insurrec
tion was .setting in throughout the length
and breadth of the count. . This may or
may not be so. One thing is certain,
however these dlsuflcuted gatherings, hi
this end of the county, are the sole work
of a few political harpies of the Lco-Foco
persuasion, who, from the envernsome
depths of the Town Hall, aspire to shape
the course of their party to suit their own
selfish ends." 15y them'are the meetings
called, and by them engineered through
their devious windings. As a matter of
course, the 'rank and file" and who
don't know exactly what the rank and file
of Loco-Focoism means ? chime iu, to n
greater or Icas extent.
i4As roams the herd beneath the bull's pro
tection, Or as a little dog will lead the blind,
Or a bell-wether from the flock's connection,
Our gushing fiiend, the Dem. d Sent. ,
is in a bad way. It is worried. To use
a homely yet expressive phrase, it; finds
itselt ."in a peck of trouble." " And all
"because, by reason of its own indiscretion,
it has succeeded in landing itself high and
dry ' on a very sharp horn of one of the
uumcrous family of dilemma. To extri
cate . itself therefrom seems impossible,
and so it contents itself with the next
best thing it grumbles deeply and loudly
at the evil chance that worked its down
fal!, and vilifies The AlUyhaniart between
times.
Some" weeks since, Sergt Evan Davis,
of Co. D, 115th Penua. ols., preferred
certain charges against the. editor of the
Dem. & Sent., prominent among which
was the one that a certain communication
written by him (Scrgt. D.), of date Feb
ruary 21st, Was mutilated and its senti
ments tampered with bcfoie its insertion
in that journal. Sergt D., feeling him
self aggrieved at this criminal discourtesy,
and desiring to be set before the public in
the true light of his principles, also, made
a direct demand that the Dem. k Sent.
reproduce this letter, and publish it as
originally written.
Does the Dem. & Sent, accede to this
reasonable rt quest? Does it endeavor to
do unto its correspondent as it would have
others do unto it ? Docs it try to -make
amends for the wrong inflicted ? Or docs
it even attempt sin explanation " No I--
Hut instead, it flies into a passion, and
strikes blindly at space, and calls harsh
names, and indulges n deceptive gener
alities, and does other ridiculous things,
thereby fully establishing its own guilt
and sense of weakness. Of course this is
all nothing, to us we are concerned nei
ther one way nor the other in the matter.
Yet we are free to say that this singular
course of our neighbor is, to our thinking,
a strong indication of guilt. . Tt favors the
presumption that a screw is loose some
where. It causes tho conclusion to be
come it resistible that the charges laid at
the door of the Dim. & S-nt. are correct
in the main and fully Mtsfained. ; Else
why this manifest unwillingness to repro
duce this letter characterized as "an out
rage' by the one upon whom its author
ship is endeavored tojbe palmed? a letter
buuslingly asserted by our iieiglifror ttT'hc
ready lor production at any moment, .yet
never produced ! :''.
The Dtm. d' Sent., as a clincher, says
that if Sergt. Evan DavIs demands the
republication of his letters, he -hall be
gratified. Scrgt. Davis ht$ most joi
tively demanded the republication of this
21st of February letter. Produce it. .

So do the "Democracy" allow themselves
to be led misled by a miserable,- paltry
few.
The '-Ebensburg Democratic Club"
and its leaders are smring the wind. , They
need not be surprVed if, in the course of
time, they reap the whirlwind.
Et In, Brule!
. One incident connected with the
Copperhead meeting held at Munster, on
f lie 30th ult., was omitted in our corre-
Lieut. KmvABU 11. Duxegan, of Co.
K, 125th Penna. Vols., has manifested
himself in a briiif card, wherein he states
thaf his ifhme was attached to a set ot
resolutions lately passed by said regiment
through a misconception. "Some of the
resolutions," he . says, "he cheerfully
endorses, but the majority of them he
docs not nor never will endorse."
We published these resolutions' a few
weeks since, and our reaHcrs arc requested
to re-read them, ; to see the sentiments
which Lieut Dunegan thus emphatically
refuses to endorse. If they can find any
thing therein- contained that . conflicts
with tho duty of a soldier of a patriot
of a nuoi we must confess they; can do
more than we.
Un the other hand, it they do not
decide that these resolutions constitute
a platform of principles which every
i soldier- and more particularly a soldier
tpondent's account of that affair. On the
eelecUon .of officers for the meeting, Mr. Spo,t:ngkWo7crrTS--ii. bound in honor
Jasies Thomas, of that township, was
duly chosen Secretary. Being a good
Union man, and opposed to partisanship
in tho . present aspect of our .National
Affairs, that gentleman positively refused
to serve in that or any other -capacity in
such company, stating that although a
Democrat J heies no -Coppeihcad! This
was a most sigal rebuke from an unex
pected quarter, and we mention it to show
that some good may come out of even fuch
a Nazareth a Muntcr township.
to subscribe to, to accept as his bond of
faith with the Government, then must we
admit the oath taken by all soldiers upon
-entering the service of the United States
to be a mere rope of sand, of no force or
binding. . : , .
. Our only wonder is, that Lieut Dune
can has consented to remain thus long as
part and parcel ofca regiment the majority
of whom are so loyal and through -going.

The State Legislature adjourned fine
die on the 15th inst! Immediately prior
thereto, his Excellency the Governor, in
a brief and patriotic message, announced
his intention of retiring from the service
of the State at the close of his present
term. Iu so announcing, he takes occa
sion to recapitulate the part Pennsylvania
has. borne in the present war, which he
does with equal modesty and truth. His
own part - in these works has been so
prominent he has been so constantly and
unselfishly the friend of the Administra
tion iu times of danger he has been so
prompt, that the history of Pennsylvania
and her struirgles for the cause is nothing
more than the history of the Governor's
administration. In announcing - his re
tirement, Governor Cuktin can feel that
I-he has executed his duty like a faithful pub
lic servant, of whom it may truly be said,
"Well done." Here :s the message :
Executive Ciiamheh, IIaurisbikg,
April 10, IbtiH.
Tu the Senate and Iluttse uf Rin'tsi-nltitices
of the. Common iceu It h of lnitsyUania :
Gktlf.mkn : In taking leave of you at
tho clo.-e of the session, I think it propes
under existing circumstances, to go beyond
the uual formalities.
The -partiality of my fellow citizens
placed me in the office which 1 now hold
at a period cf great public distraction
which soon culminated in the breaking
out of the rebellion which is still-raging.
The country had so long slumbered in
unbroken tranquility, that we had in this
State almost forgotten the possibility of
any violation ol our domestic peace. -Even
our militia laws had been suffered to
fall into disusCi aud were reduced to a
merely permissive organization of a few
uniformed volunteer compauies iu various
parti of the State. The whole mind of
our people was directed to peaceful and
industrial pursuits, conscious of no inten
t:on to -injure the rights or interests
of others or iu any way to violate the
Constitution undei which we had thriven;
they were unable to realize the designs of
wicked and abandoned men, even after
they had been . publicly and boastiuly
proclaimed. Although for' many months
war had been actually levied against the
United States in South Carolina and else
where, it is a fact that the people of this
Commonwealth were first startled into a
seiife of the common danger by the
bombardment of Fort Sumter. The Leg
islatuie was then in scsion, and immedi
ately maJa uli prnrLiiona ss was at the
moment deemed uecessary.. lut shortly
af'ter its adjournment, cvciifs having rapid
ly advanced, and the capitol of the coun
try being iu apparent danger, I deemed it
necessary to ,conveue it again early in
May, 1HG1, to adopt measures for placing
the Slate on a footing adequate to t lie
emergency. This was promptly and ehcr
fully doi.c. Five hundred thousaud-dollars
had been appropriated at the regular
session for military purposes, and to that
sum was then added authority to borrow

loved ones at home were upon and with

The result is, that Pennsylvania is
actually in a position on which it is my
duty to congratulate you as her represen
tative. Notwithstanding the immense
drain of her population, her industry U
thriving at home ; and, so far as .it may
not be hurt by cau.-es over which she. ha
no control, must continue to prosper.
Her finances were never in a more healthy
condition ; her people were never iu better
heart.
That the labors, anxieties, and responsi
bilities of her Executive have bocu great
and harrassinglneed not say; I have, given
to them my nigTits and days, with, 1 trust,
a tingle eye- to the public welfare. 1
claim no special merit in this; I would
have been unworthy to be called a man
had I done otherwise. If I am proud of
the result, it is that I am proud of the
people who have effected it.
To be called a freemen of Pennsylvania
is henceforth to have a title of honor
wherever loyalty, patriotism, and martial
virtues are cherished. It is to be observ
ed, moreover, that the labors which I
have necessarily undergone have already
impaired my health.
I should have serious cause to appre
hend that a much longer contiuuancc ol
theni might so break.it down as to render
me unable to fulfil the duties of my posU
tiou. It is to be added that, as the ap
proaching season will probably be the
most eventful period in the history of the
country, I will be able with mre effect to
discharge my duties if I avoid being
made the centre ot an active political
