Our Country's Future.
It needs no- prophetic ken to look thro'
the thin curtain which hides the future
from our gaze, and behold 'the glorious
destiny awaiting this country. A thous
and problems that have puzzled the brains
of the wisest statesmen that have lived
before us, and bewildered the judgment
of tje living, have been solved in this
war. The rebels themselves have wiped
out slavery, and knocked pway the chief
CDrr.er-stone of their boasted confederacy.
They have done that which no human
foresight before the war could see a way
ot accomplishing. The rebellion has de
veloped our resources, and shown U3 our
ability to suffer. It ha3 brought to light
a thousand facts relating to our nationali
ty of which the people never even dreamed.
It lias astonished the nations of the old
world. Our powerj of endurance and
ability to cope with the most gigantic re
bellion the world ever saw have demon
strated to European monarchs that repub
lican governments possess a vitality aud
power hitherto unknown stronger than
the strongest despotism. All these things
have Deen clearing away the clmids that
intervene between us and the future, to
the showing, clearly and distinctly, the
glorious destiny awaiting us.
When this rebellion shall have gone
under, we shall be the strongest nation on
the globe in a military point of view.
Tho rebellion has developed the highest
order of military geniu3. It has thrown
upon the surface and brought to light an
old fact, almost forgotten, that the great
est generals oftentimes grow" up from
among the people. Among our present
military chieftains, we havo men second
to none of those whose names are enrolled
highest upon tho page ot history. When
did the world ever behold mora exalted
military genius than has been exhibited
by Grant, Sherman, Butler, and a host of
lesser light3 who have figured iu this war?
With the rebellion over, wn shall have
experienced, accomplished officers enough
to whip the world, if provided with com
petent armies; while the men that will
have been trained to the dangers and re
sponsibilities of the field and camp sol
diers acknowleigcdiy the best the world
ever saw will be counted by hundreds of
thousands, tn a word, we shal! be essen
tially a warlike people a natiou to be
feared and respected.
The higher Christian civilization of the
North, with its wore progressive spirit,
which Blavery has hl'hertd excluded from
the South, will travel over the whele ter
ritory south of Masou and Dixon's line,
and incorporate itself into the habits,
eustoms, laws aud usages of society. The
fertile soil of the South, no longer cursed
with the blights and mildews of slavery,
utider the' influence of Northern industry
will blossom like the rose. The agricul
tural prduc:s of the South will be more
than quadrupled within four years of the
eiosiug of the war,, while the change for
the better in the iflauufacturing interest
will be ever, more striking.
The public domain will be divided up
into pmaller plantations, or still smalleF
farm?, and iustead of a few rich blavehold
irs owning ell the soil, it will bo distribu
ted in more equal proportions among the
i::duttricu mantes. The Uul monopoly
which has so long cursed the South, crea
ting wide distinctions in society, enabling
the few to oppress the many, will thus be
broken down. The moral and religious
tone of society will be changed. The
immoralities of slavery so degrading to
every community, will be done away with,
and a higher civilization take their place.
The change in this respect cannot fail to
be wonderful. Slavery has made barbari
ans of tho whole South, and plunged the
race iuto the very cesspools of moral
degradation. From this degradation has
sprung up its legitimate fruit this unholy
rebellion. But the moral atmosphere of
the whole South will come out of the
conflict of war purified as by fire.
Education in the South will hereafter
be extended to the masses, instead of being
coofiued to a select few. The common
school will travel into Dixie, and there
take up its permanent abode. The "school
house" will, in coining years, be one of the
established institutions of the South. This
will and must work out an astonishing re
sult in Southern society a chango that
will astonish no one so much as the South
erner himself.
Northern men in coming years will be
allowed to travel safely in the South, and
express the same opinions they do North,
without endangering their lives and their
all. For years there has been a most
wanton disregard shown the rights of the
people of the free States by their "South
ern brethren." The American flag has
been no security or protection to an Amer
ican citizen in any of the Southern States
for a long series of yean. Northern men,
and even women, traveling South have
been whipped, tarred and feathered, im
prisoned, shot, hung, and butchered like
dogs, for no other crime than expressing
opinions in consonance with the Bible and
the Declaration of Independence. "When
slavery is gone, all this barbarism goes
with it. W hat a glorious changs in the
right direction !
We shall, in fact, be what we have
claimed to be a nation of freemen, a land
of Libeity. When that "sum of all vil
lainies," slavery, is wiped out, we shall
have a purely republican govern ooent,
based upon the fundamental theory of
equal rights to all. Free labor instead of
slave labor will greatly exalt and bring up
the masses. The dignity of labor will be
fully vindicated. We might go on to en
large upon this fruitful topic, but we
desist. Let the bright prospect ahead
cheer up every halting patriot, nerve every
arm, encourage every heart, and fire with
renewed zeal all, to the glorious work of
crushing out the rebellion, and vindicating
the rightful authority of the government
over every foot of soil within its spacious
limits.
Volunteers for the State Guard.
It is now clearly understood, says the
flarrisburg TtlegropJi, that all volunteers
for the first five regiments of the State
Guard will, if embraced in any future
drafts, be furloughcd by the War Depart
ment for the time they actually remain in
tho State service. And when this time in
the State Guard ia served out, it will be
regarded as the expiration of this furlough,
the man thereafter to be ordered into the
United States army, there to complete the
time for which he i3 drafted. .All euch
volunteers will also be credited on any
future drafts which the War Department
may make for their full term of service to
the State, thus: If a volunteer in the
State Guard serves one year, and he should
after the expiration ol his time be drafted
by the United StateV, for two or more
years, he will receive a credit on such
a draft of the year devoted to tho State.
These are important facts, and will no
doubt induce the speedy filliug up of
the first five regiments of the State
Guard.
There is little additional and nothing
positively certain to add to the intelligence
concerning the movements of Sher;nan.
There is no reason to doubt, however, that
he either has conducted or will couduet
his entire army io the coast, without any
material loss,
Bragg sent a dispatch to Davis that he
had defeated the force sent by Foster to
co-operate with Sherman from Port Royal,
but as Foster has since been heard from
and isull right, little importance is attached
to Bragg's dispatch, or to tbe hopes ex
pressed by the rebel papcra of being able
to cut off Sherman before reaching the
coast. "
In the absence of particulars, wo cons-id'
er it certain that Sherman has gone thro
in spite of everything, and that be will
soon be in a position to enter upon tho
imporfant operations ot which his great
march was the precursor. Such certainly
is the belief in Washington.
Legality ot the Soldiers' Tote.
Attorney-General Meredith has just
delivered the following opinion with respect
to the case growing out of the contested
election in the XVIth Judicial District,
Pennsylvania :
i OPINION.
The election of Judges is provided for
by the act of the 15th April, 1851. The
sixth section of that act provides that in
case of the election of President Judge of
any Judicial District composed of two or
more counties, the clerks of the. return
judges of each county shall make out a
lair statement of all the votes which shall
have been given at such election within
the county for every person voted for,
which shall be signed by said judges and
attested by the clerks. This statement is
requireH to be produced at a meeting of
the return judges of the district. The
duty of the return judges of the district is
set forth in the seventh section, which
provides that they shall cast up the sever
al county returns, and make a sufficient
number of copies of a general return of all
the votes given for such office in said dis
trict, all cf which they shall certify, and
one of which they shall transmit to the
Secretary of the Commonwealth in the
manner provided in the act. The tenth
section of the act requires the Governor
to grant commissions to the persons
elected.
The district return judges of the 16th
Judicial District, composed of the counties
of Franklin, Bedford, Somerset, and Ful
ton, have transmitted to the Secretary of
the Commonwealth a return in which they
state that they have not included the
Bedford county return of the soldiers'
votes, a copy of which tbey annex, and
they assign as the reason for not including
it, that said return was not certified to by
nine of the return judges of Bedford
county. The return in question is signed
by thirteen of the county return judges,
forming, therefore, a majority of the whole
number. The reason assigned for not in
cluding this return is palpably insufficient.
As the authority of the return judges
concerns matters oi a public nature, a ma
jority may act at a meeting lawfully
assembled, and their meeting is presumed
to be lawful in the absence of proof to the
contrary.
The clause in the seventy-ninth sectiDn
ot the act of 1S39, providing that the re
turns shall be signed by all the judges
present, does not govern the present case,
and, if it did, it would be construed, 1st,
as directing, merely; and, 2d, it would be
presumed that the return was signed by
all the judges then present, in the absence
of proof to the contrary.
If the said soldiers' vote of Bedford
county be included, Alexander King has a
majority of all the votes to the district, aDd
is elected President Judge.
The question on which the Governor
requests my ooiuion is, whether it is the
duty of the Governor to include the said
soldiers' vote in ascertaining to whom tbe
commission should be granted.
The district return judges have stated
io their return that Francis M. Kimmell,
having received the highest number of
votes, is duly elected.
This statement 13 of no effect whatever.
The law gives them no authority to de
clare who is elected. Their duty is sim
ply to cast" up the county returns, and
make a general return of all the votes
given for the office. In this respect the
act of 1851, regulating the election of
judges, differs from the act of 1839, the
82d section of which, relating to the elec
tion of members ot Congress, and of the
State Senate and House, provides that tho
district return judges shall also return the
name of the perpen or persons elected, and
the 83d section provides that the return
judges shall in every case transmit to each
of the persons elected to serve in Con
gress, or the State Legislature, a certificate
of his election. It would not be difficult
to suggest reasons for this difference, but
it is enough to say that the Legislature
has thought fit to make it, and that tho
present case must be governed by the act
ofl8Cl.
The Governor then has before him the
return of the district return judges, from
which he is toa-certaia who is the person
entitled to receive the commission. This
is to be done by counting the votes given'
tor the several candidates, and of course
the candidate having a majority of the
votes is legally elected and should be com
missioned. ,
In counting the votes, I am of opinion
that the Governor has no more right to
throw out the soldiers' vote for Bedford
County than he would have to throw out
ths whole vote of any one ot the counties
in the district. It is true that the dis
trict judges state that they have not in
cluded it, but they return a copy of the
county return of it, and the Governor, by
refusing under such circumstances to
count it, would bo acting as illegally as
the district return judges themselves.
In fact, the paper transmitted by the
district return judges to the Secretary of
the Commonwealth as their return, taking
the whole of it together, doe3 clearly show
that Alexander King had a majority of
the votes in the district for President
Judge, and is duly elected to that office,
and in my opinion the Governor is bouud
to grant him a commission accordingly.
(Signed, W. M. MEREDITH,
Attorney General.

Congress met on Monday. The
opening was signalized by no event of im
portance. The President sent in his
Message to both Houses on Tuesday.
Gen. Roger A. Pryor was captured
by our force in front of Petersburg a few
days since.
Will There be a Draft f
We have referred to the order for cor
recting the enrollment lists as indicative
of another draft, and that, too, at no dis
tant day, unless the armies are kept up by
enlistments. New York and Boston are
thus interpreting not only tho order, but
the general situation; and, taking every
thing into consideration, it will be wise if
this conclusion becomes general. For
some reason or other, drafting, although
seemingly the only way to secure soldiers
at such times and in such numbers as they
are needed, has thus fur failed to complete
ly accomplish that object. Under the
700,000 call, not over 50,000 men were
actually put into the army. The three
hundred dollar exemption clause, it was
alleged, worked the incalculable mischief.
Congress repealed it, and under the new
law another : call for 500,000 was made,
but it 13 alleged, on authority, not over
120.000 men have actually been put into
the service under it, credits ot every
description, desertions, and systematic
efforts, in various ways, of faithless men
and domestic enemies, having measurably
defeated the confident expectations of
Congress.
As between drafting and the volunteer
system, there can he no doubt which is the
best. Nothing is morp certain than that
the former, if the result! given are correct,
has proved unequal to expectation. After
all we have done in that line, our armies
to-day are mado up of volunteers, and they
will contiuue to be. Experience has
proved that it is in this direction wo must
look, that cn efforts in this behalf we must
rely, to keep our armies up. It is doubt
less true, that thefear of the draft stimu
lates the country to secure volunteers; but
it is an unsafe reliance, and an essentially
unsound reversal of motive. The vote
thrown at the recent election proves that
there is no exhaustion. In the absence of
any new legislation, the efforts of individ
uals and of communities, acting as organ
ized bodies, must be depended on to stim
ulate volunteering, and to supply tbe
wanti of the Government.
The season is favorable for procuring
men. In some of tbe large cities little
difficulty is experienced in procuring them
at fixed bounties. If there is to be another
draft, it may come sooner than we expect.
Let us, therefore, bestir ourselves for
volunteers. The New Volunteer Corps, to
be commanded by our gallant Hancock, is
an excellent starting point. The order
under which it is to be recruited is liberal,
and appeals to the patriotism of the
country. An especial feature is that re
cruits will be credited to the district in
which they or their families are domiciled,
and will be paid a special bounty of three
hundred dollars from the substitute fund
upon being mustered into service, or two
hundred dollars more than one years' men
have been entitled to. The city, county,
ward, and, in thore cases where they are
given, State bounties will thus amount at
the least to six hundred dollars. These
advantages, all included within the service
of one year, will not fail to be appreciated
by every veteran to whom they appeal.

Extraordinary Endurance.
Private Wm. N. Kellcrman, enlisted in
Company B, One Hundred and Forty
eighth Pennsylvania volunteers, March 1,
1864. At the battle of Po river, on the
10th of May, he received three distinct
wounds, one on tho right fchoulder, anoth
er on the chin, and the third near his
right eye, entirely depriving him of the
use of it. He rejoiued his regiment on
the 13th of August, when the Second
Corps wa9 on the march to Deep Bottom.
Tbe following day he was so injured by
the concussion of a shell that he was
removed from the field insensible, and was
not enabled to report for duty until the
13th of October. On the 27th of that
month, and while the Second and Third
divisions were making a reconnoissance on
the left, Gen. Mile, commanding the First
division, directed a demonstration on the
rebel fort iu front of his line. Kellcrman
was selected, with others, for the purpose.
They charged amid a heavy fire, and
succeeded in driving the enemy from the
fort, capturing a number of prisoners, with
whom Kellerman was sent to the rear.
Having performed this duty, he started
back to rejoin his comrades. In the mean
time tho rebels had rallied, and our men
were compelled to fall back. Kellerman
iu the darkness did not observe this until
near the fort, when he came upon the
rebel picket line, which had been estab
lished in his absence. Fortunately he was
not discovered, and sinking down he 3rept
into a small ravine, hoping to make his
escape during the night. Soon after a
rebel vidette was thrown out a few feet in
advance of where he lay, thus placing him
between the vidette and the skirmish line.
In this position he lay until the night ot
the 2d of November, a period of six days,
exposed to the wind and rain, and the
cold, freezing atmosphere of , the nights,
without food or drink, chewing the leaves
and roots within reach of his arm, deter
mined not to surrender himself to the
enemy, which he could have done at any
moment with safety.
On the night of the 2d, tho enemy hav
ing relaxed his vigilance, he succeeded in
reaching our lines, crawling on his hands
and knees, and bringing with him his
accoutrements and Spencer rifle. On be
ing taken to the hospital he was utterly
exhausted, his hands and feet were badly
frozen, and the toes of his right foot some
what gangrenous. He was unable to
swallow for the first day, but on the second
beef tea and other nourishing and stimu
lating liquors 'were administered with tha
best effect. He has to a great extent re
covered the use of his hands and feet, and
bids fair at no distant day to be able to
tejoin his regiment.
Gen. Miles has forwarded a recommen
dation that as a reward for his unexampled
fortitude and heroism in refusing to sur
render himself to the enemy under such
trying circumstances, he be granted a
furlough for thirty days, and be awarded
a metal honor. m
God In the Constitution.
A convention was in session in Phila
delphia, which had for its object the
securing of an amendment to the Consti
tution of the United States, "which shall
honor God by thankfully avowing Him as
our Supreme Father and Ruler, and bless
man by securing him universal liberty and
all of. his other inalienable rights." A
petition to the President and Congress has
bzen prepared, and is in circulation for
signature. To the petition is appended
an argument in which is set forth the fact
that the framers of the Constitution made
twelve amendments to it iu fourteen years;
that sixty years have elapsed since the last
one ; that progress is a duty, and what
ought to be can be, if we pray with faith,
and work to help to answer our own
prayers; that our present Constitution
shows striking signs of French infidelity,
and that it has less of Christianity in it
than the Declaration of Independence or
the Articles of Confederation. It is urged
that at least one million signatures be ap
pended before it is presented on the 4th
of March, 1865.
m m m
A serious fight occurred at Timber
Ridge, Fulton county, on the 2d, between
a squad of soldiers and a lot of delinquent
conscripts and deserters. An attempt was
made by the soldiers to arrest fome of the
latter, which was resisted. The eoldiers
then opened fire, and a general battle en
sued, lasting about an hour. The con
scripts and deserters were finally routed,
with a loss of one man killed and two
wounded. None of the soldiers were in
jured. iS. Reynolds, of Lafayette, Ind.,
was recently arrested by Capt. M'Quiddy,
chief of staff to Gen. Hovey. He stands
charged with recruiting for tbe rebel army
and the evidence is said to be conclusive
If convicted, the penalty is death.
