OUR VOLUNTEERS
No little disappointment iv felt among the
members of our three companies of volunteers
under Captains McCartney, Henderson and
Todd, beside others in process of organizat ioh,
because they were not ac...epted by the Exec
utive; and some blame is naturally thrown on
the Military Bureau at Harrisburg, as to mis
management or favoritism, in mustering into
the service of the Government, companies
formed subsequent to their organization. We
feel assured however, that any charges of this
nature, against the Governor, the Adjutant
General or other officers connected with the
reception of the Pennsylvania troops, are on
tirely groundless.
In the spontaneous movement of the people,
in answer to the call of the President, when
companies and regiments far beyond the quo
ta allowed from. Pennsylvania, poured daily
into Harrisburg, many of them without orders
from the &cite authorities, and without 'notice
go them ; without arms, clothing, or camp
equipage,.we can easily imagine the embar
rassment and confusion attendant ou L such a
Mate of things, and should be willing to make
liberal allowance for errors and mistakes, con-
eoquent upon a want of system for so lerga
a force, by inexperienced officers, in an emer
----.Bency of such magnitude. The special mes
sage of the Governor to the Legislature of"
the 3d inst.. *which will be found in another
column, explains why so many troops were
accepted beyond the first requisition, and wo
feel asKed that all the officers connected
With him,ve been equally zealous and im
partial, in th - Odiseharge of the responsible du
ties which were so suddenly cast upon theta
We hope the Legislature will at once adopt
the suggestion of the Governor, by a liberal
and comprehensive law, to provide for the
military necessities of the State. With twr
Itteeks notice. fifteen to twenty regiments cad
Id organized in Pennsylvania, and formed in
.- o camps of instruction at various points, as a
eserve corps, to cover the forces at advanced
soots, ready to act efficiently when called for.
If they should not be required by the Govern
bent, the State will still have gained by the
thorough milit'sry training given to that per-
Hon of her citizens on whom she must rely
for defense, should troubles arise in the fu
tare.
Military Forces of Pennsylvania
Col. E. M. Biddle, Adjutant General, has,
ender a resolution of the Legislature, repor
ted to,that body a list of the companies mus
tered in thettervice of the 'United States, as
- .ell as of those offered and not et accepted.
Yrom this report we learn that two hundred
land eighty-three companies. regiments and
battalions, have been offered to the Govern -
:tient, but were not accepted owing to the
feet, that the requisition for troops was filled
befoie their services were. tendered. This
force amounts to about 26,000 men. The force
new in service, including eight regiments of
tote First litiaieion of Philadelphia, numbers
siberit, 18,000 men, making an aggregate force
Of forty-three thousand. When it is known
{hat these troops were Organizeq within three
!leeks of the proclamation of the President,

Maryland, by the Northern Central, and the

corps will be organized at Annapolis to be
ready to march onaltirnore, in case the route

ernment now has complete control of the rail

Senator Johnson will soon make a tour of
Tennesse, in hopes of saving that. State from
the whirlpool of secession.
Advises from Washington state that several
of those officers of the United States Army,
who resigned their commissions, and after
wards failed to get appointments in the rebel
army, have had the impudence to ask the Sec
rotary to restore them to the service; but they
have met with an emphatic refusal.
Among the recent resignations in the army
are Colonel Emory, of the first cavalry, Major
Mordecai of the ordnance, and Major R. B.
Lee. commissary of subgisience.
Major Anderson, - with the consent of the
President, has accepted the command of the
Kentucky brigade.
It is believed to be the intention of the Ad
minibtration not to go further south than
Alexandria for the present. To insure the
safety of the Capital, troops may also be sent
to western Virginia.
Governor Curtin has received a dispatch
from the War DepartMent, requesting him to
provide quarters for a large number of addi
tional troops, and the Regiments now at Camp
Curtin, are to be removed to make room for
a heavy concentration of troops from other
States.
The War Department has informed the Gov
ernors of the States which have ordered out
their quotas of militia under the first procla
mation of the President, that it is desirable
preferably that those who have not been
marched forward shall be mustered in for
three years under - the subsequent proclama
tion.
A Washington correspondent says the Ad
ministration will not yield the control of the
Baltimore and Ohio . ittilrltati until Virginia
yields to the government, under any proposals..
It will defend the Capital. It will open and
keep open all the communications. It will
never consent to the secession of Maryland.
The offlcers,,,,of the First Boston Regiment,
learning that no troops will be accepted unless
under three years' enlistment, waited on Gov.
Andrew, in a body, and tendered their ser
vices and those of the Regiment for that term.
Cambria County also offers a regiment for
three years.

The troops at the Relay House are actively
engaged in strengthening their position by
throwing up breastworks by the western track

down teams from the saw-Mill up the river,
laden with lumber.
Three hundred troops are stationed at the

cumspect respecting her conduct at present.
Should .the secessionists prove troublesome
there, they may be attacked by the Illinois
and MiChigan troops front the east, by lowa,
Wisconsin, Nebt aska and Minnesota from the

west. Our lines are, therefore, well taken,
well fortified, and impossible to break through
or resist.
IN BROWN'S SON.
It is so.it John Brown's son, of _the
same name, is raising an army of fugitive
slaves in Canada, with the intention of ma
king a hostile incursion among the Southern
planters.
Young John Brown is said to be a man of
indomitable energy and will, like his father.
Stimulated by hate and revenge he would prove,
with the means now nt his dihposal, a terrible
and bloody avenger of his tether's name and
memory.
We have some doubt as to the truth of this
rumor, hut, if it be true, we hope the Admin
istration will at once effectually prevent all
such inhuman, piratical expeditions. Ifr3uch
a force is in course of preparation, they will
be sent [,on their mission by a body of men,
who have no sympathy with the Government
in the present quarrel. except so far as their
own peculiar o',Jects are to he attained. The
bolitionists are as strongly tinctured with
disunion as the men of the South, and would
shiver the goverutnent into a thousand frag
ments, if thereby, they could abolish slavery.
Let the John Browns and Garrisnfis and Red
paths with their fugitive negroes' stand book.
This is a white man's war, and white men
alone should fight it out.
Ulglf_lk.N Mit ETING AT FRIDDItICIC, MD
There was a grand Union demonstration at
Frederick on op the 7th inst., when the lion.
Reverdy Johnson, on behalf of the ladies, pre
sented a flag to the Home Baird. During his
address, Mr. Johnson said :
" &peaceable separation is, as our wisest.
statesmen have predicted, impossible, and the
truth of these predictions is about to be man
ifested. But for the resistance tn. its just and
legal authority, the government had given no
cause and had the friends of Constitutional
rights demanded at their posts in Congress,
the power of the government to transgress its
authority could have been effectually thwarted.
The secessionists had desecrated the name of
Calhoun in the support of their horeay ; but
that great man had pronounced the doctrine
both novel and in violation of common sense.
Tho leaders of the rebellion were in fact twin
ated by en unholy lust for official power. This
fact is evidenced in the elevation to place of
all who had desecrated their official positions
by plotting treason. But their efforts to die•
honor a government front which many of those
lenders had borrowed their renown would fail.
They may as well strike at the heavens with
their arms, as against the American Union.—
Defeat was certain to rebellion.
The free States, according to the last census,
have 3,778.000, between the ages of eighteen
and forty-five years.
The .lave Slates have 1,665,000. The se
ceded States, exclusive of Virginia, have only
531,000: And the difference in wealth is pro
portionate to that of men. With such a vast
disparity, the end of the souggle is 'beyond
doubt. For Maryland to encounter such odds
would be to doom herself to desulation and de
struction. liven should the south render aid,
they would he driven back, and our State left
to mourn over her calamity and crime."

to direct that twenty five additional regiments
of infantry and one regiment of cavalry be
called for forthwith, to be mustered into the

the companies are here and'. on their way to

detailed to muster companies iota service at
Pittsburg has been withdrawn, and no more

Pa., Sir : —On the 25th inst., I addressed a
communication expressing,my opinion that the
force at my disposal was inadequate, and sug
gested that twenty six additional regiments he
added to the Pennsylvania contingent. Since
that date other Slates have furnished a num
ber of disciplined troops, well armed and
equipped. sufficient for the present require
ments of the service at the net ional capital, and
it will, therefore, lie inexpedient to nocept the
sorvicbs of more three months volunteers.
The three companies referredle in my 'corn
municht ion of the 28th are required fur imme
diate oervtoe, and oue troop will be on duty
to-morrow.
A call may be made fur an additional force
of volunteers to serve for two years er the
war. but the authority therefor will be provi
ded in time to cause no delay or inconvenience.
The government informs me that no more
three months men will be required, plans hav
ing been adopted to increase the army in a
more efficient manner. I have theref4eito re
quest that my sug g estion in relation io

Legislature to keep a force under a State or
ganization in readiness for" State defence, and
to respond to a call from the

so prudent a proposition will meet with a
ready affirmative response from a co ordinate
branch of the State Government ; and in that
case any (*Oren itbos3 . .thnt . called for by the

WAR DEPARTMENT,

have the honor to reply.
let: That the quota of militia from Pennsyl

President has authorized the raising of twen
ty five regiments of volunteers, to serve for
three years, or during the war. Under this
call one or two additional regiments, on the
condition stated, will be accepted from Penn

LAUGUING MAY

With blushing pride the queenly rose cuntesseth

The Illy pole doth how and whisper it
Unto the violets meek,
Which they do sweetly breathe
To the care sing winds,
And earth's outbid Yokes softly echo,
How beautiful to May."
Poets are the most arrant story-tellers in
the world; they sing of the buds and blos

May," as if they really expected people to'be
love them. If this is May. she has certainly
commenced her reign in good earnest'. Tha
sun hasn't "out up many shines" for some
days, and the "caressing wintis"• are "no
great shakes." Every thing has a sub toed.
sodden look, seemingly enjoying the "luxury
of woe:" the liquid globules chase each other
d iy by day, rolling ovt every thing, because
they're so round, and the 'cry is still they
come." The flowers look 'Mutinous. the Heart's
ease is the picture of discontent, the Lily's
cup is brimming, and the Violet's blue eyes
are bathed in tears. Every little inequality
in the street or pavement is converted into a
temporary mirror, where young-folks can play
Narcissus' to their heart's Content ; at the risk
of "catching their death o' cold ;" and sires
see wrinkles multiplied and forms inclined
from the perpendicular. Every spout, gutter,
and guile) , that's able to go, is running; and
"from the house-eaves, come eaves-droppers"
continually. Lot the poets in future discard

FLACI RAISEN9 was Out good for
tune to witness the raising of the Atifinican
flag on Wednesday morning, on an occasion of
more than ordinary interest. The pupils in
the four female schools, held in the building
formerly known as the Old - College, under the
charge of Mrs. Adair, Mies Postlethwaite,
Miss Bectem, and Miss Phillips,. contributed
sufficient. amount ,to Proonte a handsome
flag; and ten o'clock of Wednesday. was the
time, fixed for elevating it to its position. At
the appointed hour. the School Directors and
large number of ladies and gentlemen attend
ed to witness the ceremony, the little girls
with their teachers being arranged in the yard
fronting the building. as the banner was run'
up to the top of the thig-staff, the pupils under
the direction of their music teacher Wm. R.
Linn, sang, in full chorus, the ',,lslational an
hern of "The Star Spangled Baimer." Brief
and appropriate addresses were, Made by Rev.
Messrs. Fry, Chenowith. Phillips, Clere, and
Ross, who closed with a fervent prayer; the
children thou sang - God save America," and
closed the exercises with three hearty cheers
for the fidg 'of the Union.
It was beautifully impressive to see this
hand of little girls as'they gazed with pride
and exultation on the flag they had raised; to
hear their voices joined in a song of welcome,
as its bright folds were flung to the breeze,
and to know that their little hearts were throb
bing with an undefined feeling of sympathy
for the great cause which has stirred the deep
fount of patriotism among the people. When,
in the providence of God, these children shall
have arrived at an ageltil:y to appreciate the
ble,sings of our free institutions, may they find
their flag, without a stripe erased' or, a star
dimmed, still fib .ting, the honored emblem of
an undivided Union.
THE NORTHIIIEN.
A writer in a public journal some years
ago expressed the great want of the people
on this subject. in truthful and eloquent lan
‘guage. "There is a nation," said the wri
ter, "even now extant, possessing as brave a
history as that of the. Romans, as poetic as
that of the Greeks; a nation that has con
trolled the world's history in many things, and
at many tires, and whose achievements in
war and i letters are worthy the most hero.
is tyre of,Rome. and the most finished period
of Greece; a nation whose philosophy outran
theitiige;-And-anticipated _results that. Jut ve
been occurring ever since" In these remarks
he referred to the Northmen, the dwellers of
Scandinavias, who lived as heroes, lords and
conquerors, whO. sailing out of the 'ice and
desolation in which they were born and our
hired, conquered England, Scotland, and
Ireland, ravaged Brittany and Normandy,
discovered and colonized Iceland and Green
land ; crossed the Atlantic in their crazy
barques, and discovered America long before
Columbus existed. Is there not some one,
the writer asked, who will write us a history
of Seandanavias?
Prof. Sinding, a native of Denmark, has
responded to this call, and has furnished the
public with art excellent work on this inter
esting subject, OT upwards of four hundre 1
pa g es.
The Professor has been about three
years in this &twit ry, and in \ that short period
acquired sufficient Ithowledgc of the English
language to enaable hint to'write the work
in our own tongue; and he has performed
his task with surprising ability. A critic
may detect occasionally the idiom of the for
eigner, but he will be surprised to find so lit
tle to complain of in that respect. The
Work shows thattihe Author is a man of letters
and it displays industrious research. That
part of it which relates 'to the religious and
political institutions of the Northmen, will lie
interesting to all nations, while the portion
which treats of the, discovery of America by
the Northmen, low. before Columbus came
into the world, will have a peculiar value in
this country.
The accomplished author differs from many
other foreigners who have visited this country.
He is modest, unassuming, refined, but easy,
in his manners, and very agreeable and inter
esting in conversation. He mingles with the
masses, and makes himself well acquainted
with t heir habits . and feelings. li he should
write a work on this country, he will know
how to do justice to our people and their in
stitutions
•
The above notice which we take from the
Phila. North Americas, was written by Judge
Ellis Lewis, whose endorsement of the work
offers a sure guarantee of its value; and in in
troducing it to our readers, we take occasion
to say, that Prof. Sinding, is now in Carlisle,
where lie proposes to remain for sonic time,
so that those who desire copies of the work,
can be supplied from the fourth edition which
is now in. . •
