OrrizmNs : Irl tirnes ,- of war

surrendered or postponed to the public
emergencies. During the lievolutionary
war there was no party against Washing
ton but the Tories or the Traitors. Du
ing the war of 1812, the eciemies of the
Administration of Mr. Madison soon be
came as infamous as the foreign invaders
themselver. The war with Mexico was
waged, as results have proved, by slave
holding statesmen, in order that one State
mere might be added to the number they
have so lately forced into treason ; yet
the public man who opposed it soon be
came unpopular, and its victorious gene
ral was nominated for the Presidency by
the very party that dissented from the
policy which resulted in the war. These
are the eloquent teachings of the past.
We are now in a death struggle with the
most powerful foe to human liberty on
earth. This enemy is strengthened by
slavery in America, and sustained by the
monarchies of the Old World. The issue
is clearly made—the contending parties
openly arrayed against each other. Theft;
is not a nation, an individual, or an idea
opposed to humuu fre,edoin that is not en
listed against this Government and in fa
vor of' the rebellion. We are ourselves'
our only friends. Within ourselves is
our only hope. We , Call h ave
in
no sympa
thy from any other Power n the world—
no sympathy that is sincere and effectual.
The State Central Committee, appointed
by the Union State Convention, composed
of the loyal men of Pennsylvania, who
met to consider what was proper to be
done in this crisis, have a simple duty to
perform in this their first, address. Th e y
have only to ask whether the examples of
the two wars with Great Biitain, and the
admonitions ol' the war with Mexico, shall
be recollected or rejected in this gloomy
hour, and whether the American . - people
will cordially support the Government in
Iputting down the rebellion. -
The State Central Committee would
impress upon the people of Pennsylvania
that the one great subject for them to
consider is the danger to the Republic.
'There is no prejudice or opinion that
should not be postponed, and if necessa
ry; sacrificed, to avert this common peril.
The Convention from which the coinmit
tee derived its authority acted in this
spirit, And it now your duty to come
forward and sustain the (candidates that
Convention placed in nomination. We
make this appeal to all loyal men. They
only are loyal who recognize this war as
ono waged for our national existence—
who give an ardent and unquestioning
support to the Administration—who sus
tains all the measures of Congress for the
maintenance of the war-making power—
who Bee in thirSout.4ern Confederacy, and
those who are ,in alliance with it, the
'enemies of Civilization - and liberty—and
who do nothing to weaken the bands of
the Ikieoutive. They are not merely dis
loyal who take arms in their hands, and
combine themselves intman army. He is
a rebel who abjures 'his allegiance and be
comes an.enemy to his flag; but he is a
traitor, who, while enjoying the protec
tion of the Government, and ostensibly
observing blifipledge of allegiance, con
-trives,to brin g dishonor and defeat upon
his country. These rebels: and these trai
tors we are called upon to • meet. .We

of the war. Our opponents have made
them the substance of calumny and mis
t representation. For answer, we appeal to
to the living history familiar to all men.
We need not remind the people that at
the basis of the Southern rebellion there
exists a hatred of Northern men and Nor
then institutions—of our social, political
and revenue systea.s. This has inspired
their leaders during two generations.
,Wedded to an institution which has 'de
moralized them in demoralizing their la
bor, and cultivating the earth by an en
slaved race of men, they have made their
slaves the source of their political power,
and have ruled the nation with the pro
ducts of slave labor. The happy hours of
our national progress have fur years been
embittered by their insolene.t. All kgis
lation that looks to the prosperity of Ihe
Northern Sates and protection to their
industry has been opposed and defeated
by them. With the growth of Northern
strength, as the result of free institutions
and free toil ; came the possession of po
litical poVier and the gradual resistance
to the encroachments of slavery. Nor
need we remind the people of the outra
ges that followed the efforts of the slave
holders to recover their unholy and des
potic dominion. The outrages upon Kan
; the studied insults to Northern
Seeators and Ilepresentatives; the cease
less abuse of the Northern people, and the
gradual concentration of the military and
naval power in the hands of the traitors,
l ad contemplated the, restoration of their
114.sec:whiney, and enabled them to inaugu
rate the treason which culminated in war.
Strengthened by a wicked A d i
tom, and sustained by timid and tretkeher
()us public men in the free States, they
were permitted to organize an arnnred re
sistance, and•to make fearful advances,
before the Government could strike a
blow in its own defence.
The election' of Mr Lineoln to the
Presidency. so fortunate fur the country,
and so fruitful of saving consequences to
the whole people, baffled the immediate
purposes of the conspirators
The adversaries of Mr. Lincoln's AA
ministration are in nearly every case the
adversaries of the Government. They at.
tack the one to weaken
.the, other. We
recognize in the Executive the embodi
ment of that authority tvhiula can alone
destroy the rebellion, and rescue the Re

ed, there can be neither runty among. the,

theirpreferoticos and systems, content to•
defel'until the day of peace the revival ef
disputes which can only be repeated now
to the injury of the common cause.
Let the people decide whether that
interest is deserving of confiden c e which,
in the midst of war, refuses to abandon
the prejudices of party strife, and in the
midst of national peril devotes itself 'to
the work of dividing the people,
The opponents of 'the we aro more
anxious to prove their !aiad ton party
than• to the public enemy/ They insist
that the " demon Abolitidrk" is the most
dangerous foe of the public peace. Wo
can see but one great criminal—but one
great enemy of the Republic--,and he is
now in anus against our countrymen and
brothers. .Tu defeat him at once and for
ever is our first and most imperative duty.
The adversaries of the war insist that
they co. tend for the Union as it was, and
the Constitution as it is. We, too, are
for the Union as it was ; but not for the
return of the armed associates of the
sympathizers :with treason to the places
they so long occupied and so basely deser
ted. Arid while we renew our fealty to
the Constitution as it is, we also insist
upon the addition of that duty which the
opponents of the war so steadily ignore,
viz : " The enfcrcement of the laws,"
whether these laws are for the confisca
tion of all rebel property, the emancipa
tion of all slaves who aid to defend the
flag of the Union, or the punishment of
the reckless partisans in the adhering
States, who aid and comfort the rebel ene
my, demoralize the people, and paralyze
the arm of the Executive.
If, in a word, we'have sympathy to be
stow it is not for the murderers of our
country's liberties, but furghe defenders
of those liberties. The gallant soldier
teaches us by his example to persevere in
devotion to our country. Ile offers his
life to the Republic with uncomplaining
spirit, reposes full=confidence in his su
periors, sustains the Government of the
United States, and sees but one antagonist
before him—the rebel who strikes at his
.own heart and at the Union of these States.
We should be unworthy of the advantages
of peace and home if we did not strive to
imitate at the ballot-box an example so
fretily set before >is by our fellow citizens
ou the battle field.
In the fulfilment of these grave duties,
we invoke to the standard Of our country
men of every class and opinion. We
scorn the baseness that invokes party hate
or popular prejudice. When we behold
The adopted and the native citizen, the
Democrat and, the Republican fighting
side by side in the army, we arc inspired

- -
Loyal men of Pennsylvania, it is for
you to determine between the friends of
the government and the war, and the op
ponents of both. It is for:you to declare
for the sympathizers with freedom or the
sympathizers with slavery and• the rebel
lion. It is for you to decside whether you
will strengthen Abraham_ Lincoln or Jef
ferson Davis. It is for you to say wheat.,
or the traitors shilllbecrushed•or whether

complete the parallel, and to show how
sincerely they love the traitors, oven as
they pretend to desp'se the treason, they
see our brave men perishing on 11mb:tittle
field and in hospitals, from the disease of
the swamps and the bullets of the :fo'e,

they may be relieved; and; while prating
of a negro exodus into the free States, to

The Dying Mother
The following pathetic and beautiful
:ketch is - related - by - " Ruth - Hall," in the
Knickerbocker Magazine:
" The pain -wearied mother of six small
children—the oldest ten, the youngest
barely a year old—lay on the lowly pallet
whore she chad counted the long, long
hours in suffering, over since the birth of
her last pet, Barney. The cabin was

Only within the last two weeks, with his
little daughter, ~rho drudged incessantly
each day, feeding and tending the other
children, still too young to share her la

ful storm moaned and wept around the
hut, and the rain lashed the thatched
roof and ono window with tetritie vio-
knee. It was Peggy's turn to watch,
and she sat by the remains of the - peat fire
frightened and very sorrowful, when her
mother, with the sweet, low voice she
loved well, called her to her side.
"I am going at last, darlint," said she,
kissed the poor little tear•dremehed face

again ; I must meet him in Heaven. See

"Oh, inoilier ! let 1110, call father anti

LAUGHTER
It is an old proverb that laughter is
akin to tears ; and, accordinm t‘ to Doctor
Lempriere, the one seeins to have grown
very -naturally out - of - the other. - When
Mumus was born he filled Jill Olympus
with his lusty cries ; all the goddesses
hastened to appease the terrible Child
and Jupiter, who could not look without
inextinguithable laughter at his last
- creature—Man—at once dedicated to hiw
the weeping clown.
Laughter draws backward the corners
of the mouth, draws up the upper lip—
especially young women who have pretty
teeth—wririkles the checks, smooths the
brow, causes the eyes to sparkle, and
draws down the corners of the eye-brows,
while the cheeks swell so that, in those
fat persons who tire given to laughter, one
scarce sees the eyes. At the same time
the veins of the neck swell, and the blood
rushes with pleasant violence to the head,
the heart, and the lungs. Those are the
phenomena of...laughter, which, if unduly
increased, ate capable of endangering life.
It is curious that we road only among the
aneicntA and the French of people laugh
ing themselves to death. We Americans
have either no jokes, or a poorer appreci
ation of wit. Zeuxis is said to have died
of laughing at a painting of an old wom
an, his own handiwork. Philemon ex
pired of a donkey who so contentdly ate
the philosopher's figs, that with his last
articulate breath, lie sot out a glass of
wine to the beast, who drank it with
quid enjoyment, and thus proved him
self,Vseems to me, not such a donkey
after all. Pomponious Mela has a story
au blessed island in which were two
springs, at one of which mortals could
imbibe till they laughed themselves to
death, when u swallow of the other re
stored them to life again.
In an essay in the Guardian, laughing
is defined to be an agreeable. kitfd'of
convulsion, a symptom ofinward satisfac
tion ; and those who praotiee it are divi•
ded into ditnplers, .laughers,
grinners c liorse laughersi'and snecrers.'—
This is to,lay'down a science of laughing,
for which - 411er° might ho need if Gener
al McClellan or General Beauregard
sh - oUldtake up the idea of oh 13ulow,
who proposed to form troops, in the feu
of the enemy, in line of battle, and order
them to advance with their aruis at a
shoulder and salute the Joe with ringing
bursts of laughter. lie sure,/ said Bu.
low that your opponents, surprised and
dismayed at thiS astonishing salute, would
turn about and rug off.' This Plan, per
haps, would not do so well while the
present long-range artillery is'used ; hitt
as nothing is Vie absurd to succeed once,
it is related asiCmatter,of fact that the
Mumolukes once turned tail from an as

fercutly from mony Childion'froutfitimea,
and some writers even profess to detect
national peculiarities in the laugh ; as
for instance, say tte - y . , the Fren - chtnirn
laughs with his teeth, like the apes.—
The Abbe Dainasceni thought he had dis
covered, in the various &laudations of
laughter, a sure guide to the tempera
ments of the laughers. Thus he said Ha
ha ha belonged to a choleric man, He he
lee to the phlegmatic ' Hi hi hi to the mel
ancholie, and Ho 1w ho to the sanguine.
It is true that men laugh commonly in
A and 0, and women in _Band 1, and it
is singular that with all people, even the
cockneys, the aspirate, 11, precedes the
vowel.
The old theologians held laughter to
be ono of the consequences of the first
sin, and believed that Adam did not
laugh till ho was driven out of Paradise.
Great men .have often fancied it a part
of greatness to refrain from hilarity.—
Philip IV. of Spain is said to have laugh
ed outright but once in his life, when his
bride, Anne of Austria, wept at hearing
that the Queens of Spain had no feet.—
She took with German literalness an old
pin) of over-wrought Spanish courtesy.
As she was journeying toward Spain some
German nuns wet her, and desired to
present sonic stockings of their own knit
ting. The worthy princess was about to
accept the gift when a Spanish, grandee
of her suite interlitred, with the remark
that it would be against etiquette, as the
Queens of Spain were not supposed to
have any use for stockings ! whereat the
princess began to weep—understanding,
poor lady, that on her arrival in Kadrid
her feet would be cut off. Lord Ghe . stei.-
field said : ' Nobody bus seen me laugh
since I have come to use my reason ;'
and Gongrevc wakes his Lord Froth, in
the Double Dealer say, When I laugh I
always laugh alone!,
Nevertheless, the Ainger 'Hobert gave
lessons in laug,hter - in Paris and London
in 1605, and with considerable success- -
so far as filling his own purse went lie
held that men and women could not
laugh ' decently and systeMatioally' with
out proper training; and said that a per
son who could laugh in but one tone
seemed to him like one who could say
only oui and non ; but that a trained
laughter could express many things with
out words, and would often thus be spared
the utterance of unpleasant words.'
Don't Forgot Mo
flow often do we hear the words - "Dtml
forget me," when separating from our
friends. glow often they conic to . our ears
in every variety of tone—from the light
impulsive school girl's to the deep tremu
lous aces rats of those who love us us true
and faithful hearts can love. " Don't
forget me," lisps the rosy checked cherub,
scarcely conscious of the import of words.
" Don t forget me," says the aged man,
whose hair is white with the frosts of
many winters. All wish to be remember
ed. All Wish some little nooky of the
heart preserved for their words and ima
ges. But are they all forgotten ? Ask
the lonely being resting his weary head
upvi his hands and listening to the wild
requiem of the wailing winds. While the
thick shades of approaching darkness
fold their wings around him—ask him if
those he once loved—those who once cast
sunshine in his path of life—are no lon
ger remembered through the lone. lapse of
time which has intervened ? 11 the day
of separation and those from whom he
separated are now mouldering beneath the
dust of later scenes and trials ? Ask him
if the sylph-like form which stood by his
side, and the sweet blue eye which sought
his with tears of sorrow, are now no lon
ger remembered 1 Ask him if the half
whispered request, " Don't Ibrget me,"
is unheeded 1 Ask him, and he will tell
you that friends of former days are still
embalmed by memory's magic power, and
their images are still within his heart;
that the sylph-like thrill and soft blue oyes
have always in famey remained the same ,
arid that the last request is whispered in
his car. by every passing breeze. Oh !
there is no fount on earth more pure,
more sacred, than the fountain of Memo

I was spending the night in a hotel in

,Arter breakfast I cams
into the sitting-room, when I met a plea
sant, chatty, good-humored traveller, who
like myself was waiting for the morning
train from Galena, We conversed freely
and pleasantly on Several topics, until
seeing two young ladies met and kissed
each other in the street, • the enversation
turned on kissink, just about the timo the was approaching. "Come" said ho„
takingly his carpet bag, "Bince we ars
on so sweet a subject, let us have, a prtio

my heart failed somewhat as I saw his

of the ladies, and you stand by the ono
you think the handsomest, and 1.11 come
in from behind and kiss her." I had
hardly sttepped inside the car when I saw'
at thu first glance ono of the lovliiest
looking women my eye ever fell on. A
beautiful blonde, with auburn hair, ant(
a bright sunny-face full of love and.
sweetness, and as radiant and glowing as
the morning. Any further search was
totally unnecessary. I immediately -took
my stand In the aisle of the. ear by her
side. She was looking out of the window
earnestly, as if expecting some ono. The
back door of the car opened, and in'
stepped my hotel friend. 1 pointed my

course, a shrink of terror and then a rote.
generally, and a knock-down; but aston
ishment succeeded astonishment when I
saw her return the kisses with

interest.
Quick ns a flash he turned to m and
said, 'Now sir, it is your turn ;"-pointing
to a hideously ugly, old woman who sat
-in the seat - behind. "Oh, you must ex

we all burst into a general laughter as he
said. "Thi, is my wife ! I have been
waiting here for her. I knew that was

his wife, who looked ten-fold sweeter as
she heard it.
Before we reached - Chicauo.-we
changed cards, and I discovered that my ge

had frequently heard. Whenever Igo
to Chicago, I always go lo hear him, and
a heartier, more natural, and more elo-

hearing once, " My life has been a fail

my relatives to quarrel over when I aM
gone, and what is there in that tlionght,
to cheer me now ? There is but one

such, who are now, useful and honored
men, both in church and state, whom I
aided and encouraged in obtaining an
education. They will do some good in
the world if I did not." The tears ran,
down his cheeks as he thus spoke, and
he turned himself in his bed and gently
sunk into_the•arms of death. We shall
never.forget—that scene. It daguerree
