WAR NEWS.
The war news of the week is unimportant,
if we except the successful attack upon the
batteries at Port Hudson, on the Mississippi,
which our vessels have succeeded in passing.
A few weeks of the•present weather will set
all bur armies in motion, and then look out.
Stir The Volunteer talks of " striking down
wounded union soldiers." Probably the
same paper etin.inform us who it was that
"struck down" young KAUFFM AN, of South
Middleton, a young man who lost his right
leg in the service of his country. The cop•
perheads refused him the paltry office of tax
collector. What a brave party, and what a
manly acui_glorious —victory—aver _maimed_
heroism and loyalty !
THE PEACE PeuTT.—Thet•e never was a war
in which there was not a Peace party. Some
men want peace on any terms. Some want
to aid the enemy in their designs, and others
are discouraged about success. In the Rev
olution and in 1812 15, there were large Peace
parties. But, the Peace party of the Revolu•
lion terminated in an extensive emigration to
Nova Scotia and England. The Peace party
of 181215, culminated in the Hartford Con
vention, and the subsequent exits of all Its
leaders from public trust and confidence.' If
the present Peace party carry out its designs,
the people will give them reward equally
striking and instructive.
The Northern traitors are more brutal than
the Southern traitors ; for the latter. probab
ly believed that in the event of a war between
the two sections of the country, they could
' have "a United South," but VALLANDiCIEWI
and hie fellows did not expect to have a United
North, if they can excite an insurrection here
against the Administration. They well knew
that through the populous and prosperous
farming regions and cities of the North, civil
war would rage in its "direst horrors. Yet

It will be seen that although a majority of
Democrats were eleoted to council this year,
a majority of the new incumbents, are known
as Republionns. The causes which produced
this state of affairs form a romantic little tale,
the gist of which we will endeavor to give as
succinctly as possible.
The council of 1861 appointed Wm. GIDD, a
good Demoorat, collector of the borough taxes
PETER SrAna, another Democrat, went his
security. When the time came for Gins to
account for and pay over the tax he had col-,
leoted, he was found to be behind about Three
Hundred Dollars, which amount Mr. S. had
to pay. When this loss fell upon him, the
members of council from the east ward, (who
were re elected with the addition of Mr.
PENR(ME,) affected an earnest sympathy for
him in his pecuniary loss. They also assured
him repeatedly, and with the most solemn
pledges, that he himself, on the accession of
the next council, which was expected to have
a preponderance of Democrats in it, should
be appointed collector, that he might make up
the sum of which he had been mulcted by this
Democratic defaulter. Thus matters stood
when the preliminary caucus of the east ward
councilmen was held for the purpose of select
ing borough officers for the present year.
On Wednesday of last week this mucus met,
and Mr. SPAHa reminded the gentlemen of
their pledges to him, and notified them that
he expected their faithful fulfilment. Now
for the denoument. These men who had so
religiously pledged their faith to Mr. SPAHR,
now coolly - fell hini that they do not mean.
to abide by it, and give for their reason
"that the discharged soldier.' in the borough re
presented about prig VOW, which -the Demoera
„
lie party must :1 i?etiri, and that the only way to
do this, was to appoint one or two of them to
office. That personally they did not care a
straw for these cripples, and that they would
make inefficient officers, but the votes of these
discharged soldiers must be had.”
Mr. S. becoming indignant at this treat
ment, notified the CAUCUS that if they persist
ed in it, he would leave them, - and join the
opposition. Then commenced the pettifog
ging and juggling which was to worry him
into support of. the regular caucus nomina
tions; but which, after being carried on all
day on Wednesday, most signally failed, and
ended in Mr S. leaving in disgust at their
trickery, which was every minute becoming
more palpable. He then proposed to the op
position members to coalesce with them.
which propositioh they accepted, and the re
sult is the very excellent appointments which
are announced at the head of this article.
This is about the whole story, if we except
the unearthly wail and hiss'of the scotched
copperheads. According to the ex chairman
of the Democratic committee, who was also
a prominent candidate for one of the borough
offoes, the
_party ( - Democratis e in the east
ward is disintegrated and disorganized," and
we hare no doubt,,will soon go to general
smash.
As to the assertions of the copperhead organ
that the "Republicans struck down, maimed
and wounded Union soldiers," they are simply
wicked, inexcwible lien. The most prominent
of the soldier-candidates reoeivedan appoint
merit, attd the other did not only because i
was a physical impossibility for him to per
fornethe duties tlierepf. The otherwise inex
plivable sympathy of the ,copperheads for the
soldiers, is explained by the avowal of the De
mocratic, councilmen that though they cared
nothing for the soldiers. they "must have
their votes."
The moral of the whole story is a very pal
pable one. viz ; That duplicity, demagogue
ism and broken faith will always meet their
own reward in the utter discoMfituro of those
engaged therein.
ParOn Saturday evening last, the Dam
oratic club was convened to express the
indignation of that august body at the " apos
tacy" of its President. The club was ad
dressed by one of our Democratic lawyers,
who introduced some resolutions, denounc
ing the action of its President in the recent
council proceedings.- These.resolves, recom
mending the summary expulsion and severe
condemnation of itsipresiding officer, were
passed by a unanimous vote and ordered
to be printed in the Democratic papers
of the borough. Instead, however of com
plying with this orde• of the club, the
ynteer, and the . Democrat, say to their read
ers that the resolutions are " defamatory
and libellous i" • and that they , would be 1 a
ble to a criminal prosecution if they gave
them pitblicity. Now eewouldlike to know ,

of the author of theresolutions would seem
to forbid•tliaa idea) or whether the fear of

Slavery at the North or Freedom
at the South. -
,As the War goecon, and the temper and de
signs of the leaders' of the iebellion are made
plain, It becomes certain that the cattett,which
the Government of the Unlen end the people
°Me Free States are upholding, involves not
only the defence of the Union and the exist
ence of popular government, but, far more
than this, the very existence of free institu
tions in America. The question of the em
ancipation of the slaves at the South is less
important than that of the enslavement of the
free laborers of the North ; and it is only by
giving liberty to the blacks that the freedom
of the whites can be secured. For nib—profit
able iniquity of slavery has so corrupted the
masters who form the ruling oligarchy of the
South, that, no longer content with owning
slaves of another race, they desire, and pro.
claim there desire with audacious frankness,
to bring the white laborers of their own, race
under the yoke of servitude. Let the rebel
lion succeed, let a compromise be patched up
by Southern traitors and their Northern allies,
and the poor "white trash" If the Southern
States,shall be brought under the lash of the'
overseer's whip, while the "medians" of the
North, the honest, intelligent, free laborers of
the Freo States will learn that they have no
political rights, and on equality with the lords
of the soil.
Or if, giving up the idea of compromise
the rebels succeed in their enterprise of
wresting from the Federal authority the
Southern half of these United States, there is
an end of the free government in the region
they will ha‘re acquired, and of its peaceful
enjoyment in that from which they have sep.
arated. They will neither allow their own
people la be free, nor allow us to be • free in
peace. They will have established an empire
tentacled, as they boast, on'slavery, and since
the maxim which they have laid down as the
basis of their institutions is, that "capital
ehould own labor," that is to say "the labor•
ere"—in other words, that the rich should 'own
the poor— the result will be a despotism which
will be no respecter of persons on account of
oomplexitm, but will rellube to one level of
diefranohisement and servitude -all who are
not of the sleveholding class.
There is no exaggeration in this language.
"Slavery ie the natural and normal conditon
of the laboring man, white or black' said a
paper of South Carolina, in 1856. "Slavery
black or white," said George Fitzhugh of
Virginia, echoing the words, •'Slavery black
or white is right necessary." The Richmond
Enquirer enlarges on the theme. "Until re
cently," it says, "The apologists for slavery
Look half-way grounds. They confined • the
defence of slavery to negro slavery, tberby
giving up the slavery principleand admitting
other forme of slavery to be wrong. * * *
The South now maintains that slavery is right.
natural and neeeesary. While it is far more
obvious that negroes be slaves than
whites,—for they alsp only fit to labor, not to
direct,—yet the principle of slavery is itself
right, and does not depend on difference of
complexion."
Nor are these mere hasty expressions of il
considered opinions. They are the deliberate
conclusion from carefully formed theories.—
All the powers of ingenious minds have been
perieriedimd, degroded to the shameful task
of arraying false but specious arguments for
the equality and rights of man. "The real
contest," said Mr. L. W. Sprott of South
Carolina, in 1861. 'The real contest is be
tween two forms of society which have been
established, one at the North, the other at the
South,' "the one embodying the prin
ciple that equality is the right of man."
"this," says Mr. Sprott, '•expands into dem
ocracy," and this Is the power that exists at
the North; "the other embodying the princi
ple that it is not the right of man, but of equ
als only," and this is the form existing at the
South, which, he says, "has taken on itself
the form of a social aristocracy."
In an essay written by J. Quitman Moore o
Mississippi, and pubLiqued itt De Dow's Re
view in 1881, the authoi-says: "Those pesti
lent and pernicious dogmas, "The grantee
good of the greatest number," "The majority
shall rule," are in their practical application
the fruitful source of disorders never to be qui
eted, revolutions tho most radical and Bangui
nary; philosophies the most false, and pas
sions the most wild, destructive and ungov-
ernablo." Such are the doctrines avowed
by the Southern loaders; and with such
doctrines, the existence not only of free in
elitutions but of, personal freedom is incom
patible. "We have got to bating everything
with the prefix free" is the last. declaration
of the South Side Democrat of Virginia.
And how obeli free men anower such words
as these, cording, from the enemies of their
oountry, and of civilization P Shall it not be
with a remolved, persistent, indomitable de-
termination to destroy the root of such doo
trines, and to establish free institutions so
firmly iu all the United 'States that those who
believe not ln , them shall be eileoced .forever?
How shall the free and independent laborer
of the North, the =amnia sneered at as a
mndeltl=how - shall - he - meet the threats and
taunts of those who declare that "capital
should own labor, and . that white . slavery is
justifiable? If he have the heart of a man it
will be With getterous!defiencti; and he will
give his labor, hie moony, his (AUTO, his , life'
if need be, to prove his fidelity to that freedom
which embodied in , the institutions of his
ciountry, liha given him opportnol4 - to -be
what he ie.
The light now is between popular liberty,—
liberty_forpl4 - white or black,---and-oommou
elavory—stuvery for all, white or - block; The
poorest than, in the North, every honest labor•
er everywhere, has a stake in the contest, and

Voices from the Army.
The army iu the West has lately made
one or two very emphatic appeals against the
efforts of the rebel sympathizers in the
Northwest, For instance, Geueral Rose
crans, replying to a vote of thanks from the
Legislature of Ohio, speaks as follows :
'Voluntary exiles from borne and friends,
for the defence and safety of all, we long for
the time when gentle peace shall again
spread her wings over our land ; but we
know no such blessing is possible while the
unjust and arbitr ,ry power of the rebel lead
ers confronts and threatens us. Crafty as
the fox, cruel as the tiger, they cried 'no
coereiou,' while preparing to strike us.
Bully-like, they proposed to fight us, because
they said they could whip five to one; and
now, when driven back, they whine out 'no
invasion,' and promise us of the West per
mission to navigate the Mississippi, if we
will be 'good boys,' and do as they bid. us.
"Whenever they have the power, they
drive before them into their ranks the South
ern people, and they would also drive us.
Trust them not. Were they able, they would
invade and destroy us without mercy. Ab
solutely assured of these things, I am ama- .
zed that any one could think of 'peace on
any terms.' He who entertains the senti
ment is fit only to be a slave; he who utters
it at this time is, moreover, a traitor to his
country, who closer es the scorn and con
tempt of all honorable men. When the
power of the unscrupulous rebel leaders is
removed, and the pe.•ple are tree to consider
and act for their own interests, which are
comm,c with ours under this kovernrnent,
there IN ill be no great difficulty in frajerui•
zatiou."
General Hovey, of Indiana, and fonr In
diana colonels, now at Helena, Arkansas,
have - Publiibed an'appeal "to the Prenuoctaey
of Indiana," in vrlicch they come to the point
as follows :. _
"We see. with deep solitule a• d regret,
that there is an undercurrent. in Indiana,
tending toward a coalition of the Northwest
With the South, against the Eastern States.
Be not deceived. Pause, for the love you
bear to your country, and reflect. This
movement is only a rebel scheme in disguise.
that would involve you, alike with themsel
ves, in the crime of vett-Ilion, and bring to

tending to the dismemberment of our Gov
ernment.
"1n this, dark hour of our country's trill,"
—there is, but' one road to success al peace,
and that is, to be as firmly united for our
Government, as the rebels are against it.
Small differences of opinion amount to no
thing
in this grand struggle for a nation's
existence. Do not place even one straw in
the way, and remember that every word you

MR EDITOR :—A pleasant incident occurred
on the 24th of March at the Gimp , of-the 130
Regt . P. V near Falmouth Virginia.
After Dress Parade the Regiment having
been formed, double column closed-in mass, a
handsome and costly sword and sash, pur-
chased by the officers and men, was present
ed to Lieut. Col LEE who had command of
the Regiment for Borne weeks after the unfor
tunate battle of Fredericksburg—Colonel
MAisn then being at York Pa., suffering from
a severe wound received at Antietam.
. The sword was presented by the gallant
Capt SHARP. of Co., E who made the follow
ing appropriate remarks
"CoLonm.:—Allow me, in behalf of the
One Hundred and Thirtieth, to present to you
this beautiful sword, as a testimonial of the
high appreciation in which we hold your
many admirable qualities.
The soldier's life is a hard one. and in many
respects, a rude one. but nothing else is so
well calculated to cherish the noblest and the
best _sem rim - elms of - home n - not - orti - T eta that
Officer or that Private who does his duty may
always rest assured that, in the long run, he
•will he rewarded by the love and gratitude of
his fellow soldier.
You, Sir, were among the Tonne:it of us in
the conflict, at Antietam, and at Fredericks
burg, and let me express the hope that here
after, in the battle's gleaming, this bright
sword may not only defend you from harm,
but still again find you with the foremost in
the path to glory and to victory."
To which Col. LEE responded :
"Officers and men of the One Hundred and
Thirtieth ; —ln accepting this beautiful gift
from your hands, I am too conscious that I
have done nothing to merit so high a mark of
your esteem and generosity—nevertheless I
receive it with a deep feeling of gratitude and
pride, and 'confidently trust that no apt of
mine shall ever diShotior it, or reflect a shad.
ow of discredit upon this noble, well•tried and
heroic Regiment.
Allow me then to offer you my sincere
thanks, not only for this act of yotir gener
osity, which I prize, above all price, but for
your nnifortn • kindness and indulgence since
I have been with you."
Three cheers having been given respective
ly for Lieut. Col. Lea, COL MAIIII, and Maj.
