TM : , What did the extraordinary gathering of the oopricrhead magnates of the county in Carlisle, on Friday last mean ? Was it a sympathizing—Vallandigham demonstration, or were they organizing more lodges of gold en circle knights. The Berks county breth ren were fin ;11y commiteil this week. (Proba bly there were means to be raised for their succor. Infamous Libelling The American Volunteer we belie', e is en titled to the enviable distinction of being .more apt in coining, and more industrious in circulating vile, infamous libels upon many oC our leading statesmen, both living and dead, than any journal in the State—if we except its text-book—the Harrisburg Patriot (7) Not content with misrepresent ing and maligning the characters and posi tier s of the living, that paper must needs mainufacture entirely new and reproduce old and long since exploded slanders on the memory of our most illustrious dead. These remarks are occasioned in this in stance. by the reiteration in this week's Vol unteer of the following paragraph, reprell ted as having been uttered Ivy u DANIEL EIIST lz " If these Infernal jitnaties and Abolition ists ever gel Mc power in their have s, they will override the Constitution, set the Su preme Court at defiance, change and make laws to suit themselves, lay violent hands on those who differ with them in opinion, or dare question their fidelity, awl finally b an k r upt the country and deluge it with blood.--. When the rota/deer, in coin mon with the most coppery of its cotemporaries,.publisbed this basiard effusion.some time ago, it Was promptly branded as a malignant fabrica tion, calculated to do infinite injustice to the memory of the.greatr WEBSTER, and its au thors were dared to fhe proof. Not one of them ever attempted to substantiate it, and it now remains for the Volunteer to point to the speech which contni ns this sentence or stand convicted of twice-repeated falsehood. The Consistency of Democracy Ex Preaideni Pinnca's opinion of Slavery liu had only to say now what he had always said, that he regarded slavery as tutu of the greatest moral and•soelal evils —a curse upon the whole country, and this he believed to he the sentiment of all Inca of all parties at the North.

The Democracy of the resent day take quite a different view of the institution, and oven go so far as to all the rebels in their in. sane attempt to make the south one vast slave territory! thus defying the Constitution and the laws of the land as well as that of the law of nations; for the very moment a des perate set of men organize themselves into rebellious bands, and attempt to overthrow established governments for the purpose of making slavery the basis of their trade and commerce, they insult. common humanity, and repudiate the morale of civilization! The Southern people never had the right, natural, moral or political to enforce slavery upon new Territories, and insult the North by its base. attempts to do it by threats.— Slavery had its limits by the will of its people, and their Constitution. It had the confines, and although, as Ex-President Plsnen says, "he regarded it as •ono of the 'greatest moral and political evils-4a curse upon the whole COuntli," still the people of the North, and• the civilized of the South bowed in submission to the power that sustained it, and would have continued to do so still i_f_the_ traitors had net made it the ground work of their rebellion Discharged SoldiOrs And Tho Con- scrjption. We are not surprised to hear that a large proportion of the volunteers, whose term of seiviert has expired, express an intention of enlisting again. Two years, or even nine months, of military life so accustom a man to the habits,of, a soldier, that ho returns with difficulty to. his .Old mode of life. Besides, there is a sort of fascination in camp life, and except in time of long marches and fighting, it is.4oeasy and lazy a life as most , mert can find: While' the discharged .tnen say they _will go back, they express a determination to wait for the conscription, when they may get $3OO as substitutes, instead of the ordinary govt. ernment bounty of $lOO This is ti good reason for hastening the_eonscription, and we trust thortrwlll be no unnecessary delay in putting the act itetto_fullu operation Probably twenty thouiand experienced and disoiplined soldiers, many of them veterans of a score.

VhiS-the Voludeer has seized upon for the purpose of justifying the treasonable course of the large portion of the Democratic press, who are daily puldish ing-everything that can have the slightest tendency to weaken the government and strengthen rebellion. The paper contains the opinions, views and expressions - of' the Federalists of 1812, which the Volunteer de nounces as.!‘-diegusting and treasonable" and then proCeeds to argue that the same course, or one infinitely worse, pursued by the Democrats of the present day is eminent ly proper and patriotic: . This may be a logical conclusion but really we are unable to see it. Suppose the war of 1812, was de nounced by leading Federalists, among whom we believe was one James Buchanan, does that give the men of the present day, who claim to have inherited from Democratic sires, the purest patriotism ever known to mortals, the right to palliate, excuse and justify the course of the men who are by their treason covering our laud viith desola-, tion and suffering '1 The Democratic leaders have for years been denouncing the course pursued by the Federalists of 1812 in opposing that war, and yet we find them now when our coun try's danger is greater, and 'her foes more numerous, doing ten times as much to aid her enemies as did the Federalists, and justi fying their c'itirse by the very precedent they have been condemning for the last fifty years. Consistency then art a jewel, verily. It appears entirely impossible for a Demo ' untie editor to abstain:from liballiug New X;rgland whenever he has India chance. In llris very article the Volunteer asserts that the New Eng'and states have always been anti-Democratic, treasonable and rebellious and have after working for-it for half a cen wary succeeded in involving the country in a civil war. This statement has no truth in it. Except Artssachus,Ats and Vermont, the New England Strifes have voted twice with the Democracy for every once they voted against it, and instead of their invol ving us in civil war every man knows that. the Democracy and those who have always been reviling the abolitionists of New Eng land are-entitled to all that.. glory. 'There is not a New England state. in arms against the government nor one which has not been taxing her resources to the utmost to crush out the rebellion, while there is not a State which east a Democratic majority two years ago that is not in arms against the Govern ment and doing its utmost to destroy it.. Under these eireumstances.it might be ex pected that Democratic politicians would allow sins long since repented cf, to be for. gotten Again, "The Federalists are the for,- fathers of our present abolitionists." We do not know whether. or not the forefathers of Hamlin, Chase, Stanton, Banks, Butler, Dix, Dickinson, Holt, Andy Johnson, Hun ter, Burnside, Fremont and a host of others who have been leaders of 'the Demucrt ey, when it had any claims to respectability, were Federalists. We know that one James Buchanan, whom the Volunteer helped to make President and who allowed traitors to overthrow the government while its protec• tion was in his care, was a Federalist of the blue light variety. As soon therefore as the Democracy purges itself of the ignominy of having made a Federal President and of having given life to the southern confederacy, the loyal men of the North may think of tracing back their genealogy for the purfic-e of testing the truth of the Volunteer's asser tion. As Dr. McClin tock's. letter bas been quoted as authority and as his views are worth some thing, we print in this connection his conclu ding sentence : A Cry of Doptiir from Richmond ilkir Men gniii women nie.rftener ruined by brilliancy than by apilnees.-- More.Coinfprt . for the Coivey-, ‘.••:• • . - Ben IYQOd has- I tIM extingaislied Dditi Nqu;,s .id4lll bitte, prOaohing trettfon'ty the ; coluinn..

General Hamilton of Texas and the Bostonians in a Bad Way. We learn from a report or the great Union Meeting at Faneuil Kali, on the Ilith of April, that Gun. lirt in iltotisaid that ho shduld probab • ly leave Masznchusetts with the credit of be• ing an Abolitionist. Then, referring to that large class of people who, after malting vari ous concessions which the times have forced upon them in regard to the evil,character and pernicietts tendencies of slaved., wind up by Saying—You must not, howeNer, suppose that I am an Abolitionist! he added: "I wish you to understand that no such distinction is to be drawn in my case. I. am as Abolition ist.•' It was plain front the prolonged shouts of of approbation which followed these words, and from the "three cheers for Oen. Hamil ton,"-most energetically given, which followed ,them, that the vast audience also were Aboli tionists, though consisting, very largely, of members oft he old political parties. Now, what the Abolitionists really are, appears from a recent letter of 'Professor Itforse,,the President of the Society for the Diffusion of Political Knowledge. Of course such a man roust be supposed to know the true character of ALolitionism. He says, speaking of the Abolitionists "Look at the dark conclat \ e of conspirators, freedom shriekers, irnirs, fierce, placable, headstrong, denunciatory, Constitu tion and Union haters, noisy, factious, breath ing forth threatenings and slaughter against all who venture a difference of opinion from them, murderous, passionate advocates of im prisonments and hangings, bloodthirsty, and if there is any other epithet of atrocity found in the vocabulary of wickedness, do they not eVeKy o.untitly deaigtafit,e.Segle phase of rad Mal . abolitionism ?" . _ It is terrible to !link of Fancuil Hall being occupied by "a dark oonclikve," and I3osi on bring g i yin) over to "murderous nal' blood thirsty advocates of hanging'," to "freedom- . shriekers"'and-"Bible•SparuerS," The Vallandigham Mee,ing in Philadelphia. The North 4merican, of Ttiesil4 last gives the following graphic and ludicrous account of the great coppery Vallandigham meeting: The more you hoe a slander the more it thrives, the more you stir a stagnant Marsh the - greater volume of malaria it exhales. The admirers of the demagogue Vallandig ham endeavored last night to get .up a. "sympathy meeting." They hoped to pro , yoke a coWision, and thrive upon the cry of persecution. They found, to their intense chagrin, that nobody gave there the least attention, and they and their inglemen were in their glory alone. They had a big stand erected in Indepen. deuce Square, and did their very prettiest on the occasion. 'there was not any distur bance during the entire evening. The speakers bad their say, and nobody inter rupted them. Their speeches were written in advance, and furnished to all the news papers that would publish them. There was so much yelling by the "boys" that not one of the speakers' voices was audible twenty feet from the stand—but as two-thirds of the crowd came to the spot from mere curiosity, nothing was lost by anybody. The committee had secured Hon. Ellis Lewis as presiding officer; and ns the first speaker obtained the Clearfield county Micaw ber, ex-Governor Bigler, Who Js again anx ious to return to the office of which he has already tasted the sweets.

I shall leave to others lo determine where the right parts of a gentleman have their proper seat and pavillion, whether at the centre or on the surface; but you may de pend upon it, that the soul and sinews of our loyal armies care nothing for all the skin deep polish and refinement of the most aristo cratic breeding, in comparison with truth and sincerity in t-he inward parts of manhood. This, more than_anything else, is what gives our Commander in-chief such a prodigious hold on the minds of his soldiers; and, 1 may add, it is making him stronger with thou the more he is known.

In fact it is nothing more than a liege sewer for the city In St. Paula I noticed a monument erected to Generals Packenham and Gibbs, who, in the language of the inscription, "fell while gallantly lead ing their troops against the enemy's works at New Orleans, January Bth, 1815." My English friend, who was explaining the monument to me, passed by the one : just named and didn't want to see it. I howe'ver called his attention to it, and remarked to him that the English nation should keep that little accurrence of the Bth of January 1815 belbre their eyes, and not allow their -,shipbuilders to !mild any more "Alabaman." They seized one vessel supposed to be buil ' ding fur the rebels, at Liverpool a l few days ago. On Thursday last I received au invi tation to Meet the Lords of the Admiralty at the Armor Plate works of John Brown & o f this place.
