Union Leagues xiieir Secrecy
and Object.
. The leaders of these secret and oath
bound organizations, are, endeavoring to
inveigle the people by the cry of " no
party," Union," support the Admin
istration," &c. But, we' again, warn
the people against the snare3 of the
enemy : assuring them, that it is Know
Nothingism disguised under a different
cognomen. Their real designs are to con
umate their diabolical schemes against
free government, and to ravish the last
vestige of American liberty ; and it is
through the agency of these " Union
Leagues," that they mean to keep their
grasp of abused power, and secure the
election of another sectional candidate to
the next Presidency. But they will tell
you that their object is to restore the
Union, but believe them not ; for their
great leader in this State has declared
that the Union never shall, u-ith my con
tent or ivith my vote, be restored under the old
Constitution r And when they endeavor
to palaver you with the "no raity" dodge,
you can refer them to another j rominent
leader, who is in constant and immediate
communication with Lincoln and his co
workers ; we mean John W. Forney,
who is more of a blatherskite than a dis
creet man; for more than onrx t.v !.;
clattering, he has let the cat out of the
bap." But they are afraid of Foiney,
and are, therefore, forced to retain him in
their confidence. In one of his Occa
sional" to the hv, ;i short tIme ago
he said-: c

and, if ,MSihle, to control the election of a
President in 1864." J a
What stronger evidence need be produ
ced, unless the jeopIe are determined to
be incredulous and again trust that party
which Is now ruining the country. '
And now a word about the secrecv of
these "Leaguers." We know there' are
a great many Democrats, disposed to be
hberal, who will hardly believe that there
re any secret oath?, grips or pa9s.
words ; because forsooth ,they hold senne
,f thT meeting Publicly. It i8 true
they hold public mrrting,. an(J j, .m
equally true, that the majority . of those
who attend and profess to belong to those
" leagues," know nothing of the secret
oath, because they are not safe to be en
trusted with it : and it is policy for their
leaders to keep them in ignorance, as to
the real purposes of the organization, be
cause, they count on their votes as a
sure thing any how. Thus, does this
grand scheme work; while the leaders
are'all sworn and bound together for
certain specific purposes, the men who
are allowed to attend those public demon
strations only, are duped, and. led . to re
ligiously believe, that the "Union
League" is based upon the purest mo
tives of assisting the Government in sup
pression of the rebellion. We ' subjoin
the following letter from the New York
Syracuse Courier, furnished by the gen
tlemen to whom it was addressed, which
will give the reader some idea 'of the
secret workings of this midnight organi
zation. Although a Republican in poli
ties, he was not so far depraved as to secretly .
connive with his more ultra brethren for
the destruction of thi3 government and
the annihilation s of American . liberty.
Democrats, be on your guard : for we as
sure you, that such secret societies are
everywhere being organized in your
midst :

Mr. . . K. Y. : You will ex-
etise mo for addressing you, a otranger to
me, bi:t from what. I hear of you we need
no found introduction. We are both loyal
men, and as such are friends at sight. My
object in addressing you on th:s occasion is
to learn if there can be organized in your
town a lot a! league rendezvous. You are
perhaps aware that our Loyal Ieagu s of
this Sta'e are to hild a Stato Convention at
this place, on the 27th instant, I am ins
firmed that your League is in process of
formation. I dare, say you know there are
two Leagues one public, another secret
the former civic and the latter military in
its plans ; and from what I am told of your
peculiar abilitie, I especially wish you to
take part in the latter.
It is essentially necessary that this organi
zation t-hnvdJ be speedily effected, the in
creating b-Mnoss and numbers of the Cop
pt'ileads in this State are such .that they
must l.e pnt down bet.. re the r,ext rresi

Tlie Snares of the Enemy.
The Union Leaguers of this place, after
considerable conniving, issued a call for
another of their ostensible meetings, which
was held in the Court House on Monday
evening last. After a great deal of de
bate and whispering about on the street
corners, it was thought most advisable to
call it a Union meeting implying no party,
in order, the more effectually to deceive
the people. John Scott, Esq., of Hun
tingdon, who, we are told, is an aspirant
ior gubernatorial honors at the hands of
the Leaguers, was selected as the big gur.
The invitation suiting Mr. Scott's
economy and political aspirations, was, of
course, readily accepted. In due time,
the speaker was on the arena with a
liue pile of old. books, consisting of text
books, Benton's works, pamphlet?, speeches
&c. from, which he occasionally read a
verse.' He said he was a no party man.
He ddFered a little with the Administra
tion, but he believed the acts'and whims
of Mr. Lincoln were paramount over the
liberties of the people, because this re
bellion must be put down and the people
must not oppose the Administration. lie
contended that Gen. Jackson's conduct at
the battle of New Orleans, was a prece
dent for Mr. Lincoln ; and that the Presi
dent had a right to suspend the writ of
habca corpus wherever and whenever he
pleased; to make arrests of traitors
wherever he found them : and if the safe
ty of the country required it, Mr. Lincoln
had a right even to do away with the
Constitution, for a time, in order to crush
this unholy rebellion. He endorsed all
the acts of this Administration, and de
fended the illegal arrests of Mr. Lincoln
His speech in all, which was about two
hours long, was a carefully studied piece
of sophistry, well calculated to deceive
the unsuspecting. , t .
We were since told by a gentleman who
is intimate with Mr. Scott, that his pri-
vate views are quite different from those
he publicly enunciated in that meeting.
Why Mr. Scott speaks in public to . the
people one way, and in his private con
versation entertains different views, we
are unable to say ; and unless the speaker
mistake the temper and intelligence of the
people of the mountain county, we are
unable to conjecture what designs he had
in coming here to abuse and vilify the
Democratic party, other than to ensnare
unsuspecting Democrats into the enthral
dom of the "Union Leajrue." 1
We had the pleasure of taking ' by
the haad, Captain and Lieutenant Dow
ney, of Johnstown. They were out in the
three month's service, and afterwards,
when the call was mado for nine month's
men, they willingly ; volunteered : to serve
their country. They behaved gallantly
during their, enlistment ; and merited, not
only that distinction which their rank
gave to them, but they won for them
selves, the affections and good wishes 'of
those who were in subordination to them
Their personal appearance, fine social
qualities and sterling Democracy, are
accomplishments sufficient for their recom
mendation anywhere. May t-uccess at
tend them.
O" We learn from the Clearfield Re
publican, that Daniel Ullman, who used to
figure a conspicuous part in the politics of
Clearfield county, is now in New Orleans
operating under Gen. Banks ; and it is
announced that he is to be put in com
mand of 200,000 negro soldiers, wh:ch
the Secretary of War promises to raise
and furnish. The same paper remnrks
that Ullman is well calculated for the
business; and thinks it would be, a capital
idea for the North to get rid of their free
negroes by giving Ullman full control
over them.
v?" By some misunderstandinc, we
missed the name of Mr. John E. M'Ken
zie. who was appointed one of the Vice
Presidents of .the mass meeting last week.
Mr. M'Kenzie is a good man and a work
ing Democrat, and we are glad to state
that he was among the officers of that
meeting. . , '

Tbe New York. World Addresses
the President on Mr. Yallan
dighani's Arrest.
To the President of the United States :
Sir: When, something less than a
year ago, a public journal in this city
made through its editorial columns, a per
sonal address to you under the proper sig
nature of its editor, and you honored it
by a respectful, argumentative reply, the
dignity that hedges around the First Ma
gistrate of the country were so far relaxed,
by your gratuitous condescension, as to
relieve a similar address by another public
journal from the inrpntation of presump
tuous impertinence which might otherwise
attach to it. Our purpose i taking re
course . to this unusual form of comment
on a public transaction Is not to make an
insolent claim to address you on an as
sumed level of equality, unmindful of the
respect due to' your high office, but sim
ply to avail ourselves of a sort of conven
tional support . in the difficult observ ance
of the decorum which befits a discussion
of the public acts of the President of the
United States. The form of a direct ad
dress brings us, as it were, into the exe
cutive presence, and puts us, by not a
very difficult effort of the imazination.
under the restraints which good breeding
would impose on a citizen remonstrating
with you to your face against proceedings
oi wnicn u is aimcuit for a freeman to
speak with becoming command of tem
per. '
Your revision of the proceedings of the
military 'commission by which Mr. Val-
landiptiam was tried' and sentenced has
resulted in an act which amounts to an
expression of your full approval of the
whole course of these proceedings from
their inception in setting disguised "officers
as spies on his track, through the' drag
ging him from his bed in the nisht time,'
the trial without indictment or jurv, and
the protest against the issue of" a writ of
habeas corpus, down to the declaration of
a heavy penalty for an act which is' not
only no vi0lHti0n of any .existing law, but
S.a r)f'nt sacredly guaranteed by the Con
stitution, which, at your inauguration,
with becorning appearance of sensibility
to its obligation?, you took a so'emn oath
to preserve, protect and defmd. The fact
that yru nave changed the sentence,
changes no esset tial aspect in the case.
It is merely the difference between con
finement and transportation. To draw
an illustration from English l.islorv, it 7s
substitution of Botony Bay for the Tower.
I he essential fact remains nr.cbanerd.
that a citizen is punished for tW rrn-rise of
right,-that the law lias be-n violated
not by him who suffors the penalty, but
by him who declares it, , Yom- approval
of the proceedings fmp'iod "n vour fixin'
the penalty, absolves all the' lesser agents
and brings heme the whol- resjnsibiiity
to you. Their acts thus become your
acts ; their'spies your spies ; their soldiers,
skulking in darkness to perpofrare a deed
which shuns the light of day. your instru
ments: their military commission, your
Star Chamber; Q n?ral Burn-ides 'silly
protest, your exposition of the nullity,
under your administration, ' of the most
sacifd guarantees of the Constitution.
By making the sentence and its execution
your sole act, 3011 indorse, and give the
panctioii of your high office to all the ex
traordinary proceedings which terminated
in Mr. Vallandigham's conviction,
You have read, Mr. Lincoln, In the
quiet shades of Springfield, where yon
passed so large a portion i f your IifJ in
the unostentatious practice of the private
virtues which gained you the eeom of
your nci-hbors, and in the honest perform
ance of useful duties which gae them a
favorable opinion of your nbili'ioc ;n
that tranquil retreat, sir, with the horror
natural to an ingenious mind, you have
read of the Roman Emperor who placed
his edicts so high in the air that they
could not be deciphered by the keenest
eye, and yet severely punished anv breach
of them. Why, was it sir, that by a
sure moral instinct, producing an instant
conviction that which no rcsonr. f
logic cculd either fhake or confirm why
was it that your sense of justice revolted '
wuii me wnoie strength of your honest
nature, against so execrable an instance of
tyranny ? Pray, sir, do not be startled ;
but, with the steadiness of perception of
which we know you to be canable. ana

there was still a possibility that, by extra
ordinary pains, men might come to knoV
what it contained. But how are men, in
this free country, and under your well
meaning administration, to know what
actions are consistent with their personal
safety, when the laws which they are
punished for violating are no l(mi:.
I tf" n the atute books, but lie buried in"
tuC ...scruiaoie discretion or unaccounta

is of the essence, not of liberty, but of
justice, that the laws shall be made by
one body of men and executed by another
In the institutions of the great Anglican
race to which we are proud.to belong,
the legislative and judicial departments of
government are carefully separated ; the
parliament, congress or legislature ordain
ing the law, . without knowing whom it
may affect, and the courts applying it to
lH ' ca8 thont any power to
' bend or warp ,t, by conscious or uncon.-
scious bias, for or against the particular
prisoner before them. The offense is de
fined, the penalty declared, the mode of
trial ordained, by men who, knowing
nothing of the persons to be affected by
them, are governed by a strict sense of
abstract justice. The citizen has a per
fect knowledge of his rights, remedies and
liabilities ; the law is in the statute book,
neither posted on a tall column nor ren
dered still more illegible . by concealment
in' the ' future caprices of a discretion
which makes light of long established
precedents, and classes as crimes what our
fathers inscribed f in the Constitution as
inviolate rights. ! Under the just and be-

the day would so soon come when the

great lawyer and statesman, who "stood
up with such masculine strength against

very brief extracts from bis description
of a tribunal famous in English hiMorv,
