fis WE EXPECTED.
In our. country's struggle for life
against a barbarous rebellion, says the
Lewisburg Star & Chronicle, it is desira
ble that there should be as few causes of
.
distraction among the loyal people as pos-
eible. 'On this account, the Republican
friends of the jiational Administration,
during the receni, campaign in this State,
made comparatively effort to arouse
patty excitement, or to get out votes. In
nearly or quite every county where they
'had a clear majority they either . invited
• r• all true
. supporters of 'the .var policy to
join them in makig nominationS, or they
~ openly gsve Douglas Democrats ood
1 ,
offices—couuties, id whah the Rep bli
! cans might have every man. These ; ere
done in the best possible spirit—with , the
hope that a temporary Sacrifice' of party
interest and feeling, would be in the end
1 best
1 1 e for the country.
How were these advanceimet r In a
few Republican counties; only, but one
ticket was formed, and elected—Delaware
and Huntingdon,for example In doubt
, ful districts, they insisted upon our giv
ing the best Offices to Men suspected of
Secessionism. But wherelhe Democrats
bad a clear majority, Diey hooted and
F corned all "amalgamation with .Black
Republicans," .and grasped every: office s
high or low. They put forth more'efforts
to excite party rage and animosity than
Lst year, and issued More detestable
falseho, ds and insinuations . ' wherever they
, thought the people ignorant enough to
bear them.
Thus our party generally conducted
the ea mpaign on the Peace plan—concil
iation, and a "westerly inactivity," giv.
•
ing away our own positions of honor and
d
profit. Our opponents itook the War
plan— . Keep What you ba e, and . get

We wish every easy, Food-ndtund,
,thoughtless Republican—who is so often
persuaded to desert his :party and his
Mewls, by the plausible fibs of every
fly-tenoned Democrat—'had before them a

er iit ,is l either politic orl just to yield,
where nothing ik yielded to us ? whether
it is expedient to keetQduivo friends, and
exalt oppouents who Will jeer at our folly
and 6tupidity?
',So long as we do esteem ourselves
tight and our party safe, lEit us stand by
each. other and the Administration of
whose fidelity there is no doubt.
The idea of purchasing patriotism, is
prfposterons. The more offices and mon
ey!Arnold had, the wore exacting and
the more a traitor he became. Neither
Bolt, Johnson nor any other xanE.Union.
Democrat• asks or needs a civil office to
bind or attract them to the cause of their
country, arid of military IMnors they have
their share. •
The- cry that was I made, a few
months ago, against Gov. Curtin in regard
to ,contracts, &e., turns out to have been
trithouta* just foundation: The Com
missioners appointed to inquire into the
matter we learn from the Harrisburg Pa
.
trtot, acquit the Governor of all censure;
and the Grand Jury of the Quarter Ses
isions of Philadelphia, befcire which the
matter was brought, on Saiurday last d:
Glared. racist emphatically ;after exarnin•
iog all the testimony theyi could obtain,
they could discover no evidence that any
frauds bad been committed in the j pur
chase of clothing and other articles for
the Pennsylvonia volunteers laSt spring.
The Bulletin' says that the clamor made
by interested "persons, disappointed job
bers and general mischief-makers proves.
_therefore, to havelbeen perfectly ground
less, The Governor. and state authori:
ties are entirely exonerated, and tbehon
or of the state is vindicated. -
lire give a large portion. of our space
this morning to a report of the details of
~
the great Military and Naval Expedition
to the Southern coast, which sailed in
Friday last. .BY request bi the Gotiern.
' ment we havescrupulonsly refrained from
giving . our readers any information in re
gard to it onlil-such times as; in the
opinion of the constituted authorities,the
public interest would not suffer thereby.
The'expeditionl Ong sailed, the oblige
tion,of secrecy i r
removed, and wwt,there
fore.present this morning, as above said.
full details of its composition and equip
ment. The destination of the fleet is, of
course, a: secret ; we shall undoubtedly,
however, have important tidings front it
within a very few days ludeed; at any
hour we may receive the news of opera
tions on a scale hitherto unknown in the
annals of
,the Rebellion. The military
part of the expe'dition,includes about 16,-
000 troops. It is a matter for refire. that
certain of ou cotemporaries should have
seen fit to diregard the. express request
of the Gov rntnent, and •prematurely
i
publish such
,particulars concerning the
expedition al they could obtain,. - Our.
Washington correspondent informs trs th .

lines
The _Secretary of .near. issued instruc
tions to Gen. Sherman, in command of the
Sduthern Expedition, concerning thedi?.
position he shou'd make of fugitive sieves.
The dispatch containing se in. true-
Lions will be . found in our telegraphic
coldmns. The General: is directed to
take for his guidance the instructions ,
givb by the Department to Geti. Butler
some time since; much, however, is left
to: hiS discretion. He •is authorized to
accept the services of all who offer them
selves, whether they -are slaves or not;
and he is, moreover, to emloy them in tiny
capacity he chooses, even, if it shall seen
to him expedient, - being allowed to arm
them. Heis directed to assure all loyal
toasters that Congress will reimburse them
for:any loss they may suffer. •
' From Washington we have no especial
news. Our troops occupy Vienna. and
Our pickets are a toile beyond 'Abandele
The Rebels are said to be fortifying Cen
treville. Our correspondent states that
Gen. McClellan, lin an order lie is soon
to issue, praising the valor 'of the troops
in the recent affair at Leesburg, will
sound the charge' for the advance of the
whole army. The Rebel. accounts of their
loss at Edward's Ferry place it at 300
killed and wounded.
We print this , morning the orders of
GsMeral Stone to Colonel E. D. Baker,
under.which the latter acted in the battle
at Edward's Ferry. They were found on
his body when he fell, and one of them
had been mutilated by the bullet which
killed him.

LATEST WAR NEWS.
I=
OUR ARMY CORRESPONDSNCE.
CAMP LEWIS, Oct. 17, 1861.
,
EDITOR JOURNAL ; Having heard that
persons in out.
,regiment have , written
honie that they are - not well fed .and
clothed by. Uncle Saw., and knowing that
such reparts are calculated.to disittrb the .
quietude of 'zany
. who have sons and
brothers in the army, I will give you a
statement of the articles drawn by each
I person in our regiment. In Elarribbnre
each pe4on received: 'one coat, one pair
of pants,`one shirt, one pair of Stockings,
one pair of drawers, one pair of ,shoes,
one cap, :onc-blanket; Since Our arrival
here each person, has received one over
coat, and are to receive an extra bla nket,
and one pair of wrappers . Takin into
consideration the difference in cliniate
I
between Slaryland and Potter county and
one can easily see that 'this is sufficient.
In regard to rations I have heard n'o
com
plaints, except by some persons wh o have
been aceustotned to find a scenty 'board
at home and upon finding plemy here
would gerge:thcruselves t) the exploding
point, and then, have a fit of sickness as
the penalty.- Some of the emnpanids have
rb the three weeks we have been here)
sold forty dollars wean of provistonisfrom
their regular rations, and the Qartermas
ter of Company II informs me lie has
sold provi4ions to the atuotint of t'.lyelve
dollars and has about fifteen dollars worth
on Mind for sale at the presentl time.
The money so received is used for the
companys' comfort;, they expend it tor
'any extra clothing, 'or delicacy they May
wish. and betweet the ration's delivered
by the Government and what is ptirellased
by this. fund,. all. of our soldiers "fora as
well as the wealiliiest families in Potter.
We deliVer rations every third da l j and
as a statement of what - soldiers I st:bsiSt '
upon may be interesting to soine
give you a list and the quantity of pro
visions 'delivered to each person every
third day : pork f lbs , bacon f lbs , fresh
beef 1 lb 6 oz., flbui 2f lbs., hard bread
r lb., beans 1 quart, rice 1 . 1 b., coffee / lb.,
sugar / lb.;vitieTar 2 gills, Fritatoesl lbs.;
thus making an 'aggregate of 11f lbs. of
provision :for each- person. One Can but
.1
,acknowledge that it aught to satisfy the
most voracious appetite, and I think many
persons 'would shudder at the thought of
concealing:such an amount beneath their',
vest biiitons in so limited a spate ?f time.
Who those persons :were that informed
the peo'ple that we were in a starving
condition T do pot know; but t ! o their
friends 1 would say : rest assured the
Potter .iboys" are in no danger' unless it
may be, from suffocation. It would be
difficulti to find a jollier set of 'fellows
than may be seen just below playinglball
and pitching quoits. Their shduts re
sound at the present time with a l ust too
hearty- for starved people.
I had nearly forgotten to acknOwledge
the receipt of your'paper; but if 'you had
been here I . think you 'would have been
pleased at the avidity with which it was
read. I never Saw an illustration l
of the
s.ory of rei.ding all the print off la paper
before, but it was. literally .done with the
1- -
one you sent me.' Our boys wished me
to report a vote of thanks for the' same.
The heillth of the Yankee Battalion (as
it is called here) is very good at) present
having:but two on the sick list i Beldin
from Wharton,..abd Robert Lawson from.
Summit.. They. have been reiiioved to!
the hospital at Baltimore and were recov
ering when we heard from them last.. I
have nothing to communicate concerning
the war. as nothing has occurred in our
division of late, and you
. receivel advices
from the others much sooner than we do,
° . Yours Respectfully, 0. J. :AEES.
