Impudent Traitors.—There aro a few Trai
tor sympathisers in this place more impudent
than others, who employ . themselves in stroll
ing about the town seeking an opportunity
to brow-beat and insult loyal citizens. Un
like some others with whom they are leagu
ed they refuse to bide their guilty heads,
but rather "glory in their shame" by de
nouncing the government for the part it has
taken to suppress the present wicked Rebel
lion. With them" everything is • Abolition,
szcept those like themselves who sympathise'
with the Traitors. It has always been a
wonder to us that these brawling-mouthed
traitors who prate so much about Critten
don's- resolutions, State Rights, and th e
wrongs inflicted upon the traitors of the
Beath by the Abolitionists, do not go and
fight under the "Rattlesnake Banner," as
some of them bolted they would do a little
more then a year ago. It is certainly inoon
sistant for these able-bodied "mud-sills" to
remain at home in the north and claim the
protection of a government which they so
despise and,seek to.misrepresent, whilst their
dear brethern in arms, the oppressed 'chival
ry," are struggling—we were going to say
running—for their independence. Would
it not be more creditable for these cowardly
braggarts, even in the estimation of more
courageous rebels, to seal their lips. Their
very,, actions indicate an absence of moral
- courage and a craven, cowardly heart.
Previous to the outbreak of the Rebellion
some of the sympathisers boasted that 150,-
000 Pennsylvanians would fight for the Trai
tors—now they Rave come down a peg and ,
assert that there are 100,000 persons in the ,
state who would rise to assist in putting
down the government. Rut fortunately the
day for such treasonable slang 4o have any
effect has gone by. Anarchy in Pennsylva
nia is a foregone conclusion, however much
Traitors within her borders may scheme, and
hope and pray for it. No wonder the Tories
_here and elsewhere in the North are chagrin
ed and seek to vent their spleen upon Union
citizens by :Tidying to them such opprobrious
epithets as Abolitionist. No wonder the
zinging of our town bells over a Union vic
tory ie much disturbs their equilibrium.—

I=l2l=
nr The recent great -victories of the-Na
tional armies over the Southern traitors have
had a very irritating effect upon the sympa
thisers with rebellion in the loyal States.—,
After each announcement of a Union tri
umph, we have a fresh outbreak of bitter de
nunciation of the Federal Administration
and the measures adopted by Congress to
punish the traitors who have plunged the
country into its present troubles. A defeat
of the rebels hurts their feelings terribly.—
They are afraid to indulge in open expres
sions of sympathy with their vanquished al
tos, u ey pour or a res-
against the "Black Republicans" and "Abo
litionists" who are disposed to deal rigidly
with the assassins of our liberties. Watch
their expressions, and you cannot fail to ob
serve the fact.
Habeas Corpus.—Those who have made
, such a howl about the suspension of the hab
eas ecmpus, will of course . be terribly shocked
to hear that Jeff. Davis has, by proclamation
dated May 7, ordered the suspension of the
habeas corpus in the counties of Lee, Wise,
McDowell, Buchanan and Wyoming, Va.,
and that martial law is declared therein, and
the fat Kentucky traitor, Humphrey Mar
shall, is put in military command. Can't
Virginia show Jeff. the "resolutions of '98,"
of which we have heard so much ?—those
sticklers for State rights can strain at a gnat
and swallow a camel. There could be no
Virginian found, we suppose, to take the
lead in the work to be performed in those de
voted counties, but a satrap from a distance,
who dare not show hig face in his native
State, from which he has been obliged to fly
from the excited wrath of a betrayed peo
ple, is placed in charge to carry out the hel
lish plans in store for these poor down-trod
den children of Virginia.—Bale. Clipper.
Summer.—Nearer and nearer comes the
gentle tread of Summer. Over the green
fields, and on the hill side, and in the valley,
and along the winding road, the grass:is
growing brighter in its hue, and the earth
happier in its verdure. New among the
closely woven treetops the swelling buds are
opening to the genial air, warming into life
by day, and drinking in the _gentle dew, in
the quiet hours of night. How more ,than
all the other seasons of the year the Spring
time calls back • the scenes of earlier years
when life flowed like a happy dream, and the
clouds and gloom • of after time Were but a
myth, that nevi was to be reality, to us. •
Struck by Lightning.—A storm passed o
ver this town on ;Wednesday night last ac
companied with the most vivid lightning and
loud peals of thunder. During the progress
of the - storm the lightning struck into the
Cupola of the German Reformed Church
breaking the wheel to which the bell-rope is
attached, also the railing, and passing down
into the Church, considerably damaged the
coiling and carpeting, and tore np.the
floor

Brothertotes stable, was also struck and com
pletely shattered.
The Veda of the Rebeilices.—The terri.
Ile moral effects of the rebellion 'upon the
South may be gathered . from the following
extzset from'the "IC C. Presbyterian:"
"Many churches are vacant, the ministers
having gone to the war. Most of our Sun

The tellowing is the proclamation by the

- . -A PROCLAMATIO N . .
There appears in the publie

Major General Hunter, ih the' wards. and
figures following, to wit:
UEADQ'RS oT•THE DEVI' DT,TRE. &MTH,
lIILToN DEAD, S. C. v iquy 9, 1802 ,
GENERAL ORDER, No. 11. The three
states Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina,
comprising the military - DepartMent of the
South, having delibenttely declared them
selves no longer under the protection of tire
United-States of America, and having taken
p--arms—against the-said United-Statcs,4
became a military necessity to declare them
under martial law. This was accordingly
done on the 25th day ., of April, 1802.
. Slavery and martial law in a tree country
aro altogether incompatible. The persons
in these three States—Georgia, Florida and
South Carolina—heretofore held as'slaves
are, therefore; declared forever free.
DAVID HUNTER,
Major General Commanding.
Edw. W. Smith, Acting Ass't Adj't Gen.
And' whereas, The same is producing
some excitement and misunderstanding there
fore,
1, ABRAHAM LxNcomg, President of the
United States, proclaim and declare that the
Government of the United States had no
knowledge, information, or belief of an in
tention on the part of Gen. Hunter to issue
such a proclamation, nor has it yet any au
thentic information that.• the document is
genuine; and, further, that neither General
hunter nor any other commander or person
has boon authorized
,by the G-otornment of
the United States EIS make a proclamation
declaring the slaves of _au state free, and
that the supposed proclannWon now in ques
tion, whether genuine or false, is altogether
void, so fir as respects such a declaration.
I further make it known that; whether it
of the army and navy, to declare the slaves
of any state or'states free, and whether at
any time, in any case, it shall have become a
necessity indispensable to the maintainance
of the Government to exercise such a sup
posed power, are questions which,l cannot
feel justified in leaving to the eeision of
commando's, in the field. These are totally
different questions from those of police reg
ulations in The armies and camps.
On the 6th day of
. March last, by a spe
cial me; age, I reco amended to Congress the
,adoption of a joint resolution, to be substan
tially as f o ll o w s :
"Res 'lced 1 bath United State - 4 ougkt to .!o
operate with any State which may adopt a
g actual abolishment of slavery, giving to such
States pecuniary ' aid, to be used by such
States, in its discretion, to compensate for
the inconveniences, public and private, 'pro
duced by such a change of' system."
The resolution, in the language above
quoted, was adopted by large majorities in
both branches of Congress, and now stands
an authentic, definite, and solemn. proposal
of the nation to the States and people most
immediately interested in the subject matter.
To the people of those States I now ear
nestly appeal. Ido not argue; I beseech
you to -make the arguments for yourselves.
You cannot, if you would, be blind to the
signs of the times. I beg, of you a calm and
enlarged consideration -of them, ranging, if'
it may be, far above personal and partisan
politics.
This proposal makes common cause for a
common object, casting no reproaches upon
any. It acts not the Pharisee. The change
it contemplates would come gently as the
dews of heaven—not rending or' wrecking
anything. Will you not embrace it? so much
good has not been done by one effort in all
vf /
past time, as, in the p ovidence of God, it is
now your high priv ego to do. : May ,, the
vast future not ha to lament that you have
neglected it!
In witness whereof, I have' hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the city 'of Washington, this the
nineteenth day of May, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and
aiacy-two and of the Independence of the
trniteditates-the eighty-sixth.

The Stevens' batter,Y, '•known as the-Nauga

of action in front of Richmond; and 'Flume
some interesting details the important op
erations of Cointopioro Rodgers' fleet in'the
upper **era' of the James river.,
It seems that' one iron-clad sloop-of-war
Galena proceeded` up the river, leadin7 the
fleet, anti iiileacing. , :the. many minor batter

arrived at a Out the James river about 8
miles . below :Itiefunofid i '.whore - there is a
bluff, -lition;whieh a series of strong batter
ies have been constructed up to the city.
These - batteries were found to be mount
ed with superior rifled guns of very, heavy
ca ib-re.
The Galena was moored in close to these
shore batteries yesterday morning, and open
ed a terrific fire upon them, the 23iottitor,
'Naugatuck, and other, vessels assisting.
At first, the shot of the rebel guns retie
of the sides of the Galena, making only dents
in her mail, but gradually, after five hours'
fighting, it was found that the stool pointed
balls used by the rebels were piercing her.
Thirty shots struck her and.lodgod, whilst
two went entirely through her, tumbling out
on the other side
A shell burst in the Galena during the
engagement.• which unfortunately killed 17
of the crew and wounded 19. But even
this sad accident did , not .dishearten the
brave Capt. Rodgers and his crew. They
fought on until dark, and until their ammu
nition had nearly given out.
The Naugatuck was ably haulded by Capt.
Constable, but, after firing seven magnificent
shots, her splendid bow gun burst, killing 2
men and wounding 3 others, including Capt.
Constable, who was Formic in the head by a
piece of the flying metal. We are happy to
learn that lie is not seriously injured. ,
A flaw was discovered in the metal, and

this yeas, 0 doubt, the cause of the explo
sion.
Lieutenant Morris, in command of the
gunboats POrt Royal, and late of the Cum-
land, was sliglifly woun e ,
Commodore Rodgers. was - wounded pain
fully, bull not seriously, in the loft check.
These are all the eausalties heard of up to
the sailing of the Naugatuck for Fortress
Monroe.
The slaughter anion; the rebels in the
batteries is said to have been terible, although
they had the advantage of our gunboats in
having the batteries situated on a bluff.
The fight will be renewed shortly, when
Commodore Rodgers hopes to silence the
rebel forts, and if be can pan the obstrutions
known to be placed in the river above the
battaries,be wi:l take the city.
A morter boat was greatly needed during
the action, as with it the batteries could have
been taken quite easily.
The Monitor was at last accounts abetd,
no ball yet fired by the enemy having any
effect upon her iron-clad turret.
FROM GEN. BANKS' ARMY.
Guerillas Becoming Troublesome—The move.
meals of Geis. Geary.
STRAsstra, Va, May' 10.—It is currently
reported and credited in military circles t •
2,000 rebel cavalry, attached to the differ
ent commands, have been disbanded. and
formed into guerilla bands, occupying the
various mountain ranges and fastnesses.
Col Geary, a few - days since, learned that
one of these bands was in a cave 5 miles
from Reptortou'n, and made arrangements to
surround and capture them. On reaehing
the cave he ascertained that they had vaca
ted it the previous day.
A party of 40 men, with horses,.had evi
dently been. there for some time, living
sumptuouily, judgingfrom the bottles, boxes,
cans, &c.
It is probable they were a portion of the
force which captured Geary a guard train
near Linden last week, and retreatod, towards
Warrenton on Shields' approach.
Gen. Geary has been ordered to report. to
Gen. Banks in future. Ho has been re
lieved from guarding the lower portion of
the Manassas road, which duty ho has per
formed for several weeks to the extent of
strmiles.
The Blue Ridge and adjacent ranges - find
spurs are infested - with guerillas, who watch
every opportunity to shoot and capture our
pickets and foraging parties. Their famili:
arity with the mountain .defiles and pa:ses
enable them to elude pursuit.
Strasburg, Va. May 20.—Last night the
guerillas came do wif upon our pickets at the .
bridge, west of thoroughfare, and killed or
took two- prisoners. They belonged to the
First battalion Michigan Cavalry, cotoniand

A Negro _lnsurrection Imminent.
NEW font:, May 18.—Letters from Port
Royal, by the steamer Atlantic, report that
the secession of the negro pilot, Small, who
ran away from Charleston withthe rebel-tug
boat, is deemed more important than the
heavy guns she contained, as Small is thor
oughly acquainted with all theintricaeies of
the navigation in that region
Oenneral Munter's.proolamation bad been
published in Charleston, and a negro-insur
rection there was imminent.
Vust preparations are making to laombard
Savannah. Our gunboats have-proceeded
up the river, and our pickets aro within 4
miles of Savannah. Massive batteries,
Mounting Parrott guns ; have been erected
all around the city. Our troops have a pon•
tl,-- ilroad br'
iion of fie - rut ietwecn Charleston and
Savannah in their possession.
A negro regiment is being orpnized by
Gen. Hunter, its officers being selected from
the Atitssachusetts regiments, and the Move
ment meets with favor, as they will be able
to perform duties Which will relieve our troops.
The Hon. A. H. Reeder of Pennsylvania
has two sons in the army. One is in the
Kansas Ist Regiment, and is represented to
be brave as a lion. - The other commanded
a battery of two siege guns at the fight at
New Madrid, and 12 of the 25 men under
him were killed or wounded. His own cap
was cut with a shell, and one ball passed
through his clothes, and another through
his thigh. He tied up his wound, and stood
by his guns until the close of the engage
ment. He was complimented in the report
of his superior officers, and is now at his
father's it Easton, confined to 'his bed suf
fering from th e combined effects of his
wound and of arsenic administered to him
in a pie purchased• of a Rebel fanner. His
reeuvery was very slow, mid• at one time
deemed doubtful, but he is now considered
out of danger.
• Death of Lieut. Nesbitt Rougher. •
It is with feelings of. heart-felt sorrow
that we record the death of this gallant
young officer. The sad event occurred at
Quincy, 111., to which . - place ho was removed
from the bloody battle-field of Pittsburg
Landing, where he was so severely wounded'.
It was hoped 'that his vigorous constitution
and previous unimpaired. health woutd carry
him through the fearful ordeal; but the fiat
has gone forth, and he- is now in the silent
embrace of death—arleing another victim to
this unholy rebellion. Our young friend
bore himself gallantly in the fight, and his
friends have the consolation to know that he
fell in a righteous cause. His remains are
expected here to-day, and will be interred in
Ever Green Cemetery.—actlyaburg. Senti
