We think there are but few individuals
among the masses in Pennsylvania, who favor
the destructive doctrine Of secession, aud the
robbery of the public property consequent
thereon. Yet it is a fact that many OF the
late Breckenridge papers, though they do not
openly approve, yet endeavor to palliate and
excuse these outrages upon our government
and glorious Union.
Thus one Of the late Breckenridge organs
Of this neghborhood notices the treason Of
General Twiggs
"SURRESuEnxD.-Genera Twiggs, who had
charge of the military department Of the State Of
Texas, surrendered all the federal property under
his charge, into the hands of the Texas authori.
ties"
Not a word is uttered in regard 10 the
tratorous conduct Of Twiggs, but the fact is
simply stated as If it we're fair aud manly
business transaction. If q respectable jour
nal should refer to the depredatons Of a
notorious burglar, in the same style, it would
probably read thus:
SUCCESSFUL ENTERrRlsE.-Mr Richard Tur-
pin, vulgarly called DICK TURIN by bis enc.
mics, visited last night, after midnight, the
residence Of u. S. A, known as Brother
Jonathan, aud finding the proprietor and his
family quietly asleep, entered his dwelling
with keys which had been entrusted to his
care and safe keeping. Mr. 'rurpn peacea.
bly, took possession of all the silver plate
! coin, watches. and other valuables that be
could lay bis hands on. belonging to the pro.
! prietor, and removed them to his own quar-
ters, for the use and comfort of himself and
such Of his neighbors who sympathize with
him in enterprises Of chvalry and the equal
| distribution of property. This bold and da,
ring enterprise of Mr. Turpu will, no doubt
be stigmatised by hypocritcal moralists as e
! burglary or midnight robbery. But MIR
Turpn's fame, in his line, is world wide, and
! these attacks Of moralists aud christians will
fall harmless at his feet.

Nothing is more interesting aud Instructive
than to observe which were tho 6rm and
loyal States iu the dark days Of our history.
During the thirteen years prior to the
adoption of the Constitution, in 1857. the
General Government had no power OF taxa
tion. Even when, in March, 1881, the whole
OF the States assented to the Articles of
Confederation" Con- ress had only the
power of indicating what sums it stood in
need Of, and of requesting each State to con.
tribute the fair proportion which it was its
duty to pay. The adoption Of the Articles of
Confederation rendered this an honorable
obligation. which each State, though it could
not be compelled, was bound to meet 1t is
most interesting To observe how it was met
during the i've years which elapsed between
1882 and 1887.

their respective loyalty and good faith. 1t ia
