TOT the good of the governed, but for the power and good of the wealthy and educated classes of society, and to maintain them by, the unpaid Ia. bors of the poor and ignorant.
 It is plain that no man or set of men eonld hold such sentiments amid the air of New Eno. lands hills, were not their yitals poisoned with the virus of Slavery, which forms nucleus in the heart of Democracy, for the morbidities of aristocracy and monarchy.
 Now, as this war has been forced upon us by Slavery, or the Abolitionists, as some say-al] the same; for take the former away and the lat ter go too-will not the people of all sects and parties look this thing square in the face, and say the war shall go on, the Government be sup ported, Freedom and Democracy maintained and if Slavery stands in the way, then it mus dse. - SOLICITOR.

EXTRACT OF A LETTER addressed to our MAJ OR SxIvELLY by Pennsylpanian of Harrisbrg, dated tke l9tk inst:
 DEAR MAJOR The war is going on slowly, but surely. The rebels quit their stronghold at Harpers Ferry, through fear of our Troops; and m their hurry to be of, sacrificed much property, when in fact no one was near them; verifying the truth of the scripture that ss The wicked flee when no man pursueth.'
 They have been called .s The Southern Chival- rv.. but more confempnb1e, uod 7forsaken peo- pls nevsr existed. So far from eyincing senti- ments of honor, they tar and feather helpless females for uttering words in opposition te Slavery. Eugene is in Washington, and Simon is at Funkstown; and both go with ths army to Manassas Gap, if >the traitors do no run. If they do, the fight will be at Richmond There can be no peace until the rebels shal be subdued, their stolen property surrendered. and until some of the leading fomenters of a causeless and wicked rebellion shall be hung I will live sooner on bread and water for year to come than not to help put the rascals down, and if they kill my boys I will join the ranks myself

NEW MILFORD.


 Geo. Stuart, Esq, of Sherman, who enlisted as 3 private in the lst Company lst Regiment Con. necticut Volunteers at the very opening of the re, bellion has been promoted to the position of lst. Lieutenant, in the Regular Army. He has oi course enlisted for life. He passed through this place where he ha. sslny friends Tuesday on his way to Washington to await orders. He reports that the five bbls of shirts and cake and cheese; which the ladies of New Milford and vicinity for warded to his company, were acceptable. He was then in the company and the brave fellows had had nothing whatever to eat for forty four hours, when the supply from this place most sea. sonably arrived. It is hoped that the other towns in the County, while they are zealous in raising poles and flags, will not forget to minis CT of their abundance to the brave soldiers who are in the field to defend us and our liberties. A little ex- ertion in each town in the County would easily procure handsome contribution of woolen shirts and stockings, dried beef cheese and hard gin- ger bread which would materially comfort and cheer our noble-hearted brethren in the Camp These are homely supplies, it is true, but they the very articles which cost little can be trans- ported without loss, and furnish an agreeable va. riety to the rations and much comfort to the men.

A most patriotic and heroic spirit was dis- s played by one of the Ohio soldiers. He was nlA by Mimic ball, which shattered bis arm, renr dering it entirely useless. No longer aele i9 uso his musket on the rebels, with his shAttefeo limb dangling by his side, he threw 1t down and cried out, "I am for the Union iorever give me a pistol.n This weapon being iarn.saea Rim by private standing by his side. the nsaye fsllow blazed away at the traitors until he senk to the ground from the loss of blood.

For the Litchfield Enquirer.

MR EDITOR R:-Some things we see, and some we hear. That which we see we know. and that which we hear in our midst, much of it we know to be the truth. From what we see and hear, we know that traitors are in our midst! They walk the streets as unconcerned as if it were virtue to be one. They converse with us upon the top ics of the day, taking no pains to conceal their traitorous feelings. How long is this thing to continue? How long are the people of this place to remain quiet, and allow traitors to give utter ance to their abominable sentiments? Will not forbearance, after while, cease to be virtue ? Do not men pass our streets, who gloat with fendish delight the fall of every son of Free dom, who gives his life in the great struggle now going on for constitutional freedom?
 Have we not men about us, who almost night ly meet in secret conclave, and with joyous mirth fatten upon the shrieks and cries of our sons, brothers and friends, who have boldly stepped forward to give up their lives for the preserva- ton of those constitutional guaranties, which have so long afforded us peace and security !? What commentary upon human nature! When men can gloat over the most brutal and dastard. ly acts of cruelty and despotism ever practsed upon libcrty-loving people, and howl with sa- tanic joy over every life given to arrest the spread of that despotism, more despicabe than ever cursed Russia in the highest state of its sa- wish rule, is it not well to pause and ask our selves, whiher we are tending, and how long this state of things shall continue? It is a mat ter which concerns all. It strikes at OUT person al safety. Shall we be sluggards in such a mat ter? Shall we, by our silence and by our inac- tivity, allow traitors to undermine the founda- tions of society, by the medication of their crm inal sentiments? If not, we have duty to per form-a personal duty, coming directly home to the conscience of each one of us. Shall we do this duty thus forced upon us? This is not a land where traitorous sentiments should be tole rated, because they strike at the continuance of our peace and security They give aid and con- fort to damnable-a hot-seething rebellion. They stir up the passions of men. We love our country too well to see it broken asunder through the spread of traitorous sentiments. We love it too well to mock at the cries and groans of those who may bite the dust in its defence; and we say again, though traitors may strut about in our midst, with bitter, hcllish hate upon their lips, the safety of the community will in process of timc wurk out its own corrective.

A MEfIked Warning.

.
 The excitements in patriotic old Goshen, the tearing doun of the emblsm of treasonb and the binding ovar of tho chief traitor to keep tne peace, Of which ws give an extended account n our Iccaa column, if productive of any nn'ot.a' nate feeling, is thrice fortunate in this. tells ssuitors that they cannot raise the emblem ana in sirn;a of rebellion with impunity, in the fee ar of our Litch6eld County hills
 It shows them the determination with which men. the most respectable and honored in the community, will not only frown upon their insid- ;ous or open treason to the government, but will, peaceably if they can, forcibly if they must, put down all misprision of treason.
 We are no advocates for mob law-but man must be careful not to incits . mob by his acts. Treason turks abroad and at home. It is here, it is evsrywbs4s Though the traitors are despica- ble in numbers, they are insidious in their plots They are fewer than were the Tories in the Rev oution, and less influential but they are not less corruptive. They must be marked. 1Hey are nsdrkedl It will not do, when our sons or our brothers or our friends are fighting the rebellious forces of the South, that we should cherish the eprous heresies and treasons in our midst. A cores pondent in this week'ss Esos1REn, opens this matter fully
 Palmer raised a Rebel Flag in Goshen, on the plea that he had right to put what flag he pleased on his own property" He had no such right-and the flag was taken down, notwith- standing the oaths and threats to do damage to any who should modest it.
 Let traitors and sympathizers with traitors, everywhere in Litchfeld County take warning from Goshen. Open treason will not be suffered to exist here.
