Aug. l6, 1860, to Aug. 10, 1851, took
place last week at Williamsport. Rev,
THOMPSON MITCHELL, A. NJ, President

Ladies and lS5 young Gentlemen, making

deeply interesting, and the Students acquit
themselves with much credit, evincing the

pleased to learn is in healthy and -four

Cameron VS.. Curtin.

Between two stools our three months
volunteers seem quite likely to come to the
ground. They write to the Secretary of
War to say that ther are barefooted and
more or less naked that they would like
to be able to leave their tents in daylight
without infringing the laws Of decency, etc.
Mr.. CAMERON replies that the United
States cannot supply the three months
volunteers with clothing, and refers them
to Gov, CURTIN. That functionary makes
answer Fellow citizens, have not al
ready given you complete outfit of shoddy
and pine shaving shoes ? If your shoes
did not last three days, reflect that my
proteges have made a handsome thing of
it, If your trowsers have dropped to rags,
at once consider that my contractors could
not make cent per cent. and furnish you
with a respectable article. If your clothes
are not well lined, their pockets are. II
you are not well shod, you are well shod.
dcd-so be satisfied.
Our columns, on Tuesday, contained a
most melancholy letter from Federal Hill,
and its statements are supported by other
information. We are told by friend, who
has relative amongst the troops there,
that his clothes were in rags three days
after being put on-that he had eaten no
meat, none fit to cat having been served
out, ETC., etc. If Mr.. CAMERON refers to
Governor CURTIN respecting clothes, Gov.
CURTIN may refer back to Mr.. CAMERON,
respecting such abominable rations-Ar-

From the Chambcrsburp JaIl
Swear Him In.

We insist upon it that Horace Gryel!
should be compelled to take the oatl d
allegiance to the United States, or else r.
move himself and his old white coat al.
ali his personal effects, including his pes
tiferous newspaper, out of the limits Of
country covered by the Star Spangled Bal'
ncr. As loyal citizen of the Unit
States, and faithful adherent to tL
glorious stars and stripes, we demand tbs
the government compel Greeley to lcaI
or to take the oath of allegiance at one
Our reason for making this demand is b.
cause Greeley published the followiD:
slandcrous, disloyal and traitorous assaa
on our flag in the Tribune in 1851, al.
to this day he has never retracted it. V
say again, let Greeley be sworn in or Il
him be run out-one or the other.

ing country in Virginia setting forth that
nothing but the want of arms prevents the
gallant band cf traitors under his COM
mand from cutting their way clear to the
North Pole. He therefore calls on all per-
sons who have arms to place the same at

FLOYD reminds us of the Millerite
preacher in PAULDINGs humorous story
about "The End of the World" When
the final Everlasting smash came on, and
the atmosphere grew suggcstively as we'll
as oppressively hot, that worthy prelate
suddenly discovered, to his great constar-
nation, that he had labored so assiduously
for the salvation of other mems souls as
to have entirely neglected his own. 1t
turns out that FLOYD, when Secretary of
War, was so intensely absorbed in stealing
guns for other parts of the South, that he
forgot to steal any for his own section of

The White Labor Association Of
Wilkes-Barre.

A call having been posted, meeting
was held at Flynn's Hall, on Saturday
evening, 1st ult., for the purpose of orga
nizing White Labor Association. The
hall was donscly crowded, and many were
unable to gain admittance. The meeting
was organized by choosing Joseph L. Van.
lcer as President and John Louder
Richard IIutchins, Bella Crane, Jane.
Lambert, Patrick McGrath, ,Thos. Shields,
Michael Taylor, Gilman Converse and
Christian Schleppy as Vice-prcsdents
and c. +. Bowman and Harry uakcs as
Secretaries.
The President then stated that ALTHOUGH
the civil war had hardly commenced, thou.
sands of southern negroes were already
escaping into our State that, at the prs.
ent tune, wages had been necessarily re-
duced and additional labor was not need
cd that the subject was in all respect,
one of immediate and paramount impor-
tance and that we should express our
views fully and clearly.
The meeting was addressed by Dr..
Hakcs, c. +. Bowman, James Lambert
and L. B. Chase No injustice or persccu-
ton towards our resident blacks was sur
gcsted or meant in all that was said and
done, but the policy of making our Stat
the receptacle for all the runaway vicious
improvident and helpless negroes of tue
South, at time when our own population
are suffering, was greatly doubted and
strongly opposed.
The following resolutions were una1-
mously adopted;
WHEREAS, Our present civil war ln
been eagerly sought and is now being u,cl
by abolitionsts as fit opportunity to per.
suade southern slaves to rebel and escape.
and multitudes are now settling in Penn
sylvania; and WHEREAS, This is againN
the present interest and future welfare Of
our people, violates the Federal Con.ttu-
ton, complicates and aggravates our iut.,,
State difficulties and leads to disunioa
therefore
ReSo'ved, That we oppose and dcnounc:
all attempts to throw southern slaves 0;
free blacks upon the soil of Pennsylvania
and their settlement amongst u, az tni,
ing to destroy the remuneration and r.
spcctability of white labor, and to fill t4
land with servile paupers.
Resolucd, That we will support no mm
for either branch of our Legislature wh1
will not pledge himself to vote for repeal
of the so-caled "Personal Liberty Bill,
which now invites and defends the iugitiy
slaves and also for the passage of l,v
against the settlement of additional negro.
in our State.
ReSolred, That we will vote for no mt
for any office whatever, who dcsiresc
grant 10 negroes the rights of citizenshiI
as has been done in Massachusetts,, OLn
New York and other States.
ReSolred, That these proceedings L

E1~ Our attention has been called to a
communication in the North'd Co. Demo

of the prolific pen of the author. As we

contempt it deserves. We control our own
paper and when we want any assistance
we will send for genileman.- .-D1ilionian.
We also control our own paper, neigh-

amongst GENTLEMEN, you may run along
with the "JackasSes." When you again

want assistance in that line, call upon your

WE see by hand bills that one hundred
recruits are wanted to fill the Zouave Ar
tillery Regiment under command of Col.
James Brady and Charles Campbell, now
in Camp Curtin, at Harrisburg. Captain
Mathews and Lieutenant Ricketts,, arc in
this section at present for the purpose of
recruiting men. Recruits in and about
this place, will report themselves to Lieut..
r. B. Ricketts,, at the Exchange HOTEL
The men will be sworn and mustered into
service under the State requisition for
three years or during the war. 1t is much
more desirable to join a light artillery
company, than Infantry. The amount of
labor to be performed by artillery men differ
very materially from that required of the
Infantry soldier-having no mUsket, he
is not required to do general g~ard svvice,
so while detachments of the Infantry are
pacing back and forth, at their posts,
through the long weary nig ght, the artillery
men are sleeping quietly in their quarters.
Therefore we should very much prefer
joining an artillery company.-Stw.

A Just Disc rimination.

A late number OF the New York Tn.

thing supporting the Administration quite
another. Many will fight for the one and
directly vote against the other, as they
have perfect right to do. 1t is by no
means the special duty nor the special in.
tcrest of Republicans to maintain the
Union" We agree with a cotemporary
which says that it is something of a relief
to see such doctrine as this announced in
the leading Republican organ of the coun.
try, particularly as some of the lesser lights
have presumed to arraign every man for
treason who does not 20 the full length Of
upholding this Administration in all its
acts, constitutional and unconstitutional
1t is grievous mistake to infer that be.
cause Democrats have shouldcrcd their
muskets and volunteered in the army to
assist in the grand work of crushing re-
bellion and maintaining the integrity of
the nation, that they have abandoned their
principles, and are ready to commend
every unconstitutional act that the Admin
istration chooses to perpetrate in the name
of the Union. While liberty to protest yet
remains they will not do this. We also re.
gard it as an evidence of unoxamplcd
frankness for the Tribune to admit that
it is neither the special duty nor the special
interest of the Republican party to main.
tain the Union, for not longer ago than
last winter the Tribune violently opposed
every effort for the preservation of the
Union, and took the position that it was
better for fifty Unions to break than for the
Chicago platform to be abandoned.
