The PRocLAMArloN.-The Rush
vile Jacksonian says of this document:
Nowhere in the constitution is the
power delegated to the President or to
Congress, or to both, to abolish slavery
in the States where it exists. No man
but a crazy fanatic of the most ultra
and dangerous Abolition school, has ev-
er set up such a claim. Washington,
Jefferson, Madison, and Adams, Clay,
Webster, Fillmore, nay, even Mr.. Lin
coin himself have time and again pro-
claimed that no such authority was dele
gated to any power save the States
themselves in which slavery existed.
AS early as March, 1870, Congress
passed the following resolution
'Resolved, That Congress has no
authority to interfere in the emancipa-
ton of slavery, or in the treatment Of
them in any of the States /; it remain
ing with the several States ALONE to
provide rules and regulations therein,
which humanity and true policy may
require" a's

THE NEWS.

| AA ~ IL w NJ
The rebel cavalry which made the raid
into Chambersburg have succeeded in
recrossing into Virginia. A Federal
force arrived just as the rear-guard had
effected a passage, and there was an
interchange Of artillery firing but no
material damage was done to either
side. Stuart seized about thousand
horses during his expedition. There
are reports that column Of 10000
rebels made their appearance in Frank
lin county, Pa, on Sunday night,
marching for the Pennsylvania Rail-
road. Little if any credit is given to
the story.
The statement is made that peremp-
tory orders have been issued for an i'm
portant movement of the army of the
Potomac within the next week or ten
days. There are anticipations that the
enemy will soon make movement in
force towards Centerville, and prepar-
atoms have been made to meet it.
Gen. Boyle, commanding at Louis
vile, telegrarhs that our loss in the
battle of Perryville, on Wednesday,
was from 1900 to 2,OOO,-that of the
enemy being much larger.
The latest rumor at Washington is,
that Mcclellan is to be sent to the
West; that Hooker will take command
Of the army of the Potomac; and that
Secretary Stanton will be succeeded
by Gen. Banks.
Southwestern Missouri is clear of
rebels, Gen. Schofeld having driven
them into Arkansas. The Federal
army is now at Cassvllle.
The rebel raid into Pennsylvania was
an occurrence almost impossible to be
prevented, the Potomac being fordable
in consequence Of a low stage of water
at a large number of points. Prompt
measures were taken by Gen. McClel-
len to cut of Stuart's retreat; but,
through the fault of some subordinate
officers, he made his escape. Gen.
Pleasanton, however, very nearly sue
cceded in catching him before he could
make his exit from Maryland, tho
marches of both parties being consid
ered the most extraordinary on record.
The report that forward movement
of the Army of the Potomac is about to
be made is confirmed by correspondence
from Harpcr's Ferry. The rebels are
reported to nave 100000 troops be
tween Cord onsville and Winchester.
Bragg's army evacuated Camp Dick
Robinson on Monday, destroying the
fortifcations, and are now in full
retreat towards Lancaster, falling back
to Cumberland Gap as their last hope
of safety.
We have European advices to the
9Th inst, by the steamer Asia. The
rebel iron clad steamer 200 has captur-
ell eleven Federal merchant vessels.
A Paris paper in.;mates that a speedy
recognition of the Southern Confelcra-
cy by England and France is very
probable. Garibaldi and his followers
are about to be amnestied.

will be in session at the Court House.
The calander will be very light, prob
ably less than at any term Of court
since the county was organized. From
the Fayette Go Pioneer, we lear n
that the term of court in that County
was adjourned for the reason that there
were no Attorneys. The Federal
Congress passed law requiring them
to pay license often dollars, but there
being no person to receive the money
they are unable to comply with the
law. Since putting the foregoing i'll

the State Fair was the most successful

receipts were about $4,000. The am
cunt Of premiums about $4,000. The
expenses about 81, 200, and the bal
ance in the treasury will be nearly or
quite $1,000. The only time the re.
ceipts of the Fair exceeded $4,000 was
at Muscatine in 1857. Last year, al

GoLD.-Some one has said that
money land nothing is money but
gold, silver, and "copper" is the root Of
al evil" Ifzhis he 50, there is little
reason why the people Of Iowa should
be radically bad. But the brokers at
the east seem bent on utterly dem ,ral-
izing their population, having previous
ly sent their home missionaries west
ward. Some of these brokers offer
$1,29 for gold. This is a sure indi-
cation that paper money is only worth
II cents on the dollar. Nevertheless
Hammerslough Bros, McGregor, still
continue to sell the choicest kind of
clothing at gold prices, and take paper
money in payment. Look for the red

having received either their clothing
or pay, have become tired of the occu-
patton, and deserted. A majority of
the number have advocated mob law
