In order to let our readers know what
sentiments are being promulgated in these
times by the Abolition State Organ-'ho
Telegrdph-we procure the
following extracts from its issue OF the 9th
italics, capitals, &c., as we ma
them:
"Cidzens of Harrisburg citizens OF
Pennsylvania this war is at your doors
the enemy is on your threshholds-the
torch CLEANS on your paths, and the knife
is at your throats. Awake arise ! ana
in the name of all that is dear and sacred,
let not your lethargy longer blind you to
the danger by which you arc surrounded
Begin at once, or your homes, your wives
and YOUR children will be consumed and
laughte before your eyes, as the hemp
is around your own nccks, and traitor
mob about to howl your soul into eterm-
tv. We must take this matter into our
own heads, in our own midst, noW, NOW
THIS INSTANT, or all may be lost, and
our armies in the Geld may find lire IN
the rear more terrible than that which
they arc marching to meet in the van.-
We must Compel every man, at least to
use loyal language
This is o bold invocation for mob law,
and in culcates sentiments, outrageous at
any time, but doubtly so at the present.
The readers should bear in mind thai
the ''traitors" referred to by the 1eIegr0P@
are the Democrats of Pennsylvania.
ave huUe q igM 10 insist that no man
questions Me motaUeS or crttic1Se the Pid7S
Of the goveyumem 10 crush redtHaon.
TAose qcho insist ON The liberty Of speech
10 inUeigh against lie government, mahe
that Gjerty Il HcentiouS"eSs Of language
alike an insult to p0triJtlSm 0nd da"-
ger to the counry."
The italics are ours:
The doctrines advocated here arc of the
old English stamp, that "the King can do
no wrong,' and hence unworthy of the
age we live in.
"Thcrc must be no hesitation about
dealing with our enemies, wethcr they show
themselves on the streets of Harrisburg,
are seen skulking in the swamps of the
Chickahominy, or are caught on our lines
along the James river. We repeat again,
there is no difference in dealing with tral
tors, wherever they ere discovered, and
thus to the mornful cry Of, "Watchman,
what of the night ~ we answer. lD1n'eot-
ale an6 eiernd dcatb TO aU trastOTS."
This is very significant, when we know
the fact, that the editors and proprietors of
the PDhiot f. U"ion, were arrested by
the military authorities, the next day and
locked up in prison at Washington But
to still further illustrate the dcmoniac
appetite Of the Robespierric editor Of the
Telegraph, we produce an article pub
lishcd in that sheet on the 9TH inst, in the
following significant language:
a SUBsTITUTE.-The portrait OF ez-
Governor Seymour, of Connecticut, has
been taken down from the State House at
Hartford. The Albany Journa' suggests
that Seymour be hung pin place of it.
We suggst that the same proceedings
be carried out with the Bigler portrait and
Bigler himself, in the Executive chamber
of this State. No man in Dixie contribu
ted more to the in tial steps Of rebellion
than Bigler, and such dealing with his
picture and his person would be fitting
tribute to the loyal sentiments oft Com
monwealth. Harrisburg IelcSroph.
Call ye this freedom of the press !Com
ment is unnecessary.
