The formidable artillery you now have,

move and accomplish certain results. /
held you back, that you might give the
death blow to the rebellion that has dis
tracted this once happy country. The pa
tionce you have shown, and your conf
dcnco in your general, are worth dozen
victories.
These preliminary results are now ac-
complished. feel that the patient abors
Of many months have produced their fruit
The Army of the Potomac is now a real
army-magnifcent in material, admirable
in discipline and instruction, exeellently
equipped and armed. Your commanders
are all that l could wish.
The moment for action has arrived, and
know that | can trust in you to save
eur country. AS l ride through your
ranks, l see in your faces the sure prestige
of victory; L feel that you will do what
overe l ask ofyou
The period of inaction has passed. /
will bring you face to face with the reb-
els, and only pray that God may defend
the right
In whatever direction you may move
however strange my actions may appear
to you--ever bear in mind that my fate is
linked with yours land that all 1 do is to
bring you where know you wish to be
on the decisive battle field. 1t is my bus
iness to place you there. am to watch
over you as a parent over his children, and
you know that your General loves you
from the depths of his heart.
1t shall be my care, as it has ever been
to gain success with the least possible loss
but l know that, ifit is necessary, you will
willingly follow me to our graves for our
righteous cause.
God smiles upon us. Victory attends
US. Yet 1 would not have you to thinl
that our aim is to be attained without {
manly struggle. l will not disguise i
from you. You have brave foes to en-
counter-foemer well worthy of the steel
that you will use SO we'll. l shall demand
Of you great, heroic exertions- rapid anc
long marches--desperate combats -priva
tions, perhaps. We will share all thes
together, and when this sad war is owe
we will all return to our homes, and fee
that we can ask no higher honor than th'
proud consciousness that we belonged t

Wilmot,s Letter.

Read the able and noble letter Of Hon,
d. Wilmot to the great New York meeting
published in another column No better,
abler no truer man sits in the United States
Senate, We are glad to see that his health
is improving - Col. co. Republican.
In that letter Wilmot says: "I heartily
approve Of the objects of the meeting as set
forth in the call"
Now one of the objects of the meeting
was to declare that certain States had been
recently overturned and wholly subverted
as members of the Federal Union" upon
which proposition the "call" was based
Now with that proposition Wilmot agrees
the States he thinks are out of the Union
and are to be re.admitted when Com ress
sees ft-that they are no longer of the
United States, but have become territories,
and that we are absolved from all consti.
tutional obligations to them.
Against Davy and the Doctor we will
quote the republican authority of Post
Master General Blair, who says, in let.
ter sent to the same "great New York
meeting"
"This is, in substance, what the confedo.
rates themselves claim, and the fact that
secession IS maintained By the authors of
tbs call, for different purpose, does not
make it more constitutional, or prevent
them from bring actual ALTERS anil d5ettors
Of the cogfec5era.eS."
So Davy is "secessionist" and an "ai.
der and abettor of the confederates," and
Dr. John is holding his hat. There's a
picture fer you, drawn by authority How
very unfortunate the DR.. is in his pets.-

sGy- Col. LEVI L. TATE, editor of the
Columbia Democrat, at Bloomsbury, and
a member of the present Legislature, paid
our town visit on Saturday week, and ,
during his stay, honored the Compiler es-
establishment with call. Severe indispo.
sition prevented US from paying him that
attention which he deserves at the hands
of every Democrat, being himself veteran
in the cause, always true as steel, never
turning to the right or left from the strict
line of duty but should he be able to
come again, we hope he will do SO, when
all amends shall be made. A good Dem
ocratic Editor and good Democratic
Legislator, Col. Tate may be classed among
the States most useful citizens. May We
always have plenty such, particularly il
times Of dishonesty and fanaticism, Ek'
the present. Gettys5urg Compiler.

The Tonnage-Tax Question.

The House of Representatives, at Har-
Iisburg, has passed bill to repeal the act
Of last session which repealed the Tonnage.
Tax upon the Pennsylvania Railroad Com.
pany. The effect fthis bill, if it becomes
law, will be to restore the taxes already
diverted from the Treasury, and to leave
the corporation subject to taxation upon
tonnage in future, as stipulated in its char
ter or act of incorporation. This just
measure passed the House, after full de-
bate, by vote Of 70 to % (morc than two
thirds in its favor, and has been sent to
the Senate for its consideration and action.
What will be its fortune in that body is
uncertain : Nor is it known whether the
Governor will sign the bill if sent to him
for his approval.
The heavy vote in favor OF this bill in
the House correctly represents public
opinion in the State, and is encouraging
10 all who desire that Justice and honesty
ehai control the action Of the State Gov
ernment. N accordance, with public ex~
pectation, and from their own convictions
Of dety, tkc two Rel prssentatiyes from this
3ts.giet supported the bill throughout all
vac proceedings upon it, and recorded
-eheiI votes in its favor upon final passage.
It is TO Oe hoped that Mr.. Bound, our
Senator, will also act wi due fidelity to
ais constituents by supporting the bill

FUNERAL OF Rev. ISAIAH BAIL
The funeral of Rev. l. BAIL, of this place,
on Sunday morning last, was the largest
we have ever witnessed. We did not have
the pleasure of an acquaintance with the
deceased, bu learn that he was of genial
disposition and loved and respected by all
who knew him. The Bloomsbury Rfpub.
hcGn says everybody. .knewssand liked"par-
son BAIL" It is doubtful whether there
is clergyman in the State who has married
so many couple as he. We understand
that the number exceed nineteen huudred
some weeks before his death. Thus over
thirty. eight hundred persons can date the
period of their happiness or---we won't
say it, for who that is married isn't hap
py?-from the time they stood up before
Parson BAIL We believe it is generally
admitted that there never were SO many
people in Berwick, at one time, before
A special train brought large number
from Danville, Catawissa, Bloomsburg,
and other points on the route. The Odd
Fellows and the Masonic fraternity of
which Societies he was valued and
worthy member, turned QUO in procession,
The burial ceremonies were conducted by
Chris. Knapp, of Bloomsburg, in accord
anee with the Masonic ritual. Impressive
sermons were delivered, both in German
and English by Revs. Wagner, of Con,

Where they came from and sohat they

showing tho State Of which each member
of the Legislature, is native, and his
trade, profession or occupation. We
would give the age also, but we find that
one hundred and thirty men display quite
as much vanity about telling their ages, as
the same number of unmarried ladies Of
uncertain age would do. To crafty this
vanity we must disappoint the curious on
this point

sG- The Editor of the Pennsylvania

of his abuse, for our article of last week in
review Of the recent special message of the
President ,and concludes that we should be

ahis latter point, although modesty would
have prevented US from originating the sug-
gestion Were we consulted We should ad-
wise an utter and lasting abandonment by
that Cabinet of all Republican heresies,
and substitution by it, in practice, of the
principles Of the Constitution of the United
States in place of the dogmas of the Chi

complete abandonment of northern Sec

stltutionality Of buying up, exporting and
5upperting negroes, at the expense of the
United States. We are aware that con.
s.itutional principles are not in much fa>
yor, under Republican rule, either at Har-
risburg or Washington, and that the TEL

the State and Federal Governments, is not
likely to be critical upon its employers,

on its observance, and to point out and de.
2ounce any proposed departure from it in
