FREEDOM-WHATH HAS IT LOSTr

The friends of freedom have nothing to de-
plore when contemplating the result of the late
election in this state. Wherever they have
been defeated in Congressional district, it
has been the means, Of calling, out the real
sentiments of our opponents, who rejoice like.
demons that they were able to strike down the
friends of freedom. The very fact that this
disposition has been thus called out, proves all
that we have ever asserted on the subject of
northern sympathy with treason-because the
victory which our opponents sing, is claimed
in every instance as a victory against the gov
ernment, as triumph over the administration,
and thus of course as a blow for the aid and
benefit OF lebeitraitors. If it is not for this, it
is a result barren of all other influences and
effects; because the issue clearly presented to
the people was for or against the government.
Whether the acts of the President, as he repre-
sents that government, were entitled TO support
-wether the laws passed by Congress should
be entorced-or whether both Congress and
the President must be repudiated. The Mob
ocracy stand upon the issue of reputation.
They hold TO the revolutionary or rebcllious
doctrines which give force and vitality to the
sylvania which Frank Hughes led into politi-
cal battle would force Abraham Lincoln
from the Presidency, Andrew &. Curtin
from the Gubernatorial chair, if they thought
| they had the physical force to accomplish
such an act. And from this party, the friends
Of freedom may ever expect the harshest and
most unreasonable opposition. Like the guer-
rillas of Mexico, the Mobocracy of the free
states are determined hereafter to array them
selves on the side of oppression and slavery,
against law and order, that the spirit OF dis
cord and faction may prevail here as it now
RACES among our ill-fated neighbors, Mexico.
With the Mobocracy it is heresy to render
labor free; to place it on an equality with
capital. Whether that effort is made by the
restoration of slavery or the protection Of
white labor from the competion OF the pauper
of Europe, it is still heresy and wrong; a
fauatieisln and crime.
But in the face of all this, the friends of
freedom have no reason to despair or despond.
In battling for our principles, We have no re-
venges to crafty or resentments to serve. The
case is different with our opponents. When
they fail, their aims of personal ambition are
postrated-their prospects of self Haggrandize-
ment fail-their anger and passions are arrous-'
ed, and of course their phrensy and hate are
stimulated to excess, Men of principle gather
courage from triumph. This is just the case
between the friends and the enemies of free
dom., We have no time for resentment or
revenge. Our country is still In danger. Let
this engage our earnest labors--let this stimu-
late our exertion, and let this inspire us with
courage for the present and hope for the fu-
ture. Freedom is worth suffering for.E al

DEFAcED POSTAGE STAMps.-The use of cam
celed postage stamps for currency, and for
stamping letters, has excited eonsiderab BILE at
tentIon. The Department at Washington has
determined to use every exertion to detect
this mean species of fraud, and in a circular
letter to Postmasters throughout the country,
the Assistant Postmaster General says: Please
eau Sc most careful examination to be made of
letters deposited in your office, and send me
specially all suspected cases, so that the writer's
may be discovered or, if in any case you
have means to know the writer, without hav-
ing the letter opened here, you will proceed
at once to aproper investigation. The Post
master General is anxious to make some pub
lie examples under this law, if violations oc-
cur apprehended, strong temptation being
offered by the extensive use of ordinary post
age stamps as currency.
As the improper use of postage stamps is a
felony under the law OF the United States, and
the punishment of the crime is very heavy,
those practising it would do we'll to hesitate
before incurring so serious responsibility for
SO small profit.

A NEW INTERNAL MACHINE, claimed to be
adequate for the destru ction of iron clad ves-
sells, is undergoing Government tests in the
Royal dockyard of Copenhagen. The appara-
tus, which is extremely simple, and costs but
little, consists of glass reservoir filed with
powder, floating at a certain depth, where, by
very simple chemical means, it produces an
explosion. In the first experiment, when loa-
ded with very small charge, the effect was
amazing. The framework of the gunboat used
to heighth of eighty or one hundred feet.
On a second trial the explosion threw up a
column of water one hundred feet high, and
the shock was telt at a considerable distance.

THE SOLDIERS MAIL.-The soldiers mail in
Washington is an institution. Upon the ar
rival of each mail, the packages of soldiers
letters are assorted into boxes by States, and
the cavalry and artillery into separate boxes.
These letters are taken by another party, and
assorted into regimental and company boxes,
the company boxes being only for cavalry and
artillery. These regimental boxes are arrang-
ed in separate State cases, the Pennsylvania
case already having nearly one aundred and
fifty boxes. When the whole of each mail has
been thus assorted, the letters in each box are
put into bags and labelled. 1t is now either
called for at the Office by regimental or divis-
ion mail carriers or forwarded to them.

INCREASE OF THE PosrAL SERvICE.-In no
one branch of the government, not directly
engaged in thegovernment, not directly en-
gagged in the operations of the war, has the in
crease of business been greater than in the
Post Office Department. Every Office in the
land has felt this increase to greater or less
degree. This is admitted by all who are IA
rniliar with the postal business of the country.
In Harrisburg, for instance, the number of
letters that went through, the Post Office, du.
ring the quarter ending Sept. 80, 1862, amoun-
ted to l7s, ,440, being 2,490. in excess of any
quarter during the present management of the
the office, and of course much larger ir num-
ber than in the same length of time of any
other postmaster. This increase of, business
requires not only additional force, bnt iu-s
creased vigilance. ,,,...s-v ~,rt .s-.a

syA The Memphis Avalanche, which
like many other papers and public men,
have been constantly luIling the people into
