the whI.ky rebellion


We think every man, not absolutely mono
maniac on the subject Of slavery, will SEQ at q
glance the propriety and Justice of the compaEr
isOn in the following short and pi.hy extract
which we make from an article in.the Harris
burg, Pa, Patriot and Union: II. ra.ass..
We had rebellion once in PepnsylVania. II
extended over Q number Of Western counties.
Il was caused by whisky, or more properly
speaking q tax upon whisky. Washington sum-
moped an army and marched westward, but be-
fore he reached the scene of the revolt, the reb-
els dispersed, and the rebellion came to an end
The President was satisfied with this result
He did not say, "this rebellion was caused by
whisky, and we cannot hope for peace while
there Is gallon Of whisky distilled in Peunsyl-
vanis." He did, mot endeavor to remove the
cause by demolishing ell the distlleries in Penn
sylvania. He did not say that while whisky con-
tinued to be distilled there was reason to antic-
ipate periodical febellions. His business was to
enforce the laws, He did that promptly and
and considered the work finished.
Now whisky was undenlsbly q cause of this
rebellion. Had there been no whisky there
would have been no rebellion. Whisky was as
much the cause Of that rebellion as elavery is
Of this. We have never had another rebellion
on account Of whisky, and when this rebellion Is
put down We will never have another rebellion
on account of slavery, g n .aJGlTP

SANITARY IMPRovRaENrs At CAMP CHASE
Within the past six or seven weeks, great i'm
provements have been made in the sanitary
condition of Camp Chase. There are DOW
three hospitals thoroughly ventilated. A dry
house and matron's room have been erected
near the Post Hospital, The trenches have
been cleaned out and deepened, and the rubbish
removed from the vicinity Of The hospitals
A kitchen, stove and wardrobe have been added
to the Prison Hospital. All the premises con-
nected with the hospitals are undergoing a
thor ough renovation and whitewashing. The
different wards and beds present a cleanly, neat
and healIhiul aspect. The sick are attended
by good and competent nurses, and personal
cleanliness Is rigidly enforced In every case.
Plank walks have been laid throughout the
camp This Is indeed an Improvement that was
greatly needed, aud is appreciated BY al con-
nected with the post. gi 3 ~
The sick In the several hospitals now number
about one hundred. They are all well cared
for, and seem fully to appreciate the careful
services Of the Post Surgeon, the assis.ants and
attendants. .s,a rs vfn h
We might mention numerous other improve
pents Of a sanitary character that have been
recently made at Camp Chase. But those we
have alluded to are sufficient TO show that

A destruction as sudden as that which fell

Governor Morgan, all the State officerp, and all
the members Of the Legislature, and yet the
State of New York would continue to be. One
half or nine-tenths OF the people might be car

would constitute the State Of New York. Nay,
foreign conquest might disperse the Govern
ment at Albany, and prevent the people from
assembling in any mode for considerable time,
and yet the State Of New York would revive as
soon as the corqueror withdrew. Nothing short
Of perpetual sub;ugatiop, or the entire merger
