/ For the preservation of our national life,
! all things Should be subordinated 1t is the
first, highest noblest duty of the citizen
| 1t is his protection IN person, property, and
all civil and religious privileges, and for Its
perpetuity IN form and power, he owes all
| his efforts, his influence, his means, and his
| life. To compromise with treason, would
| be to give it renewed existence, and enable
1t again to plunge US into another oauseless
| war.
In the destruction of the military power
of the rebellion is alone the hope Of peace. (;
| for while armed rebels march over the SOIL
of any State, no real freedom can prevail,
and no governmental authority, consistent
with the genius of our free institutions, can
properly operate.
The people of every State are entitled I'M
der the Constitution to the protection OF the
| Government, and to give that protection
fully and fairly, rebellion must be disarmed
and trodden in the dust. By these means,
and these alone, can we have enduring union,
prosperity and peace. As IN the past, L
will in the future, In faithful obedience to
the oath have taken, spare no means, with
hold no power which can strengthen the
| Government in this conflict. To the meas
ures of the citizens chosen to administer the
| National Government adopted to promote
our great cause, will give nay cordial ap-
proval and earnest cooperation. 1t is the
cause of constitutional liberty and law.
Powers which are essential TO our common
safety should now be wisely and fearlessly
administered, and that Executive would be
faithless, and held guilty before the werld
who should fail to WELD the might of the
Government for its own preservation The
details Of my views on the measures which
| recommended are contained in my recent
annual message, and need not here be re-
peated.
/ beg to return to the people of my native
State my hearty thanks for their untaltering
support and continued confidence. They
have sustained me amid many trying hours
Of official embarrassment. Among all these
people, to none am | more indebted than to
the soldiers Of Pennsylvania, and | here
pledge to those brave men my untlring ex-
ertions in their behalf and most anxious eff
forts for their future welfare, and | recon-
mend here, as / have frequently done be-
fore, those dependant upon them, to the
fostering care Of the State.
cannot close this address without an
earnest prayer to the Most High that He
will preserve, protect and guard our beloved
country guiding with divine Power, and
wisdom, our Government, State and Ma
tional, and | appeal to my fellow citizens,
Hcie anu eloSN llcGe' III OuI cAlSCiliS eHlUdT-
easements, to lay aside all partisan feelings
and unite in hearty and earnest effort to
support the common cause which involves
the welfare of us ALL
Gentlemen of the Senate and House of
Representatives, pray to you in Gods
name, let u.s. in this era in the history of the
world, set an example of uaity and concord
in the support Of ali measures for the pres
ervation of this great Republic.

Twenty-Five hundred bodies have been
counted out from the ruins, and it is sup
posed many were burned entirely up The
prevailing opinion is the number of lives
lost will reach twenty-five hundred. The
count and names collected to date amount to
some fifteen hundred Many families have
lost the entire female members-six, seven,
eight and nine from one family All those
that could not be recognized by theirsurviv-

In answer TO letter from the Hon G..

acceptance of the position of Senator from

that he is compelled at present, by solemn
convictions of duty, to decline accepting any

sing to represent that State His unselfsh
motives, he states, might be impugned, but
he nevertheless belives the time not far dis
tant when he may be able to aid in healing
the bitter anlmoslties of the two sections.
He charges the leaders of the Rebellion as
having, with miscalculation upon miScalcu-
lation, and blunder upon blunder," brought
ruin and destruction upon the ''old Mother
of States, and closes by saying that nei
ther war, nor want, nor suffering can last
forever, and that when the proper time ar
rives he believes he may be instrumental in
the work of Union and reconciliation. In
conversation with Mr. Boris, he stated that
never for single instant during this war,
has doubted the final result HIS opinion

BLACK EYES AND BLUE.

Black eyes most dazzle IN hall
Blue eyes most please at evening fall.
The black conquest soonest gain;
The blue conquest most retain.
The black bespeak lively heart,
Whose soft emotions soon depart;
The blue steadier fame betray,
That burns and lives beyond day.
That black may features best disclose
In blue may feelings all repose.
Then let each reign without control
The black all MISD-the blue all SOUL!
