What Peace Democrats Want.

The eopperheads think the rebels
were justifable ia trying to destroy the
Union because Abraham Lincoln was
elected President in 1860, and now they
want their brethren to lay down their
arms and return to the Union, on condi-
ton that the Federal government as
sumo the national debt which they have
incurred in their efforts to destroy it,
and that the constitution. and slave law
be re-establsbed 'as they were There
is no doubt that if our Peace Democracy
should elect President in November
their first movement would be to beg
their 'erring brethren of the South to
return to the Union on these humiliatiug
terms. Past experience has proved
that our Northern dough>faces glory in
nothing SO much as bowling down before
the naughty Southern lords of the lash.
To-day they feel more the sacredness of
rebel debt than for that of our govern
ment. If the former cannot be assumed,
they want the latter repudiated.
These Peace democrats are forever
prating about the Union as il was" In
the name of common sense we ask, why
did not their Southern friends stay in
the Union as it was +? Mr.. Lincoln's
election did not change the constitution
as it was, or the Union as it was This
is the cry they love most Of all, and isl
repeated hundreds Of times in every
copperhead journal in The North-andI
yet it is the very thing the rebels seek
TO destroy forever. Before the war they
had the fugitive slave law, and a MAORI
ty in the U. S. Senate. This wicked
law virtually made every Northern free
man slave-catcher, an p pellati n
which even southern slave owners would
deem dishonorable " hen applied to
themselves. No safer guarantees for sla~
very could be desired than then existed.
But their pride was so great, and their
hatred TO the Yankees SO intense that
in seeding they have abandoned the
"Union as il was."

a. We commend the following, from
the Arqus, to the attention of our read
ers, that they may see how publishers
have to suffer these times. Our paper
costs us fully $40 per week, and we
must raise the price to $2,0 90 soon. We
take subscriptions only to January lst,
1865, in anticipation of raising then if
not before.
white paper, Of which we use about
240 pounds per week, now costs 20
cents pound, against 10 cents ere the
initiation of prices began, printing ink is
double, type nearly SO, and SO on. The
first of August the New York papers
went up from 8 to 5 cents each, ard at
the same time the Boston papers in
creased their rates. All the Massachu-
setts papers have raised their price 90
cents per annum, and the New Hamp-
shire publishers have agreed to. All
Vermont papers are now $500 per an
mum, and some of them $3.50 and $500.
The necessity for this is to be regretted,
but it exists, and must be met There
is no good reason whatever why the
prices of newspapers, advertising, and
job printing, should not advance with
other articles. That they will the peo-
pie expect. and are prepared to meet it.
They are getting higher prices for their
Produce of all kinds has
more than doubled within years, and
10 reasonable person will object to an
advance Of at least so per cent. on his
,aper."

Another Rebel Raid.

About 800 rebels, mostly mounted
infantry, have again entered Pennsylva>
MIA early Saturday morning. The citi
gems had notice of their coming, and had
removed most Of their valuables to places
of safety. Very little was done 10 check
the progress of the raiders, and on the
refusal of Chambersburgh to pay a
ransom of 100000 in gold, the rebels
set fire to and burned greater portion
of the town, rendering hundreds of per-
sons houseless and homeless, and causing
a destruction of property to the amount
of a million Of dollars.
cHAMBERsBURG, PA, BURNED BY THE
EEBELs.
Gen. McCausland was in command of
the rebel troops W b e they burned
Chambersburg. He made proclamation
demanding 100000 in gold. 1t was of
course impossible to comply, n d the
order was issued to fire the court house,
town ball and bank building. A strong
breeze communicated the flames to the
surrounding buildings. Parties of SOL
diers, having sacked the several drug and
chemical stores, manufactured turpentine
balls, which they threw in all directions,
creating as many different flames, which
soon united in one general eonaagration,
and speedily the scene became appalling
The cracking and roaring Of flames, the
shrieks of terrified women, panc-stricken
and suffering children, d pitilul ap-
peaIs of the old and helpless, formed an
Understandable of horror. Two
hundred and sixty.fve of the most valu-
able aud elegant pu b | i c and private
buildings were destroyed. t h . town
was fred at about ii o'clock Saturday
forenoon. The rebels remained u 4
long enough TO see the flames get under
proper Roadway, when the alarm was
given that Averil was approaching the
town. Instantly every freebooter was
in the saddle, and hurriedly took the ST.
Thomas road with Averiil in pursuit.

The rebels have re.captured the works

REBEL BARBARlTY.-The Cincinna-
III Commercial gives the narrative of An>
drew j. Mum, of 100th reg't, Ohio vol
unteers, who was long prisoner in the
South, and now writes from the Union
camp near Atlanta. After giving de-
tailed account of his capture and many
sufferings, be says:
"We were deprived of our watches,
money, and next morning were sent to
that hell upon earth-Bell Island
where witnessed sights and sutferings
tor months, that were horrible-awful-
positively indescribable, and chill the
blood and rend the heart with pity to
remember. Day after day | have been
forced to witness the slow, fearful death
by starvation, Of scores of our noble fell
lows, and to hear their agonizing means
and incoherent rawlings, and pleading for
something to soothe the pains of hun
ger. When they would ravingly ask
for something to save their lives, the
brutal jailers would drag them from their
couches, declaring that they would show
them bow to address gentlemen, and
then gag the poor fellows and force them
to lie down for hours under the scorch--
ing rays of the sun--and ofren when
they went to release the sufferers they
found a stiffened corpse, with sunken
eyes, glazed in death. One poor fellow,
who was almost suffocated, put his face
to the window for air, and was instantly
shot by the guard outside, his blood and
brains bespattering bis comrades in that
den of misery and horrors. A boy, for
the same offense, was shot through his
side, and fell back, forever released from
bis agony and sufferings."
Where in the history of man can we
find an instance of fendish cruelty like
that Of the traitors cruelty? Where in
the records of nations have noble, patri.
otto soldiers suffered as thousands of the
brave sons of America have suffered?

of our lads triumphed: Geary held the
hill at the end as at the beginning Of the
assault. That portion Of his army that
fell back was reformed, and in about an
hour went back into action on Williams
right.
The tremendous rebel charges spent
their force on Williams division next, on
Geary's right. This division had advan-
cel about half mile, when the rebels
swept an it. The shock was met without
ainching, and the division refused to give
an inch, and though the enemy made
three charges on it before nightfall, he
repulsed them all without wavering, tho
In doing so it sustained heavier loss
than any other division on the right
Fighting on this part of the lines was in
dense fogs. The attack just grazed the
left of Palmer's corps, which had not left
the trenches, but was preparing to do So.
Col. Arson McCook's brigade was par
TALLY engaged, repulsing the enemy from
beginning to end At 8 o'clock p. M. the
enemy abandoned the fight in front of
Williams and Geary, carrying off their
dead and wounded, and falling back to
theirb heavy works about mile distant
In front of Ward and Newton he was
compelled to leave all his dead and Sc
verely wounded.

Important News from Grant !

SUCCESSFUL ASSAULT ON PETERSBURG.
The siege of Petersburg opened in
earnest Saturday morning. AT daylight
our forces blew up one of the principal
rebel batteries consisting Of l6 guns,
and had carried three tiers of earth
works of the rebels before the mail boat
left City Point Saturday morning.
A dispatch dated at headquarters army
of the Potomac at 10 o'clock on that day
day says: The great event so long anti
cipated, namely the explosion of mine
under the rebel fort in front of the 9th
army corps, came off at 40 minutes past
four o'clock. Picket firing was kept up
necessarily all highland, in fact, at
time the match was applied to the mine,
the skirmishers were engaged on both
sides. The volume of dirt thrown up
was immense, rising over 800 feet in
the air, and resembling an immense
fountain OF earth more than anything
else.
The 9th corps at once charged the
works, driving The rebels to their second
line of entrenchnents, and taking num-
Der of prisoners, some of whom were
dug out Of the dirt badly bruised. TIE
rebel prisoners state that only about one
dozen remain in their regiment, a South
Carolina one.
As soon as the explosion took place
l20 guns Immediately opened on our
front, while the musketry blazed in one
continuous line Of fire along the front Of
the 9th, and part of the 9Th and l8th
corps. The smoke from the guns soon
obscured the view, and the first particu-
lars Of success were CLEANED from those
who came in with prisoners.
The prisoners say we completely sur
prised those in their front, they being
mostly asleep at the lime. They state
there were 4 guns in the Notifications,
which of course were buried far out of
sight One of the prisoners stated that
they were busy mining under our works,
and in two days more they would have
been ready to blow them up. We got
the start of them, however.
Reports from headquarters Saturday
afternoon say that we have possession of
the entire LIST line of the rebel works and
a number of prisoners. Our loss in the
charge was severe, as our men crossed
an open field within reach of the rebels.
Firing is still going on with great fury,
consisting principally of musketry.-
Gems. Grant and Meade, with the corps
generals, were at the front watching the
progress of affairs.

THE DRoUTH AND CRoPs.-T b e
drouth in Vermont in 1854 will be one
long remembered. From all parts of the
State the complaint is general and the
same, but notwithstanding il is believed
the crop of bay and some of the earlier
grains is much better than has been an
ticipated. A s consequence of b e
drouth the hay has all been secured in
excellent order, and the quality is much
better than last year, and makes up for
the quantity, though farmer in h s
town informs US that he has got as much
in quantity this year as last, and of much
better quality. Another farmer gives
his opinion that the aggregate value of
hay this year for use will be more than
last year, mainly on account of its supe-
rior quality. This of course does
apply in all cases but appears to in the
aggregate. Potatoes and some of the
later crops pastures are suffering
much. To make this up farmers must
SOW English turnips, and we are glad to
know that many r e doing so, or will
when sufficient rain has fallen. Corn as
all know stands h e drouth better than
most crops, and though it has suffered
much already, having rolled and unroll-
ed, till the leaves are nearly worn out,
yet abundant rain soon win invigorate
and bring it forward, therefore as yet we
anticipate a good crop, and as a whole
we are led to take a cheerful view of the
irouth, the abundant rains 10 May hav-
ng saved us from fearful disaster.-BeI-
