How Secretary Fessenden Looks.


The following pen-portrait of Secretary
Fessenden was written some time ago by the
late G. W. Pierce, of the West Chester Re
publican; 'fWilliam Pitt Fessenden
stands at this time, without a doubt at the
head of the American Senate I suppose
him to be nearly six feet in height; posi-
bly, two inches under that measurement
and he would not in my judgement weigh
over one hundred and sixty pounds. His
face long and rather severe in expression,
heavy eyebrows, darl1-brown hair, streak
ed with grey, worn rather long and with
slight inclination to curl, Judge him
to be about ffty-Ayeyears of age. l should
not think him a man of strong friendship
and yet he seems to be on familiar terms
with all the Senators, occasionally enjoy
ing kind of dry laugh with those who
come to him or to whom he goes to. chat.
He pays little attention to style in dress,
being behind the fashion, but there is
nothing of the sloven in his appearance.
His voice is clear, rather sharp in tone,
and he speaks naturally and with about
the proper amount of gesture Hs i'm
presses any one who hears him that he is
not talking for talks sake, but is simply
filing his position as a statesman by bring
ing the powers of his mind to the elucida-
ton ofthe subject-matter under discussion.
There is nothing aorid in the style of Mr..
Fessenden, but on the contrary his oratOry
is solid, probing, and yet sufficiently grace
ful to secure the attention ofhis audience.
l presume the great point which attracts
attention to, and produces admiration for,
the Maine Senator, is the exceeding clear
ness of his fne intellect

The Rebel Raid.

The people of the North are again in
periodical ferment over the news Of the
rebel invasion Of Maryland and Pennsyl-
vania. The most wild an unnatural the
ories are matched in the brains of the crazy
enthusiasts whose knees shake with false
alarms. Now we have Washington cap
tured, then we have the whole of Lees
army moving northward with the exceP-
tion of one corps left behind to defend
Richmond.
The rumors that came yesterday Of an
attack upon the northern fortifcations Of
Washington may possibly prove correct !;
but what such an attack would be, is evi-
dent to any one who knows anything
concerning the defencos Of that city. The
rebels are placing themselves in very
perilous position. No less than seventy
five or eighty thousand men must have
gathered at various points in Maryland to
take captive the rebel horde The 18th
and 18th corps at Baltimore, Gen. Couch
at Hagerstown, Gen. Hunter at Martins
burg, and other miscellaneous forces must
be sufficient to overwhelm the whole rebel
force
We therefore expect TO hear of hasty
and disastrous retreat, and probably the
capture of the entire force that have cross
ed the Potomac If they number no more
than 10000. the number generally estima-
ted, it will be inexeusable and criminal
negligence which allows them to escape.
Look out for a great rebel skedaddle from
Maryland and a victorious movement Of
Grant.
Never was the absence of an effective
militia system more completely illustrated
than in this rebel raid. Had there been
an effective militia in Pennsylvania, the
coat tails of these marauding rebels would
have been turned northward before this
time As it is, unless they are captured,
they may hurry off large number Of hor-
ses and cattle and hogs
The government has been at work with
all its energy to repel this invasion, from
the moment that small squads began to
make their appearance south of the Poto-
mac Already a large force Of veteran
soldiers are in the field to meet these
raiders.
The Baltimore correspondent Of the
World declares this movement to be one
in which the whole rebel army is to join.
That Lee, by advancing on Washington,
is going to compel the evacuation Of the
position now held by Grant. Lee might
be tempted to try this scheme, but it is
scarcely possible SO much madness should
control him. as
For details we must refer our readers
to the telegraph.

THE KING OF wERTElIBERG.

William Frederick Charles-is dead
He was born in 1881, and ascended the
throne 1916. During the lifetime of his
father he fought in the Austrian army
against Napoleon. In 1903 Napoleon
compelled him to marry the Princess
Coroline Augusta of Bavaria, but the mar
riage was dissolved by mutual consent in
1914. In 1919 he granted his subjects
constitution, and distinguished himself as
a liberal monarch, until the revolution of
ls4s frightened him into retroactive meas
ures. After his divorce from his first wife
he was twice married, first to a daughter
of the Emperor Paul, of Russia, by whom
he had two daughters, and next to his
cousin, the Princess Pauline, of Wurtem-
burg, by whom he had his son Charles,
who succeeds him. The new King is mar
ried to daughter of Nicholas, of Russia

About Substitutes.

Those who try to put into the service
representative men, find themselves very
much embarrassed by hungry crowd Of
vultures and harpies always hanging about
recruiting Offices and the Provost Mar
shaTs. They are on the streets and around
the docks, from morning to night, watch
ing with deVilish ewes for victims to their
greedy Tapacity. By system of organ
ized efforts, they manage to rob recruits Of
one half or three fourths of all the bounty
offered and paid by men who wish to put
intothearnly representative men. We know
of several cases where these miserable
wretches induced men to enlist for fifty or
a hundred dollars, they themselves pock-
citing from two to four hundred dollars by
the operation. The whole mongrel crew
ought to be hung up by the ears, tared and
featbered and thrown into the Lake, or
shot by authority. Some of these speeu-
lators are well known and viii be exposed
in these columns if their operations are not
checked by the citizens. G gT.
What is needed is Citizens Volunteer
Substitute Association after the plans adopt
in New York City and Philadelphia
These associations are organised so that
the full bounty passes into the hands of
the recruit. Citizens are invitedt to sub
scribe, say $500, and then all who are
ready to go as substitutes, by applying at
the headquarters of the Association, can
receive just $500, no more and no less.
We understand that many of our prom
inent men are having this whole subject
under consideration and will set the differ
ent Wards to work.
Organize Substitute Associations, where
recruits will be dealt with honestly, and
there will be a great increase in the num-
Der of men that are already being enlist
ed.
As fast as substitutes are enlisted by this
Volunteer Agency, certificates Of exemp
ton are granted to each subscriber to the
fund in the order in which they have sub
seribed. Some plan like this, or possibly
something better, should be Immediately
adopted. Our citizens, by allowing ra-
pacious lot of scoundrels to speculate in
substitutes, contribute to swelling the pri-
Ces charged.
In the meantime it is the duty of all
good citizens to caution those proposing to
enlist against the villainous brokers who |
plunder their innocent victims of most Of
their bounties

The Devil Preaehing.

There has grown up of late years an un-
blushing audacity in certain newspapers
that is fearful to contemplate. A desire to
produce sensational and startling articles
of a local and scandalous character, often
characterizes the local of city paper
To report crime in such style as to throw
around it an atmosphere of innocence
which roba it of its bideousness, and makes
it appear, to inexperienced persons very
trihing matter, seems to be the chief ambi-
ton of certain sensational reporters. While
they parade their indignant virtue and Of
Tended sensitiveness to what they. term
the hideous immorality Of the age lne
gTnuihg, lering devil can beseenl through
alTthe afestation Of virtue. No more shame
less and malicious encouragement of crime
can be exhibited that what is seen in this
preaching of theDevfL To deck out scan
dal with all the polish of wit and humor, is
to work against the interests of society and
stab the very cause which is hypOcritically
advocated. Away with such service-sery.

What s snid Of the Printers strlI.e.

The Sandusky Register, after briefly
stating the facts in the case, says:
Printers Unions may have their use, but
the good sense =ofthe community viii froTn
upon such abuses of the association.
1t Is net because the wages offered are
too meager to affordasupport; for by these
wages the worllmeu make from $50 to S33
per week, and furthermorethe Union boasts
that IT has several thousand dollars saved
up from previous wages with which to fight
the publishers until they acccde 70 their
demands.
We honor the spirit Of the Cleveland
press and trust the printer will yet return
to their senses and not disgrace the craft
by attempting that which will receive the
eensure Of every honorable man. = =

TIE LEssON OF TmE FIGHT.

There is a good deal said Of the lesson in
naval wsrefare taught by the recent en-
gagement of the Alabama and Kearsarge.
Something will undoubtedly be learned in
that line, but one thing which our naval
officers will certainly not forget, is never
again to trust the honor of British sailor
present as a spectator. Some of that
class might and probably would be honor
able men, but the safest way viii be never
to trust them Capt. WINsLow, when he
found the Deerhound making off with his
prisoners, ought to have ordered her back
by a shot across her bows, and if that had
not proved efectual he should have given
her another amidships. Probably he
would have done so if he had suspected
either her character or purpose.-Ne'o
Yrok Times.

A very important decision has Just been
made by the Provost Marshal General in
regard to substitutes, which viii tend very
much to facilitate recruiting for the army
and enable the substitute market to be ca
sier, to use a commercial phrase. Mr.
Lewis Audenried, who is himself free from
the draft but desires to furnish three sub
stitutes, applied to the Provost Marshal if
he would accept as representatives for par
ties not liable to do military duty, such
citizens as are themselves enrolled and Ii
able. Mr.. Audenried wishes to send his
representatives to the army Of the PotO-
mae, and has suggested this plan to ac-
compish this object. The reply was as
follows;
