MISCELLANEOUS. MISCELLANEOUS. MAKE HASTE TO LIVE. to an institution which has demoralized their labor, aqd cultivating the earth by an enslaved race of men, they have made their slaves the source of their political power, and have ruled with the produots of slave labor. The happy hours of our national progress have for years been embittered by their insolenoe. All legislation that looked to the prosperity of the Northern States and protection to their industry has been opposed and 'defeated by them. With the growth of Northern strength, as the result of free institutions and fice toil, came tho possession of political power and the gradual resistance to the encroachments of slavery. Nor need we remind the people of the outrages that followed the efforts of the slaveholders, to recover their unholy and despotic dominion. The outrages upon Kansas; the studied insults to Northern Senators and Representatives ; the ceaselcss abuse of the Northern people, and the gradual concentration of the military aud naval power in the hands of the traitors, all contemplated the restoration of their ascendancy, and enabled them to inaugurate the treason which culminated in war. Strengthened by a wicked Administration, and sustained by timid and treacherous publio men in the free States, they were permitted to organize an armed resistance, and to make fearful advances before the Government could strike a blow in its own defence. Tbeir whole effort since the war began has been to divide the people of the loyal States. They announced earljr in 1861, that Pennsylvania should join the South in the event of a seperation, and this is their secret hope to-day. They would have held the hands of the Government that the rebels might strike at its heart, and would have succeeded bat for the prompt courage of President Linooln. They followed the fortunes of General Breckinridge op to the period of his desertion into the ranks, of the rebels. They repeat bis arguments in this their country's darkest hour, Their plea for the Constitution was his plea before ho drew bis sword against it. Tbey clamor, as he clamored, ogainst the Abolitionists. They deplore emancipation, even while they deny that the most effective emancipationists are the slaveholders themselves. They bewail confiscation acts, while Jefferson Davis sequestrates the property of all loyal men in the South. And, as if to complete the parallel, and to show how sincerely they love their traitors, even as they pretend to despise the treason, they see our brave men perishing on the battle-field and in hospital, from the disease of the swamps and the bullets of the foe, and discourage enlistments in order that they may be relieved; and, while'prating of a negro exodus into the free States, to terrify our laboring whites, denounce the employment of the escaped colored men of the South to lighten the burdens and lesson the labors of the white defenders of the flag.

The Want* of the People duly Considered t Make baste, O man ! to do, Whatever must be done; Thou hast no time to lose in sloth, Thy day will soon be gone. Make haste, O man ! to live. " Gen. Wilcox said that large numbers of Southern people—men, women and children—for no other crime than supposed loyalty to the country and constitution of their futhers, were incarcerated in dungeons, and treated even worse, if possible, than they had been. The masses of the people South would gladly recognize and return to the Union, but so closely are they held in bondage and terror that no demonstration of their loyalty can be uiddf. They are thoroughly enslaved, through fear, to Jeff. 1'avis, Robert Toombs, Howell Cobb, and others—men whom they now and always have thoroughly hated and despised."Said Gen. Wilcox, the South is fighting for the most absolute despotism on Hie face of the earth. Freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and even freedom of thought through the secret ballot is entirely and always will be denied. They hate free government, they hate free schools, colleges, and institutions of learning, and they intend to wage an eternal wuref'are against them all. They desire a strong government—on iron clad government.— Its foundation is to be that scaly, slimy monster, Slavery—that mean, hydra-headed monster, Slavery; and its cap that scum of creation, Southern chivalry ! I know of what I speak. I have talked with these men and leurned their views — I am a Democrat, and I say upon this issue we Democrats can grasp and join hands with the abolitionists. " This war is crushing Slavery, an J will continue to crush it until its vitality is gone; and I cry, Amen! I go for the President and a killing policy. He is right and I will stand by him so long as he carries th'j flag, I spoke these sentiments in Washington, and the Senators and .Representatives told me that was just what the people wanted. Now, my friends, let us close the books for the past year, forget all and open new books for the new year and go at them with a will—with gunpowder and shot—and this wretched, unholy Rebellion will be crushed, and its authors consigned to death and'infamy. " Let us not underrate their power.— They can bring 1,000,000—yes, 1,400,000 —men into the field. They take aH from 15 to 55, and then each regiment is provided with from 75 to 100 negroes, which aggregates an immense ditch-digging, tookiog, aye fighting force. These men are better organised and better drilled tbau our own. They keep their regiments full, and thereby make a great gain over us — When one dies or is killed, another is drafted and put in his place. Now let me bring this theory before you. Let me urge upon all who enlist to go into the old regiments. You will find the position every way more advantageous. Thus, many of them have gained a national renown. This you will share with them. You have men at your side who have experience, and from them, as well aff your officers, you learn your duty. It gives you confidence when engaged in the bloody strife; and this is a great thing. The Rebels understand this, and act upon it. " In the South they have town organizations to aid in carrying on the war—in furnishing men and means, and more especially bunting out those whom they reguard as inimical to the rebellion. These orginazations existed before the war, and by them they are enabled to control public opinion. Here is au example for us. Let us act upon it. We have traitors here, iu our very city of Detroit. Let us have organisations to watch them—to spot them —to put them out. Every day there are thousands of messages streaming over Mason and Dixon's line to the enemy from Northern traitors. We must make up our minds that the last droJD of blood must bespilled, and the last dollar spent to put down this rebellion. You rich men must give your money, and we soldiers will give our lives to crush it 1 Is this not right ?— Is your money of more value to you than our lives to us 1 The enemy arc full of hatred and rancor. We must return it with interest. I am in favor of civilised warfare; but when thfcy outrage every principle of eivilasation, We must give them a touch of thoir owh mode of warefare.— They have taken twenty-nine of Pope's officers and confined them in a dungeon.— Your own Williams is thus served. He is compelled to eat his famine rations out of his fingers, and wipe them with his hair.— I feel that I hate these men—I think I ought to hate them. I am sure it is a virtue to hate them. fT*HE undersigned having Just returned from the head X of market wtlh one of the most extensive stocks of merchandise ever ottered to the people of Luserne Coimtjr would respectfully announce in n few words, to his friends and the public in general that his purchases have been made with a view to the wants of the people, the Miner and laborer, as well as the clean handed gentleman, or fair lady.

Ffllow Citizens : In times of war the political organisations of peace are burrendercd or postponed to the publio emergencies. During the Revolutionary war there was no party against Washington but the lories or traitors. During the war of 1812 the enemies of the administration of Mr. Madison soon became as infamous as the foreign invaders themselves. The war with Mexico was waged, as result* have provfd, by slaveholding statements, in order that one State more might be added to the number they have lately forccd into treason ; yet tho public man who opposed it aoon became unpopular, and its victorious general was nominated for the Presidency by the same party that dissented from the policy which resulted in the war. These are the eloquent teachings of the past. We are now in a death struggle with the most powerful foe to human liberty on hcurth. This enemy is strengthened by slavery in America, and sustained by the monarchies of the Old World. The issue is clearly made—the contending parties openly arrayed against each other.— There is not a nation, an individual or an idea opposed to human freedom that is not enlisted against this Government and in favor of the rebellion. We are ourselves our only-friends. Within ourselves our only hope. We can hare no sympathy from any other Power in the world—uo sympathy that is sincere and effectual.— The State Central Committee, appointed by the Union State Convention, composed of the loyal men of Pennsylvania, who met to consider what was proper to be done in thin crisis, have a simple doty to perform in this their first address. They have only to ask whether the examples of the two wars with Great Britain, and the admonitions of the war with Mexico shall be recollectcd or rejected in this gloomy hour, and whether the American poople will cordially support the Government in putting down tho rebellion. The State Central Committee would impress upon the people of Pennsylvania that the one great object for them to consider, is the danger of the Republic.— There is no prejudice or opinion that should not be postponed, and, if necessary, sacrificed, to avert this common peril.— The Convention from which the committee derived its authority, acted in this spirit, and it is now your duty to come forward and sustain the candidates that Convention placed in nomination. Wc make this appeal to all loyal men. They only arc loyal who recognize this war as one waged for our national existence—who give an ardent and unquestioning support to the Administration—who sustain all the measures of Congress for the uaintaiuance of the war-making power, who see in the Southern Confederacy, and those wh? are in allegiance with it, the enemies of Civilization and Liberty, and who do nothing to weaken tho bands of the Executive. They are not merely disloyal who take arms in I their hands and combine themselves into ; an army. He is a rebel who abjures his allegiance and becomes au enemy to hi* flag; but he is a traitor, who, while enjoying the protection of the Government, and ostensibly observing bis pledge of allegiance, contrives to bring dishonor and defeat upon his oountry. These rebels aod these traitors we are called upon to meet. We must encounter them on the battle field and at the ballot box. The ballot box is the grea) source of popular power. If beaten there, our victories will be fruitless, our sufferings unrewarded, wir sacri- I fices barren, and the glory and valor of our soldiers will end io the triumph of the Southern rebellion and a dishonorable peace. It is unnecessary to restate the causes of the war. Our opponents have made them the substance of calumny and misrepresentation. For answjr, we appeal to the living history familiar to all men. We need not remind the people that at the basis of the Southern rebellion there exists a ba- Itred of Northern men and Northern institutions—of onr social, politieal and revouue systems. This has inspired their loaders daring "two generation*. Wedded Misses B. A. & T. C. WORDEN, MAXTAtiHAKING.—Mrs. 8. J.

DRESS PATTERNS. While the enemies of the war propose adhering to the form of a mere party organisation, the loyal men have yielded their preferences and systems, content to defer to the days of peace the revival of dispute* which can only be repeated now to the injury of the common cause. jLet the peoplo decide whether that interest is deserving of confidence which in the midst of war, refuses to abandon the prejudices of partv strife, and in the midst of national peril devotes itself to the work of dividing the people. The opponents of the war are more anxious to prove their hatred to a party than to the public enemy. They insist that the " demon Abolition" is the most dangeroos foe of the pablie peace. We caa see bat one great criminal—but one great enemy of the Republic—and he is now in arms against our oountrymen and brothers. To defeat him at once and forever is our first and moet iuiperitivc duty. The adversaries of the war insist that they contend for the Union as it was, and the Constitution as it is. We, too, are for the Union as it was, but not for the return of the armed associates of the sympathisers with treason to the places they so long occupied and so basely deserted. Ana while we renew our fealty to the Constitution as it is, we also insist upon the addition of that duty which the opponents of the war So steadily ignore, vix : "The enforcement of the laws," whether these laws are for the confiscation of all rebel property, the emancipation of all slaves who aid to defend the flag of the Union, or the punishment of th» reckless partisans in the adhering States who aid and comfort the rebel enemy, demoralise the people, and paralyse the arm of the Executive. If, in a word, we have sympathy to bestow it is not for the Murders of our country's liberties, but for the defenders ofc those liberties. The gallant soldier teaches us by his example to persevere in devotion to our country. He offers his life to tho Bepublie with uncomplaining spirit, reposes full confidence in his superiors, sustains the Government of the United States, and sees but one antagonist before him— the rebels who strikes at his own heart and at the Union of these States. We should be unworthy of the advantages of peace and of homo if we did not strive to imitate at the ballot-box an example so freely set before us by Our fellow-citizens on the battle-field.
