The Two Tickets- The voters of this county will bear us witness that wc left no effort untried to prevent all party teeling this fall by the formation sf a Union ticket, but the Lew istown Democrat, fancying that political capital could be made by crying out against the State Government with vague and indefinite charges of corruption, and against the General Government by charg ing the Lincoln administration with the war taxes, with a few cents increase in the price of coffee and tea, together with a fling at republican abolitionism now and then, declined to second any such arrange ment, and stated specifically that it want ed a member to legislate under the first I programme. A ticket was accordingly ' nominated, embracing several of the most ; violent Breckinridge men in this county— I men who have denounced the war com- i inenced by the Southern traitors in the 1 most obnoxious language, and who in elec- j tioneering have not scrupled to charge the Lincoln administration with all enumerated above, as well as sundry additions of their own. Some ot them too stand in the doubtful position of being " peace" advo cates of that clas9 built up by that trait orous sheet the New York Day Book, and j there is good reason to believe that at least 1 one was instrumental in circulating that i nfamous publication. Whether the Democrat has found that j such wholesale denunciations would not pay, or felt satisfied with the cue it had al ready given its political hacks, the last ' number comes out with an appeal to drop ! all discussion respecting the candi latcs, but in doing so declares that no one can with "truth and honesty" gainsay the at sertion that its ticket is composed of as j worthy men as ours. It also alleges that it is purely a political question—that is, the Chicago Platform vs. Democracy. We have no doubt it would be highly I gratifj'ing te the patent democracy that we should pass over its ticket without a word of comment, because a weaker one has never been nominated by that party in this county, ocn. Butler, Gen. Cass, Messrs. | Dix, Dickinson, Holt, Judge Nill, and many others of eminenee, unanimously de clare that those who are not heart and soul against the southern rebels—who endeavor to raise discontent against the war meas ures of the administration—wlio seek to turn to political advantage the taxation imposed to sustain that war, are NO DEMO CRATS—and we honestly believe thai; these charges can be truthfully laid against too J many candidates on the so-called democrat ic ticket. Besides, what kind of "Democ- j , racy does the Democrat mean, as there I i happen to be several kinds just now? For ' i instance, there is the Douglas Democracy,! i bold and honest in its support of our gal lant armies and the administration in their efforts to put down the Southern traitors; there is the Breckinridge Democracy, too many of whose stay-at-home members are either lukewarm in supporting the war, ad vooating secession sentiments, or taking svery occasion to denounoe it as a humbug, ' jfcc. To which class does this ticket be long? No resolutions were adopted by the self styled democratic convention —no rat ification meeting was held to lay down even : an equivocal platform —and we must there fore judge them by their past conduct. Let us see what that was. J. Harrison lloss, the nominee for Assembly, was an ultra Breckinridge man, and what his sen timents were since the commencement of ; this war, the streets of McN eytown can testify, as well as every Douglas democrat in that region. Need any one be told whA course others pursued since Mr. Lincoln took the oath of office. If they gave the war measures of the administra tion even a lukewarm support , we hope some of their friends will be able to point out when and where they did so. Ilave not some of them frequently been most bit ter in their denunciation of the adminis tration, charging all these troubles on the election of Mr. Lincoln, notwithstanding every honest man now acknowledges that the present rebellion is but carrying out the infamous project commenced under (Jen. Jackson in 1882, but which he then put down with an iron hand before they were able to strike a blow. Have not others at least indirectly advised men not to enlist as soldiers, and gave other evidence by their acts that the support of the Na tional and iState Government was a secon dary consideration to the interests of party. Such is their record, and such the platform on which they stand, and if that is democ racy, we may well despair of our country and its institutions. We say then that it is not a political question, and in support of our opinion wo adduce an extract from a speech made last week in New York by that sterling patriot and honest democrat, Hon. Joseph Holt, of Kentucky. Will j any one pretend to say, after reading the j following, that he would support any man for office under the position laid down by the Lewistown Democrat in its article de clining a Union ticket ? Fellow citizens, (said Mr. Ilolt) if I might be permitted to utter a word upon such a sub- ; ject, 1 would earnestly counsel forbearance ' and patience in reference to those charged j with the administration of our Government. Before criticising their conduet we should re member that we may not see all the field of action, and may not be in a condition justly to appreciate the difficulties to be overcome, j No man can doubt the honesty and loyalty of the President of the United States [im mense applause, waving of hat*, and cries of No], or his determination to suppress this rebellion. To him, under the Constitution, the popular voice has committed absolutely the fate of this Republic. His hands are emphatically your hands, and in weakening him, you weaken yourselves and you weaken the struggling country that we are all striving to save. He is, too, at this m. incut over whelmed with a mountain of responsibility and toil such as ever rested on no public man j in our history, and he is fully entitled to all the support and all the consJation which a j generous and warm hearted patriotism can give him. Amid all the discouragements that surround us, I have still an unfaltering faith in human progress and in the capacity ! of man for self-government-. I believe all the blood which the true lovers of our race have shed upon more than a thousand bat tic fields has born fruit, and that fruit is the Republic of the United States. It came forth upon the world like the morning sun from its chamber, and its pathway has been the pathway of light and glory, and it has pour- : ed its blessings upor, its people in brimming fullness, as rivers from their waters to the sea. I cannot admit to my bosom the crush ing thought that in the full light of the j Christian civilization of the nineteenth cen tury *ueh a Government is fated to perish be neath the swords of the guilty men who are now banded together for its overthrow. [Ap plause, loud and long.] I cannot, I will not believe these twenty millions of people, cul- j tivated, loyal, courageous—twenty millions . of the Anglo-Saxon race, bearing the names of the heroes of the Revolution, and passing their lives p.mid the inspirations of battle j fields,—will ignominously suffer its institu tions to be overthrown by ten millions, near ly half of whom are wretched, helpless slaves with fetters in their hands.' No page of his- . tury so dark and so humiliating as this has been written of any portion of the human family; and the American people had better, far better, never to have been born than to ' have lived to have such a history written of ; themselves. Let us then, fellow-citizens, en deavor to raise ourselves fully to this great I work of duty. If it is to be done well, it should be done quickly. If we would econo mise both blood and treasure, wo should movo promptly—we should move mightily. If, at this very moment, it were possible to precip- i itate the whole physical force of the North upon the battle fields of the South, it would i be a measure, not only of wisdom, but of I economy and humanity also. Let us, then, j have faith and hope and courage, and all will yet be well. FeJlow-citizens, I feel I may jave spoken to you to night with more em- ! p lasis and more earnestness of suggestion t lan 1 am pnvileged to employ in your pres- | enca. If I have done so, you will forgive the freedom, I know; attributing it to that ! terrible conjunction of affairs under which it j is my fortune to address you. If I had a greater interest than you had, or a less inter- ! est, then you might mistrust mo ; but I have precisely the same interest. If this Union is dismembered, and this Government over- j throw D, the grave of every earthly hope will open at my feet; and will open at yours also. When the storm is raging at sea, when the ' laboring and quivering vessel shrieks out from every joint at the coming destruction, all who are on board, alike the humble sailor I and the most distinguished passenger, will | ' fVel themselves possessed of that right which ntr human despotism can control —tie right of self preservation. Even so, amid the heavy current of this national tragedy, I, an humble citizen of this distracted country, have ventured to lift up the voice of counsel j and entreaty in your hearing, and to thank you most kindly for your attention. There is another question connected with this so-called democratic ticket wor thy of public consideration. One half <>/ it is composed of tavern and ex-tavern keepers .' Now the simple fact that a man is or was engaged in the sale of liquor may not be sufficient iu the opinion ot many to ostracise him l'roni all office, yet there are some which ought not to be held by such persons. How would it sound to have a President .Judge from among that class? And does it sound any better for the asso ciates? Yet here are two candidates on this so called democratic ticket who have spent a great part of their lives since ar riving at manhood in the sale of liquor; and these are the men whom the Democrat would set up as controlling judges on the greatest moral question before the Ameri can people, and of all others of most in terest to fathers, to mothers, to wives, to brethren and sisters. All men will imbibe more or less of prejudice for a vocation they have followed, and out of which they have realized money ; and but few cases have ever come to our knowledge where men engaged in the sale of liquor have stood up and acknowledged that in taking his money they have wronged either the unfortunate inebriate or the helpless fami ly who sutiored through his degradation. No, in ninety nine cases out of a hundred they have stilled conscience by the excuse that if they did not take it somebody else would. We say therefore that neither Mr. Turner nor Mr. Coplin, even setting aside all other objections, are nominations fit to be made, or proper persons to be elec ted, as associate judges of this county. The next on the list is Mr. Sample, who has been nominated for Treasurer. This office has been generally conceded to the borough, and it must be a consoling reflec tion to those who have for years endeavor ed to climb the ladder, to fiml that one who i j came to town last year and set up a tavern j sign, has sampled them for all time to come. Mr. S's experience in public busi ness, so far as we know, has been confined to the eol lectors hip of Oliver township; and if it will take him (should he be elec ted) as long to redeem county orders as it has to settle up his duplicate, the hold ers may well pray for relief of some kind The Seat of War. From all that we can gather it is evi dent that mighty preparations are being made both at Washington and St. Louis to take the field against the Southern trait ors. At the former [dace there must beat least 150,(100 troops, and at the latter per haps one half that number, whom Fre mont will soon have under proper drill. A few more blows at the Southern eoa>t, like tile Ifatteras affair, will show tin- traitors as well as those whom they have betrayed, what irar A, and perhaps bring them to their senses. \\ hen news does come, we think it will he stirring. The Mobile Tribune of the 2d iust. states that whilst the Confederates were employed in attempting to raise the drv dock they were fired upon from Fort Pick ens, first with blank cartridge, and then with shot and shell, forcing the men to leave. The Tribune calls this "an outra geous act of v.ar" The ('onfedcratcs, it will be recollected, some time ago tioated out the dry dock with the intention of sinking it in the channel. It became un manageable rftid drifted over toward Fort Pickens. Col. 11row u then gave them no tice that if they attempted to move the dry dock he would fire upon them, and has now been as good as his word. From Ilattcras Inlet, via Old Point, we have important news. The steam gun boats Monticello and Harriet Laue had ar rived, leaving at the Inlet the Pawnee and Susquehanna. The Susquehanna ran down to Ocracoke Inlet aud found that the Con federates had abandund their strongly for tified forts at that point, and carried away the guns. The occupation of the coast of that portion of North Carolina by the Government has developed quite a readi ness to abandon the Secession cause. The I white flag is everywhere displayed, and ' numbers were coming into Fort Uattcras and taking the oath of allegiance. Padueah, Kentucky, Occupied by United j States Troops—A Proclamation from Gen. \ Grant. CAIRO, September 6.—General Grant, with i two regiments of infantry and a company of light artillery, in two gunboats, took posses sion of Padueah, Kentucky. He found secession flags flying in differ ent parts of the town, in expectation of greeting the arrival of the southern army, , which was reported to be 3,800 strong, and only sixteen miles distant. Tbe loyal citizens tore down the secession flags on the arrival of our troops. General Grant took possession of the telegraph office, railroad depot, and the Marine Hospital. lie j found large quantities of complete rations, leather, etc., for the southern army. The General issued the following procla mation : "I have oomo among you not as your en emy, but as your friend and fellow citizen ; j not to injure and annoy you, but to respect, defend and enforce the rights of all loyal cit izens. The enemy is in rebellion against our common Government. lie has taken posses- j sion of and planted his guns upon the soil of Kentucky, and fired upon our flag.

Advance of Gen. Rosecranx—Rattle Rcjteded. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 9.—Tho New York Herald has a despat h dated Camp Smith, 1 \ a., September 8, which says : Gen. Hose crans left his previous camp yesterday, and swept over the mountain in full force. The Rebels are reported as being strongly posted a few miles ahead. Their advance pickets j were fired upon four miles ahead of our posi tion this morning. There will be a tight soon. All the inhabitants of the region are fright ened and running away. A letter from Gen. Banks' division reports that the Confederates keep up a constant fir ing across the river, and at times make dem j onstrations as if thoy designed crossing. On Friday thero was heavy cannonading at Ed wards' Ferry, beyond which, on the road leading to Leesburg, they are throwing up defensive works. The Confederates appear to have comple ted their works on Munson's Ilill, which are not of a very formidable character. On Monday they opened fire from a masked bat tery upon the National pickets, but did not succeed in inflicting any injury. The fire was returned by the sharp-shooters and two of tho Confederates killed. With this excep tion all was quiet along the lines. The Navy Department has official informa tion from Hatteras Inlet. Commodore Row an, of the Pawnee, states that ten regiments have been recalled from Virginia by the North Carolina authorities. i Desperate Fight Between Scouting Parties. , IIANNIBAI., Missouri, September 4.—Cor \ poral Dix, of the Third Ohio Regiment, while out scouting with five men at Kirks i ville, last week, was surrounded in a farm l house while at dinner, by a party of twenty tiyo secessionists, who demanded a surrender, i lie refused, when the secessionists made an attack, and a severe fight ensued, hut the Federalists maintained their position in the house, driving their assailants from the ; ground with the loss of seven killed and four woundid. Corporal Dix was killed, but none of the other Federalists were hurt. $2,000 Wanted. r |MIE undersigned lias been authorized bv the Commissioners of Mifflin county to borrow any sum up to $2,000, at six percent, interest, for the use of the Relief Board, as it is desirable not to draw on the county treasury so as to embarrass the redemption of county orders Sums of SSO and upwards : will be taken, and as the object is both patri j otic and benevolent, it is hoped a ready re j sponse will be given by those who wish well to the soldier who has left the comforts and ! endearments of home—humble though it be —to fight tho battles of his country.

JACOB MUTTIIERSBQUGH, sepll-fit Administrator, j Remarks of Mr. Slenker. A T the Great Union Celebration held in i\_ Middleburg, on the 4th day ot July last, on motion of Judgo Middleswarth, /iN?.* That the Committee of Arrange ments bo requested to obtain copies of the addresses for publication. The following extract of an address de livered by Isaac Slenker, Esq. was banded to us with the request that it be published. "We have seen how our ancestors estab lished this government, by a successful revo lution against foreign oppression, and how its rights have since been vindicated against the encroachments of both F.ngland and Mex ico. But the problem now is, shall we bo able to protect ourselves as a nation, against wtrsdves t It is an old adage, and no less true than ancient, that " the worst enemies a man cau have are those of his own household." lu ternal dissensions, whether in the family or the body politic, are always of more difficult disposition than hostility from without. Our country, hitherto so gloriously happy and prosperous, is now in this unhappy pre dicament. No foreign foe invades our shores. Health and plenty have smiled upon our land. But tho troubles in which we are now involv ed. are the very worst that we have exper ienced since we have been a nation, such as we had never suffered ourselves, even in im agination, to anticipate. We are in tho midst of a rebellion against our government, and the blood of our citizens has already been sited in civil strife. We shall be compelled to test the strength of our government in or der to see whether the conimemoration of this day shall be perpetuated to future genera tions or not. It therefore behooves every pa triot, who participates in the celebration of this day, seriously to consider the nature of our government, its origin, its progress, the blessings we have enjoyed under it, and above all to be actuated by an indomitable resolution to preserve it against our domestic, as it has been against our foreign enemies. In a word, I would have every one filled with the spirit of '76, and to feel all the signifi cance of the event we commemorate. As to the causes which have brought about this rebellion different opinions have been entertained, and therefore I shall say noth ing about theui on this occasion. It is suf ficient for me to know, that that is no part of our present inquiry. Whatever opinion wo may have entertained heretofore, the mo ment the first gun was fired on Fort Sumter, we were bound to forsake them as the inci dents of a past issue. New duties and obli gations immediately devolved upon us. We had passed the Rubicon, and we were obliged to leave all political and partisan predilection on the other side. Patriotism will not per mit us now, while our country is in this fear ful crisis, to inquire who is a Democrat or who is a Republican. It is the duty of both Democrat and Republican, to divest himself of all political and partisan feeling, and to act in the character and with the feelings of a patriot. To illustrate, let mo suppose that yonder house was discovered to be on fire. The flames were just bursting out of one part of the roof. By prompt and energetic exer tions it was possible to extinguish the tire ; or, at all events, to arrest its progress so as to save the adjoining buildings. Suppose now also that at this particular juncture I should come along, and all voices should im portune me to help to extinguish the fire.— But I would say, " no, I cannot help to put out the fire until I first know how it origina ted —whether it was the work of an incen diary or the result of an accident." Now what would you think of my conduct in the premises? Would I not justly expose my self to the censure and contempt of all good men? Would the reverse of ail this not be in* duty? First, to do all I could to help to put out the fire, and afterwards, if I had the curiosity, to inquire how it originated ! •Just so in the present situation of our gov ernment : wo have not time now to settle among ourselves the question as to the causes that have led to this unhappy war. That is i matter that we have discussed and quarrel led about for a long series of years without coining to any conclusion in which all could agree. A part of our country is in actual rebellion against tho government. Klcven States of our hitherto happy Union have so ceded from us and declared their indepen dence. They have ignored this very day as the anniversary of our common country.— They have insulted and trampled in the dust that glorious flag which has been so long the emblem of national greatness, and substitu ted in its stead the meretricious badge of a pseudo government. They have not only done this, but they have marched a large and hostile army to the very suburbs, as it were, of our National Capital. No other alterna tive, therefore, is left us but to uuite heart and hand to repel the aggression and put down rebellion, whatever niav be the sacri fice. Whatever grievances the Southern States may have had previous to this accession, it is very clear to my mind that secession is not their remedy. If they had a right to secede under the Constitution, then the formation and adoption of that instrument was a vain expedient, and the men who composed the convention that framed it must cither not have understood the relative position of the States, or they were ignorant of the force and mean ing of the language in which they expressed the result of their labors. If the Constitu tion means what the secessionists contend it does, it is a dead letter, and has failed to ac complish the object whieh suggested the call of the convention. It has left the States in precisely the same situation, with reference i to a common object, that they were in after I the treaty of peace in 1783. At the close of the revolution, during which the States had been kept together by neces sity for their common defense, the Union was j continued under what was called the " Arti• I eles oj Confederation." This instrument was partially adopted on the 15th November, 1777, and finally by all the States on the Ist March, 1781. ihe Congress of the Confederation soon found, however, that their form of gov- i eminent utterly failed to meet the wants of the Union, —that, to ni'.ko it efficient, it was necessary to obtain from the States an in crease of power, as an element of .the general \ government. This state of affairs led to the call of the convention which formed our pres ent Constitution. It will be observed, that in the very pream- , ble of this Constitution, it is distinguished from the Articles of Confederation; and to show that the "people" required something more than a more " confederationof States. : The necessity of a change in their govern ment was felt by the people ; the project of effecting a change originated with the people; and the provisions of tho new Constitution j were adopted to meet the wants of the people. Ilcnce the preamble reads thus: "We the pe-ple of the United States in order to form a more perfect Union, establish juetice, in sure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general wel fare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do or establish this Constitution lor the 'i 5 ' States of America." v n 'oi But the powers that were wanting a more perfect Union," Jtc.. are p r ,i' ,'* enumerated in the Bth section of the | ' tide of tho Constitution. [Here that J* was read.) Now from the slightest'V ation of these powers, it must unprejudiced mind, that, from their \ ' ture, they were such that they never co** exercised in harmony by the St Stat?*. From the diversity of clini t productions, as well as t^'geographt^ 1 sition of the States, in a commercial n-l, view, it was very evident, that the i,. ? ' of the States could scarcely ever he >.4 s ' alike, la carrying out these power c' 1 very idea gave birth to the project of'J cation and secession in 1833, and has el ' terized tho movements of the party fi it, from that time until its oulmiiiatL.n*''"*T* t present secession and rebellion. ' Now it is to be observed, thai the > ment inaugurated by tho secedin. w" styled "The Confederate Stat™ o/\4n>' " It is precisely the same in terms 'as* the I ticles of Confederation." The interests fl people of the several States comprising Confederacy, have no other common b ! union but that which arises from neces!* Remove that necessity and it will be the government under the old Articles * Confederation: It is notliiug better thv'' " rope of sand." If aoy one State U'' right to secede, they all have it, m,! "" quently they can he kept together ti . . than their interests are identical. I t w i give birth to a brood of petty tyrant* would bo continually at war with one another until tho whole country would beeom consolidated and unmitigated despotism It was a state of this kind that the Fath.~ of our country had in view, who in his tare well address said, "It is indeed little than a name where the Government in t feeble to withstand the enterprise of facti to confine each member of society withinV limits prescribed by law, and to maintains in the secure and tranquil enjoyment of tv rights of person and property." G noral Jackson, in his famous nullify tion message also uses language like tin " No one believes that any right exists in single State to involve all the others in these and countless other evils, contrary toenev,. nients solemnly made. Ecertj one mil-; l ; that the other States, in self-Jefenee, must 0 pose if at all hazards So I say: This secession must be repnda ted, and the rebellion that has grown out ' it must be put down "at all hazards." W must test the question, whether there is <ui cient power vested in our government to pr serve its existenco for the benefit of futurt generations, against the hydra-headed nii stcr of secession, that has reared its gordiu head to swallow the liberties handed downtj I us by our forefathers."
