Metes. Und. r what clause of the Consti tution seen an appropriation could have been made, n.eher Congress nor the Pres ident stopped to inquire, but England did it and Parlia'ient was omnipotent, and they must copy after England though the Constitution did stand in the r way. While Congress was thus still further di viding the nation, the President and hie Secretaries of State and War were engaged in sending citizens by "Wires de cachet" to different tortressess which had.been con verted into bastilee. State Legislatures were dissolved and the members seized, mayors of cities arrested and their places made vacant—judges dragged from the bench—citizens torn from their homes, and all conveyed to these prisons; and all these things were done by the Executive without any authority and without giving the party imprisoned an opportunity to hear or to kno wof the accusation or his accuser. Edi tors of papers were arrested, their papers stopped, the mails refused to others be cause they wrote ti , freely and did not aDmenp to the Administration standard. Iu denouncing these atrocious proceedings us I do, I do not pretend to deny that there were men in the North who sympathized with and perhaps aided the South, but there were laws to reach them and judges and juror,' to try them, and they should have baen tried, convicted and punished in the only way known to the Constitution and laws of the country. Our only safety as citizens lies in the due observance of the laws both on the part of governors and the governed, and any other doctrine that tends to mob law, tyranny and the Subversion of the whole social and politi cal system. But what did the last Con grees. the conservators of the public lib erties, do with the perpetrators of these crimes and outrages? They absolved them. The arrester. the jailor, the tres passer, has but to plead the order of the President and he is relieved from all tines d punishment, and the eitizen who has oilod . of his property, who has in a pinson, in some cases Without a remedy, no him for vindicat ping his in uordinary 4i,ry been been im . M3 for months. is le' opportunity being gpr: ing hie character or estfj nocence. But of all the ex aesampt on of power which the this or r.ny other country has exhib • that of the President, in his proclamation of the first of J anuary of this year, is the most startling. By a single dash of the pen he emancipates millions of slaves, confiscates millions of property, as if in hie person alone abided the whole sower eighty of these United States. Congress, indeed, thinking that part of the sovereign ty of the nation was vested in them, had • passed confiscation acts of a very sweep ing character, which the President approv ed, but he afterwards must have thought that the passage of such an act was au as sumption of power on their part; that as Commander in-Chief he was the sov ereign and autocrat of the nation. In mddern times we have been humanizing the laws of warfare, but it remained for the Proaident to coufisnate the property of widows, minors and non•combatante, ciiizsns of his own country, of whose sen• timente and acts he was utterly ignorant, who were surrounded by armies which he had not been able to subdue, and to whom he was unable to afford any protection. After all these gross violations of the Con stitution, and when every citizen saw that the purpose of the war was no longer for restoring the Union but for freeing the negro is it at all surprising that the enthusiasm with which the war comment. ed had been extinguished and that sol diers ceold not be had to rercuit our armies? But the war must not cease, the policy must not be changed, was the cry of the Administration leaders, and men must be dragged from their homes and their families to the battle field. and for the first time in the history of a free Gov ernment, a Conscription Bill was passed. In the meanwhile the war goes on, tied will not be ended until you decree it at the ballot box. In my opinion the war could now be ended in ninety days, provided seatesmen ruled at Washingeen and not doctrinaires. The South is exhausted ; her people are tired of the war into which they were forced, and would willingly • consent to terms not humiliating and de grading and to which a proud people should not be asked to submit. The States on the Mississippi are ours. The majority of the people of Virginia, were opposed to secession. There is already a - strong Union party in North Carolina, and Alabama has lately chosen a Governor of a conservative character; but depend upon it,, the Administration at Washington is determined not t) end the war until slavery is abolished. Statesmen, when they de cide on questions affecting the lives and hap piness or millions, proceed with great de liberation and caution, but the Administra lion at Washington seems never to have considered what must be the condition cf • a race born in servitude, entirely depen dent, unaccustomed to act or to think, if suddenly obliged to provide for and take care of themselves. The English Gov ernment, with a comparatively small num ber of slaves, abolished slavery in her de pendencies after an apprenticeship and an attempt to educate her slaves up to the condition of freemen. France, on the contrary, under the rule of Louis Blanc, Ledru Rollin, and other humanitarians of the Red Republican school of 1848, after whom our President seems to have copied, abolished slavery at once in her Colonies by a decree headed, "Liberty, Equality, Fraternity:' When the war closes and the Union is restored, even if the condi• tion of the slaves should remain as before the rebellion, the same consequences • which have followed ware in other coun tries must happen here. Manufactories will be closed, business suspended, and it will require years before we can again actively and profitably resume all the occupations of peace. But if in addition to these necessary consequences of war, font- millions of slaves should at once be made free and the whole labor system of fif teen States changed, what mind could con ceive the consequences that must happen to the free States? We could get no coolies from India to sapply lost labor, as the French and English Governments have been obliged to do, and without which their islands would be almost worth less, The most productive cotton, rice and tobacco fields of the South would be come deserts, that section of the country would be ruined and over the North and West bankruptcy would sink in gigantic proportions. The merchant, manufactu rer, farmer, mechanic and laborer would very Boon feel the consequences of this sudden upturning of society: but this, the greatest question of the age, the adminis• tration at Washington treats as one of easy solution, and provided the negro can be made free, they do rot stop to inquire what must be the fate of the white man. In thins reviewing the acts of the ad ministration I have not referred to their conduct of the war. Instead of putting down she rebellion at the least possible outlay of blood arid treasure, political con siderations have been constantly upper most in their minds. Competent generals, in whom the soldiers had confidence, have been dismissed from the head of the army and incompetent ones put in their stead, who are utterly reckless of hu man life, have led thousands of American citizens to certain slaughter. In States in which the rebellion has been subdued, instead of conciliating the minds and hearts of the misguided, military satrapes have been established and scenes enacted and plunder perpetrated, •unsurpassed in the annals of Ireland or Poland, and which have brought disgrace on the Amer ican name. Subjugation and spoliation eeeza to have been the watchwords instead of peace and prosperity. All (his while the public debt has been added to until it has become one of fearful maznitude. Already it amounts to hun dreds of millions, and at the rate we are daily adding to its enormous proportions, to pay the interest we must become the most heavily taxed nation on the earth. instead of enjoying our earnings, as here- t dJrc, aidrdhaicg,ee proud stitisfaction IDAILY POST• of eetut:z. we toiled, that we wer- Sc• enriug a p ,, 2v,sion for those who were to follow us, a goodty proportion of the pro duct of our labor will have hereafter to be gathered by the tax colleetur. In view of a violated Constitution, a convulsed country, an enormous debt and taxa'ion, and both certain to increase, and the blood that has already been abed, and the untold misery caused in every part of the land, must we not one and all exclaim, "fearfally haia Republican Ad ministration cost us." My countrymen, the remedy for all those evils is in your own hands and you must apply it at the ballot box. Never in the history of this or any other country has there been a greater necessity for men to exert themselves, if they value their political rights, or think their institutions worth preserving for themselves and their children. At the next October election you will have it in your power to sink or save the country. Are you one and all pre pared The State ticket selected is one worthy of the State and country. To nnquestion ed ability they unite great integrity. The head of the ticket, our candidate for Gov ernor, I am proud to claim as a it end. You know him as the patriot who prefer red a private station to the high office of a Senator of the United States, when it was to be had by submitting to the doctrine that the term of natth.alization should be extended from five to twentyone years But of him and his unspotted character and great abilities it is unnecessary for me to speak to you, his neighbors and friends among whom he has spent the greater por tiou of his life. Elect him and you will have a Governor worthy of our great State. No citizen of Pennsylvania will then hear of his proud old Commonwealth being invaded and disgraced; her towns out under contribution and her defence less people plundered, after -he has sent thousands of her eons to the armies, and as many thousands more ready to die in her defence. Nor need he have any fear that he will then be dragged from his home—from the Capitol itself —from the very presence of the Governor, to he itn mur-d in the fortresses of adjoining States. The soldier when called into the , eld will be protected and the profligate sue ulator will not be permitted to traffic on his italth and life. permsynrisia will then become once more a great ireigri State and not a petty province. Corrupt legislation, the bane of our country whieh-ts sapping and undermining our institutions a244l7lli•oy ing public and private morals, will be checked by an incorruptible Chief Magis trate who will know all his duties nod fearlessly discharge them. E=l The following is an extract from a speech lately delivered by Judge .1. S. Black before a mass trlcr , ing in. Lances ter : I=EIE That there is somethii g radically and fatally wrong in a war which has for its object a negro proclamation inconsistent with the white man's constitution, is asell evident truth which pervades the whole popular mind. The negro policy has changed the public feeling every where North and South. When Mr. Lincoln sent his first message, he declared it to he his opinion that there was not a mrjority for Secession in any State of the Union, except perhaps South Carolina.. He was right. Nine tenths of the Southern pen ple were then as true to the Union as any part of the North, and far truer than New England ever was. The North was as nearly unanimous as any equal number of people could be on any subject. Where now are our Union friends in the South': And where is the Northern enthusiasm which two years ago marshalled the who:, population into "ranks and squadron-, and right forms of war?" Let the Con scription law answer. Away then with these negro measures ; give us back orr constitution and our laws. =ill The adherents and sympathizers of this Abolition party attempt to excuse their hostility to the Government of the white men by aserib:ng it to love for the - gro. Bat of all the cants that were ever canted in this hypocritical age, the A boli tiou cant. of humanity to the negro is the most disgustingly hollow and false. The men who have no drops of mercy for their own race cannot possibly have any hu man feeling for another. Besides, they know very well that a contest for negro equality in this country must necessarily terminate in making the negro's condition a thousand times worse. BREAKERS AHEAD Do not suffer yourself to be cajoled out of your liberties. Every wilful violation of law is a thing of transcendart import• anceif it is not instantly rebuked and pun jailed. Crimes against public liberty never atop where they begin. One outrage begets another. A siogfe individual is kidnapped, and twenty others are taken for complaining of it. The officers who stand up for law and justice must be deposed and imprisoned— and it a majority of votes can be influenced neither by venality or fear the right of suffrage will be forcibly violated. Then we are wholly enslaved. RATS! RATS! The people of Holland live in a coun try where the land is several feet below the level of the sea. They protect them selves against constant inundation by a large earthwork which they call a dyke, ex tending all along the coast. What they are most troubled with is a large species of rat, which burrows under and makes toles through their dyke. Now a rat hole is not a very alarming thing in itself; but the ac tion of the water makes it larger every moment. If it be neglected for a single night, by the time the morning dawns, the rat hole has widened into a huge crevasse. the ocean goes pouring through it, and the whole land is laid under water. So it' is with the Constitution, which is our dyke. If the smallest breach is made in it, "the ever toiling wave of arbitrary power," which is almost continually surging no against it, will constantly enlarge it until all protection for our rights is washed away. Such has been the history of these en• croachments in all past time. They begin with petty violations of justice and swell with frightful rapidity into the most 801. pendous crimes. Their first victim is a solitary, helpless and perhaps unpopular individual, but they end by forcing the yoke on the necks of millions. THE S 01.

Lemuel Todd, who presided over the Convention which re nominated Hon. An drew G. Curtin, in addressing a ratifies Lion meeting, held recently in this county, stated that he had been informed that a certain Judge Hall said, that in a recent conversation with him, you had avow• ed yourself a believer in the doctrine of see.r.ssion, and in favor of an immediate rme-gnition of the South. While I am fully satisfied that you have never l:Id or avowed those sentiments, I deem it important that your friends should have authority to contradict the statement. Will you, therefore, be kind enough to in form me whether you ever held such a conver, , ation with Judge Hall." Very respectfully, RUFUS E. SHAPLEY, (Jo:in/roll of I iemooratir .Standing Corn mitere 4 . Cumberland County. PHI: Awn NITA, Sept. 21, IFt itt I S SHAPE EY, EN Dear Sir :—Juat returned from Easton, where I went to attend the funeral of our much lamented friend, the Hon. Richard Brodhead, 1 find your favor of the 18th, informing me of a story which Mr. Todd produced at a public meeting, after obtain• log it through a Annusl which is not spe cified. There is not a word of truth in 11:9 story I know no Judge Hall, and cannot re member that I s a ver knew a man of tha SO FAR FRoll EVER AVOWING BELIEF IN SECESSION OR FAVOR ING RF.COGNITIJN OF THE SOUTH. ERN CoNFEDERACI - , 1 AM, AND ALWAYS HAVE BEEN OPPOSED TO BoTH, AND AM IN FAVOR OF SUP PRESSING THE REBELLION BY WHICH BOIH ARE SUPPORTED. My life has hetn spent, thus far, in up. holding the Constitution of the United States as the Fathers framed it—the Union they formed—and the Constitution and laws of the State; and whatever of life remains to me will he devoted to the same ends whether it be spent in public or pri vate station. NEITHER SECESSION NOR THE MA LION ANT FANATICISM THAT CAUSED IT WILL EVER FIND AN ADVOCATE IN ME. Trusting that this is a sufficient answer to the calumny you allude to, I remain, dear sir, Very truly, yours, GEO. W. WOODWARD TO NATURALIZED CITIZENS AND THOSE WHO HOPE TO BECOME SO. Judge WOODWARD, the Democratic can didate for Governor, has been charged by his enemies with a desire to extend the legal period in which a foreigner can be come a citizen, and with general hostility to naturalized citizens. HERE IS THE REFUTATION: the following letter was received on Saturday last by a gentleman of this city : PiILADELPHLi, Sept. 24th, 1863 Deer Sir: You ask tn , , "Are you in favor of extending the period of naturalization beyond the present legal term of five years ?" I answer—l am not. I would nut extend it one hour beyond the period now fixed by law. You may ma , e what use of yeur question and answer that yes please, Very tru'y yours, GEO. W. WOODWARD. That, we think, is concise and conclusive. Nothing more can be desired on that point. But let us see how the Harrisburg "jobber,'' that is too corrupt for STANTON to associate with—let us see how he stands about the nett ralilation question : In 1553, he swore solemnly: "I WILL NOT I'OTE nor gtice my influence for any man for . ANY office IN THE GIFT OF THE PEO PLE, UNLESS HE BE AN AMERICAN BORN CITIZEN IN FAVOR OF AMERICANS RrLING AMERIt'A, NOR IF HE BE A ROMAN CATHO LIC." The Know-Nothing party, into which Mr. CI'RTIN thus swore himself,is now dead in name, but not in fact—they elected Mr. POLLOCE Governor, and Mr. CURTIN was made his Secretary. Now REMEMBER that Mr. CURTIN HAS NOT RETRACTED ONE SYLLABLE OF THAT OATH. HE ADHERES TO EVERY WORD 01 IT TO THIS uoun CuwrlN also swore, at the same time, that if elected to office he would " RE MOVE ALL FOREIGNERS, ALIENS, or ROMAN CATHOLICS from OFFICE or PLACE." This oath he has promised to keep for ever " SACRED AND iNVIOLATE!" has not renounced one letter of it to this day. —We leave the mrztter with naturalized citizens. THE WAR DEBT The Gazelle shrinhs from the conse quences of its own injurious teachings in relation to the Railroad Tax—and afraid to present the actual facts and figures about our monstrous War Taxes, it amuses its readers with an array of financial heresies which were condemned and exploded fifty or a hundred years ago—as effectually condemned as-have been the unsound law and more unsound political doctrines re cently uttered by the stultified abolition leaders in regard to our Railroad Bonds. The Gazelle admits that the War Tax of 1815, which was only $127,000,000, was a "crushing burden" and that "public senti ment sternly demanded its liquidation"— this was began by klossion and ended by JACKSON two Democratic Presidents who carried out Democratic doctrines : for th e Democratic party always rejected the abominable idea that a "National debt is a National blessing," as taught by the lather of Northern disanioniets, JOHN Q 7' ADAMS The Gazette•concedes that the War Debt may amount to $2,000,000,000. We have repeatedly shown that it is not leas now, and most assuredly cannot be less in Jan• nary, 1864, than three thousand 4nillions, and it will take over $172 from every man, woman and child in Pennsylvania, old or young, sick or well, black or white, rich or poor, to pay our share of this. And taking the Gazette's figures of $127,000,• 000 as the War Debt of 1815, the share for each person (counting from the census of 1820,) was a little more than $l2, It a debt of thirteen dollars a head was a "crushing burden," how shall we desig nate a debt for each person of one hundred and seventy two dollars ! 1 Let the people say what sort of a burden it is. All nations have justly dreaded public debts and high taxes. Rulers have been displaced, ministershavebeert burledifOrit office, and dynasties destroyed, because they added to the public burdens or failed to diminish them. Yet the Gazette, with cool audacity, speaks of our monstrous debt as a "weight unfelt"—an airy pres ence, "imparting buoyancy, not causing depression"—and all because our stocks and bonds are held at home, and are not owned by foreigners ! As if it made any difference to the oppressed tax payer, whether his substance went to the support of a capitalist ite London or a "shoddy" parvenu in Boston I In the days of the U. S. Bank these same false teachers who now rejoice that oar public debt is held at home, told us how grand a thing it was to induce foreigners to send their money here for investment. And it is certainly true, that it we had borrowed money in Europe to carry on the war, we should not have been cotcpelled to stop specie payments, and , we might not have spent money so re^. l- 'ees'iy. Undoubtedly, tiro iliousitl/ ions of gold or its Equiva lent, would have bought more than three thousand millions of greenbacks redeem. able in U. S. Bonds, and it is certain that when gold is at 40 per cent. premium, and specie payments are not resumed, cur importations will cost us 40 per cent. more than they would if our currency was as good as that of the countries where we buy or borrow. And this 30 per cent ad vance on our importations would go far towards paying the interest of our public debt, if not pay it altogether. What dif ference does it make whether our gold is drained to Pay interest to foreign bond holders. or exchange to foreign mer chants But these are not all the blessings of this monstrous debt held in our country. "It binds," the Gazelle says, "thousands of influential citizens to the Government, and insures their fidelity to it." This is old and long exploded humbug. We are to infer that your bondholding millionaire will only be faithful to the Government on condition that the Government shall maintain him 1 The sum of his patriot• ism is to be determined by the rate of in he may receive ! And he is ex• pected in return to join the Government in plundering and oppressing the people I This is the monstrous idea advanced. But the Gazette should have learned that no Government in these days can be main tained by money alone ; and a Govern went that possesses the affections of the masses, who, of course are poor, can defy the enmity of the rich and influential, for whom alone the Gazette would carry on a Government. But the Gazette says the "manufactur er " is to be perpetually protected by this beneficent debt. If a policy that ruins our currency, making our country, by reason of inflated prices, the worst country io the world to buy in, and the best to sell in—if the benefit of all tariffs is to be virtually lost by over issues of paper money—then, perhaps, the manufacturer may be rescued and sustained on the paper bubble. But this fallacy has long been exploded. Just now, to be sure, manufactures flourish, be cause so much skilled labor is required to furnish munitions of war, vessels, .kc., &c. But when the demand for these shall cease, and all machinery, capital and tabor shall be turned again to the arts and wants of peace, we shall find that an immense debt. and a large emission of paper money will not protect the manufacturer. The Gazette should not deal in these false and vague generalities. It should tell the people of Allegheny county how they are to pay over two millions of inter est )early, and how they are finally to re lease themselve from the principal of the public debt, of which their share is $30,- 741,662 ! AN ABLE SPEECH We refer the reader to the able speech of Hon. JAMES CA.mPaku., of Philadelphia, published in to-day's paper. Since retir ing from the Post-office Department at the close of PresidentPEAß.co's administra Lion Judge CAMPBELL has not taken any part in political discussions. The peril ous condition of the country, however, and the high estimation in which he bolds Judges WOODWARD and LOWRIE, have in duced him to raise his voice in vindica- tion of those truths upon which the exis tence of our government depends. Judge CAMPBELL is one of the most thoughtful and virtuous of our public men. The Postoffice Department under his man agement was a model of economy and order. POSTPONED The meeting announced for M'Keesport this evening, has been, by order of the Committee, postponed. GEN. MeCLELLAN ----- Another Nailed The Pittsburgh Co,meleial, which seems t.) he serected to du the piiiicipal lying f..,r the shoddy candidate, announced the oth er day that Gen. McCLELLAN had express ed himself favorable to CURTIN' a election. We took pains to inform ourselves upon the subject and now authoritively state that Gen. GEO. B. MoCcru.ax, now in Philadel phia is most sollz:itous for the triumph of the Democrs tic candidate. Our correspon• dent at Philadelphia writes: "MCCLEL LAN is here; he is heartily in sympathy with the Democracy of Pennsylvania in this great struggle but he has a delicacy about making any public demonstrations He expresses himself freely, however, to all who speak to him on politics." An• other correspondent writes that "Gen. Mc CLELLAN will be with you at your mass meeting on Wednesday next." This is enough, and it efftctually disposes of the Commercial's slander cf MCCLELLAN, in stating that an officer of his purity could even think of supporting "a public plun derer With the remarkable propriety which has characterized Gen. MCCLELLAN'S con duct upon all occasions —some of them very trying—he does not think it compat- ible with his profession to enter actively into the political arena. In this he differs from the " Beast BUTLER " and other sti. en diaries of the administration, who earn their salaries by endeavoring to keep their masters in power. But, at the same time Gen. MCCLELLAN has no concealments re garding his political sentiments, and it would be remarkable indeed if he had. A man of his incrtility, and lofty purposes, leaving part:zan cc nv;ctier s cut of the question entirely, could not long hesitate between Judge WOODWARD and ANDREW _G. CrßTlN—the kat, a.nraii — Whose charac ter -- deSe;rTei - r7Ciion ; the other a man proved to be a "public plunderer" by his own party. There is nothing in the life and character of CURTIN for a high toned, sensitive soldier to admire ; and es a Penn sylvanian born, Gen. MCCLELLAN, like the rest of us, has good reason to despise him. • When our Southern counties were being polluted by the hoofs of re bel cavalry and our people plundered of their substance, Gen. McCi.ELLAN,then in New York,offer ed to lead the Pennsylvania militia and drive the invaders from our soil. Gov. ernor CcartN, instead of heeding him, ran off to Vlashington to ask assistance from the War Department, which was not grant ed. In this condition of affairs, the Gov ernor begging and the Adminibtration re- - fusing, the " Copperhead " GoN;ernors of New York and New Jersey came to the rest ue, and saved our State from rebel desolation. Thy gallant old State of Penn sylvania Wag hum bled and disgraced in the person of her Gevrrhor en the occa sion referred tn. He showed himself um able for the crisis th en upon us ; the War Department trea ed him and the State with cold contempt, and had it not., as we I...restated, been for New York and New iltrsey,l,En's rebel cavalry would have ut— terly desolated our State. Let the people reflect upon these things, together with Curtins established dishonesty and then let them vote for him if they can, COLONEL TOM IIIeDOVELL—GREEN llA('k Si ABOi'l' Our Hibernian acquaintance, familiarly known as TUAI MuDowni.i.—he who ran away from Ireland at the tender age of fourteen out of a pure love of liberty, and who, when the. vessel which bore the em bryo patriot wan in .ight. coining up the New York bay, eagerly plunged into the watt r and swam several miles to shore— has been drawing it rather strong-upon his Abolition employees. The Democrat, published at Johnstown, noticing Tom's performance in that neighborhood, re marks: .1 he rent-gad:, Tug Mcllowght., sp3ke for about twenty-11:e minutes at the 'Loyal League' Hall, on Monday night. In the course of his re marks he said ,hat ha 'did ntt care which way the war would end, he now had. enough to emi grate to another entutry and to support h'..5 wife and f.mily during their lives' This, taken in cnianemion with the fact that he showcd a hand ful , f greo:ibnek3 at a public house here, and re marked that was what he wat speaking for, illus trates at once the teasons he has for becoming one of the sloy.d.' Tog ha always bean a leech, and the et idonco of the party with whom he is now operating proves himself to be one cf the most eorrut t men in the State. Greenbacks must to exceedingly flush when such men—the dregs of the market—are bought up." If Tom has succeeded in making enough off the Abolitior contractors to decently support his family, no one who knows what his necessities were can blame him for his apostacy. Human nature is weak when strongly tempted, and Tom is not the person to resist even a moderate bribe. "In the days of innocence ADAM fell," and how could we expect Tom MeDownu. to resist temptation in these times of Ab olition villainy. But the fact is that Tom never did resist anything that promised a large percentage. Ile was always on hand where there was a chance for turning an honest penny, bat his position, moral and political, excluded him from the nice pickings which are gathered by other bor. ere. How could such a decayed and tat t3red individual resist the greenbacks which he flourished in Johnstown ? But before retiring to another country, we trust that Tom will attend to his multitude of "unadjusted balances" throughout this State and Washingtoh City. If he but pays five per cent. upon them, it will re quire all that he has gammoned the Aboli tionists out of, because Tam was of that class of people who look upon "laying out" as being an antiquated and vulgar I rac tiee. After his arrival in this country, he soon began to develop his peculiar talent, and readily took to many of our country. men's peculiar modes and practices. THE SOLDIERS' FRIEND We yesterday had a visit from one of the invalid soldiers from the camp at Chestnut Hill, near Philadelphia, who is expected to vote for CURTIN, but who won't. These poor aol,i.ere were flattered with the idea that inasmuch as Crwrix claimed their votc., he would at least secure their tramportation ; but no such thing They had to pay their fare home, and all for the privilege of voting for the " soldiers' friend, " A, G. CURTIN. Nor did they receive fur loughs either, bat tickets of leave incurring another loss to the soldiers and all for enjoying the luxury of voting the Aboli tion ticket. Oar gallant friend also in forms us that supplies for the camp at Chestnut Hal are furnished by contracts —that is so much is given for victualling each man, the conseyence of which 4.- A b f poor soldiers are nearly starved:. The nen tractors are'of course friends Of' Cuivrtx and are exceedingly anxious for his re-elee tion. - THE TESTIMONIAL TO GENERAL 3 teCLEILAN.
