What They Promised.
Tns FRIBNDS or Gov. CURTIN PROMISED TIIS PEO
PLE THAT IF THEY WOULD EE-ELECT HIM, THE WAR
WORLD END IN 30 P4VS AND THERE WOULD BE NO MORS
DRAFTING. HOLD THEM TO THEIR PROMISES.
Call and Settle.
Our friends who are in arrears for subscrip
tion, advertising nnd job work, nre requested
to come forward nnd settle. If you have not
the money, come and settle at any rate. We
liavo accounts running for six years and up
wards qnd they must be settled. Our friends
will bcir us out in saying that we have never
pressed them. Ilencc it is hut right that they
should show some appreciation of our leniency
by promptly responding to this call. We hnve
old debts to pay and those who owe ua old debts
must raise the money for us. Come and settle!
The Curtin Frauds.
So glaring and undisguised arc some of
the frauds committed at the late election by
by the Abolitionists, that we are told the
Democrats intend to investigate them be
fore the legislature when that body shall
proceed to count the returns. In the first
ward in the city of Pittsburg, one hundred
and sixty men have sworn that they voted
for Woodward, whilst the election board of
this ward returned but seventy-seven for that
candidate. In Allegheny county, several
camps of soldiers (some of them from Can
ada) were permitted to vote. In Lycoming
the same frauds prevailed. In Washington
several soldiers took possession of one of
the polls, drove away the election officers
by force of arms, and stuffed the ballot-box
with Curtin tickets. In Philadelphia thou
sands of Abolitton voters from other states
aie said to have been colonized. In short,
in almost every township in the State, frauds
of this sort were committed by the Aboli
tion wire-pullers, and there can be no doubt
that upwards of 20,000 fraudulent votes
were polled for Curtin. We hope our friends
in this county will at once inquire into the
honesty and fairness of the voting done at
their respective polls. Democrats must look
to their rights, if they would ever be suc
cessful in wresting power from the hands of
their unscrupulous foe. Go to work, ascer
tain the facts in the case of every man who
voted in your respective districts concerning
whose right to vote doubts were entertained,
and especially inquire into the citizenship
of EVERY STRANGER who voted at
yonr polls; and then make lists of such
men, specifying their status as citizens, tax
payers, &c., and send the lists to the Chair
man of tho Democratic County Committee
or to the editor of this paper. If we per
mit the perpetrators of these frauds to es
cape without any attempt to rebuke and
punish them, we are derelict in a duty which
we owe to each other as citizens and which
is most essential to pure and good govern
ment Let this duty be? discharged.
300,000 More.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Abo
lition canvassers promised during the late
campaign, that if Curtin would be rc-clect
ed there would lie no more drafting and the
war would end in thirty days, we have a
call from the President for 300,000 more
men. If this number of volunteers is not
furnished by next January, the President
politely informs us, lie will resort to draft
ing and fill the places of the lacking volun
teers with conscripts. Now, let the men
who persuaded their fellow-citizens to vote
the Abolition ticket, by representing that
there would be no more drafting in the c
vent of Curtin a election, volunteer and save
the men they thus deceived from the new
Conscription. Come, ye men who voted
for Curtin and an indefinite prolongation of
the war, step forward and do your share in
the fighting. Abraham bids you come.
Surely you will not refuse to hearken to his
call. That would be rank disloyalty. Come!.
Shoulder arms! Double quick, March!
wThc Somerset Herald has a picture of
a 'possum rolling a cannon-ball with one
paw and performing certain triumphant gy
rations on his nose with the other. We
presume the picture is intended to be em
blematic of the course of the editor of that
paper, who, although pretending to be great
ly in favor of handling cannon-balls, is re
ally only playing 'possum , and whilst he
kelps the Tax-ball rolling with one hand,
puts the digit of the other on his nose and
wriggles his fingers disdainfully in the faces
of the people who pay him tribute.
■rWe had the pleasure of u call from Col.
Scull, of the Somerset Herald, on Thursday
morning last. Long may be wars —the grun
taskt.
yThe conscripts of Somerset county are
daily passing through this place on their
way to Chambersburg. Somerset county
gave some 1300 majority in favor of Curtin
and the Conscription. Since the war is so
popular in that county, we presume hut few
of its conscripts will "commute," or apply
for exemption. Doubtless, all of them will
dou "the blues" and nut into practice their
theory of "crushing the rebellion." We
shall see.
Abolitionists, we believe, bad a
jollification at Bloody Ilun, one night last
week. It is said to have been "flat, stale
and unprofitable." The Jacobins can't re
joice over their apparent victory, for the rea
son that they /enow it was obtained by fraud
l uleut means, and they are quite certain that
lif justice be done, it will yet be turned into
| defeat.
CrAt the instance of the proprietor of the
Bedford Inquirer, the law prevailing in Somer
set county giving the official and court adver
tising to two papers in that count}', was extend
ed to this county. Not desiring to light hiin
pecuniarily, we made no objection. In 1801
sotneof tho Attorneys came to tho conclusion that
this law was not binding upon Administrators,
Executors, Trustees and Auditors. W hereupon
in 1802, the Legislature passed a law repealing
the one spoken of and compelling Administra
tors, Executors, Trustees and Auditors, to pub
lish all their advertisements in two papers, ex
cept in cases of estates not of n clear value ex
ceeding one thousand dollars. This law is in
force at present and to make settlements of es
tates valid, must be lived up to. Nevertheless
some Abolitionists who have charge of the set
tlement of estates, in their bitterness toward
the editor of this paper, refuse to obey this law
by withholding their advertising from us, nnd
thus place in jeopardy the interests of those for
whom they arc acting. Now, we care not for
the patronage which the gangrened souls of these
miserable creatures deny us, but we give them
fair notice that they must live up to this law,
or they will he made to do it; and further that
the time inay shortly arrive when tho county
printing which lias so long been a precious gift
from the Democracy to tho Abolition organ,
will be given to tho paper having the largest
circulation in the county and not to both alike.
THE PROGRESS OF NEGROISM. —The Philadel
phia Aye Rays:
Wednesday evening (tho night of the election)
at the Church of the Epiphany, Jtov. Stephen
H. Tyng, in an address made by him, said a
mong other things that tho African race was the
embodiment of tho highest type of humanity,
and that ns tho emotions are superior to the in
tellect, so is tho African the superior of the
Caucasian.
We commend the above to some of the war
clergy in this neighborhood, who are sometimes
given to preaching politics from the pulpit.
Tyng and his confreres first introduced the im
pious heresy of political preaching, nnd now,
seeing that their followers have greatly increased
in numbers, they not only expect them to preach
and pray for the war, but also to echo their
shameful and degrading theories concerning
what they consider the object of the war, viz :
the elevation of the negro above the social and
political status of the white man. Pause nnd
think, dear misguided friends! Can you believe,
at tho same time, in both the sincerity and san
ity of men like this Tyng, whoso teachings you
have hitherto permitted to be your guide, when
they tell you that the African is superior to the
Caucasian ?
tJ'lt is now permitted to be known that
Judgo Woodward received at least 254,000
votes. Tho whole vote cast for Governor, in
1800, was 406,000. Had Henry D. Foster
received the vote cast for Judge Woodward, be
would have been elected by a majority of 12,-
000. It is a littlo singular that a majority of
the votes cast in 18G0, should not be a majority
of the votes cast in 1803. when 200,000 sol
diers have left the state since 1800.
3-W c are asked by a correspondent who
has a wager on Curtin's majority not being over
15,000, whether he ought to give up the stake.
We say, no. Wait till the Legislature shall
have counted the votes and Curtin shall have
been inaugurated. The Pittsburg l'ost says
that the telegram from Harrisburg, stating that
Curtin's majority is 15,343, and Agnew's 10,-
000, is incorrect and sent out for the purpose of
enabling Abolitionists to "lift their bets." Cur
tin's majority will not reach those figures.
tjrThe Independent Telegraph Company are
now engaged in putting up their line from Phil
adelphia to Pittsburg, via Bedford. At last
accounts they had reached Somerset. We are
informed that this line will not bo under tho
control of Secretary Stanton, nor will it have
any political bias. If so, it will bo a great
blessing. Apropos of this COIN pany, the erudite
Inquirer man styles it "the lularul Tolcgraph
C 0.," for fear, we suppose, lest some of those
readers of his whom lie made believe that Cur
tin would end the war in thirty days, might
imagine it to be the "Submarine Telegraph
Company."
fcrTlie "Copperheads" are all killed—de
stroyed like the host of Sennacherib. So says
tho knowing editor of the Inquirer. But we
don't believe him. In a few weeks—perhaps
this week—he will see as many snakes as ever
and call as loud for their destruction as ho did
before the election. Mark it!
CONSCEIVXS. —The Syracuso Constitutionalist
argues that—
"A man coerced against his will,
To go to war. will seldom kill."
Those Awful '''Copperheads,"
Governor Seymour, of New York, und Gov
ernor Parker, of New Jersey, both Democrats,
are the only Executives in all the North, who
have yet responded to Lincoln's proclamation
calling for 300,000 more men. They recom
mend the people of their resjieetive states to
volunteer. Not a single Abolition Governor
has yet responded. Are not Seymour and Par
ker patriots, and is not the laggard Curtin more
of a "Copperhead" than either?
Rosecrans Removed.
Gen. Eosccrans lias heen removed from the
command of the Army of the Cumberland for
losing the battle of Cbiekamauga, and the Jac
obin hounds that lately licked his very feet,
are now pursuing him with foaming jaws, ready
to tear him to pieces at the bidding of their
masters.
CJrHcforc Abolitionism bad obtained a foot
liold in Cumberland Valley, quiet and order
reigned in that onee peaceful district. How is
it now ? Riot, discord and violence hold their
orgies there, and all in the interest of their pa
rent, Abolitionsm. For our part wc counsel
the Democrats of Cumberland Valley to refrain
from giving any provocation to their political
opponents —be not the aggressors—but yield not
a jot of your civil and political rights to any
matt or set of men living. We counsel peace
and harmony. Hut the Bedford Inquirer still
endeavors to keep the fires of dissension burning,
by publishing letters relating to political mat
ters in Cumberland Valley, tilled with false
hoods and reeking with blackguardism. Doubt
less these letters will continue to appear, as it
is the object of the Abolitionists to sow discord
and enmity among .'lie people of this township.
Wc, therefore, give notice, once for all, that we
shall not make any reply to those scurrilous
productions, resting well assured that their ob
ject is well known and that their own palpable
mendacity is their sufficient < onfutation.
iKTA large black bear made a "raid" on Mr.
John Amos' cornfield near this place, a few even
ings ago. A number of enthusiastic and ex
cited sportsmen at cnce gave him chase, but
Bruin eluded pursuit nnd effected his escape.
P. S. We learn that a bear supposed to be
thcidentical "individual" that made the incursion
into the above-mentioned corn-lield, has been
killed by Messrs. Shus and Richey, of Snake
Spring Valley. The tragic upshot of the raid
of poor Bruin, whom hunger must have driv
en from his native thicket, proves that it is bel
ter to
"Bear the ills we have
Than fhj to others that ice knmc not of."
(Srllouscholdcr's majority over Baer is 1707.
Mr. Baer ran about 100 ahead of his ticket in
Huntingdon, 200 in Somerset and 31 in this
county. Considering tho circumstances, Mr.
Baer made a very creditable run.

The 300,000 More—The Kind Wanted.
YOUNG WOMANSTOWX, Oct. 23, 1 SOD.
Editors I'atriol and Union:
Missus. EDITORS:—WiII you be kind enough
to say to your numerous patrons—for many of
thorn will not take particular notice of the Prcs
ident's recent call for 300,000 volunteer troops
that Mr. Lincoln docs not want any to respond
to the call but Republicans and Abolitionists, and
he wants them earnestly and willingly to come
on immediately, lie don't want Democrats to
come; because, if we believe him, his editors,
public speakers and advocates, ice are traitors,
disunionists, copperheads, and of course he (font
iraut us; for lie says he wants "I.OYAI, UNION
MEN." Now, Messrs. Editors, if any of us were
to go, no doubt wo would he rejected, and would
have to pay our own expenses to and from
Washington, with the mortification of being
told personally that wc were not the kind he
called. JACK.
REMARKS.—The fact stated by our correspon
dent isglaringar.d indisputable. Was notLicu
tenant Edgerly dismissed the service, by order
ot the President, for "circulating copperhead
tickets'' in New Hampshire—said tickets being
the regular Democratic tickets ? Was it not
Stanton who talked of "driving them [the Dem
ocrats] back hissing to their holes ?" Did not
Halleck write that the army would place its heel
upon their necks ? And, finally, did not Stan
ton, after ascertaining the election of Curtin,
congratulate Forney upon the result of the
Pennsylvania election, by telegram from Wash
ington, in the following words :
"WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.—Thanks for your
telegram. All honor to the Keystone State!
She upheld the Federal arch in June, and, with
steel and cannon shot, drove rebel invaders from
her soil; and now, in October, slio lias again
rallied for the Union, and overwhelmed the foe
at the ballot box.
"EDWIN M. STANTON."
Thus identifying the Democratic party—by
the use of the word "foe," in relation to what
preceded it—with the "rebel invaderst"
Arc not these things so ? And if they arc,
can it be supposed that snch men—designated
by the President, ins ins Commander
in-Chief, his press, his speakers, and bis party
as "Copperheads," "traitors," "secession sym
pathizers," "disloyal," &c.—are wanted in the
army of "loyal Union men" called for? Pre
posterous! And yet it is almost certain that
the bulk of the 300,000 will be composed of
these same abused.auddespisod "Copperheads."
[by request.]
From the Presbytenart,
Paying Cliurch Debts.
Messrs. Editors : —Some of your correspotvl
onts are urging upon churches the payment of
their debts. This is a movement in the right
direction, and it is hoped the matter may nncst
the attention of all churches in debt. There is
force in the remark of Dr. J. YV. Alexander,
thtit these debts arc a species of jiious fraud,
for, as a general thing, when a church is in debt',
the minister has the interest to pay ; that is, in
one way and another, it diminishes to that a
inount his salary, or renders the payment of it
dillicult, irregular, and with more or less of an
annual arrearage. The church debt often pre
vent! the full and prompt payment of the sala
ry, and lieuee the minister suffers.
This leads to a word on another kind of church
debts—debts due to pastors for their services.
In many cases there is an annual arrearage; and
this is sometimes suffered to accumulate until it
becomes quite formidable to the delinquent
church, and very inconvenient to the suft'eriii"
pastor. Sometimes this leads to the severance
ol the pastoral relation : and the pastor retires
with a burdened heart, and a sum due him which
may never be paid. It is one of the faithful
minister's grealest trials to meet a people Sab
bath after Sabbath who constantly fail in their
pecuniary engagements. This is all wrong.—
There should be an annual settlement, and no
arrearages should bo suffered to arise—they
should not lie suffered to continue for an hour.
Yet at this very time, it is to ho feared, many
churches are indebted to their pastors, or to those
who have been their pastors; and why should
there not be an effort made immediately to pay
off these debts? No doubt the pastors would
feel better, and labor better, if it were done;
and 110 doubt the churches would feel better,
and be much more likely to prosper. For my
own part, I do not see how a church can hope
to prosper—how it can hope for the Divine bles
sing, while it withholds what is due to him who
labors in word and doctrine. If the wages of
the common laborer, when kept back, cries for
vengeance, will God be indifferent to theory of
the wages due his servants, and long withheld
from them? No, verily.
Surely this matter is deserving oC serious con
sideration; and I would suggest to the proper
authorities of every church to inquire whether
the pastor has received his due, and if not, that
an ellort be made at once to pay him for his pa
tient and prayerful toils. Pay your debts—your
church debts—all your debts, especially the
debts due your pastor—it may bo long due, and
of which he and his family arc in great need.
Pay your debts—pay your church debts—pay
your minister! " W. J. M.

A Complete View of the Late Rebel
Movements.
The Object of the Advance.
LEE ACROSS THE RAPIDAN.
ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,Warrcnton, Va., |
Thursday, Oct. 22, 1803. J
General Charaoter of the Campaign.
The Army of the Potomac has at length set
tled down after its great race up and down Vir
ginia. The whirl, and bustle and confusion of
the backward and forward movement have so
fur given place to calmer moods tluit it is possi
ble now to survey with some satisfaction the
series of complicated and exciting events whose
relations and upshot it was at tne time impossi
ble to grasp.
It must be acknowledged that the campaign
of the past fortnight lias not been one that lias
brought much glory to either army. The ope
rations, with the exception of a variety of skir
mishes and the ono considerable brush at liris
ttH) have all been of the kind included under the
term stratei/y —that is, marches und manoeuvres
out of sight of the enemy. The rebels have in
flicted no great damage on us. We have inflic
ted no great damage on the rebels. In truth,
the real results of this inraswe ntorment on the
part of Gen. Lee are to he sought for not so
much in anything that, has heen accomplished here
in I 'irginia, as in the relations of operations here
to the whole Jield of war. In this regard it re
mains to be seen how far the progress and for
tunes of the war will le affected by the late
rebel movement. At present it assumes the
character of a diversion in favor of operations
in the southwest. There is not the shadow of
a doubt that a considerable portion of the troops
with which I>ce threw hack Meade are now on
their way to reinforce the rebel array in Ten
nessee for active work against some portion of
the great line now being held by the Union for
ces, from Chattanooga to the Gaps of Virginia.
Rebel Theory of Lce'3 Forward Move
ment.
I have had frequent opportunity of learning
the rebel theory of Lee's late movement, having
conversed with many citizens of the country
through which we have during the past two or
three days passed in the wake of Lee's army
and they all tell the same story. It is that the
movement was made for the. purpose of throw
ing the Army of the Potomac back on Wash
ington and then utterly destroying the railroad
connecting Meade's army, on the line of the
Rapidan, with its base, thus relieving Richmond
li om the standing menace which our occupation
of that front of operations held out; exhaus
ting the season during which it is possible for
us to make a fall campaign and throwing us o
ver till next spring when the dissolution of our
army and prospective rebel operations in the
Southwest would secure them peace.
These views were stated to mo as those of
; the rebel leaders by (among many others) an in
telligent and cultivated Englishman named
Green, who lives in the style of an English gen
tleman on a charming estate at Greenwich, a
few miles nortli of Warrenton and with whom
j Generals Lee and Ewell, and their respective
[ staffs, stayed last Sunday, while on the retreat.
The Destruction of the Eailroad.
This work lias been very thoroughly done.
Lee's whole army having been engaged on it
for two days From Ilristoe to the ltappahan
ll"> J "" 1 ' *!•• I" nurnt,
culverts blown up, ties taken up and burnt,
rails twisted and rendered useless, rout died up
etc., etc., The engineers say that it will be at
least a month before it can be sigain put in run
ning order, It is with no small mortification,
therefore that we have to confess tlio rebels
have achieved an end fully commensurato with
the labor and risk of the campaign. The reb
el theory, so far as it consigns the army of the
Potomac to a role of inactivity in Virginia is
accepted bi/ our Generals, and it will depend on
the conduct of those who direct military opera
lion over the whole theatre of war, how far
the pass to which the rebels have brought affairs
in Virginia will aflcet the fortunes of"the war
on other fields.
Mr. Chase asi> Mr. Vallandigham. —It is
worthy of remark that more men have voted
to make Mr. Vallandighatn governor than ever
cast their suffrages to put Mr. Chase in that
olfico. The first time Chase was elected, eight
years ago, he had 146,000 votes. The second
time he was chosen was in 1857, he had 160,-
000 votes. Vallandighnm now lias at least
1 <5,000 votes. Vallandigham defeated, there
fore, lias more friends in tho state than Chase
had when lie was elected.

A FORTUNE FOR ALL!
EITHER MEW OR WOMEW !!
N'O HUMRL'G, but on kntiukly nkw thing.
Only three months in this country! No claptrep
operation to gull the public, but a genuine money
making thing! Read the Circular of instruction
once only, and you will understand it perfectly. A
Lady has just written to me that she is making as
high as TWENTY DOLLARS SOME DAYS! giv
ing instructions in this art. Thousands of soldiers
are making money rapidly at it. No person has to
be urged to patronize it. It is a thing that takes
better than unything ever before offered. You can
make money w ih it home or abroad—on steamboats
or railroad cars, end in the country or city. You
will be pleased in pursuing it, not only because it
will yield a handsome income, but also in conse
quence ot the general admiration which it elicits.
It is pretty much all profit. A mere trifle is neces
sary to start with.
There is scatcely one person out of thousands who
ever pays any attention to advertisements of this
kind, thinking they are humbugs. Consequently
those who do send for instructions will have a broad
field to make money in. There is a class of persons
in this world who think that because they have been
humbugged out of a dollar or ao, that every thing
that is advertised is a humbug. Consequently they
try no more. The person who succeeds is the one
that keeps on try ing until he hits something that
pays him.
This art cost me one thousand dollars, and I ex
pect to n.ake n.ouey out of jt—and all who purchase
the art of rnt will do the 6ame. One Dollar sent tu
me will m>ure the prompt return ola card of in
structions in the art. The money will hi returned to
