Dlontgomeir DIalr'a Impudent Threat of
War.
That played-out politician and fossili.ed speci
men of conservatism, Montoombbt Blair, who
was ifrnoroiniously kicked out of President Lis
coln'8 Cabinet during tlio war, bpcause he had
become a stench in the nostrils of the loyal
people of the United State?, had the audacity
yesterday, at a Democratic (fathering up lu
Berks county, to threaten tne couutry with
another civil war, "the battle-fields of which
would bo in the North, while the South would
remain a unit," if the Union party should carry
the elections this tall. This Is the old disunion
Democratic ciy over again, "Vote as we dictate,
or we will rebel." It virtually Nays tci the peo
ple of the United 8tates,"You are to be controlled
In your political action, not by your judtrmeut
of what is right and just, and best for ihc coun
try, but by tbe arrogant dictation of a set of
political scoundrels, who will inaugurate civil
warif you do not yield to their demands."
We respectfully inform old Mr. Blair that
this kind of talk is "played out." We have lust
put down one Rebellion gotten up by the leaders
of the Democratic party, and we have the men
and the means and the will to put down
another. The people are in no mood to listen
to these impuoent threads from vile doinagogucs,
who seek to accomplish by intimidation what
they cannot by sound teasin. The people of
Pennsylvania are going to vote this fall as they
please tor just such meinbprs of Congress as
tbey please, without being frightened by these
Taporingo of Rebel sympathizers about "a civil
war, the battle fields of which will be at the
North," if they happen to cboose Republicans,
as tbey have tor some time b"en in the habit of
doing.
There is to us something inexpressibly offensive
in these attempts of desperate and abandoned
politicians to browbeat and bully the people.
" Do as we tell you, or there shall be war; vo'e
as we dictate, or civil strife shall be at yoar
doors." What language is this to use in a tree
country and to a free people ! What insuffera
ble arrogance in any set of men to thus put
themselves up above tbe people as their masters
and directors! How long would free govern
ment be possible, if tills appeal from the ballot
box to lorce were to be sanctioned t
If the Democrats may say, "We will rebel unless
our ticket is elected," so may the Republicans;
and then we have anarchy. Of course we have
no idea that these politicians, reckless and
abandoned a we know them to be, would dare to
attempt to carry their threats into execution;
but their mere utierance is an insult, most era's
and rankling, to every citizen who values the
purity and perpetuity of our republican system
of government. The very corner stone of our
free institutions is that all our polil'.cil questions
must be settled at the ballot-box, and Were alone.
He who threatens war if a certain ticket which
he does not like is suooessful, is a villain and
traitor at heart, and deserves the exeoration of
every good citizen.
In Congress, Yesterday.
Yeothrdat was a busy day in Congress. In the
Senate, the Finance Committee reported the
Miscellaneous Appropriation bill. The Funding
bill was considered, some amendments adopted,
and further action postponed until to-day. The
bill allowing bridges to be constructed over the
Mississippi and Missouri rivers was passed, with
amendments, which go to the House for concur
rence. Senator Pomeboy announced the death
of Senator Lank, ot Kansas. Remarks were
also made by Senators FIendbicks and Doo-
LITTLE.
In tbe House, the Senate amendments to the
bill reviving tbe rank of general in tne United
States army were passed. The contested case of
Koomtz vs. Coffboth was decided in favor ot
the former, and he was sworn in. The revised
Tariff bill was passed, and a joint resolution of
adjournment on the 25th instant was adopted.
The Senate bill to fix the number of Judges of
tbe Supreme Court of the United States was
passed. The Speaker presented a message from
the Senate, announcing the death of Senator
Lakb. Remarks were made by Representative
Clarke, ot Kansas, and Messrs. Fabquhar and
IS'lBLACK.
Backing out of IU
Judok Hughes, ot Indiana, a War Democrat,
and one of tbe Executive Committee ot a
Johnson Club at Washington, has repudiated
tbe Philadelphia Convention, on the ground that
the Copperheads have got control of it. He
thus addresses Qovernor Morton, of Indiana:
"Governor Morton: The proposed Phllaiel
pbia Convention tends to the absorption by the
Democratic party of the Conservative Umon
men ot the North. I am not at present ready
ior such a lusion, If it is to be. Let tbe Demo
cratic party first retire its anti-war leaders, and
let sufficient time elapse tor the srrass to gro w on
tbe graves of the heroic dead. For the present I
advbe all Union men to remain steadfast In their
own organization, hoping that its dissensions
may yet be healed, and to keep aloof from pro
ceedings which can only result in ttie election
oi the regular Democratic ticket in Indiana.
heartily approve of tbe President's policy, and
regard him personally with e-teui and friend
ship, and would cheerfully participate in any
meeting to express appreciation of his measures;
but I am not ready to furnUh materials to the
radicals by returning to power men who incited
resistance to laws made to fill up the ranks of
the army. I speak only tor myself, and no
other is responsible lor this communication.
"Jambs Hughks."
, Nb Indian Trhatt. The treaty with the
Choctaw and Chickasaw Indians, which has
been approved by tbe President and submitted
to tbe Senate for ratification, binds them never
to re-establish shivery, and to give forty acres of
land and tbe right ot suffrage to each adult
fnale Qftgro lately held la slavery among them.
Another War Pred'cted. i
Thb Winchester (Va.) Journal publishes the
report of t meeting held In Frederick oounty, to
elect delegates to the Philadelphia Convention
One of the speakers, a Mr. Uniai. W Riant, said
be was willing to Indorse all tbe Philadelphia call
but one paragraph, concerning the abandon tnont
of the right to secede. To this he objected. It
was not abandoned. He still held it as a right,
and be knew that the South hold it Tneir
opinions were notchanged by the adverse results
ot the war, and he wa opposed to a wholesale
indorsement of the call. He was opposed to
war; but, be asked, what would be the result it,
in the next Presidential (lection, the united
votes of the Northern Democrats anifthe South
ern States should give a ma)ority of the Presi
dential electors to their candidates, and, in the
official count, the Southern States should be
excluded? Thm, with the President at our
head, and a strong party in the Norib to support
tip, the case would be dlllercnl the table3 would
be turned. He saw war in the distance, and
advised to bo prepared tor it.
Logical. At the Democratic meeting held at
Reading, at which Montoohwbt Blub and G.
H. Pendleton linked hands, and tholr follow
eis huzzahed together, we find the folio vlni
resolution adopted:
"liesotved. That the tariff men of Pennsylvania
may see by the votes ot SeLators SuMnbb aud
WiLSon, ot Massachusetts, and Foster, oi Con
necticut, that the pro cjspvis of friendship tcr
Pfunvylvauts, by the radicals ot New England,
are as sincere as their professions ot regard lor
the Union of the States."
"Jack Bunsd" could not have given us more
able logic. If three out of twelve Senators vote
for a postponement ior four months, therefore
tbe New England States are all false to the
Union. Of coune one virtually follows as the
consequence of the other.
But here is another inicrence also which micrht
be drawn. If three Republican Senators, by
voting lor a postponement, declared themselves
enemies to tbe interests of Pennsylvania, what
do the votes of the Democrats ou tne same
side evince ? It Messrs. Sumner, Wilson, and
Foster are our State foes, where do Messrs.
Davis, Doolitile, Guthrie, Henderson, Hum-
DK1CKS, JollNBON, NUHMirll, NORrON, LilDDI.K,
Saulsbcry, and YViliey statu? Are not the
whole Detnocatic delegation our foes, and is nat
the party they represent ?

"The Money Marketclosed In rather a peculiar

Meanwhile there is a very active demand fer
money, and our bankers have enough to do to
satis!? their customers and keep the country
banks runulna. mill, as a great many time
bills have gone forward with produce, relief
will probably come at an early day in the shape
of heavy balances in the East. The rate of dis
count at the bank is steady at 10 per cent, per
mouth. The market lor Eastern exchauge
remains very hnn, but we nave no advance to
note In rates. The banks are selling to each
other at pur. but the demand at this rate is
greater than the supply."
