ALTOONA, PA •t 7 ■ - WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 23. 1863. Train Own. Hoaeorans. Fpr aome dajs past we iiave felt rather gtoqnij in consequence of the unfavora ble reports from the late engagement be tween the forces of Gens. Rosecrans and .Bragg* the Ijatter being reinforced by sev ergi divisions of Gen. Lee’s army, and also from Beauregard's army at Charles ■ ton. Gen.; Lee is said to have been in command. ; The fighting on Saturday and Sunday is said to have been terrific. Al one time the rebels were driven back, and again they drove the Union forces, and on Sunday night each 'army occupied about the same positioh held when the fight com menced.’ On Sunday night, Roaecrans moved bis ariny back to Chattanooga, the fight having taken place some ten miles South-east of that place. This movement was rendered necessary jn con sequence of the heavy reinforcements the rebels were;receiving, and in order to se eure a favorable defensive position for the Union forces until reinforcements, on the way to fiosecrans, should arrive. The first reports received stated that Gen. Roseau ns’army'had been cut to pieces and was rapidly retreating, fol lowed by U*e rebels, but later news states that ail wiß yet be right—the Govern ment having more cheering information from that quarter. Preparations hare been made for meeting every emergency that is likely to occur in this field of ope ration. The rebels have a decided advantage from, the fact that they can concentrate their forces much more rapidly than the Government; yet we do not despair ol Gen. Bosecrans’ success iu finally defeat ing the whole crew. While they arc fighting Bosecrans, they may leave a hole open some place else, which will let a Union army into the dominions of Jefi' Davis. ffiff’The muddy pool of politics has spread itself .so widely that it is now almost impossible to write or speak on any of the- subjects connected with the present rebellion, or the events transpi ring in the political world, without being charged with dabbling in its waters. We have no aspirations, politically, nor do we covet the name of politicians; ncverthe less, «e pay some attention to these mat ters, and are; not entirely ignorant of what is going on. We read the papers of both political parties, and And much in both which we condemn and disbelieve. But we are not Wow going into a criticism on , either—omr purpose being simply to ask a few questions, which shall be stated plainly, and we desire pltqn answers.— These questions have occurred to others besides ourselves, and stagger those who are disposed to act and vote with the Democratic party and yet wish to throw their influence on the side of the Union. , Ist. Why is it that all the refugees from tbe South, immediately upon their arrival in the free States, espouse the cause of the Administrationand all who we in this State at this time, are either writing or speaking in favor of the re election of Andrew G. Curtin as Gov ernor? 2d. Why is it that none of these refu gees espouse the Democratic cause, or take the stump for Woodward? Bd. Why is it that so many prominent Democrats in this and other States have left their pgity and are now found writing and speaking in favor of the Administra tion and the jin-election of Gov. Curtin? We refer to such men as Gen. B. F. But lervjf Mamachusetts; Gen. Logan, of Gen-; Eoeecrans, of Ohio; Gov. •iSuton, of : Tennessee; Matthews, of Maryland ; AJI. Chase, of New York; Daniel Dougherty, N. P. Brown and Hon. W. E. Lehman, of Philadelphia; J udge Shanpqn, of Pittsburgh; John Scott, of Huntingdon, and many others we might name. 4th. Why Is it that ho prominent men Republican or Union party have gone over to Woodward and engage? ip stumping fhft (State for him * 5 th, Why fa it that the Richmond Jgh *nd other Rebel papers d°sire the ‘ Seeaii, wc^lumn. . l% B *’ er W® «f such plain answers to ithe Acre -xi»y > jpve ns the key to those hut Whst Does it Mean ? The following article, from the Rich mond of tlte 7th inst., requires considerable explanation at the hands of the speakers and the writers of the party whicU is to be benefited by a rebel . raid. Why ;Would a rebel raid prove beneficial to the; Democratic party t and why would the succeseof the Democratic party prove beneficial to the rebels * We ask these questions in all candor. We give the article that all may read it. Let every Union man fairly understand the issue ere he casts his vote. Read and reflect: — The success of the Democratic party would be no longer doubtful should General Lee once mom «lvance on Meade. Parties in the United States are so nearly balanced that the least advantage thrown in favor of one will insure its success. Should the Confederate army remain quiescent on the banks of the Kapahannock, the boastful brag gadocio of Yankee reports will be confirmed, and Lincoln and Halleck will point in triumph to the crippled condition of the Confederate army ns confirmation of the great,victory. won jn Pennsyl vania,' The Democrats, nnahla to gainsay such evidence, will be constrained to enter the contest for Spqakerahip shorn of the principal pa.t of their strengfit— the disgraceful mismanagement and conduce of the war. s Gehi Lee must turn pqlitieign as well ns war rior; we believe he will prove the most suc cessful |politician the Confederacy eve* produced. He may so move and direct his ami v as to produce political results, which, in their baring opal this war, w|U prove more effectual than the bloodiest victories. Let him drive Meade into Washington and be, will again rise the spirits of the Democrats, confirm,the timid,.and give confidence to the wa vering.; He will embolden the Pence party should lie again cross the Potomac, for he will show the people pf Pennsylvania how little security they nave from Lincoln Tort the protection of their homes. ,; It matters not Whether the advance Ik made for the purpose of permanent occupation or simply for a grand raid ; it will ’hat, in.the third yearof the war, thev aie sB far from ihe subjugation of the Confederate Slates that the.defence of Maryland and Pennsylvania tas nor been secured. A fall campaign into Pennsylvania, with the bands pf our soldiers united, not for-indiscrimi nate plunder—bnt a campaign for a systematic tnd organized retaliation and punishment, would arouse the popular mind to the uncertainty and insecurity of Pennsylvania. This would react upon the re|>resentalives in Congress, strengthen .ng the-Democrats and mollifying even the hard shell of fanaticism. Ihe damage which the last campaign inflicted, if augmented by another this fall, when presented to the Lincoln Government wqnld unless paid, greatly exasperate the people against an Adminis tration which neither defends the State, nor reitn bnrses its citizens for losses which its own imbe cility has produced. And if these damages are |taid the debt is increased, the taxes raised, and he burdens imposed will accomplish the same end. , Let the great and important fact bo constantly kept in a’ tangible and threatening aspect before he people of Pennsylvania, that notwithstanding hare opened the Mississippi and are besieg ing Charleston, and threatening East Tennessee, mil Georgia, and Alabama, that, notwithstanding ill this, Pennsylvania is hot safe from invasion. md ( Washington City is again heieagured in thi bird year of the war. The road to peace lies -lirongli Pennsylvania via Washington, Fbosi Chaei.estox. —The latest from Charleston informs us that Gem Gilmore is repairing Fort Wagner and Battery Gregg for the purpose of shelling the reb orn'of Fort Moultrie and that vicinity.— A battery of heavy guns is also being placed iu position for the purpose of shel ling Charleston. Admiral Dahlgren has been withdrawn from the command of the -fleet, in Charleston harbor, and Admiral Farrngut placed in charge. A difference between Gen. Gilmore and Dahlgren loused the change. Union Meeting.—Hon, L. W. Hall, of this place, will address the people of Petersburg, Huntingdon county, and vi cinity, on the issues involved in the pres ent election, this (Wednesday) evening.

By the President. (*HW) WM. H. BEWARIJ, Secretary Of State. Letter from “August Sontag.” Philadelphia. Sept. 21. 1863, Membs. Editors :—Do you; drink “ Kisaingen water" in Altoona ? Kvery body drinks it here— that is every hotly that ,Ims a liven—instead of champagne. My drink and meat to-day, how ever. is “tea and toast," with a determination to send “ right about" a headache that has persisted in sticking “ closer than a brother" to me for the last twelve hours, despite all my remonstrances against •such a superfluous affection. Coffee is said to he an infallible remedy, hut we have so many kinds of coffee current here how, tliat it will to make a selection. I confess to be a vety Mussul man in my affection for the roasted berry, a cup of its amber-bued and glorious infusion far trans cending, in thy opinion, even the creamy overflow of Heidsiek or the gorgeously colored body of “old crusted port.” But if you really love coffee, what do you think of the manifold and economic repre sentatives, now so numerous in the grocery win dows and “down i' the mouth" of the great public. Have you lasted the “Eureka?” Have you uos triled the “Celebrated East India?” Have yon alarmed your palate with the tar famed Golden Rule?" or have you—for philosophy might venture on such a shuddering experiment, perchance—ever disgusted your lietle' nature with a sip of “ rye” coffee, “wheat,” or “malt”ditto, and soon? I'cr adventure, you have, in the honest spirit of inquiry, which is said to be the characteristic of this intel ligent age, essayed one or all of these things, and it so, you will admit that some of these coffees are wondei fully good imitations of the dientical thing, just ns some of the counterfeit fifty cent post age-notes now amazingly embarrass the best of us to sort them out, without a minute investigation, from the genuine Government article. Economy is the order of the day now, for who is “ making his salt." not to mention his salary, except those fortunate gentlemen to whom the war brings in crease of business, and to whom the destruction of armiesonlv means the supply, at exhorbitanl prices, of so many more coats, shoes, &c., for the succes sors of the sacrificed. Why even the law, with its, has lost all its profitable characteristics. Our court ealedars have run down to “ small potatoes.” I could name a number of lawyers in thiscitv, who used to do a flourishing business, who will <j<ion have to pettifogg upon the “ no-cure-no-pav” prin ciple, and offer to accept business without making any charge for services, without successful, unless there he a change in the politics of our country. — Apropos, politics. We have some political excite ment in this direction, but, as Sontag does not want to be Governor, lie keeps cool, and don’t care the value of a roast peanut altout politics or politieans generally. As the election day ap proaches the noise and confusion gradually in creases, and soon we shall look for a monomania to seize the whole community, and some of them go “ mad as a march Imre.” If I could afford it, 1 should certainly'go up in a balloon, for the nonce, just to avoid the utter desolation of lining the only calm and philosophical mind amid the general delirium. But we can't afford such a lux ury. The times forbid it. If I prove particularly sensible upon this subject—Heaven f n tend, how ever, for I hate to he exeemric—pardon me, and attribute it to my morality und the environing cir cumstances. Contemplating the wtmle field with an impartial eye, I must say that the opposing forces a.e well matched, that both arc sanguine, full of spirit and “eager for the fray." But I really think Curtin will triumph in the end.— However, that remains to be seen, aud we shall not be left in saspense long. I What a lime the Coal dealers have had here, with the-puhlic, tiring to keep up the price of coal. When our State was invaded the price of coal rushed up from seven to ten dollars a ton, while some of the dealers refused to sell for less than twelve, pnd others talked of holding it on to get fifteen or twenty. But down it has come with a crush, and the public heart rejoiced, and the heart of the coal-dealer waxed sad. It is a delightful struggle Isnween the would-be-sellers and buyers, the one to keep the price in stata quo, and the other to reduce it again, and which party will whip in the end remains to be seen. How man in af fected, sometimes, by the aspect of his pocket-book I When he is making money “Our Country” is the cry, and down goes the greenbacks, or at least a promise to that effect. When we lose money, we I button tip our pockets with closed lips and hoarsely whisper, “ not a cent for tribute 1” The coal melt are only anthracite illustrations of the fact. From .Maine to California it is the same; man is but man everywhere. We had an unusual occurrence take place a short time ago which has caused some sen sation among the fair sex. A* verdant t ouug lady" was captured by the police, who was disguised in male habiliments and seeking an opportunity to go to sea. ns a cabin boy, for her health. She had I elo|ied from her country home, she said, because she had a liver complaint which nothing but a visit to old Neptune would cure, and dunning the 1 costume of the male sex, she fancied she soon I could possess herself of the remedy. Alas! fori her calculations. She bad no sooner arrived here ( titan she was made to feel her helplessness, and- ; she quickly realised her situation and accosting the first policeman she met told her store. He conveyed her to head-quarters and her speedy res- ' toration to female habits and the femenine appear- : ance was the result. We have one class of people ! in Philadelphia who command “the situation” in ! dealing with capital, and that is servants. Ser- j vants, and particularly female servants, ask. what i they please for their service and get, I am told,' jnst about what they choose to ask. The hoop-skirt factories advertise largely for female operatives and pay such good prices, that they quite nse up the great body of unemployed industrials, ns al most any girl, however sl nptd. can work on a hoop skirt—or at least wear one—if she can wash a dish or peel a potato.: The demand tor feqiale servants exceed the supply, and those who prefer housework to fuctoty labor, entertain the highest , notions of the extraordinary value of their euisin arv exertions. The most unsophisticated genius asks seven dollars per month, even if unable to distinguish a flat-iron from a coal-scuttle, while more ex|ierienced “ help” require ten and twelve dollars per momhwith “coalitions.” Tiimj con ditions are commonly a good bed, a good table, one night out evev week, Itesidcs all of Snndar, and the liberty of having their “consins'calltosee them in the kitchen. There may be some slight exaggerat ion in all this, as I obtained the informa tion from a party who was pretty sore on the sub ject, hut I suppose their must lie some truth in it. We are indebted to the repirter of the SunAtg Trimxaript fur the following hit at “codfish aris tocracy." ‘‘There was a grei t udi at tlte Acad emy of Music on Wednesday evening. Among the dense throng were niiiiifiers who have sud denly been financially elevated in consequence of this “cruel war,** Codfish and shoddy aristocracy swelled out In silks, satins. “ loves of bonnets,'” &e„ &e. Among the crowd a young lady dropped a .watch key, which she missed tqion nearing the door. It was valued as a gift. While looking! around for it a neatly dressed boy stepp xl op and said, “madam here is your key I found it on the floor.!' It was transferred to the gloved hand of the lady, who was hanging on the arm of a gen tleman, who immediately pulled our his port-mon naie from which be selected a fifty-cent postage currency to reward the boy for his honesty, when the young lady immediately interposed, and said : Oh. let me. reward him ! I have some small change, and so saying she tendered the lad a Jive-cnt note. The boy railed upon Mr. Bulkier. at the Central Station, next day. to whom he delivered the fivc-eont note, with the request that the detec tive force should find out the whereabouts of the lady and return her the note, and if not successful in tracing het out, to put it on interest fin- the ben efit of the institution organized for (lie subsistence of decayed members of the codfish aristocracy.”— We, also, attended this exhih tition, and encoun tered—God forgive ns!—a speci-s of animal which a zoologist would define a “ swell," where upon ice took a few notes —not greenbacks—for j the benefit of our friends generally, which can tie i seen upon application at No i. Smith’s Island. The erudite .Walker*affirms a thing to he fashionable which is approved by cus’oni or made ; according to the ’• mode,” and ’one is fashionable who has rank above the vulgar! Whether the d-finition be wholly serious, or acknowledges a tinge of sarcasm, it hits the case very fairly. The patronizing term “approved by custom” for exam ple. nothing could be more felicitous. To feel that we are approved by those for whom wie cherish profound respect, is no mean element of happiness. And where one feels a peculiar regard for a class j called “aristocratic,” he respects whatever custom > they generally recognize, and feels, to be approved of it, is n synonym of personal consequence, and therefore’ self-respect, and “the mode”—what words of awful majesty arc these to a “ swell,” and therefore elegant, foreign, and therefore formi ■dnble Aristocratic, it appeals to the esthetic na* ture,! it is refined and chaste—“ made according | to the mode,” it is to 1*- mafic as the gods would I direct- But to have rank above the “vulgar”— this is the great thing. To he manifestly none of the herd, to seem to liave descended straight from some’ rich, “firat family.” on an air-line too lofty to ever have been a merchant or a member of Congress. Those who were at the “ Academy of Music” on r lie night we refer to, must remember the exceeding splendor and awful magnificence net of the representation, hut of the andiedcp. It was a seene/or every “swell" to treasure in his heart of hearts One would have thought from the gen eral eagerness to tic in a seat at a certain time, was a matter of life and death. O. the spotless, J unwriuklcd cloaks, the sujierb head-dresses, the j snowy white Waistcoats and cravats, the glossv and radiant beavers, all pressed and compact to gether, cheek by jowl with the Sunday coat of the respectable pleliean and the ill smelling garments of the plain, hut honest tradesman and trades ; man’s wife. We particularly admired a large, j red-faced, sumptuously attired, important looking i man. with snub nose, who vented audible petulant complaints in regard to’the culpableinadeqitateness of the means of entrance to the interior—for the left-hand door was shut—which neglect he vowed to his body companion was ridiculous, and a dis grace, in a tone that bespoke the stockholder— ; who is a modest individual that has a regular seat ( in the parquet, to the intease delight of the lessees j and managers. Of course iris none of my “bitis,” hut as Mrs. Toodles would say. it is certainly a great convenience to have in the house. The res olute, though slow moving crowd, swept me through the passage-way into ihe corridor, where 1 paused lo lake' breath and examine inv ribs.— To the enthusiast in the study of “ swells/’ a |«si tion well down in the parquet is perhaps Ihe most judicious, fir this alone will enable him to take in i at one magnificent sweep the adorable “swelling" | line of the dress circle—the haunts of tlie stockhol [ der and general opulent citizen. It Is well to go early, and lints confer on ones self ihe privilege of witnessing the composed ami majestic entrances ot these fellow lieings, who descend to their several places, and adjust themselves with edifiying delib erateness, and not the least conscious of observa tion. Blanche, whose side face has been called classic, takes one of the front seats and at once begins a lively chat with itmde., who in three quarter face responds with equal animation, which h iugs her tine teeth, (probably artificial) imoplav and imparts additional lustre to her eyes; while behind them two superb “ swells.” with hair parted —Charles Augustus style—in the middle, and who, therefore, contemplate a full front presentation, temporarily employ their tightly encased digits iii adjusting their lorgnettes, now'and then (lending over, wiih grace, to say something amusing, or di rect the attention of the young ladies to some dis tant quarter of the house, where they have descried some other object of equal, or perhaps (if possible) even greater interest than themselves. As soon ns we were seated and were at leisure to look around u.—no mean element in the Academy of Music—l fumed to the interior of the [wrquet to see a favorite “ swell” whom I so often observed in that region, even when not another of his kid ney was standing, there he stood, cool and promi nent, in view of the whole immense bouse, with his glass elevated toward the dress-circle, which he attentively surveyed with such patience and as siduity-and with sublime indifference to Ihe figure lie may be presenting to his peers, that I have nominated him bv acclamation' for the office of chief “swell,” and now I will turn my attention to the performance.

' I ■' ■ •—O 'The ’Union Mektwo.—Notwithdand -- hreatening appearance of the weather, <u; ■cening last, there was a huge turn out I'uion 'meeting, held in Mann ft Lanj ; ,cw building. A few airs perforated hr t ■sjna Brass Band, which had been eng* occasion, called the people togethet, ipon Hon. ;L. VV. Hall was chosen Brest he meeting, assisted by br, Wnt. B. I i..1, n London* Etlwin A. Beck, .Isaac vlex. A. Smyth, John Allison,, James Ml .on. Wm. M. Lloyd and Martin Rnnyen, '.'residents, jand George W. Kessler, Col. s-tink and Jns- H. Dvaart, as Secretaries. On taking tile Chair, Mr. llnll made KMiincnt remarks, ui'tef which lie introduced .list speaker of the evening, A. 11. tlhase. New York.' 1 Mr. Chase Opened by slating, had always, been a Democrat and was Democrat, hut not of the Seymour-Vui luau-Woodward kind. He m a I'uion rat. He supported for office men who w :,ivor of crushing out the rebellion and com . (icacc —not those who give aid and com ihe rebels by opposing the con-tituled autl >ml sycophant-like bowed at the feet of I i'o. and sued for a dishonorable peace. He hv appealing to the audience to cast then tor Andrew G. Cnrtin, that he might then Icctcd, and the Union men of Now Yo -uraged to; battle for the Union ticket i 'late. The next speaker introduced was Col.F. joinery, of Vicksburg, Mississipju, formerly ■l' the Vicksburg Whir/. His speech was he richest to which we have ever listened md humor sparkled in his eyes and rolled ■is tongue in a constant stream. Hi ■i ription of the characters who got up, at keeping alive, the present rebellion, and the -liniment of Vicksburg by Gen. Grant, wa splitting and kept the nudl«nre in'a continui ( laughter for nearly an hour. He coni ho difference between white and slave lal -nly a man who fully understands the ould have done. lie showed that it wo, -otter for tip. South wete slave labor abo md also that it would be better for white In trom the fact that so long ns slave labor exi ;he South it would be dograding for a whit :n labor there, but if slavery was done awe., white labor; would became as much res pci :hat locality os it is in the North, and the la mg much more productive, the labor of the mg man won hi be far more remunerative. H m to show that the hud and cry raised in nee to the o*errunning of the North, with i n case slavery Should be abolished, was o political bobby; that the slaves did not wa ome North, unless they could not get tbeii lom in any other way. If they could lie free ■'outh they would stay there, but if by rent, Miey must remain slaves, they would cet nke the first opportunity to gain their freedi dipping off to the North, and thus bring ■abor in Competition with that of the white dis remarks on this point could not tail to con >ll reasonable men that the arguments use ■ hose opposed to the abolishment of slave are totally gihundless. He closed by givin ■easons why he wished every man in .the am 10 vote tor Andrew G.- Curtin for Govt imong which was this, that around Gov. C (note than ihe Governor of any other loyal ■■entered the hopes of the Union men ot the S They knew that he was true to the ' country (rue to themand that he had done more fo ■appression or the rebellion than any of h leagues. . ' I He was fallowed by H. N. NcAlliswr, Es Belfefonte, who is a fluent and able speaker leals altogether in facts. He went a intodisqui ■n the slavery question, which he handled 'ut gloves, but the audience tired of if and i tor Judge Shannon, of Pittsburgh, whowas o ' lal >d.
