Barcley formly of this pi&oe but now in the army, has been heard from. He was taken prisoner in the late raid of AViisons eavairy south and west of Petersburg. lie is held a prisoner in Columbia S. C.. from which place he has written to his friends in this place, who have been very an:tious concerning his fate.— It wag-feared be had fa.'len in battle. lie is con fined in vkeiwrme prison with Major John H. Filler. Meetisg ofthe"Dem Milse a speech, but had a few words to say about certain men in this commu.vty, who under a secret agency from the government were constantly communicating information to t, - e authorities tit Washington. He utterly dc;spi-> these sneaks, who get behind posts, and trees and peep through key-holes to hear some t'dis) ioyal ex j ression drop from democratic lips. But the gen- P.-man solaced himself by the pleasant reflection that the days of this corrupt and tyranical administration wece well nigh ended, and that Peace, so long prayed for by Vallaudigham and bit tkprstle?. would IK; ush ered is. and reveal the nefarious projects of these soies at home. After liim, followed the modest Pre.-iuent, who in his retiring aucl deferential manner, as a man the said! who had never engaged in politics, ex pressed his settled ronriction on the great issues now before the country. He could see nothing cheering (loud applause) in the present attitude of affairs. He would ask, "What hare we gained by the war." (rociferoius scouting) Absolutely nothing. ( deafening roar, of nothing. ) Therefore let us have peace. He was in favor of an 'flrwiM-t/w," for there could be no peace as long as we kept'fighting ? lie eat. Mr. Shannon was the next speaker. In his opin ion the question had just come to this, war or peace. Democrats or Abolitionist. Every man who is in favor of the war is an Abolitionist. If you are in favor of a further prosecution of the war. then you are in favor of Abolitionism, and all the heresies and blunders of this Administration, and all the dis tress that exists throughout the land, and you are in favor of these infernal drafts that come every three months of your lives : Slavery had nothing to do with the war, he admitted, however, afterwards that slavery was the cause of the war —so much for con sistency. Mr. Palmer made a short and sparkliug speech.— The "'Democratic club" thea weat to bed or some other place. s£-vr e record with regret, the death of Jerome Leonard and Wm. M. Amick, soldiers, of the Re public. and members of Company D. 53th Regiment Penna. Volunteers. Jerome Leonard was a sergeant in the company to which he belonged and had earned an enviable rep utation, during nearly three years service, as a brave and gallant soldier, and one of the best drill officers of the Regimcan His comrades always spoke of him in terms of highest commendation, and his supe rior officers esteemed him a "thorough soldier' 1 de voted to the eervise arid faithful to his counry. He received a wound in the right thigh at the battle of Cold Harbor, of which he died in the General Hos pital at Fortress Uonroe on the morning of the 11th of August insL In a letter, dictated by him the day before his death, he says : I have done all I could for my country. It called me and I went and I have suffer ed. I don't ragret coming to the army, my coun try is worth Battering for—is worth every thing."' Wm. M. Amick was a private in the same compa ny and was especially noted for the faithful perform ance of every duty and unshrinking courage amid every danger. He too was wounded in some one of the battles near Richmond, and died, as we learn under a second imputation of his leg which became neeesaary on account of gangrene. We are sorry that we could not receive fuller particulars of his death*. Peace to the ashes of these brave men whose pa triotic services, and private virtues will long be re membered in this community. DEATH or AN AGED CITIZEN.— George James of Colrain township died the 2nd iust., aged between 82 and 83 years old. He had been a member of the Legislature for two sessions and County Com missioner. He leaves a numerous posterity—nine children, forty-eight grand children, and twenty great grand children. Mr. James was highly es teemed by a large circle of friends and acquain tance!. HORSE THIEVES ABOUND. —Two horse* were uto leu in Harmon's bottom last Map day night, one from G. W. Williams, the other from Isaac Horn. Mr. Williams offers a reward of one hundred dollars for the recovery of the horse and detection of the thief. *- RET. NATHANIEL R. GATES of Elbinsville, con nected with the Christian Commission of the Army of the Potomac, has latwi v been making a shorf vis it to his friends. He is spoken of by men familiar with his labors as one of the most efficient delegates of the Christian Commission in the army. Mr. Gates is of the family of Gen. Gates of the revo lutionary fßrue. He was a drummer in the war ot If I*2, rose to the rank of captain, and then became a preacher of the denomination termed I nited Brethren in Christ. He is now in the sixty-ninth year of his age. is a resident of Pennsylvania, bears a strong resemblance to the late Lyman Beecher, and has seven sons in the army. _ hew, if any of the vounger delcgnies can eoipppte with him in labors. "Mr. Gates leaves next Monday, and returns to Alex andria, the scene of his work. Secession Demonstrations at Bedford Springs. A writer in the New York Herald, writing from ! Bedford Springs, makes an exhibition of matters there, which as far as our information extends, we are sorry* to say is true. The proprietor of the Springs, is a Union man, and a firm supporter of the Government in suppressing the rebellion and cati hardly'be held responsible for the sentiments. nd beba y io* <)f his guests. REBEL STXI-ATHUEBB AT BEL > FORD SGRLSPS. Communication by the Baltimore and Ohio Rail road, eastward, being interrupted by the enemy, iq order to reach the liue of flie Pennsylvania central Rqilroad, 1 was obliged to take stage from Cumber land to Bedford, a distance of thirty utiles. One mile and a half south of Bedford, and ou our route, lay the Bedford Springs. Having plenty of time we tanied over on hour iu looking about the grounds and tasting of the various waters. Now, I do not propose to. speak of the desirability of the Springs as a summer resort, the medicinal health-imparting ef fects of its waters, but briefly, pointedly and plainly of the character of the people that have centered here the present season —aud 1 may add that the ease has been the same every year of the war. The guests of Bedford Springs are made up of two classes, socially aud politically. Ihe lirst class are those of Union feelings and sentiments, with all their attendant finer qualities of heart and head. — The other class consists of a shabby, irresponsible and low order ol Phiiadelpihia ami Baltimore Seces sionists. either J>y blood or sympathy. The latter come here less to imbibe their favorite sulphur water, tkaa to hold a reunion of friends to treason. They too, being iu a decided majority, amuse themselves by brow beating and mis-using the tolerent minority of loval gentlemen and ladies who have come here for the benefit-of their health. And. intact, to such a degree does this constant taunting of the Unionists extend, that the larger portion of their number have been forced away iu order to escape the bitterness and superior numbers ot their enemies. As au ex ample of the feeling. . A TOCEX Alt EXT. Yesterday afternoon a means of harmless enjoy* -tent was made a contest of the two politicel parties inpp which the guests of the Springs have divided themselves. At the opening hve competitors i t tered the list. After several efforts three of the party wit fit-drew. leaving the contest between Mr. Lyon, a young lawyer of New York city, and form erly a resident of Bedford, and one Dr. Seitzinger. Mr. Lyon represented the Union, and dressed in Brother J ohuathqn costume, and the Dr. the Se cession element. In Rie riding, Mr. Lyon won the victory. The crowning, a.- is usual on sueii occasions, wits to take place at the evening hall. The defeat, however, of the Secessionists, in the true spirit and unprincipled character of Seeessionism, caused the opposition to declare Mr. Lyon's riding was unfair, and made every kind of unjust accusation, deciding at first tpjt to attend the crowning. Night came, but tfip opposition did not fail to make their ap pearanoe. and chivalry like, exposed their tuul na tures by passing remarks upon the ceremonies. — Miss Dofiie Watford of HarrMuv.;, daughter of the President of tho Northern Central Railway, w-:- crowned tfio fairest of the i'nio , fair, and I mey mid parenthetiouHy. from what 1 saw, very rightly o t,.0 The bitter feeling of the Seccsh did not even end here: hut the triumph of t}iat rues' et'w>abi-; mi nority. for a short period humbled their pride. OKXECA; HI ELL. The conduct of General Bqpll has aba been vfiatne ful i i tho most extreme degree. It for no feelings of pe. h vital respect, out of regard for tin- favors shown h ; ni by the Government, it would be moral hecomitfc* to'keep aloof from the contaminating tna joritv of t -uc:;t< at Bedi'ord Springs, instead, how ever. of do. tig this, h.'recicve th i j, latteries, and ap plans* and the hero of the season among a crowd who would It 'id anythiug that would sympathize and add tiutiitiers ■> their party. -'ATtOVAt. FAS'# HAY. On this occasion the antagonism of the persons alluded to presented itself in a still ittore striking manuer. It was proposed by the Union Lis to set aside the ball for tea* evening, and manifest some regard for the day in that way. The Secessionists hearing this, at once wore unanimously in favor of the ball and when the hour came the music struck up and the dance went on with more vigor and en thusiasm than any night of the season. It is unnec essary to add that the Unionists were not present. THE SVKIXOS BASIL This necessary Itody of individuals are as much tinctured with the element as the most hot-headed, and at certain hours sit under the trees oi the lawn and murder Seeesh airs to an alarming extent, THE REV. lIAS'IEI, WASHBORX. Hoaring of the impiety of the guests of the Springs, the Rev. Daniel Washburn of Philadelphia, was delegated to visit here, to hold and to introduce the prayer for the President. At first there was considerable controversy upon the subject: but the "secessionists, tfiiqking this too glaring a cause of hostility, tolerated the obnoxious prayer, though with evident disapprobation. FINALE. We might mention a hundred other cases of the abomimv jo behavior of the guests at Bedford Springs, but the above qre sufficient to introduce the subject to the mind of the authorities and the people.— The proprietor of the Springs, whether sympathiz ing with the Unionists or Secessionists, we are not prepared to state positively, hut he certainly extends greater favor to the latter. It would be well for the government at least to demand respect of these peo ple if they have not sufficient firmness to punish them. It is deplorable to permit an unprincipled andjrude set oi individuals to thus mar the happi ness of Union people, and that ; too, in their own State. Let something be done. -* Soldiers Letter Tne following is an extract from a letter written by John H Allison, of Co. I. 21st Regt. Pa. Cavalry, to-his Sister. NEAR PETERSBURG VIRGINIA, August 4th, 1864 DEAR SISTER : ************* The Lieutenant got back safe, He has written a letter to the Ixquikkr (The letter is given on the first page) giving an account of the "blowing up''of a Rebel fort. It was opposite to us, about sixty jierch es. It was a grand sceue. I would not have missed seeing it fur any thing. It rose up like a volcano, then spread out and fell like the drooping branches of a weeping willow. Hen, cannons, knapsacks, guns, haversacks, logs, tents and ground were seen flving in the air about three-hundred feet high. Then about one hundred and fifty cannons opened upon the enemy's lines, which made the earth shake, the air soon became so thick with smoke that you could not see one hundred yards: but it soon rose and we Could see the enemy's lines. The Rebs did not re ply at first but after their fright was over they came back and opened on us. which again made the earth shake beneath our feet, the roar of cannon, musketry and the yelling of charging columns were deafening. We captured one line from "John Henrys," but they charged on us and drove us back to our former place. I am now writing in my "cave" under the ground about six fleet, it is called a bombproof: it is dug into too ground, aud toga laid ever, and tJhen dir ton to prevent the shells from hitting us, I shot about one bandied shots, I don't know whether they done any good or not, bat hope they did. The rebs and us are about three nuudred yards apart. If God spare my lite to get home I'll give,you a discriptiou of things in general. Your Loving Brother, JOHN. CAMP CORRESPONDENCE. I.
