The Glorious news from Maine and \ ermout. give sure indications of the tale October and November will tell, and rebels and Copperheads alike quake with fear. And now Sheridan and his gallant ar my have taken up the refrain. Let us at once give Grant the few more men he asks, and soon the army of the Potomac will re-echo the glad strain. If we haVe not filled our quotas and it is our misfortune to be drafted, let US go Rtid def ooru r duty like men worthy our glorious heritage of Liberty. It may be a hardship for the time, but it is our Country's cull to duty and it will soon bring a rich fruition.

THE ANTI-WAR JtcCLELLAN MEETING. The meeting of the lire. Clellanites, last Satur. day, fell far short of our expectations, considering the stremiouse fForts that were made to baring out a large assemblage of the people. The day was very fine, and if there had been as much enthusiasm in favor of the Chicago nomination as our our oppo nents would have the \\ orld believe, ihere ought to have been a much larger demonstratou. —It is manifest that notwithstanding the attractions promised, in the shape of brilliant lire works, torchlight processions Ac, there must have been a vast deal of coaxing to collect the crowd that, a] - pcared on the occasion.—V\ e make an exceeding ly liberal estimate of the Dumber in attendance, when we say that it did not reach over five hun dred, or at the very outside, six hundred people, including men women and children; aud these col lected from the townships of Cumberland A'al ley. Bedford, St. Clair, Napier, Juniata. Snake- Spring, C'olerain, East and West l'rovidence&c. One-third of the crowd at least was made up of I - nion men and women, who were curious to hear what could be said in defence of the (,'hieag platform aud left the meeeting more persuaded than ever, that the war can be stopped, and a permanent and honorable peace obtained, only by our armies un der the lead of those gallant peace commissioners. Generals Grant and Sherman. The speakers stand and the columns of the Court Iloase, wore gracefully decorated with evergreens and mottoes iu large letters of" liberty "The Constitution and the Union,' producing a fine effect; and it is agreat pity that the purposes of the meeting and the sentiments avowed, had not been in harmony with the external arrangements. After the organization of the meeting, the Con ittituton of the United States was read by Mr. Har tley.—The introduction of this greatest production of humaß wisdom at the outset of the proceedings led us to expect some special notice aud severe du nuc-iatioH of those arch traitors, Jefferson Davis, Jhon C. Breckinridge, Howell Cobb, Robert Toombs, Johun Floyd, Judah Benjamin ami others, who have so defiantly trampled this Con stitutou under foot, and inaugurated the bloodiest civil war the World ever saw, to subvert and de deitrov the government that rests on this sacred Constitution as its foundation —But we waited in vain. These rebels were treated with the greatest tenderness. None could be found to share the virtuous indignation of these copperheads in coun cil, but Abraham Lincoln and his cabinet, who have been exerting all their energies to maintain and defend this same Constitution. The first speaker introduced to the audience, was I. Mc. I Novell Sharp esq. of Chambersburg. heralded as a gentleman of high character and dis tinguished talents, And yet the speech delivered by him is not entitied to be considered a great speech. It was any thing else than a great speech It was feeble in statement, defective iu argument and illustration and marked by the loosest partizan characteristics. It served only to show how poor ly a bad cause can be defended by men of vaunted abilities. His illustrations drawn from the story of the three Hebrew children, regarded by him doubtless, as not only pertinent to the point he was discussing, but as a rhetorical flourish of ex ceeding beauty, was entirely unworthy of him. — Why should he say that Abraham Lineoln had erected the "nigger" idol and commander Gen. McClelloh to fall down and Worship it ? There is nothing in the history of the times to justify it, and Gen. MeCleßafi himself would not dare to assert it. It is well known that, when Gen. Fremont and Gen. Hunter issued their emancipation proclamations in Missouri and South Carolina, they were revoked by Mr. Lincoln; and it was not until in the progress of the War that it was demonstrated to be a stern military neces sity, ami so regarded hv the purest ami best men iscthe land, of all parties, the President issued his fa nous emancipation proclamation of January 1, 1863 —this great measure was compelled by the logic of events, and adopted solely uuder the. war power of the Constitution, as one of the surest methods of putting an end to the rebellion. And then it must be understood that the rebels bad thre< mefftto uotiee of this proclamation witkiii wluch the opportunity was offered to them to save their slaves by simply laying down their aruis and yielding obedien tto the Constitution. And yet fdr party ends, Mr. Sharp can bo induced to pre vent these great facte and charge upon Mr. Lin coin tMt he prfwecutds the war solely for the lib eration of the sieves of the Sodth. — The neat speaker was Gen. G. W. Bowman formaly editor of the Bedford Gazette. We did not hear the whole of his speech, but wo have learned that sotr e of his remarks, were, by no means, satisfactory to the other anti-war men.— His endorsement of the administration of Mr. Lincoln, up to the date of the emancipation proc lamation, robs them cf some of their greatest com pliments—the arbitrary arrests, and the suspen sion of the writ of Habeas Corpus. The General was public printer under the administration ot Mr, Buchanan and is perfectly familiar with ali the facts connected with the outbreak of the re bellion, and knows who are to blame for till our troubles. Heuee his approvals at the outbreak of the war to put down the rebellion even up to the time of the proclamation, was a bitter pill for a large portion of his audiance. — We did hear, however a part of his remark - against the preachers, and we must say they did him no credit—-We know it is fashionable a mongst people of small minds, to denounce patri otic clergymen for speaking of the rebellion in their sermons and prayers, hut the right minded and reflecting part of the people do not dis grace themselves by such abuse. Love of country is a solemn, religious duty end no man is a good Christain who is not a good patriot —It is there fore, the duty of the Christain Minister to raise his voice in the pulpit, as well as elsewhere, in behalf of his country, and to press upon his hear ers their obligations to stand by their country whenever its institutions are threatened, either by a foreign and domestic enemy—ln doing -so they but follow the example of patriotic ministers of the gospel during the war of the Revolution.— Mr. Sharp and Gen. Bowman did npt undertake to defend the monstrous, herseie- of the Chicago platform—that was left for the smaller speakers who closed up the orations of the day—Y et we can not but think that these last speakers are entitled to greater respect —'they were willing to stand by their doctrines, odious as they are, and to stand hv MeClellun Hilly because he is the representative of their great watchword. —.4 cessation of hostili ties. with a view to an ultimate convention of the States —that they dont like McClellan is evident from the fact that they signed a paper directing the delegate. Mr. Meyers, to vote against him in the Convention —yet now that he is nominated and has accepted the nomination, they feel assured— as all must feel ussured—he will, if elected, carry out, this great object of the Chicago Convention— a cessation of the war, even though it may be produced by a recognition of the Southern Con federacy. M'CLLEEAN'S LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE General lias written a letter accept ing the Chicago nomination. Since the adjourn ment of the Convention the action of the nominee has been looked for by ull parties with great inter est. Loyal Union Democrats earnestly hoped he would decline the nomination, because of the plat form ; sympathisers with treason, that lie would accept both the platform and the nomination.— He has disappointed both, by accepting the nom ination and repudiating the platform. And yet his rejection of the platform is not aii honest and fair and manly repudiation, that men feel they can rely upon, hut an artful political shuffle, manifestly calculated to deceive one wing or the other of Ids party. It is evidently the production of some such old political gamester a lloratio Seymour. It is u trick ot a politico, thimble—rigger. He does not say that he rejects the platform. On the contrary he would have you believe that he accepts it. "Believing that the views here ex pressed are those of the Conventiou ■and the peo ple you represent, I accept the nomination. lie pretends to approve the resolutions of the Con vention. Those resolutions declare that ''//? ex periment qf war ha* failed, and " demand that immediate effort he made for a cessation of hostile - ties.'' Mark it; they do not say the policy of Emancipation has failed, and that the war must be carried on without any such policy ; but the War is a failure and must cease ' The letter of acceptance says; '"the existence of more than one government over the region that once waved our flag, is incomputable with tin peace, tho power and the happiness of our peo ple." "I could not look in the face my gallant camradea of the army and many who have survi ved so many bloody battles, and tell them that their labors, and the sacrifice of so many of out skin and wounded brethren, had been in vain, that we had abandoned that Union for which Wt had so often periled onr lives." "The re-estab lishnient of the Union, in all its integrity, is and must continue to be, the indispensable condition in any settlement." Aud yet lie says, he believes these views to be the views of the convention. Is this true ? Does not General McClellrn knout that these views are not the views of the Convention ? He is in fa vor of continuing the War for the Union; the Convention declares the war a failure and demands a cessation of hostilities. General McClellan should in justice to his rec ord and his views have spurned a nomination oE any platform that met the approval of Tallflndig ham and Long, and Harris and the Woods. Tin patriotic sentiments of his letter mingle with the resolutions of the Convention as oil does with water; stir them as you please there is no affinf ty. If be believes the views he expresses are those of the Convention, he is most singular in his belief ; no other man in the country is equally credulous. He is laboring under as great a mis take as last Fall, when, in the eve of the guber national election in this State, he wrote for pub lication a letter stating that Woodward's view, were the same as his. If he is so strangely cred ulous ho would be most utterly unfit for Presi dout. He might surround himself with Vallan digham. and Yoorhees ; and Wnw B. Heed urn Fernando Wood for Cabinet officers and ü belicre' their views were all right. He might even "/*• lit rc" that Jeff Davis was a Patriot worthy of hb confidence and regard. The crisis demands a chief magistrate of greater truthfulness at o better judgement. "M'CEELLAN, I*ENDLETON AN'l> PEACE." This is the euphonic alliteration with whicl the copperheads of this County adorn their band bills for their meetings. Peace is a most desirable thing, devoutly to b< prayed for by all good men. But what sort of; peace is it you want ? Is it a peace that wili see the Union restored ii its entirety and traitors laying down their arms and yielding obedience to the constitution and th< laws ? Or is it a peace which will result in the recog ration of the right of seoetsiom and leave us > nation divided find deg uded—the con Hiltttion a rope of sand; the Union to be broken into as ma ny fragments as there are States ? Be good enough to define your position. Do you stami on the Chicago platform, or on McClel lans letter of acceptance ? Do you go with the "New York Daily Nycs" and the "Metropolitan Record" which denounce MeClellan as having renounced the platform of Chicago and as stand ing before the people self nominated on a plat form ot his own erection, and call for a reassem bling of the Convention to throw him overboard or do you standby McCkiliau's letter of accept ance ? Are you for a Pendleton peace or a 31c- Clellan jieacc ? Are you Chicago Democrats or War Democrats ? Are you with Chicago in favor of withdrawing our armies and holding a Conven tion of the Statell" Murk you, not of the people but of the State a. Jeff Davis and the men controlling the armies of the rebels say they will have no jieace except on the bads of independence, and that you must yield to them Missouri and Maryland, Weat. Vir ginia and Kentucky and half the territories of the whole country up to Mason's and Dixson's lint. You can have no peace on the basis of the Union and the Constitution until their armies are subdued ami "we the people" of the North tnd of the South who made the old Constitution ind Union cah speak heart to heart. Until then, the war miist go on and divisions and disseutions in the North but protract the coming of the joyful day. What we want and wliat XVe must have is peice that will he permanent and enduring. Peace lot alone for ourselves, but for our children and cur children's children to the latest generation. Not a temporary j>eace to leave us dissevered and dis cordant States, to be driven again and again into war among ourselves as the years roll on, by con stantly recurring causes of collision Aud the only road to Peace is through a rigor ous prosecution of the war. until J. Davis and his co-conspiratorswho began this war ask fur terns for a fair and honorable peace on the basis of the Unicn and the Constitution. Shall we who are mainaaining a just war in de fence of our national life go to Richmond whining like whipped hounds begging Peace. Shall we lose foi naught the many brave aud gcbd men who have laid down their lives in this struggle because they believed it was just and right and approved of Heaven. The blood of a hundred thousand patriots cries out from the ground a gaiust the peace of these "Peace sneaks." Jeff Davis would treat you with the scort yot deserve, if you go to Richmond begging peact on any other terms than those he dictates.— If you are in favor of that peace, say so. If noi let us hear no more of this one by which yot wish to delude the people. A Speech by Secretary Seward. WASHINGTON, Tuesday, Sept. 13, Secretary SEWARD made the following address to the Lincoln and Johnson Association, who cal led upon liiui tills evening: FELLOW-CITIZENS : I understand that you an the Lincoln and Johnson Association of the Dis trict of Columbia. [We are.] Well, I inquire be cause it is well, when people meet, that each part) know exactly who the other are. I'll tell you, therefore, who I am. I am a citixen who is it favor of the same ticket you support, LINCOLN an JOHNSON. lam for them because, they are th< candidates of the Union we are fighting for. W have found it necessary to fight for that cause, art' when I am obliged to fight for a cause, T am th< la-1 man that goes to the polls and votes ngains it. i'ulluw Citixens : In a speech I mode at A ULNA I said there should la; no draft because the a rnf is being reinforced by five thousand to ten thof *and members per day. The people of Aubui understood nte, and cleared their district of 11 draft by volunteering. Patriotic men in Philad phia write me that there they understood mop say that here m// he no draft, and therefore tip stop, volunteering, I avail myself therefore of tfc occasion to correct their mistake by saying thatfc grace can only show itself by works, so the dit will surely come if we do not volunteer, amp prevent it. I hope that point is settled now. * FELLOW-CITIZENS : The democracy at Chicago,F ter waiting six weeks to see whether the war, r the Union is to succeed or fall, and finally eonj ded that, it would fall; therefore they went inlr a •nomination and platform to make the fall sure thing by a cessation of hostilities and ai* bandonmentof the contest. At Baltimore, onfe contrary, we determined that there should h. siich thing as failure, and therefore we went i|o save the Union by battle to the last. SHERRS' and FARRAOIW have knocked the bottom ou|" the Chicago nominations; and the electior|h Vermont and Maine prove that the Babble nominations are staunch fttid sound. The i|e is thus squarely made up : MrCI.KLLAN and 11- solutioti. LINCOLN and Union. Have you LY doubt of the result of such an issue? (No,no.jr do 1 have any doubt. Many thanks, my i'rijs for this visit. Good-bye. The Presidency. GEN. MCCEELAN'S LETTER OF ACCKFTANCI ORANGE, N. J., Sept. 8, lsf| Gentlemen : I have the honor to aektiowljfc the receipt of your letter informing me om nomination by the Democratic National Confi tiou, recently assembled at Chicago, as their i didate at the next election for President oft United Btates. It is unnecessary for mc to say to you that® nomination comes to me unsought. 1 am happy to know that when the nomirnfn was made the record of my public life was kofin view. I The effect of long and varied service iihe arhiy during war and peace has been to striwli ei> and make indeliable in my mind and heamhe love and reverence for the Union, Constitn, laws, and flag of our country, impressed apftu in early ydutn. These feelings have thus far guided tile eels of my life, and must continue to do so to its | The existence of more thun one governi& over the region which once owned our flag is g computable with the peucej the power, and! happiness of the people. The preservation of onr Union was the § avowed object for which the war was comuiei It should have been conducted for that objec ly, and in accordance with those principles \v I took occasion to declare when in active sefv Thus conducted, the work irf reconcili world have been easy, and we might have re I the benefits of our many victories on laud | sea. | The Union wis originally formed by the |ese of asp fit of concdiation and compromise. | restore and preserve it, the same spirit most I vail in our councils, and in the hearts of the pie. The re-establishment, of the Union in all it tegrifcy is. and most .continue to he, the inde sable condition in any settlement. Ko soon is clear, or even probable, that our present i j saries are ready for peace, upon tlie basis o j Union, wc should exhaust all resources of s manship practiced by civilized nations, and f |by the traditions of the American peopk ! sistent with the honor and interests of the try, to secure snch peace, re-establish the I and guarantee for the future the eon.-aitu , rights of every State. The Union LB the ou I dition of peace—we n-k no more. Let me add what I doubt not this. although unexpressed, the sentiment of the Convention, is it is of the people they represent, that when any ode State is wtllitig to return to the Union, it should be received at once, with a full guarantee <if all its constitutional rights. If a frank, earnest, and persistent effort to ob-' tain those objects should fail, the responsibility for ulterior consequences will fall upon those who remain in anus against the Union. But the Union must be preserved at all hazards. 1 could not look in the face my gallant com rades of the army and navy, who have survived so many bloody battles, and tell them that their labors and the sacrifice of so many of our slain and wounded brethren had been in vain ; that we had abandoned that Uniou for which we have so often ixrriled our lives. A vast majority of our people, whether in the army and navy or at home, Would, as I would, hail with unbounded joy the permanent restoration of |Kaoe, on the basis of the Union under Constitu tion, without the effusion of another drop of blood. But no peace can be permanent without Union. As to the other subjects presented in the reso lutions of the Convention, I need only say that 1 should seek, in the Constitution of' the" United States and the laws framed in accordance there with, the rule of my duty, and the limitations of executive power, endeavor to restore economy in public expenditure, re-establish the supremacy of law. and, by the assertion of a more vigorous na tionality, resume our commauding position among the nations of the earth. The condition of our finances, the depreciation of the paper money, nd the burdens thereby im posed on labor and capital, show the nocesity of a return to a sound financial system; while Ike rights of citizens and the right of States, aud the binding authority of law over President, army and people, are subjcts of not less vital impor tance in war than in peace. Believing that the views here expressed are those of the Convention and the people you rep resent, I accept the nomination. I realize the Weight of the responsibility to be borne should the jtoople ratify your choice. Conscious of my own weakness, I can only seek fervently the guidanoe of the Ruler of the uni verse, and, relying onTilis all-powerful aid, do my l*st to restore Union and peace to a suffering peo ple, and to establish and guard their liberties and rights. I am. gentlemen, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, GEORGE B. MCCLELLAN. ITOA. lloratin Seymour, and other*, Committee. THE WAR FOR THE UNION. GOOD NEWS FROM SfIERIDAS. HE ATTACKS EARLY.

Advices front New Orleans bring intelligence of a remarkable state of affairs at Brownsville, on the itio Grande. Cortenas, the Mexican leader, being unable to cope with the French forces, cross ed his command, two thousand strong with sixteen pieces of caution, on to the American side of the rivet, aud attacked the Rebels who held possession of Brownsville. The 91st Illinois, which was at Brazos, hearing the firing moved up the river aud took part in the fight, driving the Rebels back. Cortenas then hoisted the American flag and of fered his Services and that of his command to our 'Government. One account states that before ! Cortenas crossed to this side of the river the Rebel i force shelled his rear whilest the French were at tacking him iu front. The whole story needs con firmation. The Rebel movements in the Southwest still indicate a purpose to invade Missouri. Dispatches from Atlanta to the lltli instant states that our army is securely encamped in front of that city. The Georgia militia arc rapidly de serting from Hood, alul his army is now reduced to about thirty thousand men. Advices from the Army of tlicf Potomac give further particulars of the Rebel raid made in our rear, and which was successful ill Carrying off two thousand cattle, but also several hundred prison ers. An unavailing pursuit was made. The pos session of so large a herd of cattle will be a godsend to the Rebels. Who is accountable for placing them in position where they would be reached by the eacuiy is not stated. Evidently somebody is to bhime. NEW STORE."NEW GOODS! MRS, SAMUEL 11.
