NEWS FPO3I. OUR BOYS Or TUE FIFTH
PA. REGT.-WO had the pleasure of
taking our young friend, Mr. Henry
Geissinger, of Capt. Wintrode's com
pany, by the hand this morning. He
brought home the body of Reuben T.
rouse, a member of the same company
who died of typhoid fever. Mr. Geis
singer says that Fosse was in the bat
tle at Fair Oaks, and fought like a
.hero, but before'the battle was ended
he took sick and in four days was a
.corpse. Mr. Geissingcr was in the sev
en-days' battle, but came out unscath
ed. Ile saw some of the members 'of
Company Gr, sth Pa. Regiment, since
the fight, and communicates to us sad
.and mournful intelligence of some of
the brave boys from this borough.—
We hesitate to write it, but the truth
!must be known, and we hope the sad
mews will be taken as lightly as possi
ble. S. H. Keith is slightly wounded
:in the arm; Jacob Hawn is also slight
dy wounded; a man by the name of
!Green, from Neconnellstown, serious-
Ay wounded; Lieut. Charles Hildebrand
is among the missing. It is not known
lillether he was killed or taken priso-
CM
Creissinger says that poi. Sim
mons; of the sth Pa. Regiment acting
Brigadier General, _was shot from his
horse, but it is not known what be
came of him. Maj. Dare's horse was
shot from under him. Mr. G. did not
know his fate.
TUE 4Tu.—But very little demon
-•}ration was made in this place on the
‘. The only thing like a demon
z'on was the Methodist Sabbath
.)1 Celebration. A large number
our citizens went to various points
on Broad Top. John Scott delivered
an address at Coalmont. We are in
formed that he handled the secession
ists and their Northern sympathizers
-without mercy. Rev. S. 11. Reid spoke
:it Broad Top City. His address was
a masterly affair as is everything that
cones from that source. There was
;also a celebration at Powoiton, which
-.was none of your " one-horse" affairs.
TUE repairs are so far advanced that
the canal from Hollidaysburg to Wil
.liamsburg Dam will be opened for the
passage of boats about the 25th of this
month (July). From Williamsburg
Dam to Huntingdon Dam the water
will be drawn off on the first of Au
gust, and that part of the canal will
probably remain closed during the re-
Juainder of the season.

RESOLUTIONS
The committee on resolutions hay
ing concluded their labors, reported
through their Chairman, Hon. Arnold
Pluncbr, of Yenango . , the following se
ries of resolutions, which were read by
one of the secretaries, Col. Jacob Zeig
ler.
IVnEREAs, The American Constitu
tion was ordained and establi4eil by
our fathers, in order to form a more
perfect Union, establish justice, insure
domestic tranquility, provide for the
common defence, promote the general
welfare and secure the blessings of lib
erty to posterity, therefore
1. Resolves, That the only object of
the Democratic party is the restora
tion of Alie Union as it was, and the
preservation of the Constitution as
,is.
2, Resolved, That to the end that.the
Union be restored and the Constitution
and laws be . enforced throughont its
whole extent, we pledge our hearty
and unquallified support to the Feder
al government in the energetic prose
cution of the existing war.
Rfwolved. That tho true and only ob-
EM
jeet-a-the war is, to restore the Union
and enforce the laws; such a purpose
alone is worthy the awful sacrifice
which it costs us of life and treasure;
with such a purpose alone can we hope
for success, and those who from sec
tional feeling, party or private motives
would give any other direction to the
efforts of our armies are unjust and un
worthy to be entrusted with polar,
and would cause all our exertions, ex
traordinary and unparalleled as they
are, to prove futile in the end.
Resolved, That we jus.tly view with
alarm the reckless extravagance which
pervades some of the departments of
the Federal Government, and that a
return to rigid economy and account
ability is indispensable to arrest the
systematic plunder of the public treas
ury by favored partizans; and that, in
view of the recent startling develop
ments of frauds and corruptions at the
Federal metropolis and throughout
the country, we hold an entire change
of administration to be imperatively
demanded.
Resolved, That the party fanaticism
or crime, whichever it may be called,
that seeks to turn the slaves of the
Southern States loose to overrun the
north and enter into competiting with
the white laboring masses, thus degra
ding and insulting their manhood by
placing them on an equality with ne
groes in their occupation, is insulting
to our race, and merits our most em
phatic and unqualified condemnation.
Resolved, That we denounce north
ern abolitionism and southern secession
as the co-operation sources of our pres
eat calamities, alike treasonable to the
Constitution and inimical to the Union.
The only way to a restored Union and
a respected Constitution, with return
ing peace and prosperity is through
the overthrowing of both.
Resolved, That the Democracy of
Pennsylvania is equally opposed to all
sectional legislation and geographical
parties, which base their hope for con
tinued partizan success on the agra
grianism of emancipation and hyper
critical philanthropy— abolition : be
cause neither is known to the Constitu
tion, and both are intended to aid in
subverting the Constitution and to pre
vent the restoration of unity, peace
and concord among the States and the
people.
Resolved, That the Constitution and
laws are sufficient for any emergency,
and that the suppression of the free
dom 'of speech and of the press, and
the unlawful arrest of citizens and the
suspension of the writ of habeas corpus,
in violation of the Constitution, in
States where the civil authorities are
unimpeded, is most dangerous to civil
liberty, and should be resisted at the
ballot-box by every freeman in the
land.
Resolved, That this is a government
of white men, and was established ex
clusively for the white race, and that
the negro race are not entitled to, and
ought not to be, admitted to political
of social•equality with the white race,
but that it is our duty to treat them
with kindness and consideration as an
inferior and dependent race; that the
right of the several States to deter
mine the position and duties of the race
is a sovereign right; and the pledgh6
of the Con.stitution, require its as loyal
citizens not to interfere therewith.
Resolved, That Congress has in pow
er to deprive any person of his prop
erty for any criminal offence unless
that person has been first duly convic
ted of the offence by the verdict of
a jury, and that all acts of Congress
like those lately passed by the House
of Representatives, which assume to
forfeit or confiscate the estates of men
for offences for which they have not
been convicted by due trial by jury
aro unconstitutional and lead to op
pression and tyranny. It is no justi
fication for such acts that the crimes
committed in the prosecution of the
rebellion are of unexampled atrocity,
and there is no such justification as
State necessity known to our govern
ment or laws.
Resolved, That the Constitution, the
Union and the Laws must bepreserved
and maintained in all their proper and
rightful supremacy, and that therebel
lion now in arms against them must be
suppressed and put down; and that it
is our duty to aid in all measures nec
essary and proper to that end.
Resolved, That the soldiers compo
sing our armies merit the warmest
thanks of the nation. Their country
called, and nobly did they respond;
living they shall know a nation's grat
itude, wounded a nation's care, and dy
ing they shall live in our memories and
monuments shall be raised to teach
posterity to honor the patriots and he
roes who offered their lives at their
country's altar. Their widows. and
orphans shall be adopted by the na
tion, to be watched over and cared for
as objects truly worthy a nation's guar
dianship.
The resolutions were unanimously
adopted.
The convention then immediately
proceeded to nominate candidates for
Auditor General and Surveyor General,
to be voted for at the next fall elec
tion.
The first and sixth ballots for a nom
inee of the party for the former office
resulted as follows:

lection of James P. Barr,of Alleghany

BALTIMORE, July 3.—The army cor
respondence of the Associated Press
has just arrived here, direct from Gen.
Ale headqu.urters. The follow
ing is a brief statement of the present
condition of affairs :
After seven days incessant fighting,
during which Gen. McClellan's army
was compelled to fall back before vast
ly superior numbers, he reached a point
on the James river adjoining Turkey
Island. Here he is in a safe position,
with the support of the gunboats.
His army is posted on high ground,
out of the swamps, with abundance of'
good Water, and where he can, and
now is, being reinforced.
The battle, or rather series of bat
tles, has been one of the most destruc
tive of human life that the world has
seen, and has resulted in the killing
and wounding of not less, it is thought,
than forty-five thousand men on both
sides. The .enemy's los.s,bas unques
tionably been enormous, far greater
than ours, which in killed and wound
ed will not exceed fifteen thousand.
We have lost many prisoners, but
not more than five thousand.
All the bridges were blown up by
Gen. McClellan as he retreated, and all
the property, stores, &e., that he could
not save were destroyed.
The enemy got very little besides a
portion of our siege guns and about
forty pieces of light artillery.
We captured a number of the ene
my's artillery, and also took many pris
oners, but were compelled to release
most of them rather than be encum
bered with them.
The Richmond Dispatch, of Monday,
announces the death of Stonewall
Jackson and Gen. Barnwell Bhett, of
South Carolina.
WASHINGTON, Tuly 3.—There is no
doubt that the losses in the battles
before Richmond are greatly exagger
ated, as there is no means of ascertain ,
ing the figures at this time.
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE POTOMAC,
TURKEY ISLAND, July 2, 1862.
The following is an account of the
battles fought in front of Richmond on
Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, the
fifth, sixth, and seventh days of the en
gagement: '
On Sunday morning the corps of
Sumner• and Franklin were left in the
works at Fair Oaks, with instructions
to evacuate and protect the baggage
and supply trains on their way to
Samos river. They had hardly left
their position, and were falling back
on the railroad and \Villiamsburg turn
pike, when the, enemy discovered the
mtivyment and iffimediately started in
pursuit with their 4,,,Affile force.
So rapidly did they approach that
our officers had barely time to place
their men in position to receive them,
before they yere upon them.
The enemy adranced to an attack
about two o'clock, which was prompt
ly met by our men. The battle lasted
until dark, clueing which the enemy
sulTered terribly. They advanced in a
solid mass to within a short distance
of our artillery, and the effect of our
guns on their ranks was fearffil. They
were killed and wounded by hundreds.
At dark the enemy were, repulsed,
and forced to abandon their position.
This battle took place about one and a
half miles above Savage Station.
While the battle was in progress
other important events were transpi
ring. The railroad bridge over the
Chickahominy was burned, and a train
of twelve cars, under a full head of
steam, was run overboard. All the
commissary and quartermaster stores
were committed to the flames, togeth
er with a large amount of ordnance
stores.
The large house at the station, and
the adjoining grounds, which were
filled with our sick and wounded,
whom it was impossible to remove.,
were left under the charge of our sur
geons, with all tbe, necessaries at hand
for their comfort. They number about
seven hundred, 4 , ?(,1 are now in the
enemy's hands.
The troops which had fought the
battle of Sunday retreated, under the
cover of night, to White Oak Swamp
Bridge, a distance of about twelve
miles, there to await the approach of
the enemy.
The disi)osition of the troops on
Monday, the sixth day, was as follows :
Gen. Smith's division, supported by
Gen. Negley's brigade, occupied the
right of the bridge, while Stunner and
Franklin's corps were on the left.
lleintzelman's corps,with Gen.McCall's
division, was posted. out on - the New
Market road to meet the enemy, who
was approaching from the direction of
Richmond. The enemy came up bold
ly early in the forenoon, havini , been
heavily reinforced by troops that had
fought the battle of Friday on the op
posite side of the Chickabotniny.
At about 2 o'clock it became evident
that some portions of our lines must
give way, as the enemy were evident
ly throwing fresh troops into action.
Our troops in front of the bridge now
tell back to within three and a half
miles of Turkey Island bridge, where
the fight was shortly after renewed,
and continued with the greatest deter
mination on both sides.
The loss on Monday was very heavy
on both sides. During the day all the
cattle and a greater part of the trans
portation had safely crossed Turkey
Island bridge. Some of the rear wag
ons were abandoned and fired on this
day in order to make room for the ar
tillery.
The BeAtle on Tpesday.
The fight was renewed` early on
Tuesday morning by the enedly; who
evidently expected to crush our army.
It lasted about three hours, resulting
in considerable loss to both paitieS.
The enemy then' retired, leaving the
field to cull.. troops: They again ad
vanced about 8 to'clock P. M., in con
siderable force, bit 'retired after being
shelled by the gunboats and artillery
for about two hours, without coming
near enough for the use al' .musketry
The- loss of our army during_ these
seven days' engagements is not known,
but twenty thousand is considered as
near an estimate as can, at-present, be
given 'in killed , wounded, and missing.
Many of those, at present unaccounted
for may have straggled away through
the country, and may hereafter re,
turn.
The loss of the enemy in killed must
have been very heavy, far exceeding
that of our army.
We have talion about seven hundred
prisoners, among whom are three ; lieu
tenant ,colonels and one mato' r.
The 'reported capture of Gen. Ma
gruder is probably a mistake.
The loss in field artillery during the
seven days amounted to about thirty
guns.
General Reynolds and Capt. Kings
bury of his staff were taken prisoners,
as was also Col. Stockton of Michigan.
General Mead, of Pennsylvania, was
severely wounded.
General Burns was wounded in the
face. Generals Sumner and Heintuel
man were both slightly wounded in
the left arm, but they did not leave
the field.
General McCall was seen to fill from
his horse during the battle of:Monday.
He was taken prisoner. The extent
of his injuries is not known.
Col. Gosline, of the 95th Pennsylva
nia Regiment, was killed; also, Capt.
Camblos, of the sth (regular) Cavalry.
Captain Whiting, of the Fifth caval
ry, was wounded and taken prisoner,
and his son, a lieutenant in the same
re ,, iment lost his left arm.
Col. Pratt, of the 31st New York
Regiment, was wounded in the face.
The army is now encamped on high,
rolling ground on the banks of the
James river,ls miles from Richmond.
The transports are already unloading
supplies at the wharves.
Opinion of General McClellan
The Commanding General feels con
fident of successfully meeting any at
tack that the enemy may make on his
present position. The moving of the
army over to James river was not a
part of the general plan, as has been
stated. The attack of Jackson's for
ces on the right, last Thursday and
Friday, made this movement a neces
sity, in order to save the army from
total annihilation, as the reinforce
ments received by the rebels gave them
a force double that of the Army of the
Potomac.
Among the prisoners taken during
the battle were a number belonging to
Beauregard's army.
MARRIED,
On Sunday, the 22d of June, by
Rev. - Brads, Mr. THEODORE L. FLOOD
to Miss ANNIE BLACK, both of this
place.
So we go I First one—then anoth
er—drifting slowly and surely, day by
clay, into the maelstrom of matrimony.
In their happiness and joy of newly
wedded life they paused for a moment
to think of the printer,and the poor disci
ple of Faust was remembered in the
shape ofa cake about the size of a bread
basket, for which we hereby tender our
heartiest congratulations to the happy
couple, hoping they may enjoy an end
less career of prosperity and sunshine.
And furthermore, when the rose-tinted
dream begins to pale before the accu
mulation of the musty cobwebs of
Time, may their love for each other
undergo no change but only grow the
deeper and stronger.
