The Contest is Not Between Republi-
cans and Democrats
The great trick of our enemies, the
enemies alike of social order and po
litical peace, is to place the contest for
Governor on the grounds of a political
struggle between Democrats and Re
publicans. By doing so, the treason
sympathisers in the North hope to
arouse the old enthusiasm, the old en•
orgy, the old charms and the old pat•
riotism of the old Democratic party,
which Madison and Jack Son led, anti
with these elements achieve a mis
chievous victory for objects diametri
cally opposed to all the true inter
ests of every State in the Union. How
ever shallow the trick is, it is likely to
deceive many good men into voting
for a bad man, and therefore it is time
that it were exposed and exploded.
Instead of the contest being 'one be
tween Democrats and Republicans, it
is purely a fight carried on by the slave
powcr against Democrats and Repub
licans, and thus by a union of the hon
est Democracy and Republicans, this
Blare power, this nest of treason so
long protected by a false Democracy,
can only be destroyed. The exist
ence of what is now called the Demo
cratic party is the same as that of sla
very. Both live in and hope to succeed
by rebellion It is hard to discrimin
ate between these two elements of an
tagonism to the Government. The
only difference is, that the slaveholder
in the South has armed boldly to dis
solve the Union and destroy the Gov
ernment, while the slaveholders' tool,
the dough-face Democrat, contents
himself with a sneaking, lying, cow
ardly course of conduct to accomplish
the same results !—Against these
the slaveholder and the dough-face
Democrat, all true Democracy and
faithful Republicanism have been uni
ted, constituting a Union party such
as was never before organized in Penn
sylvania, and before which all opposi
tion will give way in October next.
In Pennsylvania, party lines have
been broken up, and a union effected
between all who are loyal, for the pur
pose- of counteracting the influences
of those who are disloyal. The claims
of party, in the consideration of loyal
men, are insiffnifieant in comparison
with the claims of the Government.
When that Government, has been ful
ly vindicated, when its laws have all
been enforced, when its power has
been felt in all portions of its territory,
then perhaps parties will be re organ
ized. But until then, all contests will
be between loyal men and traitors—
those for and those against the country.
.40.. Noble Speech by a Union Democrat.
The Union Convention of Wisconsin
nominated Lucius Fairchild, of the
Iron brigade, who has led the old 2nd ;
Wisconsin through many a storm of
shot and shell, and lost an arm at Get
tysburg, as Secretary of State. In ac
cepting the nomination he said:
"I 'have no political aspirations, I
ask no office. My heart is in the army.
And my heart is also in that cause at
home which will help the army. Ido
not, I cannot agree with the Deno-
orals with whom I have always acted
upon the issues of the day ; and I say
it with sorrow, because it cuts me loose
for the time from all my political asso
ciates, but I cannot believe they are
right now, I cannot believe any dis
couragement to the Government can
help to put down rebellion, and not'
believing it, I cannot go with them in
support of any policy which is not in
fitvor of the Administration.
Whether I like this Administration
or not—whether I like what it has
done or not—l am bound to support
it, because under it wo are to live or
die. This country either lives or dies
in the next two years, and we cannot I
change the Administration, unless we
do it by rebellion, and that is what we
are trying to put down. Personally I
would not turn over my hand for any
office in the State. I entered the army
simply as a matter of duty, and my
earnest wish is to stay there. I have
been told by some friends that they
thought it my duty to accept this nom
ination as I am. I accept it as an in
valid and a cripple. But I accept it.
I accept it with the understanding
that party lines have been kicked
down and we are all Union men. [Ap
plause.] Ido not care whom J train
with or what their policy is, provided
they are fbr putting down this rebel
, lion jp the phortest possible time. 1
accept the nomination. I accept it as
a Union Democrat—as a Union man
—supporting the, Government through
I thick and thin, through everything.—
That is the only platform I have iu the
world."
The speech was received with cheers
upon cheers for tb gallant G'glgilcl
With the empty sleeve, and his bravo
comrades.
-PERSEVERE.-
Property Holders Which Will You
Choose?
The result of the approaching elec
tion in Pennsylvania, remarks the
Jli
ncr's Journal, will be important in ma
ny respects. Besides showing wheth
er the people will or will not sustain
the Government and our soldiers, it
will decide whether the property-hold
ers and tax-payers of this State are
willing or unwilling to secure a dishon
orable and perilous peace, assume the
debt of the rebels, and bring upon
themselves and their children, years
of oppressive taxation.
Now that the rebellion is assuming
waning proportions, and its death
knell is threatened to be sounded by
the fall of Charleston, the Copperhead
papers are making ono more effort to
save their Southern friends. Now is
the time in their opinion to endeavor
to make the best terms for the discern
fitted Rebels. They aro advocating
peace and reconstruction on the basis
of the North assuming to pay the
debt contracted by the Southern trai
tor in the prosecution of a wicked and
causeless rebellion against this Govern
ment. Presuming that the North
could be induced to entertain the pro
position, are the property-holders, tax
payers, and laboring men of tile loyal
States aware of the enormous amount
of the Sobthern debt'—Rebel journals
acknowledge that through mismanage
ment of the finances, consequent de
preciation of tile currency, and a reck
less expenditure to carry on the war,
the debt of the Confederate Govern
ment has reached two thousand milli
ons of dollars.
Tax-payers of Pennsylvania, the en
emies of the Government are resolved
to make the election in Pennsylvania
in October next, a test of whether you
are fitvorable to a dishonorable, peace
with the assumption of this great debt
or• not. :fudge Woodward the Copper
head candidate for Governor, is the
representative of this propoSed com
promise, while Andrew G. Curtin
stands upon a Platform -which recog
nizes nothing but tile integrity of the
Government; the maintenance of the
Constitution and the Union ; and the
punishment of the men who inaugura
ted and carry on the rebellion. You
must decide upon these two represen
tative men. If you elect Woodward,
in all probability an effort will be made
to effect au ignoble peace, and saddle
the Southern (VA upon you. Failing in
this, if the rebels continue stubborn,
the war will be prolonged, and the en
tire population be drafted. The true
pOlicy is to make the blows rapid,sure
and heavy, until the rebels are entire
ly subdued. The rebellion must
speedily if Goy. Curtin is elected, for
the rebels will see that the people of
the :North are determined, and will
lose heart to continue a fruitless
struggle.
This is an important matter. It in
volves a question whether thousands
of lives and millions of treasure shall
be saved. They can and will be if the
people of this State, casting aside all
mere party predilections, will at the
coming election, vote so that the re
sult will strike terror to the hearts of
the Rebels. A Union victory in Octo
ber in this State will be worth as much
towards hastening peace as a decisive
triumph of our arms in the field. Pro
long this war unnecessarily, or [sting
it to a conclusion if it were possible on
the terms proposed by Copperhead
journals, and the home of every tax
payer and laborer would for years feel
the burden of oppressive taxation.
This is a subject which should en
gage the calm, intelligent attention of
every thoughtful man. Let him choose
carefully, fur a:mistake in October next
may be a source of keen regret for
years. Rest assured that the path of
duty is trodden by such pleasant com
panions as happiness and prosperity,
individual and national.
A SOLDIER in the 104th Pa. Regi
ment, now before Charleston, in a re
cent letter says:
"Does nut every one who has a
friend or relative in the army desire
to see the man elected who ho knows
by experience will care for that friend
or relative? Will not every person
who has any one soldiering whom he
esteems, vote for his soldier-relative's
best friend—Governor Curtin? I sup
pose some one will object that Curtin
is a Republican. Now can anybody
be so absurd as to vote for a Copper
head because the Union nominee is a
Republican ? I hope any true Demo
crat who has seta or relative in the
army will not vote against their best
friend, The breeders of and sympa
thizers with treason must be laid out.
If a man won't sustain the war nod
the soldiers, he is not fit to live under
our Government. To place a Copper
head at Harrisburg would be more
disastrous to our cause than an inva
sion of our State by the rebels. Let
`every patriot aid in re-electing our
I just, L a id and able Governor."

"The, Hand is Dead."
An Incident in the Tour of Gov. Curtin
I.Flon rho Phila. Press.)
The panorama of life, in times such
as these, is thrillingly yaried, intensely
enthusiastic, wonderfully attractive,
and decidedly interesting: In thus
speaking, we allude particularly to
that class of public men who occupy
an exalted and proud position in State
or _National affairs. Of this class, Gov.
Andrew G. Curtin has a prominent
place before the people of the State—
in fact, we may truly say, the world.
In his present tour, an incident •occur
red that caused the tear of sympathy
to start in the eye of the Governor.—
He had addressed a large meeting at
Catasauqua, in the mountain region.—
As the sun was first receding behind
the mountain-top, and casting a long
shade in the valley, the Governor took
passage in the train bound for more
level regions. He arrived in Philadel
phia in due time, having been mot half
way by Colonel W. B. Mann, and by
him and two other warm admirers was
conducted to the Continental, where
he sought repose. His nature was
well-nigh exhausted. The want of
sleep, the fatigue of travel, the event
ful scenes of his life, the universal hand
shakings, the surrounding crowds, the
vivacity and vociferations of the
thronging multitude, all of which he
had so recently passed through, made
it necessary for retirement.
Ile was to start the next day on
some business relative to the defence
and protection of the State, in ease of
another rebel raid, which seemed to'be
projected.
About ton o'clock in the morning
there appeared iu the vestibule of the
Continental, a well dressed young lady.
She was by herself. Her face betoken
ed hard usage, that had added to her
appearance ten years to her natural
life. She attracted more than ordina
ry attentions of the throng moving to
and fro through the main• avenue of
that palatial building. She maintained
her silence, and appeared wrapped in
deep thought.
Presently Colonel Win. B. Mann
came down the largo winding marble
steps; a slight tap on his shoulder
caused him to stop. The young wo
man stood before him, and said : "Sir,
you are Win. B. Mann, I believe."
"I am, madam, what do you wish ?"
"I desire to see Governor Curtin."
- "Welt, nulatii, he is very much en
gaged at present; is your business
pressing—is it of a public character ?"
"I desire to see him ; I have come
all the way flout Ohio for the purpose.
I have been to Catasamput, but the
train was too late; I arrived in the
city this morning and must see him ;
ho is .the only dear friend I have on
earth."
Such an appeal was resistless. The
gallantry of Col. Mann, as well as his
business, could brook no delay. He
retired for a moment, and presently
ushered the strange lady into the pre
sence of the Governor.
"Oh ! Governor, I am so glad to see
you," said she, as she placed her left
arm upon his shoulder and imprinted a
kiss upon his manly forehead.
"Madam," said he, quite overcome,
"to what am I indebted for this unex
pected salutation r
"Sir, do you not know ?"
"Take a chair," said the Governor,
blandly, at the same time extending
one of the handsomest in the room.
Col. Manwand the few gentlemen
present at once became interested in
the scene, and Silently looked on.
"Shortly after the battle of Antietam
you were upon that bloody :field," said
she to the Governor.
"I was," replied the Governor,
thoughtfully-, with a sigh as the fearful
scenes of carnage wore thus unexpect
edly brought to his memory.
"You administered to the wants of
the wounded and the dying."
"It was my duty, as a feeling man."
"You did your duty well. Heaven
alone will reward you, sir, for in this
life there is no reward adequately ex
pressive of the merits due you. You,
sir, imparted consolation and revived
the hopes of a dying soldier of the 28th
Ohio. Ho was badly wounded in the
arm ; you lifted him into an ambulance
and, the blood dripping from him,
stained your lmnds and your clothing.
That soldier was as dear to me as life
i tsel f."
"A husband ?" said the Governor.
"No, sir."
"A brother, perhaps."
"No, sir."
"A father?"
"No, sir."
ciA SQR ?"
"No, sir."
"A lover?"
"No, sir."
The little party around were more
interested than ever. If not a litther,
husband, brother, son, or lover, who,
then, could it be ?
"My dear madam," said the Gover
nor, at length breaking the silence,
"this is an enigma to me. Please ex
plain more about the gallant soldier of
Ohio."
"Well, sir, that soldier gave you a
ring—O.E. D. were the letters engrav
ed on the interior. That is the ring
now upon your little finger. He told
you tq wear it,'and eareffilly have you
done so."
The Governor pulled off the ring,
and sure enough the letters were there.
"The #nger that used to wear that
ring will ' never year it any more.—
The band is dead but the soldier still
lives, thanks to your k.ind attention on
that bloody field."
The whole g ( 9 p 3 wap yet a problem
that oven the sagacity of Colonel Nairn
pould not solve. The Governor was
now more interested than ever.
"Well, madam, said. he, "tell 1110 all
'bout it. Is this ring yours Was it
TERMS, $1,50 a year in advance.
given to you by a soldier whom you
loved ?"
"I loved him as I loved my life; but
he never returned that love. He bad
more love for his country than for me;
I honor him for it. That soldier who
placed that little ring upon your finger
stands before you." So saying, the
strange lady arose from her chair and
stood before the Governor.
The scene that now ensued we leave
to the imagination of the reader. A
happy hour passed. The girl who had
thus introduced herself was Catharine
E. Davidson, of Sheffield, Ohio. She
was engaged to be married, but her
future husband responded to the call
of the President, and she followed him
by joining another regiment. Ho was
killed in the same battle where she fell
wounded. She is alone in the world,
her tither and mother having depart
ed this life years ago. She was the
soldier of the 28th Ohio who had placed
the ring upon the finger of Governor
Curtin, for the kind attention given
her upon the bloody field of Antietam.
The right arm had been amputated
about half way between the elbow and
the shoulder. The interview finally
ended, and having at last seen her ben
efactor, she bade him and his friends
adieu, taking with her an order, bear
ing the bold signature of A. G. Curtin
for one of Palmer's patent arms.
We had an interview with the hero
ine. She was modest, although she
had led the life of a "bold soldier boy."
She was:loud in her praise of Governor
Curtin, and is firm in the belief that
through his hardworking energy, pow
ers of physical endurance, and groat
courage, be saved the lives of ten thou
sand soldiers, many of whom still live
to bless his name as one of the "few
immortal, not born to die."
The Voice of our Volunteers
Their Appeal to loyal Pennsylvanians
IN CAMP IN VIRGINIA, Sept. 4, 'G3
TO TUE PEOPLE OP PENNSYLVANIA.
From the Officers of the Pennsylvania
Brigade of Birney's Division.
Fellow• Citizen s :—W° cannot close
our eyes to the fact that the interests
of the gallant men under our command
now fighting to perpetuate the Repub.
lie and the Union, may be jeopardized
in the approaching political contest in
our State; and much as we dislike as
sociating ourselves in Itaty. - war , with
politics, we feel necessitated to -say
something to those Aviles° suffrageS
may be productive of immense good
or incalculable harm. We think wo
"have done the State some service,"
and we feel that a grateful people will
acknowledge it. We look back at the
glorious campaign of the last few
months, and thank God for giving us
strength to drive the invader from
the loyal soil of good old Pennsylva
nia. We feel that we deserve your
thanks, feel also that we shall receive
them, and in that spirit would suggest
how the loyal citizens of Pennsylvania
can best testify their appreciation of
the achievements of the soldiers in the
field.
Wre are upon the eve of bringing to
a triumphant close the most cruel, un
called for, and unrighteous rebellion
that history records—a rebellion hav
ing for its object not only the destruc
tion of the most liberal Government
Heaven ever smiled upon but the es
tablishment of an oligarchy to which
the free men of the North should bend
their knee. We have defeated these
traitors in their every effort; we now
hold their armies in check, ready and
willing at any moment to strike the
fatal blow which shall restore a lasting
peace; but to accomplish this grand
result we must have aid from home—
aid not only in the shape of men, but
patriotic and enthusiastic support of
the Government. This is not the hour
to retire from a contest which promi
ses so glorious a termination; it is the
time when every known agency of
power should be devoted to the Gov
ernment, that, by one grand blow, the
traitors in arms may be compelled to
sue for mercy, and the traitors at
home be silenced forever.
We are prepared to make any and
every sacrifice, oven of our liven, for
the public good ; but we must be care
ful that, while doing this, a wily ene
my in the roar is not permitted to un
do what we have ocean/Oohed; and
we therefore, (being deprived of the
right ourselves;) delegate to yon, fel
low-citizens, the glory of crushing out
of existence the cowardly traitors in
your midst, who are your enemies, our
enemies, the enemies of government,
and the enemies of truth This you
can do at the ballot-box by supporting
only those men who have sustained,
and will in the future sustain, the na
tional government. This is all we ask.
It is very little to ask of loyal men.—
We ask it as a right.
At the coming election you will have
presented to you for your suffras his
Excellency Andrew G. Curtin, who we
claim the privilege of calling "The
Soldiers' Friend." It is unnecessary
to tell you with what affection, esteem
and regard we value him. There is
no Pennsylvania soldier in the field
who does not owe a debt of gratitude
to our present governor. But apart
from this private worth, we regard
him as the representative of the Gov
ernment of the United States, and an
earnest supporter of an unfiinelain„.•
prosecution of the )var. Unless such
men are sustained by our friends at
home, our labors hove gone for nothing.

Another Draft Dependant Upon the
Result of the October Elections,
An officer of the regular army, and
a gentleman who has had much inter
course with conservative men in the
South within the last six weeks recent-
ly wrote to a citizen of Harrisburg,
and in the course of his letter discus
sing the possible speedy end of the
war, lie says:
If the result of the election in Ohio and
Pennsylvania should be adverse to the
il'ational Administration; that is, if the
political opponents of Lincoln succeed in
throwing the influence of Ohio and Penn
sylvania against the Ilrational Govern-.
,mcnt, the war must either be given up at
Once - as hopeless, or another draft muse
immediately be resorted to, by which our
forces in the field may be doubled. My
reason for this position may bo thus
briefly stated : Thousands of people
in the South who were at first impetu
ous in their haste for the precipitation
of rebellion, are now convinced that
the struggle fbr a separate Southern
government is hopeless. They aro
satisfied, that the south, alone cannot
cope with the Government, and unless
the confederacy secure speedy assis
tance either from England, France, or
the Democratic party of the free States,
the Davis government must collapse.—
That France or England will render
this much desired assistance, is not
possible. If the confederacy should
prove a success, both England and
France will be prompt to give it
recognition. But they will never give
it any more aid than the use of money.
Frenchmen nor Englishmen will not fight
for slavery. Hence the rebels only
dare - look to the leaders of the now
Democratic party for the aid which
neither France or England can give,
because these leaders have heretofore
not only acted in alliance with the
slaveholders while they were preparing
the machinery of rebellion, but they
eat dirt at the feet of those rascals
while they were throttling the Govern
ment and robbing the Treasury. If
the Democracy succeed in Pennsylsint
nia and Ohio, the rebels will accept the
success as the evidence of the unpopu
larity of the efforts making by the
Government le preeorve the P1i9 1 17 --
To-day, in fapt, it is understood in the
South, that op only issue involved in
the election in Pennsylvania, is as to
whether the Government should he
maintained or overthrown. if the peo
ple of Pennsylvania elect Woodward, it
will be accepted as a decision against the
Government, and the purpose of the people
of the Keystone State to repudiate the
laws and the Constitution ! When such
a result becomes known in the South,
(and, should it occur, there will be no
time lost in communicating the fact)
thousands of Union men will have no
choice as to what to do. hey will be
compelled to join the rebel ranks by
the force of circumstances. Every
rebel army will thus be swelled tq twipq
its present numbers. And what will
the National authorities be compelled
to do, confronted by such a State of
affairs? They will either bo forced to
abdicate in favor of Jeff. Davis and his
associates in crime, or they will be
compelled tq resort to another draft.—
The positions as I here state them Are
well understood at the Sqgth. Would
