SHALL OUR SOLDIERS VOTE?
The Rehel Sympathizers say, No !
LOYAL MEN, RALLY!
We call upon every loyal reader of
the Globe, tcrgive at least a half day
this week to secure a full turn out of
the soldiers' friends on Tuesday . next,
the 2d day of August. Many voters
in the townships aro not aware that so
important an election is so near at
band, and it is the duty of every good
Union man to make it his business to
see such voters before the day of elec
tion. The bogus Democrats aro wor
king secretly in every township—they
have their secret organizations as they
lad last spring—and their full vote
will be out, and we have good reason
to believe that it will be cast almost
unanimously against the amendment
giving the brave soldier the right to
vote. It is therefore important that
every Union vote in the county should
be polled, and they can be if loyal
men in each township will take the
trouble to rally their friends. The
election on Tuesday next is just as im
portant as the Presidential election,
and we hope the friends of the sol
diers and of the best Government on
earth, will turn out to the last man
and vote to secure to our brave boys
in the hospitals and in the field.a voice
in the choice of the next President.
Who will say that because a man
has shouldered Ids musket in defence
of his country, he must bo denied the
privilege of a freeman?
To Hi - An the Copperheads talk, ono
would imagine that "all is lost—all is
lost." They will detail to you the
most doleful--stories of the condition
to which Lincoln is bringing our coun
try. Of course, Lincoln is the cause
of everything. Lincoln brought on
the war: The rebels want to quit and
sue for peice,•but Lincoln says the
war must go on. Lincoln's got a 'fat'
thing of it, and ho means to hold on to
it. Because ho will not negotiate
with a couple of unauthorizsd peace
.traitors in Canada, Lincoln does not
want the war to stop. Did any one
ever before hear of such a vile slander.
Thank God, Lincoln is as far above
the traitors North and South, as Hea
ven is above hell.
le t , Lieut. Green. Dorsey has re
turned home from the army, looking
pretty well worn out. We understand
his health compelled him to resign his
post as Quartermaster of the 110th.
We hope he may soon recover and be
ready for any further call.
Ir we could find nothing in the Ad,
ministration to applaud—nothing in
our bravo , and gallant armies to ad
mire—if wo could see and feel 'noth
ing but despotism in our Government
—if we believed that anarchy ruled
the hour—if we could see everything
to condemn in our armies and every
thing to applaud in the rebel armies—
if we could see such saints in Jeff. Da
vis, Gen. Leo and all tho other rebel
officials and Generals, and nothing but
weak imbeciles in Gens. Grant, Meado,
Hooker, and a host of others, as the
traitors of this borough 410, we would
certainly go South and enter the reb
el army, where we would properly be
long. We pray the Almighty that
one and all may go South and enter
the rebel-ranks. The war would then
be over in a very short time. Wo
would then know who we bad to fight,
and instead of having an armed ene
my in our front - and a worse enemy
in our rear, we would have them all
in our front, the North would be a
unit, and that unit would crush this
rebellion in a very short time. Hour
prayers would accomplish this object,
we feel assured that every loyal man,
woman and child, in the North would
never cease praying until every trai
tor went South and bad a rebel mus
ket in his hands. They are not only
traitors to the North, but they arc
traitors to the South, for they havo
espoused their cause and will not as
sist them to fight it out, and when
you go to lay hands on them, they
claim the protection of the very Gov
ernment they despise. how many
tenediet Arnold's are there in the
North? Their name is legion.
Commutation on the Draft.
Tho Harrisburg Telegraph says :
"There seems still to be much misun
derstanding in reference to the period
for which the $3OO commutation here
tofore paid, will exempt a conscript.
Tho Provost Marshal General has de
cided this point very clearly, and in
order that the decision may be fully
understood, we have endeavored thus
to simplify its true meaning: All com
mutations of $3OO, if made at any time
PRIOR to Febritar. ISO 4, DOES EXEMPT
FOR 'THREE YEARS. In February the
law was changed so * that the payment
of $3OO henceforth exempted only for
the impending draft ; while since the
passage of the act of this month there
is no commutation whatever. All who
are henceforth drafted, and are found
liable must serve in person or by Substi-
tote. This certainly simplifies the law,
so that there need be no difficulty
hereafter in comprehending its true
meaning and intent."
For the °lobo.
Party Spirit.
Now that NVO are approaching the
time of our regular election of Chief
Ilagistrate, and before ... the contest
opens it may be wise for us to stop a
moment, and each ask himself, how
much ho is led by party ? Whether in
deciding what, shall be his course in
this campaign', ho intends to be govern
ed by his own judgment, or whether
he, intends to be governed by his par
ty:'' Agreat many in times past, have
only waited to see what their party
laid down as the rule of conduct, not
what their country demanded, or their
own judgment approved. But it seems
to me, at this time we, as citizens have
a fearful responsibility resting upon
ns ; and Would it not be well to see
whether we have not been tyrannized
over by party about long enough. The
Father of his Country when about to
retire to the shades of private life, in
speaking of the baneful effects of par
ty, says :
"This spirit unfortunately, is insep•
arable from • our nation, having its
root in the strongest passion of the
human mind. It exists under differ
ent shapes in all governments more or
less stifled, controlled or repressed;
but in those of the popular form it is
seen in its greatest rankness and is
truly their worst enemy. The alter
nate domination of one faction over
another sharpened by the spirit of re.
vengo, natural to party dissension,
which in different ages and countries
has perpetrated the most horrid enor
mities, is itself a frightful despotism.
The disorders and miseries which re
sult gradually incline the minds of
men to seek security and repose in
the absolute.power of an individual,
and sooner or later the chief of some
prevailing faction, more fortunate than
his competitors, turns this disposition
to the purposes of his own elevation
on the ruins of the public liberty.
Without looking forward to an extrem
ity of this kind, (which nevertheless
ought not to be entirely out of sight)
the common and continual mischiefs
of the spirit of party, are sufficient to
make it the interest and duty of a wise
people to diScourage and. restrain it."
If in the days of Washington it was
the part of wisdom to discourage and
restrain party,'. can it be otherwise
now? I kno that all more politi
cians will be ready to cry out, "great
is Party," because by it they get posi
tion—but we the people , ought to be
gin to Roo that in "Union there is
strength." That if we wish to sue
coed in our undertaking of conquer
ing the rebels, we ought to be united.
And I believe all truly loyal men will
discard party, and will only ask the
question, How can I bust serve my
country 7—What effect will the suc
cess of this or that candidate have on
the suppression of the rebellion ?
Whose success will most encourage
the "bravo boys in blue" under Grant
and Sherman, and most discourage
the rebels under Lee and Johnson ?
'We know there are those who cannot
got above party prejudice who are
honest. And there aro those who
aro determined to use that prejudice
to divide us of the North for the pur
pose of enabling the South to succeed,
will we who have brothers and sons
battling in the army to put down this
rebellion: give "aid and comfort" to
their enernies by factious opposition,
and seriously, can wo fight the ad
ministration without giving the reb
els "aid and comfort ?" I as ono do
not belieVe that it is possible, and
therefore shall not make the attempt,
believing as I do, that it was the
sworn duty of the President to ~,put
down the rebellion by force, and that
it is the duty of the army in the field
'to assist him. So it, is the duty of
the citizen at home to sustain him.
Of course all who aro disloyal and who
prefer the success of the rebels to the
success of the Government, will differ
with me, and the only question with
them will be, How can I best serve
the rebels Por if that view of the case
looks too much like treason, they will
try to disguise the truth and hid©
themselves in the fog of party preju
dice, and try to satisfy their conscience
with the miserable excuse that their
party" is of more importance than any
thin gelso. To all such let me remind
you that such excuses will not satisfy an
intelligent public—will not stand the
test of time, and you will yet wake
up to the fact that the bed you have
made for yourselves "is shorter than
that a man can stretch himself on it,
and the covering narrower than that
ho can wrap himself in it," and you
may live to hate yourselves f the
part you have played in this time
"that tries men's souls," and if you lot
your love of party, array you against
your country and its defenders, tho
most bitter ingredient in your cup of
remorse will be the fact "that you
know your duty but you did it not."
WAR DEMOCRAT.
m. As wo regard the union and
success of the Union Party of this coun
ty of more importance than wo do a
controversy with disorganizers, wa
shall refrain for the present from re
plying to any "sorehead" attacks up
on us. Those who choose to ho blirid
folded and made tools of to gratify
disorganizers and rebel sympathizers,
will have themselves to blame if they
"stick in the mud."

.CZ' We have been kindly permit
ted to publish the following extract
from a letter to Gon. S. Miles Green,
from his son Lt. Joseph A. Green,
who has been at Campt Stoneman,
D. C., for some months, in which are
many of the Libby prisoners recupera
ting. The letter is dated Sandy Hook,
Md., Ju1y.8,1864. . •
"I have just ridden round from

I am acting as A. 'A. Genl., for Col.
Young, commanding loft wing. I
have been very well, but hugely busy
—have not had any sloop for three
nights and days. Our horses have
been without forage since our arrival
so that my whole party, men and ani
mals, are pretty well "played out."
My noble Major Sawyer steed, stands
it finely; yet a few such trips, knocks
a $2OO horse* soon into a "crow bait."
We have only lost one man from our

return to Camp Stoneman, in a few
days; do not think we will have any
more fighting. We have captured
several prisoners. Would write more
in detail, but have not time.
JOSEPH A. GREEN,
Lt. 13th P. V. C.
Not having heard from the Lieut.,
since Bth inst., we aro infcirmed that
the cavalry did not return to Camp
Stoneman, but pursued the marauders
to Leesburg, captured 80 wagons fill
ed with corn and oats, and many pris
oners—and all safe. As many of the
Lieutenant's friends desire to hear of
his whereabouts, the above extract
may gratify them.

From the Army of the Potomac.
WASHINGTON, July 20th.—Informa
tion received from the headquarters of
the Army of the Potomac, dated July
11th, says that the usual quiet still
prevails along the linos, and wore it
not for the sound of an occasional gun
and some picket firing at a few points,
one would suppose that no enemy was
within miles of us.
Burnside's men make the most of
the noise, the enemy taking every op
ortunity to fire at the colored troops
that occupy a portion °this front, and
of course the fiiro is returned with in
terest; but without much damage on
either side. No deserters came in at
this part of the lines, as they say they
haVe no chance to get through with
out running the risk of being shot, the
negroes being so constantly on the
alert. But they are coming in at oth
er 'points daily in squads.
A Sergeant and his squad came in
this morning, and-all report that thous
ands are ready to leave as fast as they
find au opportunity.
• The deserters come principaly from
Georgia ; Florida and Alabama regi
ments, and an officer of a regiment
from le former 'State, is said to have
gone'to his superior a day or two since,
and reported that if his company was
not soon relieved ho would have none
to relieve, as they would have all gone
over to the enemy. '
They state that they are very short
of provisions, particularly vegetables,
and seem glad enough when they get
into our lines. Strict orders being giv
en that they shall not hold intercourse
with our men on the picket, or ex
change papers. And one fellow, the
other day, who came boldly over and
brought a paper with him, was caught
and made to stand and wave the pa
per back and forth for an hour as a
punishment.
An attack from the enemy has been
expected for the past two days, and
last night, from what the deserters
reported, it was looked for as certain;
but no demonstration was made. •
It has looked like rain all the after
noon, but none has fallen yet, and dust continus to envelop everything.
Union Victories in Mississippi.
MEmrurs, July 19.—1 am - indebted
to one of Gen. Washburne's staff for
tho following :
On the sth inst. Gen. Washburno
sent out a force of infantry, cavalry
and artillery from LaGrange; under
Major-Gen. A. J. Smith and Brig. Gens.
Mower and Grierson, with instructions
to move in pursuit of Gen. Forrest and
bring him to bay, fight and whip him.
He was ordered.to Pursue him to Col
umbus, Miss.,
if he did not overtake
this side. Adispatch from Gon. Smith
to Gun. Washburn°, received to-day
says:
"We have met Leo, Forrest. and
Walker at Tupelo, and whipped them
on three different days. rOur loss is
small comparing with that of the reb
els. I bring back everything in good
order arrd nothing was lost.
A scout, since arrived at La Grange,
reports the enemy's loss 2,500, and
their defeat was overwhelming. It
is reported that the rebel General
Foulkner and:.Gen. Forrest were
wounded. Gen. Fora
Odin tho foot arid his horse equipments
captured. ;;;-
From other sources I .learn that
Smith met Forrest near Pontotoc on
IVednesday UM 13th, and fought him
on that day, and also on Thursday
and Friday, drivingg. him below Tu
pelo, whippinghim badly . in five dif
ferent battles. :.Our loss is said to be
less than 300, while that of the enemy
was over 2,000,.:
Defeat of the Rebels by Gen. Crook,
Ihroisnuao; July 20.—Important
despatches were received here last
night, from which it is indicated that
our forces are steadily and successful
ly pursuino• the rebels who recently
ravaged the eastern portion of Mary
land, and that .the pursuing party is
wresting large - amounts of plunder
from the rebels.
General Crook, while in the. pursuit
on:Monday last, overtook the enemy
at Snicker's Gap, Va., where a sharp
and for a time terrific encounter took
place. The rebels fought like devils,
anxious to save the grain and cattle
they had succeeded in carrying that
far from Maryland . Gen; Crook, how
ever, was as determined that they
should not escape and whipped thorn
thoroughly, capturing over 800 wag
ons heavily laden with grain, and
took many prisoner's.
As usual, the enemy left his dead
and wounded on the field to be bur
ied and eared for by our troops.
From Gen, Sherman,
WAFUTINGTON, July 23.
The Republican, in an extra, says: .
The Government is in receipt of a des
patch today from the telegraph opera
tor at Chattanooga, via. Louisville, in
the following words :
Atlanta is not ours yet. Our forces
find strong opposition. It seems that
we are in possession of a part of the
city, but the enemy holds the rest.
Some official despatches received
*Om Gen. Sherman's army, give some
details of the fight between the rebel
army, under Gen. Hood and the Union
force in front of Atlanta.
The fight lasted several hours and
was very severe. The enemy assault
ed our lines in strong force and were
repulsed with great slaughter and driv
en back into the fortifications leaving
from six to eight hundred dead on the
ground, who were subsequently buried
by our men.
Four thousand rebel prisoners were
captured, most of whom had been
wounded and left on the field.
Our loss is reported 'at about fifteen
hundred.
Gen. Sherman has destroyed all the
enemy's lines of communication, ex
cept the road to Macon, and has prob
ably succeeded in .cutting up that by
this timo.
P. S.—Fighting Joe at his old tricks
The semiofficial news annexed above
relates to the fight of last Wednesday.
General Hooker, commanding the
20th Corps, in advancing his lines on
Wednesday, mot the enemy in an
open field, and a most desperate bat
tle, lasting several hours, was the re
sult. The enemy Nyne thoroughly
whipped and driven from the field.
After the battle General Hooker re
ported to Sherman as follows : "I have
buried four hundred dead rebels and
four thousand wounded lie in my
front."
Averell Defeats -Early.
WASIIINGTON, July 21.—A despatch
from Gen. Hunter reports the follow
ing, just received from Gen. Averell :
NEAR WINCRESTR, July 20, 1864.
Breckinridge divided his force at Ber
ryvilo last night, sending Barly to Win
chester and taking the other division
towards Millwood.
I attacked and defeated Early to
day, in front of Winchester. killing and
wounding over 800 of hs °Sliders and
men, capturing four cannon, several
hundred stand of arms and about two
hundred prisoners.
General Lilly is seriously wounded
and in our bands.
Colonel Board of the 58th Virginia
Regiment is killed.
The cannon and prisoners have been
sent to Martinsbnrg.
The enemy's loss in officers is heavy.
The prisoners admit their force to
have peon five thousand. The com
mands of Jackson and Imbodon, which
were present, are not included in the
mentioned strength.
LATEST FROM SHERMAN.
WASHINGTON, July 25.
A dispatch received to-day from
Gen. Sherman states that his loss in
the battle of Friday last was loss than
2000, while that of the enemy cannot
be less than 7000, owing to the advan
tage Sherman took of their effort to
turn his left column. There is no of
ficial information to show our forces
have entered Atlanta.
Maj. Gen. 11Pherson, during the
battle, became separated from his
staff, and was killed by sharp•sbooters
firing from an ambuscade. The loss
of Gen. McPherson is deeply deplored
by the Government, and will fill the
hearts of all loyalists with sadness and
gloom.
After Gen. MePherson's death, Gen.
Logan assumed command of his grand
division.
Our forces had obtained pbssession
of the elevated ground on the north
east of the town, and that siege guns
had been mounted which commands
the place; the rebels were burning
their stores preparatory to a retro
grade movement. Everybody feels
confident that Atlanta,
by this time,
has fallen into our hands.

lINIVEIRSAL CLOTHES WRINGER.
."A child can readily wring out a tubfull of clothes in
a few minutes. It is In reality a CLOTHES SAVER! A
Than &twill and a BUXOM SAVOR! Tho saving of gar
ments will alone pay a large por centugo on its cost. We
think the machine much more than "pays for itself ere
ry year" in the saving of garments! • There aro amoral
kinds, nearly alike in general construction, but we con
sider it Important that the Wringer ho fitted with Cogs,
utherwiso a mass of garments may clog the rollers, and
tho rollers upon the crank-shaft slip and tear the clothes,
or the rubber break loose from t h e shaft. Our own is one
ot the first maim, sod it is as GOOD AB NEW after nearly
