POSTPONEMENT. —ln compliance with
the earnest appeals of many prominent
Union men, citizens of different coun
ties in the State, urging that the meet
ing of the Union State Convention
called for the 19th of July, ensuing, bo
deferred until further notice, the an

city of Harrisburg. Duo notice will

THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE has reach
ed its twentieth volume. We have al
ways regarded it as ono of the very
ablest journals in the State, distin
guisbed as well for its editorial indus
try as for its typographical beauty.
May it continue to prosper for many
years to come is• our greeting to its
editor on the anniversary of its birth
day.—Daily liarrisbitry
Thank you, for the high toned com
pliment. We could . •aay the same of
you, but it is unnecessary in view of
the fact that while in the midst of
your late misfortune of a destroyed
office your industry prompted you to
secure continued and - uninterrupted
appreciation:pi your beauty and Abili
ty.. May The fiery - ordeal through
which you.bavepassed have thorough
ly purged you of any to us unnolieca:
.blo defects. We would remind you,
however; good friend, the Globe has
reached its twenty first volume.
DISAPPOINTED.—According to some
folks, we Were.to have an awful time
in this country immediately or shortly
after the war closed. Industry was Lo
'be completely paralyzed; monetary
:affairs, public and private, wore to be
all deranged; hundreds of thousands
of people were to be destitute of em
ployMent : and banhruptey, starvation
.and ruin were to be universal.
It is nearly three months siuco Rich
mond fell and Lee surrendered.; and
yet we see no sign of this aWful state
of - affairs yet. On the contrary, all
our industries aro gradually and
happily adapting themselves to the
now and better limes in which we live;
business is on an excellent basis, and
is greatlY enlarging itself by the re
turn of public confidence and the
opening: of the South; our financial . af
fairs •are sound and strong; 'bur dis
banded Soldiers are everywhere retur
ning to their farms, workshops, and
former occupations; and the general
prosperity of the people is marvel
lons.
Thus are the soothsayers always
disappointed. Having predicted defeat
during the war, ruin by the war, and
universal - disaster after, tho war—and
Laving been disappointed in each eaF.e .
—they had bettor now give up croak
ing, and confess tho'danger of indulg
ing in such a vice in this great cOun
try.
NOBLE SENTIMENTS.--ThO sentiments
expressed by President jollii6ON, in
his response to the address of the Con
gregational churches in Boston, are
worthy. of being reproduced in an en
during form. Said he : "In the ardu
ootts and embarrassing duties devolved
upon me,' 1 feel the need of the corp
eration and sympathy of the people,
and of the assistance of the Great Ru
ler of the Universe. These duties I
shall endeavor to discharge honestly,
and to the best of my judgment, with
the conviction that the best interests
of :civil and religious liberty through.
out tho World will be and
promoted by the success and perman,
ency of our country. Let us all labor
to that end, and that mission upon
which this people have been sent am
ong the nations of the earth will be
accomplished."
TiE 'RULE FOR SUFFRAGE.—The N. Y.
Tribune "entreats the early, earnest,
and candid attention of conservative,
p,mce loving Southerners . " in behalf of
fair dealings to negro suffrage.

False serious oppos.ition,
PAwrius, 7 The Chester county Re,
publiegn &Deplocrat lies the following
upon the great Union Party of tosday.
The sentiments co•incide with our own,
and no doubt with those of every loy
al man :
"The Union Party, composed of old
Republicans and Democrats, cemented
together by a common inheritance of
devotion to the national Union, re
quires no new element of strength to
maintain its power, nor no extraneous
intelligence to enable it to govern the
country with wisdom. During the
last four years—a period calculated to
try the stoutest heart and the soundest
judgment—the Union party has pro
ved itself equal to the severest emer
gency, and having conquered rebellion,
has commenced; with a favorable show
of success, the reconstruction of the
parts of the Unior. into.one peaceful,
harmonious whole. Why endeavor to
sunder the bonds which hold this
great party together? Why try to
change its character to one of lesser
dimensions? Is it not now a truly na
tional party, possessed of national in
stincts, and ardently devoted to the
highest national interests 7 It is not
readily discoverable out of what ele
ments a new party can be formed, nor
why the party now in the ascendent
should not continue in power ! For
ourselves we glory in the great Union
part* of the. country, and shall
,cling
to it through good report and evil re:
port, while, in our judgment, it main
tains the integrity of the Union, the
principles of the national Constitution,
and devotes its energies to the wel
hire, safety and happiness of the peo
ple. It has already given to the coun
try a name higher than historic re
nown, to republican institutions it
character for stability beyond the pro
phetic visions of the past, and has
-shown to its enemies a record which
they read with dismay. Let it stand
where it is, and as it is, the preserver
of republican freedom, the defender of
human rights, and the pioneer of na
tional 'virtue, liberty and judopen
deuce.'"
How Grant got into the War.
The well known correspondent of
the Boston Journal, who writes under
the signature of Burleigh, thus relates
the story of Grant's entrance into tho
United States Army at the otitset of
the rebellion :
"Pour years ago this very month,
Mrs. Grant lived in her quiet home in
Galena,. Her husband was Mr. Grant
the leather dealer, a plain, modest re•
liable man, without much apparent
force, who attracted very little atten.
Con any way. The war had commen
ced. The flag had been shot away
from Sumpter, and shot out of a rebel
cannon at Memphis. Ono morning
Mr. Grant called on Congressman
Washburne, who resides in Galena.
He told Mr. W. that ho did not feel
right—that ho could not sleep nights
that he felt that ho was not doing his
duty. Washhtirne asked him what
was the matter. Mr. Grant replied,
"I am doing nothing for my country.
I have been educated at the nation's
expense; but hero I am at home doing
nothing. I don't know what to do.
I am no politician. I don't seem to be
wanted anywhere, yet I feel asif I was
fit for something, WI could only find
my place." Mr. Washburn() invited
his neighbor to accompany him to
Springfield, where an important con
sultation was to bo held at the request
of Gov. Yates. On the morning of the
fourth day, Mr. Grant called on -Mr.
Washburne's rooms, and said to him :
"Nobody knows me hero—there is
nothing for toe to do--I am going
home," "Hold on a day or two lon.
ger," said Washburne. The next day
an important discussion was held in
the council chamber. At Mr. Wash•
burne's request, Mr: Grant was called
in. He held an interview with the
State authorities for thirty minutes,
and then went out. As the door clo
sed, Gov. Yates cried out, "Good God,
Washburno, who is this man ? I have
learned more about troops in those
thirty minutes than I ever know in all
my life. All I can do for him now is
to put him on my staff. You go bomb
and raise a regiment, and I'll commis
sion him as Colonel." The thing was
dono. The rest of the story , the world
knows by heart."
Circular from Postmaster General Den

Post Office Department,
TVashington, June 19, '65. }
To Postmasters:
Congress having by joint resolution,
approved March 3, 1865, declared
"That persons honorably discharged
from the military or naval service, by
reason of disability resulting from
wounds or 'sickness incurred in the
line of duty, should ho preferred for
appointments to civil offices, provided
they shall be found to possess the busi
ness capacity necessary for the prop
er discharge of the duties of finch office,"
and it being my desire to carry into
effect as far as practicable,tho laudable
purposo of this resolution, it is earnest
ly requested . of all postmasters who
have occasion to appoint, clerks or
other employees in their respective
offices, that they give the preference
to such wounded or disabled soldiers
and • sailors who have been honorably
discharged from the military or 'naval
service as are found qualified to per
form satisfactorily the duties of the
positions for which they apply.

thousands - oC c Urfibr‘ troldiers; called a
Southern prison. The heart sickens
to -think of the bat - baron's treatment
these poor men received at the hands
of theireaptors and keepers. The pa
ges of history. give no instances of
such studied, systematic murdering by
piece -meal of prisoners of war. Their
only offense was that they were
caught fighting for their country, in
defense of free institutions and human
liberty. Stripped of nearly all their
clothing, they were kept all winter in
a filthy enclosure with no covering to
shield them from the inclemency of
the weather; and with barely sufficient
of the coarsest kind of food to keep
thorn in a dying condition during the
cold winter morithfii The few who
survived this to s rture,tell us no human
pen or words can d'estiiihe their horri
ble sufferings. But 'though the offer
was 'repeatedly made to give them
plenty of food and clothing, if they
would take the oath to support the
Southern Confederacy, DeWalt and
others spurned it, -prelering rather to
die as heroic martyrs to the cause of
the Union. To what severer test of
their patriotism and devotion to their
country could th6y . have been subject
