are young, vro think there is no time like
spring, and vote that it bo the choicest of all
tbo seasons of the year. As wo mature, and
our personal cxporiehcc "grows broad an d
deep, we think the autumn is fuller of de
lights than spring and summer together.—
This is the most-thoughtful time in all the
year. The influences of atmosphere and col
or, and sun combine to envelope the soul in
a dreaminess too'dcliglitful to be resisted.—
There is a charm in every thing. All sounds
fall mellowed On our ears. Objects look dis
tant, and their sharp out-lines arc subdued
in reaching the cjc. Ilnral charms, espe
cially, aio more charming than ever. The.
patient oxen, plodding homeward with their
loaded wains, whoso yellow riches are to fill
the granaries even to bursting, never appears
no attractive as now. The -early morning
frosts lie width upon the grass, and the fall
ing loaves make a sad-music through,the
aislos and arches of,the woods.
'Such colors as drape the forests and chequer
the pastures, rind flame through the fences

wild happiness. Wo go with the Children af-,

with all our h'cart, ns they plnj in the cool,
bracing winds and drink in the wincof health
from the pure uotcJrrfna! atmosphere. There
are no such suggestions offered the heart at
any other season. Autumn, too, includes the
association of the old Puritan Thanksgiving,
and of the Harvest Home. Then we sit once
more around the newly, lit fires in the hearth,
and chat away the pleasant evening at hom,e.
From beginning to end, it is a season full of
calm and seems like.the. very prinlagc and
perfection of the year.
of a Severn Master. —The
weather prophets predict a severe winter,
one resting his prediction upon certain
supp6scd infallible signs. The principal
signs manifest this year arc the movements
of fishes and migratory birds early in the
season, and the unusual cure of amphibious
animals to provide against cold. It is found
that in Minnesota srid the • northwestern
States the brook trout are leaving, the shah
low streams and breaking to the deep-pools
much earlier than usual, and that the musk
rats are fortifying their hybernating habita
tion^.against the intense cold! weather by
another layer of thick mud. In the east it
is discovered that the wild flreri arc stream
ing southward unusually early this season.
The-fin-ska ow the corn arc arise thicker than
usuhl. These nro regarded as almost infal
lible indications oflft severe winter.

the days of Jonas,’ each one of whom- had a
■particular sign by which to foretell the. sea.
sons.* ‘ *Most of'thorn have been humbugs,
only bitting the mark oncc'in a dozen at
tempts. These popular signs might have
worked well in former times, but all signs
fail now-a-days”—except lager beer signs.—
Yet it is undoubtedly true that an all-wise
Providence has gifted his irrational creatures
with an instinct which enables them to pro
vide suitably against seasons of unusual in
tensity, and this instinct may extend even to
tho vegetable kingdom. And, although phe
nomena'indicative of cold weather have fre
quently been observed of some one species of
animal-or plants, yet not followed by cold
weather, it has hardly ever boon known that
so many concurrent Signs' of long and bitter
cold weather failed or proved deceptive.
We are therefore inclined to accept the va
ticinations of the weather prophets tli-is-time.
If they should proSe true, the ignorant, Con
founding effect with cause, will believe the
,cold wenther was causoc] by lb<? wild-ducks
and the musk-rats and the corn-husks, where
as their instinctive preparations wore but tho
effect of the coming cold. If proud man was

" DEATH TO COPPERHEADS.”
A fow days after the election a landlord of
a one-horao tavern in Phlllipshurg, Centro
gmuity, Hung from a window of bis bouse a
flag bearing tbo inscription “ Death to Cup
pa-heads!’’ 'iiio flag was up but a short

■ The liarrisl urg Telegraph, wh.usp proprio
tor is an ofiicc-bolder under LinCoon’, ■ and
Vrbosc editor is u stipendiary under Curtin,
in speaking of the above cireuni.stnnee, uses
tills language—“ So Jar as the death pj arop
perhend is concerned, that is as desirable as
the death of unarmed traitor !”" So! Then
the 254,171 citizens of Pennsylvania who yu
tod (or Judge Woodward deserve death, do
they ? la that What wo understand the Tele- 1
graph to suggest, and was this UiO moaning
of the inscription on the flag of tlie Pbiilips
burg tavern keeper? It would seem so, for
no oilier meaning can be taken from the flag'
inscription and tbo sentence wo baV6 quoted
from tbo Telegraph. It is nothing more nor
loss than a hold intimation to Republicans
to commence the work of assassination. I'btt
scoundrel who could be guilty of making
such a suggestion deserves to be whipped to
a jelly, and then burned to ashes.
...«Ut7V US assure otir-Democratic WloVv
| citizens that there is meaning in’the above
threats. The same threat liaa_boqn made by
no less a pßrsonttgo than the Seßrßlary of
Wav. A number of .Abolitionofficers Imv
also repeatedly declared that they would
“ r’alhcr shoot dtnpperhcad (Democrat,) than
a rebel.” This language has been used by
“ picayune llurUill/’ Jim Lane, Pope, Mont
gomery, and othet.gentry wearing shoulder
straps. It was used, too, with the approval
of that man of big-feet and tlo bruins, Abra
ham Lincoln, for it is notorious that all the
•officers and menials who indulged in this .in
famous slang, have boon tenderly cared for
bytiic administration.
Would it not bo well, therefore, ■ fof our
Democratic friends to think of these things,
and be prepared to protect themselves in the
cvent'of the Abolitionists daring to pUt their
threats into' execution? The stay-at-home
men of-ttmt accursed party or faction are (
arming nott; ond of tile objects of those troas- ,
enable organizations called “Loyal Leagues,” .
is to arm men aml drill them. This has been
[ascertained to a certainty. 1\ T e advise no
violence; our party is now, his it al\Vnys has
been, law-abiding; but the Abolitionists are
threatening Democrats—they say deserve
(loath ; they fling flags to the breeze bearing
the inscription “ deaih io copperheads" And
we feel disposed to burl back their threats
jntoj.’theii* teeth and bid them defiance. .
AVc hope ncvcr'to see ilnarchy and blood
shed in Dcunsylvariia, but yet we may see,
this Very state of affairs. The clouds are
blacky lowering and portentous;, mad-mon arc
in authority'; corruption and rascals’are at
a premium, and the gaunt abolition wolf
howls and thirsts for blood and plunder.—
Our duty ns Democrats is plain-—it is to pre
pare for the worst, end defend ourselves if
assailed. We hope the Abolitionists are not
in earnest ; wo hope their insolent menaces
are only the cbulitions of coward hearts and
nerveless arms. But if it should prove oth
orwise, and thtf scoundrels who have rcoom-.
mended the assassination of Democrats at
tempt to execute’ thc'ir designs,- then God help
some inenv 'fticn the Democrats cannot be
overpowered by ff green-backs// nor defeated
by a contemptible minority. Then otfr reck
less opponents will certainly discover that
there is truth in the old maxim—* 44 whom the
Gods wish to destroy they first make mad.”
The Coming Draft. — lt is already evident
that Uie appeal of the President made after
tho election to his “loyal and pafriikic”
friends to enlist, to-the number of 300,000,
iu the army “ for three year£ or during the
war,” is entirely disregarded. 1 ’ Republicans
talk a great deal about the popularity of Old |
Abe’s war policy,’ and swear by all that is
holy that it is the duty of all toshoulder n
musket, but yet .when the President appeals
to these same very “ loyal” patriots, they are
non c.v/—not forthcoming. Their professions
arc like their principles—dishonost and fraud
ulent. The draft will therefore take place
in January. Well, on with the lottery ; put
it through—it is one of old Abe’s “popular
measures.” The oftener tho edict goes forth
for more men tho better.- Let tho country
swarm with Lincoln’s body snatchers
and let no Black Republican escape. The
badge, of the,Provost Marshal, the scalpel of
the conscript surgeon, and the horrid draft
wheel arc greater terrors to them than to
Democrats* .*
'0“ If we'nray be permitted to judge by
the returns of the Into* elections in O'hio and
PennP3 , lvania,' tho best way to increase the
population of a country, is to go to-war and
have men killed off, ns some townships, dis
tricts rind Counties, cast more votes at the
late elections for the Republican* candidates,
than their whole nvn’le* population l , sis exhib
ited by the Inst census. The system of col
onization, ■’stuffing, etc., was over done at tho
late elections, and the Republicans them
selves stand appalled at the enormity of tho
swindle!
Preparing for the Winter Session.-**
Workmen hare been preparing tho Capitol
for tho approaching session of the Legisla
ture. • The building has suffered much from
Its occupation by the militia during the past
season. New and handsome carpeting has
been laid in the halls of tho Senate and
House, tho desks have been re-covered, and
both clumbers have been re-painted. Most'
of the members have selected their scatsl ,
■ AST' It is said that Messrs. Jay Cooke &
Company have made $900,000 by tho sale of
the five twenty Government- bonds. They

required to produde sixty thousand conscripts

DEMOCRATS, STAND FIRM.
Wo would urge upon ourDcmocralio friends
the necessity’of keeping tip their organization
in ov’ory township and town. Tbo various
Clubs should tto't b'e disbanded,"but continue
orgfinfr.ed iuid hold regular meetings, ns they
did (prior tB the election’. The result of the
'ctocfiPn in this State warrants the assertion
that the Democrats arc largely in the major
ity. Had it not boon' for the monstrous
frauds committed by the Abolitionists, wc
could have', with all ease,.'overcome the vote
cast by the 15,000 picked ti;oops brought in-
to the State on the eve of the election, and
the 9,000 men in the civil departments, 'who
wore paid for coming to Pennsylvania to vote
for Curtin. We feel satisfied,- that had any
thing like fairness prevailed at th'6 -election,
the State would have boon ours by 50,000
majority. Tbo Vote received by Woodward
(254,171.) was the largest Bv'Or east for a
Democratic candidate in this State. When,
theteforo, wB consider their frauds, villain-
ies, “ green-baeks,” 15,000 Abolition troops,
and 9,000 imported hirelings from Washing
ton, CunTtN’s majority, (taking into consid
eration the immense vote polled.) is con
temptibly small. Thorß werß five hundred
and twenty-three thoViSand, six hundred and
sixty-seVon Votes cast for Governor, and Cua-
Vlfja majority Is only i0,32p. .A drop iu the

Let our friends, their, wo re'pdal, keep up
thß’ir organisation,; let (bom never despair

■I'IIE President a Si'ißlTU.i list. —We know
nothing of tlie truth or untruth of the stories
published iu the Keyr York Jkraltl, ami oth
er nepers, to the effect that Mr. Lincoljn is
an ardent bclieVdf itl Spiritualism, itncl tl fre
quent attendant Upon spiritual Uirtilds, but
the boldhdss with which the statements are
reiterated, lend us to believe that there iitUsl
be at least something in them. Whether
they be correct or fa'isd; we agree fully with
the New York Express, that tin? “ sjfirUa,- ,or
something like them, it is very certain, have 1
now been administering this government two |
years and over, hnd if there can only bo ii
change in them,--and the spirits of Wash
ington, of Madison, of Franklin, of jliicoii.
Fisher Amos, of Olay,, of .Webster, could
govern, instead of the infernal spirits, we
Should bo happy to have them administer tlib
govorrmlCitt. A good spirit inspired the
President when lie bluffed off the Chicago
ministers, teasing iiitil to issiie liis ‘ Pull,’—
but an infernal spirit nliist hove been put
’ Into liini, afterwards, these Chicago min
isters, and worried him into tbo ‘ Pull.’ ”
God Save tile Queen ! —A rumor bits ob
tained crelience ju Pelgium that the Qhonu
of' Fmgbind is disposed to marry a second
time, and that King Leopold, with the whis
kers,-is the individual who hits boon “ tak
ing a sly glance” at her. The King is a
well favored Dutch sovereign, whose hair is
said to bo a-little frosted, and who may there
fore bo supposed to have arrived at years of
discretion. The London press is very indig
nant at the rumor. At the same time, while
thejf pronounce it “a foirl and.dairgcro'us
calumny,”.they aNo atnte v ,their fears about
King Leopold’s visit to Mngland during the
present month. - The advice’of 1 his- “'crafty
diplomatist,” rfs they stylo him’, 1s ssli’d nev
er to have’ been given to or taken V/y the
Queen without “injtfry to her welfare and
honor.” For our part.'we can’t' see why
Queen. Vic., having' faithfully “ mourned for
a year and a day,” and having finally set up
an olega r nt monument to fh6 tfr£ftYory of the
lamented Albert,,hasn’t n’ow the sam'a tflgbH
as any oilier.,woman to launch out and be a
“•gay vidder.”- One thing co’rtainy lunVey
lor—that love lbrives_on opposition ; ami’if
tb6 papers keep on blackguarding Leopold,
they will be sure to bring about a match—
in which cvfibt we wish oivr old friends much
happiness.
Well, They EfWi"t Have It!
There, are,many men who want the Union
as it was and the Constitution us it is. Well,
they can’t have it.— Vice-J'rcsidcht Jlambn.
The tone of the Vice President (says the
Journal to/ Commerce,) is dictatorial — much
like that assumed by his party. The Repub
licans elected their President by a minority
vote, and obtained power, through the pro
visions of tho system of government, by the
vole of fur less -than half the people. But,
having power they assume a high hand, ufif
alone in tho treatment of individual citizens,
but ii> declaring, what the future of the
country shall he* - If we arc not to have the
Union as it was and tho Constitution as it is,
what are we fighting fur? On what princi
ple shall we justify tho war? Tho seces
sionists have then been successful, and the
Union is destroyed past remedy? If these,
radicals are to be believed the war is now a
free fight for supremacy. Not a war for the
Union, but a war for a new government, in
which Abolitionists are to rule, without any
rotation"in office. Is this so? We respect
fully dissent. “It is disloyal to dissent.”—
.Very well, wo still' dissent. ‘ “ It is copper
head' to dissent.” Bb’ i't so, we* still dissent.
Names do not trouble us.- Besides, we charge
that every man who refu’ses- to’ sustain 1 the
old Union, who throws obstacles in the way
of its restoration to power and peace’, is
equally with the Southern rebels the enemy
of his country. '

[ Applnuse.] Now we are engaged in agreat

nation so conceived and so dedicated, can
long endure. We are met on a general bal
tte-deld nf that war: we.are met to dedicate
■a portion of it ns the limit resting pl!n:ti' nf
ihuse who- licit! gave tlli-ir lii'b's thiit that na
tion might life. It is (iltogother lilting, and
proper that we should do this, hut in n longer
dense we cannot dedicate, we cannot conse

power to add or to detract. [Applause.]
The w orld will little note, nor do ig remem

got what they did here.' [Applause.] Ills
for us, the living, rather to he dedicated liens
to the unfinished work that they-have thus
St) IK djly carried on. [Applause.] It is rather
for-as liore to be dedicated to the grout, task
'meuniug before us, that ‘from thesfc honored
dead we take increased devotion to thatcause
for which they 'horn gave Clio last'full
ure of devotion. That We here highly resolve
that tf/o.jc dcinl shall ifot Imvsdicd in vain.
[Applause.] That’the nation shall, under
