The new class that has entered, wo judge to bo, in re spect of numbers and character, one of the most promising wo have scon fur several years. We understand arrangements are completed for opening a Commercial-Depart ment under the care of Prof. Hugh A. Cur ran, A. M., an Alumni of the College of the class of 1860,-- Prof. C. has had several years experience in teaching, and a part of the time in connection with a Com mercial School. Ho is now visiting the School of Poughkeepsie, in order to avail himself of whatever is peculiar and valuable in the method and the results of the latest czpciimentß of there who have given such ce lebrity to that Institution. Prof. C., will be aided by competent assistants, and a course of Lectures on Commercial Law will be di .livered by Judge Gbaiiah:, the professor of Law in the College. - For M’Cl ellAn. —General Robert Ander *Son, of x'ort, Sumter celebrity, is a warm and enthusiastic friend of General M’Clellan for the Presidency.

Democrats ! be up and doing, ami make every vote you can for the County Ticket. Adam *l, Glossurknxer, our candidate for Congress, is a citizen of York, ami a gentle man of unimpeachable character. An prin cipal editor of the I’lnladelphia Age, ho ex hibits those sterling traits of character so necessary for n public man to possess, and which should commend him to the confidence and secure him the support of every honest, Tninn-loving voter. A self-made man, he knows the feelings and sentiments of tlio peo ple of this District, and will represent all (•lasses of men faithfully in Congress, That lie will he elected by an overwhelming ma j irity, no one can doubt, apd that lie will he true to his fjtcmD, to his District,.and his whole country,’ wo have assurances from his former life. Frank, Inmost, hosphnhlo and confiding, he is just such a man as the peo ple of Cumberland, Furry and York desire in Congress. Dr. John D, Bowman is onr candidate f r Asa member of the House last winter, ho was attentive to his duties, ami ' his c mrsi' gave g'-i.oral satisfaction to his constituents. 1 {ones*, capable and worth*, he was respected by his fellow-members of both panics. In the mutter which most deeply concerned the poopln of the border— dun-,ages for losses sustained b v rebel hivu- Mon* —Dr. Ihiw.M.w was industrious and ear nest, ‘■paring no ekm-t p> have proper remu neration imi'l n to the ‘■•ul’Wcr®. lie lias been tried, and has not been found wanting. Lot liim therefore la* returned, with the interest of our people ji-rain committed to his hands. Our candidate fir sheriff is that hard fist ed and estimable man. John Jacobs, of old Silver *Spnn£. Mr. J., is a gentleman of sound judgment, who, a few years acted as Deputy Sheriff of this county. Ho in prompt and reliable ii\t\U things, and in eve ry respect is admirably Qualified for the po sition for which lie has been named. Henry Kahns, of Monroe, is our nominee for (he responsible position of County Com missioner, and a better man could not have been named, lid is an intelligent, hard working mechanic, and a careful, sterling man, who feeD the necessity for the utmost economy in all public expenditures. The people will nut forget, r.t tho polls, one so well fitted for tlic place. Our candidates for Director of thO Poor, ami Auditor, William Wherry and John A. Hkheri.ir, are both unexceptionable men, both as regards integrity and capacity. Such is die Democratic ticket. We can point to it wUb pride, because it is without spot, or blemish. And it will succeed, wc have no doubt, by the largest majority cverj cast lor a ticket iu this county. 'That it is preferable to the Abolition negro-erpialii v . ticket in many ways, will be admitted hy all j fair-mind.-d men; but espeeiallj’ in the mat-: tor of platform on which each stands. The! Democratic ticket is phalirmi to peace and a j whole Union —t he earliest possible peace with 1 a view to the earliest jmx-lblo restoration of the Union. The Abolition ticket is to an endorsement of Aid. the ACTS AND MUASURE? of Ahkviiam Lincoln. (So said the Convention which nominated it.) Pledged to continued drafts, continued tax es, continued war. devastation and bloodshed, until the “ uhcinilonmf’ni of :lamr>/ n is se cured I In other words, until tho Southern negro is, " freed onstarved," at the expense of tho best white blood of the North. Citizens of (luubnrland county, such are tho party pledges with which the different candidates come to you. can sundv have no difficulty in selecting that ticket the success of which is best calculated to Bdbserve your interest and the country’s. Sewivg Machin-us —We are often surprised to niul so few Sewing Machines in use, in our section of the country. In the largo cities, every family has its Sowing Machine, anil they* would not be without one for ten times its cost. It is certainly the most useful and economical invention of the age, and wo ad vise our readers to hesitate no longer, hut seo to Retting one of those labor ami life sav iiiß Machines. There are a great many kinds of Sewing Machines, and wn have ta ken some pains to examine into their respec tive merits, and we have note to the conclu sion that tho Wheeler & Wilson, High P ro mium Sewing .Machine, is decidedly the best. These unequalled Machines are adapteil to every variety of sewing for family wear, from the lightest muslins to tho heaviest cloths IToy work equally well upon silk, linen woolen", and-cotton goods, with silk.-cntton or linen thread. They will seam, quilt Rather, Item, foil, cord.Jirald, hind, and per form every kind of sewing, making n beauti ful and perfect stitch, alike on both sides of tiie article served. The sewing wii] never unravel or wash nut. The Wheeler & Wilson Sewing Machines are so simple that a child can work them with ease. Printed instructions are sent with every Machine, so that any one can operate them without any trouble or difficul ty. Every Machine is warranted, and the money returned if not entirely satisfactory. Over FJ’O/ Thousand of the celebrated Wheeler & Wilsun Sewing Machines are spld every year, and yet the demand is so great ttiat they can hardly ho supplied as' fast as ordered. Machines are carefully packed nod sent in good order to any portion of the aouu- try. We hope our readers will write at once to Wheeler & Wilson’s Agency, No. 704 Chest nut Street, Philadelphia, and get one of their Almanacs for IBGS, and specimens of work done by the Mao,bine, all of which they will send by mail’, free of charge, to any address. We should bo glad to see an Agency for the Wheeler & Wilson Sowing Machine estab lished in our locality. .Wo know them to he the heat, most simple and olioamest machine in us*. TtlE UEUi-mSGER SPEAKS-! Old granny Seward, tbo bclLririgor, is bn ; the stamp for hiscollonguoia crime, Lincoln. A week or so ago ho outdo a speech at Au burn, N. Y,, in which ho confessed that 11 old Are” would have a hf.rd road tq travel this fall. He attempted tc excuse the President ■fur Ins illegal arrests, lis violation of his oath and the Constitutioh,&c,, by the stale plea that every man.in JiuMe to commit errors.— For the purpose of raising a cheer, ho said in a loud voice, “ wC shall havo-no draft, because the army is being reinforced at the rate of five to ten thousand men per day by volunteers.” OF course the stay-at-home Leaguers were re joiced to hear this, and gavethreo long cheers. Hut, Seward was falsifying, und ho know i't t The'draft has been ordered.» It was posponed for-a few days, for the purpose of carrying cer tain election?, an I Seward Vied intentionally when ho said “ wo shall have no draft.”—■ Poor old man ! Once Seward was regarded a man of respectable ability, notwithstan ding he always preached up sedition end trea son, hut on the day he got intotho-LiNcoLN administration ho became dwarfed and con temptible in the eyes of men of sense. Ever since the the rel c'.lion broke out he has boon making a fool of himself— one day boasting of the power he can exercise by touching a bell on his right hand, and another on his left, and on a score of occasiona*prodioting that the rebellion could not last sixty days longer. He hud better remain in Washington, and not attempt to speak before the people, for they [ d mb believe a word he says, and regard him a knave. Lincoln ilisunionistg of tliiw town licM u meeting in the court-houso, on Thurs day evening of last work. It was a small af fair, ami as spiritle-ss As small. Flaming pos ters had been soattcro I over town, announ* ring that John U. Ivcnkle of Harrisburg, would brjprcscnt to address the mooting. The valiant “ Colonel,” however, was not about when the mooting which was proof that ids name imd boon used without his au thority. It was ahi ore ruse to get a crowd. The fact is, if report can ho believed, C donel Kcnkle is no admirer of the “groat incom petent,’ 7 nor is it probable ho will support him. B. Beatty, Far. was appointed to preside, and the ball opened. A large,fine looking negro was posted in the rear of the Presi dent's chair, for the purpose wo suppose, of convincing all that the negro-equality busi ness as recognized and ordered by the Union splitter, Lincoln, is to bo observedmn all oc ea-uons. The first speaker was our chubby neighbor, Mr. J amlss A. Dunbar, wiio“spread himself” nicely on thisoccasinn. Tie eulogized the negro soldiers to the skies, hut had not a word to say in behalf of white soldiers. lie spoke of “ old A he” as a “ statesman and hon rsf man," hut this was too much for the au dience, most of whom burst into a loud laugh. Xo wonder; the idea of calling that misera ble hulfoon and political trimmer, Lincoln*, a “statesman and honest man,” was enough to make sen-did 5 men laugh. In concluding his disj nntod, illogical and insipid harangue, Mr. 0. told his, hearers that he felt sure the Dein o 'rats would have two candidates in the field , f r “ and (hen," he added with em | phasis, “we will re-elect old Ann.” But, wc I can tell our verdant orator that ho is mista j ken. The Democrat.-, are for M’Clellan tu |*a man, and they intend to elect him too. ] The next speaker wai AV*. Johnson, who j is celebrated for delivering long, dull, windy {rigmaroles. Uo commenced his speech by giving a history of Aimm and Dvr, and con cluded it with the startling announcement that, in his opinion, (ho “ smutty joker” had conducted this war most admirably and de served a re-election! lie dropped a tear or two for the thousands of soldiers who had been killed and died from disease during the time that Gen. M’Ollllan commanded tile, army of the Potomac ; hut he did not tell the meeting that Grantluul lost, in foi'ir month?, nioic men than McClellan had in Ins whole army’, nor did he mention the fact that Grant is not as near Richmond now as McClellan was. . McClellan had Richmond in his pow er, and beyond all question would have taken it, had it not been for the perfidy, villainy and (reason of those two political- plotters, Lin-' coln ami Stanton. This is history. The AVw. d »iin Ross, Chaplain at the Gar rison, made the last speech. It was a most lame, libellous, and contemptible attempt to bolster up his Infidel master, who-pays him some i?I,GuU for doing nothing. We need not refer to his lies and his unchristian-like dec larations, for, poor man; he is working for his bread ami butler, and, in the eyes of some, is excusable. It is ft most humiliating spec tacle, however, too see these so-called minis ters of Christ mount the political rostrum, ami deliver windy speeches, abounding in fiisehoo.

The Negroes of Baltimore Present tAe “ Smutty Joker" with a Bibee—He Makes a SPF.ncn.~MMJ ADEiind the negroes have imd ‘milch billing and cooing of late; Every'two op three days deputations of" American citizens 'of African sccni” visit the "White House, oi-' tlmr to tender advice to the President, or to make him a present of some kind. Indeed, these “colored patriots," as Sumner calls them, occupy nearly all the spare hours of the President, and it is seldom a white map can secure even five minutes conversation with him. Even army officers, desiring to know his views, are crowded hack until a no. gro delegation has first neen heard. Negroes dine .with the President and his family al most daily, and Tcaily Mr. Lincoln not only preaches ncnjro equality, but lie practices what he preaches. A few days since the negroes of Baltimore presented old Abe with a Bible. The Wash ington correspondent of the Now York Tri bune writes thus concerning this most mo mentous affair; Washington, Sept. 7. 18G‘l This afternoon a committee of loyal colored people of Baltimore, formally presented to the President an imperial quarto Bible, splen didly hound, costing S5BO, as a token of thftir respect and gratitude to him lor his active part in the cause of emancipation. They say that since they have been incorporated into the American family and regarded as equals with other men, they have been true and 1 loyal, and now stand ready to defend the conn try, and that they are prepared tu be anped ami trained to protect ami defend the Star Spangled Banner, The President replied: "I can only say now, gentlemen, as I have often said before, it has always been a senti ment with mo that all mankind' should he free and equal. So fur as I have been, or so far ns, came within my sphere,! have always acted as I believed was right and just, and nave done all l could for the good of man kind.’ I have, in letters and documents sent forth from this office, expressed myself hotter than I cun now. In regard to the great hook, I have only'to say it is the best gift which God has given man. All the good from the Saviour of the world is communicated to us through this hook. But for this hook we could not know right from wrong. All those tilings dehrahle to man are contained in it. I reiuni you, gentlemen, my sincere thanks for this very elegant copy of the great work of God which you present." After making this speech to the “gentle men" composing the negro delegation, the whole party proceeded to dinner. Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln and “ Bon" and a, “ few invited guests" took seats promiscuously with the negroes, and old Abe cracked his jokes as usual. Now, this is all very well. Those who contend for negro equality .should put their professions into practice, mid this is w)mt Mr. Lincoln is doing. As to the Bible pre sented to the President, we doubt 'whether it will amount to much. Mr. Bit.linc, ‘tin* notorious Massachusetts Infidel, once said that "we {meaning the Abolition party,) nui.-t have un anti slavery God and an anti slavery Bilde, or wo will have none." Mr. Lincoln must have coincided in that opinion, for lie appointed Bimillnuamk to one of the more impirtant positions in his gift. The present Chaplain to Congress denies Christ altogether, n-nd is ub much of an Infidel a** .ever Paint: wr.-., hut yet A was Mr, n0.;,-'* iulluem-e that gave him his position. ITav, most two-thirds or more of the Abolitionists of the New Kngland Stales lire oither open Infidels or new school Unitarians, who deny the doctrine of the Trinity, and yet it is a hurt tout these men are iho lVc.-ii'l"*it s advi sors, and rccom* t he lion’s chare of the pa tronage and stealings dispensed hy “ the Go. vermnent/’ Old Aim, thciefore, if he is not a fun-blooded Infidel himself, is tho houn companion and frieni of Infidels. and the old adage is trde which says *‘n man can be judged hy tho chnipany ho keep-/'' Perhaps, then, (his Bible wbioli tho sable "loyalists of Baltimore” presented to Mr. Lincoln, is one of BnnL.-NOASfn’.s Bibles.— Perhaps it is an “ anti-slavery Bible” and endorsed by an “ anti-slavery God.” If it is. then it was a proper present to nialtd to Mr. Lincoln, and no doubt ho ’ will peruse it carefully. GENERAL BURNSIDE OUT FOR *• LITTLE Gen. Ci;rnsii>e, it is well known, is one of tho pets of the Administration, and a full blooded Abolitionist; lie is, however, a sol dier, and ho {eels for a brother soldier, and will not see him slandered hy paid minions and shoddy contractors.
