" UNION LEAGUES
Know tiotl.ingism secured in strength
by practicing the most wicked deception,
treachery and falsehood- drawing tho
thoughtless into its embrace, whose self
pride forbid their renunciation of its wick
ed aiid anti-republican dogmas until after
I lio harm was done. 1 1 came upon the
country stealthily, likoa thief in the night,
and thousands of young men wereensnai
ted by its wiles without n moment's
thought' They had no vaniing and this
was '.littir omy eju-unr.
We now tell them that another Order
has been instituted and is spreading thro'
out the country under the specious name
of Lnion Leagues, of vs-itly more dangorous
purposes than worn ever contemplated by
Knownothingism, Under the name of
"t 'iiivn"- which is used as a cloak they
lope to entrap the unwary. But let no
inun permit himself to be deceived. Let
n man hereafter say that he was entrap
I I lhat he was not warned in time.
i'hure is but one way that a loyal and
; uiriotic citizen can support his country- -(..-.:
be a Union man and that is, by yield
ing a cordial and undivided support to the
I'unstitution and all laws made iu pursu
ance thereof, at all times and under all
. ireumstances. To enable him to do this
neither secret signs, badgcf , passwords or
places of meeting, nor extra-judicial oaths
"r pledges are required. Those who desire
to do what is right, and that only, do not
desire to hide their works from the pub
lic eye; they are willing that the whole
world should know what they are doing.
It is only those whose aims are evil that
fear tho public scrutiny.
The man, therefore, who wants to be a
friend of tho Union, who wants to serve
his country now in the midst of her sore
trial, has only (, unite himself with
the Democratic Party that good old Na
tional party of .Jeflerson and Jackson, and
which has always maintained the honor
and glory of our national banner - buckle
on the armor cf the Constitution as our
fathers made it, and proclaim it from tbe
housetops, that, though slander may . '

Soldiers of the Army of tho Potomac!
Hiiything were wanting to breed demoral
ization in tho army, we think this prac
tice will surely supply it. It cud sot pos
sibly be otherwise, for all mon kaow that
these pretended meetings do not express
the sentiments of the army. In proof of
this, wo take the liberty of girhg the fol
lowing extract from a letter from a sol
dier, now in the service, ond who is well
known in this community. Wo shall
withhold his name insuring tho public
that he was one of the most ardent sup
porters cf the Republican party in 1800 :
"There is a man living hero just on our
picket line, who siiys ho was a Union man
until the President issued his last procla
mation. He now declores he is a secush !
This is the way the proclamatiun puis the
rebellion down. It has confirmed the
South in their enmity to the fnion, and
divided tho North in their enmity to se
cession. While our Governiuer.t contin
ues to rutih blindly on to tho destructive
rocks of Abolition, we may expect to see
the South triumphant. Tho poor, pitia
ble, contemptible attempt of President
Lincoln to abolish slavery by Proclama
tion will find its result in an establish,
tnent of the Southern Confederacy.
"It is imposnible for us to get uny news
here, but what the Government luckie
chose to let us have. The New York 7Vi
Lune comes here semi -occasionally, and
then they charge ten cents for it. I don't
think enough of the Abolition organ to
spend my money for it. I ho Cleat hela
lit-pullican finds out our camp once in a
while, and it is cheering to read so fatuiU
tar a tiaper. Our officers call it a seres b
paper; but it speaks my views pretty cor
rect on the policy of our Government."

The objects to be accomplished by these
Leagues are perhaps two-fold. If any
thing like as successful iu gaining prose
lytes as knownothingitm whs, it will be a
u!u;.ole adjunct to tho Abolition party
next fall. But aside from this, it is to
have a military character, its members to
be .provided with armt, and ready at a mo
ment's call to light the torch of citil war
iu every pari of the country. That we
do not misrepresent its object is proven
by the admission of tho ilarrisburg Tele

The loss of the rebels in tho action, as
near as could bo ascertained, was two
hundred and ten killed ond five hundred
wounded. There is but little doubt that
tho rebel loss is much creater than this. as
during tho skirmishing early in the day
our troops held a decided advantage over
tho rebels, and the latter carried back
their killed and wounded.
None of our officers wero killed, a!
thoush ouito a number were wounded.
Our loss in noncommissioned otiicers and
enlisted men foots up as follows: Killed,
100 ; wounded, 210; taken prisoners by
Gen. Forrest, about 1.000.
During Thursday night tho rebels res
treated. Our forces left to us after the
battle wero not sufficient here to follow
thorn up. If this could have been done,
this dearly won rebel sueeea might have
been turned into a decided Union vie
