Nommen, Der We have been requested to state by a number of the Democrats Of Heidleberg township, that the re• port circulated that "the Democrats of that township will only vote for 'their men on the Union ticket, and scratch the Republicans, Is FALSE.— 'They are honest and will vote the whole Union ticket and nothing but the whole Union ticket." The false hood•alluded to above seems to be the principal electioneering scheme of the opposition. %Y hear of it every day, and they seem to be using it over the whole eounty. - The desperation to Which they are driven is shown in this that the principal argument they use in favor of their partizan ticket is a glaring falsehood. - sW Below we give the names or the Union Republican County Com mittee. It will be seen that, like the Democrats, they preserve theirorgan , ization, they think there is no time now for political contention, and as the Democratic party is giving effec tual aid to the National Administra tion in its efforts to suppress the re• bellion, they have recognized them as political friends, and united with them in forming a Union ticket.

We have the most cheering ac counts from every section of our coun ty relative ,to the popularity of the Union movement and the prospects for the election of the Union ticket by a very large majority. Almost ev• ery person not directly influenced by the Clique is determined to lay aside all partizanship this fall, and go heart and hand for the Union. /ter The Democrats of Lancaster Jeoauty, last week, at their county tonvontion, resalv , ed that in the prei- ent emergency of the country it would be inadvisi ble to create party strife, and therefore they would not, nomi nate a county ticket. On Monday last, in pursuance of a call signed by many leading Republicans who are sincere in their desire to see party distinctions wiped out, in conjunction with prominent Democrats, a Union Mass Meeting was held in Lancaster, and a Union ticket was nominated in opposition to the straight Republican ticket. The appearances are that the Union ticket will be elected- (Kr Beauregard has promised his army that they will either be led to battle before the Ist of October, or led home. - 010 . Wm.

SI. - - When the convention tnet in the afternoon, and before the names - Of any candidates were presented to the conVention,.or atiy iath.pr busi ness of importance was transacted, one of the delegates_ offered the following -reseiutions Resolved, That this convention issues a cell to the Democratic party to unite with us in the for, motion of a Union ticket, to be coinposed of Re publicans and Demoerats, to be submitted to the people for their suffrages et the coming election, upon a platform supporting the. 'administration in the prosecution of the present war, mint:kin its authority and preserve the Union of the States, and that this convention issues a call to its 'con stituents to elect delegates on Saturday next, at the usual places of 'bolding delegate Meetings, to represent them in a COnVention to be held' on Monday next, in the borough of Lebanon, for the purpose of nominating a ticket, as suggested by the address just read... • Resolved. That the convention adjourn sine die. Both these resolutions were adop ted, without a dissenting voice,, and the President; by virtue thereof, de clared the coavention,adj9urned eine die. After the convention had ad, journed Sine die, then .eight dele tittles Withdreir.' It was their duty to do so, because by that adjourn ment the convention became dis solved, and all , the .power which it originally had, relapsed to the pet*- * who had delegated There. after they were no lanyer a come& - EiOit' of the People i - bue iimply an a - genibly of gentlemen,, VAC could bind themselves, bat no one else by their action.

The delegates, therefore, who retired froth the convention and united in forming the Union ticket, obeyed the spirit and letter of the resolution, which the, former con vention adopted. They conse. quently did-Dot secede from thecon vention, or arbitrarily break of their connexion with it, but left it in pur suance of an irrevocable resolve adop ted by that body, - and the Union ticket, which was *subsequently nominated, is the 'regular party ticket, and is entitled to be upport nda3 such, 1 - vhi le the for Mer ticket is entirely spurious, beCause those who formed it had no longer authority to act for the party wheh they made the nominations.. Is not this man ifest. from the facts hereinbefore stated. Car Since the sine ;lie adjournment of the Republican convention, the en -1 hiasiasm of the people for the Union movement and the Union ticket, has made the Court House . Clique look as though they had lost their motla.er.. m. The Court House Clique takes delig,lat in calling their ticket a "Peo ple's Union ticket." .They should re member that calling the tail of. a calf its fifth leg, don't make it so by a long shot.
