WEDNESDAY, JULY 9, 1862 VSB.Y. lINPoPuLAR..-T hz address of the Democratic members, the speech es, -of Biddle, Cox, Richardson, the Union meeting of Nevi York, the .'resotations of the Harrisburg Demo cratic Convention of last week, and ..simular matter is very unpopular with -19. year disunionists and abolitionists generally. We cannot pick up one of their papers without ending it lam ming one or the other of these do6u -men t 4 with might and main. If they Were to publish one of the documents named they would hare more union ism in their columns than they have had in a sis-months. The Lebanon Courier is Still encouraging the Southern rebels by making them believe that there are many persons in the Northern States sympathizing with them. The North ern people, in 'supporting such lying concerns, are keeping warm the snake that will sting them to death at the first opportunity. If the rebels be lieved that they bad no sympathy in the North' they would not resist as desperately as they do. But fromthe abolition Tribune down to the Courier they are weekly told that certain peo• pie are in full sympathy with them and secessionism, and then, when they see these same "secession Etym. pathisers" carrying everything be fore them at elections, they take it "for granted that more than half the people of the North are sympathizing with them. They do not know that these malicious disunion sheets are telling them a parcel of lies. WHY? Why; instead of keeping the con traband in idleness in Washington, Fortress Monroe, and hundreds of other„places,'or spreading them over the North as servants, &c., are they not set to do the work of digging ditches, throwing up embankments, c., which is wearing out the life of our seldiers? • Why, instead of enlisting them as soldiers and sailers, are they not made to work on fortifications, &c., thus easing our unacclirnated Northern soldiers of Much work ? There is a great deal of labor that they could relieve our soldiers of, but no, they are too precious for that.— if,they had been -set to work digging ditches in tho swamps of the Chicka• hominy there would not be so many rheumatic and sick soldiers among the 93d Regiment. While the gov. ernment is feeding and clothing them it, is entitled to their labor, and should make them work, while the whites are ready and willing to do the fight ing Ibr the .dduertiaer. The "gentleman from Maryland" who NVlts in communion with the ed itor of the courier last week, about the ADVERTISER, NVOUId do well to study "Union" himself a little. I under stand that - he himself has been ."sup , ' tressed" for his "secessionism." Folks that see nothing honest or loyal in any one but those who - act' and think like themselves, and who are lAticinstantly setting tie rrioSt eiiiuS . eztamplesinsociallife, ehoold be" aiittle more careful to extract beam out of their own eyes before *they denounce the mote in the eyes of their neighbors.

Thank Heaven, his time - is almost out, and thus ono less of the fellows that bave plundered the Treasury of more money in one year under the present administration than the whole yearly _ expenditures of Mr. Buchanan's ad ,tninistration, will be in the next Con gress.

MANIA , SHELDON GOODRICH, i Ili 0 j ef t year of Mange, .111r1 Goodrich was Depu. trSecretary of the Commonwealth under Gov. Bigler, and ;was well known tip "I never had confidence in Mc— Clellan," "I always believed that be was a secession sympathizer," were the ~ x pressions freely used in the sty. ~.!s of our borough last week, when it was supposed that he had sustained a terrible defeat before Richmond. To quote the words of the Courier, "it could be seen on the aces" of the disithionists that they gloried in the overthrow of the noble commander of our armies, and when the true reports came they looked quite "solemn" in their disappoint ment. And yet these men put them selves forward aspatriots! Notwith standing all the rascaliti es of the pres ent administration, Democrats have so far hardly breathed a word 'against Abe Lincoln, because they believe the cause of the Union his cause as well as theirs. Rather than throw a word in the way to interfere with the suc cess of putting down the rebellion, they have preferred holding their peace. How different the action of the Abolitionists. They have 'cbaffed for months under the generalship of McClellan, aye , prayed for his re moval, and now gloried in the, prem. ature reports of his defeat. ._,Tbank' God, he is still in a condition to as suine the offensive, but not by the. good Wishes of the Abolitionists.— Discretion and pat:ilotism has held back the Democrats from criticising the acts of Abe Lincoln, and we sin. cerely trust that hereafter it will also stay the tongues of the Abolitionists in their assaults on McClellan. We do not expect it however. They know - well enough that if they can take away the confidence of the soldiers from their commander, that our army will be paralited, and as their object is either to abolish slavery or destroy the Union, and as there is a prospect of failing in the former; we doubt not but they will persevere in the latter. 11u. EDITOR :—The abolitionists, to weaken the force of the assertion that the negroes would come North in case of emancipation, assert that the climate is not warm enough for them. I feel pretty certain that we have bad heat enough in South Lebanon, dur ing the past week, to accommodate any Congo negro that ever basked in the sun of Ethiopia. If some of your town abolitionists don't believe it let them come and try it in our hay fields. We can make it palpable to them. I don't know how the heat was in other townshipS, but can safe ly speak of its sufficiency in SOUTH LEBANON. gi , S7 When abolitionistsjnik- to you of the propriety of emancipating the slates of th&South, ask them if they are in favor of spreading them over the North. If they say : that "Denmark 'will take them," tell thernto direct Den mark to come right away and take the negroes we have in the North. When they talk of colonization, ask them how we are to paTthe expenses. When they talkof paying the slave owners for their slaves, tell them to use their own money for that ,pur pose, instead of compelling other pee ple, by action of governreent, to as sist., Tell them , ou have .otheruse, then buying negroes, for your spare change. ' ser The President,-at the request of the Governors of the States, has issued a Proclamation calling for 300„. 000 more men, to speedily crush the rebellion. Pennsylvania will not fail in her duty in this 6mergeney. MR.

EDITOR':—That Democrat" writing for the Courier is decidedly a smart-ehap,over the left. The late 'RepUblican or People's Party, now Abolition; should make himtheir can didate for the Legislature, their usual disposition. - of such premature geni• uses. Ile knows nothing of history. or polities, past or present, or lies with malice aforethought.

Ilichardsonof the personal friend :.and right. hand man of the - late Senator 'Doug h:l.S, in the last ADVERTISERi he. will find that his rehash of stuff from rer ney's' Press is all—stuff. T.IEFe says he "cannot follow the ADVERTISER without disgrace." If he can ' follow without compunction the corruptions of the present administration.; the 19- year disunionists of the,,Nortff; men who declare the Constitution a' cove nant with , hell; men who are afraid. to declare their unreservedullegianee to the Constitution and the laws; men who are afraid to say a word about--the, raseelities of their party friends, he Lis welcome to 'his ''choice, The Democratic party is well rid of such callous adherents.

It was a pour ing-out of the people without prece dent. The resolutions are thoroughly Union, Constitutional and Democrat-, ic. The meeting was. addressed by a number of prominent. Unioniste, 7 --- among them "an old man front Ken tucky, by the name of Wieldiffe." We shall publish his remarks next week. The Abolitionists attempted to break up themeeting , by spreading incen diary posters - cVkr„ . 'the 'city, which, howeier, - :onlY added to the success of -the gathering. The 'voice of New 'YOrkla loyarin thunder.tones. There is no conditional Unionism there. The people are for the Constitution as it is and for the Union as it.was— the same platform on 'which the Penn sylvania Democracy stand, as May - be seen, if any further evidence had been necessary, by the resolutions of our' State Convention last Week. Ihm.. Some one who has probably a superabundance of leisure has been after the "negro:" He loves him so dearly that he has counted the nut• ber of times the - word occurs in the ADVERTISER. A person,withso much leisure on hand should enlist in the army, thereby obtaining, Something to do. The army now has vacant places for gentlemen of leisure. SEir A skirmish took place a day or two ago between a body of army and rebels in which the latter' were defeated and lost several batte. ries and 1,000 prisoners. It is said that the rebels are not at all anxious to fight just now. • Dar We publish in other columns the sickening details of the terrible. battles. fought by our army before Richmond. It is useless to deal in criminations now, but this we may say:—lt is our belief that had any Other General than McCfellan been in command we this day would have no "army of the Potomac." The evil is now seen, and the army, it is said, is being speedily-reinforced. We hope so. Had Gen: MeClellans's requisi tions and representations, his plans and reasons, been fully.recognized in the outset, 'he would have been in Richmond a month or. two months ago. Our disorganizing Abolition factions are responsible for our press ent disappointments, as they are foy theresults of their original "Onward to Richmond" movement.. 'Much .hlood and treasure have thus been sacrirtied - to time cfaunors and - thepo,, litical intrigues of this radical "eman cipation or separation" party. For the Adrertiiei For iite AdicrEiser: MR.

EMBALAIING THE DEAD The, embalmment of those of our brave volunteers who have died in the service of their country has lately been a source of great consolation to sorrowing relatives, and is extensively practiced. Those who are engaged in the pursuit grade their charges ac cording to the rank of the deceased, Varying from $l5 to $lOO. The body of a private soldier is embalmed for $l5 and sent home in a handsome cof fin for $l5 more. The process is sim ply to make an incision in any one of the arteries and to inject'therein a li-.
