JAMES P. BARR
ALLEURENY COUNTY
/05 - Last week was a week of bat
tles, and thousands upon thousands
are now sleeping the soldier's death
or suffering pain and anguish from
wounds. The rebels, taking advan
tage of the withdrawal of McClellan's
forces from before Richmond, and be
fore our new levies should be brbught
into the field, made a desperate blow
to annihilate our forces and achieve
victory for themselves. Their de
signs, from ail accounts, seemed to
be to destroy our army now in the
field, make their way to Maryland
and capture Washington. Although
successful partially in battle, they
are nut Set in Maryland, will not cap
ture Washington, and, probably, by
this time, have found that they are
further from "independence" then ev
er. Events are now transpiring so
rapidly that every day puts a differ
ent face upon the aspect of affairs,
and, although we now give what has
transpired, we know not what may
be tho situation when we go to press.
Prosiidence has our enure° in bands,
and will no doubt direct our able gen.
orals and brave soldiers to success in
the end. if not his will be done.
fisee- The Tribune office, at New
York, was closed up, on Moriday, for
publishing a canard that McClellan
bad been detected in acting•the Trai
tor. Although Greely has written
and printed more treasonable matter
than all the other papers in New York
together, yet, if the Courts are still
open in that city, and we believe they
are, we contend that he should have
been hauled up before them, and not
served in the style in which Demo.
crate are.servcd now-tt:claya. We pro
teat, humbly though it is, against the
despotic aid arbitrary proceedings of
those in power, no Mater whether it
strikes us or Oar enemies. The laws
areand can he enforced in the _North,
hence there is no need for martial
law.
i James 11. Campbell has been.
renominated by the abolitiOnists of
Schuylkill county, as their candidate
for Congress. The nomination will
be, if it has not already been, acquies.
ced. in
. by Lebanon county. They
admit that their candidate will be
badly beaten in Schuylkill, but will
make this county the battle ground
and hope fora majority large enough
to overcome the Democratic majority
in that county. Will the Republicans
of ,this county, the friends of lion.
John . W. Killinger, our present mem
ber, kiss the hand that smote them,
Otvihe 31st of May last, the Miners'
Journal, the organ of Mr. Campbell,
published "John W. Kil linger, of Penn ,
sylvania," in prominent type, as fol
lows :
BLACKLIST.
Henry L. Dawes, of Mamobusetts.
Alexander S. Diven, of New York.
Charles Delano, of Massachusetts.
William McKee Dunn, of Indiana.
Bradley F. Granger, of Michigan.
Valentine B. Horton, of Ohio.
William Kellogg, of Ininois.

Carey A. ?rumble, of Ohio.
This was because he voted against
the emancipation bill, and of course
against Campbell. Did Mr. Killinger
in that vote represent his constitu:
ents, and if so, how can they now
support Campbell ? How can Mr.
liillinger and his personal and politi:
eel friends support a man who suffer
ed his organ to put such a personal
indignity upon him ?
II 4N.. The Republicans of Philadel
phia have re-nominated the Ron. Al
cxauder Henry, for Mayo•, Win. B.
Mann, for District Attorney, and a
full partizan ticket. This is the par
ty so intensely devoted to the Union
that they "temporarily abandon their
organizations !" There is not a coun
ty or township in the state, where
they-have) the least chance of obtain
ing'i Corporal's guard to sustain their
tickets, but "true to their selfish in.
etincts .they nominate tickets on
their own hook." They will be "wip
ed : oat," through the ballot-boxes, for
their pains.
mg. It is said that there is some
trouble in one or two of the districts
of Sclinylkill county, relative to the
enrollments. Marshal ifillward has
asked for,a regiment of volunteers to
enforiellielaws. The miners refuse
to be en:foiled nnd drive off the> Dep
uties.
NUT FOR THE AtOLITIONISTS.
Senator trowning, of Illinois, re
celhtly addressed a large meeting of
,his fella* citizens, at Quincy, in his
State, when he gave utterance to the
following honest sentiments Pt regard
to the objects of the war, which we
trust will open the eyes of moderate
and patriot:c Republicans to the dan
gers into which their press and par
ty leaders would plunge them, and
indUce them to co•operate with the
Democrats in arresting the progress
of an organization whose further suc
cess threatens not only the subver
sion of the Union, but the establish
ment of despotism upon its ruins.—
Mr. Browning is a Republican, is the
head of the Republican party in
Illi
nois, and the bosom triend of Presi
dent Lincoln .
"Mr Browning explained his position
upon the confiscation question, and did ft
to the satisfaction and approval of a ;rag
majority of those who heard ,him. He
said that Congress had no power to con,
fiscate property, and that confiscation
was a humbug. If the power of confisca
tion existed anywhere, it existed in the
President by virtue of his office, as Corn
mander-in.chief of our armies.
The Constitution conferred no such
power upon Congress, and he bad sworn'
to support the Constitution. He could
not support the confiscation•_bill and the
Constitution too, so he supported the Con
stitution and opposed confiscation. Up
on this question he stood with the Pres
ident. The same was true upon the
question of arming the negroes. He was
opposed to arming them and so was
the President. He was for the Union as
it was, and the Constitution as it is. [ln
the utterance of these truly patriotic sen
timents, Mr. Browning was loudly and
enthusiastically applauded.
Mr. Browning denounced the abolition
ists in unmeasured terms. He denoun
ced the leaders in the United States Sen
ate—naming Summer, Wilson' and oth
ers—as disloyal—traitors to the coun
try—wild, deluded, crazy fanatics, who
were bent upon the destrection of the
government. He had no sympathy with
them, and had refused to co operate with
hem, and should continue to do so. He
had marked out Itts course, and t•hould
pursue it. It mattered not that some of
his personal and political friends had turn
ed against him—he was for the Union as
it was and the Constitution as it is, and
upon that platform he intented to stand,
though every dollar's .worth ' of property
that he owned in the world should be
sacrificed or destroyed.
He was inteTrupted by an Abolitionist
present, who charged him with having
gone over to the Democrats. Mr. Brown.
ing respnded that he was ready to go
over to the Democrats. or to any other
party, or to act with patriotic men, to
whatever party they might belong, who
were for the Union and the Constitution.
Mr. B. then asked the brazen faced Abol
itionist if he would be willing to receive
the South back in the Union, with all
their constitutional rights, if the rebels
would lay down their. arms 'to-morrow 1
As might be expected, the crazy fanatic
replied no—he would not l —he. would
not be willing to receive the South back
unless they would abolish slavery. Mr.
Browning, said that was just as he supp--
posed— these Abolitionists were not in
favor of the Union and the Constitution,
but would sacrifice both, and bring the
liberties of the people beyond the hopes
of resurrection, if they could but accom
plish their wicked and traitorous designs."
- Another Abolition 'fanatic wanted to
know of Nit.. E. whether he would vote
in favor of emancipating the slaves if he
believed such emancipation would put an
end to, the war.—"No, sir," said Mr. 8.,
"I would not give such a vote,. because I
have sworn to support the Constitution;
under the Constitution we have no pow
er to emancipate :slaVes." At this point
the Rev. Mr. Ring, who. was in the audi
ence, was heard to say, Mr. Browning
, -is a traitor to his country. " Mr. B.
did not probably hear the remark, as he,
did not condescend to notice.it.
Mr. 8.,. commented at considerable
length upon the course ofcertain Abolition
journals, that have devoted much of their
time and space to denunciations of our
Generals in the field, and so little of their
space to denunciations of the rebel com
manders. Ilesfid not, believe them to be
loyal, and if they should take an oath to
support the. Government he would not
believe their oath.
In regard to the war, he was for its
vigorous,•energetic and successful prose
cution. Be told his Republican friends
that they could not hope to bring the war
to a successful issue if they made it a war
for the negro. The Democrats, he said
would not co-operate in a war of that sort.
But confine it to its legitimate, rightfill ob
ject—let it continue to be, as it has been
from the beginning, a war for the Consti
tution and the Union, and the Democrats
would work and fight shoulder to shoul
der with the Republicans—indeed, all the
patriots of whatever party, would work
together."
The Draft Postponed in Pennsylvania.
Orders have been issued by Govenor Cur
tin, postponing. the draft until. the 15th of
September, until which time recruits will
be received for regiments now in the field.
e- The abolitionists contend that
"slavery is a source of strength to the
secessionists," and hence want the
niggers armed,—want slavery abol•
ished,—want emancipation declared,
and all that. They wanted the same
things from the beginning of the re
bellion, in fact their attempts to ac.
cotnplish these things are the main
causes of the rebellion. But look at
the tack they have made andthe in
consistency. Now "slavery is the
strength of the rebellion," but, when
the rebellion commenced slavery was,
according to the abolitionists, the
"weak point" of the South,---it was
the magazine whielt only needed to
be fired to blow to pieces the whole
fabric - of secessia. Although .they
aim at the some points now, they
have- entirely turned rou , tid :in -the
short' Space - of 18 months, in their
arguments.

DELIS FOR EUROPE
I CLIFTON HOUSE, NIAGARA FALLS,
• August 26th j 1882,
The gentleman supposed to be Win,
L. Yancey, who arrived here the oth
er day, in a very dirty disg uise, was
not Mr. Yancey, but the r edoubtable
George N. Saunders, who is supposed
to be a bearer of det-patchesfrOm the
Rebel Government' to Europe.
Mr. Saunders sailed in the steam
ship Jara, which sailed on Saturday
from Quebec, for Liverpool. He left
Richmond on the 17,th instant.
Iln noticing the escape of the Con
! ederate agent, the Montreal Gazette
says it was rumored in Canada that
"the object of biS mission is to take
an offer Of the Confederate Govern
ment to. Britain and France of abso
lute free : trade , with the S9thern
States, if they will pay the Confede
rate war debt. It is believed at Rich

custom houses, would be worth more
to the two nations mentioned than
the price - they' are asked to pay for
NO PARTY.—In the Philadelphia"
Republican Convention last week, a
resolutiOn was adopted, for the, ap
pointment of a committee to "wait
upon the President, of the United
States and request the removal of any
Federal appointee in this city who
shall not express, in writing, his will
ingness to personally and officitilly
support the.nominees of the Conven
tion." That's no party on the Aboli
tion high fallutin principle.
Afir The reports last week that Geo.
McClellan had been appointed to the
command of the Army of Virginia
were untrue. Gen. Medlellan coin
mands that portion of the Army of
the Potomac that has not been sent
forward to Gen. Pope's command.
Gen. - Pope cc - MITI - Muds the Army -of
Virginia and all the force tempera.

Friday afternoon, near Richmcind,
Kentucky, in which; our troops were.
obliged to fall back to - Lexington,--
Our loss is about2oo l>illed and wound

the latioring men of the North "Mud

chusetts, calls the rail splitter of, Illi

Itet Mr. Ingersoll was released on
Monday by order of Secretary Stan
ton. There being no cause for his
arrest, except arbitrary power,' there
could he no other reason .for his de
tention. Our liberty seems to he in the

and making soldiers out of them, than

It seems thrit on the approach of
the enemy to Manassas the fore() di
vided, three regiments with cavalry
and artillery filing off toward Cen
treville, via Sudley's Ford. On the
old battle ground they were met by
the New Jersey brigade, consisting of
the let, 2d, 3d and 4th New Jersey
infantry, under Brigadier General
Taylor, where the severest tight of
the day occurred. General Taylor
was severely but not dangerously
wounded in the lower part of one leg,
and now lies at the Mansion Hospital,
Alexandria. Both sides suffered very
heavily, but as the enemy held the
field, it is impossible to ascertain the
nature or extent of the casualities.
At the time of the Rebel advance,
nine companies of the 12th Pennsyl
vania Cavalry (new troops) were en
tered on the Manassas Gap railroad,
near White Plain—the enemy having
approached through Thoroughfare
Gap—but were defeated and scatter
ed after a short skirmish. A num
ber of them were taken prisoners.—
The prevalent opinion seems to be
that they did but little fighting, as
the remnants of the regiment in Al
exandria. this morning have very in.
eohereA notions of the affair.
On taking posseSsion of Manassas
Junction, the Rebels captured seven
trains loaded with provisions,,arnmu
nition, dto , and ten locomotives, all of
which were destroyed. Of the 84
men of the 105th Pennsylvania on
the ground, nearly all Were killed,
wounded or taken prisoners, as only
three are known to have escaped.—
Captain Craig, Company B, and Cor
poral Corcoran,-of Company B, are
known to be wounded and prisoners.
Contrabands just in from Manassas
state that they were not generally
molested; that the nine captured
guns are mounted in the crumbling
embrasures of the old forts at Manas
sas, apparently ready for action, but
that preparations are made for de.
parture, and that there seems to be"
an intention to destroy everything,
but the houses have not yet been
burned.
