retreated to the line of the Potomac.
Sheridan is at Harper's Ferry, Aver

Stir A Republican Convention is to
meet soon at Buffalo to nominate
another ticket opposed to poor,
"honest old abe." We don't see the
tam of so many conventions and so,
tunny tickets. If they are tired of
abolitionism and Lincolnism, let them
be manly enough to go in at once for
the Chime nominees, That's - what
the dissatiellea Republicans of this
taßiltin are going to do, and their
Mends in other sections might do the
ammo. The upshot of the affair will
accompliah like results, while our
plan would accomplish them in a di
rect way, which is always preferable
to indirect ones.

'tax LEGIIBLATURE.—The State
Legislature have accomplished the
'object-for which they were specially
'convened. The Militia Bill, author-
It.ing a loan of thFee millions for the
Turposizi , of raising and equipping a
Reserve Volunteer corps of fifteen
Regiments for State defence, 'and em-
powering the Governor to order a
, draft when necessary, passed, both
braneheion Thursday, and is proba
bly by this time a law, The bill con
tains many objectionable 'features,
and although some of the Democratic
;S as and members voted for it,
itherahl so under protest against
- tome of its provisicns, Vhile others
voted square against 'it,"entering
their reasons therefor upon the jciar
pals. The following are briefly ~the
principal points of objection :—That
, the companies are not allowed to e
qedt their officers ; that the troops
can, be drafted out of the State into
. the national service, and that the
seizure of private property is Allow
ed.
The House has passed a bill appro
priating $200,000 for the relief of the
.Chambersburg sufferers, to be dis
tributed by Commissioners to be ap
pointed for the purpose; and has
now before it a supplement to the
Genciral Bounty Law.
'The vote on the Constitutional A
mendments was counted yesterday,
and, as the result is now officially be
fore the members, a law will be enac
ted to carry into effect the let amend
ment. Both parties in New York
State acceded to the plan adopted
there, viz .—that the •soldiers send
their ballots home to a friend to be ye
tell for them, the same as ifthey were
personally there, and surely, if the
Republicans of Pennsylvania mean
4irly, they will not object to a simi-

:the only way in which the soldiers

offsuffrage. If the elections are held
the army the officers will vote for
them, and it will also be open to

vek. It is not only that the people
are dissatisfied with Mr. Lincoln, hat
also with his party and its principles
—particularly as• to the war. Since
they. find that the Nvir is carried on
for the abolition of slavery; and not
for the enforcement of the laws, the
preservation of the Constitution and
- the Union, they think it ought to be
stopped. Breaking; off from Lincoln,
and still supporting abolitionism un

win not mend the matter, because
they still support principles to which
