Buckaiew—to send hi another narce to the Senate for Mr. Cake's position, which, they, think, Is the easiest and quickest way of ousting him. CLILINSON GOING ON AN ELECTIONERRMG TOUR. Now that it is certain Congress will be here next week, the President's confidential friends are giving out that he intends making an excur sion to Tenavace for ten days or two weeks, go !cg by way of New Fork. It Is not believed here that he seriously intends making such a trip; but if he does it will be nothing else than amelec tioncering dodge, by which he hopes to revive the drooping spirits of the Democracy of Penn sylvania and New York, because it is well known that if he goes on a tour of this sort, he will be accoreoamed by all the "pomp and circumstance" of glorious receptions, provided die Democracy have hinds and spirit enough to getup receptions In his honor. The eircurnismalibiatf, by way of New York is for no other object. The query here is, whether, when he passes through Philadel phia, will ithyor McMichael's fishing season be over ? wa21416 TILE SEWS FROM MAME bas completely elettrifted,ttut Republicans here, and filled them with hope and confidence for the future. Everybody now looks forward with bright anticipations as to what Pennsylvania will do on the second Tuesday of October, and twenty times a day I am accosted with: "What's the Old Keystone State going to do is October? If yon, carry the October eleetion," np with the Democrats, for they will scarcely make a show of opposition in November." I am strong In the faith that Pennsylvanktwill do her duty nobly in October for the Republican ticket, and my Inva riable answer to these questions is, that "it is all sell"—by at least 15,000 to 30,000 majority. I earnestly hope my predictions will not tall short of the mark. . The reaction caused by the news froM Maine among the clerks who are usually. counted "on the fence" was most remarkable. Nearly all of them to-day wore Grant and Colfax recitals on the breasts of their coats, as a sign that they were members of the great National Republican party. , While . I would. not doubt their fidelity. It is safe to Say that if the result in Maine had been different, there is some probability that many , who now sport Grant and Colfax medals would be equally as conspicuous in displaying the likenesses of Seymour and Blair. This is human nature the world over—so why should we complain as long as the patriotic clerks in tend to "vote right" at the next election? FRANK ni—un's vrsrr TO PHILADELPHIA. Just now the Democrats are very much con cerned about Philadelphia, which they are afraid of "losing," as they express it, and it was arranged that Prank Blau was to come to your city on Tuesday to stir up the faithful. He tele graphed to his father that he would be in Phila delphia on the 15th inst., and a delegation went on from this city to invite him to come to Wash ington, where a grand reception was promised him; but the delegation,af ter makinc a-short trip to Philadelphia, returned this morning; consider ably disappointed because ho did not come to Philadelphia, as he promised.; Busqualinmia.

The buildings on either side being of, wood, they too only added fuel, and nothing could be done to save them, as the town is without an engine. Soon every building on the east side of the square was one vast sheet of flame, and the heat became so intense that, in suite of the efforts of the citi zens, the large building owned by Mr. T. Bmith took tire, and with it the building belonging to the estate of. F. Fleishman. The Commonwealth office was in the building of Mr. T. Smith, and is totally destroyed. Nothing was saved.

The elty,On the receipt of that news was ablaze with hullgrurtion, , and Demoerataand Republicans alike burned - to avenge the insult that had been - . offered our flag. A meeting of business inen,'lriespective of party, was held - at the Chamber of Commerce, and stirring addresses ' were imide. Every volee was for war. Some one men tldued .the fact that Governor Seymottr was in town, and it was at once resolved to have a speech frdm him. One of our - rnOst highly respected citizens—a personal acquaintance of Seymour's --hastened to infer& him of the •intended call. He was found in the ladles' parlor of , Me hotel, received the Milwaukee" gentleman most cor dially, and represented .himself. in the best of beOlth. But, when informed that, the crowd would presently-call' upon him fora,speedy, he promptly replied that he should not respond. -But you must,' replied his friend. 'The crowd'- not take no .for' an answer.'. 'I shall not do it,' said Sey mour, I don't know how this thing 18 going to turn, and I shall not speak. - Yon - must , tell_ the crowd that lam sick and cannot respond.' The Slilwankeean refused to tell this falsehood, and turned and left the 'great statesnian.! Shortly after, another ,of his acquaintances, also a gentle man of high standing in this community, waited upon him with the same errand. He found Soy- mom in his room sick, was fairly deceived by. his cotipterfeitillness, and left him. Shortly after- IV ala, a committee of gentlemen called upon the Governor and fairly dragged him out,upon the , balcony. He simply thanked . the crowd for the compliment, and excused himself from speaking on the score of sickness." , , Bluth Democratic .Proselytization in South Carolina: [From the Charleston Newe of the 12th.l A t a great Democratic tting held at the Charleston Hotel last night, GM. John B. Gor don, of Georgia, during his speech took occasion to address the colored people in the 'audience. He addressed them in plain colloquial style, ex po Sing Radical falsehoods, and warning them against the evil advice of men who tried . to stir np 'ill feeling between them rind the white people of the South. .He told them the Northern people had owned theft' fathers as slaves, and if they had set them free for love, the freedom would have been accorded them then, and they themselves might have been born free and have already owned the forty acres of land the lying scoun drels had promised them. He gave them an ac count of Helper and his book, and pointed out to them its bearing on the questions of the war of races and the extermination of the blacks. He warned them against the consequences of turning a deaf ear to all that the Southern gentlemen told them, and declared to them that if they con tinued to listen to and heed the ennuis of de signing bad men "the leaves on the trees now erten would not be turned red by the autumn freest before they would be stained with, the blood of the white man and the black." Gen. ELlipatriek: In the Field. At North Orange, New JerseY, last night, a graniL- meetingL_ofßepublicans -- wad - held at the "Tannery," to witness the reception_of General Judson Kilpatrick, the leader= of Sherman's cav alry. The General was met at the depot by Mr. Theron Baldwin, President of the Grant and Col fax Legion of Orange, and was escorted to the . "Tannery" by the Grant and Colfax Legion and the Pion the members of the 'escorting party bearifig torches and illu minations. At the ball. which was hand somely and uniquely, deedrated with festoons of flags, evergreens and flowers, the Gen eral was received with round after round of ap plause. When this had ceased ' two campaign 1-ruts from the "Radical Drum Call" wore sung by the Glee Club, a patriotic air was played • by a band from Newark, and a battle piece eulogis tic of Kilpatrick 'and his troopers was recited. Gen. Xilpatrick was then introduced. His speech was delivered with a vim and decision that coincide with his character as <a soldier, and was frequently, interrupted --- by the enthusiasm of the audience. - Gen. Kilpatrick said that when in 1864 the Gov 'ernor of New Jersey refused 'to permit the 33d Regiment of New Jersey to vote for whom they saw fit, he promised them that when again at borne no man who had sympathy with rebels shodla hold place or position in the Nation if he ,eould help it. He had now returned to redeem his Pledge. He rejoiced to see that. although the Republican party bad suffered-some few defeats, and',had witnessed the defection of =some of their 'formerly most . respected representa tives, ' they still persevered to' struggle for (freedom and equality' for 'one and all. Though absent from the , United States he had still been surrounded by ellizentrof a 'Republic; our firm and faithful allies, who look upon the Great Republic as the greatest and only bulwark of freedom in the world. When our victory of nextiNovember is sent forth to the world the hills _and Vales of Chilawilire - echowith - the - vietorkatia name of Grant, first in peace t tfirst in war, and first fit the hearts of his countrymen. Viewing theatairs of the nation as he knew them, ke con- WHOLit,COVNTILY. eidered that both parties had been consistent.

They had determined_ to' rule or rnin ; . but, thank - God, they hive only the latter for themselves. When Mr. Lliatolawtta elected, the littlit Fort Sumter, with .int-Airrison of 80 men, was attaeked by forts and. batteries manned by 5.000 of the Chivalry. This commenced hostilities, and the : , p, war rog, reseed until Sherman had fought his wayinto Athena, the Gate City of 'Georg* and Wetter eVerywhere greeted the 'Union armies. Then , the Democracy of the North rushed, not arms,, but to Chicago, Into a Convention, and declared. the , war a failure. So it _was for-then at the - South:. ,Ettin.itobert E. Lee_ aid, Gen. George B . McClellan were both , feated. -Rebellion and CoPperhead , Democraey were buried in aVedp,dark grave together. They verily believed that luinglng d had come: - At the end' of the war, they said, "Yes, the war's ended, :but It's a fitilure.r .They then used their utmostemdeavorstto grant to Rebels their former rightt and privileges. Now, as then, there are two parties. The. Znion inen.and the;Democracy of the North and their. Rebel allies of the South. '.'Referring to the Constitutiorr,theGerieral (said that the great questions beforo theat could not, be set- fled by old thettiries 'or- the effect' of past expe- rienee. The Constitution and Declaration- of Independence suited:our -fathers, but we have rewritten and purified the one and made a living reality of the • other.. We :have inserted, ono clause in it, and well insert others as often as .the bad Copperhead Demodracy North or the rebel element Beath make it necessary.' Speak- . 'Mg Of the organization of a band of Republican Irishmen in North' , Orange, the General said that so long as the Irish , people had identified themselves with the pro-Slavery, Democracy -the 'Republican Administiation could not trust them.. Be ' sympathized with them as victims of oppression, but they bad in'a free country'allied themselves to and placed them selves in the power of an oppressive party. Re desired to.see Irelands Republic governed by the Irish people,and when the Itishrmei proved - their sincerity in a Republican cause he would give them his word and sword to aid their cause. At the conclusion of his Speech, the General was rapturously cheered, and as the meeting broke up was escorted to the depot by a torchlight pro cescion. The Banner of the South contains the following bold declaration of the virtue of the " Lost Canse•"; " With shame and regret, we have noticed that not a few of our public speakers, and very many of our Southern journals, {when discussinglhe political questions pending before the people, allude to our past.when they allude to it at ail, In a tone of apology. We protest SgainSt such apologies, and we haveless respect than .we wthdellike to say for such apologists. To speak or write of the cause of the South in an apolo getic tone may possibly, just now, be the best policy;but we,for eme,scorn such policy. We would not abate one iota of the hiatory.of that past to please, any party or to win any. political victory. Better bejust than successful- If there were any thingin that past to bring the blusleof shame to, our cheeks.--if there did not-eletirly . exist on our side—then, indeed, there might be reason enough for apology and "No—we have nothing to apologize for; nothing to ask pardon for. There is nothing in connection with our Cause to be , ashamed of ; and we ousht,tope far too proud to make an act ~of coitrificni'for daring' put on" the suit or grey.' Away,-thent with apologies! When you speak 'of the South,sand .ber People, and her Cause, use brave' words; .do not lower your tone, and sacri fice not a single glory or principle of the past, to any or all the policies of the present. Conces sion 'to ihepresentds Oftentimes 'aposlacy from the past. If you are to choose between:them, for the Bake of the dead that hallow our land es they have hallowed .four ' history, prefer the past. If political triumphs, in the" Present, are to be won, at the expense of our love for the Paat,,let such triumphs, a thousand times, be lost. For God's sake, let us not worship mere succeaS—it is a mean rellglim unworthy of a • man. Let ,us ,„ exhibit a nobler sprit; let us stoop to no nnwOr tby means, in or ei.to achieve political victories. Right defeated is better than' Wrong victorious. And the man of the South, who dares to `apolo gize for our Cause, and. our Course, commits the most heinous of all treasons—treason against our Great Past and our Honored Dead.

AT rime AnClT—Last evening the Etchings Troupe gave Anber's grand opera Crown Dia , monde to a crowded house, The representation was in every respect satisfactory. Whatever dif ference of opinion there may be upon the qnett lien of the , capabilities of the individual artists o f the company, it cannot be disputed that in precL. Mon and exactness the Etchings troupe surpass all rivals. In anything they attempt, they give evidence of the best training. There is ner m an e ' fiaw, a mistake, or a stumble. The perfor 'progresses with the absolute accuracy and steadi-: nese of a nice piece of machinery. This was erni bently the case last night ; and there was, more over, such attention to the details of costume, by play, elcc., that nothing was to be deeired in the mechanical execution of the piece. In an'artistie sense, also, the performance was excellent., Perhaps the palm of highest; praise 'should be awarded to .Mrs. Seguin, who person ated "Diana" and Sang With more than usual sweetness. There are few rules' in which this charming actress is not acceptable; but in the beautiful music of Oman _Diamonds she is espe- Malty good. It is perhaps unfair , to give her all the praise. Mies Etchings as "La Catarina," Mr. Henry Peakes as "The Count," Mr. Castle;as ' "Ilenrique," Mr. Campbell as "Rebolledo." Mr, Bernard as "Don Sebastian," Mr. James Peaken as "Muguos." all did ample justice to their re spective parts, and the applause lavishly bestowed upon them proved the high appreciation of the audience. • • This evening Albert Lortzlng's comic opera, "The Czar and Ximmerman; or, Peter the Cream, Saardam," will be given' for the first time in _Eng lish in this city. This opera has been adapted for the English stage by Miss Richines herself- - a statement which is sufficient guarantee of the excellence of the adaptation. For the informa tion of our readers we append a brief synopsis of the plot: The characters are: Peter the Great, wider the mistimed name o f Peter Michaelow. a carpenter. Peter Ivanoff, a Russian carpenter. Van Bett, Burgomaster of Saardam. Mary, his niece. ;- Mrs. Brown. Admiral Lefort, Russian Ambassador. Lord Syndham, English Ambassador. Marquis De Chateauneuf, French Ambassador . The argument is as follows: "Peter the Great, Emperor of all the Rtu3slas, and Peter Ivanoff, a deserter from the Russian army, work both as carpenters in the employ of Mrs. Brown, in Saardam. The ambassadors of France and England, being advised of the pre sence of the Czar dieguised as a carpenter, try to find him out, and either to enter with him into some treaties advantageous to their nations, or, in case of failure, to seize him by force and carry him off to their countries. Lord Sandham, the English ambassador, employs the stupid, self conceited Burgomaster of Suardam to find for him a Russian by the name of Peter, without tell ing him, however, his real character. The. Mayor goes to work, but happens to fall in with Ivanoff, the deserter, whom he Wage before the English ambassador. Lord Syndham, believing him to be the Czar, tries to arrange some treaties with him, and finally gives him a passport with , which he might safely, get over to England. Tee people of Saardam, being told that the Czar is in their midst, prepare for ,Ivanoff, the supposed Czar, a pnbile reception. "In the Mesta time the French ambitesador has found out the real Czar, by telling him a story of a Russian defeat, which makes him betray him self, and succeeds in all his diplomatic objects. The Czar, whose presence -at home is needed'to crush a rebellion against his throne, -is looking for some means to get sway unobserved and un mob sted by the Hollandlsh authorities and Eng liah cruisers.‘ Seeing by chance 'tho passport that the English ambassador gave to Ivanoff he seizes it as the only chance of escape giving Ivanoff another paper instead, which he (Ivan) must not open before one hour has palmed. Daring this time the people of Saardam give the supposed Czar (Ivan) a public reception. Iu the middle of the festival cannon shots are heard, the door leading to the port is opened, and the Czar, in company with Lelort and Chateauneuf, aro seen on the deck of a departing vessel. Ivanoff opens the paper and finds that Peter fdichaelow was the (,zar, who gives him (Ivanoff) a good shun. tion and consents to his marriage with Wary." At THE WAtsiox this evening the , drama. Foul Play will be repeated. It will be. Withdrawn at the end of the present week, to accomodaua Yir. Edwin Adams, who will begin an engagement on Monday. - At Tun Crnrs.rxer The ;Rite Fawn bolds its own adunrably,and continues to attract large an diences. It will probably remain upou the stage for some time yet, being improved occasioually by the addition of new scenes At Tire Ameniceor—to-night a miscellaneous performance will be given. Ma. CARL BENTZ has wisely determined to in augurate a second series of those etartnine or chestral matinees which afforded so much pleasure last winter to the lovers of good music. In his circular the manager says : "The past season,lB67-68,has bean regarded as one of the most disastrous to managers and pro jectors of public amusements—only those MC seeding which, on the one hand, pass( seed mwe _than ordinary intrinsic merit, or, on the,other, appealing to a vitiated taste, depended upon sensational attractions of questionable pro priety. It is, therefore, with a just pride in art, that the success of the Orchestra Matinee is referred to; for it settles" conclusively that their novel and pecttliar features of pro gramme have been appreciated and approved. Whatever doubt was telt before the commence ment of the series, ty the admirers of that form of musical composition knciwn' as Symphony, was soon dispelled by_ the enthusiasm with, which 'the grand works of Haydn and Mozart were re ceiveti by large audiences representing-all-classes of society. So satisfactory and assuring are these evidences,that the design foreshadowed in the an nouncement of last year,'of producing sympba nies by' Beethoven' and other great masters, will now be carried into execution; for; in additicinlo symphonies by Haydn and Mozart, other than those already given, the repertoire of, the coming season will be enriched by the First, Eighth and Tenth of Beethoven, (otherwise known as the Battle of Vittoria,) the Unfinished Sym phony of Schubert, a work of transcendent beauty, and the , celebrated Reformation Sym phony of Mendelssohn, which bas created a marked sensation in musical circles Wherever it has been performed.", • The first matinee will be given on Thursday, Oct.
