ORE DAT FOR LIBERTY
• On Tuesday of next week the people
are to make one united effort to rescue
the Government• from the ' hands of those
fanatics who are too weak and too wicked
to administer it for the good of the people.
The day for saignment is nearly past, and
the hour for work is coming. Everyman
must do his share of the great work. No
one can dependOn his neighbor ; Am. are
interested in the result, and each freeman
cannot honorably or safely neglect to do
his duty--all he can, to bring oat the full
McClellan vote. Every man who desires
the return of Union and Peace should be
vigilant till the polls are closed. All who
prefer Liberty to Tyranny have one more
chance to strike off the shackles which a
despot is seeking to fasten upon' a people.
Those who love prosperity better than ad
versity, must vote for their choice or lose
it forever. If the Constitution has any
friends, let them stand .by it firmly lest it
be voted down by the dupes of the negro
proclamations. The: Union should be the
first issue;but it will be assailed by those
who prefer aboliton. Free White Men,
is our motto, but shoddrchunors first for
free negnes.. See that nothing binders
you from a full discharge of your duty; a
full vote will elect McClellan and Pendle
ton, and restore Union, peaceand prosper
ity. Then who can falter in the work.
Treason from 9reeley's Tribune.
The first of thole quotations is from a
ending editorial in 'the Tribune of Nov.
30, 1860:
H South Carolina shall be left to stand
alone, we think she must ultimately recede.
Her people, we are aware, do not think
so ; but a single state will not be permit
ted to break up the Union. But if the
cotton states generally unite with her in
seceding, we insist that they cannot be
prevented, and that the attempt must not
be made. Five - millions of people, more
than half of them of the dominant race,of
whom at least half a million are able and
willing to shoulder. muskets, can never be
subdued while fighting around and over
their own hearthstones. If they could be,
they would no longerbe equal members
of the Union, but ash Tiered dependencies.
Suppose they could be overcome and their
military forces destroyed, what then ?
Can you compel them to send members
to Congress? Can' you • make them ac
cept federal offices? Can you prevent
their tarring. and feathering those who
do? If not; how idle to talk of subduing
them? If eight states having five millions
of people choose to separate from us,
,they
cannot be permanently withheld from so
doing by federal cannon. We propose to
wrest this potent engine from the disun.
ionista by , :saying to the slave
states-. Ifyeti choose to leave the Union,
leave it ; bet let -us have ad quarrel about
it. ' If you think it a curse to 'you; and an
unfair advantagetoas;'repudia' it; and
see• if yon are not mistaken.
If You are better by yourtelvei,go ' and
God 'speed yon; for our part we have
done very well with you, and are quite
willing to 'keep =along with you; but if the
association if; Oksome to you, we haVe too
much self-respect; to insist• on its ecmtinn
epee.. Only, the sheen of northernhayon;
ets can blind the South wholly to the evils
of secession ; but that may. do it. Let us
be patient, neither speaking daggers nor
using them; •standing to our :principles,
but' not .to our arms, 'and all will yet
be well."

More Drafts.
Can the people forget that two millions
four hcndred thousand men have been
called into the field by Ur. Lincoln, in the
present war ?
Can they forget that the people have
been told every year for three years that
the rebellion was on its last legs, and about
subdued?
Can they forget that every call and ev
ery draft was to be the " last call?"
Can they forget that another call and
another draft have regularly followed each
promise, proving these promises to be
false 3
It bas been.asserted, and we believe
truly, that Grant wants 300,090 more men
without delay. Shuman wants more.—
Sheridan wants more. For many long
years, more will be wanted if subjugation
is to be the policy.
The people are not blind.! They must
see that more drafts must follow Lincoln's
election,
Corruption of the Lincoln Party.
iattnu the Albany Journal, Republican :
Contractors have fattened on fat jobs,
adventurers have found the war a source
of private gain, moral desperadoes have
flocked about the National Capital and
lain in wait for pay. The SCUM of the
land has gathered about the sources of
power and defiled thereby its reek and
offensive odor.
From the N. Y. Times, Rep.
The mighty interests of tbe nation have
been made subordinate• to the greedy ava
rice of swindling contractors. The War
Department has been virtually in the
hands and at the mercy of mcn who care
nothing for the sufferings of the people
except as they serve their own ends, and
give them a chance to' enrich themselves
out of the calamities of the country. '
Brig.-Gen. Wilcox says:
Contractors have carried On this war.
The blood of onr men, the groans of our
wounded, the fears of the orphan, the
wail of the widow, have been coined into
money. Men without patriotism and
wisdom, have urged military plans which
have not accomplished anything.
From the New Haven Courier, Rep.:
Contractors have swindled the Govern
ment ont of hundreds of millions. They
have piled fortunes on fortunes. Corrup
tiOn runs riot at Washington. Even Sen
ators acknowledge taking bribes of half a
hundred thousand, while the leaders who
have tasted the spoils are lounging about
the door of every Goverum9t othee, and
by threats and bribes compelling the grat
iEcation of their wishes.
Political purposes and selfish schemes
have overruled generalship, and, conduc
ted our armies to ruin, instead of victory.
Newspapers and cliques have directed
and changed, from montb.to , month, the
policy 'of the Government, and unsettled
even the Cabinet itself, so 'tl?at no one ri
ses on this New rears morn (1003) with,
the confidenCe that any stable and efficient
bourse 'of action will direct the adminis
tration of affairs through the first quarter
Of the year, -
Mr. Dawes, Republican Congressman,
said : ,
The larcenies practiced under this (Linl

Vaitors in. Washington.
The Lincoln office-holders and negroes
had a torchlight procession in Washington
on the night Of the 21st. As 'they went
up Pennsylvania Avenue saltersl of them
stepped aside from the procession to set
fire to a large Union Flag which was sus
pended at the Democratic headquarters.
.1'1:ley burned the flag, after several efforts,
bdf some'fragments were saved and have
been•taken to Philadelphia, as a relic.—
•The procession made deliberate attempts
to burn the Stars and Stripes at other
'points; but were prevented by interference.
A soldier seized one of the vat:id:its When
trying•to reach the flag wittvhis with, but
the authorities interfered, took the soldier
who defended the National Filag, to jail,
and let the flag-burner go• on his way.
—lt will be remembered that General
Butler 'hung a citizen of New Orleans for
taking down the flag ; but now a Repub
lican ptomision in Washington burns the
flag with impunity, while a soldier Who
tries to save it is thrust into prison by the
Lincoln authorities.
Verily, Rebel's hare takdo Washington

to believe stiipid - and malicious inventions
like that, Why then free schools and a un

Another Draft.
.Another draft, it seems,,is (mining right
'along. It appears to be , a fact ,that, not
withstanding its enormous cost to indi
viduals and townships, the, five hundred
thousand call was a failure, and produced
very few men, comparatively. We, are
not surprised to hear, in this connection,
that the next Congress will be asked to
amend the conscription law, so as to com
pel 'everT iserseu who is drawn to serve,
no substitutes being allowed. The Na
tional Republican, the personal organ of
Lincoln, thus hints at what may be expect
ed if he is re-elected :
The object of the draft is not to fill quo
tas, but to raise troops, and it should be
executed with that view and for, that pur
pose ; and as every able-hodied citizen of
the proper age is subject to be called. into
the service, no tuan.who has been _legally
drafted has just pause of complaint on ac
count of his being required to : render his
full share of military service. The fact
that the requirednutnberhas already been
drawn is nctrearn why others should not
be drawn, if necessary to fill the quota.

lion. C. L. WARD, Philadelphia :
AIY DEAR SIR :-1 have received your
letter.- In the very beginning of this war,
in the first, days of the session of 1861, I
said, in my place in Congress, that I would
vote for all measures necessary to enable
the government to maintain its honor and
oiiguity, and prevent disaster to its flag.
Lhave done so.
I thought that by the adoption of such.
measures the faith of the government was
pledged 'to the troops in the fieid, and
most 'not forfeited 'by inadequate sup
plies. I never gave a vote which was in
compatible with this sentiment:
All appropriations, pure and simple, for
the support and efficiency of the army and
navy . had my cordial concurrence. It was
only when they were connected with oth
er and improper appropriations ; when
by reason of their populatity,' they were
loaded down with fraudulent items for the
benefit of contractors or speculators ; and
every attempt to Repgrate' them failed;
when they were made a stalking horse
for some abolition scheme, that I was con
strained reluctantly to vote against the
whole bill.
Bnt I repeat that I voted against no
bill which was confined simply to the ob
ject of supplies for the army and navy.
I am, very truly, yours,

TIE WEST WAR. NEWS!
It is useless to deny any longer, that
Federal prospects in Georgia are gloomy.
The War Department receives not t one
word of encouraging news. If any came,
it would long since have been published.
The_ Southern journals are filled with
accounts of Beauregard's• progress. Up
to October 12th, he had. captured thirteen
hundred and seventy Federal prisoners,
and destroyed a large amount of stores.
There is very little additional intelli
gence from the Shenandoah Valley.
Five thousand Federal soldiers were
killed, wounded and captured. Sheridan
states thatfrom eight hundred to a thous
and of his , men were taken prisoners.—
Fifteen hundred, Confederates were cap
tured. The number of guns taken is now
variously reported at from forty-three to
forty-eight. Three hundred ,Confederate
wagons and ambulances were also taken.
The position of affairs in the Valley is
about as it was before the battle began.

the effects of hii confinement, at the, age
of fifty-six years. The Bloomsburg Star

a useful and worthy citizen, the church an
exemplary member, and his family a kind
parent." Forty-four persons,were arrest
