SATURXPAT, AUGUST 2T, 1564.
THE IMION COM! TICKET.
The Convention that met in this.. Borough
on 'Monday last,- was one of the most intelli
gent and respectable we ever saw. The dcl
gates came with a fixed determination._ to
nominate a good ticket without regard to per
sonal prediledtions, and it is acknoWledged
that they succeeded. The almost harnioriY
and good feeling prevailed during the entire
HOWELL Fisnen, Esq., ofPottsville,the Uni
on candidate for Congress, was born in Wood
bury, It J., and came here a bay in 1529,
with his father, who removed his family here.
Mr. Fisher was educated here ; subsequently
studied for the bar..; was admitted, and, has
been a' successful practitioner in the different
Courts of this County for upwards (it fifteen
years. In Piti) Mr. Fisiten was ejected Dis
trict Attorney of Schnylkill County by it large
majority. Such was his popularity that he
ran ahead of his ticket. He occupied that.
position for three years to the satisfaction of
the people of the County, Ile discharged the
duties with great 'fidelity and abilitf. Mr:
kismet; is a gentleman of the most unyielding
and uncompromising Union principles ; one'
who possesses a find mind'and a strict sense
of honor. He is remarkably popular not only
in, his own, but with the opposite party, and
we do not doubt that he will. receive at the
()cipher election many D emocratic Votes. If
elected, Mr.. Fisnia will represent this pis
trict in Congress honestly; patriotically:and
with ability. Unlike the man Strouse, who
during the Rik session misrepresented the
Union sentiment of. Schuylkill, Mr. Flatus
if elected, stick to and support the Gov
ernment. All honest,. loyal men. pray that
Strouse who is re-nominated by the Copper
heads, may not be sent again to disgrace
co . LoNEL riENRT of Tamaqua,, the
candidate of the Ugion party for the State
Senate, is a gentleman whose military career

teers, and he gallantly led the Ninety-Sixth
Regiment in many sanguinary charges on the
foe. After his retirement from the service

speaks - and writes both English and German;
is extensively acquainted in the County, and
is universally "respected for his integrity as a
man, his worth as a citizen. In 1860 51r.
Al:mouse was elected a' Com Missioner. of
this County by a large majerity. He was an
excellent officer, distinguished for the obli
ging, accommodating manner in which he dis
..charged the.duties of the position. -If elec

is an honest, capable man ; the - position of
Auditor is important, and our citizens should
see that beis elected. A reliable, intelligent
Auditor will save thousands of dollars to the
tax-payers of the County. •
This, citizens, is the tinion County ticket:
Is it not a good one Can you not feel pride
and confidence voting such a ticket ?`..is
it not worth working for?: Your reply Will
assuredly be in the affirmative.. Go- to Work
then, and resolie that it shall be elected by a
decided majority, in October. Say, so, and it
can be done: To have such a splendid ticket
defeated, when if the, Union men here -exert
themselves, they :can elect it, would be - 'll
shame and a disgrace to Schuylkill County.
Resolve that it shall be successful. .

trial occupying foor months by court martial,'
the officers of the court being' Some of the
highest in the service, Dr. Wm. A. Ham
mond, Surgeon General LT. S. A., has been
found guilty of *robbing the .Government
through Wyeth . Brether of Philadelphia
and William A. Stephens, of New York, of
hundreds of thonsauds of dollars, by furniah
ing inferior, drugs, blankets, etc., and hes
been dismissed the service. But the. matter
will not rest here. The Solicitor of the :War
Department have heen instructed. to cause a
prosecution to be commenced against Ham
inond,, the Wyeth's and Stephens, to recover
the - amount of the frauds Which those parties
were proved, in the trial .of the.late . Stirgeon
General,,to r have committed upon the United
States. Hammond. is . a . malignant : Copper=
. head, who took advantage of his position to
rob the Government and kill 'our soldiers.—
He is now appealing for sympathy to the
Copperhead journals, against the "arbitrary"
proceeding of the. Government 'in making a
scoundrel disgorge, and they with admirable,
-fellow-feeling,. are extending it to him. For
the next two months Hammond will .be - a
martyr with the Copperheads ; whett the fact
is, he deserves to be hting, for killing scores
of oursoldiers with baddrugs.

But ho failed in the Conventil* because he
had not bought a thurch. His oppon
ent, who we: learn is also* catholic, very .
quietly bought a Protestant church ;Alike at.
Schuylkill Haven and presented it ter) thello;
man Catholic congregation. This secured
the influence: of all the Priesthood in the
County, who. would. Very 'naturally give their
influence in favor of. those who buy churches
for them: - Thus Judgeßiley was.left out in
the, cold, a warning to all who sacrifice pub. 7
licinterests to mere party Purposes. - Now,
the queition naturally arises,why the members
of other denOminations in this Comity.ought
not to demand Of 3lr. 'Randall churches for
