Eljr FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1862. THE PLATFORM OF TREASON, AS PRE PARED BY THE LEADER. OF THE BRELKINRIDGE PARTY IN RENINSYL- AN . The following is the resolution wri ten by Dlr. W. W. Higbee, the Ohittrman of the Breckloridige Democratic State Committee, for the consideration of the state D ruocratic Convention. lt is tho moat lacid and °ninon declaration we have yet read of the opinions of the leaders of the Secession party of Penneylvauia: liesolved, That Penneylvanis owes her growth in po potation, aud'the increase of capital and wealth of her citizens, chiefly to the advantages which the American Union bad afforded for the development of her natural resources;' and that her glory and paramount interests are identified with the continuance of that Union.

HUGHES. THE Waft We have vague and exciting reports from Louis- Ville, . The war in Kentuoky has come at last to be something - more than a dismal recital of retreata, surprises, surrenders, and guerilla raids, and the misfortune of Munfordsville promises to be speedily retrieved: The Federal army is now on the offensive, and, under the skilful management of Buell, we have reason to anticipate a victorious result of the catest, which the telegraph evidently believes has commenc ed a' a point “ififteen adiessoutheast of Ilardst6wri.” Let us explain, for the satisfaction of those who have forgotten the geographical lessons of their school due, that Bardstown is the capital of Nelson county, and lies forty miles southwest of Frankfort, and about sixty miles from Lexington. It is connect ed . with. the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, and with Louisville by a short branch road, meeting the former road near Shepherdsville. Bardstown is be tweenthirty five and forty miles from Louisville, by railroad. The point fifteen miles southeast of this, which the despatch specifies, is probably Fredericksburg—a name already somewhat` famous in the history of the Rebellion. If the decisive battle of the Kentucky campaign has really taken place, we feel assured, for amply sufficient reasons, that General Buell has redeemed his reputation, and that the Army of the Ohio has shown the fruits of its recent reorganization by a most signal and complete success. With such able generals as Schtepf and Thomas on the right, Crit tenden, Wood, and Smith on the centre, McCook and. Rosseau on the left, and General Buell in person on the field, we cannot see how a reverse could be possible. The rebels cannot number over forty-five thousand, even presuming that the scat- ' tered foroas of Bragg, Smith, and Marshall have been combined. Recent accounts represented that Bragg's aggressive schemes had been abandoned, and that his chief anxiety was to escape into Ten- - rieSeee j but his ragged, war- wistrunpaid, ill fed troops, exasperated by failure, andinade desperate` by their sufferings, were rather anxious for the final atruggle than otherwise. Such men may make an obstinate resistance to our advance; they may make a victory cost us dearly, as they did at An tietam and Corinth; but the history of the rebel lion has shown that mere desperation does not 'flake an army. We may expect momentarily to receive the intelligence that Kentucky has been freed from every semblance of an organized rebel force. We say this in the full light of the later • Louisville despatches, which sem to be unfavor able in their tenor. We await the full story with anxious interest. From the Army of the Potomac we have but little of interest save the general order of Gen. McClellan congratulating his army for the vioto ries of South Mountain and Antietam. [hie tri bute to the valor of the living and to the memory of the dead is touching, earnest, and assuredly well deserved. THE NEWS A LETTER from our special correspondent, at Washington, somewhat out of the usual hackneyed course, will be read with interest. lii another column we print the proceedings of the Triennial Episcopal Convention, including the committee report on the rebellion: AMONG the trophies wen from the rebels by our troops in the late victories in the neighborhood of Corinth was a large quantity of "new arms of, English make." The rebels, it seems, are still de pendent On England for their rifles, which, some how or other, they contrive to smuggle into the country in quantities sufficient to arm the con scripts whom the leaders in the insurrection com pel to enter the ranks. Onu local columns contain full reports of the various public meetings held last evening. Br is reported that the rebel authorities have for bidden the publication of the President's emanci pation proclamation in the Southern papers, and that the rebel soldiers, fearing the effect of the, premise of freedom upon the slaves, have already b. gun to demand permission to return to their homes to protect their families. ANOTHER letter from Parson Brownlow appears in The Press to-day. It contains a variety of interesting personal statements, which must com mand attention, coming from such a source. Immediate 'Action. But a few more days remain until the elec tion takes place. The signs of the times are encouraging, but we think it proper to remind the people that success can only be secured by earnest, immediate, and persistent effort. The enemy is vigilant and well-disciplined. Able leaders command its various local organi zations. All that chicanery, misrepresenta tion, intimidation, calumny, and anger can do will be accomplished. They are working in secret by •the aid of ward committees, and precinct committees, and committees that go to every man's house and solicit 'his vote and influence. They have no public press ; they have no cause ; they have not even held a ge neral mass meeting. Their last attempt sent a prominent orator to prison, and they do not care to invite the people to hear sentiments at which their soul would revolt. It is not by enlight ening public opinion, but by poisoning and de moralizing that they hope to succeed. Let the people know the truth, and their ticket would have no more chance of election than WENDELL PHILLIPS in the First Congres sional district of Georgia. The longer - they think the more their eyes are opened. There are ten thousand men in this State who would have voted for SLENKEN and BAHn two weeks ago whose votes will be recorded for COWMAN, Ross, and the whole ticket. These men see the humiliating attitude the Democratic or ganization exhibits towards the .Union; they see that treason was plotted - in its councils and on the eve of being ;practiced; they see that every enemy of the country is in the ranks of the. Democratic organization. There are a thousand things to be done, and they should be done at once. Oh, friends! if you value the liberties our brothers are dying to preserie ; if you would protect the glorious Government, which is command ing so much sacrifice and devotion, spare no energy,no time, no counsel, influence, or ad monition that may bring a voter to the Union .cause, and rescue a citizen from the slavery , of the Democratic erganization. You can serve your country well in doing this, and she will honor and reward you. Let every citi zen at once enroll himself as a soldier of the Union, and enter upon the work of organizing victory. Let him go among his neighbors and friends, and show them ,wherein the cause id . the Union can be benefited by their votes. Make tbis argument clear and palpable; re peat it again and again; rehearse the facts that have been developed so ahundantly a and call upon their patriotism to aid in accom plishing a glorious success. Let every loyal man do his part in this-;great work, and our triumph on next Tuesday will be as certain as the triumph of truth, and the downfall. lof slavery, sedition, and crime. The Disloyalty_ of_ the Breeltinridge Leaders. In one of the speeches of Mr. CrrAnr,as NV. CARRIGAN, the. Breckinridge candidate for Congress in ' the'Fifth district, he is reported as saying that whenever a Breekinridger 'is called a sympathizer or disloyalist, he should resort.to the law of force, and knock his op ponent down. - Undoubtedly, the charge of treason is a serious charge when made against the citizen of a free State. WEBSTERR, defines it ss the highest crime, of a civil nature, of which a- man can be guilty; We are not, therefore, surprised that the Breekinridgers should recoil before such an accusation. Let us, however, see whether their sets and words do not convict the leaders of the opposition to the war of this monstrous crime. Mr. CAR itioAN, in his noisy speeches, avows ultra loyal sentiments, and we notice that the Doyles town Democrat publishes, in glaring capitals, a declaration said to have.been made by him that he would oppose all peace or compromise with the rebels while in arms'against the Go vernment. But throughout all his canvass the burden of his harangues is made up of tirades against the Abolitionists, denunciations of the Administration, and general abuse of all the measures of the last Congress which were, passed that the war might be vigorously prose cuted. Mr. CARRIGAN is ktkoWll to this Com munity as a partisan, who, from the beginning of our troubles, has sustained and justified JAMES BUCHANAN ) and who in the late Presi , dential campaign, was Among the most zealous of the advocates of JOHN C. Bantus:atom All his associations, and feelings will compel him, fn the event of his election, to vote with the men whose known purpose it is to dis member and destroy the Republic. We need not go far to prove that this is the design of the Breckinridge leaders. Within the last two weeks, the Lancaster Intelhgencer, the im mediate organ of JAMES BUCHANAN, publish ed a communication seven columns long, in which JEFFERSON DAVIS is pronounced cg the savior of his country," and the writer looks forward to the time when he shall be enabled to "cling around' JEFFERSON DAvrs, crying, 4 well done good and faithful ; you have been faithful over a few things, we will make you ruler over many things.' " Not a word of protest appeared against this deliberate de elaration of treason. Doubtless, the writer, like Mr. CARRIGAN, would feel disposed to ktock any man down who pronounced him disloyal. What Mr. HUGHES has said, and what he is doing, the whole country knows; and Mr. INGRES is the accepted organ of the Breckinridge party. In the county of Ches ter, Mr. JORN BRINTON, one of their prominent champions, is so out-spoken and offensive in, his declarations against the Government as to lead many to suppose that he desires to be arrested and sent to Fort Delaware. Re ad vises his followers ic to stay at home and vote paper ballots instead of firing leaden bullets at the rebels." In the Congressional district composed of the counties of Montgomery and Lehigh, their candidate, JORN D. &inns, not only voted against the tax bill, but also against rewarding the negro, Rosana , SMALL, who ran the rebel steamer ,‘ Planter" from Charleston into the fleet under command of - Admiral DaeonT. And, as if to prove his determined hatred of the Government, aid his open sympathy with the rebels, he opposed the proposition in the last session of Congre,ss requiring '• the office-holders of the Government, whether elected or appointed, to subscribe an oath of alle giance that they had not voluntarily and of their own free will taken up arms to defy the authority of the Government." In the Second Congressional district CHAS. J. RIDDLE -is a candidate, after having de nounced the war as a Black Republican job. In the York district, ADAM J. GLOSSBRENNEN, the private secretary of JAMES BUCIIANAN, his emissary and tool up to the very last hours of his Administration, is in the field trying to defeat JOSEPH BAILY, another De raocrat, whose great offence seems to have been that he voted several times on the right side in the present Congress. In the Barks distria, ANCONA preSents himself to the pie and defiantly asserts that, notwithstanding his unfaltering support of all measures in tended to embarrass the Administration and prolonging the war, he desires the vote of no man who does not approve his course. If these and other instances that might be quoted do not, prove the disloyalty of the De moeratic leaders, what other evidences would do so? The City Ticket. In our previous notices of the gentlemen in nomination for city offices on the unconditional Union ticket, we inadvertently overlooked the names of JOSEPH R. LYNDALL, candidate for City Controller, JAMES C. KELOR, candidate for Receiver of Taxes, and JOHN GivEN, can didate for City Commissionep The fact that these gentlemen are in nomination for what may comparatively be called minor offices, in the present momentous contest, led to the omission which we now rectify. AU that we know of Mr. LYNDALL, Mr. KELM, and Mr. Grvux, assures us that, if elected, they will make honest, capable, and energetic officers. In a canvass like this, while the public mind is so engrossed about the success of the gentle men upon the Congressional and Legislative tickets, we should not -forget the importance vested in the city and county offices of honor and trust. The economy of the city finances demands a faithful Controller, while the rights of the citizens can only be protected by an efficient and honest Receiver of Taxes. If Philadelphia is allowed to fall into the hands of. an incapalle City Commissioner, she will very soon lose her high reputation for cleanli: ness, health, and comfort. We know of nothing in the career or character of these men that should lend to the mind of any citizen a suspi cion of their unfitness ; and it is a high tri bute in their praise that thus far in this canvass not a word has been uttered to their disparage menL It augurs an exalted sense of duty in our political conventions when such men are placed in nomination; and it will show a re ciprocation of this feeling by the people if they are, as they deserve to be, triumphantly elected. Our Cause. If the Democratic party had such a cause as that now marshalling the Union men, what a vigorous and vigilant campaign its leaders would make! Every corner and market-place would ring with the voices of their orators ; the walls would be covered with appeals and invocations; the bar-rooms would BWartla with earnest and indefatigable agents; the streets would be filled with bands of music ; every ageney that could fire the hearts of men would be invoked. All the terrors of their party discipline would be enforced, and were they in possession of the Government agencies and depots, not a nail would be hammered, nor a penny coined, nor:_ a plate of iron rolled, nor a rivet heated, nor an invoice entered, nor a tent stitched, nor a gun-carriage painted, unless by the hands of an ortho dox and active Democrat. We have such a faith in the Union—we know our cause is so holy, and we believe it is so palpable to the minds of men, that we find ourselves inclined to be apathetic and heedless. This must not be. It is suicide .and folly. No cause, however righteous, ever succeeded without the most constant energy on the part of its folldwers. The holy disciples could only preach Christianity in the face of persecution, and imprisonment, and death. Let us imitate the vigilanee of the enemy, and let us fight this fight as men should doWhose banners bear the legend of loyalty to the Union and devo tion to the. Constitution and the laws. A Dishonorable Transaction In. Common Council, at a recent meeting, a committee, composed of three Democrats, and two of the People's party, was appointed for the ostensible purpose of investigating the ex penditures of the police department, with a view to retrenchment, but with the political design, as the meeting of yesterday evinced, of injuring the character of Mayor HENRY. UPon examination, this zealous committee ascertained that the municipal police force numbered fifteen men less than the maximum specified by law, and, that the sum of $2,672 68 had thus been saved to the city! Such an untoward event had not been anticipated by the Breckinridgers, and they accordingly refused to report upon the matter yesterday. =The People's men, being in a mi nority, were not allowed to make a report at the meeting of Common Council yesterday; but Mr. Span demanded, the Fivilege of making a statement, which could net be re fined. The result was to elicit the above facts, and at the same time to expose a most infamous attempt to defame the character of a trust-worthy officer and Christian gentleman. which should not escape the condemnation of the public. It was a dastardly scheme con cocted for political effect by a clique of un scrupulous Breckinridgers, and it will most as stu edly recoil upon them. For the individual sake of Mayor Bunny, we are glad that this affair has transpired it is a most significant tribute to his high worth and fitness fur his position. The.Eky:is Bright. Notwithstanding the boasts of the Breckin ridgers, we feel that all is well in Pennsylvania for the cause of the Union. Our loyal friends haye had many difficulties to contend against. .Nowbere in this broad land have the enemies of the good cause been more industrious, in tolerant a n d defiant than in this city and State ; nowhere have they.proclaimed their treason with more impunity. The brand of ~shame has been burned into the brow of their leader, and yet not one of his followers has had the manliness to come forth and repudiate him. Money nhich has been made by , trade with the South is being freely used to accomplish the defeat of the Union tieket, and many who have realized fortunes ' from the Government con tinue to be indifferent to its trials, and decline to assist it in this terrible struggle. Bat, in spite of all this, our friends are in good heart, and rely upon the justice of their principles to crown their efforts with success on Tuesday next. We hear daily of accessions to the ranks of the Union party of Democrats who, fully convinced that the success of the oppo sition to the Administration would be greeted by the rebels as their victory, are steadily and sincerely co , operating with us. The New Navy Yard. A thought occurs to us which our readers shOuld remember. The Government con templates building a large navy yard, for the accommodation of our increased navy and the erection of iron-clads. League Island has been mentioned as the probable site, and there is every probability that it will be chosen. This would be a happy thing for our people. It would give work :to thousands of working men, and enable our coal and=iron mines to resume operations, on a grand and in exhaustible scale. Millionsiof dollars would come to us everyyear, and become a part of our wealth, our industry, and our material pro gress. Strong efforts are being made to de prive Philadelphia of this great improvement, and if, by any calamity the City should give a disloyal majority on next Tuesday, what an efficient argument it would be against us! Let our people remember this, and swell the Union majority to tens of thousand& Mr. Cassidy The - ingenious Mr. C.&ssiny -thinks he .has discovered an old. record of Mr. LINCOLN, show ing him to be a Secessionist! Mr. Ca.ismy might be at a better business, and if time does net press heavily on his hands, he might re. peat some of his old speeches on the Union, in which he denounced the Democratic party, and beseeched his friends to discontinue their organization. If this is asking too much, he may tell us what he thinks of PRANK W. HOORN& Perhaps, for the same reason that he makes Mr. Lnicora a Secessionist, he makes Mr. HUGHES a good Union man. Hovf ever - it is a 'matter of taste altogether. If - biiirny is satisfied with his affiliations, we have no right to complain. NicllolBo4 Again. We beseech Mr. Nichelson to keep his temper. We have no quarrel with him, and when he makes a martyr of himself, before a sympathizing audience, out of the persecutions of The Press, it shows that he is either very sensitive or too much occupied <to read the daily morning copy for which he sub scribes and punctually pays. We do not abuse him. Far from it. We only ask him for his opinion of the platform he now occUpies—the leader of that platform---and the Administration. Does he sincerely re spect the Breckinridgers who have pardoned his sins, and brought him into the temple ? Does he endorse his champion and leader IlcunEs ? Will he support the ,A.dminioxa tion ? If Mr. N/CIEOLSON replies to • Eitltsci questions, we shall promise rot to say another word of him, except perhaps to announce his defeat on next Wednesday morning. False Assessments ,One of our local Breckinridgers in this - citr, who was nominated for the important office of assessor in his Ward, was convicted of the atrocious offence of adding hundreds of ficti— tious names to the assessor's list, and is now an inmate of Moyamensing prison. We are assured that others are engaged in the same business, and may soon •-be -his companions. This .is a gartre - at which the leaders of the Breckinridge party are accomplished adepts. The utmost caution and are necessary to detect and bring to punishment these des perate tricksters. Corgamdze. Organize in every ward, county, precinct, and township. Wherever there are ten loyal men, let them meet and counsel together, to' sustain and cheer one another, that they may do valiant battle against the enemy. 'BOAC WASHINGTON. Special Despatches to ' 4 The Press." WASHINGTON, Octber 9, 1862 An Arrival from Richmond. Among the arrivals to. day is Captain P. G. YOUNG, direct from Richmond, having left that city, on Tuesday, by flag of truce, down the. James river. Be, with Major W. O. BARNEY, of New York, was captured on the 21st of September, while on a horseback tour in the vicinity of Bull Run, by the 13th Virginia Cavalry, under 001. OBAZAFTLISR, a graduate of West Point. These prisoners spent four drays pleasantly on the way to Richmond, and were treated kindly and hospitably by tbsir captors and all whom they met on the route. The cavalry regiment was handsomely uniformed and infiy equipped. There appeared to be an :abundance of salt, flour, fresh beef, and ehoes among the soldiers. Good discipline, courtesy, and kindness among the troops to. ward one another, and no whisky-drinking or card playing. Much , comment is made by the rebel troops as to'the careless manner in which our dead were burled on the plains of Manatees. All denounce Pors, but speak in compllmentsry terms of MCOLiELLAN. The country districti are exhausted of food for man and beast, and, in consequence, apprehensiono exist of great distress among the people during the coming winter. Everybody has plenty of paper money, of all descrip. lions and denominations. The treatment of the Union prisoners at Libby prison has been changed fOr the better, and those confined with Captain YOUNG had no cause to complain. Be, with thirty others, were in a large, cool, and pleasant room, attended by the guards and servants with marked kindness. The rations were served regularly, and the sutler was constantly present. The morning newspapers were served at daylight.-?1,1t2 DANIEL ULLMAN , and Lieut.

The Expedition to Central America. The departuie of the free negro expedition to. Central America, has been temporarily postponed, owing, it, is believed, to the unsettled political condition of that country, and in order to remove the objections that have been officially -interposed to such a colony.

' The Army and Navy Gazette Days the Confeierate invasion of Maryland has proved a failure. It may be fairly conjectured that the Confederates believed when they croesed the Pottmao that the Federal armies bad been placed hors du combat for some considerable time ; but Pope, though beaten, and well beaten, was not de stroyed. The Federal army, as a military body caps)* cit taking the field, was not pat tors du combat. • Tito Borth was not discouraged. Under these olr onmetances the invasion of Maryland became a hazard ous enterprite, and, always supposing the latest &deform are substantially correct, rt hae.not turned out well. If events have really occurred as described In the tele grams' McClellan showed a decided . flash of soldierly spirit in marching naolutely upon the lineal of retreat open' o the Confederates. We shall look•row for news of the movement made In Virginia by the Confederate force left South of the Potomac to prevent a blow of any serious cons quince from the defeated invasion of Mary land. The Times says that announcemente of decided m ama and skilful strategic operations prefaced the long chapter of revor eee ana defeats that attended the Federal army from Richmond to the lines of. Weehington. Ad vantages ae coalidently.ae the present victory have so *Men been claimed, and followed a few days later into die eater, that Europe is driven into incredulity, or a reeerva- Ron of Its belief But, at any rate, victories in the field without a' change of policy, will be very barren sue. COI NEI. Writiog in ignorance of 0-en. Maneltan , e victory over the Confederate'', tho Morning Post charges tdcOlollan with tlownres in resisting the invasion. It admits, how ever, that the Oonft deratee hero 'entered upon a most difficult task when they attempt a conquest, and shows that the result must be to inflame the North to most bitter hoettii y, and groat energy in defence of their toil. It thinks the only object of the Southern raid is to iecere a favorable position for making terms. The Star thinks something or somebody most give way. Zither the Union, the. Confederacy, or at least the Lin coln Government must yield to the strain of civil war. The crisis of the crisis. it'saye, hove surely come: • The cotton crop or ecinde will exoeed 80 000 bales, and the next year's growth will be three times that quantity. 4 The I ruler says that the Sunthem Olnb at Liverpool was meeting with great success in raising fund. for the relief of Southern prisoners in Federal hands. he con gribtitions already exceeded £3 000. The chip America, from Bombay, with nearly 8,000 bales of cotton on board, has been abandoned at sea. THE LONDON TIMES ON OUR VIOTORY. (From the London Timee, Sept. 27.] Though a greater victory than that now claimed would still leave the Federal Government in a desperate posi tion, the is Jittery. advantage, contrasting as it does with inch a aeries of deluge, is likely to produce a groat ef fect. Be* York requires bet alight encouragement to be hciperni, and a battle won, thongb fought on the wrong Bide of Washington, will probably make the commercial capital jubiant linlees reversed by some Confederate coup, like Jackson's descent through the. filenames Gap on the flank of General Pope, when he thought himself victorious the, :present engagement will revive 112cOlellan*s military credit. Considering the circumstances under which he set out from Walm ingt on, in pursuit of the mom dui Confederates, it is a coneieeralLe achievement to have marohed or fought at all. Yet be has done both with a celerity that did not distinguish his operations in the peninsirlee ; and he has done it with troops that must have been discouraged by c:otitinned_ retreats and the spectacle presented within' the lines of Washington, from which tbey again moved to recommence the struggle. But if Mc- Clellan bas really seen the battle, it is still a fatality of. the Fidel al Cabinet that it will not gain an unqualified sever tape from it. The General's past failures will be attributable to its official interfermice with his plans; his suooese Mill date from the moment dire necessity com pelled the Government to give him freedom of action. Tte Government le unpopular enough even for a success to be turned into a weapon against The best result of any successes of the Federal arms, now that the war has rolled up to the north of Washing ton, would be the possibility of honorably turning them to accorar, by accepting the offer of the Southern 0 en grist a, at least to consider Borne terms of peace. That body is shortly to discuss the question, and if any pro weal is, made it will require an answer. It may be diffi cult to give ; but no possib!e conditions of peace canhe imegined that would not be better for the whole nation. than a ccntionance of the war.

The attempt to infuse more vigor into the war by raising a partisan army Independent of the Executive has fatted for the present, but the mere pro posal of such a scheme shows what riertlous elements the continuance of the civil conflict may excite, with increased power, at a future time. It the Girondists cannot conduct the war the Mountain may ‘‘ organize its sections."

Trego, Beg, prealded 7 cresiated by the usual number of vice preeidorte and arcaetarler. Zdr, .Trego; on. Wring the chair, made an- eloo.tent ap. peal to the friends of the Admlnia.ratton, urging them to work actively in eapport of the Ziationet:Union , tietret on Tuesday next. He was follOWed by Hon Henry D Moore in %stirring speech. be said that his duty now wee to- sustain the Government, as it was the duty of every loyal man. We have befere ns two ticket" for our support. The °De is a ticket nominated by a purely political party the other. was nominated by a Convention of"the people of Peonsylvebia, in which wee represented every, party heretofore known in our State—Whigs, Amerioan, Republicans, and Deinoorma. Theiz• nominated for your-support tor State officers, one Republican and one Demobrar—both geed and.trnly loyal men—men who will eland by the Government; Men , , who wilt upheld end sustain the Government to event . meaeuro calculated to suppress this wicked and unholy rebe Rion. The speaker then reviewed tree past history of the Democratic party, proving that that party had nem turbo treason for the past twenty years. He denied the right of the Democratic party to Ppe* tor, the loyal people of the State All the leaders of the rebellion were, Democrats. The rebels grew in power by the fostering protection of the Democratic party. The rebels have no blends in the North,:except as they are found in that party. Now, that tame Democratic party issued an addri ses-' to the people, calling upon them to reorganize the party. they were so ashamed of this, that they had to give some reasonable excuse for such a procedure. Thin , un blushingly said that the Aoniintetratioti had arrayed itself against the Democracy. Who does not know that this is a falsehood 1 Generals McClellan and Dix were appointed by • Mr. - Lincoln, and both are Democrats. kir. Holt and Andy Johnson, both Democrats, were' also appointed by Mr. Lincoln to reeporialble•peettions. That addrees contains no weird of corideinnation against the traitors They said that they must put down the Abolidoplits.

Id there a sensible man who does not know chat rho fugitive slave never cams here except for free dom Give the negro freedom In the South and he will stay there. Not only thin, but the free negroes of the North would go down South, if they were assured of protection. You have an important duty to perform on Tuesday. You have not to settle a Question of party but a question of country. Wherever you find a man who thinks more of bit pasty than his country you wit, find' an enemy of our country. Wberevei'you find any one prating about constitutional siege yon will also find a traitor. Where were our constitutional rights when the trairore fired at our flag, at Sumpter? What constitutional sights have these traitor's, when they are arrayed against their country In conclusion, Mr. Moore made a strong appeal to his hearers to vote for the Union on Tuesday next,..to uphold the Government, and rebuke the traitor-sympa thtters in our adder Re wee followed by Colonel Philip B. White, who esid, in opening, that, although be did not intend to speak long,,ble heart was tulip in the came. He had dropped hie party prtdilectioni for the present, bemuse ho oe nevi d the war conldvonly , be'ended by his joining with other patriotic men in the formation of a great Union party—a party determined to. uphold the Union and en force the laws. 110 wee now in the party that was in fever of the Union uncotditionally. %%at nee, then, was there for any party I and, before God I row it, that the man who votes for any other party or any other ticket is a Secessionist. [Applause I Be Was a Kentuckian, and never ned a relative north of the Potomac; Re thanked God that that good old State is still for the Union. It was the home of Critten den and Clay. Why should it not be for the Union'l t outliers man•aa he wee, hating an A.bolitionist al ho elway a did, he wail now disported to say that, as the dava has bean need to carry on this war, it was time we ehOuld crumb slavery. It is a military necessity,- and Josiah Deaden raid this fo the speaker this- morning. He thought the time had arrived when we ehouid crush out slavery everywhere. CA pplanse.i The time ties come for universal emancipation. The Fount are perfectly willing that we should keep home the ball of our army to feed the other half. That is all rigtit. But if we say t, the South, that they' abould not be allowid to keep at home the half of their force' to raise food for the at my=-that's all wrong. The speaker alluded to the militia campaign, in which be and Judge Halley participated. Judge Kelley per formed his duties like an able and a gilled soldier. [Applause .I Btu services should be appreciated, and let him know it. The speaker rdid not say that all Democrate were Eleceeeioniste, but all Secereioniets are Democrats. Go to an) grogshop in town and see these thieves, and you will find that they rejoice at the defeats of our army, and gnu when we are victorious. For himself, he was for Abraham Lincoln. He was in favor of the emancipation : first, because of a militsny neceeeary, and seoondly E for a moral neceeeity. He was now in' favor of the extermina tion of every rebel In the land. He was in favor of arm ing the slaves, if necessary... He felt initialled that now we are in the right, and the right must triumph. Hon. Charles Gibbons was the next speaker. He re insulted that when South Carolina endeavored to break up the IThien Id '32. - Gen. Jaekeou said that there was enough hemp in Tennessee to hang all the Melton, in the United Stator. The crop would have to be a large one now, for the the traitors are many. He would like to have that pleasant operation of hanging traitors coin nat aced in Pennsylvania. Ihe work might be commenced 'with Fiancia W. Eiugbee, end _Wm. B. Reed. He .re 'nested the public • acts OIL those men, and especially referred, to the Democratic meeting recently- held in In dependence Evian. It was called together by that arch traitor, Francis W. lingbee, the self. appointed chairman of the Democratic Central Committee. Mr. Hughes was the Petnellyanian who prepared a resolntion:that the sympathy of our State was with the South. It was. however, never introduced into the Convention over whictrthat scoundrel presided. He had the presumption to tell Zdr.,Beveartl that 300.000 Perennyvanlans entertsta -01 the came opinions on Nwional affairs tr.. ifaggqes himself. What did he ilieetifiir We' Viddialgatiod - or those sentiments? He meant to invite the rebel army into the State of Pennsylvania. hlr. Hughes was the agent of the foul conspirators of hft.Scanl2.---ni+l.---.4...-maurgerollDTWillrer approach_ ng into Maryland, and that they would soon be In Penn sylvania. If the purposes of Mr. Hughes could have been accomplished, the hordes that rally seder the fistr of Jeff Davis would be warming themwlvea In Independ ence square. Had they got here, perhaps Hr. Hughes might have Ird them to the cemetery et Fifth and Arch streets, and there have told them '.there lies the body of the president cf the first Abolition Society in the Dated States—Benjamin II ranklin." And to beiconsistenrhe should have led them back to Virginia. to the grave of J,fferson, another Abolitionist. He nnuld probably then have gone to the grave of Wash ington, for Washington too, was an opponent of slavery. The speaker bad said that he was no Abolitionist. He would never say that again. ['Applause.] The Aboli tionists are now charged with bringing on the war. Was there ever a greater falsehood? The facto show that the Abolitionieta.were a very email part of the Government, too small to direct any movement. Our tationis now ander trial. It is passing through;a otitis of a most momentous character, and we Dave a duty to perform. Will yon vote on Tuesday for that party that baa no 8) mpathy with the Union canoe? for an organiza tion whose objeota are summed up in the desire to 800 the Boutbern cause prosper? t. The speaker deal xi 'to address the working men. Mu was their war; it le em phatically the poor usaD'S war. On the success of it de pends the hoicks of the world. Onr country is the pride of clvllitation and the world, and civilization and the world are interested in its perpetuation. No better corn. mentary on our institutions can be found than in the fact that liar. Lincoln began life a poor boy, and exalted hinastif, by, bis own merits, to the highest use in tbo gilt of the people. Li ibis . Government not worth Sghtiog for? It is certainly worth an effort at the polls. The Government invokes us all to support it now, in the hour of its agony. Mr. Gibbons retired amid much enthusiasm. Other speakers followed, and the meeting adjourned at a late boor. NATIONAL UNION 'MEETING IN THE EIGHTEENTH A mass meeting of the loyal citizens of the Eighteenth ward was held last evening, at the corner of - Fraakford road and Belgrade street. For a ward meeting the gathering was immense. Zdr.-Bamuel F. Gwinner was called to the chair, and a number of vice presidents and secretaries selected. A line band of music was in attendance, and great enthrt. slam marked the proceedings. The following resolutions were read and approved: Resolved, That in the great and perilous exigency of our beloved country, all partlean feelings and party lines, with their attending jealousies and antipathies, ought to be obliterated, and minor questions laid aside as unwise Bed unpatriotic, and in that belief we invite all loyal citizens—all who by their acts and votes wouldencour age sad strengthen the Government, and our brave volunteer army in the field—all who would witthold nothing of men or treasure necessary to restore the Union and conquer a permanent peace—all who would not compromise with, or mike — conceasions to armed rebellion—all whose pairfotismis not bounded by State lines, but who believe that national unity is the audio; of the Ileoublic— to unite with us in electing"the candidates of the National Union Party. Resolved, .That in the emphatic language of Andrew Johns, ' "Rebels in arms against thetlovernment have no) right to any property." We bold that they cannot invoke the protection of a Constitution which they spurn and repudiate; and we therefore assert that it is the duty of the Government to use all and every appliance in its power to clippie and crush out this mad and unnatu ral revolt, and in that view we hail with the liveliest satisfaction the recent war proclamation of the President declaring his intention to emancipate the slaves of all rebels who do not return to their allegiance by the let of Jenuaryi-.1863. It cannot hurt loyal citizeue; and, judging from the wail that comes from Blelembud, it is likely to strike with fatal effect the fountain 'lead of the rebellion. Reso/vert, That it is with mingled feelings of pity aid Contempt we look upon that uneasy, uncomfortable, and dissatibfled portion of our ao•called fellow-citizens," who spend their time in whining about the tights of free speech, and vainly imagine that by their much speaking they may become worthy candidates for Fortladayette ; the Mark Meddles of the community, etching in be kicked into martyrs ; fall of eonnd and fury about the fights of the South, but having no word of rebuke for traitors, no denunciation for the brutal and &ode' atrocities perpe trated upon the men and women of the South for having dared to stand br tbe Union; no sympathy for our noble 'oldie rs now in the field ; and no respect for the memory of those brave men who have fallen in defence of our time honored and glorioes flag. "They aro joined' to Asir idols—let them alone!" Resolved, That our heartfelt gratitude is due to the `gallant officers and men of our loyal armies and fiesta, Wherever they may be ;that we tender to them our high 'kilt admiration for their heroic courage, patient endu rance, and indomitable zeal, and we promise them our earnest and undeaaing efforts to .relieve their distress, . strengthen their arms, fcrtify thir hearts, and provide for the future well-being of themeelvecand their fami lia. The first speaker of the evening was F. Carroll 'Brew ster, lit, q., who, after a few preliminary rcrnarks,.called upon all present to sustain, by their suffrages, the Ad miniatration,and place in power man wbo would work taithfully in bringing to a speedy close the war.- Ile ' wished to see the old flag sustained, and it could only be accomplished in one way, by placing in office true and loyal men. The fate of the Government depends upon the votes cast on Tuesday next. If ;on sustain it, you will have but a short war; but if you rebuke it, you may have Stonewall Jackson to quarter his rebel hordes in 'Philadelphia. He did not think the people ccould be blind to their own interests. It was to the interest of the wotking man, and thoen engaged la , all :the different callings of lite, to sustain that dear and sacred Government which has so long nourished and pro ')ected ne. The speaker briefly alluded to the well known lability and patriotism of the various candidates placed in :;111CM11301i00 by the National Union party, awl contrasted -them with the nominees placed before the people by Conventions composed of disloyal men—men whose' only - . object is now to gain power in order the they might stipple the Government in its efforts to put down the rebellion. Wm. B. Mann, Beg, . was next Introduced. He came there to speak a few plain words of truth and soberness. There was never eo imports^ t au election pending as that - mow about to be deelded. Ho wished to talk to every man of a true and loyal heart If there was any man present who loves his party better than ate counter, ho bad no word for him; neither had he anything to say to Ittro Who sneered at the old flea, or wished Stonewall Jackson to come among us and destroy, Our homes, Ile bad no word of rebuke to administer to these who bed 'voted the Doziocratio ticket There are • soros local Issues to be decided.

A large and enthrmiastic meeting of the citizens of the Twenty. fourth ward was bold last evening on the vacant lot (*Waite the depot of the Market-street Passenger Eailway. Martial music was in attendance, and dis coursed several patriotic airs. At eight o'clock the nieetusg was organized by the appointment of the follow. ing officers: . • President—Albanns Ilolby. . Vice Presidents—Wm.. F. Bltindin, Theo. M. WM. berser, D. .1. Cochrane. Matthew Morris Secretaries—Cbarles Githens, Willis& Stokes, Wm. G. Davie. Theechalrman introduced as the 'first speaker of the evening Bon. William Id. Bull, who was received with applause. Dlr. Bail said that they were rot present to discuss such small topics as banks, eto , or even slavery, but to diseties . the subject whether this Union, with its glorious eionstitution, should stand or fall. If this ques• Lion was put to the whole people be did not believe that one in ten could be tonna who would answer in the nega tive. There are leaders of a faction, not a party,.who are affording all the aid and comfort they can to the ene— mies of. the country, and these must be pea -down on Tuesday next. I have been, said Mr. B, a Whig, a Be, pribPcan • a 'People's man, but am now nothing bur a Union Men. Be didn't care what the antecedents`of man wtro, if he preferred to upheld the arms of the Go very mentth Its efforts to crush this rebellion I will sup pc' t Mat. Be wanted all his hearers to vote the whole Union ticket through without a scratch. I would vote even for his Sataide Majesty , if he were on earth running for an office ' hefore I would vote .for the present Democratic party. The mass of the Democratic party are loyal, and they have proved it by shoutderiog their muskets in our country's defence i but their leaders are disloyal. We bald out inducements to form one grand Union ticket, but they would not accept'them Every men shonld ea - rffice his private feelings for his country's good. It is the duty of you all to stand by those of your fathers and brothers sow in the tented-field, who are pouring out their heart's blood in defence of their country, and you can best do this by voting the whole Union ticket on Tuesday next. Dlr. Bull then adverted to the General Order of General bicelellen, and complimented the commander of the Army of the Potomac for the - enunciation of his views. /f the vote of Penneylvents, on Tuesday next, should be thrown in favor of the so-called Democratic ticket, it would berhen a dezen Bull Runs to the cerise of our country. II would bo heralded from one portion of the rebel Confederacy to the other, as a victory for their canto in the North. The rebellion local:melees, and can not be auccessfully defended. There is a Notion with the Boat', who, while professing to eustam the Constitu tion, do all they can to weaken the Government in ite efforts to crush the traitor's, by stating that kir. Lincoln violates the Constitation by. Suppressing the liberty of speech and press, .kc. The most itelportant thing we can do, on Tuesday next, is to elect the Union nominees to the Legislature and Congress, for them two bodies are the main support. of the. Government, and traitors in them will do us more harm than in any other position. SPEECH OF E. SPENCER MILLER, ESQ. Mr. E Spencer Miller, candidate for Select Council, wee neat introduced. Ho stated that he baa not, nor ems he intend to make any promisee what he will do If 11, is elected; but he bat the proud consclotumess of knowing that every one acnnainted with him knew he would endeavor to do his duty. lie was always an Old Vihig,'brit when-that .party was broken .tip IM Menem° diwguated with politics, and at the last eresidentiatelect: - tion be did not go to the polls at all.

What do the so-called Democrats intend to do if they elect their men 1 They will endeavor to tie the bands of the Government in its efforts to crush the re bellion. SPEECH OF MR. JAMES MILLER.. Mr. James Miller was next intro raced, and he stated that be bad been a Democrat . all hie life, having voted for every Democratic candidate for the Presidency, from Thomas Jefferson down to. Stephen A. Douglas, and had supported every Democratic measure during that time, but in that miserable cabal now professing to call them selves Democrats be did not recognize anything bakpbe , g rag, tag, and bob tall" of those who do noth . g but keep and extend slavery into lands laid aside by God and nature for the white man. It is nothing but a stinking carcass, and he oonld not support it. Ho then considered the Question of the present pros perous condition of Pennsylvania, and what It would be if it wer e banded over to the rebate as the loaders of - the Present 4•Democratio" party intended it should be. • artEut OF 31011. GEORGE A. COFFEY. Hop. George A. Coffey was next introduce 4 by the President. This was the first address delivered by far. (lcffey, et a political meeting, since his recent severe attack of illness. Re delivered a speech full of fire and patriotism, which roused the audience to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. It was one of the most eloquent speeches we ever listened to, and we regret that the crowded state of our columns prevents us from pub hefting it. Coffey said he was now not engaged in any mere parts movement.. He could not imagine how any one could embrace party while the bayonets of the rebels are at the throat of the nation. There is now only one ques tion. Bow shall we treat those who are now in rebellion against the laws 7 The man who says the Abolitionists produced this war is a traitor from the top of hie head to the Date of his feet. Who fired at Sumpter? No Atho -1 Monists. Was it any Abolitionist who shot your father, your brother, or neighbor 1 No ! I challenge any one to show me one Abolitionist fighting the ranks of Jeff. Davis' army ! I speak this frankly because I am what you call a radical. I believe slavery to be a heil.born institution, and I thank God ho has soared me to see Pt °adept Lin coln shake the chains off the ankles of an tinoffending people. As I heard a prominent Democrat say, no matter who originated this war, we are in it, and we are bound fo carry it through until our country's honor is main tained.. There is no way to conquer the rebellion but ft') crush it, not to bribe its leaders. The Democrats intend to do the tither. This is the old war between aristocracy, on the one hand, and true Democracy and free labor on the other. There is a combination between the lords of the loeh in the South and the aristocracy of England, and the latter heartily desire the triumph of the former. We want to maintain the Union, and suppose it is ne cessary to break the chain which binds •the dove, and make the instigators of this foul rebellion pay wages instead of lashes to the poor black man. Are we to hesitate to use every meant in our power? I would ra ther eznanoipate 100,000,000 slaves than let the Union go to c entraction-, -Bather than see the latter take place I would destroy'svery living thing In the South, and make of it a desert Before I would see white traitors destroy the Union I would put arms in the bands of every man, no matter if he were as blank as midnight. I respect far more the poorest negro in the South than the ploudeet Seceecioniet in the land. 'I he proclamation of the President will be no Idle word, bnt will surely go forward to Mai its destiny. This country Rill then Indeed be the home of the 'Yee, and our proud banner will wave from the Atlantic Ocean to the Gulf of Mexico over nothing but free man. There are but two partied—the party of freedom and human rignts, end the party who believe we'oan end rebellion by suo cumbing to'treitors. Mr. Duffey then spoke of General McClellan, and stated that be knew it to be a fact, for be bad it from undoubted authority, that the commander of the Army of the Potomac urged upon the President the policy of latuitig the emancipation proclamation. Gen. McClel lan, before be anvocated the issuing of the proclamation, forme out that it was idlo to sustain the rebellion by sun porting its main prop. After Mr. Ouffey had (*minded, a series of resolutions were read by Mr. O. D. Glans, and unanimously adopted. ashington Bladan, Nen , next aldressed the meeting, after N.Thleb it adjourned. ENTHUSIASTIC 3IEETING AT BrANATUNK. In addition to the numerous meetings hold throughout the city last evening. a large and enthusiastic meeting of the loyal citizens of Manaruna urea also held, which was addressed by Hon. Wm. B. Mann, F. Harrell Brewster, and others DEMOCRATIC MASS MEETING IN . THE FOURTEENTH WAND - .THE FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL DIS TRICT. The upper saloon of the Commissioners' Hall, at Thir teenth and Spring Garden street', was well filled last evening by the friends of James B. Nicholson, Ben , Democratic candidate for Congress in .the Fourth Con gressional district, of Philadelphia. The meeting was . organized by the election of George B. Derrell. president; and a number of prominent Ward politicians vice presi dents of the meeting. Upon taking the chair, Mr. Bartell called the 8888131- bly to oreer, nod introduced Mr. Nicholson to toe as semblage, as the People's Union Democratic candidate for Congress In the Fourth District, who was received with applause. Mr. Nicholson thought that many of the meet ings now assembling in the various wards and over the ccuntrY;'instead of encouraging enlistments,•were de signed to forward only the interests of certain politicians thirsting for office. At one which he recently attended in the Immediate vicinity of= the hall in which he now stood, he 'heard Of little else from the speakers save remarks touching the “negro qldeetion,l 4 and very little about the war and Its proper prosecution.
