Ett rtss. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBLR 7, 1863 The School for Scaudal. SHERIDAN might have improved his Tome . dy, had he lived to study the rise and Tall of .the Copperhead party in the loyal States. Mrs. Candor might have been kin ,dled 'with greater malignity, and Sir Benja min Backbite have been made more con temptible. The author's . ' difficulty would have been found in the abunrThnce of ma lerial, and . in tbe surpassing wickedness of 'the intrigue to . degrade the Government of -the United States ; wickedness which would have changed his comedy to tragedy, or, .at the best, have made mirth, exciting more indignation than pleasure. Therefore, to find a commentary on the "School for Scandal," read the Copperhead press, and in one edition of the World slander suf s heient to gratify the most morbid appetite.. We are astonished at the audacity of this journal, which no virtue abashes, and no exposure affects. ' Its hostility to the Government is now a monomania, for that only can ac oount for the sublimely-foolish attack made ` in its leader of yesterday, entitled "Penn sylvania." Unconsciously Tim PRESS has . frightened the World, and given it the opportunity for .a new and unexpected slander. The "flank of the traitor leaders in - Pennsylvania Is effectually turned," we lately said with truth and this statement has so much distressed the World, as a consistent friend of Mr. Jus tice WOODWARD and slavery, that it devotes a column to the investigation of the move- rnent. In all the earnestness of italic letters it inquires=" What has occurred?" A flank movement. What is a flank movement? A master-stroke of strategy. What is that ? It is nothing less than a skilful movement of troops from the army of General MEADE. This is the way by which, it fearfully af firms the. flank of the rebel leaders has been turned, and a storm of righteous indigna tlim bursts upon the defenceless Administra tion. What excuse can it make to the lfortd for its conduct ? Can it say that, as Gene- .x al Lim was to invade Pennsylvania for the zuirpoSe69f strengthening the Democracy," it'thctight it, might send an army to weaken it? Such . 'sophistry will not satisfy' this subtle reasoner, which is peipetnally dis covering a new plot of the Government to destroy the Union, and apparently convinced that the Copperheads are risking their pre cious lives to save it. We admit that there has been "a skilful movement of troops from the army of Gen. - MEADE" and congratulate the World that its editors read their own news column. The corps of Generals. HOWARD and SLo- CUM have actually reinforced HOSECRANS, and this must be the "disgraceful fraud" - which the World has discovered. It heard that gip enemies of the Union were to be attacked, and, jumping to a conclusion with its usual activity, inferred that the Copper head party was in danger. The mistake - was natural. In like manner Mr. WILLIAM B. Rump fiercely declares that bayonets shall not keep Democratic citizens from the polls, and orators who emulate his eloquence tell the President that LiNcomi hirelings shall not make slaves of the brave Men who have staid at home to defend their right to vote, against the Government. The LINCOLN hirelings having done more to liberate slaves tbari to make slaves, will doubtless allow Mr. REM) to vote for any one he • pleases, and will not interfere even if he be comes his own candidate. Nor need the - Fold dread that the soldiers will demand its sup pression for insulting the army and the Go - vernment ; for had the Government chosen to punish the insults of its opponents, Gen. BURNSIDE'S order would not have been re scinded. The World accuses the Government of sending home all the Republican Pennsyl c vanians in the Army of the Petereee, with the tacit understanding that they are to buy their furloughs by.voting for Gov. CURTIN. Industriously has it studied in the " School for Scandal." Not a solitary proof or seem ing proof is given for this accusation, which appears to be based solely on. the World's interpretation of the quotation from TEE PwEss. We shall not honor the World 'with a refutation of the slander, and Mr. Justice WeoDIVARD may have the full benefit -of it during ihe rest of the campaign. Such charges will multiply as the great day ap proaches„and the slander will grow as the hopes of Copperhead success diminish. The World will find traitorous newspapers in. Pennsylvania base enough to echo its •charges of "infamous interference with. the freedom of elections," and " dishonest means, expo sing the army to destruction," but not one loyal man weak enough to be lieve them. The " School for Scandal" `may do its worst, but the fair fame of an up right and impartial Government will remain unstained, and the, argument for the Union unanswered; ANDREW G. CURTIN will be re-elected, and Pennsylvania repledged to sustain the - honor of the Republic, the prose cution of the war for its preservation, nor will one loyal soldier be needed at the polls, there to defend with his vote the cause for which he has so nobly offered his life. The Unimportant News-from Europe. Upon the excellent authority of a letter to the Herald we have the statement that France hasnot only recognized the Southern Confederacy, but has formed with the re bellion an alliance, offensive and defensive. Even the details are furnished; not by Mr. f3LIDELL, however, but by a Mr. MACBETII., a name hitherto unknown in the record of American traitors. This gentleman, who speaks for the rebels in Pails, asserts that the Southern leaders have agreed to recog _nize the Mexican Empire, including New :Mexico, California, and Arizona, and to protect it from the interference of the United States ; that France, in return, will lend an Army to Mr. DAVIS, march one hundred thousand Mexicans to the Rio Grande, destroy the blockade, and land French troops in New Orleans and Baltimore. This is the Unimportant News fro Europe, which even the Herald disbelieves to be true, and which certainly will not, "like an eagle in a dove-cote," flutter the strong hopes of America. If the Emperor will recognize a Southern Confederacy, let recognition come. It will .be an evil which the United States has done its best to avert, and which it is fully able to meet. It will not shake the foundations of 'the Capitol. It will not abate the courage of the loyal people, but rather increase it, and to, repel the new foe, a new army would arise. It would not change the re sult of the war, and could, at the most, delay the restoration of the Union. It woidd win the - United States power in Europe, suddenly changing England to a friend, and Russia to an active ally. It would begin a great war, in which America would have all the advantage, France all the risk, and the rebellion none of ;the gain. That the Emperor NAPOLEON would gladly re cognize the independence Of the South, were it safe policy, no one doubts ; but that he will dare to interfere, in the defiance of the great danger, we have good reason to disbelieve.o`France will interfere with the United States ? Then the United States will interfere with France, and the import ant news from America will answer the unimportant news from Europe. IF IN any township or county the triumph of loyal principles is doubtful, little time is left for loyaLcitizeus to work for it. -All the more reason why they should work. We ought not to lose a solitary precinct for the 'lack of thorough canvassing. Even in places regarded as the strongholds of Democracy, which loyal men despair of carrying, some , .thing may be done. Granted, a .Copper ' ,head majority in a certain township, argu ment and'example will at least diminish it. THE London Times accuses the President of inconsistency. The New York Times replies that upon one point, at least; he has certainly been consistent- - " he has never .earned the praise or escaped the denuncia tion" of its English contemporary. Nor, xnay it be , added of the Copperhead party, of which history will record theshame, that it never did one action in support of the Goiernment, or missed ortechance! to npi)ose it .'r.% r• MR. JUSTICE WOODWARD is vary ca rethl to make no speeches now, and, doubtless, regrets that he has so fully expressed his opinions in the past. His declaration, that he would not fully announce his principles until after his election, has lost him many votes, for responsible American citizens have the inconvenient habit of requiring open declarations of faith from their candi dates. Mr. Justice WOODWARD cannot be so blind that he does nut see that the people have a right to demand candor of him at once. Does he desire Pennsylvanians tb vote in the dark ? Anommolasm was, not long since, a•term of reproach, but Copperhead invective is making it one of honor. The, disloyalists of the North apply it to those who refuse to believe with Mr. Justice WOODWARD that " slavery is an incalculable blessing," or who will not vote for a man who declared that, for the protection of slavery, slave holders might use any means of defence in their power. The Northern servants of the South may call the unconditional loyal man " Abolitionist," but one thing at least he does not desire to abolish—the American Union, which slaveholders are doing their best to destroy, and their Northern friends nothing to protect. Mn. JIM:TICE W OOD WARD may , pretend that he is not in sympaihy with the rebel lion ; he cannot deny that he is opposed to the Governir.ent. While the rebellion threatens the existence of the Government, opposition to the one is certainly, aid to the other. Wag 5W4.401-4..)N. Special Despatcaem to Tae WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 6, 1861.

ARMY OF THE CIIMBERL IND, A Railroad Bridge Destroyed by the 'Enemy near Thlurfreesboro. DAMAGE TO THE RAILROAD TRIFLINO Rout of the 'Rebels. NEW YORE, Oct. 6.—A special despatch to the Herald from Nashville, dated yesterday, says the enemy to-day destroyed a large railroad bridge south of "Murfreesboro.. They burned bne portion and out down the other. All le quiet at Nutheeaboro to• NEW YORK, - October 7.—A. special &opals's, Prot. Nashville to the flerald, dated the 6th inst., has the following : Everything is of a highly encouraging character today. The railroad and telegraph lines are not materially injured, and the former will be opened by. to-morrow night. The design of the raid was to pre• vent reinforcements, but signally failed. A sinall party of rebels crossed the pike near Murfreesboro this morning. General Wilder's Union cavalry forced them to retreat in short order. Colonel McCook, in his recent raid, took one colonel, two majors, nine - line officers, and eighty: seven privates prisoners. CHARLESTON. Removal of Gen. Gilniore's Headquarters to Folly Island. Naw Youx, Oct. 6.—By the arrival of the steamer Fulton at this port; from Charleston, we have a re• port—apParently on good authority—that the head- quarters of General Gilmore have been removed from Morris Island to Folly Island. The continual sinking of the beach on Morris Island has rendered the removal of the . Federal headquarters, the body of the troops, and the mate rial, a measure of convenience, while there are sanitary reasons which would ultimately be con. trolling. There are said to be other causes for the change, among them this : that the troops will be not less available in the future operations againstOharleston, and they are entirely, out of range of any batteries therebeis have, or can erect, on James Island. The batteries which are designed to throw the Greek fire are now nearly complete, and recent ex- periments have shown tnat the fire may be safely and effectually used. Charleston is within fair range of the guns already - placed, and which are in such numbers as to insure the destruction of the city when they are turned upon it. This event will not take place until other plans are complete, and the navy is ready to cooperate with the army. • THE IRONSIDES. [Correspondence of the Baltimore American 1 " I had the pleasure yesterday of a visit to the Irensides .and of an inspection of herinterior. She is undoubtedly- the best and most powerfully armor ed vessel that has let been constructed. In all her service here not a man has been killed or wounded by the enemy on board of her, notwithstanding she has at times been under the concentrated tire of the rebel batteries at twelve hundred yards distance. From stem to stern she bears the scars and deep in dentations of the enemy's balls, but as .yet her de fensive strength is uninjured, whilst her offensive power has increased through practice and the perfect safety which the crew feel when she is in fighting trim. Each broadside of the Ironsides consists of seven 11-inch Dahlgren guns and one 200 pounder ri fiedParrott. The weight of metal thrown by her from onebroadside fire is within &fraction of fifteen hundred pounds, or three thousand pounds for both broadsides. No vessel that has ever yet been in ac tion has thrown an equal weight of metal, and it is yet to be proven that the armament of the Ironsides has not reached the extreme range to which the ca libre of guns can be taken without detracting from their serviceableness and capabilities for active thing."

The Demonstritions a,t New- town. and. itirlistod . OVERWHELMING ENTHUSIASM WITH WHICH GO VERNOR CURTIN" WAS RECEIVED. Tice Intense and Loyal Interest Manifested. Speeches by Governor Curtin, Hon. S. H. Hammond, Gem Richard Busteed, Mr. , Chauncey 31, Depew, Mr. 1. W. Forney, and others. [Specially Reported for Tb e Prees:l The Doylestown Union Meeting. Yesterday was the occasion of a large and enthu idiotic meeting at Doylestown. It is, therefore, no wonder that the train of cars which left, at a quarter past nine, the depOt at Third and Thompson streets was filled to overflowing, and that the transactions which were to take place were antioipsted with the moat deep and ardent emotions. A most lovely day enveloped in its bright beauty the delightful land scapes which line the route from Philadelphia to Doylestown. The glowing blue of the sky was only filmed here and there by a slight, transparent cob web of cloud ; the rich, well-cultivated lands were luxuriant in their autumn ripeness; the woods were • tinged and tinted with the many hues of . autumn. Almost every color, and almost every shade of color, were represented. Light green, glaiing yellow, delicate vermilion, and luxurious crimson, were mixed and matched together, and the mellow leaves shook and sparkled in the autumn air, and did not look lees beautiful than in the sweet unripeness of their spring, or the less immature love liness of their summer. Some of the thick bushes looked as though sparsely sprinkled with a spray of blood•drops, and others as though they were partiSl ly woven into a tangled web of scarlet and gold and green. >At every station at which the oars stop ped Governor Curtin was anxiously looked . for. In quiries as to where he could be seen drrpped fast and continuously from every mouth, and the sit ewers were caught up and treasured by greedy ears. At Lansdale the Governor was surrounded by a most enthusiastic- crowd, who shook hands with him, and with whom he shook hands with such a earty good will as did 'every Union-loving man good to see. The ARRIVAL AT DOYLESTOWN was the signal for an ovation that must have thrilled the smallest fibres of the breast of its recipient. ()beer alter cheer rang exultingly through the air, and absolutely filled with sound the beaming vault of heaven. A dense throng surrounded Governor Curtin,"as he took his seat in the carriage awaiting him. That dente crowd - pressed-around him, and,- with numberless expressions of fidelity, shook hands with their Governor, while their shouts and that of their comrades rung in their ears. The carriage was an open barouche, and was drawn by six horses, `elegantly decorated with wreaths of flowers, and red, white, and blue plumes.. It is to be suspected, however, that the animals had little or nothing to do with the progress.of the vehicle. The crowd of honest adherents who pushed behind, and the crowd which marched along at the sides, furnished very substantial relief- to the tine animals, which were supposed to draw the barouche to which they were harnessed. THE PROCESSION TO THE DOYLESTOWN COURT The carriage which was provided for Governor Curtin was , likewise scanned by Gen. Richard Busteed and Mr. J. W. Forney. Every step ;of the route was an uninterrupted ovation. The dense rows which lined the sides of the streetS, keot up a continuous cheer; wagons, carriages, posts, fences, Mumps, trees, balconies, porches, house-roofs were alive with people of each sex and every age. From every window the ladies kept up an incessant waving of handkerchiefs, and completely inundated the Governor's carriage with bouquets, which were very beautiful and most tastefully arranged. One of them was thus appropriatel3r labelled: "God's benieon go with you. A friend !" All through the route Governor Curtin was kept busy without a moment's intermission, in acknowledging the ho mage paid him at each step of the route. Even lit tle girls, standing upon the very highest stumps their little feet could climb up, waved to him a bashful salute, and were more than rewarded by his smiling acknowledgment. TUE BANNERS AND THEIR DEVICES "^:Jned no insignificant feature of the display. They ate Various devices, and their mottoes were greeted with shouts of enthusiastic approval. They were : t rui i every emergency ;" "Hurrah for Curtin ' 1 ‘ l 4irciodward cans Teum Curtin 1" " Andrew ICurtin, the soldiers' friend ;" "Curtin and Agnew." One banner was presented by the ladies of Buckingham. During the progress of the procession patriotic airs were executed by the Kulpaville brass band. Of the animated and enlivening effect of all combined, description can give but a faint ides. ARRIVAL AT THE COURT HOME. If the crowd and furore at the station had been noticeable, however, those at the Court House were ten times more so. The Court House is a large and handsome stone structure„ situated on Court street, and surrounded by ample grounds. In front of it a stand had teen erected, draped with the national colors, and mounted with gay. banners decorated with mottoes( similar to those quoted above. The Kulpsville. Brass Band were speedily ensconced there, and somewhat enlivened the anticipations of the impatient crowd by the execution of national tunes. The carriage of the Governor' . was. again overwhelmed with bouquets, fashioned and thrown by lair lingers, and Gov. Curtin, if he had Chosen,- could last night have literally reposed upon a bed of roses. Thejam around the carriage reached the cul minating point of density, and people seemed to think themiblves magically secured against , the kicks of horses' hoofs, the mud on the hubs and spokes of carriage-wheels; and the revolutions of the carriage wheels themselves. The preliminary arrangements of the meeting having. been made, the crowd oesa me anxious for some introductory speech. The officers of the Union meeting were as follows : President—George Lear. Esq. Viee-Preeidents— Thomas Dyer, George Hart, Moses Eastburn, William E. Crockett, Daniel Gotwala, Barclay J. Smith, Thomas C. .A.therholt. William Myers, Joseph Rosenberger, Harrison Moßhistry, Thomas Green, Spencer Frack,Seimuel Davis,Win. Mello w ell, Thomas P. Miller, Francis Worthington, Elwood Williaffis, Josiah N. 'Stover, John S. Stover, Dr. Charles W. Everhart, WM. K. Large. Secretaries— Charles McHenry, M. Loeb, Josiah Rich, John W. Gilbert, Robert tli Darrah, and Hiram Pearson. An opening speech was made by Hon S. H. Ham mond, of New York. The gentleman was introduced by the president, and remarked, in commencing, that his friend, Mr. Lear, had done him honor over much in announcing him as senator. lam from New York, but not a senator; I laid down the toga three y ears ago, and I shall never take it up again ; I hold no office; I address you not on my own personal interests. lam here because the State of New York has a little debt against the State of Pennsylvania. Is our debtor willing to pay Last summer, when the rebels were in the neighborhood of Harrisburg, there was. a cry that Pennsylvania wanted aid. We sent on to Philadelphia 15,000 men for the defence of Pennsylvania. But in dollars, nor greenbacks, must this debt be paid. 1 will tell them in New York that this little debtwill Certain ly be paid by next Tuesday. Governor Curtin has a large heart and a noble one. Last year the cur rent was- against us. We folded - our arms and said that the loyal men of New York were more than the disloyal. Now the mighty current of popu lar sentiment has set in favor of loyalty. Shall Pennsylvania stem that current I When I see such a vast collection as this before me, I feel that that current is to be, stemmed. The State of New York will help to swell that climax which shall end this struggle, and send down Copperhead's= into eternal oblivion. You may not, perhaps, have pondered sufficiently the 'momentous issues ' involved. Two things sue alike necessary—bayonets and votes. fighting and Voting."' There are deluded men who think that, in voting the Democratic ticket, they vote for the beat interests of the country: These great States of the North . are divided into two parties. The defeat of one of these parties will be equivalent to the defeat of the Union men in the field. Hence this .election is great and important. Such is the condition of things in New York, that as Pennsylvania goes that State will go. We are in a crisis unparalleled in the history of nations. Mr. Hammond's speech Was here suspended by the arrival of Governor Curtin. ABICIVAI; AT. THE COURT HOUSE .08 GOVILIVIIOI3 Governor Curtin arrived at the platform in front of the Doylestown Court House at twenty minutes to one. The air was instantly rent by three•times three, and the band struck up the Star spangled Banner. The view from the platform was more animated than can well be imagined. Thousands of eager listeners crowded Court street up and down and from side to Side. Hundreds lined the oppoldte roofs and doors and windows, and mounted up steps, fences, wagons, trees, and every available point from which an eligible prospect was attainable. When the last strain of the music had ceased, the president of the meeting, Mr. Lear, rose and presented to the expectant people " Governor Andrew G. Curtin, the soldier's friend and the friend of the Union." Srznoll OF GOVERNOR CURTIN. When the expression of the enthusiasm of the concourse had subsided, Gov. Curtin proceeded with his speech He was listened to by his intelligent audience with the moat hushed attention, save cvtien enthusiaem broke bounds. The. Governor spake as follows As I approached this place, I was reminded of the last time I had the honor of speaking before the people of Bucks county. I came to give to Pennsylvania volunteers the standard of their country, in 1861. lam not unmindful of the gal.• lantry with which that regiment has always per formed the duties imposed upon it, in support of a Government which has made this State beautiful to look upon, and was founded on the ex perience of the past and propagated by the purest blood that ever floweitin human velum. That Go vernment has been so mild and temperate that we have never felt its burden. The regiment which marched forth from .Bucks county went to uphold that Government. .' Then the distinction was not made between loyalty, to the Government and fideli ty to the President. Then prejndice and passion had net been appealed to. Por the Government, your neighbors have bled and eat the dust; for that good people prarwith each - returning Sabbath in their churchee. Oh ! why should we not be of one common .mind nowt The hearts of the people of Pennsylvania - should best in, such unison that no discord should agitate - a sin gle fibre of a single heart. I would not ' succeed by personal defamation: This is no time-for scan dal. Judge Woodward and your speaker have neither of them special claims upon you. The end which comes to all" must come alike to us, and the record of the little we have done will he disposed of in a single sentence. But there are principles in-. volved in this political contest which can never die while God is truth. Pretending to no superiority overany fellow.rnortals, I thank my God that I have one virtue of which I can boast—loyalty to, my country. [lmmense applause.] That virtue I have maintained for two years and eight months. It is common to say that this war is either for or against the nigger. Well, my friends, it is but candid to ad mit that some of the most immense interests and sacred principles revolVe around the massive and woolly head of the nigger. The slavebolder, inflated, -proud, and tyrannical, enjoying the unrequited labor of others, sets himself up against our Govern merit, and strikes at our institutions. Hall a million of their men have stricken at the'very foundations of our Government. • I won't say that Pennsylvania is innocent of all offence in bringing on this war. The Government of the United States belongs to mi. It is the Government of Pennsylvania, and slavery shall fall beneath, the majestic tread of that free Government. [Great applause.] .We never made tbe war ; they made it on our Government. The fidelity and loyalty of our people will consti tute one of the purest chapters in the history of freedom. I would that this political contest were waged as others ; I would that the Demo cratic party had declared in. favor of the prosoeu tion of the war. . _ When , I reflect upon the responsi bilities of my position I tremble.' And I spurn from my feet the 'mongrel curs who snap at them, and thank my. God that if my arguments `;and and en deavors can compass it, liberty shall live. 'I would go down to my grave to insure. that end. [Great enthusiasm,' The''Democratic party, at the Uan .Ettbuig Convention, abused Lincoln,they,ho • 4 noniti um with a 'sly w;uk%or twv.

Mr- Woodward is per fectly welcome to the Vallandiglison plank to the Democratic -platform. He refuted to vote that bread, medictuta, or necessaries might be given to the soldiers who defend the Government. I am charged- with hatching a conspiracy TO bring home soldiers to vote.

Judge Woodward says slavery is an incalculable blessing. I extremely doubt• it; for if it is so, we ought to have it in 'Penneylvania. lie says it is sanctioned by the Divinity. I doubt that theology. Ido not address one man or wo men who has failed to read the Sermon on the Mount, and as far as I understand • the divine teachings, you are to love your neighbor as yourself. The old -adage, That a fair day's work is worth a fair day's wages .is one of the foundations of our.Government. — h , rwish that could speak longer, but I am to speak twice today —once at Newtown end once at Bristol. [Cries 'of "Go on "go on!"] You can end the war in three ways : let the rebels lay, down their arms and obey the law. If they will not do that we can give up all that they claim ! And will you give up Lout mane, and Mississippi, and Kentucky, and Tennes see, and Missouri'? Fort Donelson, Vicksburg, and Port. Hudson 1 Will you call back Gilmore when his guns command Charleston'? No, no. If -I could put the question to all Pennsylvanians at once, that answer would go up in thunders. There is another way of peace=peace resulting from the active prosecution of the war: If you want a Governor who will not favor by thought, word, or deed, the prosecution of the war until rebellion is climbed. I am not your man. [Thunders of applause.] Then I must be your man. [Laughter and Applause.] I don't want a man to vote for me who is not loyal, who keeps men from our gallant army. I pity the man who is so fond of life as to desire to survive the destruction of his Govern ment' I cannot refrain from' expressing to this 'great multitude, whatever may be my fare at the coming elections, my thanks for the, kindnesses I have received from the people of this great State. I thank the ladies' tor their attendance upon thia oc casion; I know how delicate women- have gone to the hospitals, and there bound up the wounds of the disabled. Amid the thunders and carnage of battle, they have poured out Christian consolation. God bless the women of Pennsylvania ! and let us unite _with them in the cry : "Our Government now, our Government forever I" My friends, I wish you farewell. Governor Curtin pat down amid a hurricane of applause. The mute, attention with which he had been listened to by , the vast assemblage, save when the sentiments uttered strudk too fine a chord in their hearts to _pass by without loud acknowledg ments, was one of the best tributes that could be paid to an honest man. Governor Curtin was MC ceeded by Mr. J. W. Forney. • MR J. W. FORSZKVS SPEECH Mr. Forney was enthusiastically received, and spoke as follows: As my time is short. my friends, I can make but a short speech. lam here, not to perform a pritici pal part, but to fill up an interstice. I have wit nessed this; great demonstration with great plea sure. -The manner of the reception of the pre sent and next. Governer 'of Pennsylvania, re minded me of the stories I have read of the returning chieftain who had conquered an- in solent foe. Whilst I am not inclined to envy any man, yet, when I saw the reception accorded to one so surrounded and covered up with responsi bility, so assailed and misrepresented and traduced, as Governor Curtin, I confess' I did envy him for a minute. You yourselves understand what a posi tion a public man must occupy at such a time as thin. Our President himself sleeps upon no bed of roses. Now, when internal dissensions, raised by traitors who sympathize with a common enomy, rage, he must be a braveman who can desire to sit in the Presidential chair. Governor Ourtin's tease and immense responsibilities render his pod aaot he sought or,desired by any man who loves a life of eace. I have been dieprisen 6u4.6 any man could raise a hand against him ; and when I saw the reception you accorded him to-day, I felt a pride and -a pleasure in the exhibition. I had the pleasure of shaking hands with some hundred good men who- mistook me for Governor Curtin and called me - Andy! [Laughter and applause.]- Ido not believe that the masa of the Democratic party is disloyal; I believe that they-stick to that organiza tion from honest purposes. The- happiest men I • have met are those in the Union oreanization ;-the most unhappy, those inthe Deincicratic association the honest men I refer to and - not the' leader& I daiw between - the leaders and 'muses Of the De. mocratic party a wide 'and marked distinction. To those masses I would au a few welds. Democracy, as I understand it, is a progressive ,and aggressive principle ; it has allowed the existence of slavery in the Union, because it believed that the existence of slavery was co-existent with the Union. I was a ra-;. dical Democrat. When I found• that slavery had taken up arms against the Government, I found that my path was to be made—a hard path, indeed, through prejudice and passion -,and I made it. That party wag; never intended to be a davery party,and, no matter what they may do, on the thirteenth of Ooto ber, their duty and principle into do everything to extinguish slavery, to annihilate the' rebellion. I - know what prejudices of party are. This is no time to rtferlo past-views, opinions, andprejudices. The true, and. confident friends of the Government should make strong the true and conslitent man. This is a struggle for all time—not for to-day or to morrow, or next year, but for all coming years. Momentous issues await us when this warfare Is concluded. If we are to win the coming cam paign, we are to win by the votes of the loyal Democracy. I will not dwell upon Mr. Justice' Woodward. I regard his fate as decided. He looked to be the chief justice of this State, but the chief justice of the ballot box—a chief justice from which there is no appeal—has decided to the contrary. [Applause.] He is the only public man of whom I have ever heard in this country who proposes to dis franchise every foreigner-who comes from the old world to locate in the new. How does he get out of this blasting .record's Not by a frank recantation, but by a subterfuge. He has proclaimed that the judiciary should be entirely menarate from pOlitics, and because that was his option, he in• tended to abstain from all discussion on the subject, and yet he is the candidate of the party that sym pathize with treason. He has attempted to deny that he is in earnest sympathy with Die rebellion. Outside of Jeff Davis and S. O. Calhoun, there has never been an sincere a nullifier as Justice Wood isard. He believed it to be the duty of Pennsyl vania to go with the South. These are things which cannot be answered. -A few days ago the Hon. Lemuel Todd, of Darlisle, stated that Judge Hale declared that Justice Woodward had expressed opinions in favor of Secession. Justice Woodward' replies : " I know no Judge Hall," and states his antagonism to Secession, and the , cmalignant fanaticism which originated it." By a mistake of the printers. (for printer', like other people, sometimes make mistakes,) Hall was print ed instead of Hale; and under this miserable sub terfuge, Judge Woodward attempts to shield him self. As I have , but a few moments to remain, I now introduce to you Mr. Depew, of New York. EPEROW OP 1!E. CHAUNCEY" 31. DEPEW. As Col. Forney has well said, in introducing me to you, -I have felt a deep interest in the election in Pennsylvania. I felt, as I stood within the tall shadow 'of -Andrew G. Curtin; the soldier's friend, the influence already felt from the golden ahorea of California to the granite coasts of Maine, is a mighty influence, and was - unmistakably apparent at the time of that great call which placed men on one aide or on the other. The great, pillars of the Union resting on the hills of Maine on one side, and the shores of the Pacific on the 'other, are such as will uphold that mighty fabric .either against the foreign or the internal foe.i„ I felt, when I saw ;this meeting to-day, that the election was already de cided, and that the speech Judge Moodward was to make after the election would never be made—for the dead speak not I [Laughter and applause.] Jud,ge Woodward has declared that slavery was divinely sanctioned. Colonel Forney has -well said that this is a battle between aristocracy and democracy; else why is it that - - the English aristocracy and the French;- Emperor seem to slmpathize with the South t In what does rebellion exist-to-day? In their armed men. Behind them are disaffection and latent Unionism. Mr. Justice Woodward says he is in favor of peace. -So am I ; so is every man. But the peace we are in favor of is the peace which will perpetuate the honor of the Ucion ; not that diegracelul peace .which broUght about by disso lution. I believe in the good old.fashioned doctrine that this country is not large enough for two eon federacies, and that the Union must extend as -far down as the Gulf of Mexico. We want no conciliation which will bear within the seeds of future discord. We want it so that there shall be no future revolution like that.which now agitates the nation. -'Have you seen a single Coppef headin Pennsylvania who has praieed-a single act of this Administration? These people find fault with the proclamation of freedom, the confiscation act, the suspension ;of the habeas corpus, and. a thousand other things. ' When the President proclaimed freedom to the slaves; they said that ought not to . be done, because it raised in surrections in' the South. .They say when the North takes to fight for ..the . the same hu man implements which the South , employs to " right against it, that it is violating a sa cred institution. Did =the' Democratic Con vention which. assembled at Harrisburg, and nominated Judge Woodward, have a single act or resolution in favor of all they should be in favor of 7 One word more, and I have finished: We, in the State of- New "Fork have looked to the administra tion of Gov., Curtin with admiration 'and pride. How, many, men has GO, Seyniour sent forth? Some two or three thousand' sums up them all. For what was the riot got up lait for the purpose of help ing the rebellion by causing a counter revoluticiri in the Northern States? When Gov. Curtin spoke to you, he remarked that he inighthave perhaps but a short time :to live. May he live long, and may his career in the future correspond with that of the plat. He said that both he and Judge Woodward would some day have to go to their last account. A future generation will decide between the careers - of both these men. The speaker closed with a glo ins tribute to Gov. Ctutin. Gen. Richard Busteed Divide a few brief and tel ling remarks, in sentences ,- remarkable for ornate diction and emphatic delivery. Col. R. Stockett Mathews, of Baltimore, and Hon. S. H. Hammond, who concluded his address of the morning, delivered . the closing speeches of the Doyleatown Union iMeef leg. DISPERSION OS .THE CILOWD The crowd then began to disperse, some to visit Newton and Bristol, some to catch the train to Phi ladelphia. Governor Curtin left the grounds at about three o'clock in the afternoon, and was en thusiastically cheered. The avenues finally began, to thin, and the crowd and suffocation to grow less. But in the memories of all was left a lasting impres sion of the might - and influence of that earnest hearted meeting, and of the good heart of the good Governor who had addressed it.: . BIEIWEEN DOYzazwiows AND PHILADELPHIA. • A. fair sky hung over the - close of a most fair day. Everything at Doylestown passed off in themost satisfactory manner. After, the,excitement of •thq day, everybody who had participated in it felt alive to the calm albeit sombre beauty of the autumn woods and fields. The meeting which took place' yesterday is food for bright hope andcaim reflection. It augurs for good. It was a good thing In itself, and the masses who attended it felt it to.be so. The eloquent appeals which were made were unanimously responded to, and the glowing words which fell from truthful, loyal-lips are such as cannot be forgotten . by any, young or old, who heard them. The pageantry which conducted Governor Curtin to the Doylestown court house, the ladies who cheered him, and the men who 'inwardly as well as, outwardly applauded him, all hear Witness tolhe truth and the triumph of that truth which he as; • sated. - While not a solitary incident occurred to, mar the progress of the Doylestown Union meet, ing, everything arm conducted that aouriegy and regularity whian is the othipring of all bOild JO. elety. It was a meeting which expressed some of the purest sympathies of some of the beet intiattl• tans of the State of Pennsylvania. Man Meeting at Rising Sun. Last evening a large and enthusiastic gathering of the Union men of the Twenty.flrat and Twenty. fifth wards was held at Rising Sun, Broad and Ger mantown reed. The meeting was organized by the selection of Thomas Orayton, Del, as president. Speeches were delivered by 001. Wm, F. Small, Dr. A. K. Smith, Wm, L. Dennis, and others. Hon. Henry D. Moore made a 'stirring and .- patriotic 'petal, which was listened to with the utmost at tention. Be congratulated hie hearers upon the flattering_ prospects of the campaign. The soldiers were victorious in the field, and their loyal friends of the North will achieve victories of equal im portance in lice coming election. The clouds of our national horizon were fringed with a silver lining, and there was no cause for despondency or despair. He had never, since the breaking out of the re bellion, faltered for one moment in his con viction that the right - would yet prosper, and victory perch upon our banners. His heart was overflowing with gratitude when he beheld the great efforts put forth by the loyal people to over come the designs of the rebel enemy.' It- should be a matter of pride to every Ameriean to realize that this immense war has been thus far carried through with no assistance from foreign Powers. This Go vernment hoe been enabled by the patriotism and loyalty of its own citizens to expend, for the pur pose of crushing the rebellion, an amount of trea sure none of which was obtained outside our own boundaries. When people will make such mod flcee in behalf of their country; will willingly sur render for a time their own personal rights, that nothing may be wanting to promote the na tional welfare, what may we not predict for the future? Suoh a people will alwaya be true to their Government, and can always be relied upon' for aid in the day of disaster. Such a Union as ours was not born to die. It will outlive all its enemies, and from the present perils, will soon arise glorious and free, the proudest nation of the earth. To this end, all loyal men are required to act toga= then" By uniting new, and throwing aside for a while the political distinctions by which we were distinguished in the more peaceful days of the Re public, looking singly to the good of our beloved ,Union, the cause will triumph beyond the mostsan guine wishes of the patriot. Mr. Moore warmly,eu logized the character of Governor Curtin, and pre dicted his election bye large majority. The meeting dispersed at a late hour, with much enthusiasm. The Speech of Mr. Justice Woodward at Bellefonte. MILLEFONTE 3 Oat. 3, 1663 To the Editor of The Press : Bin t I herewith forward you Judge Woodward's speech, delivered this afternoon .at a mass meeting of the Copperheads of this county. It was so gene rally understood that he would -not speak, that no arrangements were made for reporting him on the spot. This evening the regret was so universally exprested that it was notreported verbatim et lite ratum, that I concluded to produce it just as he de. livered it. It has been submitted to several gentle men, and pronounced exact. I am, sir, yours respectfully, ' A. C. TONNER MR. WOODWARD'S SPEECH. LADIII9 AND GEZiTLIMSSEN lam extremely glad to meet the honest yeomanry of Centre county, and am sorry that I cannot address you for two reasons : Illy voice is very weak and worn out by the fatigues of travel over a road I have long been ac customed to -travel in coming to this town. I am here only to speak and shake hands with the ladies and gentlemen who have come here to speak and shake hands with me, and not to make .a speech. The Convention that nominated me, which met at Harrisburg on the 17th June last, did so without any action upon my part, and, indeed, undesired by me. The committee from. that Convention that waited upon me, and informed me of my nomination, re quested me not to resign my judicial position; from which I 'inferred that I was desired not to make speeches or otherwise enter into the coming cam= paign. I have thus far consulted their wishes, and desiring to remain at home, have ao done, except in a few instances, when the pressure of invitation made the exceptions. I am here, therefore, only to see you, and, as you know from ten years' °tibial life among you, that during that time I never made political speeches, or in anywise meddled with po litica. Whilst I cknnot make a speech for reasons given, and do not wh to discuss the questions, yet I will define or merely state the issues, - which cannot be regarded as making a speech. The only question before the people for discussion this fall is whether the executive officials now in power shall be con tinued; or whether the people desire a change. So far as my observation among the people-has been, lam of the opinion that the people of the whole country are in f4vor of the Union, and only differ use means for perpetuating I again say, that it is not my intention to discuss the inures, as there are gentlemen here to do this, mush more able so to do than myself. I merely state the issues, whether the present adminis trative functionaries 'shall be continued in power or whether there shall be a change.. I have no pledgesto make; but, if elected; I shall so adminia. ter the Goveinilent as to do the greatest good to the greatest niunber. Short of this I could not do. ' In this State I was born, raised, and have always lived, and am now, too old a man to prove recreant to the trusts which you have here tofore reposed in me. If elected, I shall perform the duties with that ability which God and nature have giverkme, and has marked my past life. But,, if defeated, no one will acquiesce, and submit to the will of the majority, more cordially than I. Schuylkill County. .AsELLEND, October 4, 1863. To the Editor of The Press: Sin : You are fully aware that in Schuylkill county the Democrats have a large majority of voters, and that this part of ft may well be called their headquarters. Yet, last Saturday evening, although the most strenuous alerts were made to call forth their whole strength, and although popu lar and able speakers were procured for, the orca, sion, large bonfires built, eta., the meeting was in significant; and, before the last speaker had finished, the crowd had dwindled down to some thirty or forty persons in the immediate vicinity of the speakers stand. Indeed, there was not the tenth part of the people in town; on last Saturday evening, as the great cir cus of Gardner Z. Henuniers had called out only two weeks previous. - In regard to the speaking, I may say that it was the old cry over and over again : "We have no longer free.. dom of she press, freedom of speech, or trial by jury.' , The great Vallandighara was extolled, and it was said that he dared to be a freeman, and had suffered as all martyrs of the kind from time imme• mortal. But not one noble or sublime sentiment was uttered. Indeed, the speakers had imbued themselves with the idea that they were addressing an audience ignorant and uneducated. Shame on a party that has such contempt for its supporters, and believes that the only way to arouse their energies is to excite their passions, instead of appealing to their reason. A Democratic Defeat Cause tor Rebellion. RRIIMFIELDVILLE, Berks co., Pa., Oct. 6, 1863. To the Editor of The. Press : Sm : Mr. J. Glancy Jones, Buchanan's Minister to Austria, in a speech to the Democracy, in mass meeting assembled, at the "Yellow House, Amity township, Berks county, Saturday, October 3d, used these words : "If we cannot carry the election this fall, then there is nothing left us but rebellion." Respectfully yours, E. O. KITORIN, Assistant Surgeon 2lat Pa. Cavalry To the Editor of The Prose: SIR: Judge Woodward was at Lewisburg, Pa., on Thursday evening last. William H. Witte and a mlmber of other gentlemen from Philadelphia were present in a parlor. There happened to be one or two National Union men present. - .Judge Woodward was asked when he had, last seen General McClellan? Tie replied, "Yesterday." "What is he going to do for you?" "He promised to canvass the military hospitals and camps for me," replied Woodward. - Respectfully yours, F. Myron, Oct. 6,'1863..: A Voice from the Army. To the Editor of.

ReSoloed, That we look .upon any man Who op poses the war policy of the 'Administration, or who counsels resistance to the draft, as a traitoCto his country ; and we regard any and all attempts to em barrass the Administration in its efforts to crush the rebellion, or to impair the efficiency of our soldiers, as a cowardly insult to the army and to the sacred memory of our brave comrades, whose lives have been 'yielded a willing sacrifice in defence of our common rights, which we may feel called upon to resent when - released from our present obligations to the Government.

Its territory is mainly embraced in the city limits, its only two. churches beyond being the one in this town, and that in Great Valley, in this county. Pl.cenixvil/c is a neat and advancing place. The new and handsome church Is a credit to the town. We trust that the inhabitants will. giye a good ex pression of their loyalty on Tuesday next.

TETE 134RMAN OPERA.—We ate informed by a special despatch that the German Opera, under Herr Carl Anschutz, opened last evening in Hiltimore with immense mimeses. Hundreds had been unable to gain admittance. The new prim% donna and tenor have achieved quite a triumph. madame Frederica is pronouneed an exquisite actress and singer, and Herr Habdman the finest German voice heard for Many years. COM:MILT HALL.—The Little Folks exhibiting here, under care of .Messrs. Ellinger and Newcomb, are actual wonders. They go to their soirks in the smallest of carriages, drawn by goat ponies, and create quite as much sensation as their slightly tallerand more experienced friend, General Thumb. These little people are gentlemanly, lady-like, and bright. Their entertainment is efficiently assisted by the vocalism of. Miss Ellinger and Mr. Murphy, and Mr. Harrison, who amuses his audience with comic and extemporaneous songs.

[FOR ADDITIONAL OITY NEWS; BEE FOURTH PAGE.] HOMICIDE GASE.—The. o:Toner, yester day afternoon, held an inquest on the body of a man named Christian Young, who was pushed down stairs at house 707 South Sixth street, on iffonday afternoon, from the effects of which he died. It seems that a party of bakers had a dance at the house on Monday afternoon; Peter Graeff, Edward blue/Tr, and Jacob Bower were there. From the evidence given by these men, it seems that Young, who was intoxicated, attempted to go up stairs to the room where the dancing was going on. Jacob Kircher said he should not go up stairs. , Young in sisted on it, and attempted to go; Kircher took hold of biro, and Young caught the door and held on. A struggle ensued, which ended in Kircher breaking the hold of Young, and pitching him down stairs. Young's skull was fractured in consequence, and he died in an hour. Dr. Sharpleigh made a poat-mor tem examination of the deceased. A considerable quantity of clotted blood was found upon the brain. The jury rendered a - verdict that the deceased came to his death from compression of the brain, pro duced in consequence of being pushed down stairs by Jacob Kircher. THE NATIONAL FINANCES.—The sub- Ectiption agent reports the sale of $l-331,650 five twenties on Tuesday. The deliveries of bonds are being made to the 3d inst. These extraordinary sales are made to the people at large, as well as to individuals about forming national banking asso• Mations. The first edition of Mr. Cooke's pam phlet, How to Organize a National Bank, .is already exhausted. The second edition will be ready for delivery in a few days. HELD TO BAIL,-The case of McDebree, who had several hearings before United States Oom missioner Smith, on the charge of falsely measuring four pieces of leather at the United States Arsenal, yesterday entered bail to answer. It is but just to say that the defendant avers he has an excellent de fence, and that he will be able to establish his inno cence on the day of trial. EXPLOSION OP A STEAM BOILER.—About 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the boiler at Messrs. Morgan & Orr's machine shop, on Callowhill street, above Twelfth, exploded. The head of the boiler 'blew out. The building was slightly damaged. person was injured. AWARD OF CONTRACT. —The Committee on Property roet yesterday afternoon and awarded the contract to Frederick Sutterlee for a aupply of coal at the rate of $7.24 per ton for one hundred tone, for the public offices. Gold, t itice it sold at 122, ha., with the excePtion Of a few , Slight reactions, steadily advanted. Ar. , m • • - apps_rently, .1i been 'Thigh Various )umore re volved, as in turn they rose and disapPeffred, to be re placed by others of a still more threatening or disastrous nature. Bat rumor is at fault. It required several im. portant victories and good news from abroad to cause a decline in .gold of twenty per cent., while one partial repulse and equally if not more favorable news from abroad, causes an advance of over twenty per cent. There is only one mode of explaining this, and that is by suppoking that these is another motive at work, an undercurrent that, =Been, moves reeistleesly despite the ripe on the surface. It iswily the businees of the Government to attract wealth to the country.. The Government operates through its officers, the officere operate by means of ability,--sa gacity, and opportunity, and in proportion as these are favorable to existing or coming circumstances will the Adminitration be successful. Ilene is an issue preseat ed to the Secretary of the Treasury. If he allows'gold to appreciate; the market value of his loans may stiffer, his currency may, through unnecessary alarm, become unpoimlar, and though the likelihood is remote, Go vernment se cm Mee may generally decline; on the oth er hand, the increased value of foreign exchange gives an increased stimulus and value to exports, and lessons the importations by compelling higher prices for fo reign goods. Now; there were some reasons for supposing that Mr. Chase assisted in depressing the price of gold, by selling large amounts, while - it was on the decline, from the lack of epeculation. and.natural causes, and when it touched a fignie belOw 120, why did he not keep it there ? , The reason is apparent; as sold declined exportations fell off, and the lower gold fell the less became the ex portations. This necessitated the keeping and carrying of much heavier quantities of breathtuffe than we needed here. Growers were disappointed, and instead of dis posing of their produCt and having the cash, they were holding their stock at mach lower prices than they were led to believe they would get for it. In fact, we were holding immense sums of money in. grain, toe growth of which bad been stimulated by the higher prices of last season. Mr Chase, no doubt, sees thin, and it will not do to have the country in ill humor with him, so he allows the gold market to take its natural source, as sisted by speculators and alarmists. Gold advances, and when it reaches a certain figure tusitkreat grain crops of the will begin to move Bast, and. transportation to Europe will again be in great demand. The country will feel releved, and Mr. Chase will accomplish not only a relief to the farmers, but a stroke of policy of more than singular power. It increases his popularity and that of his plans. He has put money in the parses of the agri cultural class; they -respond by upholding his loans.
