•? AMITIES COMMUNICATION from '• X," giving addl
tonal proof of the Joarnai'a "disloyalty" and " treason"
during the Mexican War, is unavoidably postponed until
next week.
glir Space did not allow us to say, last week,
that we will cheerfully comply with the sugges
tion of our correspondent "X," to re-publish
any article we have written during the present
rebellion, that the lourn al may select, side by
side • with its own anti-administration tirades,
published during the Mexican War, provided the
editor of the .Tournal will agree to do the same.
It would not be at all out of the way, in these
days of proscription and terrorism, when the
brand of treason fa so freely stamped upon
Democrats, to let the people know bow far in
advance of the Democrats of the present day,
the "loyal" adherents of the Lincoln despotisai
were in their denunciations of the Administra
tion, during the war with Mexico.
GOTRILTIOR Cuarir's lISALTIL—In hie epecial
message to the Legislature, declining a no imi
nation for the Gubernatorial chair, Governor Cur
tin, declared that: " The labors which I have
necessarily undergone have already impaired my
health. I should have serious cause to apprehend
that a much longer continuance of them might
so break it down as to render me unable to ful
fill the duties of my position." Now, the Gov
ernor should not be permitted to go on at this
reckless rate. The grate has no right to olalut
any man's services at such a price as this ; and
if the Governor's friends have no regard for his
health, the people should have, and see to it that
he is not burdened with the crushing duties of
the Executive chair for another three years.
Governor Curtin must not be permitted to de
stroy himself by reckless patriotism; and a
merciful people should allow him to retire to the
peaceful shades of private life and place the
labors of the executive office upon a pair of
good broad shoulders such as Judge WOOD
WARD carries about with him.
GOOD Norunarzo . ss.—The Democrats of Cum
berland county have nominated our old friend
Hoary S. Ritter, Eoq„ for Treaeurer of that
county. Mr. Ritter is a native of Reading—a
son of the late Samuel Ritter, Esq.,—and one of
the staunchest Democrats that ever went out
from " Old Berks."
Ephraim Comma% Esq., editor of the Carlisle
Democrat, ie nominated for Recorder and Clerk
of the Courts of Cumberland county, on the
same ticket with Mr. Ritter. He deserves the
office, and we hope the whole Democratic ticket
will be ecumessfuL

THE NOMINATIONS
We place at the head of our paper, this morn
ing, the Ticket nominated on Tuesday last, by
the Democratic County Convention. It is com
posed of geed men and true Democrats, anti will
be triumphantly elected. The delicate and al
ways difficult task of selecting from a number of
candidates, of equal merit and capacity, and all
of Oho= were pressed by their respective
friends with an earnest desire for their success,
was, perhaps, pe well performed by the Conven
tion as the circumstances allowed ; and although
there are, among the aleappointed, as good and
worthy men as have been placed upon the ticket,
yet we think they will all admit that they were
fairly treated, and the cheerfulness with which
they have expressed their willingness to submit
to the decision of the Convention, is an evidence,
at least, that its choice was honestly made,
and with the beat intentions. Where all could
not be accommodated, some were bound to fail,
and it is no discredit. to any candidate to have
suffered a defeat, in a fair contest with his own
political friends. Among the successful this
year, ar6 not a few of the defeated of three
years ago, and so it will be three years hence, if
the postponed will "learn to labor and to wait."
The re-nomination of Messrs. POTIZIOES and
Klass to the Legislature, for a third year, is
the highest compliment that could possibly be
paid them, and an endorsement of their public
course which places it beyond the reach of crit
icism. The people will not fail to reward these
good and faithful servants with their united vote.
Mr. hintantea, the new candidate, is a gentle
man of intelligence, popular manners, and stead
fast Democratic principles. The experience he i
has had, of several years, as an officer in the
House of Representatives at Washington, Will
admirably qualify him for efficient and useful
service at Harrisburg.
Mr. Reims, our candidate for Prothonotary,
is a Democrat of the old school—honest, true
and steadfast ae the needle to the pole. kb was,
for many years, a resident of North Heidelberg
township, in which he exercised the duties of a
Justice of the Peace. •The estimation in which
he re held by the people of that motion of the
county, is the best recommendation as to his
character and fitness that could be desired. He
has waited long and patiently for " his turn,"
and now has received his reward.
Mr. THISWEOBTER, the nominee for Register,
is a well-known and highly esteemed citizen of
fitouchsburg, where he has performed the func
tions of a Magistrate for many yearn. He is a
consistent, active and influential Democrat, and
will bring to the duties of the Register's office
qualifieationwof the first order. He is an ex
salient penman, and equally conversant with the
German as with the English language.
Mr. LAIICKS, who has been nominated for Re
corder, is favorably known as the attentive and
efficient Clerk, who has transacted the chief
busineaa of the Recorder's office for the last
twelve or fifteen years. He has proved himself
faithful in the subordinate position, and has
richly earned the promotion to the higher and
more profitable place, that awaits him.
Mr. Cxoss, our candidate for Clerk of the
Orphans' Court, is a substantial farmer of Exe
ter, and a hard-working Democrat. No man
hap done more to sustain the party organization,
and keep its principles alive, than he; and if
faithful services of this kind constitute any
claim to office, he has richly earned the Bernina,
Lion. He is, besides, honest and capable, and
will discharge his public duties with the same
conscientiousness that marks all his dealings in
private life. •
Mr. ROLAND, who was nominated for the Quar
ter Sessions' office on the first ballot, is a true
representative of the Young Democracy. Ac
tive, ready, and vigilant, be has never been found
wanting, when called upon to serve his party.
In the old I .llounds' Ward," where be lives,
Frank is " a whole team," and throughout the
county he is known as one of our meat energetic
workers. lie will bring strength to the ticket,.
and assist, by his personal efforts, to swell it?
majority.
Mr. WEPRICH, who is nominated for Treas
urer, is one of the best farmers that lives in the
Heidelbergs. No man is better known, or more
W 0 9 1 111 14 poolor, 'IOW Dub, thou " Hoot
Davy." The people have tried him, with a
three years' term as County Commissioner, and
he served them well. They respect and trust
him, and will give him the keys of the County
Treasury with the comfortable assurance that
all will be as as it should be, under his adminis
tration.
Mr. 01/1., alit itiiiididtite fat Director of the
Poor, has filled that office for one term with hu
manity and fidelity. His renomination shows
that his services have been properly appreciated.
Esquire goes will make an excellent Auditor.
He is a correct accountant, a good penman, and
understands the business affairs of our county
thoroughly. We hope, at no distant day, to be
able to print his name in a higher place upon
the ticket.
Such is the ticket, as presented by the Con
vention. The resolutions are brief, but to the
point ; and the selection of Delegates to the next
State Convention, and of a Standing Commit
tee for the County, has been judiciously made.
We think the Convention has given general eat•
istaction, and we confidently look for a ratifica
tion of its proceedings, on the second Tuesday
of October, by the largest majority our county
has ever east.
L er IN AN EDITORIAL of the Jofirnal, publish
ed Feb. 28, 1863, Mr. Knabb boastingly ex—
claimed " that he was no Copperhead,' thank
God," during the Mexican War. Now suppose
the editorials, quoted last week by our corres
pondent "X." and published during the Mexi
can War by Mr. Bulb, were to appear in the
Gazette as original, with the substitution only of
the term " Abolitionists" for "Locofocos," and
the name of " Abraham Lincoln" for "James K.
Polk," would not the Journal instantly pitch into
the Gazette, as a " Traitor," " Tory," "Copper
head," &c.? Indeed it would, for Vallandigham
himself—whom the Abolitionists regard with far
more detestation than they do Jeff. Davie—nev
er said anything half io severe against the
present Administration, as were these Tournai
fulminations against the Administration qi p ro _

GOVERNOR CURTIN'S DISCLINATURE.—The Re
publican papers are all engaged in publishing
Goy. Curtin's speech of acceptance, recently
delivered to a meeting of his friends and depen
dents at Harrisburg. Would it not be a good idea
now for them to also publish his letter of dectina
tore, sent into the Legislature last winter, so
that the people can have an opportunity of see—
ing how mach reliance is to be placed in his
plighted word.
DEATH of MODEBT.—The Rebels report that
John S. Monk)+, their famous cavalry chief in
Virginia, died at Dranesville on Friday, of
Wounds received in a skirmish on the 24th of
July.

About 24 o'clock on Monday afternoon the
iron clads moved up tewards Sullivan Island,
taking a position abreast of Fort Moultrie, upon
which they opened fire.
Fort Moultrie replied, assisted by a battery on
Sullivan Isltnd ; also by Wegner and Gregg.
General Gillazere's batteriee kept up a fire on
Fort Wagner.
Fort Sumter was silent, but the rebel flag still
floated over the ruins.
The result of the attack on Fort Moultrie
was not known when the steamer left.
A person on board of the steamer Union,
states that Wagner has been silenced, and our
monitors passed by without paying any attention
to it while en route to attack Moultrie.
An ensign of the fleet, while on night day in
L boat had passed up to the city without dis
covering any appearance of obstructions, and
the prevailing impression was that our fleet
could pass up to Charleston by a dash.
FROM THE ARMY OF THE POTOMAC
The only important news from the Potomac
Army is, that on Wednesday General Kilpatrick,
with a field battery, supported by cavalry, sunk
the steamers Satellite and Reliance, which had
recently been captured by the rebels at the mouth
of the Rappahannock, at a point on the river
twelve miles belay Frailericksburip
Washington is very much excited at the present
time, in consequence of rumors being afloat of
Ranking movements by Lee's army and extensive
demonstrations by the rebel cavalry. A large
number of the latter had recently appeared at
Matthew's, Cockpit and Ship Points along the
Potomac, and a considerable force of rebels were
said to be north of the Rappahannock, below
Fredericksburg. If this be true there is danger
9f a second blockade of the Potomac river.

requested to address the nett meeting.
It was agreed to adjourn to meet again at the
Public house of Peter Marquart, on the 12th of
September, at 7 P. M., for the purpose of con
sidering the beet means of promoting the pros
perity of our country through the agency of the
Democratic Party. .
ear THE JOURNAL of week before last copied,
at second-hand, a few garbled and mutilated ex
tracts from Judge WOODWARD'S speech at the
Pitilodelphis Union Meeting in 1880, and under
took to prove from them, (to its own satisfaction,
no doubt) that "he is a double-dyed traitor, and
not fit to live in a free and loyal State." This
sort of argument is precisely like that of the
infidel, who proved his atheism from the Bible,
by quoting the words "no God " from the well
known eentem of the Psalter:—" The fool has
said in his heart, there is no God." Whether it
is just the style of argument that an honest and
honorable editor should employ in addressing
intelligent readers, we leave for taw% to decide.
Perhaps the Journal, which, more than any
other paper we know, acts upon the infamous
sentiment that " all's fair in politics," may think
The speech in question was delivered before a
meeting composed of men of all parties, assemb
led in Independence Square, at the cell of a
Republican Mayor. No one then dreamed that
its distinguished author entertained treasonable
opinions; on the contrary, his epee.* was uni
versally commended for its truly patriotic, con
servative, and national spirit. That a large por-
don of the people of Pennsylvania still approve
its sentiments, is shown by the fact that it has
been recently re-published in all the Demeora—
tic journals of the State, anti has met with the
most favorable reception. Considering that it
would have been very easy for the Journal to ob
tain an authentic copy of the speech, it is sin
gular that our neighbor should have been con-
Lent to take these meagre and fragmentary ex
tracts uponthe authority of the Bucks County
Intellipencer, " a high-toned paper," it may be,
but one of the most violently partisan in the
State. Aft an act of simple jcstioik, we now call
upon
,the :journal to publish—not the whole
speech, that would be a greater stretch of fair
ness than we dare hope for, but—the unmedia
ted paragraphs from which the words are picked
to make Judge WOODWARD say just what he never
did say. Oise us tin) truth, the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth," and we shall fear
no criticism.
DRAFTED /11.6/A ENTITLED TO BOUNTY.—A Elea
Lion in the act (the Draft act) " for enrolling and
calling out the national forces," has, strangely
enough, escaped attention. It is the one entit—
ling those drafted to advance pay and to bounty.
Section 11 reads as follows :

persons thus enrolled shall be subject for two
years after the first day of July succeeding the

into service shall be placed on the same footing,

during the war, including advance pay and bounty,
as now provided by law.

that stood as sentinels about the Provost Marshal's aloe,
having found nothing to do beyond keeping the passage
along the street clear. The drawing, ae we have before
slated, was open, and to all appearance, fair and impartial;
and the Provost Marshal and his officers afforded every
proper facility to the Committee that ,were invited to seats
upon the platform, to Satisfy themselves that all the pro.
endings were regular and lawful. The names of the per
sons subject to the draft, were carefully counted by the
Committee before and after the drawing, and the manner
in which they' were drawn from the wheel, (by a blind

that—
"A great deal is said about the President's
Emancipation Proclamation. My idea of it is,
that this war would have been prosecuted •more
successfully if the President had not said any
thing about the negro."
