was placed opposite, and at ten paces from each

time, asking, I suppose, the name of their fami

sabre stroke—for the first platoon to fire, was
given, and Davis fell over backward, as it seemed
to us killed instantly. At the repetition of the
signal, the second platoon tired, and Smith, 'who
had stood immovable, although he had beard his

Davis dead. They were finished by the Adju

EXAMINE YOUR TICKETS
When a bunter wants to make a sure shot, he
first examines the priming of his gun, before he
pulls the trigger. So let every Democratic voter
first examine his ticket before he presents it at
the ballot-box. The opposition will donbtless
resort to their usual trick of attempting to im
pose on unsuspecting Democrats by qtorioos
ticket*. In this county, particularly, knowing
they have no hope of electing a single man on
their County Ticket, they will confine all their
efforts to making votes for Conrnt, and will
flood the county pith Democratic Tickets having
CURTIN'S name printed on them in place of
WooDwann's. Aware of this fraud! Sec that
your ticket is genuine, front top to bottom,
and that it corresponds exactly to the one we
print below. Ail others are ...parlous Remem
ber, that the name of our candidate for Supreme
Judge, WALTER 11. L otrniit, must be cut off and
voted separately. All the other candidates, from
GEORGE W. WOODWARD down to ANDREW KURR,
arc voted for together, on the same ticket, with

DEMOCRATS, BEWARE!
Democrats, beware of false stories just on the
eve of election day. The abolitiohisto, feeling
that their cause is hopeless, are betaking them
selves to the usual refuge of desperate men, and
circulating falsehoods with the most utter reck
lessness. As the election day approaches, they
will grow more reckless, and the best thing for
Democrats to do, is to turn a deaf ear to all their
opponents say. Among other stories with which
they strive to canoed their sinking hopes, is one
that prominent Democruts arc deserting Woou•
WARD and coming over to CITRTIX. They have
had the shamefacedness to say that the vener
able Judge Wtmows, of Pittsburgh, and Ex. Vice
President DALLAS, of Philadelphis, were of this
number of deserters. We assure you, Democrats,
there ie not one word of truth in this story.
Judge Wiroznis was President of the great De
mocratic Mass Meeting at Pittsburgh, last Wed
nesday, and Mr. DALLAS remains, what he has
been his life long, an unwavering Democrat.
Both will support Woonwann and Lamm: with
all their strength.
KEEP COOL
DEMOCRATS, SEEP COOL on ELECTION
DAY. The canvass has been an exciting one;
you have been abused, browbeaten and vilified
RS freemen never were before, and efforts will
doubtless be made by the dependents of arbitrary
power, to provoke you to controversy and violence,
in order that they may have s pretext for using
military force to prevent a free and fair election.

but quietly exercise the right, that. belongs to you,.
and perform the duty that rests upon you. VOTE
YOURSELF, AND THEN SEE THAT EyERY
DEMOCRATIC VOTER IN YOUR DISTRICT

EVERY VOTE FOR WOODWARD,
On Tuesday next, is a vote for the CONSTI
TUTIONAL RIGHTS OF WHITE 1 3N, for
CIVIL LIBERTY, for an HONEST AMIN'S
TRILTION OF THE GOVERNMENT, and for the
RESTORATION OF THE UNIOIv, us the Patri
ots of the Revolution made it.
Jons Ronntim—ln a speech at Minding,
on Saturday evening last, the lion. James Pol—
lock, Director of the D. S. Mint, asserted that
Hon. John Robbins, of this city, had resolved to
vote for Governor Curtin, and to use his influ
ence with the six hundred men in hie employ to
induce them to do likewise. Two errors in this
Statement deserve notice. First, Mr. Robbins
will vote for Judge Woodward. Secondly, He
has not been in business for some years, and has
no six hundred men in hia employ to influence
for or against Governor Curtin. These facts
must have been—or ought to have been—per
fectly well known to the Hon. James, and yet,
the next afternoon he, allreesed a Sunday School
meeting. A nice member of the V. M. C. A. is
the Honorable A/c, Oct. 7.
Mr' AM/ALUM LINCOLN receives twat?, five
thousand dollars a year, salary, no President of
the United States. Some time ago it was an
nounced in the Abolition journals that ho bad
not drawn his pay for the last year, but intended
to let it roman, for the present, in the treasury.
The object of this financial scheme, no doubt, is
to - wait until he can draw it in gold. The Abo
litionists are now urging the propriety of raisiny
his salary. The expenses of the Government are
nearly two millions of dollars per day, and yet the
eMellitical gentlemen at Washington are anxious
to increase that sum and add more taxation to
the heavy burthens of the prople.
A TRUTII THAT Eva FREEMAN SHOULD PON
DER :—ile who would make use of force
, to pre
vent freedom of election is a traitor to all the
principles of civil liberty. To accomplish a
temporary object he would invoke a power which
would destroy not only the liberties of his fel
low-citizens, but eventually his own.

N'CLELLAN'S FRIENDS PUNISHED!
A new feature of Administration malignity to
wards General MCCLELLAN has just been made
known. Some time since, it appears, a subscrip
tion was started among the soldiers of the Army
of the Potomac, for the purchase of some suita
ble testimonial to General 'MeVLeta.An. The
proposal met with uuexpeeted approbation, and
corps and division commanders, without excep
tion, favored the projcot, many of them heading
the lists with munificent sums. All contribu
tions were to be voluntary, and it was found ne
cessary to limit the amount given by privates,
lest more money Should be raised than could be
properly disposed of. Twelve thousand dollars
were raised in a single corps. Every member
of Gen. Means's staff, except one, contributed,
the General himself setting the example; when,
all of a sudden, an order was received from Wash
ington to diecontinue the collection and refund the
money. The mstortishmcnt of the officers and
men was only equaled by their chagrin, nearly
every officer of note in the army having been
Previously permitted toreceive testimonials. The
troops were at a loss to account for this unex
peeled proceeding, until the malignity which
promptedne measure was betrayed in the treat
ment of officers who interested themselves in the
movement. Colonel DAVIN, Assistant Inspector
General on the staff of General Metne, a class
mate and intimate friend of General MCCLELLAN,
who took the subscription list around among the
officers at headquarters, has been reduced to the
rank of Major, and ordered to Santa Fe. Other
officers are under the ban, while the troops, mor
tified and indignant, pocket their contributions
and watt for a more convenient season. That
season will surely come. Paltry persecution
like this will recoil upon the heads of the dos
tards who are guilty of it ; and the American
people themselves wi:l do justice to McCiAntads,
in spite of the envious malice with which the in
capables and imbeciles now at the head of tafairs
seek to crush him.
MORE PROSCRIPTION
We lenin that on Saturday last Dr. John 11.
B. McClellan was removed from the position be
held at the Chestnut Hill Hospital, the duties of
which he diceharged for some lime past with
great ability and entire satisfaction. This act
was the work of CURTIN'S friends in this city.—
The cause of it was simply because he is the brother
of Gnottou B. ikloaaLLAN. On Thursday last
they went in company to the hospital, and the
soldiers manifested the most intense enthusiasm
and delight at once more seeing their old and
much loved commander. No public man has
ever met with such vile persecution as General
MCCLELLAN' has received from CURTIN and his
followers, and now they have increased the
measure of their tifamy by extending their pecan
tuition to his brother. Let the soldiers who fought
with MCCLELLAN, and shared with him the dan•
gers of the battle field, remember ANDuraw CI.

it was With considerable di eioulty the pupils of the School,
who entered the Church 1/1 procpsgen, could make their
way 10 the scats reserved for them. Most of tlen 0f too
etertier hex were lieCosidtated to yield their places to the
continuer. strierm of ladies; and large numbers of both
sexes wide compelled to retire, from the total inadequacy
of the building, commodlotta though it ie, for their itUCelli•
laudation.
'rho eppearance of the platform erected for the purpose ,
was beautiful and imposing;— the lady graduates arrayed
in white—the prtwenco, lit addition to the regular in•
°tractors of the School, of many of our leading citizens,
among whom we noticed the President and Aesneiste Jed
gas of our Court—the Presideut and ntembers of the Board
of Control, and several of our leading clergymen—and the
lino display of holiquete of the choicest dowers—all tended
to give happy effect to the interesting exorcises of the even
ing.
Amid the pealing notoe of the organ, the graduates and
scholar. took their seats, after which, according to pro
gramme, the Commencement opened with an affecting and
appropriate prayer by the Rev. F. A. M. Keller, Pastor of
the Church. J. S. Richards, Coq., President of the Board
of Controllers, followed in an opening addreos, iu which
he reviewed the progress of the Schools of Reading for the
past twenty years. Mr. Richards'a long connection with
the rause of education iu our city, made hie remarks pe
culiarly if leresting. Rost in order, came the essays and
orations by the graduating sines. It is not our intention
to review their efforts In detail ; sonic° it to nay, they were
of more than ordinary excellence—quite equal to those of
any (miner occasion. 'Whore all acquitted themselves ao
handsomely, it is ditlicult to mention individnals without
appearing invidione; but we cannot refain from saying
that we were particularly pleased with the great beauty of
ought and expression in the array on "Unwritten Mo
ak," by BUNS Jones; the hopeful spirit of perseveranco
that found chute expression in Miss Gamier's " Ever On
ward," and with the impressive delivery and thoughtful
and: patriotic sentintente of Mr. Toneteo oration entitled
"The Torch of Liberty." The only thing to be regretted
in the whole proceedings was the difficulty which those of
us who were necessitated lo stand in the back-ground ex
perienced in bearing distinctly. After the essays of the
Clan, Judge Woodward proceeded to deliver the Diplomas ;
which duty he performed in the moot happy and pleasing
manner. His address to the class was plain, benttlifill and
appropriate.
At intervals during the proceedings the Mozart Musical
Society perforated some of their most delightful pieces,
which added immensely to the enjoyment of the occulon.
Among the pieces sung, the "Scow Storm " and "The Old
Mountain Tree," were surpassingly beautiful.
The exercises closed at II) o'clock, with the pronouncing
of the Benediction by Her. Mr. Keller, anll the vast con
course retired, evidently much gratified with the proceed
ings. Smelly may the Controllers of our District con
gratulate themselves upon the happy state of efficiency
which their Schools have attained.
ile"..Ex GOVERNOR FOLLOW:, the first Know-
Nothing Governor of Pennsylvania, made a epeeeh last
ilaturday night, trout the " Loyal League" Platform, in
favor of the le-election of his former K. K. Secretary, An
dy Curtin. The Ex-Governor used to have the reputation
of being a mild-spokes, amiable man; but, if we may
Judge from the style and temper of his Reading speech,
residence of several years in one of Mr. IncYenglee " capi
taM of Intelligence end refinement," as an office-bolder at
a fat salary. has greatly "demoralized" him. The speech
was, without exception, the afloat violent and abusive that
han Caine from the Leaguers' platform dungy; the present
zampaiga. Every act of the Lincoln administration was
landed to the skies, and all who dared to question the ex
pedlottcy or Justice of any of them, was furlously denounc
ed as a" copperhead traitor." Indeed, this epithet matte
up the greater part of the Ex-Governor's speech. Ile
scarcely spoke all: words without roaring out " copper
head traitor," and if his speech were Writhe/ oat, and those
words stricken from it, there would be almost nothing
left- Ent, perhaps we ten-4 exuu..o the amiable IN-Gov
