Everv Friend of the Union should see to it that he is not de ceived in his Ticket Compare it with the one attached to this notice, and if it is like it in every particular, put it through with a rush. ELECTORS. Morton McMichael, Thomas Cunningham. Robert P. King. G. Morrison Coates, Henry Bumm, William HMCern, Barton H. Jenks, Charles M. Runk, Robert Parke, William Taylor, John A. Hiestand, Richard B. Coryell, Edward Halhlay, Charles F. Read, Klias W. Hale, Charles H. Shriner, John Wister, David M'Conaughy, David W. Woods, Isaac Benson, John Pat ton', Samuel B. Dick, Everard Bierer, John P Penney, Ebenezer M'Junkin, John W. Blanchard. Served them Right. Ferry and Douohue, governor Sey mour's tools in the perpetration of the forgeries and frauds on the soldiers, have both been found guilty by the military commission which tried them, and sen for life. The President has approved the sentence.- Thc strongest efforts are now making, by the commission, sent on by Seymour, to have the bis rogue Col. North, the State agent released, or, at least to have his trial postponed until after the election. They have, however, been informed that neither can be done. The trial of Isorth will commence on Friday or Saturday. Store Bobbed. The Store belonging to Depue S. Mil ler, at Resacca, in Middle SinithScld township, 'was entered by burglers on on Thursday evening the 27th ult., and robbed of a lot of Dry Goods, &c. On entering the store on Friday morning things were found scattered around ouite loosely, but how much was taken is not certainly known. Mr. Miller thinks his loss will reach about 200. From the ap pearance of the room it is supposed that the thieves were interrupted in their la bors, as a number of articles, apparently laid out to be carried off, were found as the depredators left them. About twenty dollars in change, that had been left in the drawer, was also carried ou. it was evident that the burglers effected an en trance by prying open the door. It would be well now for everv one to look well mt after their door fastenings. J5SFrom the way fir iend Cotter of the Milford Herald, piles the agony on the new Board of Pike County Commission T3, we should judge that he had just suc ceeded in getting a shaky bill, about ch he was doubtful,through the Board in the tenor of the Herald's squib we ild judge that the kinds of Democra- n Pike are as numerous as the Itattle .es in that hitherto benighted region. " -icent, Dickersou, Esq., it says, rep :ti the Old Jackson Democracy; - , -private Hess, Esq., the Hickory Deui- a y, and low-private Van Etten, Esq., ti.K O.bralter Democracy. We presume, L. never, that the name "Copperhead I'fiiocracy." will embrace them all, and : rc iaioiy express their principles. i )' When you go to vote on Tuesday r it- lemember that the rebels parole y prisoner or war who promises, on return home, to vote for McClellan. i auieniber too, that if you. vote for Mc Clellan you vote for the caudidate of the Rebels. Tbii is true beyond a preadven iure. o The laan who stays at home on Tuesday, aud thus lets his vote slide, says :n substance that the rebels in arms de-V- - c success. The man who goes to the . ". jd votes for Mac Gunboat McClel - ; the same thin. Neither are !' i ends ot the Uuioa either "as. UW TT.as" or as it should be- . To the Polls. Voters of Itfonroe County remember your duty on Tuesday next. Your-country demands of you that'every uiaa.be at the polls,.and that he vctes as becomes every true friend of his country. There is but one issue to be decided on Tuesday next. "The -country its life or its death." - And as you vote so will you do your share towards deciding the question, x By voting for Lincoln Johnson, you will decide most-emphatically that your country shall be si coun try of peace and prosperity, aud that it shall be a happy home of freedom for your children, and your childrens chil dren down to the latest posterity. The whole lives of our candidates give as surance of this; aud their herculean la bors for the last three years and eight mouths attest it. Surrounded by circum stances which would havo appalled men of less strength of brain, and less powers ofendurcnccjthcy have proven themselves fully up to the occasions, aud have so grappled with dangers, that the light of freedom is beginning to shine most glo riously, and the end of war to loom up in the not far distance. It ueeds but the success of these true patriots to give re bellion its death blow, and to make it succomb to that mighty will of the truth ful North, which re echoing the language nf thn immortal Jackson, declares "the Union, it must and shall be preserved." From the first to the last have the efforts of honest old Abe been put forth for this end, and most ably has he been seconded by the heroic Johnson. By voting for McClellan and Pendle ton you will decide just as emphatically for the death of the Union, and for the erection of as many petty sovereignties as have for years cursed our neighbor Mex ico with her revolutions, and, at last, made her an empire at the beck of the tyrant of France. As commander-in-chief of our armies McClellau never showed a disposition to injure the rebels in arms; and as a Congressman Pendle ton always voted against both men and means to put down the rebellion. Both these men stand pledged in honor to stand by the Chicago Platform, which pronounces our four years of war a fail ure, aud promises an armistice, and a ces sation of hostilities, that in the peaceable conclave of a convention Rebels may be begged to cease their rebellion, and come back to us on such terms as the' may sec fit. The rebels have, time and again, as sured us that only ou terms of a rccogni tion of their Independence will they agree to peace: and with these same rebels are the candidates of the opposition pledged to treat, and to succeed in bringing about a peace. Voters judge for yourselves the end of such negociations, and then ask yourselves, whether you can either as Patriots, or as men deserving tht names and homes of freemen, vote for men so stripped of their glory and man hood. The leading men of the opposi- tion do not hesitate to say that they are for Peace at all hazzards, and for Union afterwards. Can you, voters, by support-in-; their candidate sustain them? Voters, again wc urge you to go to the Polls. Go early, and after you have vo ted see that every Union man in your township votes. If you know of one who lives too far from the polls to get there unless urged on, take your horse and wag on and bring him. llemcmber he is a brother Uniou man, and that his vote, like yours, will count one in the great ag gregate which goes to make for the life or for the death of the country. Don't in any event, let.it be said, after the election, that you knew this or that Uniou man who did not vote. Fill 3'our pocketi with ticketsso that you will be sure to have one for the fneud who comes without one. In short do your whole duty on Tuesday, and then you can lie down to rest at night, with the consciousness that you at least have proved yourself a worthy son of your country in her hour of need. Freemen, again wc say To the Polls on luesday next. 9S? Voters there was a time wheu the Democratic party supported the country. The Democratic party supports the coun rty yet. The Democratic party under Dix, Cochranc,Dickinson, Butler, Dougherty, Grant, Kelly, Sherman, Shannon, Sbcrri dan and a host of other patriots and States men of like character is to day gallantly fighting for its preservation and perman ency. There is a counterfeit Democracy, however, under McClellan and Jen. DaYi5, Reedaud Beauregard, Iugersoll and Early, De Young and McCausland, Vallandigham and Lee, Burnett and Longstrect and some others who are moving heaven and earth to destroy it. Be not deceived in to voting for the counterfeit while the genuine Democracy is so plainly before you. Be sure that you vote the tick et headed," Morton M'Michael," and you will be sure to have voted right. Infamous. It is assuredly a felony worthy of the desperation of the played-out democracy to forge ballots, presumptively voted by our absent soldiers. Abominable and despicable as are such frauds, it is cer tainly an unnecessary infamy to attach to those fictitious ballots the names of sol diers slaughtered during the war, through the incompetency of the man iu whose favor these votes were to be cast. It is avowedly the sublimity of impudence to make a murdered man vote, after death. .for his own murderer. Tell the whole truth, Squire, In the last Monroe Democrat, the Squire roads liisfarper subscribers a lec ture, on taxes. He 'tells 'them that thus far they "have" been more exempt from taxes than any classin the; community' but that a change will soon, come over the spirit of their dreams, in shape of the "direct tax on real estate imposed by act of Congress of 1862, which will reach them in lS65. After considerable pala ver about enormous taxes, duties, &c, he branches off on to what the rich man is doing to save his property from taxation by investing it in Government securities, which he says are exempt from taxation unot paying a dollar towards the support of the Government," and finally winds up by saying that foreign capitalists will come into our markets with theit Gold aud ultimately absorb a largo portion of our National debt now amounting to near ly $4,000,000,000, at 39 cents on the dol lar "dooming tho laboring man of this country to perpetual bondage mortgaging their houses, their blbod and their sin ews to the aristocratic nabob bond hold ers of Europe." The article from which wc draw flic above has none of the peculiar earmarks, which loom up so beautifully all through the Squire's lucubrations. But as it no doubt speaks his sentiments exactly, we are willing to give him credit for its pro duction. Butwhy, while you were about it, Squire, didu't you tell your farmer. readers the whole truth ? Why, mstead of attempting to scare them nearly to death by mere strips torn off not give them the whole cloth, so that they might judge for themselves, instead of takin your biassed judgment as to who was to blame for the evils of which you speak. If you have such a thing as a conscience about you, it would have been far more at ease over an open confession of all the truth, than it can possibly be over such an insinuation of lies as go to make up your appeal. Yon should have told them that the taxes, and duties, and impositions, from which you fear so much, were the crea tures of the unholy war with which our nnnntrv is cursed : and vou might have J v - told them that that war was brought a- bout by the Southern Democracy, wi whom you aud many of your farmer rea ders have all along acted in coucert, and for whose success you are now so earnest ly laboring. Thus much of truth would, most undoubtedly, have led you to tel more ; and by the time you had got thu far you would have been able to confess what was equally true that every dol lar of income from Government bonds, or security in any shape, by positive enact ment of law, pays a percentage of its val ue towards thesupportof the Government, the aggregate of which amounts to many millions of dollars, instead of telling them as you did, to the contrary. And further. By starting even with the truth, you might have been carried along by it, and induced to set our war debt down at less than $2,000,000,000, instead of at $4,000,000,000, as your first step in the wrong direction has made you do You would, too, have been enabled to tel them that the reason why thirty-niue cents in gold would buy a dollar in bonds, Aras because Belmontl the very head of the Northern Democracy, and his Jcwisl brcthern in Wall street, for the purpose 0 gain, and toassist their brother Democrats of the South, had brought all the wealth of the Rothschilds, and the Jewish mon ey-heads of Europe generally,, to depreci ate our currency, and thus destroy confi dence in, and weaken the Government Again : That same first step in the way of truth might have Jed you to tell your farmer readers that in providing for the tax on real estate Congress took care to guard the necessities of the poor man. It is not poverty that you find in palaces, or ou large Estates, or on ordinary farms, nor even yet in the dwellings ot our well to-do citizens, and yet it is only the real estate of such as these, who can afford it, that will be touched by tho tax law. The man of the simple cottage, and tho un pretending dwelling in short the labor ing man and the mechanic will have no more to do with tax on real Estate than he has with tax on income; and no one knows this fact better than doqs the Squire. And perhapi you would have told them, too, that all our war, and all our consequent debt, taxes and troubles were the result of Democratic misgovcrn- meut, and that the only way to redeem ourselves from them is to elect Lincoln & Johnson, aud by a still more vigorous prosecution of the war crush out rebellion. and set about securing for ourselves our wonted peace, security aud prosperity. See, Squire, what your first niistep in the way of truth has prevented you from doing, that otherwise you might have so nobly done. Freemen a vote for the Copper head ticket on Tuesday will be a vote to bring about the following deplorable re suits: The election of McClellan, Presi dent! Pendleton, Vice President! Val landigham, Secretary of War! An armis tice! hall of wages! No market for Pro duce! Pennsylvania a Border State! In vasion ! Civil War ! Anarchy ! Despotism ! Sy As a subsfitute for coffee no parched grain or vegetable ordinarily used as a substitute is at all equal to sorghum seed. And what is still more valuable to know, in the present scarcity or sugar, a small quantity or the svrun boiled with ground seed makes the coffee ubstitutcvery pleasaut and palatable, Cheating the Soldiers out of their Votes. ft has been a favorite charge of the Copperhead brawlers hereabouts; since, the late election, that -the Government cheated the Democratic soldiersf out. "of their right?!to vote. Theelectibn returns from the army give the lie to this charge most emphatically. The' Democratic sol diers did vote, 'and the only reason why Copperheadism did not reap the benefit of that vote, in shape of majorities, is that Democrats in the army think and feel a good deal as did the Democrats of "auld lang syne,"-T-that the only thing worth preserving at this time and voting for is the Government in its integrity. Cop: perhead tickets were in each camp and hospital in abundance, and the privilege of voting them was there, butDcmOcratic soldiers shunned them as they would a pestilence, and chose only such tickets as experience made sure to them would assist in crushing Southern rebellion, and north ern sympathisers with it. But what are we to think of these home JosephSurfaccs of Democracy now? these Copperhead-crockodilist, who pre tended to shed such bitter tears of man ufactured sympathy over the deprivation which their soldier-friends sustained, through the merely alleged frauds of the Union officials On the first page of this paper wc give a brief account of the detection and con- fessiou of the most barefaced and out ragcous attempts at wholesale election frnud and ballot stuffing that mortal man ever heard of. And all this was done under the auspices of malignantly pure aud unadulterated Copperheadism. The victims of the fraud are the people, the soldiers and our national liberties and ex- istance the perpetrators of it, the crea tures appointed by no less a personage than Governor Seymour of New York, without a doubt, purposely to do his bid ding and the bidding of his political friends both at the orth aud iu Rich mond. At the first whimper of discovery the -Copperhead press denounced the whole thing as a "Lincoln trick." When evi dence began to accumulate and to be made nublic. thev nooh-hood at it. But uow that confession of some of the parties engaged in the work, aud laeit admission of others, are made public and when correspondence which cannot be gainsaid is brought, to light, they have but the childish resort left them, and attempt to screen themselves by bringing counter charges against the Union men. It is blessed thing that the matter was in th hands of a military commission, composci of honorable high-minded men, instead 0 a packed jury of New York rowdies fo investigation. The truth has been brought to light, and the result is, tha only the supporters of little Mac Gun boat arc found to have had a hand in the damnable business of forgery and fraud. And how could it be otherwise? Iu making his appointments of agonts under the New York Soldiers' Election law Gov. Seymour could find no one who promised to answer his purpose so well (which was, if possible to squeeze out a majorit' for little Mac in that State,) as his own partizans, and he appointed no other. That he was not disappointed in his choice is clearly shown by the manner in which they did their work. By their manipulations Dead men were brought to life, deserters and traitors were prcstoed into soldiers and patriots iu faithfu Union service, and envelopes closed ant containing votes for Lincoln & Johnson were opened and robbed of their contents and votes for McClellan. and Pcudlcto: substituted; and so faithfully had these servants of their master worked that store box after store box full of the fruits of their labor had been sent home, before they were even suspected of wrong do ing. Should not such conduct on the part of party leaders, lead honest men who act with them to desert them? Can any thing more be wanting to convince even the most unspecting Democrat'thata vote cast for McCbllan & Pendleton, will be a vote caast for the country's permanent disruption and rum I CerUinly it estab lishes the fact clearly, and beyond a per odventure, that it is spoils, and not Union wnicn inuuences sucn men as now con 1 - n trol the Democratic party. Voters of the North, the Rebels iu the Alabama Legislature, to aid their sympathizers North, have passed a series of resolutions, in which they express their willingness to return to the Union on the Chicago Platform, but threaten war, or independence as the only terms of Peace, in case Lincoln is re-elected. At this the press in the interest of the counterfeit Democracy send up a shout, and soon the whole camp in which politicians of that kidney nestle, is in an uproar. But arc 3'ou, voters going to yield to dictation from such a quarter. It becomes the supporters o counterfeit Democracy to do so, but Union men feel it a duty, faith- nit n . . '. tuny to De penormed, to insist that it be longs to the government, constitutionally elected, to dictate terms to the rebels, and not to the people to receive disgraceful terms from them. At the polls, on Tues day, freemen, you will have the opportu nity to rebuke the- miscreants who have dared to conjure'you to listen, to the de mands of traitors. fgIf you would have' your liberties wellsccuredvote: for. Lincoln. & JdhDsoni The Meetings. - T;he-meeting held at the bchooHttouse, ncarJereme Shaw's, in Hamilton towh- ship on Saturday evening was a grouser.: No.fc near all who went there to.-partipif pate in it could get into the building.; The meeting was-addressed by Wm. Da vis Esq., as we haTe been told by a num ber who. were present, in his happiest style. His-vspcech, as his speeches al ways are, was characterized by a number of truthful, telling blows, which he let fall upon the pretensions ot modern, a- lias, Copperhead Democracy. Mr. Davis was followed by Mr. Eschbaugh, a Doug las Democrat, and of course a Lincolu War Democrat, from Montgomery Coun ty, Pa., who also thrust homo-truths upon the Democracy. The Union spirit is wide awake in Hamilton. Mr. Davis also addressed quite a large Meeting in Paradise on Monday .Evening. The meeting was very enthusiastic, and Mr. D. was listened too with much inter est. The meeting at the Court House last Evening was all that could be expected for it. The Court Room was literally jammed with Union men anxious to hear the truth from eloquent lips. Ihe mee ting was addressed by Win. Davis, Esq., of Stroudsburg, and by John Brisbin of Jersey city, N. J., always a Democrat, We have not the room to give a synop sis of the Bpeecbcs, and will therefore content ourselves by saying that they were filled with fervency for the Union and its cause, and were replete with un answerable argument in favor of the sue cess of Lincolu and Johnson. The meet in" adjourned with thrcc-times-thrce, for the Union, its candidates, us armies us victories and its speakers. -o The Soldier's Vote.

JS-s?-Reader, that arch-traitor Yalland iirham has declared that he engineered the Chicago platform, and that the plat form controls the candidates. Do you believe that the war has thus far been failure? Do "Ou belierc that wo should stop where we are, on the hih road to substantial victory and honorable peace and ask the rebels whether they wont nlease to duit on their own terms? Do you believe that our soldier deserve noth ing more from us than mere .sympathy? Do you believe it right to accuse those heroe3 of being engaged in a dishonorable var when they are fighting for the very life of our country. Of course, if you be lieve all this you will vote io.r the candi dates of the Chicago Platform, but if you do not, tnen, to be consistent with your selves and consistent with j'our professed love of country, you must vote for Lin coin & Johusou. STAil accounts agreed in .saying, at the tune, that when the news ol the nom mntion or Mevjieuau t'euuictou was 11 .1 received in tne rcoci armies, there was shouting and rejoicing all through their lines, aud that firing of cannon and other demonstrations of joy marked the event. Reader why was this? The Rcbs knew well enough that the Chicago Conven tion had nominated the candidate selected for it by the powers that be at Richmond, and that their election would bring them both peace and independence. They nopeu ior uns, irom tne Dottom or their hearts, and hence their rejoicings. Can a true friend of this country vote to make the hopes of its enemies good. Remem ber that if you fail to vote for Lincoln & .lohuson you tacitly favor the dismem berment of the country, tho overthrow of Republican institutions, and the buildiug up of a number of military despotisms, compared with which even Mexico would be a paradise. JpWiata ,artl pucc New York is to die in, to say nothing of the expenses of living there. An aged friend sickened and died recently, and is he had not left ample wealth his doctor's bill and funoral expenses would have exhausted the purse ins surviving lamiiv. jjess than two months' illness cost 8500. the doctor's hargc being 54 per visit. The funeral was from an up-town fashionable church. where the price for music was A10, and opening the building 81 5 j carriages, some dozen, over 5100 ; scarfs for clergy aud pall bearers, more than S100; coffin $75, which, with flowers, undertaker's and other expenses, in the aggregate roached about S500. Verily, it is esbensivc to live in New York, Lut mo;c expensive to die there. 03" When Geueral McClellan was in command of the armies of the United States ic wrote certain instruction to Gen. Buoll, then commanding in Kentncky in which he (General McClellan,) said : "I know that I express the feelings and opinions of the President, when I say that wo are ngnting only to preserve the integ rity of the Union, and tho constituional authority of tho General Government." Yet General McClellan intimates, and his supporters. never weary of asserting, that this lVa "wicked Abolition warimwrong in its origin and infamous in,its course. Which is which? Kelancholy.

Pretty Work for a. U. S. Senator. The last Columbia County Republican, published atBIoomsburg, contains the follow ing particulars of ah affair which occurrod there on election day. Read it: "Capt. Silver, Deputy Provost Marshal of this county, in perauance of his prepcibed duties, arrested among others, two men, named Heller and Holder, ol Hemlock, They were lodged in jail at this place on Sunday. Ou Tuesday afternoon Mr. Sena tor Buckalew went to the Livery stable ami hired a two horse carriage under the pre text of taking a ride down the river. He carefully fastened down the. curtains, drove down to and out Third Street, then up Iron Street, and at the corner of Rook and Iron streets met ShcrifF Furman and Robert C Fruit, the Comrnissionpr'f clerk, who had with them the two deserters above named. Mr. Buckalew delivered the carriage ovcV into the hand of Messrs. Furman and FruitV who to-ik' therdeerters over to Buck Horn, where they voted. Capt. Silvers, on hearing of these high handrd proceedings, at one? sent a couple of resolnte soldiers after the party. They overtook them returning arrested them, brought them to town and placed them under guard. The Marshal telegraphed to Harpsburg lor instruc tions. In pursusncc of orders he sent th i party the Sheriff, Commiestoner's Clerk and deserters under a strongguard of what Mr. Buckalew denounces as ''insolent hire lings" to Ilarnsburg on the Ttresda?. even ing train.
