WHY COL. WHIUttr WAS NOMINATED.
Our friends are aware of tbe position we
liave taken in reference to this Congressional
canvas. We insisted that there should be no
party fight. We expressed a willingness to
support any tsao who stood up unequivocally
Io favor or supporting tbe policy cl lue gene'

to ask whether la has been a Democrat or
Republics-).
We insisted oo tbe Repnnlican LoDTerence
nominating Col. Wrigh'.,as a Union candidate
for these reasons, to wit :
1st. lie fought the Breckinridge secession
Democracy as vigorously, as turat-glly aud
courageously as wa did. He began the light
at Charleston, followed it up at Baltimore,
and continued it at Louie with all tbu energy

LETTER MOM THB KUITOH. UATKD, .
WasttifJOToa Hocsa, 1
Philadelphia, June 2s, J8C1. f )
x This great city, like all others, is at a Stand
still point Io regard to its business operations.
Tha' wholesale dealori ara doing but very
little, tod art not, apparently, aver anxious
to do even that. Tbey do. cot expect In
make anything this year, and most of them
woold ba well satisfied if they clear tboir
expenses. Tba retail stores ara the only
places where tbera . is any. appearance of
business. Tha manufactories are mostly sus
pended, and many arc on' half time. Goods
are necessarily cheap, as a general thing, but
many articles have gone op, especially Son.
thero productions.
Tha war feeling her Is mocb as with us.
There ara but few Southerners visiting bere
oovaa1thoogh some occasionally make their
appearance, as many ara connected with resi
dent! North io business operations. This
city Is not free from Secessionists, not open
Secessionists, of course, as it would not be
deemed either pleasant or prudent to avow
these doctrines. All are therefore Unionists.
But after all, what ara Northern Unionists
with Southern sympathies, bat Secessionists,
only waiting a favorable opportunity to
declare tbeir opinions openly T Such was tbe
course of tbe lories of tha Revolution, few
of whom were williog to avow themselves as
such. 1 bad a conversation last evening
with an old friend, a Southern gentlemao,
who bas resided here the last twenty years.
He was formerly a Henry Clay whig, and at
tbje last election 'a Breckinridge man, and now
sustains tha South io all tbeir actions, and
yet be would not be willing to be callud a
Secessionist. History will, however, assign
to all these individuals their proper position.
Politicians are in mocb the same position
as with us. The old party backs, who have
been accustomed to divide tbe offices among
themselves and to dictate to the people bow
they should vote, under the penalty of being
denounced, find that tbe people look with
distrust upon office hunters, who, as a general
thing, are not tbe best of patriots, and not
onfrequently doubtful Democrats, though
always loud mouthed in tbeir professions.
Tbe proposition now before tbe Councils in
regard to tbe leasing, or in effect the sale, of
tbe Sunbory & Erie Railroad to the Pennsyl.
vaoia Central, for a period of 999 years, is
looked upoo with distrust by some who are
interested in the Readiog and other roads,
which may be affected by discriminating tolls
in favor of tbeir own company.
A. K. Kapp, of Northumberland, is here
purchasing horses for the Army. He par
cbased forty Cva to-duy, which will be ship
ped, he says, tomorrow, for Wcehington
Dull times and tbe scarcity of money baa
brought down prices of horses.
As mocb bas been said about sold.icra
clothing, I examined a large lot of overcoats,
just foroisbed by that enterprising firm,
Rockhill L Wilson. Lilie everything thot
comes outof their elegant establishment, they
will bear the test of examination. They fur
nisbed three regiments in ten days.
65- Col. Ilendrick B. Wright, of Wilkes
barre, has been nominated by tbe Democratic
and Republican conventions as a Union
candidate for Congies fn that district, to fill
tho vacancy occasioned by the death of lion,
George V. Scranton. Col. V." right, in a
letter of occeptPDca to the Republican con
vention, lays :
"Our brethren are io arms, exposed to the
toils, privationo and hardships of the camp.
Tbey are niuviog steadily oo iu the diechargn
of the great duty they have voluntarily
assumed. They are doing battle for tho very
life-blood of tbe Republic, united as a baud of
brothers in the ueleoce or tbe constitution
and tbe laws. Is there any reason why we,
enjoying the quiet of comfortable homes,
should encage in either personal or political
strife? Our divisions would be pnt a poor
example, indeed, to tbeir uoion end good
fellowship in tbe held I 11 Ibera ever was a
time when tha bickerings of party should
cease, it is now. But one seutiuient should
occupy the mind of the loyal people of this
Uoion, aod that tbe great aud absorbing
thought of preserving tbo integrity of tho
government aod the crushing out of rebel
lion."
J3T Hon. Ilendrick B. Wright, waa on Satur
day last, elected to Congress from tba 12tb dis
trict, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death
of lien. George W. Scranton. He had no op
position. Mr. Wright ia a democrat, hut being
an uncompromising Union man, and in favor of
sustaining the Administration against the South
ern rebels, the Republicans of the district declined
to make a nomination against him.

Tba aTair was a brilliant re union of beautiful

After Colonel Cameron bad responded io

called out John W, Foroey, Clerk of the
House of Representatives, who spoke In a
atraio of eloquence peculiar to himself, in
refenenca to the struggle io which we are
engaged, end concluded by complimenting
in elegant trms to tba Hon. Simon Cameroo
and proposed a toast in bis honor.
Id response to the toast of Colonel Forney
aod that of tba President, General Cameron
rose aod said j ,
Mr. Prksidknt and Grnti.exrs ofthk St.
Andrew's Sociktt, and or thr Skventt-
ninth Regiment ti thank yoo for the cor
diul manner io which you have greeted the
toast in my honor. Sometimes the compli
nie.ots oi onr inenas, nowever sincere, are
apt to be embarrassing, bat it may be that
my Inena, colonel Jforneybasa ngbt to
speak for me. IUa ancestors were tbe oppo
nents of a harsh, tyrannical aristocracy in the
lowlands of ooa nationality, while mine were
fighting for freedom and the right in the
highlands of another. Great applause.!
Our forefathers came to these shores about
the same lime, and settled io the same region
even in the good old county of Lancaster, in
tbe State of Pennsylvania.
When tbe tpost for the Secretary of War
was proposed, 1 bad fur a moment almost
forgotten, io the midst of this pleasant com
pany that it bore any allusion to me, and
particularly when l icottea to my lett opoo
tho form and face of my venerable friend,
Col. Seatoo, of 'the National Intelligencer,
who, not very many years ago, paid me my
weekly wages, as a journeyman io his prin
ting office, who, for more tban fifty years,
nas oeeo one oi ine most earnest and power
ful defenders of this free government, and
who, with great political sagacity, combines
a parity of character and a sincerity of heart,
that prove him to be a worthy descendant oi
a brave Scotch family. Applause. But
bere I am, amid all tbe recollections of other
days, end all tbe solemnity of coming events,
to join bunds with you io paying this spon
taneous tribute to our beloved country.
Applause. While 1 thank yoa for your
toast to me, I caonot but admire the devo
tion you evince for the glorious land of yonr
adoption. You represent all tbe clans of old
Scotia clans which, at various times, have
been divided at home by fierce politiccl and
religious feuds, uod yet, iu this country, you
have uciled as one man to fight iu the holiest
cause that ever excited the enthusiasm of a
great people. Applauso.J Before and
around me are the Grahumes, and tho F.lli
otts, aud fur down Ibe table ere the Gor-
j doos, tbo Campbells, and the Ilamiltous.
1 bere is no discord and no uissentiou ull
are Americans, lighting for that generous
country which protects us all. Applause.
The deluded people down boutb hare

Tbey have, without cause, rebelled against a

seized upon public and private property
they have outraged tbe persons of Northern

placed themselves beneath contempt, unless
they can retrieve some honor on the field of

You will be honest, brave and merciful. You
will respect tbe right of private opinion. You

Show to the world that you differ from your

were ordered oo review, auer wnicn we iook

Haoerstown, Jooe 24, 1801.
Dkar WnvEnT: You can see by the head
ing of this note that we have sgain been put in
another Brigade. It seems that for our Regiment
there is nothing to be done but being driven from
one Brigade to another! how ufien it has been
done I have not taken time to count. There is
some consolation to the hoys, however, to know
that we are near the enemy and may have a
chance for a fracas, and that they are lo be
commanded by ao noble a man aa Gen. A ber
et ombie, late Colonel of the 9th U. 8. Infantry.
We are lying in Camp in a perfect atate of
laziness as regards lighting since our march on
W illiamsport the enemy have let ua alone, our
fellows hare had a pretty good chance for drill,
and they have been kept steadily at it ton, It is
mighty hard work, with the thermometer at 103
in tho sun. The bovs stand it well, perfectly
satisfied, and are getting fat, particularly on the
pork and crackers.
J he W isconsin Kegiment, in the same brigade
with ua, is a crack one, splendidly drilled, and
by the way are kept harder at work than ours.
Their Colonel is a gentleman, a well drilled
soldier, and I believe a graduate of West Point.
To show the love ef his men for him, on leaving
Camp McC'lure, Cbaiohershurg, tbe Regiment
being in full line, preparatory to leaving, lie
asked if they would light for the '-Star fpangled
Banner," and die for it and him, the whole
Regiment to a man fell on their knees and swore
they would fight for tho fl.ii-;, protect him and die
if necessary. In the action of such men, headed
by Col. Starkweather, there nerd be no appre
hensions as to the success of our cause.
Yesterday (Sabbath) about 4 o'clock in the af
ternoi-n, I heard some sweet sounds of music
thought the air familiar, went out ol my tent to
listen to it and was most agreeably surprised to
hear Hint good old tjne "Coronation" being
played by tho Wisconsin Band. If it wasn't
loolith 1 would acknowledge that I fell a little
something resembling a tear running down my
cheek; but you know nature muM have its way.
The neat piece was "Old Hundred," ending
with "A old Lang Syne," and I tell vou there
were tears tan down the cheeks of "braver
hearts and stouter frames" than mine, on hearing
those good old airs. 1

by a civio aod military parade. Military Com.

The Fourth of July, 1SGI, may be almost as
memorable as was tbe Fourth of July, 1776.
Oa tbat now hallowed day, the representatives
thirteen colonies met to establish tbeir iode
peodence; on Thursday tbeir children will
meet to preserve it. Io 177C an experiment
was instituted, io 1BC1 tbat experiment will
he finally tested. Tbe problem before our
fathers was, 'can a people unite for tbe preser
vation of the general welfare without tba ad
juuctg of royalty aud power t The problem
to-day is, can these people thus united muio
tain their nationality and preserve tbeir iosli.
titions from tho ir.Bidioos treason of their own
members t In 1776 the arbiter was tbe sword.
To tbe same awful tribuoal we appeal in 18C1.
Then let us all, realizing tbe perils of tbe pres
ent crisis, lay &ide all strifes of party all dif
ferences of creed and faith ell disagreements
political and social, and, with one consent, re'
sclve tbat on the Fourth of July, 16G1, we
ill help to strengthen and cheer tbe hearts,
aud hold op tha bands of our brava couutry.

Freedom acd tbe magnificent fabric of Gov

tba Republic formed and gave to us in 177S.

Monticello having lauded a small reconnoit
ring party at the month of tbe Rappahannock
river, a party of about 50 rebels attacked
tbem, killing one and woundiog eight. Oo
the side of tbe rebels several were seen to full
and a brick bouse wag battered down. The
gunboat Quaker City attacked a rebel troop
of borse, killing five men aod wounded save
ral others. A fishing party of five from
Fortress Monroe, were fired upon near Sew
all's Point and three of them killed.
At three o'clock on Thursday morning, George
P. Kane, Marshal of Police, in the city of Balti
more, was arrested at his house, by order of Gen.
Banks, and conveyed to Fort McHtnry, where
he is now held a prUoner.
Gen. Banks issued a proclamation naming
John A, Kenly, of the Maryland regiment, as
Provost Maishal, superceding also the poweis of
the police commissioners, who is tj exercise
supreme control over the department, until some
known loyal citizen is appointed to act aa marshal.
The proclamation gives aa a reason for the
arrest of Kane, that he is known to be aiding and
abetting those in armed rebellion to the govern
merit, at the head of an armed force, which he
used to conceal rather than detect acta of treason
to the government.

to preserve the integrity of our free institutions,
and before six months have rolled around I have

Scotchman, or an Irishman, or a German, comes
to tho I'r.itcd Slates, he merges kis own national
ity into, the cinmtTy that adopts In in as a son ;
and so, whan the revolt is supprescj, and this
war is ended, our beneficirnt Government will no
oncer be perplexed by doubtful questions. Tnere
will be then no more talk of Virginians; Mary

Talk about tha weakness of this Govern
ment after all these manifestations of the spir
it of our people I Why, it is the strongest
Government today in the world. It is tbe
Government of the people. Every man in
bero a sovereign, and every man is acting in
defence cf bis own rights, wbliu obedient to
tbat great bond wbicb unites us in a common
brotherhood, aod makes every inch of Ameri
can soil sacred to ti e people. This army
which bas been gathered, represents such
people; and when Congress meets I em con
fident tbey will gladly ratify all that has been
done by the President and the Cabinet, under
tbe extraordinary emergencies in which thy
have found themselves Applause. On
the other band, lha Government of the mon
archists of tbs Sooth ignores tbe people, and
is already seeking for examples atcoug llie
despotisms of tha Old World to conduct and
completa Its experiment of demoralization.
Tbey buvo no sympathy with the industrious
and laboring masses of our people. Tbey live
by tbe sweat of other men brows tba sic

tbeir misfortune is tbat tbey bavo dune noth

Wc have j through Baltimore we had no trouble, they
supposing from our dress we wore regulars.
There was one expression oT hostility, how
ever, and that was by ao old termagant, wbo
openod ber door, displaying a Secession Bag,
and making mouths at us, but our boys paid
no altontion to ber. Happily no one saw her
but our company, or tbera would bava been
trouble. Id passing through tha city I saw
something tbat done a soldier good a 7U(
mutde to resemble tbe American flag, and on
it tbe "proud bird of liberty," besides tbe
Maryland coat of arms. It wag tba prettiest
pieca of work, of tbe kind, I ever saw. When
our boys saw it tbry could not restrain tbeir
feelings, aod gave to mat proud emblem auco
hearty cheers as to fairly make tba streets
ring aod Secessionists tremble. When we
arrived at Bolton statioo tbere was aome
deloy, and a gentleman, a strong Union man,
showed bis bounty by liberally supplying our
regiment with fresh bread and good batter,
that is. aa many as could get into tbe bouse.
H was, after a pretty bard march, very ac
ceptable, aod our boys, to use tbe expression
of an old friend, wore "too full for expression"
hot spirits, but thanks. W ben wa arrived
at Harrisburg wa changed eogines, and after
tedious ride arrived at Cbambersburg at 2
o'clock next morning. Yoo bava beard of
the fellow, io aleepiug, "bunting for tba soft
side of a plank," so it wag with us. Our cars
were those used for tba transportation of
cattle, aod being too late to march to camp,
made tbe beat of it, and alept very soundly,
so mocb ao tbat your bumble servant, in
sleeping, dreaming of home, gave a kick, aod
for bis pains fell off tba bench and received a
black eye. At breakfast time tbera wag
nothiug lor us to eat, and some of onr boys,
getting used to tbe "tricks oflrade," strayed
about town, and io their walk were invited in
and hospitably entertained by aoma of the
citizens for myself 1 bad the extreme plea
sure of broakfastiog with W. G. Reed, Esq.,
cashier of tba Cbambersburg Baok, a very
fine gentleman, wbo baa my heartiest thanks
aud warmest wishes.
Wa were then marched into camp, fixed
cur tents, aod after four days hard drilling
were ordered to Hagerstowo. Oo last Moo
day. 3 A. M., wa again struck our tents aod
arrived bere about B o'clock. Oo our way
down wa were agreeably surpiised at a email
place, Greeocastle, eleven miles below Cham
bersburg. It ia a place to take io water, we
stopped about five minutes, wheo wa were
'co-npletely stormed with eatables, supplied
by tba ladies of tbat place. One could hear
tbe rest of our regitneot shooting "a second
Suoburv." "three cheers for tha ladies of
Greeocastle. besides a "tiger" for those of
our place. I tell yon tba ladieg of Suubury
and Ureencastla ara held la bigb esliioatiou
by tha "bloody llth."
Yesterday morning, at 3 o'clock, onr Bri
gade, noder command of Geo.Nagle, were
hurriedly marched to Williamsport, Md.,
about seven miles below, a maaaaoger baying
arrived with a despatch staliug tbat tba rebels,
soma 15.000 strong, were about to attack tba
Faderal forcas stationed tbera. Tbera wag
oath In support the Constitution and the t'nion
and then let him depart in peace. The fellow
was most awfully frightened. Yesterday there
was one taken with better grit -the t'orporsl of
the Guard took him to the guard bourn. When
asked his business he gave saucy and very im
perfect answers, and swore awfully ha would
never take the oath af allegiance to the United
tstutes. He was ttieu taken lo Gen. Patterson's
quaiters, under guard, but what was done with
him I have not heard. If. I bad the sentence to
pats on him it woulJ ba "to dance on nothing,
with a rope around his neck, and no fiddler tc
play the tune, hanging.
There waa considerable fun In our company
on last Saturday night. A fire occurred iu the
town right opposite our quarters. The bovs
couldn't get out, and they had an impromptu
running of their own. The crv was "down on
her Gnodie," "hi, hi " "pasa tbe Washy," now
she brings her," "that's tho way, old boy," and
then put her back in "the house." I tell you we
had a high old time, and Col. Jarrctt thought we
wera a regular set of Firemen Zouaves.
