tbe following, wbicb will interest your readers.
Yesterday afternoon, two gentleman solid
looking farmers arrived in Camp Curtin, who
ought an interview with the officer of tbe
day, and iufortned bins that tbey were in search
of a girl who bad strayed awoy. In less than
an bour she was found on guard doing duty as
a sentinel, in tbe uniform of Captain Kuho's
company of Saraner Rifles, of Carlisle.

it a uu out kdow wuai name sne enlisted un
der, to proteot tbe honor of her country's flog,
but her real name is Sophia Cryder, and her
residence only about a mile from this city.
She has been in Captain Kubn.s company a
week, and is a plump loss of only sixteen years
of age, and bad so completely unsexed herself
that she could safely bid defiance to any one
trot acquainted with ber to detect ber. How
she shirked an examination, wbicb is said to
be made with great strictness by the medical
men of Camp Cortin, we are not informed.
She is represented as a girl of unblemished
reputation.
Tun Nkw Tkkarirt Notes. Tbe first
issue of the small Treasury notes was made
on Saturday end bas already entered into
circulation, and we understand that some of
our tradesmen refused to take them except
at a discoont, which may bave been the result
or ignorance on both sides. We will there
- fore explain that there are two kinds of
treasury notes the "demand bills," for gene
ral circulation, and without interest, and the
treasury notes which bear 7 3 10th per cent,
interest, redeemable in three years.
The denomination or tbe "demand bills"
re $5, $10 and $20 ; while those bearing
interest are 50,8100, 50O, $1,000 and
$5,000.
There are five kinds of five dollar notes
payable on demand in New York, Boston,
Philadelphia, St. Louis and Cincinnati, and
of course, for alt business purposes are better
than specie. The name of tbe place where
tbe note is redeemable is engraved oo tbe face.
Tbe $5 note is embellished on tbe margin
with full length figure of Crawford's "Ameri
ca," with tbe motto "E , I'luribus Unum,"
and on tbe rigbt a portrait of Alexander
Hamilton.
There are also Eve $10 ootes, made re
deemtkble as absve. On the left is a likeness
of President Lincoln, in the centre tbe
American eagle, and on the right a full-length
figure representing tbe Arts. These notes
bave been put into circulation. In the centre
of tbe $20 notes there is a full length figure
of Justice. Tbey are a little larger tban
ordinary bank notes, and being redeemable
on demand will be highly priced as a circa
ting medium, and therefore holders should
not submit to any shave Washington

The company was not full, but will, no doubt,

tST Tub Union Ticket. We are glad to
hear that the Douglas Democrats in th
upper end of the county are strong for the
Union ticket. Messrs. Nicely, Bright and
Dr. ilasser, on tbis ticket, ere all strong
Douglas men, and for this very reason willbe
opposed by the White Feather Breckinridge
papers of this place, who stand ready to cut
the tbroat of every Douglas man who does
not join their clique. As the great body of
our Democrats are Douglas men, these dougb
faces will be whipped out of their boots.
tj" Gov. Dickinson's great speech, on our
outside, should be read by every good citizen
and will be endorsed by every one, whether
Democrat or Republican, or of any other
party, that does not sympathize with the
rebel party. Want of room prevented its
appearance lust week. When will tbe speech
of this distinguished Democrat appear in the
Breckinridge Democrat of this place ? Echo
answers never.
C3T There is a report that tbe privateer
Sumter bas been wrecked off Trinidad, and
another report that on tbe same day ebe was
at Paramaribo.
$3T The rebelB oo the nnper Potomac have

rallrood, to use them io extending the track or
the railroad rrom Strasburg to Winchester
Tor the purposes or their army. They have
also taken off the engioes for tb same end.
CJF On Tuesday afternoon, tbe 10th inat
aboot three o'clock, battle was fought near
Summersville, western Virginia, between tbe
United Mates corps, commanded by General
Rcsencrans, and tbe rebel army under Floyd,
wbicb lasted until nightfall. Our armv slent

that Edward Y. Bright, tbe Union candidate
for Assembly, bad loo since retired from
politics, and reluctantly accepted the nomi
nation, we also referred to his great expe
rience in Legislation. In addition we me
say that Mr. Bright was one of the strongest
supporters or tbe lamented Douglas, and
earnestly advocated bis election. I la I...
also strongly supported the Government in
me prosecution of this wicked war, brought

is also oo both tickets, and refuses to be
considered party candidate. Io tbe same
county Col. Wright was placed on both
tickets and elected to Congress by an im
Oleosa majority last spring. Tbis course is
adopted in many counties, and is la tbe right
spirit, and proves that tbe Uoioo party is
governed by principles and patriotism, and
not by party prejudices.
Till DOTY OF GOOD DEMOCRAT.
If any true Democrats can bave any doubt
whether or not they shooldvote the Union
ticket, let them look and see where they God
all or nearly all tba ablest, best, and most
distinguished men of the Democratic party
Where do they find that old veteran Demo!
crat, Geo. Cass, tbe able Secretary of State
under Mr. Buchanan? Where do tbey find
Hon. Joseph Holt, of Kentucky, Post Master
General and late Secretary or War under
Mr. Buchanan, who saved Mr. Buchanan and
the Government from being entirely plunder
ed by Secretary Floyd ? Where do tbey find
Got. Dickinson, wbo stands at the bead of
the Democratic party In tbe State or New
York, and wbo is one of tbe most dis'tin.
guished statesmen in tbe'Unioo ? Where do
tbey find Gen, Butler, now in the Army, end
Ute commander of tbe expedition that cap
tured tbe Forts io North Carolina, wbo
recently refused to take a party nomination
for Governor, declaring tbat tbis was no time
for party, and recommended the re-election
or the present Republican Governor Andrew ?
Where do they fiud Governor Johnson, of
Tennessee, tbe head and front or tbe Democ
racy in that State? Wbere stood the late
lamented Douglas, wbo beseeclied all true
men to lay aside parly until the country was
rescued from the Southern traitors and their
Breckinridge allies in the North ? Why do
not tbe editor of tbe bogus Democrat, of
Sunbury, and other "wbite feathered" heroes
of tbe Breckinridge organs, publish tbe
speeches of lliese truly greataod distinguished
leaders or the Democratic party? Is it not
because they are unwilling to let their readers
know tbe truth ? Can they point out, on the
other hand, a eiugle prominent and distin.
guisbed Democrat in this country wbo takes
the opposite ground, or who has dared to
reply to these great men, and true Democrats,
except a fow miserable traitors like Breckin
ridge and Vallnndigham ? Tet these political
hucksters, who do the dirty work or a clique
of office hunters, call on tbe people to sustain
tbe party, and leave the country to take
care or itself. Now these distinguished
Democrats have nil declared that we should
know no party until the war is oVer. Wbo
says they ore not right? Why, no one, but
small, pot-house politicians, who are scheming
and scrambling for office, and who get np
oewBpupers like Pnrdy & Bacbman's bogus
Democrat and the treasonable sheet at
Selinsgrove, and hire strangers and turn coat
whigs to teach the old Jackson Democrats of
this county how to vote ?
IS 111 till! A, DlifNlut It A1 IC TICKKT ?
The bogus Democratic paper of this place,
knowing that true Douglas Democrats or this
county would not support tbo ticket got up
by the Breckinridge fction, which tbey
falsely call tbe Democratic ticket, aud on
which they placed all Breckinridge men, and
these all on tho other side or the river, think
they can prevent true Democruts from voting
the Union ticket, by culling it a Republican
ticket. Now these editors must either be
fools themselves or believe that their readers
are fools, if they suppose they can niuko them
believe such stuff. It io well known that one
half oT the members of the Convention were
Democrats and tlau other half Republicans.
The bust offices were given to the Democrats
and one-belf of the candidates nominated
are Democrats. Uow, then, can this be
called a Kepubl cao ticket ? Mr. Purdy, who
is a comparative stranger in this county, and
Mr. 15 ach man, who was, himself, a rampant
Republican only a few years age. must bave
a poor opinion of tbe Democracy or this
county, ir tbey suppose they can be made to
swallow such nonsense and falsehood. The
ticket is a oo party ticket, and in this respect
truly Democratic, because oo true Democrat
will disturb the country by party issues in
such a crisis. Tbo ouly party ticket that
will be run in the State this fall, is the ticket
of the Breckiuridge party, a small faction or
olhce hunters, who get up party issues to put
themselves into cflice by forming a ticket
with their own men on it. and then rely upon
being elected by calling it a Democratic
ticket.
Ctf" On What Side would Gkn. Jackson
bk? ir any good Democrat bas any doubt
what ticket he should vote, let him ask him
self, what side Gen. Jackson would tuke if
he was living. Does any one suppose be
would support the Breckinridge faction ?
In 1833, when Gen. Jackson was President,
John C. Celboun, of this same Southern
party, now beaded by John C. Breckinridge,
commenced tbis same secession movement at
Charleston. Gen. Jackson did not wait, like
Mr. Buchanan, but filled the Forts at
Charleston with soldiers issued his procla
mation and swore by tbe "eternal" if they
went one step forther, he would hang Calhoun
and all bis followers "as bigb as Haman.''
They knew the iron will of the old bero, and
the traitors knocked under. Now, does any
one suppose that Gen. Jackson would support
a ticket got op by a faction, whose leader,
John C. Breckinridge, ia one of tbe disciples
of John C. Calhoun, and who was the cause
or the defeat of tbe lamented Douglas, the
friend and defender of Jackson ? With a
knowledge of these forts no Jackson Demo
crat can hesitate to vote the "Union" ticket,
tbe only ticket a troe Democrat can consis.
tently vote. The memorable words by Gen.
Jackson, "The Union must and shell be
preserved," is now the motto of the Uuion
party.
" Whivt iK'lli theft buotsdirplm-s,
Must mm Bi'Uilnstrs fare u face."
O" The Northumberland County Democrat
of last week, bas tbe following astounding
challenge :
Secbssiomsts. John Yonngman, in Lis
last issue, was very profube io epithets
sgainst this paper and the Democracy or this
county, culling ull hands Secessionists. Now,
all tbat is necessary for Mr. Younguian to do
Is to pick out any one or the two thousand
three hundred voters that took a part in our
primary election, and tell him to bis face tbat
be is Secessionist, end be will then have
a chance to establish the slander and vilhtin.
ous falsehood that he charges upon them all.'1
Mr. Yoongmao never said such silly
thing, or oo one else. There are not more
than one hundred genuine Breckinridge
dougb faced, semi-Secer jlooist) in tbe county!
A few of these are io Sunbury and vicinity
and the remainder of tbe oest is in tbe
opper end. And yet tbey managed to bam
boozle the Douglas Democrats, and get a
majority or their own meo oo what they call
tbe Democratic tisiet,
THK FSOFtTlllcnn CENTRAL RAILROAD.
The Northern Central Railroad has been
assailed by certain parties in New York and
elsewhere, because tbe government has been
forced to nse its great facilities, and shorter
route to the federal capital for tba transpor
tation of troops. These parties take advan
tage of every accident on that road to
denounce Its management, and thus if
possible destroy its popularity and usefulness,
bnt when tbe fuels in the case are brought
before the public, as in the case of tbe late
accident, whan several soldiers were killed
and others severely injured, tbe circumstan
ces exonerate the agents of the road and
completely vindicate and sustain its manage
ment. The latest cry, and tbe meanest opposition
waged are those by roads tonnihg from New
York through Philadelphia and Baltimore to
Washington. Parties interested io these
roads, with their unners and barkers are
constantly bowling at the government because
the Northern Central Railroad is used for the
transportation or troops from tbe north-east
and east to Washington.
When we state that a saving of $5,000 is
made on each regim?nt forwarded to Wash-
ington from the east over the Northern
Central road, the public will understand
why that coiporation is preferred to all
others, and when tbe additional fuel is made
known that all trans-shipment is also
avoided, the preference will be commended
not only oo the policy of economy, but
as a matter or safety, accommodation and
speed.
Tho Seliosgrove Times, or last week
publishes a speech delivered by Isaac Slenker,
Ksq , oo tbe 4lh or July lust, which contains
the following patriotic Bentiinent. Mr.
Slenker is a candidate for President Judge
in that district :
"Patriotism will not permit ns now, while,
our country is iu tbis Tearful crisis, to inquire
who is a Democrat or who is a Republican.
It is the duty of both Democrat and Repub
lican, to divest himself of all political and
purtizan feeling, and to act in the churucter
and with tbe feelings or a putriol."
Every good citiZKO und every true Demo
crat wilt endorse that sentiment. But in the
very next column there is an article from the
Freeman's Journal, a traitorous organ iu
New York, which has been suppressed by tbe
Government, which contains the following
treasonable paragraph, expressing sentiments
directly iu opposition to those of Mr.
Sletiker :
"Kven in counties most desperately given
over to Lincoln last November, powerful
parties, irrespective of former association,
have appeared denouncing this war. Ju this
State tl needs but collision prudence with
party managers to secure, ne.vt fall, a full
committed peace -Legislature The change io
Pennsylvania is even more rapid.".
And yet this miserable sheet, which blows
hot and cold in oue breath, which publishes
treason aud patriotism in parallel! columns
is supported by men professing to be Demo,
crats, some, no doubt, through ignoronce, onJ
others by deBtgo. Such, however, is the
character of the Breckinridge press here and
eUewbere.
tS" We quole from the Wanhlnglnu corros
pondcnce of the Press and News, one of the lead
ing newspapers ill the Slule qf Wisroirtmi. Frt,m
the tylo ol the rorreHpondence we are induced to
believe thot it in from tho pin of one of the cdi
tors oflhut jiiurnal. It ia us fulloiva :
Washisoiom, Aug. 28,
. A slay in Washington of a week or ten days
has sutti-ficd me of the gipantic preparation now
making for this war. When tlid blow ia struck
it will be crushing, and will blot out all honos of
the rebels.
The different meiiilicra of the Cabinet labor
day and nilit ; and a this giganlio movement
is more in 'the hand of the War Department, to
ils dulie are more oppressive. General Came
ron, its head, is the man of ull others for that
position. With unliiing industry, great admin
Mrntive ability, energy, decision, courage, quick
and ready know led ol human character, incorrup'
tuble integrity, he has accomplished wonders in
his department. I am well informed by a fiiend,
now a guest in his house, that olten, long after
midnight, he admits messengers to his bed room,
and la on hi bed counselling and giving order
and instruction. This great labor is wearir.g
him out, but his determinutioii never flugs. Like
his gallant brother who fell at Hull Kun, he will
die in the harness rather than fuller in this peri
lous hour. I do not wonder that he is bitterly
assailed. A ttacks upon him conies from two
sources. First that class of men who come here
to steal and to rob the Government. Their name
is legion
Some New York merchant politicians, profess
ing great patriotism, figured largely a a com
mittee to save the govsrumeiit. Finally, one of
Iheirliumher proposed to sell a steamer to the
government at $;jfi2,000. The President and
Cabinet upproved the purchase, and directed the
Secretary ol War to close it t ili r.,irI. I
General Cameron took Ihe precaution to send on
an agent to New York to examine the vessel,
and to learn all that it was proper to know, lie
discovered that a lew week before the owner had
offered Ihe vessel at ijiSli-.'.OOO, at private sale.
This w as communicated to Uen. Cameron, who
at once refused to make the purchase, and thus
defeated this conspiiacy. under professions of pa
triotism, to rob the Government of $100,000.
Thereupon the participator in thia nefarious at
tempt to plund-r raised the howl against the Se
cretary of War, and have since been continually
engaged in attempting to poison the public mind
against him.
I will give you, in a few days, further instances
of attempts by these palriotio and disinterested
merchant politicians to rob Iho government j also
of other attempts promptly and firmly put down
by Gen. Cameron. You may rest assured that
he will come out of this trial triumphant.
The rebel inlluence ie the free states has also
been busy at work to prostrate bim and to destroy
hi Uselulne.
A LOOKER-ON.
C3T We trust that our neighbor Purdy,
when be speaks of os hereafter, will try to be
more careful in bis o'thogrsphy. His bad
grammar we can tolerate much better than
his spelling. We don't mind being called a
-tleuk little editor," provided the word is lot
spell wilb an a, as Mr. Purdy basil. It
may be tbe best way to spell sneak instead of
soeek. As regords the word "dam," we are
also somewhat in the dark. Is it the mill
dam or tho Shainokin dam our neighbor
refers to? We are, perhaps, too sensitive
oo these questions, but think, as editors
profess to he teachers, they should not .let
bad examples to the rising generations.
I.. .
CiiT The editor of tbe Atnerican, and we
presume tbe Ountte, uever did object to
Judge Jordan making speeches in favor of
Uoioo and harmony in tbe prosecution of the
wicked war brought about by the Ureckin
ridge leaders. But tbey did object to the
bypocricy and deceit wbicb induced Mr.
Purdy and others to take shelter under Judge
Jordan's wing, to preach harmony and Uoiou,
while at tbe same time be was publishing in
bis paper articles tending to create discord
and disunion, hv ati 0 lllalt itti n a that Icannl.liaana

-j uiouuuu, aiso, mat an remarks
made by us io regard to tba Breckiuridge
ticket, are not intended to apply to tbe
President Judgeship, for wbicb there was bo
opposition, io hois county.
0 We have received a well written
communication from Money, signed by a
respectable citizen, Io regard to some disloyal
expressions used by Judge Turner. We bad
frequently heard of tbe disloyal sentiments of
tbe Judge from itber reliable sources, and
nevet had any doubl of their troth. The
communication having beeo res eived at late
hoar, we can only make room for the following
extracts, wbicb fully establish the charge,
and will sustain our position that Do good
Democrat or any other good citizeo should
support any man who gave utterance to such
sentiments.
The writer, after speaking or the necessity
of giving a strong and hearty support to the
Government in putting down tbe rebellion,
refers to the Tact tbat we have men in our
midst, wbo give aid and comfort to tbe rebels,
and says :
On or about the 20th of May last, several
gentlemeu from Columbia county, being on
their way to Willjamspnrt, called on Judge
Tarner, and having had some acquaintance
with hlni, intended to be bis 8 nests over niebt.
Soon tbe conversation turned on the rebellion.
at which time (as I bave been told by two or
me men inen present.) be said menv bard and
bitter things against the Federal Government,
declaring that the Government was altogether
to blame for bringing on the war, that the
North was all wrong and tbe South right, that
tbe coose or the South was just, and the North
ooght to moke nil desired concessions, and ex
pressed himself as bitterly opposed to the law
authorizing the support of soldier's families,
stating that it was all wrong from besinnicn
to end, and unconstitutional ; and there being
one or two loyal men in the party, who by the
way were also Democrats, they undertook to
argue the case with the "Jodga," hut he, ra
ther unceremoniously, informed them that
they must not contradict him In his own
house, that "lit" was Judge and understood
all about these matters, and finally told them
that if this had not been the case be, (the
Judge, of course, would not bave been placed
in the position be held, because," said be,
"they do rot put dumb heads iu for 'Judge ;' "
that when they passed through Muucy, they
might enquire, ir tbey chose to do so, about
Jiim ; but that they must not enquire for Wm.
Tarner, hut must enquire for yie Turner.
as nobody in Muncy knew bim by' any other
iiBiiiB man juoge, vc. two ol the company
came to the conclusion (but thevennlil ,,t
or would not, hear any more of bis abuse,
irenauu ana egotism, aud ordered their horse

errivirg hern about twelve o'clock. I am well

O" Another Terribi. Railroad Am.
hunt. Oo Mondoy night a train or cars oo
the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad, containing
a body of United States volunteers, fell
through bridge near Huron, Indiana. Four
passenger cars were precipitated into the
creek, and one box and one baggage car fell
on tbe top of tbern. Tbese cars contained
companies K. F, G and I, anti Ibe latter two
companies are the principal sufferers. Capt.
Howard, of company I, is.amoog the killed.
Up to eleven o'clock on Wednesday morning
about thirty killed bad been takeo out, and
more are supposed to be beneath the wreck.
A train is on the way here wilb ninety two
wounded. Tbe impression at tbe scene is
that there have been from forty to fifty killed.
There seems to be but little doubt that the
bridge bsd been tampered wilb by malicious
or traitorous persons.
