THE BRECKINRIDGE NOMINATIONS.
That, portion of the Democratic party in
this county, who still permit n few Breckin
ridgers in this place nnd in the upper end,
who call themselves Democrats, to shape
things to suit theni.sclves, ami get possession
of u'.l the offices, held their convention in
the Court House, in this place, ou Monday
Inst.
For Congress, they put in nomination
that old Virginia racer, J. J. Kcimensnydcr,
who is determined to make another last
desperate attempt to get into office.
For Assembly, .7. Woods IJrown was nom
inated, ns a matter of course, as he w as
brought forward and supported by those
full-blooded rtrecUinridgcrs, David It. Mont
gomery and Charley Ilotteiistine.
For District Attorney, Solomon Malick,
Esq., of Sunlmry, wjw nominated. Mr. Ma
liek'H claims upon the Breckinridgers were
undoubted, lie was not only one of the
Ftrietest of the sect, but the redoubtable
"8am Patch"' of the Selinsgrovc Timet.
For Commissioner, James I'iland, of Up
per Augusta, was nominated over John
Eckman.
For Coroner, Charles Martin, .of Simbury.
For Auditor, the most important office
to the people, Mr. F.phraim I.ytel was nom
inated over Peter W. Gray. That Mr. (iray
was much better ipialitied than Mr. I.ytel,
was not doubted, but Mr. I.ytel was a
Breckinridger and Mr. (.iray was not.
Thus the small squad of Breckinridgers
have again got the office distributed
amongs themselves, and now call on the
Douglas Democrats, the only true Democ
racy, to fleet them.
THE
BHECKINRIDOERS
NO
DEMO-
CHATS.
It is generally conceded by the respecta
ble portion of the press that the meanest
little thing an editor w ill do, is to misrep
resent, instead of quoting correctly, from a
cotcmporary. This is the usual practice of
our Breckinridge neighbor of the ortiHuf
Ivrliiud County Dt mormt. Some, in charity,
attribute this to ignorance others to natu
ral proclivities, supposed to be peculiar to
editors in Dixie, and their sympathizers in
the North. Every honorable editor will
quote fairly the objectionable remarks of a
totemporary, and let his readers judge of
the correctness of his criticisms. But our
neighbor invents his facts to suit his com
ments, like the little boy who puts up his
play house, so that he can enjoy the plea
sure of knocking it dow n.
Mr. Purdy affects not to believe the story
of a landlord, near Mt. Carinc!, refusing to
give two weary suffering soldiers, on their
return home, anything to eat. mid concludes
with the following miserable falsehood :
' But why did not the Amkuh an piibiidi
"the name of the landlord, and w hy does he
"carry on the face of his article the lyiicj
"imputation that such is the sentiment and
'feeling of the Democratic party iu this
"county."'
To show that the above charge in regard
t he Democratic party is a vile fabrica
tion wc"Vlte the very words we did sav.
and tthicuoiC Breckinridge neighbor, hould
have done, had li.V principle- been any bet-

Now, unless our Breckinridge neighbor 1
onteiuls that he and his paper constitute
:he Democratic juirtr, he has not u shadow
if an excuse for his miserable falsehoods.
Hut this is tho hobby of these Breckin
idgeis. The moment you attack them and
heir hciesics they call it an attack on the
emocralic party. Is it not degrading to
lie memory of Jefferson and Jackson to
all such men Democrats?

Hon. F. W. Uremics ani Skchetahy
KewakI). The Hon. V. W. Hughes (hair
Innn of the Democratic State Central Com
mittee of Pennsylvania, addressed (secretary
Seward recently in regard to the c.ddresa
and the call for n mass meeting at Philadel
phia. We can only furnish short extracts
of the correspondence. Mr. Hughes says
that he encloses the two addresses of the
folate Committee, and n copy of this call,
w hich he adds have been denounced by lead
ing and iulhienrial journals as treasonable.
He therefore asks Mr. Seward to read them,
and pronounce judgment upon them as to
their being treasonable ; and he goes onto
say :
"If you will read one or both of the en-
j dosed addresses, and if, in connection with
I the facts I have slated in regard to their
! supporters, it will stimulate, you or serve
I you in any degree to promote n policy on
! the part of the administration of President
! Lincoln to put down the demon of aboli
tionism, iny sole ol licet, in addressing you
this (perhaps presumptuous note shall be
more abundantly obtained."'
The first half of Mr. Seward's letter is a
mere diplomatic recital of the call and of the
inquiries made by Mr. Hughes. But the
resl of his letter is so excellent that wc quote
it :
"You will allow me fo say that this nation
is now engaged, not in a political canvass
between opposing parties about questions of
civil administration, but in a civil war, car
ried on by opposing armies on an issue of
national life or death.
"If the revolution prevail, there w ill be no
questions if administrations left to settle.
It it fail, there will be time enough to settle
all such questions.
"I am not to dictate a course for others to
pursue in this crissis. But I must say for
myself, that neither us a public, officer floras
a citizen, can I know with favoror disfavor,
parties among the supporters of the United
States, any more than I can' make a distinc
tion between factions which unite in aiding
the rebellion.
"A nation, like an individual, ran do only
one thing effectually at one time. It cannot
wisely turn aside from the chase of the fear
ful demon of disunion to pursue any inferior
demon whether imaginary or real.
"I think the wrangles which occurred
among the Crusaders about their respective
creeds, when tliey sat down to the siege of
Jerusalem, were just as rational and just as
wise as disputes about abolition would now
be in the army of the Potomac in front of
Richmond. What is unwise in the camp at
such a moment cannot be w ise in the Cabi
net or in the assemblies of the people.
"I am occupied here cither in mediating
between (littering parties and jealous sects,
or else in watching and counteracting the
intrigues of traitors in Europe. But I some
times think that it, instead of being charired
with the-e duties, I were at liberty, as you
seem to be, to serve the country in my own
way, I could make an appeal to Democrat
mill Republicans. Abolitionist and slave
holders, in behalf, of our distracted country,
that would bring the whole people at once
underarms, and send treason reeling hack
into the den of darkness from whence it
sprung. I do not know how this would be,
but 1 do know that if I were in your place
I should trv.'

In the New York Tribune of last Wednes
day appeared a letter from Horace Greeley,
scolding President Lincoln for not carrying
out the Emancipation provision of the Con
fiscation act, and declaring that the timid
and conservative course of the President in
reference to slavery was injuring the Union
cause at home and in Europe. Tne Presi
dent thereupon replied as follows, through
the columns of the National luhlliijinea:
Kxecttive Mansion, )
Washington, Friday, August 22, lfl2. s
Hon. Hoit.MK CiliKK'.KV Dear Sir I
have just read yours oi the 10th instant,
addressed to myself through the New York
Trihir, r.
If there be in it any statements orassiinip
tions of fact which I may know to be
erroneous, I do not now and here controvert
them.
If there be any inferences which 1 may
believe to be falsely drawn, 1 do not now
ami here argue against them.
If there be perceptible in it any impatient
and dictatorial tone. 1 waive it in deference
to an old friend, whose heart 1 have always
supposed to be right.
As to the policy I "seem to be pursuing,"
as you say. I have not meant to have any
one in doiilJt. 1 would save the I num. I
would save it in the shortest way under the
Constitution.
The sooner the national authority can be
restored, the nearer the Union will be the
Union as it was.
If there be those who would not save the
Union unless they could at the same time
save slavery, I do not agree with them.
If there be those w ho would not save the
Union unless they could at the same time
destroy slavery, I do not agree with them.
My paramount object is to save the Union
ami not either to -ave or destroy slavery.
if I could save the Union without freeing
any slaves. I would do it ; mid if I could
save it by freeing all the slaves, I would do
it ; and if I could save it by freeing some
and leaving others alone, I would also do
that.
What I do about slavery and the colored
ruec, I do because 1 believe it helps to save
(his Union, and wh it I forbear, I fori tar
In cause I do not believe it would help to
save the Union.
I shall do less whenever 1 shall believe
what I am doing hurts the cause, and I shall
do more whenever 1 believe doing more w ill
help the cause.
I shall try to correct errors when shown
to be errors, and I shall adopt new views so
fast as they shall appear to be true views.

THE DBA FT FOR SOLDIERS.
The quota of Pennsylvania to make up
the 000,000 men called for by the President
is about 03,000. This number with the
number of men already In service would
make Pennsylvania's quota about 200,000
men. The population of the State is about
8,000,000, and the population of Northum
berland county about ilO.OOO. The propor
tion of the 200,000 men for this county,
therefore, would be about 2.000. Uf this
number about 1,100 arc already in the field,
leaving about 1100 to be furnished by draft
ing. The draft will be apportioned lo each
borough and township according lo its
population at the last census, in lb'00, giving
credit to each tor the voluntects already in
service. For instance, the ratio of Sunbury, j
w ith a population of about 2,000 in 1 HOD, I
would be about 1:W men. From this num
ber must be deducted the volunteers already
in the field from this place. These would
number about 120 men, but as some are
officers in the regular army, and others may
claim residence from other places, this nuin
lcr may be reduced to about 00, which
would leave about -10 for this place to be
tilled up by drafting. The number assessed
by Mr. Clark, for Sunbury, is about 2:10.
which w ill take almost every ninth person
assessed in this place. The above is not
given ns a strictly correct calculation, but
simply as an approximation of what it may
be from the data we have on hand.
Mr. Clark has since informed us, that the
number assessed in this place, together
with those already in sen ice, is nearly
400.

J-i?'" Wi:mkm. Pun. its. The follow ing
is a letter from this misguised but wonder
fully gifted man. It will be read by all as the
production of one of the most talented men
iu the Union, on a subject of the deepest im
portance. What appear most singular is,
that Wendell Philip, the great abolitionist,
and the Breckinridgers tire aiming at the
same object opposition to the Administra
tion of President Lincoln. We should not
be surprised to see oiirni ighborof the Brci k
ridge Dunoernf, hereafter standing up for
Philips. He is certainly, in every respect, a
better man than his old friend. Floyd. Like
him, he says, he is opposed to the Admin
istration but not the Government. Like
him he linds fault with the President on the
slavery question. Like him he claims to be
a Union man yet advocates party measures
and otheroutsidi: issues calculated to euibar-
ras the administration in prosecuting the
war. Who knows for what wi-e purpo-es
it has been decreed that the lion and the
Iamb should lie together:

fcsfA Anoi.moNisT. The Breckin
ridgers of this county, and more especially
their organ, the Aorthuinhrlitml County
JMniocnit, denounce the Union ticket as nn
ubolitiou ticket, and its supporters aboli
tionists. The question naturally arises what
is an abolitionist ? The editor of the to'
them Literary Mewniner, published at Rich
mond, thus settles the question. Now if
the Breckinridgers here endorse the V
ff r as good authority, which they will do
without doubt, they will necessarily find
many who do not "adore slavery as a divine
institution," and who are therefore aboli
tionists according to this detinition, thus
they will begin to think that they are al
most the only Simou Pure outside of
Dixie:-
"An Abolitionist is any man tvho does
not love slavery lor its own suke as a divine
institution; who docs not worship it as a
corner stone of civil liberty, who docs not
adore, it as the only possible social condi
tion on which a permanent republican jjtdv
crumenl can be created ; and who does not,
iu his inmost soul, desire to see it extended
aud perpetuated over the wholu earth, as a
means ot' human reformation second in dig
nity, importance and sacredncss alone to the
Christian relioion. "lie who does not love
African slavery w ith this love is an aboli
tionist." 3Loral Slftaivs.

In 1 union of the Went.
Washington, August 21.
Information has been received here from
various authentic sources, which confirms
the apprehensions that have been entertained
for some time, of an intention on the part of
the Kebels to invade the Western Stales
cither this month or next ; and the proba
bility now is that the invasion will be
attempted at once. The Itebel force in
Virginia has never been near as atr'ong as
has been iiepivscnted. Instead of having
three hundred thousand troops at and near
Kichmond during the famous Seven Days, it
is doubtful whether they had half that many
It was supposed that (.ieticral Jackson had
liftv thousand or sixtv thousand tnwms

1...1 it ; ....... 1..: 1 ,.iu..:..n.. 1.:. I
but it is now Hscertained officially that his
total force in that engagement was only
twenty-five thousand men. of all anus.
The wild stories of hii, now hn ing seventy
live thousand troops, nnd being engaged in
an expedition towards Harrisonburg, with a
view of gi ttiug in Hope's rear or attacking
him in Hank, arc wholly unfounded, lie
knows his own and l'opc relative sirngth
too well to run into such :i tr.'tp a- that
would prove to be. Vou may depend upon
it, so far from entertaining any idea of offen
sive movements towards Washington, the
liebels are sorely troubled about thesafdy
of Itiehni'ind. They havegot the impression
that Il.illeck has made up his mind to take
their Capital forthwith; that he had one
hundred thousand troops ready for th.it
service leiro the Peninsula was evacuated :
: that Md'h Han's annv and the new troops at
, Washington will make one hundred thousand
more: and that within another month there
will be a third hundred thousand troops at
Washington. They think I hat these three
hundred thousand troops will be pushed
down to Kichmond by the way of Gordotis-
i!!e.
Instead, therefore, of indulging any such
foolish dream as that of an attack on Wa-h-
i ington. they are diligently engaged in pre
paring for defence against such an attack.
I The forts around the city of Kichmond arc
j being enlarged and strengthened, and new
I ones are being built. Hut that is not all.
j The Kebels. arc determined that the l'nion
j forces shall never cross the Kapidan. while
' they shall tin. I a Chiekahominy in the North
I Anna, the South Anna, mid in each of the
four branches of the Matapony, if
Hdvnnce by the way of Kredcriek'sbur;
thev
. It
nci s
1 rannot be denied that the natural d
el
of Itichnioud arc very great, and the Kebels
have improved them to the utmost. The
issue of the I'cninsula campaign has demon
strated the almost insuperable obstacles that
lie in the way of an advance on the Kehel
capital by that route; and the exertions
which Ihe Kebels are making t" defend
Kichmond from attacks from the North,
show that the expeditions which arc now
moving "on to Kichmond,"' w ill have no
holiday task. Tie whole of the Kelu 1 army
recently at that city, is now concentrated on
the line of the Kapidan, and somewhere
near that line the first great battle will be
fought. If the Kebels feel strong enough.
thev will no doubt make the attack them 1
selves.
Ill such a case nothing is more probal
than thai Jackson should make a circuit to
the Wet. mid fall iinoii Pom's rcaror Hank.
while General Lee, with the main body of
the Kebcl force, attack him in the front,
Hut is doubtful whether the Kebels are
i strong eiloULfh for thai. A ureal many
i troops have been sent from Virginia to ioin
Hcauregird. in Kentucky. It is doubtful
whether they leave in front of Hope over
Hill. Olio troops, all told. This is enough to
deft ml Kichmond and to keep the l'nion
armv at bav until reinforcements arrive, but
it is not enough to assume the offensive with.
i no i.oi nieiii in inane net c, on apparem i
good authority, that the Kebels have in the
.. . .. .
West armies amounting to ;$.0,ri(li) men, and
that they intend with them to eradicate
every vestige of the 1'nion authority from
Tennessee uud Kentucky, and then to invade
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri, and
capture and sack Cincinnati. This may or
may not be (heir intention. It is certain
that thev have a very large force in the
W est, and that they will give us trouble in
Kentucky. The General-ill Chief, however,
has, no doubt, takcu measures to bailie their
designs, whatever they may be.

Professor lirownson addressed a large
crow d to-night, expressing himself ardently
iu favor of the Hresident's free black coloni
zation scheme. Apart from this, however,
he regarded emancipation us a necessary
war measure. The two races should be
geographically separated, for there could be
no i ii utility among them, nor did he desire
it. So tar, the defence of I lie coimtn has
been a voluntary act. but advocated a' draft
because it would thus be made a duly, the
foundation of true nationality. A nation is
never lost till manhood is extinguished. He
regarded this war not as a, judgment, but as
sent in mercy, lie ahould not despond, but
ever remember that wc haven countrv which

The loston Traveler of last evening ssvs :
Our correspondent connected with the
division of Oenfral MeCook, at liattle Creek,
Tmffiisec, furnishci us with tho following
authentic account of the terrible retribution
upon the inhabitants living near the scene
of the murder, by the Ohio Ninth
"The Ninth Ohio is a Oerman regiment
and was miser) by BrigadipT-(,eiiTnl Wil
lich, now commanding General Johnson's
brigade In oiir division. Thia regiment
were wholly devoted to General McCook ;
they loved him with all the ardor of tin'
German soul, and only waited un opportu
nity to attest their fidelity by the most hero
ic daring. To enrage such liien, is toensure
a terrible vengeance.
"And this they carried out upon the in
habitants of the country around the scene of
this cold-blooded murder. The next morn
ing the entire regiment, smarting under the
loss of the noble commander, and their raise
intensified by nursing their pnssion during
the previous night, proceeded to scour the
country.
'Kvcry citien they found they shot or
hung; every house they passed, unless posi
tive proof was given of their Union senti
ments, was burned to the ground with all
its contents, while the women and children
were compelled to stand by and see it
burn.
in mis way some seventy live eiti.cn
were made to pay the vindictive penalty for
this gcurrilla attack, and, undoubtedly,
many of them received a merited death.-'
Hut some, alas, it is feared, suffered w rong
fully the fearful punishment. Some sixty
houses were burned nl,,
'"It is not my nature to justify s(1, ), pr,,
feedings. Hut It an but leach' the peoph:
of Tennessee that in this war there can be
but two sides. They mu-t either hctorGoi!
or for the devil for the L'nion or for trea
son. There is no stand between. Those
who seek to occupy that position will in
variably rue the neutrality they have main
