"A sentiment not to be appalled, corrupted 'or
compromised. It knows no baseness; it cowers to
no danger; it oppresses no weakness. Destructive
only of despotism, it is the sole conservator of lib
arty, labor and property. It is the sentiment of
rreedom-, of cqual rights, of equal obligations•-the
law of nature pervading the law of the land."

The Election--A Last Appeal.
We issue this week's paper on Monday
evening. It will reach but few of our
readers, and to them, and to Democrats
generally, we appeal to stand by
the WHOLE TICKET. Under no cir
cumstances, scratch A SINGLE NAME,—vote
for EVERY NOMINEE, from the HIGH
EST to the LOWEST. This is your duty
as HONEST and FAITHFUL DEMOCRATS, and
we trust you will discharge it INDEPEND
ENTLY and FEARLESSLY. This STRICT FIDEL-
TY to your organization constitutes its row-
ER, makes its INFLUENCE, and insures its
SUCCESS. If any man approaches you with
a view to TRADING CANDIDATES, spurn the
offer, and 'HOLD FAST IO YOUR INTEGRITY.—
In this way you will retain your SELF
RESPECT and testify your sincere ATTACH
MEET to the eatxcletEs and time-honored
USAGES of the party.
Again we say, vote the WHOLE TICK
ET, and NOTHING BUT THE TICKET.
PRESIDENT LINOOLN AND FRE
MONT'S PROCLAMATION.
We clip the following editorial para
graph from the Pittsburgh Dispatch :
"President Lincoln has made no mistake
since he came into the Presidential chair
so great as that of interfering with the
proclamation of Gen. Fremont. We have
refrained all along from finding fault with
his war policy, or that of his Cabinet, but
the outspeaking of the people is unmis
takable. Could he but mingle among
them—not among Republicans only. but
among Democrats—he would feel that he
has committed a very grave error. It is
an almost universal sentiment, we believe,
that if any property of traitors and rebels
is to be confiscated, slave, above till, should
not be exempt."
The "Dispatch" is not the only Abolition
print that denounces Mr. Lincoln for man
fully insisting upon the observance of LAW.
Nearly every radical Republican paper we
have seen, and nearly every Republican
politician, and all "the little dogs," "Tray,
Blanche and Sweetheart," are denouncing
him or yelping at his heels. If Democrats
bespattered the President with half the
epithets some of his professed friends have
of late been applying to him, their necks
would need insuring. But then we should
remember that "the case being altered
alters the case ;" and as these utterances
and outgivings concerning the President
(which would a few weeks since have been
pronounced treasonable if they came from
Democrats,) are from members of his own
political household, they are all well and
proper enough. "Oh, consistency 1 thou
art a jewel 1"
For ourselves, we cheerfully accord to
Mr. Lincoln great praise for his firm and
patriotic adherence to the plain line of
his duty and the plain letter of law in
modifying the Fremont proclamation.—
lie is sworn to see the laws "faithfully
executed," and we are glad he has the
nerve and Jacksonian independence to do
it, regardless of the threats and clamor of
Abolitionists. It increases our faith in his
integrity and patriotism, and assures us
of his determination not to transcend his
legal and constitutional authority but in
cases of imminent public peril, and not, by
any of his official acts, to confirm the er
roneous impression too generally prevail
ing at the South, that this is a war Jro the
extermination of slavery.
ANOTHER COMPANY FOR THE WAR.
The "Pureley Home Guards," at present
under command of our gallant friend,
JOHN A. GosnoN, Esq., "are recruiting for
active service, and expect to join Gen.
HOWELL'S Regiment." There is every
probability of the company soon filling its
ranks. This company is composed of No.
1 men—men who are influenced by pure,
patriotic motives—and should they enter
the service, will give a good account of
themselves. The company will elect offi
cers after they have succeeded in procuring
a full complement of men. They will he
men of their own choosing.
"Little Greene" is doing nobly in the
struggle for the Union and Constitution.—
A second Company from Waynesburg, de
signed for Gen. HOWELL'S Regiment, left
for Camp Lafayette at Uniontown on Tues
day last. It is composed of vigorous and
gallant young fellows, and will do credit
to the county.
JEFFERSON FAIR
The Fair of the Jefferson Agricultural
Society, which comes off at Jefferson on
Thursday and Friday the 17th and 18th
hot., promises to be a highly creditable
exhibition, and will doubtless be attended
by "every body and his wife" or sweet
heart. The list of premiums is large, and
we trust our farmers, stock-growers and
nrchanics generally will contribute some
thing to the exhibition. It will certainly
b e the Fair of the season.
E RR oßs.—Several typographical blun
ders occurred in our editorials last week,
in some instances destroying the sense: as
"foul expressiox of disloyalty," instead of
aspersion, "work forth for" the ticket, in
stead of "work fieas,!: 4e.
-
"A THOUSAND THANKS."
It will be seen, by our receipts on sub•
scription in another column, that our pa
trons are nobly and generously respond
ing to our call for "material aid." To
all who have met our claims on them,
in whole or in part, WE TENDER OUR UN
FEIGNED THANES, and assure them of our
disposition to serve them to the very best
of our ability. To those who have not,
as yet, lent us any assistance, we may be
excused for saying that the demands against
us at present are quite large, on account
of the improvements in our paper and of
flee, and we hope they will not longer DE
LAY THEIR HELP. Send or bring US SOME
THING towards discharging your indebted
ness, be it much or little, and it will ena
ble us to PAT' OCR DEBTS. Remember this,
and show a becoming interest in your pa
per, for yours we consider it.
THE WAYNESBURG MESSENGER.
We have heretofore inadvertently omit
ted to notice the recent changes in that.
sterling Democratic journal, the Waynes
burg Messenger. The interest of J. G.
Ritchie, Esq., has been purchased by our
good-humored friend, Col. R. W. Jones,
fate of Pittsburgh, and formerly publisher
of the Cumberland Presbyterian at Browns
ville. Col. Jones is an energetic business
man, and the decided improvements in the
paper since his connection with it show
that he is familiar with the duties of a first
rate editor. The Messenger has been cloth
ed in an entirely new dress, and is now one
of the neatest, as well as one of the best,
papers on our exchange list. We wish
the new firm all manner of success, politi
cally and pecuniarily.
SErWc are indebted for the above flat
tering notice to our old and estimable
friend ECKER, of the Washington Examiner.
Making a capital paper himself, and full
of pluck and energy, brother ECKER ought
to know "a thing or two," (when he thinks
about it,) and evidently does in this in
stance. "Green be the turf above thee,"
noble youth!!
Brother SW AN of the "Review" also
pays us a compliment, but how the deuce
could he help it? Nothing like taste and
judgement, gentlemen,—zee always said so.
GREAT FRESHET.
Our Pittsburgh exchanges are filled with
details of the losses by the late sudden rise
in the Monongahela, Allegheny and Ohio
rivers, and their tributaries. The creeks
in this county were all much swollen, and
a great deal of property was destroyed.
At Pittsburgh, the "Post" informs us
"the fall of water was uninterrupted for
twenty four hours, and the rise of the
water was very rapid. The Monongahela
rose first, but in a few hours the Allegheny
commenced pouring down and the two
rivers joined their powerful currents into
an angry and destructive flood. On Satur
day afternoon the water was at 27 feet,
and it continued rising until it reached be
tween 26 and 30 feet.
All day on Saturday and Sunday the stir
face of the Allegheny was covered with
timber, shingles, oil in barrels, and other
property which had been lying along the
banks of the rivers not well secured. An
immense number of rafts of boards and
timber have been carried away.
In the lower part of Allegheny the
houses were submerged to the first floor and
the cellars filled with water.
The water was more than a foot deep on
Federal street at the end of St. Clair Street
Bridge, and the cellars in that vicinity are
filled with water. The dwellings all the
distance from the Aqueduct to the point on
the Allegheny side, have suffered more or
less.
The quantity of timber, which has gone
down the river, has been tremendous,
probably not less than fifty thousand dol
lars worth has been swept away and virtu
ally lost.
on the Monongahela a vast number of
coal barges have been swept away and lost,
the value of which, it is difficult to esti
mate.
The water was higher than at any previ
ous time since 1852. On Sunday morning
it commenced falling, and fell almost as
rapidly as, it had risen. By noon it had
gone down over two feet.
Immense masses of logs, timber and
rubbish accumulated upon the piers of the
bridges, but none of them were seriously
damaged.
The destruction of property has been
very great, but it gives us pleasure to say
that up to the present. time we have no
loss of life to record.
On Saturday evening the Allegheny was
covered with floating pumpkins, which re
called to all the remembrance of the cele
brated "pumpkin flood." It will be days
before the full extent of the damage done
can be ascertained.
The damage by this flood to property of
all descriptions is incalculable. We have
heard it estimated at over a million of dol
lars. When we hear from the oil regions
we shall probably learn of seriouslosses in
buildings and machinery, and the farmers
along the banks of the Allegheny have
probably suffered greatly."
DOCTORS OF .DIVINITY.
At the late commencement of the
Waynesburg College, the honorary de
gree of Doctor in Divinity was conferred
upon the following.named gentlemen: Rev.
WE. COLLIER, President of the Pittsburgh
Conference of the M. P. Church, Rev. C.
A. HoLstEs and Rev. ALBERT G. Wuxi/ins,
of the M. E. Church. These are the first
honors of tke kind conferred by this in
fant institution.
TO INVALIDS.
It will be seen, by his advertisement in
another column, that Dr. WHITTLESEY is
to make another professional visit to
Waynesburg early next month. The Doc
tor's skill and success are unquestionable,
and entitle him to a large degree of confi
dence. Chronic invalids, especially, would
do well to consult him.
DR. 8. S. PATTON, DENTIST,

DRY GOODS, &C.---J. W. BARKER & CO.,
59 Market street, are receiving a tremen
dous stock of seasonable Goods, and claim
to be able to sell as cheap or cheaper than
ever, notwithstanding recent advances in
Eastern Markets. Our old friend, J. C.
PRICE, Esq., formerly of Brownsville, is a
leading salesman in this house and a most
polite, upright and accomplished gentleman
at that. No one will regret buying Goods
of him or this firm, which is, in every way,
perfectly reliable.
FANCY AND VARIETY GOODS. -- SCOTT,
STURGEON & Co., No. 62 Wood, corner of
Fourth, have a heavy and admirably se
lected stock of Notions, which they are
selling at astonishingly low prices. They
do a large business in this and adjoining
counties, and deserve to do more. Look to
their advertisement in another column.

VENETIAN BLINDS.—GEO. P. WERTZ, 72
Market, corner of Third, has the most ele
gant, varied and substantial Blinds manu
factured in the city, and does more busi
ness than all other makers. His thorough
practical knowledge of the business, his
moderate prices, and unblemished integrity
have secured him almost a monopoly of
the trade.
EATING HOUSE. —Our old friend and
townsman, 3fARKER RUSH, has opened a fine
Restaurant at 397 Liberty Street, near the
Pennsylvania Depot, and is crowded with
customers half the time. His steaks are
all tender and savory, his dishes generally
would tempt an epicure, and Huai) pro

and he ought to know.
DENTISTRY. - CALVIN KING, NO. 47
Smithfield street, is a capital Dentist, and
does his work at reasonable prices. If in

THE DOLLAR STORE.- .I. UPTON, at the
Dollar Store, No. 56 Market street, gives
you three times as much for your money
as dealers generally. His stock of Jewel

Oysters every day.
Dr. F. BARDEES.—This gentleman has
opened an office iu the Girard Building on
Smithfield street, and has within a few
weeks secured a very large practice and is
performing some wonderful cures. We
ourselves witnessed one or two astonishing
cures of most obstinate cases in the brief
space of ten days. Chronic invalids would
do well to try the Doctor's skill.
SENATOR DOUGLAS' GRAVE.
Among the new objects of interest shown
to the stranger in Chicago is the grave of
Senator Douglas. On a broad and slightly
elevated plain near the beautifill grounds
which he consecrated to the Baptist Society
for their college, in memory of the first
Mrs. Douglas, itself a monument to his
generosity and noble affection, and on the
very spot where he had anticipated build
ing a mansion to enjoy a long life, a mound
is now raised over the remains of the great
statesman. Only a few months before his
death a gentleman in the neighborhood
wishing to negotiate with him for some of
his real estate, at that time quite exten
sive, was told that in that beautiful corner
lot he expected "to build a mansion after
his own heart" where he and his family
might live in comfort and happiness.—
Near enough to read the inscription on the
marble the traveler now passes by, look
ing not on the mansion, but on the last
resting place of the dead Senator.
LITERARY.
The Atlantic Monthly for September has
reached us with its rich store of varied
contents. The Atlantic is a valuable peri

public. Ticknor & Feilds, Boston, Masa.
A SERENADE.—We take pleasure in
acknowledging a very complimentary ser
enade last night from the "Temple Mar
tial Band" of Waynesburg. The music
was most excellent and being somewhat
of a military turn we always took great
delight in good martial music. This band
is composed of ten or twelve of the noble
spirits of the glorious little "State of
Greene," headed by the gentlemanly Reg
ister and Recorder, and celebrated Fifer
of Greene couoty, Capt. J. F. Teseple.—

1A gentleman in Lansing, Michigan,
who has kept as accurate an account as
possible, estimates that, of thirty-three bat
tles and more important skirmishes since
the war began, the Union men have been
victorious in twenty-two, the rebels in five,
while in the remaining six, neither party
can claim a victory. The number of pris
oners taken by the Unionists, is about 3,-
200, and by the rebels not quite half as
many. Of the killed, it is impossible to
obtain anything like accurate knowledge
of the losses of the rebels. The Union
loss is something over one thousand; and
the rebel loss is believed to be more than
twice that number.
THE ROMNEY AFFAIR.—A letter to the
Wheeling "Press" states that in the recent
attack on Romney by the Federal troops,
some one hundred and fifty of the rebels
were killed and wounded in the skirmishes
that took place while they were following
up the Union forces. Only two of our men
were killed, two drowned, two badly and
fourteen slightly wounded. clue of the
printing offices was destroyed, and the oth
er brought to New Creek. The Colonel
gave orders, when entering Romney. that
if any soldier entered a private dwelling
to disturb the inmates, he should be instant
ly shot.
WlZ — Fifty children, boys and girls, were
sent last Monday, from New Fork to the
Wes.., under the auspices of the 'Juvenile
Asylum near the High Bridge. They had
enjoyed the discipline and training of that
institution for several months, and they
are to be given homes and employment in
Illinois, where they will be indentured un
der a special act of the Legislature of that
State, confirming thearticles of apprentice
ship entered into at the Asylum named.
air Fort Lafayette contains eighty-one
prisoners, guarded by eighty-two soldiers.
The former are confined in the casemates,
some of which are very much crowded, the
gun itself occupying a large space, with the
beds distributed around it. These quarters
will not be very comfortable in the winter,
since the casemates must be kept open in
order to work the guns, and thus a free
circulation of euld air will be admitted.
SerL. D. Boone, of Chicago, sometime
ago promised to give the wife of the first
Chicago volunteer who was killed in bat
tle, a lot worth six hundred dollars. He
publishes a card saying he will make good
his promise as soon as he can ascertain
who the first man was that, having a fam
ily, was killed at the seige of Lexington.
He will give the widow her choice between
a lot in Chicago, or forty acres of good
land.
SAD MORTALITY.—One of the saddest Ca
ses, says the Boston Transcript, of mortal
ity, that has come to our notice, is found
in the Millet family which resides in Mi
not, within a radius of two miles. The
family has lost fourteen children by dip
theria, within the past few months; and
not a single child or person of any other
family in the vicinity or town has died of
this disease.
Major H. F. Clarke, formerly of
Brownsville, Chief of the Commissary's
Department in Gen. McClellan's stall, was
married on Tuesday to a daughter of Col.
Taylor of the Subsistence Department.—
The bride is a niece of ex-President Taylor.
The ceremony took place in Rev. Dr. Hall's
church, and among the witnesses were
Gens. Scott and McClellan, and other mili
tary notables.
DEATH FROM A RATTLESNAKE BITE.-At
the agricultural exhibition at Dayton, 0..
on last Friday, a man, named John Heild
was bitten by a rattlesnake that was on
exhibition in a private tent. Heald went
in to see it, and in some way let his finger
get too close to the reptile, and it struck
its fangs deep into the ball of his forefinger.
He died in a few hours.
FATAL Acc IDENT.—On Sunday evening
last, the body of James Anderson, an old
and well known citizen of Bridgeport, oppo
site Wheeling, was found at the bottom of
the hatchway in his wholesale liquor house
with life extinct, He is supposed to have
fallen through the hatchway whilst partly
intoxicated. lie was quite a wealthy man,
and bachelor.

A Compliment for Vallandigham.
Among the effects in a " contraband"
trunk seized in Cleveland, were found vat.-
tons letters from a "Secesher" in Nashville
to his wife, who had been seeking a safe
retreat at the North. In one letter the
" Secesher" talks thus:
I see by your letter that you thought
Richmond in great danger of being taken
by old Scott, and that you did not want
me to take the chances. What say you
now? When do you think it will be taken
and by whom ? As old Scott is now de
funct, I suppose the Ohio Chief, McClel
lan, is the next man to go to Richmond.--
But I can assure you that there is but one
man in Ohio that will ever get to Rich
mond of his own free will, and that is
Vallandigham. A man like him can go
where he pleases.—[Cleveland Herald.
