TIOQA BOYS, BALLY!
We print elsewhere' ‘"the patriotic proc
lamation of Governor Curtin, calling upon the
people of the old Commonweath to raise twen
ty-one new regiments and fill np the old ones
now decimated by sickness and death. Three
companies are to be raised {from this county,
and although this is more (than onr share as
compared with other connties, nevertheless it
is our duty to raise them promptly. Our peo
ple are already alive to the work as may be
seen by the accounts of the War Meetings
which we print in onr other columns. When
these three companies shall jhave been ‘ raised,
(and the indications are that they wiH he raised
within ten days,) wo shall then be the Banner
-County for the War, U we have been the: Ban
ner Connty for Freedom.
—We point with pride to ihe proceedings of
the War Mass Meeting bald in the Court House
in this Borough, on Tuesday night last, and the
consequent action of the County Commission
ers.’ It wilt be eeen that the Cosnty has offered
a bounty of $5O to be raised by loan, to every
volunteer who shall be swoijn into, tb,e service,
.until the three hundred called for from this
Connty, shall have been entailed; This patri
otic donation of $15,000 involves the necessity
of issuing certificates to represent this loan, in
sums of hot less than $5O, bearing seven per
cent, interest, and reimbursable in' four; equal
annual instalments from the date of issue. ‘The
necessity of' this action was Immediate' and
pressing. More than one handled recruits hath
within the pasttwoweeka gone to Corning and
Elmira, and taking advantage of the liberal
bounty offered by the Governor of New York,
have enrolled - their names there, instead' of
here.' More than three hnndred men did so
under the Second call, making an aggregate of
over four hundred men from this County who
ought to be numbered among the troops of the |
Old Commonwealth, who are not. '
Citizens of Tioga County, you who bavemon
ey to Uhd, show ydnr patriotism by taking this
loan. Let it.be done promptly and. cheerfully,
for without a Government,-your, wealth is as
nothing. The country demonds sacrifices from
all her children;-bat hero-is'an opportunity to
servo her without ‘much sacrifice. We trust
that every dollar will be taken in the county,
and that too, immediately, ileantime, let every
man who can, repair at once to Wellsborougfa,
Tioga, or Etkiand,'where recruiting offices and
camps have been establisheid; adder the new

filled. * : 'i

rigpr and energy, until the rebellion is utterly crasnad,
the integrity of the Ufliob in' all itef restored,
and every rebel reduced to submission, or driven from
the land, and that to accomplish these ends we pledge
to onr rulers onr faith, oitr fortunes and onr lives.
7. Resolved, ■ That’ the course of the Hon. David
WHmbf, in the United States Senate, is manly, con
sistent and eminently 1 patriotic, and we hereby en
dorse him as a truaand faithful representative Of the
loyal people of this State. . ■ ■ ;
Tonr Committee believe ,that “to punish traitors
and treason with fitting'severity,” in the language of
the first of these Resolutions, toe policy of the Gov
ernment should bo rigorous; using all the means
within its power to tins end; that among other acts,
we endorse most henatily the measures for the confis
cation of the property of rebels and the emancipation
and arming of toe sieves of rebels,arid *s these reso
lutions embody the patriotic spirit of toe Resolutions
passed by toe.RspnUicMi County Convention which
met last August at Tioga, and of the Union Conven
tion which met at Wellsboro last Ssptember,|ice call
upon all men to forget party name* for the pretext v and
rally upon'the broad and patristic platform tons pre
sented by toe Peoples’ State Convention.'
The citizens o£ County who believe in the
sontiments above enunciated, are therefore requested
without reference to party names to meotiu the several
election districts, at,the usual places for holding elec
tions on Saturday, the X6th day of 1 August, between
