To Unjon Leagues. —Several officers of the various Union Leagues.in the county hav ing written os ashing for further suggestions touching, tbs duties of the Leagues, we tabs this method of laying before them some of the more important duties reqaired at their hands; Ist—The division of their respective election districts into 'convenient neighborhoods, and the appointment of live men in each snob sub district. whose duty it shall be to furnish teams and see to it-tbat every Union voter is got to the polls before 3 o’clock in the afternoon. 2d—The appointment of challengers to be in attendance atnbe polls, from the’time of open-- ing until the time of closing. “• ■ 3d—The appointment of a .Committee to mako out a complete list of the Union voters in the election district; and to check off each name as the owner votes.

Tas Chicago platform declares for an armis tice—a suspension- of-hostilities, that is—and then peace through compromise. Let ue see: . There was a blank suspension - of. hostilities on the part of the Government, from the mid dle of December, 1801, until the bombardment of Sumter in April, 1861. How was it with the rebels f The rebels, as every Intelligent man knows, wero planting their batteries against Port Sum. ter daring this whole time. They were per forming all the essential acts of open war. During a great part of this period of armis tice on our part, and of open war on the part of oor “southern brethren," a " Peace Confer ence” was in session in the city of "Washing ton. What was the object of this “Peace Conference ”? And how came it to be in sess ion ? Briefly, then-, the Peace Conference was com posed of prominent men, appointed by the Ex ecutives of the several States favorable to such a Conference, without distinction-of party; and the object of the Conference was the amic able adjustment of the difficulties which men aced, .and have since resulted in civil war. ■ If a suspension of hostilities and a Conven tion the States could have averted war, we sub mit that then was the golden opportunity. Every loyal State sent delegates to that Con ference. Maryland, 'Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee, and perhaps North Carolina, seat delegates to that Conference. But the other Slave States stood aloof. Sooth Carolina.even refosed to send her Senators to take part ’ n Congress. Meanwhile the Conference was working vig orously to perfect a compromise which Should satisfy both parties, and disperse the rising clouds of civil war. 'The conference proposed to change the Constitution so as to give new guarantees for the existence, spread, and per petuity of slavery. . . The rebels continued’vigorously at work at the siege of Fort Sumter. . They captured ar senals, forts, and Custom Houses, the property of the United States. They did these acts of open war, be it remembered, while a Conven tion mainly composed of delegates from loyal States, but in which all the_ States were urged to participate, was offering most liberal terms of peace through compromise. Look at these facts candidly and dispassion ately.' The McClellan patty demands a sus pension of hostilities, and a Convention of the States, as preliminary to peace. -The South has felt the hard lash of desolating war and the mortification of dofeat for nearly four years. Its leaders are; of coarse, maddened "and in* tractable. They .rejected the olive branch ere the Government'had lifted Its hand j ; when it THE TIOCtA COUNT Y AGITATOR. lay, in the person of James Buchanan, a stupid, weak, and imbecile tool of the thpm selvee. The South was then without any ex traordinary degree of passion. It had chafed itself into'a species of frenzy, but it had no especial cause of anger against the Govern ment. Then,.if ever, jt might have accepted compromise. It rejected compromise under those favorable circumstances.' Is it reasona ble—ia it not unreasoning folly, father!—to expect the rebel chiefs to accept propositions of peace and union now that their passions arc inflamed, their, pride- wounded, and their lands reduced to sterility ’by the fire and brand of -war? | "We apprehend that the expectation of peace tbrongh compromise is as utter madness as that which burled the South into the grasp of this terrible war. Peace can only come through the fearful persuasion of decisive battle I SEPT. £B, 1864. But other offers of accommodation were ten dered the South before the Government resort ed to coercion. . •Thc'jDnttendcn Compromise measures were, adopted by the House and sent to the Senate early in the session, of '6O-61. They were re jected by the Senate by the small majority of 3. Yet, at that very time, the South Bad a majority in that body. What are the facts: Tbe facts, are these: Six . Senators sat in their seats and refused to vole.’ But for their refusal to vote against the Clark amendment; the Crittenden Compromise weald have been adopted. The failure to adopt that Compromr ise, then, rests upon tbe shoulders of those six men. Is it not so ? - Those Senators were—HVmpfoT? andWigfaU of Texas, Iverson, of. Georgia,-Slidell and Ben jamin, of Louisiana-, and Johnson, of Arkan sas. Every one of them. REBELS TO-DAY I Nor is this all. President Lincoln, before e single hostile foot trod the soil of a rebellious Stat?, called nponfthe Sooth to abandon its hos tile attitude and return to its allegiance. The rebel chiefs declared that they would have in dependence, or war. . The Sonth never proposed to compromise the difficulty. It set oat with a declaration of i n dependence, and broadly atated its ultimatum as involving nothing less than complete and ir revocable separation. Disunion was the price of peace then ; it is the Southern demand to this day. "What, then, is to .be done? Is there any considerable number of men in. the North, eo utterly vile, so ehamdessly craven, as to med itate a purchase of peace at that ruinous price ? ~' 'Lst-every man serlooslyconsider these mat ters. Each freeman mast rote for disgraceful surrender and a divided country,,or for honor able war, through which the integrity of the republic will be secured forever. Gen. Sheridan, ob "will ba seen elsewhere, has completely routed and destroyed the rebel army in the Shenandoah, in two pitched bat tles. Tho news came too late for last week’s paper. It also came too soon for the comfort of the Coppers hereabout. Verily, tbs Valian-" digham “ mourners go about the streets.” Sheridan killed two birds with one bullet. He has routed Early in his front and the Cop perheads in the rear. One of them,said in onr streets, after the news of Sheridan's second vu-» tory came, that he had concluded to go to £1 That would be in the nature of a return' to Erst principleo. Facilis descensus Atenti, - - ■When Copperhead, orators proclaim that the election of McClellan will, reduce the burden of taxation,.they either mean peace through dis graceful 'surrender to Jeff, Davis, or RZm>u of the Public Debt, or both. That their The Chicago platform answers that question. It means unconditional surrender to rebellion or it means nothing. Its candidate is pledged to that, or he is pledged to nothing. He stands on that platform, or he stands on nothing. THE TICKETS are printed, and ready for distribution. Candidates are expected to call and got, and to.eee that they are placed in the hands of careful and reliable men in each dis trict IMMEDIATELY. The Union Leagues are expected to out, fold, and pack the votes before the day of election. There are SIX BALLOTS IN THE FULL TICKET. WATCH FOE, FKAUDULENT TICKETS. We are dealing with desperate men. 'Tas 1 New York papsrs-of Saturday publish rumors of a proposition by Jeff. Davis to sur render and return to the Union, conditioned on preserving the status of Slavery as it exists to day ; that is, slavery to attach to the negroes within rebel lines, and those freed by 'our ar mies to remain free. ■ It is hardly necessary to soy that, the wholo thing is a Wall street canard, gotten np to af fect the price of gold and stocks, and to influ ence the elections, possibly,' The loyal North will accept nothing short of an unconditional surrenderjfrom the rebel chiefs,. Grant, Sher man, Sheridan, and Farragut are the Peace Commissioners on the part of this Government. BEWARE OF OTHER COPPERHEAD YARNS JUST ON THE EVE OF TfiE OC TOBER ELECTION! The Williamsport Bulltlin, in placing Mr. Wilson's name at the head of Its ticket, among other good words, says: • “ Id Sir. Wilson we hare a candidate who Is universally popular among the people. Ho haa stood firm In tho advo cacy of Republican principles from the first organization of the party.

That parly Las not had a Presidential candidate since Yan Buren, who did not owe one-third of his vote to just such a private or rangement as the Hews discloses. promise of a reduction of taxes means Repu diation may be safely ..inferred, from the fact that Jefferson Davie, whose work.they are do ing, is the Father of Repudiation. He has a European reputation in that respect, The 'patriotic men and women of the North, who have so nobly come forward with their money to the aid of the Government in its day of need, have really to choose between Lincoln "and financial prosperity, arid McClellan and financial ruin, through repudiation. We desire to call the attention of Republic ans to the fact, that the Copperheads of this county are throwing their entire strength into the local contest, for the purpose of defeating Mr. Wilson for Congress. They intend to try the plan of trading every candidate on their ticket for votes for Wright, Wilson's Copper head opponent. The election of such a man as Wright would be.hailedasa great victory by the Jeff. Davis sympathizers everywhere. Now; we cite attention to this contemplated trick, not from any distrust of the Union mass es; hot to warn the thoughtless against this new device of the devil, to be employed by bis faithful, agents, the Copperheads. Trading on election day is a vile business. Any man who offers to vote for any candidate on the Repub lican ticket in consideration of a vote for any candidate on the Copperhead ticket, advertises himself as an unprincipled trickster, whoso word is worth nothing when given. No honest man will propose sueba trade, no man of prin ciple will be a party to such a corrupt bargain. Every candidate on the Republican' ticket can and will receive an overwhelming majority of the whole vote of Tioga county. Majority parties- never find it necessary to traffic and trade at the polls. Minority parties do that sort cf thing, when they can find anybody green enough to trade. We have no fears that tbs trick will work in Tioga, but it is a part of our duty to strip the cloak, from the faction opposed to .the Government, and leave their repulsive rascalities to the searching analysis of dlaylight. - Last Thursday, a lugubrious procession of about 40 Valtandighammers, departed from Wellsboro for the long advertised Mass Meet ing at Mansfield. It appeared to be the result of great effort. The victory of Sheridan over the rebel army under Early, in the Shenandoah, operated as a wet blanket npon the disciples of that eminent martyr, Saint Tallandigham. Whether the mountain ait revived their droop ing spirits, or not, we cannot say, as we neither went nor sent a reporter, j Briefly, the meeting assembled as per notice.
