The Late Copperhead Convention and its
Candidates. •
We have scarcely referred to the do Inge of
this august bcidy, says the Pittsburg Gazette, ex
cept to suggest that it had, • by a singular acci
dent, selected both its candidates from the
Winch of the Supreme Court. It'could not have,
foand a place perhaps where there was less
virtue, or more devotion to party. It had proved,
its men already, by the disfranchisement of the
soldier. It knew that there was other work for
them still, and the products of its labor was a
brace of copperheads, of the most malignant
and venomous type, , drawn froaa that repertory
of genius. But who and what'are they ?
The first is Wosdwarcl, who appeared above
the horizon abant "the period of the Reform
Convention of 1837, as a Free Trade theorist of
the Calhoun school, and an advocate of =a
twenty-one years' residence for the foreigner.,
whose support h 3 is now reckoning upon. 7or
the former, Polk nominated him as a diarige of
the Supreme Court of the United States, but the
Senate couldn't see his merits, and accordingly
rejected him. The Democracy took compassion
on him, as a hopeful politician la distrtss, and
broke his fall by assigning him a place on the
Bench of the Supreme Court of this State, where
be has been sincenursing his venom—specula 2
ting in stocks—and only eluting out _occasion
ally to suwhimself, when there was opportu
nity for mischief.
The opening of the rebellion was such a one,
and he did not fail to improve it. His speech,
at the meeting in Independence Square, just
after the secession of South Carolina, when he
threw off his judicial robes, and appeared on,
the stand with au elaborately written argumen
was one that disgraced his ermine, and ought
to have unfrocked him as ,a judge, even if his
previous conduct In the Allegheny Bond cases
had not disclosed his utter unworthiness for
such a position. It was a studied apology for
the retellion —a regular vilification of the North,
and a correspondent glorification of the.Sout/t.
If he has ever changed his mind, or taken back
a syllable of what he uttered there, we are not
aware of It. That he has not, is proved by hirS
nomination for Governor, and the request that
he will continue to hold his place on the bench,
unless that request is to be taken as evidence
that they had no expectation of electing him.
• And this want of confidence seems. to .be
equally proved by the re-nomination of the
pedant, and 'egotist, and apostate Whig, who,
has been playing at the office of Chief /indica
for the last few years and helping, almost as
largely as Woodward himaelf, to bring that
Court into its present disrepute. It is scarcely
to be believed that if there hadbeen any hcOS
of success, there should have been nobody
even to cantest the nominations_with a candi
dste so universally unpopular with the pro
feasters and the people.: He has done, how
ever, what he could to deserve it, by deciding
that the soldier `shall not - vote—by hie charge
to a Chester county.jury, and by appearing on
the stand at the copperhead meetings in Phila'
delphia, and contributing with his pen to cop
perhead newspapers,
Both be and Woodward , will, however, suit
us admirably as candidates, in this region of
the State, with the record they have made in i
the treatment of the Bond cases here, and their
arbitrary deallogs with the councils of our
city, and thUcammissioners of this and other
western counttes. - 'The friends of the Union
and the war have occasion to rejoice that they
have been singled out as the victims, in the
• impending struggle at the ballot box. It would'
have been impassible 'for the rebel sympathizers
to have selected two worse or weaker men. If
they are not beaten, it will not be • the fault 'of
the Barrisburg Convention.

Ex-Senator Rice on the Duty of Demo..
ram
We find in the ;Codho - n e;atuinan, published
at Faribault, ,Minnesota, a letter from the Hon.
H. U. Rice, k:ddrused to some cilizzus of that
place, defining what his position is and what
at of all Democrats ought to bs on the war
goes - don. We make the following extract:
"The thought of acting with any other than
the Democratic party never entered my head.
The whole object of the rebellion is to destroy
the principle of Demccracy. The party which
stands by the Government is true Democracy.
Every soldier in the army is a true Democrat.
Every man who lifts his head, above party
trammels is a Democrat, and every man who
permits old issues to stand in the way of a vig
orous prosecution of the war, zannot, in my
opinion, have any claims an the party. If the
city was on fire would you call on any particu
lar party to extinguish the flames? or would
you stop to examine its character 'for fear that
you'rarght violate some .of its provisions - by
taking water from your neighbors' wells?
Should (Beater befall oar cOuntry in the
struggle for life, true Democrats cannot be
blamed. Those who have the power and do not
use it to the fullest extent s -and those who are
wasting their time and distracting the people
by the idle discussions, will occupy no enviable
position hereafter, Union br no - Union.
"I am.for regaining and retaining, every foot
of soil we ever possessed; without any compro
mise whatever.'!

We know no , respectable religious- newspa
per in the loyal States, that 'has said. so little
about the civil war now raging, as the 'Messenger
of. the German Reformed church, issued at

ghambersbing, Pa. Since the second invasion
of -Pennsylvania, however, the editors of that
paper have exposed the robberies and brutal!-

I ties of that army partially restrained-by *their
officers ;.,and in their last number is a' clear
condemnation of the rebellion, as we will show
by two extracts: The cause for which the hi
, .
surgents are striving, is not yet • advanced .
to:
But, as far as it goes, the Messenger truly says:
" Foremost among abounding-iniquity, must
we place the rebellion•itself. This is the great
iniquity of the times in this country, because
it •ia a deliberate attempt to set aside the diiine
authority of the civil government, and thug it .
is a rebellion against God as well as against the
Government. With the masses orthe South it
is doubtless, to : e large•extent, the result of igr
norance and excitement ,. but "with the leaders
it has been a crime of cool calculation. The
immense Buffering. which they have brought
upon themselves, as wall as upon the who'e
,land, has shown that the authority of civil,
government is not a thing to be resisted with
out incurring the penalties pronounced ageinst
'all such offenders in God's word : They that
;resist shall receive to themselves damnation
.Let churches take warning. The - war, on 'the
part of the Government, is a necessity: We
must maintain `the laws, even:. with life 'and

:they give life and treasure, they lose not also
'their souls "
"Wax no MAN LOYAL," said Gen. Roussemt, in
his recent speech in Philadelphia, "who stands'
between the. Government and thf+ suppression
of the rebellion." General Rousseau is a sol
dier fn the army —a representative of slave
bolding Kentucky—one who has proved his
patriotism upon every-great battle field in the
Southwest.- We need no better or more disin
terested authority or courant. The test which
he offers every honest man will accept, "In
1 this war," said Douglas, "there can be brit two
parties; one -for the Government, and one'
against it," friends or foes. This truth ;the
loyalists, of the South are constantly. teaching

,Wood, Seymour and Woodward make us be-
litwe that Roueseau is wrong ? Yet Rousseau;
,
and the great army 6f the West, who melte
the same uncompromising test of loyalty, would
,be called, we presume, by our constitutional
disloyaliste, "minions of the administration,"
and "lovers of the negro."
TEE Copperheads are opposed to enlisting Cr
reinforcing the army -for fear. the 'war will be
brought to a close, and the soldiers come home
to vote. They dread the closing .of the ;war,
the- suppression of the rebellion and thoretrirn
of the soldiers, more than they do pestilence
and famine I They know it will be a sorry day
for them when the seven hundred thoutiand
soldiers return. Therefore prolong the war,
keeP the army`weak, and unable to give the
rebellion a - final blOiPtintil alter the next
Presidential election, 44ifcl , a1 Copperhead may be
elected, if the soldiers - are 'not at home to vote.
Wier Dolem tar Itairom Y—We are frequently
asked why Judge Woodward, the candidate for
Governor, does notresign the-place -he holds on
the bench of-the Supreme Court. We presume
there are two reasons, for this. In the first
place, a Locofoco„was never known to let go the
public. teat so long as he could hold on to it, or
so long as it would yield anything in the shape
of money or itri equal; and in the - Second place,
Copperhead as Woodward. is, we . have no idea
that he is foolish enough Jo suppose-he-has any
chance for being elected Governor.
A FACT roa Corprastaans.--Mr.. Hurley, a
Union. refugee from Rockingham county, Va.,
Who a few short months ago, Was independent,
but now penniless, and - compelled to flee into
Ohio to save his life, says: "I hear some men
talk of military despotism and arbitrary arrests,

'The postmaster at Fairview, Todd county,

General Burnside at Lexington, Sy.
Major General Burnside is in Lexington.—
The Observer says he was serenaded one evening,
and when the music ceased, in response to loud
calls for him, the General appeared, and on be
ing introduced by,Colonel Worley, three lusty
cheers greeted'him, with a proposition from
senia:one,in the:cfowd to give him a hundred
more. He thanked the people for their kind
demonatration toward ; said he was -no
speaker, and Brow who had come to hear him
with the expectancy of being interested, would
perhaps go away disappointed. Bat notwith
standing this-deolaration, he did succeed in in
teresting an immense crowd during, the short
time be spoke. He alluded to the fact that he
had been a Breckbiridge man in the last great
Presidential campaign; stating that he was as
sincere and honest in that position then, because
he deemed it right, as he was in his devotion to
the Union now, a cause in which he was enlisted
heart and soul.
He stated that martial Jaw had been declared
in this State preceding the recent election in
view of the fact thit an invading foe was on its
borders, and with a design to give all loyal men
a chance to cast their suffrages unmolested.—
The disloyal had no right to approach the bal
lot-box,-and therefore haveino right to complain.
He complimented Kentucky in a highly flatter
ing manner, stating that he had found it the
most loyal State in-hiaDepartment, and had so
reported at Washington: lleltad found more
strictly loyal men here' than in Ohio or Indiana,
though the latter was his birth-place. We shall
not, however, , attempt to give his speech,
though brief, lest` we may do him injustice, for
we took no notes: The most of those who heard
him seemed not only pleased with his soldierly
appearance, but with what he said, and to en
tertain the fulleet confidence in him as a com
mander.
Since his assumption of the command of the
Department of Ohio, General Burnside has had
heavy duties to perform. - In the absence of his
Ninth Army Corp, Morgan has invaded Ken
ticky, Indiana - and Ohio, and in his wake has
followed the Lonisana chief, Scott ; yet, under
his guidance; the Union troops have nobly suc
ceeded. General Burnside is evidently doing
his whole duty! to the best of his ability, and
the people honor him for it.
