The Health of Governor Curtin.
We quote the following paragraph from the
_Montgomery Ledger
.ILLNESS of aOVERNOB. CULTEN.—Governor
Curtin is lying at Harrisburg seriously ill. He
was in feeble health last summer but the ex- -
citement of the election campaign gave him
artificial strength. Since the termination of
the canvass, reaction( has set in and completely
prostrated him. His physicians find it ritcessary
to keep him perfectly quiet, and permit'no one
to see him except on the most urgent business."
order to put at rest any apprehenelon
which may arise from such .statemerits, we ate,
enabled to assure the friends of Gov. Curtin
throughout the Commonwealth and the Union,
that his health, instead of being alarminely
is cheeringly improving, and that he is now not
only regaining his strength, but he is fast acqui
riog h physical vigor which he has not possessed
for the past threeears. His official labors cer
tainly did prostrale him,to an alarming degree,
while the excitement of the campaign through
which he has just so triumphantly passed, did
impair his health to a large extent, etillteithei
the friends or the physicians of His Excellency
ever despaired of his final full recovery. We
expect, in a few days, to see Gov. Curtin resume
his official labors with this zeal and energy
which characterized his adMinistrition daring
the stirring scenes of the past three years ; and
we feel confident that"his - health will soon be
such as to enable him fully and successfully to
discharge every trust iniposed upon him by his
high official duties. It would be well, there
fore, for our brethren of =the press to remove
any apprehensibn on the, subject" by repeating
this announcement.
The County Committee
Blom the final adjournment of the Dauphin
County Union Committee, the Chairman of the
Sub-Committee on Finance reported that the
accounts of the Chairman of the County Com
mittee had been fully examined and that the
same were correct, when, on motion, It was
&solved, That the thanks of the County Com
mittee be tendered to its Chairman, Henry,
Thomas, and its Secretary, Sullivan 8. Child,
for the alacrity and efficiency with which they
co•operated with the committee in the c,ampb.ign
that has just so gloriously terminated. To the
efforts of these gentlemen, we are indebted for
much of the influence which contributed to
our success in this county on the 18th of Onto
ber,and we deem i t only jast,thereore,that those
services be thui promptly recognized and en
dorsed. .
—The above'resolution was unanimously'
adopted by the' County Comrnittee' -before its
final adjournment, and we consider it righ t that
the same be laid before our readErs. Messrs.
Thomas and Child, the Chairman and Secre
tary, respectively, of the County Committee,
were assiduous and untiring in their lahors
for the success of our nominees. Both faithfully
discharged the duties asslgued them, and both
deserve the acknowledgment 6f loyal men— .
WILLIAM B. Rum, who, while District Atter
nay of the county of Philadelphia, authhrized
the arrest of the members of a Democratic chrb
because they claimed and exercised the freedom.
of speech, and who was the leader 'of the peace
Democracy in the late election in ill's State, - is
now violently denouncing : his political associ
ates, charging them with cowardice and double
dealing. Reed claims that certain oethe Demo
cratic leaders, while the platform of the party
indicated a policy looking to immediate peace,
actually deluded the war elementof the Keystone
State with the profession that 'their were in
favor of coercive measures to crush the. rebel
lion. On this account Mr. Reed now bitterlyl
denounces these leaders, and advocates the'
immediate re-organization of the Democratic
party on principles contemplating policy for
unconditional' peace. This policy Mr. Reed
expects to make effective in the campaign for
the Presidency in 1864; and by unconditiOnal
peace he undoubtedly means , the affording of
active measures to secure rebel success. We
are free to admit that Mr. Reed re, right in thus
attempting to re-organize .the broken and scat
tered factions of the dough firee Democracy. As
a party, the Democracy cannot secure an or•
ganization on any other . base. The war De
mocracy will novertubmit to the lead of such
a man as Bill Reed, while the peaceDemocrady
are tco mean and cowardly to be led hY,aey'
other than just such a white-faced hypocrite as
Reed. Hence, the unconditional peape organi
zation of the Democracy, mid& the lead of
Bill Reed, with the Tory Organ for its central
mouth piece, becomes a necessity before the
party can be utterly destroyed. •
FOE STATE Tn sesuratme.—The Pittsburg Daily
Commercial nominates Henry D. Moore•as a can
didate for State Treasurer,, , 'and urges that
his election would be hilted -with latisfaCtion•
by the people of the Commonwealth. It is a
fact that'there are few better men than Henry
D. Moore ha this State.of Pennsylvania. Com.:
petent, honest, faithful and, t.opular, we
garded every way fitted to take charge:
of a position which he has heretofore filled with!
credit to himself and profit to the Common
wealth.
GOOD AS GOLD. -Mr. Carswell, the Canadian
orator, who spoke in Cooper Institute, New
"York city, on the evening 'Of the 29th nit.,

now the Soldiers Would flays Voted.
As long as Pennsylvania turvivcs as a State,
to remember the glory- which her sons achieved
while conic sting for the stability of the Nation
al Government and the perpetuity of the Na
tional Union,-the will regret The course of her
Supreme Court, whtch disfranchised her sol
dier citliens. That decision was prompted by
the vilest partisan motives The Judges who
engaged in if hive since been rejected by a
vote of the peeple, one for re election to the
Judgeship ani the other for election to the
Chief Magistracy of the Commonwealth. That
rejection proves how deeply the people feel on
the subject of the disfranchisement of the
soldier, for in the late election that question
constituted one of - the main; if not the princi
pal, issue involved.
When our soldiers were absent in Mexico;
th'eY were allowed to vote, because. it was them,
supposed that the army was principally com
posed of Democrats, as the Mexican war was a
Democratic crusade for the' extension and in-
Crease of the power and interests of slavery.—
Bat in the warfor the Union, the influences ati
work are differeut. The very fact that the
slaveholders are engaged in a struggle to destitY
the Government, placcs the dough-face Democ
racy of the North fh a position different from
that-which they occupied in the Mexican wars•
And to show why these leaders demand the dis
franchisement of the soldiers engaged in fighting
this •war for the interests of this Government,
we submit a report of a vote taken in the 40th
Beg. P. V., as a test of the opinion and the
purposes of the' men:
CAMP OIT THE 46th RIO. PENNA. VOLS..,

Yesterday being the day for election in Penn
sylvania, we took- a lest vote in our regiment
which resulted as follows:

Three of the officers voting for Woodward
were from the Ist comp3ny. The other is not
known.
This evening, at dress parade, the news , was
announced of the election of Curtin and.BrOugh
as Governors. of Pennsylvania and Ohio, add
th&.dolonel addressed the regiment, congratak
lating them and country on the 'glorious
result. _ CONSCRIPT.
—The result, as - shown above, is the solution
of the secret of Democratic opposition to the
soldier's vote. It exhibits the intoleranCe of
the Democratic leaders iiits fairest aipect.—
Those leaders are in favor of the disfranchise
ment of all who differ with them in opinion.
Like the elaveholders, the Democratic lead?.rs
of the North are the enemies of free suffrage.
This is a his torical , fact i which the late election
again clearly established. ,
A Well Tiiiiecll:Rebuke.
Col. A. K. McClure, the editor in chief of the
Franklin Repository, administers the following
well timed rebuke to Tom Williams, of Alle
gheny county, member elect to the next Con
gress. Williams is a highly educated, Itasca
ble, and impracticable man of letters, who is
constantly engaged in some quixotic scheme to
destroy the practical good which other =en are
engaged in accomplishing. He took into his
head some years since to gobble up anddevon;
the Supreme Court, bat the hard sense and in
vulnerable integrity of that body did'not lay well
on Thomas'" stomach, and Thomas soon disi,ov
ered that the Court was indigestible. 'Of litte; he
-
pledged himself to "damn and eternally destroy
Andrew G. Curtin," and to accomplish that ob
ject Williams entered on a crusade of personal
abuse against Curtin, such as would disgrace the
vilest billingsgattever scraped from the purlieus
of degradation.ln-thts" , Williams so signally
failed, that the lifpoaitory deems the occasion
appropriate for a rebuke. Gov. Curtin received
more votes in Allegheny county than did.. Wil -
Rants, when-he was a candidate for Congress.
In that feat, Gov. Curtin has his vindication.
Here is what the Repiaitory says - on this, anhject:
Hon. Thomas Williams wrote a pamphlet of
an hundred pages or so to prove that. Judge
Woodward was a perjured scoundrel, and pro
oably half as rawly to. prove, that Gov. Curtin
was a thief and an imbecile. 'Both .were subse.i
quently nominated for Governor, and Williams,
like an ass between two bundles of hay, did't
know which way to nibble, and nobody seemed
to care on which side he should forage. Ati
Gov. Curtin ran more than double the majority . ,
a certain M. C. received ;in the Allegheny,
district about a year ago, We.suggest that
Thomas might come downa cat,or two ,in • his;
bill of indictment against Curtin, without
materially damaging his reputation for common s
sense. If the vote of Allegheny
,don'ts teach /
him a little wisdom, there is still some consol
ration in the reflection that the State contributed,
generously:towards the , decent support Of the)
insane in Western Pennsylvania. , I
THE Putman64464 which the brilliant
result of the lath of'O„ t lier ` li s yet presented, :
that we have Seen, is that of the glorification
of some of the Pittsburg newspapers over thei
triumphant re-election Thai
ntspalch is particularly jubilant. It sings a;
pealiff, and promises never again to indulge in;
the luxury of ordering the - flogging of Ameris
can -soldiers, while the Gaselatils;as calm ,art al
summer morn, eking out its dignity in 13011111
columns of editorial, and rejoicing in the fall'
newt of its .coldness ever whit it dOubtles4
claims as the exclusive resulkoflalicirs.,%in,

Both the diners and mea,harbored feelings
of hatred towards Holmes ever since the battle
