HARRISBURG, PA.
Friday Evening, October 80, 1863.
West VirglLuta.
Sufficient returns have been received from
West 'Virginia to show that the Union men
have carried all before them, electing their
Congressmen and other candidates by over
whelming majorities. .These Union men In
West Virginia, says the North American, do not
occupy the same position as those elected in
Ilentutiky. The latter profess - about the siutie"
sort of Unionism generally as` the ttillowers of
Seymour of New York and Woodward of Penn
sylvania. Those of West Virginia,on the other
hand, are decided, unotuslified, unconditional
Union men, who support the Administration in
all its war measures/and have no trouble over
the slavery questio'n.
This Is the resnit of the emancipation policy
adopted by the people of the new State, which
has separated them from the interests of slavery
and identified them with the progress of free
dom. They deem the value of the republic so
far superior to that of slavery, that they cannot
stop to stipulate foe.the salvation of the latter
in preference to the former, or as a condition
thereof. They are patriots beyond and above
the level of the copperhead Congressmen elected
from Pennsylvania and New York, and will
rote in the interest of libertY, while the latter
sling to Judge Woodward's " incalculable bless
ing.'
The West Virginia Union men have had a
severe lesson in Mr. Carlile's apostacy, and
will not be likely to repeat.the error they colli
mated in trusting him. He has been of ser
vice to us in warning the unconditional Union
men of the new Stale against being'misled into
the. slough into which the people of Kentucky
have blundered. Deserted by the Unionists of
Maryland, Delaware, West Virginia, Tennes
see and Missouri, these Kentuckians stand
alone, and are likely to do so, unless they
change their ground, as we trust they will.
Since the untoward elections of last fall we
have cars led Maine, New Hampshire, Val:croak
Connecticut, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania,
Delaware, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, lowa,
Missouri, California, Nebraska, Nevada and
Colorado. To this array we hope soon to add
Maryland, New York and all the rent of the
loyal States. Outside of the copperhead me
tropolis, Gotham, there is not a more loyal
State in the Union than New York. Some
copperhead organ in Gotham says that Gov.
Seymour will not allow New York to be car
ried by the samo means that trieraphed . in
Pennsylvania. Now, although Seymour is
Governor of New York, he does not carry the
State in his breeches pocket, as the ensuing
election will show. The prthple of the, State
will not ask to be allowed to vote as they
please, and any effort of his to tamper with
the right of the soldiers to vote will be fatile.
The Union men control four-tifths of the:elec
tion districts, and will act for themselvt a.. .
The terms of peace which the Richmond 251-
.
quirer proposes to the "Yankees"- -should open
the eyes of the peace men of the North,. 'par
ticularly those who voted for Woodinniatithe
last election, with the hope that .his success
would bring peace. Among the -other mild
measures proposed and demanded;
"The pretension of that country to prevent
by force the separation of the States stun 'as
ABANDONED, which is equivalent to an.avowal
that our enemies WERE WRONG FILM TR NIERR ;
and, of course, as they waged a causeless ind!
wicked war upon us, they ought in mon nis
TIOR to be required, according to usage in such
cape, to REREBUREE TO VS TOE WHOLE OF OUR
EXPENSES AND LOSSES IN THE COURSE
OF THE WAR."
To do all this would tax every man 1n the
North ONI6- HALE oasts wsearn. This is the .
character of the traitors down 'South. They,
would first pillage and plunder the North; and'
then tax us half our means to pay their'debts.
To this would the copperhead leaders have led
us in the election of Woodward and their peens'
dootrines. But, thanks to the loyal and - pritil- . .
otic, Gov. Curtin is re-elected, and his peace , is
rebel submission and no paying of any debts'
but our own_ -
The Feeling in the Army.
Gen. Steadman recently made a speeoh. in'
Toledo, in which he said that when the Army .
of the Cumberland heard that Ohio had Alvan
John Brough 60,000 majority, a shout of jop•
went up which made the hills ring. Had" Val
landighain been elected, there wouldhaie 4e9ti ,
no heart to -fight longer-La few regiments_
could have whipped them and sent them home
with reversed arms ; but as it - was new seat
seemed to pose,ess the army, 'and. theY Were
ready for the foe in front. - ,
This is natural, and was doubtless; a true pic
ture. What would have been the feelings of
the army, had it bten deserted:by these it was
defending ?
Tat returns are now in from three fourtius of
the counties of lowa, polling at least five, sixths
of the voters. The mejority of Col. Stem

increase to 15,000. This is=independent• of the
soldiers' vote, which is about seven-eights for
Stone, and_is expected to increase his majority .
to 25,000. There was never before such a ma
jority in lowa for any party:
&swear, the New York represent prince,-

alone were $700,000; and for the last year , in
that department alone will be from six to seven:

The Armstrong histribt,
The Pittsburg Azimut, whose editor is a seem
her of the nest Legislature, says by the Appor
tionment bill of 1857 the counties of Armstrong
and Westmoreland were united to form a joint
legislative district, and elicited three members
in the House. This union was avowedly for
political reasons, because Aiiistrong had an
excess 6f taxables toentitle her to one member,
and so, too, had estmoreland for two mem
bers. In the e bill Bedford and Somerset
were united , thd each allowed one member; so,
too, were Cumberland and Perry, and each al
lowed one member. In October,' 1861, Bedford
county gave a majority for John Cessna, theigh
the joint district elected two Briton members.
Mr. Cessna contested the seat of George M.
Householder, elected by the vote of Somerset,
and succeeded,not only in ousting Householder,
but ales passed a bill repealing the joint die
tricte of Bedford and Somerset, and Cuinbetland
and Perry. Hence each of these counties have
since elected eaeh He own member.
In Armstrong county, at thelate election, J.
W.lWKee, the Union candidate; asked and has
obtained a certificate that he had a majority
ovs.JOhn R Chambers of - 103 votes in Arm
strong county, to wit :
J. W. M'Kee...
J. B. Chambers
Thus irmed, Mr. M'Kee intends to contest
the seat to which the Return Judges, by the
preponderating vote of Westmoreland, have
granted a certificate to Mr. Chambers. We
have befote us the report of the committee (by
the way a very fall and able report) in the
Cessna case. This report, to the fullest extent,
sustains the claims of Mr. M'llee in this case.
Even on one Point—where the facts vary—this
report puts it on the broad ground that exactly
covers the Armstrong county case.
In another case from Franklin county, the
same principle would eh at the Union member
from that county, defeated by the vote of
-Fulton county. This case is not so strong,
because Franklin had a large excess over one
member, and Fulton had a deficiency- of taxa
bles.
Bat the Cessna Committee, in their report,
place it on unconstitutional grounds, and
maintain that the union of these two counties
Was unconstitutional. If that be true, then.
Nill, elected by the vote of Franklin, is
also clearly entitled to his seat. This would
add two Union.votes in the House, and leave
fifty-four Bepublicsuis to forty-six Democrats.
War in India
tngland is again threatened with war in .
India. The PunJaub, or north-western portion
of *British India, has bum invaded by 7,000
men, headed by the eons of Mast -Mohammed,
One of the most renowned chieftains of 'Central
Asia, who died at the beginning of the , present
year. It was feared that this force was only
the vanguard of a larger army; and; -comae
,

for it is well and generally known by the En
glish people that among all the foreign depen
denotes of England there is none whose loy
alty can be less:depended upon than India.
There are now living in India, under British
rale, nearly 180,000,000 of people, governed
and kept in die& by a small body of European
troops and officers.
Outside of the native Europeans, there 'are
only small portions of the native population
psi whose loyalty England can depend; these
are the native Christians, the Parsees, the East
Indians, or descendants of Europeans and na
tives; but together they number not more than
four or five millions of inhabitants. The re-
Mainder are all doubtful. Large portions of
the native - population, especially among the
blohamMOliuks,,are fanatically opposed to the
continuance of British rule, and only waiting

rebellion id still fresh in the minds of every

While he felt flattered by it, he could not forget
that the heart of the people did not go out to
individuals alone. It is the principle for which
we are contending—the struggle for National

the people not to forget their duty to the Gov
ernment, whatever might occur to individuals.
The question ari to how he had been used he
desired to leave for time to answer.
"Some friends of mine," he said,_"in New
York are very solicitous about my health.
The Army of the Cumberland thinks I am well
enough, and so do I. As to the quantity of
opium I have token they will have to consult
my druggist. The. New York and Washingtan
papers have said that Gene. Crittenden and
M'Cook intended to make charges against me.
They assure me that they regret exceedingly
that such false reports should be started."
Gen. Roseanne also remarked, that since the
battle of Chickamauga he had received a letter
of approval - from the - President for his action in
that affair. He was satisfied that whatever
charges appeared in the Eastern papers against
him, the Govennent, was in no way responsi
