Monday Afternoon, August 18,1889.
UNION COUNTY CONVENTION.
The friends of the Administration and the op
ponents of the present unholy rebellion, are in
vited to assemble in County Convention for the
nomination of county officers, which will meet
in the Court House at Harrisburg, on Tuesday
the 19th day of August, 1862, at 14 o'clock
A. M.
Meetings for the election of delegates will be
held in the various townships of the county,
at the usual place of holding said elections, be
tween the hours of five and seven p. M., and
in the several wards and boroughs between the
hours of 7 and 9 P. M., on Saturday the 16th
inst. H. C. ALLERAIT,
Chairman Republican County Committee
RECRUITS .FOR THE-OLD REGIMENTS.
Since the county,has paid the`sso bounty to the
nine months volunteers, we hope that the
committee will at once resolve to pay all those
who enlist for the old regiments a bounty of $5O
from the money so liberally contributed by the
citizens of Harrisburg. Some sixteen thousand
dollars have been contributed in that way, which
ought to be used for this purpose and the relief
of the families left by those who have volun
teered.
WIIAT ARE, WE DOINGI
Since the orders of the War Department, one
summoning three hundred thousand men to the
field, and another directing a draft of a like
number of men to be made, the several states
of the Union which cleave to the government
have been actively employed in responding.—
While we are interested in the success of our
sister commonwealths, and view with favor and
solicitude every effort which each state is mak-'
ing to contribute its quota of men, we are of
7 .etr concerned in the position of the
people of Pennsylvania, and regard their mut
tary operations as most directly affecting the
honor and glory of the Union. Since the last
call for three hundred thousand men, and up
to this time, Pennsylvania has marched into
camps of instruction ten regiments. From
this time forward arrangements have been
made to contribute two regiments per day—and
before the expiration of the present week, we
expect to have contributed:no lees than twenty
two regiments, fully armed and equipped, and
capable of being disciplined for active service
in an incredible short space of time. Of these
twenty-two regiments, five are for the term of
three years, and outside of these enlistmente,hun
dreds of recruits have been sent forward to the
old regiments, while the Bucktail Brigade is re
ceiving acquisitions of men every day, of which
our state military records contain no account.
At the same time, also, many of the counties of
the state have now enrolled a sufficient number
of men to meet the quota which will be demand
ed of them by the draft, so that the delay which
must have otherwise attended the assessment
of men for drafting purposes, will be entirely
avoided, and when the time arrives fixed for this
draft, the number of men themselves required,
will be organized and ready• for marching
orders. Of course it will become necessary
to order this draft in localities, but in a very
large majority of districts, It will not follow,
as the men are ready, nay clamoring for
places in the ranks where they can distinguish
themselves best by performing the most active
service for their country.
BY FRIDAY OR S&TCOLDA.Y NEXT, PENNSTLYAJI/A
WILL HAVE MORE MEN : IN THE FIELD, AB IiBE.
QUOTA OE THE LAST CALL OF THREE HUNDRED
THOUSAND, THAN NEW Yoas. AND ALL THE EASTERN
STATEN COMBINED
This is what Pennsylvania is doing. These are
only the operations which appear before the
world, while the other silent influences, such
as the contribution of money, the surrender
ing of positions of emolument and the entire
abandonment of prosperous pursuits, will nev-
Er be properly valued or appreciated. We
have placed our all on the scales with the
government. Life, honor and fortune are in
vested in the cause. Numbers and energy are
both aroused for its defence. Nothing that is sa
cred, holy or valuable, will be reserved, fox in
the event of the breaking up of this govern
ment, sacredness and holiness, with the valua
tion of every right and material interest,
would soon become the prey of evil passions
and the sport of those who aspire to rule or
ruin the Republic.
Tin Camoo Poin, says the Catholic clergy
in that city have entered the field for enlist-
ments under the lead of Rev. D. Dunne, and
that a regiment of Irishmen under their
ausploes will be the result.
HAIR. Dig, in the opinion of an exchange,
since the orders fur a draft, has declined in
price, and is almost entirely without demand.
Our cotempor,ry is insinuating.
BjAVR COUNTY has offered a bounty of sev
enty-five dollani to all its citizens who enlist in
the old regiments.
POLITICS AND TEE WAR.
A large class of men, honestly solicitous for
the success of our army and the restoration of
peace, regard any thing like the introduction
of politics into the present contest as calculated
to be dangerous to the cause of the govern
ment. In one respect we agree with these
men. Politics, though the origin and the food
of the rebellion, have nothing to do with its
overthrow and the punishment of its instigators.
Politics have nothing to do with the adminis
tration of the law and the vindication of jus
tice. But politics must be met by something
like an organization on the part of th 3 people—
something like an understanding that is the
struggle to aid the civil authority in all its oo
ordinate branches, none but loyal men, men
unquestionably attached to the government,
be placed in position to frame its laws and in
vested witli authority to wield their power.
In this way only politics may, with discretion
and with great service, be introduced, not in
the conflicts of this war, but in those other con
tests which are to give force and success to the
struggle of the war. It is the politics which
make an issue with those who have really
made party prejudices and organization the
impediments of the war, which must not be
lost night of, or all our efforts to sustain the
government, and all our contributions to sup
port the war, will become useless and fruitless.
The political aspect of Pennsylvania has now
become such, that all true and loyal men are
either forced to make an issue with the leaders
of some of our most corrupt factions, or the
state will be placed in a position where its in
fluences can be used with as great effect against
as'they are now wielded for the government.
The game is being played- with great despers
tion and also great skill. The object is to get
a vote against both the state and national ad
ministrations—to place the legislative power of
the state and nation in the hands of men who
are notoriously the opponents of the Executive
branches representing both. Suppose, for in
stance, that the Congressional and the Legisla
tive Houses were composed of such men as Gen
erals Miller and Boumfort. Would President
Lincoln and Governor Curtin receive the sup
' port essential to the success of the vigorous pol
icies adopted for the suppression of the rebel
lion ? We answer, emphatically, in the negative.
These men, imbued with a partizan spirit which
recognizes no :compromise except that which
promises the realization of their own Raperstions, would make politics the means of crush
ing both, and in the end, the nation would
again find itself in the power of the very men
who are now battling for its destruCtion. With
such menus these, and with the party they
represent, we must of course make an issue.
If that issue &mends into politics, they are to
blame, because they have petshtently refused
to give up their partizan identification. We
are bound to oppose such as these, because the
highest interests of the state and nation are at
stake; and if such men are to be invested with
power, those interests will of course be placed
in jeopardy, If not entirely destroyed. It le not
only In our own Congressional and. Legislative
dbstriots, that we are called on to oppose these
men, but their associates and those with whom
cliFiirthil - c - ommonweaitn,
must also.be opposed. We must meet them on
the political grounds which they, have'staked
out. We must meet them on the issue which
they have proposed; an issue as to whether
this war can be vigorously prosecuted to a suc
ceesful termination, or whether by the influ
ence of the politics which they represent, it
shall be compromised in a manner to insure the
escape of traitors.
ATTACK ON THE LOYAL PREACHERS OF
HARRISBURG.
Not satisfied with having traduced the cause
of the Union, and glorying in their infidelity
and spiritualism, the writers for the tory-secesh
organ, this morning, indulge in a most brutal
and unprovoked attack on the loyal preachers
of Harrisburg. We take it that this assault is
directed against such patriots as Rev. Cattell,
Rev. Moore, Rev. Robinson, Rev. Colder, and
others whose names we cannot now recollect,
because these gentlemen hare blended patriot
ism with their religion, and identified the cause
of the Union with that of the high cause of
which they are teachers. This feature of trea
son is in keeping With. its - tendencies. Those
who strike down the attributes of freedom and
conspire for the overthrow of a free government,
must not be expected to pause iir'Ailydevell#
work which will,. bring the holy calling of reli
gion into disgrace. On this acconnt, theyasEiall
the loyal preachers of Harrisburg. Unable to
approach them with argument,and too coward
ly to avow -their real feelings of infidelity,
they seek to malign our ministers of the gospel
because of their patriotism;-their loyalty, and
their pure Christianity. -
The promulgation ADt _treason was bad enough
in all conscience—but since the traitorous or
gan has fallen into the hands of reputed io - fidels
and spiritualists, it seems that we are to be
treated with attacks, not alone on the govern
,
ment, but on the Christian loyalty of our purest
and most . -patriotic preachers. Truly, treason
is assuming its worst shape, when its organs
thus indulge in the aspersion of the representa
tions of religion; because they are loyal.
TRISTLIIEN, READ THIS.
An officer of the Signal Corps, recently re
leased from Richmond, had an interview with
Col. Corcoran before he left the rebel capital.
The Colonel told him that the rebels refused to
exchange him because they feared that, if he
was released, the story he could tell of the
outrages inflicted upon him, and the sufferings he
had endured in consequence of his loyalty; would
bring may Milkman in the loyal states down to Rich
mond to avenge the barbarous treatment he had re
ceived for so long a time, and is still mitering.
The rebels have taken particular delight in
'persecuting the gallant Corcoran. Oar gov
ernment has made every attempt to procure
his release. Contrary to the protestations of
Kentupkians, they recently sent Buckner dud
two other Generals to Rkhmond, with the ex
pectation that Corcoran would be released.
The reirle, with boa treachery, however,
after receiving th, it officers, reused to release
ours. Cordoran was ' outiry and
to hie _ release, but they 'persist in keeping him
in a loathsome prison.

The Irishmen of the eastern states are de

Irishmen of Pennsylvania join in this deter

become a part of man's business. However
generously the Irishmen of Pennsylvania have
rallied to the standard of the state and the
cause of the Union, the motive of doing so for
the purpose of contributing to the release of
the gallant Corcoran, presses home on them
with doable force. He is the object of rebel
hatred and persecution. He should, therefore,

This is the heading of a leader in the " tory
secesh organ" of this morning. It starts cut
with this modest declaration : " The great
Democratic party embodies the essential ele
ments and genius of a republican form of gov
ernment, and is, therefore, the only party that
can successfully rule the country. Tort wax TICE
GOVERNIISI POWERS !"
This is modest, truly. This Is claimed for a
party that has ruled the country for at least
two-thirds of the period of its existence, and
has brought it to the very verge of ruin, and
would destroy it effectually had not the people
rsien in their might, as they,have done, and hurl
ed it from the power it has abused. In the lan
guage of a truthful and eminent cotemporary, It
is the party pandering to every vice, exciting
every bad passion, inflaming,every senseless and
mischievous prejlidice, the oracle of every haunt
of infamy, the champion of every gainful wrong,
the varnisher of every prosperous vilalny, the
libeler of every philanthropist, the scoffer at
every holy emotion, the defamer of every gen
erous enterprise, the terror of the good and the
mercenary tool of the devilish.'
This
This is a true portraiture of this, political or-,
ganization, as a party. Thank God, that thoa
sande of horreat, but heretofore misguided men
who have been swayed by this iniquitous power,:
are opening their eyes, and like true patriots,
as they are, are deserting 'the sinking ship.—
The country will be saved, but not under the
rule of the corrupt organization 'yclept

Maj. Fifield, the officer having charge of rail
way affairs at this post, yesterday went with a
construction train as far as the Rapidan station,
but it being announced to him that a consider
able force of the enemy were within gunshot
of the river, on the other side, it was deemed
Injudicious to commence
.orations, upon the
bridge until our forces under Gen. Pope. who
were then on their march, would reach the
river, to cover our workmen.
Major Fifield was notified that a short dis
tance from As. road, was stored a considerable
quantity of flour. He, with a sufficient force
proceeded thither, and secured over one hun
dred bags of flour, marked "Confederate
States," probably amounting to twelve thou
sand pounds.
Contrabands from Gordonsville report the
continuous arrival- of troop trains there from
Richmond. Heavy bodies have been sent out
on the right and left of our centre,' to protect
it against any flank movement by the enemy.
We now occupy the line of the Rapidan, from
Raccoon ford on the east to Cave's ford on the
left, with pickets and scouting parties beyond
these points.
Culpepper is now comparatively relieved from
the wounded, excepting such cases where death
would ensue from immediate removal.
Several amputations were performed yester
day upon the rebel wounded, who were found
and coil' aced this side of the Rapidan.
General Banks is fast recovering from his In
juries. Yesterday was able to walk about
with the aid of a cane.
. Gen. Sigel, who occupies the advance near
Rapidan river, reports that the rebels made, yes
terday morning, an attempt or feint to cross the

and poured such a destructive fire on the enemy
that they retired in disorder. Several of them
were taken prisoners.
Jeff Thompson sent a flag of truce to General
