TEE PEOPLE'S CRDICIE FOR PRESIDENT,
A.BRAHAM LINCOLN.
EARRISBI:IRG, PA
THURSDAY ETEMIG, MARCH 24, 1864,
THE COETEVATTVE PATO USE TEE RAD
ICAL GEBBLLITS. ---- it is a : bmewhat significant
fact, that, while the radical Germans of st.
Louis and elsewhere, have been the objects of
the most malignant assaults on th 6 part of
the "Conservative" press, their late maligners,
availing themselves of the position of certain
German newspapers upon the question of the
Presidency, are seeking to turn that position
to Copperhead account. A correspondent of
the St. Louis Republican betrays their design
in a communication which doses with the fol
lowing significant language: ._
, -
There is, however, yet time and means to
bring the mass of our German fellow-citizens
to see through the fog of Radicalism, and
when the decisive hour comes, we may yet
find them on the right side—as ready to help
us save the country from Radicalism and ruin,
as they have been ready to hilp us to fight the
rebels and restore the Union.
We suspect that intelligent Germans will
hardly willingly become instruments in the
hands of their enemieslor the defeat of the
very measures for which they have so long
been battling.
Ms fact that only eighteen members .of the
House of Representatives supported the pro
position of Kr. Harding, of Ky., forbidding the
use of any part of the army appropriation to
pay negro troops, at once indicates to what
point popular opinion has advanced and that
no cause is too bad that it will not have sup
porters. One year ago, it would not have been
strange had this proposition received a re
spectable vote, for the public mind was butbe
ginning to comprehwid thesubject and recog
nize the wisdom of employing negro troops.
We are not certain that we would have had the
vote for the proposition ,less. It shows the
present actual strength of the Copperheads in
the House, and indicates as well as anything
else can the probable strength of that party in
the country. This is the way we find out how
fast the world moves.
TuncipPPERHEAD Cormewrzori which meets
in Philadelphia to-day, will, of course, emulate
the example of similer bodies all over the
country, by denouncing the war to crush
rebellion, ridiculing the efforts to conquer
treason, assailing the motives of those in au
thority, and then nominating George B. 11'..
Mellen for the Presidency. In one sense, it
matters little what these desperate tricksters
do or say, as they can influence only a few of
the more ignorant' and prejudiced in each
community; when in another view it is de
plorable and humiliating that the games of
such man are allowed to go on against the
Government, while others are sacrificing for
tune and periling life in its defente.
Ti* An VOTE. —lt being authoritatively
settled that soldiers shall vote, the New York
Hews calls on the army to nominate a peace
man for President (± ) and expresses confidence
that such a candidate would command a ma
jority of the army vote, were this not ham
pered and controlled by military restraint.
The late Missouri election very emphatically
repels this caluninyagabast the ,soldiers. Her
troops voted almost en masse fora the radical
war ticket, although their officers frequently
sought to hamper and restrain them in the
interest of the conservative ormilk and, water
war.party.
Trot LIESIWIS OF UTE COPPERHEADS were
recently unfolded at a "big meeting" recently
held in New York city, to nominate George
B.
,11'Clellan for the Presidency. The plat
form resolutions adopted, denounce the war
ast "fratricidal" and all that, and want the
"Young Napoleon" elected, riot to carry on
the war, mind you, but to bring about its
"termination"--for not one word is said about
proseenting the war. It -is a little funny that
"the greatest general of the age" should find
his worshipptrs in the "peace party;" and be
run fos the Presidency on the "no-fighting"
platform,
A •roux named Daniel Maloney was recently
sent to jail at Norfolk, for assault and battery,
but applied for a new trial. Soon after, a
brother of the prisoner Naced a letter in the
hands of Major Haggerty, the Provost Judge,
which was found to contain , a $5O greenback,
and expressing , the.writer's illAnlrlit for his, in-
tention to give a new trial. The letter and
contents were promptly returned, and on the
motion for a new trial coming up, the prisoner
acknowledged that he sent the letter and en
closure, whereupon he was sentenced to be
imprisoned one year, and fined $6OO for offer
ing a bribe.
THE TOTAL iLSGEWTS of Sanitary Fairs, held
since November last, commencing with the
pioneer fair at Chicago, is estimated at over
one million of dollars. The great fair, to be
held in the city of Philadelphia in a few
months, can be made to increase the sum at
least half a million more, if the proper efforts
are made by the people throughout the Com
monwealth.
PRICE OF WOOD AT EICENOND.—One of our
cotemporaries recently said in speaking of the
'proposition sometimes indulged by the Peace
Democrats;- of tendering the olive-branch to
the rebels, if we were to send them cords of
olive instead of branches, it would not pay for
the cutting and hauling. Is that not strange
when oak-wood retails at Richmond at $44
per cord, and pine at $35? Perhaps Fernando
might bring a little:lower.

Lieut. Col. J. P. Sanderson
We have noticed for several days a report,
going the rounds of the western and northern
press, highly injurious to Lieut. Col. J. P.
Banderson,of the 12th Regulars. The report
was in effect that the Mihaly Committee of
the United States senate had refused to
,re
commend Col. S. for promotion, on account
of alleged cowardice at Chickamauga. So fax
as our faith in the man was concerned, we felt
certain that the report was without founda
tion in truth; but in order to give weight to its
contradiction, we delayed any reference to it,
until we could furnish the reader with indu
bitableexidenceof the „injury which was de
signed to be inflicted upon a gallant soldier by
some of his unknown political enemies. The
proof is now before us in the shape of a card
from the headquarters of the Army of the
Missouri, printed in the St. Louis Republican,
March 19, which we submit in full as fol
lows:
HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE
MISSOURI, St. Lords, Mo., March 18.
Special to the New York cairarier cial.
Wise:minus, March 17. —The Military Com:
mittee of the Senate have refused to recom
mend. for . promotion Lieut. Col. Sanderson,
of the 12th Regulars, because of proof.of his
cowardice at Chickamauga.
Mr. EDITOR: The above communication,
published in the morning papers, is calculated
to do great injustice to a deserving officer now
on duty in this department The General
commanding .the department, as an act of
justice to Colonel Sanderson, directs me to
state that he his no knowledge that such
charge has ever been made against' Colonel
Sanderson, and that he is persuaded if it has
been made, that it is unfounded in truth. That
so far as his peritonea observations went,
• Colonel . Sanderson' conducted himself in such
a manner as to entitle him to special mention
in his official report of the battle of Micke
-1 mange.
I have the honor to be, sir,. your obedient
servant,
FRANK S. BOND, Major and A. V. C
FROM OEM. AOSECTRANS' REPORT..
"I must not omit Colonel J. P. Sanderson,
of the Regular infantry, who having lately
joined us, on those two days of battle acted as
aid-de-camp, and carried orders to the hottest
portions of the field.
IV. S. ROSECRANS Major General.
—We are exceedinglyxd glad that Colonel.
Underson has been thus fully vindicated by
his superior in command; and we _know that
the 'vindication will be hailed with satisfaction
by his numerous friends in Pennsylvania, who
have always'known him as a faithful, - upright,
brave and sincere men.

WASECNOTON, March 24.
Lieut. Gen. Grant and staff went to the
Army of the Potomac.
A letter from the Army "of the Petomae says
that a lieutenant and seven privates of a
Louisiana regiment came into our lines yes
terday and made the usual statement of de
moralization in the rebel ranks. ,
It having been reported that the Govern
ment was being defrauded in the article of
coffee, and that ground glass was found in the
bottom of barrels, a commission was appoint
ed to examine into the subjeCt. The result is
that some coffee had been emptied into a bar
rel, which previously contained fragments of
a bottle. This is the origin of the charge of
fraud.
The Star has the following: The steamer Bal
timore, acting master Mitchell, whigh left here
on Monday morning with Admiral.Dahlgren,
who went down.to Fortress Monroe expecting
to receive the body of his. , son,.arrived up this
morning with the Admiral on board, be hav
ing been again unsuccessful in his mission. ,
The flag-of-truce boat, which was due at Old . 1 ,
Point on Tuesday afternoon, did not arrive
until yesterday, r. ist.„ on account of the
storm, which obliged her to lay, to off old
Jamestown Island during Tuesday night. The,
boat brought .down .a, nutaberi .of wounded
soldiers, but did mot bring-down the remains
of Colonel Dahlgren, as expected.
Col. Ocild, the Confederate agent fOr ex
change of prisoners, sent a r.ebel. message,
stating that the men who had buried the
body - ocruld.not be found in time to gut it
ready for transportation, but it would be sent
down as BOOT), as possible:.
This promise gives the otlicers Old Point
- and the numerous relatives and friends of
the deceased hopes that the remains will
shortly. be delivered to the afflicted father and
his family.
Cap}. Mitchell describes . the late storm as
one of the most terrific that has ever occurred.
It blew and stormed with tremendous fury.
A. number of vessels in the Roads were dashed
about .by.thc storm, and some driven ashore
and damaged. Three .schooners wore totally
wrecked, and four lives were lost.
