SOLDIERS' RIGHT TO VOTE.
HARRISBURG, PA
FRIDAY BUBB, ,TUNE ;, 1864,
Nineteenth Congivitional-Dietilet.
Hon. JloscplillendersonofJeffersoncounty,
and Willis z ut Bensen, Esq., of Erie city,, are
the delegates appointed to represent the Nine-.
teenth Cangressional District of Pennsyliania
in the Union Rational Converition with in
structions to.support the renomination of
Abraham Lincoln. The delegates are of the
most respectable men in the Commonwealth,
and will faithfully represent the wishim of their
constituents in the National Convention.
Nearer r
The nearer the Army of the . . Potomac ap
proaches; Richmond the more angry and re
sentful . hdeomethe coppeitheii4 - sympathiF.ers
with treason. The capture of Richmond will
be the conquest-of the-eitadel-of copperhead
ism. When th,e rd el Goverrunent is destroyed
the rule of modern Democracy will be at an
end. As soon al the political ileath'Of . Slavery; is
achieved, there will be no. more pretexbi af
forded the.leaders of the copperhead faction
in the North to encourage the conspiracies of
the miserable aristocracies in the South who
have been living on the breeding of negroes
for the slave pens. With the rebellion crushed
out; with the hallucination of Southern mill
tary superiority dispelled by the valor of the
North; with slavery shorn,of all its political
franchises; with the authority of the National
Government fully enforced in all the States,
the , Temoctitie" FLAY 'must cease to exiiit.
Hence, the rancor. and the resentment with
which the national authorities are assailed.
Just ahnut 'Ors time a 'c;riminal with a rope,
about his neck, could have no greater horror
of help, than a modern Democrat has for the
action of the soldiers in the field and the civil
authorities at home. , The nearer our soldiers
approach Itiehraond,"the sterner the authori
ties enforce the .laws.of the land, so in pro
portion 'dwindle all that pertains to the
present and' the future hopes of traitors.
These are aignifibant facts.' It , seems
to have been -'arranged by 'the sternest
rules of justiCa," that slavery, rebellion and
modern DSinoCracy should go down into the
rave together—should perish in the identical
last ditch." The fraud which animates one,
invigorates the other. The object which
induced the adherents of one to imbrue their
hands in the blood'Of their countrymen, im
pelled the-other to aid in the sanguinary work.
Nearer and nearer, theu , approaohes their com
mon demi. They have forfeited all claim's
pity byshaving disregarded all the princiPles
of justice. They have placed themselves
beyond the. pale of <mercy by "violating all
the attributes of charity. Invoking war as
the means of increasing and. justifying their
crimes, destiny and 'the God of war are r•tern
ly bringing both to an expiation in the worst
horrors'of the battlefield! Nearer and nearer
comes the end. As it approaches, • the rage of
the copperhead treason sympathizers illus
trates the dismay of hie armed allies. Let
ns all rejoice, then, while we despise And
utterly contemn this rage, that the end of re
bellion is hare,' and that, the rule of corrupt
Democray . abOut -to be ' broken with the
chains that haVe Ring enalaVed a whole nation!
Grant and victory are death:to copperhead
ism, slavery and rebellion!
TER Our-snks
.Pissuns at ths Cleveland
Convention vita made. up entirely of Copper
head Democrats, who gave ti) the spavined
old political hacks assembled as delegates all'
the encouragement they received while in con
clave. In Pennsylvania there IS not a con
sisientßepuld4n;or Union journal in exist
ence that will 'endorse the proceedings of the
Clevehtnd 'Convention or place its nominees at
the head of its columns. The "Copperhead
organs wilh.be compelled to blow hot and
cold—one day a warm blast for their own fa
vorite—the next.a cool , puff for the :Viols of
the Cleveland Convention: Here is ,work for

GRIM:ALL A. J. Hextmon gives a lamentable
account of the condition of things in Texas.
The removal of a large body of our troops at
this juncture will, it is feared, put the 13nidn
ists down there in a painful position. Ef43

pitiful beyond 'imagination. Whole families,'
