NA'fIONAL UNIO.MTICKET.
FOR PRESIDENT,
Albitahani Lincoln,
Or ILLINOIS.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT.
Andrew Johnson,
Latest from Hagerstown.
IN THE WooOs,
Two MILER NORTH OF H&GEBSTOWN
. July 8, 1864.
About one hundred and eighty picked guer
rillas from Imboden and Moseby's command,
under Maj. Davis, entered Hagerstown at 5
o'clock this A. M. They• are robbing the
stores, and have fired the engine house
Thurston's warehouse and a pile of about 200
tons of Government hay. They intend burn
ing Zeller & Co.'s warehouse] and threaten to
burn the town. The turn table of the rail
road is not yet disturbed.
The rebels are heavily laden with plunder
pilfered from men, women and children.—
They started a squad of about twenty out the
Greencastle road and fifty out the Leiters
burg pike, it is supposed to meet . any. force
which the flames of the burning town might
attract to its rescue.
.The rebel General Dreausland, with his bri
gade, was at William - sport this morning.—
Scouts from that direction report the indica
tions in his camp that he will leave there this
morning.
A high wind is blowing and the flames are
reported to me, by fugitives from Hagerstown,
to be rapidly spreading through other portions
of the.town.
I have no communication with M'Lean.—
[it is fair to suppose that M'Lean, with his
forces, has encountered the twenty guerrillas
sent out from Hagerstown towards Green
castle, as he must be somewhere on the road
between those two localities.—En. TEL.].
LATER
No communication has yet been had from
the force sent out by Gen. Couch, under com
raimd of Lieut. M'Lean, from Greencastle.
STILL LATER
At 11 o'clock, A. M., to-day, dense volumes
of smoke were observed to continue to rise
from Hagerstown. This act of incendiarism
is regarded as a base violation of all the rules
of war, as the people of Hagerstown yester
day paid $20,000 and contributed 1,600 out-
Ate, as a subsidy to relieve the town from pil
lage or destruction. •
The force sent out by Gen. Couch from
Greencastle under Lt. McLean, has been
heard from. He is in a position to,operate ef
fectually against the foraging squads of rebels
now plundering the vicinity of Hagerstown.
THE VERY LATEST FROM HA.GERS
TO
TOWN.
• IN TEE WOODS, 3 Mums FROM }LAGERS- !.
TOWN, July 8-12 M.
the latest information from Hagerstown is
to the effeot that the main body of the rebels
which entered that place this morning have
retired, it is supposed, south across the Pelo
tas°, leaving a few stragglers in the town.
A Tlinely and Sensible Order.
General Couch has just issued an order,
directing that neither horses or wagons
be permitted to pass east from the Cumber
land Valley, over the Susquehanna river. This
order is well-timed and sensible. The people
or the Cumberland Valley, or at least the
able-bodied men who, mounted on'horsee,
have been riding into Harrisburg within the
pist three days, should show a disposition to
curtain at home and arm for the protection of
their lives and property. If they did this,
there would be no trouble in raising troops
for their relief and defence. As it is, even
now hundreds and thousands of men are
°Tering their services to march into the
Cumberland Valley to meet the enemy. But
we-submit whether it is encouraging to such
as these, as they enter Harrisburg from all
parts of the • State, - tli"nteet swarms of able
men from:
and stalwart en the Cumberland Val
ley, shrinking, it were, to risk a•• peril in
the defence of their own homes.
—We heartily , commend the order , of Gen.
Goneh. It will have a tenderiCy . to 'Stay panic,
and assure the people of the neoessity of.or-
Midi:loer home protection. Let all, then,
who are at home in the Cumberland Valley,
prepare there to meet and net Ape from up
advanoing . enemy. And let all, too, who have
lied from the valley, at once :return to their
homes. .
„Get Your Substitintes.
There Is very. little doubt that we shall Hoc*
have.another zalt ironi the President for 'at
least - three hundred thousand men; whether
for one, two or three years,. we cannot say.
The 'quotas will be estimated by States; dis
tricts and wards as lieretiffore. Now, 'in
iew of the certainty of this dr4l,'We Would
suggOst to .those who have the means to spare,
to get a Substitute while they - may..ire had at
reasonable rates. They cant• be seemed note
at three to four hundred dollars each, while
subsequent to the draft they will range from
slight hundred to one thousand. In this man
ner. tholo):"'„WIto are wealthy can relieve those
ofleasStr-Mes,uti by filling up the quotas of
their respective wards. The system is already
behrwedgited in .New Yorkptand
belagiformed in which substitutes are being
106filWatig. placed u ,ti? service
EIRE
Form Home Guards.
We hopli Our citizens will at once go to
work and form Hoine Guards for the protec
tion of their families and property. Let every ..
man capable of bearhig arms enroll himself
under a suitable leader for the protection of
his homeand fireside. We have no time to
lose. The rebels hate returned to Hagers
town, and notwithstanding they had made a
solemn agreement not to disturb the property
if the required amount of money and outfits
were produced, they burnt a large portion of
the town. --
We have a large numher of strangers in the
city who have come here for protection. Let
them also be required to shoulder a musket—
and if this be done we shall be able to repel
any cavalry raid that mighf,be inadathis way.
We hope that a general meeting will be
called at the Court House and that uniform
measures be at once adopted for our protec
tion. Let every business man close his store
or shop at 5 or 6 o'clock and connect himself
and his employees with companies to defend
the city.
Some mode ought also be adopted, which
would prevent similar scenes as we have wit
nessed for the last two days in this city. It
seems that a large portion of the able-bodied
men residing in the Cumberland Valley, have
left their hoines and firesides; we have seen
more able-bodied men with wagons and horses,
than they numbered animals. This is a dis
grace to themselves and cruel treatment to
their families, who have been left to the ten
der mercies of a ruthless mob and guerrillas.
These men are now lounging on the street
corners, discussing the probabilities of the
rebels coming here, and finding fault with the
government in not protecting their homes
which they have disgracefully left. A man
that is not willing to protect himself is cer
tainly not entitled to the aid of his neighbors,
and we advise all such to go home without
delay and preserve their manhood.
Volunteer or Draft.
It is useless to disguise the fact, that the
Government must have troops to re-inforce
our armies in the field. The people must de
cide whether the troops are to be furnished by
volunteering or the draft. Heretofore, owing
to the defectsin the law on the subject, con
scription was rendered ineffectual for practi
cal purposes. The law, as it existed, afforded
the very easiest and sure means of avoiding
its own requirements; so that while the Gov
ernment was expending large sums of money
to secure soldiers, it required only the disburse
bursement of a comparatively small sum to
evade conscription. Every candid man saw
the folly of such proceedings. It was admit
ted on aH sides, that if the war was to be con
ducted successfully, these defects in the con
scription law must be amended. Hence, Con
gress, at its last session, passed a law suffi
ciently stringent for all practical purposes.
Under the provisions of this law, so far as the
Government is concerned, the citizen capable
of service in the field, is confronted with the
alternative either to enlist or be drafted. The
Government will no longer commute services
in the army for money. What it wants, What
it must have, are soldiers to fight its - battles.
If these fail •to volunteer, then the citizen
must submit to a draft. At this juncture in
tiddevelopments of the conflict there is but.
one alternative left the citizen, namely, to
go into the stibstitute market and finds man
not liable for draft, and still capable of service,
who will represent him in the army.
It is no pleasing task for the authorities to
enforce a draft. If the President could 'con
trol the busineis otrecruiting our armies, we
feel certain that he mould prefer, to fill up their
decimated ranks by volunteering. But if the
people neglect, from apathy or indifference, to
volunteer, and if the people intend that the
authority of this government must be main.
tained, then a draft becomes inevitable.
There is no possible chance of avoiding the
draft, unless the people volunteer, Perhaps
it would have been better had the law been so
framed as to compel ail to enter the arms',
when drafted, who were capable of service:
Indeed, we believe it will yet come to this.—
We incline to the notion that when the Euro
pean sympathizers with the slaveholdersure
convinced that they need men, they will begin
to furnish the rebel armies with these, as they
have already furnished them with all the rm.
cessary supplies to conduct their hellish work.
When' such a, dilemma occurs, then we will
need the services of all our fighting men.
But would it not be better to fight against
such'tin occurrence by speedily ending the war
in the complete triumph of our anus
negating the Tax Law.
• .
Two fanners in Eunterdon, New Jerse y,
undertook to resist the collection of the inter
nal revenue tax by refusing to pay"it. The
consequenee was they were indicted, plead
guilty, and each had to pay a fine of $5OO.
The amount of tax which they refused to pay
was one dollar. A man that undertakes to
resist the Federal laws, when properly exe
cuted, will always come out of the contest
second best. And yet , we need not be sur
prised to heSr of repeated instances of these
attempts to resist the law. Simply because
the - conductor of every copperhead news
paper in the country is now laboring to in
eitethe ignorant portion o.the community
to Oppose the legal authorities. Tndeed, the
copperhead leaders seem to have no purpose
in view now but to provoke a collision be
tween a portion of theniasses of the, loyal
States and the Government.
The Huntingdon emigres:tonal District.
The contest for the Union nomination for
Congress, in the - ./Inntin i gg(in Congressional

Trouble Among tbe Mormons--
- An Elder Expelled &c.
The Deseret Xews (organ of Brigham Young
at Great Salt, Lake City) has a long story
about the expulsion of 0 go T won elder from
the company of the "saints." The elder in
question is Walter M. Gibson, formerly knoWn
as Captain Gibson. It seems that he arrived
in Utah, on his way to the Malay Islands, in
the fall of 1859. He, was out of funds,' but
managed to secure them by lecturing' upon
"Oceardca." course of lime he sought
baptism, and was soon Elder Gibson. He
went down to the Pacific coiSt, lectured, at.
San Francisco, and was accused of being a
Mormon, bat denied it. Finally he. reached
the Sandwich Islaridß, and soon inade his
presence felt among the natives, and was
rapidly making a "good thing" out of them,
when a committee from Utah went ont 44 in
vestigate his acts. They found him, living-in
clover, possessing,aores+of hind by thousands,
his sheep by the Sarnefignres, and his horses
and cattle, geese and turkeys in droves. But,
more than all this. he dispenaed - MOribon
offices and titles.' He had ordained honts-ot
Kitnehareeha'd subjects as apostles, high
priests, "seventies, elders - and everything
else; and even the women received from his
hand the hisnors of priestesses and other ti-:
ties that his dinning suggeit to touch
their veneration; while be touched their pro
perty. Our Mormon delegation visited him
andiemonstrated with him;- but he couldn't
see it; and suggested tothem the propriety of
a speedy . departure, A/ few hints of Lynch
law by the newly converted natives accelerated
their departure„
