Dont Fdingit to be Assessed.
Friday nett, July /2rl; will be last day for
assessment to entitle a citizen to vote at the
ensuing election on the 2nd day of August.
It is important that every vote be polled for
the three amendments to be endorsed at that
election, and we therefore earnestly hope that
our friends will see that no ballot is lost by
the neglect of the voters to be assessed
Pennsylvania Agents for Recruiting In
Revolted States.
In conformity with the third section of the
act of Congress, of July 4th, and General Or
ders of the War Department, No. 27, Gover
nor Curtin is now prepared to appoint agents
to recruit for Pennsylvania, regiments in re
volted States. The duties of these agents
will be of the most important character, and
hence it is the earnest desire of His Excel
lency to eonsult the wishes of the people in
the different districts, so as to secure the ser
vices of competent and reliable officers, who
will faithfully discharge the great work to
which they may be assigned. In thus offer
ing freely to consult the wishes of the people
on this subject, Gov. Curtin shows a liberal
determination to be controlled only by a wise
policy for the public good.
The Call for 'Additional Troops.
It was not expected that the call for addi
tional troops would give satisfaction to cop
herhead or :ens and orators. It might as Well
have b •en anticipated that such a show of
vigor and determination would elicit the com
mendation of the rebels. But one thing is
certain, namely, the call for these additional
forces proves to the world that the represent
atives of a free government are resolved to
hazard all in the effort to rescue the land from
rebellion; and the very necessity which has
forced this call on the Administration, demon
strates the magnitude of the labor which is to
be accomplished; and that when we have
conquered rebellion, we will not merely have
brought back to allegiance the people of a fe
turbulent States of the American 'finial, bur
we will have defeated the efforts of the tyrants
of the world to destroy a free Government,
and disappointed the objects of the dema
gogues in our midst, who hoped to achieve the
vindication of their partizan notions by the
humiliation and disgrace of the Government.
It must ever be borne in mind that one half
of the troops called into the service, would
have been sufficient to conquer rebellion, had
there been unanimity and concord in the loyal
States and anything like fair neutrality
among the nations of the world. The loyal
men of the land are not merely contending
with the slaveholding conspirators and their
minions of the South.. We are fighting the
rebels while we are compelled to combat the
sympathizers in the North and the aristocra
cies of the world, all plotting for the over
throw and destruction of the American form
and system of government. Hence, we as
sert we need still further larger forces. Re
lieve the Government of these outside ene
mies, and open inside rebels can be conquered
if not exterminated in a very few battles. But
as long as we have the world to contend with,
we must rely alone on stupendous forces for
success.
Paying Bounties to Hundred Days , Men.
—Who are and Who are not the Friends
or the Soldier.
There is one fact connected with the re
cruiting of troops for the hundred days' ser-
Tide, which should not be allowed to ,go un
mentioned. The Democratic counties of York
and Cumberland, both bordering on Mary . -
land and both constantly open to the incur
sions of the rebels, refuse peremptorily to pay
a bounty to the hundred days' men. While
the copperhead commissioners of these coun
ties refuse thus to contribute to their own de
fence, the commissioners of the "abolition"
counties of Dauphin, Lebanon, Lancaster and
Chester are offering bounties of from fifty to
a hundred dollars, as an inducement to their
fellow citizens to march to the defence of the
farmers of the Cumberland Valley. While
such are the facts of the ease, the copperhead
leaders in the Cumberland Valley are laboring
to create the impression. that the fault of the
raids into that region lies at the door of the
Government, when in reality the blame be
longs to those who refuse to make a stand for
their own defence, or encourage others by a
just remuneration to afford them the neces
sary protection.

-DomeSilo Traitors.
We have frequently called attention to the
fact that there are organized gangs of traitors
in this and other northern oities, who are as
persistent in their hatred of the Government
and as. =dolls in their efforts for its over
throw as the armed traitors of the South.. A
writer in the Reading Journal uses language,
while referring to this subject, which is ap
plicable to the condition of affairs in Harris
burg. Like the writer in question, while we
do not believe and do not assert that any con
siderable portion of the Democratic party are
traitors to their country, yet we do assert upon
daily evidence, that there are, in this city, a
very large share of as scoundrelly traitors at
heart as ever had treason cut short by a rope.
These creatures are among those who com
plain of the tyranny of Lincoln's Adminis
tration, and prate about the Constitution and
the dangers to which oar liberties are ex
posed; while they ought to daily thank God
for the lenity of a Government and the for
bearance of a people which permits them to
talk treason openly and glory over the mis
fortunes of the country. If they had their
deserts they would be served as Union men
are at the South, and the time may 'yet come
when they will receive them.
Let no one deny that we have such among
us. They are well known, and the Union
men have spotted them. They need not be
afraid of being forgotten when the day of
reckoning comes. These are the men who
stimulate the commission ofmurder, andjusti
fy it when committed. They never believe
in a victory of the Union army, but receive
news of defeats with a ready belief.—
Successes of our army makes them sulky,
but with what ill-concealed delight they
chuckle over a rebel victory. How elo
quent they grow upon what they allege to be
Grant's want of success. How accurate they
aro as to the number of men he has lost; how
good they feel at the rise in gold; how greed
ily they send and communicate to each other
Ancona's letters addressed to the faithful;
they fatten on the misfortunes of the, coun
try and feel best whenever they think • the
friends of the Union ought to feel despond
ent
Keep up your courage, gentlemen. Do
your best to feel good while you fan. Our
army is yet strong enough for the traitors in
the South, and our laws will yet be strong
enough for the traitors in the Nbrth. Your
treasonable speeches, your Copperhead sneers
re well treasured up, and your words and
deeds and nmes will not be forgotten. The
time will come when the' idol before which
you crawl in the dust—Slavery—will be
wiped out, and the•flag of the Union will flint
, ever a glorious and a free people, redeemed
frOw its curse; and where will you then be,
ilid how will posterity regard yott?

No mail steamer would leave New Orleans
for New York during the week following the

The True Delta claims to have positive in
formation that the rebels under Dick Taylor,
left Alexandria three' weeks since for ItiCh
mond, and that the troops lately under him
are now commanded by Gen. Walker.
• It is the belief at Alexandria that Taylor,
who has been lately made Lieut. General,
hopes to be assigned to the command of the
trans-Mississippi department, in place , of
Kirby Smith, Taylor being a brother-in-law
of Jeff. Davis. This change is considered
quite probable.

CONFERENCE OF SECESSIONISTS AND COP
. PERHAM IN CODA.
2/14.GA,8A FALLS, July 16, 1864.
The opposite aide of the river is just now
the aceneof active conferences between promi
nent secessionists from Southern States and
active sympathiSers with secession in the
North. Clement C. Clay, of Alabama, Jacob
Thompson, of Mississippi, formerly a mem
ber of Buchanan's Cabinet, Beverly Tucker,
once United States Consul at Liverpool,
George N. Sanders; of Cosmopolitan and
miscellaneous notoriety, together with sundry
other gentlemen of the same political posi
tion, but less notoriety, are at the Clifton
House, where they are visited from time to
time by prominent Democrats and others of
secession sentiments—whose names I do not
. care just now to give.
There can be very little doubt that the ob
ject of this gathering is Political—and indeed
no secret is made by the parties concerned,
in conversing with persons in whom they
have confidence, of the particular purposes
they have in view. • They are endeavoring to
devise a basis for the action of the Chicago
Convention which shall accomplish two ob
jects at once, end the war and secure the triumph
of the Democratic parts. In other words, the
secessionists are seeking to frame a platform
for the Democratic party in the coming elec
tion.
I have been told that Clay and Thompson
do:not assume as yet to speak for the seceded
States—but they hold out vety strong hopes
of getting the assent of those States to the
propositions they put forth, provided the Dem
ocratic party will pledge itself in advance to
accept them as the basis of its foolitioal action.
What these propositions are, I am not au
thorized to say, bat I believe they embrace:
1. The return of the seceded States to the
Union. .„ •
2. The assumption of the Confederate debts.
3. The recognition of the freedom of the
slaves actually emancipated in the progress of
the war, and the status quo ante beUum as to all
others.
If the Democratic party of the Northern
States will insert these planks in its platform,
these secession emissaries hold out hopes of
being able to secure so general an assent to
them in the South, as to give the party great
strength in the election by promi-mg the re
storation of peace. Whether they have any
authority to make snab. , , pledges, I do not
know. lam inclined to think that they have
not, but that their mission is : purely volun
tary, and that its object is to give aid and com
fort to the Democratic party in the coming
.conteaL—Nita York Times.
KENTUCKY.
Cnronvxe 7, July 18.
There is the best authority for contradict
ing the report published this morning of a
rebel invasion ''of Kentucky through Pound
Gap.
Gen. Morgan is at Abingdon. His com
mand is said to be partially disorganized,
poorly equipped, and not in a condition to at
tempt another raid.
General Barbridge has issued an order of
retaliation npoo the guerrillas for the cruelties
perpetrated by them upon citizens of Ken
tucky. For every Union man murdered by
them he orders the instant execution, as near
the scene of outmees possible, of four guar
lilies, to be selected from prisoners in the
hands of the militsiy anthonties.

FROM WASHINGTON.
WunimaGros, July i&
There are indications of an intended return
of the raiders. Their movements are only
surmised. There is a great deal of activity
observable in certain quarters, which it would
be unwise just now to particularize.
Gen. Wallace, it is said, will not be re
moved. He has received the unbounded sup
port of a large number of personal friends and
admirers.
The Republican says that General Lee, com
manding the rebel forces on the Mississippi,
in the vicinity of Vicksburg, has been boast
ing in his official dispatches of late, of having
driven the Union forces, under Gen. A. J.
Smith, out of Jackson, Miss., and compelled
them to retreat towards Vicksburg. There is
little doubt now that we shall soon hear, by
some arrival up the Mississippi, of a decisive
battle and a Union victory over Lee. We
base this opinion upon information received
by the Government to the following effect :
The Richmond papers of Saturday, the
10th instant, received at General Grant's head
quarters before Petersburg, contain a dis
patch from the rebel Lieutenant General S.
D. Lee, dated Okalona, July 14th, 1864, an
nouncing that he had a fight at a place near
Tullalula, on the evening of tho 15th, and
found the enemy, under General Smith,
strongly. entrenched. General Lee says:
"This morning I attacked at Trillalnla; and
after a hard-fought battle, lasting three hours,
I found it impossible to drive Smith from his
position. It was a drawn battle."
The Government at Washington has no in
formation relating to the battle at Tullalula,
bid one thing is pretty certain, that any con
flict acknowledged by the rebels to be a drawn
battle, will turn out to be a Union victory.
General Lee makes no mention of his losses,
but preserves the usual rebel reticence on
that subject.
•
home of our military authrrities believe
that the late invading force of rebels has
started to reinforce Johnston at Atlanta.
Gen. Sherman was notified that this was
the fact, and in about 30 minutes • he tele
graphed back, saying, "Let them come, I am
ready for them." If these plunder-gorged
traitors attempt to pounce upon Sherman
they will meet a different reception from that
in Maryland last week.

CAPTURE OF PRISONERS AND WAGONS.
The Retreat—The Pursuit—Pro
bable Fighting—Rebel Losses. '
WARIIINGTON, Monday, July 18.
At 7 o'clock last evening our forces were
seven miles beyond Leesburg, in pursuit of
the rebels, who were making rapid time up
the Shenandoah Valley toward Staunton.
A number of stragglers were captured by
our cavalry and sent to the rear.
It was believed that Gen. Evans, severely
wounded in the recent fight in front of Wash
ington, was lying very low in the vicinity of
Leesburg, concealed by sympathisers.
A man came into Fort Ethan Allen yester
day with a pass dated Gen. Early's headquar
ters, July 15, at Leesburg. He said Early's
force was still at that place.
Heavy firing was beard yesterday at Great
Falls, in the direction of Edwards' Ferry, sup
posed to have been the collision between our
advance and the rebel rear.
On Saturday the enemy's. pickets were
posted along Goose creek, about 22 miles
above the Chain Bridge, 26 from Washington,
arid about half way between Drainesville and
yoLiesburg. The rebels were in strong force.
Rebel cavalry scouts in considerable num
bers came into Langley last night three miles
beyond Chain Bridge. They found our pick
eta, and cleared out with their knoweldge
quickened by musket balls.
The provisional brigade organized for the
defence of Washington, and composed of
slightly wounded men from the various hos
pitals, has been disbanded. Most of the men
were to-day sent to their regiments in the
field.
The Provost Marshal's records show 407
rebel prisoners captured north of Washington
since Monday last. This does not include
several hundred wounded rebels who were
sent to the different hospitals.
The rebel loss in killed, wounded and pris
oners in their domonstration on Washington
will over-go 2,000. The prisoners represent
63 different regiments, and belong to five dif
ferent divisions.
All of the prisoners interrogated say that
their officers had promised them the capture
of' Washington, and that that was understood
to 'be the object of their explidition.
The 2d Massachusetts Cavalry lost in its
fight at Aldie, July 6, over 80 men in killed,
wounded and captured. Captain Stone, of
NOwburyport, Adjutant General of his brig
ade, died of his wounds this morning. Major
Forbes, Lieutenant Armory and Chaplain
Humphreys were captured.
Col. Wisewell, Military Governor here, this
morning suggested to Secretary Stanton the
removal to the National Cemetery of the bodies
of the brave men who fell in defence of Wash
ington. The Secretary sat down instantly
and wrote this order:
•WAsan GTON, July 18, 1864.
Ordeal, That the Military Governor of
Washington cause the Union soldiers who
were killed in the recent defence of Washing
ton, to bsi carefully disinterred and honorably
buried in the National Cemetery with suitable
care, and memorials to preserve their identity.
EDWIN M. STANTON.
It is the intention of Col. Wisewell to have
the bodies buried in the circle in the centre
of the cemetery, and to erect a monument
over them inscribed with their names and regi
ments. and the nature of the service in which
they lost their lives.

Dispatches from Col. Ford, at Kansas City,
to headquarters here; say that he has just re
turned from Platte and Clay counties. His
command is now at Liberty, to which he
would immediately . return.
The rebels are broken into small bandit,
and are scattered through the counties.
Twenty-four of them were killed. Colonel
Ford suggests that the citizens of Platte and
Clay counties be not armed, as nine-tenths of
them are disloyal and have assisted Thornton
to raise his forces and have given him infor
mation, at the same time keeping everything
from our troops.
Col. Ford has notified the citizens of these
counties, that hereafter they will be held
strictly accountable for the conduct of guer
rillas. He has also called a meeting of citi
zens and rebel sympathizers at Liberty, when
he will tell them how they can save the coun
ties from desolation.
Col. Ford has taken 200 United States mus
kets from the hands of guerrillas, and has
burned rarehouses containing over 100 more,
with considerable ammunition, and has also
captured a battle-flag.
General Rousseau has issued an address to
the people of Northwest Missouri, stating
that they deceived him, and that while they
promised to preserve peace and aid the Gov
ernment, they have allowed guerrillas to live
and recruit amongst them, and that the arms
and ammunition put in their hands for the
preservation of the public peace have been
used to destroy it.
He tells them nothing is now left for them
to do only to wholly renounce and help to ex
terminate the common enemy, or the country
will become a desolation. All loyal and law
abiding citizens must promptly combine with
the military authorities in giving all possible
aid and assistance, or suffer the violence which
must follow the toleration of this species of
warfare, which finds no parallel even in our
Indian wars.

FORTRESS MONROE, Va., July 14.
Major John E. Mulford, agent of exchange,
left last night on the steamer O. W. Thomas,
with a flag of truce for James river. He car
ried with him a number of rebel prisoners,
for whom an• equivalent had been received.
This is the first interview that has taken place
between the agents of exchange • for several
weeks, in consequence of City Point, the place
agreed upon in the cartel for the exchange of
prisoners, being occupied by our forces. It
is expected that a new place of meeting will
be agreed upon at this interview, and the
truce boat will resume its trips for the ex
change of mailh, and, it is hoped, prisoners.
No mail will probably arrive by this boat.
Attempt to Rob the Calais Bank
by Rebels--Citizens Arming.
CALAD3, ME., July 18
At mid-day to-clay, there was an attempt to
rob the Calais Bank by a small party of rebel
raiders, who came here from St. John, N. B.
Three men were arrested. The leader of the
gang is Collins, a captain in the 15th Missis
sippi. They say that thirty associates pro
mised to meet them hare, but failed. The vigi
lance of the State Guard prevented the con
summation of this bold scheme of pillage.
The three men have been committed. The
citizens are arming, in expectation of an at
