paik &V* HARRISBURG, pA.;:. SATURDAY EVENING, AUGUST II ) 1864. NAT lONAL UNION TICKET. FOR rit"mrst ' Abraham Lincoln, or =proms. FOB vlor, PRESIDEiOr. - Andrew- , Union County Convention. The loyal citizens of Dauphin county: are invited to meet in County Convention, for the purpose of nominating candidates for leanly officers, at the Court House in the city of Harrisburg, on Tuesday, the sixlll day. of September, 1864, at 10i o'clock, A. M. Meetings for the election of delegates will , be held in the various townships of the, coun ty, at the usual places of holding said eleo .tions, between the hours of five and seven P. Ng and the several wards and boroughs be tween the tops of seven a n d bine p. M., ;on Saturday, September 3d, 1864. • T r ltOtaAs, Chairman Union County Committee. S. B. Cifirm, Secretary. • Bounty, Swindlers. We ledizn from the Lancaster Exp.& s that 'the city of Lancaster and some districts -in the'county, have paid large sums of inoney for purpose of paying bounties to enlisted men who credited themselves to their respect ive districts, that the proper credits were ob tained, but the soldier's Who were to receive , the money, for performing military duty have been outrageously swindled by car "tailf 'bounty, 'brokers. The Express states that the following facts can be proven, viz: "That I ieut. Barnes received about $87,- 000, which was. paid by different wards, bor ,ouglas and townships,a portion of which was from this county. or tnese men the credits promised were given. - - "That among the credits bins ,given were members of companies B and 0, 16th Y. B. 0., who. were not paid.. When 13arnes,was cornered about the matter, he said he had paid their money to 'Stuart A. Wylie, and, to justify himself, produced Wylie's receipt for $23,000, referring the officers of those compa nies to him for payment. "That Wylie has been "settling" with those veterans by paying them from $125 to. $175 each—some who refused ,these figures being still unpaid—while the taxpayers are charged with from $3OO to $320 eaoh for the credits. "It is also alleged, and believed in quErters well informed, that the intention was to pre fer charges against Lie% Barnes, but that a son of Col. Bamford, 'clerk in the Provost Marshal's office at Harrisburg, being interest ed with Barnes in the "profits,,"this' pro oeeding was stayed by some' mystelicius in fluence." this Lieut. Barnes was for some time past a prominent 'official" in,the office of the Pro vost Marshal tltneral, under Lieut. Col. Bamford, and we referred frequently to the zastrty•complaints made against that . office. it was notoriously proclaimed that none but those who _were _in the _g!ring'' °mad, *Fano sot any business with promptness through that office. Whether Col. Bomford's son had any interest in these fraudulent transactions we are linable to say, and we , refer our reaoers to the closing paragraph of the article in the Etzpress on that subject. It reads this: "Since our last article,'we learn, to our • sitrptise, that when the bounty money from this city Was paid at Harrisburg, neither the 'Treasurer nor the Committee saw the men 'for vitLora,it was paid. It Was paid to certain l'agehts," who were "endorsed" by Col. Bam ford. This fact may throw some light upon the suppression of proceedings against Lieut. Barnes, for the reasons alleged—tbo loom plicity of yetung Bomford, Sze." If Col.,Bmliford really proyentedhivestiga tion, let it be done now, -since he is removed froth O&M. We' have no doubt that Major rkkdge, thii, present ineumbent, - wilLeheerfully have the matter investigated, and' we ,yticoPe that it may be done without delay. Whilst on this subject we would respect fnlly call the attention of Major Dodge to the notorious conduct of several bounty brokers, who arts Constantly robbing the men who en list in the service of the United States. It is a notorions fact .that dishicts, •counties and private individuals pay from $2OO to 5900 bounty for substitutes and credits to men who enter the service, and - yet, the men who actu- Ally enlist with an honest intention to „serve the Government faithfully, scarcely receive oNE-Rhirm THE suer PAID. Some of these very men who, ate engaged as bounty brokers in this city to-day, are men' who have been dis graeettillydischafged.from the United States service, and are now doing•everything to M- I jtire the Government by al . & euslion,est:con duct; others have been banished from this city before for swimeldis,ted pierl, and we hope that Maj. tiOdge,Ai e.. military coM mandeiof the post, will - zAt tiderate them in this department any longer.

Slight Mittudation for Hqpe. A Southern paper has the following The'happiest augury of peace which the telegraph wires have flashed, to us for two years, as the Action of the Democratic Con ventions of Kentucky, Ohio and Illinois. They:have sent delegatesio the Natiohal Con ventiou; with instructions ,to vote for a Peace Platforin framed upon the principles of Long's Nxecti;-= At last, then, the banner of truth is being lifted over ths.ltesds of a people who have been staggering in passion, blood and darkness for three 'years. Drowning men,. it is said, will catch at straws, and we think the condition of Rebel dout must' be deepeiste if it expects anything from the action of the Chicago Convention. The operations of, a score of such gatherings can never inaugurate peace in this country upon the policy suggested by Mr. Long. The general Government has gone sufficiently into this war to now continue it until nut an armed rebel is left in the land. No proposition looking to any other end would be entertained by the loyal citizens of the United States. They have expended their treasure and spilled their blood to the accoinplishinent of this end, and having grown earnest in the work; they do not look back over the terrible field.of carnage occasioned by rebellious attempts against the Government. The only "banner" they know is the flag of our country, and that must and will float undisputed from the , lakes to the - gulf. ' 'PRE PRICE OF PArEn----Shall _Extortion Con tinueP—The Bellows Falls Times thinks that there is no necessity for the present high price of printing, paper, and says that some of the papers in the northern part of the State have suggested that the newspaper publishers in that State should combine and own or build mills of their own. It says further, if this matter had been seriously put forth only a few weeks ago,u mill.could have been secured, at a very reaionable price and on easy terms, and paper could have been obtained at a cost of less.than 16 cents per pound, which is 14 cents less than is now being asked, for it. num recent circular issued by the War Department, many persons erroneously sup posed that the As,istant Provost Marshal General has anthority to egalize the men fur nished by tlfe sul.?'-districts since the com mencement of the war. He cannot go back . of the settlement made between the State and General Government on the 24th of October, 1863.
