M!Clelt%n. The evperhead National Convention did not astonish the country with the unconcealed treason sympathy of the resolutions adopted as their platform, nor will the word be amazed at the candidate pneforth., Far the Democratic leaders to do sensible act=—for e.opperheadiaa,ranic, blatantidongh-faceiim to show a stern front* favor Of: 't4audication of the country's wrcrigO'i' T was.*##`6ll to expect at this time • - kaiide; , the ferautions of the copperhead Ohidage Ocinvontfon were - adopted as much because . ..they. were *- . .81,1H. String of vague generalities: -as becatnnio•:7 4 Uotild be used to delude the ignO4toultsseN'of the North, and serve to •intiS4'llie, iii nsity of treason in the South. And in control of the same motive, the man NOlellan was nomi nated. His merit with copperhead Democ racy is, that he quarrelled with and sought the embarrassment of the National authorities— that he obtruded his political predilections as an obstacle to the performance of his sworn military duties—and that he is the open, un qualified friend of the South. cer tainly was not nominated because, he had achieved military fame. He does not possess the prestige of a great leader, and therefore he was not nominated for any tacit in that re spect. He is no statesman, and hence the Democracy did not make him their candidate because he might be influential in restoring the land to peace with a dash of his pen.. The simple truth is, that M'Olellan was nominated just as the platform was adopted--for his hatred of the Administration, for his sympa thies with the slave States, and for his unal terable attachments to slavery. NO doubt he will rally to his standard, every man convicted of a wrong against the Government. He will have supporters in the Generals Porter and WOall; warm friends in the Hammonds—bla tant advocates in every exposed or punished traitor in the free. States—but that any con eidertible number of intelligent or brave men will vote for him, we cannot and will not be- Bove until the fact is established at the polls. It needs only the election of George B. Olen= to establish the principle of -States' rights, which of itself would be an eternal bar rier to the re-construction of which the DC mooracy so much boast. But his election to the Presidency would establish other heresies. It would secure the sanctity of slavery, the independence'of the confederacy, and the per petual antagonism of the States North and South. After the blood and treasure which have been expended in defending the Govern ment and the Union, it is not likely that the American people will accept a candidate for the Presidency who is known to be the friend of their enemies, and the enemy of their friends. Failure of the Negro Substitute Scheme We have been paying some•attention to the business committed, by the several counties of this State, to agents who were authorized to procure substitutes in the revolted States to fill up the quotas of such counties. The bbjeet was to induce negroes to 'enlist, by the offer of large bounties. It appears now, however, that the entire scheme will prove a failure, not because the negroes of the South are unwilling to fight, but because almost every able-bodied freedman is 'now engaged in some capacity in connection with the army. Maj. (len. Shernian's letter in which he dis countenanced the business, is supposed to have had some influence in producing tho failure. He claims that the .llnion armlet now in the South have a right , to the co-ope ration of every freedman in rebeidom, besides the support and companionship of every white man in the loyal States capable of mili tary service. This is sound doctrine, and has had something to do with the failure to procure negro substitutes in the South, to fill up quotas on the draft in the North. The districts failing thus to fill up their quotas will be compelled to bring out their own fighting Material, which is the most honora ble mode of responding.to a call of the Gov ernment for troops to fill up its armies. htnsrlatzso Nsvi lizonurrs.—A recent order from the War Department directs thathereaf ter recruits for new organizationain military service, shall be mustered in in the semen:tan ner as those for old organizations; that ii, in eompat i es by mustering officers at tbe, getter ralsendessous of the regiment, and advance bounty will not be paiditilllomy rolls ere msde Oat, , company ofitaera will not be mus tered till ,00mpanies are full; and field , sad g a g G ow er e ii,*.sll thereginissitiscutfir4ed.

Whenever a sensible rein liears a croaker talking about stopping the war, to establish 1 3 e4c0, it would be well to put the ques tions, whether the peace he seeks will restore the National Union, enforce the law of death 'to traltors, compel obedience to the National authorities, :put an end to the machil*tii p s of the slave:holder to destroy free ?As, force respect to the Federal offic e rs, attkir ever place it beyond the reach of politicians to organize another such a rebellion. And he ight still further .ask whether peace thtia sought by the dough-face will prove to the world the ability of the American people to maintain their Government against all ene mies—whether the_ National Union will be secured in all its former strength. These are questions which every blatant , peace man will shrink from answering; heause the peace theyseek has other objects in View. What the dough-face Democrat means by peace, is to vindicate'the prowess of the South, and to re cognize its ability successfully to rebel—to acknowledge that slaiery_ is more potential than freedom—to concede that the "mud sills" of the free States, the Wordy and intelligent mechanics and laborers of the North, are in capable of conducting a war with the chivalry of the South—to assume the war debt, f the revolted States and to afford the trait= Oresent facilities for re-organising rebellion in order to make its success in the fufure , afized fact. The peace which the dough-face Democrat seeks, implies everything but the-Vindication of the national honor, the triumph of the national arms, the enforcement of the national laws, the stability of the National Government, or the safety of the National Union. What is sought for by the peace men professing De mocracy, is the safety and the influence of the institution of slavery—the upholding of the slave power, and the support of the aristoc racy which it breeds. What white freeman in the free States desirei such peace?

Army of,the Potomac mportant Order Concerning Newspaper Cor respondents. CORRECTION OF FALSE RUMORS WASSIN(+TON, Sept. 1,) 1864. A letter from the Army of the Potomac, dated yesterday, says the rule requiring cor respondents with the, army .to .publish• their fAI names as signatures to their taispataies, _and which has been neglected by a number of .tiiisse gentlemen, is again insisted upon, and those who omit doing it in future need not hope to remain here. • It is also required that they shall locate themselves with some particular corps, divis ion or detachment where they may be ad dressed or sent for at all times. This, however, will not of course prevent them from moving abbut to attend to their business duties. Attention is called to the fact that sevral errors occurred in a dispatch dated August Ist, describing the battle of the 19th. Two statements are, the subjects of complaint, namely, that the. Second Division of the Fifth comp broke, and that our whole line: was then forced back. The Second ..thvision. it< is planned did not break, nor did any other be fore a direct assault, and our line was not driven back. Everything was quiet yesterday and last night along our lines, and the position of af fairs is not materially altered. lieernits and convalescents continue to ar rite daily in increased numbers, and a greatly improved feeling prevails in the army, both among the °Moms and men.
