Etley* 11A,R1IISB1JaG, SITURDAT EVENING, SEPTEMIII- 1,1864: NATIONAL UNION TICKET. FOR PRESIDENT, Abraham Lincoln, OF rmwAs.: POE TIC PRESIDENT. Andrew JolAnson, OF TENNESSEE. Col. H. 0. Alleman. We have made but little allusion to this gentleman during his present official career, but we itre free to confess that we watched _ and scrutinized his coarse during the last two setzioUs:of the Legislature both :closely and critlettlly. He gave unmistakable evidences of ability which far exceeded the most san guine expectations of his friends, and even his political enemies admire his talents and acknowledge his superior fitness for the po sition he wimples. There is no disguising or denying the faot that Col. H. C. Alleman has proved himself one of the very, .best Rep resentatives which Dauphin county has yet sent to the Legislature, and added to his ea' parity, he has, and uses unswerving energy, high-toned dignity and honor, close applica tion 'to business, always in his place, and ever watchful over the interests of his constitu ents, as well as the Commonwealth at large. Daring the last two sessions Cal. Alleman never missed a vote, although part of the time he did himself great injustice by attending the sessions, when severe illness would have justified him in being confined to bed, but he had the interests of his constituents at heart, and was willing to make any personal sacri fice for their benefit. We are pleased to learn that Col. Alleman has no opposition whatever for a re-nomination, and his re-election by an increased and handsome majority is conceded on all hands. If the people were generally as careful in the selection of their legisla tors there would be less of the odium which turf attaches to the General Assembly. 'ihe Pensions of the Disabled Brave. We alladed yesterday, to the positive decla rations of leading copperheads at the recent Chicago Convention, to the effect that if the Deraocracy succeeded in electing McClellan, peace would immediatelY - follow, and then the debt incurred in conducting "this unright eons war," would be repudiated. Then, ex claimed one of the speakers of* the assembled faithful at Chicago, the -20's and 10-40's now hoarded by the rich, will not be worth a pinch of snuff. Such a repudiation will affect more than the bonds of the Government—it will vitiate and render worthless every dollar of money issued by the nation, and leave more than the rich to regret their confidence in the Government. It will, of course, be a repudi ation of every obligation created by the strug gle to secure the substantial peace of the Country. _Every disabled soldier now living on his pension—every widow and fatherless child now dependent on the nob/6 care of the Govern ment for supprt—every aged parent who has given the only support they possessed, in the son who was sacrificed in battie—all alike, the cred itor who gave his material substance, the sol dier who wasted his strength; ; and the wife and mother, who . gave their - , dear - est love and -affection~all will be swept WO beggary to" complete the Democratic triumph should George icClellan be creme President, and thereby be made the tool of the demagogues to whom he is in debted for his nomination. 143:t 11S not be mis taken in this fact. When rebellion was in preparation the people of the loyal States were billed to sleep by the DenAratio leaders with the assurance that the South did not mean war, but only the stern vindication of their "social and domestic institutions." Events have Since proves what the South really did mean, while the ashes of burned Cham bersburg prove the devilish purport of these outrages. Now the same Democratic leaders insist that the election of 31'CleHan only means "peace." Let the people beware' of the "peace" thus offered, because it will be one of bankruptcy and beggary-,of humiliation and shame—of ruinand degradation—of a country changed on the map of the world, and of a government erased from the roll of nations. Political. Centre county presents a^ strong Union tickeHirr tfirrsoppoif.bl - the'people thereof at the Ootober election: . The following are the nix4inations Assembly, Maj. Robert .11 Forster; Cott: missioner, John R. Forster; Auditor, John Irwin. The same convention also nominated Ed refund Blanchard, of Bellefonte, as the candi date for State Senator, subject to the confirma tion of the conferees of the Senatorial Dis trict. Mr..Blanohard is extensively known to the prominent men of the State, and recog nized as one of the ablest and most honora ble lawyers in the profession. He would make a Senator of whom any distriot might well be prondouid we earnestly 'trust that we may have the pleasure of seeing him occupy a seat in the Senate the coming winter. It is tanderstood that the-Congressi.•nal Conferees of Centre county will vote for William H. Armstrong, which will secure him the nomi nation of the district. Delaware county haiOnst nominated the following strong ticket, the best iu all respects ever put forth by the tnion men of that aountr_ • Congress, John M. , Broomall; Senate, Cooper Talley; Assembly, >Ellwood !Tyson; Commissioner, George Drayton; Di rector of the Poor, David Trainer; Coroner, 'George W.- &emelt; Auditor, Smut Dot. egik • - • `.1:1110:1110T" MGR tho, Vrickodnotor of tits Administration. Why. dom It iS4I to we ti! lOWANS ask. loom*? • Saarfoleir of - Treason- ilreai: -the Chicago Market. We cull some choice specimens of the "Free Speech " which it is the "great mission of the Democratic party" to protect, from the pre liminary orations at Chicago that inspired and indoetrianted the 'representative masses of that party attending upon the Convention : At one of the meetings held on Saturday night, the distinguished Isaiah Rynders, one of the main pillars of the Democracy in New York, very candidly said : "At the old line Whig Convention someone. had called the Southern people traitors, but he knew the South were as gallant, chivalrous, and noble a pe•pie as God ever .created. (Cat calls, yells, and other DerioCratic applause.) - He was sorry the South had taken the steps they had, but God knows they had just cause to act as thfy did ad." Benjandn. Allyn, of New York, did not be lieve there was a secessionist per, se in the whole South, and if the abolitionists were thrown:mit of power they would all come back. The people saw this, and if they could not put Lincoln out by ballots, they would raise en masse and do it by bullets." The Hon. F. A. Leaver, of New York, de glared, "peacefully if tee can, forcibly xf we must, we will no lona. support this war." Col. Stambaugh, of Ohio, said in a loudly applauded speech, that "When this war is over he would not give a pinch of snuff for the 5:20s and the 10:40e hoarded by the lieh." James H. Reed,'s member of Congress from Indiana, made a speech which even the Chi cago Times shirked from publishing, until, by emasculation, it was stripped of the major portion of its outspoken.treason. He declared open hostility to the draft, and urged on all, if Abraham the Ist and his sa traps attempted to enforce it, to resist it to the death. Let every one, he said, who preferred liberty to death, arm himself, if he could get no others to join him, and where there were others, let them organize in squads and com panies, and with arms, drill twice a week and be prepared for the worst. If anybody in shoulder-straps attempts to arrest you without a warrant, shoot him down. If thcy come in force, call in your neighbors and fight them to: the death. Who were they ? Only weak men like ourselves, who had usurped the duties of the civil authorities.. A million and a half of freemen were opposed to this military despot ism, and could wipe it out in a day. There is much more of the same. sort to be got from the oratory of the great occasion at Chicago; but this may be enough:to show how wofully the "freedom of speech" has been sup-. pressed in this poor, tongue-tied country of ours, and to demonstrate how'vitally necessary t is for the . "Democratic party", to restore to American citizens the liberty of untrammelled utterance. Washington on Tories. The tories of the Revolution occupied pre cisely the place of the Copperheadti in our day. They resisted the Government, gave aid and comfort to the enemy, got up a fire in the rear upon every occasion that offered, and did their best to distract and divide the puhli.c sentiment and bring defeat upon the army.. General Washington, although mild, amiable and conciliatory, could not stand these Cal lows, and ho accordingly advocated extreme measures against them. In a letter to Gov ernor Trumbull, of . Connecticut, • written dur ing the Revolution, in relation to disaffected and disloyal persons, he said: "As it is now very apparent that we have nothing to depend upon in the present con test but our own strength, care, firmness and union, should , not the same measures be adopted in your and every other Government on the continent? Would it not be prudent to seize on those tories who have been, are, and that we know Will be active against us P Why should persons, who are preying upon the vitals of their country. be suffered to skulk at targe while we know they will do us every mischief in their power? These, sir, are points I beg leave to submit to your serious considerations." These are our sentiments exactly, and the argument that was good then, is equally good now. Why, indeed, "should persons, who are preying upon the vitals of their country, be Permttted to skulk at large?" Especially with arms in their hands, ready for assassina tion, arson, or any other villainy that will help their allies—the rebels. Or why should they beallowed.to secrete immense quantities of fire-arms and ammunition on the plea of having the right to bear arms. If our author- ities have been at fault in these matters, the error. las been . on the side of . lenieney. We hope that no further harm will come of it. “The Key Note.” At a recent meeting of the Democratic asso ciation in Washington, Dr. Allen declared that he would make every proposition to the South to come back again, but if they failed he would not prosecute a war against a people who had a right to declare what form of gov ernment they would live under. Amos Ken dall, who was present, said "that was just what our opponents would have us say—that we were willing to divide the Union, if a com promise could not be had. Let us first elect our men ; unite to put down this iniquitous administration, and then we can lo' this or any other - thing that may be practicable/ And the:Boston Courier, in remarking upon the preceediugs, says Mr. Kendall "gives the true key-note to the Democratic music. Un doubtedly he does. Not a word against the proposition to divide the Union. We must put down this administration, says Mr. Ken dall, and then we can "do this or any other thing that may be practicable." Let us choose good and true men, says the Courier, that is, lotus choose our men, "and all the rest may be safely lef t to the future." _ • • REMEMBER DOEGLLS.—The words of Doug las at the outbreak of the rebellion have not yet lost their significance. If there is a peace man who divides his sympathies between the North and the South, or who believes that the issue of war or peace hangs now, or ever did, upon the result of a Prosidentialcontest, , . • let him ponder wei4 the ords - Of the great words of of the Democrat - 5y " The skive question is a mere excuse.

One of the funniest things that ever oc curred, or perhaps ever will occur, took place at the regular opening of the Convention at Chicago, on Tuesday last : On the conclusion of the benediction by Bishop Whitehouse, which constituted a part of the opening exercises, he commenced the recitation of .the Lord's Prayer, in which the delegates attempted, by request, to join in concert, and it is described by an eye-witness as the richest of all rich affairs. The an nouncement was hardlymade by the reverend gentleman, and he had but articulated the opening words of the prayer, when confusion confounded ran through the whole assembly. Had they been called on to join in the chorus of "Pass the Flowing Bowl," or " The Bon nie Blue Flag," or " Just another Drink Be fore We Go," they would have been equal to the emergency ; but the Lord's Prayer was " too many" for them. However,. for the sake of harmony, (?) they started in. One delegate, whose early educe tien evidently had not been neglected, vocif erated at the to of his voice, "Now I lay me down to sleep;" a Western delegate thought himself all right with "On Jordan's stormy banks I stand;" a clerical brother, "Our life hangs by a single thread a delegate from the Wabash was troubled as to "When shall I see Jesus;" a peace fellow from Illinois gave with good nasal twang, "How tedious and tasteless the hour;" a New Yorker (capt. Ryn ders probably) seemed anxious to know when he "Could tread his title clear to mansions in the skies, and a short-haired Bowery Boy was anxious to "let her rip," because he claimed "she's all oak;" a tavern-keeper cleverly piped, "Hy spirits never wane;" a country squire, the first time from home, proclaimed, "Know all men by theab presents,' and a Keystone boy capped the climax with, "Down with tte traitors, up with the flag." The furor was of but short duration, but indescribably funny and characteristic. The Lord's prayer had evidently "played out ' with the Chicago Convention. J3O Eciegrap CAPTURE OF ATLAITII !

WASEINGTON, Sept. 2 An official dispatch received here to-day says the murders and depredations on the plains are committed by comparatively few of the several Indian tribes. It is understood the Indian Bureau has sent thither a special agent with a view to the pacification of the disaffected savages. The fact may not be generally known that the Governor of Colorado has issued a procla mation urging either individuals or armed or ganizations to kill and destroy the hostile Indians, and seize their property, distinguish ing between those which are friendly and those which are not so. _ This proceeding of the Governor is independent of the Federal authorities, and may increase rather than lessen the calamities to which settlers and emigrants are now exposed.
