HARRISBURG, PA
WEDNESDAY EVENING, OCTOBER n, 1864.
NATIONAL UNION TICKET.
FOR PRESIDENT,
Abraham Lincoln,
OP MUNOZ&
FOR VICE PRESIDENT.
Andrew Johnson,
OF TEWIntSSZIZ.
The Speakers at the Mass Meeting To
Night
The Vice President of the United States,
Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, will be one of the
speakers at the meeting, in the hall of the
House of Representatives, to-night. Among
the ablest men in the country, having had a
vast experience in public affairs, and being
identified with the great measures devised for
the rescue of the land from rebellion, Vice
President Hamlin is one of those best fitted
to discuss the great issues of the issue, and as
sist in guiding the nation into the paths of
peace and prosperity. No intelligent man
should fail. to hear him to-night.
Major Harry White, long a prisoner at Rich
mond, where, he suffered all the horrors of
rebel inhumanity and Southern barbarity,
will also address the meeting this evening, in
the House. Major White has troops of friends
in Harrisburg, who will give him a glorious
greeting this evening. He will relate the
story of his suffering while in the hands of
the chivalry, and thus add another chapter to
the history of the ignominy of modern Democ
racy, and adduce another argument against
investing the sympathizers with treason with
civil power.
Naturalizing Discharged Soldiers
There is no test of devotion so good as that
which is established by a disposition to peril
life and limb for that to which we profess at
tachment. For instance, the man who is wil-
ling to fight in defence of a Government,facing
danger and death in its behalf, is deserving of
its highest recognition and best rewards'
Congress was imbued with this spirit, when'
in 1862, an important amendment was made
to the naturalization laws of the United States,
by which an alien of the age of twenty-one
years and upwards, who had enlisted, or
might thereafter enlist in the armies of the
United States, either in the regular or volun
teer forces, may become a citizen by virtue of
his service. The act was passed July 17,
1862. It secures to any alien who has been a
soldier, and has been honorably discharged,
the right of citizenship upon his own petition,
without a previous declaration of intentions.
He must prove that he has resided in the
United States one year before his application,
and also prove his good moral character in
the ordinary manner, and must also produce
proof that he has been honorably discharged.
There are many aliens who have been in ser
vice and whose time has expired, to whom this
privilege will apply, and it is as well that the
terms of the law should be generally under
stood.
"The Peace Democracy."
That faction of the copperhead organization
known as the " Peace Democracy " ate pan
dering to the cowards and mercenaries of the
North, with promises of an early settlement
of the war on the basis of the Federal Union,
hoping thereby to delude their victims with
the idea that such a settlement can only bo
effected by placing the Democratic party in
power. There is a question attached to these
Democratic promises, which it would be well
for timid people always to put to the men
preaching their power to secure an early
peace. Why did not the Democratic leaders
maintain the peace of the country when they
had the control of the affairs of the Govern
ment? Before the war bad assumed its pre
sent magnitude, before the rebellion had
thrown off the mask which concealed itsbloody
antagonism of freedom, the Democratic party
was in authority, and had the power to make
peace. When South Carolina left the Union,
James Buchanan was President of the United
States—the U. S. Senate was controlled by a
Democratic majority—the Supreme Court was
Democratic--the sinews and resources of war
were commanded by Democrats, and yet the De
mocracy were unable to maintain the peace! They
were not only unable to preserve the peace,
but they actually, in their official capacity,
embezzled the funds 'and appropriated the
property of the Government, to give magni
tude and strength to treason. Keeping these
facts in view, how can any max be deluded
with the “Democratic " declaration that the
" Democratic " party, if placed in power, will
be able to restore the laud to peace. Certain
ly that which " Democratic " officials could
not preserve, " Democratic " politicians cannot
restore. The only party capable of re-inaugu
rating peace, is that which is able to meet
armed rebellion with arms, take it by the throat
and choke it either into obedience or into
the grave.
An Old Democrat on the Preßldeney
The Hon. Robert J. Walker, of Mississippi,
Las written a letter from London, in which he
unfolds his sentiments on the Presidential
question very fully and clearly. H e h as
doubtless had abundant opportunities df
witnessing the operations of the traitors
on the other side of the Atlantic, besides
being fully informed himself as to the
merits of the issues of the day, and he
speaks in the most unhesitating manner in
support of the constitutionality of the acts of
President Lincoln during the war for the sup
pression of the rebellion. Of the Emancipa
tion Proclamation he says: "As a war mea_
sure it was perfectly constitutional." He asks
the soldiers to remember the slander and the
insult awarded them at the Chicago Conven
tion. He asserts that an armistice would re..
suit in the ruin of all our manufacturers . of
cotton and other textile fabrics, and our com
merce generally, and it would be but the hat.
binges of that foreign recognition so much
sought after by the rebels. He adds that
"there will be no recognition of the independ
ence of the South by France or England, or
any other Power, if Abraham Lincoln should
be re-elected in November next." In addition
to all this "the National character will be im
mensely exalted." These are the opinions of
one of the foremost of American Democrats--
a Southern Democrat, and as such, are enti-
led to the respectful consideration of all who
ove their country.
The Insulter of the Heroes of Pennsyl-
vania
It is a little strange, that the "Democratic
party," always the party that heretofore em
broiled the country in foreign wars—that pro
voked war with France—that brought about
the last war with Great Britain—that came
near a third war with that Government, but
ignominiously backed down because the issues
then did not concern slavery, and that hur-
ried on the war with Mexico, because the ob
jest was to strengthen slavery by the acquire
ment of territory out of which to erect slave
States—it is very strange that this party
should not only be for peace at a time when
on successful war depended the safety of the
Government, but that it should accept as a
candidate for the Presidency, a soldier who
had bolstered up his own reputation by slan
dering and vituperating the brave men who
fought where he was too cowardly to lead or
follow. When General McClellan was sur
prised by the rebels at Fair Oaks, in the Penin
sular campaign, he threw the whole blame of
the affair upon General Casey's division,which
he had pushed out far in advance. McClellan
in his official dispatch to the War Department,
said that "Casey's division, which was in the
first line, give way unaccountably and dis
creditably," and also that "all the troops, with
the exception of Casey's division, behaved
splendidly." The men of the division thus
libelled by General McClellan, knew that they
had done their very best, but had to give way
in consequence of the superior numbers of
the enemy and the bad generalship of the
commander of the army. A largo number of
Pennsylvania troops were attached to Gen.
Case Y's division. These troops were brave
and gallant men—men who entered the fight
to serve their country and rescue it from the
hands of traitors. Yet, in order to cover up
his own incompetency and reckless neglect of
duty in permitting the enemy to surprise his
command, George B. McClellan did not hesi
tate to slander his companions-in -arms and
place a foul stain on the front of American
valor. Is such a man worthy of the highest
position in the gift of the American people?
—ln addition to this foul aspersion of the
valor of Casey's division, George B. McClellan
has also been guilty of libelling other soldiers
of Pennsylvania. We all remember his at
tack on the Pennsylvania Reserves—an attack
which has no equal for malignity and untruth
in the annals of libel. He charged the Penn
sylvania Reserves with cowardice, denounce
ing those who commanded its regiments with
incompetency, and struggling with falsehood
to show that they had disgraced the service.
Gen. McCall, the commander of; that corps,
publicly repelled these attacks, proving con
clusively that McClellan was governed en
tirely by personal feeling in these - assaults,
and that they were indulged in to save him
self from the obloquy which he sought to cast
on others. We want the veterans of the Penn
sylvania Reserves, as well as their friends, to
remember that the man who now seeks an ele
vation to the Presidency by their aid, did not
hesitate at an attempt to disgrace them forever,
when he believed that the libel woulesecure
him from the condemnation of his country
men, earned by an incompetency in the com
mand of the army.
McClellan on His Dignity
The friends of Gen. McClellan are in the
habit of placing their favorite on his dignity,
and claiming for him an exemption from all
personal animadversion, as .a shield to protect
him from the criticism for which he is so fair
a subject. When McClellan is thus put upon
his dignity, we are reminded of the proud
scorn with -which he was induced, in his igno
rance, to treat our greatest of captains, the man
who for half a century maintained the mar
tial glory and fame of his country—Maj. Gen.
Winfield Scott. When McClellan was trans
ported from Western Virginia, and plaeed in
command of the Army of the Potomac,his first
act was one of insubordination and insult to his
superiors, for which he should have been court
martialed and dismissed the service. Puffed
with his own arrogance and flattered into a
base conceit, heideliberately refused to recog
nize Gen. Scott, and grossly insulted the vet
eran chief by reporting direct to the War De
partment instead of to the commander-in
chief of the army. It was this insult which
drove Gen. Scott from the service. The old
hero could not brook the slight of a boy if not
of a martinet, who by just such assump
tions as these, was led from error to error,.
until he had well nigh wrecked his govern
ment and disgraced his country. All over
the land there are still thousands of old sol
&ars who served with Scott on the frontiers
and in Mexico. Will these heroes permit this
insult of the old chief to go =rebuked?
Indiana Election.
Official returns have been received from all
but twelve counties, showing a Union major
ity of 21,911. The counties to hear from may
reduce this eight or nine hundred, but Mor
ton's majority, we are confident, will not be
less than 21,000.
The footings of the returns, so far as re
ceived, are
Union
Democrat
Union majority
In 1862. the Democratic majority was 7,176.
Now the Union majority is over 21,000. Bet
ter than all, is the election of eight :Union
Gongressmen out of eleven. In 1862, the
Unionists had but four.

ESPAIRING APPEAL FOR NEL'
WASHINGTON, October 26.
The following has been received at the War
Department :
Gerrarsymrs, ALL, Oct. 24, VIA RO3IE, GA.,
Oct. 25-11aj. Gen. iralieck, We/ of
Staff :—The following is a copy of the address
of Beauregard, on assuming command of the
Army of the West :
DEADBIIANTEES, MILITARY DIVISION. OF
THE WEST, OCt. 17.
In assuming command at this critical junc
ture, of the Military Division of the West, I
appeal to my countrymen of all classes and
sections for their generous support and con
fidence. In assigning me to this responsible
position, the President of the Confederate
States has extended to me the assurance of
his earnest support. The Executives of your
States meet me with similar expressions of
their devotion to our cause. The noble army
in the field, composed of brave men and gal
lant officers, are not strangers to me; and I
know that they will do all that patriots can
achieve.'
r The history of the past,written in the blood
of their comrades, but forshadows the glorious
future which lies before them. Inspired with
these bright promises of success, I make this
appeal to the men and women of my country
to lend me the aid of their earnest and cordial
co-operation. Unable to join in the bloody
conflicts of the field, theycan do much to
strengthen our cause, fill up our ranks, en
courage our soldiers, inspire confidence, dis
pel gloom, and thus hasten on the day of our
final success and deliverance.
The army of Sherman still defiantly holds
the city of Atlanta. 'He can and must be
driven from it. It is only for the good peo
ple of Georgia, and the surrounding States,
to speak the word, and this work is done.
We have abundance of provisions. There
are men enough in the country liable and
able for service to accomplish this result. To
all such I earnestly appeal to report prompt
ly to their respective commands, and let those
who cannot go, see to it that none remain at
home who are able to strike a blow, in this
critical and decisive hour.
To those soldiers of the army who are ab
sent from their commands without leave, I
appeal in the name of their brave comrades,
with whom they have in the past so often
shared the privations of camp and the dan
gers of the battle field, to return at once to
their duty. To all such as shall report to
to their respective commands, in response to
this appeal, within the next thirty days, an
amnesty is hereby granted.
My appeal is to every one of all classes and
conditions, to come forward freely, cheerfully
and with good heart to the work that lies be
fore us.
My countrymen ! respond to this call as
you have done in days that have passed, and
with the blessing of a kind and over-ruling
Providence, the enemy will be driven from
your soil.
The security of your wives and daughters
from insults and outrages of a brutal foe
shall be established soon, and be followed by
a permanent and honorable peace. The
claims of home, country, wife and children,
uniting with demands of honor and patriot
ism, summon us to the field. We cannot,
dare not, will not, fail to respond. Full of
hope and confidence, I came to join in your
struggles, sharing your privations, and with
your brave and true men to strike the blow
that shall bring success to our arms, triumph
to our cause, and peace to our country.
