He Accepts the Nomination for Governor and Defines His Position. NIAGARA FAiLD, CANADA WREIT,i July 15. Arrested and confined for three weeke in the United States, a prisoner of state; banished thence to the Confederate States, and there held as an alien enemy and prigoner of war, though on parole; fairly and honorably dealt with and given.leave to depart, an act possible only by running the bloCkade at the hazard of being fired upon by ships flying the flag of my own country, I found inyself first a freeman when on Brithh soil.' And to day, under pro tection of. the British flag, I am here, to enjoy and in part to exercise the privileges and rights which usurpers insolently deny me at home. . The shallow contrivance of the weak despots at Washington, and their advisers, has been defeated. Nay, it has been turned against them; and 1, who for two years was maligned as in secret league with the Confederates; hay ing refused when in their midst, under circum stances the most favorable, either to identify myself with their cause or even so much as to remain, preferring rather exile in a foreign land, return now with allegiance to my own State and. Goveroatent, unbroken in word, thought or deed, and with every dalaration and pledge to you while at home, andobefore I was stolen away, made good in spirit and to the very letter. Six weeks ago, when just going into banish ment, because an audacious but most cowardly despotism caused it, I addressed you as a fel low-citizen. To-day, and from the very place then selected by me, but.after wearisome and most perilous journeying for more than four thousand miles by land and upon the sea, still 'in exile,though almost in sight of my native State, greet yon as your representative.- - Gratefut certainly , I am for the 'confidence in . 'my - integrity and 'patriotism, implied by the unanimous flomin'ation as candidate for Off ernor of Ohio, which - you gave me while I was yet. in the Confederate States. It was not mis placed ; it shall never be abused. But this is the last.of gil considerations in-times like these. I ask no personal sympathy for the personal wrong. No; -it is the cause of constitutional liberty and private right cruelly outraged be yond example .in a free country; by the Presi. dent and his servants, which gives public sig nificancy to the action of your cenveation.— Yours was, indeed, en act ofjustieeto a citizen who,- for his devotion to the rights of the States widths liberties.otthe people * , had been maid, for destroolion by the hand of, arbi trary, power. Bur it, was much more. It wat t s an, example of courage worthy of the heroic ages of the world; and it was a -spectacle and a rebuke to 'the usurping tyrants who, haying broken up the Union, would now strike down the Constitution, subvert your present govern ment, and establish a formal- and proclaimed despotism' in i a stead. YOti are the restorers and defenders of constitutional liberty, and by' that proud title . history will salute you. I congratulate you upon your nominations. They whom you have placed upen,the ticket with me are gentlemen of chardetei, integrity and tried fidelity to the Constitution, the Union, and to liberty. Their Moral and political courage—a quality always rare; and mow th e most valuable of public virtues—is beyond question. Every iway all these Trero nominations fit tobe made. And even jealousy, I am sure, will now be bushed, if I especially rejoice with you in the nomination of Mr. Pugh as your candidate for Lieutenant Governor and President of the Senate. A Seholar and a gen tleman, a soldier in a foreign was, and alwags a ratriot ; eminent as a lawyer, and distin guished as an orator and a statesman; I hail his acceptance as an omen' of the return of the better and more virtuous days of the re public. I indorse your noble platform—elegant in style. admirable la sentiment.' You present the Arne issue, and. commit yourself to the great mission just now of. the Democratic party—to t eitore and make sure 71118 T the rights and liberties declared yours your Constitutions. It is vain to invite the 'States and people of the South to return to a Union without a Constitution, and dishonored and polluted by repeated and most aggravated exaeleons of tyranic power. It is base in ~yOureelene, and treasonable to your posterity, to surrender these liberties and rights to the creatures whom your own breath created and can de stroy.. Shall there be free speech, a free press, peaceable assemblages of the people, and a free ballot any longer. in Ohio? Shall the people hereafter, as hitherto, have a right to discuss and Condemn the principles and policy of the . party—:the minbley—the men who, for the time, conduct the government—to demand of their public servants a reckoning of their stewardship, and 'to place other men and so other party in power at their supreme wiltand pleasure? Shall Order Thirty-eight or the Constitution be the; supreme law of the lentil And shall the citizen any more be arrested.by an armed soldiery st midnight, dragged from wile and child and home to a military prison ; thence to a mock military trial; thence con demned, and then banished as a felon for the PRICE TWO CENTS. exercise of big rights ? This is the issue, and nobly have lon met it. It is the very question of free, popular government itself. It is the whole question ; upon the one side liberty, on the other despotism. The . President,. as the recognized head of his party, accepts the issue. Whatever be wills, that is law. Constitutions, State and Federal, are nothing ; acts of legis lation nothing ; the judiciary lees than no thin. In time of war, there is but one - will supreme—his will; but one law—military ne cessity, and he the sole judge. Military orders supersede the Constitution, and military com missions usurp the place of the ordinary courts of jostle& ia the land. Nor are these mere idle:olomi. For two years and more, by arms. they have been enforced. It was the mission Of the weak but presumptuous Burnside—a name infamous forever in the ears of all lovers of constitutions' liberty—to try the experi ment in Ohio—aided by s judge whom I name not, becauSe he has brought foul dishonor upon the judiciary of my country. In your hands no*, men of Ohio, is: the final issue of the experiment. The party of the administration have accepted it. By . pledging support to the President, they have justified his outrages upon liberty and the Constitution ;' and who ever gives his vote to,the candidates of that party, commits himself to every act of violence and wrong on the part. of the administration which he upholds; and thus, by the laws of retaliation, - which is the law•of might, would forfeit his own right fo' liberty, personal and political, "whensoever other men and another party shall hold the power. Much more do' the candidates themselves. Suffer them not, 1 entreat yeti, to evade the issue ; and by the judgment of the people we will abide. • And now, finally ; let me ask, what is the pretext for all the monstrous acts and claims of arbitrary power which YOU have so nobly denounced? "Military necessity." Bat if, indeed, all. these be demanded by military ne cessity, then believe me, your liberties are gone,, and tyranny is perpetual. . For if this civil war is. to terminate only by the subjuge.- den or suhmission of the South to force and arms, the infant of to-day will not live to• see the end of it. No, in another way only can it be brought to a ChM. Traveling a thousand miles and more, through nearly one-linlf of the Confederate States, and sojourning for a time at widely different poifits, 'I met not one : man, woman or child who was-not resolved to perish, rather than yield to the prissure of arms even in the most desperate o,Xtremity. • And whatever may and must be the varying . fort One of the war, in' all Which recognize the hand of Providence pointing visib'y to the ultimate issue of this great trial of the States and people of America, they are better pre pared now every way to make good their in exorable purpose than at any period since 'the hoginolog of the struggle. These may indeed be unwelcome truths; but they are addressed' only to candid and honest men.: Ntither, how ever, let me add, did I meet 'any one, whatever his opinions or his station, political or private, who did 3 oot declare his readiness, when the war shall helve ceased and invading armies been with. drawn, to consider and discuss the question of re union. And who shall doubt the ietate of the argument ? I return, therefore, with my opinions and convictions as to war or peace, and my faith as to final results from sound policy and wise statesmanship, not only un changed, but confirmed and strengthened.— And may the God of Heaven'and earth so rule the hearts and minds of Americans everywhere, that with a Constitution maintained, a Union restored, and liberty henceforth made secure, a grander and nobler destiny shall yet be ours, than that even which blessed our fathers in the first two ages of the Itepolio. Messrs. Editors:—We e would like to know why the Governor of Pennsylvania has per mitted Couch, Dana and Smith, three New England Abolitionists, to command. the gallant sons of Pennsylvania, who have volunteered their services, to defend this State. We-would like -to know by whet right he has put_ the State troops under the command of officers of the Federal army. This inquiry becomes the more important in view of the fact, that Major General Robert Patterson, of Philadelpha, is now in commission-in this. State ;heis an ex perienced and able ecrameader, polossaing,tito highest order of military ability, as has hetat acknowledged on more -than. one occasion. by Lieut. General Scott, with whom he has king been associated in utilitavy life. • 2 - - it to tree that General Patterson is neither an Abolitionist nova Puritan, and never could be•used to aid in destroying the rights of the States, for the purpose of creating a 'constdi 'dated national government, 'with h monarchical principles, or for any ether purpose, and there fore Ite suppose be is noi , -called on to -take command' of the State troop . ' for the defence of Pennsylvania.. - • If Pennsylvania had no experienoed military men capable of commanding divisions and brigades, the Governor-might haie some ex cuse for going to Eogland States to find men to command the "ignorant . Dutch" of ptonsylvania; hut, if officers of the Federal army can ha spared to command ' our State troops, why did he not demand Pennsylvinians, who are without commands ; such as General M'Clellan, General 'Andrew Porter, Colonel -Charles F. llakff, Ste. Simply because these men are determined constitutional, law-abiding, and Union loving men, who cannot be trusted to carry out the hellish designs of Abolitionists and consolidation' conspirators. In order to avoid a serious conflict in thTs State, it is the imperative duty of governor Curtin to demand- of President Lincoln-the re vocation of Provost Marshal General Fry's or der, requiring - mew now voluntarily in the service of the State to be drafted; with orders to report themselves for duty in the Federal army, at the expiration of their ninety days service. The men in the military service of the State cannot be conscripted during their term of service. There are thousands of men in Pennsylvania clamorous for the invasion and conquest of other . States who have refused to defend their own State. If the Federal army needs recruits, let these men be conscripted. It is abelltd, be it is unjust, to conscript the men now serving this State. in order to save the eowardly..car cusses of the blood thirsty Abolitionists, iow at home, wits refused even to defecd - their 'own State in the hour of peril. It is the duty of Governor Cirtin to correct this matter, ere it be too'late. ' id folly to suppose that this otstrape can be perpetrated with impunity. • • • • Qn Past No. 1. - State Bights 0 aup, July 18th, C. L. VALLANWO HAM. For tho Patriot and Vaioa.

S. W. Craw ford. The Phi/0401 4 4a j' , ttiree of Monday thus !words the achievements of this justly famed division : "All will remember that the;battle, of Thurs day.. was mainly an overwhelming attack of the enemy on the left of our position, and that the brunt of the assault was borne for several hours by the Third corps, under Sickles, ;which was at last compelled to give Way. lie weetilitrallY overwhelmed.

Holding the ppettiOn they E4tl eo haedsoro4 'nu, they were Spin ordered forward. Two brigades of the rebel Gen. Hood were in possession of the bill called the 'Bound Top.' These, were charged, driven out and flanked, by which means the-trophies -of the day were augmented by a stand of colore r one 'l2-pounder cannon, three caissons, and one hundred prisoners. But more than that, the honor of the army was , saved by the recapture of more than six thouland stands of arms, which the eneily had taken the previous day, and by the restoration to our own lines and the care . of our'own surgeons of an immense number , of wounded- men. • “Tbe Reserves were fighting'on the soil• of their dear old State, and noble is were the deeds they had done before, they were eclipsed by their conduct at Gettysburg. Theirs Beryl; pea in that important battle, and the•fact that they saved the fortunes of the day at a most critical period of that bitttle should not be for a moment overlooked, nor should the names of Gin. Crawford, Col. M'Candless and Colonel Fisher be omitted from the front rank of the heroes of that memorable field.” • PROPHECY.—In 1836 Henry Clay made use of the following prophetic language : "Aboli tionism should no longer be regarded as an imaginary danger_ The Abolitionists,' let me suppose, succeed in their present aim of uni ting the inhabitants of the free States as one man against the inhabitants of the slave States, Union on one side will beget union on the other, and this process of reciprocal consolida tion will be attended with all the violent pre dices, embittered passions, sad implicit& ani mosities which ever degraded or deformed hu man nature. One section will stand in tneria cing and hostile array against the other. The collision of opirlian will be followed by the clash of arms. I will rot attempt to describe scenes which now happily lie concealed from our view. Abolitionists themselves would shrink back in dismay at the contemplation of desolated fields, oontlagrated cities, murdered inhabitants, and the overthrow of the fairest fabric of human sovernment that ever rose to animate the hopes of civilized men." Mr. Conway, the Abolition M. C. from Kan sas, has at last become conscience-stricken and, as Mr. Clay foretold, shrinks bark in, horfor and dismay -at the result of hie awful heresy. lie bewails it in the following manner': "Who can contemplate this terrible strife of ours with composure ?
