Our County Ticket.
We congratulate the people of Dauphin
'county upon the excellence of the Democratic
ticket nominated by the County Convention on
Tuesday. It is seldom that a ticket so unex
ceptionable in all its parts is presented by any
party, especially in times when political feel
ings run high, as they now. We rejoice
for many reasons that the gentlemen selected
by the Convention ate, without en exception,
proper and competent men, but more •especi
ally because we are not without hope that the
ticket will be elected., in which .case ithe party
will be honored by their 'representatives and
the people benefited.
In supporting the Democratic nominees it
.is not necessary that we should make aeingle
remark in disparagement- of , the qualifications
or moral character of the , candidates put 'for
ward by the Abolition party. 'lt is snffisient
for our purpose that iheyose the candidates of
that party, friendly to the 'National and *tate
Administrations; supporters' of their arbitrary
and destructive oneasurea.; advocates of negro
emancipation, of confiscation, of the semen
sion of habeas qua at'the -will of the Pres
ident; and further that the contest between the
nominees of the Democratic party and them is
one in which the former are arrayed on the
side of the Constitution and , the . Union, of the
preservation of our republican institutions, of
personal freedom, and of the dominants of the
white race; to all of mirk+, in our; udgment,
and, to we believe, in the judgment of a major
ity of the people, thomendidates of the Aboli-,
tins party arsisppossd. The difference between
the Democratic party tend the party of Mr.
Lincoln is one of principle, and &reconciles
bk.; and, believing that the_great.oaaos of. the
people, indonered hyrreason, by love of free
eloin,by partisilityforraceia.nd by every temporal
interest, lean strongly 'to the'Deinocratic prin
ciple, we see no meatiest why, on this ground
alone, the Democratic ticket okonld not be
elected, even in Dauphin county, without
strongly preeoing theelaims of our candidates
for eapport upon their superior faeces for the
positions for whiok -they have been respec
tively nominated.
Mut if this should *hereafter be made a ,ques
teal, the Atelitionficsdersr% -their efforts
to elect the oandidatesef their party, we shall
died little difitoulty in -showing that in every :
essential qualification the nominees of the Dem,
eerstie party .excel their opponeats.
Would any man .efjetigment, net swayed by.
party4eelh3g, hesitate .:a moment .to give the.
preference to And 'over Alleman i ear ',Zeigler:
eeiergaiser, for the Assembly, itonilyqualidea-!'

ementin.y is to be carried beyond *mere cape-;.
if social poeitioa r Amoral-clatraeter, and,;
tat heease of Awl andAileman, mititary merit; •
are tote considered, why we see •equally-safer,
there. And so it is in respect to the .balaace;
.of the tickets—in the lusi, cceion. et our (mai
didates we elaint.on i parier-4, in every other re-;
erect, wept as to mere military eeroice in the
Gamma the candidates for the -sherieralty, our ;
candidates are at least ,the. el:pmts. at their op
peniente.
Thisibeing so, we itese , the decidedadvantage:
of principle. Our eandidateestand.upan a rook,'
the Abolition. candidates .npon. sand. On thei
Deneacentio side we voutehd rier the 4aeetite-:

administration of the government under the
Conetitution.and laws, notonteide of and above:
them -; fer.tie superietitymtike white Geer the
African rase, and for thedeminoncy of the for

thrown together as they are in the irnited• ,
States. Tim Abolitionists entestainantagortittin
sentiments and pursue a polisy , opposed to
these ideas.
WM*.
The Woo iecte bo decido4 ;at the ,polle,,ond
if we believe that the white men ,of !Dauphin
county are talnerts themselves, wocannot doubt
the successor the_Democratic ticket.
As yet we have no Senatorial ,eandidata—
when the conferees make a 'gemination, ace
shall have ;something to aay, inaddibion, °Rho
ticket as a whole.
Let every Democrat be active and.untiriegi
and we will have little to fear.

Extract from; the decision of Judge WOOD
-WARD sustaining the stay law passed by our
Legislature in favor of the soldier:
"Now, if a stay of execution for three years
mad not be tolerated in ordinary times, ,did not
these circumstances constitute an emergency 'that
.justified the pushing df legislation to the extrensect
linsit of the Constitution 7 No citizen could 4e
blamed for voluntaries'. ,& .was invoked to do -so
by appeals as strong as .his 'love of country. In
the nature of things there is nothing unreasonable
in exempting a soldier's property from execution

supranacy of the Constitution and the integrity of
the Union. And when he has not run before he
was sent, but has yielded himself .up to the call of
his count,g7, hie self-sacrificing paerktiern pleads,
trumpet-tongued, for all the indulgence from his
creditors which the Legislature have power to grant.
If the term of indulgence seem long in this instance,
it was net .larger then the lime ler whisk the Pre
sident and Congress demanded the 80idier . 8 ser

That 4 g Private Letter 99 from Luzerne.
Upon the authority, se we are told, of a
"private letter received in this city from Lit
zerne county," a dreadful assassination of a
"gentleman" of that county by an infuriated
"Copperhead" is announced.
We itelielfo_ the Mery tie told to be an atro•
done canard—in plain English, a wicked fah
rication. 'Such base falsehoods are the cbie
weapons upon which the Abolition liournals
appear to rely for 'agitating the public mind,
and withdrawing attention from the misdeeds
of their party. We 'believe nothing they assert,
unless accompanied by the proof,aud feel no
'hesitation in expressing the opinion that the
imerne story is an unmitigated fulfiehoOd.

The Income Tax for •1E662.
rFor wise purposes, no doubt, the persons
appointed by the Federal Administration to
assess and collect what is termed the "Income
Vox," seem . to have made up their minds to
take no steps in that direction until- after the
cieetion. Whatever their motive may be for
postponing the collection of this tax to a future
•+fiey,'We Certainly have no adequate motive for
refraining from calling the attention of the
people to the fact that the tax. is impending
.and will be collected as soon aspossible after
they haie deposited their 'ballets on the .18th
..of October. The tax which will beoollected
this year is that which is to be assessed on
ille incomes from all 801irtlee for the -year 1962,
and twill be by no means a light tax. After
the . gentlemen charged with the important'
duty of assessing this tax are ready to com
mence operations, there will be timed upon
4very.person whose income exceeds, or issup-•
~posed to exceed $6OO, a circular, of which, for
public information, we append a copy. It will
be seen that almost everything conceivable,
within the reach of human production, whether
of the head 'or hands, is taxed, and pretty well
taxed. Every citizen residing in the United
rStates who is in receipt of an income exceed.
leg $6OO, will be called upon for three.per
cent, on the excess, after .deducting "from the
gross amount returned, " suck items as are
..specified in the cireutar; and every citizen re
