Senator Pomeroy is one of Dr. John's
abolition pets and patriots. For the sake
of the nigger he wants Washington city
laid in ashes, and desires to sec McOlcllan
and his whole army of 70 or 80,000 all
sacrificed, and destroyed. If all that were
to happen, then Pomeroy thinks, with Gov.
Andrews of Massachusetts, the war will bo
for abolition.
Tho war, in their view, is useless, unless
it frees the nigger and rolls over tha North
1,000,000 of blacks. They regard tho
Constitution as behind the ago and want
no restoration of tho Union if Slavery is
to remain. They want a Government in
whioh thoro sjiall be no distinction of col

social and political equals ; or in tho ex

I It is natural enough that thoso in
sidious rebels in the loyal States, who do
not daro to attack the Union openly,
should seek to accomplish thoir purposo by
endeavoring to overthrow tho Union's
greatest friends and champions, It is re
corded that those who undertook to pull
down tho throno of Solomon first essayed
to remove and destroy tho lions that sup
ported it. Louisville Journal.

dor Stato men and the Domoorat3; and
tho course of tho abolitionists who are
constantly defaming the vonerable Critlon

Against tho protest of tho IJordcr State
men in Congress, tho abolitionists arc
urging the President on in confiscation and
emancipation schemes, to tho detriment of
tho Union cause and the assistance of tho
rebels : thus "endeavoring to overthrow

nomination and clectcon of Mr. Slcnkcr
breaks forth like a beacon light, giving
promise of bettor days and a return to the
good, old, honest, Democratic and lijdly
economical admiuistrativo system, that
marked tho period of tho lamented Shuuk.
We expect to hear tho plundering hounds
who havo fattned upon tho toil and bloody
sweat of the people, open in full cry upon
Isaac Slcnkcr his fearless manhood and
uullinching honesty arc a terror to all evil
doors and publio thieves, and whatever
influence can bo bought by ill-gotten gain,
or those oorrupt devices which the un
principled demagogues who aro selling
their couutry daily that they may thrive,
know so woll to coutiivo, we may expect
tc bo brought into full play against him.
Rutwo have an abiding confideuco in tho
people, and wo know that they will appre
ciate fully the mauy excellent qualities of
our candidate, and elect him. Where he
is, there can ho no stealing; he will cry
aloud and spare not, until ovcry vestige of
dishonesty and fraud, shoddy patriots and
blanket contractors, rotten beef aud raneid
hoik speculators, and all tho miscrablo,
venal, sycophantic traitors who hang like
leeches around tho Treasnry, are drivon
out as the thieves and money changers
wcro scourged out of tho Temple.

James P. Rarr, Esq , of Alleghany
county, tho uominco of the Democratic
Stato Convention for Surveyor General,
is and ha? been for many years tho able
editor of the Pittsburg Post. Ho is a gen
tleman of excellent character, and well
fitted for tho publio portion for which ho
has been named. Tho Democracy of
Western Pennsylvania never had a more
faithful advocate. For years, ho has bat
tled manfully against an opposition major
ity, aud in tho faco of tho repeated defeats
our noblo old party has sustained in that
portion of tho Stato, has never faltered,
or abated ono jot of his zeal in behalf of
tho true principles of the Conititution and
Union. Ho was the warm friend of Don"
las, in tho campaign of 1800; but, liko a
truo Democrat, supported tho Reading
Electoral Ticket as tho only way to pro
servo tho unity of tho party, and the only
hope of giving tho voto of Pennsylvania
to his favorito candidate. In Lis uomina.

G. (Jurtin, t."overnor of the said Com
monwealth. A PROCLAMATION.
To sustain tho Government in time of
! common peril by all his energies, his mean?
and his life, if need bo, is tho just duty of
every loyal citizen. The President of tl.o
United States has mado a requiiitiou on
Pennsylvania for twentytonc new regi.
ments and the regiments already in thj
field must bo recruited.
Enlistments veil bo mido for nine
mouths in tho new regiments, and for
twelve months in tho old. Tho existence
of the present emergency is well understood.
No patriot will pause now to investigate
its cause. Wo must look tp tho fir urc.
Everything that is dear to its is at stake.
Under theso circumstances I appeal with
confidence to tho ("iceman of Pannsylva
nia. You have to save your houses and
your liiesitlos, your own liberties and
of the whole country. I call on tho in
habitauccs of the counties, cities, bor
oughs and townships throughout our
hoarders to meet and take active measures
fur the immediate furnishing of the quota
ol the State.
Let those who cannot go themselves
oontributo to provide bounties equal, at
at least, to those offered by the adjoining
Slates. The Constitution prohibits me
from drawing money from the Treasury
without authority of law, and I will not
cast a doubt on tho patriotism of our cit
izens by assuming the neecsity of calling
the Legislature at this time. This is no
time to wait for legislative action and the
negotiation of loans. Delay might be
fatal,
To put down this Rebellion is the bus
iness of every man in Pennsylvania, and
her citizens will show on this occasion
that they do not wait for tho slow pro
cess ot legislation, and do not desiro to
throw on tho Treasury of tho Common
wealth a burden which they arc individ
ually ready to boar themselves.
