Democratic Ticket.
The cntiro Democratic Ticket has been
printed and is therefore ready for distri
bution at the office of the " Columbia
Democrat." Our friends in the different
townships of tho County, will please call
and get their portion.
Every man who likes such a govern
ment as we havo had for tho last few years
higher law, lower law, military law, no
law arrest without information, imprison
ment without crime, trial without law
who prefer the will of some Provost Mar
shall, to the writton law will vote for
Andrew G. Curtin. ,
Those who prefer to bo governed by
law, and to havo tho full benefit of their
constitutional rights, will vote for George
W. Woodward.
Our Democratio exchanges bring us
the most cheering news from all parts of
the State. The Democracy of Pennsyl
vania were never more completely aroused
than at this time. They see the impend-
ing peril that hangs over our beloved j
Commonwealth, and they are determined
to avert it by electing Georgo W. Wood
ward Governor. And this will bo done
so sure as the clcotion day comes, unless
prevented by the interposition of an armed
aoldiery at the polls : and should any man
or set of men attempt to thwart the wishes
of tho peoplo in this way, woo be to them.
Let them lake warning in time.
Democratic Meetings.
A Democratio Mass Meeting will be
held at Jcrscytown, Columbia county, Pa.,
on Thursday, October 8th, 1803. Tho
following gentlemen havo consented to ad
dress the Demooraoy on tho occasion :
Joseph O. BucnEn, Esq., of Lowisburg,
Col. Wm. IIrindle, of Lycoming county,
and. Hon. M. E. Jackson, of Columbia.
A. Democratio Meeting, will also be
held near John Loggot's Hotel, in Scrcno,
this county,, on Tuesday next, tho 20th
inst., at ono o'olock, in tho afternoon.
E. II. Little, Esq , and others will ad
dress the meeting.
Rich.
One of the lucky individuals upon whom
Father Abraham relies to put down this
foul rebellion, came to Bloomsburg on Sat
urday last, shortly after Dr. John arrived
with the list of eonsoripts. He was greatly
dismayed upon learning that among them
wero some of the subscribers to tho Jlepub
lican. He had been induced to believe
that if his name was on the Dr.'a books, it
would bo kept off of the enrolier's. But
alasl poor Yorick he was drafted. He
left, a sadder and a wiser man, and he
sees a large rat in tbo Treasury chest.
Pee John in speaking of the draft,
ays : ''When they come to' the aeoond
class wo shall expect to-be honored,"
Suppose be is drafted, will he go ? No,
not a bit of it. Ho will get exempted on
iome plea, timilar to Billy Button of
Iks TuBkbsanook Jiepubtican.
Dr. John llko other republican editors
is engaged in tho dirty business of publish
ing fraudulent extracts from Judgo Wood
ward s great speech at tho Union Mooting
at Philadelphia on the 13th of Dee. 1800.
Two precious gems of fraud appear in his
last issue, first that ho should havo said,
Lot tho South go peaceably and also,
that tho time must oorao when slavo hold
ers may fall back on their natural rights
and employ in defense of their slavo pro
perty any moans of protection thoy pos
scss or can command.
Ho said neither of these things, in tho
senso in which tbey arc represented.
Tho ontiro ppeeoh was published soino
time since in our columns and will speak
for itself. I
As to the first passago which tho Rc-
puUican pretends to quote, instead of.
saying 'Met tho South go peaceably i" '
ho said nothing of tbo kind ; but ho did
Bay (lWe hear it said let South Carolina
go out of tho Union peaoeably. I say let i
her go poacoably if she go at all ; but tehy t
should South Carolina be driven out of the
Union by an itrepressible conflict about
slavery," tj-c.
As to tho socond extract, tho scoundrel
who protended to copy it, not only picks
his words out of the speech without thoir
context, but mutilates tho very language
pretended to be taken. Tho Judgo was
speaking of the irrepressiblo conflict doo-
trine of Lincoln and Seward, and Baid
that it appeared to him, ''that there must
bo a time, in the progress of this conflict,)
if it be xndeed irrepressible, when slave-1
holders may lawfully fallback on their
natural rights." &c, Tho words in italks .
are suppressed, although indispensable to
convey the speaker's meaning. Ho wsb
denouncing tho irrepressiblo conflict doc -
trine, and showing its logical eonscquonccs
in both these passages. And the attempt
is now made to torture his language into J
a sonso never intended. He denied the
whole dootrino of an irrcprcssiblo"conflict)
opposed raisinrr issues and fostcrinc ideas,
which should drive any state out of the
Union, and urged tho observance on all
sides of constitutional and legal obliea-,
Hons.
Let any honest man compare the pas-
sages as quoted &n& as spoken -, and then
make up ins mind as to Uio character ot
me mail WUO COUIO. BO narOlO tllOlll. Ut .
what is he guilty ?
"Political Degeneracy."
The Pittsburgh Gazette, which is tho
organ of the Abolition party in Western
Pennsylvania, in a series of articles, la
ments what it calls the "Political Degen
eracy" of the times,
Tho Gazette is a living example of what
it weeps over,
Previous to tho nominations by tho late
Abolition State Convention, this same Gn-
zette charged Governor Curtin with crimes
that honest men would shudder at.
It Baid :
"We felt assured that ho could not bo
elected. We knew that he ought not. It
nccomes ouruuty, mereiore, to sound tne
aiarm, ana enaeavor- to save iuo nary, it
nossible
"Wo have endeavored to show thai l.
imposed upon the soldiers, by farmiiic
them out to his friends, and tLcn denying
that he had employed them.
"Wo have exhibited the record to estab-
i. ., ....1.1 .... i

robbed the 'lroasury of many millions of
money-that as the condition for his ap-1
proval, he had taken an agreement for tho ,
Stalo, whioh ho abstracted, and secretly
surrendered to the parties who had given
itand that when interrogated by tho
Legislature, lie confessed tbo fact, and
offered an apology, a reason which is
shown to have been untrue.1'
In this extract from, the Gazelle, which
we may copy without endorsing in its full
and malignant extent, Govornor Curtin is
charged with
ul. Imposing upon the soldiers, and
farming them out to his friends, and then
denying that he employed them."
The above chargo includes a gross out
rage upon the men who havo risked their
lives for their country, and the criuio of
falsehood.
"2. Approving a bill acknowledged by
him f Gov. Curtin) to bo wrong, which
robbed tho Treasury of many millione of
monoy, and when interrogated by tho Leg
islature acknoidedged tlie fact and offering
as an apology a reuson which is shown to
Iiave been untrue."
This chargo includes square stealing
and lying.
Tho Abolition State Convention, in
spite of the Gazette's developments and
warnings, nominated Governor Curtin for
anothor term.
A Falsehood.
The Republican of last week, says, thai
Hoister Clymer, Senator from Berks, said
recently in a speech at Somerset ; that
I'lf Woodward and Vallandigham were
elected, with Seymour and Parker, they
would unite in calling from the army, the
troops from their respective Slutes," &o,
Mr. Clymer passed through Bloomsburg
on Saturday last, and wo havo bis express
authority, to brand the above stalemont as
a falsehcod. It is a mean fabrication, and
in fact is absurd on its very face, For
the Governors of the States have no con
trol whatever over ttoops in tho United
States service.
Governor Woodward will have no de
sire to repeat the folly of the Massachus
etts Governor in 1612, who attempted that
course, in the war with Great Britian. -Try
and tell a mors plausible lie, Doctor.

Tho llarrisburg Patriot fy Union ol tho
23rd inst., says, the disastrous defeat of
Gen, Rosecrans is fully confirmed. Ho
has fallen back upon Chattanooga, after
sustaining a fearful loss in killed and
Vouudcd. Ho was overwhelmed by num
bors, and after us desperato a struggle as
it was possible for men to make, his shat
tered columns were forced to retreat.
Rosccrans, safe, us wo trust, in Cliattanoo-
go, may, when joined by llurnsido, bo 6oon
in a condition to ogam advance. But this
will not bring to life tho dead uselessly
slain, or restore tho limbs of tho maimed
At this time no moro terrible disaster could
havo befallen us and what makes it tho
moro to be regretted is tho fact that timely
reinforctmonls would havo piovented it.
This tho Administration nojeotcd. They
nav teen so busy for a month or two
paBt arranging the programme of political
oampaigns in tho States, as to ncglcot nl-
together tho frequent wnrnings thoy havo
ua of tho danger threatening tho Army
' "'o Cumberland. Altogether moro in
tent on conquering tho Domocrats of New
York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, than tho
rebel army of Bragg, thoy havo neglected
to reinforc Rosecrans to tho extent they
should have dono to render success cer
tain, or even to guard against such disas
trous defeat as is now announced. They
need not allege that they could sparo no
troops that will not bo credited. Tho
fact is known that they sent forty or fifty
'thousand men from tho army of tho Poto
a to New York, whero thoy were not
"ceded, and that thoy havo now distribU'
ted in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, In
diana and Illinois thousands of troops who
aro useless whero they are stationed
among people quite as loyal, if not moro
so, than tho President himself but who
might havo been of great scrvico had thoy
beon sent in time to Gen. Rosccrans. Or,
would it not bavo bocn better to have sent
a division or two from Grant's army than
to havo reinforced Banks, at this particu
lar time, Tho three columns which re-
cently moved from Now Orleans on a se
crct expedition which tho latest accounts
inform us has to some extent proved a
failure would havo enabled Rosecrans to
defeat any force that could have been sent
against him, seouro Tennesseo, Alabama
and Georgia, and with his victorious legi
ons thunder in the Tnnr nf Hinlimnnrl.
President Lincoln, if ho were blessed
with any more brains than it takes to
make a fanatic, would havo learned ore
this that he is incompetent to manage sue
cessfully war and polities- at the same
time.
The Mountpleasant Meeting

J8SyTbo Republican of last week says :
"Fiftv deserters tier dav arc t,enfc to

Of course Billy, all that arc returned

did, but was less successful in it,
Wo cannot understand why so much
time and monoy is expended in arresting
and returning these copperhoads whom
you represent as disloyal, and so much in
favor of Jeff. Davis. Wo should think
that ono such real Loyal niggcrhead sneak
like you would bo worth a score of them.
A friend at our elbow suggests that you
are doing more, in your present situation,
to aid Jeff in his schemes of disunion,than
a Kogimcnt of such white livercd milksops
could iu his army. JS. B, Democrat.
The Wido Awakes, (Hopublicans or
Abolitionists) throughout tho country have
resolved that is a duty they owe to thoir
dear selves to remain at homo and fight
the ''Copperheads."

Tho Philadelphia Inquirer, says the

probably not fall short of 30,000.
Gnncral Burnsido docs not fcem to have

Northern Georgia, he captured Joncsboro
an iusignifiicant villiago in tho extreme
eastern portion of Tonncsscc, and moro
than two hundred miles distant from the
ground on which Rosenerans was fighting.
From tho Army of tho Potomao there
s very little of importance. Gcnoral Bu-
fords's Cavalry has been sent on a rccon-

Gen. Leo sent heavy reinforcements to

Glaneey Jones, Hon. William A, Porter
Hon. Henry Clay Dean, and other distin

Judgo Woodward being present, tho im
mense mass of people insisted on his ma
king a few remarks. The Judge ascen
ded the stand amid the most vociferous
cheering. Ho spoko as follows :
My fellow citizens It is with senti
ments of extreme satisfaction that I am
able to meet you in the county of Lancas
ter. I came here for the purposo of ex
changing salutations with you, but, gentle
man, it is understood that 1 am to go

which nominated mo at Harrisburg.
Never, sinco I havo held a-judicial com

by my vcncrablo friend whom you have
selected to preside on this occasion, have I
mado a political speech. I am ono of
those who think that the judicial office
should be held aloft above all partisan pas

But 1 am not unwilling to meet my fel-

to exchange trienuly salutations Willi them.
Nor will you lose anything by my leaving
political questions to bo discussed by the
able gentlemen, who will address you, for
they are more capablo to entertain and in

If I should bo elected your Governor, it
will becoage my duty to discuss these ques

Tho following opinion of Col Joseph Holt,

formation of nil concerned :
In tho enso of a drafted man who, having full,
cd to report, is nrro'stcd, nnd then claims to par
commutation or furnish a substltuto Opinion -
"If ho fails to report blmsotf, and is arrested as a
deserter, ho has still tho right to go befora (ho
Hoard of Enrollment, ami provo that 'ho is not
llublo to do military duty;' but If, on hearing Mi
claim to exemption, ho is held to bo liable, lio
cannot escape personal scrvico. Ho is, nlo, un.
dor circumstances, subject to bo prooccdod against
as a deserter." CHAS. M. MAN VILLI!,

up to between Jour and fine thousand persons!
The ladios, too, God bless them, lurried out
iu respectable number they mttnifoal their

lion. The meeting was held in a splendid

The organizalion being completed, ilio
meeting then came to order, alter which ilia
President introduced to the audience Col.
Victor E. Pioi.LKr, ol Bratlfuid, who hud
been invited and was present to address tin)
people. He mttdo them a good spunch,
dwelling principally upon the Slide Govern
ment, showing up much of the Abolition
candidate's political trickery and corrupt
doings, since in public life, nnd clearly es
tablishing tho tact that A. G. Curtin is total
ly unfit to govern the affairs of this great
Commonwealth. Mr. Piolet understands,
fully at well as "any other man" in il.o
Stale, how things have been managed un
der "handy Andy" at Harrisburg, and ho
has tho independence to tell the people
wherein this administration has swindled
the soldiers and plundered the Treasury -His
speech was well received, and will do
some good. It was just what the people
wanted to hear.
Alter Mr. Piollet finished his remarks,
Dsmdl Ermentrout, Esq., of Herks, was
i raroduced, who spoke over an hour to ihe
people, in a fervent and earnest manner ;
making himself perfectly "at hum" with
Iho audience and entirely muster of tho
issues of the campaign. Ho discussed tho
i actions of the Federal Admiuhlralion at
Washington, the present war policy, and
the hopes of a recont-trticlion of tho Union,
under tho present management of affairs.
The importance of electing a Governor this
Fall he deemed far greater than at any oth
er period since the formation of our Stato
Government. Wo need a man who will
look alter the interests of our own State,
and not neglect his dutv by becoming bo.
fogged and crazed with Abolitionism, as in
stilled into the minds of many mon by thoso
fanatics and political demagogues at Wash
ington. We want no man who will tody to
the authorities at Washington, but simply
do his duty to the Government, and stand
aloof from their political heresies. The
speakers were repeatedly cheered, and all
soemed pleased with Ihe addrossos, At the
closo of the speeches, several national air
were eung, when the meeting udjourned,
giving three cheers for the speakers, ami
threo cheers for Woodward, Lowrie and Civil
Liberty.
