The result oMhe Fall campaign will, we
hare the fullest, confidence, demonstrate
the-conservatism of Pennsylvania. We
say we'have confidence in this, for although
I the recent requisition for so lare a number
ol troops will, must lessen the strength of
j our -vote considerably, we vhall yet, we
j think, be enabled to carry the State by a
j handsome majority. We ca'culate upon
this lorwe are ol opinion' that the people
nave had iheir fill of RepuHicau rule, and
will idiake it off when next the "pportunity
ia afforded them.
The State ticket, and the county tickets
so hr as they- hare yet been nominated
are all of the strong description best calcn
latel to bring out the'vote, and it will be,
comparatively, itn easy work to conduct the
campaign. The cry of disloyalty, against
Democrats we conceive to be effectually
played out. The people, who aie sufferinc
from the continuance of thi war, are desir
ous of au honorable peace that will restore
ti:e Union and preserve the Consti'ution
emperiiled by treason, and -will see in the
support of Democratic candidates the best,
we may say the only mode ol directly ac-
i'comp'iishing their desirable result. We de
sire only a fair expression of the public
will ami judgment, which we are sure will
be an emphatic endorsement of our policy
and platform.
We commend the fol.owing item from
he Carlisle rounfro the brave and mag
iiauimotis Hepublican editors a tut others.
who delight in tie thread-bare hobby ot
branding Democrats with the stigma ot
sympathy for Secession, fitc. It shows how
much truth there is in their talk.
"Among the members T 'Captain Porter's
company, which left here on Samrda last,
went five of the name ol Smi h. all broiliers,
and sou oi our respected townsman, David
Siniin, Esq. Their names respectively are.
George S., Charles A , Theodore U., William
H.at.d Jame A. Smi'h. Those youn sol
diers a-e nil DEMOCRATS, and sons rj a
good Democratic lire.'
We would also remind them of the fact
that Capt. Myers' company, that went from
here into three months' service, was consti
tutedofwsr ihret-fmrlkt Democrat-. VVe
are also told that one o! the fooT companies
mustered ino ttie service from this county
tas1 week, contains more than eighty Demo
crats, and it is supposed that co isiderably
over the half of the -entire volunteer force
are Democrats. How any one can have
the audacity to call the Democratic party
dMoya. in the face of all these facts, we
leave the reader to judge.
How much better it would be lor the
country il these loud talkers would imitate
the example set them by patriotic Demo
crats, than to idle away their lime in trying
to create dis.-ensious and strife among their
fellow-citizens. They are mora in. their
elements however, when traducing the tru
ly loyal partj of the country not even ex
cepting such brave and gallant soldiers as
Gen. McClellan. It is too ridiculous and
disgusting for any man of common sense to
ii-ten to ihe criticisms of these ninety ham
mers oo the street corners when discussing
the character and qualifications of snch men
as Gen. McClellan, whose only sin is lhat
ot being a Democrat, and for which alone
they are ready to tramp him onder foot

Alarming The most alarming among
alljhe signs of the times is ihe disregard
shown by many of the leading political jour

da) lhat the Coni.iitu.ion may be invaded,
overstepped ad trampled upon. It is an
utter abandonment of national virtue when
men tell us that the Constitution is not to
stand in the way of the President, in the
management of public affairs. Such men
shoulJ remember lhat the Constitution is
above the President. No man swears al
legiance t the President, but all men owe

Mr. Editor : VVe have several Aboli
tionists in our comrhnnity, one of whom
not long siiice.' riear the town of Rohrsburg,
made not only a disunion but an inconsis
tent and contradictory speech. In the fore
part of which he claimed to be a constitu
tional Union man. by urging his hearers to
preserve ihe Constitution, by supporting
this Administration, aud befom he got
through his discourse, cut his own throat,
by declaring this war. would and should be
carrieJ.through at the setting aside ol any
thing that would come in ibe war. Mean
ing that if ihe Constitution stood in the
way of carrying on the war successfully it'
would be disregarded, and set aside. This
was part of the inconsistency of his speech.
What. preserve tiie Constitution by support
ing the Administration in all its acts. Let
ns see il by supporting this Administration
in all it does would be preserving.the Con
stitution. Does not the .platform upon
which Mr. Lim otn was elected deny the
slave holder the right of going into the Ter
ritories with his slaves under any circum
stances 1 II undoubtedly does. Is this not
sectional? Doe' the Constitution anywhere
deny them this right which they claim, no,
nowhere. But it says the powers not dele
gated to 'the United Slates' by'the Constitu
tion, nor prohibited to it by the states, ate
reserved to the 'states respectively or to the
people. Now since this right has not been
delegated by the states, which hold slaves
to the Federal, government, but reserved to
tham, they have" the ' right to go into the
Territories with their slaves and have the
same protection of the Federal Government
as other property receives, and when the
population is sufficient to form a Constitu
tion of its own, and be admitted into the
Union as a state, let the inhabitants by
their vote decide whether it shall or shall
not be admitted as a free or slave sta'e.
Bui in opposition to this I refer to the Pres.
idenl'a Inaugural addresa in which; he de
clared that the ' platform oiio'n "which he
had be'sri elected,. was a law unto ' him. by i
which he meant to be governed. Now
sinre ihe slave states have not delegated
this right to the united states, and since
there" has' t)ee1n a platfdrm'gotten np npo
which Mr. Lincoln was elected, and which
if carried in to practice, would deny the
slave holders the right of going into the
Territories with their slaves, it would be
unconstitutional to support the carrying out
of this platform. And since the Adminis
tration has deciared il to be a law onto him
it would be' unconstitutional to support him
in this respect. Yet this wide mouthed no
ted Abolitionist, who made the inconsist
ent speech, I have written about, exhorted
his congregation to preserve the constitution
by supporting these unconstitutional acts,
which to do would be a violation of ii.
And in Mr. Lincoln's second address he de
clared that this was a'people's contest, and
il was lor the purpose of "lifting ihe artifi
cial weights'' from all shoulders and pla
cing ihem'on an equal footing. Now what
did he mean if the inference be not true,
lhat he meant to free the negroes from bon
dage, and place them on an equality with
the white? This is the only . reasonable
inference can be drawn Irom such langoage.
He likewise said in his Inaugural address I
that he did not intend to in erfere with sla-

second address on his part or rather a con- '

P.esidenl's inaugural which savsthat he did

not mean to interfere wh slavery where it ;
then exited proves to me that he intended J
j u ucin ifu
to keep ii out of the Territories or why
would he not have said something concern
ing it. Though these and many other
things have been done in violation of the
Constitution yet this Lagerhead, abont the
incousister.cy of whose speech I have writ-
ten persuaded his hearers lo support ihese
unconstitutional acts te preserve the Con-
sti'.uiion It may be his intellect is so very
short and dull that he cannot see that the
principles upon which he and the party 16
which he belongs are opposiie to the prin

As soon as 1 discovered lhat large lorce
of Ihe enemy was turning our right toward f
Manassas, and 'that The division I bad or-J
dered to take post there, iwo days belore
had not yet arrived from Alexandria. I im
mediately broke up my camps at Warren
ton Junction' and Warrenton, and marched
rapidly back in three columns.
I directed McDowell with his own and
SigePp corps, and. Reno's Division to March
upon GainesvilU by ihe Warrenton and
Alexandria pike ; Reno and one division of
Heintzleman io March on Greenwich, and
with Porter's corps and Hooker's division I
marched back to Manassas Jum iion. Mc
Dowell wa ordered to interpose between
the lorces of the enemy, which had passed
down to Manassas through Gainesville, ard
his main body, which was moving down
Irom White Plains through Thoronghfaie
. iuii was cornpieiei y accornpiisneu,

being driven back to the West side. The
u.:.B. :"r. . : . K" I
forces sent to Greenwich were designed to
support McDowell in case he met loo large
a lorce ol the enemy.
The division of Hooker, marching tow
ardtf Mana.tsas, came upon the enemy near
Kettle Run, on the afternoon of the 27th,
and after a sharp action routed them com
pletely, killing 300, and capturing their
cam pa aud bagae and muay iuds ofjded. Th fight has been goii.g on lor two I
arms.
This morning the command pushed rap
idly to Manassas Junction, which Jackson
had evacuated three hours in advance. He
retreated by way of Ceutreville, and took
the lurukipe towards Warrenton.
He was met when six miles west of Cen
treville by McDowell and Siiel.
Late this afternoon a severe 'fight took
place, which was terminated by the dark
ness The enemy was driven back at all points
and thus the affair rests.
Heintzleman's corps will move on him
at daylight, Irom Centreville, "and I do not
see how he is to escape without heavy loss.
We have captured a thousand prisoners,
many alms, and one piece of artillery.

Washington, Aug. 3110:55 a. m.
The enemy was heavily re-eutorced yes
terday, and attacked Gen Pope's Aimy Le
fore ihe arrival of Gens. Fraukliu and Sum
ner.
The attack was boldly met, and a severe
battie followed. The advantage on the
whole, was with the enemy, and Gen Pope
fell back to Ceutreville with his whole ar
ray, in good order.
He has been joined at Centreville by
Franklin, aud Surnner was on the march lo
him fast night. Hepccupies the strongest
position in the vicinity of Washington aud
i expected promptly to renew the conte.-t
and repeat the successes of Friday.
Every effort should be used to hasten the
forwarding of the new troops.

Thk telegraph here has been telling us
some precy tough stories about the Lite
Wiles and some of our most prominent
Generals. One dispatch says our loss in
the battle with Jackson's forces at Manasas
and Bull Run is 30,000, and thai of the reb
els heavier. Another tells us that General
McDowell is favoring the enemy ; another
that McClellan is censured for not assisting
Pope in a more substantial manner than he
did. Sti l another, that McClellan has been
arrested for treason! But in the course of
a few hours the last dispatch in relation to
mcl e an was contradicted, ana a insnatcn
,
received at the same me savinc that ihe I
- . .. . - .
Tribune office had been closed by order ol
the war Department. These are tough dis
patches to believe, although ir. tbe main
they may be correct. That there has been
, ,, . . , . . , i
a hard fought battle is no m.Make, and that ,
our loss is heavy is probably true; bid it is
not likely to be ?0.000, in killed and woun-
or three days, only oeing interrupted by
the darkness of nigh. The Rebels are
making a desperate shove for Washington.
They can't lake our Capital, nor we have
not yet taken theirs, but we are going to.
