After all the deception and bad manage
ment practiced by the present party in pow
er, there are men who profess to be hone.t
in their political as Tell as religious views
that eontinne to sopport and uphold thai
party. It is astonishing to see it, when
people know they are supporting wicked
and bad rulers men who have employed the
better part of . their lives in devising and
maturing some plan by which the Union
might be destroyed I
. We notice several counties in this State
hare appointed Delegates to the Stale Con
vention with instructions to elect Delegates
to the National Convention who are in fa
vor of the nomination of Major-Gcneral
George B. McClellan for the Presidency.
The Delegates from this District will favor
the selection of McClkllan Delegates to
the National Convention. Col J. G. Freeze
has received the appointment as one of the
Representative Delegates from this District.
The other will come from Wyoming county.
The Senatorial Delegate has not yet been
named'. Some good man should be se
lected. Lieut Geo. W. Utt We had the pleas
ure, one day last week, ol taking by the
hand our young (riend, Lieut. Geo. W. Utt,
of Battery F, 112th Reg't., P. V., who er,-
lUted in the service over two years ago,
from Greenwood township, Columbia co.,
and who has been promoted to a Lieuten- '
ancy for more than sixteen months, for hia-
good qualities as a scholar, gentleman and
soldier. He is highly spoken of by his
comrades in the service, fie has with him,
in the same company, if we mistake not,
three brothers. Lieut. Utt is a promising
young man. Higher honors await bicn.
Our best wishes are with him, as well as
his cormades iu arms !
Columbia County. This county, "Cop
perhead:' as it is styled, by the Republican
press, is doing as much, it not more, than
any other county iu the State, towards fll
ing her quota in the coming draft. The
townships ol Bloom, Bor. Berwick, Hem
lock, Scott, Cetitre, Cattawissa, Montour,
Briarcreek, and other?, have already filled
their quotas, by raiding vo'un'eers. The
quota for this county is 438; out of this
number 126 have been raised, and sent to
the proper rendezvous. This is not the en
lire number enlisted by any means, but
simply those who have been sent forward
to do service. We notice that the time for
volunteering has been extended to the 1st
of April. There will in consequence be no
drait on the 10. h ol March.
The Democratic State Convention, will be
held on the 24th inst. Delegates to the Con
vention are being chosen by the different
conuties. This body will comprise some
of our very best men. It is of no little im
portance that good end sound men be select-
! ed a Delegates to the next National Con
vention. The very best Democrats, men
of back-bone and nerve, and none of your
policy men, should be selected to represent
the Democratic party in that Convention
The Staunch Democracy will have all this
difficulty to adjust. The Abolition party
are not competant to the task which is be
coming more and roorer evident.
Hon. David B. Montgomery, Stale Sena
tor from this Ditrict, has our renewed

honest record for himself is the Senate, one
that I is constituents may feel proud of
Since the vacancy caused by the absenre
of Major While has been filled tj the elec
tion of Dr. St. Clair, in the Indiana and
Armstrong District, we may look for a
speedy organization of the Senate, in th
election of an Abolition Speaker Whoever
is elected, he will be obliged to Tote for
himself, unless there is not a full atten
dance, which will not be likely to happen.
There are doubts about the resignation of
White being genuine, in case it is not, the
election of St. Clair is illegal. Still there
is another question in tbe case, which U,
bad Mr. Penny, the old Speaker, a legal,
constitutional right, to order a new election
even were there no dispute as to the genu
inecet-s of the resignation ? We will see.
Time will make aright all things.
The Loyal Leaguers, and destroyers of
onr country, oi this place, are in favor of the
re-nominalion of the Old Rail Splitter, Mr.
Abraham Lincoln. They don't seem to fall
in with their much loved newspaperman
and fanatic, Horace Greeley, of the Tnbune
This over-wise and -shrewd man of the
Abolition party seems to bave no sym
pathy for Mr. Lincoln. He suggests the
nomination of several other gentlemen in
preference to Lincoln, intimating that the
present incumbent has done nothing txfat
ordinary which should entitle him to a re
no ruination. He. Liucoln, has done much
to dissolve the Union, traly. When he
took the Chair there were some Union men
in the Sooth ; at least so said his first mes
sage ; but how is it now 1 How has it been
ever since the issaiog of the emancipation
proclamation, and enforcing of the confisca
tion act i Did that large Union element in
the Soatb, so much talked of by tbe Aboli
tionists of the North, remain ! No ! not a
bitofiu Lincoln succeeded in driving it
all into the Southern Confederacy, and this
was surely something extraordinary, for pt
ery President could not have accomplished
so much ia eo short a time. We fear the
breach in this Union i a little too wide for
Ah Lincoln to brinsr toaether. ' It will be
a job lor the truly Union men of tbe country
to repair, and those men are to be f juad in
the Detnocrauie party. ; ; :

Boston, Masri. where the enterprise was
first projected.
Each of the One Dollar Ticket is good
for Four Admissions to the Mammoth
MIRROR OF THE REBELLION,
at 585 Broadway, New York City, or
wherever else exhibited.
One half of the profits of the entire sale
will be exclusively devoted and donated
to the above named patriotic object.
According to the original advertised
plan, a Ma- Meeting of the ticket hold
ers was held in Fun,eoil Hall, Boston, on
Nov., 4th, and an adjourned meeting at
ihe same place on Dou., 16ih. The fol
lowing named gentlemen were elected as
a Board of Trustees, to receive the funds
which may accrue Irom the novel enter

Making the proposition in good failh,
and ready to devote his whole energies to

Embroidering, Cording, and so forth. Ncj
other Family Sewing Machine has so modi
capacity lor a great variety of work. It will
sew ail kinds of clo h, and with all kinds of
thread. Great and recei.1 improvements
.nake our Family Sewing Machine moM
reliable, and most durable, and most cer

makes the iutsrlocked stitch, which is the
best stitch ktiown. Any one, even of the
most ordinary capacity,can see, at a glance
how to use the -letter A Family Sewing
