THE
GAZETTE AND THE UNION
TICKET.
The GAZETTE has at last narrowed
down its objections to the Union ticket
to a fear that its effect will be to give
the State Legislature to the Democrats.
Its editors are so strongly imbued with
partisanship that they do not seem able
to comprehend great issues The people
do not care whether their legislators are
all Republicans or all Democrats so that
they have the assurance that they are
all sound men for the Union and deter
mined to sustain the government in
putting down this rebellion. •
The GAZETTE was itself in favor of a
Union ticket until the influence of office
seekers had placed a straight Republican
ticket in the field. The leaders and
managers of the Republican party were
in favor of a Union ticket, and changed
their convention call in order that such
a ticket might be formed. The golden
opportunity was lost by the influence of
office seekers. The. delegates to the
Republican Conventions, almost to a
man, expressed themselves in favor of a
Union ticket. These Conventions ap
pointed a committee to apportion to
Democrats a portion of the offices. 'lbis
committee reported in favor of giving
the Prothonotary, Commissioner, Coro
ner, one member of the Legislature and
Director of the Poor. In the Judicial
Convention this measure was defeated
by a vote of sixtyseven to seventy-six.
In the Political Convention, the same
report was amended to give the Demo_
orate Treasurer, Commissioner, Coroner
and two members of the Legislature,and
also defeated, by a vote of sixty-four to
seventy-nine. These large votes in favor
- . of Union show the sentiments of the
delegates very plainly, and it was only
the personal influence of candidates and
not the real opinion of the delegates
which defeated the measure. But it was
defeated, and the people felt that the
moral effect of a purely partizan, nomi
nation woultrbe bad. A Union Conven
tion, upon a fair and equitable basis, was
called, and nominated a ticket giving to
to the Democrats precisely the same
number of offices which the Republican
Conventions had originally intended to
do, and would have done but for the
office-seeking influences to which we
have alluded. Now, what the Gazwrrs
asks is precisely this : it is that the peo
ple should bow down to the behests of
the offiitufeeekers and forego the glorious
opportunity which they now have of
endorsing by a popular vote the Admin
istration in its 'conduct of this war.—
Offioneeekers are pitted against the
Union, and the GAZETTE enters the arena
for the office-seekers.
The character of the men upon the'
Union ticket the GAZETTE cannot object
to. They are good men and above re-
preach ; competent, each one of them,
for the positions to which the people
have called them. Six of them are upon
the regular Republican ticket, and
there is not one secessionist upon it, as the
Churn hea already charged there is
uroa its Own_ticket.
We•thini the time has come when
the people will not consent to sacrifice
a great principle for the gratification of
a few office-seeking politicians. Where
all are Union men, except, perhaps. the
Gezerres one secessionist, thekpeople
do look to the former partizan character
of the men. They do not think, with
the Gazsm, that a majority of Demo
crats in the Legislature, even if such a
thing were at all' probable, would be
we'd as an evidence
rather that ir*ould be regarded, Sooth

EMANCIPATION AND THE WAR.
We publish today a capital article
copied from the New York World, to
which we invite the especial consideration
of editors of the Gazette art/ all others who
would make this war a fight, and for the
preservation of the Union, but for the ab
olition of slavery. The writer treats the
question clearly and with• the soundest
judgment. The Administration takes the
true Union ground upon this matter, and
will not permit its action to be controlled
by the ultra abolition wrong of the Repub..
loan party.
THE MORAL EFFECT.
If the straight-out Republican ticket
should be elected in this county in Oc
tober, it would be in effect a declaration
that a majority of the electors have more
regard to the interests of party than of
country. There are no distinctive issues
of a political character - 16 be decided.—
All these are merged in the one great
question of shall the government, in its
present difficulties and perils be sus
tained, or shall the differenees'of parti
zanship make lukewarm a portion of the
people and estrange them from the gov ,
eminent.
Allegheny county should place herself
right upon the Union record, and we
have every reason to believe that she
will, by her vote on the second Tuesday
of October, show the country that she
has thrown off the shackles of party, and
is for the Union and for the government
and wlll sustain its every effort to put
dawn this rebellion.

The GAZETTE'S arguments against a
Union ticket are uphill work. The
people have decided for a Union ticket,
on principle, and they will have it. The
same arguments which the GAZETTE uses
against placing Democrats in positions,
as Union men, might with equal truth
be used against trusting any part cf the
fighting of this war in the hands of the
tens of thousands of Democrats who were
first to respond to the call of their coun
try when this rebellion broke out, and
have been ever since rushing to the
field.
The two hundred and thirty thousand
Democratic electors of this State are for
the Union, and in the field or the forum,
in the Legislature or any other office of
trust or responsibility, will maintain the
cause of their country. Why should the
editors of the GAZETTE desire to ostracise
them ? When the election comes it will
be found that the people of this county
will endorse the principle of Union by
a triumphant election of the Union
ticket.
JOSHUA RHODES, Esq.
This gentleman, who is the candidate for
Sheriff upon the Union ticket, has been,
from the first breaking out of the war, one
of the most effective and valuable friends
of tie soldier in this city. He has spent
his time, day and night, in providing for
them, and his purse has been always open.
He is one of the boat representative men of
the Union in this community. He is no
poll tician,and has been called by the people
themselves to the position he now occupies.
The volunteers of the army will not forget
Mr. Rhodes.
TO OUR SOLDIERS I PI THE FIELD.
Allegheny county has sent thousands
of her brave sons to the war in defence
of their government, They have given
their stout hearts and their strong hands
to the service of their country. Bnt the
fact that they are absent from their
homes does not deprive them of any of
their civil rights. In the elections which
are now about to take place, it is their
privilege to have their votes recorded,
and the laws of Pennsylvania have pro
lotted the manner in which this shall be
done. Of this privilege every Allegheny
county voter now in the army should
avail himself. The soldiers of our army
have shown their devotion to the cause
of the Union by devoting their lives to
its service. They will have at the elec
tion at an opportunity to endorse the ,
Union sentiment of their fellow-cal
z'ns at home, and to show their appre
elation of those who have been foremost
to aid them in preparing for the cam
paign, and who have been most liberal
in aiding those whom they have left be
hind them.
A great principlo is involved in the
corning election in Allegheny county.
There are two tickets in the field. One
is purely partizan, gott en up by the in
fluence of office•seeking politicians.—
' The other is a Union ticket, formed
without regard to previous party asso
ciations of the nominees, and has been
placed in the field by a spontaneous
movement of the people themselves.
This ticket may be found at the head
of this paper. Oar volunteers know the
men who compose it. They know that
the names there are, many of them,
those of gentleman who have been un
tiring in their efforts to aid the volun
teers in this war. No volunteer who
has left Allegheny county can forget the
kindness and noble generosity of such
men as Joshua .11hodes,Efq , Mr. Robt.
Finney, James Blacknore, and other
gentlemen whose names are upon the
Union ticket.
We call upon the volunteers from
Allegheny county, one and all, to vindi
cate the sincerity of their own patriot
ism and give a united, vote for the
ticket which their Union friends at
home have placed before them.
The Politicians are struggling to main
tain their power over the people, but
the people have resolved to throw it off.
Volunteers of Allegheny county, give us
your aid. Your friends expect you to
vote the Union ticket to a man.

who have heretofore expressed no de

which have from time to time engrossed
the public mind, but Whigs, Democrats,
Free-Soilers, Hunkers, Barnburners of
the most uncompromising stamp,closely
follow each other, and will be voted for
with equal heartiness and resolution.—
The masses are convinced that the old
party issues have no pertinence, the old
party watchwords no charm, in view of
the :terrible ordeal to which the Re-

important practical question is—" Does

Emancipation and the War.
In consequence of a natural but
wholly deceptive association of ideas,
there is a tendency in the public mind
to overrate the question which has
within the last few days been started
in connection with Gen. Fremont's proc
lamation. Because this war has arisen
out of differences between the two ace- •
[ions on the subject of slavery, it teems LETTER FROM COL, BLAIR.

But it is not so. It is both preposter
ous and pusillanimous, at this moment,
when we are gathering great armies and
preparing to deal a,deadly blot on the
very front of rebellion, to indulge in
misiriviugs of our ability to succeed by
mere fighting. We command the sea

wo have a powerful navy—they have
none, we can raise ten dollars to their
one, can manufacture ten rifled can

soldiers in the field to their one; and
yet, because they have four millions of
negro slaves, shall we admit that they
are likely to get the better of us in the
war, unless, we can knock thi3 great
prop of slavery from under them? If
we set eight millions of our people
against the eight million of their white
population and consider them an equal
match, -there will remain on our side
twelve millions of free whites to be pit
ted against four millions of enslaved
and, for the most part, non-combatant
blacks; and some among us seem Main

led to doubt whether we are not over
' matched unless we can set these blacks
' free. We may have been a little slow
in our preparations; the desperation of
the rebels may have enabled them to
get a little the start of us, but it is as
certain as anything in the future that
we shall conquer them by the ordinary
means of military success.
The emancipation of a few hundred
or a few thousand slaves is going to
make no essential difference in the re
sult of this fall's campaign, and it is not
therefore, a question of sufficient im
portance to allow it to disturbithe unan
amity with which the people of the
loyal states are supporting President
Lincoln in the prosecution of the war,
even if the rebels should emancipate
their negroes themselves, and enlist all
the able.bodied males in their army, we
could still outnumber and beat them;
and surely they cannot be more fermi,
dable as unarmed slaves than they would
be as free men and soldiers. If we
ever put down the rebellion, it will be
by battles fairly won in hard-fought
fields. There is no such convenient
short-cut to victory as frightening the
rebels. by threats of emancipation.--
Until we can get at the negroes, or at
least send our proclamations to them,
threats of emancipation are idle and
futile. Let us not then faille quarrel
