FOR coaosta: WILLIAM ALEXANDER FOR ' , ERECTOR OF THE POOR ROBERT H. DAVIIi. The Last Speech of Stephen A. Douglas. In the speech made by Stephen A. Douglas at Chicago, May Ist., he used theta admirable and memorable words: "Whoever is not prepared to sacrifice party organizations and platforms on the altar of his country does not deserve the support and countenance of honest people. How are we to overcome partizan antipa thies in the minds of all parties so as to present a united front in support of ovr country? We must cease discussing party issues, make no illusions to old party tests, have no crionination and recriminations, indulge in no taunts one against the other, as to who has been the cause of these troubles. "When we shall have rescued the Gov. ernment and country from its perils, and seen its flag floating in triumph over every inch of American soil, it wilt then be time enough to inquire as to who and what has brought these troubles upon us. When we shall have a country in a Government for our children to live in peace and happiness, zt will be time for each of us to return to our party banners according to our own convictions of right and duty. Let him be marked as no true patriot who will not abandon all such issues, in times like this " "Ha who is not for his c , un try is against her. There is no neutral position to be oceppied. It is the duty of hll zealously to support the Government in all its efT•rts to bring this unhappy civil war to a speedy conclusion."—GEN. Cass. "Do not give up the Union. Preserve it in the name of the Fathers of the Revoq lution—preserve it for its great, elements ci good—proserve it in the sacred name of Liberty—preserve it for the faithful and devoted lovers of the Constitution in the rebellious States—tho , e who are persecu ted for its sup; oft, and are dying in its d.. fence. Rebellion can lay down her arms to Government—GDvernment cannot sur render to rebellion."—HoN. DA.N'L S. Dicru - Nsox, of New York. THE TICKE9 S READY The Union ticket is now ready for dis tribution, and electors of the sei , oral Wards, Boroughs and Townships of the county, are requested to send for a supply to the office of the Post. OUR CORRESPONDENTS We publish to day another well written letter from our Correspondent, lt. C. 1.1.-- This young gentleman is a Fon of Hannon, formerly a partner with George Park, in the drug business, and a brother in•law of Um. M. Faber, Esq , in whose family he has been reared. He is a mem ber of the Friend R:1166. He is a true sol dier and although scarcely twenty hone years of ago, will make his mark. What has become of "Cussewago ?" Has the Provost Marshal got him (Jr is he over-loaded with official duty ? Will some one of our correspondents in the Oil Region let us know the extent of damage there by the late flood. THE EOLDIERS' VOTE On Saturday the Chronic/e announced, apparently upon editorial authority, that Mr. William Bennett was m Washington to attend to the voting of the soldiers from this county. We are enabled to annUunee,in addition to this, that on Thursday, Sheriff Graham, and F. H. Collier, .ILiq , late District At. torney, started for Washington,with a dry goods box full of documents, in order to secure the votes of the volunteers for Mr Woods' succession to the Sheriffalty,accor :' ding to the programme of the Court House clique. We think our bravo volunteers are fully aware who have been their friends, and know that Mr. Rhodes has devoted much of his time, and expended large amounts of money for their comfort and that of their families. They will vote for their friends and to sustain the principles of the Union. THE COUNTRY PEOPLE There is little danger that tLe honest voters of the country will be disturbed by the misrepresentations of the Gazette. That paper fears that it will lose the control of the offices 'about tho Court House, and hence it prefers to support a straight parti zan to a National Union Ticket. It is working for itself and for the Court HOLM clique. The principle of sustainin g the govern pent, is totally overlooked by these hungry 'office seekers. All they want is to sustain themselves. But the people have deter . mined:that the coaling election shall break the sucicsion at the Court house, and that the public officers shall no longer be the - . subject of bargain and sale. THE Republican Conventions ref used to make a Union ticket, and then, to deceive the people, c. 5.11 their ticket "The Republican Union Ticket." Such flimsy devices deceive no one. ST. LOUIS GurnmaTe.--Seven gun boats of formidable character are being constructeeat St. Louis. They are to be mounted with nine large guns each, carrying balls nine inches in diameter. The boats are being built under the supervision of Capt. Edwards at a cost ..of $90,000 each, and are to be ready o forlervice by the 20th of °dotter ., THE WAR It seems as though we were to have no end of military misfortunes in this war. The experience of previous discs_ ters of a similar character certainly should have caused sufficient precautions to be taken to prevent their recurrence. Loyal regiments firing upon each - other with fatal effect is more dishearteiling than battles with the enemy. Vt here the fault lies it is not for us to say, I,ut there is-great fault somewhere. I time that some certain method of dis tinguishing friends from foes on the bat tle field should be designated. The news from Washington indicates that we are doubtless on the eve of great events. Even while we write a battle may be going on. No one can tell how soon the armies encamped in sight of each other on the Potomac may be en_ gaged in deadly conflict. On Friday night, for some cause not yet explained, the rebels withdrew from the advanced positions in the vicinity of the Capital, which they have occupied for several weeks, and on Saturday night our troops occupied the points thus v:l -catei. This movement may be aiirelu.ie to a general engagement, but whatever its object is, a fight or a feint, we hope our generals will prove more wary and skillful and our soldiers braver than their adversaries. Tho people of the loyal States luive every confidence in their power to sup press this insurrection, and it must be done by our brave soldiers or not at itii. They have confidence in those who ail minister their affairs. They have ceased to dictate to the President, the Cabinet or the commanding officers of the arms. They have thrown off old party preju dices and are united for the sake of the Union, and determined to sustain their government at all hazards and in any event. From Missouri the news is not cheer ing. It is believed that the rebels have a force of from forty thousand to fifi) thousand men at Lexington and are daily receiving reinforcement!. They are well armed and provisioned. General Fremont expects to move upon them towards the close of the week. The public will await the result witii fear and trembling. If another disaster occurs in Missouri sonteloiy must be held responsible for it. The news from Kentucky indicata , that the Union men are fully aroused and prepared for almost any contingency which may occur. The soldiers on the river border of the State are well armed and equipped, and it is hoped that they will prove more than a match to their enemies. Along the southern borders of the State the traitors lu - . ve hoe!) commit ting outrages in.i ; without number. The Union men ar', however. doing well, and the rebels will presently find enough to do to defend their own homes in Tennessee, to which they evi dently fear that the seatof war will soon be transferred. The extreme East and the extreme West are, however, now the points to which the most intense interest is di rected. If Fremont shall succeed in dislodging Price and gain a brilliant victory over the rebel forces in Missouri, and McClellan drives back their main army on the Potomac, the nation will be jubilant with gladness. It cannot be many days now before news of stirring events must come. God grant that vie. tory may perch upon our banners! TEE PITTRBURGH GAZETTE AIIJ I'''IHNEY'S PRESS. The 0, .-e'r'e has been in the habit of quoting For i.ver, the Press, against the Democracy e would now like to call the attention g i ? Se gentleman of many offices and larger expectancies• to the fol. lowing, which we clip from the favorite paper of the "old Gazette." Errett and his colaborers may learn a lesson from th, , staunch supporter of the Union movement throughout the State. The Democrats of this county deserve all praise for their manly bearing in supporting the National Administration and sinking politics in the elevation of good Union men to office, who will expose tricksters and corrupt officials, who have subsisted for years on the bounty of the tax-payers and not on honesty. Forney speaks as follows—and this time speaks correctly. We call the especial at, tention of the politicians who cater to the Gazette to ponder over it and be benefited by its teachings hereafter: "The Union of all loyal men in support of the Administration,the Government and the war, which has proved so effective and promises to terminate so successfully in the great Republican States of Ohio and New York, will extend to other quarters, not withstanding the efforts of the worshippers of mere party organizations. We perceive that in this State the Republicans and loyal Democrats of the counties of Delaware, Chester,Montg,omery, Lancaster, Lebanon, Allegheny, York and Franklin have come together on a single platform of devotion to the Administration and the war. It may not be out of place to remind the citizens of Philadelphia that in New York city, where the Democratic organization has been used so powerfully to damage the country, the Democrats and Republicans are combining for the purpose of nominating a single mu nicipal ticket against the sinister influence of Mozart and Tammany Halls." Another Privateer Destroyed Late intelligence from Fort Fidel states that another privateer the Judith, has recently been destroyed by an ex. , pedition fitted out from our fleet in that quarter. Finding it impossible to cut her out, on account of the protection afforded by the guns of the Pensa3ola Navy Yard, our brave tars set fire to and entirely destroyed her. Privateer ing is evidently not a remunerative business. It constantly exposes those engaged in it to mortifying and tragic disasters. lOWA. has now in the service nine regiments of infantry, including three that have left within a few days; and there are nearly ready two regiments of infantry and three of cavalry. When all have been put in the field, lowa will hove furnished some • fifteen .thousand- 1 men. The " High Tone" of Secesdou We copy the following from the Chicago Post.

There seems to be a sort cf elective affinity that draws the species toward , the thing.

It has become the fashion among a cer tain class of flunkies to speak contemptu ously of our Republican form of govern ment.

TIIE COST.—As for the cost of this war, it will doubtless be as large for the space it continues, as that of almost any war of modern times. But there is the very favorable peculiarity that the loans and expenditures are made within our own limits, and among our own people! We are not loaded with taxation that foreigners may profit. And the crip pling of industry is tar less than ac, companies domestic wars generally.— Business received at first a great shock, but it is gradually recovering, and will, in the end, be more healthful and vig orous than ever. THE resistant Treasurer at New York on Saturday received an order from Ohio for 8200,000 of demand reasury notes. This is said to be the first large amount that has been applied for, but various small sums of one to five thousand dollars have been paid out when asked for. At no time have the amounts presented for redemption exceeded the demand from new sources. These notes are probably employed simply as an exchange operation by some party who has that amount of gold which he wishes to place in Ohio at lit tle or no cost or risk. PRICE'S force on the mornir,:._: of the surrender at Lexington, was 31,000, but subsequently increased to 32,000, and men continued to join him from all quarters. The rebels have devasta, ted the whole country within a radius of twenty miles, seizing everything of any value, carrying off crops, produce, money, etc, The men were required to take an oath—that is, the form of administers ing an obligation of some kind was gone. through. The manner of it was. this: When the Brigade was drawn up in line before crossing the river, one of Price's officers rode up to the head of the c...lumn and read to company A the form of an oath not to bear arms against the state of Missouri or the rebel con federacy. "All you that take the oath take off your caps," he sai i, and with out waiting to see how•many caps were raised, rode on to the next company ex claiming, "You've heard the oath read, all you that take it remove your oaps." .4nd in this manner he went through with the companies. The soldiers of the Ti ish Brigade regarded it then, and now regard it as no obligation at all, binding upon their consciences or ac , tious. Many of them while the farce was enacting were heard to mutter in re 4 sponee to the rebel officer, "Ali, ta the devil! an' we don't swear any such The Batte — rie: oti •.— the Potomac The enemy are repow I to have planted several powerful batteries ou the shores of the Potomr,c. Some of them were probably originally erected to prevent the Union forces from land. ing at important points on the Virgin is shore, and others for aggressive pur poses. It is no doubt part of their plan to control and prevent the navigation of the river, so that if by any misfor tune to our arms direct communications between Washington and the North are cut off, they oan also render it difficult and dangerous to send succor from the sea to a beleaguered capital. The re cent attacks upon our ships have disk closed the exact location (previously concealed ) of several of these hostile works. It is quite possible that, sit.ce they have thus been unmasked, an at tempt will be made before many days to capture or destroy them. The Philadelphia Ledger raga there are, in that city, a great many unoccu pied houses, the consequence of which has been a very considerable reduction of rents—say from 20 tl 25 per cent. The same remark, says the New York Journal of Commerce, will hold eub.. stantially true in regard to New York city. In some wards the number of un ueenpie.l stores and dwellings would Liirolv fail to attraa attention, even from a superficial observer; and land -ILry commonly content them selves with nominal rent, or nothin , :, at all, nailer than lose an occupant who is likely to pay whenever business 're suute,i. hati..rle3 is L, Li, (.31 rebolA h••• ,11 ~.~ c ~:~tcd ..} , . lite Object of tic 3:tbvi hell -eat MIIIEM VariousTeel/tad ns arc rife as to the whereabouts of the rebel army, as no traces of them can be discovered in large force, occasional pickets of infantry and cavalry only being discernible at distant points, hovering as if fur die purpose of observation. The most probable the. ory is, that from what can be gathered, the rebels are making feints of retreat as they did previous to the battle of Bull Run, with the view of drawing our troops into ambuscades. This opinion is strengthened by the repetition of a conversation which a farmer residing in the neighborhood of Falls Church over heard the day before. The encampments of the rebels show that they at no time had over 10,000 men in front of Washington, andAt the points which they have just evacuated. -y Co , : in THE Bulletin says: Bon. George M. Stroud now stand.' before the people of Philadelphia as the candidate of three distinct organizations for one of the As sociate Judgeships of the district Court. The People's Party Convention yester day, in acting upon the withdraw] of Mr. Briggs, nominated Judge Stroud. The excellent judges now on the bench in our different courts, whose terms are soon to expire are thus all placed in nomination for ro'election and this without any reference to partisan poli tics. THE Philadelphia banks have resolv ed to take their proportion of the second fifty millions of the national loan.— They are unanimous in their opinion that the Secretary of the Treasury should put into circulation all the de mand notes that ho can get out. IT is the purpose of the Government to recall Gen. Sumner from California, with all the regular troops now in ser vice in that State, and to authorize the raising of a volunteer force of thirty thousand men in California, for the de fence of the frontier and operations in the adjoining Territories. THE village of Williamstown, Os wego county, N. Y., sent one volunteer to the war, and he having returned, preparations are to be made to honor him with a public reception. FIVE States will hold their anrual elections on Tuesday, the Bth of Octo ber—namely Pennsylvania, Ohio,lowa, Indiana and Minnesota.

Under the doltful caption of " Ingratitude" he laments that perverseness of spirit which, he thinks, induces me to support the Union Ticket, notwithstanding the alleged receipt by me of the large surn of .15,A00" from an office conferred by Republic.; n alone., I can readily comprehend how remarkable such a course of conduct appears to this hirsute philosopher of the Cameronian School—the receipt of the cash being gen erally deemed and taken by that class as an all sufficient reason for the abnegation of a principle or the support of measures the most mischievous. There are those, how ever, inexplicable as it may seem to this sciolist in politics, who value their country higher than party, and who are ready at an hour like the present to sacrifice some thing of partizan feeling and malignity to the demands of an unselfish patriotism If supporting a "Union Ticket makes. an "ingrate' of a Republican, then is the senior editor of the Casette the veriest in grate living, for he largely contributed through the columns of his paper to the growth and development of that very Union sentiment which he now vainly endeavcre to stifle. What can be thought by an enlightened community of the honesty or Inirness of an editor who, one sh,ri month ego. advocated a Union Ticket, , I;.fgested the matter in his paper and coo:I -ntended it in language like the following, who now has the effrontery to denounce publicly those who still hold the same sen timents? In its of September 3, 1801, say= the UaLthe in speaking of the ap proaching It-publican Convention: "WE SUGGEST, therefore, that the two Conventions shall, as soon as organized, and before anything i, done towards nom , inating candidates, appoint committees to determine whether the loyal democrats shell have a share of the races, and also to consult as to the proper iistribution of the cillces. If it is determined, as we presume it will be, that the loyal demo• crate shall have a share of the ticket, it will then be for those committees to ro commend to their respective conventions what , tlicea shall be assigned to domo• crate." The 'inc niter the (invention adjourned the (;ezrtte laments the result in this wise: "Contrary to the general expectation the Conventions refused to form a "Union" Ticket; WE THINK THIS WAS A MISTAKE." That it was a mistake is believed by many, who, true to their con victions of duty, will endeavor to rectify the error at tt.e ballot box. A word as to the Munchausen yarn abut that ".?;':, 510."

LIN W. RIi)DELL. The Fatal Mistake Near Fall's Church STATEMENTS OF PARTICIPANTS A number of the participants in the al , vanes on Falls Church were in Philadel• phis on Sunday evening. The Press says they give confused and contradictory state ments relative to the fatal mistake, The most reliable account wo derive from a captain's clerk, who left the advancing col. umn near Falls Church at nine o'clock on Sunday morning. Among the regiments that left the Chain Bridge, under Gen. Wm. K. Smith, were the following: California Regiment, Raz. ter's .Fro Zouaves, and Owen's Irish Regi ment, from Philadelphia; also. the Sixth Maine R°giment, Second and Third Ver. mont, Nineteenth Indiana, Thirty-third New York, tim Llen.lan Sharpshooters, (comprising two companies) at least two batteries of artillery, and a quantity of cavalry. Three companies of the California regi ment had been been thrown out as skir. mishers, two of which had returned to their column, reporting the road unobstructed. Supposing his column now united, General Smith ordered forward the Berdan Sharp• shooters, directing them to flre at any ap proaching body. Accordingly, when a third Company of the California skirmishers were about re. joining their regiment, the sharpshooters fired upon them, without effect. The skit, mishere at once replied and a panic ensued among trio riflemen, several of whom threw down their pieces, panic-stricken, and ran back upon the main body. The mistake was discovered in a few seconds and amica bly adjusted. When about to rejoin their column the skirmishers were. a second time, fired upon by parts of Col. Owen's Irish Regiment.— The fire was fatal ; and even after the skirmishers had made known their real character, some of Colonel Owen's men, highly excited, discharged their pieces at random. A. part of (;a f t. Mott's battery, hearing this firing ahead, was preparing to sweep the road with grape and canister. After a succession of frightful scenes and great confusion, order was restored, and Colonel Owen'a Regiment was ordered back, and, our informant states, the remainder of the column proceeded forward, and, as he thinks, occupied Falls Church. The distance from Chain Bridge, whence the column started at ten o'clock on Satur. day night, to Falls Church, is about six miles. The mistakes occurred about three. quarters of a mile from the latter place.— About fifteen thousand men took part in the advance and fifteen thousand were left to emard Chain Bridge. Neither Col. Owen nor Col. Baker was in the engagement, Col. Baker having been in the city some days, and Colonel Owen having arrived by the train last.evening. A body of rebel cavalry had charged upon our advance some time before the mistake occurred, and our men becoming, in con. sequence, excited, were eager for a melee, and willing to lire upon anything that might appear. lie believes that two of Col. Owen's men were killed, one of Bax ter's Fire Zouaves, three of the California Regiment, three of Mott's battery, and two of the First Pennsylvania Dragoons.— Not more than twelve in all, be believes, were killed, and atput . Ihirt7 7/68 wounded, , ~~~ `~ r~=- For The Poet. If there is one kind of treason worse than another, that of General Spnen Bolivar Buckner, of Kentucky,deserves to have the maxi*** epi th et.,;kHe deserves to rank withirOggs and Floyd He has had important' and sp6eial duties entrusted to hinri'ss Ooyaleiti zen of the United Stites, and at the very time he pretended to be executing those trusts, be held a commission un% der the rebel government. He began his treason by a wilful lie concerning General McClellan, three months ago. He afterwards went-to Washingtorg where, while he pretended to he he was really acting the spy. ..As com mander of the KentuckY'Stete Guard,' it was his duty to obertheinStntetionif of the State Legislature. But,instetel of doing this, he pilled • coMmission as Brigadier General of the rebel'-gov ernment out of his pocket, and proclaim ed war against Kentucky and the Union. He then proceeded to burn bridges and destroy dams along the railroads and rivers, and called fur troops from Teri nessee to invade the State homes sworn to defend. In the course of the, sups presaion of this rebellion, we trust that there will be a rope of good Kentucky hemp prepared for the neck of Buck , ner. In accordance with a recent order Issued by General McClellan, the articles of war are to be read to the troops under hiscom mand every Sunday morning. This meas. ure has much to recommend it, and will have considerable moral effect upon both officers and men, by constantly reminding them of their duties as soldiers and the penalties which will attend any breach of military law, In - the' absence of this regue lation many mieht have remained in ignoe ranee of the articles of war, beyond an idea of their general bearing. Now, hovi• ever, there is no excuse for those even of the dullest comprehension not knowing - tins difference between right and wrong. More. over, the reading of the articles will act as a salutary caution, and be much more impressive than merely posting up printed copies of the same. What now suggests itself is the issue of a similar order in all the otner federal camps throughout the country. What is advan tageous on the b-..nks of the Potomac will be equally so in Maryland, Missouri, East., ern Virginia and wherever else our troops may be encamped. The number of cases of insubordination in the army are thus likely to be dituinished by the knowledge and fear of speedy punishment. The or-, der against picket shooting has already . ' been productive of good effects in Virgin. is in putting a stop to a wanton and useless system of murder; and the more the tone of the army is elevated by such measures as the two referred to the 'better for the cause of humanity, ourselves and the re public.
