Every liberal minded citizen, who is under any circumstances captble V- t - , f • of rising above the dictation of a faction F,Of miserable place-hunters, should vote aor the people's ticket. If our people l' - dtave not had enough of party—if the ,Isst nine months', expezience has not ad ty momshed them of its dangerous, if not ';fatal tendencies, then observation, im• tf. tpression and memory are incapable of 4roducing the slightest patriotism, ts i- MAJOR RUSSELL ERRET • The Gazette, yesterday, contained an article in reference to Mr. Erret, from which we have been tempted to select the following pathetic paragraph: "Mr. Erret has forsaken bis business, A hie family and his name, with all the en. dearmente thereat, and has placed his Urns and talent at the disposal of his country. With other devoted and self-sacrificing countrymen, attached to the great South ; ern expedition, 1:0 is risking his life in the 't defence of his principles, and suffering all Ith,es- hazards and discomforts attending camp life in an enemy's country. During a perLd of four months he has paid but one brief visit,to his family, which was abruptly terminated by the commands of his superior, which he hastened to obey." Wein our simplicity thought that the people connected with the Gazette, were of r serionsand pious turn of mind; but the sly reseal who indited this paragraph is possessed of the humor of "Falstaff" or the " Mock Duke." Mark the ex pression, " self-sacrificing, " isn't that good? How many of us poor devils, now reduced from canvass-backed ducks to if crackers and cheese, would like to be sacrificed in the same may? We can an swer for an indefinite number. isk ing his life in the defence of his princi ples, " is another delicate touch of hu 114ziSmuiv. r which we could hug the author: who can he bet. We think that we see the sly rogue chuckling as lie reads the proof of these capital humor. The only thing troubling us, in this connection, is to devise how the deuce our amiablaandlandsorue friend Erret has stool Ji.tip sacrifice so long. 'I he people off Pittsburgh; the Senate of Penn- Aii mlvania, and finally the War Doparf ment—now under the control of a gen tleman who is always quick to reward r4at, modest merit and virtue—have all been imposing their burthens upon Mr. Er ret, until he, with propriety, may ex claim, "they buckle fortune upon my back, to bear its burthen whether I will or no." Poor man, we pity and would willingly relieve him, but knowing his "self-sacrificing" disposit ion, we fear that he will persist in making himself a• martyr to "his principles." Should he fall amid the carnage and the roar of battle, Gen, Cameron will be responsible for his early death. He had no business to move him from a little clerkship in to arm him the position ter—a snug little place, yield ing handsome percentage and having nothing to do. There are several other "self-sacri cing" patriots in our mind, whose ex ploits we cannot at present recall. They all deserve well of their c.,untry, howev er, and especially that good man, Alex ander Cummings, whose labors in dis• bursing. 4 tromillions of dollars" proved so fatal to his delicate nerves, as to com pel hina'to seek relief in a foreign clime. Poor Aleok; we know him well; no more exemplary man ever obtained a sutler ship in the•army. How often have we heard him •distant upon the enormity of rtuaningtxailroad cars upon the Sab bath; poyb . knatting against the indeli cacy Of prontlicyous sitting in Christian congregations. 'lt maY'be that we shall never again hear his pious admonitions; if fate,JitOtteytling in store for us so cruel as that, we can only take the pres ent occasion to say • farewell, and that the War, Department might " better spare n better man?' A CITIZEN Some smart fellow appears in theDis ixach of yesterday, over the signature of "Citizen," appended to a column of in flated nonsense, in which, we believe, he Aadertakes- show the propriety of ThttrapertiWFoting for the Republican candidates. This "Citizen" iti evidently no cm:n*la personage in his own esti mation; jfit .when he again resorts to anonymous scribbling, wv: would advise him to mask deeper, so as to conceal his ears. The following paragraph is a sam ple of this thick-headed "Citizen's" com munication "Ito farce which has been enacting for weeks has informed our whole community of ti* fraud titSempted to be passed upon them in the candidacy of Mr. Weaver: Demgc,rat.tl, certainly; nor to Union men eitktepbeeraniC . irher elms has filled anj eztt4 r ..- ileAr in city or county.— WitliteAMst - ':dnerp ,this garrulous person mmu 1 Ay..T . 04474 such hilly and impu. d en t falseheAf for iluiperaml of igen tiAilifel This "Citizen's" meek solicitude for the Democratic party - partakes of the pettifogger in connection with the block head. That party is not to be effected by the huocritical admonitions Abush . whackers,even when ingeniously offered, and we feel - quite sure that such flimsy falsehoods as those administered by "Citi zen" will not have the slightest effect upon any one capable of the least re : ection. The Democratic party of this county and city, with a magnanimous patriotism which this degenerate and renegade "Citizen" cannot comprehend, have re fused to enter into partizan conflicts, so long as our united energies are requiren to face rebellion. The scurvy and mous ing politicians; the ragged and damaged rascals of Republican caucuses, stepped in and prevented the masses of their party from joining us in this virtuous enterprise, One of this set—this "Citi zen," who dines and sups on the alnu3ot party, whose slipshod condition exhibits his frost bitten heels, attempts to play the mawworm on a small scale,and seems to have no ambiti.in higher than that of the political trickster—to publish anony_ mously what most men would be ashamed to write. To the personalities cf the article in question, we have no reply lo make, more than that such things will be per mitted to disgrace the profession of jour nalism, just so long as the morals of cer• Lain editors remain unimproved. 0111:10MW3113•1161 The leaders of the rebellion seem to have made large calculations upon the arrest of Mason and Slidell, by Captain Willcrs. They presumed that our gov ernment would sustain the arrest, and go to, war with treat Britain, rather than give'the rebel embasadors up. This, of (lonise, would have been an admiial•le piece of good luck for the Southern Confederacy, and hence their mortifica tion at the peaceful solution of the dill. ficulty. Among the papers which are particularly savage at the action of our government, in this particular, is the Richmond Dispatch. It will be seen from the following that it is quite dis• gusted with every one of a Yankee char acter, which means all who inhabit the free States including recent importations of Teutons and Hit.ernian.: "All Leg eha:l gape for tf.ts"—Slinkarpen r. "Among tee many striking p ,rtralt, which the great dramatist has drawn, there is none truer to nature than that of Ancient Pistol. His swagger, his bluster, his bold front, his cowardly heart, his rant, his fustian his strange oathel have in them something inimitably Iflicrous. His brag. gadocia and big talk impose for some time even on the men of such an army as that which Henry V. led into France, and which won for him the ever memorable field of Agincourt. At last, grown bold by long impunity, ho ventures too far and bis exposure is complete. A Welsh gen- tleman of dauntless courage, but odd du• ineanor, becomes the subject of his inso lence. He laughs at his broken English and derides his nation. The national plant —the leek—becomes the subject of his acniN rillous impertinence. He finds that he has, to use an American expression, waked up the wrong passenger. The gentleman is a man who does not understand jesting, specially at the expense of his country,— He puts up with the affront when first re ceived, because they are on the eve of a great battle ; but, the victory once won, his &et step :s to seek the 'aggress( r and call him to account. He finds Pistol, pre sents him with a leek (the national emblem which he had derided) and toils him he must swallow it. The Dully E m•ars and swaggers. The Welshman (I:ea neat]. r He is perfectly calm, but atni pres , teek and tells Pistol ho must s it,— Upon further refusal, he proceeds to h e w. him without mercy. This was Inure thar, mine Ancient had bargained for. Never, theleas, he at last gulped it down, protest ing with thundering oaths tbat hereafter his persecutor should be made to pay the penalty. Ho is treated with contem' t, sneaks off, and we hear of him no more "If the Yankee government have not enacted the part of 'Ancient Pistol' to the very life,in their ern broilinont with the En glish government, then there is no suen thing as imitation, and parallel cases con nut exist in nature. When the piratical onslaught was first made upon the Brit.sh vessel the yell of exultation which cruse ; Yar.keedom resounded throughout :he world. Vast meetings assembled to testily their admiration of the deed. City coun cils voted it unrivalled in daring and sa gacity since the days of Bayard. The press rung with applause. The Secretary of State hastened with his mead of praise.— The Secretary of the Navy was not slow in approving tee deed. Congress hailed the rising glory of the new hero, and testi fied their approbation of his exploit with out a dissenting voice. Tho city of B , s ton dined him, and wined him and listened to his narrative, and made the welkin ring with its applause. The newspaper vowed that they would see every American ship burned, and ,very Yankee town and city uprooted from the very foundation, before they w.,uld shrink from the side of Wilkes. They were determined to bbek h.m at all hazards and to the last extremity. Never was there such defiances as they hurled at England Never was there CO much inso. lence uttered upon any ono occesion. Never were such threats heard before since the creation of the world. The Herald led the way in these demonstrations. it was going to raise a million of men to overrun and devour Canada. It was going to fit out six thousand privateers to cruise against English merchandise. It was going to confiscate nine hundred millions of Eng, li-h property. It would not let England have a pound of cotton. It would get saitpetre from the Mammoth Cave. It Eng land dared to demand redress, i was de , termined to raise nn insurrection in Ire land " The Moral Support of France We direct the attention of the reader to an article in this morning's Post, cop ied from the "Opinion Nationale," of Paris, a paper partly oweed by Prince Napo leon, and supposed to speak his senti ments, whenever he chooses to make them public. The article as it original ly appeared, was signed by the respon sible editor. M. Gueroult, and there is tile doubt but that it reflects the sen timent not only of the French Emperor, but of a majority of the French people. It seemed very strange that the French Emperor, who has so far kept England in the rear of every joint enterprise in which they have been engaged, should now, and without the slightest provoca tion, play second in an assault upon the ' States. The article we publish to day • is intended to allay all expressions of sytekathy for the coun try, by the Natio ns nd consequent I repudiation of allianceitb ilh igland, I will be read with interest in t • country at this critical juncture gf affairs.

But suet/ aßituation was too simple, too rssi., n able to last. It 14 r pea'ed some days afterward, it returns to no from English journals, and the French journals, which receive or formerly d;cl re ceive confidences, affirm that France, without yet depart.ng frcm her neutrality, sustains England and gives her its "moral" support. The first result of that moral support wend be the recognition of the legitimacy of England's grief,.; the second, the recognition of the Southern States and the moral institution of slavery; tae third might Pot leaps ho to engage us actively in the quarrel sod to cause a rup: me between France cod the t'n ted Stores.

'Fhe Secretory of Mate, however, issues a certificate that Mr. Lewis is elected, and has duly filed his bond. lt appears that Mr. Lewis was nrt aware that the bond should have been filed before the Ist, and hence the technical mistake.
