CHARLES HOTEL, in the city of Pittsburgh, on SATURDAY, the 10th day of JULY, A, D., 1862, at 11 o’clock, a. m. A general attendance is requested. THOMAS DONNELLY, Chairman. Democratic State Ticket. AUDITOR GENERAL, ISAAC HI£NKER, ITnion County. SURVEYOR GENERAL, JAKES P« BARS, Allegheny County BLACK AGAINST WHITE LA BOR. Onr notice in Tuesday’s Post of the fact of Abolitionists in Ohio and Pennsylvania discharging white mechanics and labor ers, to make way for runaway negroes, whose labor was obtained at less than the usual rates, appears to have penetrated deeply into the rhinoceros hide of the Ga zette. That stolid concern is utterly in sensible to everything save Abolitionism and negro equality, or rather negra supe riority. Question the policy of these, and it becomes ns furious, although not so dan gerous as the “Hyrcan tiger.” Read the following specimen : “Of all the mean things which the mean est of mankind ever committed, that of the Pittsburgh Post , in mousing about to find where a black man has obtained em ployment, in a glue shop, or a black smith’s shop, or anywhere else, and hold ing him up as taking bread out of a white man’s mouth, takes the palm. If this is not crawling in the very filth of degrada tion, what is it ? It is well known that la bor is in great demand, that no white nian, or black man either, need go idle who is willing to work. A short time ago the Post told ns that we should have to snpport the slaves, that they were too lazy to work—now, as soon as one of them gets employment, the Democratic candidate for Surveyor General is at his heels, hold inghimup in his paper as a proper sub ject lor persecution ! Can negro-phobia go farther, nnlessto take the groundthataman with a black skin shall neither work nor •at?” In all this fuss and feather our negro-la bor champion has simply succeeded, for the thousandth time, in proving himself an We stated facts merely iu our former ■id didn’t go in search of them came to us. The Gazette -j" mat “labor is in great demand,’' and that “no one need go idle tvho is willing to work.’’ This is all very nice to read about; but how about working for abo lition prices ? This is the point we desire our blatherskite philanthropist to expa tiate upon. Our point was that abolition ists in Ohio and .Pennsylvania discharged white men from their service, because they could get runaway negro labor cheap er; some 6f these worked for twenty’five cents, but had the white laborers agreed to work for twelve cents, we presume that they would have been retained. In this way they could have obtained “plenty of la bor,” and at the same time ‘given the worldanotherillustration of Abolition sym pathy with white as well as black labor. - -The. Gazette’s statement that we desire to persecute the negro, is all a mistake, we might say falsehood. We have no desire to persecute him, or any one. Persecu tion is not our end. All we desire is, to keep this menial labor from.beggaring that of our own race, while it does itself no possible good. We are opposed to intro ducinglarge numbers of manumitted slaves' to jostle white labor for an existence; and we are desirous of saving the poverty stricken of all classes and conditions from being dependent upon the pulseless, can >ng, hypocritical philanthropy of A hoi tionists. These are some things whit the prospective Surveyor-General of our —State is in favor of; and with the assist- ance of the Democracy of Pennsylvania, backed by that of other- patriots who are disgusted with the constant barking of Abolition curs, we confidently expect to accomplish our patriotic undertaking. RUMOR OF CHANGES IN THE CABINET. We should judge, hy the commotion of the New York press and their Washington correspondents, that an early change in the cabinet is under consideration. The cutting up of Gen. McClellan’s command, six weeksago, woxadangerous experiment, resulting almost in the utter destruction of his comparatively little army. The New York World , a Republican pa per of great impartiality and ability,devotes alongarticle to the discussion of our late terrible engagements; in the course of its remarks it says: ilow, it is not worth while to analyze the causes of Secretary Stanton’s failure. To inquiiwhow much of it is due to politi cal ambition, how. much to personal jeal ousy, how much to the presence or the absence of tbis or that quality of head or heart, how muclTto the want of public ex perience, if not ungracious, is at least un necessary. It is no time now for such dis cussions.. This one thing is sufficient: Secretary Stanton has utterly lost the con fidence of the people. For that reason alone, if there were no other, it would: be ruinous to keep him in his place. The President has called for 300,000 more m f! l ' -,} t ' 3 our religious belief that that w.J"n uever be answered, unless the War Department is committed to different ■’- 0 obtain enlistments in anything T :!uirc<l > 'here must be peat popular enthusiasm: and such en thuinasm is ajn° r „. impossibility when such dissatisfaction Woods upon the heart. ; If the President seeks to ; fi T re '?f' li9h ccn bdence.

As soon as it gets through with this undertaking, we would suggest that it immediately devote iistruns cendent powers to the .settlement of the Mexican entanglement. We desire to see our neighbor engaged in an enterprise equal to its genius, its powers and its pro sumption.

Then in can triumphantly exclaim “my golden dream is accomplished,” and leave the cra zy world for the rest, of us to bustle, in. He can then put in the evening of his ehrquer ed life in some secluded spot, remote from city life; and, if he only goes far enough, where we will never again hear of him, lie may console himself with the pleasant re flection that we ail sympathize with him in his retirement. Our readers, we trust wiii pardon us for devoting so much spare In iln> crotches and nonsense of the Uazi-t/e, i>r.i here is another extract from it, to which we desire to direct attention, it say; : “The New York Wiiiid is fierce for ihe removal of Stanton, and recommends Con. Halleekto take his place! Would it not he well to turn out all the Republicans and put-in pro-slavery Democrats in their pla ces! it would he a very convenient way of setting the voice of the people aside, and of ending the war." We might, with propriety, reply to litis, by suggesting the necessity of Abolition- ists exclusively undertaking the prosecu- tion of the war. If it is to he carried on exclusively to suit the notions of Aboli tionists not in the field, we do not see why it should not he done hy them in the field. If a Democrat like Halloo!;, is mil fit to he trusted in the Cabinet, he is not safe at the head of an immense army, and the Gazette ought, tosee that he is immedi ately cashiered, if nothing hut Abolition isin, pure and .simple, is to he trusted in this contest for the nation's safety, let us have enough of it, hy all means, and noth ing else. Dismiss McClellan, and put Fre mont in his place : turn out Halleok, and give Hunter his department. Let the Government dismiss all the other oilicers and men in the army and the navv who are not for the schemes of Abolition politi cians, and then we will soon sec when the rebellion is likely to be put down. If this is a war merely for Abolitionism, Abo litionists ought to enlist in sufficient num bers to see it properly prosecuted. Let Wendell Phillips, and Sumner, and Gree ley raise their Abolition brigades, com posed of all colors, and let. the editors of the Gazette join with them, and perhaps they can succeed in speedily putting down the rebels, and that, too, upon genuine Abolition principles—the simple issuing of emancipation proclamations. Confederate Gratitude. Tennesseeans returned from the Cotton States complain of ingratitude in their Southern brethren. They say the name of their State is insulted, and her sons are charged with cowardice. When the re mains of Col. Robert Hatton were con veyed from the battle ground on which lie fell, to a hotel in Richmond, the P. P. Y'’s treated the dead. Tennesseean with cold neglect. Remembered only l.y a few friends trout his own State, his corpse was carried to Knoxville, and there interred.

Eany on I ttesday morning the enemv, Iront the position to which lie had been driven tin; nigbt. before, continued bis re treat in a .Southeasterly direction towards his gunboats on James river.

Instantly from the line of the enemy's breastworks a murderous storm of grape and canister was hurled into their ranks, with the most terrible effect. Officers and men went down hy hun dreds; hut yet, undaunted and unwavering, our line dashed on, until two-thirds of the di>!amv across the field was accomplished. Here tin* carnage troni the withering fire «•} the enemy a combined artillery and musketry was dreadful, yuv line wavered a moment and fell back inti) the cover of •he worlds.

It was not to his taste, in this hour of oar country's trouble, to make any charges against, or throw obstacles in the way of our Generals. Chandler, of Michigan, called up the resolution calling for all orders issued by Gen. McClellan, his correspondence! with the War Department, number ol his forces, Ac. lie modified the resolu tion so as to require the President to fur nish the information, if it is not incompat ible with the public interests. Mr. Wright said he had been mortified at the tone of the Senator’s speech when he offered this resolution, it was not to his taste, in this hour of our country’s trouble, to make any charges against or throw any obstacles in the way of our generals. In the opinion' of the Senator from Michigan, Gen. McClellan must have committed an atrocious crime, worthy of the severest penalty of the law. General M’Clcdlan has not been a newspaper gen eral, gotten up by correspondents, but had been most indiscreetly denounced, yet he has made no reply. He (Mr. W right) would not go back to his operations on the Potomac, nut ventured to say that McClellan’s ten days campaign in front of Richmond, fightingan infuriated enemy, would arouse as much admiration among the people of foreign countries as has awaked hope and confidence among our own people. There was no doubt that McClellan would come triumphantly out of any examination, but this was not the hour to go into any such question and make an at tempt to divide our people. He was in favor of a vigorous prosecution of the war and in favor of a strong confiscation bill, but he I would no nothing to divide the true Union men of the country. This was not the place to pass such resolutions as this with the .sanction of a speech of the Senator fromcMichigan. It President Lincoln .pan j trust McClellan and Stanton, Tie was wil- ring lo trust them, and he would standby the man who was lighting the battles ofhis country. ? Mr. Chandler said it was plain to every man when we sent an army to the Penin sula, we must have retained forces to de fend the Capitol. He had the evidence of nine Major Generals taken before the Committee on the Conduct of the War. in which they said it was absolutely neces fo retain a force for the defense of Washington. General Richardson, in a .sworn statement, said that it would re quire 40,00 n men and a corps of 00,000 uien to stop the movements of the enemy above orbefow. General Franklin thought «>•_>,ouu to oO,Uuo would be necessary; and all said that from 00,000 to 75,000 men !i ecefsSar .v to be left here. When M Clellau went to Fortress Monroe, it was iound that he had not left a single regiment except nineteen, and not left a solitary gun on the wheels for the defense of the Capitol. Was it not proper that these facts should go before the country, and that the people should know what the facts are ? Mr. Lane, of Kansas, moved topost pone the resolution till next December. Mr. Cowan, ot Penna., thought such a resolution should not have been intro duced; but iiow that the issue was made, the resolution ought to be passed and the facts come forth. Mr. Henderson, of Missouri, thought this was going to have .the effect to make two parties in the country in regard to the operations ot the general sin the field. It is idle to talk as the newspapers have, that the rebels will not fight. They will meet us at every point, But if reinforcements are promptly sent to McClellan the rebel capitol can be taken in a month. — These mischievous resolutions only tend to excite party feelings. If any general is incompetent, let the President remove him at once: but he had seen no incompetency in front of Richmond. Ihe resolution was then passed: yeas o'.*, nays *l. Navs—Messrs. Anthony, Foster, Lane, (ot Kansas.) McDougall, Saulsbury and Wright.

Mr. Follamar said lie should vote against the bill as it stood, on the ground that it provided tor unlimited conscription. He said this country in the Rev olution ami the war*of 1812 not in any way to adopt thf? system of European con scription, but this bill allows the President to draft men in such numbers and for such time as he pleases, which, in fact is con scription.

Bombardment of Vicksburg Attempt to Run the Blockade FOREIGN NE.WB President Lincoln at Pt. Monroe. EVERYTHINCi QUIET BEFORE RICHMOND. Vicksburg, Miss., JulyT.—Themortars from above and below continue to shell the city. ; The rebels have a number of siege guns mounted on field carriages which they transfer trom point to point, as the previ ous position is made untenable by our guns. (ien. Williams has planted a field bal tery opposite the city, which canses coi siderable annoyance to the gunners. The work on the canal progresses raj idly, and large additions have been mad to the number of contrabands employe. New Yoke, July 10.—A rebel dispatch says that the British steamer Modern Greece, while going into Wilmington, N. C., on the 27th, was run aground by the bio ckading fleet, who hauled off on the fort opening upon them. She had 1,001) tons of powder aboard. The fort succeed ed in striking her so as to wet the powder and prevent an explosion by the Federal shells. It ip believed that a large part of the cargo will be saved. The passengers and crew were saved. Quixcy, 111., July 10. —Six bushwhack ers visited the residence of a Union man named Pratt, in Lewis county, Mo., on Tuesday last and robbed the house and murdered him. A band of 80 in number visited Monticello, near Canton in the same county, yesterday, and robbed the store ot Mr. Thurston of everything of val ue. The citizens of Canton are preparing to defend themselves in anticipation of an attack trom these marauders. St. Jouxs, N. F.

Nkvv \ okk , July lu.—The fCxarrsit of this evening says the dry goods importers have declined to make sales, except in small lots, and credits are at an. end until the prices of exchange will allow them to know what goods are worth. Exchange ou London was quoted at 2Si percent, premium this afternoon. I he Chamber of Commerce, Union I >e fense Committee, Mayor's OSic-e Commit tee. and tilth Avenue Hotel Committee, have united in a call for a Union war meeting, to be held on Tuesday evening next. lhe Italian government persisted in pointing out that the pretence of Fraucis the Second at Home is a source of the dis orders. He believed that Napoleon also shares this conviction, and perceives the necessity for providing against its contin uance ; but the difiiculties cannot all be vanquished at a single blow. A high military commission was about to assemble in Prussia to consider the pos sibility of reducing the military budget. Important changes in the tarilt'will be re ported and proposed to the new chamber. The Spanish government had reiterated its firm determination not to prejudice the independence of Mexico. The Danish Heupsad had voted an ex traordinary credit of one million rigslades for war-plated vessels. The crops of England and France are re ported as most favorable. The French manufacturing accounts also show more animation. The latest rumors assert that Gen. (!oy ull will not be recalled from Home. The Paris bouise was flat at fi'Jf. 3 he Italian Minister bad ordered an iu crease in the number of iron-plated ships. 1 he question of Brigandage and the re moval of the ex-King of Naples from Home was debated in the Italian Chambers. M. Kaitezze said that theaccounts of the Brig andage were exaggerated and no addition al lorce was necessary. Lord Palmerston, in the British Par liament, reiterated his declarations against the feasibility of mediation at present. He contends that what is wanted, in order that the war may come to an end, is that each party be brought to apprehend its realization. \Y hen once that is seen, noth ing will prevent to the conclusion of peace, but every word spoken in high places tend ing to foreign intervention delays this con summation. The Paris corespondent of the Times says that dissatisfaction at the Mexican policy is openly expressed, and letters from Mexico convey the same feeling. Lorenzes official report of the Guadeloupe affair admits his defeat, owing to occa sions and false information. His army is in good order. Fortress Moxrob, July 9.—President .incoln arrived at Fortress Monroe at 3 o’clock this afternoon, after a short visit to the armyon the James river. He was re ceived with great enthusiasm, and salute after salute was fired by the several bat teries where he had occasion to visit. His visit at Fortress Monroe was short, only an hour and a half, during which time he dined with Gen. Burnside, on board the Alice Price. At half past four o’clock the President took his departure and passed j down the Roads and was saluted bv seven-' teen rounds from the Jason, an English frigate, which has been lying abreast the fort for several days. All is quiet in the army. Nothing is going on except throwing up breastworksand clearing away trees. Many of our transports are fired into by the rebel flying artillery along down the river at dif ferent points below Harrison’s Landing. A flag of trace sent np York river yes terday returned this afternoon. At Cum berland they found one hundred and live of our wounded soldiers, held as prisoners by the rebels, who readily consented to give them np. Arrangements were at once made to convey them to the Landing where the flag of trace boat, John Tncker, lay.— When they had been conveyed about a mile, I some rebel cavalry came np and compelled them all to return to the hospital. Dr. Bradley, of the Hygeia hospital, Fortress Monroe, was taken prisoner, but was after ward released and came back on the John Tncker. The wounded soldiers were all left at the Cumberland hospital were they found them in the hands oftberebels. ihe fol lowing is the hit of Pennsylvanians in the hospital!: Miller, lient, ®; As*wf HptMi,P: Oscar Shores, H O W Douglass, D; Foreman, (Jjlocia Sager, F: HenrT Armstrong, F; R Song lass, Q; Jno E Moore Hj Jesses S iaatd- Jjftjg£l;‘H C Weils, sergeant, J Spear, SrISS -Bowles, A; J B Hedges, sergeant, Gf J B Warron, F. r»3d Pa—W W Me- Hillj B; John M Bair, R: Geo W Rienel, F; Junes Gibbreath, E: Geo Worden, C: Wash-Bell, K: Martin Naylor, D; K‘ C Bonds, C; B (i Arden, F: John Crooks, F; Simon Shall, 1; Samuel Perkcns, J; Geo Paine, I; A Wat-on, l; Cooper G; J I Gifford, E: Jno R Donslinger, F; Grig Laurence, F; Emanuel Cursins, F; Adam Rotter: corp Geo Wolfskin, O; Michael Roemer, 0; John Henderson, G: John A Robinson.

The scene was heart-rend ing. The steamer Cnnonicas was tired into yesterday by tin* rebels a few miles this side ot Harrison s. Landing. No damage was done. Notwithstanding our gunboats are stationed one evc-vy three miles along* that portion of the river, the rebels, with six lieid pieces, dodge-down near the river and pop away at our transports about ev eryday. They lire and run away before tho gunboats can bring to hear on them as thev are in the woods.
