lho ingenuity of the Gazette is only
• palled by its abolitionism) it is astonish
iug in both. It goes away np into Union
county to find out the political character
of ihe editor of this paper, which it oopies
from the Union County Star, and is as
follows!
„ P- Barr, of Pittsburgh, was
nominated for Surveyor General. He is
editor of the Post, and is described to us
by gentlemen who know him as a slippery.
01 y politician, fit for any desperate work.
He once nominated Buchanan for re-elec
tion— nest came out for Douglas—and is
_iow in full faith with those who killed
Douglas at Charleston. Professedly a
war man, he hinders the Administration
measures necessary to success/*
Slippery ana oily' 1 do not ftpplv in
onr case. Open, candid and ingenuous,
we know nothing of the “slippery and
ody” tricks of the professional politician.
TVe were nominated without resorting to
any “slippery or oily” expedients, and
**e intend to be elected in tho same hon
orable manner. The allusion to our being
ia faith with those who “kilied Douglas,"
together without - “hindering war measures
necessary to sueoess," we leave without
comment to the pleasing contemplation of
oar readers. Alter they get through with it
we wish them to bestow but a Single thought
upon the mtannessof the wretch who wrote
it and the no less reckless creature who
copied it. But the Gazette has lost all the
reputation it ever hud; it doesn’t now
aspire beyond publishing such a paragraph
as wo have quoted, or garbling a speech
like that of U overact- Johnson, of Ten
nessee, to suit its purpose. What else it
is capable of doing we may readily con
clude by examining what little and mean
things it has accomplished.
Let the Gazette editor offer himself for
a State nomination in its approaching
Abolition Convention; we will venture
something that with ail his whining and
lamentation overslavery, he will not be able
to secure the delegates of this county.
But should he get their votes, and with
them the nomination, we will risk some
thing handsome that we will beat him
ever, in Allegheny county. No one con
nected with a p ß per that follows the lead
of. Wendell Phillips and Fred. Douglass,
and who advocates natural and political
equality, cau receive the public endorse
ment of a majority of the sag«cious and j
respectable citizens of this cotuity

From tlie statement ofan escaped North
ener, who was In the South for twentv
two months, we make the following ev
There i.- one liimg which should' he
borne m mind. The abolition course of
policj which has been carried on bv Con

of the .Southerner towards the North than
all the military expeditions which could be

It is my opinion that the Confiscation

Son'th'“ : h " 110 ROW K oi,, e in the

hey are to lose their property in any

general .ccling, and it b my belief that
tney will light to the J„st against what
they consider, und what they are taught bv
thotr leaders to regara, as' an abolition

th- present circumstances, it dare not
show itself, for it would boaccusr-dnf«Vm

understood, however, that us long aslegis
intion is carried on in the interest of aboli

with arms, and seek, in a separation, a
release from what they consider, under
these circumstances, as a “hateful bond.”
.conclusion I may remark that about
eight hundred negroes escaped from the
vicinity of Georgetown, and that thev are
now ou North Island, about twelve miles
from below that place, where they support
themselves by fishing and raising produce,
as well as foraging upon the property of
tbeir former owners.
At the time of the proclamation of Jeff.

Dear Sir : As very many of your readers
hare friends in the Eighth Regiment, Pa.
R. 0., I concluded to drop you a line
more particularly H 3 y OU have no doubt
heard of ns having had some sharp work
for the last ten or twelve days past.
On the 2Gth of dune we had our first
fight, or what might be called a fight it
lasted from two o’clock p. m i nti]
nine at night. We lay upon our arms
?i! i n, ¥? ,t ' a ? d oBr re giment opened
the ball in the morning. About eight
o clock wo were ordered to fall back B tn
Gaines’ Mill, which dissatisfied us greatly

was the 2TO. e ? d W t 0 aCt J On a * ai “- (This
was tae 2<th.) We made some splendid
fighting at this place. At one time we
? adeacha r?« on ‘heir line, driving them
back beautifully, and as we came out in
line we were cheered by all the regiments
f ro , n J! d Bs - Ca Pt- Gallope was wounded
10 .this charge, as well as Capts. Wishert
and Johnston, all, I believe, severely as
well as many privates. It was hard work
here for a while. We were then ordered
to cross the Chickahominy, and on the 30th
we again engaged the enemy and had the
most desperate fight of the three. We are
now reduced to about 400 men. Our Col
onel, George S. Hays, (who lives in your
place,) is as brave and kind an officer as
ever lived. He had his horse shot under
him in this last fight, and how he escaped
so loLg is a wonder to every man in the
regiment, as he was close to us all the
time, cheering ns on. He has been sick
for some da /s, but sticks to us like an
officer should) (God bless him.)

river, and a great many fresh troops are
coming in. How long we will stay Ido

Corixtu, July JJ.—Official information
ims been received nt headquarters of the
arrival of Curtiss’ army at Clarendon on
the ■ Otb, after almost daily skirmishing in
whn-h the rebels were worsted. Six thotis*
sand rebels made a stand on the Tth at
Couch River, near Round Hill. Col.
Harvey, of the 33d Illinois, commanding
the advance of the division, afterwards
reinforced by two companies, attacked
and completely routed the rebels, scatter*,
mg them m all directions, mostly all going
towards Lutle Rock. Thev also evacuated
DunaPs Bluff.
Later.— -Curtis' advance has reached
Helena. The army is in good condition
ana spirits. Provisions are scarce, but
supplies are coming from Memphis,
i 1 ; e 1 Bulletin says! Morgan’s
hand last night destroyed the long bridge
j)n the Kentucky Central Railroad, between ;
Cvnthiana and Paris. A gentleman re
siding near Cynthiana says that Morgan’s
m^ve 9 n Frankfort and Lexington were
°. u v femts, their real object being to strike
the Railroad at Paris and destroy the
lownsend viaduct, which would take six
weeks to reconstruct, and then destroy the
property in Bourbon county, and return
to Harrodsburgh or Mount Sterling.
Major Hatch, of Cincinnati, renders part
ot the above improbable, and reports this
evening that the Railroad track between
Lexxtigton and Frankfort has been torn un
to-day by guerrillas.

i •J tle . r , furth ? r , discussion, the hill was
I as '“e._and the bill amendatory of the
act of 1 1 90, calling forth the militia, was
taken up. The question being on Mr.
Sherman’s amendment, limiting emanci
pation of those who enter the service of the
United States to slaves of rebels, Mr.
Lane of Kansas said there were <i,"(00
slaves in Kansas, the majority of which
belonged to loyal masters, out of which
I number it was proposed to raise two reH
fme"ts - The wea of putting these men in
to the field to fight bravely, and then, when
I they had helped to save our countv. return
them to slavery, is outrageous. Tf e gov
ernment that wonld do such athinga3 that
i would deserve the vengeance of the A 1
mighty. He proposed, as an amendment
to pay loyal masters. ’
Mr. Sherman thought the question nl
emancipation was now mingled sufficient
ly with war measures. It was i
whether the country could bear
of debt which the prop o Bition''tt) t pay < for
