DECLINES THE HONOR.
The Pittsburgh Dispatch of yesterday
contains the following card:
Pittsbar y It, Sept. 24.—11 es s.
I. observe by your paper of this morning
that I was lio-ored as one of the Vice
Presidents, at a Democratic meeting held
In Pittsburgh last evening. I was not
present., and respectfully decline all such
honor. As our country is in H:cit
nent peril I think this no time f:.n
or partizan gatherings. M•,-
and duties, as an adopted 1 con
sider ofgreater obligation, and more bind
ing on me, than the triumph or Fuccess of
any political party. Yours, respectfully,
GEORGE' 1:.
NV hoever suggested Mr. Whit,- for one
of the officers of the meeting alluded to
should have consulted that gentleman
prior to its organization. This liberty
taken :with Mr. White's name was suffi
cient of itself to prompt his declination of
" all such honor." We cannot see, how
ever, how Mr. White's "allegiance and
duties as an adopted citizen " at all con
flict with acting as Vice President of a
Democratic meeting. Regarding the tri
umph of our country as being paramount
to party is a pretty and patriotic senti•
ment ; but those who use it should point
out how we are to serve the country but
by electing man to fill our offices who are
really and truly for the maintenance of that
constitution which Mr. White and all other
adopted citizens have sworn to " suPport
and defend. — Besides, if Mr. lYilite will
look around he will perceive ;eat those
whose political heresies he has ti ,r so many
years combated arc in ;the field with their
party and their candidates; and in this
county they do not even assume the flimsy
dodge of "No Party," or "[niou Party,"
but are open Republican partisans. At
the head of their ticket they have a notori
ous renegade, who left the Democratic
party to join the Know-Nothings, all of
_whom were sworn to proscribe just such
citizens as Mr. White is. It is very true
that he and others like hint, who have be
longed to every political organization, now
talk of the propriety of having no party
but their own. But certainly Mr. (ice. R.
White has watched these political trim
mers too closely to be bamboozled by any
such transparent, hypocrisy. If this coun
try and its constitution are to be saved
from absolute and speedy ruin, it must be
by the force of party—and that, too, by
the Democratic organization and those
who may see the propriety of acting with
it. The party in power can't save it ; the
last eighteen months have demonstrated
that; yet they insist on being continued in
power, and Mr. White and the rest of
are compelled :o either sulonit to their
destructive doctrines or join the Demo
cratic organization, which is pledged
against them. There i, no other alterna
tire,
THE PRESIDENT'S PROCLA
MATION.
Sadden Change of Opinion.
The late emancipation - proclamation e f -
President Lincoln bothers our cotempnra
ries more than anything he has dene
his inauguration. There is, huwe,-ei•-
of two things conceded. The Prel-hien ,
was either bullied into it by the radica:s,
within a very few days, er he urea muel:
very unnecessary dissimulation in his in
terviews with various persons with whom
this emancipation policy was patient :.::d
thoroughly discussed. The New York
Evening Posh excellent authority, ailed
iog to this subject, remarks:
"It is well known that the President
had this proclamation ready some ?yeas
since; that he laid it before his Cabinet
and urged,•with his usual clearness and
impressiveness of statement, the reasons
for issuing it; that he found but two of ti:.'
members averse to the measure—Mr. Se
ward and Mr. Blair, whose objections
were so strongly urged that he laid it for
a time aside." _
"Some weeks since,'' the I:codify l'uf:t
remarks, this proclamation was laid before
the Cabinet, prior to the disastrous defeats
of General Pope; and consequently " hon
• est old Abe" must have been satisfied of
its utility even before he laid it before his
ministers. Bat mark what follows. On
Sunday evening, the 9th of this month,
there assembled "a meeting of Christians
of all denominations," in Bryan's Hall, in
the city of Chicago, who appointed a com•
mittee to visit Washington and impress
upon the President the necessity of such
a proclamation as lie has since issued.
This committee reached Washington on
the 11th, and had their interview two days
after. The committee returned home to
Chicago, and made their 'report, from
which we select the following summary,
from a Chicago paper:
President Lincoln failed to recognize
the subject in the same light in which it
was viewed by the committee nod their
constituents. He reminded them that we
did not at the present time live in an age
of miracles, and he himself had not receiv
ed, nor did he anticipate, any special rev
elation. He plainly asked the committee
what good - could result from the issue of a
proclamation of the nature they desired
ham- should promulgate. It would he dis
regarded by the people of the South: it
would in no way influence their action,
save to make them more determined in
their resistance; it would not change their
course of action, or influence their courts
or their people. Even at the present time
we exercise authority over hut a small por
tion of slave territory, and of what possi
ble . efliect-could be a proclamatio n of that
nature at the present time. He made no
moral or legal objection to the purpose
they desired to accomplish—had thought
much upon the subject; it had been upper
most in hiti_mind for a long time, and he_
had viewed it in every possible phazt , in
which it could present itself. He was will
big to give heed to the suggestions and
views of all: The President moreover re
minded the committee that already Con
gress had passed, and he had approved a
bill of confiscation and emancipation. bet
he was not yet aware of - a single instance
wherealaves bad been induced to come
w i t hi n - . our lines, to desert their masters
and the South, under the promise of free
dom to the slaves of rebels held out in that
act. Even this promise, which Congress
at its last session had made fur the eman
eipation of the slaves rebels had proven
futile. Ile believed that as Commander
in-chief of the Army and Navy in time of
war, he was justified in adopting all means
which would tend to weaken and destroy
the resources and strength of the enemy.
The appropriation of the slaves of rebels
would tend to weaken them inasmuch as
it would reduce thenumber of their labor
ers, but so far as the project of arming the
slaves was concerned, it would be useless
to attempt it for the primary and excel
lent, reason that we had not now sufficient
arms to supply our white volunteers.
Moreover, the negroes would be a deci
ded burden upon us, and indeed they had
alreedy become so. But few days . ago he
had received from Major General B .tier,
at New Orleans, information that negroes
which had already accumulated upon his
hands were more than he well knew how
to dispose of Already lie_ issued to the
negroes within his lines as many rations
daily as he did to his owe troops I Now
this burden, increased to the extent it.
would be. could a general emancipation at
once take place, would be enounous in
deed.
The President also stated that. there was
another consideration which, in his esti
mation, was a most important one, but
which they (the committee) possibly might
contcnipt. The border States
had cent..tbuted 'largely and patriotically
in volumet.rs to prossoeute the war tor
the Union. Wonid it not he a sad result,
asked the Pre, , ident of the committee, it;
by a proclamation of the nature you tie-
sire should be issiled, we should alienate
the brave ini.o who are new so gallantly
assisi lug our vans' , ? 'bo this eonsidera-
tion the Executive attached much impor
tance, and regarded it as bearing with
great force upon the influence and results
of which such a proclamation would be
productive.
The President asmred the committee
that it. was his object, and all hi..l efforts
were directed to the one great purpose of
re establishing governmental authority in
our land. Whatever was best calculated
to accomplish that purpose he should not
fail to adopt. Ht had given them his
views upon the subject candidly, and,
after mutual expressions of courtesy, the
etnbassey from the Christians of Chicago
retired from the Executive. Chamber of
the nation.
The reader will conclude. that the Presi•
dent must have received "a revelation" or
he could not, so suddenly, get over his
fears as to the edict of an emancipation
Proclamation.
BRECKINRIDGE TICKET.

The Finances of the South.
A few days since, says the Chicago
ac h.:see ed Om improbability of
ietrehases herieg been made to any con
ti treble extent in Europe by the negotia
tion of Southern hoods. The Richmond
Examiner of the fifth inst. furnishes a
summary of the state of the rebel finances,
compiled from oilfield &lett 1114 - `1164 sub
mitted to the Confetbirate Congress. The
whole amount of the funded debt on the
Ist of August was forty-one millions of
dollars. That but a small portion even of
this forty-one millions was used, or at
tempted to be used, in Europe, is mani
fest front the Examiner's statement that
"There is an evident indisposition on the
part of our people to make investments in
this form. The funded debt is lamenta
bly small, and we have little prospect of
raising money by bond or stock."
the amount raised by customs thus far
has been but little more than one million
of dollars, and their internal tax has
yielded them only ten millions. The
finances of the rebels are, from the Exam
iner's statement, in a desperate-condition,
and no financier has yet been able to de
vise a scheme for replenishing their ex
hausted exchequer. The people are des
titute of money. When we take into con
sideration the enormous expenses of the
war upon so small a population—that they
have been cut off from commerce—have
been sending all their money out of the
country for the purchase of war material
—have been compelled to commeeee and
operate large manufactories, receiving no
returns from. them—we can readily see that
their finances are eehaested.
Could they have open ports and unre•
st.ieted trade, we should see such a revi
vaLof energy and strength in the seceded
States, and such a determination to prose
cute the war, as would appal the strougest
heart. Our navy and our blockade are
the ruin of their plans. They have not
arms or clothing or camp equipage enough
to supply properly what, men they now
have in the field, and while their ports are
closed they cannot obtain them. Every
musket we capture front them is equal to
a man gained for us and lost to them.
The absence of money is because of the
interdiction of commerce. So ;ong as this
is maintained their money could not be
made available, even if 1.114 possessed it.
The armies they have in the field can and
will be conquered, and they cannot raise
more, because they cannot equip them.
What they may do it driven to despera
tion remains to be seen. The energy of
despair is beyond human calculation. We
can avert its action. or can produce it, to
recoil upon ourselves.
utility of inoculating sheep fur
small-pox is loudly proclaimed in Eng
land. In a Mr. !larding's flock of four
"hundred and forty-six inoculated, four
hundred lived. and out of Live hundred
limbs only two di,•d A neighboring
fl ~ek
master has been equally successful; while,
.vhere the disease was taken naturally,
sixty-eight per cent. were lost.
I will give the last bit of gossip, although
it has a spice of scandal in it. Fur a long
time it has been known that the rebels
have had some means by which they gain
ed the earliest and most reliable informa
tion, that • could come only from some
official sources. For instance, the removal
of General Hunter was alluded to in Jeff.
Davis' message long before the fact was
known to our people. Many parties have
been suspected and watched, but no one
was detected. General Halleck run the
thread of suspicion and his proof up to
the hand that held it. It proved to be a
woman, the wife of a loyal man who has
been quite conspicuous in this war. The
proof is said to be overwhelming and un
questioned. The party is one long sus
pected, and General Halleck demanded
that the party should at once be carried
from the city. Such is the - rumor froin lips
of those who are usually well informed,
and who have no doubt of facts. The
name of the suspected party I do not think
proper to give.
A gentleman high in office life, a United
States Senator, who has bad a personal
knowledge of events that have transpired,
has made some revelations about the
peninsular campaign that are quite stir
prising.
As they will be made public, and were
not given under the seal of privacy, I will
lay them before your readers. He says the
Peninsula campaign was not planned by
General McClellan and was not approved
by him; that it was discussed in a Cabinet
meeting at which General McClellan was
present and some officers ; that he then
and there stated clearly the dangers of
such a campaign, and set forth how it c mid
be successful, if at all,and when be accept
ed it he did so with certain conditions
about the mode of conducting it, and as an
indispensable element of success trans
ports in quantity and time, should be at
his disposal, at the place appointed, and
that reinforcements should be at the point
designated, most of which was neglected.
1.1 is transports were sent iu time. They
2atne in such quantities as to be almost
worthless. And General McClellan was
thwarted and plotted against from the mo
ment he left for his command till General
Pope's disastrous defeat; that Gen. Mc-
Clellan will be fully vindicated when the
history of the campaign shall be known,
and that his statements, frankly and clear
ly made before the campaign began, have
'been borne out with sz.ruptilens and mar
velous accuracy. I could give you the
name of the gentleman. It would carry
much the same weight that it does in the
con nsels of the nation.
_ .
While . on this gefieral subject 1 will add
other thing from an eye witness. When
1 C.::r+u~::" i +snl:r.
'opo was in command, and General Mc-
Clellan was at rest at Alexandria, with
his score or two of men he was keeping
watch over, and with his eyes on the few
baggage wagons he was allowed to tend,
(like David with the few sheep he was
tending before he was called to rescue the
nation and army from Goliah,) he sat on
a hillside with his staff, quietly smoking
his cigar, while the booming of the guns
bore to his ear the noise of battle. His
staff chafed under his position. and, as
they had great confidence in McClellan's
ability, were indignant that their favorite
chief should be left in semi-disgrace. Mc-
Clellan was cool . and quiet. He stated
that Pope was attacked—that he would be
defeated—that his own noble men, whom
he loved as children, would be slaughtered
as cattll, without any good purpose. He
marked out the result as clearly as if it
was history, all of which has been fulfilled,
and expressed his abiding confidence that
he would yet, and in a few days, lead the
army to victory.
TnE Archbishop of Canterbury has just
died, and the people are wondering who
shall be the successor of "the Primate of
all England." Lord Palmerston, - as Prime
Minister, has the appointment in his hands,
and people talk of his luck. He has filled
once the sees of London, York, Rochester,
Norwich, Ripon and Worcester, and twice
those of Carlisle, Durham, and Gloucester
cud Bristol, as well as the Irish Primacy.
A Pr.oronmAN was hung at Warwick,
England, recently, for shooting his fellow
servant in the back while bent over the
washtub, according to his own confession,
because she never would draw him enough
beer I He also stated that before com
mitting the crime he had "tossed up"
whether he should kill the girl or not, and
the chance lighting of the instrument he
tossed declared the poor girl's fate.
It was supposed that the loss of the cot
ton crop would lead to a large extension
of the growth of flax this year in Ireland.
It appears, however, from the returns is
sued by the Irish Registrar General, that
'the total increase has been only to the ex
tent of nineteen hundred acres. In the
south and west of Irehtnii the cultivation
of flax has actually debreased since last
year.
A private letter from Mr. Chas. Wright,
on the gunboat Benton, on the Mississip
pi river, to his sister in this city, gives an
amusing account of an interview with a
lumberman uu the Yazoo, river who had
never heard of the troubles about secession
and received his first • intimation of war
from our force on the gunboat. He had
been in the gum swaps for two
.years.—
When be met our gunboats and heard of
the war 'he was much istottished,"as may
well be supposed. HO Was on his - way, at

The Late Judge Jones.
In the dispensation of an an wise Provi
dence, another of our prominent and
worthy citizens has been called to the dark
recesses of the grave. Among many. of
death's victims lately - calle(poml . Our
midst, we have now to record the demise
of the Hon. Samuel Jories. -
I n all the conditioni df life Judgejonei
possessed many pre-eminently good quali
ties. Socially, no man held a happier
position ; always friendly, always cheerful,
always the life and spirit of his compan
ions and acquaintances.
As an officer charged with public
trusts, none more faithfully and ably exe
cuted duties imposed upon him.
Au agent of the Commonwealth—a
Judge of our Courts, he had the deserved
confidence and respect of the entire com
munity.
In the private relations of husband,
father and neighbor, the void created by
his death cannot be well supplied. Affec
tionate and kind as a husband; indulgent
and warm-hearted as a parent; firm and
faithful as as a citizen; and in all the re
lations of life, upright, good and open
hearted. His uaefulness . in our society
will be deeply and duly 'appreciated.
Judge Jones died in the 63d year of his
age. He was born in . Cincinnati, but
early in life became a citizen of Pennsyl
vania, where his ancestors had been hon
ored, trusted and respected. The places
that knew hint shall know him no more.
His good wife and sweet family have our
deepest sympathy. The Lord, who tem
pers the winds to the shorn lamb, and the
God of the widow and orphans will pro
tect, cherish and sustain them. J.

Charles Sumner and the Negro.
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican, a
paper of decided Abolition tendencies, but
which is nos disposed to tidlow the lead Of
the radical" in all their *ltra schema,
strongly denounces 'the action of the re
cent Massachusetts Continition, on ac-
Count of its excessive glorification of Mr.
Sumner. It denies Mr. Sumner's busi
ness qualifications, and adds:
Mr. Sumner is the idolator of a single
idea, magnified and distorted entirely out
of its legitimate relations to other ideas.
This he shows everywhere. We see it in
all he does; . and as a specimen of what we
allude to, let us take a passage in his
freshest production—his letter to the late
convention. It will be remembered that
in this letter he speaks of the incident in
Banks' retreat before Stonewall Jackson
—of the little slave girl on her way to free
dom, who was lifted upon the national
cannon. This act of lifting this little girl
to a cannon, and giving her a ride—a sim
ple act of common kindness which all of
us who have horses indulge in when we
can—is pronounced by Sumner to be the
"brightest, most touching and most sug
gestive of the whole war." flood Heaven!
What is this man talking about? "The
brightest, most touching and most sugges
tive!" Women have given np husbands,
and one, two, three, lour, five sons, and
given them up with tearful gladness, to suf.
ter and die, if need be, for the salvation of
the country; 10,000 to 14,b00 young men,
in the high tide of life in the morning, have
lain at night dead and wounded on the
field, among their horses, when the stars
were blinded with the hastly scene ; in
ten thousand homes there have been wail
ing and despair among the bereft ; a mil
lion men have rushed to arms voluntarily
for the vindication of the national flag; a
whole nation has been upon its knees in
prayer ; women have fought traitors pistol
in hand and conquered them ; hundreds
and thousands of men have suffered them
selves to be shot, imprisoned, hung, rather
than deny their patriotic faith ; thousands
of delicate women have left their comfort
able and often luxurious homes to spend
weeks and months in pestilent hospitals
among the wounded and dying sol
diers; and yet in all these things Mr.
Sumner can see nothing so "bright," or
so "touching," as the little incident of
lilting a girl to a ride on a cannon! Nay,
he has summoned to his imagination its
exceeding picturesqueness, and he says
that "art will hereafter rejoice to com
memorate" it. Bah ! What stuff is this?
Is the man mad? Can he not think of
anything but a negro? Are there no
white people in the country, draggling,
suffering, doing, dying, bravely and Chris
tianly ? Yet this is Charles Sumner
through and through—the negro forever,
and nothing else. Is it not about time
that we have a man in the Senate who will
not be looking quite so closely after artis
tic effects, involving the relations of Afri.
can limbs and Virginia drapery to national
cannon?

AMERICAN WATCHES FOR AMERICANS.
THE AMERICAN WATCH COMPANY give
notice, that they have lately Issued a new. style of
Watch, expressly deigned for Soldiers and others
who desire a good watch at a moderate price.—
These watches are intended to displace the worth
less, cheap watches of British and Siss manufac
ture, with which the country is flooded, and which
were never expected to keep time when they were
made, being refuse manufactures, -sent to this
country, because unsaleable at home, and used
hereonly foriockeying and moireifinainriteees.
We offer to sell our Watch, which is of THE
MOST SUBSTANTIAL MANUFACTURE, AN
ACCURATE AND DURABLE TIMEKEEPER,
and in Sterling Silver Cues, Bunting Pattern,
at as low a price as is asked for the trashy Ancrea
and Lepinee of foreign make, already referred to•
We have named the new series of Watches, WM.
ELLERY, Boston. Mass., which name will be
found on the plate of every watch of this manu
facture, aad is one of our trade marks.
