Some of the men live hundreds of miles from here, and, by the time they re ceive their pay, there will be very little left for their families, perhaps not enough to Carty theft home. Well, if these mendiad re•enliated no doubt they would have.promptly received their pay. 1 merely mention this to show you that once men are discharged from the army tii Go'fremment gives little heed whether they are paid or not, for the reason that it can't have them under its thumb to votd' for Uncle Abraham in the coining eleCtion:: Speakers at every meeting of 140 me h call McClellan xi copperhead, an'cl'say that fie is . disloyal, tic., but all the 'aka they Ott cast upon that man will nevei r piejudice the old Army of the Po toniac against ,Every - day we look artilously 'Tot the paltry sum eoming to us Ali a recOMpense for years of hardship and privation,'Yo maintain the Consti tutidn which loyal braggadocios care not a pin about if thdy can carry out theft ends.

RANDOLPH. A Curious Correspondence The Abolition managers or Mr. Lin- coln at Washington, have thought it necessary to send over the wires a little correspondence which purports.to have taken place between the. President and General , Grint,,lain:Aptill„ The Presi dent's note runs thus: . - E.SECHTtVE MANSION • WASHINGTON, Akril 30, 181 A. : TO Litnienartf Gttiercif Grirtri: Not expecting to see - you before the spring campaign.opene 1, wish to oxpress, in this way, my entire satiefaction with what you have dune up to Hine time, solar as I understand it. The particulars of your plans 1 neither know nor seek In know. You are vigilant and self reliant, and pleased with this I wish not to obtrude any restraints or constraints uponyou. While lam very anxious that any 'great disaster or capture of our men in great numbers shall be avoided, I know unit Ulnae points are less likely to escape your attention than they would mine. If there ue anything Wanting which is within my power to give, do not tail to let me know it, and now, with a brave army and just cause, may God sustain you. Yours, very respeetfully, A Li ncoin. ' The only reason the Abolitionists can have for raising this letter, which is 'witty six months old, is to prove that :Grant and not Lincoln is to blame for not capturing Richmond. The President 'promised to give everything the General required, and not even asa to be made acquainted with his plans. Allowing then, -- that the President has kept his word, as every one knows he has, ai least in furnishing men, how do we stand? May, June, July, August and •nearly September have gone and lo Rich mond is not yet taken! How different is this letter of Mr. Lincoln to those he wrote to 'General McClellan, during the first year of the rebellion? Then he kept up a constant cry "to cover the capital' by all means, and was constantly interfering in Mc- Clellan's operations. He wouldn't re inforce the army when McClellan dem onstrated its necessity, and instead of givingliim all he desired to crush the rebellion, the President through Halleck dismissed him because "he was toe slow in bagging Lee's army." Since then the resources of this powerful Govern ment have been wasted in experiment ing•on overland routes,and Grant is not quiteas near to Richmond as McClellan was two, years ag6. Having failed so , shamefully to accomplish the capture of the rebel capital, it is but proper that !Grant shduld let "Honest Abe" relieve 'himself of the responsibility of the fail ure. Had McClellan permitted himself to be thus used, and Written letters to 'suit every 'political occasion, he might have been still' in the command of the Potomac Army. But he told the truth, when -he charged the Administration with "a want of brain," and his sudden dismissal was, of course, the goalie quence Ilas'G row!' Tirettoe It • The Pittsburgh Contmercial has grown tired of watching the political signs of the times ; it says: • "We conithericed to cut from our exchanges, with the Intention of publishing, the votes on railroad trains and elsewhere, showing the prepooderence in favor of Lincoln over 151celblIan; also,test votes taken in hospitals and canitm, showing that thersoldiers are lour to one for Lincoln. /tut we Mid that this record would •occupy so much room in our columns, that we are reluctantly compelled to omit It" Rather Heavy. Democratic Congressional Confer once. The Democratic conferees of this con• gressional district met at Franklin on Wednesday Sept. 14th 1864, at 2 o'clock, P. M. On motion Wm, Garvin, of Mer cer, was chosen President, and Thos. W. Grayson, of Crawford county, Sec retary. The following is a list of the names of the conferees, with their in ,,tructions : CLARION—S. S. Jones and D. B. Curl] —instructed for W. L. Corbett. VENANCIO--JOhn Phipps, Jas. Mc- Cutchen and 8. C. T. Dodd—instructed for J. P. Hoover. 211ERCER—Wm. Garvin, Wm. Mc- Knight and H. H. Foster—inrtructod for R. M. De France. ChAwiroxo--R,Votinson, M. Park Davis and Thos. W. Grayson—instruc-_ ted lei Gaylord Church. In view of the unavoidable fili:ence of one of the conferees from Clarion, those present were allowed to cast three votes. On motion the Convention proceedei to ballot. Atter three ballots withou waking a choice the convention adjourn until 11 A. M on Thursday the 15th THURSDAY, Sept 15th. Convention re-assembled. Leave be ing granted, the name of Gaylord Cnurch was withdrawn, and the follow lug letter ordered to be incorporated as part of the proceedings : EstivlLLE, Ps., Sept. 10, 1564. Titos. \V. GasicsoN, Est.—Dasit Stit —I only learned to-day, on reaching home, of my nomination by the recent Convention as a candidate for Congress. This manifestation of the renewed confidence of my fellow citizens with whom I have been associated for more than thirty years, is gratifying beyond expression. I thank thfin for the evi dence of interest and support thus adord ed. To merit and have their good will and confidence under such circumstan ces, is of more value to me than the of fice and honors to be Conferred. Cordially and heartily approving the action of the recent National Conven tion at Chicago, and the nominations there made, and believing the election of General McClellan to the Presidency to be the last remaining hope of our coun try and her free institutions, if I thought my entering the emvass as a candidate for Congress in this District, would, more than any other person, increase• the strength or afford encourarment to the friends of the Constitution and Union in the approaching election I should not hesitate to allow the use o: my name as proposed. But believ;m: others may be selected to effect this ob ject as well in this emergency, I respect fully decline the nomination, Von will, tht refore, withdraw toy name front before the Conferees in Convention. I beg to assure my friends that this course pursued by me will not in the least abate the interest I shall take in the pending elections, and the labor I am able to give the cause. Yours, very truly, GAYLORD OrrultCH. The convention again proceeded to ballot. After several ineffectual ballot ings, the name of J. P. Hoover was, by consent, withdrawn. Another, and the 10th vote was then taken when it ap peared that W. L. Cot bett, was duly nominated. On motion of Mr. McKnight the nom nation wa- declared unanimous. On motion Messrs. Foster, Johnson and McCutehen were appointed to in form Mr. Corbett of his nomination• Oninothai the convention adjourned sine die. Somnambulism. One of the most remarkable cases on record is related by the Archbishop of Bordeaux in the "Eiai..yclopedie Metho dique." It was concerning a young priest in the Catholid Seminary, who used to rise in his sleep and write ser mons. Having written a page, he would read it aloud, and make corrections "I have seen," says the Archbishop, "the beginning of one of his sermons which he had written when asleep. It was well composed; but one correction surprised me. Having written at first the words ce dicin enfant, he hod after• terward effaced the word dicin, and written over it adorable. Then perceiv• ing that ce could not stand before the last word, he had dexterously inserted at,soas to make the word cet." Ile continued to write, although a card was held between his eyes and the paper. Did the history stop here, we should have a well authenticated case of vision without the aid of eyes. But the collateral circumstances show that this writing was accomplished not by sight, but by a most accurate mental representation of the object to be attain ed, as will be further illustrated in our next case. For after he had written a page requiring correction, a piece of blank paper of the exact size was sub stituted fur his own manuscript; on that he made the corrections in the precise situation which they would have occu pied on the original page. A very as tonishing part of this report is that which relates to his writing music in his sleep ing state, with, it is said, perfect precis ion. He asked for certain things, and saw and heard such things, but only such things as bore directly upon the subject of his thoughts. He detected the decao . when wa.ter was givarilaiin instead of brandy, which he had asked for. Fi nally, he knew nothing of all that had transpired when' he awoke, but in his next paroxysm he remembered all ac curately; and so liveda sort of double life, a phenomenon which we beliei e to be univenal in all the cases of exaited somnambulism A DANGEROUS PIECE OF PAPER.-A new countereit five on the Union Bank of Philadelphia was issued on Saturday night, as dangerous as a badly lighted alley. It is almost a fee-smile of the original. At least a half dozen storekeep ers, all in• different parts off thefdity, re— ceived them as genuine. None but the befit lfiatei would qiiesticar 'tbtterif;prge sentea by 14'' iispec4ble-appefiring per - BOIL ' M. ircni_bra WED is the inventor of a atib-littifne used;laktaritt, whir& has bee,_n is, with a access to illuminateltne bottom of the bay at Cronstradt, in Ru nt& Elvin the Erie Dtiaerver. ca Dan Rice for State Senator. The "Confetees from this and Crawford county met at Corry, on Tuesday after noon last, a brief -session, concluded their duties by the unanimous nomina tion of Col. Dan Rice, of Girard, as the competitor of Mr. Lowry for the State Senate. We doubt tot that these proceedings will be endorsed by the en tire Democratic party of the district,and sustained by a large number of Repub licans. Col. Rice is well known to almost every man, woman and child in the Lathed states, but by none so . well as 'those id Erie Cotinty. He hat ,iesided among us a great many years, and,what ever may be said of him by his enemies, we defy-any one to prbduce a single item of testimony, which can detract frcinihis character as a good citizen, and hospitable, high-toned, and large heart ed gentleman. His generosity is almost boundless; and has earned for him an enviable distinction in every part of the country. That he has native talents of a rare order will be admitted by all who have ever made his acquaintance. He would enter the Senate, if elected, with a practical experience of the world, and a broad, comprehensive knowledge of the wants and duties of the people, pos sessed by few members of that body, and certainly would be superior in every respect to the present Senator from this district. The people - always like a w hole souled, good-natured and liberal man, and more supprising things have hap pened than the election of Col. Dan Rice to the Senate. The following letter from Col. Rice to a gentleman who wrote to him, inquir— ing if he would accept the nomination, has been handed to us for publication. As a statement of his political views, it will be read with interest: CINCINNAtr, August. Bth 1804. Dtt,An SlR.:—Your favour of the 4th inst., has just been received, and amidst the pressure of other engagements I send you this hasty and impromptu reply. You enquire whether I will acquiesce in the use of my name as a candidate for the State Senate in the event of my nom ination ? In the first place I would re— mark that the idea of becoming a candi, date for office has not heretofore been contemplated by me. My business, as you know, is one not likely to connect my thoughts or interests with my poli tics. Still, as an American citizen, I cannot but feel a lively interest in the events now transpiring in our country. When I see the great principles of per— ,onal liberty and the rights of property cloven down by the men now running the machine of Government, "the an cient landmarks" of the Constitution "which our fathers set" removed, I feel like crying, in the language of Holy Writ, 'cursed be he that removeth r ' them. "And all the people shall say amen."—My earnest wish is to see these principles restored, My proclivities were formerly with the \Vhig party and my connection with that party was with a view of preserving these principles. I now find the Demo. cratic party alone the only party of pow. cr to sustain them. To be consistent I must therefore, act with that party so long as it adheres to these principles. Sbonld it he the general desire of the )emocratie party the Erie and Craw ford Senatorial District to confer the nomination upon IBC, I should regard it as a high compliment, and although its acceptance would be atteutted with much personal sacrifice, I should nut feel at ills rty to refuse. I must be permitted, however, to say that in my opinion there are oilier men better fitted than myself on whom the nomination should be con ferred. This question I suhmit to their better judgement. As t.. meeting and discussing before people the issue itnvolved in the corn- ing contest 1 cannot now speak di tizite ly. I will tnake every effort, GI - insistent with my engagements, to render you all the aid in my power. Very truly yours, Fearful Mortality among Color- Bearers The corresponden t of the S. Y. Tri bune relates the following respecting the Culoi.Bearers in the late battle at Jones- boro', Georgia To give a slight idea of the ferocity of the contest with the 14th Corps on the Ist it is only necessary to append the fol lowing facts:—The 14th and 30th Ohio, in Colonel Este's Brigade of Baird's Division, ser Color Bearers, three from each regiment. The 74th Indiana like wise lost two Color-Bearers. There were hundreds of instances of heroism among the rank and file, but I have not be,'n made familiar with each individual case, neither would your valuable space admit of so lengthy a communication. I desire to mention the conduct of Corporal Orville C. Young, of the 10th Kentucky Regiment, for he is deserving of something better than newspaper no toriety. This young man,after the color sergeant Was shot down by his side, seized the Stars and Stripes, and, amide perfect shower of bullets, ran in advance of his regiment and planted the colors upon the enemy's works. The 38th Ohio was also remarkably unfortupate in the loss of its color.bettrers. The color •sergeant and color corporal were both killed within ten minutes after going into the fight. Corporal Joseph E. War. ner, of Co. A, 14th Ohio, who was by special orders allowed to carry the col ors for meritorious conduct of the battle of Chickamauga, was shot down while planting our flag on the rebel ramparts. Corporal John Beely, of the same regi , ment, at once took charge Of the colors, and in a few minutes he received a severe wound which laid him low, and finally Corporal Snooks seized the tattered flag and held them on the works until the battle was over. Color Sergeant Ben ner, of the 74th Indiana, was shot down while bearing aloft the emblem he swore to protect, and how well he has fulfilled his sacred promise let this brief notice attest. As he rushed forward the front or his regiment wavered a little, not from tear, hut owing to a confusion in the lines. Sergeant Benner perceiving this, shouted as he waved his fin "Come on, boys, follow me!" What a noble re-- cord in this simple sentence. A HORRIBLE SITUATION.—Mrs. Evans, of Mercer county, C. W., a woman of 36, has had a difficulty in her stomach for several years. Lately phy— sicians have decided that the trouble is occasioned by a live and growing snake in the stomach. It has now grown so large that it distends the stomach so as to produce a bunch upon the oupidp. large as a quart bowl. Upon presing this bunch with the hand the reptile re— coils and uroduces great distress in the stomach. When meat or fish is being cooked in the room, if the snake is not satisfied with food, it rises up in throat, producing strangulation. When desir ing food, it manifests it by rising up in the throat. Physicians see - no jay' in which this snake can be removed with— out certain death to the woman. ,0„ Ax Emmett COMMISSION.—The Earl of Artie, is stated, has gone to the United States to offer himself It). the Con• fedtracy as d medium of comniunielition with the British.,.

This is attri— buted to the fact that a considerable part of the very large immigration to this 'country, in the last eighteen months, has gone westward to take up small farms at Cinvernment prices, and clear for'eultivation. CROPS IN KANEtes.—The Leavenworth Bulletin gathet.s .from gentrenimi 'Who have recently travelled through Kansas that there will be about half a crop of corn. The wheat crop had all been gathered, and was genepl,iy good. Sorghum looked finely, and the drought did not appear to affect it. 'steamboat Chauncey Vibbard made a trip on Thursday last, from New York to Albany, in the almost tutpro cecen ted qut9 k time of six hours and forty rainutks.

TIGHTNESS OF THE CHEST.— We sneeze. a slight, thin, sharp, ichorous Mptter COMPA from our noec ; we have heaviness of 'the head, great oppression o. the chest, some tightness, and a little tenderness in the region of the lungs.

BRANDRETH'S PILLS, Say two, four, or six, according - to age, sex and Constitution, must be taken.
