;The 'election h Id in the State of

of several, thousand for. the Democratic
cause. This was, bf itself , . moat signifi

is the Most significa , t and decisive po

habits, since' 1852,1 when Gen. Pierce
carried all of' Net England, except
Massachusetts and; Vermlnt. This
splendid triumph in 'Connecticut renders
it absolutely-certain putt she, at the Pres
idential election; together with New
Hampshire' and RhOe Island will cas

though calumniated,. McClellan.
As for little Delaviare . she has spoken
even more emphatic than, Connecti

would make a most valiant eoldier
Democratic Meeting at Elizabeth.
The Democracy of Elizabeth and vi•
cinity turned oul in Lull force yesterday.
The meeting was organized at 2 o'clock
by the election of the following Off i cers
Captain Joseph Simpler, of Rostraver,
President: A. S. Morgan, Rostraver,
James Anderon, Webster, John Flana
gan, Rostraver, Thos. Farrah, Eliza
beth, 4andrew Bedell, Jefferson, Joseph
Bennett, Rostraver, Col. James Scott,
Elizabeth, and David Douglass, Hos
traver, Vice Presidents. Secretaries W.
C. Guffy, Greensburgh, Hortentas Low
ry, Rostraver, Dr. Samuel Fife, West
Elizabeth, Daniel McCurdy, Elizabeth.
and J. Scott, Elizabeth. The people
were earnestly and forcibly addressed
by J. H. Hopkins, our brave and drivel ,
rous young candidate for congressional
henorS, who spoke nearly two hours,
holding his large audience in earnest and
pleased attention with his eloquence.
A distinguished orator from Mononga
hela city, followed in a most cogent and
telling address occupying also nearly
two hours, till the hour of adjournment.
But when the Democracy of Elizabeth
is once "raised" it is in earnest, and the
people again assembled at 7 o'clock, and
were addressed by Mr. John H. Bailey,
in one of his characteristic battle-axe
speeches, and was followed by Mr. Hop
kins. Daring the evening Mr. C. B.
Kenny read an excellent poem appro
priate to the present political contest.
In the evening as in the afternoon, the
utmost good order and decorous conduct
everywhere prevailed, which' is in itself
proof of the increase and diffusion of De
mocratic principles, and the visitors
were very agreeably impressed with
ware—where raili
sway these two
efeated at her late
eling for Me Olel-
Elizabeth and' its people. Their ho sp
tality was duly appreciated
Senator , Cowan.
OF.
This distinguished Republican Sena
tor has been thrown overboard by the
organ of that party in this part of the
State. The Gazette says:
"The Copperheads are welcome to claim Sen
ator Cowan as an accession tq their
ysnks.
We srsglad to know that he no longer shame
to belong to us "Re went out front us became§
ha mut not of us," and we hope naves to be
troub ed with him again,"
So you see Mr. Copperhead .C9Wail
what it - is to differ with the radical pol
icy of Mr. • Lincoln. Senator Cowan
never made a speech in fa* of the De
mocracy, his only offence consists in
condemning the extravagant usurps,
tion and gross violation of the Consti
tution by Lincoln for this he racist be
punished and from what we know bf the
man, he is not unwilling to ,accept it.
Is it not about time this slang about
Copperheads ceased.

This tall bully, when the reb.sllion i
broke out, was: one 'of the fiery Aboli
tionists *lb declared that ft would not
last "sixty days';''' he, accordingly r ip,
order to be in at the killing, raised a reg
iment, hi order to share in the glory of
crashing - treason. He started for the
tented field, but when he reached Balti
more with his regiment the news of the
first battle of Bull Run had just reached
-that city: 'The doughty General Inane

When this Colortel Pluck started for the

persuaded himself that he was a great
man, and swelled accordingly like a
shirt in a high wind. BUt when the
disaster of Ball Run met him in Balti
more, his courage, like that of Bob
A.crea, began to Ooze out his fingers
ends, and instead of desiring to fight
rebels, he soothed his spirit for yen-.
gence by vigorous attacks upon the con
tents of Barnum's larder. And, oh! the
intrepid prowess he exhibited -in his
new department. He marched to the
assault upon a roast, a bake or boil with
the gallantry displayed by Ney at
Waterloo, and exhibited all the tenacity
of the great rebel Stonewall Jackson lii

After thus luxuriating in Baltimore for
several days, this monstrous humbug
and poltroon abandoned his command,
and returned to the United States Sen
ate; since then he has been engaged in
the business of proving McClellan "a
traitor and coward;" and now, out
here, in Western Pennsylvania, he bind
ten about fighting, just like any other
milk-sop who considers himself out of
danger.

HARTOOIID, OCi. 4.
The result of the town elections in
this state arc highly' gratifying to the
Democrats. At the rate of increase in
the Democratic vote, the State is good
for McClellan. Bridgeport elected the
Democratic ticket throughout for the
first time in seven.years. Everywhere
the Republican Camlidates have been
elected, the Democrats have gained
largely on their vote of last year.
Besides BridgepOrt, the following
towns were carried by the Democrats:
Derby, Middletown, Waterbury, Water
ford, Glastenbury, Eist Lynne, Preston,
Wallingford. Later returns will show
still larger Democratic gains. Connecti
cut is all right.

Being desirous of entering the canvass
in active support of Gen. McClellan tor

deeming my present relations with the

tender you my resignation as an officer

I wish here to state that I have been a
War Democrat from the beginning of

the desire as well as of the ability of Mr.
Lincoln to carry the country through the

paired, I have determined, to sacrifice of
ficial position to aid in an humble way
n bringing About a change of rulers.
I wish here to make acknowledgment
for the uniform kindness and, courtesy
extended to me on all occasions, and
beg to remain . • .

THE WAR
On Saturday and Sunday a heavy
rain fell at Petersburg, which made the
mud thick around the camps of the con
tending armies. Birney and Weitzel re
mained in their intrbnched camp on the
New Market road, eight miles from
Richmond, and two miles east of the
James. The enemy's gunboat.on the
river kept up a continual shelling, whici
prevented any approach of the Federa
troops to the river bank. The recon
n
oisance made by Kautz's cavalry on
Friday, was supported by two brigades
of infantry. They marched east to the
Charles City road, and then north along
it to a point two miles from Richmond.
The enemy was found in force, and the
reconnoisance returned, having lost 30
men. The position held by Birney and
Weitzel is four miles southeast of Cha
pin's Bluff, and on Chapin's Farm.
Warren and Wilcox, under Meade,
are still in their intrenched camp, two
miles west of the Weldon Railroad, and
near the Vaughn 'road. On Saturday
and Sunday the heavy rains put a stop
to operations. A dash of Confederate
cavalry upon Meade's works on Satur
day, and its repulse, was the only move
ment. The Federal loss was about a
hundred. No prisoners were captured.
It is now reported that in Friday's bat
tle, Meade lost two thousand men, in
stead of six hundred—one thousand be
ing prisoners.
Huntsville, Alabama, was summoned
to surrender on Saturday last, but the
garrison held out and after a sharp con
test the Confederates retreated. his re

south of the Chattanooga. Sherman's
railroad is cut south of Chattanooga,
and we have no news from Atlanta.

istration has no authority in
whielatlbes not equally possess ln-si?e
ry state np to the Canada frontiefi`4lt
free elections, and the freedonkofAis
eussion which they pre-suppose, are sup
pressed in one state because Mr. Lin
coln's views of party advantage require
it, the only guarantee which -These pre
clone rights bairn in any state' is Mr.
Lincoln's opinion that in some states
party success does not require their ex
tinction.- When the Constitittioff and
laws no longer ;esti-sin him ;iwhen :the
security and perpetnlty of his'own pow
er aie hie only rule of action, we all hold
our liberties by his forbearapce. The
case of Maryland, then, is our case ; if
we stand as unprotesting spectators of
her enslavement we are ourselyes slaves,
and, what is more, we deserve our fate.
We are now close upon a presidential
election on which more depends than
any election ever before held. We de
mand, not in any spirit of idle 'vaporing,
but, as we trust, with the intrepid deter.
mi - nation of freemen, that, in this elee- ,
tion, voting shall be free; and what is
of equal importance, that the discussion
by which men and measures are canvas
sed and voting is made intelligent, shall
be also free. We believe, nay, we
know, that this is the sentiment and de
termination of the Democratic party.
If we are beaten on a fair vote, after free
discussion, we shall all, as good citizens
swallow our regrets and submit. But
we are very sure that we express the
unanimous resolve of the party, when
we say that if a fair election is not per
mitted; if we drekiterborne by the exer
cise of unconstitutional authority, we
shall not submit. We have waited and
suffered, we have repressed our feelings,
and mastered our indignation, 'because
the Constitution gives us a peaceful mode
of deposing unfit rulers in the 'election
which precedes the expiration of their
term. But if that remedy is taken from
us, republican institutions will have
perished; and it will be the first business
of the country—a business to which alj
other considerations will be held subor
dinate—to create republican institutions
anew
Under the sense of respoitsibilty
which, Once Mr. Lincoln's arbitrary
measures commenced, we have never
ceased to feel as an organ, and, accord
ing to our measure, a guide of public
opinion; under this sense of responsi—
bility which we have: felt in 'offering
council to our countrymen in grave
junctures, we have always held that we
should go 'forward to meet etecutive
usurpations, and attack them on the
frontier. It is there that we can give
them battle to the greatest advantage.

their own soil. If he was beaten in

be safe. If he got secure possession of
Maryland, he would have established a
base of operations that would imperil
the whole North. We would, use the
sime stiategy in repelling the despotic
invasion by Lincoln as in repelling a
military invasion by Lee. There is no
place where the political battle in de
fense of tree speech, a free press, and
(r..iaera.ions can he feught with so great

Caution
one of the favorite tricks of the Abo

propriate to 'party purpotes, the victories
achieved by our gi.llant armies. In the

equally important, the political move

m , nts in Maine and Vermont and the
Federal triumphs gained by the Wittier%
of the Republic. This claim is an in
sult to the brave men of all partiet) who
are now in the field fighting a common
enemy. It is because they have taken
this unwarrantable position, that so
much discredit is now thrown upon all
the statements made of military success
es published by order of the War
Rutment. The public now know that
these political trickers have falsified the
record, in order to further their own
bate partisan purposes, and that they
will continue to deceive and mislead the
people, if by so doing they can hope to
g•iin any votes for their sinking cause.

so. Beware of them.
Refugaes from Atlanta
Two families, from Atlanta direct,
pissed through this city yesterday' on
their way to Canada. The two men
were in partnership there and carrying
on the business of iron mining, paper
making, and doing also a commission
business. They 'had been f irly pros.
pered up to the time when Hood arrived
in May last, which nearly, put an end to
all business.
These two gentlemen were of the
wealthiest citizens there, one wing in a
brick the other in a stone house. They
were of the South and synipathized with
their people. Yet they say that, could
they be allowed to come back into the
Union with their rights restored, they
would gladly do so. But as long as the
present policy of the United States Gov
ernment is persisted In, they have no
desire to become citizens of it. They
cannot and be honest. Such is the uni
versal sentiment of the people of Atlanta
and vicinity. They have yielded with a
good grace to the sad necessities of war,
have no fault to find with Gen. Sherman,
and speak in the highest terms of Col.
Minds' of Philadelphia, who took pos
session of one of their houses. He asked
permission of the lady of the house bit:
fore hoisting the American flag over her
residence. The request was readily
granted. The above are some of the
facts we gained from the people in the I
brief interview we had with them yes

Collision on the Lake
The Cleveland Herald has the partie-
Wars of a fatal collision last Friday night,
between. the propeller Ndistaburg:ildi
the schooner Snowbird, rcsalting in the:
sinking of the former in a few minutes.
About half past eleven o'clock; When,
about eight or ten miles off .Fairpoint,
Capt. Tyler saw a green light towards
shore, and supposed. it . to be. the star—
board light of a propeller passing up the
Lake on the inside. The Ogdensburgh's
helm was but a little to the starboard,
and he hauled out a little in the Lake.
In a few minutes red and green . lights
were seen, and Capt. Tyler discovered it
was a vessel rapidly approaching him., •
The propeller was headed still more out
in the Luke:but the vessel changedker
course in the same direction, and imme
diately struck the propeller on . the star
board bow ,t and she immediately [com
menced sinking. The passengers and
crew took to the boats and reached Fair
port in safety.
It will be remembered that a few years
since, the Ogdensbnrg collided with the
steamer Atlantic, not many miles from
where the collision of Friday night oc
curred, by which one of the most awful
catastrophies occurred that has ever
taken
.place on our lakes. Now the
Ogdensburgh is sent to the bottom by a
similar cense, but fortunately without
the loss of a single life, , so far as known.
Railroad Property .Destroyed,
Surgeon Carpenter, medical director
of this district, accompanied by a rebel
flag of truce, arrived here last night to
procure medical supplies for the wound-.
ed of both sides.
The rebels lost • about two hundred
kil ed and six hundred to eight hundred
wounded in the assault ou the fort.
Major Wilson, Third Missouri militia,
commandant of the post, and'eapt. Dln
ger, Forty seventh Missouri, were cap.
tured by the rebels and were badly
treated.
Maj . o.r Walker, who bravely defended
Potosr,..and several other persons, were
murdered by Col. D. Blood, alter the
surrender of that place.
Nothing reliable has been heard from
Gen. Ewing. The Iron Mountain Rail=
ruad is pretty badly damaged, and at
least two months will be-required to re
pair It.
There is no news from Franklin to
day.
The two brigades of the enrolled mil
itia of this district have gone to Laclede
station, on the Pacific railroad, eight
miles from here.
It is understood that Gen. Rosecrans
will take the .field to-day.

The Great Battle
It is said that some of General Me-
Clellan's friends do not intend to vote
at the election on Tuesday, thinking
that they will accomplish their intention
of supporting their favorite by votingat
the Presidential election. Never was
there a greater mistake made than such
a course of action would be. No true
friend of General McClellan, no one
who really desires his election, will re
frain from voting on Tuesday next •fo'r
the Democratic ticket. It is just as im
portant for General McClellan's success,
that his friends thould vote the Demo
cratic ticket on that day, as: it is. far '
them to vote in November. He will,
in fact, be injured more by their staying
away from the polls then, than
,by a
vote for the Abolition candidate' hereati
ter. "Nothing is so successful as suc—
cess," is a witty and true apophthegm.
By giving a strong vote on thejocal arid
Congressional tickets, we ensure the
election of General McClellan., We
thus not only encourage ourselveS, but
we depress our opponents. Again, we
repeat, that it isof the greatest import.

welfare of the country demands the

The Muller Murder C ase.
[From the London Times, Sept.
At the close of the examination .of
Muller at Bow street on Monday, and of his remov4l to the Station House,
the prisoner spoke very bitterly of the
evidence given by. e hhe cabman, Mat—
thews. He said that Matthews had
given the evidence about the hat falsely;
that there was not one word of truth in
it; that Matthews knew that Muller had
worn out the hat that he (Matthews) had
bought for him long ago, and that the
rim on one side was broken. Muller
further said that Matthews gave his evi
dence out of spite, because he (Muller)
had threatened to give Matthews brother
in-law into custody some time since for
theft of some of :Miler's tldngs.
On this subject some very important
information has been obtained by In—
spector Tanner, which will, it is be
lieved, supply the only required link in
the chain of evidence upon which a
committal for trial will be asked for by
the prosecution. One of the shopmen
formerly in the service of Messrs. Dig.
ante & Co., the hatters, is stated-tohave
beep found, who distinctly remembers
exiling the hat found in Muller's box ,t 0
the late Mr. Briggs, and further-Wei:la
des it by a peculiar alteration made in
the lining, as it did not quite fit the un
fortunate gentleman at thb time he pur
chased it.
ON Wednesday night, the . timbers of a
bridge on the Terre Haute, Alton, and
St. Louis railroad, a few miles west of
Shelbyville, were sawed nearly through,
apparently with the expectation that the
next train, which contained about eight
hundred soldiers, *ould break through.
The train containing the soldiers passed
over safely, but the next, a freight train,
broke through, killing the engineer and
badly scalding the fireman.
