WRIGHT, Curwensville, A "VERY POINTED ARGUMENT. The Chicago Democratic Resolution of Sym pathy for the Soldier3 Dissected. Governor Brough, of Ohio, in a speech, a few days since, at Circleville, to the return ed one-huudrfed day men, showed up Demo cratic sympathy in the Chicago platform ibr the soldiers, thus : There is a body of men sereral hundred thousand strong, and with aruis in their hand., who are endeavoring to uphold the dear old flag, and to bring us peace by law ful means. There are four hundred thou sand men standing upon the fields oi the United States under its banner, read' to lay down their lives for the success of the Union cau-;e. Thre are i'our hundred thousand of those,- that thee scamps' at Chicago were angling after. It vrould not lo, therel'ort;, after passing resolutions of armistice, and calling back the army in disgrace, to let this pul go without a itltie sut'ar coating, it is notorious that the soldiers have good jaws to crack hard tack with, aiid gullets to get them down, but they could not swallow that pill without a little sugar coating ; so they must pa.vs a resolution complimenting t he soldiers. I want your papers to print this platform at the head of your columns to' the election. I want every man of you to read it, and to prevail on your neighbors to sit down and read the resolution in regard ir soldiers. Coolly consider its language. It is the most internal in u!t to a body of brave and noble men ever offered, even by the Southern Con federacy. For Davis himself has acknowl edged our men were brave and galiant. What do these men say? KcxoltftL That the sympathy of the Dein-. ocratic party is heartily and earnestly exten ded to the soldiers of our army who are aud have been on the field under the flag of our country, and. in the event of our attaining power, will receive all care, protection, re gard, and kindness that the brave soldiers of the ReptU lic have so nobly earned. II ow does it, read ? Ktmtloed, That we tender our thanks to the noble men in the army, &.c. N'nt a wiiril of it What, thpn? "That. vt tender our sympathies" and our pity to our oiuiei.' in iuc ueiu. itc uu not &ioi iiy- thvi... Te do not reioice jn their valiant Hpr.,1 in thf!ir victories. JSo. .AO mail ill that Chicago Convention ever rejoiced over a victory yet; nor any man tuat supports the Chicago platform was ever found kind ling a bonfire over a victory won by your arms. Cheers. This is not a bare asser tion. They do not rejoice in the victories won. No ; but they '"sympathize" with the sold ers who are standing under thz old flag, and on the bartie-i.-l.'. Well, they miijht as well sympathize with horses that stood on the battle-field for the horses would care as much about it as the soldiers ; and the mules, too. 1 don't know but the mules would have kicked up their heels at their sympa thies for the soldiers too. The language of that resolution is simply impudent; it is simply abuse. It is simply cowardly, and means disgrace. With the outward tongue it speaks in accents of affec tion, but inwardly of the traitor. "We sym pathize with our soldiers." Troy are not then in the glorious cause. We don't re joice with them that their patriotism called them forth to uphold that banner. We don't sympathize with the braves that have gone forth to die. We don't glory in anything they do. We don't say their cause is just. We thank them. We uphf pity them. Then what ? Don't trust me for these words, for although they are ground into my memory, and burned into my brain, I won't ask you to trust to my memory. "In the event of our coming into power, they (the soldiers) will receive all '.he care, protection, and regard that the soldiers of the Repub lic have earned." If they come into power that is what they pre after they will pro tect and send them to their homes, to sift no more by taking up arms against their South ern brethren. They shan't be runished be cause they dared to fight Jeff. Davis. They shan't be put into prison there shan't any harm come upon them they will protect them and send them out of danger. We want their votes, and we must be kind to them. And as the devil promised what did not lielons to him and what he could not get to Christ," these tellows promise their pro tection ; and as that distinguished gentle man was cast out ot heaven into the lower resirns, a similar fate awaits the Chicago fellows. Look at the naked infamy attempt ed to be practised on the people by the pas sage of this resolution. They want the or dinal reader to suppose that they intend to compliment the soldiers for doing what thev have done. But they don't mean any such thing. If they had meant it, why could they not have said, uWe tender our thanks to our brave soldiers who have been uphold ing our flag against armed rebellion ?" They could not say it, because the traitors did not mean it ' ' .McCLELLAN'S ECONOMY. In his letter of acceptance General Mc CLELLAN speaks of "restoring economy in public expenditures," in the event of hise lection to the Presidency. It is to be re gretted that he did not practice economy when he was commander-in-chief. All who have visited the army know that Mc Clellan was the most extravagant (reneral that ever commanded the army of the I o tomac. If he had been continued in com mand till now, the nation would be bank- tt; Rumnpan t.rin. some vears since. engendered a desire to ape royalty. It .will be remembered that one reason assimed for inaction at Manassas was that it required considerable time to procure maim uoi c .i. innortai-d wamitis. ihmkot a General waiting for months in order to pro- cure match Horses ior nis iraiBuu.. wagons to move against an enemy ! aa tbi ripd economy? ASSUMPTION OF THE EEBEL DEBT. The assumption of the enormous rebel debt is one of the conditions of General Mc Clellax's plan of making peace with the rebels. This idea has cropped out at differ ent times and in various places. It was put forth prominently 1j3' the so-called rebel com missioners at N iagara Falls, and it is known to be entertained by Democratic leaders gen erally. This is but natural. Augusts Del moxt, who is Chairman of the National Democratic Committee, and was one of the leading spirits at Chicago, is the agent in this country of rebel bond-holders abroad. The crushing of the rebellion would of course prove to them au immense mouied loss. They consequently look to him, by hook or by crook, to secure them against such a ca lamity. Mr. Bki.moxt can do this only through his political position. To make it a Democratic measure, with the hope that his instrument, McClellax, may succeed, is his only prospect. It is, therefore, apart of the Democratic rebel plan to assume the debt of the South a nice little sum of some fifteen hundred millions to go into the pock ets of foreign creditors, many of whom have done their utmost to destroy American com merce by fitting out rebel privateers. Oth ers have helped the rebels by building ships to run the blockade, carrying in supplies of all kinds and bringing out cotton. They are Mr. Belmont's friends he is their agent and at the same time the patron of McClel lax and the leading spirit in the Democrat ic party. What do the people of this coun try think of this plan for paying the rebel debt for enriching our enemies, after we have spent so freely of our own blood and treasure to put down this wicked rebellion? SIGNIFICANT FACTS. We shall not be surprised if the South a gree to the abandonment of slavery pnonrr than the Democratic party. Even now, General Can NX, who fought and bled for the rebellion, is an emancipationist and in the Union, while M"Clellax, Seymoi u. Vallanimgham, Wood, Woodward, VoumiEF.s. SIakres, ajid other such '"ex pounders of the Constitution," are the con servators of slavery, and more or less dispo sed to take sides with the rebellion. We shall not wonder, seeing that the sens of rebel planters and the increasing ranks ,ofi .... ii uku ail. 5U "tlJOl OCti uiy opposed to the resurrection of slavery, if the Democratic party yet learns its bitterest lesson from those who were formerly reb els. The moral doctrine of the Democracy is incontinently absurd, and far Iwihind the age. It is strdnge that, with all its partial ity, for the Southern side of politics, the Democratic party has not yet recommended to the South the auiq method-' of "concili ation and forbeanmce" which it has urged u pon the North ! THE DIEECT EOAD TO PEACE. The only road to peace, the only direct route, an I safe to travel, is that taken by our armies. It will surely lead to peace in the shortest time, and is the only one loyal men can take.- W'e hear men talking of peace, as though it was settled that all Mr. Lincoln has to do is to stop lighting and go to negotiating, as though the rebels were he beseeching to come back and were waiting for an opportunity to do so. So far from this being the case, every declaration from: Richmond is to the effect that the South will not consent to an armistice, and does not desire peace without independence. It is folly to talk of peace with the South un less you are prepared to accept her terms by granting her independence. It is perfectly evident, therefore, that, there is but one direct road to peace., which is the one taken by thr: armies. e mean an honorable peace. It is true that peace can be obtained by surrendering to the reb els, and the first "step would be an armis tice. AU the talk to the contrary is politi cal clap-trap in the interest of the rebels. The Bombardment of Charleston. It is reported, through deserters who re certly came into our lines, that the city is suffering to a very considerable and serious extent under our present bombardment. The 1 00-pounder rifles have now attained the proper range, and throw shells two blocks beyond Calhoun street, in the business heart of the city. The ranjre of the SO-pnunders was not to reach enough far beyond the"bum ed district," and the present 100-pounders 1 , . 1 1 1 . were suostnuicu wiin uiaiwu sueuc.-. Their range is greater, and the effect produ ced by the explosion of their shells is im measurably greater. They have already de stroyed a number of buildings, and are rap idly demolishing others in the neighborhood making it decidedly an undesirable place for quiet-loving men to transact business in. The rebels have 23,000 men at work on the defences of the city, rapairing and strength ening old works and constructing new ones. They are preparing for the day of trial thoroughly ana as well as they may. How to Help the Soldiers. An officer in Sheridan's army writes home to his friends : "Fight against the Copper headscrush them and by so doing you icill greatly encourage the army and make us perfectly sure of success, and that a speedy one." He is not the only one who has thst feeling. Said Gen. Hooker, in his speech at the Union meeting in Brooklyn last week, 'Tour victories are as dear to us in the front as the victories at the front are dear to yon. The victories of last Fall were hailed with as much joy and as much enthu eiasui in the army as t hough they had been achieved by otherar mi es." . ' TnE Chicago Tlatforra asserts that the war has proved a "failure." The opinion ot Jeff. Davis just at present on that point would be testimony decidedly more valua ble. If the Union war has failed, pray tell ui what is the Bebel ptwret ? THE PAETY 0E SUEEENDEE. ' The copjerheads and Democrats are pro posing, in the coming Presidential campaign, to conjure with the word "Peace." Availing themselves of the hardships, discontents and high prices incident to the war, they hope to secure a sulficent support for their can didate by spreading the impression that we cannot have peace under Mr. Lincoln, and by promising it, more or less explicitly, un der some other candidate. The plan is well devised, and the fathers of it probably could riot place themselves on any stronser basis. But it would be a pity, indeed, if any such wretched sophistry could succeed. There is no man in the country, probably, more hear tily desirous of peace than Mr. Lincoln unless it be General Grant or General Sher man. The loyal people of the country are, and, throughout the war, have been eairer for peace. What then is n eant by the cop perhead or Democrat when he calls himself a friend of peace? He means, if he means anything in particular, that he is in favor ot' conceding to the rebels the right of seces sion, or of laying down arms like the king of Denmark and making such terms as we can with the enemy. Mr. Lincoln, on the other hand, is in favor of conqiellitig the re Ms to lay down their arms, and of forcing them to make such terms as I hey can with us. One advocates peace through surren der, the other advocates peace through vic tory; Both are peace men, seeking a com mon object by the use of different means. If the party of Mr. Lincoln is to be called the war-party designating it by the means which it advocates to secure peace then the copperheads and Democrats should be called, not the peace party but the surrender party. COPPEEHEAD THEEATS. True to their belief that the American people are conquered by the rebels, and are craven enough to ask for terms, the Copper head orstors and papers hope to frignten those people still more by threatening them with civil war at home if the Copperhead candidate for President is not elected. This khid of talk comes naturallj'' from those who wish to compromise with men who began civil war four years ago because their candidate was defeated. It comes na turally from those who belive that the States ctti2er?s of the United States can not i" ced to submit to their Government. It comes naturally from those whose reliance is not upon the intelligence but the ignorance of the people; from those who do not pre vail by reasonable argument, but by appeals to the basest passions. It comes naturally from a "Conservatism" which burns orphan asylums and massacres men because they are poor and defenceless. But those gentry sadly deceive themselves if they suppose the loyal people of this country are so deeply sunken in degradation as to surrender their right of voting freely to any threats of tHs kind. It is precisely because the Copperheads are capable of using such menaces in a political canvass that they will find themselves excluded from power by the people. For there is not a fool in the land w ho d?es not see, that, if they threat en violence when they find themselves in the minority, there is no enormity of which they might not be guilty if they found themselves actually in the majority. Harper's Weekly. An Original Speculation in Gold. The New i'ork lst states that certain merchants and capitalists, known as suppor ters of the Chicago ticket, are engaging in an attempt to forestall the gold market, and raise the price of gold ; and that they have confided the ojeratioii to a prominent bro ker, furnishing him with the necessary cap ital. .The iWsays: "A correspondent, who gives us this information, sends 113 also the names of the prominent persons in this combination, and asks us to warn all con cerned, that exposure awaits them if their plot is carried out."

Iinftsman' s journal CLEARFIELD, PA., OCT. 12, 1664. VAGAEIES OF PEACE DEM00EATS. An old clergyman of Philadelphia used to say of certain members of his congregation who continually made trouble, that "they served God as if the devil were in them." Perhaps a similar remark might not be inap plicable to our present peace Democracy. Not only have its members been noted afore time for a truculent disposition when the oc casion afforded to sufficient reason bullying foreign States and assaulting weaker ones but even at the present time they are nei ther larnb-like nor amiable towards their own countrymen. They mutter threats of forci ble resistance to election results, if the ma jority should go against them, and even men ace Mr. Lincoln's life if the people's choice should fall on him. In fact, these men of peace are extremely belligerent towards all but traitors. To loy al men these pacificators present a face of flint, aud are savage, unrelenting, vitupera tive. The3' have no wprd of approval for patriotic services, however great ; no chari table consideration for our rulers, struggling against a mighty conspiracy ; scarcely a word of cheer for gallant soldiers fighting for the nation's existence. No ; to secure their ap probation men must go over to the traitor ous enemy, as so many of these same peace Democrats have already done, and fight a gainst the noble republic which nurtured them. Then these sucking-doves can yield fair words and man apologies for every deed of violence, perfidy or murder, which in oth er men would be stamped as hideous and in defensible. Provided men are only traitors, then are they transformed to chivalrous gen tlemen. They may fire canister shot on drowning sailors, as in the White river ; may combatants fleeing from their burning dwel lings, as at Lawrence; or put to death a sur rendered jgarrison, as at Fort Pillow. Few and gentle are the comments of peace Dem ocrats on enormities like these; though for slight excesses on the part of loyal troops, justifiable, perhaps, under irritating circum stances, or else unavoidable as the fiery char iot of war sweeps forward amid smoke and confusion, our gentle-hearted friends of re bellion are overwhelmed with indignation, and unpack their hearts w ith words of bit terest invective. In the eyes of a peace Democrat all things are beneficent or wise if performed by trai tors. Not only may these do cruel acts, and have them justified by our lenient censors, but they may perform stupid or foolish deeds, and have them deemed patterns of states manship. Their currency may go down to five cents on a dollar, and still their sympa thizing friends avert their looks and aver in counterpoise that Union loans are not at par in gold. - The little molehill of demerit or deficiency looms up to Himalayan altitude, when loyalty is arraigned for trial, but per jury, repudiation and bankruptcy are things diminutive and invisible if only imputable to southern rebels. " Their crimes, their boastings and their ridieulotfs failures, are lightly touched on by their peaceful allies here. They descant ominously and prophet ically on our long delays in taking Richmond, but utter no words of marvel that their south ern friends have never entered Philadelphia nor Boston. They only wish we would forget the names of New Orleans, Vicksburg and Port Hud son ; Nashville, Chattatjooga, Atlanta, and a hundred other strongholds wreted from rebellion. They search the map in vain to see the foothold on our soil which traitors were to make, and which they could not. The disappointed peace man seeks a solace by declaring the traitors got the victories, though they slipped continually backward for convenience sake. The rebels grow stron ger by concentration and the loss of their re sources, and will reach their maximum in that respect when Charleston alone remains to them. Next to Calhoun and his disciples, these same peace advocates were the chief inciters of the present war. They in fact invited the traitors to begin it, who otherwise, with all their self-conceit, would scarcely have as saulted us with arms. Yet now that the bloody contest wanes to its conclusion, our inconsistent Marplots would interpose their schemes of armistice and withdrawal, to give the rebels breathing time to protract the war for an indefinite period. This is the precious sample of their wis-1 dom and forecast which is to induce their countrymen to confer on them the mrStKge- ment of national affairs this the roodo of pacification which is to heal the national wounds and bring" ua repose and safety And to cap the climax of their wondrous irra tionality, even whilst they sing thse dulcet notes they intermit the melody to talk infu riatcly of northern insurrection as a meant of enforcing peace. They would desolate our free communities to match the picture of southern devastation, and bring home to northern hearthstones the woes which south era treason has inflicted in the slave States. Such are the absurdities and contradic tions of this unnatural party, which still u surps the Democratic name, though leagued with traitors who repudiate democracy. Wil ful, perverse, and maddened by party spirit, they rush upon political destruction, for they misjudge their own countrymen, who can never be deceived by falsehood and sophis try so gross as the peace Democracy must use. Slavery, rebellion and every species of treason are doomed to destruction by tha popular fiat, that the great republic may live. Forty Million Seven-Thirties Subscribed. The subscriptions to thi3 popular loan ar now over forty million dollars, and they con tinue to come in at the rate of about a mil lion a day. The public are satisfied that there are no other investments so profitable as United States securities. While 1 .arly all the hundreds of miscellaneous Blocks sold in the New York market have been de clining for several weeks (ia many instances twenty-five per cent), Government stock! have'remained firm ; and while lenders loan very sparingly, and at high rates, on the best mercantile paper, they have plenty of money to lend on Government paper at as low rates as ever. While the Government needs the people's monej, and pays for it liberally, it offers the highest possible con--sideration besides, and that is safety. Se advertisement, in another column. Another Democrat for Lincoln, nox. David S. Coddixgton. of New York, has written a letter in reply to an in vitation to address a public meeting, in which '"Your lnvifationto'speatis received, a. severe cold will prevent me. But neither cold nor heat can freeze or melt out of this country the belief that the Chicago Conven tion, has left a Democrat no chance between Jefferson Davis with all his crimes, and Abraham Lincoln with all his faults. The Yallandiehani platform is merely an attempt of the Richmond authorities to run the blockade of the Northern ballot boxes, with the Union flag floating from thefirst section; so it does from the Florida and lallaltassce, until you get near enough for them to hoist the Confederate rag and scuttle the Union ship, while we, robbed of our compasses and stripped of our national consistency, are to be landed upon some bleak dogma of ego tistical Statesrights and universal anarchy." POLITICS IN THE AEMY. One of the grievances of which the cop perheads are constantly complaining, is in reference to the introduction of politics in the army. W would like to know how the introduction of politics in the army is to be avoided, while incidents like the following are of daily occurrence. Sergeant Matthew Ryan, of the New York One Hundred and Twenty-second, writes to a friend at Syra cuse, that during the skirmishing of our Re giment and other troops at Opequan Creek, when our party would drive the rebels or gain any advantage, they would cheer lusti ly, and the name of Lincoln being taken by our troops, the rebels set up equally enthu siastic cheering for McClellan. The cop perhead leaders ot the .North 1-ave them selves to blame for the introduction of pol itics in the armv, according to the account just quoted. Ge.v. Dix. This sterling patriot, because he declined to accept the Union nomination for Governor of New York, has Wen claim ed by the Copperheads for McClellan. Go ing to Sandusky to catch piratical Copper heads, he takes occasion to make a little speech, wherein he says : "I can have no part in any political movement of which the Chicago platform is a basis." That seems explicit enough. The latest Peace Commissioner, and one of th j most improved pattern, i Phil Sher idan. He fights and defeats the rebels just as if the war wasn't a "failure," and as if the Chicago platform had never been writ-, ten. He must be taught the necessity of. there will be more wailing and disappoint ment than comes from rebeldom. Referred n t r General Cutler having been asked if the soldies would vote for Gen. McClellan on the Chicago Platform, replied : Wrhen, the army Is ready to ak Jeff. Davis' pardon for" having fought h m; when-it forgets Wads-" worth and McPherson and the hosts of, oth ers that have fallen : when it is ready to turn round and fight under Jeff. Davis, then you may expect it to vote that ticket and not before. " , Gettixg Shaky. They have heard from Sheridax in England. The effect was an immediate decline in the Rfbel loan of nine per cent. It is as good as McCxel LAX stock here. The last' phase of the armistice question 13 presented by fighting Phil. Sheridan.IIe has agreed that if Early runs so fast that he can't catch him. he won't fight him. . Is the war a "failure?" For rarticulirs aelc Grant, Sheridan, Sherman andFarrapxt!
