THE ELECTION IN CLEASTIELD.
There is much, in the result in Clearfield
county over which the Union men can con
gratulate themselves, notwithstanding the
seeming large majority against them. Last
fall the Democrats' polled 243 votes. On
Tuesday their vote wan or just fifteen
of a loss. Our vote la.-t tali was 1 521, while
on Tuesday it was 1210. or thrre hundred
and ftfttcu of a. loss. Thus, while the Dem
ocrats have nimply held their own, not gain
ing a single vote, we have lost three hun
dred and fifteen a loss ca.-ily understood
when we remember how many men have
gone from tLL county to the army during
the past year. The soldiers vote, therefore,
if obtained, will reduce Mr. Dicier s vote far
below that of Judge Woodward last fall.
Indeed, Mr. Bigler lias very little in the re
sult over which to loar t. In his own coun
ty, where Le is l.est known, he hat not led
hit ticket a single vote. He has got the
bare, meagre vote of his party, and nothing
more. He Las votes, while the rest of
the ticket ranges from 2 14 1 to 2470.
In view of the fact that the draft had
just been made and the notices served and
of the unscrupulous and herculean efforts of
the opposition, the result, is all that could
be expected. They resorted to every possi
ble expedient to make vote?. On the morn
ing of the election, they circulated through
out the county the unmitigated and Larc
faced falsehood, that General Grant had
been defeated at Richmond and his army al
most cut to pieces that Sherldau was re
treating up the Valley before Lougatreet,
and that Sherman's communications had
been successfully cut, in consequence of
which he would be compelled to abandon
Atlanta! Through these lying stories of
disaster, they expected to largely increase
their vote. Moreover, every deserter lurk
ing in the county was escorted to the polls,
and voted. In this town, the notorious
Lan.-lerry. who has already attempted to
commit murder by shooting at the officers
sent to arrest him, was brought to the polls,
through back alleys, under a guard of seven
men armed with revolvers, and voted ! In
Jordan township, John M'Xeal a Republi
can, was stoned away from the polls ; and
Deter Summers, Jonathan Mays, and a third
man whose name we did not learn, all TJ
nion men, were warned that if they came to
vote they would be beaten or killed. These
are a few specimens of the manner in which
they attempted to swell their vote. Yet af
ter all, they have fallen fifteen short of their
vote at the last election, and have only suc
ceeded in covering themselves with ignomi
ny and disgrace.
'6w, if our friends throughout the coun
ty will do their duty, from this until the
Eighth day of November if they will go
to work in earnest to rally, arouse, and en
lighten the people and above all to get out
the whole vote with the aid of the sol
diers in the field, we will in all probability
carry Clearfield county against McClellan.
One more united and vigorous effort and
the work is accomplished.
M'OLELLAN ON THE STUMP.
Little Mac is out on an electioneering tour.
He lias been up ill Connecticut lie made
a speech at Hartiord the other day. We
sappo.se his expenses arc paid by the Bel
mont Committee. The Ilothchild's, for
whom the Jew Delmont is Ager.t, hold 400
millions of the Confederate loau, and can
not only afford to pay the little Napoleon's
expenses, but to expend two or three hun
dred millions besides, and then make money.
They bought their Confederate bonds at ten
cents on the dollar. McClellan's election
would secure the payment of the entire Re
bel war debt out of the National Taeasury.
"Why, therefore, should not Belmont work,
anxiously to secure it? Header, if you want
to vote for a party that will pay rebels for
murdering j-our father, son, brother, or
friend, vote for George B. McClellan !
Roger Brooke Taney, Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court of the United States, died
in Washington on Wednesday evening Oct.

UP GUABDS AST) AT THEM !
There being no general ticket, the election
in thl State on Tuesday was necessarily af
fected to a large extent, by local questions
the personal relations and jealousies of
the various District and County candidates.
Nor could our vote be got out. Bat, nev
ertheless, the result is sufficiently decisive,
and effectually destroys the last, lingering j
hope of the friends and eupporters of the I
i r- i tiM: i ..t.'
eun-hoat General. While, however, this is
the fact, Union men ought not to relax their
efforts, but on the contrary, ought to be
more vigilant and active than ever. The e
lectiona on Tuesday were but the prelimina
ry skirmish, and must be followed up with
vigor and enevgy in order to capture the cit
adel in November, and plant the old flag in
triumph on the ramparts. Let there be a
thorough, canvass throughout this county.
Let the meetings which miy be called in
the "various townships be well attended.
Devote your time from this until the elec
tion, in one persevering and united effort to
achieve success. Then we shall not only
conquer but conquer by such an overwhel
ming majority that copperheads, traitors,
and rebels, of every hue, and caste, and
character will be crushed out utterly and
forever. Then, when the sun shall go dow,n
in his Autumn splendor, on the evening of
the Sth cf November, his last rays will irra
diate the old flag, floating again in triumph
without one star blotted from its azure
field and without a stain upon its stripes
from one end to the other of the land !
THE NATIONAL DEBT.
A complete statement of the public debt
of the United States on September 30th,
has just been made by the Secretary of the
Treasury. It will be seen that the total in-terest-bearing
debt is $1.4S7,C71,lC,6f,or.
in round numbers, a fratitn less lhan one
thou.-and five hundred millions. The aggre
gate interest upon this debt is $5 1,77,643,
12. Of this aggregate interest-bearing debt,
nine hundred and twentv-three m
ag l
draws interest in gold coin, amounting to
fifty-fourand a half millions annually; and
five hundred and sixty-four millions on
the interest is paid in paper currency, a
mounting to twenty-seven millions annually.
The non-intercst-bearing debt amounts to
four hundred and eixtj'-eight millions, and
the grand aggregate of the public debt is,
in r.und numbers, one thousands nine hun
dred and fifty-six millions dollars.
THE EEAS0N.
Some of the Cops are exceedingly puz
zled to know WI13- the ticket carried Mr.
Bij.de r instead of Mr. Bigler carrying the
ticket how it came that he fell behind, not
withstanding all the effort was made for
him, while the ticket was left to take care
of itself? Our devil suggests that, having
ever since the days of the Kansas troubles
been alHicted with' a '"weakness n the
knees." he became so much exhausted when
he skedaddled at Bull Bun, that he has nev
er betn able to "run' well from that day to
this. He's emphatically "played out."
THE DIFFEEENCE.
When Gen. Patton was a candidate for
Congress he carried this Democratic county
by sixty-four majority running more than
three hundred ahead of his ticket. Mr.
Bigler, w ith the draft to help him, runs be-
.hiud his ticket having but 2408 votes,
while M'Cullongh, for District Attorney, has
2470 ! Bigler has but 1252 majority, while
Evans, for Auditor, has 1207; Parke, for
Coroner, has 1256 ; and Faust, for Sheriff,
has 1256. How popular, "our own" is. to
be sure ! Not so bad for "Bucher and Pat
ton" after all.
The "Way the Soldiers Vote.
No wonder Mr. Wallace made such a long
speech in the Senate against the right of the
soldiers to vote. No wonder the Democra
cy of Clearfield county gave 785 majority
against the amendment. The returns from
the army give us "the reason for the milk
in the cocoanut." They establish the fact
beyond all controversy, that from eighty-five
to ninety in every humlrml t oting soldiers
cast their ballot for the Union candidates !
Why shouldn't the Copperheads oppose
their voting?
Must Feel Bad.
"Patton and Bucher,"must feel exceed
ingly bad over Bigler running so far ahead
of his ticket ! Bill McCullough'a majority
is only thirty-four more thanhisl Evansony
beats him fifteen. Faust modestly leads
him only four, and Park for Coroner, four
teen. What 4 blessed 'martyr' he is to be
sure ! A second time he has "been sold by
his brethren." Won't Little Mae have pity
on him? Could' nt Vallandigham send him
back a few of the "ten cent contributions"
to pay expenses?
A Copperhead orator at Peoria, DJ., re
cently gave as a reason why his party could
not rejoice over Union victories, that a vic
tory was an ' infraction of the Constitutional
rights of the South, and that we (the Cop
perheads) can never consent to rejoice over
such a violation of thp Constitution." Ten
der conscience and amazing ingenuity have
these Copperheads, wherever any service
to their "Southern brethren" is concerned.
At Winchester, when Emory, General of
the Nineteenth Corps, dispatched ms aid to
Sheridan to tell him he had charged the en

LETTEE FROM CHARLESTON.
What one of our Suffering Soldiers in a
Charleston Prison thi:iks of the Chicago
Platform Extracts from the Charleston
"Mercury" and "Courier."
We receieved the following letter, from
Lieut L. B. Carlile, of the 145th Penn'a
Vols., who is a son of John Carlile, Esq.,
of Trout ville, in this county, and who is now
a prisoner in Charleston, among the number
, -
of those exposed to the fire of our batteries
on Morris Island. Lieut Carlile has
been in the army, almost from the com
mencement of the war, and a braver sol
dier or more worthy and reliable young man
is not to be found any where. The letter
was written in pencil, on a small scrap of pa
per, and the articles from the Charleston
papers, look as if they were printed on a
very inferior article of wrapping paper.
Military Prison,
Charleston, S. C, Sept 14, 1S64. j
Frien d llow : Through the kindness of
Maj. Harry White who has just been ex
changed, I am enabled to forward you two
articles from "our" Charleston papers.
They are editorials, and if not already pub
lished by you, may serve as positive proof
to your readers of the close alliance between
those whose semi-barbarism and inhumanity
I am daily realizing, and the men who are
equally the enemies of our country at tte
North.- The prisoner here, notwithstand
ing his horrible condition. sends to his friends
at home (discarding with disgust and con
tempt the Chicago resolutions) as- a watch
word for the right stand firmly by ''Hon
est Abe," that we may have none but true
"Americans on Guard!" Then you may
rest assured all will be well. Proclaim by
your November Election that you will hold
no parley with traitors in arms and then their
last glimmering hope w ill have died away.
Those who would be fit subjects for a moth
ers kind protection, and others whose limbs
are tottering from age, are now compulsori-
Iy guarding us prisoners, while their War
Department has just made a demand for
that portion of the conscripts who were de
tailed as overseers for the negroes and to fill
the work-shops.
Some of the officers of Sherman's Army
fave just been exchanged, and fortunately
Maj. Harry White their long cherished
victim is among the number. If he suc
ceeds in getting through, I hope this will
escape the rebel surveillance, and that you
will get the newspaper articles enclosed.
Please tell my friends that I am well.
Yours truly, L. B. Carlile.

From the Charleston Mercury, Sept. 5, 1864 J
"The EeBolutiona of the Democratic Party
at Chicago Peace or War."
"The resolution, just passed by the Dem
ocratic party at Chicago, on the subject of
peace, is quite as explicit as should have
been exacted. It declares that "after four
"years failure to restore the Union by the
" experiment of war, justice, humanity, lib
"erty and the public wellare demand that
" immediate effort should be made for a ces
sation of hostilities, with a view to the
" ultimate Convention of all the States, or
" itlf ir peaceable twins, to the end that, at
"the earliest practicable moment, peace
" may be restored on the basis of the Fed
" eral Union of the States."
1. First, '' immediate efforts should be
made." Sec. This is a blow .at Lincoln's
Administration.' The existing Government
at Washington, only, can make the "imme
diate efforts" insisted on. The Democratic
party. being not i"i2"?ter,canhotmake them.
2 'Or other peaceable means. ' ' Lincoln .
should not only make ''immediate efforts"
for a cessation of "hostilities, with a view to
" the ultimate Convention of all the States,"
but should use other means "to the end that
" at the earliest jossible moment peace may
" be restored on the basis of the Federal
" union of the States."
3. Here is all the committal ot the Dem
ocratic party. It is committed to a peace
policy and against the experiment of war to
restore the Union ; but beyond this all is
implication. It lays down for President
Lincoln a certain course ; and it may be
implied that that course will be pursued by
them, should they obtain power. But the
obligation is merely inferrential; and when
reaching power, it will be easy to say that
the time for its practicability, which Lincoln
would not embrace, is passed by. They
must do tte next best thing ENFORCE THE
POLICY TO WHICH THEY ARE COMMITTED,
EVEN THOUOII IT INVOLVES THE INDEPEN
DENCE of tue Confederate States.
4. Add to these considerations the care
fully exposed evils of the war to the people
of the Lnited States "the Constitution has
been "disregarded in every part; public lib
" erty and private rights alike trodden down;
" and the material prosperity of the coun
" try essentially impaired the usurpation
"of extraordinary power not granted by the
"constitution, the subversion of civil law
"by military arrests ; the imprisonment, tri
"al and pcotence of American citizens in
'" States where civil law exists in full force ;
" the suppression of freedom of speeeh and
"the press; the unusual test oath and in
"tcrference with and denial of the people
" to bear arms," and the inference ajpears
to ux to-be irresistalle, THAT THE ELECTION
of Gen. M'Clellan upon such a decla
ration OF WRONGS AND 1JLATFORM, MUST
LEAD TO PEACE AND OUR INDEPENDENCE
with one essential condition however, that
for the next two monhts ice hold our oicn
rind prevent viilitary successes by our foes.
If we do this, there is every probability that
McClellan will be elected. The draft of
50Q,000 men, which Lincoln demands to car
ry on the war, must essentially aid McClel
lan's election. This is a practical evil,
which will stir up women as well as men, a
gainst the war. In drawing our conclusions,
however, let U3 never forget, that there is
one All-mighty hand, which controls all, and
may turn to nought, the wisest human an
ticipations. '
From the Charleston Courier, Sept 7, 1864.
The Fall of Atlanta.
campaigns. Another city has fallen into
his hands, and a large, powerful, resolute ar
my under a general of some measure of skill
and endowed with uncommon energy and de
termination, holds a strong position m the
heart 01 a wealthy and prosperous ctate,
and menaces several vital points in our Con
federacy. Such an event is a calamity.
Had our loss in men, stores and ammunition
been far lighter, the time of its occurrence
makes that reverse no less than a celamity.
All of us pebceive the intimate con
NECTIOX existing between the armies OF
the Confederacy and the peace men of
the United States. These constitute hco
immence forces that are vc-orking together for
the procurement of peace. The party ichose
nomination and platform tee are consider
ing, are aJtogetlier dependent for success on
the courage and resolution of our fighting
7nen. If their generalship, sagacity, valor
and vigilance are unable to obtain victories,
and to arrest the progress of the invadimr
forces, the existing Administration wifl
laugh to scorn all the efforts of the opposi
tion, and in spite of the most powerful com
binations, will continue to hold the places
they occupy. Our success in battle in
sures the success of McClellan. Ocr
failure will inevitably lead TO HIS
DEFEAT. It is the victories that have croicn
edour armies since the tear began, that have
given existence, strength and harmony to
that organization, w hich has arrayed itself
with firm defiant front against the despot
and his minions. It is our long unbroken
series of splended successes that has embol
dened the few men of sense and honesty in
Yankeedom to raise their voices in denun
ciation of the unconstitutionl, base, foolish
measures adopted and enforced by their
Government, and they have gathered a
round the banners of their exceptional men
so large a number, as that they have good
hope of being able to make head against
the oppressor and tyrant
This heavy reverse occurs at the infancy
of that organization. It has not been but
started in its career. It has not had time to
mature its plans, and to develop and aug
ment its actual strength. We are aware
that that party, no matter how numerous,
harmonious and powerful, engages in the
contest with the party in power, under many
and grave disadvantages. Even if the cam
paigns under Grant and Sherman come to
grief before the end of the present month,
it is extremely doubtful whether Lincoln,
with the treasury at his command, backed
by the army, supported by the thousands
who are growing rich by the war and who
are deriving their maintenince from em
ployments of various sorts in his service,
will defeat his rival, and replace himself ia
the Presidential Chair. If it is highly prob
able he will be able to retain the power he
now wields, even in case we are altogether
victorious, there is no ground for the hope
that the opposition will succeed if our ar
mies are visited with defeat.
Contemplating the fail of Atlanta from
this point of view we are obliged to consid
er it a disaster of great magnitude.
What patriot can read the above extracts,
and not feel bis blood boiling with indigna
tion tingling to his very finger ends ? Who
can longer doubt the complicity of Northern
Copperheads with Southern Rebels? Do
you think the above are mere electioneering
documents, got up for the occasion ? Come
toour office and examine the originals. Come
and read the letter of the gallant young of
fieer inspect the articles be has sent con
vince yourself of their genuinness. and then
answer, before God; will you vote for Mc
Clellan and thus secure "the independence
of the Confederate States?" Will you lon
ger" act withan organization "dependent for
success on the courage and resolution" of reb
els in arms against your government t Will
you belong to a party whose "existence,
strength, and' harmony" depend on victo
ries gaine d over your fathers, brothers and
friends fighting the battles of the country?
That numbers of honest men will vote
Tor McClellan we do not doubt. Would to
God, they could be brought to realize the
fearful consequences his success would bring
upon the country ! Would that their eyes
could be opened to the overwhelming evi
dence that the object of Northern Copper
heads and Southern Rebels is identical. If
they could only bring themselves to reason
upon the Eubject, their delusion would soon
cease. Thy would speedily discover the
"intimate connection" which the Courier
declares exists between them. They would
understand how Rebel "success in battle
insures the success of McClellan," and Reb
el "failure will inevitably lead to his defeat."
And they would cast off with loathing and
scorn the harness of a party whose prospects
brighten with disaster to our arms, and dar
ken with the victories that perch upon our
banners a party that vampire-like, feeds on
the blood of our soldiers, and prospers on
the agony and tears of the widow and the
fatherless.
