ltoiiBERY. Ou Tuesday night, October
11th, some Scoundrels broke into the .-hop
of John Mooore, guustmth, in this place,
and stole therefrom three rides, a lot of tools,
Iv.-idcs destroying other tools. It is sup
posed that the perpetrators of the theft, be
long to the gang of desperadoes who have
been threatening to resist the draff. We
hope they will be detected and properly pun
ished. On the same night the house of Allen
Mitchell of Lawrence Township, was also
entered, and ; ri'Je-gun stolen no doubt, by
the same thieves who broke into Mr.
Moore's establishment.
SEYMOUR CORNERED.
Dan. Dougherty, the lile-long Demociat,
who 13 now one of tfce most eloquent cham
pions of the Union cause, ' happened to be
in Ilarrisburg the other day when Gov. Sey
mour of New York wua there, and sont him
the following note :
'ilAKKisiiCno. Oct. 74 o clock p. m.

Damfi. DorGHEiur, 'Jones House.'
' Hon. Horatio Sevmoi it, Ilarrisburg."
This note was handed to the Goverror,
by a friend of Mr. Dougherty's, when Mr.
Seymour declined, on the ground that he
was a stranger in Ilarrisburg. The re
sponse to this was that Mr. Dougherty was
abo a stranger there. The Governor "then
urged that the discussion would Le "'in bad
taste,'" and so ended the matter. Governor
Seymour is too old a stager to put himself
in a position toreply directly to the argu
ments of so earnest and eloquent a Union
man as Mr. Dougherty, awl so ho iuglori
ously backed down. Dan. would have an
nihilated hiai.
"WHAT THE REBELS WANT.
Colonel Dunham, Commanding a rebel
regiment under Early, wrote a letter some
tiinc since from Winchester, Va. , to a f'rieud
of his in Brooklyn, lu I., in the course of
which he said ,
"There can be m peace until Black Re-publicans-anJ
Abolitionists are silenced and
reduced to an equality, or at least a level,
with the niggers they clsim as their equals.
Let your Chicago Convention nominate Mr.
Davis for the Presidency, and I know a : ma
jority of the delegates would vot- lor him if
they dared and on thiselectioti you can ami
w ill have peace. Of course you will not do
tliis. The next best thing you can do is to
nominate and elect McClellan."
The fellow who wrote this was a well
known New York Democrat, who. in imita
trr.n of Mansfield Lovell and K W. Smith,
also Gothamites. left New York to join the
forces of the rebellion. This letter speaks

Letter from Petersburg. Va.
Weldo.v It. it. Va., Oct. 3d,. 1861.
Friend RuW: I want to say a few words i
t0 tjje people of Clearfield County, through j
. - ., - .. - ;.. .-it Vt;.., . I, ,. V
Now, what I want to sav to the Union-
loving people of Clearfield County, is, that
every soldier must be assessed and he must
have a receipt for tax paid, before he can le
gally vote. Who should attend to this? I
think it is the Assessor's business to assess
the soldier, and the Collector's business to
collect the tax, if not from the soldier, fiom
a friend, and send the receipt to the soldier.
Would this be doing too much for the
country ? Unless you attend to this, you will
lose votes by thousands. Where the asses
sor and collector are "peace" men, this duty
will rest upon other men, whose duty does
not require them to make any inquiry a
bout these things, but they should see that
ail their friends in the United Stares ser
vice are prepared far t he coming election.
Oo the next Presidential election depends
the restoration of the Union : the salety
of-tlo Nation. Did not the people of tho
free States enjoy ail the privileges granted
by the Cottstitution, before tho war? You
will enjoy the same after the war ends, and
by supporting tho present Administration
you will extend those privilege through the
entire South, and thousands of the down
trodden and oppressed will rise to bless you.
It the North will show to the-world, at
the election in November, that they are de
termined to establish the authority of the
Constitution and laws over even- foot of ter
itory in the so-called "Confederacy" the lle
beiiion will not last a year longer; but if the
McClellan party is successful, the war may
continue three or lour years longer. 1 think
the re-ek-eiion of Abiaham Lincoln is al
most a fixed fact, aud the more quiet the
opposition party is, the shorter will be the
war. 1 would say to all "peace" men, that
their efforts should be aimed at the continu
ance of peace among themselves in the
North, and the Army and Navy will make
peace with tho traii.ors fcoutii
If
vou
establish harmony in the
North, we will establish it in the South.

Letter from Ecraiuda Hundred.
Camp near Bermuda Hundred,
September 30th, 104. J
Mr. Editor: Having a few leasure mo
ments, it occurred to me that I could best
spend them by writing a few lines to an old
friend, the Journal. . . . The army is in
good spirits, and the general opinion pre
vails that the war will bo ended before spring.
The election in Ni vember it is believed will
be til? turning point. Sherman has been
:suceesful at Atlanta ; Sheridan in the She
nandoah: and that the movements of this
army will be a success, is not doubted.
Then, if the Union party is victorious at. the
polls in November, as it is sure to be, relcl
iion is played out. It would have been long
auo. if it had nor, been for its Northern sym
pathisers. If the Soul it has not. paid dear
for its whistle, already. 1 think it must
have bet1!! an exceedingly good one. You
cannot see a field of grain, a patch of pota
toes, nor even a head of cabbage growing
anywhere. To see a rod of fence, would
certainly cause sorec3res except it is a mud
fence topped out with sand bags, of which
we have plenty. But 1 must close. It is
very hot here. I write from the picket post.
I an- rcspectfuilv yours,
- E. Lydicic, Co. A, 200 1J V.
The Commencement of the "War
Below is a brief diary of events occurring
previous to the inauguration of Mr. Lincoln
on the fourth of March, 161, which fur
nishes a convenient answer to the Copper
head charge, quite common now-a-days.
that the "Abolitionists" commenced this
war. All the events noted, it must be re
membered, o curred during James Buch
anas's 'Administration :
D.vepber 20, Lo0 Capture of Fort
Moultrie, aud Cattle Pickney by the South
Carolina troops.
January 3, 1 S01 Capture of Fort Pulas

Feb. 17 Twigs transferred the United
States property in Texas to the rebels.
M .wii 2 The United States revenue eit
ter was seized by the rebels in Texas.-
The Indianapolis Senti'tid, an opposition
paper, speaks candidly of the effect of the
success of the Chicago platform, as follows :
"Turn we now to review the result should the
Chicago nominee b elected. His pro
gramme w ill be a cessation of hostilities and
an attempt to restore the Union by compro-
mlsp .-oid reconciliation : or, failing in that,
taking the last extreme, recognition,
