They have a hard road to travel; -but they may win. i The nemocrits of Delimare b i nve nomi , nated a full ticket with S. Rhoads fol. Assembly. It nab° beaten about 1,300. Edward A, Price is the Union candidate for Assembly, •The Union men of McKean e4unty have nominated Capt. Frank Bell for Asseimbly, A. N. for Sheriff, John It. Chad Wick for Pro- thonotary and W. W.

Elsbree 'for Register. Bradford will give over 4,000 for the ticket. Mr. P. W. Hughes was the , a4thor of the proposition to dissolve the Union, and unite 'Penn sylvania with the Scinthern Copfederacy. Mr. Jus tice Woodward was nominated mainlyby the efforts of Mr. Hughes. The teacher knows his disciple. A rebel writer says there are ”divisions in the camp of the enemy," and that the efforts of the Democracy "Operate direc'ly as so Much aid' and comfort to the South."" How much comfort will be obtained from • California, I)claware, Maine and Vermont? Had Tenne.see been a free St4e like Ohio, she would, like her, havebeen loyal aid prosperous.

' Ile is an old Democrat, .was twice in the Houie as a Democrat;, bathe enter ' ed the army and earned promotion by his gallantry and naturally enough prefers bis country to his yartY„t An earnest effort should elect him. A correspondent of the Sprfhglield (Mass) Rerruefivan suggests a new way of bringing about , peace: "Let a committee. consisting of Villaindig ham. B . isymour, Wood and co.G Lunt visit the Con fediTt.,y in the name of the party, and in pathetic tours, imitating the beast on which Daalam rode, plead: 'Am not I thine ass. on which thou haat rid ' den ever since I'was thine ?' " . . _ Thy Union - men of Washington county , have nominated 'Robert R. Reed and JaMes R. Kelly for Assembls-, John E. Bcllfoi Prothonotary, Win. A. 'AlieKey for Register.

Win. 114 kins is the Coitperhead can didate fOr Senator in Washington and Greene. r Washington ought to give a insjoriti on the right Bide this fall. The Democrats of Chestbr ;county have 'nominated Richard A. Gilpin for Seiiator, Hibbard Evans for Judge, C.C. Moore, S. W. Sellers and Andrew Armstrong for Assembly. i A fell ticket for the county offices was also nominated, but as it will not be Iteard of after the election: it is not worth recording. The notorious Monaghan is on for District AttoineY against Mr. Creigli. .. Gen. John A. k!Ciernand this writes ton meeting in Illinois: "A mission is eonfoledto us to keep alive the fire upon the altar of iberty it what ever personal cost thii must be done. If armed f re :bets stand in th way. remove them; if need be, by arms ;If nioral bels stand. in the way, crush them by the weight o an -indignant pnbtio opinion :if party creeds stied in the way, hasten to wipe them oat of it." - . i The Union victories since the•first of Ju ly last include Vicksburg; Gettysburg, Port Hud son, Morris Island, East Tennessee. 'Vern:tont, New. Hampshire. Connecticut. 'Rhode Island Delaware, California, Nevada and Maine. *fore the Year closes we cant record Charleston. Pennsylvania. Ohio, New York, Illinois, Indiana, and others "too numerous to retention: " The glorious cause of the Union was never more bright thin at present. An Ohio paper makes the following refer ence to the state of the campaign in that State. The remark might be applied to Pennsylvania: "And -now, if anybody has heard cheers at a. Democratic meeting concerning our late successes, we would be glad to Publish the fall particulais. We do not think sucha phenomenoli„has oceuired. If it has, we want names, dates, places, spiritef the occasion, circumstances of the announcement; all about it." The Democrats of Adams--vihere Democ racy means everything that can embarrass the gov ernment in preserving its own existence, have nom inated J. Marshall for Assembly, J. E. Wierman for Judge, Adam Rebert for Sheriff, Samuel Lilly for Register, James J. Fink for Clark..Jacpb Trox el for Treasurer and Samuel March for Commiss ioner. Cannot the Younk Guard:redeem herself this fall? Shall the sacred ground of Gettysburg declare against the government that has won its noblest victory there?" G. W. Curtis writes iii * Hailier's 'freckly : Vermont has just elected a loyal Governor: „ti-Sen ate nnanimously'loyal, and a house which counts only some dozen inembers who ard opposed to the war. Vermont supports uncouditienally and over- Whelmingly the , policy of the GoVernment. Does anybody believe that the great safeguards of civil lib er ty are endangered in Vermont; because she did not elect friends of Davis and Toombs to be her Gtoirlior and legislators? Does anybody believe that those safeguards will be more secure in Ohio. than in Vermont, if Valtandigham should be cho sen Govcoor of Ohio? Does anybody believe that the rights Of citizens or legitimate State rights are in Ivry greater peril in Vermont, where a Copper head is not Governor, than- they are in New York where Seymour is! Are the principles of the Gov ernment and the Constitution any less safe in the State of Vermont than they are . in Kentucky? If ray loyal State followed the exarnple of Vermont :song a single lover of the Union and the Govern leen regret the result? • -I - The grand Union Mass ISldeting at- Pitts /n4 on thel6th was a mostremarkable demonstra tion. The vast area of the WestC,ommon was filled with the lon' people of Allegheny, while the thoroughfares leading to the place were crowded. Robert Woods, Esq., a well-known lawyer of Pitts burg, and a promiiient.Demociat for many,years, Presided. A large number of vide ; presidents and secretaries was chosen, many of them leading Dem ocrats in former days, who were loudly cheered on taking their seats. Speeches were made by Gover nor Morton; of Indiana, Governor Curtin, 31r. Matthews, of Maryland, and others; They were replete with patriotism and loyalty, and frequently interrupted by the plaudits of the excited multi tude. Capt. Gibner, of the 140th Pennsylvania Regiment„ read an address signet by fifty-eight of ficers stationed' at Camp Copeland, invoking the loyalty of the people in support of the state and -General Administrations in its efforts to conquer a Rove, Resolutions were unankaiously adopted de cimally It the solemn duty of every patriot haiing ,P , t hit heart the welfare of our , beloved country to' • cast his rote for the men only who stand pledged to an unfiPterieg support of the National Government id recoulinmOlieg Andrew Curtin and Daniel Agnew agottle , true standard beaters of the loYalists germsliVeatia. 1 • Ten :thousand people assembled in masa convention at Catasagult oil the 19th. They were addressed by - Gov. Curtin, Judge Shannon, Hon. A. K. McClure, and R. S. Matthews. To-night An immense meeting is in progiess, at Allentown, and addresses are being delivered by the above-named gentlemen. An immense mass meeting of Republicans was held in Harrisburg on Saturday evening. " Cameron presided, and after announcing his hearty support of the Union candidates, introduced Gen, Butler. The General spoke in the most eloquent manner upon the duty of supporting the Adniiniii- 7 tration. The enthusiasm was unbounded, and "z meeting only limited by the capacity of the hall. In Pennsylvania the campaign is progres sing splendidly, and from all parts of the State we have the most cheerful tidings. In every quarter our friends are alive to the great struggle through which they are passing, and spare no energy to in struct and convince the people. Now that the elec tion in Maine•is over, we are to have the assistance of able and eminent friends of the Union from oth er parts of the country. - We . are pleased to announce the fact that the Hanover Gazette, the oldest German Democrat ic paper in York County, has hoisted the flag of "Curtin and Agnew," and comes out boldly in sup port of the Union., This is a most valuable acqtii- Eiden to the loyal nien of York county, thp want of a good German paper having long been felt. One of the proprietors of the Gazette has fought gallarit ly in the armies oithe Union, and like other Patti - otic democrats has had his views slightly changed by a sight of slavery and rebellion as it really ex ists. The Gazette has a large German circulation and will do yooman service in the campaign. Ws gladly welcome the Gazette into the loyal ranks. and wish it and its publishers all success, • • The Demoerney of Pennsylvania will ad mire the rare- and refreshing-frankness with which a Democratic paper of New York comments upon the resolutions passed by the Convention that re . cently met in Albany. What is said of the platform adopted by the Convention of New York may just ly be applied to the platform adopted by the DMn °erotic Convention that assembled at Harrisburg: "Th e D emocratie Convention adopted a resolution apparently favoring a prosecution of the war. but., in fact, susceptible of any constructiondhat - the reader may choose to give it, It was pdlioy,And not princi ple, that dictated that resolution. The sentiment of the Convention decidedly inclined to peace. Hay ing disposed of a mechanical difficu/ty, and screened themselves from the charge of treason, there is no fur =ther occasion for thii worthless saving clause to be paraded before the people, Let the canvass proCeed upon a peace basis, openly and without disguise, The Black Republicans will not hesitate to exhibit their black idol upon the rostrum, and to make it the feature of their electioneering.", It has been said that Vallaiidigham, while in the South, repeatedly exhorted the rebelsto hold on to Vicksburg, declaring that the success of his Party in Ohio'depended altogether on the ability of the rebel Government to baffle the Union armies besieging that place. This report has been s lialis" nantly denied by the Copperhead prints, but ,the Chicago Tribune has 2btain ed porton t-evidenee in confirmation of the katement. Ihe Tribune says: "Unfortunately for their epithets and for Vallan;',.l digham's loyalty. we have in our possession a letter written, by a rebel provost marshal' attached to - Bragg's army, and a man evidently of unusual im telligenee,,in which the above fact is clearly, unmis takably stated. The letter, 40as written to friends in Western Tennessee. and captured in the possession of a mail-carrier, who-is now, or was recently in cus tody at Columbus, Ky. The writer heard Yellen digbam make the statement in his presence, that his" election depended upon rebel success at Vicksburg. The letter awaits the pleasure of any Copperhead disbeliever who will call and see it," VLegal ,11.otireo.
