The "paper bullets" of the People's Party persuasion are now printed and ready for distribution at this oflice. Our friends arc affectionately invited to call around and help themselves to the article. To the Polls! To tlic Iolls ! FREEMEN OF CAMBRIA COI NTV! ARE YOi: READY? Fricntls and supporters of the National Administration ! Lovers of your country! Patriots and loyal men ! On next Tues day, j-ou will be called upon to perform a hih and responsible duty. On that day, important State and County officers are to be clceted, and you must elect them. Arc yt,u ready fnr the. task?

Let it be remembered, that" a victory to the People Patty in the present aanv'ass will bt a yiclory to the Aduilnictratiu to the cause of the "Union, for whicdi thousands of our brethren are doing battle ! to the friends of a Constitution preserved inviolate to those in favor of a strict enforcement of the Laws. Let that victo ry, then, be decisive and overwhelming! Let it be remembered, also, that, at the proper time, the People's Party attempted to secure LJnion and Harmony in the Pol itics of Cambria county by proposing the r.ouiinatiou of a Uuiou Ticket, composed of an equal number of Democrats aud Republicans. This proposition, however, was rejected by intriguing Loco-Foco demagogues, and vc now have no alterna tive but to vote for our own men. In the present crisis of our country's affairs, partisan contests of whatsoever kind arc to be regretted. Until the war be over, but one feeling should actuate the heart of the loyal North, namely, devo tion to the Union. Party issues should be cast aside, party platforms and distinc tions obliterated, and we all, with one accord, rally on a common platform for our country's good. That a contrary state of affairs from this should exist in this County is due only to the efforts of the leaders of the Democratic party. The People's Party, with characteristic patri otism and liberality, one year ago sugges ted "Union for the sake of the Union;" but this proposition was listened to with closed ears by the Loco-Foco leaders. Aoio is the time to rebuke to signally rebuke and punish these same contempt ible, paltry, political tricksters for their narrow-mindedness ! It tun be done it should be done. Our Ticket is oijC that should commend itself to your hearty support. The men composing it are known to be competent and loval, and no blot stains the escutch eon of any of them. Honest and capable to the last man, will you not render them your undivided countenance and support? Thomas E. Cochran and William S. Ross, our candidates for Auditor (Gen eral and Surveyor General, are men of the right stamp men who have been tried and found not wanting. Their triumph will be a triumph of Right against Wrong, i and a signal rebuke to douiihfaccry and toryism. For remember the fact their opponents are Rreckinridge sympathizers, j and opposcrs of a stcru aud vigorous pros ecution of the war against Treason and Traitors. Slenker and Parr, the Demo cratc nominees for these important offices, are mere creatures in the hands of Frauk W. Hughes, l5hairmau of the Democratic State Central Committee a man who has been proem to be in direct and open sym pathy with the Traitors .of the South ! Men of Cambria! in voting for these Loco-Foco candidates know that you are aflording aid and encouragement to the Rebels, and your votes will be counted as so ruany Rebel adherents in the North. Can you afford to support them, then, and thus probably prolong the terrible war that is now desolating cur country? As you value your Liberty no.' Hon. Louts W. Hall 13 our candidate for State Senator. Three years ago the People sent him to Ilarnsburg by an overwhelming majority, and now they will do so again. His Senatorial career is ri'jld his record in that body, which is oren to all, is alike creditable to himself and to his constituency. Intelligent, faithful, bold and fearless, he has made himself a name that will not soon die; while uch was the esteem in which he was held by his fellow Senators that he was chosen to preside over their delibera tions during last winter's session. His re-election now is essentially important, by reason that at the coming session of the Legislature a United States Senator must be chosen to succeed lion. David Wilmot. Rill Rigler is again a candidate for this latter office, and the Democratic nominee for State Senator Mr. Hall's oppouent h a pupil and devout follower or that un principled, weak-kneed demagogue. Freemen! vote f-jr Mr. Hall apart from his own worth, by so doing you will help send a good aud true man to the halls of the National Legislature for the next six years, and thus defeat the unholy aspira tions of that enemy of the Administration Rigler. Col. Jamfs Cocper, our candidate for Assembly, is no stranger to the peopta of th"i3 county. J wo years since, he was elected to the responsible effice of County Commissioner, in which position he won the good-opinion of all with whom he came in contact. Ilia upright walk aud conversation has shown him to be a man to be trusted. Honest and capable a man of thcl'eople he possesses all the requisites to make a Legislator of the kind now so badly needed. In the event of hi3 election, he, too, will be called upon to y.oto for' a United States Senator; and hie principles are such as to forbid him to support any man who is not thoroughly loyal. Col. Wm. K. Caru, our nominee for Prothonotary, is a gentleman of fine attain ments and unimpeachable character. His clerical abilities, moreover, are of the first order. His name a familiar word through out the county, none will fail to accord him the highest praise as a public-spirited citizen, while the fact that he is now a candidate for public office for the first time, also speaks volumes in his behalf. The office of Prothonotary which should not be allowed to be made a monopoly by a few" individuals is one of incalculable importance to the People of the county, and that man does not cxi.it who can dis charge its varied duties more acceptably than can Col. Carr. For County Commissioner we have John Elder, a man against whose char acter no whisper of suspicion has ever been breathed. He i3 emphatically the man to keep watch and ward over the in terests of thi tax payers. Hailing, more over, from a section of county which is eminently entitled to a representation in the Roard of Commissioners, his election would be no more than a mere act of justice. Vote for him, aud get others to do likewise. In John II. Fisher, our candidate for District Attorney, we have a maii fitted in cverv respect for the office. He has al- ready given indication of skill and ability j in the legal profession, and, although a' young man, must soon attain to au envia ble position at the bar. Courteous and affable in social intercourse, prompt in the discharge of all business duties, moral and upright, and endowed with talents of no ordinary degree, he will make a most ex cellent custodian of the public interests attaching to the office for which he is a candidate. Wm. RerkstrFsser, our candidate for Poor House Director; C T. Rokekts, our j candidate for Auditor; T. R. Davis?, our candidate for Coroner ; aud E. A. Vick- llOY, our candidate for Surveyor, arc each and every one well aud favorably known to the People of the county. The offices to which they have been nominated are important in their character, and should be filled by good men. That thry belong to this class cannot be successfully gainT sayed, while their qualifications are such as to entitle them to j'our confidence and support. Vote for them, one and all ! Such, Freemen of the Mountain County, is our Ticket. Is it not worthy of your unqualified support ? It is. Can we elect it ? Yes. Then to work ! The enemy is active and vigilant, and it will require our best efforts to crush him. Hut it can he done! "A long pull, a strong pull, and a pull altogether," and the job is effected. Our cause is a righteous one. The Democracy have rejected every overture of conciliation, and although loath to engage in a partisan struggle just at pres ent wc have no other remedy than to 'fiaht on our own hook." If we succeed in putting that party dowu effectually and forever we will have done the State good service. Wc can try, at all events. Let the loyal people of the couuty, with out distinction of party, reflect calmly on their duty in the premises. If they are able tc distinguish between their right hand and their left, wc have no fears as to the result of their conclusions. A'otc is the time to strike a telling hlow fur God and your Country. STRIKE ! BS?" The leading article in last week's Dem. 6 Sent., which article, by the way, is a perfect tirade of Treason from begin ning to end, is maiked at the close by a ', seeming to indicate that the editor was cither afraid or ashamed to assume its publication without having recourse to. this dodge to prove, if cornered, that it was a mere anonymous contribution, for the sentiments enunciated in which he was in no wise responsible. How is this? Guilty, or not guilty ? Eft Jacob Horner, of Johnstown, is an independent candidate at the ensuing eke - tion for Poor House Director of which office he is now an incumbent. If rc-clcc-tcd, he promises to give Poor House mat ters "the same earnest attention" which he has heretofore devoted to them. ESS" A gentleman of New York has re ceived a letter from an officer in Garibal di's army, tendering that distinguished patriot's services to fight for the Union, and asking if New Vork will accept them. She couldn't do better. EftX, A military organization has been formed in New Orleans, denominatf-d the j "John Rrown Guards." They will soon be "marching on." todd vs. LIXCOLX. In the progress of things here below, it has pleased that eminent philosopher, that profound thinker, that cogent reasoner, that vigorous writer, that illustrious states man and big little man, James S. Todd, to come down on President Lincoln. This he has seen fit to do through the medium of that ancient and reliable family news paper, the Democrat t' Sentinel, a journal which, as everybody knows, is exclusively devoted to the dissemination of useless knowledge, aud the way he has done it is "a caution." It is really thought now by many that Old Abe will ''feel so bad" that, if he had matters to do ovei again, he would do -Just whaflte has done. In the exercise of his rightful authority, President Lincoln has issued a proclama tion, declaring emancipated from their bondage. all persons held to service or la bor, as slaves, in the rebel states, vhose rebellion si all last until the first day of January next. It is not necessary that we should at length discuss the merits of this measure. It should suffice that it has been cordially approved and endorsed ly the Governor of ttrelce loyal states, some of them Democrats, too, who, in their recent address to the Pre-idc-nt, hail it "in the heartfelt gratitude of encouraged hope." Rut it has not. only met the ap probation of these distingui-Jri.'J characters; it has been receiv?3 .with joy by the good and the lryal everywhere. The people wher had so nobly responded to every call of the Chief Magistrate, whether for men or money, had become tired of the gentle policy which had been exhibited in the prosecution of the war. They Lelieved that it was calculated to demoralize the army, 'to sacrifice the best interests of the nation, and to endanger the stability of the Republic They could see no propri ety in making the preservation of the national supremacy subservient to the preservation of Rebel interests and section al institutions. They did not like to tec their loal brethren employed in taking careof the enemy's property, nor did they wish to have them use-d as slave catchers for Rebel masters. In short, they viewed these little acts of kindness towards the traitors as cruelty to themselves and to the nation; hence they asked that the war should be conducted in earnest, and with the utmost vigor, by all the means authorized by the acts of Congress and by the laws of nations. Such were the motives aud such the demands which led to the proclamation, and the are such as will meet the appro val of the mind and conscience of every loyal man. True, James S. Todd may not agree with us in this; still smart aud all as he is James may possibly be mis taken. He it, after ail, but a finite being, and besides he has a part to play. The ' humble instrument" in the hands of a clique, he must do the bidding of hi masters. There arc men who prefer the success of their party to the success of their country; there ate men who would rather sec this glorious Union shattered into fragments than see it saved under the auspices of Arraiiam Lincoln. It well becomes such cattle, therefore, to ! charge him with having no "real regurd for his sacred oath of office," and to de nounce him as "a weak, vacillating old mouutebank," and "the tool and pliant automaton of wicked and designing knaves." When all in -the free states should stand shoulder to shoulder, and heart to heart, in defence ot our country, it is deeply hu miliating to find those amongst us who will thus persist in giving aid and comfort to our enemies. Rut why complain ? There arc plenty of loyal men to fight success fully this bittlc-of free institutions for the world, aud however desperate may be the struggle, by the blessing of God, the des tiny of our great Republic will yet be fulfilled. T"From Springfield, Mo, we have uews of a fiht at Sarcoxie, but the result was not known. It is reported by refugees that nearly every able-bodied man in Northern Arkansas is either a consciij t j in the Rebel army or a refugee. The Rebels perpetrate an manner oi ouuages seizing all property that can be of use to them, aud leaving women aud children to starve. One story is that Hindmau, the' Rebel commander, proposes to march immediately upon St. Louis, promising his men plenty of rich plunder in that city. 35-A battle is expected to eccur very soon at or near Eardstown, Ky. The Rebels have o", 000 men near that place, and the Union central advance was only four miles off on S-aturday. Skirmishes had taken place, and G-JO Rebel, prisoners had been taken. Kirby Smith was at Frankfort with 10, 000 men, and Hum phrey Marshall was ou his way there with 5,000. Address ot llic Sooyal Governors to tlic President of tiie United States. Herewith we print the address of the Loyal Governors to the President. It as sures Mr. Lincoln of unqualified support in all lawful measures for the suppression of the Rebellion; of hearty acquiescence in all laws passed, or that may be passed, to preserve the life of the nation ; most heartily indorses the Emancipation Proc lamation, and demands the exticctiou of Slavery as a war necessity; advises the raising of 100,000 reserves after the requi sitions already made are filled; and thanks our brave officers and soldiers for their heroic sacrifices in the cause of the Re public. This address the official result of the much-abused meeting at Altoona is the most conclusive answer to the ven omous slanders flung at the Governors by the Jlebel-sympathizing press of the North. Read it : After nearly one year and a half spent in content with an armed and gigantic Rebellion agaiust the National Govern ment of the United States, the duty and purpose of the loyal States and peopla continue, aud must always remain, as they were at its origin, namely, to restore and perpetuate the authority of this Govern ment, and ths life of the nation, no mat ter what eotrsequences arc involved in our fidelity. Nevertheless, this work of restoring the Republic, preserving the iii.-titut hjhs of democratic liberty and just ifying the hopes and toils of our fathers, shall not fail to be performed, and we pledge without hesitation to the President ot the United States the in.jit loyal and cordial support, hereafter, as heretofore, in the exercise of the func'.ions of his reat office. We recognize in him the Chief Executive Magistrate of the Nation, the Commander in-Chisf of the .rmy and Navy, of the United States, their respon sible and constitutional head whose right ful authority and power, as well as the constitutional powers d Congress, must be vigorously and religiously guarded and preserved as the condition on which alone our form of government and the constitu tional rights and liberties of the people themselves can be raved from the wreck of anarchy, or from the gulf of despotism. In submission to the laws which may have been or which may be duly enacted, and to the lawful orders of the President, co-operating always in our own spheres iu the National Government, we mean to continue in the most vigorous exercise of all our lawful aud proper powers, conten ding agaiust treason, rebellion, and the public enemies, and, whether iu public life, or in the private s-tation, supporting the arms of the Union until its cause shall conquer uutil final victory shall perch upon its standard, or the Rebel foe shall yield a dutiful, rightful, and unconditional submission. lmprc?scd with the conviction that an army of reserve ought, until the war shall end, to be constantly kept on fo t, to be raised, armed, equipped and trained at home, and ready for emergencies, we re- snectiuliy o.t- !- 1 V.iil.lnvf. tit -All tor such a lorcc of volunteers for one year s service, of not less than one hundred thousand iu the aggregate, the quota of each State to be raised after it shall have filled its quotas of the requisitions already made for volunteers and for militia. Wc believe that this would be a measure of military prudence, while it would greatly promote the militaiy education of the people. We hear with heartfelt gratitude and encouraged hope the Proclamation of tlic President issued on tht 22d inst., declaring emancipated from their bondage all per sons held to service or labor as slaves in the Rebel States whose Rebellion shall last until- the first day of January ensuing. The riirht of any poisons to retain author ity to compel any portion of the subjects of the National Government to rebel against it, or maintain its enemies, implies, iu those who are allowed the possession of such authority, the right to rebel themselves; and therefore, the right to establifh martial law or military govern ment iu a State or Territory iu rebellion implies the right and the duty of the Government to liberate the minds of all men living thcrciu by appropriate procla mations, and assurance of protection, in order that all who are capable, intellec tually aud morally, of loyalty -ind obe dience, may not be forced into treason, as the willing tools of rebellion- traitors. To havt. continued indefinitely the most efficient cause, support, and stay of the rebellion, would have been, in our judg ment, unjust to the loyal people whose treasure and lives are made a willing sacrifice on the altar of patriotism, would have dis.eriminatcd against the wife who is compelled to surrender her husband, against tho parent who surrenders his child to the hardships of the camp and perils of battle and iu favor of Rebel ma-ters thus permitted to retain their slaves. It would have been a filial decis ion alike against humanity, justice, the rights and dignity of ttie Government, and against a sound and wise natioual policy. The decision of the President to strike at the root of the Rebellion will lend new vigor to the efforts, and new life and hope to the hearts of the people. Cordial ly tendering to the President our respect ful assurance of personal and official confi dence, we trust aud believe that the policy now inaugurated will be crowned with success, will give speedy and trium phant victories over cur enemies, and secure to this nation and this people the blessing and favor of Almighty Q, Wc believe that the blood of the her' who have already fallen, and those T may yet give up their lives to the countrV will not have been shed in vain. The splendid valor of our sol-3iCr, their patient endurance, their n. patriotism, and their devotion to dnt demand from us and from all their couu; men the homage of the sineerest gratitae and the pledge of our constant re-enfor, ment and support. A just regard f(. thes brave men, whom we have contri' utcd to place in the field, and for t importance of the duties which t;r, lawfully pertain to us hereafter, has cal!t us into friendly conference. Aud now, presenting to our Nation; Chief Magistrate this conclusion of c deliberations, we devote ourselves to ou country's service, and we will surrou the President with our cons-taut suppor trusting that the fidelity aud zeal the loyal States and people will always assure him that he will be constantly maintain., in pursuing with vigor this war for tie preservation of the national life and it hopes cf humanity.
