Let the Seldicrs Vote :
By the returns of the armj vote received,
our friends will see that it was not labor
lost to afford our brave boys in the field
en opportunity to express their preference
lor civil rulers. Ten Union votes to one
Copperhead about the ratio of their
balloting attest the truth of the assertion
that they are Union themselves through
out, and that they know who are the
friends of the Union.
AUhough the soldiers have done most
nobly, acd have fully Some up to our most
sanguine expectation?, we are confident
they will do stll better in November. A
very great many votes were lost to us thro'
ignorance of the provisions of the law
under which they . voted. Thus, votes
were lost to U3 because :n some instances
the soldiers failed to furnish themselves
in time with evidence of their assessment,
and in other instances because, properly
furnished with evidence of a?sessment, no
poll was opened in their vicinity, when it
was too late to vote by proxy. Other
votes were lost by reason of the non-reception
of proxies at tho election districts
until after tho day of election. The law
regulating the voting is somewhat compli
cated, but now it must be pretty well
understood, and we reasonably lock for a
largely increased vote iu November, and a
correspondingly increased Union majority.
For fear any of our readers should not
fully understand the law, we will briefly
recapitulate its leading provisions. Any
citizen whomsoever may give tho name of
a soldier to the proper assessor, who is
roinlro.1 tn onfrr li rth rn Yii lit
assessing him with a tax of ten cents, (com
missioned officers are assessed with the
eame tax paid by other citizens,) and
giving to the citizen a certiScate of the fact.
On this certificate the County Treasurer
or any Collector endorses the payment
of the tax, and the paper thus becomes
prima faeic evidence of the soldier's right
to vote. When tho soldier i3 connected
,w:m a i ennsyivauia company, or is bo
situated that ten Pennsylvania electors are
together with him at one place, a poll is
opened in the field, whereat ho votes; but
if he is not a member of a Pennsylvania
company, or is on detached service, or is
otherwise so situated that less than ten
Pennsylvania electors are together with
him, he votes by proxy. In cither case,
tho certificate and receipt should bf for-
in the field, he cannot vote unless he is
prepared to present theui to the judges of
the election, as evidence that he is assess
ed ; if he vcics by proxy, he can return
them with his ballot. Where there are
ten Pennsylvania electors together at any
one place, in the Ssld or in a hospital, let
it. be remembered a poll must be opened,
and no voting by proxy is allowed ; where
there are less than ten electors together,
they must vote by proxy. When proxies
are used, particular care should be taken
that they be mailed that they may reach
the proper election district on or before
the day of election alter that date they
will not be counted. IVoxie furnished,
on application, by Cyrus L'lder, Ksj.,
Chairman Uiion County Comsjittje cf
Cambria County, Johnstown, or by A. A.
Barker, Efcensburg.
It should be borne in mind that all
proxies must be presented to the election
board unopened. The envelopes containing
Euch can easily be distinguished by the
words "soldier's vote," written or printed
across the sealed part. We know of sev
eral instances where votes were lost to us
in this county at the late election by reason
of the Feal having been broken by the
persons to whom the proxies had been
transmitted.
Union man! do you know of a single
soldier who wa3 not assessed for the late
election? If you do, it is your duty to
have him assessed note, that he may be
enabled to vote for Abraham Lincoln, and
so place on record his conviction that the
War is not a failure, and his determination
that the Rebellion must go down.
Victory Again!
Sheridan him of tho resistless saber
Sheridan the invincible P. II. Sheri
dan, Major General commanding in the
Shenandoah Valley has won another
glorious victory. It was in this wise :
The rebels under Earlv attacked our for
ces at Cedar Creek on the morning of the
19th, surprised them, and drove them in
confusion & considerable distance, captu
ring thereby twenty pieces of artillery.
It was a most complete surprise, and an
overwhelming rout- Had General M'-Clc-llan
been commander of the army,
from his former career it were safe to in
fer he would have incontinently surren
dered his whole force, or else precipitately
retired back on Baltimore. Not so with
Sheridan ! He was absent when tho dis
aster occurred, and only arrived on the
field when our army had retreated four
miles. In his official report, he says he
here "took the matter in hand" himself.
We believe him j for immediately a gen
eral attack was made on the boagtful foe
by our entire strength, with the result
that he was sent "whirling' again down
the Valley. If our rout in the morning
was jcomplete, theirs in the evening was
still more complete, for we recaptured our
twenty pieces of artillery, and not only
that but took thirty pieces of theirs. iu
addition, with sixteen hundred prisoners,
caissons, ambulances, wagons, &c, innu
merable, and drove them "clear out of
sight." It was a grand, glorious victory,
and from it the Union men and friends of
the War have extracted renewed hope and
determination. Where is he that would
dare say "peace at any price" novel And
where is he that wants "a cessatiou of
hostilities!"
Thus it is that the rebel Early is ma
king good his threat to "stump Pennsyl
vania for the peace party !"

Usiqn Soldieu! remember that when
the question as to whether Pennsylvania
soldiers should or should not be allowed
o vote came up before the people for their
tirbitrariient, on tho 2u August last, the
Democracy of the State unitedly and de
terminedly opposed the measure. Here in
Cambria county, 21-13 votes, or the full
available strength of the Demosratic party,
were cast against it, while their two organs,
tho Ebensburg Democrat & Sentinel and
the Johnstown Democrat, had been out
tooth and toe-nail for weeks in vigorous
opposition to it. And as with Cambria
euuety, so with the State at large. The
Democracy deliberately placed themselves
on record as protesters against the right
of the soldiers to vote. Soldier! the
moral of this is, that M'Clellan and Pen
dleton are now the candidates of these
2143 Cambria county vo(er3 and of the
Democracy at large the candidates of
those who voted to- disfranchise you forever.
If they are tuir friends, can they be your
friends? If they will be supported at the
polls' by 7if?,xwill they, can they be sup
ported by yuv ? Answer at the election.
Day of Rational Thanksgiving.
The President has issued the following
proclamation appointing & day bf National
thanksgiving and prayer:-
By the President of the United S.'atet of America :
A PROCLAMATION.
It has pleased Almighty God to prolong our
National life another year, defending ns with
ilia guardian care against unfriendly designs
from abroad, and vouchsafing jto us in Hi3
mercy many and signaJ victories over the
CDeray who is of. our own household. It has
also pleased our Heavenly Father to favor aj
well our citizens in their homes as onr soldiers
in their camps and our sailors on the seas
with unusual health. He ba3 largely aug
mented our free population iby emancipation
and by immigration, while lie has opened to
ns new sources of wealth, .and has crowned
the labor of our working men iu. every de
partment of industry with abundant reward.
Moreover, He has been pleased to animate
and inspire our minds and hearts with forti
tude, courage and resolution sufficient for the
great trial of of civil war, into which we have
been brought by our adherence as a nation
to the cause of lreedom and humanity, and to
afford us reasonable hopes of an ultimate and
happy deliverance from til our dangers and
afflictions.
Now, therefore, I, Abraham Lincoln, Pres
ident of the United States, do hereby appoint
and set apart the last Thursday of Xovember
next, as a day which I desire to be observed
by all my fellow citizens, wherever they may
then be, as a day of thanksgiving and prayer
to Almighty God, the beneficent Creator and
Jtuler of the universe ; and I do further rec
ommend to my fellow citizens aforesaid, that
on that occasion they do reverently humble
themselves in the dust, and from thence offer
up penitent and fervent prayer3 and supplica
tiens to the Great Disposer of events, for a
retarn of the inestimable blessings of peace,
union and harmony throughout the land
which it ha3 pleased Him to assign as a
dwelling place for ourselves and our posterity
throughout all generations. .
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the saal of the United
States to be affised. . '
Done at the City of Washington, this 20th
day of October, in the year of our Lord 18G4,
and oi the Independence of the United State3
the eighty-ninth. Abraham Lixcolx.
By the President: t
Wm. II. Seward. Sec'y of State.
Are You Assessed? Many votes
were lost to the Union cause at the late
election through sheer neglect to be as
sessed in time. Relying on the justice ot
our cause, it was taXen for granted that
Pennsylvania would go Union, and many,
very many good men failed to be assessed
and to vote 6imply by reason .of that be
lief. Thi3 feeling of over-confidence al
most lost to us the State. Union men of
Cambria ! shake off your apathy, and
prove yourselves worthy of victory. Wc
can carry the State, but in order to that
end, every man must icorJc, and work un
ceasingly. Remember, it is expected cf
usto not only carry the State, but to carry
it by fifty thpusand majority, so as to place
Pennsylvania beyond pcradventure on the
side of the Union and of the War. Get
assessed ! get assessed ! get assessed !
Saturday next is the last day upon which
ih'i3 can be done.
Maj.-Gen. David B. Birney, a brave
.soldier of the Union, and a Pennsylvanian,
died at bia residence, in Philadelphia, on
the ISth inst., of fever contracted in the
last movement of Grant's army against the
Rebellion. Almost in tho hour of his
death, he presented an example of patri
otism which should be a reproach to all
the lukewarm and a spur to all the care
less nominally in the Union ranks. He
arrived in Philadelphia cn election day,
with the impression of death upon his
features. Before allowing himself to be
taken to his home, he insisted upon being
carried to tho polls to vote And he was
so carried, and he did vote, voting as a
citizen for the cause for which he had
fought as a soldier. Union men ! let the
spirit which animated the gallant Birney
animate you on the 8th of November.
m m m
Full Returns of the Pennsylvania
home vote are not yet received, but
enoujrh is known to warrant the assertion
that there will be a small Union majority
Bearing in mind that seventeen thousand
soldiers were at home and voted with us
last fall, and that Curtin'f majority was
fifteen thousand, this cannot but be count
ed a grand Union triumph." The soldiers
vote will give us a majority of from fif
teen to twenty thousand. Huzza! The
old Kevstone is true to the cause of tho
Union of our fathers.
m m m '
We are told, says the Johnstown Tri
bune, that Mr. Johnston proposes to con
test Barker's election, on 'the ground of
tho unconstitutionality of the soldiers
vote ! Rather an ungracious attitude for
a friend of the poor soldier; but go onr
Mr. Johnston ! We quote for yoar en
couragement the conclusion of your happy
poem inspired by the cnlistmeut of the
three sons of Mrs. Glas9, of this placef
no have probaWy voted against you :
'On ship or shore, on sea or lami.
Press onward, and be brave."
The Union ElectoraUTickets to be vo
ted on Tuesday, 8th November, are now
printed and ready, for distribution at thi3
office. Our friends are invited to calf
around aud lay in a supply cf the same.

TRANSLATED OIJT OF the original sbebrew.
ClT AFTER IVi

they hat Michael l:xt he shall inherit the es
tate Michael selleth his Birthright for a litg
of Poteen Biddy and Teddy practice decep
tion, and cheat Michael out of his Father's
blessing Patrick goelh the teay cf all flesh
His Wake and Burial The Strange Woman
returneth, and maketh important Revelations
to Michael, and is Slain by Ttddy Where
upon Michael getteth alarmed and fleeth to
Mayr.ooth, where he becometh ths Wonder cf
the Inhabitants. . ;
Now; after the distemper had departed,
Michael continued to wax fat and grow
exceeding weighty, insomuch that some
of the people who came to see him 1aid
wagers in respect to the number of pounds
he would weigh.
2. Now in Tipperary there was a weight
calied a stone, and it wa3 equal to fourteen
pounds of Shebrew weight :
3. And it came to pass, when one of
the strangers had looked upon Michael,
ho said unto Teddy, I will wager fif$y
shekels that this fellow wiil weigh twenty
and two stones ;
4. And Teddy answered and said unto
the stranger, Shekels I have none, but I
know Michael better than thou, and if
thou wilt trust me, I will take the wager,
and wo wil; call Biddy, the lad's mother,
to judge betvixt thee and mo. v
5. So they fcgreed among themselves,
and called Biddy, who, when she had come,
said unto the stranger, Verily, Michael is
a deceiving fellow, for a3 I live he weigh
eth not by two stones as much as thou
hast faid.
C. Then the stranger was dumbfounded,
and when he had put the fifty shekels into
the hand of Teddy, he went his way, and
was not seeu by them again.
7. And Biddy, and Teddy rejoiced
among themselves, but took heed not to
acquaint Pat nek with tho thing which
had happened.
S. Now Patrick had become old and
his eyesight dim, and Biddy and Teddy
were wont to look forward to the time he
should give up the ghost, bo that they
miht bo made one flesh.
And Biddy and Teddy. set their
hearts upon the possessions of Patrick,
and they hated Michael, lest peradventure
he might come to inherit the Fame at his
father's death:
10. And Biddy said unto Teddy, behold
Michael lovetb poteen better than the ap
ple of his ey9 : go, take of thy money and
buy a keg thereof, and with it thou mayest
purchase Michael's birthright.
11. And Teddy did-as he was command
ed, and when he had come again into the
house, he said unto Michael: I pray thee,
Michael, sell me thy birthright, and in
return thou bhalt have this keg of poteen.
12. Aud straightway Michael's eye
brightened, and he said unto Teddy, What
is my birthright to me ? I will do even
as thou reiuireth, for I am thirsty, and
this keg of poteen will last me many da
13. And Biddy was present, and saw
and heard what had passed; aad Michael
loved the poteen, aud despised hU birth
right.
14. "And it came to pass when Patrick
had grown old and his eyesight dim, so
that he could not see, he called unto Mi
chael, and said unto him : Michael my
son.
15. And Michael answered and said,
Here am L, O my father ; do with me as
thou wilt.
1G. Then said Patrick, Behold now, my
son, I am old and cannot see, and I know
tiOt the day nor the hour of my death;
17. Now," therefore, my son, take thy
net, and also thy rod and thy line, and go
to the waters, and get me a'mackerel ;
18. And make me savory meat, such as
my soul loveth, and bring the sams unto
me, so that thou mayest receive my bless
ing before I die.
19. Then Michael filled a vessel with
poteen, and took with him his net, and
likewise his line, and went out to do even
as his father had commanded.
20. Now Biddy was present, and both
heard and saw what had happened, and
when Miehael had gone, she acquainted
Teddy with the words of Patrick.
21. And Biddy said unto Teddy, Go,
now, and take of thy money which the
ftranger gavo thee, and hasten to the
place whereat merchandise is bought and
sold, and bring me an herring quickly.
22. And Teddy went out and straight
way did the thing which he had. been
commanded: and when Teddy returned,
Biddy took the herring and dressed it, and
made it savory meat.
. 23. And Biddy took a barrel wherein
had been poteen : tmdshe took ono end
out, and likewise made two holes in the
Bides-of the barrel, one hole being opposite
the other ;
24. And she 'fat the barrel nigh unto
Patrick, and put !Tcddy under the barrel,
with one arm through each of the holes
in the sides thereof ;
25. And ehe took a Jarge pumpkin and
sat it on the head f the barrel, and the
covered the top of the pumpkin with the
sow-skin, which had' been tanntd with the
bristles on ; " , (
20. And she buttoned one of Michael's
garments around the' barrel, and put the
herring into one of Teddy's hands; and
when she had done these things, she ?aid
unto Patrick, Behold, thy eon Michael
hath returned, and hath brought thee a
mackerel, and made thee savory meat.
27. Then Teddy, being Etill in the bar
rel, reached out the herring, and said:
Here, O my father, is the mackerel which
thy 60ul desirest ; arise and eat freely.
28. And Patrick took ' the herring, sup
posing it to be a mackerel, and behold it
was savory, and he did ;e3 thereof und
was filled. I "
29. And whereas Patrick could not see,
his mind doubted concerning the matter,
and he said : Art thou leally my son, even
Michael, whom my soul loveth ?
30. And Teddy answered from under
the barrel, and said: Yea; father, verily I
am thy son, even Michael, thy first and
only born:
31. Then Patrick reached out his hand
and felt tho barrel with Michael's garment
thereon, and Patrick said, As I live, this
i3 Michael's body; likewise he put his
hand upon the pumpkin with the sow-skin
thereon, and said, As I shall die, this is
Michael's head. :
32. And Patrick said, draw near unto
me, my son, that I may kiss thee, and
know thy lips.
33: Then straightway Biddy took a rag
and. dipped it in poteen, and put tho same
to Patrick's mouth, after the manner of a
kiss;
34. And Patrick said, Lo, now, I am
satisfied, for theje are Michael's lips, and
this 13 his breath, whioh is sweeter than
the smell of the Bwill-tub; tate, therefore,
my son, my blessing and my inheritance,
for thyself aud thy posterity, even unto
the uttermost generation.
35. And it came to pasa when Patrick
had spoken these things, his breath de
parted from him, and he yielded up the
ghest.
36. And Biddy and Teddy rejoiced
secretly within their hearts, aad forasmuch"
as they themselves could not weep, there
fore they sent cut and hired others to do
the same for them.
37. And when the even had come, they
had what is'called in the Shebrew tongue,
a wake; and a plenty cf tobacco aud pctsen
was consumed thereat; and they that came
to weep' did make a great ado over Pat
rick, and did howl and whine in the house
after the manner of dogs and cut3.
J33. And Teddy rewarded them accor
ding to their merits, and when Patrick
i was juried after tho custom iu that
country, Biddy and Teddy returned to the
house to comfort themselves.
39. And when they had come back, be
hold Michael returned with the mackerel
for which his father had -sent him; and
Michael said unto them, where i3 my
father, even Patrick ?
40. - And they were confounded, and
could answer him not; and immediately
the strange woman with bare feet and torn
garments appeared, and said unto Michael:
41. By my troth, thy father is dead and
buried, and as fcr thy mother and this
fellow, Teddy, they have deceived both
thy father and thyself, and have robbed
thee of thy inheritance.
42. And Teddy's anger was kindled,
and ho arose and took a Ehellalegh, and
smote the strango woman, and slew her;
likewise Teddy rushed at Michael as if to
make an end of him also.
43. Now Michael was innocent, not
having the courage of a sheep, and when
he perceived these things, his heart waxed
faint; wherefore he dropped his mackerel
and ran ibr his life.
44. And being afraid to return to the
house, he waited until even, when he went
secretly and saddled his father's ass, and
journeyed toward the city of Maynooth.
45. And when Michael had come to
that city, his fame spread abroad, and he
was the wonder of all the inhabitants.
Note the fact that the Emancipa
tion policy is vindicated by the rebels.
The rebel Governor Allen, as late as
September 2Gth, wrote to his Government :
"The time has come for us to put into the
army every able-bodied negro man as a
soldier. He caused the fight, and
he will have his portion of the burthen to
bear. I would fr9 all able to Lear
arms, and put them into tlie field at once."
Cannot Mr. Lincoln do for the Union what
the rebels want to do against it?
Address of the Union Slate CetT
tral Committee.
Wre earnestly -commend our readers t
a perusal of the subjoined 'Address :
Rooms or tiie Union State Centbil
Committee, Puilada., Oct. 21, 1864.-,
To the Loyal Men of Pennsylvania :
Einoke of the first engagement has cleared
away, and upon the vote of her c:tiZeD3 t
home Pennsylvania stands by the Govern
ment of our fathers, while her brave sons
in the field will not give less thaa twolVa
thousand majority lor the good cause -!
The last hope, therefore, of the surporte
of General M'Clellan has disappeared and
the only result of continuing to sustain
him is to give aid and comfort to the re
bellron by inci casing the appearance of
disunion among ourselves.
Gen. Sheridan dealt a terrible blow to
treason on Wednesday, and everv patriot's
heart thrilled with joy upon hearing it
but a great majority for Abraham Lin!
coin in Pennsylvania would be far more
fatal to the armed conspiracy against tho
Union and the Constitution. Every vote
for our tried and faithful President wiil
paralyzo some arm raised to shoot doaa
the flag, while every vote for the la?e
surrender at Chicago and the men who
carry its white flag will encourage soma
rebel to shoot another Northern soldier.
The ticket nominated by ValliDdiLam
-Wood and Seymour is now black with
treason, and alter it is voted, it will be
red with the blood of our brothers fight
ing for us. The war has existed fjAbo
past year only by reason of our diviiioD.
and its continuance to-day is solely owinj
to the activity of the disunion party of
the North and the platform of its conven
tion. While any hope remained of the
election of it3 candidates, plausible excu
ses might be found by misguided men for
giving them their suffrages; but after the
verdicts cf Maine, Vermont, New Haicp
shire, Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania,
all sensible persons knew that the electioa
is already decided by the people, and that
it only remains to ascertain the majorities.
It follows, therefore that every vote fr
M'Clt-l!anand Pendleton is an earnest
invitation to Jeffersou Davis to continue
this fearful war, to waste more of our
treasure and to murder others of oursoc.
The sublime spectacle of a united North
will end the war. We invoke all patriots
to lend their efforts unceasingly to produce
this result. By perfecting the ward an
township organizations; by public addres
ses, especially by local speakers; by earnest
personal efforts with honest but mistaken
men ; by making arrangements to Irin
every loyal voter to the polls; by tending
tax receipts to every soldier and sailor;
by the immediate formation of cair.p3:i"j
club3 in every borough and coraiauLitv ;
by great meetings of the people by day
light and torchlight, and by all thehonts'.
agencies of an active and thorough canvas?,
appealing to the patriotic zeal aud kindlic
the patriotic enthusiasm ot a great anl
loyal Commonwealth, we can attest the
fealty of our State to the flag of the Unk::
by a majority worthy of the historic char
acter ot the contest and of the great ii;uci
dependent upon it.
Forward, then, every lover of his country
to this good work ! Looking not td th?
past, but to the future, forgetticg all per
son! consideration, and appreciating the
privilege of some sacrifice for Liberty snl
the Union, let us relax no etfert until th.
polls are closed. This committee
continue to do its whole duty, and relies
upon your instant, earnest and constant
assistance.
Grant's march of valor and glory from
the Rapidan to the James, sealed the h'o
of the rebellion. Since then Sherman hi
turned its left wing. Farra-rut is closic
the avenues of escape. Sheridan ha sent
it3 vanguard again whirling down the
valley. It only remains for us to soutd
the charge along our whole line, n
wrapping our ballots around our brother
bullets, march to the peaceful and
triumph which awaits us ia Xovember.
Proclaiming the war to bo a failure,
Gconre B. M'Clellan is himself the sires-
