Paddy Shannon was a favorite with all the men, and some thing of a hero ; but all Paddy had left was the recollection of them acts—his only ace lace, the notice taken of the canteen—his only triumph, the whiskey. Need I say Paddy Shannon became a "drinker," or that Paddy soon made his appearance at the halberds? , The regiment was paraded, the protract ings read, and Paddy'tied up. The signal WAN given for the drummers to begin, when Paddy Shannon exclaimed : "Listen now, Sir Thigh. Do you mean to say you're go : ing dog me ? Just recollect who sounded the c arge at Barcena. when you took the only 'reach eagle ever taken. Wasn't it Ple - ld Shannon ? Little I thought that day i would come to this ; and the regi ment as proud of that same eagle on their colors." "Take him down," said Sir Hugh, and Paddy escaped unpuuish er I . A very short time, however, elapsed. be fore Paddy again round himself in similar circumstances. "(io on," said the Colonel. "Don't be in a hurry," ejaculated Paddy. "I've a finv words to say, Sir Hugh." "The eagle wont save you this time, sir." "Is it the eagle, indeed? then I wan't going to say anything ebont that same, though you are, and ought to be proud of it. But I was just going ,to ask if it. wasn't Paddy Shannon who, when the branch of Tarifa, was stormed by 22,000 French, and only the 87th to defend it., if it wasn't Pad dv Shannon who struck up Garryowen to glory, boys,' and you, Sir Hugh, have got the same two towers and the breach be. tweet) them upon your coat of arms in tar I thnony thereof.' "Take him down," said the Colonel, and Paddy was again unscathed. Paddy, how ever, had a long list of services to get thro' and a good deal of whisky, and ere anoth er veto months he was again tied up, the gentenoermad, and an assurance from Sir Hugh Gough that nothing should again' make him relent. Pity tried the eagle ----it wads rna use. Heappealed to Sir Hugh's pride. and the brans of Tarifa, without any avail. "And is it me," at last he broke out, "that you're going to dog?

At no time in the history of our country was your action invested With deep er interest or fraught with greater conse quences. Pennsylvania is again the battle ground of the Union ; and upon her deci sion in October neat, will depend. in a great measure, the triumph or defeat of the Ro t:l:plan party in,,the November contest.y impressed with this truth, the Dem ocratic :lime Executive Committee desires briefly to address you. It needs no lengthy argument at this time to call you to a sense of duty. In the crisis now impending, ev ery true patriot can see at a single glance the pathway he should tread with unfal tering footsteps. Ever since the separation of the Nation al Democracy at Baltimore, the State Corn- , mittee has earnestly labored to promote the Union of the Democratic party in Penn sylvania. It has sought no other object, it ha# steuggl, ed to produce no other result. When the chasm yawned that threatened to . engulf the powerful organization which, in times past, has been able to enntend I successfully with the foes of the Con.titu don and the oontempters of the equality of the States, the great heart of the American people was filled with dread, and the Dem ocratic masseivwere overwhelmed with con sternation. The Republican party viewed our internecine warfare with ill-disguised delight. Its lenders, confident - of success, boldly enunciated their dangerous and trea sonable_sentiments. The advocates of the 1 odious doctrines of Seward, Sumner, Lin ' coln and John Brown, became reckless and defiant. They believed that the prestige of success which had crowned the labors of the Reading Convention was irrevocably broken, and they promptly made the Key stOtin State the field of their active end en ergetic exertions. On our soil the battl e is to be ftsught, and with our people the vic tory or &fent must be accomplished. In this ennwgency, the SeateCommittee, &Mauled bye- feeling of patriotism and prompted only b, a wish to secure the tri umph of the "good old cause," endeavor ed to agree upon a course of action that would .enable the Detnocnitic masses to unite upon one. Electoral- ticket, and thus permit them to make a common effort against the candidates of the Republican party. After much deliberatiOn, a plan of union Was agreed upon, which, itfaithfully enteetitixl, will unquestionably produce this I patriotic result. In such a crisis it requires no words to prove the wisdom of any effort that will firmly e• - the opposition teeny.

Its power is exhibited in the re.pid growth of our extended boundaries, in the general prosperity and happiness of our people. and in the free and liberal charac ter that has been given to our political in stitutions. In invoking thorough and com plete organization throughout the State in behalf orthis party, a simple duty is ri , - ttr i :ti of the Democratic masses. The Committee is now actively enga,zed in endeavoring to secure this sure and cer tain precursor .of victory. We roust b e united in the contest, or our cause t. Ut terly hopeless. Parties, as well as nations, perish before the evil genius of dissension. Although clouds and darkness may sur round us, the union of the Democracy will avert every calamity by which we may be threatened, and will carry our banner in triuiaph through the storm and battle.
