.In) the Herald of list .. 'we - ek, We took • the liberty' Of offerinea,suggestiMi in re • • gard to the:lbramtion o a Union county ticket,' without regaid to ,Paity. The article 'was. written withoitt consultation witkany one, and from desire,toob tain an advantage for one party over another, but simply because we conceived it to be our duty, in the present crisis, to discountenance all partizanship, and to favor such a platform as would include all loyal citizens, no matter what their pol itics may have been heretofore. The subjoined communication from Newville, signedby .fifiy•six of the most prominerweitizens in,that-vicinity;-ehows that we do not stand, alone in this matter, and we hope to receive similar responses from all parts' of the county. Now is the time, in advance of the county conven tions, to inaugurate a-plan by-which this object may be effected; and, if our dem ocratic friends will meet us in the same spirit, the result will be the,selection of good men, without any of that strife and embittered feeling which has marked the contests of'former years. oARtpris, piL Filiiiii".,OGFT,p, i 861:. seport of the Countl , Supettntendent On the.Qrst page of the Ilerabl this week, will he found the annual report of the County Superintendent of the com. mon schools.

Pm: KAPPA SIG 111 A.--We have re ceived a' copy of a poem, delivered be fore the Phi Kappa Sigma fraternity by ALDERT .11.- SLAM Esq of Philadelphia, at the convention held in New Yorl, city, December 1860. The Poem is entitled the "Rosiorucian," and is worthy the reputation of the author, who while del ving amid the mazy labrynths of the Law, finds occasionally a leisure hour in which to woo the Muses. Who Political, Campaign We see by the proceedings of the Dem ocratic Standing Committee as published in the Democrat and Volunteer, that the political fossils, who compose that body, have not yet realized the fact that the' Democratic party is as dead as an Egyptian mummy. They have decid• ed to call a County Convention fur the purpose of putting a Democratic ticket in the field, and Monday the 2d of Septem ber-, is the day fixed for applying the gal- Tuin battery to the old carcass. It will only be a spasm. ter; The editor of the American thinks that the formation of a Union ticket this fall, untrammelled by party politics, may be very good policy, but doubts its prac- ticability. In our. opinion, whatever is good policy can be wade practicable, if —people-ate content _ta_sink... their-personal preferences, in a general desire to advance the public good. The Three-month Volunteers The discharge of the three-monthvol unteers jrt on the eve of a requisition on the part of the government for more troops, will have an excellent influence on the new regiments about to be raised. FroinrCthe sentiments expressed by the returned volunteers with whom we have conversed, hero and at Harrisburg, we are led to believe that at least two thirds of them will re-enlist for the war. This wily give to each regiment a large pro portion of well drilled men, who, with their three months' experience of the require ment of a soldier, will give our army a degree of efficiency far superior to what i~ was wh - erCifist called into service. DESERTERS.- For a week or two past we have heard vague rumors to the effect that a portion of the men of the First Regiment Pennsylvania Reserve • Corps bad refused to - be mustered into the ser vice of the United States,_ when they reached Baltimore, and had consequently left for home. It was mortifying also to the people of this county that a majority of the men were said to have been mem bers of the Carlisle Infantry, Captain Mc- Cartney. The following advertisement, from the Harrisburg Telegraph of Tues day, signed by the Colonel of the regi ment, leaves us no longer in doubt on the subject: HEADQUARTERS DIRET REG. PENN'A.

We hope that when the Standing Com mittee, which is to meet in 6rlisle on Satur day the 10t h'instant, for the purpose of taking action in relation to the approaching election. they will not lose sight of the situation of our country, knowing, as t heywell do, that it is not a party strife, but one of Union and govern ment, which is infinitely higher than that of party. ..„ In conversation, with many of our political opponents, we find' some who agree with us in saying that pare) , predilections shotild be 1110 asitle,o„this time, aild the people unite upoti a-tfoi& ticket, which should be com posed of good, soiled, and loyal men, who are willing to sustain the government until peace, order, and union are restored again. Let us forget all that is unworthy of remembrance, cease our complaints of those who are en trusted with the governmetit and the bravo men at the head of our armies, and in the' army ; confide in our servants, and then we shall march forward to such a victorious future as will deliver not only the South from its oppressors, but the Union from those who are now laboring to consummate its oVer throw. PROORICSS Tiff WAR For the past week there has been no news of importance from the scat of war. The army under command of Gen. Banks _opposite fla.rper!..s.F_erry t is mented by reinforcements which are,:or .ganized into brigades as soon as they ar rive. A correspondent of one of the . Philadelphia- papers, - who is at the Camp, says : The location is unassailable, except from the opposite Virginia Heights, which would really command that position, but for the existence of obstacles almost insu perable to the erection of any battery t there. Reconnoitering parties and scouts arc on the alert at all hours„ and it is impos sible for the enemy to arrive in any force near enough.to threaten us, without time- ly notice beng given. The commissariat and quartermaster's departments are efficiently officered, and _active preparations are progressing for fu ture operations. The men are generally anxious to get out on picket service, and perform that arduous and delicate duty with the bravery and discretion of veterans. Hardly a night passes but some important informa tion is thus gathered. They range a long distance on all sides of the camp and pay particular attention to the only routes by which the enemy can approach." 6, A skirmish took place on the sth inst., opposite the Point of rocksibetween a de tachment of sixty men of the 28th regi ment New York volunteers under coin mand of Col. Brown, and a party of rebel cavalry. The Colonel, with his party, came on them about sunrise, and ordered them to halt, - which was not obeyed, and they fired on them and killed three, wounded two and took twenty horses, with their equip ments, and seven prisoners. They bro't them into camp this morning about - ten o'clock ; without getting a•man hurt. The fifteen regiments of the Pennsyl vania Reserve Corps, it is said, will be placed under command of Maj. General McCall, and concentrated near George town. Several of the regiments, includ• ing the 7th, have , already encamped there. Distil,'" in allatiourl.

Piferce.--Brigadier General Pierce has published a statement in re gard to the Great Bethel fight, in' which he asserts that he advanced under explicit orders, but that the plan of attack and the orders-itecompanying it betrayed a want of knowledge of the enemy's position and numbers; that his command was composed of raw recruits, with only twenty rounds of ammunition, his small artillery force having but twelve rounds, hardly sufficient for five minutes' fire; that the cause of fir ing into friendly regiments was owing to the neglect of Gen. Butler to notify the detachment which joined him from New: port News to wear or recognize the white badge worn on the arm. Gen. Pierce, in conclusion, says that " aftr the battle lad, taken place,, and public opinion had fastened on me the opprobrium of the defeat, I applied for a court of inquiry that facts might be set right, and the blame, if there was any, rest on the proper officer. In answer to my.application, nay, my demand, I- re ceived but one reply, that a court of in. quiry would reveal far too much that would injure the service " PROPOSED INCREASE OF THE REBEL ARMY.-It is understood in official °holes, says the Richmond Dispatch, that the Secretary of War, the Hon. L. Pope 'Walker, has recommended to Congress 'an a idition to the Southern_ army of three hundred and fifty reiments, or such number as, added to. the force already or ganized, will make an aggregate of five hundred and sixty regiments. Estimating each regiment at a thousand men, this would give a force of five hundred and sixty thousand men, rantt and file The white population of the Confederate States being, in round numbers, five millions six hundred thousand souls, the proposed ar-, my would amount to just ten per cent. of the whole, or one soldier to every ten white people. MANY The Legislature of Tennessee has passed an act "for the relief of volunteers," which authorizes the Governor to impress: into the army all the free .ifegroes of that State, between. the ages of fifteen add fifty years, being sound in mind and body. These " volunteers" are to perform such menial services in the camp as may be required, and to receive therefor regular rations, with eight dollars per month as wages. LATE FROM FORT PlCKE:49.—Advices by the steamship State of Georgia, just arrived from Port'Pickens, indicate that there was not any sickness at the Fort when the vessel left. Two companies of WilsoiVs Zouave.4 had been taken to Fort Jefferson, and regulars from the Fort ta ; ken to Pickens The steam frigate Colo rado was thb only United States war ves sel at Pickens ; all the others of the fleet had gone further south or in search of the Sumter. The weather had been intensely hot on the Island. was no antici- pation of ari attack upon the Fort, bu everything was in readiness for it, if i should be made Adjournment of Congress Both Rouses of Congress adjourned on the 6th instant. This extra cession of the Thirty seventh Congress has been, in many respects, the most remarkable of any which has been held since the adoption of the Federal eon. stitutioa. The circumstances under which it assembled, and the fact that eleven Stoles of the Union refused to hove any reprpientation in it, have given it a * peculiar aspect. The urge majorities supporting the Adatinfittra. tion, in both branches of this Congress, ha4q enabled the two Houses to expeaito'btisinekt with a eelerity-heretofere•unknovin Within the halls of the Capitol, The members assembled on the 4th of July, and Congress adjourned' on the pth of August; arid yet, within this brief pericid, more important business has been transacted than. was ever got through _with. hy tim..longest session _ of the National Legislature ever before held. • All the bills which passed both Houses were approved by tbe.President, who yielded a re ,luetant approFat-to that for the confiscation of property used for rebellious purposes.

V.—We stated in our last that the 14th and 15th regiments of Pennsylvania vol unteers, on their return from Virginia, had encamped hero on the.!27th of July, to be •paid off and mustered out of ser vice. There must be. gross negligence or culpable neglect somewhere, that forces these men, when almost within sight of home, to wait two weeks for their money and discharge. The' Government knew when. their term - of enlistment expired, and what points they would be ordered to;• And it would have been very easy to have sent agents in advance, prepared to adjust the accounts of the soldiers with l the least possible delay. We are aware that a large number of men weje to be paid off at Harrisburg and Philadelphia, 'and that time is necessary to make out th€ pay-rolls in pruper form, when such 'duty devolves on inexperienced persons. But. the Government might have guarded against this by prompt action and an in crease of force' in the pay department, so as to avoid even the semblance or neglect ing the men, who had so Willingly vulun teered to defend their country's flag. With some exceptions, the men have behaved quietly. and orderly; and our citizens have rendered their situation as comfortable as possible, by the most pro fuse hospitality. The paymaster com menced paying the regiments on Wednes day, and it is to be hoped that by to-day all the men will have received their hard earned money, and 'started to meet their expectant friends. It requi'res nearly • ninety thousand dollars to pay these regi ments. THE SICK SOLDIERS —Sine() the two regiments of returned volunteers have encamped here, about scvenly of them have been taken sick, five of them have died, some discharged, and about fifty yep remaining, all of whom will probably recover. The pr'evailing disease is' said to be camp fiver, and the symptoms seem to be sore mouth and threat, bleeding at the nose, and general prostration of the system. The ladies of our town, who are always among the first to sympathize with suffering, have acted nobly in this - matter. - Through- their - influence - and energy, hospitals have- been established in the College, Uratninar , Sehool building, and a private house on Pomfret street, where tho'sick are properly cared for by some of their soma-odes and an efficient corps - of ladies, a number of whom are always in attendance to smooth, as none but woman can, the bed of sickness. That,such a large number of these men:should 'get suddenly ill herti,.need' -nOt, be a matter of surprise.
