Our Ticket
Ever since the meeting of the convention
which formed the ticket at our masthead,
the constant succession of exciting and in
teresting events, connected with the war for
the Union has so overshadowed every thing
else, that we have hen prevented from giv_
ing that attention to the gentlemen compos
ing that ticket, which custom, and their in
trinsic merit would seem to have demanded.
We hasten however, to improve the first op.
portunity, which a lull in the storm of war,
has given us, to discuss the merits of the
different candidates. ,• -- - •
Of the State ticket we have already spo
ken at length, and feel that the question tas
been so clearly put between the two tickets,
on the questioMof loyalty, and sympathiz
ing treason, that there is no longer any
room for debate as to the plain duty t r the
patriot citizen. lf, indeed, additional argu
ment was wanting; we need only point to
the traitors address of the Secretary of the
Democratic CO State Committee, as the
platform upon which its candidates are
placed, to induce every loyal man in the
land, to raise his voice in execration of its
insuraent suggestions.
Next comes the congressional
Our Congressional conference leaves nothing
for as to do but- publi,h its proceedings,
which will explain themselves.
KIRK HAINEs, our candidate for Senator,
is a merchant of New Bloomfield, Perry
County. He has heretofore most ably re
presented our old district in the legislature,
and while there, liy his honest raid fearless
course, earned the respect and good wishes
of honest men of all parties. He is a straight
forward upright man, upon whose skirts
there rests no Euspicion of disl6 , ality or
treachery, His opponent, Geo, H. Dueller, of
this county, Deceived the nomination of
party on about 1001st ballot. Dr Crawford,
the candidate of the Douglas men of the
.district, having been slaughtered to effect
-that_ end: -We believe HA INES be (lee
ted over Bucher by a handsome majority.
For Assembly, we have lIMIY SNYDER of
of Newville. Major Sc Y ER is well k 110Wn to
the eiti,:ens of flue upper cud of the county,-
where he has resided we believe all his life.
To those who do net know him, we would
say that he is a man of unexCeptionablo,
character honest, and 'capable, and will most
faithfully represent the views and feelings of .
all men in favor of a vigorous and earnest
prosecution of the war upon the basis of
President Lincoln's recent proclamation.
We have a United States Senator to elect
next fall, and it is of the first importance that
such a man as Major SNYDER should be clue
ted. Turn out to his support.
atvto ltuosos is our candidate for Com
missioner. That office has long needed a
change of regime and there never was such a
favorable opportunity of accomplishing it
as just now. Mr. RHOADS is just the man for
the plane. Bringing to the work a mind well
trained to business, by a life devoted to it, ho
would add that soundness and clearness of judg
ment, which has so lung been wanting in that
office. With Rnonns and MILLER, control
ling that board there will be such a clearing
out of the oobwebs as will surely prove bene
ficial to the interests of the county.
HENRY B. llocu, GEO. SWARTZ, DANIEL
MALIBT, and JACOB RIIEEM, are all good men
and true, and in every way. morthy of our
support
If York county is bigger than both Cum
berland and Perry in Democratic votes, as
its conferees say, it does not send big num_
hers of soldiers from Democratic districts,
as for example : Codorous tp., with 347 en
rolled for military dnty, sends 8 men ; North
Codorus, With 407 sends 22 ; Heidleburg,
withl4o9, sends 30 ; Jacksos, with 230, sends
5; Dover, with 458, sends 23 ; Paradise;
with:l99, sends 2 ; Hellam, with 334, sends
28; ShfeCvsbury, with 394, send 33 ; Wind.
sor, with 309, sends 20 ; Conowago, * with
208, sends 0.; Franklin, with 214, sends 10 ;
canon, with 158, sends 5 ; Manheim, with
197, sends 4; This is a sample. Gen. Draft
.wants 2000 more soldiers in York county.
Hope he'll get them soon.

aspire to anything higher than the position of
a _private, believing this to be tho proper place
for him to discharge the duty 'ho owed the
commonwealth and the nation. The most.
charitable view possible to be taken of the
conduct of his opponent in that hour of peril
admits of but two interpretations. Either he
failed in his efforts to secure a position such
as would relieve him of the more onerous
duties of the soldier, or he had no desire to
participate in the good cause, and discharge
the solemn duty which every loyal citizen,
for whom it was possible, owed to the common
wealth and the nation in that most critical
week—had he been in real earnest there was
no impediment to his enrolling his name in

hand, one whom all regard as competent, and
one who went quietly, under a sense of duty,
to endure the hardships of the camp, while
his opponent remained at home, with fine op•
portuni'des for button-holing, and electioneer

THE TREASON UNMASKED
We ask the attention, says the iiorllt
American, to the resolution now openly
avowed by Francis W.. Hughes himself, un
der his own name, as having been prepared
by him to be offered at the Democratic State
Conve, tion, in February 1861. It will be
perceived that it argubs in favor of the se
cession of Pennsylvania frontthe Union and,
her additon to the donation of Rebeldom un
der the auspices of Jeff. Davis. Yet this is
the author of the address of the Democratic
State Committee which wn have been
asked to believe loyal and patriotic. We
stigmatized that infamous document as
emanating from a treasonable source, and
as having treasonable objects in view. Here
We see the objects standing forth in all their

THE TRUTH PROM RICHMOND
--TROUBLEIN THE CAMP.
Thereillit'one - paper in Richrtiond' 7 =the
Examiner—whioh says what it - thinks, and
truly represents the condition of affairs in the
llebelr, army. If the army r , 4t13 a reverse it
says so, whilst - the Dispatclar
and the. Whig
claim erery.defeat a victory, and eyory retreat;
a strategic movement. Thhq,it will be seen
by extracts from the Richmond Whig in our
columns to-day the recent battles and move-
Meats of General Lee are characterized as vic
tories.
We, however, received last-evening a copy
of the Richmond Exathiner, of ths,23d, which
after reviewing the accounts given in the
Northern papers, and the rumors that had
reached Richmond, says: "There is but little
doubt of the suffering condition of our army,.
when we consider how much its numbers must
have been reduced by losses in battle and the
disgraceful straggling on long marches, and
how little was contributed to its numbers and
spirit by what appears to have been a cold
and sinister recepet ion in Maryland, where we
had been led to expect, from what had been
told us in Richmond, the flocking of fifty thou
sand men to our standards. We may even
imagine the necessity of a retreat in the situa
tion-our army would-find itself-after-the-battle
of Sharpsburg—two hundred miles away fitful
Richmond, short of supplies, and in a territory,
which, if not hostile, was at least cold and
averse to our troops. Despite, however, these
difficulties, we are unwilling to believe
that any portion of our forces have:crossed
the Potomac with the object of retreat, but
are persuaded (hat such movement., if it has
been undertaken has been merely to provide
against a flank movement or such new
complication as the enemy might attempt."
The cold and sinister reception" was what
every nano man in Maryland assured them
they would receive before they started. Those
who have flooded Richmond with letters in
viting this invasion should now hang their
head with shame at this writ hing rebuke from
the living victims of their deception, whilst five
thousand of their dupes cry from the graves
(hey have found on Maryland soil, and ten
thousand more arc groaning their maledctions
from beds of pain and suffering.
The Examiner refuses to believe that General
Lee has fallen back across the Potomac, and
publishes a rumor drat he was persuing Mo•
Clellan towards Frederick on Friday after the
great battle of Wednesday, in which 'it places
Implicit confidence.
In regard to the battle of Wednesday the
Examiner pays a high compliment to General
McClellan which wo hope will receive the
attention of Govenors Andrews and Sprague,
and all those who would attempt to dim the
lustre' of the gallant leader of our ardatt.:
We"giVe this portion of the article entire:
' .. "One thing only remains to ho explained.
It is the determination and vigor of McClellan's
attack on Wednesday. It is admitted on all
sides that the battle on 'Wednesday was one
of the most sternly contested of this war; and
it has been seen with surprise that the Federal
troops were capable of making such au effort.
The troops under McClellan were the veterans
of thd Federal - force. The - ninny that fought
Lee was a consolidatiowcf the remnants of the
old army of the Peninsula. Pope's beaten host,
13urnsicie's - army of occupation, and the guard
of Washington and Maryland. Some now
regiments were probably intermixed, butthey
were few. The mass of McClellan's forces
consisted of trained troops; but with all these
advantages it must be admitted that they
exhibited a fighting power on Wednesday
unexpected under the circumstances.
"These troops had been broken by the
battles of the Chickahominy: they had been
completely demoralized by the management of
Pope, and by the tremendous beating lately
received at Manasses. It is a matter of stir-
Prise that they were capable of an attack so
persevering and determined as that which
they made on Lee last Wednesday,--and it can
only be explained on the supposition that
General McClellan retained the confidence of
Federal troops, in a degree with which no
other Fedral commander could compare. But
if, as 4 ,we rPow believe with much more assur
ance than on yesterday, this last desperate
effort to retrieve fortune and bar the door
to the invasion resulted in a sanguinary re
pulse, if not an absolute rout, it is easy to see
that a retreat into Virginia by the whole of
General Lee's army would be an extraordinary
and incomprehensible consequence."
Wpilst discussing the true state of the miser,
that 3.,ee has returned tMross the . Potornac,Oe
Faunliner Bays:— '
' '!Tbehews of the - great battles in Maryland,
given to the public on yesterday was anything
but satisfactory. At tho head of the finest
armies the world 'over saw, occupying o;ro*.tif -
the strongest position that could be oorictived,'
chosen at-leisure-by himself, General-Lee-had. !
fought'a trentendous battle.. lle maintained
his ground; the enemy retired from the field
and from the attack during: the night. The
Confederak3 General remained master -of
place all Thursday, without molestation from
McClellan. Then it was on authority appar
ently indisputable, that. General Lee himself
withdrew from- the soil of Maryland, and
retired to Virginia. The first of these facts
being supposed true, the sequel was insuf
ficiently:justified by the-explanatiousproposed;
and the sews, taken as a whole, ()rutted doubt,
and uneasiness."
It then proceeds to discuss the contradictions
of this rumor, and supposing that General Mo•
Clellan is in flight towards Frederick, ex , dams:
Results,
.the most Nr&lsed:ld . and solid, may
be anticipated from a new persuit of McClellan
and nu engagement with his army after an
affair like that of Wednesday. Whatever their
material condition, the morale of the Northern
troops cannot now be otherwise than complete
ly shattered Nothing HO breaks the heart of
men and armies as the failure of a final effort,
made with all force, to server the links in a
chain of misfortune. If, then, General Leo is
indeed in pursuit of McClellan, and has fallen
on him again Friday, as is now believed, we
may await the story of the result with most
justifiable and reasonable hope:
We would like to read the wails of the Ex
aminer two or three days later, when the true
condition and position of the great Rebel army
was ascertained. •
Dreadful Collision on the Cumber-

On Friday morning last, about 7 o'clock, a
horrible railroad accident took place on the
Cumberland Valley Railroad at Bridgeport,

A SODDEN DEATIL—It was with the most
intense surprise and deep grief that we learn
ed yesterday of the death of Dr. T. A.
Spottswood, Second Lieutenant in Company
F, (Captain Herr's company) 21st regiment
hwa Infantry. He was taken sick about a
week ago while at Camp Franklin with the
measels. This disease was in a fair way of
being conquered when he was taken with a
congestion of the brain, and this resulted
fatally. He was a young man much liked
by his friends, and his sudden death will be
a severe shock to his old associates. He
was a member of Company "1 " in the im
mortal First lowa Infantry. In response to
the new appeals of our government he en
listed with Captain Horr, and become his
second Lientenant. Ho was very popular
with his men, and his loss will be felt very
much in Ids company. He died at his
uncte's irv.the country,at 4 A. M. yesterday.
Dubuque Times, Sep. 13.
Lt. SpottsWood was native of Carlisle,
where he has many relations and friends to
mourn his sudden death.

A PROCLAMATION
WIIERAS, It, had become necessary to call
into service not only volunteers but also
portions of the militia of the states, by

existing in the United States, and disloyal
parties are not adequately restrained, by the
ordinary processes of law, from hindering
this measure, and from giving aid and com

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDERED ;
First, That during the existing insurrec

pressing the same, that all rebels and insur

PENNSYLVANIA SS
In tho Name and by the Authority
OF THE
COMNIONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA,
ANDREW G. CURTIN,
GOVERNOR OF THE SAID COM-
M.ONWEALTH
A PROCLA ATI oN
WHEREAS, The thrdatened invasion of
Pennsylvania by tIM rebel army has been ar
rested by the prompt and patriotic response
of loyal men of the state, and the si , nal
victory achieved by Gen Meelellan's army
on the Antietam.
And whereas, The alacrity with which the
people in every section oldie Commonwealth
rushed to the rescue of their brethern on
the Cumberland Valley border, is worthy of
the highest inettsure of praise. Although
trot required by the terms of the call to pass
the borders of the, State, our brave men, un
sued to the rigors of war and untrained in
military movements, not only entered Mary
land,,but held Hagerstown against an ad•
vauciug foe, pressed forward to ihe Potomac,
and resisted' the threatened movement of the
rebels upon Williamsport until troops in the
United States service arrived and relived
them. Their timely and heroic action has
saved the state from the tread of an inva
ding enemy, whose necessities made even
military strategy subordinate to plunder.
Now Therefore, 1, ANnakw G Cuwris
Governor of the Commonwealth do hereby
order that the troops called into the service
of the State by General Order No. 116, be
discharged, and that they be sent to their
homes as r pidly' l as transportation can be
furnished, and in the name of our mighty
State, and in behalf of our threatened peo
ple on the border, I tender them th,o• grate
ful acknowledgments of a restated Common
wealth.
And I recommend,- that, the companies
hereby discharged from active service, should
take prompt measures to preserve and per
fect their organizations, aml.that new ones
should be formetilin every county, so that
they may at all times be ready to answer
the call of the State should their.-services
again be required. Arms will be issued to
them as soon as they can 'Make regular re
quisitions in accordiance with law, and the
companies lately in the service of the State,
will be preferred to others, should the sap
plyttot_ be equal to the demand,lt- con
fidently expected, however, that all organ
ized men of the State can be promptly and
properly armed.
Given under my hand and the Great Seal of
the State at Harrisburg, this Twenty fourth
day of September in tho year of our Lord
one thousand eight hundread and sixty

fir:gm'Oii Saturday, Oct. 18,1862, John
Scllenberger, Sr. will sell a limestone farm
of 70 acres, situated in Monroe township, 4

with muslin, considerably soiled, having
the name of F. B. Clouser, written on the.

NARROITESOAPFL—A few dayfrsieee;,-:
a farmer employed by Mr. Zug, was plough
ing in a field in the neighboroood of the
Barracks, when a ball came across from
that direction'and passed through his hat
cutting the hair off close to his head. We
have heard of several occurrences of the
same kind in that locality; soldiers should
be more careful.
A GunioSlTY.—Mr. Goo. Mr. - Hilton,
has a peach tree on his premises, raised from
a seed planted two years ago; this season
it bears twenty four fine peaches. This is
something new for fruit growers in this sec

MILITARY NOTICE. -1 he Surgeon and
Commissioner for Drafting in Cumberland
County, Pa., will attend at the following
places for the purpose of giving those per
sons (none others) who volunteered under_
thi; call of 'the Governor to defend the State
of Pennsylvania, an opportunity of stating
their claims for exemption from the perfor
mance of •military duty, viz:
At Centreville, on Tuesday, 7th October,
from 81 o'clock A; M. to 4 o'clock P. M.
At Shiremanstown, on Wednesday, Bth

took pl;too - orGnieeda.y, and Wednesday even
e_oe.pes were Well arranged, the
'greasing. excellent anif'everyttiing conducted
in ifityliply creditable to thoseconcerned.
The yout tind'beauty of Carlisle were assem
bled, and we saw more female lovliness than
we ever imagined could be found in our time
honored Borough. Our space will not admit
of a criticism on all the scenes, but we must
say, that in our opinion, " The Sultan" and
the " Feast of Roses" can not be surpassed'.
Great credit is due to the patriotic lady man
agers who have spent much time in this good
work. The exhibition will be repeated, by
request, next week.
FIG EIT.—On Friday last we were
treated to a fight in the neighborhood of our
office. A soldier got off the train while it
waited at the depot, came to the liquor store
of Mr. Shower, asked-for whiskey, refused
to pay for it, and threatened to "maul" the
clerk. He, the soldier, was rather roughly
handled and was put out with his ear split by a
gentle application of a bung driver. Tho
police tried to arrest him, but having received
a re.enforcernent, he•resisted. At this stage
of proceedings the train started, and stopped
what might have been a serious riot. ,The-sol
dier who raised the fuss was put in limbo for
twenty four hours, and the following day,
started for home a wiser if not a better

A " SOCIABLE" IN NORTH STREET
On Sunday night last, four 11. S.- soldiers
from the Barracks, entered a house in North
street, oecupied by Mrs. Von VEILEN as a
refreshment saloon, and proceeded to " tear
things generally." They destroyed some of the
furniture, and treated a citizen of the neigh
borhood, who was attracted thither by the
noise, to a tap on the " 1 ug" with a pop,bot-,
tle, ,which made him see more stars than'ever-.
shone inthe quiet fikios. Such " innocent
amusements" not being agreeable to the
neighbors, the services of Sheriff RIPPEY were
called into requisition and the rioters were
pla'cced in durance vile..
roarThitcw inventions have appeared lately,
that will perhaps, ultimately revolutionize
those branches of industry they are deligned
to effect. One is an engraving machine, which
produces on steel designs from surfaces, either
flat or in relief, with marvelous fidelity.. The
seoend is a spiral trowel, which, when attached
to a plowshare, outs a round hole, so that, in
a few hours, a-permanent drain is formed the
processes of ploughing and draining going
on simultanoausly.- The third is a trifle, but
a useful trifle. It is a match whioli cannot
be ignited by any spooks of Motion nor by
fire itself, but only by-being rubbed aginskthe
side of the box prepared for its reception,
whioh is coated with the flame giiing property.
