JAMES A. IMNILIR, Chairman
VS. The "soldiers's friend- " had a,p ecu
-4 liar wayil showing their friendship iiikh is
borough on the day of the election. About
the middle of the afternoon thirty-four sol
diers stationed at our Garrison—each man
holding between his thumb and fore finger
the full Democratic ticket—approached the
East ward window to vote. They were at
ODCQ confronted by Mr. Torn, who challeng
ed every man of them. The most trifling
informality as to residence, Le. was
,used in
argument against the soldiers by Mr. Topn,
who finally succeeded in having nearly all
their votes rejected. Only fire, we believe.
of the thirty-four soldiers who attempted to
vote, succeeded.— Volunteer.
The thirty-four soldiers above referred to
were members of the permanent party of the
regulars nt the Garrison, who have seen about
as little service as any other tliirt3 -Mur men
who are wearing the L'. S. uniform to-day.
There wasn't more than half of them who
were American citizens even by naturaliza
tion. We are not saying this disparagingly,
for we respect a soldier who is in the service
_ of our Country and in the perforinance of his
duty, whether in Carlisle or at Petersburg,
and_our respect for him is in no wise dimin
ished, because his birth-place was not our
own land, but we mention this fact merely to
explain the circumstance that they were all
Democrats. If they had seen several years
service in the field and had been legal voters
they would have been about as unaniniowdy
Republican. At least, we judge, so from the
returns coming front the 111110", a few of
which we publish to-day.
But "Mr. Tonn succeeded in having near
ly all their votes rejected." Plainly speak
ing this is not true. Mr. TODD raised the
question as to the legality of their votes. The
election officers, two-thirds Democrats, re
ferred the question to Judge ORAILIM whose
decision was as favorable to the soldiers as it
could be under the law. Under it the offi
cers rejected all but four or five and here the
matter ended.
As the Volunteer has raised this subject,
will take this liberty of saying that a more
eihameless and deliberate attempt to stuff the
ballot box with illegal votes has born seldom
known, even in the history of the Dcnioornt-
is party. It was a niiiorious fact that most
of these men hadn't a shadow of right to
vote and didn't even claim to have. The
men who were iiianitging the affair lc how t tort
their voting was a fraud and an out rage im
a community in which the voters hail not
even a nominal residence. Yr t they did their
utmost to get the votes in. They uw tint
taken to the \,u•th iddlcton polls with the
hope that their votes would be taken by the
Democratic officers there before they wen ,
noticed or objected t,,. They fail, d then ,
and then made a rush for the East Ward
with the same intention. Fortunately,
however, their designs were discovered
in time to " spoil their little gaiPe."
We are not finding fault with the soldiers
for trying to vote. They were told they had
the right to vote and we do not believe they
would have offered their votes if they had
known they were illegal. But we denounce
the men who induced them to attempt it.—
Men who will get thirty nine to otter their
votes, when they know there is not a legal
voter among them, show a capacity fur knav
ery and fraud that would make them service
able to any species of villainy. Those who
insisted the votes of the soldiers should be
taken did so for the purpose of getting thirty
votes into the box more than there were
voters in the Ward, and mutt of them did
it knowingly. If they had attemped to fal
sify the election returns or stuff the boxes they
would not have been acting more dishonora
bly than they did.
fie - If a party that wants to put down
the rebellion can't put it down, how soon
will a party. put it down that don't want
to put it down ? If the men who are pledg
ed to spend the last man and the last dollar
before they acknowledge the Confederacy,
cannot save the Union, how do those expect
to save,it, who boast that they have never
voted a man or a dollar to prevent traitors
-from destroying it? If we cannot trust the
men who have borne the burden of this great
contest, would it be wise to' change them for
ann. TillollaVO neither experience in the work
nor desire to see it successful? What would
be thought of a suggestion that Grant's vet
erans should be'disbanded and their places
.filled with volunteers composed of the guer
illas of Missouri and Kentucky, the , rioters
of,fialtimore• and ,New York or the,Top
'perheads 'Of Indiana? It is very possible
that such an arrangement would alose the
war for the, Union pretty quickly, but how?
Just in the Siam? manner that the success of
the Democracy and the elevation to power
of, 'Pendleton; Vallandigbarn, Voorheett,
t SoymOur and Harris %wield end it. By 'the
destruction of our Governpient—the success
of the rebellion—the perpetuation of slavery
. and the eternal ruin of our Country.

This organization met on Satfirday
evening laSt. The crowd certainly wasn't
large but then it was unquestiondblir!:!-
speetable. A more quiet and nidetly
political meeting we never had thn.ple'F-,
ure of attending. Contrasted with; the
meeting held on the Satin-Any Osifirig
previous it was in fact slightly
Gentlemen kept their seats and main
tained a gravity and decorum quite com
mendable. We confess the lack of noise
and enthusiasm surprised us somewhat
as we had been reading in the Age and
Il'brid some very magnificent accounts
of Democratic gains and victories 'and
had expected to see our friends exult
ing and jubilant. But for some unac-
countable reason the Democracy couldn't
realize tiat their journals had been tell
ing the truth about these successes.—
There was an evident feeling ofdespon
deney- in the crowd that the news of vic
tory don't frequently produce.
At the proper time the meeting was
called to order by the chairman of the
Club who proceeded to make a speech.
He evidently appreciated the gloomy
and desponding condition of his friends
and therefore was as funny as a man
well could be under the circumstances.
Ile congratulated the Club on the mag
nificent victories the party had achieved
on bite Tuesday previous. We thought,
lie had made a capital joke and were ex
pecting the audience to burst into laugh
ter but they wouldn't laugh. lie then
told them that they bad carried Penn
sylvania by from five to ten thousand
majority. This joke was taken as sober
earnest and brought forth sonic little
applause. The speaker claimed that the
great liepublican majority of last year
had been obliterated by the triumphant
Democracy "as the ocean sweeps away the
This struck us as being rather
a strange assertion. We remember that
every Penmeratic politician in the State
has insisted for a whole year that Cur
tin's majority was obtained by sending
home some ::o,tit)o soldiers to vote. It'
wt:; the case, and our friends wouldn't
like now to deny it • we think it consid
erable Of a question as to which is the
ocean and which the straw. , .
The 1 In - liana election however must be
plained away and )l r. Shearer went at

Abraham Lincoln
rttzi rr % Last week we published a speech de
livered at Macon, Georgia, by Jell*. Davis.
The arch traitor complains that two thirds
of the rebel armies are absent without leave
and that 'affairs in his Confederacy ate in
rather a gloomy condition generally. This
is rather unaccountable. Our Democratic
friends here say that the President's Eman
cipation measures and the Abolition policy
of the Administratibn, have' driven every
Southern man into the rebel ranks and made
them determined to fight to the very death
for their independence. But how do our Cep
rerheads account for this demoralization
and desertion in the armies of the South ?
Negroes are emancipated—they are employ
ed in our armies, not only as servants and.
teamsters hut are actually pitted against the
chivalry as soldiers ; the constitutional war
polidy of the Gunbdat General has been dis
carded and everY measure adopted which, ac
cording to Democratic authority, was cal
culated to make earnest'and determined sol
diersof the rebels, and yet we have Mr. Da
vis complaining 00 two , thirds 'of his armies

which we carried on our late canvass, There
will be a meeting of the County Committee

very much of the work yet to be done will
depend on personal exertion and activity.—
Our enemy is disheartened, but desperately
determined. Let not a feeling of security

the Union for an instant relax our eflbrts.—
Let every man use Iris influence on the side
of his country and humanity, never feeling
that he has done all he ean, but always wil

this matter Cumberland County will go fur
towards being redeemed. r We will curry the
State in November election by at least thir
ty thousand, and how proud we can then feel
if we contribute our full share to the glorious
result.

The Effects of Speculation

there such a scarcity of 'money to meet the
operations of business ? IVith inflation, mon

Our It of friends now claim
that McClellan election is ceriain. Their
immense "gains" in Pennsylvania, Ohio
Indiana, C'onnecticut, Delaware and Maine
make it a sure thing that tiny will carry all
these States by unheard of majorities. New
York, New J, reey, all the border States and
all the North %\ are also morally certain
to vote for Little Mac. By their calculation
Lincoln can't possibly carr . i any but the
New England States and scarcely all of
them. This is certainly a must delightful
prospect for the General and the hungry
hordes who are'eagerly expecting his patron
age. But now as it is all secure why don't
McClellan resign his commission. He has
held it two full years without being in any
service whatever. 'While his chances for
Presidency were at all doubtful we didn't
much blame him for holding on. But now
that the splendid sta. cessuf his party in Penn
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana, have secured him
the grand object of his desires we think
he might give up for a few months a com
mission which ho holds from an Abolition
Administration. Strange that some of his
friends who have such entire confidence in
his success don't advise him to such a course.
Ettsp,.,, The Democracy claim that they have
carried the State on the home vote but are
fearful that the soldiers' vote may change
the . result. This comes with a rather bad
grace from them. They have always claimed
that the Democrats all went to war and that
the Abolitionists skulked at home. They
claimed that nine soldiers out of ten would
certainly vote for McClellan. They have
given results of informal ballotings every
where throughout the army all of which
have been largely Democratic, but now
strange to say, they fear their majority will
be overcome by the soldiers. This would be
amusing if it came from any others than
Democratic politicians but from them, even
the manifest absurdity and open lying of
their first statements are not surptising., : To

who has had an experience or many years as
the leading railroad manager at the Wei-t,
and in that capacity raw McClellan often,
and knew hint thoroughly, spoke as follows
of his character in a late speech at Columbus:
"Gen. McClellan doubtless possesses per

men 1 ever knew. Ile once belonged to the
fraternity of railroad 111011; but there never

think of setting up such it man to negotiate
with. Jell'. Davis after his party shall have
compelled an armistice! They would keep a
man at the head of the Government, who,
but for one failing, might have settled this
war more than a year ago. But, alas I he
had the, weakness to listen to the whispers of
the rascals; about him who said to him, 'man
age this war to suit us and we will make you

"As to the nominees at. Chicago, I shall
say nothing but this ; McClellan's general
availability as a candidate is undoubted ; his
willingness to run upon a genuine peace plat
form commits him fully as to his future..ae

sociation with Mr.,Pendleton, of Ohio, whose,

In PENNSYLVANIA, the old Keystone

In INDIANA. where the Copperheads made

their means abundant, and their efforts mark

The stake for which you are contending is
nothing less than the honor and the life of

Official Despatch from

WAR DEP A HT)! ENT, WASHINGTON, Oct. 17
-9.-10 P. M.
Major General Drx :
Advices from General Sherman to the
evening of October Iti indicate that Hood,
after ' struck the railroad in the neigh
borhood of Dalton and Resaea, has fallen
back before Sherman without lighting ' aban
doning his groat movement upon our line of
communication. He has torn up some fifteen
miles of the road from Rosaca north, but
the injury will be repaired without difficulty.
The interruption will cause no inconvenience
to Sherman's army, as his stores of supplies
south of the break, as well its north of it,
are ample. Hood has retreated towards the
southwest. His rear left Dalton in haste at
sic o'clock on Sunday., morning.
