Send• Tickets to the Soldiers
Let every one of our readera, male and
female, old and young, write to their soldier
friends in the army and enclose two or three
Lincoln Electoral Tickets. Complaints reach
us that the soldiers in many localities had no
tickets at the late election. Let it not be so
again.
Examine Your Tickets
The Copperheads arc sending McClellan
Electoral tickets to the Soldiers, headed
'Union Ticket.' The Soldiers are too sharp
.to be caught by this trick ; still.it would be
well for all to be on the look-out for spuri
ous tickets of this sort. Examine every
name on every ticket, and see that it com
pares with the one tit the head of this paper.
You can then be sure that you are voting a
ticket of the real Union stripe.
The genuine Union Electoral Ticket is
headed With - the name of Motorom AfcMi-
CITAEL. John Wister is the Elector for this
District. John - W. Blanchard is the lust name
on the ticket—but before voting your ticket
see tb it that no Copperheads are smuggled
on the list.
Pennsylvania Eloction
We are as yet unable to give full and re
liable returns of the October election in this
State. The Home vote in the State is ex
ceedingly close and we prefer waiting until
it is officially announced before we give any
more figures. A dispatch to the Franklin
Repository from 'Harrisburg, dated yester
day, makes the Union majority in the State,
on the home vote, 4:3. Another dispatch,
same date, to the associated Press makes a
Democratic Majority of 166. We give both
accounts so that our readers mt be enable to
judge as fairly as possibly of the result.—
There certainly will not be a majority of 200
for either party on the home tote. It is
conceded on all sides that our majority on
the soldier's vote will lie'more than 12,000.
We elect 17 and possibly 19 out, of 24
members of Congress. Th,: new Suit , Sen
ate will stand 10 Union men to 16 Demo
crats and the House 62 Union men to 38
Democrats thus giving us a majority of 20
on joint ballot. Our account with the De
mocracy therefore stands thus: 12,000 ma r
jority in the State. fully two thirds of the
delegation to Congress ; and a majority of
29 in the State Legislature. 1r they can
stand that sort of a victory we rather think

Mass Meetings in the Collin.).
In consequence of the latoncst ~r the sea
son, the Cominittde, at their meeting - last
Saturday, resolved that it would be impossi

throughout the county, and, therefore, agreed
upon the following plan: To hay.‘ four
meetings in the county whbth th neighbor

bring about a most gratifying result in this

JAMES A. DUNBAR,
Dar Where are all those boasts of victory
with which the Copperhead ilapers abounded
the day after the election? Where is the
80,000 majority claimed by stlr. Ward the
Chairlhan of their State Central Committee,
when ho telegraphed Belmont, "All's well
enough ?" Where is there a gain of Congress
men' and State Senators? Do let us have
.some information concerning all these lost
goods.
UM,. Many Union votes were lost at the
late election for want of thorough assess
' monts. Let no vote. be lost in that way, at
the next and final struggle. See that ever✓
Anion nicin is assessed without delay, and
especially see that. the soldiers aro assessed.
gel,. The result of the State election shows
that the Copperheads were well organized.—
They brought out their full vete by organiza
tion, and must do the same.

M'CLELLAN--NOT THE CHICAGO
Hundreds of men in the Democratic
Party, whose constant devotion to .the
Union cause has won for them the name
of patriots, support illoCLELLAti,ou his
'own record bait repudiate the platform
of their party. The shameless abandon
ment of every principle of honor and
patriotism by their party leaders has
filled them with indignation and sorrow.
They dehounce the treasonable utteran
ces of the Chic:4,o Convention and treat
with scorn any imputation that they are
the advocates of the treason so openly
proclaimed in its declaration of princi
ples. They support McCLELLA N be
cause' they believe he honestly intends
to preserve the Government and defend
it from the attack of traitors. They re
gard his speeches and letters as conclu
sive evidence of his loyalty and as pledges
that his devotion to his Country will ena
ble him to shake off his disloyal sur
roundings and with manly independence
and noble disregard for party dictation
devote his entire energies to maintaining
unimpaired the honor of our Country
and the integrity of her institutions.
There appears to be even yet a blind
idolatry of McCLELLAN, that causes
many honest patriots to support him, who
detest the platform on which he is placed
and regard the success of the principles
and policy it announces, as the destruc
tion of our last hope of triumph or even
of safety. They IbFget every thing but
the man. They insist that the platform
is a mere nullity ; and that MCCLELLAN'S
own record does more to indicate the po
licy of his Administration than any dec
laration of principles his party may
make.
Do men, who thus try to reason them
selves into the belief that they can sup
port him consistently with a sense of duty,
really understand McCLELLAN's position
in the Democratic party. He has never
been a leader in it. Ile has never for a
single day dictated its action or its policy.
Previous to his appearance as a military
man he was without even a local reputa
tion in politics. Among the party that
now claims him as its head, few had
ever heard of him and certainly none
cared for him. When the party wanted
a lawgiver it did not seek - MeIIt,ELLAN ;
when they desired a defender and ex
pounder of their political principles they
chose another than he. They made their
platform and announced their policy
without any regard to his record and in
direct conflict with his expressed opin
ions. I his nomination was the desperate
resort of politicians, who were compelled
to take him :es a candidate, in order
to avert the defeat that they knew
awaited a party committed to their prin
ciples
Is it pretended that the meeting of the
Chicago Convention was only for the
purpose or ittuniitatin g mcuLELLAN ?
If 4o why did they attempt any thing
further ? If MeCLELLAN's letter is to be
considered the declaration of Democratic
principles why was the I 'hicago platform
constructed ? his West Point Speech
and his letter from Harrison's Landing
:LUC expositions of true Democracy, why
were they not adopted as a platform by
the Chicago Convention' Are the bids
of a candidate for the Presidency . , to be
regarded as of more importance than
the solemn declarations of all the dcle
g.ates of a great party assembled in Con
vention ?
Tiles:nue men who nominated MCCLEL
LAN, indite,' the Chicago platlbrin and
announced it to the world as the princi
ples by which their party and their can
didate should be governed. They were.
as fully authorized to' announce their
principles of their party as to nominate
a candidato. Indeed the making of the
platform occupied the greater portion of
the time of the Convention and was re
garded as its most important business.
All .the members would have heartily
supported any other nominee, while not
one-half of them woad have submitted
to any change whatever in the platform.
McCLELLAN'S interests and those of the
Democracy are identical. His success
restores their party to power. His prin
ciples are of little moment. The men
who control his party will control him
and force him to adopt the same principles
they forced on the Chicago Convention.
The present condition of our Country
is much too critical to trust any man
whose surroundings are disloyal. Men
who regard the managers of the Demo
cratic Party with distrust should vote
against their candidate. If Vallandig
ham and the Woons are committed to
treason_ they can drag McCLELLAN into
scheme's as easily as they'secured his no
mination. There is no safety fur the
Country except in the 'overthrow of the
faction that has during the whole war en
couraged the rebellion and opposed the
Government.
,MaILELLAN's nomination
was made to insure the success of these
men and by his defeat alone can we hope
to crush forever their power to assist
those who would destroy our Govern
ment. •

As it was once fit that we should fast in
hope, so it is equally appropriate that we
should now give thanks for the realization
of that hope so far, and the promise there is
of its complete fulfilment. It is unnecessary
to recall all there is for, justification of joy ;
it lies on every side and marks the differ
ence between 1860 and 1864. We are ad
vancing that is to cny , the Union is gaining
strength over armed traitors and every po
litical opposition which either seeks to retard
the final victory or to clog that victory with
conditions which would leave the whole bat
tle to be fought over again. There is abun
dant cause for gratitude to the Ruler of all
'events, and it cannot be doubted that the
President's recommendation will be very
widely observed.
THE WAR AND THE CHRISTI
ANIT Y OF THE LAND.
The N. Y. Times thus ably discusses the
spiritual phase of the great conflict:
It is a most significant thing that the re
ligious and no element of the nation
is precisely the element which is strongest
for war. The fact is indisputable. It is
not only manifest to every main within his
own sphere of observation, but it has its
official proof in the emphatic resolutions,
approving the war, which have been adopt
ed by nearly every great ecclesiastical or
ganization, wills entire, unanimity. It
found an irrepressible utterance in the annu
al meeting of the American Boars of For
eign Missions, the other day, in Worcester,
the largest religious association in America,
when this fact being announced that out of
more than one thousand missionaries abroad
there was not one who \Vas not sustaining

gathering of four thousarid clergymen and
laymen from all parts of the North, united

fifty religious newspapers in ti.: loyal States.
Nine out of ten of them are out-spoken for

How are we to account for this extraordi
nary accord in the support of this war by
mod who preach n religion of pence ?
President LuccoLx has, as his opponents
say, kept the country in this sea of blood
without necessity or reason, how should it
happen that the very class of the community
which is trained to leave the greatest abhor
rence of blood, should ho the very class that
most unitedly sustain' him'.' lies some sud
den blindness seized them, that they can no
longer distinguish between good and evil
Are their hearts turned to murder, that they
should cling to the dripping sword, rather
than except the olive branch ? The religion
of this land is no such mockery. It sustains
this war,, because it has always been accus
tomed to estimate law as the vital force with
out which no Government, either human or
divine, can exist, and because it well under
stands that force alone can save law when
law is defied. It discerns that there is no
such thing as compounding with rebellion
withmit sacrificing law, and that all the
peace that could be gained by any of the Ni
agara-Chieago devices would only be a delu
sion and a !mare. It . yearns Tor peace with
nn intenSity nowhere exceeded; but only
for that trtie and solid 'ponce which a vindi- .
cited Constitution alone can give. Moreover,
it has the heart to abhor ( slavery as it de-
serves. It finds a joy in:the prospect of the
absolute and final destruction of slavery,
and has been drawn with all tho greater con
fidence' to Mr. LiNbOLN, because he has not
spared that accursed source of all our woos.

burned over two thousand barns filled 'with
wheat, hay, and farming implements, and
over seventy mills tilled with flour and
wheat. This was done by orders of Grant,
himself, commander of all the Yankee ar

order to destroy everything in the valley
that will sustain life. The lien work is still
going on. Now, it is an idle waste of words
to denounce this sort of war' We have
simply to regard it as a practical matter,
and ask ourselves how it is to be met. There
is ono effectual way, and the only one we

'General Sheridan dealt a terrible blow to

a great majority for Auraham Lincoln in

word upon another subject'. Something
said by the Secretary of State, in his recent
speech at Auburn, has liecri. construed by
sonic into a threat that, it. I shall be beaten
at the election, I will, between than and, the
end of my constitutional tern:, 'de what
k may bin able to ruin the Goverfithent.
Others regard the fact that the Chicago Con
vention adjourned sine die t but to meet again,
if called to do soliy . a particular
as a intiteation of the purposethat if their
nominee shall be elected he will at once seize
tlie control of the Government. I hope the
! , ii?fal people will permit themselves to suffer
no uneasiness on' this point.
"I am struggling to maintain the Govern
ment, not to overthrow it. lam struggling
especially to prevent others from overthrow
ing it. I therefore say that, if I shall live
I shall remain President until the fourth of
next March, and that whoever shall be con
stitutionally elected therefor, in. November,
shall be duly installed as President on the
dth of March next, and that, in the interval,
I shall do my utmost that whoever is to hold
helm for the next voyage shall start
with the best pvible chance to save the
ship.
This is due to
tine people both on.princi
ple'and under the Constitution. Their will,
constittt ionaliy expressed, is the ultimate
law for all. If t boy should deliberately re
solve to mace immediate peace even at the
le4s iil•tiwir iib..rties,.l kno w not the power
or the right, to resist them. It is their own
business, and they must do tie they please
with their own. I believe however, they
are still resolved to preserve their country
and their liberty ; and, in this office or out,
I ant resolved to stand by them.
" I may add, that dn this purpose to save
the country and its liberties no classes of
people seem so nearly unanimous as the sol
diers in the and seaman afloat. Do
they not have the hardest it? Who shall
(1112 lit while thoy i'o not? Gel bless the
