To 'the Union Men of the County.
On next Tuesday you will again be called
upon to attest your devotion to the princi
ples you have constantly professed , during
the trials of the last four years. It is true.
that the danger to our Government, which
has been so apparent during that period
of bloodshed and civil strife is over.--
Armed rebellion has failed most signally to
accomplish its designs. Our institutions
have thus fur triumphed over both their open
'and tseeret foes. Patriotism has proved it
self too great for treason, and the love ol
country has proved to he 1111111 any
Other feeling ki,Wil to tall' ell:I/.11S. But
although victory has perched on the national
banner, and although tin arnied hosts of
treason have been s.•.ittnred t the winds,
and are 1111 W pi oNVITIO , s t d aught against

stitutions now which is more formidable
than was even treason The traitors
of the South had a purpose which they tittem
ly and boldly avowed. It Wll , the destruc
tion of our fret/ institutions and the erection
of a nation founded on oppression and Nos
lice. Their designs wore heralded to the
world. Their organization was unmistak
able, open and defiant. They staked their
lives upon the issue and were willing to sac
rifler, their dearest interests to advance their
cause, infamous as it was. Their boldness
however, did much to save us flint destruc
tion. Battles, invasions, ears-f tr the safety
of our lives sod property forbade even the
possibility of indifference to the progress or
result of the conflict. The issues constantly
forced themselves upon the attention of our
people in a manner that rendered it impos
sible that they could be neglected. But now
a• danger threatens us which is even greater
than rebellion. A great party seeks to accom
plish by professions of loyalty upd devotion to
the Constitution, what treason sought by in
surrection and civil strife. Power is as dear to
the Democracy as it ever was to the leaders
of the rebellion, and they are just as unscru
pulous as to the intlins of obtaining it.—
With the loyal North they well know their
, time for ascendency is over. They turn in
desperation to their old allies, the late lead
ers of the Southern rebellion. To conciliate
them and secure their co-operation in a re
stored Union is the means by which they
hope to raise themselves from the hopeless
minority to which their disloyalty has re
duced them. From their former pandering
to the dictation of their' Southern masters,
we can easily cor ceißer with what readiness
they will obey their future commando. The
restoration of slavery; the remission of all
punishment oft ebels ; the assumption of the
rebel debt ; the repudiation of the war debt
for the Union ; the restoration of promi
nent rebels to power and place, are not too
much for men to demand who have ruined
our country by their treason, nor is any or
all of these too much to be . conceded by the
hungry hordes of the Derimeracy as the
price of•their restoration to pdwer.
The party which opposes us has a record
• of shameed ignominy such ns would for
ever destiFy any organization that had any
moral life in it. Its last Administration suf
fered treason to rend the country in twain,
without putting 'forth a single effort to'pre
vent it. ThO leaders of the rebellion were
men who. had always • borne rule among
them, — and - upon — whom they had showered
their honors without stint. The strongholds
of treason were those states which never
once swerved from their allegiance to the
Democracy. In those states in which an op
posing majority prevented them — from uni
ting with the Confederacy, every encourage
!tient to rebellion and every resistance to its
overthrow was made by its leaders that could
be made without endangering their personal
safety. . They resisted conscription; they
discouraged .enlistments, they depreciated
thenationaleredit„they triagniliedevery rebel
victory and predimed the utter impossibility
of ever-Overcoming treason, and oven when

will maim:One oven more disgraceful if again
entrusted With power, nalco your support on
the grOnn4-that :they, alone havo the Wisdom
and virtue requisite to mould anew_ the pol.
icy of our nation. They risk you to turn
from - pnwer - th - o - se - Wh - OlfaVeibUtiffb - the Gr- -
den of the Government, while their former
and future associates were laboring to destroy
it. Will you give them your support? Is
their past record of disloyalty and hostility
to the Government in its hour of trial and
danger sufficient to convineeyou that they and
they only should he trusted with the destinies
of the nation they have so lately tried to
ruin. Will not the iipolmgists for traitors
whilst they were in arms, be their willing
associates when they become enfranchised?
Will not the party that was exclusively de
voted to the interests of Slavery in : former
yems, be eager to reinstate it if again en
trusted with power? Will nut those who
denounced the war as unconstitutional, seize.
the first opportunity to repudiate t,4 debt
Incurred in its prosecution ? Will men who
betrayed their trust and pludged us into re
bellion five years ago, be any safer to entrust
with power now than they were then ? With
the hitter experience of Democratic imbecil
ity and Democratic treason which you have
had during these last, live - eventful years,
will you again trust a party that uses power
only to destroy our country?
The issue is plainly before you. You can
either place your interests in the hands of a
party, who will restore slavery, reinstate
rebel , to power, -repudiate our national debt,
and hy these means bring our country, which
the valor of our soldiers has so nearly saved,
to irretrievable ruin, or you can continuo
them in the hands of those who have brought
you gloriously through our late terrible con
filet, and who alone can and will restore our
nation to the full measure of her prosperity.
If your perverseness or apathy give the foes
of our country lamer, you will have none
to ememre but yourselves.
OUR TICKET
As the present is our last issue before the
people of Pennsylvania will have recorded
their verdict upon the eventful,issues now
pending before them, it is fitting that, we
should examine briefly, the personal quali

and contending parties.
Commencing with the head of the ticket,
upon the Union side Major General

page in the history of the man who is
asking for the votes of loyal mom IVill he

For Legislature, we have upon the Union
ticket Col. T. •B. Knu - rmAN, of South Mid
dleton township. Col. Kaufman entered the
service of the United States in 1861, ns a
private soldier, and by close attention to duty
and personal bravery, rose to the command
of his regiment. He is honest and capable
deserves to be elected, and can be, if the
proper effort is made. PHILIP Loxu, his
Copperhead competitor, is IS recent importa
tion from Lancaster county, who make's It
home now, we believe, in Newburg. He
succeeded in making an unenviable reputa
tion by the part he took last fall in opposi
tion to the amendment to the Constitution
permitting our absent soldiers to vote. He
then assured his neighbors that the passage
of, thtit amendment would give negroes the
right to vote, and that it - was the duti y y of every
democrat to vote against it. He is stoic ask
ing the soldiers to vote for him. How many
of them will do it?
For District Attorney, C. P. HITMHICIT,
Esq., is tile choice of the Union party. He is
well known to the people of our county, hav
ing once been before them for the same posi
tiA, when he was defe'ated by little more
than one hundred votes, leading his ticket
considerably. His life-long reputation for
prbbity and professional ability will give him
Many votes from the tho opposition._ His
opponent, C. E. MAGLAFGHLIN, Esq., is a
young risen who bases his claims,to the office
entirely upon the fact that so succeeded by
sharp manoeuvring and dexterous tactics in
out-generating his competitors before the
Democratic Conventidn.:. If Democrats will
reflect just for a moment, that While this is
one of the,most important offices in the peo
ple's gift. yet it has no political significance,
they will reject the party man Maglaughlin
and elect the people's man Humrich.
For Treasurer, JOHN Hvintv of Carlisle,
is upon tho Union ticket, and We sincerely

was manager of the Produce and Commission
House of Henderson & Reed, in whose ser
vice ho exhibited in an eminent degree just'
the sort of ability which is sinfaly needed in
the, management of our county affairs. He
entered the, army at, the time of its , organi
zation, and remained in it until the close of
the war, serving with distinction. ALEXAN
DER M ECK, on the L emocratic ticket, is neg
atively a good citizen, who is at present
serving creditably as Lamp-lighter for ono
of the Wards of our borough. He is really
about as well qualified to manage thohusi nese
of the county as he would be fit to be Gover
nor of the State. We have nothing in the
world to say against him, other than that it
would be criminal folly to elect him to an
office for which he is so manifestly unlit.
For County Surveyor we have .Jos Ern
RITN ER, EN., of Mechanic:3burg; for Direc
tor of the Poor, WILLIAM 11. ALLEN, of
Southampton; for Auditor, JOHN STRUCK,
of Monroe, and for Coroner, Jour.: Tuomr-
BON, of Carlisle. These gentlemen are emery
one of them good ci tizen:3, who received their
several nominations by acclamation and also
without solicitation. We are sure the inter
ests of our county will be subserved by their
election.
We have thus considered, somewhat more
at length than we first intentlll,•the entire
ticket, glancing at the merits of both sides
of the question, and we think with entire
fairness to all part;es. If we Issue not suc
ceeded in convincing our readers that the
(aim- ticket is immeasurably superior to the
Democratic, we have failed in our object.—
•But we are confident that we are not mis
taken in what we have writt n, and are
equally certain that if calm judgment. in

majority of the people.

Yes, of course they do justas heartily as
they did last fall, when their hired orators
called them " Butchers," " Lincoln Pups,",
"Lincoln hirelings," "Pumpkin rind pimps,"
and other endearing terms. But they have
nominated them for office. Of course they
did. Where? Its Ohio, whore they never
elect any body. In New York, where they
elect State Officers once every ton years. In
lowa, where they don't have even a party
organization ; in Now Jersey, where defeat
was inevitable unless they did nominate sol
diers, and in our own State, ivhoro Frank
Hughes, Judge Black and Dick Vaux thought
it expedient to bait their political hooks with
a- couple of crippled soldiers in order that
there might be some chance of retrieving
their falle4Sorturies here _lt occurs to us,
there is sodiefhing sublimely mean in a party
that has always abused soldiers, denied them
the right of suffrage, and did everything
they could to bring the war and' all con;
'meted with it, into disrepute, attempting
o raise themselves to power on the services
and sufferings 'of a couple of soldiers. But
when a party is so completely phiyed out as
the present Democracy is, almost anything'
is excusable. By the way, didn't the Sentinel
forget to toll its readers that their party had
nominated Geri. Couch in Massachusetts, and
instance that as a proof of their love for sol

State Politica.
, The-following-proceeding r had-on-tho-6th
day of January, 1864 iu thf Senate of Patin
gylvania, we copy' from page 6of the Legis
lative Redbiyl 1861, as follows :
GEN. U. S. GRANT AND °VIERS.
Mr. Lowry offered the following reeolu T ,
ion:
Resolved by the Senate that the thanks o'
the loyal people of Pennsylvania are due and
are hereby tendered to General U. S. Grant
and the officers and soldiers serving undor
him, for the series of gallant Services and
glorious victories resulting in the liberation
of the faithful Union people ofEasi Tennes
see from a military despotism more galling
than ever was that of Great Briton.
On the question,
Will he Senate proceed to n second read
ing of the resolution.
The yeas and nays 'Were requirel by Mr.
Wallace, and were as follows, viz.
Yens.—fifes re. 011atnpneys, Con el, Dun -
lap, Fleming Graham, Hoge, Householdm ,
Loh son, Lowry, McCandless, Nicholas,
Ridgeway, Terrell, Wilson, Worthington,
and Penny, Spec ker-16.
NAYS.— Messrs. Beardsdale, Bucher, Cly
mer, Donovan, Matz, Hopkins, Einsley,
Lumberton, Latta, M cSherry . , Montgomery,
Reilly, Smith, Stark, Stein, and Wallace-IG.
So the question was determined in the
negative. here stands the name of every
Democratic Senator recur led against a vote
of thanks to the gallant General Grant, who
broc gla the war to a successful close.—
Among the roes stands the name of the
leader of that same party, William A. Wal
lace, the chair an of the Copperhead State
Central Committee, who to-day profess s
such a love for the soldiers, and also the
name of A. H. GLITZ of our own district.
THIMBLE RIGGING
The ' , Beaver Argos" contrasts the 2d res
olution of the ' , Democratic National Con

Pennsylvania" of August, 1865, in a way
that ought to make the face of Buchan/It - Cs

the auth it of the resolution—tingle with
shame to the cud of his days. Look upon
the picture of shameless-stultification, which
the contrast between these two resolutions

—The Harrisburg Tetegruith says :
It is admitted, on all sides, that Major
General Meade's great victory at Gettys
burg, save d Pennsylvania from utter (1. vas
t:mon, itnd no doubt rescued the other Mid
dle told Eastern States from invasion by an
infuriated horde of drunken rebels. Thu
battle of Gettysburg was one of the most
brilliant achievements Of the age, and the
glory which Meade won on that occasion was
shared by every gallant collier who fought
under his command. Yet, in the face of
th e se facts—convinced that Meadc's victory
had saved the homes and ((resides of Penn
sylvania from desolation, blood-stain and
pollution—it was reserved for the Copper
heads in the Pennsylvania Senate to oppose
and defeat a resolution rendering thanks to
General Meade and his army for th it great
service on the battle-field. The folluwir
extract front the Legislative Record for 1864,

position of ingratitude to the soldier :

by ovary hero who fought at Gettysburg:
"You refused to render me a veto of thanks
for servicss in which my life was plit at peril,
and I now refuse to vote for candidates in
whose success your baseq political purposes
are at stake." Such will be the reply of all
soldiers to all Copperheads seeking their
support, because the Copperhead party
,throughout Pennsylvania endorsed the ac-
tion of the Copperhead Senators during the
session of 1864.

WHY THE SOLDIERS SHOULD
-SUPPORT THE-DEMOCRATIC--
PARTY. •
Because it opposed the war from begin
ning to end. .
Because it sustained the rebel cause
' throughout.
Because it eulogized the leaders, statesmen'
and armies of the foe.
Because it never rejoiced over any of our
Union victories
Because - it was invariably pleased with
rebel triumphs.
Because it sent men from the north to
loin the rebel armies-
- -
Because tivo leading Democrats politicians
of New York were con - mending generals in
the rebel army—Mansfield Lovel and Gusta
vus W. Smith.
Because the Democratic National Conven
tion in 1864 pronounced, by its platform,
the efforts of our soldiers in the war only
" failures."
Because the Democratic State Convention
of Pennsylvania in 1805, by its platform,
pronounced the war a " disgrace."
Because the Democratic papers slandered
the Sanitary CommisSlon, which was seek
ing to provide for the wants and comforts of
the soldiers.
Because the party endeavored to increase
the cost of the war to the utmost possible
extent, in order to break it down and let
he enemy succeed.
Because the party defended the rebel gov
erne cat in its refusal to exchange our pris
DIEM
Beeense the party defended those who
murdered our prisoners at Andersonville
and other slaughter-pens.
Because the party adopted every rebel
tale of outrage alleged to have be n com
mitted by our troops during the war.
Because the party magnified all these al
leged outrages, and endeavored to make the
soldiers responsible for them.
ReeaUse the party slandered every Union
general who was in active sympathy with
the objects of the war.
,Beenuse it tried to make the. orld believe
that the rebel soldiers were better and braver
than ours.
Because it exaggerated our forces and di
minisheddthose of the enemy in every con
flict, in order to make it apilear that our
triumph , ' were merely the results of num
ber, and not of skill, bravery or good fit
leg.
Because when he did vote it slandered him
by representing him as voting only undo
flure , s Or to please his officers.
Because it repeatedly sought to nullify Ch
heroic struggles of our F,,,'s4iers by eryin
COMprolliise with tin., rebels.

ileeause it ianight to plunge us into IL for
eign war, in order to render the effort, of•
our soldier, usele,, in the civil conflict.
WHY WORKINGMEN SHOULD
SUPPORT THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY.
Because it is and has been uniformily op
posed to the protection of American indu , -
try, and 1n lavor of a policy \\ Huh gives
the preference to foreign production= and
6ireign industry.
Because without protection the wage , : of
the American operative must always be de
pressed to the lowest possi hi o point, in order
to enable our 1111O1Ofilt•tIll'Orh to colOpett; with
tiO,O or Europe.
Because under the free tra 'e policy, which
the Democratic party strenously urge, on
all occasions, large number of o ur i r o n
works forges, libeit fortunes, rolling mills
and foundriesare oblig-ed to , top work, being
unable to stand a competition with the pau-
per labor of Great Britain.
Because the Domocratic party is ,y,tcniati
cally against the increase of the I * .totory -ye
tem in the United States, on which many of
the wor ki ngmen depend for the'r empky
nwnt, and never neglects an opportunity of
exciting prejudice again , t it as tending to
monopoly and pauperism.
Because this party has always supported
slavery, which rendered labor degrading in
fifteen States of the Union.
Because it supp rted the cause uf 11
tdareowners, who were introducing sinew
nto every mechitn i cal employment. and thus
njured the chances of the white mechanic
o obtain work or good wages.
Because it thus prevented the throwing
open of fifteen States to the free labor of the
north, and by so:inucli prevented the white
workingman from securing better chances
of remuneration in new I,ocations' at the
south
Because it is struggling to ch . ise th is, soutl
emn market for free white labor by aiding
the planterS in their efforts to establish a
systel l n of unpaid or poorly paid black labor.
Because it opposes all efforts to secure poi
manmit provisions for free schools education
at the south, so that the poor white mechanic
tgoina
gth 'for work must bring up his child
ren in i : (mince.
Because in such Democratic States as Vir
ginia and South Carolina before 1865 OM
Irde white working man bad no rights of
citizenship at all, and could neither vote nor
told office unless ho were a property holder.
Because the war was in'progreSs the party
•wised such a furious clamor against the
hree hundred dollar exemption feature of
he conscription law as to cause its repeal,
whereby the price of substitutes rose beyond
the reach of a poor man at once.
Because the party demagogues have can:,
ed the. high price of coal, by fomenting
troubles amongthe operatives in the coal
regions.
Because the party fosters all inflations of
prices, whereby,the wages of the working
man aro rendered of less value Le him than
the lower. wages he had previously received.-
Became the party opposed the homstead
aci;Whicligave to every man Who.,ellose to
settle on and occupy it a farm of one hun
dred and' sixty acres of land as a free home:
stead for hitmelf and his family.
Because the party, for, demagogical pur
poses, systematically endeavor,s to. prevent'
any" sort of harmony between employers
nr d employed, and studiously endevors to
excite the prejudices of the workingman
against his employer, and thus .prevent any
amicable arrangement between the two.
BeCause the party has been uniformly op
posed to the interests• of free labor in 4 the
iminon,se territories of the republic, and has
on all occasions struggled, by legislative
and executive interference, to give, the• pre
ference there to slavery.
Because, had this policy heen successful,'
the effect of it ivou!d have been to close
against tbo frep white workingmen a region.
larger -than the whole south, teeming with
boundless wealth.. •
Because the party:has depreciated the nit:,

SCOUNDRELISM
The- Ogrkisle Volunteer is one of the organs
of the party Which is opposed to "niggeri"
and a protective tariff and in favor of hang
ing STANTON and letting Wtaz go free.—
In a late issue, its editor thus shows his re
gard for truth, his superior cultivation, and
his sense of-manly honor :
"For Surveyor General, the, pie-bald Con
vention of shoddyites and office-holders nom
inated Jacob M. Campbell. Ho, too, the
shoddyites tell us he Is a. military man—a
Colonel—but where ho distinguished him
self, or the battles ho was in, they make no
mention of. The fact is, this Campbell was
never in a battle in leis life. Like too many
Abolition officers, he sported a big title but
failed to honor it. For several months his
regiment acted as guard over a railroad in
Maryland, away oil' from live rebels. Fi
nally it was ordered to the front, when Col
onel Jacob M. Campbell resigned and started
fur his home in Me hilts of Cambria county.
The command of the regiment then devolved
on the next officer in command, the brave
and talented Lieutenant Colonel John P.
Linton, who led it into battle, and no Penn
sylvania regiment fought harder or more
desperate."
It is in this way that the friends of Mr.
LINToN are seeking to accomplish his else
tine. They persistently insist on traducing
a brave soldier, who not only led his regi
ment on more than one bloody field, but also
gamed by his skill and resolution the hearty
approbation of his superior offiyirs. They
insist just as pertinaciously in according lion
, ors to Mr. LtlvroN which belong alone to
Mr. CAMPBELL. It is not possible that
scoundrelisin such as this can meet with any
other reward than that which it so justly de
serves—the contempt and condemnation of
an indignant people.
But ire are not done with this subject.
We desire to call attention to a very grave
phase of it. We have already alluded to the
.act that, the Chairman of the Democratic
State Central Committee, in his address to
toe people of the State, has given currency
to the shameful falsehood, many times ex
posed in these columns, that Lieut.-Col.
LINTON led the 64th in the battles of New
tuu•ket and Piedmont. Mr. WALLACE S
ilddrQSB was publi:lied entire in the -Johns

THE AIIRICULTURAL FAlLt,—The Ex
hibitioh, next week, of the Cumberland
CourtY Agricultural Society, should not only
attract the attention, but receive the hearty
encouragement of every,fai;mer in the rout, ty.
The Fair will open on *ednesday morning,
and close on Friday evening. As the coming
Exhibition will be the first we have had since,
the fall of 1861, every farmer, every friend
of Agriculture end its interests, should turn
out now to make up for lost time. If he
-should happen-to have nothing himself that
he considers worthy to place on exhibition,
he can at least gear up his carriage and bring
hig.iiito and children to'sco.what others con,
tribute, and so participate in the enjoyments
always incident to these groat rural , anniver
saries. Tho County Fair should be an object
of commanding interest to every intelligent
farmer, for we hold it, that no intelligent
farmer, or any member of his family, can
participate in ono of our exhibitions, without
acquiring some new ideas acid suggestions
that will prove useful in'the management of
the . farm. The young folks of . the farm, and,
tho farmer's wife also, aro specially entitled
to the enjoyments of aflay at the County
Fair. Thero . is no place or occasion whore
they can spend a day so agreeably and ra
tionally with tieir friends and acquaintances
as at the Agricultural Exhibition. And if

CHANGE IN THE MARKET HOUR.—OH -
Wednesday last, the "winter arrangement"
for our markets went into operation, and
hereafter the markets will open at 12 M.,
instead of among the "wee sraa' hours ayunt
the twat' " This arrangement will hold good,
we believe, until the let of April next. We
hope this • change will be agreeable to all
pm ties, ,aid that we may hear no more coin -
plaint about rising at 3P. M. The noon day
arrangement will enable all our citizens to
supply themselves with marketing, and com
pete successfully with hucksters and forestal
lees for choice articles.
While upon this'subjeet we may mention,
that while our market is generally supplied
with an abundant stock of almost everything,
the prices demanded for all the necessaries
ol life have been most exorbitant. This has
been true particularly with regard todiutter, -
venders being scarcely content with receiving,
the city price for that article. The rem( dy
for this is in the halid , i of the ecnsumer, as
butter is a luxury which can in a great mea
sure be dispensed with. A little abstinence
in this respect would probably bring the ven
ders to their senses.
ASHLAND CEMETERY.—According to
an announcement in another column, this
new Cemetery will be dedicated, with appro
priateceremonies, on Sabbath afternoon next.
A suitable: address will be delivered. The
public is specially invited to be present.
As this Is an enterprise in which we are
all more or less interested we hope to see a
goodly number of our citizens in attendance
at the Cemetery grounds on Sabbath neXt.
Although as yet in its infancy, the Ashland
Cemetery bids fair to be a complete success,
and so Mr has more than realized the most
sanguine expectations of its projectors and
friends. And we see n0:1.y.) . od reason why it.
should Ind be a success. Almost every vil
lage in this section of country has its public
cemetery, beautifully laid out, hal.dsomely
urnannmtud, and carefully kept and tended,
to which the living point with pride and ven
eration as the last resting place of their de -
coaseil kindred. And Why should our an
cient borough" be behind towns of smaller
growth in showing its respect fur thedeparted
dead 's' NVP should long since have had an
appropriate putilic ccmcfcry, in which every
citizen could own It 101, which he might ifil
pr4,v., and eaulify at_ pleasnry. In a few
