In another part of this paper will be
.an roimn tlu r.Wt;..:i ,C i
thia county. This was not considered a
uartv oueation in the State, nor did the !
State Central Committee nor any Demo
cratic newspaper in the State, urge the
people to vote on either side of the ques- '
tion. Partisan Abolition papers advoea- j
ted this measure with extraordinary ear- J
nestnes. and endeavored to make the i
vote on it a test of loyalty or treason, j
The Democratic party began to suspect j
that there was something at the bottom
of this, beyond their new bom zeal for
the soldier. It was u!vay3 the doctrine j
oi me j.emocraiic party to exten t the
privileges of the elective franchise as far
aa possible to the white race ; twenty-five
years ago a Democratic legislature of
Pennsylvania, with a Democratic Execu
tive at their head, extended this right of
voting to soldiers in the service of the
United Slates. This right had been ever
fince accorded to ihem by the Democratic
party until a Democratic Sheriff had beer,
declared elected by the aid of the soldier
rote. This same Abolition party attack-
iue cousuiuuunauiy oi the law and .
succeeded in getting a decision of the Su-
prcme Court against it, nd also in oust-
...1 t . . f . -ml
ins; thc Sheriff who had got elected by th
soldiers' vote. Thc Abolition party never
before showed any liberality in extending i :, . i ii i

could prevent it permit thc soldiers to vote
now, if they thought they could not use
that vote for their own base paitisan pur
pose. Thc Democrats of this County knew,
that that was their object, sind were de
termined so far as this County was con
ivrncd, the Abolitionists would not dic
tate to them what to do. De-ides ihei-

j TLe liepublican conference, after their
i protracted labors, have nominated A. A.
j liarkcr, Esq , of this liorough, for Con
j grtss We trust that our County will be
j remembered in the nominating conference
j which will shortly take place by the Dem
j ocratic side of the question. Yc would
be much rejoiced to have the two con
gressional candidates in this county, so
that they could watch each other ; tho'
if the conference decide otherwise, we will
euhmt aa eracefullv as we can. To be
i successful, a heavy part of the work will
j be left for Cambria county to do. Mr.
j Barker is a strong man and can run well,
I to this we can personally bear testimony.
As to his strength we have seen it tested
by lifting the 5G's of the staler of weights
and measures, and if we reccollect aright
there was not a man in town stronger
than he. And as to hi5 running, we were
present when he entered himself for the
first prize at one of our agricultural fairs?
and there were only two came out ahead
of him at the first heat, and we believe
that if the condition had been to run the
best in three, without any rest or rubbing
down, that his chance would have been
I good for the first prize. With these pre
j liminary prestiges, ho turned his attention
! to Congress, and has now succeeded in
i getting the nomination from that model
paity- We will handle him gently until
his competitor comes into the field, and
then we will scrutinize both their qualifi-
cations for the highest law making power
in the country. He may have qualifica
tions for that office that we are not aware
of, and we will patiently await their de
velopemont. lie may be like our friend
Peter liort man, who, a few weeks ago.
como imo our otiicc, ana in me course oi
conversation, told u.s that he had received
,m pxceIIent Plication along the river
Ilhine, where he was brought up; we
come into our office, and in the course of
asked him what became of it. lie told
us he had given it to his brother who was
going out west and would need it there,
and as he was to r side in Cambria coun
ty, he did not require it. We had not a
word further to say. So Mr. liarker
may have left his congressional accom-
! lillliinfinfa in tin g f Af oinn vi-ltli
Pome friend to whom they would be of
service, as he would not require them
here in Cambria county
We will not
treat this matter verv seriously at the
V1, uvl'X'l it is hard for us to realize
it, and we will attend to it in the future.
If we lr.cddlo the milk now, we can't get
the crc.im ;
" No tune to sw:q horses in crossing a

Congress,
Whatever may be said of the oi.i'ldate
of the Abolitionist:, for Congress, they
have done Cambria county but justice,
She has never yet had one of her citizens
in (Jonjrrosi3-, ilurinjj the sixty years of her
existence.
AVe trust the Democratic Conference
will also concede the man to Cambria.
If the Abolitionists with a majority of
1,000 against them in this County get the
candidate, how much more should tl e
Democracy with that majority in their
favor !
But tho Ix;wistown True JJttnucrat says
that neither Huntingdon nor Cambria has
presented a candidate. Neither has Blair
nor Mifflin, say we. The convention in
ti,osc Counties has not even been called
yrt. (;ooi1 IUCM in uIl thc Counties Lave

and go umnstructed. They were not .ap

carry out the best interests of the party.
They will doubtless present a man, not
inferior in capacity or popularity to those
that may be presented by the other Coun
ties. They will we doubt not, urge the
claims of Cambria county by all fair and
honorable means ; and, we trust, will
" have their claim allowed."

Governor Curtin.
Governor Curtin is out in two procla
mations, calling on the people to organize
for the defence of the State. The procla
mations are very ambiguous. The men
are called out for the emergency, and get
transportation, uniforms and equipments
from the United States. We can't tell
what disposition will be made of these
emergency men if they were collected to
gether in the State. But it is likely they
would receive the same fate of the other
brave soldiers of Pennsylvania gobbled
up by the Secretary of War and sent to
help Grant. Our State, that was once
the pride and Keystone of the Union,
since the incumbency of our present Gov
ernor, has become, so far as defence is
concerned, a mere province of the United
States The Governor, who should have
a well regulated militia force at all times
at his command, sufficient for the defence
of the State in any emergency, seems to
have forgotten that there is any such
clause in the Constitution. He cries to
Lincoln and Stanton, always, when the
rebels make their periodical visits to our
fertile State. lie sometimes calls on tho
Governors of New York and New Jersey
for relief, and theso copperhead Govern
ors did not withold it from the loyal
Curtin. Lincoln and Stanton could not
spare one man to save the State of Penn
sylvania from ruin, notwithstanding they
had
got from Pennsylvania regiment upon
nenf, and bataHion upon batallion,
. , .
j regimen
ana ncsnies her sous are scattered around
among every regiment of the federal army,
Not a Union soldier to protect her soil
from invasion. Who is to blame for all
this? Are the rebels to blame entirely
for these incursions ? They are certainly
j to 11 ime for acts of vandalism arid cruelty
t to 1 1 ime tor acts ot vandalism ami cruelty
j when thv commit them, because no ac-
! lion of our soldiers, however baso and de-
!
j graded, even is a justification for acts of
barbarism. They have burned down a
great part of that beautiful and opulent
town of Chambcrsburg, situate in that
fertile valley of the Cumberland. They
had visited it twice, before, and behaved
as honorable warriors would do: took
what they wanted, und destroyed noth
ing. Put at this time thev declared they
would give them a small taste of the mode
of General Hunter's warfare. It is not
to the rebels we are to look for protection,
it is to the Governor, and there is. no ex
cuse for him whatever. Why does he
not now, after Pennsylvania has been
thrice disgraced by the rebel vi-its with
as much impunity as if they had the war
rant of Abe Lincoln in their pockets, tell
the Administration that they should not
have another man from our State until
her own soil would be protected. He is
the executive of a sovereign State, or
once a sovereign State, and holds his office
with as firm a tenure as Abraham Lin
coln does, none of them would be there
except by the provisions of the constitu
tions they are now trampling under foot.
Perhaps Curtin likes not to disoblige
Lincoln and Stanton, as the latter boasted
it was he elected him, as he sont thirty
thousand soldiers to Pennsylvania at the
last gubernatorial election to vote for him,
and he had only fifteen thousand of a
majority. Could he only spare five thous
and to watch that war path near Cham
bersburg, we would not have these peri
odical humiliations that we are getting so
well accuf tomed to.
ar Sens.
The Confederates have again crossed
the Potomac. They advanced in two
columns. One body crossed at Hancock.
Averill tried to prevent them, but was
not able, and ran away, with a loss of
seventy-nine nun. Tho ntl
crossed the Potomac at Shepardstown,
ana captured llagerstown. They ad
vanced (o the Pennsylvania border, but
did not cross. Gov. Curtin calls out the
militia for State defense and the State
service. There is nothing doing at Pe
tersburg. Picket firing has almost ceased
there.
The capture of Atlanta has been a
failure. Tlie greater part of General
Stoncman's division of cavalry was cap
tured on the raid on. the railroad at At
lanta. The Federal loss was. twenty
seven hundred, killed and captured, with
all the wagon trains of the expedition.
This is a synopsis of the news so far as
we have it. We must have more men
ami more money.
es-Mr. and Mrs. Brewer, of Wayne
county, Ivy., have twenty. two children.
This is perhaps the most extensive brew
cry in the west.
Election Returns.
Iielow you have the election returns in
this County. In another column we have
spoken of them according to our own
opinion. It will show you that the peo
ple are alive to their own interest with
regard to the elections hereafter. No
person told them to vote cither for the
amendment or against the amendments.
15ut it is to be seen in every Democratic
township in the county they voted simul
taneously against the amendments, with
out knowing what any portion of the
State was doing on the subject.
They saw that the administration of
Lincoln and Curtin was in for them to
the death, and that was sufficient f. r
them to take the alarm because they
knew that never was the party that went
in fur the country. They knew they
went in for themselves and let the country
go to the dogs.

The recuperative power of this country
are extraordinary, we believe if they had
peace and the Union, that the nation
might still survive. Time and energy
and industry might worm through the im
mense national debt. The evil effect a
rising from the infringments on the in
dividual rights of the people, the suspen
sion of the habeas corpus, the arrots
without trial and without jury, through
length of time, might be entirely forgot
ten, except as a curious remeniscence.
like the blue laws of Connecticut. The
wickedness and cruelty of this adminis
tration, and their unliounded extravagance
would he nearly obliterated in another
generation. The malignant legislation
may he swept from the statute books
which these abolition invaders of the
constitution have passed for the last three
years Lincoln's proclamations may be
remembered in execration of his memory.
In centuries hence, all that mischief that
aoolition has done, may be only a matter
of hi.-tory Elect Lincoln again and thc
nation dies, and with it dies forever any
effort to establish a popular government
on the face of the globe. We have no
doubt the abolitionists will try to elect
him ; but they are sewing the wind to
reap the whirlwind.

years 1 The right of speech, the right
of a free press, the right of free elections

that great writ that is most valuable and
valued by every people in every country
having a voice in their government, all
set at defiance, all repudiated, all denied,
under the specious pretext of a "military

The m:sn who deserts it at this nlarmiv'

should be discarded by his fellow man.
1 lie time is come, when the bo.lv of the
American people, must asert their own

and animated by a sence of their dutv,
they will not surrender ih.-ir birth-rihi to

duty of the magistrate transferred to th 1

er military spirit to command it, and
though last not least an Administrati n !
that has violated every law and prine'p'e
of constitutional right, so much that it 1
has become odious to the whole body of i
the people from such councils we can !
expect no remedy except poison, no re- j
lief but death. Some very "loval" man '
liepublican or Abolitionist may say, 1
" What has our President done to" forfeit j
the confidence and esteem of the people." i
I answer, the President has not been lion- j
est or truthful to the people, upon any j
measure of his administration, but es- j
necially has he been false to every mom- ;
i?c and nlediie ho nindi nnon tlip ?villivi,f
the war. In his message July 1, 1 80 1,
he states that the powers and duties of the
Federal Government relative to the ritrhts
oi ine ruites ami people umier the C on-
stitution, should be preserved ami admin
istered as it was admin' jred by the men
who made it that coercion, conquest or
subjugation was not to be the object of
the prosecution of thc war.
On the 23d of August 18G2, in his
letter to II. Grcely, he says: "My para
mount object is to save the Union, and
not cither save or destroy slavery. If I
could save the Union without freeipg any
slave, I would do it. And if I 'could
save it by freeing some and leaving others
alone, I would do that." In the procla
mation of freedom issued on dm vl..
18G2, he says, "That hereafter as' here
r . i ....
toiore the war will be prosecuted for the
object of practically restoring the consti
tutional relations between the United
States and each of thc States, and the
people thereof, in which States the rela
tions is or may be susjended or disturb
ed." In his letter to the Springfield con
vention in 18G3 he repudiates the ocject
of the war being for emancipation, he
says, " Whenever we shall have c onquer
ed all resistance to the Union, if I should
urge you to coutinue lighting, it will be
an apt time then for you to declare you
will not fight to free the negroes."
Abraham Lincoln Bays duly 18G1, to
whom it may concern "ant; proposition
lcftich emirates the restoration o' caec, ttc
integrity of the whole Union and th aban
donment of slavery, will be met by lilieral
terms." From the fort-oinir declarations

manner, the President did not mean?
