Ki.,We publish in another column'the
Ball fora so:called Union Convention.-
- :While haying no.. sympathy with "the
peTeraent, and being determined to op
' pose : it with all the power and influence
; we can command, we yet think it nothing
more than simple justice to giie them,
- with` all others, the use of our columns
for the publication of matter of a legal
or general character, so long as ours is
the only paper in the county..
The resolutions of the call are- some-
what .paradoxicai ; while stating that they
desire peace and harmony, they fling In
tuits into the face of men who are as good,,
as hinest, as faithful, and as free from
suspicions or disloyalty as the men Who
'drifted the "Union Resolutions" - ; saying,
,in the words of the circular, "if you de
sire you [the people] can select Men - who
will serve the people and not the philan
thropic officeholders who talk largely and
vote . away your'seeuriies," and who Fare
preparing to make. money out of your
taxes.and mine." Who are voting away
the securities of the people? Who are
making money tint of the, people's taxes ?
These are brdd assertions, but not so
broad but what (they can be reduced to
the simple propositions :s that some of our
past and present office-holders have del
frauded the people : that some have 'do.
lated their oaths and failed to protect the
'thing entrusted to them. We always ex-.
petted that there were men enough who
'ere trilling and anxious to relieve the
people of Abe burden of holding office,
but we seareel2.,' thought men would stoop
so low and so far forget honest.manhood
as to call their neighbors the hard names
used by •many citizens" in their call.
This "many citizens" sounds a little zi(ii
culous to one in theXorough the day the
call - was made out. We saw no very
"many-citizens" on - the street, nor heard
of very "many c4izens" meeting together,
we opine that werC:the whole truth de
- Rimed we would: see that the "many citi
zens" contained in the call, referred pri
manly to a few of our old-line Democratic
friends in town, who no doubt, thought
the word Union would be t a very good
hobby-horse on - which to ride some of
their people•loci'nv, patriotic, Black-Re
publican-"hating Demoeratic friends into
'
''ln most of the counties of the State
1 • -
Chore are straight-out Democratic tickets
' in the field, and especially in the coun
ties 'Where the Democrats are in the ma-
Aprity--and, if 'the- Democrats in their
aquatics can run straight-out tickets,keep
firmly fixed theft. party lines, and reject
alldffiliation with Republicans, refusing
them places of political preferment, why
:latlt s not Republicans possessors of the
same privileges'? "Sauce for
_the goose
,iwkistfee fur the gander." •
Neither are the resolutions such as•will
tend to harmonise the two contending
parties
.at home. The Republicans of
Potter county deem the men placed in
. nomination by them,.as capable of filling
the - positions for which they have been
selected, and filling them as faithfully
and honestly as any who will or oan be
selected by the pseudo-Unionists. It.is•
a strange timo for making a Union pro
position to the dominant party of Potter.
It would have'sounded much better and
little more 'honest a month since, but
that was not in the programme of the men
who have assumed the calling of a Union
Convention. They • seek, to put a' wrong.
construction :upon the actions of men who
desire the security and faithful use of the .
people's moncy • as much as any Democra
tic caucus can. And as to love for the
UniOn, and - wishes and efforts for the
oilerthrow of rebellion, they : are - full as
,hopest in tfie Republzear(ranks and among
the men . who acted inlhe Convention,
ns among those who have tahen.exception
'to t •ir course. We would advise every
Republican of the county, while they
deiiy the right of any to thus question
their loyalty, to remain true to the prin
ciples of the Chiiago inatforinJ the
4 overthrow,of the Republican party is the
main hope 41151 the only end for which
They
hopeopponents are now working. They
hope that in the contest now waging be
tween Right and Wrong, Liberty and
Slavery, Government and no.Governinent,
I
they, may disarm

prepare the countr or a chanc , e of feel
ing such that in e contest of '64„whieli,
as Time's swift wheels Jolt round, will

L
overthrow the free sentim tof the' North
I against - the blighting curse now r ininz
l our country and establish upon its
' fall a stronger Northern sympathy for the
aecursed thing.
, , ,
Republicans beware I Have nova
to do 'with anything of the kind. You ,
have a good ticket in the field. From
President Judge to Coroner there call be
no men found more suitable for the posi
tions to which you have nominated thein; I
Some of them aremen-who have served
you, and who dare call them unfaithful ?
Stick to your principles. Stick to the
I men you have agreckkpon; every man
at the Delegate Election or in the•NoMi
nating Convention, or whose name was
before that Convention for nomination, is
in honor bound to support the nominees.
Where is the policy of having a party, of
belonging to an organization, if while re:
!.aining your position in its ranks, yoi do
not seek its best•ftood and aid in adVan
'ping its mea.,nres. After the election`,
the, then who now call upon you in such
sitch:touching and pretty tones, will laugh
at your defection and sneer at you for
the hate with which you forsook pripci

hatched by Democratic politicians. If
principles are worth anything for Peace,
they must be' sacred when War coLeS

[For•the Potter Journal:]
ED. JOURNAL : We had'a lively gath
.
ern% of the redoubtable. Democracy in
. our Borough, ast Saturday. Upon the
abuntenauce cif each and every one of
them was depicted burning aniety for
the salvation of our imperiled country,
or some other subject of vital importance
to the people. On inquiry we soon learn
ed, that it was only the assembling of the
Democratic County Committee, to - delib
erate upon the.subject of "whiskey", :The
cabal nietln • the Sheriff's Office, and or
osnized. On a call• of the towns,' Elijah
Johnston answered for Pike; Versel Dick
enson for G-enessee; Philander Read for,
Pleasant Valley; Niles White for• Eul- '
lie ; John R. Smith for Coudersport; and
five orsix others of less prominence in
the party were present. It is rumored
that two professed Republicans, seeming
ly were, acting with the, cabal, but they'
played-some shy, whether from a hatred
of Democracy or Whiskey is not ; fully
known; :but judging--,--fram'their antece
dents, I infer that aloe was afraid of the
Whiskey and the- other the- Democracy.
After several- licaTraliberatien, the off
spring of thb -cab _was the 'notice circu
lated • thiough the county, christened
"Union Ticket." It is really gratifying,
even at this last hour,. to find that alarge
majority of those present at the said
meeting, have seen the error into which
they-had fallen, and instead of,'sympathiz
ins with, and talking treason, are now for.
the ()Won Ticket.- .The same cabal that
wet here last Saturday, would have-spurn
ed a proposition cowing from,the Re, pub
licans.prior to their Convention; l to-',unite
Upon a platform and candidate. Their
trickery is too naked and shallow . to' de,
ceive any- person, however credulous.
They ]now, and- we all know, that there
can be found no *more loyal or better
Uuort men in the country, than every
candidate placed in nomination;by-the
Republican Convention ; and in the pro
ceedings of said Convention, all Union
men are cordially invited to unite with
us- in 'the cleetion'of our candidates.
.
Why did.net-those
. committee gentle
men, as is usual,.append.their'signatures
to-the call of the "Union Ticket": Con
vet4ltin, that the people might know who
they are ? The gentleman who drafted
the
,proceedings and rm , olutiona of this
Democratic Committee, and_ who talks
about "hackneyed politicians,"bas se often
Pressed
° himself before the people that he
has-become odious. God have mercy on
our Union'tfit has to rely on sueh.p4tri--
ets as him for its preservation. Wlty did
they not come out frankly, and state their
real design 7 Why did.they not resolve,
that their purpose was to. elect Judges .
who would license every deggery in the
county to sell whiskey ? railing tofia
this, if they had only affixed the names
of every one present, to the call for a
'‘'Utlion.TiCket" the people would have
understobd the trick. OBSERVER.
The Harrisburg TelegraPt, , says that
among other Unionists dri4n out of Tex
as, is Gen: David R. Porter, formerly
Governor of Pennsylvania, who has re.
turned -to Harrisburg, and is • probably
dying from slow disease and his sense of
the country's, condition. Twenty ears
ago, few men swayed more influence than
pov.l Porter.
VirThe news of the week is not of
very great importance. It is thought
that we will Ihaie lively work in a very
short time. The following news items
we copy, giving them as we received,
them, not vonehinm for their, truth or
having reasons for disbelieving them :
The pirate Sumter is reported lost,
gone ashore at Trinidad.
WASLEINOTON, Sept. 12, IS6l.—Gem
Stott received a dispatch from Gem Ito
zencranz at O o'clock this evening, giv
ing the' following particulars of a fight
with tloyd hear the Gauley Bridge:
Gen. Rozencranz was reconnoitering in
force, vben he came upon the enemy,
and a brisk engagement ensued. Our
forcks were preparing to attack the-ene
my's ;front and flank him, when night
came n, and our men being exhausted
after fhe.fighting and a forced march of
seventeen miles, were drawn behind` a
ridge in linMof battle, and slept on. their
a s all night.
1 • In the morning, Gen. Rozeneran) found
i"that the enemy had retreated across Gau
-1 ley , Bridge, burning it after crossing. Our
I forces then qok possession of the enemy's
camps ; capturing several Rebeliltwo stand
of colors, subsistance stores,( and camp
latiuipage. ;Our loss was 20 killed and
100 wounded The enemy's loss was not
aseertained but it is believed to ,be con
siderable. I The enemy had five regi
ments and sixteen pieces,of artillery.
CLARKSBURG, Va., Sept. 13, 1861.
The RebelS commenced an advance on
both pikes yesterday morning toward Elk
Water and Cheat Mountain Summit.
They succeeded iu surrounding the fort
on the Summit, and cut the telegraph
Wire. Theircoutinued to advance on Elk
- Water until within two mild of our troops,
when a few shells from Loomis's battery
dispersed them. Skirmishing - was then
kept "up all night.
This morning tiro regiments were sent
to cut their way through to the summit
and succeeded, the Rebels retreating, in
all directions.
Two - .l.lchel officers spying round the
camp at Elk Water this morning were
surprised by our pickets and shot. The
body-of ond was brought into camp,rand
it proved , to be that -of Col. John A.
Washington, of Mount Vernon. •
A heavy blow was yesterday dealt to
the traitors in, Maryland by the arrest of
the ten Baltiinore delegates to the Legis
lature, Mayor Brown, Ross Winans , Hen
ry 31ay,:and two editors—of The Baltc
more Exchange and The . Baltinzore
South. These arrests were ordered by
the authorities at Washington,, and were ,
quietly made, although - great i excit6ment
prevailed in the city.
We commit no impropriety in announc
g that the preparations for two import
ant,. movements against the Southern
coast are going rapidly forward, so that
the expedition will be ready to set sail
within a - very few weeks. In one of them,
the land forces will probably be under
Major-Gen. Butler, and in the other, tin
der Brigadier-. Gen. Sherman, who IS now
in command of the important camp at.
Hempstead, Long Island. We believe
that the number of troops of all arms em
ployed in the two will- be abkut 2:5,000
men, with naval forces of—prop tionate
strength. Precisely what places
be assailed - we do not know, and would
not state if we• did; but we may safely
infer from the magnitude of the prepara
tions that the objects of attielr are points
of importance, , and that the bittws to be
struck are-intended to be felt with crush
ing effect in the very centre of the rebel
lion.--•f7 y.. Triburre, Nontlay.

TICEiET.
At a meeting of citizens Feld at Cou
dersport, without distinction 61. , part,y, the
following resolutions were presented and
adopted
• I?cNolred, That we deprecate the late
sectional and party Convention held at
Coudersport, as evkricing a disposition,
and having a tendency tc prevent harmo
ny of opinion, action and feeling to put
down the great rebZilioa, now being wa
ged against the National Government.
I?esolvcd, That No invite all g ood
Union citizens without distinction ofpre
vions political preferences, to meet in
their respective townships on Saturday,
Sept. the 21st, 1861,. and elect two
del
egates to meet in a Convention to be held
in Coudersport on Wednesday, Sept, 25,
1861, at 4.o'clock ,p. m.
We are all anxious re put down Sec
tionalism and rebellion in thK great Na
tional contest. But the party leaders
here that manage your conventions and,
are preparing to make money out of your
taxes and mine, must keep up their hack-1
neyed party, organization, and the time
has arrived, and an oppottunity occurred
1107.0 not "hereafter" as the resolutions in
their late Conventions say, when, if you
desire, you can select officers who will
serve, the People and not the philanthrop
ic office holders who talk largely and vote
away your tiseurities. Let us act to cor
rect the, abuses and clean out' the un
dean. Let us have - a full Convention of
determined Union men—men . who will
act and do foi• the People.
