Our subscribers lose' biathlniby
the JOURNAL stopping for a week or
two. They get the full lumber of
copies. - _
There is no news from the war of
-tiny decided importance. Some akir:
mb3hes of more. or less; influence, in Most
411,50 f which our arms have been success :
Winter quarters are , hinted at on
the 'PcitOinac. The bombardment .of
- , Charlestoll'has again begun. The armies
vit•Chattenooga remain in about the same
cooditions• ,An engagement of: consid:
,nra'bie numbers at Lookout Moutitain re:
Aitiatllti,in, a signal defeat to the Rebels.
larThe House of Representatives at
- Ifirrisburg is again in the hands of the
TTtiion party,, and of course a Speaker
`''from our side of the House will; be oho,
ten. We have been looking up thp record
11. little and find that the "Northern Tier'
'dounties havnnot had that position for a
great nuMber of years. Thisis not fair;
. Our section of the State , is. looked to for
Jithe largest majorities, and during,,,hci
liast.ten , years it has not, been looked td
vain:. Our - vote is always right,
, matter what petty local quarrel is seven{
4tig.the Ticket in 'other - sectiona. This
tbeiog the case we feel that we havnclaima
.;.co ,r the position : whia should berespect;
We - therefore present to our friends
the name of the Hon. A. G. OLMSTEDJ
'of this county, as a suitable candidate for
~.that position. He has served one term
in the House, where by his industry, in.l,
tegrity, and ability be won the respect of
all, In mental qualities, much. above
the ordinary class of members, he could
mot fail of being an able ant) efficient dui
cer. Just-ad upright in his dealings
with all, men, no fears would be enter{
tained as to th 3 course he would! pursue;
mot only towards members of cur own
party, but towards all having business to
'do with that body. His private eharaci,
- ter is irreproachable. In the prime of
:life, an able and successful lawyer; he
will prove himself an honor to any posi
lion or party. We hope that due eon;
-sideration will be. given by our friends in
She claims of the Northern section.

In addition to the above, we learn from
the Armstrong Free Press that our friends
in that region will contest the seat of Mr.
Chambers, the Copperhead candidate re
turned as elected from the district of
Armstrong andl Westmoreland, on the
around of a plurality of votes in the
county. Mr M'Kee has been made the
choice of•the people - of that county, and
as such we can; see no good reason why
he should not be:allowed to repreSent it.
It is trt Mr. Chambers has a majority
in the district by the vote of Westmore
land, but that that county shobld be
privileged to say who should and who
slMuld not be our representative, it seems
to us as no justice at all. It will he re
collected that in the session of '6l, Mr.
_Cessna, of the Bedford District, contested
the seat of Mr. Householder, on precisely
the same grounds, and it was decided in
his favor. That this will be the result in
this case, we have not the shadow of a
doubt.

The same , rule will apply to Franklin
and elect Lieut. Nill by a majority of

both branches of•`- the Legislature and
strenuously advocated by leading Demo
crats in both Houses. Let the rule'Dow

BALTIMORE CITY ELECTION
Baltimore held an election for City
Councils, resulting in the success of-all
the unconditional candidates.
We hope the above record will. con

North is true to - hertiOfp and will stand
,by the Governinent,
The Burlington Ha wkeye, of Saturday,
says : "From the returns now received we
believe that upon the home vote the cop
perheads will have eight, no more, out of
the ninety counties composing the State.
Counting the soldier's vote, they, will;
probably lose every county except Du
buque, but may "possibly carry two more.
The majority for the Union ticket will
reach 16,000 in the home vote, and 25,-
000 to 30,000 in all.

Copperhead majority in the same last

•In the midst-of a civil war of unequal.
led magnitude and severity, which has
sometimes.seemed :to provoke the aggres
sion of foreign States, peace has been
preserved with all naticns, order has been
maintained, the laws have
_prevailed
everywhere except in the theatre of our
military conflict', while that theatre has
been greatly contracted by the advancing
armies and navies of , the Union. •
Needful diversions of wealth and. of
strength from the fields of peaceful labor
to the national defence have not arrested
the plow, tbe shuttle, or the ship. The
axe has enlarged the borders of our set
tlements, and the mines are full of iron
coal, and of Ithe precious metals, and have
yielded even more abundantly than here
tofore.
_ Population has steadily increased, not
withstanding the ,waste that has been
made in- t 4 e camp, - the siege; and the
battle-field.; nd the country , rejoicing in
tt (
the conecionsness of augmented strength
and vigor, is permitted to expect a cow
tinuance of years, with a large increase of
freedom. No human council bath ',de
vised, nor hth any mortal hand worked
out, these great. things. They are the
gracious gifts of the most High God, who
while dealt with us in anger for our
sins, has, n "rtliele'g's, remembered mer
cy. It has seemed to inefit and proper
that they st i ould be solemnly, reverently,
and gratefully acknowledged by the whole
American people:
I do, thoefore, invite my fellow-citi
zens in every part of the United States,
and also thcse who are at sea andthose
1 . •
who are sojourning in foreign countrtes,
tor set apart and observe-the last Thurs
day in 'November next as a day of thanks
giving and Prayer and praise to our be
neficent FXther; who dwelleth in the
heavens; and
,I recommend that, while
offering up the ascriptions justly due to
Him for such singular• deliverances and
blessings, they do also, with humble pen:
itence for our perverseness and disobedi
ence, commend •to his tender care: all.
those whnave become widows, orphans,
mourners, o~~r sufferers in the lamentable
civil strife in which we are unavoidably
engaged, and fervently implore the inter
position of ,the Almighty hand to heal
the woundslof the nation, and to restore
it,- asymon as may be consistent with :the
Divine purposes, to the full enjoyment
of peace, harmony, tranquility and Union.
In testimony whereof I have beretinto
set my hand and caused the Seat of
United . Sttles to be affiied.
Done at lie city of Washington, this
third day of October, in the year of our

TILE QUIESTIN ANSWERED. -=Some'
body tuuti, • of course—inquires why,
when Eve was manufaetuaed from .the
spare rib, a ervant wasn't made to wait on
her ? Someody else,a woman, wegueis--
replies thu s ,Beca u se Adam never came
whining to ive with a ragged stocking to
be darned, Collar string to be sewed on, or
glove to mend "rigi.t away,quick now l"
Because. he never read the newspaper till
the sun got below the palm trees,and then
stetching himself, yawned 'out, "Ain't
supper. most ready, my dear ?" Not he.
He made the fie and hung the kettle
over it himielt, we'll venture ; and finned
the radishe l s, peeled the potatOes, and' did
everything Os%heought Ode. He milked
the cows, fled the chickens, and looked
after the pigs himself. He never brought
home half a dozen friends to dinner whe
Eve hadn't any fresh pomegranates, and
the mango 3.easoit was over. He never
stayed• out hill 11.d.clock to a ward meet
ing, hurrahing for an out-and-ont oandi-
I date,
and then scolding because poor Eve
was sitting ',up ',up and crying inside thegates.
He never played billiards, rolled ten-pins,
and drove fast horses . nor choked Eve
with cigar smoke. He never loafed
around cornet; groceries while Eve was
roatidg little pain's cradle at home. ' In
short; he didd't think she was especially
created for ! the purpose of.svaiting ma him,
and,wasn'trunder the impression that it
disgraced a man' to lighten a wife's cares
a little. That's the reason that Eve did
not need as hired girl; and with it was
the reason that her fair descendants did.
