HESOLUTIOKTS Of the Democratic State Convention, held at Ilarris burg, July 4, 186*2. Vnr.UEAS, The Amcr .zn Constitution was or flaincd and established by . ur fathers, in order to form a more -perfect Union, establish just tee, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general icclfarc, and secure the blessings oj liberty to posterity ; therefore, Ist. RESOLVED, That the only object of the Dem ocratic purty is the restoration of the Union as it teas, the preservation of the Constitution as it is. 2d. RESOLVED, That to the end that the Union be restored, and the Constitution and Lairs enforced throughout its xchole extent , we pledge our hearty and unqualified support to the Federal' Government in the energetic prosecution of the existing war. 3d. RESOLVED, That the true and only object of the tear is to restore the Union and enforce the laics. Such a purpose alone is worthy tha awful sacrifice which it costs us of life and of treasure; with such a vurpose alone can we hopefor success And those who from sectional feeling or party or private mo tires would gire any other direction to the efforts of our armies are unjust and unwonhy to be entrusted icith power, and would cause all our exertions, ex traordinary and unparalleled as they are, to prove futiU in the end. 4th. RESOLVED, That we justly view with alarm the reckiiss cvtiaragaiice which pervades soire of the departments of the Federal Government, and that a return to rigid economy and accountability is indis pensable to arrest the systematic plunder of the pub lic treasury by favored partisans, and that in view of the recent startling developments of frauds and corruptions at the Federal metropolis and through <nil the country that uc hold an entire change of ad ministration to be impcralirely demanded. oth. RESOLVED, That the party fanaticism or crime, whichever it may be called, that seeks to turn the slaves of Southern States loose to overrun the Xorth and enter into competition with the white la boring masses, thus degrading and insulting their manhood, by placing them on an equality with ne groes in their occupation, is insulting to our race, and merits our most emphatic and unqualified con demnation. 6th. RESOLVED, That ire denounce Northern. Ab olitionism and Southern Secession as the co-operat ing sources of our present calamities—alike treason able to the Constitution and inimicable to the Union. The only way to a restored Union and a respected Constitution with returning peace and prosperity is through the orerthrow of both, Ith. RESOLVED, That the Democracy of Pennsyl rania is equally opposed to all sectional legislation and. geographical parties, which base their hope for continued partisan success on the agrarianism of emancipation and hypercritical philanthropy—abo .ition : because neither is known to the Constitution, and both are intended to aid disunion and subvert the Constitution, and to prercnt the restoration, unity, peace and concord among stales and people. Bth. RESOLVED, Th it the Constitution and the taws are sufficient for any emergency, and that the suppression of the freedom of speech and of the press, and the unlawful arrest of citizens, and the suspen sion of the writ of habeas corpus in violation of the Constitution in States where the ciril authorities are unimpeded, is must dangerous to ciril liberty, and should be resisted at the ballot-box by every freeman in the land. 9lh. RESOLVED, That this is a Government of ichite men, and was established exclusively for the white race; that the negro race are not entitled to and ought not to be admitted to political or social equality with the white race, but that it is our duty to treat them with kindness and consideration, as an inferior and dependent race; that the right of the several States to determine the position and duties of the race is a sovereign right, and the pledges of the Constitution requires us, as loyal citizens, not to in terfere therewith. 10/A. RESOLVED, That Congress has no power to deprive any person of his property fur any criminal offence, unless that person has been first duly convic ted of the affence by the. verdict of a jury ; and that all acts of Congress like those lately passed by the House of Representatives, which assume to forfeit or confiscate the estates of men for offences of which they hare not been convicted upon due trial by jury, are unconstitutional, and lead to oppression and ty ranny. It is no justification for such arts that the crimes committed in the prosecution of the rebellion are of unexampled atrocity; nor is there any such justification as State necessity known to our Govern ment or laws. IDh. RESOLVED, That the Constitution and Un ion and the Laws must be preserved and maintained in all their proper and rightful supremacy, and that the rebellion note in arms against them must be sup pressed and put down, and that it is our duty to use all constitutional measures necessary and proper to that end. 1 2th. RESOLVED, Thai the soldiers composing our armies merit the warmest thanks of the nation.— Their country called, and nobly did they respond Living, they shall know a nation's gratitude; wound ed, a nation's care, and dying, they shall live in our j memories, and monuments shall be raised to leach posterity to honor the patriots and heroes who offered their lives at their country's aUar. Their widows and orphans shall be adopted by the nation, to be watched over, and cared for as the objects truly worthy a nation's guardianship. R E S O I, U T LO X S Adopted at the late Democratic County Convention, held at Tunkhannock. I*l. RESOLVED, Thatwe unanimously endorse the Resolutions of the Democratic State Convention held at Harr isburg on the Ath of July last. 2 d RESOLVED, Hint the "unnecessary/ and injur ious civil war," that is now desolating the country and threatening the permanency of our government ceased to be a political question from the time that Congress refused to adopt any measures of honorable compro mise of the difficulties that had grown out of North ern and Southern sectionalism, and the consequent commencement of hostilities in the bombardment of Fort Sumter —that from that time there has been but one proper mode of dealing icith the question, name- Ly, by keeping it distinct and separate from politics, to unite the whole North in the effort to bring the re bellion to an end by force ; and this end, all conserva tive men are called, upon to unite with us in a deter mined effort to create a United North, by putting down arid driring'lo the wallthat m isguided and mis chievous faction. whose sole aim is to impair northern unity of purpose, and paralyze northern effort, by forever intrudixg the most unfortunate, fatal, and disasterous of all political issues, (the issue of Negro emancipation l upon the peoples counsels; by persist ently striving to coerce the President into the adop tion of a policy that must prove fatal to the Union by seeking to impair public confidence in the integrity of the Adm inist ration ; and by creating in the ranks of our armies suspicion and distrust of the fidelity and loyalty of their leaders. 3d>. RESOLVED, That the " suspension of political parties until the close of the war," is only advocated by the party in power, and because it. is in power— mat the utter hollowness and hypocrisy of the advo cates of this policy is shown by the fact that they are scrupulously careful to keep up their own political organization, and to keep all their political machinery in full operation, as well as by the fact that in the multitude of civil apjwintmente made and being made under Republican authority, none but Repub licans "of the straighlesl sect," or renegade Demo oerals, are recognized. 4th. RESOLVED, That in all free governments there have always been, and must of necessity be at least two political parties —that the integrity, permanency, and fidelity of sneh governments to constitutional au thority, imperatively demand an opposition party— that without such party, there would be no accounta bility, and without accountability no government cm bo trusted. "No Party," therefore, simply means "let there be no opposition to the plundering of the government by government officials and favored par tisans " It means, " let the party in power remain in power, without question as to the mode in which power may be exercised." It means "no criticism of the conduct of government officials, whatever disaster or rnin may follow." It means "no discussion of mensures of governmental policy." It means " silence, acquiescence, or imprisonment." sth. RESOLVED, That in sustaining the President under the tremendous pressure to which he has been subjected by the Radical wing, of his own party, the Democratic party has afforded ample and conclusive evidence of its desire to give all its strength to the suppressson of the rebellion and the restoration of the Union ; and that the responsibility for that absence of unity of purpose in the North which is essential to success, rests solely with that party whose whole aim Ha# been to convert the war into a miserable crusade, the domestic institutions of the Southern States. * . cdoing so, to overthrow the Constitution, and "fith' Therefore, .# That the arrest and imprisonment : 'r„s tK mOCri *" V or der of rtn administration that i'j rise of despotic power * mon t ß . ,rous er " the North is called uuon m*L r)eUKK ' rat,c P art y of constitutional means 'at its a J' and part of the burincssof DemocratsTfc lhat U , ®."° ments and that this is not the truem?7 !i<ura £ e enllst " rest, is abundantly shown by the fa™ ihlt VhL beh ' Qr " hers of the Republican iiarty who b™ mem " persistently la Led to Curage * nJ the war has not been inouspurpose, (thatof negro have been allowed ti> continue their labors without even a word or enture from the government.

FOR SURVEYOR-GENERAL, JAMES P. BARR, of Allegheny Co. M FOR PRESIDENT JUDGE, HON. WM. ELWELL, of Bradford County. FOR REPRESENTATIVES, GEORGE D.JACKSON, of Sullivan County. JOIIN C.

MULLISON, of Tunkhannock Tp. FOR CORONER, J. M. CAREY, of Northraoreland. FOR COUNTY AUDITOR, JOHN G. SPAULDING, of Forkston The Issue Before the People. The Republican party have heretofore con cealed their real designs and principles, by denying that they entertained any sympa thy for the Abolitionists, and by these pro fessions have imposed upon, and duped the honest mas:es into their support. Flushed with success at the two last elections, they now make bold to declare their real object, to wit: the abolition of slavery ; without this, they say " the Union can never be re stored. As the representatives of this prin ciple, that party have placed in nomination for the three most important offices, the three firmest advocates of this infamous doc trine. Landon, their candidate for congress . ° ) has preached the dectrine of " no Union with slave holders for years." " If," says he, " the constitution recognizes slavery, tear it into shreds, trample it under foot, and trust to God for a belter one." lie, now, openly and exultingly, boasts that lie is an abolitionist, a radical—a follower of Fremont and ITunter. Jacob Kenedy, another abolition preacher of the same stamp, a man who has howled? bellowed and sniveled from the puipit, of ne gro equality for years, is the candidate of this party for the State Legislature. Win. J Turrell, their candidate for senator, is also an avowed abolitionist. In the face of these facts, it will be difficult to longer hoodwink 'he people, by denying that the YVilinot Landon, Kenedy and Turrel party, is any other than an abolition party. A party as false to the constitution as a Phillips or a Garrison, whc declare it 11 a covenant with death and a league with hell." Secession and disunion, preached from the pulpit, first sundered the church of the liv ing God, and from that, has gone on in its infernal work of until it has divided the fairest, happiest, freest country on God's footstool. Black hearted, white livered sanctimonious traitors, have openly declaimed against the Constitution formed by the wisdom of our fathers, and viper like have stuck their poisonous fangs into the Un ion, cemented by their blood, until its poi soned, embittered fragments are now engaged with each other in a war of exterminatio and ruin. The issue is now fairly before the people. Thote who are in favor of the emancipation of the negro, whether the Union be saved or not will vote for these men. Those who are in favor of the Constitution as it is, the Un ion as it was, and the nigger where he ought to be, will vote against them. Senatorial Conference. The Senatorial Conferees for the Senatori al district' composed of Bradford, Susque hanna, Wyoming and Sullivan Counties, met at Tunkhannook, on Friday, Sept. 19th, and organized, by electing Thomas Johnson, of Susquehanna Co., Chairman,, ami Richard Bedford of Sullivan Co., Secretary.

Piolette, the following resolution was adopted. Whereas, we have assembled for the first time since Bradford Sullivan, Montour and Wyoming Counties were made a congressional District. There fore be it Resolved , That we agree that this, and all future Democratic Conferences that may assemble for the purpose of nominating candidates for congress, shall be composed of an equal number of Representatives, and that each be entitled to two votes. Also, Resolved , That Peter Ent, J. C. Ammer man and Ahira Gay, be a committee to pre pare a statement upon the subject of the ex isting congressional apportionment, and re port at the next meeting of this conference. Also, Resolved , That this conference will ad journ to meet at the Exchange Hotel, in Bloomsburg, on Tuesday the 30th day of Sept. PETER EXT, Chairman Attest, V. E. PIOLETTE, J. C. AMMEKMAN, ) £S-E.B. Chase, Ira Davenport, and George B. Kulp, of Luzerne Co., who were arrested a few days since, at WilkesUarre, upon the information of some infamous sneak ing scoundrel, who dare not disclose his name, were, at last accounts, in th 3 custody of the sheriff of that County. The charge against them, is said to be the " discouraging of enlistments," though nothing of the kind has been proved. Mr. Chase lias published the statements and affidavits of Judge Con yngham, Stanley Woodward, judge Reich ard, C. C. Plotts, Capt. Mayer, Angelo Jack son, and others which entirely exculpates him from the charges made against him. It is reported that some forty others in that county, among them Charles Denison, the Democratic candidate fur Congress have been put down by some sneaking informers for arrest. They will find that thin game of intimidating democrats by imprisonment, or threats of it, will not accomplish the object intended, but will, in the end, recoil upon their own guilty heads. The Rebellion in Bradford. The people of Bradford County have so long submitted to the dictation of Dave Wil mot, that the news of a rebellion against this despot, at first, scetned to ws almost incred ible. King David with his High Priest Lan don, have, for the past two or three years, carried their infamous plots of plunder, and schemes of negro emancipation and negro equality to such lengths, as to outrage every sense of decency and propriety, and have in sultingly set at defiance the wishes of every conservative, honest man in their district. An attempt by this tyrant, to force the abolition Preacher, George Landon of " Ton nage tax swindle" notoriety, upon the peo ple of this district as a candidate for Con gress, has resulted in an open outbreak, aud "secession.'' A mass meeting upon a call, signed by m >re than live hun dred of the outraged tax payersofthat Coun ty, assembled at Towanda, aijd formed an entire new ticket, headed by Henry W. Tra cy of Standing Stone, for Congress. Mr. Tracy is an old iine whig of the conservative school, and as a representative from Brad ford County,during the session when the re publican parly, with Landon at its head, sold itself to the schemers of those soulless corpo pations, the " Penna. Central," and " Sunbu ry ar.d Erie" Rail Roads, stood almost the solitary representative of that party in the House, and denounced their votes as mon strous, corrupt, and as outrages upon the rights of the commonwealth. Ho charged that party, (which then had a majority of nearly two thirds in both houses,) with be ing responsible for these iniquities, and warn ed them of the indignation of an outraged constituency. His appeals were in vain.— . His words of hitter, burning invective, and denunciation fell upon ears surfeited and cloy ed with the clink of the almighty dollar, and they heeded them not. Au annual iucome of nearly four hundred thousand dollars, was voted into the coffers of these giant corpora tions, and George Landon, the in in by whose vote, this outrage upon the tax payers of the commonwealth was perpetrated, pock ets the price of his infamy, and now asks the people of this district to send him to Con gress 1 When that party overstepping all bounds of decency and respects for the rights of the people districted the state in such a manner as to disfranchise thousands of tax payers.— Mr. Tracy again opposed the wrongs they were about to inflict upon the people. We have given this brief account of the re bellion in Bradford, and hurried notice of the leaders on either side ; that in the event that no other candidates shall be placed in nomi nation, our readers may choose between them. There is at present but little hope that a democrat can be elected ; indeed so little, that no one wishes the nomination. A Congressman will be elected. It may then devolve upon the voters of this district to choose between Landon and Tracy. For our selves, we have no hesitation in saying, that of the two, we should prefer an honest man, to a rogue. While Mr. Tracy's votes upon the question of abolition, have not met the approval of democrats, he is, compared to Wiknot and his pet, a conservatice man r and if his votes are not cast with those of Edgar Cowan, they will not, we confidentially be hove, be found with those of Dave Wilmot, Thad. Stephens, and Charles Sumner. He is an upright,. conscientious, fearless man, and as the only candidate against Landon, his un ' scrupulous, fanatical, and intiiguing oppo nent, would receive the votes of all conserva tive honest men. The War News. The events of the past week have been of the mcst exciting and stirring character.— Almost a continuous battle has been going on since the invasion of Maryland, by the Rebel Generals, Lee, and Jackson, until Friday last; the result of which has been such, that now, we are warranted in announcing that they have been driven from that &tate, by the brave McClellan and his gallant army.— Battles in magnitude, but little inferior to that at Waterloo, have been fought at Mid dletown, Burkittsville, Sharpsburg, and An tietam ; in all of which, the most determined valor was exhibited on both sides ; the ene my in each, however, were driven from tho field with immense loss. The loss on our side, in these several engagements, has been variously estimated, at from ten to twenty thousand, in killed and wounded. In the ab sence of any official report, and with the con" fused, and often controdictory accounts, it is impossible to give anything like a connected narative, of these important battles. Gen. Mansfield is among the killed. Generals Sedg wick, Ilartsuf, Richardson, and numerous others were wounded. Maryland Heights, which commanded Har pers Ferry, fel 1 into the hands of the Rebels, who beseiged it so closely as to oblige Col. Miles the commandant at that point, to sur render it, with 8000 'roops, and a large num ber of cannon, small arms, amunition, and ar my stores, in large quantities, fell into the hands of the captors. The Heights are now occupied by the Union forces. The new 6 by the last nights mail, indicat ed, that Louisville, Ivy., was beseiged by the Rebel Gen. Bragg, and was in great danger of being taken. Bragg had summoned Gen. Nelson, who was in command of the city, to surrender, which Gen. Nelson refused to do, and ordered the women and children to be ready to leave the city at an hour's notice, and is preparing to defend the city at all haz ards. Thousands of the citizens arc crossing the Ohio into Indiana. No officii list of the casualties in the late battles have been published. The Re serve corps were actively engaged, and suffer ed severely. All accounts give them great praise fur their unflinching bravery. The 132 d, led by Col. It. A. Oak ford, of Scranton, though a new regiment, was in the hottest of the fight, and suffered severe losses ; Col. Oakford being among the killed. Lincoln's Proclamation. President Lincoln has just issued a procla mation, declaring that all slaves in the seced ed Slates, on the Ist January next, "shall be then, thenceforth and forever free." This course seems to have been forced upon the President, by the insane ravings of Greeley and the fanatical crew of (negro-worshippers, I who followed his lead. Before the rebellion broke out, we were told by these men, that '• the south dare not leave the protection of the General Government." That the begin ning of hostilities, would be the signal for the instant uprising of the entire negro popula tion there, and that their masters would be murdered, houses burned, and that carnage, rapine, devastation, and blood, would mark their paths. The South seceded. Greeley and his tribe looked fur the fulfillment of their predictions ; the Tribune , gave vague rumors of the up isingof the slaves, until ashamed of its lies, its sage editor desisted; and finally came to the conclusion that, in order to pro duce this desirable consummation, all that was wanting, was a proclamation. Fremont issued his proclaxation, emancipating all slaves in Missouri. Hunter, to do the thing on a grander scale, proclaimed the freedom o" the slaves in several states. Still the obsti nate niggers, waited for higher authority.— " Honest old Abe," Greely thought, could do the work with a " dash of his pen." Abe, in his honesty, doubted, hesitated, and for a while resisted. He was beseiged night a-d day, importuned, threatened, and bullied, un til the honest old soul finally gave way, and now the Presidential edict goes forth. Gree ly and his horde will look long and anxious ly for their b.ack brethren to come to their loving embrace. Abe will try to buy them, but with an exhausted treasury, and masters unwilling to sell, will get, " nary nigger."— Finally he will conclude that there was some truth in what he said of a similar proclama tion b}* Gen. Hunter, to wit : " that all such, are simply null and void," and that to free a nigger, the first and most important step, is to catch him, — Letter From the Army. The following communication from a par ticipant in the great struggle now going on, reflects the sentiments of the entire army, so far as we have yet learned, in regard to Gen eral McClellan, who our abolitionized Repub licans insist, lacks capacity as a General, and as some make bold to affirm, is a traitor to his country. The writer was, before entering the army, a Republican of the " straightest sect"—a reader and admirer of the Tribune. While that sheet, and others of its school, are howling over the woes of the poor nig ger, and insist that our armies shall strain every thew, and pour out every drop of blood for his liberation, oar soldiers, almost to a man, declare that they are not fighting, nor will not fight for any auoh ohjeot. McClellan, who, in common with his en tire army, has been struggling for months, with no other object in view than to main tain the Constitution as it is, and restore the Union as it was, has becomo the target for the poisoned arrows of calumny and detrac tion in the hands of this traitor horde, be cause he will not lend himself and his army to the wild schemes of negro emancipation advocated by them. It is time that these vile traitors, wherever they may he found, should be, to use their own language, " spot ted." Let every true man hold them up as objects for the finger of scorn and derision to point at, through all time, and hand their names down to posterity, inscribed on the pages of infamy : CAMP, NEAR GEORGE TOWN, Va., } Suuday, Aug. 31, 1862. } MY DEAR WIFE I once more attempt to write. You may think that I have forgot ten you, but I assure you I have not. It is two weeks ago yesterday sinee we left Har rison's Landing. Since then we have not camped more than two days in one place— We had a long march, of about 75 miles from the Landing, to Newport News, which we accomplished in 10 days ; some days, march ing three or four miles, and others 25. The weather was quite favorable, and we enjoyed ourselves first rate. There are many thing 9 through that part of Virginia, which reminds me of" Old England." It is one of the old est settled places in America, and retains much of the English style. We got on boati at Newport News, last Sunday, and started for Alexandria. On Monday morning, after an unpleasant ride in a crowded boat, with some delays, we got on shore at Alexandria. Last Thursdaj', about neon, marched out to camp California, stay ed one night; Friday we came here; per haps you don't know where Georgetown is. It is about 2 miles above Washington City. So you see we are on the bank of the Poto mac, on the Virginia side, farther from Rich mond than we have ever been since we went to camp California, last fall. There was a big battle yesterday on or near the old bat tle field of Bull Run. All the troops from here were ordered out there last night.— I have got the jaundice and was not able to go along. I have not heard any firing to-day, so I think the battle must be over. I receiv ed a letter from you yesterday morning. It is the first I have had since I left Harrison's Landing. I was glad to hear from you, and to know that you were all well. You do not say anything about the money I sent you. You may nave sent me a letter which T never received. I sent you ten dollars.-- If you got it tell me next lime you write. - We don't know where we shall go, from here, hut we have got a good deal of help now. There are a great many Pennsylvania boys around here. 1 saw John "Wall last night. I am glad you think so much of McClellan. lie is a good General. We, the soldiers of his army, have the greatest of confidence in him, and if the Abolitionists and Congress men, had let him have his own way, the war would have been over before now. We will never fight under any o her General, as lone as he is alive. So long as he is left to com mand us we will fight, as long as there is one man left to stand by another. I hope that every Abolitionist in the North will be drafted, and have to come down here to fight for their black brethren, until they are satis fied that niggers are a curse to the nation. Every northern man ought to be thankful that there are none of them in the North. Write as often as y.u can, an 1 I will do the same. I rema nas ever your affection ate husband.

Mr. Childs, in a war speech made in Springfield, Ohio, on the ev ening of the 19th ult., said: "The tnan who desires to have the Union as ! t was, ought to he hanged up by the heels until he be dead, dead, dead ! and the wolves and ravens ought to eat the flesh from his carcass." Rev. Mr. Childs is a pious black republican.— E.c. Wo have, in this rogion, quite a largo number of those pious " black Republicans," who would have Union men served in the manner, Mr. Childs suggests. All such as have put themselves up before the people for office, will find themselves, after the election, politically " hung up to dry." Wo have no idea that we have any animals in these parts, that are beastl}' enough to touch their cor rupt carcasses. ITS" The Movtrose Democrat , speaking of the Rebellion in Bradford County, says, that tl Wilmot'fl tyranny and fanaticism has ruptured the Republican party in old Brad ford. The unfair nomination of the fanatic Landon, for Congress, has caused a destruc tive bolt, which has resulted in the nomina tion of Hon. 11. W.Tracy, one of the ablest and most popular men in the party. The utter defeat of the Wilmot faction is claimed by the " insurgents." A Pennsylvania editor (of the Mil ford Herald,) says he has been represented !in different quarters as an Abolititionist, a I Republican, a Secessionist—everything, in | fact except a " bob sled." He returns thanks to his opponents for not calling him a'' bob sled." The editor of the Herald has our warm- I est sympathies. " \ fellow fvefcng makes us wondrous kind."— Ed. Auditor's Notice.
