ing the country frcm impending anarchy am
ultimate ruin, is by uniting with tha Demo
cratic party—the only party now left that ii
truly national in its character and conserve
tire in its aims ; the only party in the coan
try that has ever been able to fo
any length of lime, to the satisfaction of tbi
people at large.
This party has now presented for tin
Presidency, and the Viae Presidency, twc
men of the most unspotted lives and unblem
iabed reputations—.everyway unassailed aod
unassailable, except by the eorrupt and mer
cenary creatures in the pay and promise of
the existing Administration.
In regard to GEORGE B. MCCLELLAM, we
ahall not pause here to write hia history.—
That <s already engraved on the hearts and
consciences of a grateful people. We feel
confident, slao, that his admitted ability, in
tegrity, and independence,the manly firmneaa
he has always exhibited, and especially, and
above all, his heroic devotion in the darkest
hours to the true principles of the Constitu
lion, will draw around him now, the nations
Confidence, This confidence, reposed in such
hands, wonld never be betrayed.
He stands at the present, as he has always
stood, wholly aloof from intrigue. He is al
lied with no ties of contract with mercenary
adventurers in political life. lie seeks not
the office for which he has been named ; but
has all along held " the noiseless tenor of his
way," free from the embarrassments which
trammel the active and ambitious candidate
for office. Even defeat should fall to his lot
in this contest, (whiah we cannot believe,)
he will be consoled with the consciousness of
haTing implored no tnau's aid, pledged in ad
vance, no places that would be in his gift, if
elected ; and that those who had espoused
his cause even from the beginning,acted from
■ympathy with a brave, persecuted, and pa
triotic man ; acted from priciple and love of
country,seeking no reward for future favors,
Mo one whe has been named for the Presi
dency desires it less; no one, certain, has
courted it less, and this is an additional rea
•or, why he should be, and will be, preferred
by the thoughtful and the upright.
The varnished reports of rivals in command;
the suppressed and distorted facts of a parti
san committee of Congress ; the constant
jealousy and malignant opposition at every
step of those who feared his success and
dreaded his popularity, have ail failed in
blasting his military reputation. Intelligent
men ever) where, in every land, have riad
the libels upon this accomplished 6oldier, on
ly with a sickening 6cuse of their injustice
and venality. In this country, they have
penetrated the hearts of our soldiery and the
people at large, only to kindle theie a broad
cr and brighter flame of devotion to their in
tended victim ; and the world, ere long, will
witness with approbation the reward which
they will mete out to a national benefac
tor.
The eminent statesman who has been nom
inated for the second place on our ticket, has
long been conspicuous in the legislative
branch of the Government. Remembering
hia years, few men in our country have ever
reached a higher position in the respect confi
dence of the public. No man in the present
Congress Dos a< "' to s greater extent those
gifts of oratorjf and accomplishments of
statesmanship, that amply justify iue wide
popularity and esteem with which he is ever
ywhere regarded in the sectioc of the Union
that gave him birth. lie, like our Presiden
tial candidate, emphatically belongs to the
TOI'NG MEN of this count iv. These nomina
tions are essentially THEIR nominations.
The fact of youth should give a deeper in
terest, if possible, to this class, in the strug

is before them, with all its pursuits, hopes
and enjoyments, Let them weigh well, re
cent and passing events, and mark the rap
id calling of despotic power ; let them reso
lutely see to it, that the wise and beneficent
ins*. itutions of the pure men of former times
become their own sure heritage, and that of
ibeir children.
Finally, fellow citizens of Pennsylvania, of
all classes and conditions, it is in your pow
er to dissolve the clouds which now threaten
to overwhelm all our brightest hopes, and
bring upon our country a long night of storm
and darkness. Against tho usurpations and
evils, which we are conscious of having but
too imperfectly depicted, let us array our
selves in combined strength. The election
of our Congiessional, legislative and County
tickets in October is of the highest import
ance. if we would succeed in the Presiden
tial contest in November. Success here will
will inspirit the Conservative men of other
States. Defeat will alarm and dishearten

Let our watchwords fie WAR (if we must
have it) for the true, legitimate objects of
Mich a war, and NONE OTHER ; for PEACE the
first moment that peace can restore to us the
common heritage of a united country ; for
the imperishable glory of the old Union and

better done, than in giving our best tfforts in '

The lA#t of Conscripts.
We publish to-day, acimplete and care
fully corrected list, of persons drafted for
this county on the 29;h and 30th Sept. This
will be a sad list to many a household;
and will be read with awful anxiety and tear
ful eyes by hundreds of helpless dependent
fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, wives and
children. In it, they will see poverty,
destitution want and suffering. In it they
will feel the pinching winds and chilly
storms of winter searching their very bones,"
to the marrow, In it, they will see fields of
strife and blood—the bleeding, quivering
wounded, the ghastly dead ; and all tliat long
train of sorrows, sufferings and deprivation s
endured by widowed mothers and orphaned
children. Would to God. that they could
bring to their imaginations a picture with
lighter shades of coloring.— But they cannot.
The past four y ears has taught them by iis
6ad experiences, that the reality, the truth,
can hardly be conceived.
God save the people from another tuch a
fou, years.
Another Draft.
Those who have been Wittering themselves
that the present is the last draft are greatly
deceived. Arrangements are already being
made to draft for al! deficiencies under old
calls. The Washington Avthoritiea by a late
order rejuae to grant commissions to reen
listing officers for a less ter m than hree years.
Men, for three year's service are as much
needed as officers. We are to have tnen,
three, if Lincoln is re-elec'ed, TEARES
MORE or FRUITLESS, DEVASTATING, KCINOCS,
BLOODY WAR.
AND STILL ANOTHER.
As soon as the blanks can be printed and
rolls perfected a sweeping draft will be made
under the State law passed the late extra
session of the Leg islature.
All able bodied men may as we II conclude,!
fir.t as last, to abandon their coutry or all
other pursuits but tin sr of war and blood.
Sinew wri'ing the above we find the follow,
j ing,in the Dispatch from Washington, to the
associated press ; published In the last night's
papers:
The Provost Marshal General has informed
| the ma3'or of Washington that owin; to the '
number of exemptions from the draft just
completed here, another will be enforced and
kept up till the quoia is filled with the requir- 1
ed number of men, This will probably be !
the case where the one hundred additional
percent, does not fill quotas.
The Army of the Potomac has done no fight (
ing of any moment since Fri lay last, when af
ter some desperate engagements the lines,
were advanced to within eight miles of Rich. '
mond. The rebels are in front in strong force. ■
Gen. Sherman's litres of Communication
are much endangered by rebel raiders.
The rebel invasion of Missouri was not
checked by Gen. Rosencrants, f r which it is
said he will be removed from his comma nd,

THE SITUATION.
Among tho three hundred and fifty four
names of conscripts, from, this Count?, will
be found that of llaiviy Sicxlm. Tlwre
are times,when to see one's "nam# in print,"
is rather gratifying than otherwise, But.uu
der the circumstances in which we now find
our's, we would gladly forego auy pleasure it
may be supposed to afford us. The title—
j ''Conscript," attached thereto, nerer sounded
pleasant to our ears. It is peculiarly offcn
sive now. We should not,pet haps,ignore the
fact that, to see us thus situated, gives great
pleasure to very many of our political ene
mies, who have always favored conscription
laws, but who have managed, through frauds
knavery, political favoritism or good luck to
escape their rigors.
We have been, as most of our readers are
awa re, utterly, totally, absolutely opposed to
-the policy of all conscription laws. We are
as much against them, now, as ever. We
have thought, and still think, that in the
making any- enforcement of them, the ser
vant# of the people become the despotic ru
lers of the people. We have thought and
still think, that laws which place the lives
and fortunes of meu at the will of one man
—even a totally at variance
with free government and entirely consistent
with despotism. We have thought, and still
think, that in a war for legitimate and proper
objects, conscriptions would never bo necessa
ry. While these have been, and still are
our opinions—we have always observed the
laws of our country and intend to do so still-
We shall attempt no dishonorable evasion of
their severitities; We hope however, that
the day is not far distant, when such of them
as are oppressive, discriminating, unjust and
cruel--as we believe this conscription law to
he, shall be wiped from the statute Book# of
the Nation forever.
Our readers will excuse us for again ad
verting to "self, a subject upon which," it
has been said " all are fluent, but none
agreeable."
Fifteen years ago we left our Father'# roof
a poor, penniless, uneducated boy. Five of
these years were spent at school and in ef
forts to maintain us there. The remaining
ten, has been with us a constant struggle to
secure an honest livelihood—to aid and edu
cate. as far as in our power, younger orphan
br< thers and sisters—one of whom was a
cripple from birih—and to ,secure for ourself '
our wife and children a home and shelter.
This home we have now s ( cured, though not
without incurring eome debts, which we still !
owe. Tho duties of support and protection
which we owe to our wife and children forbid
that we should turn them out into the storms
for the sake of securing our exemption, by
the purchase of a substitute—which we
would have to do, at the prices now asked
for them. In short, we arc too poor to h ire
a substitute aid retain a home for our family.
We have no delicacy in making this statement
(Though often taunted with our poverty, we
never denied it, because it was true arid he
cause we never thought it a disgrace.) We
are 100 proud to run a vay. We shall
therefore, if deemed fit for military duty,
('hough we thin* we are not,) be 'unab'e to
resist the pressure j" and be obliged to
go into the service— This it our situation.
"We ask those who are indebted to us on
newspaper subscription, or otherwise, to pny
tip immediately , that we may be enabled
as far as possible to pay our own debts ; and
insure our family against the mora pressing
wants.
We hope no man will tbink that what he
may owe us. will be of no account in the
matter, because it may be a small sum. All
that is due us is in these small sums, and
taken in the aggregate, will be of very great
account to us.
Fremen.if you wculd rescue your
liberties from the insane clutch of a Despot,
OO TO THE POLLS ON TCESDAT next—be
there early—remain all day—see that no
Democrat is left at home. Do your duty ;
and you will give abolitionism such a blow

Republican Hopefuln*s.
.
For the twentieth time incc tbia ctjril war
commence], Republican politician# are flatter
ing the people with the idea, that the rebel
lion it nearly ready to coftapse. Gen. Grant
is made to say that the South have " robbed
the cradle and the grave" to fill their armies,
and that we need only 100,000 more to give
the finishing blow. And then, too, we are
told that the rebel soldiers are deserting by
scores and hundreds, and that tho army itself
is becoming demoralized.
We have heard these and sittrlar stories
quite too often to feel the slightest elation,
when now just on the eve of another election,
they are brought forward as. political capital
to sustain a sinking cause. No campaign of
tke war has been conducted so vigorously on
the part of the Confederate# as the present
Gen. Grant will be hardly wilting to admit
that the army which confronted and baffled
him in all his bloody march from the Itapi
dan to the James, was composed o f old men
and boys. Should we flatter ourselves, that
we are now in the last struggle of the war if
tho present policy i 9 continued, we are simply
preparing ourselves for another bitter disap
pointment. It is the part of wisdom look
tho difficulties of our situation full in the
face.
But conceding that the rebellion is on the
decline, and that its present army is the last
it can raise, which we do not believe, we hold
tiiat it isnone the less important that we have
a change of Administration. If the military
power of the confederacy shall be broken
down, that by no means restores the Union,
even, or brings to us peace. Mr. Lincoln as
a condition of peace, demands not only the
disbanding of the rebel armies, but also the
abandonment of slavery, Should he b re
elected, it would be the declaration of the
people of the North that we will not accept
peace on auy terns save those prescribed by
Mr. Lincoln in his " to whom it may concern"
letter. Does any one believe that tb© South
will ever sue for peace on those terni9 ? Can
Mr Lincoln, with half the people of the nor
them States against him, carry on this war a
year longer for the destruction of siavery
alone ? Suppose 6ix months hence he shonld
call for " 300,000 more" men,as we have no
doubt he must, if he would prosecute the
war" vigorously," on the present policy,
what would be the response of the people ?
In any possible event of the present cam
paign, a change of Administration is necessa
ry if we would have peace wi*h the Union
Such a change, with the adoption of a concila
tory policy, would at once revive Union feel
ing at the South, now utterly crushed by the
exasperating measures of Mr. Lincoln. As a
result we should then have a war for the Un
ion, where alone it ought tu be waged at the
ballot boxes in the Southern States.— Ex.
W jrdi of Clj.
In reviewing the utterances of oar states
men of the last generation, we are struck
with admiration at the wonderful sagacity,al
most approaching inspiration, which enabled
there to predict the events which have actual
ly transp'red in our daj\ The following from
a speech of Henry Clay is a remarkable in
stance. There are words of wisdom in the
extract which every clt>aen would do well to
ponder :
"If the abolitionists succeed in their pres
ent effort to nnite the inhabitants of the free
states against the inhabitants of the slave
states—union on the one side will beget un
ion on the other—and this process of recip
focal consolidation will be attended with all
the violent prejudices, embittered passions,
arid implacable animosities which ever degra
ded or deformed human nature. A virtual
dissolution ot the Union will have taken
place, whilst the forms of its existence re
main. The most valuable element of Union ,
Mutual kindness, feelings of sympathy, and
the fraternal bonds which formerly united
yon, will have been extingushed forever ,
One section will stand in menacing and hos
tile array against the other. The collision
oi opinion will be quickly followed by the
clash of arms."
'• I will not attempt to describe scenes
which now happily lie concealed from yonr
view. Even the abolitionists themselves
would shrink back in dismay and horror at
the contemplation of desoluted fields, c mfla
graied cities, murdered inhabitants, and the
overthrow of the fairest fabric of hnmau gov
ernment that ever rose to animate the hopes
of civdized man."
" Union on the one side will beget Unicn
on the other."
" The most valuable element of Union,
mutual kindness, feelings of symyathy, and
the fraternal bonds which formerly united
you' will have been extinguished forever.''
This is a common sense view of human na
ture, quite beyond the comprehension of the
leaders of the Republican party.

THE IDOL or THE ARMT—While in coro
maud of the army of the Potomac, McfJlellau
devoted himself to the care and discipline of
his soldiers. Ilence it was that beyond all
of our ot her generals, he held the heart of
the army. His spirit inspired every man,and
all were ready to follow wherever he might
lead.
Gen. McClcllan would never have allowed
35,000 biave boys to languish for weary
months in rebel prisons,where they perish at
the rate of 100 a day, merely because a few
slaves who had been made soldiers, and were
reclaimed ly their masters , coul l not be ex

Ayer*s Pills
ARB you sick, feeble and complaining 7 Are
you out of order with vour system deranged and
your feelings uncomfortable 1 These symptoms are
often the preluie to serious illness. Some fit of
sickness is creeping upon you, and should be avert
ed by a timely use of the right remedy. Take Ay
er s Pills, and cleanse out the disordered humors—
pnrify the blood, and let the fluids move on unob
structed m health again. Xhey stimulate the func
tions of the body into vigorous activity, purify the
system from the obstructions which make disease. —
A cold settles somewhere in the body, and deranges
its natural functions . These, if not relieved react
upon themselves and the surrounding organs,produc
ing general aggravation, suffering and derangement
While in this condition, take Ayr's Pills and see
how directly they restore the natural action of the
system, and with it the buoyant feelings of health
again. What is true and so apparient in this trivi
al and common complaint is also true and in many
of the deep seated and dangerous distempers. The
same purgative effect expels them Caused bv sim
ilar obstructions and derangements of the natural
functions of the body, they are rapidly and many of
them surely cured by the same means. N*>ne who
know the virtue of these Pills will neglect to employ
them when suffering from the disorders they cure,
such as Headach -, Foul Stomach, Dysentery, BiN
ious Complaints, Indigestion, Derangement of the
Liver, Costiveness, Constipation. Heartburn, Rheu
matism, Dropsy, Worms and Suppression, when tak
en in large doses.
They are Sugar Coated, so that the most sensitive,
can take them easily, nd they are surely the bast
purgative medicine yet discovered.
Ayer'a Ague Cure.
For the speedy and certain Curo of Ir.termitto n
Fever, or Chills and Fever, Remittent Fever, Chill
Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical Headache or Bil
ious Headache, and Bilious Fevers v indeed, for
the whole class of diseases orlginqting in biliar
derangement, eaused by the malaria of miasma
tic countries
This remedy has rarely failed to cure the severest
eases of Chills and Fever, and it has this great ad
vantage over other Ague medioines, that H subdues
the complaint without injury to the patient. Jt
contains no quinine or other delitenn* substance,
nor does it prodnee quinism or any injuries effect
ehatever. Shaking brothers of the army and •
ewst, try it and you will eudorse these e#enwnff
