Gen. McClelIan's Reception at Freder-
lex.
Frederick. Sent. IL

Frederick, Sept. l3.
About 0 O'Clock this morning, Gen. Nc
CleIIan, at the head Of his staff, rode into
town, and the reception he met with threw
all others into tho shade. He had not
gone single square until boquets were
fairly showered upon him, and when be
reached the corner of Patrick and Market
streets, the enthusiasm knew no bounds
hepeople formed themselves in the streets
and would no. let him pass without having
a good shake Of the hand or hearing a
pleasant word from him. Gray haired
men Of over seventy put on double share
Of elasticity, and were the most eager in
their determination to see him, while the
young men, who were prevented by the
crowd from taking the General by the
hand, made the air ring with their cheers.
And the ladies were not behind the men
in their marks Of appreciation. They fair
ly ''swarmed' around him, lavishing their
praises on him, kissing his hand, bidding
him God>sPee1, and presenting him with
boquets, and tying little flags on his horse.
The General would every now and then
respond, thanking them for their reception
feeling glad that they felt more comforta~
BILE, and expressing the hope, before long,
Of there not being one rebel in arms north
of The Potomac.

MUsTERING II THE CoSscRIrTs quite
a lively business has been done lately By
drafted men, il procuring substitutes.
The supply is equal TO the demand,
bu! prices rule high, and the market is
firm, with an upward tendency. Quota
tons Saturday were $200a300-a few
transactions al lower figures, but the most
were at the last named price. The mar
ket opened this (Monday) morning at an
advance, and the transactions to day were
extensive, at higher rates-the ruling
price being $3.50. This is a new branch
of business in Hartford, and some folks
do not yet seem TO have got the hang os
it," the consequence being an excited state
Of the nervous system. There are several
places open for the transaction OF this PEI
culiar bGsiness-some being agercles, some
commission houses, others doing business
on their own hook. One party opened
rooms with load Of raw material from
New Hartford, which, in consideration Of
its unexceptionaba character, commanded
premium. Some parties demand 500,
$500, and even higher figures, but get 10
takers. = Hartford Times.

The Anglo African is out in a terrible leader
against General Mcclellan and the President, be-
cause they don't elevate the blacks to the level
of the white race by giving them arms to fight in
this war. In common with the Tribune, this
hybrid mulatto ridicules the President and our
greatest General, and predicts that this miser-
able race pride will have a fall" The Anglo
African holds that twenty millions of Northern
white men can not conquer ten millions of South
ern white men without the aid of the puissant
blacks, who have had every opportunity given
them to rise at the South, but either do not dare
or do not desire to engage in the conflict.
There will soon he an end" quoth the Anglo.
African, "of Mr.. L%Incoln's jokes. g~yrationS and
humiliating appeals to border State traitors"
Here is a bird OF the sam feather with Greeley.
The patriotic President desires to retain the Dor
der States as the sheet anchor of the Union; the
AngLo-A African and the Tribune long to see the
border States forced out of the Union, in order
to secure the eternal separation of the South from
the North. This is what the radical knaves and
fanatics have been moving heaven earth and pan
demonium for during the last thirty years. and
now their fever is at its crisis. They will soon
get a cooling or die by hemp.-Nep York Her.

What is now wanted of prominent. popular, in
huential and wealthy citizens OF Chicago is not
altogether that they shall contribute their one and
two and five and ten hundred dollars to stimulate
volunteering, but that they shall themselves vol
unteer. THIS example would awaken the popu-
lar patriotism, revive the popular enthusiasm and
stimulate volunteering as money nor anything
else can. The popular masses will then under
stand that there is need of earnestness and that
the men to whom they look for example are in
earnest. They will then understand that public
danger really exists, and that it must bo met.
Then will the farmers come out of their harvest
fields, and mechanics ont of their workshops, and
the laborers from their toll and volunteer without
much re erence to bounty. And let this example
become general all over the country, and then
will the rebellion tremOle as it can not be made to
tremble- by threats or proclamation OF negro
emancipation or any other Chinese gong method
of warfare. Then will European powers see
and know and feel that the rebellion can and will
be put down, and that they must not interfere
between an offended Government and a wicked
rebellion.
Prominent. and popular, and influential and
wealthy citizens of Chicago, the common people
await your example. They do not want to see
the draft come, because they know that you can
relieve yourselves by substitutes at five or ten
hundred dollars each. and that they can not.
They are ready for all work of patriotism if you
will lead the way.-ChicagO Times.

Under the above caption, the Journal Of Mon
day comments upon a communication from
one "Dr. j.. N. Ray" which appears in that
print. respecting a private conversation said to
be had with one of the proprietors of this paper,
after the attack upon Sumter, and a remark he
siys he heard some one make 70 the writer Of this
after the Bull Run battle, desiring that BEAURE-
GARD should march his army upon Washington
and capture the Government. This fellow RAY
is insane. known 10 be so by all who have any
Intercourse with him.. His statements upon
any subject are no more entitled to belief
than any inmate of the Asylum for the In
sane. No court, or sensible man, would
now believe him on oath. he owes this
Office several hundred dollars for work done
for him and we suppose that fact is the coca
sion of his insane malice towards US. Before
his alteration OF mind we understand he was a
vicious and troublesome man and we believe was
guilty Of malpractice which compelled him to
leave his former residencein a neighboring coun
ty. We pity the man whom Providence, as a
chastisement, has thus afflicted, or even if il
should be the result OF his own transgressions.
Insanity may be an apology for Rays Sian
der. bat where the excuse for the infamous in
ferences Of the editor of the Journal based upon
such testimony The latter can not be igno
rant Of the general character and mental condi-
ton Of the f0 Mer. He knows that Ray was dis
charged from the arsenal as a Waterman for in
competency ana imbecility. Upon such evidence
the editor Of the Journal charges the controllers
OF the Sentinel with malignant hatred of his
Governments in his heart.~ Nothing but malice.
a heart deprayed both by nature aud cultivation,
could prompt such a SANDER against a neighbor.
There Is no excuse or p~alliation for it. The
Journal editor knows that there is not a shadow
Of foundation for a charge d0disIoyaIty against
Us, unless it was for entertaining views as to the
causes aud necessity Of the war similar TO his
own, expressed before the breaking out Of hostil.
ities, and which he has since reiterated. A ma
hgnant, mean wickedDess could alone have
suggested the publication OF Rays communication
and bis thereon. There could be no
other object but to excite prejudice and stir
up strife in the community. We have
no heart to comment upon such evidences of
malices that have no Justification whatever.
In conclusion, we will add that the statements
Of Rsr are Misrepresentation and falsehoods
from beginning 70 end. No such remark as he
relates was ever made 70 Us in the Sepfinri Office

What He Did Say.

The Louisville Democrat censures Mr.. VooR-
HE'S for an expression put into his mouth by Re
publican papers. 1t will appear from a correct
report of what he did say, that his position will
meet with the approval of every honest man in
the country. We copy the following from the
Terre Haute Journal, which satisfactorily ex-
plains the position of Mr.. VOORHEES,:
The editor of the indianapolis Journal says
that Dan. Voorhees, stated in a speech at the
Court house. in this city, on Saturday that he in
tended TO "stand between the farmers and the
tax gathers" Voorhees, said no such thing. He
said that in Congress he had stood between the
farmer and the tax g%atherer, in exposing the
frauds and corruptions of Government officials
He did not intimate that the people should not
cheerful!y pay the taxes levied upon them, but,
on the contrary, he told them it was the duty of
all TO stand by the Government. Some unscru-
pulous Republican has lied to the Journal about
the speech oil Voorhees,.

secret Political societies.

The letter of the Hon. James Hughes address
ed to Governor Morton, and by the latter read to
the Convention OF the 18th of June at Indiana
polls, on the subject of secret political societies,
is becoming significant. The Hon. Jas. Hughes,
protesting Democracy, is moved by our noble
Governor to give the alarm that the Democrats
are organizing secret societies for the purpose of
resisting the payment of taxes. and thus with
draw the attention from the fact that the Adolf
tionized Republican or Union party are to carry
the badge OF a secret society, quietly hidden I'M
der the lappets of their coats.
We append the following from the Lafayette
Argus:
"U. C.-The Courier of Tuesday evening an
DoCnces to the members of the midnight watchers
Union Club" that their new room will be ready
for their next meeting. This Union Club" is
neither more nor less than the old Know Nothing
order revived. and it extends to every county and
township in the State. When a political party is
obliged to resort to secresy, in order to accom-
plish its ends, it should be looked upon as an en-
envy to free institutions and the rights of MAORI
ties.
We deem it only necessary to warn the public
against such organizations; no true Democrat
with a knowledge OF the design ever entered the
den of Know Nothingism or the nest OF a
Wide Awake. the rueful results of which are now
overshadowing the country with ruin and distress.
The Democratic party 20 forth with their lights
burning before the world, no secrets for the I'M
tate only, its principles are emblazoned upon its
banners, it has no devices to allure the unwary,
it asks only a fair open, manly contest of the prin.
ciples upon which the country should be ruled,
and spreads upon its canvas, in language not to
be misunderstood. what those principles are. In
a time like the present it should be the duty, as it
will be, of every true lover of his country TO re-
fleet calmly upon the measures which are to ex-
tricate US from the woes which surround us. As
sociations as unnatural as those found in the prai
re dogs houses are being formedby these Union
Clubs for the purpose of again overwhelming the
only party that in peace gave prosperity, and in
war gave peace.-COringtOn Friend.

rhe Mass Convention of the soth.

The Journal of Tuesday copies our notice of
the arrangements made with the railroads center
ing in this city for half fare trains to the State
Mass Convention to be held here on the Both,
which appeared in the Sentinel the day before,
and inquiries what State Central Committee
have made the arrangements" referred to. If
the Journal had examined the call it would have
been enlightened. 1t is the Democratic State
Central Committee that made the arrange
ments," and it is to be a mass meeting OF the
Democracy of Indiana and all conservative citi-
zens who desire to maintain the Constitution az it
is and the Union as it was, called to consider the
crisis of the country ana their duty in reference
to the present emergency in our public affairs.
1t the Journal editor comes within that class
he is invited to unite with the Democracy upon
that occasion in a patriotic effort to preserve the
Union OF the fathers and to secure to ourselves
and those who come after the blessings of con-
stitutional liberty. There was no design or "poli-
cy" in emitting the word Democratic in refer
ing to the State Central Committee. If it had
been a notice sent for publication in a Republican
paper there might have been some policy" in
the omission, but appearing in a Democratic pa
per no one could question or doubt what com
nittee was intended. We are obliged to the edi-
tor for publishing the article noticing the ar
engagements for and objects of the Convention.
and we have no doubt its readers will be under
equal obligation for once furnishing them with
"lofty anti party patriotism" and Union senti-
ments expressed with sincerity and truth"
The Convention will be largely attended from
all parts of the State by sincere and truthful
Union men, and its resolutions and speeches will
breathe nothing but patriotic devotion to the
Constitution and the Union. and express
naught but condemnation of the men, policy and
measures designed for their overthrow, and the
best means for the preservation of the Govern
ment.
