| Cr'ttendon proposition is to be attributed to
the refusal OF Senators from the Cotton Sta,.s
to vote and secondly, tina, these very S.ns-
tors' VINO represented the disaffected In the
South' so Tar from being committed 10 a
compromise, : were opposed to all compromi-
ses, would not accept any, and had pre.deter-
mined the present attempt to overthrow tho
Government.
And now, We might very properly inquire
what was the object OF Mr.. Bigier, and The
thirty six members of his party to whom he
has addressed his letter, in this most abor,iv.
effort For whom was it intended as vindj.
the Crittenden amendment upon tho Democrats
OF the north No. Did he attempt to fix upon
them, in any degree, the responsibility of this.
rebellion? Not at all. But he charged il .
upon the leaders of the South-upon the mem
who now occupy the highest positions in the
rebel government. Why then should Mr.
Bigler and his disciples take the matter up in
such high dudgeona Why should he UNDER
take the task of vindicating these rebels
We leave The reader to answer.
In reply TO this iaborcd attempt to fasten
the responsibility of the present condition of
things upon the Republican party, we might
have retorted that il rested, IN great meas .
ure, upon the imbecile, vaclatine, and pur--
poseiess administration Of James Buchauap,
and those who clung to and sustained IL.
Certainly never had men greater opportuni-
ty, and never was il more ignomipiously
thrown away. Had he, and those who sus-
tanned him in the Senate, at the commence
ment OF that Session of Congress, asserted the
doctrines of Gen. Jackson's proclamation to
South Carolina, and declared their intention
to enforce them, who can doubt that the spir-
1t OF rebellion would have boon sent cowcd
and abashed to its lair We might have re-
torted, too, that had Mr.. BIgler and his party
never repealed the Compromise of 1920, it
would never have required restoration ny the
Crittenden Amendment. We might have said
something about the consistency and good
faith OF Mr.. Bigler and his party at the pres
ent time,-complaning that the Constitution
was NOT amended, while they hoist as their
motto sThe Constitution as il is and the u
nion as il was But we have no disposition
to divert one particle OF the responsibility of
this wicked rebellion from where il properly
rests-upon those conspirators, who at the
head OF armies. in the mad pursuit of power,
are rcddcning their hands in the blood of our
sons, fathers, husbands, brothers. and friends.
To excuse or palate their guilt is but to en-
courage their treason. We tIust in God the
time will speedily come, when these traitors
can be taken in the aggregate that we may
mcte out to them that just retrbution which
their crimes deserve. *E%

HON GLENN W. scoF1ELD,

Below We give extracts from several of the
papers in this district which plainly show how
the nomination of Hon. Gleni W. Sco6eld.
for Congress, is received in other counties:
From the Erie Gazette.
"We commend Mr.. Scofeld to the conf
dence and support OF our fellow citizens
de possesses clear, vigorous, we'll -organi-
zed and well stored mind, and is in every
respect fitted for seat in Congress.
Mr.. Scofield is extensively known as an able
lawyer and forcible and impressive public
speaker. In vigor and clearness of intellect.
and personal character and standing, he has
no superior in this part OF Pennsylvania.
Although not partisan, realizing it to be
duty at the present time by every proper
means to encourage and deveIope the loyal
sentiments OF all parties. he yet is decided
Repnblican-or, in other words, warm friend
TO the National Administration, endorsing
and maintaining its civil and military policy.
and especially the policy which contemplates
vigorous prosecution of the war for the sup
preston of the infamous rebellion. We ask
for him the sufrages of the people of Erie
III.
he will prove himself capable, reliable and
efficient Representatives
From the (Brookville) Jefferson Star.
Hon. GLENN W. ScoFIELD.-In our last
weeks paper, We suggested that Judge Sco-
field was the choice of Jefferson county for
Congress since the declination OF Gen. Patton.
Since then, the Convention met and nomiua-
ted him. This meets the approval of our peo-
pie, and all rejoice in the selection. He made
hosts Of friends here when he presided as
Judge, by his candor and evident fairness.
At the time, We heard dozens of all parties
speak his praise.
In him the people have gentleman of honor
and uprightness-of ability aud legislative
experiance- IRconnection with these qualifi-
cations, he is among the most finished public
speakers in the State. Here, then, is a COM
bination of qualifications that make him the
man for the place. In addition to all of these, he
is war man in the real sense of the term.
In his behalf, we feel free in appealing to the
people ofJefferson county to give him cheer
full and triumphant support. An uncompromi-
sing Union man, he will exert a powerful
influence in behalf of the Union. He comes
from District that has done its full share in
behalf of the government. Every feeling and
aspiration in him beats high for the perpetuity
of the entire nation. Union voters of the
District rally around his standard.

BOYER IN ELK COUNTY.

The following, from the Eik County .qdro-
cate indicates very clearly ga wooily head in
the wood piie'':
1.-The President, in few remarks. stated
the Object OF the meeting, (Democratic), after
which DIR. I. J. Boyer. was called on to nIaks
speech. The Doctor, usual responded to
the call and entertained the audience for about
hall an hour, IN manner ,c' rfhy of nofe
ssDr. G. II. Early was called upon to ad ,Iress
the meeting-aiter the Doctor had concluded
he chair called upon DR.. Boyer to define his
position. on several points. The Doctor took
the floor the second time, and appeared TO be
soTetchdf ercifed. In opinion il would
have been better to treated the matter moro
cool, and by so doing would not offend those
who were opposed TO him in polite point
OF view The doctor should remember that il
is NOT best, eren TO speak The truth, al all fumes.
What's wrong Couldn't the .snnt.rrified'
of Elk swallow the valiant Doctors infidel and
secesh pills? He ssexcited," was he
He'll be more ssexcited, after the I'd Tuesday
OF October, when he discovers how the honest
and loyal Democrats Of this district will spurn
and reprdate the miserable trickery BY which
he got his nomination. What contrast be-
tween this poor, weak, sputtering Doctor
travelling about ssdamning" the Admiutration
and prating about the Constitution which he
does not comprehend,-an Capt. j. IL. Lar
rimer, who was fairly entitled to the nomina-
tion, who is daily exposing his life for the
preservation of that Constitution, and the
maintenance of the Government. But his o.
pinions didn't suit the Breckinridge wire e-pul-
lers, and hence he was set aside for this p lor
creature, whose nauseaiing sentiments are too
disgusting even for some of those who assist
ed in his nomination. Men who vote for such
candidate, knowing his character and opin-
ions, must certainly be wanting in self respect
well as love OF country.

PATRIOTS. TO THE REscus.


The man who fails to perceive that vote
for the Democratic party at the coming cleo
tion will be regarded q repudia.ion of the
war policy CT the Governm enf, must be dull
of apprehension indeed. Let these Democra-
tic cand idates triumph, and everywhere, ,-all
over the land-will be heard the cry, that the
people refuse to sustain the Government in
crushing out this rebellion. In vain will be
the efforts of our brethren and friends in the
field, who are nobly offering their lives sac
rifce to their country. if We at home, show by
our votes that We do not, heart and hand, sus-l
tain the Government and the cause for which
they are Sighting. Let every loyal man, there
fore, go to the polls and deposit his vote for
the representatives of the Union sentiment of
the country-regardless of personal consider
of subordinate questions
regardless of everything but the certainty that
his vote will be counted for his country and
for the war against treason and rebellion.
Thus you can lend helping hand to the Gov
ernment. Thus, you can sustain and encour-
age the heroes in the field. Thus, and thus
only, can you discharge your whole duty, and
cry patriot then be at the polls, resolved to be
earnest, active, and vigilant, lest the enemys
of our country achieve victory more disas-
trous in its consequences than any that have
