Ammunition.

Some idea OF the amnun: of ammunition re-
qnred to supply ali array such as Gen. Nc
Clellan's, during a heavy fight like that of
Anlle'am, may he gained from the fact that
thirty eight tons "f ammunition were for
war led To Gen. Mcclellan from Washington
via Baltimore, Harrisburg and Hager>town.
An eyewitness If the battle states that he
counted, at four different times during the
day, the number Of discharges from the Union
artillery, and found that they were made at
the rate of seventy-eight 10 the minute.

Resistance to the Draft In schuylkill County

We learn from Schuylkill county that the
troubles growing out Of the draft are assum-
ing formidable aspect. Over five thousand
miners and coliers have armed themselves,
and are showing a disposition to make des-
perate resistance. The Governor has been
notified and the aid of the authorities invok-
ed. Il appears that on Tuesday last great
number of the coliers in !SchuylkiIl county
were stopped in their operations by band
Of miners, who ptrambulated the road, and
insisted upon all the employees joining them
in riptous proceedings. The cause of the
ouibl eak is a determined resolution on the
part of the miners to resist the impending
draft. Ii is estimated that at least three
thousand men are engaged IN the affair, and
the u;.roar will, it is anticipated, extend
thr ughout the whole mininr region. The
ri ters are nearly all armed with bludgeons
Of iron, swords, and every other variety Of
weapon.
The riot is said to have originated in Case
township, Schuylkill county, where on Tues
day last SO much resistance was offered To
the enforcement Of the draft that the Com
missioner dcesed it expe rcnt To post tpone it
until Monday next. The miners threaten to
offer she G vernment of the State either the
alternative OF not drafting or Of remaining en-
trely unsupplie with coal from this region
Since the origin of the disturbance the re
ccuts of coal in this city, from sSchnvlki!l
county, at Richmond, have been about one
half less than usual, and yesterday ab put one
thlrd only Of the usual amount was received.
1t will require at least two regiments and
a battary to qucll the turnult which was still
proceeding with increasing violence on Thurs
day. A railroad train from an adjoining
county, transporting drafted men to Htrrs
burg, was stopped by gang of the miners,
aud the men within invited TO step into Il g
road, where they We're assured all attempts
To coerce them To se've the GOyernmf Mt
would be unavaiIing. Manyqf them did so.and
are now in company with the >trlker>.-Er.

TlGanies and Taxes.

The Tiffany firm pitched their tent in this
town nearly tArer years ago, and opened the
grand exhibition Of the " Babes in the woods. ="
They have voted the abolition ticket regu lar
ly at every general and Borough election
without challenge as to qualification, until
the last election, when it was thought that
they not havirg paid farthing ofState or
County tax in our borough since their debut
their right to vote was doubtful, their votes
were accordingly challenged. Both Of these
puppets fairly danced with rage, and "swore
like prares," conduct very unbecoming
Babes in the woods,) but their swearing did
not change the facts as recorded on the tax
lists in the commissioners office. They now
say, and judging from he psst, We presume
they woCd not hesitate to swear to ii, that
they have paid ever since being here. two
dollars tax to our one, and expect to contin-
ue right OH paying" as they have DONE
Now amt this generous in these Babes, to
open their show right here, and pay such a

LOYALTY and Disloyalty

The Journal of Commerce says We
tied in this country. That party spirit against
which all the great ard good men of old time
warned the citizens Of the American Repub-
lie, but which humanity, perhaps, must eall
into, has led US to an opening Of a campaign
in politics in which one party without hesita-
ton pronounces the other tratorous and re-
beiIious. This is the highest fever of party
spirit. 1t would lead at the next step to
battle for personal safety, since the party
thus denouncng its opponents must necessar-
lily insist on the prnpriety of mprsonng and
they believe themselves loyal, must necesSar
lily dsmand that their rial be held in due
form of law, and Justify resistance to all at
tempts at executing them without regular
process, conviction, and sentence.
There stands the tact in the history of
America, that two great portions were en-
gagged in civil war, and one Of those portions
being divided into two parties on the ques-
tons growing out of the war, one party pro
nounces the other rebelious and traltorous
party.
Blu. the next fact is more startling still
1t appears al the election that the party thus
brande as traitors and rebels are in large
majority in the three great States of Penn
sylvania, Ohio, and ln0ianna, and this leads
tn th hnnf RI tl,av III a., L., 1
ger majority in the Empire State. What,
then, becomes Of the party which boasted its
foyalty and abused its opponents Can
majority OF the people of the United States
be reasonable IN mere matter of opinion as
to the policy which should control the war
Never was more tremendous rebuke give
to the madness of Abolition radicalI,m than
1t has received in the result of these elections.
Now, as heretofore, the Abolition leaders
have endeavored to ke' p back all the real is
sues out Of sight, and persuade the people
that tie question before them was a question
Of toyGLy or II edS0n. But with that issue
offered by the radicals, The peopie hare chos
en- tie side lchich the politicians called trea-
son, and the terrible truth stares these men
in the face'ihat they have been telling Eu-
rope and the South that majority of the
men of the Northern States were actually IN
sympathy with tr ,asor Fortunately the
world places no confidence in these Abolition
slaaderers. They have deceived the nation
too often, and their character is known and
read Of all men.

that the President has no constitutional pow
