Tory shert.

We have received copy of the Egyp-
tian Picket Guard, published at Chester,
Illinois. II is the meanest sort of lick
spittle Secession organ. Speaking of
VALLANDIGHAn's notorious and villainous
address, it remarks:
We like the men who madeit, we like
the principles IL avows, and we like the
object for which it was written.
We can tell this Egyptian that the
Union men of the South regard IL as the
production of q pack Of traitors They
detest both the address and its authors.
1t thinks that it would have been better
for the country off the President had
yeat still further in General HUNTERS
case. The editor of the Egyptian Picket
Guard is an ignorant blockhead, it APP
pears, as well as traitor. He ought to
call his sheet Egyptian Darkness We

1t strikes us that those newspapers in
the North which are cIamoring incessant-
ly for the abolition of slavery are max
ing a tremendous fuss to no purpose. 1t
really appears to us that the rebels are
doing that job for them as rapidly as
OWEN LovEJoY himself could desire.
Southern secessionism is the speediest
method yet devised for killing slavery.
1t has pretty nearly demolished the sys-
tenn already. A few months more of re-
bellion will finish the job thoroughly.

Loyalty will never consent to hold

Loyalty will never consent to hold a
divided empire with treason and rebel
lion. 1t is a fearful vow which the
American people have taken; either to
subdue or ertermiaote he l0bOle race Of
rebels. Rebel leaders Of Nashville and
Of Tennessee, take warning before it is
too late Justice holds her naked sword
above your heads in no idle menace. If
it becomes necessary by your wicked
and insane Obstinaey, the last traitor
who walks upon the soil of the republic
shall be cut off from the face of the earth.
Mercy viii not much longer plead with
you, and rest assured that patriotism,
now as resistless in it's might as a rush
ing avalanche, will accept nothing save
unconditional submission, and win crush
to atoms every opposing obstacle.

Decidedly the best thing that we have
ever seen in a rebel paper is the follow
ing remarks about Yankees in the Rich
naond Examiner
There is nothing so grateful 10 those
cute and acquisitive people as TO find a
great deal of work done to their hand by
other people, for which they hare aothiilg
10 pay.
This is exhilarating, when we reflect
that 10 get something for nothing is the
end Of a rebels existence, Why, the re-
bells stole forts, arms, money, and all
they could lay hands on, to begin their
rebellion.

In EXCELLENT COMPANY notice that
Henry W. Tracy has had himself nominated
for Congress, in the Bradford district, by So
called " People'sr Convention, and that the
loqaacioas and ubiquitous Victor Emanuel
Piolet, (of McCook bribery notoriety, has
undertaken the task of electing Mr. Tracy, by
villifying, traducing and belying Hon GEO
LANDoN, the Union candidate in that district
for Congress-
1t is not our business to interfere with the
candidates or the difference existing among
the people in any of the election districts of the
state, outside of the one in which we are
voter, and yet we cannot refrain from express
sing our surprise to fnd Mr. Tracy in his pre-.
ent company-in company of such sheer poll
tical harliquins and weather-cocks of the Piol-
let stripe. If Mr.. Tracy had done nothing
but accept nomination from such creatures
it would be sufficient to damn him in the es i.
nation of decent and independent men-but as
he has allowed his name to be used as means
of contributing to the success of a clique noto-
riously in conclave to bring disgrace on the
country and defeat to our armies, he must earn
for himself, before he gets through with the
work which has been allotted to him by these
demagogues, measure of infamy which it
will be hard for him to shake off We cannot
for moment believe that any independent
Republican OR loyal man will support Mr. Ira.

ues as Piollet, and their kindred associates -

Mr. GooDR1CH-!Su The editor of the

Convention, has said that the delegates from
this Borough 10 that Convention would have
voted for TRACY, had it not been for LrLLEy.
Now, as one of those delegates, | distinctly de-
ny the assertion. Mr.. LILLEY. nor any other
man, knew anything of my votes in that Con-
vention till they were cast, save the one on
Representative. l went into the Convention
free to vote as l saw fit. yet | had my
mind made up before the convention assembled.
| voted for Mr. LANDoN because judged him
to be the best man for the place, and not be-
cause Mr.. LILLEY wished me to, and in fact
knew nothing of his wishes in the matter
The editor of the Argus may wish to show
that the majority of the Convention favored
his side of the question, but let him do it by
producing facts, if he can, but not by asser-
tions that are as false as can be-
am confident that the other delegats from
