FOR DELEGATE IN CONGRESS,
SAMUEL G.. DAILY
Consistency.

On several occasions during the past
Summer, we'expressed a desire through
the advertiser, that a Union candidate,
irrespective of party, should be noml-
mated for Congress. If the Vallandlng-
ham Democrats chose to nominate a can
didate we had no objections, but we
could see no good reason why Union Dem
ocrats and Republicans should be arrayed
against each other. We are still of oPln-
ion that a Republican Convention should
not have been called. But a portion of
Republicans thought differently. They
would not listen to a proposition 20 unite
with Union Democrats. They would
frown and grit their teeth whenever the
idea was mentioned. A strait Republi-
can must be nominated, and all Republi-
cans must support him or leave the party.
They had a holy horror of boiling /: but
thought there was no danger of anybody
doing so Sam Daily and his friends.
Well, the Convention assembled. AL
the candidates, Daily and Taylor includ'
ed, we're pledged 10 abide the decision,

were so clamerous for a straight Repub-

There is no difference in principle be-

In this county, however, there are bu'

sistency, party and principle, merely tC

There is, according to the census,
733, 25S of an excess of males over fe-
males in the United States. The World
states the fact is noteworthy and ought to
quiet the apprehensiOns of those who
feared the war would cause an undue
preponderance of women after peace was
declared. No matter how bloody the
war may be, or how long i! may last, ii
cannot make away with th~ree-quarters of
a million of lives. The waste of life
may make the excess nearly even, but
even then we shall better off than il
England, where the females are in ex-
cess by nearly a million, and the social
problem of the day is how to provide
them with husbands or occupation.

PH1LADELpHIA, Sept. 9.

A special correspondent of the Press
Just returned from Sykesville, says the
rebels are approaching that place. a por-
ton of their cavalry having entered Mon
roe on Sunday morning. Speculations
are rife relating to these movements and
the purpose of Stonewall Jackson. Some
say be is on his way to Gettysburg, Pa.
so, as to be within striking distance of
Chambersburg or York, and that he is
already real Hanover, while others assert
that he has marched to Westminster and
will move thence on Baltimore. Others
think the latter movement is merely a
feint to cover his entrance into Pennsyl-
vania.

NEW YORK, Oept. IL.
The Tribune editorially says The latest
public intelligence is that our army is
concentrating at Rockville, bat from pri-
vate intelligence we learn hat Ghe dispo-
sition of our forces has bee9(made with
reference to further movements. The
Baltimore American of yesterday says
intelligence this morning indicates that
the rebel army have taken a western
route towards Hagerstown, virtually turn
ing their backs on Baltimore and Wash
ington, and moving to a point where they
can reach the Potomac at Williamsport.
While the infantry are moving in this d.
r~ection, their cavalry are scouting toward
the border of York county, Pa. Re-
ports that a number of rebels have crossed
into Maryland are very conflicting. De-
serters place them as high as l00, 900,
but none of our scouts speak of having
seen more than 10000. This last esti-
mate is probable nearer correct.

the dictate of both patriotism and duty to
do it, and that without delay. Our ar

to the Ohio river, and they should be
cheered, aided and strengthened as they
go. May God speed and favor them as

The intelligence which we publish this

highest degree. 1t is she first instalment
of the good news we have been looking
for for some days past.
