UNION STATE TICKET,
To the voters Of the IsIh COnEressiOna
District


In urging upon the voters Of the 18th
Congressional district the reelection of
Hon. A, G. Riddle, we desire to present
the following facts.
The present Congress has exceeded, in
Importance Of the work committed to it,
any previous Congress since the adoption
Of the Federal Constitution, while the COM
ing one will have resting upon it an even
greater responsibility than this one. The
nation is to be saved from destruction,
lst By crushing the rebellion, and ID, by
restoring harmony between the rebelliOus
States and the Government. The present
body has devoted itself to the accomplish
ment Of both Of these objects, andit will re-
main for the coming one to complete the
work.
In the action Of the present Congress,
Mr. Riddle-although one Of the youngest
MEMBERSHIPS taken a prominent and lead
ing part. His voice and vote have been
found in favor of all the measures Of pub
lie safety which were in accordance with
present justice and future good. He voted
in favor of putting into the hands of the
Executive all the men and money asked
for to put down the rebellion, and no man
has been more urgent for determined
prosecution Of the war than he.
he voted for, and earnestly sustained
the cozhscation and emancipation bill,
which strikes at the heart of the rebellion.
By the passage Of this bill the whole House
came upon the same ground that had been
taken year before by Mr. Riddle, when
he voted against the Crittenden resolu-
tions, thus paying a very high tribute to
the honesty, boldness and sagacity which
led him to take that action. Those resOlu-
tiOns were shrewdly intended as a commit
tai of Congress to the doctrine of total
non-interference with slavery under any
and all circumstances. To any such pledge
Mr. Riddle would not give his name or in
fuenee, and the result shows that he only
anticipated by a year the voice of Con-
gress and the country.
The Homestead bill, the abolition of
slavery in the District of Columbia, the
freedom of the territories, the recognition
Of Hayti and Liberia, the amendment of
the Fugitive Slave Law, (requiring the
claimant to prove that he has always been
loyal, the Presidents plan for emancipa-
ting the slaves in the Border States, the |
Pacific Railroad Bill, and others of the
prominent acts Of the last session have all
found warm-hearted supporterin Mr. Rid
de
The people of this district are now called
upon to say whether they approve of the
course of this Congress or not. If they
do, then let them re-elect those who have
given it its. high character; if not, then
they will rejeet-thsaa,-+ts they decide for
or against these men, so will the pro-
slavery, icon -ervative," and Democratic
world decide as to the strength of their
anti-slavery and patriotic convictions.

A BattIe near Harerstown.

We have indefinite reports of a heavy
battle near Hagerstown, Maryland, on
Saturday. An earnest appeal was made by
the State authorities at Harrisburg, upon
Philadelphia for men. No time was to be
lost in organization into brigades or regi-
ments, but they were called for by compan-
les and squads. Hagerstown is only about
twenty miles from Chambersburg Pa, and
the rich country around. A letter from
HagerstOwn, written on Friday last, says
Middletown, eighteen miles distant,
was occupied by the rebels this morning,
about two hundred taking formal posses
sion and declaring martial law.
In anticipation Of such an event, many
of the Union residents, whose names had
been forwarded by their secession neigh
bors to Frederick, left the previous even
ing and early in the morning, thus esca-
ping the draft the rebels are said to be en-
forcing from the enrolled lists taken from
the National officer, although they claim to
have come here to protect Marylanders
from the National draft. Most of the ref
ugees came to this city, but finding the
people here exercised about their own safe
ty they kept on into Pennsylvania, every
avenue Of travel being clOgged with CON
Veyances.
1t is also feared that the rebels will
cross at Antiedam Ford, eight miles above
Harper's Ferry, and after reducing that
stronghold, attack this place. "
A dispatch of Friday says that the rebel
forces consisted of infantry and artillery,
and they had over 200 pieces of cannon,
some of which were very large. The reb-
ell Generals Robert E. Lee, Stonewall jack
son, Howell Cobb, and others, were with
them.

n. W. Goodhue and tho Leador,


The Summit County " Union newspaper
made two brutal assaults upon Mr.. Riddle,
and spoke in warm terms of Mr. GOodhue,
and all in such a way as to lead to the in
ference that it abused Mr. Riddle for the
benefit of Mr.. GoOdhue.
In denying the charges made upon Mr..
Riddle, we spoke of the Union as the
"organ of Mr.. Goodhue. In so speaking
We perhaps did him injustice; at any rate
he seOlds Us in the Herald like highly
ineensed individual, if not like a deeply
grieved fellow-citzen. We are glad to
learn that the Union is not Mr.. G's or
gan, and we eheerfuIly correct our error.
We certainly did not intimate that Mr..
Goodhue writes for the Union, nOtwilh-
Standing their apparent similarity Of SEN
timents, tastes and style. Nor yet that the
Union praises him for hire. Its admi-
ration seems too hearty and profound for
that We are glad to know that Mr.. Good
hue is thankful for even its praise-it in
icates q very grateful disposition.
On the whole we submit to good Mr..
Goodhue whether our natural mistake
called for SO extensive and diffusive lines
sf remark as he indulged in.
IF our defense Of Mr.. Riddle Injuries him
we see nothing in Mr.. GOOdhue's card
that leads US to suppose that he regrets
that. He s careful to express no disap-
probation Of the course Of the Union
towards Mr.. Riddle, and he finds fault on
" with those who defend him. He seems
not only content to have him beaten out Of
the way, but has his own low fling at
him besides,
So far AZ. We are concerned we wish only
to ssy that in the very paragraph Ofwhich
Mr.. Goodhue complains, We took pains to
say that he had been appointed to a most
responsible place, BY high and distin-
guished officials, and that thus endorsed
and vouched for he was candidate fol
Congress, and " up anl running" What
more could We say And for this he calls
US names, makes insinuations and imputa-
tons and raises a good hue and cry gener.
ally. We are almost aggrieved ourselves

this secesh Democracy is to 20 into the
primary meetings of the Union Party as
Union men and thus cause their baleful
influence to be felt. It cannot be avoided.

The Peril to our Army in East Tennnssee.
The following is an extract of letter
from distinguished Union officer, serving
with the forces under General Morgan, at
Cumberland Gap. Later dispatches report
that General Morgan had captured train
of provisions, which will give him tempo
rary relief. Meanwhile something must
be done TO save him and the position which
he holds:

1t is whispered-says Ship Island cor
respondent Of the Philadelphia Press-that
1000 troops, under Brigadier General Ar
mold will attack Mobile before many days
has elapsed. Doubtless the marines with
Admiral Farragut's squadron win havean
opportunity to participate in the exhilera-
ting sport. It would only be an act Of
charity to the poor fellows, who have been
oooped up on shipboard so many months
A. 70 whether the attack viii prove sue

CUMBERLAND GAP, August p.
We are surrounded and our supplies are cut
off, The rebels have twenty thousand men
just out Of cannon reach, and their pickets
run across the mountain, from valley to
valley, up to within two miles of this Gap.
More of the enemy's troops are now on
their way from Knoxville, and two rebel
columns have gained our rear, oneo of which
crossed over by Rogers and the other by
Big Creek Gap.
One of these columns, under Kirby
Smith, is, it is said, about to push its way
up to Northern Kentucky, to attempt to
cross the Ohio river, and by the time this
reaches you, if it ever does, the whole of
Eastern Kentucky will fear, have fallen
into the hands of the rebels, and we may
be isolated by a distance of hundreds of
miles from the only region from which we
can hope for succor. We have begged for
reinfOrcements and support for two months
past, so that we might penetrate into East
Tennessee, where both friends and sup
plies await us, but the authorities at Wash
ington have turned deaf ear to our en-
treaties.
Though the rebel force is great on all
sides Of us, 1 do not believe they will dare
to attack us. They evacuated this strong
hold with force 5000 strong, and with
reinforcement Of Il, 900 within three hours
march. This was more than twice the
number Of the National force with which
General Morgan captured the Gap, and
which had no reinforcements within dis
tance of one hundred miles. But the en-
emy is unable to cope with such determined
men as compose this little army.
/ am assured by the highest authority
here, that in no eUeHt tsiU Cumberland Gap
be surrendered or evacuated. The only means
the rebels have Of destroying us is to starve
US to death and 1 own that in this respect
the prospect looks somewhat gloomy. If
the rebels now moving northward reach
the Ohio river, we shall then despair of re-
lief; and by the end of September or 0c-
tober, our bones bleaching on the noun
tains may be all that can be found of Gen
eral Morgan's army.
If it be in the programme Of the Govern
ment to relieve us, column of 20, 900 men
must be Immediately sent from Lexington
II can be done. Ohio, Indiana and Ken
lucky can furnish the troops; and if they
are not hampered by absurd orders, the
column might yet reach us in time. Gen
eral Morgan says that, if apprised of the
approach of relieving force, he himself
would advance to meet it with portion of
his army, and cut his way through the be-
leaguering rebels or perish in the attempt.
The enemy's troops are like famished
wolves. Hunger has made them desperate.
Look out for ravages, if they get up into
the blue grass regions of Kentucky

On every side, we hear 1t said that Ameri-
can merchants, lawyers, and mechanics are
annually growing feebler, and becoming
shorter lived, and oil for lack Of cheerful
exercise in the open air. This fact, bccom.
ing widely known, has led to the establishment
Of gymnasiums, boat,clubs, ballclubs, etc.,
all over the country. For persons who can.
not get muscular exercise In any Uther way,
this Is all very well. But he who can get
control Of ground enough for garden will
be much better of, and especially IL he owns
the garden. This pleasing occupation is far
more healthfhl than wrenchng gymnastics
practiced by the clock, or the highly exciting
and overtiring cxertions of boat racing, and
ba'l-playing. Morning and evening spent

Kind Treatment.

! The New York (Porter's) Spirit Of Tie
Times has the following interesting anec'
dote:
1t is said that "soA answer turneth
away wrath" and We know that genteness
will win, when cruelty fails. OF this the
following incident gives an illustration ::
As we were walking up Broadway, that
splendid river Of people, which at the slight
est obstacle forms into large gatherings, We
noticed crowd Of people on the sidewalks
and streets, and forcing our way, We saw a
lady and gentleman occupying carriage be-
hind baulky horse; the wagon was pushed,
the wheels were seized, horses head twisted,
but he would not bulge. We saw a stall
wart man punish him cruelty with a whip,
every blow resounding and thrilling through
US with pain, still he would not move. The
crowd increased, the occupants were embar.
rassed, when another resumed the lash with
greater cruelty, but in vain. On the instant,
we saw young gentleman coming thr ugh
the crowd; there was a button on his coat !;
we do not know whether he is Of the army or
navy; but he was right true gentleman.
He seized the whip from the hands Of the
tOrnentors, handed it to the gontlemIn in
the carriage, courteOusly commanded the
men to leave the horse entirely alone, placed
his arm under the horses neck, caressing
him and speaking gently to him. At this
time the gathering was very dense. Pic.
ture 10 your mind, reader, the spectacle. A
lady and gentleman in wagon, this young
man with his arm around the neck of horse,
and he, as IL were, the centre Of an ampi.
theatre. After the lapse of two or three
minutes, he took the horse by the bride; re.
luctantly he took step forward; soon
broke into q gallop, the young man by his
side, when he broke into sharp trot, and
left, and the youth retired with reclamation.
Ibis incident gives US higher notion Of
human nature, and convinced US that cruelty
Is ever unnecessary.
