TO RESTORE THE SICK TO HEALTH.

The blood must be purified. and all medicines
are useless which do not possess the quality OF
stimulating the blood to discharge its impurities
into the bowels. BRASpRrru's Pulls possess thi,

adults; adapted to both sexes, and are as inno-

The following is All extract from Wash
ington special under date Of the 23d inst. ::
The Committee On Military Affairs are
considering the. question Of repeating the
5000 exemption clause in the enrolment
bill They will probably report in favor Of
o repeal Of that measure 1t is the opinion
Of very many republicans that ii is the only
wsy to raise ali army.
For the sake ofjusticc and the good name
Of the nation, we trust this unrighteors
provision may be blottcd from among the
lows. It is fraud upon the country, 4 d.
rect hid for the blood of poor men; STUN
bling block in the way Of successful militia
ry operations, which sooner or later should
this war continue year or two longer, must
be seriously felt We trust that there is
wisdom enough in Congress to see the true
barring OF this provision and resolution
enough to kick ont this prop upon which
tens Of thouoand; Of load mouthcd ''patri
OTIS are leaning There must be draft
during this year, and before it is made We
hope to see "A clear field Had we the law
10 make we would not only cxpungc com
mutations but also substitutes, but the lat
ter is not so ohjeeiional q feature as the FOR
ncr, and il may be wise in Congress to let
it remain We shall look with deep anxiety
for the announcement Of the death of the
$500 clause. It las already kept thousands
from the field, sand as draft becomes general
wo.lld furnish whole armies with an excuse
for staying at home Away with such rub
bish.
TIE meeting held last Monday night at
Cooper Institute, New York, to advance the
dress reform movement, was mismanagcd,
dsordcrly and futile. 1t is said that the
pledge offered was not sufficiently stringent,
and in fact might prove altogether inopera-
| tive, on account Of the insertion Of the
| word convenient" and from the fact that
many ladies may go gorgcousiy dressed in
the silks Of Their present well stocked
warlrobcs Miss Susan Il. Anthony made
stirring speech. Among other things she
said
If understand the spirit Of the women
here to-day it is that they want pledge so
strong and thorough, that every one who
gives her name to it, will be compelled to
make sacrifice. (Applausc) If the ave-
nue. has already silks, and satins, and bro
-cades to last for five, ten, or fifteen years,
il the war should continue so long, and if
the avenue wear brocades and satins, the
poor working woman who earns three or
five dollars week, must make an attempt
to appear as well as the Fifth Avenue lady.
Here is the point of difference in the assem-
bly,. We demand pledge made by the
women Of the Empire City. that will place
Fifth Avenue on a level with other streets
Of the city.
Our mothers did not pledge themselves
to dispense with the use Of tea provided it
was made convenient Iadies-''That is
good.") They did not say if our husband
chances to be worth $4,000 or a million,
She may use ore pound or ten pounds
That was not the point II was crime to
find it clcsctcd in the house at ALT We
want the women Of the North to pledge
themselves to something definite tina,

THE DRAFT.

The draft for Bedford County was made at
Ckarabers5urg on the 2Ist inst But few OF the
districts bad filled theirquotas so that nearly tue
whole county was drafted The school Board
and citizens Of Bedford Boroagh, Bloody Run
Boroughand Broadtop township raised a suticcnt
sum to pay q bounty Of $3.50, and thus relieved
themselves from the conscription Every district
in the County might and should have been reliev-
ed If the Copperhead Commissioners had done as
they should have done, If they had exercised
the power given them By the laws passed at the
late sessions OF the legislature they could easily
have raised sum sufficient to have procured vol
unteers, and thus have preyensel single man
from being drafted The C3mms iensrs OF other
counties did so and the citizens OF these counties
arenodoubt to-day rejoicing that they were saved,
all trouble by the timely action OF their public Off
GERS. But the Commissioners of Bedford count
could not see IT, They were urged over and over
again to take action upon the subject, but the ad-
vice of our most prudent, wise, and prominent
men-men too who are large property holders
was disregarded and the consequence is that hun
dredS of the citizens ofthe county have been corr
scrpted We hope that the conscripts will re-
member all such officers We trust also that
they willnot forget the Copperhead leaders who
adyiced the Commissioners to pursue the course
that they have taken. They talk long and loud
about slaughter pens Recollect conscripts
who put you into these pens.

FIICEPT VS.. EXAMYLE.

The Copperhead leaders in Bedford Borough
have taken special palms, in season and out of sea
son, to denounce the war and every thing connect
ed with particularly the draft which was so
strongly recommended By General Mcclellan
No language was sufficiently bitter to express their
feelings upon that satject. The war they say
oaeh sc Ae stopped, No man ought to enlist
and the eonscription should be resisted. The
President calls for five hundred thousand more
men to put down the infamous rebellion Thou
sands of patriotic men volunteer but the quota of
Pennsylvania is not filed and draft must be
mace to obtain the deficiency. Bedford county
is largely IN arrear her eopperhead Commission
ers refusing to raise money to pay bounty, and
her copperhead leaders c5scouragng enlistments
Their teaching paralize all efforts which wonld
have been iae in the different districts to escape
the draft. Tine moyeson The draft is made
but Bedford Borough has filed her quota Their
cunning leaders have taken good care Of them
selves and the people Of the eoant9a districts who
followed the bad course Of their leaders may sue
fer.

BosToN, Sept 2l-Gentlemen ~ feel it my
dnty to make one step more in The direction indi-
Gated by my letter Of the Goth Of August, and
Withdraw my name from the list Of candidates,
The Presidential question has ia effect been On
tered upon such a way that the union Of the Re-
publican party has become paramount necessity.
The policy Of the Democratic party signifies either
separation or re-est4hishment with slavery The
Chicago platform rs simply separation. General
Mcclellan 5 letter ofacceptanee is re-establishment
with slavery
The Republican candidate, on the contrary, is
pledged TO the establishment of the Union with
out slavery and, however hesitating his policy
may be the pressure Of his party will be may
hope, force him To IT,
Between these issues ] think no man Of the lib
era party can remain in doubt and believe ! ana
consistent with my autecedent in Withdrawing
rot to aid I'D triumph Of Mr.. Lincoln but to do
ny part towards preventing the election Of the
Democratic candidate.
In respect to Air. Lincoln / continue to hold
exactly the sentiments eontaIaed in my letter Of
acceptance. ! consider th4t his Administration
has been politically, militariy and financially a
failure, and that lis necessary continuance is q
cause or regret for the country
There never was greeseF Hnanimity Id the
country than was exhibited reattbe falief SUm-
ter and the South was p0waTiess in the face of il
but Mr. Lincoln completely paTaized this geBef-
ols feeling. He destroyed the strength of the
position and divided The North when he declared
to the South that slavery should be protected II
He has huilt up for the South strength which
otherwise they could have never attained, and this
has given them an advocate on the chicago plat
form
The Cleveland Convention was to haze been ID
open ayowai OF that condemnation which men had
been freely expressing to each other for the past
two years and which bad been made fully known
10 the President, hut in the uncertain condition
Of affairs lealing men were not found willing 60
make public dissatisfaction and condemnation
which could have rendered Dir. lincoln noinina
ton impossible, and their continued silence and
support established for him q character among the
people which leaves noW 40 choice.
United the Republican party IS reasonably sure
of success divided the result of the Presidential
election i at least doubtful
