six States. These happen to be the large

THE SoLDIERs AND LITTLE MAo.-The fol.
lowing passage in letter from Washington,
dated September 6, shows the feeling of the
soldiers:
"a regiment passed down the avenue last
night about nine o'clock what regiment ii
was don't know, but it had just returned,
and such cheering for Little Mac never has
been heard in these streets since have been
here, especially wher they passed the White
House. From the time they came in hearing
till they passed out, it was one continued yell
ing for Mac, and the ironical greeting "How
are you, old Abe" 7NF

PoILtIoaIIrens.

It is not sure that the Republicans have
carried Maine by 10000. The telegraph last
night advises us, that ''if.so-be" the majority
shall reach 20, 900, why, then 10000 it will
be Just so.
When did Medary and McMasters become
authority With the Republicans A few weeks
ago, and both these gentlemen we're denoun-
ced as traitors and falsi6ers unworthy Of
belief What do Republicans expect to gain
by quoting their assertions now
General Wool-the incompetent, whom
General Scott relieved without solicitation,
begging him TO retire to some salubrious re.
treat for the benefit of his health--goes
against Mcclellan, This was TO be expected.
The Black Republicans are welcome to the
support Of Wool ard Of everything woody.
The soldiers of the Army of the Potomac
are almost universally for Little Mac They
recollect his brilliant services--the wonderful
achievements for which Lincoln gave him
eleven thousand thanks-the brilant victory
at Antietam which saved the capitol-and
they will not vote against him, and for the
man whose criminal iutermeddling prevented
the capture of Richmond
1t is interesting to see Black Republican
papers, which, little while ago, asserted that
greenbacks we're as good as gold, now depre-
ciating the value Of the Lincoln currency -
Having run up State taxes alone-to say
nf EaAa a. ,uhs
full sum of 2.45 per cent in the city, the Jour.
nal consoles the taxpayers by telling them
that the currency is nearly worthless anyhow,
and that when they uomnally pay 2.45, it ac-
tually amounts to only ninety eight one-hun-
dredths Of Que per cent We did not expect
things to take this turn. Taxpayers can t
see it.
The telegraph reports that Hon. Fernando
Wood was Kissed (as we'll as cheered) by an
audience in Albany. That's common. Sal
mon P. Chase was Kissed by the Convention
which his friends asked to nominate him for
Congress.
Ex-Governor Bigler, one of the first and
abest statesman in the country, has been nom.
mated for Congress in the CIearfeld District
Pennsylvania
The rebel papers, so far as they have ex-
pressed preference for candidates, are unan-
imous for Lincoln. The only aid and com
fort they have received since the war began
has been from the atrocious threats and ut.
terances of Black Republican leaders, which
have servel to unite them. The Democratic
promise to give them their constitutional
rights, demoralizes their armies, and spreads
terror among their leaders. Once assured
that their rights would be given them, their
armies would melt away, and all resistance
would cease.

HoRRIBLE TRAGEDY-An instance of youth.
ful depravity occurred on Friday afternoon at
Bristol, Bucks county The crime in this
case was murder committed by a child.
The perpetrator was a lad of only eleven
years, named Charles Johnson. His victim
was child of only seven summers. His
name was Joseph Fisher The dreadful deed
was committed in the house where Johson' 8
parents reside. Whether the boy enticed
mis- companion to enter the house with the
deliberate intention Of killing him, or wheth-

must remain unknown, unless it shall be dis.

this dreadful act, the boysh murderer, fearful
Of discovery Of his crime, dragged the body

house, and placed it upon pile OF shavings
