meet us in a fair open field and tell the
people their name and what they are
fighting for. They are fighting behind a
battery of falsehood as they always have
done, and can be easily routed before the
invincible column of truth. Then let us
have no fear, Mcclellan is a gentleman,
a soldier, a statesman and above all an
honest man. Lincoln is a clown, a pal
troon, truckster and above all dIshon-
est man. If the fiat of destruction to
this country has not been willed by
Omnipotence, then there is no danger, we
have nothing to fear, if it be otherwise,
let us do our whole duty and we have no
person to blame

Enposisions or. Drafted Men.

We have been informed of two draft
ing cases in the county Of Cambria,
which bear very strong resemblance to
other prevalent species of ''loyal" rob-
berry. A poor man, who is small far
mer, in Croylei township, was drafted at
the last spring draft he reported and
was put into service. He was man of
weakly constitution, and had been pros
trated during all last winter with a dis
eased lung. His physician informed him
and every one so believed-that he was
unfit for service, yet he was accepted by
the examining ''surgeon." He was sent
to Carlisle and his wife and little children
were left to shift for themselves Being
unable to harvest the meagre crop, the
most of it has been lost to them In the
meantime the poor conscript was kept for
weeks at Carlisle, until, finally, he was
examined by-it is presumed-an intelli-
gent and regular army surgeon and dis
charged. Being poor and without money
he was compelled to walk the whole dis
tance back to his impoverished and grief
stricken mountain home-a victim either
to the quackery of a village doctor, digni-
lieu lnto surgeon OF an enrOlllnI
board" or to plan TO extort money from
the people :" for the support of the Gov
ernment." Let either be the correct So
luton, and the case looks very bad
Another case is that Of a young drafted
man, in the same township, who had the
disease called "white swelling" to such
an extent as to incapacitate him for ac-
- Il
strong assurances from physician IN
Johnstown thBt he was unfit for military
service. Yet he was passed by the Board,
and sent to Carlisle. where, after being
detained for several weeks, he was ex-
amined and discharged, and left to find
his way back home as best he might.
These are two case from among others
that might be mentioned of a similar

Democratic Meetings.

Sec the calls by our talented and wor-
thy Chairman of the County Committee,
for the different meetings in the north OF
the County. Let them be well attended,
we will see that you will have speakers to
address you at all those meetings, men in
whose doctrine you can implicitly rely.
So surely as the sun rises in the east and
sets in the west, so surely will we out
flank these Union men as they call them
selves now.
They are like Penitentiary birds they
never appear two years under the same
name They are always adopting the
name of the party that opposes them
" stealing the livery of heaven to serve
the devil in." Why don't they come out
under their own true name Abolitionists :?
Do they not know that that is their right
name, if so, then they have no appellation
but plunderers. Were they to call them
selves Union men without slavery then we
could say that there was something in it.
That is the doctrine of their great leader

sTo All Whom II May concern, :,

1t is well known fact, that at the last
election, certain Board of Election Off
GERS, in this County received and counted
the votes OF several soldiers tcho ocere not
citizens Of tbs !St1ae. In as much as the
counting of these votes could not change
the result, no objection was made to the
reception of the return At the meeting of
the return judges. The officers of the
Election Board referred to, knew, or
ought to have known, that the votes OF
these soldiers were clearly illegal. We
desire now merely to warn them and all
those who may be disposed to follow their
example, that the provision of the 81 st
section of the Election Law OF July 2nd
1889, in reference to prosecutions against
election officers, will be promptly and
literally enforced, in each and every in
stance where they are violated.

of freedom Nor should this important
subject be prejudiced with questions about
putting the negro on an equality with our
friends, brothers and tatheres. Many
of the soldiers in their childhood were
fondled and nursed by faithful negro nurses
and yet no question of equality was ever
raised. Many man has manumitted

We learn that the planters in the ex-

The following short letter from Ed
ward Burk will explain itself. We have
known Mr. Burk for quarter of CEN
tury, and during that time he has been
rich and poor, and getting to be pretty
well off again. In all his vicissitudes of
fortune, he was free man, entitled if he
did anything amiss or contrary to law, to
speedy trial by an impartial jury of his
peers in his own vicinage, according to
the Constitution of his country. He was
under Democratic government all his
life and could not be kidnapped from his
own county by all the powers of earth or
under the earth But he las outlived
that, he has lived to see the days of. Abra-
ham Lincoln, these dark and bloody days
of the nations degradation. But these
days are numbered, or else the days of
the existence of the United States are
numbered. We no have doubt but they
will resort to the old dodge of Thaddeus
Stephens of carrying the election by fraud.
but it will not avail them. Let tyrants
beware

Is Lincoln guilty of treason to his
countrys Let us see how treason is de-
fined; it is defined to be either levying war
against ones country, or adhering to Its
enemies. We don't blame Abraham for
levying war against his country, but we
blame him for adhering to its enemies.
The Abolition party are enemies to the
country, not only now but always have
been enemies to the Union. Every per-
son knows that the Abolition party al
ways did want dissolution of the Union,
and want il yet if slavery can't be abol-

give them aid and comfort. We will not
condemn him without hearing as he and

We have been involved for nearly

effective only in giving union, strength and

his freedom, for it is only operative where
our armies go, and without it the armies
