THE WORK REFORE TIE FRIENDS or
TIIE UNION.

BY singularly fortunate provision the peo-
pie OF Pennsylvania are enabled to obtain
legitimate estimate Of political opinion
month in advance ofthe Presidential election.
This information Is now In possession of the
public. 1t Is encouraging in the highest de-
gree to the friends Of the Union and the Gov
ernnent, and 20 an equal extent is disheart
ening to the worshippers Of the Chicago plat
form. This is apparent through the fmsy
disguise of big type and whistling editorials in
the Age, aud through the forced smiles of the
sleek leaders and orators who tread for a brief
hour the stage Of the Continental Concert
Saloon.
Enough likewise IS known 20 demand from
this time forth the most unceasing and unsel-
fish labors from every man who feels that the
surrender Of the Government into the hind
of the Copperheads will be death-blow TO the
cause of civil liberty on this continent,
We therefore say to every lover of his coun-
| try, to every true Democrat, and to every
American who loathes foreign interference
| with our liberties and our institutions, to give
up everything else from now until the 9Th o
November, and bestow time, and energy, and
means towards the election Of ABRAHAM
| LINCOLN.
Lay aside all personal feeling and private
| grieis. Sink all minor causes Of objection
in the paramount cause Of the nation
Organize in your townships and districts
in your wards and precincts. Mingle
with your neighbors, persuade your friends
Encourage the faint-hearted and confirm tn,
strong. These are the great duties Of the
hour and beside them all other claims and re
sponsibillties fade into nothing.

Dr. q. A. Blake. agent Of the United States
Sanitary Commission at New Orleans, under
date Of September 20, 1864, writes ;--"Geuersl
Candy has ordered the quartermssters TO forward
70 our prisoners in Texas clothing aud medicines.
Our commissioner has arranged with Major Igus-
thus Szymansli, Commissioner Of Exchange for
the Rebels in the Trans-Mississippi Department
an exchange for three thousand four hundred
and fifty of our soldiers now in Caiap Ford, in
Guiding navui prisoners. Possibly the number
may be reduced, and the naval prisoners be
obliged 10 remain at Camp Ford.
"Instances Of cruelty A. Camp Ford have heeu
few and at the last interview Of the commissioners
18Th inst.-the Rebel commissioner informed
ours that he had caused the removal Of the cap
tain formerly in command Of the camp, as insult
able TO command q camp Of prisoners, and better
things may be hoped for. Tho prisoners that
have come in FROM Rebellion west Of the Msss-
sippi river present rugged AS well as ragged
| appearance, and no great amount OF sickness
| among them is reported. Last week the stores
! ordered by General Candy were forwarded, con.
| sistng of a complete outfit for twelve hundred
| men, including blankets aud hayersacks. Foul
| hundred csutoCns, sixty axes and aXe-hclyes and
| medicines were also forwarded"

THE rRUIIs or OUR VICTORIES.

The efforts made by the Democratic leaders
10 create the impression that public sentiment
has changed with regard TO the great princ-
pies upon which the Government Is waglng
the war against rebels and traitors, would be
ludicrous If they did not compel respect by
their despair. The powerful party machinery
which has brought every vote to the polls, Is
only paralleled by the ingenious though moro
delicate system Of SO manipulating the returns
and befogging the issues as 10 lead a few timid
folks Of the better sort to believe that there
is ground for doom and dependency,
On the contrary, the result in the three
great States is not only victory, but it Is an
overwhelming avalanche of triumph. All the
cheers from cOpper-lined throats, though
Chestnut street were packed from tho Age
Office TO the MCCLELLAN headquarters, can
not alter the issue that we have gained in the
three States twenty-five representatives in the
next Congress. And all the big type and
bold headings in the Age and World offices
cannot blot out the fact that Pennsylvania,
Ohio, and Indiana are sure for LINCOLN and
JOHNSON in November, together with every
other State except New Jersey.

Lord John Russell endeavored 10 persuade
