Although the returns come in slowly, it is now conceded Pennsylvania has gone Union by five thousand majority, .which will be increased to twenty thousand by tho soldiers' vote. We have certainly gained three Congressmen, and the sol diers' vote ye think will make it five. The following will probably be the com plexion cf the next House : I Samuel J. Randall, Dem.

The previous ma jorities, however, were decidedly for tho Union ticket. The presont House is a tie 12 to 12. Besides this, we have a clear majority in both houses of the Legislature on' the heme, vote. So that, if the Copperheads take it into their heads to become the direct cause of the incarceration of another Union State Senator like Harry White in a rebel bastile, it will work not nearly bo much to the disadvantage of the State and the people as it did last winter. Pennsylvania has covered herself with glory. And what will we say of Ohio! This noble old State-ha gone Uniou by 35,000 majority, which will be increased to 80,000 or 90,000 by th soldiers' vote. Out of nineteen Congressmen,, she ha elected soveuteen Union.' The present lloue if fourteen Democrats to ve Union. Her State Legislature is overwhelmingly Union. Indians, too ! Governor Morton, Union, is re-elected by a tremendous majority from ten to twenty thousand. We gain one Congressman and probably three oth ers. The Legislature's Union.' All this means simply that -Abraham Lincoln is to be our next President? The verdict of these three great States settles the question. The people have spoken in thunder tones, and the burden ot their cry is that the rebellion must be put down. Thank God! that the heart of the people beats true to the music of the . Union. Thank God ! that the sacrifices of the 'past three years will not have been in' vain. We will triumph in November. But in order to that end, a thorough reorgan ization of our forces becomes necessary. We will carry the State by fifty thousand majority, but we must work in order to achieve that result. With the proper ef fort, we are confident that here in Cam bria county we can cut down the opposi tion vote at least two hundred, and increase our own in a corresponding ratio. Union men of Cambria ! remember that four years ago, despite the numberless difficul ties against which you had to contend, you gave Abraham Lincoln four hundred and one majority over the opposition nom inees. Remember this fact, and then de termine to emulate your former deeds of greatness and glory. What you did before you can do now, if you only try. To work, then; to work! Lose not a moment by delay ! Seizb the prompt occasion make the thought Start into instant action, and at once Plan and perform, resolve and execute.

When the soldiers vote ia all in, the latter's majority will be 300 to 400. Tuesday : Advices received at this office to-day indicate that Barker h 500 ahead of Johnston on' the soldiers' vote in the district.

Blair 275 Huntingdon -500 Mifflin :....127 Cambria 902 1,437 1,437 902 M'Allister's majority... - 535 Br reference to the table of election returns for Cambria county, it will be seen that, whereas Johnston, opposition candidate for Congress, runs eight votes behind the average majority of his party, and tiz votes ahead of the average strength of hi party, Barker, Union, runs seven teen votes ahead of the. next hightest can didate on his ticket, and twenty-four votes ahead of the average strength of his party. This flatteriDg state of affairs is undoubt edly due to the efforts of the Dem. & Sent. and the Johnstown Democrat, which pa pers, by stigmati2ing Barker as a "Maine Yankee," a "bine-bellied Abolitionist," an "ignorant old' clown' and all that, repossessed the masses ot the people in his jvor, and made them 4iis friend to the extent pf their suffrages. It would be policy in Uuloa men to contribute to the support of these journals, for, so long as they exist will' they lie and slander as heretofore, and their lying and slan dering cannot but redound to the great benefit of the Union party. The Return Judges of this county will re-assemble in Ebensburg on next Friday week, 28th inst., at which time and place the soldiers' vote will-be counted, and placed to the credit of the respective can didates for which it is cast. The official majorities ia the county cannot therefore be determined until then. Cambria County Election Re turns 1SG4. OFFICIAL. i. Long. ... Assent. Sheriff.

Address or the Union State Cen tral Committee. VICTORY I ' VICTORY ! VICTORY I The returns of the late election, now in the possession of this committee, enable it to announce that Pennsylvania has deci ded against ail armistices, and attempts at peace, uDtil rebellion is brokenand trea son disarmed.' Tru6 to her pad t history, the Keystone State arrays herself by the side of Ohio and . Indiana, and proclaims to the world her confidence in an Admin istration true to the Union of the States, and her intention to sustain that Admin istration ' in power until the Union is re stored. - ' The Union party have carried the State, gained three members of Congress, and elected a majority of both houses of the Legislature, on the home vote, and the soldiers' vote as far as received indicates the gain of two more members of Con gress, and a clear Union majority of fif teen thousand votes. This -is a most gratifying result, and should fill the heart of every loyal man with joy. Its impor tance cannot be overestimated in view of the fact that, some seventeen thousand Boldfers who came home last year and voted for Gov. Curtin are now absent with the army, and are yet to be heard from. Besides, it i? computed that, under the last eall of the President, and within the past few months, twenty-three thousand ot our citizens have gone forth to the field. These men are scattered over the whole country, and owiDg to the active operations now in progress, it has been impossible for the commissioners appointed for that purpose to obtain all their votes Thousands and thousands of votes have thus been lost to the Union party, which party can only be depended on to feed the aimy with nhting material-. Under thess circumstances, the com mittee regard the victory achieved as a grand triumph, and congiatulate the coun try upou iti The re-election ot Mr. liiu cola is certain. In November, the State will give a greatly increased majority. There will be but two tickets, and-party lines will bo more distinctly drawn. No loeal jealousies or differences will divide our friends, and, united on the great issue Pennsylvania will poll a vote for Lincoln and Johnson which will prove that she is second to none of her sister States in de votion to the Federal Government. SIMON CAMERON, - Chairman Union State Central Com. Sequel to J. D.'s Confessions General Cooper, Inspector General o: rebel army, has supplied a very appropri ate supplement to Jeff. Davi. Macon speech. . It is iu the shape of an order to the effect that every one liable to the reoc cohscriptiou heretofore exempted, must report at once for duty in the field. Opjy those mechanics employed in government workshops axe excepted from the general dralt. kick and physically disabled per sons must, in all cases, report themselves at the camp of instruction, and if, after undergoing a certain amount of drill, they prove unfit for military duty, may get off. General Cooper's order, however, must be obeyed. Ve couirueod it3 study as practical commentary on Jeff Davis' confes sion that two-thirds 01 his army have deserted him, and as a confirmation of General Grant's averment that the con spirators arc bound to rob "the cradle and the grave. The Kichmond Enquirer, in publishing this order, takes occasion to commend it. wisdom, evidently contemplating satisfac tory, results from having the "physically disabled" sent to the front. Thearrange ment. is-doubtless made with a view to desertions. A battalion or two of cripples can probably be depended on not to run away, at least. Jeff. Davis throws himself on the matrons, widows and maidens of Georgia. Gen. Cooper, who is the ranking officer in the Confederate army, rushes with his Provost Marshals to, the hospitals, to see if his quotas cannot be made up from that source. JJut the liichmond Enquirer, while" approving of what both these officials have done, expresses the opinion that something more may now be needed to prevent a collapse of the Con federacy. The Enquirer, in short, calls lustily for a general arming of near o slaves. "The President' it says, "has announ ced the startling fact, that two-thirds of the army are absent without leave. At present all are needed, and all must come forward. Those that delay or shirJe will be hunted down and permanently sent to the army. He should be glad to see the Confederate Congress provide for the purchase of two hundred and fifty thou sand negroes, present them with their freedom .and the privilege of remaining in the States, and arm, equip, drill and fight them." Slavery, tho Enquirer concludes, must "not be permitted to stand in the way of the success of our cause." " Other Slates may decide for themselves, but Virginia, after exhausting her whites, will fijht her blacks through to the last man. These bo brave words, no doubt: but there are one or two reflections which they suggest, not altogether of a consola tory kind looking from the. Enquirer s stand point. If two-thirds of the Confed erate armies all white men have already run away from Davis and his man Cooper, and are now hiding in the mountain re gions of Georgia and elsewhere, what pro portion of the black levies can be expected to stand to their colors 1 Has the chiv alry thus degenerated that two-thirds of them absolutely refuse to fight for their own independence t Davis assured Col. Jacques, a few weeks ago, that two mil lions of his black slaves had been eman cipated by the advance of the United States armies. At that rate ot emancipa tion, is it not likely that the negroes may prefer to win their freedom at a cheaper rate than the Enquirer proposes? These are points wnicn we , presume Uavis and Cooper have reflected on with some care, betore tney - Degan this ordering "physically disordered" men to the front. or of screeching for help ot the women and children. B?i,When General M'Clellan was in command of the armies of the United States, ho wrote certain instructions to Gen. ' Buell, then commanding in Ken tucky; in which he (Gen. M'Clellan) said: "I know that 1 express the leelings and opinions of the President, when I say that we are fighting only to preserve the integrity of the Union and the constitu tional authority of the General Govern ment."' . - Yet General M'Clellan intimates,' and his supporters never weary of asserting. that thig is a "wicked Abolition war," wrong in its origin and infamous ia its course. Which is which ! . The Charleston Mercury said : "If we hold our own and prevent further military successes on the part of our foes, there is every prospect that M Clellan will "be elected, and his election upon the Chicago platform must leatd to peace and our independence." v ... ' . . ; Death of Chief-Justice Taney. Rodger Brooke Taney, Chief-Justice of the Supreme Court cf the United States, died in Washington, on Wednesday even ing, Oct. 12, after au illness of a lew days. Descended f.rom a family of English lio mau Catholics, which settled in 31arybnd about the middle of the seventeenth cen tury, he was born in Calvert county, Md., March 17, 1777, and was consequently iu his eighty-eighth year at the time ot his death. He was graduated at Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa., in 1795, admitted in 17i)9 to the bar of his native county, from which he was elected a delegate to the General Assembly, and in ,1801 removed his place of residence to Freder ick. In 1822 he removed to Baltimore, having previously served as Senator in the Legislature of the State during a term of four years. . He was appointed Attorney General of Maryland in 1827, and in 1831 was appointed Attorney General of the Unked States by President Jackson. Du ring the contest of the Administration with the Bank of the United States, upon the dismissal of Mr. Duane from the office of Secretary of Treasury, Sept. 23, 1833, on account of his refusal to remove the deposits, Mr. Taney was appointed his successor, and immediately ordered the transfer of the deposits to the local banks selected by him as the agents of the Gov ernment. The Senate refused to confirm the nomination by a vote of 28 to 18, in June, 1834. In the following year, he was nominated by President Jackson as an associate justice of the Supreme Court, j but he was virtually rejected by the Sen ate, which indefinitely postponed the con sideration of the subject on the last day of the term. Upon the death of Chief Justice Marshall, he was appointed his successor by President Jackson, and was confirmed by the Senate in March, 183G, that body having changed its political relations. He took his seat upon the Supreme bench in January, 1S37, and held the office until the time of his death. Chief-Justice Taney gained an unenviable notoriety by his famous decision in the Dred Scott case, ruling that "negroes, whether slaves or free, were regarded for a long time previous to the Declaration of Independence as beings of an inferior order, with no right." which the white man was bound to respect,' and therefore were not included among tha "people" in the terms of that instrument, and had no claims to Dc renarau as citizens 01 me United States.. , . Competent' Wltnesse s. I'cndletou. Mr. Pendleton cannot feel flattered by the treatment he receives from the Demo cratic press of the east. They rarely or never mention his name. They do not expatiate upon his merits. We really think that they have not said so much as the ltepublican leaders in commendation of his personal qualities. Ihey do not dwell at all upou his political views. When openly challenged, they decline to commend or explain his record. They keep a stubborn silence in respect to him, 00 a 4 my 1 vr enm nf ltrtnd m raa n oAn -v f whom the parents and brothers and sisters are ashamed. They seem to think that if they say nothing about Pendleton and the Chicago platform, they can keep both him and it out of sisrht. We hope ihat Mr. Pendleton enjoys this position which he occupies. But the people will not forget who he is or for what office he is running. They will not forget that they cannot vote for M'Clellan without voting for him. They will not forget that Mdellau has no immunity from the ordinary mortal lot of man, though the extravagant and fuisome praises of him by some of his adorers indicate that these regard him as a dcuii- nrl T'ho fntli rvf IIarrInr nnil tliA death of Taylor are fresh in the memory of us all. In casting our votes wo are bound to consider the contingency of the death of the first candidate 00 the ticket and tho accession of the second in his place. If a man is disposed to vote for M Clellan. he is boucd to ask himself whether he can conscientiously do it, when by that act he tries to place an avowed peace man within one step of the Presidential chair. He must remem ber that Pendleton has declared that if the Southern States wished to go, they should be allowed to depart, and we should dismiss them with tender tokens of love. He must reflect upon the consequences of having such a man at the head of our Government during the critical period which is before us. The Democratic trick of keeping still about Pendleton in the hope chat his offensive doctrines will be overlooked, will not succeed. E-"If," eaid'Hon" J. L. M. Curry, rebel Senator from Alabama, in a late speech, "the party pledged to give the Confederates justice and restore peace to our bleeding country, shall elect their man, such a shout as was never heard before would spread over our afflicted South; our independence would be forever established. .But should Lincoln be re elected, our hopes will be dashed to the ground our independence but a thing to be dreamed of. B.The Indianapolis Sentinel confesses that its party has in view the recognition t the licbel Confederacy. In tho event of M'CIellan's election,. it says: . "llis programme will be a cessation of hostilities, and attempt to restore the Union by compromise and reconciliation, or failing in that, taking , the . last extreme recognition. ftaT The Charleston Courier said : "Our success .in battle insures the success of M'Clellan. Our failure will inevitably oad to his defeat." - . , speakers in our county, going about J ning that the rebellion cannot be sl! - j by arms, and that some other way ou"' to be tried, the following are some of'th' authorities whose voicea are heard on tv other side: tbe Sas Lieut.

There can be no such thin as laying down of arms or cessation of hostilities until the entire authority of the government is acknowledged by citizen of the country." Says 3Iaj. Gen. Logan : "The greatest victory of the rebel greater than Manassas, and their only one tnat can give therr. will be to defeat incoming campaign. Says Maj. Gen. Dix: - "My desire is to do all in my power to sustain the government in its efforts to put down the rebellion an object to be effected, in my judgmeut, by a steaiy aud unswerving prosecution of the war."
