THE PEOPLE'S FIZZLE. The Conveution of the Peoples' party met at this place on Tuesday evening of last week. If the attendance and spirit manifested, is any indication, the concern is on its last legs. In more than one half of the election districts, no delegates were elected, and where meetings were held, the attendance consisted of from two to six aspirants for offices. By dint of coaxiDgon the part of the wire workers here, men in attendance at Court were persuaded to act as delegates, until something oror one half of the towns were responded to.

The Convention was presided over by C. 11. BALLARD, of Columbia, who was not nominated for Register and Recorder, three years ago. Ib the list of delegates are the names of men who have never voted a Republican ticket, nor have ever professed to be anything but Democrats of the Copperhead stripe. To such straits were the leaders driven in order to make a show as to delegates.

It was reasonable to expect that in thus starting a new party, the movers wouid set forth the principles which govern and the motives which actuated them, in breaking loose from their former party associations. We have, consequently, read with care their reso- Intions to see the reasons given to the public. As near as we can arrive at the substance of the long-winded, incoherent, rambling, pointless resolutions published, they have but one idea, viz: The Tonnage Tax, and their complaints about the Pennsylvania Railroad are so feebly expressed in the overflow of words, that wo are unable to arrive a.t the issue they would make. As near as we can understand it, however, it is that if the Peoples' party had succcded iu electing Mr. M'KEAX and TJCRRY to the Legislature last fall, they would "thus sent representatives to our State Legislature who would not only have voted right on the Tonnage question, but have been active and influential in behalf of the interests of their constituents." That the mcu who control the Peoples' party of this County, care nothing about the Tonnage question, except as a hobby to effect political ends, he must be very verdaut who for a moment believes.

If they were honest in their pretended abhorrence of the Pennsylvania Railroad, they would be ready at least to do Messrs. LATORTE and LILLF.Y justice. These gentlemen have voted in the Legislature on every occasion against the demands of the Pennsylvania Railroad Mr. LAPORTE was previously committed, by his Legislative course, against the repeal of the Tonnage tax, and voted last session to reinstate it. Instead of acknowledging his services, the Peoples' party in Convention assembled, indirectly attempt to convey an impression that he had voted and acted to the contrary, when the action of both cur Representatives is well known to every man who lias watched the Legislative proceedings.

This attempt at trickery and falsification is in keeping with the origin and history of the Peoples' movement. Originating in malice, prejudice and ambitious designs, it can only be kept alive by falsehood and misrepresentation, and the leaders by their unscrupulous knavery hope to make the people believe what the Legislative Journal shows to be a falsehood. The resolutions declare that this bolting, democratic-embracing, movement, is the simon pure Union party of the County, and of course its delegates the only ones entitled to a seat ia the Pittsburg Convention, as the Republican party of this County represents a political party independent and distinct in its neither the name or the single purpose of the L'nion organization of this State." We have no particular desire to discuss the question of the admission of dalegates from this county into the PittsburgConvention. The interlopers who claim to represent Bradford by virtue of their affiliation with the Copperheads will find delegates from this County, able and willing to maintain their right to their seats. Since 1855 the Republicans of Bradford have sent delegates to Union State Conventions who have been received without question, anu because the bolters see St, in connexion with Democrats, to elect delegates to the coming Convention, we have no fears lint that that body will recognize the legitimacy of those who have heretofore been in State Conventions, and have constituted an important part of the great Union narty of the State.

Any other course would be simply absurd. Tbc "publican delegates present themselves at Pittsburg is Aacnl lbc votcr3 0 tbjs County wbo expect to lbe nomina tions of that Convention. Xr atvl his colleagues expect to pledge tueu oof Tap head coadjutors to the same course Certainly not yet they are asking admission as the representatives of a party, two-thirds of whose members spurn the thought of supporting tlx nominees of the Pittsburg Convention. will take au nnparelleled amouut of effrontery to urge the admission of such delegates. IISNRY W.

TRACY and JOHN C. ADAMS were elected as Representative delegates, and WM. C. 800 ART recommended as Senatorial delegate to Pittsburg. Tho proceedings as published say that Mr.

TRACY endorsed the Convention at length. very eloquently and ably." Wo cannot as certain that Mr. TRACY defined his position to the satisfaction of any perhaps Iwe may have more satisfactory information when the search for the unfortunate individual who heard his speech entire, is successful. Col. SMITH then responded to a call in his usually eloquent and concise manner, and the i Convention adjourned.

BiSf We give in another column, a letter from Col. MADII.L, and a list of killed, wounded aud missing in the. 141 st Regiment. The list of casualties speaks more eloquently than words of the bravery of this regiment. They went into battle with 443 men, and suffer a loss of proportion unparalleled in the history of the war.

We learn private sources, that every man in the regiment bc' baved a single instance of cowardice occurring. Their great loss is owing to the manner in which they were front and on the flank, and they stood bravely under a galling fire, and when ordered to retire, did so in perfect order. The officers, field and line, distinguished themselves by their coolness and bravery. One half of their number suffered. We shall take occasion hereafter to speak more particularly of them, as they deserve.

The long list of casualties which we publish brings sorrow and gloom to many a hearth in I this county. Anxious relatives and friends will find there the name they dread co see. As to the ccndition and fate of many of those reported wounded and missing, there it still an uncertainty which is more dreadful than the realization of the worst fears. We sincerely sympathize with those who mourn lor the dead, the wounded, and the missing. We trust that many a heart now nearly broken with grief, is yet to be made glad by the return of the loved one mourned for.

EUwWc have had au opportunity, during the past week, of conversing with many Republicans, and of ascertaining the feeling throughout the County. We are pleased to see the disposition manifested to uphold the standard of Republican principles aguiust the attacks of our opponents, and the disorganizing aud co vert assaults of pretended friends. The spirit of the party is fully aroused. They are awaking to a sense of the danger which threatens us the designs of the Democratic leaders, foreshadowed by the revalations of Lord LYONS. The pretended loyalty of those who are only awaiting a favorable moment to clam or for a dishonorable longer deceives any OGe.

Their hypocrisy is too apparent and their purpose obnoxious to the people. From every township we hear the" most cheering reports. The honest supporters of I the People's ticket last fall, are fast becoming satisfied that the movement was under the control, and made for the benefit of the Democracy, and arc determined hereafter to vote in such a manner as shall best advance their principles, and not give their aid to carry out schemes cf personal aggrandizement, or gratify the personal animosity or spite of a few disappointed office-set kers. The Argus twits ns with having in time gone by, acted with PIGLET Co, gentlemen whom it and the clique surrounding it now so cordially embrace and act with, i We plead gnilty to the charge. It was about the time Col.

PIOLI.F.T offered the Proviso res olutions in the Legislature, and Democratic County Conventions were passing the strongest Free Soil resolutions, voted for, in many instances by the Argus' new found friends. We have not the slightest idea they will offer us any sympathy or support, until like the Argus we shall apostatize from our principles and sell ourselves to a course which shall aid the Democracy. The Argus is welcome to its new acquaintances, and to all the I credit it gains from aiding their plans. The leaders of the Peoples' party are a in great dilemma. The Republicans in the organization have no idea of aiding the Democracy, while the Democrats are already threatening to bolt, if Republican principles and the War is endorsed.

The prospect of harmonious action between these incongruous elements, just now, is not very Perhaps, however, tho leaders on both sides, can fix matters so as to deceive the voters, once more. The mcetiug of the People's tion, called to town, on Tuesday, the usual and inevitable number of Democratic leaders, whose confcrnccs with those engineering the bolting machine were frequent and is not to be wondered at, as they have a common purpose to subserve, and a common 1 hatred of active Republicans, and a common dislike of Republican principles. Since the recrossing of the Rappahannock, by HOOKER'S army, a thousand rumors 3 have been flying through the country. The fact is, that the army is now occupying the camps they left when the forward movement commenced, and no portion of tho army had again crossed the Rappahannock. All aci represent the troops as in good coodie dit.on, tw.i oa Cr a a to be led against the enemy.

Madill. HEADQUARTERS 141 ST ILR.N. PA. May 7, 180.1. DEAR SIR It is -ruth A sad heart that I attempt, this evening, to write yon a few lines relative to the affairs of the Regiment.

We went into the fight at Chancellorsville on Sunday morning, May 3, at half atcr six o'clock, with four hundred and nineteen men and twenty-four commissioned officers. We were in the fight two hoars and forty minutes, and lost two hundred and thirty men, inclnd ing twelve officers. There is scarcely a man in the Regiment who has not the mark of a bullet on his person. In Company (Capt. MERCUR,) there are but two men who escaped without the mark of a same is mostly the case with all the other companies of the Regiment.

I need say nothing to you of the bravery of my men and officers. The annexed list of killed, wouuded and missing, but too eloquently tells how nobly they have done their duty. I i escaped unhurt. I had five bullets through my coat, r.nd my horse shot under me. Poor ATKIN'S fell while gallantly encouraging the men to hold the position, an ex tremcly dangerous one, as he occupied the right of the line of battle, and the enemy on our flank.

Col. ATKINS had his horse shot from under him, or rather while in the net of mounting nim, on Friday evening, by a shell, which passed entirely through the horse. lie i was again thrown from his horse, by the explosion of a shell, on Sunday morning. The shell exploded so near him that it threw him and his horse entirely over. The wound the Coloiul received is not necessarily a fatal one, and with care he will recover.

He was taken from the field by one of the fficers of the Regiment, and left in a i hospital near the Chancellor Mansion." He was quite weak from loss of blood. When 1 left there, the hospital fell into the hands of the enemy, a few moments after he was left there. Several of our surgeons were there at the time and were captured. Colonel ATKINS needs nothing said by me to establish his efficiency as an officer, or Lis bravery as a soldier. He has given that evidence with his blood.

The men reported as missing iu the annexed list, are, I fear, either killed or wouuded, and in the hands of the enemy. My impression is that but very few, if any, were taken prisonera. It, is a sad task for me to send this list for publication, but i feel that it is tny duty to inform the friends of those brave men, the condition of those that are near and dear to them. The following, taken from the correspondence of the Missouri Democrat, written from Capt. Girardeau, April 20, 1803, con tains an account of the wounding of Captain STKITI EN V.

CHII'MAX, formerly of this place, now iti the Ist Wisconsin Cavalry Yesterday a flag of truce was sent in from the rebels with Capt. Shipman of the Ist Wis- con sin cavalry, whom they had badiy wounded fight at the White Water river, where he, with a company of fifty men, were guarding a bridge, about sixteen miles from this i place, and were suddenly surrounded by a largely superior force. Captain SHIPMAN would have successfully cut his way through their line but for an accident. He charged upon and broke their lines, and fought hand to hand with saber and pistol, killing two or three of their men with his own hand and his noble band fought with desperation also but his bridle rein was cut, and Ids horse became unmanageable, during which he was wounded dangerously in the thigh, the thigh 1 bone being shattered, and he with his men taken prisoners, lie behaved nobly through- out, and when the rebel commander sent a large force to accompany the flag of truce, he remonstrated against it as a dishonorable use of the flag, intended for some ulterior purpose, ond requested that he should be left, to die by i the roadside rather than such a thing should be done. The flag of truce, however, was not i permitted to come beyond our outer pickets, where Captain Shipman was received and brought to the general hospital, where 1 am now writing, and where he is under the ex- cedent care of Surgeon McClellan in charge 5 Gen.

McNeil has spoken of him today in the highest terms, and faint hopes are enter- i taiued that be will survive his dangerous 1 wound, though the fear of a fatal termination predominates, lie is now resting quietly, with every care and attention that meuical skill can I afford. i Latest accounts from Capt. S. represent him as beiug in a very critical coudition, with but faint hopes of his surviving. JEtey The news from Mississippi is highly important, manifesting as it does that the movements of General Grant between Jackson aud Vicksburg are bringing matters to an issue there.

A despatch from Cairo last night says that according to the, Memphis Bulletin Jackson is already invested, and that the reb els have no way of getting out of Vicksburg but by cutting their way through the national forces. A rebel despatch from Jackson to Richmond, dated the sth, says that the Union 3 troops were repulsed the day previous at An- kersou's Ferry, on Black, after fonr 1 hours severe fighting. Several mistakes having occurred in the proceedings of the Republican Convention, published last week, we republish them in this i week's paper. From the list of delegates some names may possibly be ommitted, as no list was furnished us, and this is made up from the credentials, so far as we could find them. li' Col.

On motion, the Convention then adjourned (Signed by the Officers.) WASHINGTON, Tuesday, May 12.15G3. THE RECOVERY Or THE BODIES OK OUR SLAIN. Gentlemen recently arrived here and pro ceeded to the Rappahannock to recover the bodies of their friends, who fell in the recent battles. One of them, in a private note ceived in Washington to-day, says a communication had transmitted to Gen. Lee for permission to pass inside of his lines for tLat purpose.

Although, ou Sunday night, no re I sponse had been received from Lee, it was understood from the officers receiving the communication at the river thai there would be no unnecessary obstacle thrown iu their way. 1 Subsequently, the enemy commenced sending over the river, under a flag of truce, considerable numbers of our wounded, who had been paroled. For several days past supplies and medicines have been sent over from our side. TITF. I'OSiriON OF THE REBELS.

A report was current yesterday that the enemy had left their formidable position along the heights, but a close observation last even i ing discloses the fact that the numbers there had not been diminished. They were still at that point yesterday morning. At the time of our recrossing the river at United States Ford, it is believed that only two divisions of the enemy's forces were on our front, near Chancellorsville, as a rear guard. The sions mentioned were commauded by Geus. Anderson and McLairs.

CAP.E OF OUR WOUNDED IN REBEL HANDS. Dr. Webster still remains in the enemy's lines, in care of the wounded. Dr. Lnkeley, who was captured at Chancellorsville, sends back word that our wouuded generally were doing well.

OUR FORCES ALL ON THIS SIDE OF THE RIVER. Notwithstanding all the reports that onr troops have again crossed the Rappahannock, it was not the case up to Monday noon. General Braxton Bragg sends an account to Richmond of onr cavalry raid in Georgia, lie describes the resistance offered to our troops as stubborn, and boldly maintained from point to point, resulting, as we know, in the capture of Colonel Strcight's com' by General Forrest, near Rome.

One week ago General Hooker issued a general order (which has just got into print) congratulating his army upon th achievemci lof the preceding seven days. The reasons for the reerossing of the river were of a character not to be foreseen or prevented by human sa i gacity or resources; and the withdrawal out a general battle was an evidence of the implicit confidence of the army in itself and of fidelity to the principles it represents. The Army of the Potomac will be the guardian of its own its recent movement it has added laurels to its former renown it has made long marches, crossed rivers, suri prisee the enemy in his rivers, surprised the enemy in his intrcnchinents, and inflicted heavier wounds than it has received.
