Geary blushed to the roots of his hair when ahked how much he got for signing the Calamity bill. lie didn't answer. Gov. Geary put a premium on lust, when he pardoned Cain Nfrris, who outraged the three white girls at Chambersburg. Gov. Geary thinks three thousand dollars enough fur any man's life,lott on a railroad. That's not quite a year's salary fur the Gov ernor. Gov. Geary boasts of having fought a battle "above the clouds." If that is so, he was nearer Heaven then than he'll ever be aain. Gov. Geary tells us that Stonewall Jack nn warned Longtreet to beware of him. That is just what we now tell the people. Beware of Geary ! Gov. Geary, according to John Covode, Chairman of the Radical State Stealing Committee, is the "humbuggedest Gover nor" Pennsylvania ever had. Gov. Geary is partial to black criminals. Hence his pardon of Cain Norris, the infa mous nigger who raped three white girls near Chambersburg. Gov. Geary, when he left the Democratic party, gave us a good riddance of bad rub bUh. We had then one rascal less the Radical one rascal more. Gov. Geary says his personal appearance reared Stonewall Jackson to death. But neither his personal nor political appearance will scare the Democratic party to death. Gov. Geary was paid by the railroads of the State to sign the Calamity bill, which only mulcts the companies in three thousand dollars, no matter bow serious an accident may be. Gov. Geary is as vain as "Captain Jinks of the Hoss Marines." lie is eternally say ing to himself, aud sometimes mutters it aloud : I'm Gov'ner John of the Keystone State, No mortal ntan was e'er so great.

Gov. Gary says he can't prevent special legislation. Yet he boasted that only one bill ever passed over his veto. Here's a dis crepancy. Can the Governor reconcile the two statements 1 Gov. Geary, by signing the Calamity bill, took away from the juries the right to assess the damages of a railroad accideut. He thinks three tliousand dollars is abundantly sufficient to pay for a broken leg or a dislo cated neck. Gov. Geary is proud of Lis whiskers. When in ladies' society, he always manages to draw their attention to his hirsute orna mentation. Hence, silly young ladies in Harrisburg, sing And the Gov'ner with his whiskers. Took a sly glance at me I Gov. Geary, prior to his first nomination, and hen he was fishing for Democratic preference, stated to a friend that he was a Democrat without an "if" or a "but.' lie meant "if he got the nomination, "but" he didn't. Besides Gov. Geary, there is only one other individual in existence that ever fought a battle "above the clouds," and Gabriel is itched him into outer darkness, where he i now weeping and wailing and gnashing i:h teeth.

Considering that tbe gubernatorial salary is only about $5,000 r year, it is natural to ask the question "Where did he get his money V Bellefonle Democratic Watchman. Geary's Valor, Here is another fact to supplement Gea ky's record in the Mexican war. The World has heretofore published the opinion his regiment and the community from which it was recruited entertained of his character and conduct. Now we have something to show how just that opinion was. During the battle of Contreras, fought August 19, 1847, General Scott sent an order to General Quitman for a detachment of two regiments to support the troops engaged. General Quitman's aide intended to select Barnett's New York regiment and Geary's Pennsylvania. But no field officer of the latter could be found with the regiment, and o the aide was compelled to substitute the Palmetto regiment, although its colonol (Buttler) was ill at the time. This colonel was killed next day, as the discreet Geary probably would have been had he not been out of the way when the order came to his regiment. The story that Geary was undis coverable at this critical moment got home to Pennsylvania, and elicited a bitter attack upon that hero from a Pennsylvania papr. This paper came to Geary's notice when our amy was in occupation of the city of Mex ico and after General Quitman had returned to Washington, though the aide in question was still at headquarters. Thereupon, Col onel Geary and his lieutenant-colonel, who was equally implicated, sought out this aide, set forth the slauderous report which was current in Pennsylvania against them, and asked him, a second lieutenant fresh from West Poiut, to give them, two field-officers, a certificate ol courage! This the aide promptly aud decidedly declined to do, on the ground of the glaring impropriety of an officer of his rank' certifying the character of officers of theirs, and pointed out to them that the exhibition of such a testimonial as they asked for would bring more discredit upon them than even their allowing the chargt of cowardice to go unanswered. More over, ha informed them that he could not contradict the article, for that the statements of fact in it, as to their invisibility when wanted, were perfectly correct, though the inferences of cowardice drawn from that fact rniehtbe unwarranted. That aide and second-lieutenant of the war of 1847 was a division commander in the war of 1861, and served as such from the first Bull Ruo to Appomattox Court House. The facts here stated come directly from hiro, and we are empowered to say that his name is quite at the service of General Geary if General Gkaky chooses to apply at this of fice for it. Of such r tuff are Radical military heroes made. N. Y. World. Mr. Thomas Wilt, the volunteer candi date for Commissioner, has withdrawn his order for tickets, and from that fact we con clude that he is no longer in the fisld. Cambria Freeman.

Democrats or Cambria County! a few days only remain until you will be required to de cide upon the important is.-ues, presented to you. Are you willing to acknowledge the ratification of tbe Fifteenth. Amendment by the last Legislature as ihe expression of your feel ings aud opinions on that important subject? Are you willing that the reckless extravagance in the administration of our State government shall continue? Are you satisfied with the offi cial conduct of John W. Geary? Do you be lieve that the commonwealth of Pennsylvania can much longer withstand the effects of radi cal misrule? These are vital questions, effect ing the interests of all, and upon the answer given through tbe ballot-box on Tuesday next depends the continuance of what is manifest to all as a most corrupt administration, or the re demption of our glorious commonwealth from tbe grasp of those who labor to dratroy it, and who seek a continuance of power, if not by your will, then through the medium of negro suffrage. Arouse, then, citizens of Cambria county, to a proper appreciation of the importance of the issues presented. Let your determined efforts, during the few days that remain, show that you are in earnest. Put your shoulders to the wheel work with an earnest desire to correct the existing evils work for the election of tbe re preseutrtives of retrenchment and reform work for the revered principles of democracy work for the success of our worthy candidates -and all will be well. Let an increased vote for the entire democratic ticket be polled in each district, and thus roc will show toi e de termination to elect Packer and Pershing and the other standard-bearers of that party under the auspices of which our country prospered for half a century, aud by which party alone all are assured of a correct find honest administra tion of our governmental affairs. By a change of five votes in each election district in the State. Packer and Pershing can b: elected by 15.0UO majority. Will you do all you can to bring about that change? To work 1 to work! Comply with all the requirements of tbe Regis try Law, and then let nothing deter you from demanding and exercising your rights as citi zens. F. A. Shoemaker, Chairman. The Election, We trust it is entirely unnecessary for us to enter into an extended article to convince any man who professes to be a democrat of the important duty he will have to perform on next Tuesday. That the administration of John W. Geary has been corrupt and wasteful of the public money beyond all for mer precedent that the eipenses of the State government since he came into power have far exceeded those of his predecessor. Gov. Curtin, during the exciting and expen sive year3 cf the war, are propositions that cannot be successfully denied. He has been criminally faithless to all his high sounding and oft-repeated professions of retrenchment and reform. He has deliberately violated and set at naught each aDd every one cf hia own published rules and regulations on tbe subject of the pardoning power. He has been the mere creature and willing instru ment of the Legislative ring, and has yield ed to all their impudent and corrupt de mands. He has been the fast friend, the aider and abettor, of special, dangerous and unconstitutional legislation, to the extent even of placing his official signature to a bill, passed in hot and indecent haste by the last Legislature, abolishing one of the judi cial districts of the State, and that too be fore the people of the district could possibly be consulted in reference to the law, which was subsequently declared to be clearly un constitutional by a full bench of the Su preme Cuurt. He attempted, in October, 1867, to perpetrate a plain and palpable fraud on the ballot-box, by procuring, under a commission issued by himself, the votes of Pennsylvania soldiers at Fort Delaware, en listed in pursuance of a proclamation of the President of the United States, when he well knew thai no such proclamation had ever been issued, and that there were no such soldiers there. He succeeded in pre venting Henry D. Foster from obtaining bis rightful seat in tbe present Congress by a low trick, which stamped him as a thorough paced demagogue. These and many other unworthy things has be done, to tbe shame and disgust of the honest men of bis own party, and he now asks the people to add iosult to injury by endorsing his conduct by a re-election. If the tax -payers of the State will stultify themselves by doing so, then the boasted virtue and ictelligence of tbe people is all a cheat and a sham. His opponent, Asa Packer, is his antipodes in evory respect. He is a gentleman of en larged and liberal views, and understands thoroughly the interests as well as tbe policy of the Slate. No man ever charged Aim with dishonesty, nor docs a solitary blemish rest upon his pure and upright name. His political opponents bear willing testimony to his well earned reputation as an honest, high-minded, useful and enterprising citizen, in every respect admirably qualified for a faithful and enlightened discharge of the du ties of Chief Magistrate of the Common wealth. The political signs indicate his elec tion and thereby the rescue of the State from the slough of radical misrule and corruption. Let every democrat do his duty and Penn sylvania will be herself again. Democrats, do not fail to examine your tickets before voting, aud besure that every naue is the right one. Look out for stick ers and bogus tickets, got up to deceive. TIe State Treasurer, "There is. widespread dissatisfaction with regard to M. -it-key us State Treasurer, through out the State, and a change iu the manage ment of that office appears to be demanded." Allegbanian. From our knowledge of the lobby opera tions of R. W. Mackey at llarrisburg last wiuter, commencing immediately after his nomination as State Tieasurer, we were forced to the conclusion that he is essentially corrupt. Indeed, when it is considered who were the men who procured his nomination by the radical caucus, it could not possibly be otherwise. During the last session Mac i key was the head and front cf what was known as the "Treasury Ring." This was a corrupt combination, organized for the purpose of increasing the amount of sur plus money which always remains in the treasury, in order that the treasurer himself and a few outside friends might speculate upon the public funds and put the proceeds in their own pockets. Accordingly, one of Mackey's first jobs was the introduction into the Legislature, through a friend of the mea sure, of a bill imposing a tax on petroleum and anthracite coal, which would have brought into tbe treasury about half a mil lion of dollars and thereby have enabled him to increase the profits of his office. This infamous bill, through the influence of the Treasurer himself, passed the House by the old dodge of twenty-two members (four teen radicals and eight democrats) absenting themselves from the hall when the final vote was taken. Of course each one of them bad been paid his price. There was honesty enough in the Senate, however, to defeat this corrupt scheme, although the "Treasury Ring" fought desperately for its success. Again, a republican member of tbe Sen ate from Lancaster county introduced a bill into that body, requiring the State Treasu rer to apply eight hundred thousand dollars of the surplus money in the Treasury tow ards the payment of the public debt, thus saving nearly fifty thousand dollars annual ly in iuterest. Although this bill, so just in its object, was vigorously opposed by the same Ring, it passed both Houses, but final ly went to a committee of conference. It was there defeated, and it was charged at the time that its failure to become a law was owing to some mysterious influence which was brought to bear on the committee by this very eanie Statu Treasurer, R. W. Mac key. It is high time that the Legislature would enact a stringent law compelling the State Treasurer to loan the surplus in the Trasu ly and to pay the interest accruing there from into the Treasury, instead of putting It into his own pocket, as he now does. Mr. Wallace, of Clearfield, did introduce a bill with that object in view, during the last ses sion, but for some unexplained reason it was never even reported from the committee. The present practise is a crying evil and against every principle of justice and fair dealing. It is a fraud upon the people, and unless the practise is cut up by the roots the office of State Treasurer will continue to possess the same attractions that now make it the most desirable as well as the most lu crative office in the Stato. CSearj'a Veracity. On last Friday John W. Geary made a speech at New Holland, in Lancaster coun ty in which he said : "While I was fighting and bleeding for you on the field of battle, my opponent was in Paris, along with Mason and Slidell and other traitors and rebels." It is a notorious fact, that among the lead ing radical politicians of this State, Geary's character for truth and veracity is now, and always has been, at a heavy discount. In the very county of Lancaster, where he made the speech referred to, the leaders of his own party make the charge publicly against him, that he will not tell the truth, if a lie will answer his purpose. John W. Geary knows, and could not help knowing, that from the beginning to the close of the war Asa Pac ker was never out of the country for one hour. What must be thought of a miser amVdemagogue, who will tbns stand op and utter a wilful and deliberate calumny against his high-minded opponent? But of such stnff is John W. Geary made. Let him, or any of his supporters, examine the docket of the Quarter Sessious of Cambria county for the July Sessions, 1845, when he lived at the Summit, in this county, and when we knew all about him, and it will then be seen what maimer of man he was. No wonder need then be manifested that Geary is gen erally regarded as an untruthful man, or that he would then, or now, stoop to any device in order to enable him to conquor. Two weeks a so we asked the Harris burg Patriot whether it was trne, as several democratic papers had stated , that the diffi culty between Messrs. Buckalew and Chal fant.in the Columbia, 15th Senatorial district had been settled, and whether Mr. Buck alew had received the nomination, and if so, when and where. The Patriot has not seen proper to answer our questions ; but wa learn from another source that the orig inal disgraceful contest in that strong demo cratic district remains now, as it ended on the 6th of September, when the conference first met, and that both Buckalew and Chalfant are still candidates for Senatorial honors. To all of which we repeat, that such a contest is simply disgraceful, and that although it may be magnificent sport for these two gentlemen thus to play the part of Kilkanny cats with each other, their suicidal conduct may be death to the democratic party, and that at a time when it can least afford it. If the district is lost, by this sense less wrangle between two prominent demo crats, who ought to know better, we can only hope that the blame will be placed where it properly belongs. Are there not still left in that district enough common sense and political honesty to adjust this silly personal quarrel ? We will see. Geary and Special Legislation. John W. Geary, in a speech which he de livered at Troy, in Bradford county, on the 4th ult., thus referred to his official connec tion with special legislation : "We are told by our opponent that Gover nor Geary is remarkably careless about legis lation, that he writes no vetoes, that he should stop all 'special legislation.' In other words, that he should dam up the Mississippi for it amounts to that. Let me tell you, my friends, the fault lies with you. If you are desirous of stopping special legislation, the granting of special powers, and the incorporation of organ ized capital in any particular shape, you must send the proper representatives to Harrisburg so instructed men, too, who will obey your instructions. You are directly responsible for the legislation of your representatives. It is between you and them. The Governor litis no right to stop special legislation simply because he does not see any reason why it should not pass into the statute books." This is a most lame and impotent conclu sion. What is the veto power conferred upon a Governor for, unless it is to arrest unwise and improvident legislation 1 That is its very purpose, and when Geary impu dently undertakes to tell the people that he is powerless, he places a low and false esti mate upon their conception of his constitu tional rights and duties. J,hn T. Hoffman, the present democratic Governor of New York, vetoed more acts of special legislation duiing the first six weeks of his term of of fice, than Geary did during two entire ses sions of our Legislature. The volume of laws passed at tbe last session contain 1,400 pages, more than three-fourths of which are made up of special laws. " Where does Geary get his authority for the remarkable declaration that "the Gover nor has no right to stop special legislation ?" That is precisely what he ought to do, and it is just what he has shamelessly omitted to do. This confession of Geary's, that he cannot stop special legislation, is as untrue as it is humiliating. If the rights of the people are attempted to be sacrificed by un faithful and corrupt representatives, it is the sworn duty of the Executive, in the exercise of his plain right under the constitution, to protect them. If he fails to do so, but be comes a party to the fraud, he is unfit for his position and deserves to be expelled from power. Asa Packer has said, in p'ain and positive language, that if the people will elect him to the t fiice of Governor, he will hold it in trust for the people, and that he will arrest the ceaseless Cow of special legis lation that now disgraces our ttatute books. What he says he will do, he means to per form. Covode at Washington. The Chairman of the Radical State Cen tral Committee is evidently in a sea of trou ble. Knowing that certain defeat is in store for his friend, John W. Geary, and in order, if possible, to arrest that catastrophe, Co vode recently made a sudden visit to Wash ington, and the following despatch relates what he proposed to do in reference to the approaching election in this State : Washington , Sept. 2, 1869, Hon. John Covode, Chairman of the Republican State Central Committee of Pennsylvania, arrived here to-day and hail a long interview with the President relative to the approaching electiou in that State. While Mr. Covode expressed the opinion that Governor Geary would be re elected, he admitted that the contest would be a close one, and that it would require all the influence of the Administration to aid in secu ring success. He told President Grant that his recent visit to the western part of the State had been very beneficial, and he hoped he would now pav a visit to the eastern part. A large fair he said was to be held at Allentown this week, and he thought the President should attend it. The President replied that he would do so if he could atrange his business, and he promised to telegraph Mr. Covode definitely on the subject to-morrow. What a low estimate must John Covode place upon the intelligence of the voters of this State. It shows how desperate are tbe political fortunes of the friends of John W. Geary. Does Covode imagine, for one mo ment, that if he were to place Grant and all his Cabinet on exhibition at the Allentown Fair, there would necessarily follow a revo lution in political sentiment in the Eastern portion of the State, and that the democrats of Lehigh county especially would bo fright ened from their propriety 1 The thought is worthy the astute and capacious mind of Covode. The influence of Grant and two members of his Cabinet, at least, was brought to bear on the late elections in Virginia and Tennessee, and we all know with what dis astrous results to the radical party. But Grant was unwilling to try Covode's experi ment in Eastern Pennsylvania, and wisely refused to come ; which fact, when we con sider his fondness for railroad traveling, is somewhat remarkable. Covode's mission to the White House only affords another illus tration of the old adage, that "a drowning man will catch at straws." TnE Carlisle Herald, a radical sheet, re cently stated that Geary had offered thirty thousand dollars for a farm in Cumberland county. If it was true, as his friends assert ed, that he was a poor man when he was elected Governor, the foregoing statement requires some explanation. 'The salary of the Governor of this Stata is $5,000 per year, and as Geary has only been in office about two years and nine months, it is very evident that he could not have realized $30, 000 out of his yearly pay. Nor have we heard of his political friends and admirers presenting him with a purse. We will ex press no opinion on the subject, but as the affair' has a very ugly look, will leave our readers, as well as all inquiring radicals, to draw their own conclusions. The time for holding the election in Tex as has been extended to four days and ia Mississippi to two. Why is this so and what good reason can be given why the election in these States cannot be held, as they are in all other States, in one day 1 It looks very suspicious, and as though it was de signed to afford the "man and brother" a full aud free opportunity, after he has done his voting in one county, to carpct-bag into another and there repeat the process. Such is one of the beauties of this fraudulent re construction business. - But it will fail in ac complishing its vile purpose. COMMUXICATIOX. Editor Freeman Allow me to say a few words through your paper, respecting a fub ject that now and hereafter may be of some importance to what is sometime called the foreign population of this country. On the eve of every election there is an appeal to or an attack on the prejudices of the foreign voters by public speakers and public prints all professing the most profound regard for their welfare in everything that pertains to our national happiness. It would almost seem as if there was no other class of citi zens but them who had the right to the elictive franchise in this country, and none others whose interests were to be consulted in the administration of the government at home or abroad. The industrial interests are to be conducted for their especial benefit. The gTeat revolutions in Ireland, Spain, and other countries, are to be viewed only as to how they can effect the interests of tht Irish and German population of America. The Irish Republican newspaper publish ed in the city of New York, under the aus pices of one Michael Scanlan, I regard as the most dangerous aud vicious publication in this country. While its native Orange proclivities cannot be concealed, it advocates doctrines which appeal to the worst passions of the human heart. The editor pretends to be a friend of Fenianism, while at thn same time, he is and has been its secret foe. He is a friend of free trade, the most hostile of all doctrines to the poor man. An Irish Republican a term at once obnoxious and detestable to every foreigner, because the idea has associated with it all the innocent blood that ever was spilt iu this country, and all tbe vilest persecutions that ever was suffered by any people their personal rights disregarded, their religion reviled, their churches robbed and burned and just now, by the act of the Republican party in this State, an effort to deprive them of citizen ship by the lately enacted and most bnox ious Registry Law. I trust there is no Irishman or German in this country who will be so far misled by such false advocates of foreign citizens as to be seduced into the support of Republican men and measures. They know their friends and should maintain them, independent of all organizations, influences, or dictation whatever. I Am. Terrible Accident at the Indi ana State Fair. Indianapolis Oct. 2. About four o'clock last evening, a terrible explosion occurred on the west side of tha fair grounds, caused by bursting of a portable engine from the Sumter Machine Works of this city, which had been running a circular saw in a race with some mill machines. The explosion sounded like the discharge of a heavy piece of artillery and scattered the boiler about oromiscuously. throwing heavy pieces several hundred yards. The scene that followed beggars descrip tion. At least twenty thousand persons rushed to tbe scene of disaster, wild ajd frantic with fear and anxiety for the safety of friends. Everything was in the greatest confusion. However, the remains of the killed were soon gathered up, and the wounded placed in wagons and removed to the Surgical In stitu'e and City Hospital, where it was found that some twenty persons had Wen killed outright, and thirty-six wounded, 6ome of whom, it is believed, cannot sur vive. Considering the crowd on the grounds and around the machine, the small numler of killed and wounded is considered a mir acle. Rome cf the victims were literally torn to pieces and the remains were collected to gether from vari ius parts of the inc'osure. The appearance of the victims was appall ing and could not le witnessed by the stout est heart without a shudder. A little babe was killed in its father's arms, but the father escaped without injury. Governor Baker was ou the ground at the time of the explosion. A portion of the boiler passed over his head and struck his coachman, a faw feet in his rear, injuring him severely. The scene at the fair ground, after the ac cident, was most beat trending. Many of the killed were torn in fragments. In one family, consisting of a mother and three children, the mother was killed and the two older children were badly scalded, but the youngest one was unhurt. A gentleman and lady wlio were walking together, the gentleman being killed, and the lady es caping unhurt. Everythiug is being done to alleviate tbe sufferings of the wounded that can be done, though it is feared that several will die. The receipts of the fair to-day will be given for the benefit of the wounded. Young Men's Christian Associations. The Second State Convention of the As sociations of Pennsylvania will meet at Wil liamaport on Ttltsday, Nov. 2d, 18G9, at 7 o'clock, and close oc Thursday evening. Delegations from all the Associations are ex pected, and the attendance of ministers and others interested in the cause from churches in places where no organizations have yet been formed, is also urged. Christian young men in these places are requested to consult together and see that representatives are appointed. Delegates should be provided with credentials, and their names forwarded to Thomas K. Cree, Pittsburg. Arrange ments for reduced fare on the principal lines of travel will probably be made. There was a curious bet made by two sisters, daughters of a wealthy farmer, at a horse race in Dubuque. Iowa, a few days ago. The eldest bet on Wild Rose, the terma being that, if she won, the youngest sister was to remain single for the term of five mortal years ; but, if she lost, she (the elder) must marry within four weeks, a young man of her acauaintance. Wild Rose lost t thi elder sister is therefore held to the terma of her contract, and declares that she will stick to her agreement. Shoe Tips.

Ten men were injured, several seriously, by tbe falling of a trestle bridge at St. Louis on Friday. They were rolling heavy tim ber across the bridge, when it gave way. James Lacby had a drill seven feet long, forced eutirely through his lungs recently by an unexpected explosion in a quarry near Norristown. Yet the Republican says it is thought the patient will recover! The man who votes for Geary, Williams and the radical candidates for the legislature, votes to fasten negro suffrage upon Pennsyl vania in contempt of her constitution, which expressly declares that only white freemen of the age of twenty-one years can exercise the right of suffrage within her borders. Let the Coastitution be preserved inviolate. The Philadelphia Evening Herald calls attention to the fact that on Monday of last week a negro, named John Moore, was put to work as a sailmaker at the Philadelphia navy yard in pursuances of orders from the Secretary of the Navy. The appointment as soon as known, created great excitement, as work is slack and many white men were discharged but a short time since. Hon.

The eDthu&iastic manner in which Judge Packer was received by the thousands as sembled at the State Fair at Harrisburg, on Friday, is ouly another evidence of the strong hoid he has upon the affections and esteem of the masses.
