The excuses made by our Democratic neighbor", for tlteir defeat in tbis county, are amusing. The Independent says, "whatever fault may have been found with our county ticket, none can find fault ith our Presidential ticket." If this is bo, can our neighbor tell why the leading papers of tho Democratic party have been urging the withdrawal of Seymour and Blair, and putting better men in their place? Does not this proposition to "swap horses," at this critical moment, look os if some Demo crats did find fault? Desperation. A prominent Democrat, whom we met in the cars a few days since, stated that the Democratic party claimed the 79 electoral rotes of tho rebel States for Seymour and Blair, whether they received them or not, and if they could get votes enough from other Slates, in addition, to elect him, they would make him President by force if necessary. This is Frank Blair's revolutionary doctrine, and proves conclu sively tbBt tbe flection of Seymour and Blair means war, which nothing can avert but tho election of Grant. Ocn neighbor of the Gazttte suggests a change in the time of the meeting of the Return .TuJpes from Friday to Wednesday or Thursday, and advises special legislation on the subject. This is impracticable. The Legislature might be induced to pass a general law for th'e State, but they never would sanction different return days in dif ferent counties to suit the convenience of publishers, neither would it be advisable. TnosE who desire peace and prosperity should vote for Grant and Colfax. The election of Seymour and Blair means revolu tion, and a continuance of the quarrel be tween the President and Congress, four years longer. The Reconstruction of the rebel States could never be aecoroplisbed by Horatio Seymour, or any successor elect ed to carry out the policy of President John son. Gen. Grsnt and Congress will act in harmony, and all will go on well. So far as peace is concerned, it would be better to continue Johnson than to elect Scvmour. A Chanue. Some of toe Democrats are urging the election of Seymour on the ground of making a change. Such a change would be from a bad President to one who promises to be still worse from the frying pan into the fire. "We also want a change, but that change will be made by electing an honest, true and loyal Republican. President in the person of Gen. Grant. Scsbubt has given a larger increased Republican majority, since 1806, than any town we know of, and we are frequently congratulated on account thereof. In 1806, the Republican mnjority was 140. In Octo ber, 1808, it was 287 out of 160 votes. On Tuesday next we intend to give Grant and Colfax 800. Up, boys, and at them. Lit every Republican, and every friend of his country, bo prompt in coming to the polls and vote for Grant and Colfax. The times require not only a good and true man, but one of nerve, firmness and decision of character. One who will administer justice with firmness, tempered with mercy. One who cannot be ewayed from his duty by friends or foes. Such a man is Gen. Grarrt. In this respect he stands without a peer in this country. Naturalizations. Tbe New York 7V lune, referring-to the frauds of the naturali zation mills in Philadelphia, urges Congress to pass new law on the subject, in w hich there should be a provision that no voter should vote until three months after he had been naturalized. . i M Regard for tub Memory of every Union man, who gave his life for the country, de mands the defuat of Seymour and Bluir. What voter who honors the brave men w ho went forth to fight and die for the Union will now vote for the candidates of the rebels t The Democrats boast that they have na turalized 18,000 persons in New York and Brooklyn, and about 10.000 in Philadelphia. Col. Case, Collector of the Port at Phila delphia, lu a Utter published ia the Pim, decltret himself ia favor of Grant and Colfax. The premium on gold ka fallen 15 per cent, since the election on the 13th, Graot't lection will bring it down 30 par cent, be fore the float f tbe year. t-i cans of Northumberland county, don t be caught napping next Tuesday. The last hope of the Copperheads is mai m lirans will be so confident of success that enough of them will stay away from the polls to lose the State. Tueyare w arrangements to get out all their totes un der tho Inspiration of the hope. They have had their agents for days past traveling quietly through the county to see every Democratic v.ter and make sure that he will tote. They expect to have out their full vote, and their calculation now is that enough Re publicans will stay at home to enable them to carry the county by an increased majority. This is' their last and only hope. The elec tions have demonstrated beyond a doubt tbat the majority is lurgoly against them ; and if the full vote be polled they will be overwhelmingly beaten. ' Unton men of Northumberland county, is there one of you who will be derelict in this final and vital contest! The interests of our country, of liberty and humanity, appeal to us in trumpet tones for our ballots on next Tuesday. Let no Republican be deaf or indifferent to the appeal. Ciil'EL. Our neighbor of the Independent keeps at the head of his editorial columns wood cuts intended to represent Seymour and Blair. The appearance of Blair is far from prepossessing, under nny circumstances, but the impression of the Independent makes him look worse than that much abused but favorito "nigger" of our other neighbor of the Northumberland County Democrat. One more fire along the whole line, Re publicans, and the day is yonrs. An over whelming majority for Grant insures peace for the country. Every Democratic success aud every Democratic prospect for success, encourages the rebels to violence. Since the New York Convention, the rebels have murdered Union men by the hundrcUt. Grant's election will stop that kind of thing, and tend to moke life secure in all parts of the cotiulry. TnE torchlight procession on Monday evening next promises to be a grand affair. To aid and encourage the proccssiou, citi zens, on streets through which they pass, should have a light in their front rooms, be low, with shutters open and window blinds UP- Wendell PniLirs, the great abolitionist, is opposed to Grant as bo was opposed to T.inr.nln. because these men condemned his extreme and absurd views on slavery. Dem ocratic papers who publish his slanders on Grant can have but little self respect or cor rect idea of piopriety. Democratic Fakmkrb, do ynu want your farms taxed nt the same rate of taxation as is now laid on whisky and articles of lux. ury ? If ou do, vote for Seymour aud Bluir. They are pledged to tax the farm of the well-to-do farmer, and the little house and even the cow and pig of the poor man, at the same rate tn the other articles we have named. Richardson, in his Life of Grant, says When Grant entered West Point, at the ago of seventeen, he was a piutup, fair-complex-inned beardless youth from the country, rustic in manner, and cureless iu dress. There was the usual disposition of the school-boy rucc, the world over, to impose upou the new comer, but his readiness to tuko a joke whb his best defence. The students of the first year are called "Plebcs." In forming squads to go to meals or roll call, they begin at the right and take their places toward the iutt in ttie order in which they are reported at the beginning of the term. In Grant's class was one Jack LitnUuy. His father was au old army colnuel, whose fel low officers and comrades had made a pet of Jack, already a tall, stout fellow, and something or a dandy. His place was on the left of Grant, whom he onu day crowded out. Grunt, thiuking it might be a mistake, and slow to take offence, said nothing till after the roll-call, when ho quietly told Lindsay not to do it again. The very next time, however, Lindsuy, to show his con tempt for the raw lad from the buck woods, repeated the indignity. To his infinite surprise, and tbe delight of their classmates, Grant instantly kneeked down his larger comrade, and administered to him that effectual dose which has taken the nonsense aua ill-manners out ot so many boyt a sound thrashing. Lindsay interfered with him no more ; and the other "Plebes" saw that, with all his good humor, "Uncle Sam" was not to be imposed upon. . ... - Official Vote? f lhe Cwucre-amicnnl IHntl-lt'lH.

Demonstrate all there to the Democrats, Republicans will not believe or accept the theory. But, "push the taxa tion," let Democrats have an opportunity to explain their platform aad to appreciate its practical beauties. Our telegrams from the South bring us to many distressing records of murders and outrages by the bands ol secret outlaws that it now seeking to re-establish the reign of terror in that section, that it has become painful to the heart of the patriot to read these daily reports. This- is no new feature in southern history, for tho veogeance now wreaked on Republicans was formerly the lot of every man opposed to slavery. Yigi laree committees and lynch law are familiar institutions in the cotton States. In the estimation of Democrats like Seymour, they are pardonable ebullitions of tout hem tem per. No northern man, white or black, hat ever yet enjoyed in these barbarous Statet the rights of fceedom of speech or of the press.

John Lathrop Motley, the eminent Ameri can hisroriao, and late Minister to Austria, recently .delivered an addrest in Boston. The subject was the "Four Great Questions before the People in the present Campaign." We have room" only for the following ex tract of this very able production : There have been important elections in this country during the brief three quarters of a century which comprehends the whole of our national life that turbulent, full throbbing, exultant national life, the like of which tbe world never knew before, and which has something appalling In its very strength. Party spirit is always rife, and in such vivid, excitable, disputations 'communities as ours are, and I trust always will be, it is the very soul of freedom. To those who reflect upon tbe means and ends of popular government, nothing teems more stupid than in grand generalities to deprecate purty spirit. Why, government by parties and through party machinery is the only possi ble method by which a free republic Cun ac complish the purpose of its existence. Popular representation, the election of men to speak each for a hundred thousand or more of their fellow-citizens at some common central point familiar us we are with it, so much so that it seems like one ol the ele mental lawn was entirely unknown to the republics, great and small, of antiquity or of the middle ages. That which makes the democratic republic possible and perfectly convenient on the vast scale of this country was never imagined before. The democratic force in older republics evaporated uselessly or exploded balel'ully, because no engine had been invented by which man becomes muster of the superhuman strength of men of the aggregated thought and will of greut multitudes. And a free government may ceBse to be free, even although all the forms and appli ances for energetic action are present, if the party spirit, tl.o potent expansive vapor which moves all things, is absent or insuf ficient. The modern kingdom of Italy has the freest constitutional form compatible with limited monarchy, a liberal and ex panded representative system, but with the bulk of the people there is a deficiency of the warm popular clement, the party spirit, the political steam. I bavo heard of repre sentative districts where there were fifteen hundred voters, and where not five thought of going to the polls during wlmt should have been nn exciting political canvass. How much do wc owe ? $2,500,000,000. How many of us are there ? I mppose some thing less lhau 40.0110.000. We owe on un average perhaps 63 a bead at this moment. When the debt is due, say twelve or fifteen years henrc, there will be at lenst 00,000,000 of us say about $40 apiece to pay, suppos ing the debt not to have disappeared alto gether by thut time, which it may easily be made to do. r mo dollars a year bend, unci we are paying that now, wonlil ex tinguish tho whole debt, interest and princi pal, before fifteen years are gone. If the foul word repudiation bad never been breath ed, our difficulties would be overalready.and the capitalists of tbe wor'.d wonld be glad to take our cecurltits ut as low a rate as the most favored nations enjoy. This is the richest country in the world. The accumulated capital of the British em pire may be one third larger, although h is probably that the results of the United States census of 1870 will make surprising revelations ; but the iinnuul product of the United States is now far greater than that of the British empire, while the untouched re- sources of this nution are of almost fabulous extent. It will be much within limits to assnme a yearly pro. tuct, nt this moment-, of $4,001),- 0011,000, gold. ltit tbftt which makes our financial strength not onty encouraging, but astounding, is the tremendous ratio at which our wealth and population increase. Arithmetic, statistics become poetical when they deal with the American futtiie. The head swims w hen the possibilities of this fortunate land are contemplated. If 1 dwell for a moment upon the enormous power and wealth of this couutry, it is not for the ignoble purpose of pandering to individual j or national glorillcu'.ion, but in order tlmt I we all mny take shame if we admit for an I instant our inability to pay our honest tlebts. On the most moderate calculation, our population doubles every twenty three years. Our wealth doubles at least every ten years. In the decade immediately pre ceding the civil war, the ascertained valac of private property in tbe country increased I ' . J . .'. . more than 123 percent.; ( nub Ing, there- fore, iu less than eiht years. At a moderate estimate, tho population, fourteen years ' hence, will be Gu,00t).0m, and the valuation of property, after mukins allowance for the cost andcoiiseri'.iences of the war throughout i.-.. i,..t , .r ii:i I... fieri wm noil (ion Ti... ,i..i.f ;r"n'f .... i,.,i ,',i.. u', i'.r,,,,l that time, will then amount to nbotit four per cent, of the accumulated capital of the nation. Wbut individual in this country wishes to day to repudiate his personal debts, maturing twelve and fifteen years hence, be cause they are likely to amount to a twenty fifth part of liis assets ? Why, the State of Massachusetts created in the year 180(1, the first year after the war, five hundred and seventeen iill:oii of dol lars, according to the interetrng and admi rable uddress of his Excellency Governor Bullock. During the preceding ten yeBrs the increase of production was seventy twrt . ,.l-...v. .1.. i.. : ..t per cent., although the yearly inereiwe of population was but three per cent., mnrli below the national average. Were tbe whole coantrv as industrious, tho annual product would'at this moment be $10,000,000,000, instead of $4,000,00r),000, according to the moderate basis which we have tuken. After an elaborate sketch of Grunt's mili tary carter, Mr. Motley concludes as follows: Tlure are very few persons iu this Union, I suppose, who have not read General Grant's letter, in which be charges bis lather to de stroy, or at least to t.buv to no one ; and I do not en-vey the man who is uot touched by ita Dimple grandeur ; "Were it not for the natnral desire of proving myself equal to anything expected of me, 1 would gladly accept a less responsi ble position. 1 will do my purl towards putticg down the rebellion in the shortest possible time, without expecting or desiring any other recognition than a quiet approval ol my course.

The IntelUfenar (Republican) of this morning says: We have newt enough tbis morning to (how that while the large Republican ma jorities of two years ago will be reduced, the Stute is still largely and securely Republican. A careful summary of what we now know shows the lollowinjr general facts, as we think Gen. Duvul, the liepublican candidate for Congress in the First district, is elected by not less than 000 majority. It may be more. Mr. M'Grcw, tho liepublican candi date for Congress in the Second district, is elected by a mnjority which will not be less than Z.UOU, and is more likely to oe 2.500. Gen.Witcher, the Republican nominee iu the r 1 inril district, Is probubly elected by a small iiH)oriiy. The reports from fifteen counties, which in icon, cast nan me vote or Hie State, shows ubout 1,000 Democratic train over the vote of 13Gi and about au equal Democratic toss Irom the vote til last lull. If the ratio of Republican losseB iu the rest of the State should be the sumo, it would leave the Re j publican majority in the State something near 4,500. 1 be Republican losses in the omlying counties may ne greater m proportion to the vote cast than they have been in the north ern part of the State, and can hardlv be less. Our estimate, with present information, is that the Kepublicati majority in t lie State will be found to come out between 3,000 and 4,300, which will be a slight general gain on the Republican majorities of last fall. And when lull returns are received we think it will be I'onnd tbis reaction iu majority is not due to changes of Republicans to Democrats, but to an increased Democratic registration. Wc shall not be surprised to learn that the ' entire vote cast is over 4.1,000, perhaps nearer i 50,(i(l(, As far us reported we have gained j a member of the House of Delegates' (Mr. ! Scholield, of Wirt county), an I we do not ! hear of one lost. The Panhandle counties have ul! done better than they did Ih-t full !

The school houses are not much damaged, and the schools- will open as uaiial on M'-;i nay next. The United Slutes Marine llos pital is condemed by the proper authorities, and will be demolished. The patients are ut present encamped on the grounds adjoin ing the hospitul. No proper accommoda tions are as yet provided for tli-ni. The Cnstom House ia wrecked to such an I extent thut probably it will not be occupied 1 ttgaiii, I he otlicials have removed tempo or the locution. Some of the ttrueturet are beiug taken down, and otbera repuired. The vicinity of the wrecked buildings it a busy scene. The shock that occurred at 2.15 this morning caused additional damage to the injured buildings. Some cbimoeyt ot the different manufactories which suffered con siderably by the first shock w ill now have to be demolished and lebuilt. No definite estimate of the damage, to propei tv can be made until a proper survey of the entire city it made. Bonre pel sous estimate the Inst at $:H)0,000, and otheit at high at $2,000,000. The latter figure it probably nearest the true loss. A number of buildings w ill have to be. torn don, re constructed, or ex penal 1 repairs made. Admiral Farragut it about condng boms.

Seymour bat to accomplish bit ftat in an equal period. Grant did bit work by fighting. Seymour it to do bit by talking. Tbe labor of one wat a profit even to those whom b defeated, and a blessing to Bey mour himself. But Beymour' labor, If suc cessful, would injur those whose aid he gained no less than those who opposed him, except at tbe number of the On might be less than those of the other. Tbe New York riott have not reflected such credit on the Governor of New York that the country will Work very bard to help the man under whose government they occurred, even in the small purpose of laving hit party. Vote Earlt. We again call upon all Republicani to vote early, next Tuesday. Early voting addt materially to the strength of the party. "Swinging AnoonD the Circle." Mr. Seymour, in imitation of Andy Johnson, has started on an election tour for tbe pur pose of arresting t lie tide of popular opin ion that it (weeping him Into defeat and oblivion. Hit speeches, however, are uot calculated to command for him the suffrages or intelligent voters, tie begs for votes on the grouud that even if elected the Republi can VongreSt will rtstrnin him jroin doing harm to the country thus admitting that there is danger in Democratic success, as there most unquestionably is. Tbe people want a man in the Presidents! Chair whom it will not be necessary to watch to keep from bad work. They have had enough of Johnson to make them wise in that respect The country needs harmony and co-opera turn between the different branches ot government, rather than hostility and con tinual endeavor to circumvent each other. Let us have Grant and Peace. Sey.mocr's speech in Chicago attempts to ridicule Mr. Colfax for referring to the Kan sas troubles, l'ray let ut ask what was Seymour's position in that exciting crisis f Did be stand by the cause cf freedom, or did he turn a neat ear to the groans ol the si: I ferine people of Kansas! These questions answer themselves. The man bad flo more statesmanship about him in that event thiir. Buchanan and Pierce had. He was on the wrong side clear through, PnopnETic. Frank Blair prophesied that Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana would go Democratic in the October election. Wal lace can now lit; ore up the result of the "eood ficht" and inform the prophet how nearly his predictions were verified. General Curtb, who fought bravely in the late war Tor the Union, now residing in Ogdensburgb, New York, and always a con servative, has come out in a letter, strongly in favor of Grant and Colfax, and encoor.iz ing his old companions in-urnit to vote the wny they shot.
