DEMOCRATS OF BEDFORD COINTY ! |
You have done your duly nobly. Against j
the most desperate odds, in spite of all the bri
bery and corruption, the trickery and chicane
ry of your unscrupulous foe, you have saved
Bedford county once more from falling into (he ,
the hands of the Abolitionists. 1 hough the
result of the election is not in many respects as j
we hoped it might be, yet you have much to ,
rejoice over. While other counties prove re-!
creant, you have stood firm. NY hile other (lis- i
tricts darken beneath the cloud of the''irrepres
sible conflict," yours remains a green spot in •
the desert of abohtionized Pennsylvania.— I
Shall we not go to work, then, and increase our
majority at the comi'ig election ? YY e can do
it. Our full vote was not polled at the recent
election, and if it is brought out we can at least
double Foster's majority. Let no Democrat be
discouraged. t\ e have future battles to fight.
We have the Democratic organization to pre
serve. Rally, then : Rally, once more, fel
low Demorrats ! Rally like men and freemen
and give the enemv one more broadside in glo- i
nous old Bedford, on the 6th of November j
nest !
GLO RIO IS DISTRICTS!
Our friends did wonders in some of the dis
tricts in this county on Tuesday last. Cum- j
herlaud Valley, glorious "Little Berks,'! gives a
majority of Q f |. being an increase of 22 over ;
Buchanan's majority, and of over Wnght's last
vear. Southampton gives 1*27, a gain of 57
over last year. Juniata gives KM), a gain of j
50 over la=t year : Bedford boiough 26, a gain !
of 8, and Bedford township, I 1 1, a gain of 21.
Napier, Schellsburg, and Londonderry, likewise
give us considerable gains. We say all honor
to the lion-hearted Democrats of these districts.
They have done their duty nohlv. In the re
mainder ol the county, we also have true men
who did all they could to stem the tide ol Ao
oliti mism, but were overwhelmed by the num
bers of their opponents and the treachery of pro
fessed Democrats. The Democratic party will
cherish in grateful remembrance, tire services of
these true and gali?ipt men, but a day of relri-
button, a dark and ignominious day for fhe |
traitors that conspired against us, lies not lar dis- j
tant in the future.
PICK VOI R FLINTS AM) FIRE AGAIN. '
All is not lost that is in danger. Let the De- j
mocracv stand firm. Like the Spartans at j
Thermopylae the Democrats of Bedford county, i
have thrown themselves into the pass by which !
the Black Republican horde would make their
ra - d upon the South. Courage 1 Courage,
meo ! We are a Spartan band, unconquerable, j
invincible, and with our feet firmly planted up
on fhe rock ol the Constitution, we win ttand
lhere, fixed and immovable, and go down, if we
must, with our Hag fivtng, to rise again to a day
of triumph and glory in the future.taflMt *

The Republicans of Massachusetts, at t!ipir'<
State Convention last week, nominated for Gov-j '
ernor John A. Andrew, who the "Boston papersj '<
assure us is an abolitionist of the Garrison and! I
Wendell Phillips stamp. This Mr. Andrew,!
the Republican candidate for Governor—last '
fall presided at an "Old John Brown sympathi-1 I
zing meeting in Boston," and declared that t
"John Brown was right!" We ask the editor s
of the Providence Journal, and the conserva- '
live men of Rhode Island whether they think I
that "John Brown was Right ?" Was lie i
"right" in breaking into the arsenal at Harper'! f
Ferry ? Was he ''right" in attempting to ire I
cite a servile insurrection in Virginia? Wai
he "right" in arming tbe negroes .with fifteen
hundred pikes, which he had procured with v
funds furnished by tbe Massachusetts abolition- c
ists ? Was he "right" in murdering five per- t
sons at Harper's Ferry, one of them the Mayor o
ot the city, and in his endeavors to raise aod I
equip a black army of infuriated negroes to (
massacre the white citizens—our brethren of I
the South ? Is this tbe kindof Union which c
the Republicans wish to establish between the e
North and the South 7 It is not the Union c
which our fatheis made. It is not the Union'!
which our Federal Constitution recognizes.— s
It is not the Union which can iong hold togeth- c
er these confederated States. But Seward's '■
'irrepressible conflict," tarried on bv servile f
insurrection—bv means of pikes and revoi- t

The people of Massachusetts are now called o
upon to sanction murder and treason committed b
in a slave State by voting for the avowed John d
Brown advocate and sympathizer for Governor t
of that onre-honored Commonwealth! Willi!
they do it ? It they do it, thev should be made 1
to do it knowingly and deliberately; for tfie'e
question should be incessantly ning in thecals '
of every voter in the State. ''Are yon willing

Jhnulgamotion with Negroes —.7 Republican
Principle The Principle Reduced to Pnic- !
tice.
The Republican torch-procesMon last night j
was a brilliant affair. Among the torch-bear- j
ers were the white Wide Awakes ol ward 11,
Commander, C. (). Rogers, numbering 124, and j
the colored Wide Awakes af ward ti, Comman
der Smith, numbering 100. The two bodies
marched to Chelsea to ratify the Republican
nominations.
This is consistent with the professions of the i
; party ; and very inconsistent with the course of
, Mr. Abraham Lincoln, who acquiesces in a
; law vvfiich would exclude everv oneot the co
lored \\ ide Awakes Irom the witness-box in Ill
inois, if a white Wide Awake were a party.
We learn that there was some wincing a
i mong the less advanced Republicans, until re
i minded by Mr. Slack that the four hundred co
j lored votes which were good for Mr. Burliri
[ game, might be perilled by any s\ mptctus of!
| mutiny in the ranks of the white and colored
i VVide-Avvake army.
The dignity of history does not forbid us to j
record that the colored Wide-A wakes looked
| quite as 'veil as their while brethren, and that ,
they bore themselves through our streids quite*
jas well. Indeed, the African race have ape
, cuiiar taste for parade, ceremonial processions,
and fuss-aiid-feathers generally, in which it is J
I highly proper they should he encouraged.
Hon. J. A. Andrew, the Republican canni
! dote for Governor, honored theni by taking his
j [dace in the line, just in their rear, ihe Mayor
j of the city and other "white folks" following, j

[GF"The "People's party" of Pennsylvania c
was originally a combination between Repub.t- a
cans and members of the Opposition not Repub
licans, mainly for State purposes. Tfie leaders c
of this organization sent delegates to the Repub- f
lican Convention at Chicago, and are now sup- J
porting the Republican candidate for President. *
That portion of the party who are not Republi- s
cans refuse to be transferred to Lincoln, or to ]
endorse the sectional and revolutionary doctrine
of Seward, Lovejoy, Gic'dings and Sumner.
They will not submit to being dragged into the
support of Republicans against their will, and '
consequently they support John Bell for Presi- !
dent ; whereupon the Republican press frets and r
fumes, ai d falls to cursing these men because i
they will not contubute to the success of a par- t
ty that they abhor. It strikes us that the cause c
ot complaint is the other way. The Bell men i
have much greater reason to denounce the Ka- r
ders of the "People's party" fur selling out to
the Republicans, than the Republicans have to t
denounce them lor remaining true to their po- i
litic.al convictions, notwithstanding the treach- \

Tfie German or- Irishman, who can r-arl tins

; "In the heart of the foreigner heats not one
j single noble impulst—not one single throb ot
