H AVE WE A DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL
COMMITTEE?
This question is prompted by the fact
that, for the last three years, we have
not seen or heard of anything emana
ting from any such institution as that
concerning whose existence the above
inquiry is made. During those weary i
years, the Democratic party has fought
its battles through its State organiza
tions, without a word of advice, or
cheer, from its National head. It has j
fought gallantly, nobly, and invinci
bly ; but what army ever won a victory
whose corps or division commanders
were not directed by a chief to whom
they were all subordinate and owed
obedience? It is because the Demo-!
cratic masses have not been concentra
ted upon the vulnerable points in the
line of the enemy's works, that we
have failed to succeed. Thus far we
have only skirmished with the pickets
of the Radical forces, or, at best, have
but made a reconnoissance in force.
Shall thischild's play continue? Shall
we fritter away our strength by meet
ing our opponents upon side issues and
local questions, only to permit them to
use the power they retain to try their
noxious and detestable governmental
experiments? God forbid! Neverthe
less, we are in a fair way to repeat the
folly which every election teaches us
to repeat. Our organization is hold to
gether by the clear and palpable cor
rectness of the principles which we pro
fess, and, therefore, is deathless and
indestructible; but, whilst its members
cling to it even unto martyrdom, like
the Christian Tiyari we are surrounded
by political Mussulmans who believe it
their duty to exterminate us and who
scruple at nothing to effect their pur
pose. To accomplish our destruction
they have' Africanized one half of the
Republic, disfranchised seven hundred
thousand white men, and buried the
Constitution amid the ruins of the for
mer Union. What are we doing to re
gain that which has thus lieen lost?
Whilst pamphlet after pamphlet is
scattered among the people, by the
Radical leagues and committees, whilst
speaker after speaker is sent out by the
"Republican National Committee,"
whilst millions upon millions of dollars
are raised by the financial managers of
the Radical party, what is our Nation
al Committee doing? Sleeping a Rip
Van Winkle sleep unbroken even by
the thunderous crash of the most sweep
ing political revolution that ever de
stroyed a governmental fabric! Sleep
ing, whilst the rank and file are strug
gling with the enemy! Sleeping, whilst
our brethren are being murdered in
Tennessee and enslaved in ten States
of the Union! Sleeping, whilst thous
ands upon thousands of white men in
every Northern State, are being robbed
of the privileges of citizenship! Sleep
ing, whilst Fanaticism, Anarchy and
Tyranny hold riotous carnival through
out the land! Oh! shame, that the
grand army of the Democracy is thus
officered! Shame, that the men who,
by their numbers, intelligence and
wealth, possessthe power to resto ethe
Republic, are defeated in their noble
purpose, by the apathy, or inefficiency,
of those appointed to lead them! Oh !
ye sluggards, how long will you sleep ?
Victory is within our grasp; will you
organize for the charge which must re
sult in the capture of the enemy's cita
del ? Will you lead us, or must we
discard you and give your swords to
men who will not sleep? Wake up,
August Belmont! Finish your nap
right now, for we "propose to move
upon the enemy's works immediate
ly !"
THE Radical papers are already cir
culating a number of falsehoods in re
gard to the proceedings of the late Dem
ocratic State Convention. Oneof these
is, that a resolution endorsing Gen.
Sheridan's course as satrap of Louisi
ana, was declared out of order. We
were present during the entire pro
ceedings of the Convention, and know
that no such resolution was oflered.
Sheridan's name was not mentioned, at
any time, during the sessions of the
Convention, by any member of that
body. The Radical newspapers must
be hard up for objections to the course
of the Convention, when such misera
ble lies as that are invented by them.
KLIiKO SUFFRAGE VS. THE TARIFF.
The Africans of the South have been
enfranchised by Congress, and thus the
voting population of eleven Southern
States (including Tennessee) has been
doubled. Heretofore, but three-fifths
of the African population of those States
were counted in the apportionment of
memljers of Congress. Hereafter all
of that population will be counted in
making such apportionment. An im
portant result of this change, will ben
large increase of the number of members
of Congress to be elected bg those States.
Under the next apportionment the
South, owing to the enfranchisement of
the Africans, will have a much larger
representation in Congress than it had
during the palmiest days of the institu
tion of slavery. Now, the Southern
people are, it is well known, unani
mously opposed to all protective tariffs,
and no matter whether their represen
tatives in Congress be white, or black,
whether elected by the ballots of the
European, or the African, those repre
sentatives will always be found arrayed
in opposition to high protective duties.
A great portion of the West, is also
hostile to a tariff on iron and coal,
whilst New England has a warm side
for cheap fuel, and in the last Congress
clearly evinced her decided partiality
for Nova Scotia. Of course, the votes
of the Southern States, of the West and
of New England, will be combined in
favor of a reduction of the duties on
coal and iron, and the increased repre
sentation of the South will enable such
a combination to wield a majority of
the votes in Congress. Thus has the
Radical Congress hung a millstone a
bout the neck of Pennsylvania. Fare
well to that "protection to home indus
try," of which we have heard so much !
Farewell to the furnaces and rolling
mills of Pennsylvania! Negro Suffrage
in the South will be the end of them,
just as soon as it can make itself felt
in the halls of Congress. The Radical
party invites the iron and coal men of
Pennsylvania to their own funeral. It
asks them to endorse the Reconstruc
tion Acts which doom their interests
to destruction. It bids them sign their
own death-warrant, by approving a
policy which will give Free Trade an
accession of at least twenty-five rotes in
Congress. It remains to be seen wheth
er party ties are strong enough to make
people commit suicide.
HON. GEORGE SlIARSWOOI).
The nomination of Justice Shars- j
wood for the office of Supreme Judge, j
proves very popular, not only among
Democrats, but also among "Republi
cans." The Pittsburg Gazette , Phila
delphia Bulletin, Erie Dispatch , and
other Radical papers speak of it as the
very best that could have been made.
The fact is, the Radicals have 110 man
who, as a jurist, will not suffer in com-1
parison with Judge Sharswood. Poli
tics aside, they arc compelled to admit,
that they cannot nominate any one so
eminently fit to wear the judicial er
mine as the nominee of the Democracy.
We shall publish some of thecommen
dutions of Judge Sharswood printed by
the Radical papers, as soon as we can
find room.
PRAISE FROM THE ENEMY.
80 excellent are the nominations made
by the late Democratic County Conven
tion that the Bedford Inquirer , of last
week, is constrained to pay them the
following elaborate compliment:
"The Copperhead County Convention
assemDled in this placeoll last Tuesday
and put in nomination a ticket to be
supported by them at the coming elec
tion. The nominees are for District
Attorney, E. F. Kerr, of Bedford;
Treasurer, Isaac Mengel, of Bedford;
County Commissioner, Peter M. Bar
ton, of East Providence; Poor Director,
Join. I. Noble, of South Woodbery, and
Auditor, Samuel Whip, of Cumberland
Valley, is about the best ticket
that has been put in nomination by
that party for some years. All the men
are sound practical men and will make
good and reliable officers. It is evident
that thecountry foroncegot the advan
tage of the town, and the leaders here
were foiled in their efforts to secure the
usual creatures who are entitely sub
servient to them. We claim some cred
it for this deviation from the usual
course of nominating men without bus
iness qualideations for the offices of
Commissioner, Poor Director and Aud
itor. It will he a credit to the candi
dates put in nomination by the Repub
lican party to defeat or be defeated by
such men."
THE Bedford Inquirer takes to LONG
STREET, the Disunion Rebel General,
as naturally as fleas to a dog. This is
not to be wondered at, inasmuch as
Longstreet is a Southern Secessionist,
whilst the editors of the Inquirer, are
Northern Disunionists. Longstreet
wanted to take the Southern States out
of the Union, and failed because the
Federal Army met him at Round Top,
near Gettysburg. The editors of the
Inquirer declare those States are out of
the Union (in spite of Round Top) and
that they shall stay out, or come in
black end foremost. Is it any wonder
that the Disunion Rebel General Long
street likes the party that hies made
Disunion a fact, or that the Disunion
editors of the Inquirer admire Long
street who tried, but failed, to accom
plish the same thing?
THE .STATE CAPITA!. PEFMIERED !
Astonishing Developments!
We refer the reader to the accounts
of the robbery of the State Capitol, by
officials of the late Legislature, which
we print elsewhere. Tons of books and
documents and even U. S. Mail bags
have been stolen and converted to their
own use, by these Radical thieves.
Talk about "reform" and "honesty,"
in a party that puts and keeps such rob
bers in office"! As well might Lucifer
be trusted to reform the infernal pit!
WE clip the following from the Bed
ford Inquirer of June 21st:
AT a Republican meeting in Trenton,
N. J., last week. Ware, a Philadel
phia negro, pithily said: "Radicalism
is this: if you don't give it what it asks,
it will take more."
As the Inquirer evidently endorses
the definition, we agree with it for
once, but, will not the definition an
swer equally well for highway robbery?
THE President has gone to Rostoh,
upon an invitation of the authorites of
that city. He was enthusiastically re
ceived along the route, except in Phila
delphia. That city is bound to commit
hari kari.
The Copperhead Convention at Har
risburg dodged the Free Railroad ques
tion.—Radical Paper.
The Radical Legislature didn't
"dodge" that question ; they defeated
the proposed Free Railroad Law.
SHORTS—POLITICAL AM) PERSONAL.
HON. L. D. CAMPBELL has resigned
his position as Minister to Mexico and
returned to the United States. This
second attempt to introduce the camel
into Mexico has proved as unsuccessful
as the first.
PENNSY f.vAXi A is to go for the Dem
ocrats at the next election. So said
Thaddeus Stevens, the "great Com
moner," when he was mad over Cam
eron's success.
THAI). STEVENS talks about a "mild
confiscation." Said an Irishman, hold
ing his hand before the muzzle ofagun
about to be fired, "pull it off aisy."
THE first line of a Radical song be
gins thus: "We'll hang Horace Gree-
Iy on that sour apple tree, because he
helped to set Jeff. Davis free."
THE .South is offered admission to
Congress if it will send members wil
ling to brush Sumner's shoes. That
is the amount of the reconstruction bill.
FORNEY says, Thad. Stevens is im
proving, and the Boston Post says
there is great room for it.
THE Earl of Brownlow died lately
in England. The infamy attached of
late years to the name, struck in and
killed him.
THE Philadelphia Press is out in fa
vor of the election of Africans to Con
gress. Forney wants a boot-black.
POTT of the Fulton Republican , says,
he has been •'■stirred by the announce
ment"—that Jeff. Davis is "out on
bail."
R. B. HAYES has been nominated
for Governor, by the Radical Conven
tion of < )hio. Owing to Negro Suffrage
and White Disfranchisement being the
issues in Ohio, the political atmosphere
in that State, doesn't look so very
Hayes-y.
THE Democracy of Belleville, 111.,
routed the Radicals badly, the other
day. They polled a majority of 150—a
gain of 700 since last fall. So it goes
everywhere.
JOHN NEAT, has written to the Port
land Press a letter opposing the prohibi
tory liquor law. He says its effects in
Maine have been demoralizing; and it
has increased the sale of liquor clan
destinely.
THEODORE TILTON, a teacher of
"grand moral ideas," advocates the
licensing of houses of prostitution.
"Do something," said Artemus, "do
something. If you can't get to be
clerk to a manure wagon, why write
for the Ledger /" "Local-on-the-(blow)
fly" follows this advice as nearly as he
can, by scribbling for the Bedford In
quirer.
SENATOR JAMES GUTHRIE, of Ken
tucky, who has been ill a long time,
is recovering.
HON. ISAAC NEWTON, Commissioner
of Agriculture at Washington, died on
the 19th inst., of Typhoid Fever.—
Mr. Newton was a Philadelphian.
COEFAX is working "Across the Con
tinent and towards the Presidency" in
the interior of Illinois. —So says the
World.
AN election was recently held in
the second grand division of Illinois, for
Judge, which resulted in the election
of a Democrat by a majority of 1,230
In November, last year, the Radicals
carried the same district by a majority
of 3,044. Thus it will be seen that the
reaction in Connecticut has extended to
the West. A change as decided in
other Stales will give Democratic ma
jorities in nearly all the States.
THE Chicago Times suggests that the
best way to get the foul water out of
Chicago River, is to engage Horace
Greely to bail it out!
THE Democratic State Convention of
California, has nominated H. 11. Haight
for Governor, William Holden for Lieu
tenant Governor, 11. L. Nicholas for
Secretary of State, Robert Watson for
Comptroller, Antonia F. Coronell for
Treasurer and John W. Dost for Sur-.
veyor General.
GALENA, Ills., the home of Gen.
Grant, has just elected the Democratic
ticket by 230 majority. The Third
Ward went Democratic for the first
time in the history of the city.

Arrest of Department Messengers—They
are With Stcaliiis Hooks and
Papers—Three Watfon l.oads of the
Property Iteeovered.
Special Dispatch to the Philadelphia Inquirer.
11 AURISUU itti, June 21.—Quite a sen
sation was created here this morning |
by the unexpected arrest of a number i
of messengers and other subordinate
attaches of the various State Depart
ments. It seems that for some time
past, several heads of departments, in
cluding the State Librarian, had missed
a number of valuable books, and other
documents belonging to the State.—
The attention of the Chief of Police was
called to the matter, and having reason
to suspect a man named Aaron Rapp,
doing business on South street, Mr.
Campbell, the Chief of Police, procured
a search warrant and visited Rapp's
premises this morning, where he found
a number of the missing articles stowed
away. Rapp became terribly alarmed
and implicated some seven or eight
messengers and other employees at the
Capitol Building, who were at once
arrested. The Storekeeper was held in
one thousand dollars bail, to answer at
court. Two of the messengers were
held in eight hundred dollars hail; the
balance will have a hearing to-morrow
morning. Three wagon loads of State
property were brought from Rapp's
store and piled up in the Mayor's
office. Among the captured property
are some two hundred copies of the
Adjutant-General's recent Report, of
over twelve hundred pages.
From all these Reports the cloth
binding had been torn and the books
sold as waste paper. There were also
two hundred copies of the United States
Statutes at Large, passed at the last
session of Congress, inclosed in pack
ages, addressed to the Governor. The-e
were sold for waste paper, unopened.
Large quantities of recent numbers of
the legislative Record , together with
the index, were also captured, together
with seven United States mail hags,
belonging to the Post Office, which had
been sent up to the Capitol for docu
ments and stamped envelopes furnished
the heads of Department. It is sup
posed that this species of imposition
upon the State has been carried on for
several years, and it has only now been
discovered by reason of the boldness of
the recent operations.
LATER.
HARRISBUKG, June 23.— Chief of Po
lice Campbell has just returned from
Carlisle, and reports that he found at a
paper null, near that place, nearly a
ton of the books and documents stolen
from the Capitol, including about eight
hundred 'ind fifty volumes of the Adju
tant General's last report. A number
of U. S. Mail bags were recovered.
Four of the parties arrested upon the
charge of stealing the property, have
been bound over to appear at August
sessions. Great excitement and indig
nation exist here in regard to the mat
ter.

A YOUNG LADY returning to her
country home, after a sojourn of a few months in
the city, was hardly recognized by her friends.
In place of a coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had
a soft ruby complexion of almost marble smooth
ness, and instead of twenty three she really ap
peared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause
of so great a change, she plainly told them
that she used the CIRCASSIAN BALM, an 3 con
sidered it an invaluable acquisition to any Lady s
toilet. By its use any Lady or Gentleman can im
prove their personal appearance an hundred fold.
It is simple in its combination, as Nature herself
is simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in draw
ing impurities from, also healing, cleansing and
beautifying the skin and complexion. By its di
rect action on the cuticle it draws from it all its
impurities, kindly healing the same, and leaving
the surface as Nature intended it should be, clear,
soft, smooth and beautiful. Price $l, sent by Mail

DR. SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP.
This great medicino cured Dr. J. 11. Bchenck, the
proprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, when it
had assumed its most formidable aspect, and when
speedy death appeared to be inevitable. His phy
sicians pronounced his case incurable, when lie
commenced the ise of this simple but powerful
remedy. Ilis health was restored in a very short
time, and no return of the disease has been appro
hended. for all the symptoms quickly disappeared,
and his present weight is more than two hundred
pounds.
Since his recovery, he has devoted his attention
exclusively to the cure of Consumption, and the
diseases which are usually complicated with it,
and the cures effected by his medicines have been
very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr. Schenck
makes professional visits to several of the larger
cities weekly, where he has a large concourse of
patients, and it is truly astonishing to see poor
consumptives that have to be lifted out of their
carriages, and in a few months healthy, robust
persons. Dr. Schenck's PULMONIC SVRUP, SKA
WELD TONIC, and MANDRAKE PILLS, are generally
all required in curing Consumption. Full direc
tions accompany each, so that any one can take
them without seeing Dr. ScheDck. but when it is
convenient it is best to see him. He gives advice
free, but for a thorough examination with his Re
spirometer his fee is three dollars.
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two
likenesses of the Doctor, one when in the last stage
of consumption, and the other as he now is, in per
fect health, arc on the Government stomp
Sold by all druggists and dealers; price 50
per bottle, or $7 50 the half dozen. All letters for
advice should be addressed to Dr. Schenck's prin
