"Light, more light!" is the start
ling cry of the honest people groping
in thedarkness of Radicalism. "Light,
more light!" shouts the groaning tax
payer, bending under the load which
a Radical Congress has heaped upon
him. "Light, more light!" is the
pleading cry that comes to us from
those who earnestly seek a remedy for
the disease that is tugging at the vi
tals of the nation. Look and ye shall
see! Read and ye shall know! The
REDFORR GAZETTE, for the Presi
dential Campaign, will be a complete
compendium of political news, speeches,
documents and every thing that j>er
tains to a political canvass in the col
umns of a weekly newspaper. It will
he published from the first day of June
until the seventh of November, next,
at the following low terms, cash in ad

Not only should every Democrat
have his county newspaper, duringthe
coming campaign, but lie should like
wise make it a point to furnish his Re
publican neighbor a copy. This is
the plan upon which our opponents j
have acted for years, and it is about
time that Democrats do something ol
the same sort. NOW, GO To WORK i
and pat your Democratic newspaper into |
the hand* of every R> pub!iran who trill
■read. If you will do this you will
accomplish more good in six months j
than you will by any other means in |
six years. Democratic politicians, j
throughout the county, are enabled, by |
the above low terms, to circulate Dem-1
ocratic newspapers at a very small
co 3 t. We appeal to them to see to get
ting up clubs, and to see to it in time.
Xow is the time to sow the seed. Af
ter a little while the heat of passion
and prejudice will beam upon the pub
lie mind in all its in ten.-e fierceness, j
and then seed-time will have passed.
Friends, let us hoar from you !
"TAKISO THE O.IT1I."
No one has yet forgotten sarcastic
witticisms of Artemas Ward, Orphe
as C. Kerr, and other humorists of the
war, or the facility with which all
sorts of test oaths were administered to
captured rebels and the -flippant con
tempt with which they were after
wards violated. The easy nonchal
ance with which such Senators as Chan
dler, Cat tell, and Ben Wade sauntered
up to the Chief Justice and took a sol
emn oath to decide impartially might
form companion pictures to those of
Artemas Ward, did not a feeling of
horror take the place of am used indiffer
ence, in contemplating the fearful con
sequences of this Senatorial perjury.
There is nothing which so clearly
marks the depravity ol'an age or a na
tion as the contempt in which is held
the sanctity of au oath. Since the ac
cession of the Radicals to power, and
their thousands of oaths lor inspectors,
guagcrs, assessors, detectives; since
the perjuries of Baker, Conover, and
hosts of dilators, the virus starting in
the lowest strata of the party has ascen
ded through all grades of official life,
until it has reached at last the highest
seats in the Senate.
To the Democratic party alone the
people can look for a restoration ol the
government to the pure condition of
the past. The Democratic party is the
party of law, order and religion ; and
its career has been illustrated by the
best instances of purity and probity in
official life. The reign of Radicalism
has produced lawlessness, violence, an
archy, military despotism, the silence
of the tribunes, decay in public morals,
and unbounded profligacy in political
life.
THE IMPEACHMENT FARCE.
At last the Impeachment trial is at
an end. The evidence and the speech
es are before the Senate. As to the
former, it shows nothing concerning
the President, except that he desired
to place in his cabinet an officer with
whom he could have confidential re
lations, in the room of one who had
insulted and defied him, that he in
quired of General Emory what dispo
sition had been made of the troops
around Washington, and that he made
a couple of speeches, in reply to calls
from his fellow citizens, which speech
es were not very complimentary of
tlie Rump Congress. This is the whole
case made out by the impoachers
against the President. Only this and
nothing more. Is there anything in
it which makes Mr. Johnson "worthy
of death or bonds?" . lie people will
say NO! even though perjured parti
zan Senators should dare to say Yes.
If Andrew Johnson is guilty of "high
' crimes and misdemeanors," because
he attempted to remove an odious cab
inet officer, or because he asked Gen.
! Emory what disposition had been
inadeof.the troops about
or because he made a political speech
in which he sharply criticised Congress,
then John Adams was guilty of the
same "crimes and misdemeanors"
when he removed Mr. Pickering, then
James Buchanan was similarly guilty
when he removed the rebel Floyd and
appointed the loyal Holt, then the
men who condemn Andrew Johnson
for merely exercising his constitutional
rights, as the occupant of the Execu
tive office, had better draw the bones
of Andrew Jackson from the grave
and hang them upon a gibbet, because
he, as President of the United States,
seized the deposits in the United States
Bank in defiance of Congress as well
of the decree of the Supreme Court.
They had better, too, go toSpringfield,
and like ghouls, as they are, dig up
the dust of Lincoln, in revenge upon
him for his repeated and undisputed
usurpationsof power. The case against
the President is too bald and bare, too
flimsy and transparent, too contempt
ible and ridiculous, to compare it with
anything of a similar character in all
the annals of State trials. Ilis convic
tion upon such evidence, will inevita- j
bly return to plague those who con-j
demo him,and will sink into certain j
perdition the par y that attempts to j
support it.—As to the speeches, Butler's
was nothing but blackguardism, Bout
wuH'i h3u*ii>r, suevens' rant and Bing
ham's denunciation. <>u the other
hand, it must be acknowledged, even
by the bitterest of theimpeaehers, that
the .-needle.- of Groesbeck, Evarts and
Stanbery, are masterpieces of logic and
legal learning. Thus stands Impeach
ment. With neither evidence, nor
argument, on thesideof the President's
ami-crs; with the Constitution and
the Right, with Law and Logic,on the
side of the President; how can convic
tion and removal receive the endorse
ment of the moral sentiment of the
people? It is impossible! Impeach
ment and iinpeachers will lie consigned
to outer darkness, where there shall be
"weeping and wailing and gnashing
of teeth!"
Tn K bill for the admission of Afn- j
can teed Arkansas passed tlic^llouse, on
last Saturday, by an almost strict par
ty vote. Members o: both sides ad
mitted that they had never read the
so-called constitution of that State, and
the Democrats protested earnestly a
gainst hurrying it through, but Tlmd.
Stevens, the master rider of the House
of Representatives, with whip and spur
drove the clowns of the radical ring
into the measure ; the bill was passed
and sent to the Senate for its action.
This is but the beginning of the end.
This is to be the fate of all the South
ern States. All the States to be recon
structed, whether their constitutions
were adopted by the requisite number
of votes, or whether the people saw tit
to reject the bogus amalgamation con
stitutions made to order by a Radical
Congress, are to be "put through" ac
cording to this latest Washington
style. The reason for this is apparent.
The Radicals are desirous to have Uni
ted States Senators from those States
and thus perpetuate their power in the
Senate. They are afraid of public
opinion, as expressed at the polls,and
know that their doom is fixed, when,
at the coming elections, the people
wiil be called upon to choose their
representatives in the House. They
will go any length, therefore, to secure
more power in the Senate, which they
expect to hold for some years to come
and thus prevent the reieal of the odi
ous laws which they have enacted. But
they will be frustrated in their plans.
The pent up wrath of a liberty and
justice loving people will ere long
break forth and drive the whole gang
of traitors from the iiigh places which
they have beslimed with their treachery
and treason, so that the place that
knows them now, shall know them no
more forever. And that day is not far
distant.
TIIE BATTLE, THE BATTLE.FIELD
AM) THE CASDIBATE.
The great issue of the pending con
flict is, shall the Government created
by the Constitution be perpetuated, or
shall it be supplanted by a centralized
organism? Subordinate to this and
connected therewith are the questions
of reconstruction, of negro supremacy
ami of national finance. Radical lead
er-see in these the means to the at
tainment of their great end. States
are coerced into the support of this pro
ject; negro votes are valueless but for
this object, and patronage and place,
banks, treasury and financial agencies
are made to lend their powerful influ
ence to the preservation of Radical
rule, to thef centralization of the Gov
ernment and the overthrow of the
Constitution. The battle to be waged
involves the vitality of our institu
tions.
The battle-field in this great strug
gle, is Pennsylvania. In Presiden
tial contests for seventy years, the
Keystone has invariably voted with
the majority. Her vote in October
has always been the certain precursor
of her verdict in November. Success
in October is invariably followed by
success in November ; defeat in Octo
ber is the herald of defeat in Novem
ber. Her voice in October is poten
tial with other Commonwealths
York aw New Jersey usifllfy
follow her lead, and always show sym
pathetic action. Our victory in Oc
tober, 1 S<>7, swelled the majorty in
New York in November. To lose
the October election, is to lose Penn
sylvania. The loss of Pennsylvania
is the loss of the battle. The loss of
this battle is the destruction of the
Government. Here is our Thermopy
lae; the "ides" of October determine
our destiny. To win this contest eve
ry energy should be bent; to insure
success every extraneous aid should
be yielded us; to compel this victory
our brethern everywhere should aid us.
The action of the New York Con
vention in its selection of a candidate,
will be potent injts bearings for good
or evil upon our cause, in October,
and that great party "tribunal of the
last resort" should heed the voices of
our counselors, and attentively ponder
the views of the leading men of our
delegation. Pennsylvania is uncom
mitted to a candidate. She will sac
rifice to success everything but prin
ciple. We believe that her delegation
will esteem success here in October
vital to success throughout the Union
in November; that they will insist
upon the choice of that candidate who
will most essentially aid us in carry
ing our State, and that they will re
sist, with all .honorable means, the
nomination of any one whose ante
cedents or present position will tend
to make that result in any degree
problematical. We believe that they
will regard the prestige of a great
name, or the most faultless party
record, as of no weight, if it be ren
dered clear that success is jeopardized
by the selection of their possessor.
The hour is inopportune for the re
quital of party services or the eleva
tion of parly idols. Our first duty is
to save the Government; and we mis
take the character of those great men
who are now prominent for the nomi
nation at New York, if in the spirit
of self-sacrifice, they, too, do not say"
"everything for the cause, nothing for
men." The choice of a candidate is
not difficult, when an invincible will
for the preservation of the Govern
ment, a spirit of cordial co-operation
for success and a determination to
sacrifice our personal preferences to
the common good, are brought to the
t isk. The mass of our Democracy
are deeply imbued with these senti
ments but they regard success here
as a vital pre-requisite to final victory,
and therefore they insist upon the
nomination of one who can assuredly
carry Pennsylvania. There are such
men, lx>th soldiers and civilians, men
of large ininds, thoroughly trained in
the logic of our governmental system
and in the traditions of our party, of
spotless reputation, of unblemished
party record, and surrounded with
the pristige of success. Give us one
of tiiese, and our march to victory
will be an easy and a triumphant one.

A meeting of negroes was held in one
of the churches of Richmond during
the session of the Radical State Con
vention last week, and a petition was
gotten up and forwarded to General
Schoficld. requesting him to stop the
further naturalization of foreigners in
Virginia. Is it not astonishing to see
how rapidly the poison of Know-Noth
ingism has spread among tlie negroes?
They have scarcely been granted the
right of suffrage until they desire to
deprive foreign-born white citizens of
the privilege. That is the natural
effect of Radicalism. As a party it
conceals its hatred of foreigners for the
present, but it rankiess deep in the
heart of the organization, and crops
out constantly. The negroes of the
South have been imbued with it by
the Radical carpet-bag adventurers
who have gone there from the North.
Let the Germans throughout the coun
try he careful to make a note of the
action of these Virginia negroes.—Lan

WHAT REAL ESTATE IS EXEMPT
FROM TAXATION*.—The Legislature:
has passed a law, exempting the fol
lowing real estate property from taxa
tion :
SEC. 57. All lands which have been i
or may hereafter be granted, within !
this State, to any officers or soldiers of j
the line of this State, by virtue of any
resolution of Congress, or law of this !
Sta'e, as a reward for their services,!
shall be and are hereby exempted from
taxation for and during the life of such
officers or soldier respectfully, unless
the sameshall be transferred or aliened
to any other person.
SEC. 58. All churches, meeting-hous
es or other regular places of stated re
ligious worship, with theground there- j
to annexed, for the occupancy and bet- j
tor enjoyment of the same; all burial
grounds belonging to any religious
congregation, all universities, colleges,
academies and school houses, belong-j
ing to any county, borough or school
district, or incorporated city, erected, j
endowed or established by virtue oij
any law of this Commonwealth, with ;
ground thereto annexed, all court j
houses and jails, be and the same are j
hereby exempted from all and every
county, road city, borough, poor and
school tax ; and all taxes hereto lore
assessed 011 any such property shall
not hereafter be collected, but the re
spective officers, charged with the col
lection thereof shall and are hereby
exonerated from the collection and j
paying over of the same: Provided, j
That five acres of land, together with
the improvements thereon, attached
|>to all such religious congregations,:
universities, colleges, academies and
school houses, belonging to any county,
borough or school district aforesaid,
and 110 more than live acres of land,
with the improvements thereon, at-j
taehed thereto, shall be exempt from
taxation as aforesaid.
SEC. 51). It shall be the duty of the \
several assessors in this Commonwealth
to make return of all property now,
or which hereafter may be specially j
exempt by act of Assembly from taxes,
in a separate list to the commissioners
of the proper county, for which service
the said assessor shall receive the same
compensation as is allowed for like.ser
vices in other cases.
DKAIII WON'T SAVE VOL.—It has
been decided that dying won't save
man or woman from the payment of
taxes. Assessors- are instructed that
'incomes of persons who died after the
.'list of December, are taxable, and
should be returned by executors, and
also all incomes which accrued in 18G7,
to persons who died within that year.
Incomes accruing after decease should
be returned by heirs. Thus it is seen
that the insatiate tax-gatherer follows
a man in his coffin, sits at the portals
of the tomb, plants himself by the side
of the grave digger, as he drops the
clods upon the mortal remains, and
after dogging the carriages of the
mourners, stalks home like a spectre,
and enters upon his books the expected
income the Treasury is to derive there
from. What a blessing is a public
debt!
MII.KIXG COWS BY STEAM.—AII ex
change says:—"The funniest picture
we have seen for a Jong time, out of a
professedly comic newspaper, is that in
t-he last number of the Scientific Ameri
can, representing the operation of a
cow milking machine. The cows stand
in a row ; attached to each teat is a tube
with a close-fitting mouth, and all
these tubes communicate with pumps,
which are driven by steam or horse
power. The cows being thus properly
tapped, the pumps are set to work, and
theiniik drawn from their udders neat
ly,expeditiously,and with comfort tot he
animals. Indeed, the editor says, 'the
cows soon learn to come to the ma
chine if fed or salted a few times while
being milked.' What next ?"
THI'K.— Dr. Franklin remarked that a
man as often gets two dollars for the
one he spends informing his mind, as a
dollar laid out in any otherway. A man
eats a pound of.sugar and it is gone
and the pleasure lie has enjoyed is en
ded, and the information he gets from
a newspaper is treasured up to be en
joyed anew, and to be used whenever
occasion or inclination calls for it. A
newspaper is not the wisdom of a man,
or two men—it is the wisdom of the
age, and of past ages too. A family
without a newspaper is always behind
the times in general information; he
sides they can never think much or
find much to talk about.

REASONS WHY.
We are enabled to offer superior inducements to j
purchasers of clothing, to which your attention
is respectfully invited. _ !
We have a business experience of more than 25 ;
years, have been longer established than any
house in our trade in Philadelphia.
We employ sufficient capital to make ALI. PUR
CHASES FOR CASH, which, together with the
fact that our large business enables us to buy in
large amounts in first hands, thereby saving all
profits of joboers and middlemen, give us ad
vantages in purchasing at the lowest rates, !
SHARED BY NO HOUSE IN OUR TRADE.
We sell only for cash and having no losses from bad 1
debts to provide for, the paying customer is not j
TAXED TO UEI.P PAY THE DEBT OF ANOTHER WHO
does not pay, as is inevitably tlie case in a busi i
ness where credit is given.
We employ the best talent in all departments, j
which, with long experience, enable us to man- |
ufacture garments SUPERIOR IN EVERY RES
PECT— equalled by few —sitrpassed by none.
We have the largest establishment for the manu
facture and sale of clothing in Philadelphia,
extending through from 518 Market street to
511 Minor street, occupied exclusively by our-:
selves, also a branch store at 601) Broadway.
New York, and keep at all times of
MEN'S, YOUTH'S and BOYS' READY-7SIADE
CLOTHING, the largest stock and best assort
ment in the city, from which any person can be !
accurately fitted at once, as well, or better, than
by garments made to order, our large stock
comprising every size of all styles of goods.
We have reccntiy added to our previous stock a
full assortment of
| CHILDREN'S GARIBALDI -AND OTHER
; SUITS, equal to any in the city in style, trim
ming, and make; which are sold at lower pri
ces than have hitherto been known in Phila
delphia. They, with all our Boys' aiul Youth's
goods, are kept on the first floor, nearest the
front, convenient for ladies. We have also re
cently opened ou our SECOND FLOOR A
; CUSTOM DEPARTMENT for the display of a
I choice selection of Foreign and Doinestiq Fa
brics in the piece, which will be MADE UP TO OR
DER. in the best style, by competent and skill
ful cutters aud workmen. The advantage of
dealing with a CASH HOUSE will be especially
apparent in this department, upon a compari
son of prices.
! We guarantee our prices lower than the lowest
j elsewhere and also guarantee full satisfaction to
I every purchaser, and request, that should any
: cause of dissatisfaction exist with a purchase
i made, it may be reported to us, pledging our
: selves, by exchange, refunding of money, or oth
■ erwise, to give full satisfaction in every case.
