"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! Road and ye shall know! The
• BEDFORD GAZETTE, for the Presi
dential Campaign, will be a complete
com pend ium of political news, speeches,
documents and every thing that per
tains to a political canvass in the col

Not only should every Democrat
have his county newspaper, during the
coming campaign, but he should like
wise make it a point to furnish his Re
publican neighbor a copy. This is
the plan upon which our opponents
have acted for years, and it is about
time that Democrats do something of
the same sort. NOW, GO TO WORK
and put your Democratic newspaper into
the handx of every Republican who will
read. If you will do this you will
accomplish more good in six months
than you will by any other means in
six years. Democratic politicians,
throughout the county, are enabled, by
the above low terms, to circulate Dem
ocratic newspapers at a very small
cost. We appeal to them to see to get
ting up clubs, and to see to it in time.
Now is the time to sow the seed. Af
ter a little while the heat of passion
and prejudice will beam upon the pub
lic mind in all its intense fierceness,
and then seed-time will have passed.
Friends, let us bear from you !

A COLORED DELEGATE to the Chica
go Convention, who had been in
Washington some days and had become
acquainted with the faces of many of
the prominent public men, was in the
wildly excited crowd on Monday week,
that filled all the approaches to the
Senate, jostling about among his white
brethren. When lie saw Chief Justice
Chase enter a carriage, with Senators
Fessenden, Johnson and Sprague,
followed by Henderson, Trumbull
Grimes and Van Winkle, he exclaim
ed, "Dar dey go, 'totin de 'peachment
'long wid 'em!"
IT "is said that a committee of such
incorruptible patriots as Cameron, Cat
tell and Ramsay, is to be appointed,
at an early day, to investigate charges
of corruption against Trumbull and
Fesseuden ! The great experience of
these Senators suggests their names at
once.
GOV. GEARY IX I<U MASSIOS."
We are indebted to the Harrisburg
State Guard for a full account of the
visit to Governor Geary of a number
of members of the National Lutheran
Synod, which was in session in that
| city last week.
Alter the guests had assembled, the
i Rev. Dr. Pohlinan proceeded to ad
! dress the Governor. We have no de
' sire to indulge in severe criticism of
| the gentleman's address, but if the visit
j was one of courtesy on the part of the
! heads of a great Christian denomina-
I tion, to the executive of a great State,
J then was the speech—with its cant
about "loyalty," "reconstruction" and
all that, and its ridiculous flattery of
the Governor,—in exceedingly bad
' taste. We make an extract:
"I know it is usual to address the
chief magistrate of Pennsylvania as
his 'Excellency', but in New York it
jis our custom to think and speak of
i General Geary, remembering the bat
tle among the clouds, and the triumph
ant march to the sea—as the brave de
fender of our Union, and I am there
foreinelined to addressyou as the brave
General of the Republic." Ac.
That touch about the clouds, is very
fine. Did the Doctor mean that the
pious Geary had been translated to
theskies, amid cherubim and seraphim,
just out of reach of unfriendly bullets,
and had come down in the moment of
victory? But, in the meantime, while
Geary, perched on the edge of a cloud,
was serenely surveying the field,
where were Sherman and Thomas and
McPherson ?
•'Your Geary 's a gallant commander.
Hut there are others as gallant as he
What follows in the Doctor's address
concerning the Governors' intimate re
lations with i leaven, we may not allude
to, as such things are among men's
privatest affairs. After further speech,
curiously mingling polities and relig
ion, Dr. Pohlinan withdrew, and the
Governor arose, Jenkins tells us, with
: "evident emotion." After welcoming
I the delegates to his mansion, he pro
ceeded to relieve himself of the emo
tion. "Ideas," he said, "crowded up
on him. lie did not know which to
express first. The address of the Pres
ident had overwhelmed him." We
confess that the allusion to the clouds
was somewhat of a stunner. Soldier
like, he spoke of the CHURCH Mir.i
--•
TANT, as a grand army of christians go
ing forward, battling in the.-acrcd cause
of Right against Wrong, with capital
letters; marching under the banner of
Temperance against King Alcohol, also
with emphatic types. Thus far there
is nothing in the weight of the "ideas"
to overwhelm the Governor, or beg
'
ging Dr. Poll 1 man's pardon, the "brave
Genera! of the Republic." After |
struggling manfully amid a "crowd of;
ideas," in which he seemed for a time
to be lost, tin* General emerged trium
phantly, thus :
"I feel it my duty, as chief Magis- j
trate of this State, to extend my sym
pathies and my co-operation to all the
christian churches of this common
wealth. lam ready to sustain them i
in their good work, and to help them
to carry it to success. lam now equal- j
ly ready to sustain it as 1 have been,
and a< I am still ready to sustain the ;
cause of my country. 1 am a> well
prepared to lay down my life for this '
rause, as I have been to lay it down j
for the cause of my country."
While there is no overwhelming j
weight of "Ideas" in this burst, there i
an oppressive and all pervading pres
ence of the first letter of the word.—
We are satisfied that his Excellency
would never have used such a com
monplace, were there no. a capital "1"
to it.
But does our heroic General intend
to turn missionary ? Has he determin
ed that when his brief term expires,
he will seek no further among the
vain and wicked of litis world for
office, but devote himself to the cause
of temperance and humanity? Have
the little hints lately received at Phil
adelphia, from ungrateful soldiers and
citizens, turned the "ideas" of the
"General of the Republic." to loftier
things than such baubles as Governor
and Vice President ? But we hope it
| is not his intention to deliver temper
ance lectures, for the taste of the vul
gar is against his style; and many
members of the G. T. whisper that his
speech is garnished too much with his
favorite pronoun, hardly leaving
enough of the article or his humbler
j brethren. If it he really his purpose
! to enter the great field of moral reform,
what a work is opened to him among
his Radical associates! From the ex
j perience he has gathered among them,
his services would be invaluable.—
He could tell us, now that Im
peachment is as dead as "old King
Nine," what were the inducements
among Pennsylvania Radicals to com
mit that greai wrong. He could re
veal all about the "rings" already form
ed, under his eyes, in Harrisburg, and
Philadelphia,todistributetheoffieesand
| share the spoils of the Treasury under
the immaculate Ben. Wade. Nay,
he could read endless homilies to the
. rising generation, on the bitter disap
pointment-- that wait on those who
| put their trust in princes and politi
cians.
tVAinxti to:: the > ERIHCT,
The radicals in Congress solemnly
formed the highest court known to the
constitution, to try the President of
the United States, and promised a full,
fair and impartial trial; but no sooner
did they begin to have misgivings a
bout the verdict, than they invoked
mass meetings of their most desperate
followers, to threaten and denounce
the court. One Senator, (Henderson,
of Missouri,) is impudently requested
to resign, if he cannot vote for convic
tion ; others, the purest and best men
of the party, are openly charged with
corruption, and others threatened wTth
the heaviest punishment the party can
inflict. But despite the howls and
shrieks of Greeley and Forney, and the
telegraphic despatches of Butler, Lo
gan and Washburne, the people hold
no mass meetings, but calmly await
the verdict.
But what say the plain people of the
country to this new phase of radical
ism, this infamous attempt to tamper
with the consciences of the members
of tlie high court of Impeachment?
What would the good people of Bed
ford comity say, if, while a jury delib
erating within the walls of the court
house, a mob were to gather without
and fiercely demand a verdict accord
ing to their wishes? Yet this is what
has been inaugurated by this party
thift constantly boasts of its love of law
and order. Xo doubt there are many
blind and besotted partizans who will
say this is all right. But the day will
surely come when every honest man
will blush that he belongs to a party
that can resort to such disgraceful
means to gain a political end.
The patterns and models of these
Radical fanatics were the French .Jac
obins, who threatened with the guil
lotine, all who dared to vote against
the conviction of Louis XVI. Mobs
led onjiy wretches like Marat, Sau
terreand Babmuf, men no worse than
Butler, Forney and Brownlow, sur
rounded the doors of the convention,
and demanded the death of the King.
History records the fate of those who
in that fearful time, under the corrup
tion of fear and the oppression of con
science, violated their oaths, and voted
the death of their Chief Magistrate.
Those wlio voted for acquittal were
sent to the scaffold, or, hunted like
wild beasts, wandered up and down
the earth, outcasts and fugitives, until
France, rent by factions, and bleeding,
her constitution, destroyed, threw her
self despairingly into the hands of a
military despot. Can it be that the
Radicals arc preparing for us the*same
fate in nominating the master of fifty
battalions, as their candidate for Presi
dent ?
AQi'ITTE!
The vote was taken on the eleventh
article of the Impeachment, on Satur
day last, and the Psesident was acquit
ted. The vote stood 3o for conviction,
lit lor acquittal. Seven Republican
Senators, Fesseriden, Fowler, Grimes,
Henderson, Ross, Trumbull atld Van
Winkle, voted for acquittal. This
was considered the strongest article.
After the vote, the Court adjourned
until next uesday. The Radical
party is now hopelessly ruined. Ac
quittal, or removal, will lie alike fatal
to it. its best men, such as Chase,
Fes enden, Trumbull and Grimes, have
been compelled to throw themselves
into its path and arrest its reckless
career, and they have done it. God
be thanked for these upright men in
the hour of our country's need !
JOHN A. Lou AX, the grand Tycoon
of the "Grand Army of the Republic,"
has issued a florid order directing that
the "G. A. It." strew the graves of
dead soldiers with flowers on the 30th
of this month. Now, it is all right and
proper that this floral offering to the
gallant dead should be made, and we
recommend everybody to join in the
tribute; but we desire to call attention
to the fact that this order of the "G.
A. 1t.," is a secret, oath-bound politic!it
organization, and the Impeacher Lo
gan takes this method of attracting to
his sworn cabal, the heftiest, the patri
otic and the unsuspecting. Shame on
such trickery as would even make the
grave a stepping stone to success ! We
siy, let the flowers be strewn, but not
because "dirty work" Logan suggests
it, or the.secret, oath-bound "G. A. R."
directs it. Let this thing be done in
dependently of cliques, or parties, or
midnight leagues.
TIIE Radical* National (!) Conven
tion meets at Chicago to-day (Wednes
day.) It will doubtless nominate for
President, the fellow who was proved
a liar a-few months ago by five mem
bers of President Johnson's Cabinet,
and some other scalawag, like Wade,
Wilson, or Colfax, for Vice President.
There are thirty-eight coal black Ne
gro delegates to the Convention!
Great God! Is this what the "Repub
lican" party has come to!

Benjamin F. Wade tried to vote
Johnson out of, and himself into, the
Presidency, on Saturday last. This
bronze-faced old blasphemer coolly
stood up in the Senate, and brazenly
cast his vote as a juror in a cause in
which he was pecuniarily interested to
the amount of a salary of $20,000!!!
Shame, where is thy blush! Oh!
ltadicnlism, how low art thou fallen!
BEN. BUTLER complains that Fessen
den, Henderson and Trumbull were
so unkind as not to let their "old
friends" know how they intended "to
vote long ago. -It would have saved
such an amount of useless vaporing
Butler snivels out like Rob the Grind
er, that it was "a goin' back on coves
wot they know'd!" Greely, on the
other hand, abuses Senator Grimes
without stint, because he did let his
old friends know how he meant to
vote.

AN IMMENSE PRINTING HOUSE.—
We are indebted to the Messrs. Apple
ton and Company, New York, for a I
cut with full description of their im
mense printing house and book manu
factory, lately erected in Brooklyn,
New York. We have not room to
print the description of this great "es
tablishment, entire, but the following!
paragraph will give an idea of its di
mensions : *
Kent Avenue, a wide thoroughfare, !
up and down which the cars run be- |
tween the two divisions of present
Brooklyn, fronts the pile. It is a good- !
ly facade—the western one. Its gener
al appearance is castellated. There are
great tower-like structures at each end,
connected by a less elevated range; and
midway of the latter a mighty double
gate of oak and iron, at which one looks
to see a warder standing. This front
is 200 feet. On Penn street, to the
south, the building is one story high,
and extends 19:1 feet; on Hewes street,
north it is four stories high, and 2">2
feet. When the con tern plated addi
tions are made, the Appletons will oc
cupy a strongly-fortified quadrilateral,
where they can hold out for an unlimi
ted period against the severest siege of
the book-buyers. The entire area then
enclosed will be 00, 100 square feet, or
one and a quarter acres. Of this the
buildings, with all the projected im
provements, will not occupy more than
two-thirds—thus leaving in the centre
an ample space for the sunlight to rest
and the winds of heaven to play in.
Over a million cubic feet of space are
included in the buildings, as they now
stand. So says the architect, and peo
ple generally will take his word for it,
in preference to measuring for them
selves.
The buikling is complete in all its ap
pointments. On each floor is a tire
plug ready for attachment, and the
machinery is propelled by an eighty
horse engine. In "all respects this is j
probably the most complete printing
house in the world.
THE LADY'S FRIEND FOR JI NK.— :
Whatever the Ladies' Magazines may ;
have been in times past, some of those ;
of the present day, both 111 respect to i
engravings and as to their literary con- j
tents, are of a very high character. j
The steel engravings are executed in
the best style of art—the fashions are j
refined,judicious and elegant—while;
their literary contents often surpass in j
their peculiar line the efforts of the
masculine monthlies. To blame these
magazines for not being more solid and
heavy, is as sensible as to blame a young
girl for not being an old man—or a
rose for not being a potato. We take j
the magazine before us—one of the i
best of its class—and what do we find? |
A well executed and suggestive steel
engraving, called "The Prisoner of
State." A handsome and picturesque
colore I steel fashion plate of Fancy
OiMttn<M. - l) intoreuting wood on- |
graving of the "First Church in Eng
land and a number of other engrav
ings illustrative of the present modes
for women and children's dresses. ;
And, in addition to all this, novelets j
and stories by such writers as Harriet
Prescott Spoflbrd, Elizabeth Prescott,
Amanda # M. Douglass, August llell,
Miss Muzzey, <fce. Now when in addi
tion to*uch writers, we give the names
of Mrs. Henry Wood (the English nov
elist), Louise Chandler Moulton, Flor
ence Percy, Margaret Hosmer, and
others who contribute to the LADY'S
FRIEND, our readers will see that this
magazine must necessarily take as high 1
a rank in literature, as it evidently
does in fashion. The truth is that, so j
costly are the adornments of these la- '
dies' magazines, it takes a very large '
edition even to pay their expenses, j
The "Lady's Friend" is publisned by i
Deacon & Peterson, DID Walnut Street,
Philadelphia, at 82.50 a year (which
also includes a large steel engraving.)
Sample copies, 1-3 cents.
DEMOREST'S ILLUSTRATED MONTH- j
LY.—This periodical has risen from be
ing a mere Gazette of Fashion, to the
position of the popular parlor maga
zine. Ladies who take it think "the j
world of it," as their phrase is, and are ;
quite sure they could not get along |
without it. Confessing our ignorance :
of those points which would enable us
to do entire justice to its merits, we j
may freely admit that it is most care
fully and conscientiously conducted,
that its literary tone is far superior to
the general run of parlor periodicals,
that its range of topics includes nearly ■
all interesting to women, that its in
formation upon household subjects is
complete and reliable, and its authori
ty indisputable. Moreover, its pat
terns alone are worth double the cost
of the magazine. A large and unusu
ally interesting amount of reading- j
matter is promised for July, for coun
try enjoyment. Three dollars yearly, j
Published by W. J. DE.MOREST, 473 j

THE GADAxv.—We have before us j
the June number of the best of the
literary monthlies. The "Galaxy" is
able, sensible and just; able as a liter
ary work, sensible as to its editorials j
and just in its criticism. "Steven j
Lawrence, Yeoman," is concluded in
the present number. "Jaroeho Life," !
by Mayne Reid, and "A Trip to Wy
andotte Cave," by F. M. Gary, are
worth the price of one year's subscirp
tion. There is also a number ot fine ;
illustrations. Address Sheldon A- Co., j
498 and 500 Broadway, X. Y. city.
PETERSON'S.--The June number of
the queen of the ladies magazines,
"Peterson's Ladies' Xational," is on
our table. It is rich in tales, poetry
and fashion gossip, and as for illustra
tions, it cannot be excelled. Every )a
<ly shou Id be a subscri ber to " Peterson." j

From the Lynchburg (Va.) Republican. May 12.
On Friday night last, Mr. Francis
Henry Brockenbrough, son of the Hon.
John W. Brockenbrough, and brotiier
of our highly esteemed townsman,
Major J. B. Brockenbrough, was walk
ing home, in Lexington, with his
mother and another lady, when they
were met by a negro man and some
negro women, who refused to give
them any way on the pavement. Young
Brockenbrough, on account of the la
dies under his charge, did not call the
negro to account at the time ; but, af
ter he had escorted his companions
home, he returned, and called on the
negro, more to demand why the insult
had been offered him and the ladies,
than with any definite purpose of pun
ishment. The black scoundrel, how
ever, drew a pistol at once, shot Mr.
Brockenbrough in the breast, inflict
ing a dangerous if not a fatal wound.
The negro was arrested at - o'clock
next morning aud placed in jail. When
the circumstances of the outrage be
came generally known, there was an
intense excitement in the community,
in which young Brockenbrough is
much beloved, and a crowd started for
the jail with the purpose of lynching
the negro. General Lee, however,
very properly interposed, and preven
ted the execution of this purpose. The
j excited crowd dispersed, and the law
will be suffered to take its course.
