A IMMtEHS OF 'l'll F, DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE. DEMOCRATIC*STATE COMMITTEE ROOMS. J CLEARFIELD, Pa., July 14, 1868. J To the people of Pennsylvania : The political contest just entered into is laden with grave results to your busi ness and to yourselves. The Radical party asks a renewal of its power and a continuance of its mis rule. Defeated in every recent election, it now disguises its principles and trusts for success to the military prestige of an available candidate. It offers to Grant the shadow of pow er, as a price for securing'the reality to Congress. Its success will bring you continued misgovernment by a Radical Congress, the control of every department of the government by Radical domination and the perpetuation of its iniquities, its prostration of your business inter ests. It came into existence to benefit the negro; its devotions to his interests gave us four years of war, grinding taxation and three thousand millions of debt; its determination to place the negro over the white man has for more than three years kept society shatter ed, commerce paralyzed, industry pros trated, the national credit below par and the Union divided. It has governed us for near eight years; the history of its first admini stration is written in four years of blood and recorded in an enormous national debt; the history of its second administration is near four years of peace, with absolute power, and a Union not restored, a government of the sword, business destroyed, taxa tion crushing the energies of the peo ple and the negro vested with the bal ance of power. Its end and aim is the preservation of Radical power through the votes of negroes and to this will be sacrificed your material interests, and, if neces sary, your personal rights and form of government. Military rule oppresses the nation and eats out the substance of the peo ple. It is fit that Grant should lead the party that maintains that rule, for his laurels were gathered by the sword alone. The Democratic party, placing itself upon the Constitution, pledges itself to strict obedience thereto, to the main tenance of the government created thereby, to the supremacy of law. to a reform of abuses, to economy in ad ministration, to equal taxation, and to justice to all. It antagonizes and denounces that infamous policy which, during more than three years of peace, has over taxed the people, has governed by the sword and has destroyed the credit of the nation. Its policy is one of thoughtful fore - sight, of cautious statesmanship; it seeks no new {rath ; but by the line of the written law, in the light of exper ience, it will guide the Republic back to the highway of program and pros perity, and will restore to it national credit and fame. It presents to you with pride its can didate for the Presidency: Horatio Seymour, of New York, a statesman and an honest man. Capable and pure, possessed of large experience and g.ft ed with the rarest qualities of the head and of the heart, strong in intellect, sound in judgment and prompt in ac tion, none more competent to lead us back to the haven of law and order. Pennsylvania owes [hiin a debt of gratitude for his prompt aid when her border was attacked. The issues are liefore you; they are, The statesman against the mere sol dier ; intellect against force; the law against the sword. It is for you to determine which of these will best suit our present unhappy condition. By order of the Democratic State Committee. • WILLIAM A. WALLACE, Chairman. A FEW WORDS WITH OI K SOI.OIEK CITIZENS. It is a trick of the Radical politicians to endeavor to appeal to prejudice in stead of reason, to hate, instead of love. They call upon the people of the North to revive the strife an 1 bitterness of the war and to rekindle the feud be tween the North and the South which fell to ashes with the surrender of the Southern armies. As a part of this trick, they ask the soldier citizen to vote for Gen. Grant, because of his ser vices during the war. By this means they hope to screen from observation the hideous record they have made during the past three years; to hide the fact that they have forced Negro Suffrage , nay, NEGRO DOMINA TION, upon ten States of the Union, to conceal the fact that they are keepiug up a Standing Army of 50,000 men to enforce their Negro policy at a cost of one hundred millions per annum, to cover from sight the fact that they are maintaining the Negroes of the South in idleness, through the agency of the Freedmen's Bureau, in order to use them as voting machines, at an expense of millions annually, to blind the peo ple to the fact that since the close of the war, TWENTY-TWO HUNDRED MILLIONS of dollars have been col lected in taxes and raised in loans, and yet the public debt, instead of decreas ing has increased, and to cause men to forget the fact that they have conspired to overthrow the Supreme Court and to usurp the Presidential oflice by an unwarranted impeachment. To enable them to perform this trick, Grant has consented to become their tool. He ac cepts the platform made for him at Chicago, which pledges hint to maintain NEGRO SUFFRAGE and NEGRO RULE in the ten States in which it has been established. He is no longer Grant fighting for the Union and the Constitution, but Grant, the candidate of a party which has placed the heel of the Negro upon the neck of the White Man ; the candidate of a party which has, in the Senate of the United States, REJECTED OVER TWO THOUSAND OF THE BRAVEST AND BEST SOLDIERS that ever drew blade, to make room for scoun drels like the notorious Callicott, who are now expiating their crimes in the penitentiaries of the country ; the can didate of a party which taxes the sol dier who received but sl3 per month and a paltry'bounty, in greenbacks, in order to pay the bloated, aristocratic, nabob Bondholder his interest in gold. And who is Grant? Who made him what he is? Who gave him his repu tation as a general ? The hundreds of thousands of common soldiers whose bones lie bleaching in wilderness, on rock and in ravine, the legless and armless he roes who bled upon (he gory field, the brave survivors to whom the appeal of hatred and revenge now comes from the Radical Demagogues , these put the three stars upon the shoulders of Ulyss es. You, soldier citizens, you and your dead and maimed comrades, made Grant what he is. \ou gave him suc cess. His generalship consisted in hurling you recklessly againstlhe forti fications of the enemy. Being in favor with Stanton, he knew that if you were slain, two recruits would fill your place. Did he care for your life ? Did he, by skillful manoeuvres, strive to save his army from the necessity of charges like that at Cold Harbor, or Fort Hell ? No, he had chosen "a line," and on that he "would fight it out," though he had in the end to take Mc- Clellan's route, which he could have done without the losses at the Wilder nesss, Mine Run, Spottsylvania, Cold Harl>or, and the numerous fruitless battle-fields on "that line," What claim, then, has Grant upon your support? Have not you who risked your lives to place those three stars upon his shoulders and those twenty thousand dollars per annum in his pocket, greater claims upon him than he possibly can have upon you ? He is no statesman, all admit. He is in the hands of WASHBURNE, the most contemptible of Radical small beer politicians. Shall, then, the mis erable appeal to your passions, to hate and vengeance, mislead you into the support of one whom you owe nothing. and who all must admit, is incompe tent? It cannot be. You fought for the Union, a Union of peace, and love, not of malice, anger and hate. You fought to bring back rebelg, and how the appeal is made to you to spurn them and refuse to them back. Can you not say with the great, the noble-hearted, the generous and forgiv ing Democracy, as you take the erring (Southerner by the hand, and with him pledge fealty to the Union, eternal and irrevocable, "Go, brother, sin no more?" ORIEL FOR WEAK STOMACHS. Stanton Endorses Seymour. Lineoln Thanks Him for His Serviees When Pennsylvania was invaded. The Radicals have raised their old cry of "copperhead" against the U nion Democrat, Horatio Seymour, and the dashing Union General, Frank Blair. This was to be expected, for it is their only stock in trade. They were ready to raise the same cry a gainst Gen. Hancock or any body else who might receive the Democratic nomination. They had already start ed the lie that Hancock rode in the same carriage with Jeff. Davis, when in New Orleans. They think they can nauseate some weak stomachs by this filthy dose of "copperhead !" "copper head !" As an antidote to this we give, from the record, the following: WASHINGTON, June 15,1803 To his Excellency, Gov. Seymour: The movements of the rebel forces in Virginia arenow sufficiently developed to show that General Lee, with his whole ariny, is moving forward to in vade the States of Maryland and Penn sylvania, and other States. The President, to repel the invas ion promptly, has called upon Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Western Pennsylvania, for one hundred thous and militia, for six months, unless sooner discharged. It is important to have the largest possible force in the least possible time, and if other States would furnish militia for a short time, to be credited in the draft, it would greatly advance the object. Will you please inform me immediately if, in answer to a special call of the Presi dent, you can raise and forward say twenty thousand militia as volunteers, without bounty, to be credited in the draft of your State, or what number you can possibly iaise? EDWIN M. STANTON, Secretary of War. WASHINGTON, June 15,1863. GOVERNOR SEYMOUR : The President desires me to return his thanks with those of this Depart ment, for your prompt response. A strong movement of your city regi ments to Philadelphia would be a very encouraging movement, and do great good in giving strength in that State. EDWIN M. STANTON, Secretary of War. WASHINGTON, Juno 19, 1563. To Adjutant General Sprague: The President directs me to return his thanks to his Excellency Governor Seymour, and his staff, for their ener getic and prompt action. Whether any further force is likely to be requir ed will be communicated to you to morrow, by which time it is expected the movements of tiie enemy will be more fully developed. EDWIN M. STANTON, Secretary of War. WAR DEPARTMENT, I WASHINGTON, June 27,1863. j DEAR SIR— I cannot forbear express ing to you the deep obligation I feel for the prompt and candid support you have given to the Government in the present emergency. The energy, ac tivity and patriotism you have exhibi ted I may be permitted personally and officially to acknowledge, without arrogating any personal claims on my part to such service, or to any service whatever. I shall be happy always to be es teemed your friend, EDWIN M. STANTON, Secretary of War. His Excellency, Horatio Seymour. TAX THE liOXDS. Upwards of tico thousand millions of dollars of property in U. S. Bonds are untaxed, the interest upon which is paid in gold out of taxes upon other property and the industry of the peo ple. At least Jive hundred millions of this property is held by British and other foreign capitalists. The Demo cratic platform proposes to tax those bonds as other property is taxed. Is not this right? Is it not fair? Nay, is it not necessary in order to assist in the payment of the public debt? The Radical party exempt the British bond holder, and make the farmer, the mer chant, the mechanic and the laborer pay taxes out of which the bondholder is paid his interest in gold. Let every man, Democrat and Republican, vow that he will vote for no candidate who will not pledge himself in favor of tax ing the bonds and paying off the pub lic debt as speedily as praticable, in the lawful currency of the country. THE London journals are all for Grant, and predict his election. Dur ing the Rebellion they were for the Confederacy and predicted its success. Then they were for Southern rebels who were trying to divide the Union, now they are for Northern rebels who are doing all in their power to destroy it, . ALL who how the knee to the Baal of Radicalism are at once "reconstruct ed" and made truly "Joil." All who refuse to do this, are dL-JVanchised "rebels," "Let us have peace," says Grant. "Let us have peace," says Grant.. "War to the knife on all who wont vote our ticket," cry his friends. A PKJXIOIfi LOT. U. S. Grant is the man who, in cold blood, demanded of the War Depart ment that no exchange of prisoners should be made, when thousands of the bravest and best of our brothers and friends were suffering and dying in Southern prisons. It is eminently tit that he should be supported by Hor ace Greely, the bail of Jefferson Davis, by Joe Brown, of Gorgia, the founder of the Amlersont ille prison, by Ben. Butler the man who assisted in pre venting an exchange, by Stanton, who declared that he would not exchange healthy rebels for the skeletons of Un ion soldiers, by W. W. Ilolden, who offered a reward to any man wjio would assassinate Abraham Lincoln, •by John A. Logan, who tried to raise a regiment in Southern Illinois f#r service in the rebellion, but failing sold himself for a pair of epaulettes, by Bingham, denominated by Butler the murderer of an innocent woman, and by all the carpet-baggers and negroes who are now reaping the fruits of the sufferings and sacrifices of the soldiers of the Union. Grant and his suppor ters are a precious lot, truly. How their record appeals to the support of soldier citizens! It is positively irre sistible. THE KE<AISTKY VXD DESEKTKU LAWS. We have neglected to inform our readers that the Supreme court has declared both the Registry and the Deserter law unconstitutional and of 110 effect. These spawns of Radical ism have been wiped from our statute books by the highest tribunal of our State. All lienor to our independent judiciary! As gold gees up the bondholder makes money and the laborer loses. Tax the bonds, put greenbacks and gold on a par, and the bondholder and the plowholders will be treated alike. Is not this fair? * THERE is souie trouble in Franklin county 011 the Congressional question, and it is rumored that the übiquitous Johnny has gone on a pilgrimage thither to fix things up. HORACE GREEI.Y calls the soldiers who assembed in New York city "army worms." He was too coward ly to say so while they were in session there. REX WADE says that Grant wont talk anything but "horse." In No vember Grant will find himself liars du combat. THE English journals have taken a stand for Grant and the bond-holders. A sure indication that Seymour will be triumphantly elected. FIGURING I I* THE CHASCKS. Mr. Greeley, of the Tribune, has in dulged in a little figuring for the edifi cation of his friends, which he has herewith given: Mr. Lincoln had over 400,000 plurali ty, with nearly all the electoral votes, in 1864; yet mark how small a change in the popular vote would have defeat ed him ! He carried Electors Connecticut by 2,406 majority 6 Indiana by 20,189 majority 13 Maryland by 7,414 majority 7 Nevada by 3,235 majority 3 N. Hampshire by 3,529 majority 5 New York by 6,749 majority 33 Oregon by * 1,431 majority 3 Pennsylvania by 20,075 majority 26 Rhode Island by 5,631 majority 4 Total, 9 States, 70,655 majority 100 Add these to the voters of New Jer sey, Delaware, and Kentuckey—2l, and he would haye had 121; leaving to Mr. Lincoln but 114. Thus a change of less than 36,000 in over 4,000,000 votes would have elected McClellan over Lincoln, and changed our whole subsequent history. Since that time matters have changed a trifle. Connecticut has gone Demo cratic by about 1,700 majority ; Mary land by 40,000; Nevada by 500; New York by 60,000 ; Oregon by 1,500, and Pennsylvania by 1,200, leaving the Radicals only three States out of the nine, and only twenty-two out of the one hundred Lincoln electoral votes. This is doing pretty well; but we are capable of doing still better. The World has been figuring and speculating a little also. Here is what it has to say : States for Seymour and Blair. In canvassing the question with the delegates to the convention since the nomination was made, the following States are put down as sure for Sey mour and Blair: Connecticut • 6 New York 33 New Jersey 7 Pennsylvania -6 Ohio 21 Indiana 13 Oregon 3 Nevada 3 California 5 Delaware 3 Kentucky II Missouri H Kansas 3 Wisconsin 3 Maryland 7 Total 139 One hundred and fifty-nine votes are all that is necessary for election, and in the above tables there are one hun dred and sixty electoral votes with out counting MOO of the Southern States engaged in tfie rebelljpn. In the list pf States given, every one, save three in which a State election has been hold in the last eighteen months, has gone Democratic. In all, the lo cal elections have exhibited great Democratic gains, sufficient to insure the State for the Democracy this fall. Wc have not counted Illinois in the list, but the delegates to the conven tion declared that there was no doubt but Pendleton could carry that State. If it would be certain for Pendleton, then it can be safely counted for Sey mour and Blair. In addition to this, the States of Alabama, Georgia, and Mississippi, are certain to give a Dem ocratic majority with any fair chance for voting ; this will give 21 more elec toral votes and swell the Democratic column to IS4. But the Repub licans are laboring to exclude the votes of the States of Virginia, Texas, and Mississippi, by legislation in Congress. ■lf the electoral votes of these States are not counted, then there will be in the electoral college 291 votes, and 148 will be all that will be necessary to c lect. The Democracy can then lose Ohio, and still secure a majority of the electoral college without counting any from the South ; or, by carrying Ohio, they can lose Missouri, Wisconsin, and Kansas, and still elect their ticket without receiving a vote from the South. There is, therefore, every reason for encouragement to the Democracy, and the election of Seymour and Blair may be put down as a certainty. From the foregoing it will be seen that there is not an earthly doubt of the election of Seymour and Blair, not withstanding the fact that our adver saries are delighted with the nomi nations. No K'li>f lor Labor or Industry : Krar tion from Itadiralism in \c England. The Rump Congress devoted sever al hours on the 17th to the discussion of reviving our now all but totally annihilated mercantile marine. The New England members were particularly lachrymose. They spoke of deserted shipyards, the decay of a once flourishing commerce, and espec ially the monopoly by foreign ships, of the once valuable passenger traffic which American ships and American vessels participated so freely in days gone by. Some of them appealed for lower du ties on iron, copper, timber, cordage, hemp, and other things that enter in to the construction of ships and steam ers, on the ground that it would tend to revive ship building, provide em ployment for hundreds of thousands of Amerieon mechanics and workingmen who at present had nothing to do. It was of no use. The Thieves and Plunderers who had but a day or two before voted to take two millions of dollars from the public treasury, in or der to add to the salaries of their male and female parasites in the galleries, voted No ! no ! no I Labor and industry begged in vain for a hearing. But the Bondholders, the Big Bounty Robbers, the Shoddy National Bank interest, the Greenback Aristocracy, and the High Tariff swin dlers— all of whom go to make up the Radical party proper—were as deaf as adders. They would not hear. And so ruined commerce must stay ruined a while longer. Prostrate in dustry must continue prostrate yet a little space. The poor man must be patient, and try and pick up the crumbs that fall from the bloated Rad ical rich man's table, with as little murmuring as possible. He and all other of the oppressed must bide their time. That time now, it is a consola tion to know, is not far off. It will be here in November. it is a good sign to hear and to see the New England Radicals thus squirm over the desolation and ruin which have overtaken their material inter ests through the operation of the dia bolical policy of which they have themselves been the blind and per sistent supporters. If they are now getting their eyes open, and beginning really to repent, so much the better. It will help on the reaction which is bound to turn over the electorial votes of several of the New England States to the Democratic candidate for I'resi dent. • Tlic Wonllicr and its Fatal Effects.

WEIGHING ON THE FARM.— A half bushel measure is considered indis pensable by every farmer. lie does not sell his potatoes or grain, guessing at the contents of the bin or the pile on the floor, it must be measured. With this instrument at hand, he may know first how much corn is to be fed to the hogs and poultry, how many oats to the horses, how much seed is sown on the land and many other points equal ly valuable to know. But a good weighing scale is possessed by com paratively few, although its use would in many ways be even more valuable than the half bushel. For instance in selling live stock, the weight is usual ly estimated by the drover or butcher buying at the farmer's door. Long practice enables the buyer to weigh them very correctly with the eye and thus he has the unexperienced seller at an advantage which he is not slow to use. A good Fairbank's Standard and platform scale would save its cost in a few such transactions. The weight of grain per bushel, the gain of cattle un der different systems of feeding, exact ly when an animal ceases to increase by feeding and many other important facts can readily be determined by hav ing a good scale. Fairbank Scales have been named in this connection as being entirely reliable having been adopted as the Standard in this and other coun ties.
