IS Till: I \IX KKKTOUKD?
It is now upwards of three years since
the suppression of the rebellion. Dur
ing all this time the Radical party
have had complete control of the gov
ernment. The President, it is true,
opposed their revolutionary and uncon
stitutional measures, fiuv they depri
ved him of all practical power to iv~; st
them,and his vetoes were overridden, in
every instance, by a two thirds Radical
vote in both houses of Congress. They
have had the purse and the sword of
the Republic during th*~tlu:i;edrt>a(l
- we*~ j-rtirs, and what have they
accomplished? Is the Union restored
to-day? Are all the States hack in
their old places as members of the Un
ion ? No! Some of them, North Car
olina, South Carolina, Florida, Geor
gia, Louisiana, Arkansas and Alabama
are represented in Congress by carpet
bag members, and this representation is
only at the will of the majority in Con
gress. According to Edmunds' bill to
regulate the electoral college, which
passed the Senate, some time ago, that
body decided that only such states as
( on gress might declare to be entitled to
representation,shall in, l permitted to cast
t heir votes for President and Vice Pres
ident. Should any of the Southern
States vote for Seymour and Blair,itwill
lie an easy matter for Congress to < leclare
them not entitled to representation, and
th lis keep them out of the Union. Hence
the states just named, are mere tenants
at-will, under Congress, so far as mem
bership of the Union is concerned.
But where are Texas and Mississippi,
and where is old Virginia, the "moth
er of states and Statesmen ?" The
Southern states, every one of them, so
long ago as lsfiii, held conventions, re
pealed their ordinances of Secession, ac
cepted the abolition of slavery, elected
members of Congress and U. S. Sena
tors, and by every necessary exercise
of State authority, returned to their phi'
res in the I 'num. But the Radical < 'on
gress stopper! in with thoarmyandna-
vy, between them and the Union, re
solved to keep them out until they
could force Xfjro U/iuditj upon them
at the point of the bayonet. Misissiji
pi, by the votes of her own Negroes,
rejected this outrageous scheme. As
for Virginia and Texas, they have nev
er yet been given an opportunity to
vote for the Negro Constitutions which
are the Radical ultimata. Aye,
where are Mississippi, Virginia and
Texas? Out of the Union 10-dut/, krpt
out hii thefon'c of crutx, at an expense
of million- upon millions to the tax
payers of the North. And to this in
famous procedure, Gen. Grant, by ac
ceptingtho nomination of the Radicals,
has made himself a party. Can any
true Union man vote for him, and thus
endorse the l>isunion of the Radical
Parly?
IT is all right with the Radicals when
the brute Joe Brown, who as Governor
of Georgia, founded and kept up the
Andcrsonville prison pen, goes to their
Chicago Convention and helps them
nominate Grant, but when a brave
man like Wade Hampton, who met
our soldiers in the field, but didn't
starve them to death in prison, attends
a Democratic Convention, these saintly
hypocrites hold up their hands and roll
up their eyes in holy horror, at the
bare thought of such a tiling. Any
scalawag rebel is clasped to their bo
soms, if lie will vote for Grant or sleep
with a "nigger," but the purest and
most honorable Southern gentleman is
discarded by them, if he chooses to
vote with the Democrats. Out upon
such Pharisees! Their knavery is too
contemptible to bear discussion.
WHAT ARE YOUR PRINCIPLES?
Are you in favor of Negro Suffrage?
If so, vote for U. S. Grant. He stands
upon a platform which pledges the con
tinuance of Negro Suffrage in eleven
States of this Union, by the interfer
ence of the Federal Government.
Are you in favor of one rule of suf
frage for twenty-six States, and anoth
er for the remaining eleven? If so,
j vote for U. S. Grant. Ile is pledged to
this unequal doctrine by the Chicago
platform.
Are you in favor of the impeach
ment and removal of the President for
political reasons? If so, vote for U.
S. Grant. The Chicago platform en
dorses the impeachment conspiracy.
Are you in favor of Negro legisla-
I tures, Negro governors, and a Negro
! balance of power ? If so, vote for U.
i S. Grant. The platform which he has
I accepted sustains the Reconstruction
! acts by which these things have been
forced upon an unwilling people.
Are you in favor of a large standing
army and navy, maintained at an ex
| pense of one hundred and fifty millions
| per annum? I f so, vote for U. S.Grant.
| He stands upon a platform which pro
: poses to govern the Southern people by
the military despotism of the llecon
| struction acts.
Are you in favor of the continuance
| of the Freedmen's Bureau? If so, vote
I for U. S. Grant. He is the candidate
of the party which established and
which continues in existence that ex
! pensive institution.
Are you in favor of exempting the
j wealthy bondholders from taxation ?
If so, vote for IT. S. Grant. lie in the
candidate of the Money-King, A. T.
Stewart, and stands upon a platform
which is silent upon this subject.
Are you in favor of a double-faced
financial policy? If so, vote for U. S.
Grant. He is the candidate of a party
whose platform is construed by Greeley
and Forney to mean the payment of
the public debt in gold, and by Ste-
Wv und Butler to mean the payment
of the satin. ,greenbacks.
Are you in favor 01 .., n(]i( | ate who
declares he will have "no por.<. v jf
elected? If so, vote for U. S. Grant.
He assures you, in his letter of accept
ance, that he will not trouble the coun
try with a policy.
On the other hand, are you opposed
to Negro Suffrage ? Are you in favor
ofoneruleof suffrage for the whole
country, and that rule the regulation
of that question by the people of each
State for themselves ? Are you in fa
vor of rebuking the impeachers ? Are
you opposed to negro Legislatures, ne
gro Governors, and a negro balance of
power? Are you opposed to a large
standing army, and the continuance
of the Freedmen's Bureau ? Are you
in favor of taxing the bonds, and of the
payment of the public debt, as speedily
as practicable, iu the lawful currency
of the country, when not otherwise
provided by law ? Are you in favor of
a candidate who will hare a poliey, the
policy laid down by the Democratic
platform ? If so, vote for Horatio Sey
mour, the statesman, the scholar and
the Christian gentleman.
ANOTHER COVDIIOI.IUKS DEVICE.
A "funding hill" was passed by Con
gress, a few days liefore the adjourn
ment, which authorizes the holders of
the five-twenty bonds to fund their
securities by receiving therefor other
bonds at 4 per cent, interest, the princi
pal and interest to he payable in gold.
This was done in order to head off the
po[mlar movement to pay off these
bonds in greenbacks. The bond-hold
ers want to continue to suck the iife
blood out of the labor and Cue industry
of the country, by drawing their inter
est in yold , and after a while they will
demand, under this "funding bill,"
the payment of the principal in gohl.
Rut the people have something to say
to this. The next Congress will be
Democratic, and then discriminations
in favor of the bond-holder will cease.
The industrial interests of the country
cannot afford to ]iermit the election of
another such Congress as the present.
oa K xteiixf.F.s RUN THE I.EUISI.A
TIKK.
We rai-e to-day the names of Abra
ham Wilson, of Somerset county, and
(Jeo. MeGovern of Fulton, as the
nominees of the Democratic party for
members of the House of Representa
tives for this district. They are good
men and true, honest and capable, and
ought to be elected by a handsome
majority. Air. Wilson served during
the war, in the 51th Pa. vols., and is
beloved and respected, not only by his
late comrades in arms, but by all who
enjoy his acquaintance. Esq. MeGov
ern is a well-known citizen of Fulton
county, was atone time commissioner
of that county, and has always taken a
prominent part in the public affairs of
little Fulton. We defy the Radical- to
match this ticket.
THE Radicals have started the lie
that there was a Negro delegate in the
Democratic National Convention at
New York. We will make any one a
present of ONE HUNDRED DOL
LARS if he gives the Negro's name,
or proves that any black man was a
member of that body.

LETTER OF GEN. HANCOCK.
He Conirs Out Strong for Seymour and
Blair.
We ask the attention of our readers,
and especially of every citizen who
served in the Union army during the
late war, to the letter of Gen. W. S.
Hancock, which will be found on the
first page of this issue. It will be seen
that the gallant General most cordially
and emphatically endorses the nomi
nation ofSeymour and Blair, and ex
presses, in the most unequivocal man
ner, his desire for the triumph of De
mocratic principles. Ja-t every soldier
citizen write down the following from
this noble letter and hear it about him
i against the insidious tricks of the Rad
ical Disunionists and as a political
guide during the present campaign:
"Believing, as I really do, that the
preservation of constitutional government
I depends on the success of the Democrat
ic party, in the coming election, were 1
to hesitate in its candid support, I feel
I should not only falsify my own record,
hut commit a crime against my country.''''
When the brave, the noble Hancock,
the hero of Gettysburg and the Wil
j derness, the central figure of a liun
j dred battles for the Union, the pride
and glory of the Pennsylvaniasoldiery,
declares that he would " commit a crime
against his country,'''' if he did not sup
port the Democratic nominees, in the
present crisis, who can hesitate to en
' list under our banner ? Where Is the
man who is not willing to follow where
the patriot Hancock leads?
A FEW ip iATIONS.
Will Mr. Thomas Marshall answer
these questions in the speech which we
understand he is to make here next
Saturday?
Is the Radical, or Republican, party
i u favor of Negro Su If rage ?
If not, is it opposed to Negro Suffrage?
Is it in favor of taxing government
bonds ?
Is it in favor of paying the live
twenty bonds, principal and interest,
in gold or in greenbacks ?
And will he deny that the Radical
Congress have admitted Sawyer, a
iot>el blockade-runner, to a seat in that
body,nt joe Brown,the founder of the
Andersonvitio prison, was a member
of the Convention ti m t nominated U.
S. Grant, and that nineteen negroes
were also members of that conven
tion ?
THE INQUIRER gets furious because
a telegram to the Harrisburg Patriot
stated that the Radical meeting on
Saturday week was a failure, that Gov.
Curtin did not speak nml that Mr.
Marshall, of Pittsburg, said he could
run the blackest negro in the Union
against Seymour and beat him in Alle
gheny county. That telegram stated
nothing but the truth. Considering
the efforts that were made by the Rad
icals to get up a crowd, the meeting
was a miserable, flat, contemptible
failure. If it had not been for the la
dies, boys and Democrats who attend
ed that meeting, thccourt room would
not have been half filled. As it was,
there was a beggarly account of empty
benches in one part of the room. As
for the rest, every body here knows
that Curtin did not -peak and that
Marshall made the declaration attribu
ted to him. Let the Inquirer deny it
if it dares, and we will produce the
proof. Come now, "the proof of the
pudding is the chewing of the string."
Toe the mark, Lutz!
We ask the lied ford Inquirer , Was
not Joe Brown, of Georgia, the ex
rebel Governor of that State, the found
er of Amlersonville prison, the same
man who remanded into slavery negro
soldiers who were taken prisoners by
the rebels, a member of the Chicago
Convention which nominated General
Grant ? Again, is not Sawyer, thereb
el bhx kude-runner, a Radical U. 8. Sena
tor from South Carolina? And yet
again, is not Roderick Butler, a Radi
cal member of Congress from Tennes
see, and was he not an oliicer of the
rebel army ? And still once again, did
not Mullins, another Radical Con
gressman from Tennessee, denounce,
on the floor of Congress, one of the
Radical "Congressmen from South Caro
lina, as having been a Major in the
rebel army, and as being a murderer to
boot? Now, answer these questions,
or hold your tongue about Gen. Han
cock, Gen. Franklin and other Demo
cratic general; shaking hands with
Wade Hampton and N. R. Forrest.
Talk up, or shut up.
SEYMOL'K, the experienced states
man, the upright, moral citizen, the
plain farmer of Deertield, against U. S.
Grant, inexperienced in civil affairs,
unable to utter three consecutive sen
tences in good English, accused of
drunkenness by Wendell Phillips,
Theodore Tilton and other leaders of
his own party, proved a falsifier by
five members of the cabinet, with
nothing to recommend him save the
fact that he took Richmond by sacri
ficing more men than Lee had in his
whole army. Who would not prefer
the former ?
"LET US have peace," says Grant,
with his bayonets at the throats of the
people of ten States and his hand in
thepurse.of the Northern taxpayers.

75.000 DEMOCRATIC
MAJORITY IN
KENTUCKY!
The election for Governor and other
state officers in Kentucky, came off on
Monday last, and resulted in the elec
tion of Stevenson, Democrat, over Ba
ker, Radical, by 7-~>,ooo majority!—
Louisville gave over 7,00u Democratic
majority. This state elected the Re
publican candidate for Governor in j
1863, by 20,000 majority, but he and his j
friends, Geo. D. Prentice among the
number, have since joined the Demo
crats, and hence this glorious result.
Of course the Bedford Inquirer will call
thisa"rebel" victory, but it will hard
ly claim it as a triumph for such "reb- j
els" as Joe Brown, Sawyer and Roder

We call the attention of our readers
to the able speech of Gen. Ewing, in
advocacy of the election of Seymour
and Blair, printed on our outside.
Gen. Ewing is one of the most gallant
and distinguished soldiers of the late
war, is a son of Thomas Ewing, of
Ohio, a well known Whig,and was un
til lately a "Republican."
THE Radicals the other day nomina
ted Chas. Gibbons, Esq., as their can
didate for District Attorney of Phila
delphia. The police had to be called
in to preserve order in the Convention.
The most disgraceful scenes transpired,
and no nomination could have been
made on account of the disorder, if the
police had not taken the Constitution
in hand. Gibbons will be beaten by a
large majority.
THE decision of the Supreme court
declaring the Registry law unconstitu
tional, has saved the tax-payers of tin's
count v- more than a thousand <iniu*ra!
The tendency ot all Radical legislation
is to increase the taxes instead of re
ducing them. Is it not time that the
tax-ridden people drive the Radicals
from power?
GKA.NT draws twenty thousand dol
lars per annum, as a salary for doing
nothing as "General of all our armies,"
and wants to draw twenty-five thous
and a year more for playing tool to the
Radicals.
Tin* I . S. Senators.
The Georgia Legislature, as already
stated, has elected lion. Joshua Hill
for the long term, and Dr. 11. V. Miller
for the short term, to the United (States
Senate. The National Intelligencer
says:
Mr. Hill was for several terms a mem
ber of Congress from Georgia, and re
fused to withdraw with his colleagues
in 1861. lie remained a consistent ad
herent of the federal government dur
ing the late war; was in favor of the
congressional plan of reconstruction,
but voted for Gen. John 11. Gordon for
Governor, the democratic nominee,
who was defeated by the radical car
pet-bagger, R. B. Bullock. Mr. Hill
is about fifty-five years of age, of fine
personal appear,.nee, and very clever
abilities. He lias ever been a staunch
old line whig.
Dr. Homer Virgin Miller is likewise
an old line whig, was a warm advocate
of the the election of John C. Breckin
ridge, was surgwn of the celebrated Bth
Georgia regiment, was a member of
the late reconstruction convention of
Georgia, and, life his colleague, Mr.
Hill, supported den. Gordon for Gov
ernor. Dr. Millar is a gentleman of
varied uccomplHiments, and is one of
the most accomplished orators of the
South. Dr. Mifier is about fifty years
of age.
Both of the rowdy-elected Senators
are natives of Sooth Carolina, and have
been resi ents cf Georgia from boy
hood. The election of these gentle
men is a great triumph over carpet- *
bag radicalism, uid a still greater tri- A
umph over Jot Brown and Foster\Y
Blodgett.

ATTKMPT AT BURGLARY. —About
idnight, July 22d, 1868, Mr. Quincy
"alter, clerk in the store of Schell A
"alter, at Gebhartsburg, in this conn-
, was awakened from sleep by a
ight noise at the outside door of the
•re. Quietly getting up and looking
it of the window from the second
try, he discovered a burglar at his
work, trying to force open the trans
om window above the door. .Mr.
Walter at once reached for his pistol,
and fired, when the burglar decamped.
The next morning a chip hat was
found on the steps showing that a ball
had passed along the crown and
through the brim of the hat. Traces
of blood were also found on the hat,
showing that the burglar had at least
got scraped. Mr. Walterevidently had
presence of mind enough to do the
right thing. Powder and ball are the
only proper antidotes for gentlemen
who would thus attempt a crime so
dastardly. There are strong suspicions
as to who the burglar is, but they are
prudently kept quiet for the present.—

Not only should every Democrat
aave his county newspaper, during the

wise make it a point to furnish his Re

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

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, j

A NEW REMEDY IN CONSUMPTION.—
A Physician who had Consumption for several
years, with frequent bleedings of the lungs, cured
himself with a medicine unknown to the profes
sion, when his case appeared hopeless. He is the
only physician who has used it in his own person,
or who has any knowledge of its virtues ; and he
can ascribe the degree of health he now enjoys to
nothing but the use of his medicine ; and nothing
but utter despair and entire extinction of all hope
ol recovery, together with a want of confidence in
all others induced him to hazard the experiment
To thoso suffering with any disease of the Lungs
he proffers a treatment he confidently believes
will erndicate the disease. Medicine sent by ex
press. Send for a circular or call on
