The alsrve returns are considered re
liable. A most gallant tight has been
made by the Democracy of this Con
gressional district, and esjieeially by
the Democrats of Bedford county.
The meagre majority by which Cessna
lias squeezed through, cost that delec
tahle specimen of modern Radicalism,
at least SIO,OOO, in round numbers, it
is a shame that such a fellow should
represent the people of the Sixteenth
District in Congress, and that he
should become that representative
through the influence of money. The
Democrats who voted for him can re
pent of their error at their leisure.
THE KEMI'I.T.
At the present writing we are unable
to say positively how the State has
gone. We believe it to be very close.
The Radicals claim it by a small ma
jority. Alh'gheny county gives about
8,000 Radical majority; Ruicaster
county about 5,800; Krie 2,900; Law
rence 1,9* Kb Philadelphia is reported
at S,<M)O liemocratic. Tlit* Democratic
candidate for Mayor has been elected
in Philadelphia. York gives 3100
Democratic; Berks 6,500; Wayne 7<io.
No matter what may lie the result, it
is our duty and the duty of every
Democrat, to renew the effort to re
deem the country from Radical thral
dom. 1a;1 us prepare for the battle on
the first Tuesday of November and
vote for the principles we so dearly
prize. Let us do our duty and corhmit
the rest to God.
CAKE IIETEATED.
Another Radical Cake is dough.—
Oil. Conner, Dem., is elected in the
Lebanon and Schuylkill Congressional
district, over 11. L. Cake, present mem
ber, and Radical candidate.
The announcement that ''lion. Peleg
B. Pilkins, who has for twenty years
occupied a position in one of our lead
ing pjblie institutions, haw come out
for Grant and Colfax," created intense
Radical joy in Indiana, until it trans
pired that the Penitentiary was the
••institution" in which Piikins had
held a position for so long, and from
which he had just "come out."

The Grand Ix-mocratie Mas- Con
vention in this place, on yesterday,
exceeded in point of numbers and en
thusiasm any thing of the sort ever
witnessed in Bedford. The procession
numbered 1-51 vehicles and 1010 persons
by actual count. There were counted
1M sides, some vehicles, which did
not join in the parade. It is estimated
that about 1,000 people were present.
Capt. Thos. 11. Ljons acted as Chief
Mar-ha 1, with Serg't Phil. Huzzard,
Phil. Leonard, John H. Cook, Josiah
Haley, Harrison Lehman, Wm. Ad
am-, James, Sill, P. G. Morgart, and
others who.se names have not been re
ported to us, as assistants. The pro
cession wound about the town, until
it extended almost completely around ;
it. The delegation from the upper end
contained a wagon, tastefully decorat
ed, in which were seated thirty seven
beautiful young ladies, clad in white, ;
representing all the States. This wag
on was drawn by twenty white horses, j
on which were . eated twenty voters;
as riders. This delegation alone equal- j
d the whole Radical procession of 1
last Tuesday. The delegation from j
Colerain was a very fine one, and also
had a wagon beautifully decorated, in I
which were -eated the prettiest girls j
of thai region representing the several ;
states. The eastern delegation was a
grand success. The Democrats of
Bloody Run and vicinity are a gallant
band, and always up and doing. One
of the banners bore this device—"Cess
na's last pass—On the Salt River line,"
and on one wagon there was a dilapi
dated bureau from which protruded
the heads of a number of small darks.
This created much amusement. Along
the whole line there was the greatest
enthusiasm, cheer after cheer going up,
as the procession passed along its route.
After the parade the multitude as
sembled in the square, and the meeting
was organized by the appointment of
that veteran Democrat, JOHN Mo
CLIXTOCK, .Sr., as President, with a
large number of Vice Presidents and
Secretaries, for whose names, we are
sorry to say, we have 110 room in thi
n-port. GOV. THOMAS SWANN, of
Baltimore, was then introduced to the
meeting, and delivered a most power
ful and convincing speech. GEN.
RICHARD COULTER was next an
nounced. The General made a very
able and eloquent speech, which was
listened to with great pleasure and ap
probation by the vast assemblage. Gen.
Coulter is one of the most distinguished
soldiers of the country. He will cast
his first Democratic vote this fall. The
meeting then adjourned with loud and
prolonged cheers for Seymour, Blair,
Kimmell and the whole Democratic
ticket.
A meeting was held in the Court
House at night, which was also ad
dressed by Gen. Coulter and Gov.
Swarm.
UOOBBAI K !
The Bedford Inquirer of last week
in a flamii.g announcement, illus
trated with flag and cannon, announc
ed that the Radicals have gained "iO.UOO
in Connecticut!" A more bare-faced,
shameless, atrocious, miserable and
contemptible lie, was never before set
up in type. The very contrary is the
case. The Democrats have carried a
majority of the towns in Connecticut
for tf 10 first time in 15 years. They
have made gaiusin all the large cities
and towns except New Haven, where
the Democratic majority is so large
that it was not necessary to poll inoie
than half the vote, and yet the Demo
crats carried the city by 1,000 majority.
Mark you, this was only an election
for town officers, corresponding to the
Spring elections in Pennsylvania, and
yet Connecticut shows a Democratic
majority of 5,000, which is a guiu of
:I,OUO over last Spring. Cutis is a liar
and is trying to infuse a little spirit in
to his party, by making false state
ments in regard to this little town
election. "Drowning men will catch
at straws."
We give the latest telegraphic reports
from Connecticut as follows:
(Special Pispateh to the World |
NEW HAVEN, Conn., October 5.
The town election to-day through
out the State, with few exceptions,
show Democratic gains on the vote of
last spring. New Haven gives a hand

the vote polled. Hartford gives near

hamstead, the hot-bed of Radicalism,
goes Democratic for the first time, in
Norwich the Democracy made no effort
except in the Third Ward, where an
animated contest was maintained, and
£i)c (snjrf> Ifce&forß# 9*+
the Ward goes Democratic by 11 ma
jority. The general results are more
than*satisfactory to the Democracy, and
indicate that the Slate will cast her elec

an increased vote over English's ma
jority of last spring. The Jackson

fall, and all they wanted now. They
will give2,soo in November. In towns

Old CONNECTICUT is right side up!
According to a report sent us by the
Associated Pre--, at the town elections
held yesterday the Democracy carried
the State by .5,(8(0 majority! This is
3,(881 lietter than last Spring, when we
doubled our majority of the year lie
fore.
Our own special despatches, which
are very full, hardly justify the hope of
so large a majorsty as the report to
which the Associated Press gives cur
rency; but it is certain that we gain
everywhere with the exception of
Stamford and one or two other small
places were our friends were caught
napping. So hurrah for CONNECTI
CUT! At her present rate of progress
she will be the banner State of the De
mocracy. Old KENTUCKY must look
out for her laurels.
Now for PENNSYLVANIA. If our
friends there do but half as well, HO

I *lll EAIJEEI'IIIA, Oct. —The receje
tion of General M'Clellan was the
grandest, most enthusiastic and heart
felt ovation ever tendered to any indi
vidual in Philadelphia. At an early
hour the various societies, clulis and
delegations began to assemble on
Broad street, and as the hour of noon
drew nigh that vast thoroughfare pre
sented a scene once witnessed never to
be forgotten. As far as the eye could
reach could lie seen a vast sea of peo
ple, surging and rolling in mighty
riumliers.
The following organizations partici
pated : The Young Men's Keystone
club, Americus dub, Fox Campaign
club, Hickory clubs of the Twelfth
ward, Sheppard Campaign clubs, M'-
Cleilan's Guards, composed of soldiers
and sailors, and the various Democratic
ward organizations. A butchers' col
umn of about seven hundered men
was a prominent feature of the pro
cession.
The Seven divisions were as fol
lows: First, a mounted cavalcade
headed by the Soldiers' City Execu
tive Committee. The Second, a guard
ofhonor, the reception committee, the
State committee and invited guests.—
The Third, organizations of soldiers
and sailors from distant States and
from Philadelphia. The Fourth, or
ganizations of soldiers and sailors in
Philadelphia. The Fifth, firemen.—
The Sixth, Civic clubs and associations
south of Market street, and the Sev
enth, Civil clubs and association North
of Market street, all under command
of Gen. M'Candless, Grand Marshal.
At about half-past one the immense
procession took up its line of inarch
over the following route:—Counter
marched on liroad street to Spring
Garden, up Spring Garden to Eigh
teenth, down Eighteenth to Spruce,
down Spruce to Broad, up Broad to
Chestnut, down Chestnut to Fourth
when the divisions moved to the right
arid left, and then dismissed. The pro
cession escorted Gen. M'Clellan in a
barouche to the Continental Hotel,
where he received them from the bal
cony.
Chestnut street never before present
ed such an animated scene. As the
procession moved past the hotel, cheer
after cheer went up for Little Mac, and
greetings of welcome went forth from
every lip. Gn the banners of the diff
erent organizations were displayed
mottoes expressive of the great regard
and high estimation in which the he
ro of Autietam is held. "Give us
back our old commander." "The sol
dier in war and the citizen in peace,"
"Honor to whom honor is due." "Wel
come Little Mac," and other mottoes
of like character were greeted with ap
plause on all sides. It was dark before
the procession had all passed the hotel.
It occupied two hours and a half in
passing a given point, and was eoin
jiosed of not less than 20,000 men.
At the Continental hotel Gen. M'-
Clellan spoke as follows :
SPEECH OF OKX. M'CEEELAX.
M Y FELLOW CITIZENS : Vou have to
day honored me with your presence.
Will you accept my earnest and heart
felt thanks. All that I have to offer
you in return for this honor is that I
will remember this occasion so long as
memory serves me. My comrades, 1
can receive no more welcome greeting,
even in this my native city, than the
sound of the same cheers that have so
often met me iu the camp, on the
march and upon the field of battle.—
They recall a strange and most eventful
history. Hereon this spot, filled with
the earliest and peaceful associations of
my childhood, they arouse stern and
stiring memories of a chequered ca
reer. The place where I stand recalls
to my mind the quiet days of peaceful
life. The faces I seeand the voices 1 hear
carry me back to the realities of war,
and the battle scenes of your suffering-,
fortitude and glory. Upon ihe days
that tried men's souls these shouts
were an earnest that 1 could implicitly
rely upon the heroism and devotion of
army. They always evinced that love
and sympathy that united us. When
I parted from you on that sad Novem
ber day that none of us can ever forget,
your voices showed to me that under
new commanders you would lose none
of your ancient heroism. Voices ech
oed from Malvern,South Mountain,and
Antietam certain guarantees for your
conduct at Fredericksburg, Chancel iors
ville, Gettysburg, the Wilderness and
crowning victory of Richmond. Sol
diers, whether of my own old army of
the Potomac or of the gallant armies
of the West, 1 thank you, from the
depths of a soldier's heart, for this
welcome. So long as I am upon this
earth i cannnot forget the bonds that
unite us to the memory of our fallen
comrades, of perils shared in common,
and the great love and confidence you
have given me. Come what may, J
am sure that iu tiie future, as iu the
past, we will ever bo found side by side
in war as then, in peace as now, for
one country.

We have somewhere read the state
ment of premiums paid out in one
year by a fln-t-clasS Like Ixsckaxce
Com pax v. It was a suggestive and in
teresting table. There were persons
in all classes of life, and from every
part of the country. There was the
jKKir man, whose scanty earnings only
permitted him to pay a policy of five
hundred dollars. Well, death tame to
hi in, and ins teat 1 of the Almshouse for
his little ones, there was something
with which to clothe the balies and
send the eldest boy to school. There
was the seamstress who hati saved e
nough to insure a thousand dollars for
for the poor old mother. She dropped
into the grave—faded by hard work,
we presume, but she left something 1 be
hind to lighten the dark and declining
days of the one she most dearly loved.
There was the young business man
who took a little portion of his profits
and secured an Insurance of SIO,OOO.
The speedy messenger called him in
the begining of his career, but enough
was behinnd to enable his family to
live plainly and comfortably. This ta
ble was the record of well-recompensed
prudence. No human foresight can a
void business disaster, at times, nor
postpone the hour of death. When we
see how easy it is for every man to put
away something against a rainy day,
we feel that it is almost criminal to
neglect it. Especially is this so when
we have a company like the National
Life Insurance Company, whose adver
tisement iselsewhere published. I lere
is a company with a million of dollars
paid-up capital. Its directors are men
of national reputation for integrity and
honor. It presents every feature of
of the best insurance companies, to- ,
gether with new features which we
find in no other company. Reader, for
a little over four cents a day you can
insure your wife and children the pay
ment of a thousand dollars, if you
should die in a mouth. Let your days
be long or short, you have no right to
neglect this precaution.

MR. EDlTOß:—Several of your cor
respondents, very old and respectable
no doubt, seem to be wonderfully ex
ercised as to the origin of our PLANTA
TION HITTERS. So long as these Bit
ters are all that we represent them to
be, we do not know that it makes any
difference from whom they come, or
from whence they originated ; but for
the information of the public generally,
and old Capt. Wentz in particular, we
will say that he told the truth, and
that these Bitters originated iu the
West India Islands—that many of the
ingredients have been favorably used
for over a century, now, and our own.
The rum and other materials are the
same, and as your correspondent says,
a better Bitters and Tonic is not made.
We recommend them particularly for
dyspeptics, fever and ague, debility,
loss of appetite, and in all cases where
a tonic and stimulant is required.
