have ho doubt they will do their whole
duty. Yet we would exhort them, as
as well as all sincere and zealous Dem

in the utter rout of the radicals. To this
Gnd Democratic papers should be cir
culated freply among the people, es
pecially among those who have hith
erto voted against us. The radical pol
iticians throughout the county have
always made it a point to place their
county papers in the hands of Demo
crats. They are liberal iu their con
tributions for this purpose, and never
fail to raise a fund sufficient to pay for
the free distribution of several hun
dred copies of their papers. Fas est et

terpreted, it is proper to learn even
from the enemy. Let the people
see both shies of the questions they are
called upon to decide. They will then
be able to vote intelligently. Will
our local politicians take the hint and
profit by it ?
DECEIVED! DECEIVED! Oh, yes,
wo told you that you would he,
if you voted the ensealled "republican''
ticket. We told you tluit it was the
intention of the radical leaders to foist
Negro .Suffrage upon yon without giv
ing von an opportunity to express
your opinion in regard to it by a direct
vote. You fondly imagined that
Grant and the radicals would live up
to the Chicago platform, which pledg
ed them to leave the suffrage question
to vhe jyeople of the ''loyal" states, but
we (old you that platform was a cheat
and a snare, intended only to fool you
once more into the support of the radi
cal ticket. You were deceived, it is
true, hot yon were wilfully blind.—
Now you are undeceived. Now you
see the scheme of the radical leaders in
all its native hidoousness. Now you
behold the people robbed of the right
to control and regulate the elective
franchise in their own way, In order
that negroes may be made the voting
tools of the demagogues who at pres
ent rule the country, if you stand by
without uttering a protest against this
outrageous wrong, vohAreas guilty as
the men who have perpetrated it.
Your silence approves it. Your failure
to condemn it, makes you partieeps
criminis. And why should you In? si
lent ? Why should you not speak
out in rebuke of this infamous chi
cane? You are the men who are
c heated and fooled ; you, 44 republicans
are the victims of the fraud practised
by the radical Conspirators. You vo
ted the radical ticket, believing, as the
leaders of your party told you, that
Negro Suffrage was not in issue last
fall,and that thepcopte would be per
mitted to decide 1 hat question forthem
selves. You, then, were betrayed, and
it is for you to say whether you will
tamely brook or manfully resent the in

Snap theni asunder like a man ! Do
d emagoguch seek to cajole you? Spurn

TUB Primary Election last Saturday
proved Ihat-but one candidate can lie
nominated fhr eitch office, even though
nine good meii should ask the nomi
nation. It was a free fight in whiyl)
44 the longest pole knocked down Ibe
persimmon," ; f! , :
A nATB TICKET was nomina
ted by the DeuKJfcrats at the Primary
Election last Saturday, and much ex
cellent material wa- held in reserve for
future use. r rite defeated candidates
are honorable men, worthy of the con
fidence of the Democrats who gave
them their support; men who will not
only conscientiously live up to the
pledge they gave the party over their
own signatures to support the whole
Democratic ticket at the coiniug elec
tion, but who will show their manli
ness by doing all they can to promote
the election of their successful competi
tors. Of such stuff are proud and no
ble men made. It is ouly tlie milk
and-water sort who sour at the stom
ach after passing through a thunder
storm. Of course no man who has
asked Democrats to trust him with a
nomination, is made of that kind of
material.
THE little half-penny tricksters a
mong the radical politicians are chat
tering like so many magpies about a
dozen different schemes to help their
county ticket. They waste a great
deal of cheap sympathy on the candi
dates defeated at the Democratic Pri
mary Election. The devil always
tempts when adversity comes.
THE Primary Election on Saturday
last, showed great vitality in the De
mocracy. About 2400 votes were poll
e.i. The Radicals could muster but
1500 at their primary, with the advan
tage of polling it on the day of the
Spring Election.
PtuxciEDts, NOT MEN, should he
the watchword of the people. Think
twico before you speak once.
THE people voted the Democratic
ticket into nomination this time.
A REMINISCENCE OF THE STATE
I UEA.SL UT.
The Pittsburg Commercial, one of
the staunchest Radical papers in the
State, has been moved to indigna
tion by the method in which Repub
lican State Treasurers have been man
aging the revenues of the Common
wealth. It relates the following inci
dent as being illustrative of the mat
ter in issue:
We have an incident of the State
corruption fund—the "unexpended bal
ance" in the hands of the Stale Treas
urer. It occurred some years ago, but
whether under Democratic rule we are
not positive, but think it was during
the administration of a Republican
Treasurer. Among the members was
a devoted advocate of the Treasurer
whom it was deemed advisable to pen
sion forhisservices. TheStateTreasurer
placed twenty-five thousand dollars of
the States funds in the hands of
this Assemblyman. This money
the member put in a certain bank,
subject to the order of the Harrisburg
official, and received from the bank for
its use five percent, or twelve hundred
and fifty dollars a year. This was a
comfortable arrangement all around,
for the bank,the .State Treasurer and the
member. It shows the uses to which
the funds of the State may be diver
ted by unscrupulous officials. We do
not cite it for the purpose of throwing
any reflections upon individuals, but
merely as an argument to demonstrate
to the Commissioners of the Sinking
Fund the necessity of keeping the bal
ance down in theHtate Treasury. The
State—the people—the tax payers
should have the benefit of the interest
on the "unexpected balance," and not
the politicians.
TJie above furnishes serious subject
fir comment during the coming cam
paign, in view of the fact that the late
Radical Legislature refused to amend
the law under which such iniquities
have grown up.
THE Union League of Philadelphia,
says the Laneaslef Intelligencer , dined
and wined the negro Minister to Hay
tithe other evening. A promiscuous
assemblage of whites and blacks sat
down to a splendid dinner. The fra
ternization of the races was complete,
and the leaders of the Republican par
ty in Philadelphia could scarcely find
words sufficiently strong to express
their admiration of their dusky com
peer.-. The poet of the League recited
an ode, which fairly glowed with the
rich imagery that distinguishes the
writings of the advocates of rrjiscegna
tion. The darkeys were greatly elated
and their white associates scarcely less
so. Nobody went home until morn
The govern moot has of late been press
ing some claims against certain men
In the South who held official position
at the breaking out of the war, hut
who had not time in the sudden emer
gency to settle their accounts. The
Washington correspondent of the Bal
timore Gazelle says:
Among the "little bills" sent South,
it is understood there was oue for the
amount of $10.60 forwarded to General
Beauregard,. It is further stated that
by return mail that a voucher was re
ceived from that distinguished offi
cer for traveling pay from West Point
to New Orleans, at teu cents per mile,
as allowed by army regulations, Gen
eral Beauregard was ordered a short
time previous to the war from West
Point to the Crescent city, and for some
reason badTVegleefed fo (Raw the trav
eling pay to which he wai entitled. The
balance due the General is, therefore,
over one hundred dollars. VVid he get
the money ?

SHOCKING ACCIDENT.—A distress
ing accident, resulting in the death of
O.ie of the most worthy citizens of this
county, Cupt. Henry Bro\yn, occurred
at the stave factory of Messrs. McKaig
& Charles, Urantsville, on Thursday
last. At the time of the unfortunate
occurrence Capt. B. was engaged in
feeding the "head cutter," when the
forty inch saw with which it was sup
plied bu''st into fragments, portions of
Which struck him, carrying off both
legs below tbe knee. The machinery
was running at about the ordinary
rate of speed, but the concussion was
so great that the iron frame iu which
the saw operated WAS also shattered to
pieces and fragments of it hurled in
every direction through the building.
Some of the frame columns, several
inches in thickness, which supported
the roof, were cut off like reeds by the
flying debris. Besides the joss of the
lower limbs the thigh of the injured
man was crushed in a terrible manner.
411 Hie relief that surgical skill could
suggest was afforded, but Capt. B's
system was not sufficiently vigorous to
withstand the shock and at about 3
o'clock, P. i}., lietween four and five
hours after the accident,<Ktl, put <tn

A disgusting case of iHKIy-snatchitig
has just occurred at Williamson,
Wayne county, New York. Stephen
Burton, a respectable citizen, died oil
Wednesday last from an overdose of
chloroform, and was buried on Friday.
It was suspected (hat his grave had
been violated, and the tomb was ex

out of the coffin and mutilated and
concealed iu the woods. Dr. Brout,
of Ontaria, has been arrested, with
two students, and held to answer for

A rather, sensational story reaches us
from New York to the effect that Miss
Carrie Roberts, a beautiful blonde of
twenty, ran away last week with her
father's coachman, one Patrick O'Con
nor. They woreatonce married, but the
next morning the young lady return
ed home and said that she only wed
ded for fun. Proceedings for a divorce
are to lie instituted, but as the - only
grounds are social inequality, it
is difficult to understand how the
result desired, by one at least, can IK?
obtained.
The Pottsville Standard relates how
two daughters of a Mr. Hoy, residing
some four miles from that place, so
faithfully practiced the teachings of
their radical father as to allow them
selves to be ruined by a negro whom
their father taught them to look upon
as a man and a brother, one of whom
he married, leaving the other to suffer
for her folly.
James A. Hunter, Esq., one of the
radical members of the last legislature

the opinion of the Republican and
Democrat.

Extract from a Ictttcr frout Santa Crofx
We had wandered for
many hours through tangled forest of
Tropical shrubs and trees, some of litem
emitting a most delicious and inVigora
tlnjtoiJor, when we suddenly came up
,pu a large and well cultivated planta
tion, in the center of which were sev
eral buildings. Filtering those we found
them to lie the "prers houses," stills,
Ac., where the sugar cane is crushed
for the manufacture of St. Croix Rum.
Over 100 Ooolies were at work, and
the smell from the fermenting vats
was very exhilarating and plea
sant. We were shown through the
entire establishment, and learned that
all the Hum here produced was shipped
to Messrs. If. P. Drake & Co., New
York, to lie male into their celebrated
Plantation Bitters. The peculiar good
effects of this rum —which is the pur
est and best in the world are well
known. Not a single case of Dyspep
sia, Fever and Ague, Consumption, or
any such disease can he found on this
island, (except invalids who come here
for their health, and they are almost
always cured). Combined with Calis
aya bark, Cascarilla, and other impor
tant ingredients, this Rum l>ecomes
Plantation Bitters ; and surely no finer
Tonic and general Family remedy was
ever seen. The combination of these
Bitters was first descovered hen; many
years ago, and all the natives swear Im
plantation Bitters, and say "there is
nothing like it. Judging by the ro
bust health of the witnesses 1 am cer
tain their testimony is true. * * * *

Iu England and Germany there are
a great many mutual-benefit associa
tions in which a number of citizens a
gree to pay a certain amount of money
into a common fund that is provided, in
case of death or sickness. The society
of Odd Fellows, we believe, does this,
and we presume there are twenty oth
er associations, not quite so extensive,
that support their members and en
deavor to protect them against want.
Hut a better plan than either is to take
a policy in a well managed Life Insur
ance Company, such a one for example,
as we have in the National Life Insur
ance Company, chartered by a recent
act of Congress. This is a national in
stitution. It is not limited to any
State. Its managers are men of
widely extended reputation for sagaci
ty, honor and enterprise; they offer
special features. They have one plan
which isparticularlv desirable, namely:
The annuity plan, by which the insur
er pays a certain amount per year, and
at the end. of ten years receives
one-tenth of the policy upon which he
insures, so that during his life he has
an income, and at his death leaves
his family a provision against want.
All the policies are non-forfeiting; all
the premiums are returned at death.
There is the security of a paid up cap
ital of one million dollars. The rates
of premium are lower and the insur
ance larger than are offered by any oth
er company for the same money.—
Here is an opportunity for the farmer
to protect himself against bad
crops; for the citizen to secure
himself against tire, pecuniary trouble,
bankruptcy, misplaced confidence
in friends, war, or business disas
ter. It becomes a duty so great that to
neglect it is almost a crime.
With the advent of the "month of ro
ses" we have been once more thrown
into the season of hay making pie-nits
and pleasure excursions generally.—
The farmers are busily engaged in se
curing their early hay crops, in order
that this branch of husbandman's la
bor may be completed before the grain
harvest sets in. The young folks seek
recreation in the woods, or in fishing
parties, or in berrying excursions.—
This is also the season when early veg
etables are thrown into the market,
causing a general derangement of the
"internal improvement" of mankind,
and rendering medical aid a necessity.
Just at this time the Great Zlnguri Hit
ters step in as an antidote for the va
rious diseases arising from the too
free use of vegetables, or the numerous
ills to which far mors are ex posed during
their excessive field labor, or to which
pleasure parties are subjected by their
efforts to obtain enjoyment in the
country. A supply of Bitters should
be kept on hand for use at this partic
ular period when all are exposed to
sickness.
TUB Alabama claims are now up a

sumption, Liver Complaiut. and Dyspepsia, if ta
ken according to directions They are all three
to be taken at the same time They cleanse the
stomach, relax the liver, and put it to work : then
the appeUte becomes good; the food digests and
makes good bleed; the pittWnf begin* te grow in
flesh ; the diseased matter rjpens in the lungs,
and the patient eutgrows the disease and g. is
well. This is the only way to cure consumption
To these three medicines Dr J II Scheuck, of
; Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success iu the
treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pul
| mouie Syrup ripens the morbid matter in tbe
lungs, nataro throws it off by an easy expectora
' tion, for when thu phlegm or matter Is ripe, a
slight cough will throw it off. and the patient has
! rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup arid the
: food will make good blood
i Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon tbe liver,
removing all obstructions, relax the ducts of the
gall-bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver
is soon relieved ; the stools will show what tbe
Pills can do ; nothing has ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison which is very dan
gerous to use unless with great care), that will
unlock the gall-bladder and starts the secretions
of the liver like Schenck's Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative, and the Alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made of, assists tbe
stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made
into good blood without fernfentation or souring
in the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not eure
consumption is, they try to do too much ; they
| give medicine to stop the cough, to stop chills, to
stop night sweats, hectic fever, and by so doing
they derange the whole digestive powers, locking
up the secre'ions, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Sehenck, in his treatment, does not try to
stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or lever. Re
move the cause, and they will all stop of tbeir
own accord. No one can be cured of Consump
tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Cataarh, Can
ker, Ulcerated Throat, unless tbe liver and stom
ach are made healthy.
If a person has Consumption, ofcourse the lungs
in some way are diseased, cither tubercles, ah
seesscs, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or
the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast de
caying In such cases what must be done ? It
is not only tbe lungs that are wasting, bnt it is
the whole bpoly. 'Tbe stomach and liver have losi
their power to make blood out of food. Now the
only chance is to take Schenck's three medicines,
which will bring np a tone to the stomach, the
patient will begin to want food, it will digest easi
ly and make good blood : then the patient begins
! t.t gain in flesn, and as soon as the body begins to
grow, the lungs commence to heal up, and the pa
tient gets fleshy and well. This is the only wny
to c u re consuin prion.
When there is uo lung disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Rills are sufficient without
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills
freely in all billious complaints, as they are per
i fectly harmless
Dr. Schenck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years past, and now weighs 225
pounds, was wasted away to a mere skeleton, in
the very last stage of Pulmonary Consumption,
bis physicians having pronounced his ease hope
less and abandoned him to his fete. He was cured
by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery
many thousands similarly afflicted have used Dr.
| Schenck's preparations with tho same remarkable
success. Full directions accompanying each,
make it not absolutely necessary to personally sae

examined and for this purpose he is professional
