derstanding tbcm, they reflect upon their duty
in the premises and then discharge what they be-
Here to be that duty when they come to cast

We respectfully ask the active men of our party
to get up clubs for the campaign at every post
office in the county. In no other way can the good
cause be more effectively supported than by the
circulation of Democratic newspap .rs It ought
to be an easy matter to raise a club of twenty at
any post office. Address Msters A Mesgjl,

THE INN IE.
The radical leaders have thrus', upon
the people the issue involved in the
Fifteenth Amendment. They have
done this despite their pledges to the
contrary. They have done it in defi
ance of the wishes of a large majority
of their own party.
It is now certain that the Amend
ment cannot be ratified this year.
Therefore it is in the power of the peo
ple to defeat it, if they. will. A Gov
ernor and Legislature pledged to the
repeal of the act of last winter ratify
ing the Amendment, can be elected in
this State, if the question at issue be
properly placed before the people. But
this is the only hope of cutting the
chains which now bind Pennsylvania
to Negro Suffrage. If a democratic
Governor and a democratic Legislature
bo not elected this fall, the act of last
winter ratifying the Amendment will
be allowed to remain undisturbed and
the Keystone State will have sold her
birthright forever. Now, then, is the
time to strike for deliverance. Next
year it will be too late. At present
*we are still free to control the subject
of suffrage in our own way. A year
hence, if we fail to assert our rights
now. we shall be tit-d hand and foot.
Let every man who is opposed to the
adoption of the infamous Fifteenth
A inendment remember this and act
accordingly.
The worst feature of this pet meas
ure of the radicals, is not Negro Suf
frage ]>er se, but it is the surrender of
the right to regulate the elective fran
chise which is demanded of the peo
ple. The Amendment provides that
Congress shall have power to enforce
its provisions. This tukesfrom 'he peo
pfe all cotitrol of the elective franchise
and rests it exclusively in Congrats.
Now, the elective franchise is the
basis of our republican institutions.
Therefore, the safety of our whole sys
tem is entrusted to Congress, and that
body can, at its pleasure, preserve, or
overthrow, our form of Government.
From this it will appear, too, that
whilst it is pretended that the Fif
teenth Amendment extends political
rights, it really curtails and destroys
them. Gf what use is the ballot to the
Negro, or any body else, forsooth, if
Congress may direct how that ballot
shall be cast?
Such, then, is the momentous issue
forced upon the people by the radical
leaders. It must be met ;it must be
discussed ; it must be pressed home to
the judgment and conscience of the
voter. Shall the elective franchise be
saved to the people, in its purity t Who
is the miserable wretch that dares to
say, No!
The Radical love for the maimed sol
dier is manifested everywhere. The
mongrel legislature of New York late
ly refused an appropriation to the Sol
diers' Home, and in consequence it
had to be closed. James Longstreet, the
great executive and strategic General
of the Confederate army, is well provi
ded for by the "loil" worshippers, but
the poor maimed soldier, who was
promised everything, is left to enjoy
the laurels of a lost limb and a broken
constitution, and to grind out a liveli
hood upon the hand-organ. This is
mongrelisrn; and the "negro fought
bravely."
THE STAKE IS TOO WHEAT.
A Governor and Legislature are to
be chosen at the coming election. —
There is good reason to hope that
the day of democratic success is ai>oiit
to dawn. The passage of the Fifteenth
Amendment, by Congress, its ratifi
cation by the snap judgment taken by
the last legislature, the excesses and
corruptions of the radical party, the
failure of Grant's administration to
restore tranquility and prosperity to the
country, all conspire to strengthen the
democracy. We must ami will triumph
at the next election. The people cannot
afford another defeat. The stake is too
great; it is that of the preservation of
the freedom and purity of the elective
franchise. Therefore, it becomes our
tluty to act in concert and to frown up
on every effort to stir up dissensions in
our own ranks. Selfish interests pale
into insignificance before the safety of
the momentous trust given us by God
Himself, Free (internment. We cannot
permit the grievances and interests of
any man to outweigh in our estima
tion the grievances and interests of a
whole people.
Xo! the stake is too great. Our du
ty bids us harmonize. What if by our
bickerings anil disputes over matters
purely personal, we should throw a
way the chance which Providence
seems to have given us for the redemp
tion of the State Legislature! How
would we not blame ourselves in the
future if by our own wilfulness this
God-given opportunity should be lost!
In order that the act ratifying the Fif
teenth Amendment may be repealed,
we must send a majority of democrats
to the next legislature. This can be
done with the aid of our own district.
We have a fair prospect of carrying
this district for both Senator and Rep
resentatives. But if men who failed
to get nominations at the recent pri
mary elections insist on doing nothing
but uttering complaints about their
own failure and threatening to oppose
the ticket, can we expect to succeed ?
It is the business of every democrat to
speak out for the ticket; the man who
speaks against it places himself outside
the pale of the party. We must have
harmony in our organization. He who
persists in making strife, is against us
and will be placed where he belongs.
Close up the ranks! The stake is too
great to deal tenderly with the un
faithful.
THE City Council of Washington,
composed in good part of negroes, pro
poses to take what Ben Wade calls a
"jump ahead," by repealing the license
of all hotels which refuse to receive
and accommodate white and black
guests on equal terms. We trust our
Radical friends will not complain a
bout this for it is but the natural and
logical result of their teachings and
preachings during the past few years.
When Democrats predicted such things
as the inevitable consequences of "equal
rights," they were sneered at and de
nounced. And the end is not yet. It
will not be long before the negroes
throughout the South, where they
have the power, will take still bolder
steps to break down the barriers which
nature and custom have raised up be
tween the two races. During the
French Revolution, when the Abbe
Sieyes expressed his astonishment at
some measure proposed in the Assem
bly, Mirabeau turned to him and said,
"My dear Abbe, you have loosed the
bull ;do you think he will use his
horns?" The Radicals have "loosed"
the African bull, and the manner in
which he will "use his horns" pretty
soon will astonish most people.— Titus
ville Star.
UNANIMITY is power! Let us teach
the Radicals this lesson. They are
watching, as eagles do for their prey,
to seize upon weak points in our or
ganization. They are striving to get
up independent candidates, in order to
disorganize the democracy. Are you
so easily imposed upon, fellow Demo
crats? We think not. Let us show
them a united front. The stake is too
great to risk defeat by divisions among
ourselves. Let true men speak out
for the ticket!
ENGLISH and French ministers in
Washington are in a fair way to be
considered disloyal, as they refuse to
receive at their residences, on terms of
social equality, the recently elected
negro officials of Washington, on the
ground that they were but a short
time since their barbers, boot-blacks,
etc. Such squeamishness as this on
the part of our foreign ministers is cer
tainly ridiculous and will giveeurreney
to the report that they are copperhead
islily inclined. You must reconstruct,
gentleman, or resign and let some one
take your place more loyally inclined.
TJJE North is not "educated up" to
the point of conferring the most respon
sible places of trust and honor upon the
negroes ; but it isn't thought necessary
to educate the South in this respect :
black "Senators," and "Councilmeu,"
and "Postmasters," and "Assessors,"
etc., are forced upon her people. And
yet the Radical papers talk about the
great advance in "moral" ideas! Just
as though there could be any moral ad
vance in compulsion.
IPjc 33?TJfo?ti sSftiforSL p#r
THE leading Radical organs in this
country are much exercised at the
manner in which the French Govern
ment controlled the recent election.
And yet there were no negro riots, no
hayonet guarded polls, no ballot box
packing, none of the controlling infiu
ences that the sympathetic Radicals
think uothing of using to gain apoliti
cal victory in this land of the free.
GKAXT hasjust appointed a negro to
a lucrative office in Texas over a dozen
white Union soldiers who were appli
cants for the position. That sort ot re
cognition of the claims of the soldiers
by the President delights the Radical
newspapers. The Philadelphia Morn
ing Post says;
One of the best features of Grant's
administration is the numerous ap
pointments of colored men to office in
the South.
There are so few things about Grant's
administration capable of eliciting
praise, even from Radical sources, that
we are scarcely surprised at the above
paragraph. He has proven to be a
wretched failure.— Lancaster Intelligen
cer.
The great hum-bug of the day, is the
great "Peace Jubilee," now holding at
Boston. President Grant is there, and
hundreds of others who made fortunes
by the war, and by robbing the Treas
ury. They succeeded in producing ter
rible discord all over the country by
their war-cry; they will hardly do bet
ter by croaking "peace."
The City Councils of Washington
have passed an ordinance imposing a
fine upon the proprietor of any place
of amusement, who will refuse admit
tance to the negro to those parts of the
house occupied by white persons.
Pew holders of churches—not as good
as Ford's theatre—will be the next to
be forced open to the negro.
W. B. STOKES, the man who sold the
last negro slave that was sold in Ten
nessee, and who was one of the first
to raise a rebel regiment to "strike at
the life of the nation," is now the Rad
ical candidate for Governor. Verily,
he is a fit candidate of the party that
supports him.
THE Registry Law has been declared
unconstitutional by JudgeSharswood,
sitting at Nisi Prius, on Saturday last.
An injunction has been granted to re
strain the Aldermen of Philadelphia
ftom proceeding with the registry of
voters.
THE "good times" farmers and oth
ers were to be blessed with, for voting
the mongrel ticket, seems to be the
good times they are having, trying to
raise money enough to pay the radical
taxes levied upon them.
Six of the worst roosters of the Phil
adelphia delegation in the Legislature,
have been renominated by the loil men
of Philadelphia. A portion of the
Radical press in that city squarely bolt
these nominations.
FLORIDA has ratified the Fifteenth
Amendment, and all the Radical news
papers in the country are rejoicing
that another step has been taken to
ware's negro equality.
THE N. Y. Observer, a leading Pres
byterian organ, advertises for "an
honest man's party." Let it join the
Democratic party, ami shun the party
of political clergy.
ANOTHER of the Washburn family
is to have an office, the radical conven
tion of Vermont having nominated
Peter T. Washburn for Governor.
PHILADELPHIA.
f Correspondence of the Bedford Gazette. j
PHIL'A., June 17th, 1869.
The most imposing pageant
ever witnessed in any city, we pre
sume, was that of the Masonic Knights
Templars on last Tuesday. The scene
on Chestnut street was truly inspir
ing. Every flag-staff displayed colors in
honor of the event: every window and
available space where a good
look out could be had, was filled by an
anxious and expectant crowd. We
had recently seen the grand parade of
the Odd Fellows which was elegant
and great; and also the Red Men which
surpassed the former in the richness of
their banners, &c.. but the whole was
eclipsed by the Knights Templar, an
order dating its existence from the
Second Crusade, and which was the
finest and best disciplined part of the
army. The parade formed on Broad
street and at 9 A. M., took up the line
of march down Chestnut. The music
of the bands, the brilliant display of
banners with Grecian, Latin and Mal
tese crosses in red, the beautiful and
chaste uniform, chapeaus, red belts
and white silk sashes bordered with
black, dangling swords and a black
broad-cloth dress, the prancing of flery
steeds, boquets of rare flowers showered
on the line, and the glitter of orna
ment everywhere, all constituted a
scene which it Is impossible to forget,
and which reminded the student of
history of the days of Godfrey and Bri
an de Bois*Guilbert. The parade was
perfect. No better disciplined men
ever trod the cobble stones of Phila
delphia. At the word of command
the different Cornmanderies formed
squares, triangles and crosses. The
aids were mounted on richly capara
soned chargers attracting general no
tice. A finer body of men, in all that
constitutes physical perfection and the
true gentleman was never seen.
We have only time to notice that
after the parade the Knights assembled
in Horticultural Hall, where an ad
dress of welcome was extended by
Hon. Richard Vaux, after which a
masterly oration, by Prof. Allen, of Gl
rard College, was delivered. At night,
we are informed, a ball in the. Acade
my of Music, concluded the festivities.
Seven thousand persons participated
in the amusement. All the ladies were
in full ball costume and the Knights
in their elegant uniform. Taken all in
all, as a civic demonstration, it was in
comparable. As we did not witness
the closing scenes we can only say
Good [K)night!
and hope their swords may ever be
drawn, where need be, in defense of
so good and great a cause as Ancient
Freemasonry.
ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS.
West roll thro' the Academy every few
days. It is a pleasant place to rest from
heat and bustle, and let your thoughts
go out on the grand scenes brushed
out of ideal land. The great pictures
are West's "Death on the pale horse"
and "Christ rejected." You have
heard so m uch of and probably seen
them, that we save some ink there.
Its a dreamy, classic place, that musty
old Academy, and you can feast your
eyes on a sunset scene by Weber, and
imagine you are in the woods, and
hear the mournful notes of the dove
calling her mate to rest as the last rays
of the sun fall on the tops of the trees.
It is a sweet scene and recalls thoughts
of home and times long gone. We
like Weber because he touches the
heart so tenderly. I'ut you need not
fear. I shall tire you by going thro'
the whole building and dragging you
along by the coat collar and create a
scene like that of the Centaurs. But
we do wish you with us one half day
and could leisurely enjoy the grand
creations of poetic minds: for there
is pleasure in a change from such grand
scenes as you enjoy to these where im
agination lends a softer hue and tinge,
and where you have not your reverie
interrupted by a bug traveling up your
trousers' leg or a gnat buzzing in your
ear. Give me a seat with my sweet
heart in the Academy, in preference
to the annoyances of a chat under a
tree—just about now. Please loan me
your fan. Did you Inquire whether
we had any
STRAWBERRIES !
Yes, some ! I like the country for one
thing—they raise all the strawberries.
I like the city for another —here they
eat them. They are abundant, very
fine and cheap, so that all can enjoy
them from seven cents a quart up to
the Agriculturist at twenty. About
five of these will fill a tin. I dropped
into the Continental with some such
with a friend. Had them smothered in
ice cream, so they would go down
easy. Right before me, would you be
lieve ! was my inamorata sitting. Did
you ever feel you heart in your throat?
Well, suppose you had just started
down a strawberry as large as a toma- I
to ! How would you feel then ? l)o I
you know Josh Billings? He must
have had a dish of those same. We
will let him dilate while you and I
take a few more.
Cherrys is good, but they are tew
much like sucking a marble with a
handle tew it. Peaches iz good, if u
don't get enny ov the pin feathers in
tew yure lips. Watermelons will suit i
ennybody who is satisfied with half- ]
sweetened drink ; but the man who
ken eat strawberrys besprinkled with
crushed sugar and bespattered with
kream (at sumboddy else's expense,)
and not lay his hand on his stummuck,
and thank the author uv strawberry
and stummucks, and the phellow who
pays for the strawberrys, iz a man
with a worn out conscience—a man
whose mouth tastes like a hole in the
ground, and don't care what goes
down it.
We have now another gush of hot
weather, and our denizens are packing
for watering places. As ever,
LINDEN.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Sc he oek ' s Pulmonic Syrup,
Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills, will cure Con
sumption, Liver Complaint, and Dyspejaia, if ta
ken according to directions They are all three
to be taken at the same time. Tbey cleanse the
stomach, relax the liver, and put it to work : then
the appetite becomes good , the food digests and
makes good blood : the patient begins to grow in
flesh : the diseased matter ripens in the lungs,
and the patient ontgrows the disease and £tts
well. This is the way to cure consumption
To these three medicines Dr. J H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pul
monic Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the
lungs, nature throws it off by an easy expectora
tiou, for when the 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 and the
food wiil make good blood
Scbenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the 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 the
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 Scbenck's Mandrake Pills
Liver Complaint is one of the most prominent
causes of Consumption.
Scbenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative, and the Alkali in the Seaweed,
which this preparation is made of. assists the
stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made
into good blood without fermentation or souring"
in the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not cure
consumption is, they try to d<> 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'ioDS, and eventually the patieut
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 their
own accord No one can be cured of Cousump.
tion, Liver Cooudaint, Dyspepsia, Cataarh, Can
ker,? leerated Throat, unless the liver and stom
ach are made healthy.
If a person has Consumption, ofeourse the lungs
in some way are diseased, either tubereles, ah
scesses, 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 the lungs that are wasting, but it is
the whole ty)dy. The stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of food. Now the
only chance is to take Schenek's three medicines,
which will bring up a tone to the stomach, the
patient will begin to want food, it will digest easi
fy and make good blood : then the patient begins
to gain in flesh, 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 way
to cureconsuinption.
When there is no lung disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenek's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient without
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Pills
freely in all billious complaints, as they are per
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,
his physicians having pronounced his case hope
less and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured
by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery
many thousands similarly afflicted have used Dr
Schenek's preparations with tho same remarkable
success. Full directions accompanying each,
make it not absolutely necessary to personally see
Dr. Schenck. unless the patients wish their lungs
examined and for this purpose he is professional
