John W. Geary hns been nMdeeted
Governor of Pennsylvania. it is true
his majority is only about a toes
of 14,099 on his majority three years
ago which was 17,000; and it is also
true that the 4,4o9majority, ciaimedto
have been cast for him in Philadelphia
(without which he is defeatedj was ob
tained by throwing out return- from
Democratic precincts and other fraudu
lent-practices; yet the shame is none
the hs-.s tliat litis great Commonwealth
of ours should deliberately endorse this
corrupt executive and continue him
throe years longer in the office which he
has disgraced. The white voters of
Pennsylvania, tlie "superior race," as
we were wont to name them, the in
telligent, honest, thinking masses, as
we once candidly believed them to be,
have done this thing and have done
it, too, with due premeditation and
malice aforethought. They have vot
ed themselves no better than negroes
ud by their ballots have pronounced
John W. Geary quite good enough to
he their Governor. Well, perhaps,
they know la-st about these matters.
We take (heir decision as correct, and
abide it as cheerfully as possible. If
we should hereafter insist on it that
they were right in deciding themselves
no better than negroes and that Geary
is entirely lit to govern them, we hope
they wili riot quarrel with their own
decision. And just here let us say that
the men who voted for John W.Geary,
knowing him to be a corrupt and un
worthy man, as well as those who are,
in principle, opposed to the Fifteenth
Amendment and yet voted the Radical
State and legislative tickets, are less
entitled, morally speaking, to the elec
tive franchise, than the humblest Af
rican in Red ford county. They are
negroes with a white skin. We have
had enough of tlieir duplicity and hy
pocrisy. 1f we are to deal with neg
roes, give us the black ones.
Nor are the Democrats without
blame. Their indifference and luko
wariiiness alone were sufficient to bring
defeat to their ticket. Get us not be
misunderstood. There he good and
true and steadfast men who never (lag
in their efforts to give success to our
party.. To these all honor for their for
titude and fidelity ! But thousands
of Democrats failed to attend the late
election, because they downed the con
test a hopeless one, others did not vote
because the county tickets did not
please them, and others still occupied
themselves in electioneering for candi
dates on the Radical local tickets and
thus distracted and confused the ranks
in which they claimed to tight. Will
Democrats never learn wisdom ? Will
they forever lie tools and catspawsfor
their political enemies? Pan we not
fight one solitary battle with our col
umns unbroken, our forces united, har
monious and determined on victory?
Are we to he always beaten by our own
dissensions and di visions ? These ques
tions may he asked with propriety of
Home our of own Bedford county Dem
ocrats, hut they apply elsewhere as
well. The Philadelphia Democracy,
especially, should ponder them.
Not quite successful! No! Shams
on the laggards who might havegiven
us victory! Shame on the men who
vote at primary elections and then holt
the nominations if they do not suit
them! Rut let us have patience.
Time makes all tilings even. Wehave
gained 14,000 since the last gubernato
rial election, in spite of the laggards
and the malcontents. Lotus perfect
our organization, and another year
will bring usatriumph, brilliant, com
plete and overwhelming.

The Board of Radical Return Judges
in Philadelphia, have been detected in
the commission of the most outra
geous frauds. By the most unblush
ing rascality the real majority has been
..swelled several thousand votes, and a
Democratic Stale Senator, ami a Dem
ocratic Assernblymiiii counted out.
An account of their performances is
published elsewhere. The Philadelph
ia lAtlyer, an independent and reliable
neutral paier, thus condemns these
out rages in an editorial:
Every citizen should read the report
published this morning of the proceed
ings in the ( ourt of Common Pleas
yesterday, before Judge Allison, con
cerning the proctsslings of the Return
Judges of the elections, and the report
t ,f The proceedings of the Return
Judges themselves. They are of a
character to demand serious attention.
It there appears that a return tiled in
the office ol the Prothonotarv of the
Common Plena was mutilated and fal
sified; that another return was stolen
from the custody of the Return Judge,
and that these two crimes eventuated
in giving at certificate of election to a
candidate for the Thirteenth Legisla
tive District who was not elected ; that
there were well supported charges that
election papers in the First Senatorial
District were falsified; that Judge Al
lison was obliged to denounce from the
bench the aerioua crime of falsifyingp.nd
mutilating the records of the Court—
records ujwm which the safety of ever
v man's interests and property depends;
iliat a writ Issued from the Court and
directed to the Return Judges was re
| silted by violence and that Judge Alti
-1 sm was obliged to authorize the Sher
iff, to summon a sufficient force to ex
ecute the writ; and that notwithstand
ing all Judge Allison said as to the du
ty of the Return Judges to do every
! thing necessary to insure an "honest
j return," they did nothing towards get
ting any legislative return from the
Seventeenth Ward, of inquiring into
I the falsification of the return there or
in the first Senatorial district. What
Judge Allison -aid of some of these
proceedings is what every honest citi
zen -hould say of all, that they entlan
| srer the very foundations oi society,
i Twice within two days the writs issued
by the Court were disregarded and re
; si-ted by violence by election officers,
j There can be no safety or good order
where the supremacy of the law ami
j the Courts are defied ir< this way, and
these actual wrongs should Ire visited
with the same universal censure that
was visited on the threats of violence
> ii-ed by another official previous to the
election, and all citizens should en
courage the Courts, in any efforts to
have such wrongs set right, as well as
to have the perpetrators punished.
The Radical papers of the city do not
dare to defend or extenuate these out
rages. Even Forney's I'rex* is forced
to be quiet in regard to them

The vote on the State ticket in this
Congressional district, at the late elec
tion, shows a Democratic majority of
220 ! This is a gain of 370 over last
year, when Cessna's majority over
Kimmell was 144. Tin- vote of the
several counties comprising the dis
trict, was as follows:
Geary Packer
Adams 887 maj.
Bedford Tl7 44
Franklin 807 44
Fulton 3.56 44
Somerset 1201 maj. —-
1427
1201
Packer's maj. 226
By the time J. Cessna gets through
with his appointments, this majority
will be doubled. The census is to be
taken next year, and J. will soon have
to peddle out marshalships to anxious
expectants. We advise our "Republi
can" friends who expect to be mar
shals to be on the alert and see to it
that their claims are pressed upon the
attention of the aforesaid J. If they
cannot succeed in getting appoint
ments, their boys may be made clerks
to those who are appointed. Half a
loaf is better than no bread. Let every
"Republican" politician In the county
ask the appointment of census-taker,
and either he or some member of his
family will get a crumb from the table
of Ulysses I. J. C. dares not disap
point any "Republican" politician, for
the 226 majority for Packer in the 16th
Congressional district is a sharp rem in- j
der to him that he had better keep all |
the friends he has and make as many
more as possible.

It will he seen that Longenecker has
288 majority over Noble and 805 over
Hi pes, and that Long has 164 over No
hie and 290 over Sipes. This is a very
close vote, and if the Democrats who
staid at home on election-day, because
they thought there was no hope for the
election of our candidates, had done
their duty, both Noble and Sipes would
have been elected. But there is no use
lamenting what is past. Let us resolve
that hereafter our full vote must he
polled. _______

For this victory we owe thanks to
many conservative "Republicans,"
who, disgusted with the extravagance
and corruption of the radical state
Legislature, determined to vote for a
change. Mr. Findlay's election is a
triumph of the friend's of Reform over
blind and bigoted partizanship. We
congratulate the people of this .Senato
rial district on this auspicious result.
Tn KitE are 8,200 Democratic voters
in Bedford county. About-100 of these
remained at home on the 12th inst.
Tnere are about 2650 Radical voters in
this county, about 200 Oi whom did
not vote at the late election.

The loose stuteiucuts and hypocriti
cal pretensions which even high gov
ernment officials are frequently guilty
of making, is admirably exposed by
the Boston Pout in the ease of Mr.
Secretary Boutwell. The Secretary of
the Treasury, says that paper, is the
possessor of a remarkably minute
turn of mind, and it is therefore the
more singular that such considerable
trifles as the following happened to es
cape his attention: He stated in Phil
adelphia that the public debt at pre
sent amounts to $2,450,000,000 and at
the same time insists on its payment
iu gold, if it were to ho paid, at the
current price of gold, the debt would
be increased by more than seven hun
dred millions of dollars! Why decs
lie not then, if he would be thought a
hard money man above others, state
the amount of the debt In actual coin,
instead of in currency, and so say that it
is over thirty-one hundred millions of
dollars in its sum total, rather than
twenty four hundred millions ? A
gatn, Mr. Bout well goes into the mar
ket and huvs bonds for currency at
one hundred and fifteen, when gold is
selling for one hundred and thirty odd.
If he stickles for paying them in coin,
why does he not pay for them at the
latter rate, instead of buying them of
the public creditor on the currency ba
sis? How hollow are the pretensions
of quacks everywhere. Mr. Boutwell
takes coin tor party effects, but buys at
paper prices to suit his actual needs.

WHAT IS A AKIH.I-RAGGF.R?
The question has been asked, answer
ed, and settled in the minds of all de
cent men. But the Charleston Daily
New .s paints the animal so truly to the
life, that we must present the picture:
"And there is, it must be confessed,
some tact in the animal, ft is not at
tempted to prove that what is called a
carpet-bagger by any other name would
smell more sweet. The whole formu
la is summed up in these few words :
'What I am, he is.' Ergo, 'what he is,
lam.' This is th e short of it. The
long of it is that, according to the car
pet-bag law, every man living in South
Carolina, who is not native of the
State, is to all intents and purposes a
true carpet-bagger. This is the Radi
cal definition of the term ; and it can
he seen with half an eye that if every
German and Virginian, Irishman and
Alabamian, Scotchman and Georgian,
now living in South Carolina, can be
set down as one of the carpet-bag bri
gade the body becomes at once highly
respectable, and worthy, as a whole, of
confidence and trust.
"But calling a decent man a carpet
hugger will not make him one. There
is not a person in South Carolina,
white or colored, who does not know
what constitutes a carpet-bagger. And
as long as this is the case, the effort of
the South Carolina carpet-bagger,
whether from Connecticut, Ohio, or
Massachusetts, to make himself decent
at the cost of the adopted citizens of
the State, will be as vain as the fam
ous attempt of Mrs. Partington to
sweep back with a broom the broad
waves of the Atlantic.
"As we have already hinted what is
not a carpet-bagger, it may he expect
ed that we should say what is that
sublime compound of cheek, rascality
and nastiness. The accepted definition
at the South is both pointed and sim
ple. A carpet-bagger is a Northern
Radical who took up his abode in the
South 'when the Union came in,' made
politics his trade, and lives in office, or
out of it, by defaming and plundering
the Southern people. This is the car
pet-bagger. This is the man who robs
and slanders all men with excellent
impartiality, who is as little the friend
of the negro as the friend of the white
race; who has no religion hut love of
self, and no God hut his pocket.
"No Southern mad can ever be a car
pet-bagger, although he may fall into
the depths of scallawagerie. No a
dopted citizen, whatever the place of
his birth, who honestly works, for his
living, can be a carpet-bagger. No
Northern man .who isengaged in legit
imate business, and supports himself
by his business, is called a carpet-bag
ger.
"The dividing line is broad and
plain ; for the carpet-bagger thrives by
cozening the negro and cheating the
white man ; by calumny and fraud ; by
misrepresentation and abuse; by pub
lic pap and private bribe; by all that
is foul, rotten and unclean.
"Well: well! well! who shall touch
pitch ami not be defiled! Adios! car
pet-bagger."

THE NEGRO RACE DOOMED. —The
Richmond (Va.) Whig says: Under
the form of slavery that existed in the
Southern States, the negroes were the
most prolific race in the world. As
illustrating the effect upon them in
this particular of their changed condi
tion, the Norfolk Journal says: A
gentleman informed us some weeks
since that on his farm there are nine
married negro couples, but not one
child among them. Another friend,
from the south side of James River,
told us the other day that there are,
within a quarter of a mileof his house,
eight negro families, among whom
there has hut one child been born since
the war. We have heard many such
accounts from various other sources, all
pointing to the fact that the increase
of the colored people is now much less
than their decrease by death. In ad
dition to the facts we have stated, we
read in many newspapers that it is be
lieved that the same state of things is
general in the South. The next census
will give some strange revelations on
this subject." It may have a bearing
on this question to mention that, while
the white population of this city is
undoubtedly materially greater than
the colored, the official report of mor
tality last week showed that there
were twenty-five deaths among the lat
ter to thirteen among the former.
An inventive youth in Wisconsin

Some young ladies in Fond du Lec,
Wisconsin, are in the habit of blockad

Forty-seven illicit stills, calculated

The assessment roll of taxable prop

land and fixed improvements. The
city pays now nearly half the State tax.
The picturesque way the ladies now

Three years ago a Georgia planter
sold his plantation for S9OOO. As the

he sold it for $18,750.
A negro girl named Jennie Croir

A young lady in Auburn, New Y'ork,
refused to marry her sweetheart, un
less he stopped chewing tobacco. He
agreed, and the wedding took place in
due season. Returning from the bri
dal tour in the ears the other day, he
pulled a roll of something from his
pocket. She thought it was tobacco,
she clutched it and threw it out of the
window. Alas, it was a roll of mon

recovered.
Dr. Livingstone, the great traveler,
in regard to whose fate a year ago
there was so much anxious solicitude,
has again been heard from. A letter
received from Lake Banglew, reports
him in excellent health and spirits,
and states further that this indefatiga
ble explorer of the wilds of Africa has
at last discovered the long sought for
source of the river Nile. It is to be
hoped that he will be restored to his
friends and country, and that we shall
have another volume or two of his in
teresting travels and discoveries.
A reporter went to interview ex-

upon his efforts for every cent that he

The San Francisco Bulletin says the
mining stocks sold in the stock board
there are worth about $5,000,000 less
now than they sold for nine months
ago. Until the past six months min
ing stocks have been favorite and easi
ly managed collaterals with the banks,
and thus brokers and others were
largely aided in carrying on their
sharp operations; but of late bankers
fight shy of stocks. The belief appears
to be gaining ground among them that
their money is much safer in the
hands of those who borrow with the
honest object of developing some inter
est which will tend to build up the
State than with those who want it
merely to create fictitious values in
stocks.
There is to he a barn, stable—or rath

Schenck's PULMONIC SYRUP,
Seaweed Tonicand Mandrake Pills, willcureCon
suinption, Liver Complaint, 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 appetite becomes good ; ttie food digests and
makes good blood ; the patient begins to grow in
flesh; the diseased matter ripens in the iungs,
and he patient outgrows the disease and gets
well. This is the only 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 expeetora
tion. 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 Tonie and Mandrake
Pills must be freely used to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so that the Pulmonic Syrup and the
food will make good blood
Schenck'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 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 the
stomach to throw out the gastric juice to dissolve
the food with the Pulmonic Syrup, and it is made
into good bloo l without fermeutation or souring
in the stomach.
The great reason why physicians do not cure
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 secreMons, ami eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr. Schefick, in his treatment, does not try to
atop 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 Complaint, Dyspepsia, Cataarh, Can
ker, Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and stom
ach are made healthy.
If a person has Consumption, ofcourse the lungs
in some way are diseased, either tubercles, ab
scesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or
the lungs are a mass of inflammation and fast de
caying. In such cases what must bo done' It
is not only the lungs that are wasting, but it is
the whole tydy. Th? stomach and liver have lost
their power to make blood out of food. Now the
only chance is to take Schenck's three medicines,
which will bring up 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
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 cure consumption.
When there is no luug disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia, Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Rills aro sufficient without
the Pulmonic Syrup. Take the Mandrake Piils
freely in all billious complaints, as they aro 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 atilieted have used Dr.
Schenck's preparations with tho same remarkable
succoss. 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 bo is professional
ly at his Principal Office, Philadelphia, overy
Saturday, whoro all let ers for advice must be ad
dressed. He is also professionally at No. 32 Bond
Street, New York, ovory other Tuesday, and at
No. 35 Hanover Street, Boston, every other
Wednesday. He gives advice free, but for a thor
ough examination with his Respiromcter the pric*
