THE FimrXTH AWEJTDHEVr.
The scheme by which the leaders of j
the Radical party hope to rob the peo
ple of their right to settle the suffrage j
question in their own way, is now pen
dulous between life and death. The j
most skilful political doctors are uncer- I
lain whether it will live or die. The j
late of the Fifteenth Amendment hangs j
trembling in the balance.
The Union, as at present composed,
consists of thirty-seven States. Twenty
eight of these must ratify the Amend
ment before it can become a j>art of the
Constitution. So long as ten of them j
withhold their assent, thoConstitution j
remains unamended. The following
named States have ratified, viz: Maine,
New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachu
setts, Connecticut, New York, Penn
sylvania, Virginia, North Carolina,
South Carolina, Florida, Alabama, Il
linois, lowa, Michigan, Wisconsin,
Missouri, Kansas, Nevada and West
Virginia—2o.
But Virginia ratified under duress,
that is to say, Congress compelled Iter j
legislature to give its assent to the A
rn end men t, under the threatened pen- !
alty of exclusion from the Union until
such assent would be given. No law
yer who has ever read a half dozen pa- j
ges of Btackstone, will regard this rat
ification as valid. But the Congression
al tricksters will. And Missouri rati- |
tied but a part of the Amendment, j
which fact would render the action of j
the legislature of that State in the
premises, utterly nugatory in the eyes '
of decent and honest men. Congress, ;
however, will, doubtless, regard it as j
regular and legal.
The States which haw rejected the i
Amendment, aro New Jersey, Dela
ware,! >hio, Kentucky, Georgia and Ten
n essee—o. Of the States which are yet
to act on it, California. Oregouand Ma
ryland will certainly reject it. The
New York legislature, at its coming
session, will repeal its resolution of rat
ification and reject the Amendment.
Rhode Island is in doubt. Minnesota
acts on the festma lente principle. Ohio,
we are assured, will stand firm in op
position to the Amendment, the "in
dependent" Members and Senators
from Hamilton county having deter
mined to act with the Democrats on
that issue. Indiana will electa Demo
cratic legislature next year and reject
the Amendment. But if Ohio stands
firm and New York repeals, the dragon
vv ill have been slain without theaid of
I ndiana. Should Texas, or Mississip
pi, follow the example of Tennessee,
Oh io may also be dispensed with. The
outlook for the conspirators who in
vented this hideous contrivance for the
overthrow oi popular rights, is any
thing but hopeful. Take heart, friends
of the Right! The darkest hour is just
before the dawn.
GIBSON, of the Guins of Liberty,
whose name stinks iu the nostrils of
the Democracy of Fayette county, as
the very skunk-weed of corruption,
dares not deny that he declared, in
Philadelphia, last fall, that Packer's
vote in that county, would depend al
together or. how much money was
given hiin by the Mate Committee for
the parches of his independent can
didate for Prothor.otary. He fights
very shy on that subject, and beats an
i n glorious retreat under cover of a scat
tering fire, aimed, however, a little too
low to hurt any one who does not live
in the same depths of political infamy
i n which the miserable creature of the
Genius perpetually grovels. Dropping
the metaphor, let the reader under
stand that this Gibson interrogatively
chat ges us with having been "willing
to defeat Packer," if not "paid our
price," ad with having been "luke
warm in the Senatorial contest be
tween Findlay and Scull," &c., Ac.—
Our zealous, unremitting and unselfish
labor in behalf of Mr. Packer, Mr.
Findlay and the whole Democratic
ticket, from the beginning of the cam
paign to the close, of which no active
Democrat In Southern Pennsylvania
is ignorant, is our vindication. Eft
this cowardly blackguard, whose con
genial business Is to libel those whose
fair fame his corrupt nature prevents
him from emulating, ask the Demo
crat* of this Senatorial district wheth
er we were lukewarm in the struggle
between Findlay and Scull. I jet him
ask his neighbor, the editor of the
Somerset Democrat, or Mr. Findlay,
or any other prominent Democrat of
the district, if he would have himself
written down a contemptible slanderer.
As for our stewardship as Deputy
Chairman of the State Committee, we
aro ready to render our account. The
Committee can have it at any time.
Can Gibson say as much for the mon
ey furnished him for the purchase of
that "Independent eandidate for Pro
t honotary ?" Rut we have already said
more on this subject than the nature
of it warrants. Let the vain coward of
the Genius eject his slimy words.—
They are quite innocuous.

THE Harki-BUBO PATRIOT.— We
call attention to the prospectus of the
Harrisburg Daily and Wkrekty Patriot
published in another column. The ;
Patriot is the only Democratic paper
printed at the State Capital. Its daily j
issue contains the latest and fullest tel- !
egraphic reports and reaches this place
and the towns between llarrisburgar.d
Johnstown, on the Peeaa. 11. R. and
its branches, from ten to twenty- j
four hours earlier than the Philadel
phia dailies. The Weekly Patriot is
a large double sheet containing up- j
wards of forty columns of reading mat
ter, the latest and fullest market re
ports, tales, sketches, poetry and ed- j
itorial articles on current topics. We I
will furnish the Weekly Patriot and
the GAZETTE for $3.50 per annum.— j
To those who wish to subscribe for a
paper outside of the county, we rec
ommend the Patriot. Meanwhile,
we would not be understood as recom
mending the abandonment of the home
paper for any city publication.
A Washington correspondent says,
barefaced thievery is now railed "de
linquency" by the Court journals.
"Inadequacy' offunds" to meet the de
mands of the Government, is the mild
way of referring to an absconded de
faulter. The official journal gives
a case, in which it says "inadequa
cy" has just been discovered "upon
the settlement of the accounts of an
Acting Assistant Paymaster. It was
found that his account is s2o,ooo short,
and that he has absconded. His bonds
are for $5,000." Net profit, $21,000!
And so the money goes. Taxpayers,
blessed innocents, imagine that they
are being bled to pay off the public
debt, and government pensioners, poor
deluded cripples who vote the Radical
ticket through good and through evil re
port, wait for their money. Radical
Paymasters go into "inadequacy," and
more taxes must tie wrung from the
people to make up the deficiency.

The "Old Guard" for December is
on our table. This sterling monthly is
always a welcome visitor to our sanc
tum. Mr. C. C. Burr, who has edited
the "Old Guard" for seven years, retires
and is succeeded by Dr. Thomas Dunn
English. We are sorry to part with
the old editor, though we hail the ad
vent of the new. We have spent many
pleasant hour.- with Mr. Burr, at hi*
editor's table, which was always well
j furnished with substantiate, and still
i better stocked with condiments, not
j lacking the real Attic salt. But we
shall look for excellent entertainment
at the board of "Bon Bolt." Forward,

A Democratic member of the Ala
bama legislature has been denied a
seat in that body because he held a
county office before the war! His
Radical opponent, who was beaten a

loudly.

There has been more "secession"

The other day, while visiting the
house of a friend near Rutherford
Park, New Jersey, on the occasion of
a magnificent Thanksgiving dinner, a !
gentleman at the table casually re
marked:
I am mighty sorry we lost Pennsyl
vania. 1 went from here clear home ■
to vote, lost three days' time, and mv
expense-money. Put it is all right. 1 i
shall keep on in that way, and vote
every time there is a chance, if I have
to travel a thousand miles to do it.
As a Democrat I would vote, and as a
Democrat I would help othera who are 1
voting and working to save the coun- j
try.
We took one good, square look at
that man, and set him down as a pa
triot. Such men are a help to a party,
a credit to the country, an honor to
themselves. In this case a working
man, engaged in aiding the construc
tion of a railroad through New Jersey,
left his business, made a long trip to
his residence, voted and returned to
his work. Democracy of that kind
should shame to snowy whiteness the
faces of the stay-at-home Democrats
who will not go to the polls unless pro
vided with wagons or covered car
riages, and oftentimes paid for the
trouble they are put to in easting a
vote.
There are in the country thousands
of Democrats who keep away from the
polls for some little reason or other.
One is not exactly satisfied with the
nomination. Another is mad becau-e
his brother, father-in-law, cousin, or
partner was not nominated, and he re
fuses to vote. Another thinks the
State will go against the party he
works with, and professes to dig pota
toes, husk corn, cut wood, or play
seven-up in the wood-shed, barn, or
wagon-house, rather than -tart out
like a man and help those who are
working while he is idling.
Another hates to lose his vote, thinks
the matter over, talks with a few of
his weak-kneed friends, and votes the
ticket he dislikes, thinking it policy to
be with the winning party. Another
thinks this Democrat or tiiat Demoer it
a little too extreme, so he withdraws
his gaze from the grand entirety of
Democracy, fastens it upon the little
speck of humanity which attracts his
thoughts; lets the grand issue go by
default, and in venting his spleen on
one man who is earnestly working
himself, works directly against the
party and persons he profes-es to labor
with.
How many ol our readers are there
who will feel just a little ashamed to
think they did not-vote? And how
many of those who managed the late
campaign in Pennsylvania could hike
a lessou iu earnest, working Democra
cy from the workingman and gentle
man who made the remark as above
quoted?
1 The Government, during the war,
sent soldiers by the thousand to vote
for its preservation, and for the con
tinuation of the power by which the
Government robbed the people for the
benefit of the few. And to this day it
gives fourloughs and pay to clerk- in
Washington who would go to distant
States to vote for that party which
furnishes them with food and drink.
And yet there are thousands upon
thousands of men everywhere who,
from some cause or other, talk Demo
cracy in a sort of wishywashy way
| three hundred and sixty-four days of
j the year : but when it comes to voting,
through cowardliness or laziness, sit
still while others go to the polls, rain
or shine, and east their ballots
Asa general thing those who vote
the least are the ones who want big
| gest offices; who are always impor
tuning friends for nomination, which,
! if not received, causes them to either
work directly against the ticket, or by
neglect and selfish indifference jeopar
! di/.e and often defeat the earnest work
I of others.— Brick P<rmeroy.
no Mi* IS THE EAST-WHEAT ! N THE
WEST.
Millions upon millions of dollars'
worth of United States bonds locked
up in the bank-vaults East, earning
golden interest, while the bond-hold
er lives in idleness.
Millions and millions of bushels of
wheat locked upin the granaries of the
We-t, being eaten by rats, while the
! farmer is at work, in debt, in trouble,
; wailing for a chance to sell, and for
money to pay little bills.
If the bonds were dragged out of
their hiding-places, transformed into
i currency, and this money compelled
to earn Us interest-, as laborers earn their
wages, the fanner could sell his wheat
and pay his debts—the Western mer
i chant could pay the East-rn merchant
—the Eastern merchant sell more
goods, empty his store, and call upon
ail the manufacturing establishments
of Now England, or elsewhere, for
more goods, until there would lie em
ployment for all who could labor.
The bonds locked up in the banks of
the East contribute nothing for the
support of labor or reward for enter
prise.
j The wheat in the West, the produce
1 everywhere, is sold to support the
oues who raise it—to feed the ones
who labor, to go, In part to support the
bond.
The bond was a necessity then. The
wheat is note.
Military necessity railed for the
\ bond.
National necessity now rails for its
i taxation or change for currency.
During the war they said it was
wrong for the soldiers to stand guard
over the property of those who warred
against the interests of the country.
Now ire say it is wrong for !.i" >rers to
stand guard over the bonds, which are
at war against industry !
Then they said, "Withdraw the
troops from guarding the idle proper
ty of those who made their money at
the expense of labor."
Now ice say, "Withdraw your legis
lation from the defence of bonds, ex
\ change prisoners, give us currency for
bonds, aud we will give you prosperity
instead of hard times. Nations grow.
; What was a duty then is a crime now.
The reaping-machine destroyed the j
rights of the cradle—the uaowing ma
chine of the scythe —the railroad train
of the emigrant wagon—the telegraph
of the earrier-pegion.
Tlie inventions of the past are left
by the road-side as progression marks
our nation's course. The man who
owned and trained carrier-pigeons de
manded protection for his birds, and
pay for training them. We pointed
to the telegraph, and said—"Duty to
the living and those who are to come,
is our excuse. Dot the dead bury their
dead. The people are marching on !"
In saving the nation we created
bonds. us not destroy the nation
that the bonds may live. They came
from the grasesofourdead. Let them
go to their own graves, and let sprout
therefrom the green which shall restore
life and beauty to the land, to be fol
lowed by the golden harvest which will
follow.
Suppose all the boil s were called in,
and the tons upon tons of paper on
which they were printed bleached out
by legislation, and returned printed in
currency. Is it wrong for a nation to
redeem its notes in what it has declar
ed to be "legal tender "?
A nstver if you can !
If greenbacks are a legal tender in
part they are in all. If a legal tender,
they are good enough to pay interest
or to redeem bonds. If they are not,
the Government lies! If made in part
so by legislation, they ran be made
wholly so.
Give us currency for the bonds, stop
the drain of interest from the w heat
bins of the West, the cotton-mills of
the South, and the gold-mines of the
territories and suudown slopes. Com
pel bondholders to set their funds to
work as men do their cattle, (five us
money, and we will give you labor,
anil prosperity everywhere.— JV. V.

FRO If THE FEDERAL CAPITAL.
WASHINGTON, November 24, 1809.
Of all the measures, the adoption of
which w ill be pressed at the ensuing
session of Congress, perhaps the most
infamous is that embraced in what is
called "Jenckes" bill. It is known of
all what influence prevailed in the ap
pointment of the 'clerks and agents of
every description" of theGeueral Gov
ernment. Probably there never was
such a set gathered together by any
process; besides which they receiv
ed their places universally as •> re
word for dirty partizau service-.
Not a known Democrat or honest
Gonseivative is left in office. The
purpose of Mr. Jenckes is simply to
perjtetnate the present incumbents now in
place, and by a means infinitely more
objectionable than tne "i'enure-of-of
tice" act, by which Congress sought to
hamper President Johnson, it propo
ses to create a commission to control
appointments of the hypocritical plea
of securing talent and integrity. The
measure, if passed at all, w ill be passed
manifestly lor the purpose of binding
the hands of a Democratic-administra
tion, which is now sure to succeed the
present! lam aware that Mr. Jenicks
projHjsed the measure a year ago.
It was then given the go-by, for the
reason that the majority of the Radi
ical Congressmen had full confidence
of success iu 1868. Its passage will be
a virtual admission of defeat in 1872.
That's all.
Thus early it seems to be conceded,
that General Grant is repudiated for a
second term. But the Radicals will
hold on to the shoulder straps in selec
ting the coming man. The war feel
ing must again be appealed to, and
sectional hate invoked. General
Sherman is, therefore, brought in
the field, and, I understand, with
Grant's consent. The latter content
plates "swapping places." The pres
ent "General of the Army," however,
is already involved in the "gift enter
prise" business, as well as his prede
ces-or. and. as hi- chances of political
success increase, may yet far outstrip
him. It is, consequently, thought by
the poorer tribe* of Radical magnates
that he is not "the right man."
Letters from Ohio, received in this
city, leave no room for doubt that the
six independent members of the Leg
islature elected from the Cincinnati
district have determined to act with
•the Democrats, which will give the lat
ter the majority ou joint ballot, thereby
securing the rejection of the Fifteenth
Amendment, at-.d rendering Sher
man's and Delano's pretensions to the
United States Senatorial succession al
together abortive.
The jollification at the Navy Yard
to day, passed off without any untow
ard event "to mar the harmony of the
occasion." The President and his Gen
erals, Admirals and Secretaries, made
"a thorough inspection of the work
ings and condition of the Yard," after
which they went to work in good ear
nest in enjoying themselves. "The
yard" was found to be in an excellent
"condition," and the "workings" car
ried on with becoming vigor. Every
thing there, in short, is just as it should
be, and the entertainment of Admiral
Dahlgren beyond encomium. Very

Paris. Our existing arrangements

The New York Democrat sums up
the results of the Oetober and Novcra- ,
her elections, in order to show that the 1
Democrats have gained a substantial
victory. The exhibit comes in this
shape: Among the States Grant car
ried in lflhtt were Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Massachusetts, Minnesota, Wisconsin
lowa, Illinois, and California. These
gave him an aggregate majority of
285,247. Among the States that went
for Seymour were New York, New
Jersey, and Maryland. These gave an
aggregate Democratic majori y of 4 f,-
811—leaving a total majority for Grant
in the eleven States mentioned of 240-
530. Those same eleven States have
voted within the last two months,
for candidates of greater or less im
portance, but always upon questions of
party. One of the eight States that
went for Grant last fall, this fall goes
Democratic, leaving only 7, which have
given aggregated Radical majorities of
75,500, against 285,217 last year. New
York, New Jersey, Maryland, and
California have this fall gone Demo
cratic, and given aggregated majorities
: of 82,000, against 44,811 last year.
This, instead of leaving a Radical rna
j jority in eleven States of 240,430, gives
the Democracy a majority of 6,500.
Within one year the Radical majority
| has decreased 209,747, while the Dem
ocratic majorities have increased 37,-

MISSISSIPPI RADICALISM— BIoody
Work—Five Men Killed. —At a recent
meeting at the Crystal Springs, a Rad
ical (colored man) interfered in a
quarrel between two whites, and drew
a pistol on one of them, a Conserva
tive. Meeting him at Dry Grove, the
gentleman, Mr. Wells, on whom the
pistol was drawn, inflicted punishment
on his assailant with a whip. That
night (Saturday) a laxly of forty or
fifty armed Radicals (negroes) organ
ized a mob and visited several houses
in the neighborhood searching for
Wells, and telling the females of the
families that if they didn't reveal his
whereabouts they would cut their
throats and burn the houses over their
dead bodies. In their marauding ex
pedition, we are informed, they visit
ed the house of an old peaceable citi
zen of the community, Mr. Collin, ag
ed 70 years, breaking his skull. His
son retaliated by shooting the murder
er, and was himself killed or badly
wounded. The next day i Sunday i the
mob continued its depredations, and a
raong other outrages,sacked two stores
at Dry Grove. In the meantime the
alarm had been given, and the white
men of the neighborhood collected for
defence, and started to arrest the pro
ceedings of the marauders. They were
ambushed by the Radicals and find
into. One of the number was killed
and two wounded. They killed twoof
the rioters, and the others took to the
woods. —Jackson Clarion.
A AEH METHOD OF COII.FTTISG

IT*.
Hon. Leonard Myers, of Pennsylva
nia, intends early in the next session
of Congress to introduce a bill chang
ing the present system of collecting
tax on distilled spirits and levyiug it
entirely upon the capacity of the dis
tillery. He was first to present the
plan several years ago, when on the
Darling Investigation Committee, and
still insists that the gross demoraliza
tion of the present system shows some
such change in the law is needed. He
conteuds not only that it will increase
the revenues from this source, but will
remove the temptations to fraud pre
sented by the law as it now stands;
abolish the regulations of the Depart
ment on the subject, do away with
stamps and meters, and reduce the
force now employed to carry out the
law. Mr. Myers will urge these views
upon Congress, believing that there
will be general approval of the princi
ples embodied in his bill.

ken according to direction They are all three
to be taken at the same time They eltar
stomach, relax the liver, and put it to work th< n
the appetite becomes good ; the food digests
makesgood blood; the patient begins to grow
tlesh ; the diseased matier ripens in the lung,
and the patient outgrow* the disease and gu.
well. This is the only way to cure consumption
To these three medicines Dr J U. Sehecck. <,("
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 r jp e H
slight cough will throw it off. and the patient ha;
rest and the lungs begin to heal.
To do this, tbe.Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake
Pill? must be freely u=ed to cleanse the stomach
and liver, so tbat tbc Pulmonic Syrup and the
food will make good blood
Schenck's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver
removing all obstructions, relax tbe ducts of the
gall-bladder, the bilestartsfreely. and the liver
is soon relieved ; the stools will show what the
Pillscan do ; nothing has ever been invented ex
cept calomel (a deadly poison wbieb is very dan
gerous to use unless with great care), thai will
unlock the gall-bladder and starts the
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 A ikali in the Seaweed
which this preparation is made of. assist* 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 do too rnucb ; tbey
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 seore'ions, and eventually the patient
sinks and dies.
Dr.Scbenek, in his treatment,does not try to
stop a cough, night sweats, chills, or lever Re
i move the cause, and they will all stop of their
| own accord Noonecaube cured of Cousump
' tion, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, Cataarb, Can
ker. Ulcerated Throat, unless the liver and stom
ach are made healthy.
If a person has Consumption, ofcourte the lung
in Some way are diseased. either tubercles, ah
scesses, bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or
the lung? are a mass of inflammatior and fast de
caying. In such cases what must be done' It
is not only the iupgs that are wasting, but 1: i,
the whole tyjdy. The stomach ana liver have lost
their power to make blood out of food. Now the
only chance is to take Schenck's three medicini
which will bring up a tone to the stomach, the
patient will begin to want food, it willdigesteasi
iy and make good blood : then the patient begii ■
to gain in flesh, and as soon as the body begins to
grow, tbc lungs commence to heal up, and the pa
tient gets fleshy ani welt. This is the only way
to cureeoiisump!ion.
When there is no lung disease, and only Liver
Complaint and Dyspepsia. Schenck's Seaweed
Tonic and Mandrake Pills are sufficient without
the Pulmonic Syrup Take the Mandrake Pii -
freely in all billious complaints, as they are per
fectly harmless
Dr. S ;benck, who has enjoyed uninterrupted
health for many years past, an j now weighs 22>
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 eured
j by the aforesaid medicines, and since his recovery
many thousands similarly affiieted have used Dr
Schenck 's preparation.- with tho same remarkable
success Full directions accompanying each,
make it not absolutely necessary to personally see
Dr. Scbenck, unless the patients wish their lung
examined and for this purpose he is professional
ly at his Principal Office, Philadelphia, every
Saturday, where all let ers for advice must be ad
dressed He is also professionally at No. 32 Bond
