This An- diew &. Cortin has never done, but. on the contrary. has been ever on hiv knees at the feet of Abraham Lincoln, begging for offi- oial favors, and for the privilege of being allooed to govern the State of Pennsylvania according to th. desire of his lord and mas- ter. Cartin’s nomination was achieved in the midst of a great opposition, showing that a large minority of his own party are against him, and a proposal to make his nomination unanimous, was received with groans and hisses. [How different from the nomination of Judge Woodward, which was received with cheers und expressions of unbounded delight, and which has been accepted by the masses with the most intense satisfaction, © May we not augur from this the triumph of the latter, and the discomfiture and complete disgrace of the former? We hope 50, and we think we can see in the future the fair flag of the democracy floating far above the blood stained and Lideons emblem of abolitionism. : —— PP [C= As the time is fast approaching for the delegate elections, let the people look round them fcr “good men ard tre,” to represent them in the county cinvention ‘We want candidates this fall who are men of principle, and to {have these, we must have good men as (delegates.

On the re- sult of that elcction depends the welfare of Pennsylvania and of the Union. 1f we al- low Curtin to be elected, we endorse the Administration of Abraham Linco'n, and invite him to place his foot upon our nccks more firmly than ever.

No soidier, perhaps, in the North- ern ary, has covered himself with so much infamy 88 General Ambrose E, Burnside. Since the complete whipping which he re- ceived at Fredericksburg, at the hands of Gen. Lee, his temper seems to have soured, and his career since then has been raught buta series of pctty tyrannies and con- temptible acttons. His last achievement, smce the arrest of the noble Vallandigham 1s the carrying of the Kentucky election for the black republicans, by suppressing Dem- ocratic votes at the point of the bayonet, Our blood boils when we read the accounts of the unholy way in which this result was brought about, and we wonder that it can be any longer tolerrted. We have heard it said that Gen. Burnside was a Demoorat. We should blush to own him, Heis a sneaking sychoyhant and fawper st the footstool of black republican power, and his name should stink in the nostrils of every man who loves truth, justice or lib- erty. Clothed in the authority of a Major General of a Department, Burnside imagi himself to be all powerful, and t arything he-may say or do, is at once counted a “traitor” ora *‘rabel,” and trea ed with contumely and scorn and persona indignity. If there could be a baser act than the ar- rest of Vallandigham, than Burnside’s in- terference with the Kentucky clections is that one. His act was that of the : oppressive tyranny, and men were knocked down and hooted away from the polls by hig armed minions because they would not vote the Administration ticket. How long, O men of America! how long shall trese will you submit to have your deare 5 things continue 2 How long How Gen. Burnside Managed tte Ken- tuky Election, The Louisyilie Democrat of Wednesday is received, and is filled with evidences that the Democrats throughout the State were prevented from voting by General Burn- side’s soldiers. Says the paper: “We are glad to know that some ef the strongest administration men look gloomily at the manner in which the Stata election was managed. No man who has any re- gard for the rights of States can make any defense or apology for it. Let those rejoice in success who can rejoice over an election supervised at Washington. We have vari- ous authe ccounts of the suppression of votes in different places; but we shail try to avoid any statements not anthamicated. The plain truth is, the people of this Stale were disfranchised and deprived ef the right to vote according to the constitution and laws of the State. The les taught 1s ominons.

Fellow Democrats of Centre County: —No doubt you are aware of the fect that some persons have been circulating a report that Iwas not a sound and reliable Democrat—I presume with the intention of lowering me E Roan, O P Hassihger, J Meise, Charles elcetion, it will be my fourteenth annual any but onr regu'ar Democratic nominees, except last fall, when I voted for James T. Hale, as you very well know the most of us did, and I defy any man, let him be who he may, Republican or Democrat, to show me anything to the contrary, or point out a Single act that ever I did, in politics cor- trary to sound Democratic principles ; and solongas such persons circulating such reports, are not able to do this m a public manner, or authenticate the above report to be true, T consider them to be my enemies trying to injure my political character, in- stead of doing the party a: service ag they pretend to do by cautioning the Democrats not to go for me (as they say] you might be deceived again as you had been by for- mer persons filling that office—and would look at them to be persons circulating false reports, with the intention of injuring their fellow men. I do not wish to stand misrep- resented befere the peopla of Centre county. Let all things be done fairly and honestly is my motto. J. G. MEYER. Whereas, It seems that certain persons have been canvassing the county, circulating a report that our friend and neighbor, Mr. J. G. Meyer, was a doubtful Democrat, Therefore, we the undersigned, do hereby certify that the above report is entirely false, that we have been intimately ac- quainted with Mr. Meyer for a number of years and have always known him to be a sound, firm and unflinching Democrat, and do now respectfully recommend him as such to our fellow Democrats of Centre county.
