THE RESULT OF APATHY.
The latest election news gives Sharswood
a imgfirity ofßo2. This result uiav be
changed if the fraudulent Copperhead vote
in Philadelphia, of which there are reported
to be about 3,<**,are rejected. Hut despite
the fraudulent votes our ddcai is l->ie the
result of apathy and indifference on the part
of the Republican voters of the Stafe. j f
king our own county as a criterion by which
to judge, and there arc many that have done
worse, we find that while there is only a fail
ing off in the Copperhead vote of 191, in the
Republican there is a deficiency ol 286.
The Copperhead vote thi- year is 2" 14
while the Republican is only — ;f -• hast
year the Copperhead vote was 2 via and the
Republican '2591. Now it the Republican
vote this year as compared ' t phntofla-t
had been as full in proportion its ill ' "p
perhead, we would have had 166 m r v.a. -
and the Copperhead majority instead ol 33'.' I
would have been but 219. 'i'hat is, instead
of gaining 95 on last year's vote they wouid
have lost 25. Thus much for the apathy ol
Bedford County Republicans. -Just such
conduct throughout the state has lost u>. in
all probability, a Supreme .Judge. If we
had been as active and had got out as full
a vote in proportion all over the state
as the Copperheads in this county, all
of which could easily have been done,
instead of iosing the State by 802 we
would have carried it by more than 14,
000. Let Republicans ponder these facts
and not despair, but go to work to redeem
what, through negligence, they have lost
The task will be a light one if entered
upon with energy and seal. In 1802! we
were in a similar manner beaten by a Cop
perhead majority in the State of 3,524
though in 1860 we bad carried it by 59,018.
Awakened from our dreams of fancied se
eurity and alarmed for the safety of the
country we went to work at once and in 1803
the state was carried by a Republican ma
jority 15,325 which was increased in I>■ • 4 to
20,075 and in 1865 to 22.660. What has
been done can be done again. Awake then
Republicans! Shake 'iff the lethargy that
has already imperiled the great work of te
ccnstruction and through it the life of the
nation. Co to work with the zeal and ener
gy of freemen determined to preserve their
freedom. Igxhor in behalf of humanity,
justice, liberty, peace, union and free insti
tutions. Remember that eternal vigilance
is the twice of liberty, that activity is an in
dispensable condition of political a- well s
natural life. Nothing is wantiug but a rea
sonable degree of energy in the Presidential
Campaign of 1868 to give us at least 20,0 X)
majority in Pennsylvania. It can and must
be done, so "pick your flints and try it
again."
AMENDMENT OT THE PENSION
LAWS AND THE OBSTINACY Ol
TIIE PENSION OFFICE.
One should think that the experience of
the Government of the 1 nited States in
granting Pensions to the widows and or
phans of deceased Soldiers, had at least ap
proximated to a perfect system, a system
that would do e<|Ual and exact justice to
the unfortunate who have been thrown upon
the world by the casualties of war, and
whom the Government is in honor bound
to support, yet there are thousands of wid
ows and orphans, the victims of the late
rebellion, whose happy homes have been
broken up, the mother sent to labor for her
daily bread, and her little ones to become
the drudges of those in better circum
stances. Why is this? Because Congress
has neglected to make the necessary provi
sion for evidence out-side of the evidence
required by the inexorable rules of the Pen
sion Office. We will state a case: A was
drafted, reported, passed an examination and
was held to service. He sickens shortly af
ter beinir sent to the front, is sent to the
hospital and dies of Consumption. Tbe
Pcndcm office demands medical testimony
to the effect that he contracted the
disease in the service. No one knows
and the claim is suspended. Ilia widow
and children are the outraged victims of a
relentless Conscription, they have been sent
from a home of comfort to beg their way
through the world, because the Govern
nicnt, through its sublime "Circumlocution
office," presided over by Mr. Barrett, refu
ses to give the little pittance which it pledg
ed to pay these unfortunates, when it re
lentlessly took away their support, in case it
did not return him. We can cite a score of
cases, all of which have inflicted beggary
upon those who were, prior to the war, de
pendent on strong arms aod warm hearts
and who lived in happiness and content
ment.
If Congress does not do something to re
lieve these distressed creatures we suggest
that the Pension office bo abolished. If one
is relieved all should be relieved. If the
cases, of which we speak, were isolated and
far between, it would be quite a different
thing. But they are very numerous. We
do not hold the Pension office blameless
either in this matter. A great amount of
the distress is caused by its everlasting de
lays and its red-tape. Here is a ea eas an
instance: B enlisted early in the war and
disappeared in a skirmish at Hagerstown,
Maryland. He was not found on the field
after the action and his officer reported him
missiDg He was afterwards seen by a per
son who knew him at Andersonville,
Georgia, who swears that he was in a dying
condition but did not see him die or after
death. The case is suspended year in and
year out for evidence of" death. We do not
think that Mr. Barrett is always cognizant
of such cases, but it should be the duty of
the head of that office to see that his exam
iners do their duty by those who are the
nation's special charge. Wo are satisfied
that examiners become prejudiced against a
case and they tigM it as if the integrity of
the Government depended upon the grant
ing of a single Pension, and while this is
going on at Washington, the helpless on the
Other end of the fine are starving. There
appears to be as little soul and humanity in
the Pension office as there is in an ice-berg.
We call upon Congress Immediately upon
its meeting in November to pass a law air j
Iborizing the Pension office to settle all this !
■ lass of claims without any further unrea
sonahle delay. Unless this is done wo have
! no idea how many, very many, soldiers
widows and orphans are to got through the
winter. However, whethei they cau get
through or not, it is a shame that the Gov
j eminent of the United States should thus
i violate its pliehted faith with those whom
I it has hereft of their all and thus reduced
them from comparative ease to beggary.
HttßAl. 881 OKJIS AND POLtTICAt
PARTIES.
The loses of the Republican Party in the
leceut elections have been made the subject
of discussion by the press of both parties.
Various causes have been assigned to ac
count for them. Taking both sides we find the
causes altogether sum up about as follows
apathy in the Republican ranks, the effort to
elevate the negro and grant him the same
I protection of person and property as the
| white men —to restrain the tido ol druuk
! eimess and crime that is flooding the land,
j hv stringent license laws, and to sustain the
I time honored and divinely commanded ob
servance of the Sabbath day. i hesc em
i brice the sum of the worst charges that.
• ven our enemies can make against, us.
Apathy in times, such as tie preset)', is
-carccly less than a crime. With this ex
i option no party ever lias been or even will
be finally defeated while it preserves such a
record in the face of the most bitter enmi
ty. Such charges coming from its enemies
constitute the most eloquent tribute that
any political party either in the pastor the
present has ever received. The Republic
an party has never countenanced the bring
ing of moral questions into the political
arena, but the leaders and the great major
ity of the party being eminently moral and
sober, its enemies have persistently charged
upon it a desire to interfere with the laws !
on these subjects, thereby hoping so to
identify the Republicans as the originators
and upholders of all laws imposing moral
restraints upon the people, as to bring all
the opposers of these movements, the Sab
bath breaker, and the drunkard into their
ranks. In this they have in a measure suc
ceeded. The Republican party may well be
proud of its peculiar position in this res
pect. It is a noble one and to its truthful
ness its enemies bear willing testimony.
Hut it is not a good omen for the country
when political parties each striving for the
management of the government of the
country, endeavor to array the friends of any
moral reform movement on one side or the
other. The inevitable result of any such ef
fort is to limit the usefulness and success of
the movement and at the same time embit
ter political contests. It is certainly much
better that each party should avoid pander
ing to vice and immorality for political pur
poses. and that there should be a sufficient
sober, moral, peacable, and law abiding ele
ment in any party lo direct its policy in the
interest of the great moral principles under
lying all Government and which are the
recognized conservators of our religious and
civil liberty.
THE Copperheads of Pennsylvania have
been unceasing in their charges of corruption
against the Republican party. The party
has never existed in which corrupt men did
not find a place and probably never will.
Kven in the Pennsylvania Legislature the
few Copperheads that are there show a lar
ger proportion of corrupt men than the Re
publicans if their votes for the mouoply, the
chief criterion, are to be taken as an index.
Another difference is the Republican, while
exposing the corruption of the opposition
dare to denounce and oust whenever possible
such of their own number as are found wan
ting in integrity. The Cops invariably re
fuse to see the corruption of their own mem
bers and do their utmost to hide it from the
honest men of their own party
THE time has come when the independent
Republican Press of Pennsylvania should
throw overboard the dead weight of faction
alism which has characterized a number of
its leaders. The Republican Party has been
carrying too much dead weight and we call
upon our cotemporaries to assist us iu igno
ring it. We have been the tools of a few
men much too long and the injury is almost
irreparable. There is brains enough and
money euough in the party to sustain it
without it being the vehicle of a few leaders
who know nothing but self.
THE Republican party in the canvass,
which has just closed, was charged with be
ing in favor of temperance, Sunday liquor
laws, opposed to Sunday ears and every mea
sure intended as reforms according to thcii
acceptation by the public. A friend sug
gests that we have been fighting the devi
and the Copperhead party about lonp
enough, and that in the future we had bet
ter turn our attention to the Copperhead
party alone. This is no doubt a verv good
suggestion because the defeat of that party
will be sufficient humiliation for his Satanic
majesty.
The Oops by out-generaling the He pub
licansmost handsomely, getting out almost
their entire vote, have a beggarly majority
of six or eight hundred in the State. What
chance will they have in a contest in which
the Republicans get out their vote? A
friend used to illftstrate matters of this kind
by saying ''about as much chance as a cat
in tophet without claws."
THEY never have any Agricultural l-'aira
in Pulton County or they would have better
specimens of poultry. This is evident from
the hard specimen exhibited by the Dnno
crat last week. That find looked as if he had
been into a severe fight and escaped with
nothing but the mere skeleton.
THE Philadelphia daily New* contains ar.
article headed a "Mad Dog." We don't
know any better subject for just such a cap
tion than the editor of the New t, provided
the orthography of the adjective were re
versed.
THE Republicans of Ohio have elected
their candidate for Governor, Gen. Hayes,
by a majority ol' three or four thousand. They
have carried lowa, also, by a majority of
twenty-five thousand. All is not lost that
is in danger.
THE Pittsburgh AW thinks "The day of
Reason" has come. Tom Paine thought
it was the "AGE of Reason." Copperheads
and infidels accord iu views.
COPPER-JOHNSON PROGRAMME DKVEL
OIMNO. —Since the election the Cops of this
region are already busy discussing their next
Presidential ticket. The latest proposition,
and the one received with most favor is to
nominate Johnson for President and Gen.
Leo for Vice President. We expect to see
Jeff Davis substituted instead of Johnson.
A pure rebel ticket will no doubt he most
popular with them.
WE would call attention to an article in
tfnother column from the Pittsburgh Cum
mereial, relative to the organization of a
new railroad project for the southern tier of
counties. Wo hope that the project will be
successfully put on foot and our people will
do all they can pecuniarily to assist in its con
struction.
THE Pittsburgh Pott gets up a Copper
head pyramid, which we presume it does on
the principle of a robber, who lias, after
considerable flight, appropriated the goods of
another and exclaims "these arc my goods."
For instance, Ohio, lowa, Maine, j;e. , &c.,
THE Elections in Louisiana and Alabama
have resulted in considerable majorities for
Conventions to amend the Consttntiona of
those states in accordance with the provi
sions of the lleconstruction law.
THE Pittsburgh /savs the election
news was received with great pleasure in
Richmond, Virginia. The unreconstructed
rebels receive Copperhead victories with as
much gusto and jubilation as they did during
the rebellion.
THE Copperhead Party sustains the unen
viable recoid of pandering to every evil
prejudice, passion, wickedness and crime for
the purpose of making votes. Can such a
Party triumph?
ALMOST every Irishman you meet hurrahs
for the Fenians and damns the "Nagur."
They favor freedom for themselves and their
friends, and slavery for the negroes. Strange
consistency.
THE Cops have gone back en Andy since
the elections and Andy has done likewise
with them. Ruth parties have resolved
themselves into a mutual admiration society.
l.\ the Republican State Convention at
RaUitnore, a resolution was adopted sixty
four to seventeen, recommending the nomi
nation of General GRANT for President.

Ex -ADJUTANT GENERAL Rt WELL. —
When A. L. Russel was called to take
charge of the Adjutant General's office of
Pennsylvania, from seeing a mere nominal
position whose duties required only a super
vision of one or two State arsenals, it had
suddenly grown to that of a department
holding sway over a hundred thousand sol
diers. " It will be inferred from this simple
fact that it required a man of more than or
dinary ability, a hand of more than every
day business power to comprehend the
workings and guide the development of such
an operation. Rut Gen. Ru-sell at once
made himself master of the situation. He
had sagacity, energy, fore-sight and inflexi
ble will, while at the same time, even when
seemingly unbending in the performance of
his delicate duties, no man can say that he
ever received from Alexander L. Russell
other than tho most courteous treatment,
nor can any soldier assert that he ever suf
fered a wrong at his hand-'. We write this
because we know exactly what we record;
and because we desire to do a faithful offi
cer justice on his retirement. Gen. Russell
will always have rc-a-ori to be proud of his
official acts. His energy aided largely in
getting out Pennsylvania troops, and his
promptness contributed greatly in putting
those troops into the field. These are his
torical facts which will be elaborated more
fully when the history of Pennsylvania's
great service to the Governnu nt i- written.
We pait with Gen. Russell with regret.
His social relations in IJarrisburg have al
ways been of the best, and few men have
served in official connection in this city, who
left Harrisburg with more of the good wish
es of the people than Wen. Rus-01l will ta'-e
away.
—Wc understand Gen. Russell is a candi
date for Clerk of the House. He has am
ple ability for that position, having hereto
fore served as Clerk of the same hotly.—

AN EXAMPLEFOR CHRISTIAN Rt LERS.—
While tho Greek Catholics, the Mat-unites,
and even the MohammedausofSyria strictly
observe the Sabbath, suspending all ordinary
business and labor, then Roman catholic,-
generally spend it in amusement and dissi
pation. During the Easter festivities, the
Mohammedan governor of Mount Lebanon
visited the town of Rerel Kamcr, and w
called upon by the Roman catholic bishops
and priests. During the interview lie com
plained that the shops of their parishioners
were kept open on Sunday, and business
went on as on other day-, gr<,t!y to tKo Jet
rfment of the people. They replied that
they could not stop it, as the people would
not obey them, when he said that lie would
help them enforce obedience, and would im
prison any uian who opened hi- hop on
that day. The order was i--ued and cxecu
ted, und after a few arrests the nuisance was
abated.
THE WEST SENDING LIGHT TO THE EAST.
—The Japanese, once the most seelusive,
hid fair to beceme the most enlightened oi
Eastern nations. They are sending (o this
country and Europe deputations of their
eminent men to investigate and become
familiar with the improvements of modern
civilization, and several of their intelligent
young n.en are now pursuing their education
here. Six well educated young men of rank
are in the academy at Monson, Mass., under
the patronage ofthc leading prince of Japan
for the purpose of acquiring a thorough
knowledge of the English language, ft is
gratifying to know that, without any attempt
at proselyting them, their own logical per
ceptions have already traced the superiority
of the Western nations to the elevating in
fluences of Christianity.
PERSECUTION OE JEWS.--The Jews of
Roumauia have been the victims of bitter
persecution, at the instication of the gov
ernment, whose Minister of the Interior, 31.
Bratiano, had been a prominent liberal be
fore bis accession to power. He hasordcrcd
that they be deprived of their legal rights
and expelled from their farms and houses,
and arrested as rogues and vagabonds.
This so excited the fanaticism of the people
that a general massacre was threatened.
Tho governments of England and .France
have interfered in their behalf.
ALL THAT GLITTERS. I* MOT GOLD.—The
bu-incss of counterfeit ing preeiona jewels is
carried Oil very extensively and euceessfully.
There are several Urge luanufactories in
I'aris, and two-thirds of the l< tench jewel
department in the exposition was occupied
by sham jewelry. In one case thorn wore
six rows of pearls, three real pearls worth
15,000 fraDea, ami three artificial worth 150
francs; yet only a jeweller or a pawnbroker
could distinguish the true from the false,
showing how easily tin- unskilled can lie de
ceived in these beauliful articles of luxury.
WHERE THE Gout GOES. —It has been esj
tiniatod rhut 15 per cent of the annual gold
product is niched down for manufactures,
35 per cent goes to Europe, -o to < una, 15
to Braiil. and 5 percent to China, Japan, I
and the East Indies, leaving hut 5 per cent
for circulation in this country. Of that
which goes to Cuba ami Brazil, fulll 50 per
cent finds its way to Europe, four-fifths of
which is exported to India, where, as has
been the custom for ages, it is absorbed and
hoarded up, and never returns to the civili
zed world.
