The Spirit of IS-IO revived Bed ford
County proclaims her adhesion
to Grant, and indicates the
triumphant election of
lion. .John Cessna by
the round number
ICOO.
Tuesday last was a proud day for the Re
publicans of Bedford County. If any doubt
ha-J previously existed iu regard to her fealty,
that doubt wa.> dispelled by the subsequent
effulgent glory, and bright as the beautiful
sun that shone on the exultant multitude,
were the prospects engendered in au hour.
About noon a large delegation from the
VI estern p art of the County came pouring into
town, and wended its way to join the mighty
concourse from the East. The streets ware;
lined and crowded with au impatient throng
eager to behold the grand pageant that Was
momentarily expected. Finally all were
electrified by ibe distant, Iriumpbaut tread of
this young army ol Republicans, and a
cavalcade Ushered into towu, the procession
headed by the Huntingdon Silver Cornet
Band, all tastefully clad in the blue livery of I
their country. Theu followed a vast number!
of vehicles, of ai. kinds and soon were heard
the clarion notes ol our own band, lite
procession having moved through a number
of the priucipai streets, and a moiety of the
people having obtained a hasty refreshment, :
the meeting was duiy organized in the public I
square by J. \V. Lingenfelter, Esq., who ;
moved the appointment of the following
officers:
President, C.UT. JOHN S. STUCKEY,
Vice Presidents,—C. W. Ashcorn. J. M.
Barndoilar. George B. Amick, Dr. John C. !
Eaiy, Peter Deremer,
Secretary, —D. S. ELUOTT.
Hon. K. Stoekett Mathews, of Maryland,
was then introduced and though possessed of •
a powerful voice, be could not be distinctly I
heard by the entire audience, but by his j
brilliant oratory held the greater number. I
For one hour and a haif he poured a torrent
of shell into the broken ranks of the disor- j
gar.ized aiid dispirited Copperhead Demo
cracy, and with inimitable skill and the
grandest oratory entranced the listening, ad
miring populace. To attempt a description of!
of his consummate art. exquisite chastity o l !
thought, miid pathos, withering rebuke, and
finally his matchless satire, and irrepressible
with, life like picture of the faciie Seymour
and burning invective towards the revolu
tionary demagogue. Frank P. Blair, to attempt
to give even a taint idea of his speech, 1
would be injustice. At the conclusion of his j
remarks the meeting adjourned with three
cheers for Cessna, and three cheers tor Grant, !
Coltax and giory. to meet in the evening, in :
the Court House.
NIGHT MEETING.
Seven o'clock found as large and intelli- 1
gent a mass of persons a3 were ever packed
within the Court House. Every aisie and !
passage way was crammed with this living ,
tide of humanity which, with difficulty, bad j
worked its way into every available and pos- |
sible recess.
Concentered within the circle of the bar, I
was a brilliant assemblage of the fair creation i
presenting the wit and beauty of Bedford, ;
and setting off in pleasing relief a maguificient I
auditorium.
Charming music by the Huntingdon Band j
sr ipirited the occasion, and banners bearing
-ignincant mottoes adorned the room.
The meeting was presided over by J. W. j
Lingeuielter, Esq. The orator of the evening !
not havi- g arrived at the time of calling the I
meeting to order. W. M. flail Esq, was called j
upon, aud filled the interim, with a brief,
earnest, and eloqueat address.
it being announced that the Hon. MAULON
( HAM of, Ohio, was in the room be was ;
greeted upon the stage with 'enthusiastic j
cheers.
Mr. Chance is a natural orator, bold, effective
and logical. Well directed sledge hammer
l/iuw- did he inflict upon the enemy, bearing
•iowu beneath his convincing logic, the !
iusory schemes and fragile support of a j
dissolving party of rebels. Words of ours are ;
ineffectual to depict the breadth of view, the !
graud conception, and the warm out gush of j
uanly sentiment, of this great speaker. How j
truly d.d be delineate the great cheittain, the j
roundest of men. General Grant, and that pure •
"-'atesman. and gentlest of gentlemen Schuy- j
■ r Coliax, and with what terrible scorn did
tie denounce that demagogical cheat and
blatant traitor Frank Blair. How he lifted
the veil of hypocrisy from these masked
rebels who are forever sighing about the
: altona 1 debt, and whose ululations about
the taxes freight every dismal wind. At last j
when he came to speak of curability to pay
our honest debts according to the ■< tier ana
spirit of the law. of our untuid resources,
our undeveloped treasures, our imm-iii-e
tides of emigration, and the future grandeur
and glory of the Republic, the vast audience
broke f-ath in n-tcrt . cheer*. Truly
Coppesbtadisiii U >queu.ued in this locality.
BLAIR la BEDFORD!
The Grandest Fliile of the Campaign:
Only 500 persons to henr and see the
Elephant!
The good people of this quiet town were
astonished, a week or ten days previous to
last Thursday evening, on reading a flaming
poster, distributed broadcast over this com
munity, announcing that General Frr.ncis P.
Blair, jr.. Democratic candidate for Vice-
President, would address the citizens of Bed
ford county, on Thursday evening, the Ist iost.
Here was a rich treat in prosoective. Here
would be a splendid opportunity for the Demo
cratic masses to pay their respects to the man
upon whom they are endeavoring to confer
national honors. Here, for the first time in
the history of the place, a candidate for the
Presidency or Vice-Presidency of uny party,
was heralded to speak to the people of Bed
ford county during the canvass preceding the
election at which he expected to have the
honors conferred. It was supposed that the
men of all parties, of nil races, colors and
conditions would turn out to hear, and at
least to see, the standard bearer of a great
political party in the heat of the canvass, es
pecially ss it was the first time that the place
was to be honored with such a visit. Well, —
and we are loath to tell it—the day came, aye,
the very hour. The side-walks were not
thronged with people, nor were the bar-rooms
filled with the usual number of bloated visa
ges, so characteristic of a Democratic mset
ing. nor were there great delegations on all
the roads awaiting the signal from gome dash
ing cavalier to enter the town, nor were there
many lasses ready to strew the pathway of
| the great Geueral with flowers, nothing but
| a few empty carriages, a few wagons, into
j which every passer by was blandly invited to
| be seated, free of charge, and await the de
nouement. Hours were spent in thus en
; Jeavoring to secure loads for the vehicles
| that were chartered. At last the ponderous
! delegation got uud-rway and headed for the
: Sprit g- where the great man was to be met
arid escorted into town. A friend at our
! elbow carefully checked off vehicle after ve
! hide as it rolled by and when the last boy
who "blushed like a rose'' careered past he
gravely announced SEVENTEEN men and boys,
all told.
This gorgeous procession met the brace of
Generals, Blair and McKaig, at the Springs,
and after the interchange of courtesies, con
.-isting of compliments and whiskey, the
grand escort, slowly and solemnly, wended
its way back to Bedford, around the town,
back to the Mengei House, where in the
presence of the assembled multitude of less
than one hundred men, boys and women, af
ter the elevation of the Vice-Presidential as
pirant on a bench, or platform, which requir
ed considerable bracing of the knees, and the
manifestation of much weakness in that quar
ter. O. E. Shannon, Esq., gave three weigh
ty reasons for the reception of the distin
guished gentleman aforesaid. Ist, because he
was Francis P. Blair, 2d, because he wa3
General Francis P. Blair, and 3rd, because
he was General Frauds P. Blair, junior. To
all of which the General smilingly replied,
developiug the fact that there was a slight
hesitation in his speech, owing, perhaps, to
his being tongue-tied, or embarrassed, or,,
what was more likely, wearied. Some |
naughty people were wicked enough to at
tribute it to the over-flow of spirits, wbioh
went alternately up and then down; this
could not have been the case however as the
demi john reported to have been found in the j
General's barouche, was empty, and, there
fore, useless.
Evening came, and with it came darkness,
but not the Democratic masses.' The streets
were as silent as when Sabbath invites to the
House of Prayer. Long visages could be
seen now and then thrust out of offices and
side doors; yet no relief came. Curses both
loud and deep we-.it at the head of the roan
who had tossed and won the Democratic ele
phant. But, there was no going back on the
show, the bills were out, the tickets sold and
the boys were dematidiug admittance. The
score or two who had come in single handed
from the country, were cursed until forbear
ar.ee ceased to be a virtue for not bringing
more. But the curtain had to lift and the
performance had to commence!
The Court room, capable when packed to its
utmost capacity of holding five hundred per
sons or less, was absolutely filled, as it has
been wont to be on all occasions of exhibition
of hocus-pocus, ledgerdentain, or monkey
show for years, with men, women and chil
dren. The great General Blair then pom
melled the Radicals to his heart's content. It
was the same old speeeh which "My brother,
Montgomery," tnade here two years ago, re
vised. Old Blair, you know, puts them to
gether and Fiank and Mongomery spout
them. It drdu't take very well among the
ultras but they gulped it down and thanked
the giver. The meeting fizzled out with a
speech horn McKaig or some other pop gun,
and the poor fellows who had to endure all
tbe agony and pay for tbe whiskey went to
bed and dreamed of glories departed.
The next morning the "sore-heads" were
in the majority, and with visages red and
full of blushes, to the number of four or
five, without a cheer or a "funeral knell,"
: the General was escorted oat of town, and
with sufficient "wood and water" to last
until tbe next station, sent ou his way, not
rejoicing, but "full ot it."
Thus ended tbe tarce and fizzle !
pREVAI K\-(-E OF A FeABXUI. DISEASE IX OUR
MlDST. —Dickens says:
"The first external revelation of the dry
rot in men is a tendency to lurk and lounge;
to be at street corners without intelligible
reason: to !>e going anywhere when met; to
be about many places rather than any; to do
nothing tangible but to have an intention of
performing a number of tangible duties to
morrow or tbe day after."
Pry rot has long prevailed in Bedford.
Her famous Mineral waters are of no avail
when iu deadly virus has once been implant
ed in tbe human system. There seems to be
no remedy that will either relieve or cure tbii
dire malady. The man once attacked by it is
hopelessly lost. Like the Devil-fish of Victor
Hugo, with iu thousand attennae it environs
and slowly but surely drags tbera downward
to destruction. In some cases the attack is
sudden and the victim is speedily doomed.
In others it tortures its victim through long
years. In still others it geemg to be heredi
tary. It appearg to have a few peculiar fea
tures in tbe atmosphere of Bedford that have
not been enumerated by Dickens. There are
two signs that almost invariably indicate the
presence of dry rot; the one is a disposition
to drive fast horses and the other to borrow
aV.of a friend and forget to return it. At
a later stage its victims are irresistibly at
tracted to the neighborhood of ale-bouses
and bar rooms. This stage of the disease is
also generally accompanied by an extraordi
nary wakefulness at night and extreme drow
siness in the day time. One of the saddest
features of the malady is that not. only the
old bat tbe middle-aged and the young are all
alike liable to its attacks. Change of locali
ty or climate seems to have no beneficial ef
fect upon the poor victims and they generally
return rather worse than better. Recent in
vestigations have clearly demonstrated the
fact that the old-fogy character of Bedford is
to a great extent due to the very large cum
ber of her citizens who regularly and con
stantly fall victims to dry rot.
MAGXOLIA WATER.—A delightful toilet
article—superior lu Cologne, and V half the
price, St
CHARACTERISTIC COPPERHEAD MEASXKSS.—
Knowing .there was to be a grand Republican
rally on Tuesday the Spirit of Copperhead
hatred and meanness was at once set to work
devise means for annoying and insulting the
Republican procession. The first thing on
the programme, in perfect Keeping with the
spirit of Copperehadism, was to steal a wheel
off the band wagon. Finding that this would
not slop the band, the next thing in or
der was to insult the procession as it pa.-ed
through the towu. Being in day light, the
firing of pistols or throwing of stones at tbe
procession was not deeined]safe. But the next
meanest thing possible was done. A flag with
the names of the rebel Candidates, Seymour
and Blair, attached was hung across tbe
street where the procession would be obliged
to pass under it. We might have supposed
this last performance to be the work of a
few of the lackeys, of the party, who do the dirty
work of their masters, had we not seen some
of the leaders, who at least pretend to be
gentlemeo, looking ou and smiling approval.
Four years ago these same gentlemen Com
pelled a union man, by threats ol violence,
in the village of Rainsburg, to take the flag
down from his own house, when they were
only holding a Copperhead meeting in tbe
village. Consistency thou art indeed a
jewel. And Such men call themselves g-ntle
men 1
B LACES TANNERY. —Tbe mass meeting here
on Saturday, was another success. Tbe
weather was a little disagreeable but thst
matter was soon remedied. The crowd head
ed by the Band repaired to the larg- r.io n
in the 1 annery where the meeting was organ
ized by electing G. W. Williams as Presi
dent, Hezekiah May, Samuel Kerr, James
Wertz, and Singleton Sutors as Vice Presi
dents and Joseph C. May and Win. Hollar as
Secretaries. J. T. Keagy first addressed tbe
sieeting, he made a good practical speech,
well befitting the occasion. M. A. Points
was called for, and was ss be always has been
ready to toe the mark in defense of right and
justice. He discussed the issue of the day
in a forcible intelligible aud logical manner.
W. M. Hail Esq., followed with one of his
teliiug speeches wherein he exposed the
flimsy machinations of the Democratic lead
era, aud proved by. facts aud history the su
premacy of Republicanism. The meeting
adjourned with three rousing cheers for Grant
and Colfax and the whole Union Ticket.
COME TO GRUB. —We learu that the Demo
cratic Committee on Free-lunch, have made
immense preparations in a quiet way) to ac
commodate their democratic brethren whom
they could in no other way induce to come
out to hear them. Not even the chivalrous
Swann, the Bully of Baltimore and the Black
Eagle of the South, is sufficient bait to allure
these sturdy democrats from their plows, but
they have appealed to the sordid sense of ap
petite and uffer at the expense of the private
citizens of the borough, a free "pitch in'' at
the unpicked bones and the unexpended
benzine remaining on hand from the Blair
ovation. We have no doubt but that this
wing of hungry democracy will receive more
substantial satisfaction from a well stuffed
maw than they will comfort, from this would
be U. S. Seuator, and we advise the "curious
and those who have never seen the Grecian
Bend, to be on the look out for this squad of
democracy as there will be a fine opportunity
!to see the Grecian Bend in a new phase. It
! will appear in front this time.
NATURALIZATION EXTRAORDINARY.— On Tues
day of last week, at the adjourned Court, we
were a good deal surprised at the proceedings
in a case of naturalization. A German applied
for Naturalization on the ground of having
served iu the army. This was rail right and
proper, and thus far in accordance with the
laws. But when it came to an examination
of the case, the applicant, though in posses
sion of a discharge, and a man of a fair ,
degree of intelligence, did not know the letter
of the company in which he professed to
have served a year and a half and which was
written in his discbarge. On further exami- 1
r.ation he was unable to prove identity or a
residence of a single year in thecouutry. Iu
; the face of all these discrepancies the court
: granted letters of naturalization and the ap
plicant was made a citizen afier a style not
very tar removed from Wallace's Coffee pot
performances.
BLOODY RUN. —The club meeting at the
Run on Friday evening, was an entire suc
cess. It more resembled a mass meeting
than any thing else, every body turned out
and stayed till the meeting was over. Ihe
orators of the day were Messrs. Points and
Hollohan who as usual, did justice to them
selves, and to the cause they expouse. After .
the meeting adjourned the speakers and the ;
Bedford R. S. Cornet Band were invited to
the residence of our esteemed friend W. P.
Barndoilar where a dthcious Oyster snpper
awaited them. It is useless for us to say j
more, as the host and hostess were present
and saw how the treat was appreciated.
Success attend you Rilly.
A CARD.
BLOODY RUN Oct. 6. 1888
To the Editor of the Inquirer —DEAß SIR:
Certain copperheads have msde it their busi
ness to report that I will not vote for Mr.
Cessna, I wish to make it known through
your paper that I intend not only to
vote for Cessna, but I will do all in my powe r
to secure his election. I vote as I shot.
Yours Truly.
GEORGE MCDANIEL
PLAYING OFF —Some ol the Copperhead j
boys who went to Philadelphia last week on
the strength of discharge papers of dead
Union Soldiers, were very patriotic while
they were there —why? because they were on ,
a Sj/unging bumming" expedition and found
that it was to their interest to be Loyal.
Some of them came home without paying
tbe "little bills" tbey bad contracted at the
Hotels. Come now boys, if you have any re
spect at all for your democracy, pay up.
THE cops got up a huge bureau to repre
sent the Freedmen's Bureau and painted
some fellow black to represent a negro for
their great fizzle in this place yesterday. The
fellow looked about as much like a genuine
negro as a horse looks like an ass. The
cheat was too apparent and the fellow who
was the tool for this purpose was as much be
low the "dirty nigger'" as a hog is below the
highest order of creation.
THAT BIG EXCURSION. —The Cops in get
ting up their meeting for Frank P. Blair on
Thursday the lstinst., arranged for an excur
ion train from Huntingdon. An extra Car
was put on for tbe occasion and the tact
heralded over the land in flaming posters.
Result: three men bought tickets to come to
Bedford on business. Frank P. must have
feit quite flattered.
A VOTE taken on a Penna train north of
Harrisburg on Monday last stood lfl't for
Grant and Colfax aud. 41 for Seymour and
Blair. On another train same day it stood
124 for Grant and 55 for Seymour. On the
Huntingdon and Broad Top train, it stood 28
for Grant and Peace and 8 for Seymour Blair
and whiskey.

••How Chilly the Evenings in October!"
This i* a common remark, yet how few think of J
the danger of exposing themselves to their influ
j eoce? In all low, marshy localities Ague and
Fever prevail at this season of the year. In this
desease there is invariably more or less derange
ment of the liver and digestive organs. The
remedies usually resorted to have reference to
preventing the paroxysm or breaking up the
chill*. If this is effected without rein mag the
cause, * relape is inevitable. HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BlTTEKSstrike diiectiy at the foun
dation of the evil, by acting on the liver and cor
recting digestion. The cause being removed, the
paroxysm will cease, anu the chills cannot ictnrn.
When the patient is weak and debilitated, the
BITTERS should lie resorted to, as they will :
•trengthen and tone the stomach, allay all nervous
. irritation, and infuse renewed animation into the .
hitheito orooping spirit*, without entailing the
danger of reaction.
IIOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS is truly
| a preventive medicine, rendering even the feeblest
j frame impervious to all malarious influences: and,
as a stomachic and a *iti-billion* medicine it is
incomparable, and no one who value* hi* health can
afford to do without it. Fortify the system with
this inestimable tonic and invigorant, and the
"Chill* of October Evening* will have no terror

Tie Ckineee (internment hoeing (tkrongh the
Hon. Anton Bmrlingnme) conceded to tkie Compa
ny the privilege of connecting the great teaporte I
of the Empire by tnbmarine electric telegraph ca- 1
I We, we propoee commencing operation • in CTina,
and laying down a line of wine hundred milee at
; oner, between the following portt, viz :
Population, j
Canton 1,000,006
Macoa 60,000
Hong-Kong !5n,000
Swatow ..100,000
Amoy - 250,000
' Foo-Cbow 1,250,000 |
| Wan-Chn .100,000 i
Ningpo 400,000 i
Hang Chean ..1,200,000
Shanghai 1,000,000
Total 5,910,000 j
These ports have a foreign commerce of $960,-
000,000, and an enormous domestic trade, beside
i
which we have the immense internal commerce of
the Empire, radiatiDg from these points, through '
its canals and navigable rivers.
The cable being laid, this Company proposes j
erecting iand lines, and establishing a speedy and
trustworthy means cf communication, which mnst
command there, as everywhere else, the comma
mentions of the Government, of business, and of
< social life, especially in China. She has no pos
tal system, and ber only means now of communi
cating information is by couriers on land, and by
steamers on water.
The Western World knows that China is a
t very large country, in the main densely peopled:
but a few yet realise that she contains more than
a third of the bnman race. The latest returns
, made to her central authorities for taxing purpo
ses by the local magistrates make ber population
Four Hundred and Fourteen itillioue r and this is
more likely to be nnder than over the actual ag
gregate. Nearly all of these, who are over ten
years old, not only can but do read and write.
Her civilisation is peculiar, but her literature is
I
as extorsive as that of Europe. China is a land
of teachers and traders: and the Utter are ex- i
ceedingly quick to avail themselves of every j
proffered facility for procuring early information. \
It U observed in California that the Chinese make
great use of the telegraph, though it there trans
mits messages in English alone. To day great
numbers of fleet steamers are cwned by Chinese
merchants, and used by tnem exclusively for the
transmission of early intelligence. If the tele-
I graph we propose, connecting all their great sea
ports, were now in existence, it is believed that
its business would pay the cost within the first
two years of its surcessful operation, and would
steadily increase thereafter.
No enterprise commends itself as a greater de
gree remunerative to capitalists, and to our whole
people. It is of a vast national importance com
mercially, politically, and evangelically.
The stock of this Company has been unquali
fiedly recommended to capitalists and business
men, as a desirable investment by editorial arti
cles in the New York Herald, Tribune, World,
Time*, Poet, Rxpre*e, Independent, and in the
Philadelphia North Ameriean, Pre**, Ledger, In
quirer, Age, Bulletin and Telegraph.
