■MAT IS AT STAKE.
Our people are scarcely awake to the im
portance of the interests at stake in the j
pKOOnt At la uit-i*. . w.*
question of party control for three years.
The officers elected in the present campaign
will exercise a controlling influence in the
State for perhaps ten years. The Governor
and Senators elected on the 12th of October
will take part in the Congressional and leg
islative apportionments in 1871, which will
in all probability exert a controlling influ
ence for the next dccadc. Thus by the elec
tion of a copperhead Governor and benators
all the best interests of the State may be
sacrificed as they have been before. The
State may be committed to repudiation by
which every interest of the country would j
suffer, or it may be that the Congressional j
vote of the State would be thown in favor ;
of free-trade and all our industrial interests
and manufacturing enterprises be blighted
thereby. By a transfer of the State Govern
ment to copperhead hands wc would also be
once more burdened with increased debts
and taxes instead of having the present pol
icy of rapid reduction continued. There is
not an interest of the laboring man or the
tax payer that would not be endangered by
the election of the copperhead candidates.
The Supreme Court would be changed from
loyal to disloyal and one of the bitterest par
tisan of the State would be elevated to a po
sition for which he has not a single qualifica
tion. The result of his election would be
most disastrous to the character of our Su
preme bench, anu would change it from a
tribunal of justice to a mere machine for
partisan purposes, whenever any question
involving political questions should come
before it It iswhercfore of the highest im
parlance that the learned and distinguished
Judge Williams should be retained on the
Supreme bench and that the partisan petti
fogger Pershing should be permitted still
for a season to enjoy the quiet of the Jus
tices courts in Cambria county. There is
not an interest of the State that would not
suffer seriously from such a misfortune as a
copperhead victory. In view therefore of
the great importance of the issues let Re
publicans everywhere arouse and apply
iv 1 — .i, —a wotj iu .i.v
work oi placing the election of Geary and
Williams and the District ticket beyond 'a
peradventure. The questions of Retrench
ment and Reform, Protection and a safe
and sure completion of the work of Recon
struction demand imperatively of the people
that none but true and honest Republicans
be entrusted with the Government of the
State. We have a clear majority in the
State and need only to bring it out; but
the lethargy that pervades political circles
make it probable that, unless active tneas
urcs arc taken at once, we may not 1-e able
to get out a full vote, while our enemies by
dint of quiet but active work may bring out
a full vote and thereby defeat, us. Here is
our danger and uere is wh ie work is re
quired. Let no honorable means be left un
tried to briDg out the last vote and to se
cure every doubtful vote; a few days of dili
gent work will decide the matter. Let the
work be done without delav.
REPUBLICANS to the rescue! Our ene
mies are quietly but earnestly working.
Don t be deceived by any apparent lack of
interest. Packer sgold is paying thousand-*
for quiet but active work and our enemies
are straining every nerve to carry both the
Governor and Supreme Judge as well as the
Legislature. The Senators to be elected
will have a vote in both the Congressional
and Legislative apportionments of 1871 and
the copperheads are making a desperate ef
fort to secure the control of both houses so
as to be enabled to make the apportionment
to suit themselves. Such a calamity would
commit the State to repudiation, free tr le
and unbridled corruption. Be on the alert
active, vigilant and persevering, watch
every movementof the enemy—secure every
doubtful voter and see that weak or waver
ing Republicans are kept in the ranks.
Faithful, earnest, persevering work for the
next week or two will secure us the Gover
nor, Supreme Judge and Legislature beyond
a pcradventure. Lethargy now may lose
thcui all.
The Philadelphia Democracy arc still in
trouble. They first made a ticket that was
so Democratic that it was completely made
up of roughs, the whole being so notoriously
bad that decent people would not touch any
part of it. This ticket was withdrawn and
now they have put up a purely aristocratic
ticket, one on which a common man re
ceives no countenance whatever. The
transition is from one extreme to the other
and a ticket of purse-proud aristocrat
seems no more likely to heal their difficulties
than the one taken from the swill shop and
gutter. The first was a whiskey ticket and
the second is a rich man's ticket. The poor,
honest, laboring roan receives no countenance
or encouragement on either. He has no
place left but in the Republican ranks.
Coi'i'EHiiEAiiis.w would repudiate the
nationa' debt and make every greenback,
national bank note and Government bond
utterly worthless. It would make worthless
last dollar of the widow and orphan aod
eprive thorn of board and clothing to curry
favor with unrepentant rebels. Repudiation
is nothing more nor less than a bid for
rebel votes. \\ hat honest roan, what poor
uian, what soldier can support such a
ticket ? Ihe election of Packer would be
the first step toward national disgrace and
national bankruptcy and general distress
and trouble throughout the length and
breadth of the land. Vote for Geary.
DON T fail to attend the Republican
meeting on next Tuesday evening, Marshall
and Bigham will undoubtedly be here.
Let there be a grand rally that will strike
{error into the hearts of the Copperheads.
ARE YOU REGISTERED.
Let every one examine the Registry list
in his township and see that he is properly
registered. All names must be registered
at least ten days before the election, it is
the duty of the Assessors to keep a list of
all registered names on the door of the place
of election, from August Ist until ten days
before the election, so that all may be able
to see whether thev are registered or not.
The defacing or carrying away of these lists
is punishable with fine and imprisonment.
Let every Republican voter at once make
j sure that he is registered. Ijct there be no
I delay.
How TO VOTE. —At the coming election
there will be tour different tickets voted.
One will be herded "Judiciary" forjudge;
of the Supreme Court, one headed "State" j
for Governor, one headed "County for I
Senator, Representatives and the county
ticket, aod one headed "Township" or
"Borough" for the township or borough
tickets. Our friends in the various town
ships will find the whole very much simpli
fied by having their township tickets print
ed. A couple dollars will pay for the tick
ets and the trouble of writing wili thereby
be obviated and the work of the election
officers greatly facilitated. Let the nomi
nations of township officers be made as soon
as possible, at furthest by Saturday of next
week the 2d of October. Then let some one
see to getting the tickets printed at once.
This can be done by coming directly to this
office or sending by letter a list of the candi
-1 dates and the number of tickets wanted and
I wc will print tlicm and send back by return
I mail. Let our friends in every part of the
[ country see to these things without delay.
2t.
SHALL it be said of Pennsylvania that her
people love gold more than patriotism ?
Will they elect Geary toe brave soldier or
Packer the bloated bondholder, the purse
proud aristocrat and railroad and coal mo
nopolist ? Will they choose for a ruler the
man who has risked his life in sixty battles
for his country or the skulking miser who
sneaked away to a foreign land in the day i
of his country's peril? Who can hesitate?
No more lasting disgrace could be inflicted
upon our State than the election of Packer.
Pennsylvania will honor herself by re-elcet
ing Geary.
ALL who arc opposed to rich aristocrats
and railroad monopolists ruling our State
must now go to work for Geary with a will.
Eternal Vigilance is the price of Liberty—
Lethargy will lose us everything. There is
no danger but in a false sense of security. !
We have a clear majority of 15,000 in the
State all we have to do is to bring it to the
poll--. This must be done in spite of every
oh-taelc. Bring out our whole vote and
Geary and Williams will be surely and easily
elected.
Now that the Income lists are to he re
vised Asa Packer will tremble in his boots.
He will have an opportunity yet to pay the
$32,000 which he cheated the government
out of by evading the payment of his honest
taxes. Truly these must be days of tribu
lation for Asa ; the cops are bleeding him
profusely and I'nele Sam's officers are look
ing up the little arrears of taxes in away
that indicates business. Honesty is the
be>t policy, Asa. Next time pay your taxes
like an honest man and you will avoid these
humiliating exposures.
PACKER'S friends have never dared to
deny that for several years past be has
regularly cheated the government, out of
more than TntRTV Turn's AND dollars of
taxes and escaped by the payment of $8 or
$9. Is such dishonesty to be encouraged
by giving him possession of the government
of the State. If he robs the state as a
private citizen what will he do as a public
officer ? Away with such rogues. We want
honest men for state officers. Vote for
Geary.
TOWNSHIP ELECTIONS.— Our friends in
the various townships and boroughs are
urged to attend to the nomination of their
towndiip tickets. Let good men he nomi
nated and then see that they are elected.
Justices of the Peace Boards of election,
Supervisors, School Directors Ac., are to be
elected. Let the nominations be promptly
made and the tickets printed so as to
facilitate work on election day.
FREE-TRADE and repudiation arc the fa
vorite mea-ures of the copperhead party.
Tito fit st will reduce the laboring poor man
a? near to slavery as it is possible to get
since slavery has been abolished, and the
other would bankrupt the government and
cast tlie maimed and crippled heroes who
saved our country, with the widows and or
phan- of our gallant dead, adrift to depend
upon charity for their daily bread. Who
can vote the ticket of such a party ?
LOOKING WTO THE MATTER — The In
terna! Revenue Department finding the in
come assessments to have been incompletely
and imperfectly taken, has ordered a revi
sion of the income list with a view to catch
ing many who have managed to evade the
payment of taxes honestly due the govern
ment. There is some work of that kind to
be done in this community.
FRIENDS to work ! the time is short, the
election is only a little more than two weeks
off, whatever is done must l>c done quickly.
See that all are registered. Look after
any doubtful voters and see that they arc
cared for and properly enlightened on the
important issues of the campaign. Don't
lose a single day. Urge every man to work
on>l oomplote your arrangements for bring
ing out every vote.
PACKER, the millionaire shirked $32,000
of taxes and only paid $8,96. Is such a
man fit to be-Governor. The people want
an honest man and will accordingly vote for
Geary.
REGISTER! REGISTER!
Saturday October 2d, will be the last day
in which you can be registered. See that
every Republican voter is registered before
that time. Below we give the names of
the Assessors of the respective election dis
tricts to whom application should be made

THE copperhead party HAS always been
, controlled by aristocrat". First the slave
holders controlled it; now such millionaires
as Packer who made their money by cheat
ing the government during the war. have it
in charge. First, last and all the time it
has been and is the party of a purse-proud
aristocracy.
DEMOCRATIC rule is bearing its legitimate
fruits in Philadelphia. Under the present
democratic Mayor and police, it is averag
ing one murder per day. Such are the
ftuits of the copperhead rule. Do the peo
ple want it extended ? If they do not, let
them vote for Geary and Williams.
THE Philadelphia copperheads openly
threaten riot and bloodshed at the polls on
i election day. It is the ouly way they have
i any hope of carrying thu election. Truly
! copperheadism seems to have fallen to the
lowest depths of barbarism. How cau re
spectable men act with such a party.
RKMXMBSR that the County finances im
peratively demand a change of administra
tion. Copperhead ism has utterly failed to
help us out of the slough of debts and taxes
but has got us in deeper instead. Let all
who want a ehange in the management of
: county hffairs vote the Republican ticket.
WHO will the people have for Governor, j
Geary the gallant soldier, or Packer the ;
miserly millionaire ?
POLITICAL ITEMS.
THE Ohio copperheads have already been
detected in ctduL'taiug for the coming elec
tion. This fact, taken in connection with
the unloading of jails by Democratic jailors, j
shows that the gallant Democracy of Ohio j
is going strong for Pendleton and Victory. ;
THE Massachusetts Democratic State i
Convention resolved it to be "a political duty
to acquiesce in settled results, and postpono
fruitless opposition to the accomplished ■
facts of yesterday"—which means that re- j
construction and negro suffrage are "accom- I
plished facts."
THE Democracy of Massachusetts say that
tbey have no new views to advance. This
is a very frank way of expressing them
selves, to say the least. Dejuaeraey gener
ally means opposition to any and everything
the Republicans do, without regard to its i
propriety or rightfulness.
SENATOR SHERMAN says that a Republi- j
can Congress passed a homestead law, the |
last Dcmocratie Pre.-idcnt, Buchaunan, ve
toed it, and it was only when we had a Re
publican President and Congress that such a
law was passed and went into opcratiou.
Now the Democrats meet in convention and
solemnly declare that they are in favor of
free homesteads.
AT the breaking out of the rebellion,
when the three-months' volunteers were
raised, Asa Pucker gave soo towards their
equipment This generous donation from
the possessor of twenty millions it seems is
expected to offset four years' service upon
the battle-field, which was .John W. Geary's
contribution to bis country in her hour of
need.
WHILE Gov. Geary was refusing to be the
instrument of the slave drivers and border
ruffiians in Kansas, and was nobly standing
up therefor freedom, Mr. Packer was in
Congress humbly and servilely following the
load of Toombs, Wigfall, and other fire cat
ers, in their plana to haud over all our free
; territory to the slavery interests.
CARBON COENTV. during the war, appro
priated an abundance of money to enable
suc-h West Pointers as the son of Asa Packer,
;to keep entirely clear of the draft. When
the county needed funds, old A.-a Packer
i picked up his carpet bag and made tracks
j for Philadelphia, where lie had himself as
! scssed as a resident, and thus got clear of
i paying his share of the debt. That was
i smart—wasn't it?
AT White Haven, on the Lehigh Valley
Railroad, when the news of Asa Packer's
nomination for Governor was received, in a
few hours afterward large placards were
hung out at the drinking places, announcing
"Packer Whisky Free!" Whether Mr.
Packer is still furnishing "whisky free" to
his friends wo do not know, but we arc as
sured he is fully aware of its efficacy as an
electioneering agent.
THE officers' platform at the Democratic
nominating convention of Montgomery coun
ty, broke down, and a delegate had his leg
broken. A new platform was immediately
built, with whisky barrels for its founda
tion, and after that, things went on natur
ally. The nomination to the State Senate
after being declined by several persons was
accepted by his friends for Hon. Owen
■Tones, who is at present in Europe.
THE Methodist congregation at Wcather
ly, Carbon county, desired to build a church
a short time ago. They called on the Hon.
Asa Packer with a view of obtaining suffi
cient land from him, either by purchase or
gift, to erect said house of worship. Al
though Mr. Packer owned from two to three
hundred acres of land in one body adjoining
the town, he refused to sell or give them
any grouud in a suitable place for the pur
pose. Such is Packer's liberality!
IT is reported that Asa I 'acker does not
hope to bo elected. His principal desire to
be Governor of Pennsylvania arose from a
determination to effect if possible certain
railroad advantages for New York. This
has become so generally known and felt
among leaders of his own party opposed to
the project to injure their own State, that
efforts to secure his defeat will not be want
ing even among those who aided to place
him in nomination. I'ackcr knows this and
expects to be defeated.
DIGEST OF THE REGISTRY LAW.
The following synopsis or digest of the
act approved April 17, 1860, entitled "An
Act further supplemental to the act relative
to the elections of this Commonwealth,"
commonly called the "RtyUtry Law," has
been carefully prepared by the Republican
Executive Committee of Allegheny county.
It exhibits the various things necessary to
be done under the provisions of so much of
said act a? applies to the State at largo, in
cluding the duties to be performed by the
commissioners, assessors, election officers
Ac.
I. DUTIES OK ASSESSORS.
Dy section 1, of the Registration Act,
each assessor is required to take up the
transcrip, or list of taxablcs resident within
his district, furnished him by the commis
sioners of the county under the provisions
of the act of April 15, 1854, section 8, re
lating to the assessment of taxes.
In almost every district names will be
found on this list of transcrip, of persons
who are not legal voters. It is made the
duty of each assessor to commence the re
vision of this list on the first Monday of
June in each year. He is required,
1. To strike from the list the name of
every person who is known by him to have
died, or removed from the district, since the
last previous assessment, or in other words,
since the said list was made out.
2. 110 shall also strike from the said list
the names of all such persons as shall have
been made known to him to have died or
removed from the district
3. He shall add to the saino list the names
of such persons as he shall know to be quali
fied voters, and who shall be known to him
to have removed into the district since the
last previous assessment.
4. He shall also add to such list the names
of such persons, qualified voters, as shall
be made known to him to have removed
into said di.-tiiet since the last previous as
seas went.
Under this Ith article it is proper to re
mark that assessors should add to the list
the nauie of no person not known to thent
without satisfactory evidence that such per
sons had not only moved into the district
since the last previous assessment, but also
that they were legal voters.
5. Fie shall also add to the said li~t the
names of all person" who shall make claims
to hint to bo qualified voters in his district
And here again under this sth article, i
is proper to say that the assessor should no
add to his list the name of any person mak
ing c'aim to him to be qualified voter iw hk
district if the assessor knows him to lx>eith
er a non resident of the district, or f! a resi
dent, not a legal voter. And if the per
son making such claim be wliolly unknown
to the assessor, it is hi* duty to require of
the person so claimisg to have his name
added to the list, ckar and satisfactory proof
both of his residence within the district and
of his legal righc to vote.
0. So soon ss the assessor shall have com
pleted the revision of bis list, in the manner
before stated, it is his duty to take his list,
so revised, and visit every dwelling house in
his district, and ascertain, by careful inqui
ry, if any person whose name still remains
on his list has died or removed from the dis
trust and, and if so, to strike such uamefrom
the list, lie will aNo carelully inquire so
as to ascertain whether any qualified voter
resides in his district whose name is not on
the list, and if so to add such name to his
list. The assessor should be caicful to add
no name to his list without being fully sat
isfied, either from his own personal knowl
edge, or lrom .-.atisfactory evidence that the
person whose name is so added to \he list is
a legal voter and a bona J'ule resideu of the
district.
7. In all cases of the addition of a lame
to his list by the assessor, he shall assess a
tax forthwith to such persons ; and the as
sessor shall in all such cases ascertain by
j inquiry, upon what ground the person so
assessed claims to be a voter.
From this provision of the act it will be at
onee seen the dutv of the assessor is to see
personally, in all eases of additions to the
list, every person whom he registers within
his district. He should register the name
of no person at the instance or request of a
third party, bat only at the instance of the
person to be registered himself, and then
only upon the personal knowledge of the
assessor of the applicant's right to register,
or upon sufficient evidence of such right.
8. Upon the completion of the registra
tion, the assessor is to prepare analphabcti
eul list of the white freemen, above twenty
one years of age claiming to be qualified
voters iu his district, and opposite each
name he shall state whether such alleged
voter is or is not a housekeeper, and if a
housekeeper he shall note the street and
number of his house, if lying in a town
where the houses are numbered, or the
names of the streets, alleys or court if in a
town where the houses are not numbered.
If the person registered be not a house
keeper, the assessor will note upon bis list
of voters the place of boarding of the ier.-on
registered, and the name of the person with
whom he boards, and in all cases he will
note the occupation of the person for whom
he is working. He will also write apposite
the name of each person registered the word
"voter."
9. No a-scssor should register any person
claiming to vote by reason of his being
naturalized, until such person exhibits to
him his certificate of naturalization, unless
such person shall have been a voter in such
district for five consecutive years next pre
ceding such registration.
10. The name of every person registered
by reason of naturalization should be marked
with the letter "N." But if the person has
only declared his intention to become a citi
zen, intending to be naturalized before the
next election, the name shall be marked
"D. I.
11. \\ hen the person registered claims to
vote because oi his being between the ages
of twenty-one and twenty-two, the assessor,
at the time of registering him, should write
opposite his na.ne the word "age."
12. If the person registered has moved
into the district to resile, since the last]
general election, the n.-*e?sor should plac)
the letter "II" opposite his nsmc.
13. Upon the completion of the list ffj
registration and assessment by the |
it is made lus duty, by the second sector-of |
the aci, forthwith to return the samcxi the j
commissioners of the county, who bonld .
cause duplicate copies of the said list with '
the observations and explanations, to be '
made out as soon as practicable, which
duplicate copies they arc to place k the j
hands of the as-C Mr, whose duty it i.made j
to put one copy thereof on the door f, or |
on the house where the election of tb dis- j
trict is required to be held, and to retin the
other in his po, session for the inspection of I
any voter in the district who may de.-ie to
see i h • saro \
14. It is further made the duty of each :
assessor, from time to time, to add, q the i
personal application of any one claimkgthe j
richt to vote, the name of such clap ant, j
marking apposite the name "(J. v.,"
meaning thereby that the person clams a
right to vote, and immediately to isse=s j
such person with a tax, noting, as a all
other cases, hi- occupation, rcsience.
whether a boarder or housekeeper; if a
boarder, with whom he boards, and wtetber j
naturalized or designing to be natunized !
15. Any person BO claiming to be asassed j
and registered, who has been, or clais to I
have been naturalized, shall, at the tine he
applies to be a-p.-sed, exhibit to the as
seseor his certificate of naturalization; and if
he claims that he designs to be naturalized
before the next election, he shall cxliilit
the certificates of his declaration of in
tention-.
10. No as-essment or registration of an'
names shall he made within ten days ncxi
before any election, by any a-scssor, unde
a penalty of fine not exceeding one hundred
dollars or imprisonment not exceeding threi
months, or both such fine or imprisonment.
17. After the assessments have been cons
pleted, on the tenth day before the soconi
Tuesday in October, in each year, (and tin
same before each presidential election,) tin
assessor shall, on the Monday immediately
following, make a return to the county
commissioners of the names of all person,
assessed by him since his previous return.
11. DUTIES OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
1. It is made the duty of the county com
ruissioners to furnish the assessors with thd
list of taxablc3 or transcript required by the
eighth^section of the act of April 15, 1834.
2. Upon the return by the assessors ol

111. DUTIES OF ELECTION OFFICERS.
I. It is the duty, under the registration

The New Dominion.
HALIFAX, Sept. 13 —The steamship
Hornet put to sea hurriedly last night. She
shipped a lot of hard characters at this port
at high wages, and took on board a quantity
of coal. There is little doubt that she is
bound for Cuba.
RESOLUTIONS FAVORING ANNEXATION.
QUEBEC, Sept. 14. —AT an annexation
meeting, held hero on Sunday afternoon,
the following resolutions were adopted :
First. For many years past we have seen
with deep regret our real estate sink rapidly;
our ship-building interest disappear, per
haps forever; our magnificent, water-powers,
the ereatcst in the aggregate of any single
locality on this continent, rush wildly past
our doors and our youth, the flower of our
population, flying to the United States in
countless thousands, from the desolation
which seems to have marked our city as its
own.
Second. The difference existing between
the depressed condition of this dominion
ind the ever-increasing prosperity of our
teighboring Republic, has impelled us to
he conclusion that the difference has its rise
| tot in an imaginary boundary line, but in
he workings of the institutions of the two
: tountrics.
Third. It is therefore the deliberate
ipinion of this meeting that steps should be
akenatonee towards addressing the imperial
mthorities, through his Excellency _ the
Governor General, a respectful petition
praying to be informed whether the nearly
ananimous desire on the part of the in
habitants of this dominion for its in
corporation with the territory of the United
j States could not receive from the British
people the same gracious reception as was
accorded not many years ago to the like ie
quest from the inhabitants of the lonian
Islands for uuion with the kingdom of
Greece.
Messrs. O'Farrell, J. AVillan, and Mc-
Avoy spoke at length on the subject, and
the meeting, after naming a committee to
carry out the resolutions, broke up with
three cheer* for annexation, and three more
for M rs. ()'Donovan, to whose approaching
arrival O'Farrell called attention. The
crowd was very orderly in its conduct, and
rxcept from a few no marks of disap
probation wore evinced. The police did not
interfere.
