VICTORY ! !
HEKTUCXY GOKE DEMOCRATIC.
SiYTY TH0U3AND MAJORITY!
At the State election hold in Kentucky
on Monday 1ist, Stevenson, the Demo-
crtic candidate for Governor, and the
rest of the Democratic Sfa'o ticket, was
(lected by a majority which if set down
at L0,000 an immense Democtatic gain
since the last election. Louisville alone
cave Stevenson 7,000 majority, and in
nil other sections of tho State the increase
in tha Democratic vote is unprecedented.
Gov. Sejuionr uud tlia War.
As often 3 a Radical editor in Penn
sylvania asserts that Gov. Seymour was
opposed to the war, he is guilty of utter
ing a wilful and deliberate falsehood, and
U Inmcs iL Such a charge, if marie in !
another may suit the base purposes
of Radicalism, bat Acre in Pcnruyh-ania '
the toncne of the man who whispers it
ought to blister, and the face of tho man
who gives it currency through a newspaper
ought to crimson with fchania. What
are the fcts ! In June, 1863, the rebel
army, by a flank movement, crossed the
Upper Potomac, at or near Williamsport,
and advanced on Pennsylvania. The i
m-iin r. onion of the forces marched along
the Southern border of the State in tho
cliiecticn of Gettysburg, while nbout twelve
thousand of their number advanced to
Chrunbersburg, und then down the Cum-hwrlni-d
valley towards Ilarrisburg. As
a matter of course the wildest terror and
and alarm pervaded that section of the
State. Gov. Curtin issued a proclama
tion setting forth the imminent danger
thrratrniiig the State, and calling on her
able-bodied citizens to come to her rescue.
At that terrible crisis in our affaire there
was no militarv' f;rce north of the Poto
mac to meet and check the advance of the
rebel rmy. The men of Pennsylvania
were slow in responding to the urgent ap
peal of her Governor. Gov. Curtin called
upon Slanton, the Secretary of War, for
tissistance, but Stanton replied that he
could not render him any aid. In this
dilemma Stanton acd Curtin telegraphed
to Horatio Seymour, then Governor of
New York, urging him to forward at once
to Ilarricburg all the troops that he posti
My could. What did Gov. Seymour do?
Did he falter or hesitate? Not a bit of it.
In less than forty-eiht hours after receiv
ing Stanton's despatch he commenced for
warding his tiocps into this State and to
Baltimore, and continued doing so ns long
as he had a man to sand. How many
soldiers Gov. Seymour furnished we can
not precisely say, but our recollection is
that the number was uhout fifteen thous ind.
So great was the terror and alarm of Gov.
Curtin during those memorable days in
June, 18G3, that he kept a locomotive on
the track at the Harrisburg depot, with
the steam kept constantly up, to transport
him from the city a3 soon as the rebels
made their appearance on the opposite
bank of the Susquehanna. Gov. Curtin
himself, ia a speech which he made in
Philadelphia just before the battle of Get
tysburg, or just after it, acknowledged the
timely assistance be had received from
Gov. Seymour, and spoke of him in terms
f the warmest commendation. President
Lincoln and Mr. Stanton both expressed
to him their warm thanks for Ids prompt
ness and onergy in resnosding to the de
mand which had been made upon him.
All these facts were well known at the
time, and the citizens of Harrisburg and
the Cumberland Valley, of all parties,
were loud in their praises of Horatio Sey
mour. But ho is now a candidate for the
Presidency, and crealures who were base
cowards in 18C3 and are base slanderers
now denounce him as a foe to hiB coun
try and an enemy of the war. Could po
laical mendacity ainfc to a lower depth !
If, during the present political campaign.
Andrew G. Curtin should take the "tump
in favor of tLe Radicals, he will have a
full and fair opportunity of exposing. tbi6
foul elander against Gov. fieymour. A
decent sclf-i effect, to say nothing of grat
itude, requires this at hie hands. Gov.
Seymour came manfully to Lis rescue and
that of his State in the dark days of 1SC3.
Will Gov. Curtin in 18C3 permit Radical
editors and Radical eturnp speakers to
utter this vile slander against his friend,
Horatio Seymour, without retting upon it
the 6eal of his unqualified reprobation?
We will see.

The misdeeds of the Radical Rimp
Congress are 6o glaring that Radical
editors, like him of the Tribune, would
fain ealve them over. Aware that the
Negro Bureau contributed more than any
thing else to the present odious and op
pressive taxation, they would fain have
the people believe that the Rump, and
Mr. Morrell of the Rump, voted to dis
continue the liureau afier the 1st of Jan
uary next. This is humbug, and the
Tribune man known it.
The Freedman's Bureau at first was to
ho only temporary, and to expire at the
end of a year ; then it was continued from
time to time, and now Mr. Morrell and
his eonfrerts in Coiigrcs", instead of repeal
ing it and removing this burden from the
shoulders of the people, pass an act to end
it after the turt Congress meets.
No man so Mind as not to see the
cheat in this ! If this oppression is wrong
;t ehwuld be ended NOW. If it is right
why repeal it by an act not to take effect
until 77c.r the cLct'on, and until another
RuniD meets to continue itl The reason
is plain
The Rump Congress knows it
will not bear the test or public scrutiny.
ami hence it eeoka to gull the honest pco- j
p!e of the country bv the passage of a i
1 j . r s
delusive law, to put them off their guard j
till after the election ! falstjier of the truth.
The Tribune comolains that we denounce He then quotes Mr. Crounsc'a opinion
this act of the Romp without publishing j of Iiutler as s :

it. Whenever, like the Inlunr. we be- . . . . Hlirnm(n. tn anVct

publishing laws about as interesting to
them as those of the moon, we shall give
this act in full, as well as sundry acts for
territories more ihin a thousand miles
distant, and for the publishing of which
the Tribune is paid by the taxes of the
peop'e Until then we shall print a paper
for the people and not for Congress.
As regards Hon. Daniel J. Morrell, our
remark was merely incidental, and called
out by the document he was kind enough
to send us. We differed from him and I
expressed that difference. We blame hirn
in regard to the Negro bureau no more
than other members of the Rump, unless
t obtained Democratic votes on the strength
of his avowed opposition to negro equality.
Consecration of a Catuoiic Bishop.
Rev. Father T. Mullen, who has for
many years past filled the position of Rec
tor of St. Peter's Roman Catholic Church
in Allegheny City, wa3 yesterday conse
crated Bishop of the Diocese of Erie. The
servioes, which were extremely solemn
and impressive, were conducted in St.

Bishop Domenec officiated, and was as

had been provided. Rev. P. M. Ward
acted as Master of Ceremonies A ser
mon was preached by the Rev. Father
Wall, after which the consecration exer
cises commenced, which were not conclu
ded until two o'clock in the afternoon.
The Cathedral was filled with an attentive i
audience daring the entire time consumed
by the services. Bishop Mullen, during
his residence iti this vieinit-, gained the
respect of the entire community, and his
departure from amongst us will be a
source of general regret. lie enters upon
his new and responsible position with the

An Immense Banner. The Seymour
and Blair campaign banner for the Metro
politan Democratic Club of New York is
the largest ever made in this country. If
is fifty feet long and thirty feet wide, and
when raised to its place in front of the
rooms of the club on Union Square, will
fill up Fourteenth street from curb to curb.
The poi trails of Seymour and Blair are
made from actual photographs, and al
though six times as large as life, are very
correct. Across the top of the banner is
painted, in large colored letters two feet
and a half high, the name of the club.
The portraits arc- at the very centre.
Various gigantic symbolic devices, repre
senting commerce, agriculture, the Union,
&c, till up the canvass, and the city coat-of-arms
is surmounted by a representation
of the American eagle. The background
is made up of handsome national flags.
The name of the candidates at the bottom
(are painted in glaring letters four feet

We publish, says the Lancaster Intctti
genaT, the following choice extracts from
Republican speeches, newspapers and let
ters, showing the opinion which the mem
bers of the party of great moral ideas have
of each other. We have never esteemed
Bethel-Fisher-Butler very highly, but the
following extracts from Senator Hender
son's speech, delivered on last Saturday,
would hardly tend to elevate our opinion
of that great General. Speaking of the
report of the SmePing Committee, made
by Butler alone, Henderson eays:
He insinuates that this note, taken in con
nection with the testimony, proves some
thing injurious to nie. Why does ho not
publish the testimony f Cooper, Craig and
Lacy all testified before the committee. I
charge that he suppressed their testimony
explanatory of the note, and published the
note, not in connection with the. testimony,
but without the testimony. This, of course,
was done with the sing'e purpose of injuring
1113' character. This fact contains within
itsefboth rjx-cies (flying known to the law
the suppression of truth and the suggestion of
falsehood. I cannot conceive what good pur
pose this conduct can accomplish. If it
were a larceny of my property I could attri
bute it to a well known infrmity of its author
cud suffer the ceil of charity to be drawn over
it, but it Manifests a drgree of obliquity and
devilish malice indicating total dejtrarity.
The implication here is not only against my
self, but equally strong against Messrs.
Evarts, Lacy, Co. -per. Craig and the Presi
dent, with no one of whom, up to the date
of tiiis note, had I ever one word of conver
sation upon the subject of impeachment.
Mr. Henderson here read letters from Messrs.
Evarts, Craig and Lacy, denying the allega
tions and explaining the circumstances al
luded to in the report. On page sixteen of j
the repoit a part of the testimony of Mr. !
Lacy ia introduced for another purpose, ami j
it will be seen by his testimony that Mr. j
Ciaij, haviug heard that I was going to re i
sign, called on nie on the 13th of May to j
advise me agiicst it. I qnore from the que- j
tiuns and answers of Mr. Lcy :

Then f. Hows the insinuation, "So the gold
room had the benefit of Senator Henderson's
knowledge." At another place we are told
that Lockwood" is Mr. L. L. Croucse, the
intelligent and gentlemanly Washington
correspondent of the New York Times.
I now send to the desk the letter of Mr.
Crounse, with whom I had not the pleasure
of a personal acquaintance until since the
publication of this report :
Hon. John B TIienskiisos :
Dear Sir Your note of the 20th inst ia re
ceived. In reply I have to say that the des
patch in question was uot founded upon auv
conversation had w'nh you, and further, that I
never had any communication with you directly
or indirec'.Iy on the subject of impeachment.
The inlormation on which I based this and other
despatches, public and private, came to mt in
such a positive manner from members of the
Missouri delegation that I felt warranted in putt-re
it in such brief and positive terms; but the
assumption of 15 u ler that Henderson told I
Orounse what is contained in this despitca, or
am thing else, is wholly unwarranted eithet by
the despatch itself or any other evidence in or
out ot Butler's po-isess'uii , and, I may add, is
simply another iiistanc- of those skilful perver
s.ons of the truth lor which that gentleman h:ts
achieved a reputation which none can desire
or hope to approa .-h.

servant, L. L. CkOUNSK.

Enough of Butler. We next publish the
views of the State Guard with reference to
the United States Senate. It will be re
membered that the Stale Guard is a 'Hrooly
loil" sheet published at Ilarrisburg. It
wiH also be remembered that the Senate is
composed of ten carpet-bagger Radicals,
forty-four Northern Radicals, and twelve
Democrats. The twelve Democrats can
hardly be responsible for the following re
markable condition of the Senate.
It is the unanimous testimony of news
paper correspondents, corroborated by ob
servers who go to Washington to study the
machinery of our Government and gain a
proper knowledge of the system of national
legislation, that of the two bodies composing
Congress the Senate is the most corrupt,
most tractable to undue and criminal influ
ences, easiest approached by weD in quest of
jobbing Tj'sition,
o
But let us pauBo and inquire what ani
mates the struggle iu the United States
Seriate to day ? We do not now refer to
parties. We are not writing as politicians,
Lut as men looking at facts and regarding
only the welfare of the coimtry while utter
ing the truth in its behalf. Hence we apply
the humiliating utterance that all parties
are corrupt in the United States Senate, and
that of the two tuxlies of Congress, the Uni
ted States Senate is the most corrupt, sche
ming and truckling to the loMn-. From
Washington we have the information th.it
ninety-nine ont of every hundred "jLs"
pushed through Congress were onginptcl ir
the Senate ; tacked on to appropriation bills,
and concealed in public legislation of all
kinds. The whisky ring had its ablest ad
vocates and most ardent defenders iu the
Senate. There is no concealment made of
the fact in Washington, that United States
Senators engaged in speculations of all kinds
by which the national treasury suffered.
Truly these are humiliating declarations, and
yet when we remember how Senators are
elected, we need not be surprised at the logic
al result of frauds which follow.
Some will declare that the assertion is
sweeping, and that we should indi vidualiz?.
Let such as those take the impeachment trial
for their guide. We give cur impressions
derived from reading the reports of parties
who are on the ground at Washington, most
of whom agree that the United States Sen
ate, as a body, is as corrupt to-day as was
the Senate of Rome when its members made
opt-n prostitution of their official rower and
sold their votes, as they did their slaves, in
the public maiket place. The people have
themselves to Maine fir this condition cf
public affairs. We all know that honorable,
pure, patriotic and Christian men are de
barred from reaching the Senate, for the
simple reason that honorable, pure, patriotic
and Christian men will not interest them
selves in the initial proceedings for the elec
tion of United States Senator, leaving those
grave duties to the discharge of the corrupt,
the incompetent ind debased. Need we
wonder, then, that fraud is rampant in the
Senate Chamber? Gd save the Republic
from the increase of this fraud !

Destkuctive Coski.acikaticn in Oh.
City. One of the must devastating thes
ever known in the oil regions occurred on
Friday morning last, destroying over two
thirds of that portion of Oil City lying on
the west side of the creek. The fire ori
ginated about seven o'clock in the engine i
yard of Parker, Thompson & Co., near
the Jones House. The flames com muni- I
cated to some tank cars standing on the !
railroad track, and from them to the !
buildings, spreading with fearful rapidity, j
consuming everything from the Pus: ollice j
to the National Hotel, and from the hill to !
the river's edge, rendering homeless over ;
two hundred families. 1'he amount of
damage cannot be correctly estimated.
Among those who will feel the loc3 heav
iest arc Pool Bros., Lock hart & Frew,
and J. A. Christy. The engine yard of
Clark & Goodman, containing eight or
ten new and second-hand engines, was
destroyed ; also, the Jones House, both
telegraph offices, and a great number oi"
other buildings. The timely arrival of the
fire department of Franklin, with their
6tearaers, contributed large!' 10 saving the
lower portion of the city. It is impossil.de
to tell how much oil was destroyed. A
portion of the A. and G. W. railroad
track wrs destroyed, but workmen arc
already engaged in repairing the damage.
A large amount of goods removed cow.
burnitig buildings were afterwards des
trojed, the fire having spread so rapid!'
their removal was impossible. A rain
commenced falling soon alter the fire was
gotten under control, further d:imn"irtr the
goods. There were but three tanks in the
lire. One of them was full, and the rest
were partly filled ; the opinion is thit not
much oil was burned. 1 he tanks are still
standing, and it is supposed they are all
i iii lit. They cannot be cotten at on uc-
count of the burning timber.
A Qt;F.$TION WkI.T. PltO t'OL'SP f I )
The R-ingor (Maine) Democrat, iu giving
an account of n recent Republican meeting
in that city, addressed by the notorious
Bingham, contains the following .
Mrs. Surraft's Ghost Stalks ujon the S'age.
While Bingham was irating about mctmg
out even atid exact justice to all persons.
1 1 ick an I wi i e, the audience was startled
bv a shn I voice in the pallery asking him
what kind of justice he meted out to poor Mts.
Surrait The effect was electric, and com
pletely neutralized al! of Binghata'a philan
thropic niouthings. It knocked hitu com
pletely ff his pins, and involved him in the
.-hcking i il mtna of having to explain a
tiansaction which, for atrocious rillany and
cold-blooded bruta'ity, rever had its like on
the continent. Bingham's explanation or
rejoinder left on the mind of every one pres
ent the undoubted conviction that Mrs.,Sur
ratt was an inuocent woman, and that by
her extcution an innocent life w?s sacrificed
to the bloody hate acd vengeance of the
speaker before them. He said he didn't do
it. "Go ask the traitor iii the White House
about it !" "Go ask General Ilancojk ab mt
it!" Thou can'st not 6ay I did it. "I I
I recommended her to mercy," Jbc, all of
which was a base and atrocious falsehood,
and known to be false by all present. Bing
ham did not recover himself during the whole
evening, but heat the air with wild gestures,
utteriDg incoherent platitudes and meaniug
less phrases for a full hour before he could
find a period or a place to stop at.

. .O' viile Grant, a respectable merchant
of Chicago, and brother of Gen. Grant,
recently gave a check of 1,000 to a Dem
ocratic Club of that city. In consequence
of t'ie habits of his brother, the now Gen
era!, he Las not, ior a long time, been on
very familiar terms with bim, and will
not vote for bim, deeming htm utterly
unlit for tho office to which the negro
party h ive nominated him.
. .The Muscatine, Iowa, Courier says:
"A day or two ago, a raftsman by the
name of Gore, was struck by lightning,
near New Boston, and instantly killed.
He had remarked several times on the
trip that he would not live through it.
Daiingthe storm be said he 'didn't care
a d n for any lightning God ever made.
Immediately the bolt struck him on the
head, and he was a dead man."
. .A Rr.J. in Springfield, Massachusetts,
in order to compel a colored Methodist
Church to sell its premise, has built a
fence around tha Church as high as the
caves, only eighteen inches distant on one
side, and about a yard on the other. To
render it still more offensive, the fence is
painted black on the side ext the cbvircb.
The church is, of course, rendered dark
in the midst of ths day, and the beat on
hot Sabbaths is absolutely stifling. The
reason assigned is that bis colored breth
ren are noisy.
. .There is said to be a movement on
foot in Washington, to secure the South
ern electoral vote for Grant, beyond a
peradvanture. It is a carpet-bag move
ment, and the purpose of it is to get the
Southe: n monarel governments to appoint
Presidential Electors, instead of allowing
them to be voted for by the people. ltkis
mtra'.ly certain that four of the "recon
structed" States will elect the Seymour
and Blair ticket, if (hey arc allowed to
vote, and to prevent this it is proposed to
lot the Legislatures do the voting, and
j make the people stay at homg. jjc us
Lave peace,
..Radical rioters attacked a Democra
tic meeting in Sahne county, Missouri,
Saturday week, and a bbudy fight was
the consequence. Three of tho attacking
party were killed outright and seven
others were wounded. On tlw Demo
ciatic ride there were five or six persons
seriously hurt, but none killed. The
battle ragod furiously for a long time, but
tho Radical murderers weie finally driven
off. Let as have peace.
. .The Rads hare a gMd time trying
to account for Grant's order in relation to
the Jews. Some Fay he was drunk ;
others that his secretary wrote the order ;
others that it only meant the bad Jews.
But the parties interested ara not satisfied
with any of the attempts to escape. The
whole thing whs too sweeping and unmis
takable to get away from, and only a few
of that class, who wish to make profit out
Republican party, will vote for Grant.
There is too much soii-recpect among
the rest.
. .The late flood at Baltimore was the
most disastrous that ever occurred there.
Three million dollars will hardly cover
the loe of property. The number of per
sons drowned in and near the city is esti
mated at from thirty-five to forty, and t
many who escaped drowning were so in
jured by exposure and collision with float
ing debris that their entire recovery is
hardly probable. Subscriptions for the
relief of the sulFcrcrs are already on f.Kit,
and we trust that all who can afford to
contribute will do so promptly and gener
ously. . .The following State elections are yet
