CHAXGi: THE CONGRESS. .
The election of Congressmen for the next
term is scarcely less important lliaa the elec
tion of a President of the United States. Du
ring, the last two years it has been impressed
viridly upon the minds of all light-thinking
men, that an immenae power for the public
weal or wo has been ' assumed by Congress.
Since the death of President Lincoln, who
Was called the "government," Congress has
declared itself the'governmcnt,'- and has
treated the executive head of the nation aa
a mere supernumerary and an incumbrance.
It makes all the difference in the world with
theee loyal gentlemen whether the Chief Ex
ecutive is in the interests of Radicalism, or
whether he considers the validity of an oath,
and is only willing to administer the govern
ment according to the terms of the Consti
tution. It was in the latter character that
Andrew Johnson chose to act, and for that
reason he has been vilified, denounced and
thwarted at every turn. Congress has arro
gated to itself all the powers and preroga
tives of the government ; has been at once
the Legislative, Judicial ad the Executive
branches ; has made the law, expounded the
law, executed the law ; has, in a word, been
law-maker, judge and sheriff not to say a
rery great criminal besides.
Their two thirds mnjority in Congress has
allowed the Radicals to do these things.
Andrew Johnson, however much he may
have disappointed the real fiicnds of the
country in many, particulars, has shown
himself in hia contest with Congress to be
br true a man as ever filled the Presidential
chair. But he has been President under
very peculiar circume tances. No other Presi
dent labored under the disadvantage of being
confronted by a twotbirds majority. An
drew Jackson himself could have done
nothing more than Andrew Johnson has
'done he could only haYe Interposed his
vetoes between the mai violence of Congress
and a suffering people, and his' vetoes, like
Andrew Johnson's, would only have been
overridden, and himself put to scorn.
And so it can only be in the future, unless
the complexion of Congress is changed at
- the same time that a Democratic President
takes hold of the reins, of government.
Horatio Seymour is a good man as a stat es
man fmmeasnrably the supeiior of General
' Grant but to be President with Congress
as it U now composed can be productive of
...buti lilt'e 8 to country.
It is our duty, aa American citizens, to
remove this Congress this clog to the peace,
prosperity and happiness of our country j to
. choke off the leeches and vampires that are
. exhausting the lifo-blood of the nation ; to
not only elect a man to the Presidency who
" is fit to fill the chair that has been occupied
by Washington, Madison, Jackson and Bu
chanan, but at the Bame time to remove
every obstacle to the clear and full diseharge
of the duties of his office.. , We do not ask
. for a Cromwell to clear eur halls of Congress
at the point of the sword, to plungu the
r country anew into the hoirors of a civil war,
"And shut the gates of mercy on mankind."
', There is a more peaceable way out of tho
difficulty. It is in the hands of every Amer
ican citizen. It is the ballot. Let ns vote
in the spirit of intelligence and patriotism,
and the Radicals will be driven from Wash
ington. as tho thieves and money-changers
spoken of in. the good book wero driven from
tho temple. . , ...
' The candidate for Congress presented to
" the Democracy of this district, is a gentlo-
man every way worthy of the suffrages of
j the people. He is no stranger to them.
Col.' Linton has proved himself a patriot on
the Cold of battle and iq tho councils of our
State. His record is open to the inspection
of all. There is no entry there of treason to
his country, of bargain and sale to a corpo
ration, of privaUi speculation, of oppression
to the down-fallen. It is a book that may
be known and read of all men, and to its
pages Col. Linton can point with honest
pride and satisfaction. In public and. pri
vate life liia reputation id with. ut a blemish,
and not a wori can .be said in praisOfofhia,
opponent that may. not with rotfal- truth
and justico be spoken of Col. LlNTOJT hiru
slf j while much that might be urgejlin his
behalf forma no part of the persopaf or po
litical record upon which, is based MjvMob-
rell's claims for re-election.
Col. Liton is the equal of Mr. Morkell.
in all that pertains to private character,
while in ability for the position to which
they both aspire he is eminently his superior.
He U not a man of cramped intellect or con
tracted knowledge. He may possess but
few of the qualities requisite for the success
ful management of a large manufacturing
establishment, bnt his mind is sufficiently
comprehensive to take a' broader view of the
interests of his ccuntry and his constituents
than is embraced in the bearings of the tariff
upon the artiele of Tailroad iron. Ha is
above and beyond the seeking .of a place In
the councils of the nation merely to employ
his time in advocating the interests of a
mammoth corporation with which he might
be prominently and pecuniarily connected
No, he has a more enlarged view of tho
duties of the position to which we hope he
will be called, ami he possesses the judgment
and ability to perform those duties as be
comes a man who has the welfare of his fellow-men
at heart.
In short, Col. Liston is a man eminently
fit to represent the people of this district in
Cungrcss a man who can form an opinion
and erpress it without the aid of a second
party a man who could argue in defence of
any measure which might need defending,
and who wouid not be forced to flood the
country with speeches other persons hal
written and he himself had never delivered.
We sincerely trust that he will be triumph
antly elected, and we ask every Democratic
and Conservative citizen who peruses this
article, and who is a resident of this Con
gr3Monal district, to go to work zealously
and faithfully and do all he can to bring
about this most desirable result.. A' change
in Congress is imperatively demanded, and
the way to effect that change is to elect such
patriotic, deserving and honest men and un
flinching Democrats as Col. Listos to rep
resent us, and then we may dpend upon
equal and exact justice being meted out to
all sections and all classes of our people, and
may expect to see the various departments
of our government working in perfect har
mony with each other for the common good.
, . t Convincing' Address.
Grant, in a recent speech at St. Joseph,
Mo-, which was evidently prepared with
great care, and which is certainly the most
elaborate and satisfactory he has yet made,
thus mau clear his views and opinions in a
manner that will go down to after genera
tions as the great speech of the times : .. .
ANSCNCTATION OF 1113 POLICY-
I return my sincore thanks for this hearty
reception. ;

day.

A MAGNIFICENT PFRORA0I0N.
I thank you, but I cannot speak to you
this evening. .
After this, let us hear no more carping
about the ability of Hiram Simpson, alias
Ulysses Samuel, as a speaker.
The Difference.
The principal features of Grant's pclicy
are : -
Gold for the bondholders ; rags for the
laborers. - ' '
The South for the negro.
The disrranchisment of tho white race,
supremacy of the negrn, military govern
ments for the Southern States, and unques
tioned tyranny in order that "we may have
peace."
6EYMOUR' POLICY. -
The whole country for white men. ; -Oae
currency for all the bondholder
and the mechanic, the producer and con
sumer. ... . .:
Enfranchisement of the white race, plenty
of work for the negro, with the responsibili
ty of supporting himself; abolition of the
Freedrnen's Bureau, military governments,
and pro-consulates, freedom of speech, of
the press, and the elective franchiso, and
cheerful assent to the declared will of the
poople.
" Choose Ye lie t ween Them."
The Harrisburg Patriot has exhibited from
official documents the fact that Mr. Survey
or General Campbell has cost the people
more than thirty thousand dollars during his
term of three years than Mr. Barr did, and
that, iu hi-i best year, he paid less, by more
than seventy thousand dollars, into the
treasury. -. ; r , ', :
These facts are uncontradicted. People
of Pennsylvania make your choice between
Charles E. Boyle and General Wellington
H. Ent on the Democratic side, and 'Uar
tranft and Campbell on the Radical side.
On the c-ne side honesty, competency, and
integrity, on the other, Radicalism, what
ever that may be. ' ' . , f f
While the Radicals, at loss for argument,
are resorting to empty shows, bright orna
ments and other boyish playthings, to en
deavor to win the people, at the same time
they are using the 'people's money, to, pay 'j
for these displays. -.Their immense horde of
office holders are made to bleed , freely for
such displays, and these office-holders are
supported by heavy taxation of the people.

KNOW-NOTHINGISM RAMPANT!
A Radical Opinion of Irishmen
and caihollc. . -
On ordinary .occasions, says tbe Alton
-Democrat, the vagaries of the Chicago Post
would not merit even a passing notice. It
has a penchant for fquibs and a weakness
forrFUus? but rarely, if ever rises to the
dignity or an argument.
The article quoted below, possesses sig
nificance only as illustrates the genuine
radical animus toward the Irish and for
eign element in this country.,- ,The editor
of The Poet, be it known, is. Mr. CKarles
II. Hay, formerly principal editor of the
Chicago "Tribune rand recognized asone of
the chief leaders of the party in Illinois,
lie was a member of the late Chicago
convention and was potential in the coun
cils of the Illinois delegation thereat :
NIGGER, NIGGER, Kid I-
"Do you want your daughter to marry a
nigger?" was the question formerly asked
ofThe electors of Illinois by every Democra
tic candidate on the stump. -
vNigger equality at the polls is the sign
of nigger equality in the family," say all
the Democratic orators of the day.
'Allow the nigger to vote and you have
both political and. social equality every
where," cry all the : copperheads of the
north. ? : ; - , '
What a lie these assertion are one an all !
Political equality is one thing, social equal
ity is another thing. Political equality is of
the law. Social equality is of the woman.
The law says, come op. Madam says, stand
back ! ' t
- Teddy O'Flaherty votes. He has not been
in tl e country six months. But he has been
through Dan O'Hara's court. He is natural
ized. Terence O'Manus swore for him that
be had been five years in the United States :
that he was a jintleman of good noal char
acter, and Dan O Hara knew that he was a
Democrat. And bo he was naturalized, of
comse.
He has hair on his teeth. He has never
knew an hour in civilized society. He never
stepped on anything more solid than a dirt
floor in his life until he stood on the deck of
an emigrant ship. lie ia a born savage as
brutal a ruffian as uutamed Indian of the
North American tribes. Of coure he caiTt
read. He can't write. All books to him
are sealed. He only believes in the priest ;
and the priest's only little less a barbarian
than ho.. ,'"B Jasus I'm a Dimmecrat !" is
his shibboleth. Breaking heads for opinion's
sake in his practice. The born criminal and
the pauper of the civilized world, and withal
the innocent victim of the statecraft of Eng-
laud and of the 1 priestcraft . of Rome a
wronged, abused and pitiful spectacle of a
man capable of better things, pushed straight
to hell by that abomination against common
sense called the Catholic religion, and that
outrage upon political decency falsely known
as American; Democracy. , To compare him
with an intelligent freedman would bo an
insult to the latter.
Do American - women run after Teddy
OTUherfy? Are they in haste to marry
him 1 Oh, father of a beautiful daughter
are you afraid that she will break away from
your love ana Kinuness ana djuko -euujr
coraianion? Yet, how much less danger of
her marrying a nigger J xne DiacK man, ii
he has been at all favored by the chances
that slavery afforded, is the superior of Ted
dy in the things which women value, but
his color is against ram and so L-unee ana
and Paddy are equal the first having the
most civilization; the latter, being the
whitest.
Now marriage is not a thing of the law,
save and except as the law directs how it
bhall be celebrated. If a decent woman
wants to marry Teddy O'Flaherty, the law
takes no cognizance of her low desire. If
she wants to marry a nigger, the law is
equally dumb. When, then, you can point
out to us that the race of Americans is in
danger of destruction by the admixture of
the O'Flaherty blood, we shall be ready to
believe that it is in danger of deterioration
by tle admixture of nigger blood. Putting
color aside what is there to choose between
Teddy and Cuffee 1 . -, . . . - . -;
The country , has survived the Irish emi
gration the worst which any other country
was ever afflicted. The Irish fill our prisons,
our poor houses, our reform schools, our
hospitals, our eleemosynary and reformatory
institutions of all sorts Scratch a convict
or a pauper, and the chances are that you
tickle the skin of an Irish Catholic at ihe
same time, an Irish Catholic made a crimi
nal or a pauper by the priest and politician
who have deceived him and kept him in
ignorance, in a word, a savage, as he was
born.- He has not, thus far, deteriorated the
American blood. Why then fear that with
these obtacles of race and color in the way,
the nigger will accomplish that in which the
Irish have failed.
Bah ! , This appeal to the fear of the pop
ulace that we must have a care lest this
country, like Mexico," be ruined by a
mixed race is only the gabble of rascals who
"want to perpetrate injustice under covet of
a popular prejudice. Mexico was not so
ruined either. The priests, bishops, monks,
nuns, operating upon the Catholic laity did
the job for that unhappy republic' Just as
Catholicism which is despotism, goes out,
Mexico rises.
The danger of miscegenation, white with
black, is, then as remote as that Teddy O'
Flaherty will succeed in making his way by
marriage into tho American families by
whom he Is abhorred. We have been ac
quainted with Teddy a long time. He has
dug numberless canals, made many railroads,
fought many a fight, voted the Dimmecratic
ticket, been in many a jail and "pauper
house, and he has all the while been priest
ridden. The fat, sleek, rosy-gilled liars nd
scoundrels (consciously such) who have been
about h:m, have kept him in ignorance, rob
bed him of his pence, and given him after
many sprinklings of his holy water, what
they call' passports' to heaven; but he is
Teddy O'Flaherty yet ; and if he wore dis
posed to marry, there's Budget only. Mis
cegenation is not for him." J -- :;
There is not a Democrat who would not
boil over with rage if we should tell him
that Cuffee could accomplish that in which
Teddy failed. Let . us dismiss, then,' this
question of the degeneration of the blood as
one that is unworthy of our notice, -as one
of those side-issues that the copperheads
and the man-seller have raised to obscure
the merits of the issne before the people.
When, after both Teddy and Cuffee are
civilized, they want to marry white -women
and the white women an willing, we should
like to see the law that would prevent them.
But the truth is that, .with civilization will
come that dislike to mixture of Wood which
white and black alike maintain. They are
barbarians like the old nigger drivers of the
South or the. Democracy' of Five Points,
who commingle the two streams, white and
black. Chicago Post, Sept. 9.
