The IlepubHcans of Cambria county have always been very unfortunate. They have not for many years secured the. elec tion of a single candidate except one man for Assembly, which cost the Republicans and Detnociats $171, 000 exactly, as the b os of the Into banking bonne of Ll.jd & Co., in this place, fully attest. Demo crat are not, therefore, so cheap as repie fcetittd when it takes ?57,0A) a year to beat them for one otSce alone. But the decided success of the Democ racy by large and increasing majoiities is duo to something mora than the ad milted purity of our people, (jtorge T. .Swank, the immaculate editor of the Johnstown Tribuuc, has contiibuted uo little to our success in the past. Oui ft iends and patrons have ou scvcial occasions chidtd us for n;t adopting the advice of W ahl.ington to t.!en. iraddok on the eve of the fatal Hiaddock's Field disaster, to "light tho enemy in his own way." Our knowu aversion to jfrforntl warfare has hitheito kejt u lotf from replying to assaults on our best cit:zens ; and this has perhaps encourage J the idea that any falsehood agaiust our people could bo made with impunity. The last weekly issue of the Tribune, edited by the afore said Geo. T. Swank, has satisfied u, how ever, that our forbearance was misplaced. It publishes an niticle that Mr. James, tho comparatively model ate editor of tho Herald, would never have admitted into bis columns, in which are iterated, with an air of truth, the vilest falsehoods against a number of our best citizens. The article alluded to is false in every particular false in tho aggregate and in the detail. Eut lest any man of any party in Cambria county, reading only the Tribune, and not knowing Swank, fchould believe what he utters, we shall endeavor to show what kind of a c eiture George T. Swank is. Wh;l i the mnn lie slanders are all old citi zens of Cambria county, most of them born within its limits, bo is literally a carpet-baggor in our midst. Reared in tho purlieus of prostitution in the city of New York, by ttome inscrutablo dispensa tion of Divine Providence, lie wandered back to Cambria county and got possession of the Johnstown Tribune. True to his nature, true to his instincts, and true to tho misfortunes of an early misspent life, he hates every man and every woman with a bitter and unholy hate. He hntos the world, and the woild isovon with him, because the world hates him. lie is unhealthy and miseiablo morally and jhy irully. He cannot stand in the presence of any one for fivo minutes at a timo without an involuntary twitching of his lower ox trcmitics. In short, without anything to love worthy of love, be hat devoted big miserable life to the demon of hate ! Of course such a man, and a paper edited by such a aian, could not succeed without extraneous help from some source. Know ing this full well, Swank got himself ap pointed clcik of tho Distiict Couit ; but when an election for tho offico became necessary, not daring to go 1m fore tho Re publicans of his own ucighboil.ood, he was forced to retire and make room for a better man. Hut his venal paper had to be supported for all that, and nothing was left within his reach but tho Johns town jtt-llice. Tine, Mr. Gettys, tho then abloand competent jwist master, fctood in his way. llo was a man without blem ish and had left a leg on nno of the South ern battle-fields for the Union cause. Rut he must be removed or the Tribune must die. Bo Goo. T. Swank robbed him of his ' nor by acclamat ion. If Gov. Seymour ac place, and is now enabled by the taxes ; cepts, ns it is to bo hojied he will, New paid by the people at large to abuse nion j York will bo spared fiom Motgan-ic rule who are infinitely his siq-ciiois in every . for the next three years to come at least, sense of the word. So mote it bo. It is well enough to know, however, (hat r t -rr this creature is merely t!ic poor, miserable Jrnc.R Pearson of Dauphin county lias tool of one man in Johnstown and another t man in Ebensburg. They both despise ' him, but be answers Iht ir present purposes, '. and when they are done using him they w ill kick his dcca , -fnsr and offensive carcass I . . . . , I . out oi i lie way, as a lumg tuo iuuiumui iu tolerate. 1 to llis Ebensburg informer we have 'but little to say. We havo especially re- framed fn.m any remaik offensive to ; Thomas Davis, believing that between him j and John Ryan, a man who is more than 1 i his equal in cveiy respect, the Democrats j j But if Mr. Davis bi lies, or permits his pimps to belie, the people of Cambria J county, be will find it will only tend to . laieelv inereaso Mr. Rvairs majority. In stead, t licit-fore, of hifc-sing on his bounds he had better call him off fiually and for- ever. Geo. T, Swank has no tounty can- j didate but Davis, as cveiy one know, and j his slaudcis havo no other effect than to : greatly damage him. j We do not desire to pursue this unplens j ant subject any further. Geo. T. Swank j talks of whi-kcy drinking among Deriio J crats. If we were malicious wo- should J retort that in neaily if not all the "Hips of tho said Swank to Ebensburg he has been ' "heavy laden" with whu-key, and that :iot long since ho attempted to attend a Demo- cratic convention in Miis place to take notes, but was too drunk to pet to the Court ! House. This, however, would ba personal, j We have not and do not desiro to attack Republican candidates or Republican citi zens, but when private individuals are misrepresented and traduced by others, we shall take care to inform our renders who and w hat Ihe'iaduccrsare ; : nd if Geo. T. Swank or his candidate suffer by it, they should not forget that the discussion is of their own seeking. Thf. proposed pipe line from the oil re gions to tho seaboard, of which a pretty thorough understanding may be obtained by perusing an article published in our lo cal department this week, is being discussed just now by some of our contemporaries, several articles on tho subject having ap peared in various Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Oil City papers, in which the right of said Company to construct such a line and to enter upon private property for that purpose, as well as the financial condition of the Company itself, has been brought very prominently into question. It is claimed by the w riters of these articles that the projectors of this monster enterprise are mere private speculators, who proposo w ith boi row ed money alone to construct the line and put it in complete working order an allegation which seems to bo borne out by the fact that a mortgage has been put upon record in this county mortgaging the lino and entire property of the Company before they have a line or owu a doliai's worth of property in tho county. We do not oumelf express any opinion as to the charges made against tho parties interested iu thisentcr piise, but now that they are made, it will bo well enough for our friends to go slo-w iu the matter and not sign rights of way or grant special privileges to any coiporation uutil they fully understand their ow n rights as well a8 tho Company's lights in the premises. Far be it from us to say aught against an enterprise that may ically be woitliy of encouragement, but if I he state ments of those opposed to tho movement can Ihj relied on, I lie project w ill not only piove of no benefit to the public, but will iu reality work injury to the farms and roads over which it is designed to pass. Evcu the work of hauling and laying the pipe, it is alleged, will be given lo experts from the oil country, and scarcely a dollar will be expended among our o-n people for its construction. Once done it will employ but few laborers, vrhile its successful work ing will resul' in tho discharge of a large number of men now employed uikmi the various railroads throughout the country in tho transportation of this great article of commerce. Next week we will endeavor to get at the bottom facts in regaid to this pipe line movement, and in the meautimo it will be well enough for those who own the land through which it is proposed to pass to make sure that the enterprise w ill prove a blessing and not a curse to themselves and the public at largo before they confer the right of way or grant any Special privileges to tho Company in question. Wait, ay we sign nothing until fully convinced that it is all right. Ex Governor Morgan the present Re publican candidate for Governor of New York, did nothing to suppress the Canal jobs when he ocenpiod tho Gubernatorial chair on former occasions, and for this ser vice to tho ring, William D. Wood in, ono of the jobbers, presented bis name to tho Republican convention for their support.

FACTS AND FIGVUKS KO It WOUK15C TKOrLE TO CONSIDER. It is the custom for Oriental monaiehs on their accession to the sovereignty to dis tribute lavish gifts among their peoples. This year the Reimbiican officials esti mated that the amount of money needed to carry on the Government for toe year would be C0;?,0fl0,02. 4S. The Democratic House was inclined to allow for this purpose l;J9.7;i2,343 42. The Republican Senate demanded $158, 20O,5!lS Go. Relieving that the sorely burdened tax payers would prefer half a loaf to no bread, the Demociatic House yielded so f:ir as to let the appropriations be $14 .",71 0,074 05. For the year 187G they had been $177, f.G3,327 72. This array of figures has little signifi cance or interest for the average reader; therefore the World will present them iu another shaje. Taking the population of the United States to be 42,000,000 souls, we find that In 1876 ech person in Iho enuntry had to pay to support the Govern ment, not including interest or re demption of the lel,t 84 23 If Ilelknap, Chandler and Joteson had had their way, each person would have beensTtaxfd to carry on the iiorerniueut 1177 4 H3J If the Democrats had had llieir, way, tlie cost ier head would have been red need to 3 32 Belknap and ltoleson's pals in the Senate thereupon remarket! : That's let ting off the people too easy let's make each ono pay . 77 And the House was compelled, unless ir desired to be accused f blocking the wlieelsTif legislation, finally to agree to levy a tax per capita of 3 31 Now, if we take the average lalxuer, who has a family of five, comprising himself, his w ife and three children, it is apparent that if the Republican Administration had had its way he would have had to pay into the National Treasury 24 which, as Kuming his wages t.i be $1.50 a day, repre sents alout sixteen days of hard labor. Had the Democratic House been able to command, as it will next ear, the co opera tion of President Tiidtn and a Democratic Senate, his share of the national taxation would have Irxmi iflO.GUj, or eleven and a half days labor Even with all the drawbacks we have enumerated, the burden on tho laborer's family has been actually l educed this year from $21.15 to ,5Ti. or 3.S74. This amount may soeni small, but it rep resents the Tabor of twenty-four woikitig hours. To a million families the apparent ly tiitling snuvof $3.50 in cash means how much medicine for tins sick, what shoes and clothing for the children, how much meat and potatoes for all ! Ixt the laborer who, meanly elad and pily fed, digs in the sewers, or delves in the coal mines or works upon the railio.-td tracks; tho clerk who toi'.s for sixteen hours a day at a salary of ..'.) ;i week ; the artisan who find no en id. .- n.eiit for eight mouths in the year; the I'.irmer who puts his life into the stuhhori .il and does not wring theiefrom a living lot tho ieople ponder this. A DcmiiciMic Administration means more money iu the pock -.. : warmer clothes for the back ; better b-. i for the belly ; shoes for the baby ; :i (!i.Ss for the wifff ; less work for the hifband. Had the Republicans hud their w-ny, tho taxation per head in 1V'17 would have been increased over that for 187fi by the sum of cents, ot 14 A per cent. Therefore.! elect Hayes and this is what the head of the family of five will have to pay for each year of his administration. The Republican expenditures for 1876 was $21. IV ForlS77 it was placed at $'4.17. With Hayes and it Republican Congress it will, therefore, be : For 1H7S ?27.0 For IST'l ."1 t' Fr lsso ... 3i -'S4' Eur 1881 Total ...

Despite 11 laws and enact ments against bribery of voters, we say to every head of the family: Yoto U,c Dem ocracy into power and we will puy you di rectly in four years 70.55 . Ho'w many days' iroik ;s that? How many pairs of shoes? How many yards of calico and flannel? How many pounds of meat aud loaves of bread ? Rut about the figures we give to-day there can be no quest ion. They show what the Republicans wanted to do, what we would fain have done, what wo have done in the face of opposition. This is a "cam paicn supplement" that tells. Let Demo cratic paKM and peakcrs circulate it; give it to the laborer, the median ic and the farmer, and when next Novemler comes, Mr. Hayes, figure-hewd of blat her. bribery and bayonet-rule, will not have the odd fij) votes in the Electoral College.

The Ti tusvilie Courier of Saturday tells this: A very singular and uniccountable appear ance of a magnificent star, of a brilliancy exceeding any of the larger stars visible at the time iu the horizon, wii-s witnexsed at about nine o'clock last Wednesday. A lady acquaintance observed a very beilliani star, as it appeared to her, and in oidcr to view and compare its brilliancy wiih oilier stars that were visible at the time, shetook a general observation of the strength of light given out by the heavenly luminaries, and took also a distinct observation upon tho evening star which was then unite visi ble, but was as indistinct in its brilliancy relatively as the moon is to that of the sun. There was a mellow haziness overspread ing the atmospheie which hid in obscurity the smaller stars whilo this object i scintil lated with exubeiant fullness, und was so pleasing to her mind that she becima de termined to make a thorough investigation. On closer inspection she discovered that it was moveable and might be a comet, a shooting star of extraordinary bi:Ht;;ncy, or a meteor, or an i;;n- faitt-n, llumgh'this latter could not be, because it was too high in the atmospheie to have so near a lclaiion to the earth. All at once the scintillations became greater, and a sudden shooting upwaid took place, show ing in its flight st re-is i f light and dai bnes. Then he scintillations became greater and moi e riit incr. and ap patently moved toward her. This excited her mind as to whether she was to have a heavenly visit or not ; Aether it would be dangerous to remain in the position, ex postd as the was to the open window. Sat isfying herself and making all necessary preparations fr her safety, to close the window shutters, she waited in breathless anxiety its approach. Neaier and nearer it came, suddenly Lopping slightly and bearing at an angle toward the earth. She discovered it took the form and appearance of a bird, with wings extended, and Ihe scintillations be came more distinct. Suddenly ft stopped and retraced its movement in the direction from whence it appeared to have come. The brilliancy never waned from the fust to the last, until finally it died from bight.

The Allegheny Mail, a Republican news paper makes, the following candid state ment : "During a recent ttip through about thirty counties in Iowa we met tho leading Get mans of many townw, and being desirous of ascertaining ihe political stand ing of tho Germans in several localities, we made frequent inquiries, and obtained from the most reliable sources such representa tions and calculat ions as to convince us that tho great majority of them fully three fourths are iu favor of Tilden and Hend ricks.

TnE New Yoik Tribune, quoting from the report of tho United States Treasiuy made up from bokK kept by tho Routwel'l pKieess, comes to the conclusion that "Ro rmblican extravagance and misgovernment nave cost the people somewhat less than 40 c'Vper capita about $17, fx0, 000 yearly."

Saturday being the sdteond, and prob ably the last, of the twenty live cent ad mission days, the attendance at the Centen nial Exhibition was greater than on any previous day. the number of paid admis sions being 95.873. Tho total admissions, including those on the fieo list, was 104, 514. Cardinal Manning recently evinced his earnestness in the temtterance cause by presiding at an open-air meeting on Cleik-enw-ell Green, London, when his Eminence dwelt upon the homo blessings and com forts which the spread of temperance was bringing to tho people of tho metropolis and the country. At St. Clair, Pa., on Thursday even ing, during tho excitement caused by an alarm of fire, a son of Mr. Benjamin P;ice, aed 15, ran into a team coining iu the op posite direction to which ho was running. One shaft passed into his body near tho left lung and came out at his back. His injuries will probably be fatal. The United Presbyterian doesn't like secret societies, and thus expresses itself about them : "If all Protestants were true fco their con vie! ions of the evils of tho secret orders that are cursing our country, we would have less of them ; at least, less of thoir arrogance in assuming to mle iu affairs of Church as well as State." A twelve year old hoy jumped into a liver at Rosebnrg, Oregon, to rescue a younger brother. Ho was swimming to ward the shore with the little ono when bis mother, who bad in her excitement gono too near the tdge of the bank, slipped into tho stream. Ho instantly let go his hold and went to save the mother, and all three were drowned. The Nation says Tilden has escaped exposure during forty years of administta tion of trusts ; that he long concealed tho fact that ho flooded Michigan w ith $4,000. 000 bogii,, money; that it appears to bo settled he was drunk the night he w is nominated, and tho next thing to come out wtd probably be his having defiaudcd an : insurance company by arson. i A physician in the Isle of Wight uses a homing pigeon to assist him in hislalnus After visiting a village he wiitcs a list of tho prescriptions needed there, ties it to t he leg of a pigeon, and lets it go borne ! His assistant at home is thu able to get the prescription, put up the medicine, and send it to its destination, U)u , . cian proceeds to the next v illage. " !

Among the records rf the rebel Gov ernment captured at the fall of Richmond was a letter from the Po.h- to Jeff Davis, in leply to one f.iwaided to him by the Piesideut of the Confederate Slates. It has been asserted that this contained a re cognition of the Confederate Government, but such is not the fact. It isentiielv non committal on the k beiiion, and the" only point in it is an expression of bis desito that "the fital civil war shall speedily ch.se and that all the i-ioplo of America may at lenatli attain mutual peace and concord, and be united iu mutual charity." Governor Morgan, if elected, will V the only Governor of New- Yoik, with the exception of Win. L. Marry, who has served three terms since the adoption of the Constitution of 18J1. Gov. M.ircy's three terms were consecutive, beginning in 1333 aud ending in 1S:V.. Mr. Sewaid ran three times for Governor and was de feated once. Horatio Seymour ran five times and was beaten three times John T. Hoffman ran three times and was lieau-n once; ex-Gov. Dix twice, and was liealen onco. Governor Morgan is running tho thiid time and has never been beaten yet. Anothei ten ible charge has been resur rected by the Republicans. When the Demociata in the Indiana Legislature re signed to prevent tho adoption f the fifteenth amendment, a dispatch was ie ceivcd fioui Washington, of which tt.e fol lowing is the conelusi n: "The resigna tion i f the Democratic members of the Legislatuie in oider to five the iooi.!p a chance on this great qucsth n of 11 iveis 1 suffrage at the ballot box 1.1 t bemeies, is an act of self saci ificing jatiiotism de' serving the admiration and supH.tt ol the whole iH?ople. T. A. Hendricks W. E Niblack. William S. Holman, M.C. Kerr." Republican jv.lit icians of late have come to regard it as a giievows sin to e,iv.i the people a chance to decide an, thing at the ball .-.t bo. " George Adams, who ..o successful! v played the role of hero iu the hoe averted railroad disaster on the 'Hh htant. at Fairport, has been arrest ed in Btil.tl.i, and confesses be misplaced the sn itch which threw a train from the track t f the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Radioad 00 the 11th instant, when-by the engineer and fireman were, bad !y sea 'o'cl. and 1 be rngiun wrecked.
