THE QI•SATIOA OT THE DAY
The Radical leaders may wake up
ere long to the conviction that the
stale epithets with which they seek to
drown Democratic arguments do not
keep . the people from noticing the
startling fact that in three years of
peace the Radical party has wrung
fifteen hundred millions of money in
taxes from the pockets of the people,
cud Las borrowed eight hundred. mil
lions more. That party inay,be "loll"
till it Is sick from exceee of "lolity';''
but that Is no return for the money.
"What ha s ve you done with our,mon
ey?" That is the people's question.
Why were the expenses of the army,
and the Navy for the year 1867, $Af5,l:
4,,585, or more money than was re-
flared to carry on the Afellean war?
Why did it cowl, in eiact figures, $44,-
413,151 more to support the army and
navy in the year of peace 1867 than it
did in thp year of peace 1806? Such
questions cannot be - answered by call
ing Democrats or • their candidates
"apperheads" or "traitors ;" they.are
questions of figures, not filth. Throw
ing the dust of dead %suet into the
eyes of the people falls to blind them
to- the fact that thirteen millions
more were added to the public debt In
the Mouths of June and Jul* "What
has Raslleatism done with the people's
money?" Ring this question to Rad
ical ears from now till November. It
means something. The campaign is
a question of dollars, not "vipers;"
of hard money, not hard wards. The
attack on ISA Shinier has passed into
the history of the gear 1801; the peo
ple 'iviuit .to know about the Radical
attacks on the public treasury and the
people's pockets to-day. "What lies
_Radicalism done with the people's
money ?" That is the question; that
is the issue; and next November the
people will deckle whether they can
afford four years more of Radical col , '
ruption and extravagance.
THE HEA TINT TAXED NATION IN
TUE wbzum. •
The New York Iferidd, though still
hankering after Orant, admits that
be has no chance of being siccted, and
charges that life defeat will.be owing
to the - unparalleled extravagance and
corruption of the leaders of the Repub
lican party. It. claims that' we are
more heavily taxed than tiny nation
in the world, AO proves its assertion
as follows:
- If the temper ,of a people is to be
judged by their patient endurance of
enormous taxation, the people of the
United States are the best tempered in
the world, IC' they certainly are taxed
more heavily than any other people
and make less noise about it. We
have estimaW that taxation by the
Asieral government alone, indepen
dent of State, county and municipal
taxes, amounts to fully fourteen dollars
ei bead—man, woman and child-for
the whole population. Take the case
of a laboring man with a family of
live or six children, and it will be seen
that he pays about a hundred dash's
a year, which Ott an,averageovould be
about a seventh or eighth of his earn
ings. Yet, the whole working popu
ration pay in one way or another this
enormous and proportionate amount
of their hard earned money. Nearly
one day's labor out of the week the
year round goes to the- support of the
federal Government. The daml taxes
imposed by the States, counties and
municipalities amount probably to
nearly as much, for in the end, direct
ly or indirectly, all taxation comes out
of labor. Why, in the city of New
York we ate taxed over twenty-three
millions a year—as much as was raised
and expended by the United Stated
government thirty years ago. But It
Is the federal government we speak of
partleulary how.
The income of the general government
last year, reconing from June 30, 1567,
to June 31), 15t*, teas over four hundred
and sixty Millions. This, too, in time
-of peace and three years after the war
was closed. If We lake the British you.

the world, and which has it mite!! larger

nue and taxes e.iceed those of great Bri
tain. The total revenue of England
front all sources rarely reaches eighty
millions sterling, or four hundred toil
lions of dollars. This is sixty millions
less than ours, notwithstanding the
debt, is about double the amount of the
Interest-bearing debt of the United
States; and the English have besides
to support a costly royal establishment,
and expensive army and navy and the
vast machinery of government over
Monies and territories covering a fifth
of the habitable globe, We might
make a comparOon with the other
great nations and empires of the world
and show a still greater difference In
the cost of government between, them
and this country ; but'England is the
most costly and more to the potnt.
Yes, our republican government taxes
the people slily millions a year more in
time of peace than Mi r is monarchical and
expensive government of Great Britain
does the British.
Congress made a pretence of taking
off some of these taxes during thelast
session. It was estimated they would
be reduced a hundred millions or so;
but us fart the reduction was made to
favor a feu , manufacturers and to in
crease still more the it profits and wealth.
The people wlllsearoely feet the change,
Vat all. Their Gordon& will remarri as
hemp tut ever or nearly so. Ohsfling
the weight of taxation from a feu , rath
er increases it upon the ninny. The
trouble lies in the enormous expendi
tures of the government and in the ex
travagant appropriations of C'ongrets.
These are fast eating up the surplus
money Mr. McCulloch has in the
Treasury, and nt the end of the fiscal
year we may look for a deficiency.
Nothing can be done to relieve the
country of the overwhelming taxation
that hears upon it till we return to
something like the economy of former
years. There is no Aopr of dim till a
rsss.r, a more honest and economical
' thrum In+ shall , be tkalcd, and the ad
ministration of the national finances be
placed in abler hands. To this the
people should turn their attention and
see that in the coining elections
these old, corrupt and incapable Con
gressmen be left at hoine and a better
and more competent set of men be re
turued in their places.

—FLORATIO SLYMOUR.
KNOW NoTimutsm, however much
the mongrels attempt to hide it, will
crop out. The New York Tribune,
which is certainly high authority In
the case, says the only objection raised
against General Roseerans when the
Senate was' considering his nomina
tion as Minister to Mexico, "was that
of his being a Roman Cathoric." His
nomination as Minister to Spain bad
previonOy been rejected, no doubt on
the same ground. This Is in keeping
with the acts of a party with a "no
policy" candidate for the- Presidency,
and a 'Know Nothing candidate for
the Vice Presidency.
Ix one' of Chief-Justice Chase's let
ters he' says: "Pour years more of the
rule of sued-men as are now domi

THE GETTYSBURG COMPILER, FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST 21, 1868.,
I=
John Cessna, who went, over to the
opposition lieause he could no longer
get office from the Democrats, will be
the Radical candidate for Congress In
this district, Bedford, Franklin and
Adams having instructed for film.
But it gems that he was not able to
secure his nomination without some
charaeteristieally dirty work, the re
cull of which has been to cause con
siderable ill-feeling among the friends
of Col. Wiestling, of Franklin county.
The Chambersburg Spirit thus alludes
to Cessna's doings there:
On'the night before the Convention
assembled, Jnbit Cessna, with his
characteristic Modesty, appeared upon
the ground, brought here by invita
tion, to assist in slaughtering Colonel
Wiestling in his own county, His
friends had been active and had suc
ceeded in having the Convention "set
up." And on the ballot being taken,
Cessna was declared to be the choice
of this county for Congress.
Then came the richest part of the-
Whole performance. Mr. Adams, one
of the avowed friends of Cessna, in
troduced a resolution which was in
tended as a healing salve for Colonel
Wiestling. It eulogized him in glow
ing language, complimented hint up
on his services in the field, commend
ed his fidelity to Lis party and gave
him credit for commanding talents.
But Col. W lest] i rig wtr, not in a humor
to be "soft-soldered." With the in
stinct of a gentleman he spurned the
proffered compliment, knowing well
the hollowness of the- fr endship
which prompted it. Eloquently,
earnestly, and with masterly skill, he
dissected the resolution and exiblted
Its total inconsi , teney with the former
action of the Com ention. The CeS's
, na delegates, olio evidently felt that
they had been guilty of a mean trick,
quailed under the manly words that
fell from his lips. Another effort was
made to press the resolution, but, with
an earnestness And significance that
could not be mistaken, the Colonel ut
tered :mother vigorous protest, and it
was withdrawn.
750,000 NEGROES
The Radicals have introduced a new
element Into American politics, in the
form of 750,000 negroes. In shaping
the destiny of the country, these ne
great are to neutralize the votes of three
quarters of a million of Intelligent
white men. In the game of national
politics, the military satraps, bureau
agents and itinerant demagogues who
manipulate this negro vote, will play
out their unconscious black emoilere
against an equal number of Angle
Saxon freemen. These negroes wilt
wield- (Including Tennessee) twenty
two votes in the Senate and fifty-eight
votes' in the House of Representatives
of the United States. The Senators
from the Negro States will outnumber
the Senktors repre4eittjng two-thirds of
the white popluution of the Union. The
Representative , ' from the Negro States
will outnumber all the Represtata.
Ryer! of the great Commonwealths of
New York and Pennsylvania.
• These negroes will notonly exert the
political influence accorded to their
own numbers; but will also wield the
Influence bekOmlt.g to the entire white
population of the South. The Radi
cal system of white disfranchisement
gives the negroes an absolute majority
In most, and a praftictil majority In
all, of the Southern States. The ne
gro majorities will therefore speak not
only for theroseleves, but for the
whole population of the South.
This system of Negro Suffrage and
White Disfranchisement is not levelled
at the Southern whites alone. It is
mainly intended to bind and muzzle
the white freemen of the North. It is
designed to secure the election of Presi
dents by the Negro Electoral votes.
It is Meant to procure majorities in
Congress by Negro Congressional
votes. It is Intended to give the Run
cols an apparent and artificial strength
by counting nejroes in the popular
vote of the country. In fine, it is
specially contrived to perpetuate the
rule of the Radical ,faction, through
the agency of uegro votes, against the
will of the majority of the whites of
the nation. Freemen of Pennsylva•
.nia, will yuu kiss the rod and wear
the yoke_prepared for you?—Laneas

Littlestown was laid on Saturday last,
on which occasion appropriate andln
teresting religions exercises were had.
The -pastor, Rev. J. M. Clemens, as
sisted by Rev. W. E. Krebs, performed
the ceremony at the stone, placing
therein a copy of Proceedings of Syn
od, Holy Bible, Heidelberg Catechism,
Psalms and Hymns, Reformed Church
Messenger, and some silver coin.
This was followed by two addresses—
one in German by the Rev. Jacob
&ehler, and the other in English by
Rev. W. K. Zieber. Reir. R. H.
Deatrich and Rev. W. F. P. Davis also
assisted in the exercises. The number
of people in attendance was large, and

The church is to be built of brick,
38 by 60 feet, with a spire. The plan is
a beautiful one, and the edifice will no
doubt be the same. It Is to be tom•
pleted by the Holidays.
Fatal Acrid:cur.—A terrible accident
occurred at McKenrick'a Saw Mill, In
Buchanan Valley, on Friday after
noon last. Jacob Buckmaster, color
ed; was employed at the mill to bear
off the slabs. Whlist thus engaged,
he was caught In the strap which
runs the circular saw, and carried
over a large wheel, nine feet in diame
ter, crushing his body in a most
shocking manner. He died about an
hour after. His age was probably six
ty years; He leaves a wife, but no
cbildren.
Struck_ bli Ligfllning.—Some few
weeks ago, during the prevalence of
a very heavy storm, the lightning

Fsio.; In Tyrone township, knocked
out a pOrtion of the gable, and killed a
very flue hotse, stunning several
others.
Iron Ore.—We understand that a
vein of very valuable magnetic ore has

Adams County Boiiroad.—An ad
jou rued meeting of the Commissioners
of the "Adams County Railroad," was
held at the lc elaon Rouse, 1 n Duisburg,
on Saturday, August Ist. The meting
was largely attended by those who
have direct and indirect interest In
the construction of the proposed road.
The object of this meeting was to ap
point Committees to thoroughly can
vass the different townships along the
intended route for subscriptions to
ward a survey, in order that the com
pany may arrive at a pretty correct
estimate of the cost, and. determine
the most advantageous route. The
charter authorizes and empowers the
company to receive subscriptions to
the Capital Stock to the amount of
Four Hundred Thousand Dollars, and
any additional sum necessary to a
completion of the road, whilst the sop.
meta of 1868 gives them the prlvl
leg ' ..loconnect with the P. C. R. R.
or any Railroad connecting therewith,
tehorerer Alley may deem advisable,
and likewise the privilege of extend
ing it from York Sulphur Springs to
Gettysburg, or any point in Adams
county that the company may consid
er expedient. Another meeting is ap
pointed for York Sulphur Springs, to
be held in PeterslAtg the ltd
whenand where the various com
mittees will report their progress, after
which it is expected that a survey will
be immediately instituted, under coin
mend of Gen. W. W. Wright, late
Engineer on the U. P. R. Prospects
for the construction of the.contempla
ted road are assuming a very cheering
nature.
We understand that it is proposed to
make Bridgeport or New Cumberland
the terminus, in preference to Mechan
icsburg, because the road can be more
cheaply made, the right of way would
be less, and tne terminus better for
business when made, the !chief Idea
being to get as.near the lumber Inter
ests as possible, and on a through, in
stead of a branch road.

dent of this place, died at Washington

body lay in state in the rotunda of the

Prodigiea on the Battlefield of Gettya
betrg.-0a ;a grape vine in the vinyard
of Elias Sheads, near this town. is
gruivning au apple: •It springs from
a grape bud, but whether the latter
blossomed for the unnatural fruit is
not known, as Mr. Shttatis did not
notice the, strange phenomenon until
the•other Any.
I have examined the prodigious
growth, and am Itatisfied that It is an
apple. Several others have examined
It, and have arrived at the same eon
elusion. Can it be possible that na
ture, in sympathy with the perturba
tiousof our social slid political systems,
is giving birth to prodigies ? Such.
things have been—so at least history
Informs us—and surely if they are to
be again, they cannot make their ap
pearance on a more fitting theatre than
the battlefield of Get tysburg. Here the
world Is presented with the phenome
non of a spring having the taste and
other sensible properties of Pure and
excellent drinking water, yet imbued
with such astonishing curative power
that It Is rapidly becoming the medi
cine of the nation.
And In this reversal of the ordinary
course of nature, apples may be rea
sonably expected to ,grow on grape
vines, and grapes on apple trees.
