Fred Douglass, negro, heads the
Grant electoral ticket, in New York.
Among the Grant electors, in our state
there is also a negro.
Brick Pomeroy was interviewed the
other day when he admitted that
there was no possible show of electing
a candidate if Dominated at Louisville
and yet he persists in having a con
vention to help Grant. If"Brick"
it not well paid for his services in be
half of Grant he is at least entitled to
it and a good round sum at that.
So remarks the Pittsburg Poet. It
is true, too, that the few anti-Greeley
democratic editors were hired to be
"straight out," by the Grantitee, and
1200 of that fund is hinted to have
lodged in a Centre county organ.
Judge Barnard of New York,
whoee impeachment trial has been go
ing on for some time, has been found
guilty of the charges brought against
him, and has been removed from the
the bench and forever disqualified
from holding office. One of the thirty
charges was present taking. How
would Grant fare ?
For the benefit of a few democrat*
who are afraid that the liberal repub
licans will not support Buckalew, we
present an extract from a speech of
Hon. Thomas Marshall, of Pittsburgh
who is the most eloquent republican
in western Pennsylvania.
Said Mr. Marshall :
Bat they say you cau't vote for
Buckalew. Ym, I'm going to vote
for an honest man, and every atate
senator will endorse Charles R. Buck
alew as an honorable and upright gen
tleman. I am opposed to ilartranft ;
(laughter.) I don't think he is very
bad Tthere is not enough of him for
that. [The speaker related the Evans
ufiair, for the repetition of "s hich we
lack space.]
There will be BO democratic bolt in
Del*ware, which the Grantiiea were
to anxiously locking for. GOT. Saula

will be remembered, did the same

Europe.

Morton Pnt Hint In.
Congressman Earns worth, of Illi
nois, one of the ablest radicals in Con.
gress, has renounced Grant, and made
a telling speech, a few days ago, at St.
Charles, 111., from which we make the
following extract: —
Being on the Committee on Recon
struction, and finding a passage in the
measage which I did not quite under
stand, I took it to the President.
Speaking of Georgia, the President's
message says: "I nder these circum
stances, I would submit to you (that is
to Congress) whether it would not be
wise, without delay to enact a law
authorizing the Governor of Georgia
(that is, Bullock) to coorene the mem
bers originally elected to the legisla
ture, requiring each member to take
the oath required by the Reconstruc
tion acts, and none to be admitted who
are ineligible under tbe third clause,
Ac., of the Constitution." As the Re
construction acts had never provided
an oath to be administered to membera
of a.State Legislature I was at a loss
to conceive what the Presideut meant.
For you would think it a little strange {
if Congress should pass a law provi
ding that a peculiar oath should be ad
ministered to the members of the Illi
nois Legislature, would you not ? Be
stepping a little outaide of their busi
ness ? Congress had provided this teat
oath for officers of the United States
Government —Federal officers. 1 went
up to the President and said, "Mr.
rreakknt, I find a passage in your
message here which I do not quite un
derstand. Will you be good enough
to explain to me what you mean by it,
and I read him the passage I read to
yon. The President took bis cigar
out of his mouth after a deliberate
whiff or two, and looked it over, and
answers me thus: "Well, I really
eannot say exactly what that does'
nma.
MOBTOX PUT THAT IX."
(Great laughter.) Morton put that
in 1 The Constitution of the United
States provides that the President shall
Annually deliver to the Congress his
message, with such recommendations
|fe bf 9y ipke; but tyorton put that
in! I did not pursue BIT ioouirjr in
that qturter any further, nor did I go |
to Morton to u\ him what he meant,j
for I did uot recogniw hia right to
send hia recommendation* to Congress
j through a towage of the President of
the United Staler.
After the 4th of March 1873, there
will be no more message* of Grant, for
"Morton to put that in."
Greeley will put it all in himaelf.
A writer recommends George W.I
Yocuut ma radical candidate for con
gress. That would not do. George
is too big a smoker, and Washington
can not hold two auch mokera as Te
cum and Grant at one time. Hut,
George may think Grant will leave ou
March 4lh 1873- So he will, but then
Sherwood will have to be autokod out
first, and we fear George has uot draft
enough in hia smoke-stack for that.
Stay at home, George, get married,
and help rock the risiug genetaliou.
We called attention last week, to the
fact, that the Grant party had raised
a purse and hired such democratic pa
pers as were venal, to appose Greeley's
endorsement by democrats. 1 hev
found few, low enough to eugage iu
the job. But we bear aa instance in
which tbeGrantites were bitten. The
Day Book, for a time, strongly oppos
ed Greeley as the democratic uominee,
which led the radical national com
mittee to subscribe for several thous
and copiea for circulation among dem
ocrats ; but that paper has uow hoisted
the Greelsy flag, and Grant managers
find themselves circulating several
thousand copies of a paper advonatiug
the election of old Horace, at radical
expense.
The democratic rally at the court
house, on Tuesday evening, was a
monster af&ir. The people were out en
masse. The court-house was crowd
ed to suffocation, and hundreds could
not gain admittance. The speech of
Mr. Buckalew was a masterly one, aud
left a good impression, especially
among the honest portion of the re
publicans. Mr. Bnckalew gave an ac
count of his own stewardship in a man
ner that cannot have failed to convince
every republican that all that was
said against him by their party press
with reference to his record during the
war, was utterly untrue, and that hie
record is clean and patriotic in every
particular, as far as regards that ques
tion, and leaves nothing even for the
most iutensely loyal radical to grum
ble at. He showed up the depravity
of the Grant administration and its
usurpations in a manner that cannot
be refuted, and has given the radicals
food for reflection.
On account of Illness, Mr. Clvuisr could
not be present, there was no disappoint
ment however as Senator Wallace was
there and made a pointed and telling
speech.
Mr. OrvU, who *rai chairman of the
meeting, was the last speaker, and as our
readers know of his pewer and ability as a
public speaker, it is needless for us to sey
that his speech was a good ona
The resolutions denounce rings, corrup
tion, and favor reform and pledge the sup
port of the democracy of old Centre for
Greeley, Buckalew, and the entire ticket
Mr. John Smith, we are informed,
haa declined the nomination for count/
auditor. We trust this is unfounded.
Mr. Smith is an honest man and a cre
dit to the ticket, and his resignation
should therefore not be acoepted.
Should there be a vacancy, we would
suggest the name of P. G. Meek. He
will stick, and being so accustomed to
having him upon the ticket, it would
seem so natural, and prevent the brea
king op of
ihusalistl
and bring him to the support of the
democratic nominee for president.
A Curt in Committee
Gov. Curt in arrived at Hew Yerk, the
: other day, and a committee of radicals-
Ed. Blanchsrd and E. C. Humes—was at
once sent off from Bellefonte, to see Andy,
and offer him the radical nomination for
congress in this district, if he will stick to
Grant and the Cameron ring! This wee
hatched at Washington, and Mr. Curtin
must have been considered doubtful by
theee fellows, else there would have been
no necessity for a cemmittee of wet-nurses
from Bellefonte, to wait upon him the mo
ment he steps from the vessel. Great
Jehu! what e bait for Andy! and is he so
doubtful that he must be thus tempted.
But Andy will not prove so greea as this
hasty committee and the Cameron hang
ers-on who sent it, believe him. AH Mr.
Cuitin's bosom friends, bit entire cabinet,
have gone over to Greeley and Buckalew,
have been drives over, and he will go with
them, and not now lick the foot whoeeheei
was upon bis and their necks for the lest
doaen years. If Gov. Curtin can be caught
by such bait, then we mistake Ike man
and loose all the respect we ever bed for
him, and to will thousands of decent re
publicans and followers. Andy go with
the Winnbago! wbew.
Peansralley SOB AD
It having been reported outaide, that the
Pennsvalley democracy would not give
the regular nominee* of the democratic na
tional convention, Greeley and Brwwn,
their support, we here correct the mis
statement. The democracy of there town
ahipan ever faltered, not even during know
nothingiam, wbon there war a break.in our
ranks, alraoet every where elee; and in
November, Pennivalley will roll up
aa large a majority for Greeley aa it will in
October fer that pure and boneat aon of
our own atate, lion. C. S. Buckalew. Im
mediately after Greeley'a nomination by
tbe regular democratic national conven
tion, a large number of democrats, natural
ly hesitated—they were taken by surprise.
But soon the Reporter and other demo
cratic organs, satisfied of thoee
who doubted of the policy of Greeley's
nomination, and of hit being in perfect ac
cord with the domocracy in opposition to
present-taking, nepotism, corruption, and
Giantism in all its phrases, that now, with
very few exceptions, the democratic par
ty of Pennsvalley may be said to be a
unit for Greeley and Brown. We have
taken some pains to inform ourselves upon
this point, and the November election will
tell that we are correct. From Miles we
hare reliable information upon this point;
tho tame from Haint, Penn, Gregg and
Potter, and this from intelligent citizens
from every quarter of each of the town
ships named. And if there still be one
hero and there, whose devotion to dtmoc
[ racy makes him feel jealous towards Gree
ley, the ides of November, proceeded by
the triumphant election of Buckalew in
October, will see all these doubts dispelled,
and find them working in unison with
their old democratic brethren.
*he radical county convention met on
Wednesday, but we went to preea before
learning of their nominations. Levi Mill*
er will be their candidate for sheriff, and
Henry Meyer is mentioned for prothonota
ry, but We art told would not accept 1
Ada. t
The party o£Gen. Grant i in sad 1
rant ofa name. It will never do to '
ro to the country ni the Granule*, for '
bat title reprteeuta only two things : '
be personality of their candidate, |
which from a lever to lift them, as it
was iu 1868, has become n load to be
carried ; and the special disposition
cf their caudidate, which is that of the
daughter of the horse-leech, crying
"Give, give," or what amounts to the
same thing,,"Grant, grant."
It would tie absurd to t all thcui the
"National" Republicans ; for they
base their whole policy on subjuga
ting one part of the nation to the will
of another pait of the nation, and ate
openly the party of sectional domina
tion.
To call litem plain "Republicans"
is equally absurd ; for it is of the es
sence of a republic thnt the military
should be subordinated to the civil
authoritv, and President Grant has
surrouudod himself with a "military
household," makes treaties for the
armed occupation of a foreign island
by his "aide-de-camp," and used his
utmost and personal influence at the
end of the late session of Congress to
force through the house, as ho hud ,
forced over the rules of the Senate, a
bill for regulating the Presidential
election iu all the States, aud iu all
parts of all the Statu*, by the bayonets
of the regular army.
Why not, theu, coin a now uaiuc
from the actual motto of the President
and his party as put forth by the
Pennsylvauiau member of Grant's
National Committee ? Mr. Kemble,
Treasurer of the Utate of Pennsyl
vania, has just been selected from the
whole Grant party in that State a
their representative man on the
strength ofa letter written by him to
one Titiau J. Coffey, recommending
the latter to support a certain person
bent on englueeriug through the Gov
ernment a fraudulent claim, because
that person understood "addition, di

To Titian J. Coffey, Esq., Washington.
Uuder Johnson the whole Judiciary
system cost the people, in 1867-8 juet
$723,368.57.
In 1870, Grant squandered 92,610,-
352.58 on this branch of the Civil (Ser
vice.
In 137J, Grant managed to increase
this gross waste of the public money
up to $3,820,918.98.
- Boutwell claims that nearly 9300,-
000,000 of the debt has been paid off
by Grant in three years. Admitting
this to be so, what credit attaches to
Grant*? These hundreds of miliums
certainly didn't come out ol his breech
es pocket. No part or parcel of it was
paid out of the bonds, houses, or mon
ey received by him iu the form of
presents from expoctants of Presiden
■ tial favor- It came from the pockets
|of the people in the shape of duties
I and taxes.
This same Boutwell was a member
of Congress, and in one of bis speech
es ia ths House in June 1868, said
that from ths Ist of January 1865 to
the Ist of January 1868, two years
and nine months, we have paid out of
the public Treasury one thousand five
hundred and fifty two millions of mon
ey, of which one thousand and sijety
x million* were on account of the
public debt.
Now, as Andrew Johusou was
President during these two years and
nine months, it is plain that he paid
off 9384,000,000 per year—Mr. Bout
well himself being the witness.
We claim no merit for Johnson,
nor can any merit be claimed for
Grant it is as 100 for Graut to 384
for Johnson.
The Bail Bond
The Brass Wordt of Horace Greeley.
After Mr. Greeler signed Jefferson
Davis' bail bond the union league
club of New York notified him to ap
peer before them and give an account
of himself. He replied in the Trib
une at soma length, and among other
things said ; "It is not my habit to
take part in anvdiscusaion which may
arise among other gentlemen as to my
fitness to enjoy their society. That is
their affair altogether, and to them 1
leave it." The conclusion of Mr.
Greeley's reply is as follows, and in as
fearless words as were ever uttered :
"Gentlemen, J shell not attend your
meeting this evening. ! have an en*
gagement out of town and shall keep
it. Ido not recognize you as capa
ble of judging or even fully apprehend
ing me. You evidently regard me as
a weak sentimentalist, misled by a
maudlin philosophy. I arraign you
as narrow-minded blockheads who
would like to be useful to a great and
goo i cause, but don't know how. Your
attempts to base a great, enduting par
ty on the hate and wrath necessarily
engendered by a bloody civil war, is
as though you should plant a colony
on an iceberg which had somehow
drifted Into a trophical ocean. I tell
you here that, out of a life earnestly
devoted to the good of human kind,
your children will select my going to
Richmond and signing that bail bond
at the witetl act, and will feel that it
did more for freedom and humanity
than ail of you were competent to do,
though you had lived to the age of
Methusaleh. I ask nothing of you,
theo, but that you proceed to your
end by direct, frank, manly way.
Don't sidle off into a mild resolution*
of censure, but move the expulsion J
which you propose, if I de
serve any reproach whatever. All I
care for is that you make this square
stand-up fight and record your judg
ment by yeaa and nays, f care not
how few vote with me. nor how many
vote against me ; fur I know that the
latter will repent it in dust and ashes
before three years have passed. Un
derstand, "once for all, that I dare
you and defy you, and that I propose
to fight it out on the line that I have
held from ,tbe day of Lee's surrender.

fore the war the sum total of their iu- J
debudness was seventy six millious.

I>. li. Rush, one of ike loading demo
crats of Centre county. Pennsylvania,
having been invited to attend the straight
out convention at (Louisville, decline* to
train in thelrrowd in ike following signifi
ennt letter.
Hxu.xrusit. Pa., Auiuit 1. Mr. M*m.
It. Sip**, and olktrt, Pktli*Jtlpkia Pa.—
Gksti.kmkn : lam in receipt of a printed
circular addressed to me, dated Philadel
phia, August 18, itCi, and signed "Win.
11. Sipes, chairman, and Chit. F. Rein
stein. Chat. Johnson, Lew. Duncan, H.
Christy, committee on correspondence,";
purporting to have been "appointed by a
meeting of the democrats opposed to the
sale of the party to Greeley and Brown,*' j
held at the Girard house, Philadelphia,
on the 12th inst, inviting me to assist in
sending delegates t> a convention to be
held at Louisville, Ky., on the 3rd proxi
mo. Notwithstanding
ed acquaintance with the prominent men
of the state, I fai! to recognise upon this
committee any leading democrats, whom
it would be safe for a member of our par
ty to follow unquesliomngly. It it there
fore necessary to inquire what the real
scheme is in which you invite me to co-op
crate. you say the persons who constitu
ted you a committee of correspondence
are opposed to the "sale of the party to
Greeley and Brown," but you do not give
any reasons why they prefer that the con
veyance should be made to any other gran
tee. You also object to the transfer e(.
three million democratic votes in "ex
change for a iew petty offices," but neglect
to inform me the consideration for such
transfer would have satisfied you, or wha(
you expect as a compensation for the pros
ent movement. I think you 'are mistaken
when you say "that many of the purest
. and wisest democrat* in the land will lako
part" with you. Undoubtedly many thou
-1 land* of our party would have preferred
*ome other nomination* than those made
at Baltimore, but the action of the national
convention ha* determined who the candi
dale* of our party ihall be, and all pure
and wiie democrat* will acquiesce.
No person outside of a lunatic atrium
can imagine that the nominee* of the
Louitrille convention could by any
possibility bo selected. Tho only
object, therefore, In holding that conven
tion, it to distract our party, direct vote*
from Greeley, and thereby directly assist
in there-election of Grant. But two class
et of men will take part in such a pro
gramme—the one, natural fanatics adher
ing to Our party, who are always disalitflcd
what the majority doe* ; the othor, a cla**
of corruptible nice who are being purchas
ed by the money stolen by Graut'* admin
istration from tho ]>eople. I therefore
think that you are mistaken saying "tbp
honor of no democrat can be assailed for'
participating is such a national assem
blage." I tee'no particular objection in
you gentlemen protesting against "the
shameful abandonment of peliticaljionor"
which Judge Black, Judga Woodward,
Charles K. Buckalcw, Iliester Clymer and
more than .100,000 'other democrats
fail to protest against, especially if tho
radical tat central committee, Simon
Cameron and Grant's administration are
willing to pay the cost of tho protest. In
conclusion, you ask me to furnish you with
the address of gentlemen who will go from
this congressional district as delegate* to
Louisville, "so that transportation can be
furnished to and from the convention." It
wotyld probpbly have thrpp-n some light
upon the question In whose interest is the
Louisville convention to be held, if you
would stnte who it to famish this transpor
tation. Are the different railroads making
an exception in favor of this convention,
and giving free transportation ? It this
transportation paid foroutofthat immense
corruption fund, said to ]>o counted by
millidns, which has been placed under the
control of Bimon Cameron and his "rings"
to carry I'ennyslvania and perpetuato nil
power in this state ? You, gentlemen, nof
bring iuttiuient|y explicit upon those pointa
and I, failing to recognise you among the
safe leaders of our party, must decline the
invitation to bear you company.
Youre truly, D. G. Bean.

_______ •
Chungs, Augiiit 80.—This has been on* j
if the most sxciting days the board af
radu uf Chit-ago has aver knows. Ths
-slsbraled wheat corner, which ha* hasti
utlaiits J by a cllqua of ths heaviest grain
itsn uii 'change, for thra* or lour weeks,
a#t, buiat this moraing with a crash that
-arrieddown at toast Ave of the heaviest
•Iterators in the oily. At tha opening of
i hangs to-day, ths call for margin* occa
sioned by the long fell uf yesterday, from i
AO to 180, was met by a refusal on ths part ■
>t the corner men ta respond, and imoiadi- *
Italy the excitement grew intense. Tha
ndignatiun of the operators who had placed r
heavy margins with the corner men from |
lime to time was prodigious. t
The names of lit* bouses believed to hav# 1
been broken by the crash are J, B. Lyon',
A Co., Muggins A Peabody, M'Dwmult
A Ontel, F. Diamond and Hugh Mahtr 1
There are other names mentioned ol those '
who could not put their margins. This 1
list would have bean largely increased
had not a number of lea* confidant parties I
sold out yesterday 1
Large quantities of wheat had been run j
into the city from the country, and Mil- |
waukee supplied several hundred thou- I
sand bushels within the past few days,
while several cargoes that had bean ship
ped out for Buffalo waro racalled. Iowa;
sent word le Chicago that if oars could he j
had sbe would send 'JUO.UOO bushels per
day ta the city, and against all this no cor
ner could possibly be sustained.
Yesterday morning wheat sold for ft.664
aud had dropped last night to $1.37. This j
morning the opening figure wa**sL27|
and during the forenoon fail to sllO,
making the decline la twenty four hours'
fully 4*>4 otftD per bushel. The general
feeling on the heard to day is one of hos
tility ta the operators of this gigantic bub
ble, which has absorbed an untold sum of
money. The heavist actual loser* being,
as is usual in these eases, the weak man la
business, who have time upon time placed
their margins white the price* were appre
ciating, but they must suffer the loaa.
It i* aid many eastern peculators are
heavily involved in the losses of this
"black Friday," as although they may
have told at figure* much above what they j
gave, the purchasers are, in maay cases,
ruined and unable to pay, and the sailers
w ill be held for what they paid, which i I
far above present prices.•

The election of Buckalew here in October
would be fatal to the success of Grant ta
November. Desperate extremities must
be resorted to, and they arc at hand. It is'
notorious tbat the City of Philadelphia has
at any time since the war been Democratic

that city, passed by a Radical Legislature
in the interest oi the ring, ha* made an
honest vote imposublc, whore the Board of

- It may interest the Grant men, who are
d so fond ot quoting Greeley, to read what'
t Grant has said. We give specimens be
. low:
" j "1 only voted at one Presidential elec
tion, and then I voted for Buchanan."—
c Grant in 1860.
"There is such universal acquiescence in
the authority of the general government
n throughout the portions of the Southern
0 States visited hy roe, that the mere pres
y cnce of a military force, withou} regard to
numbers, is sufficient to maintain order."
-Grant's Report to Congress in 1088.
"I am a democrat, and when 1 am cen-.
vinced that this war is waged to prosecute'
t the designs of the abolitionists, 1 pledge
my honor as a soldier that 1 will carry my I
~ sword on the other side, end cast my lot I
- with that people."—Grant in 1863.
. | "The liberties of the country cannot he
• maintained without a one-term amend
ment to the Constitution.' - Grant in 1808
Boo* Tweed, chief of th notorious
, Tammany plunderers, has gone into a
1 ( coalition with the Granlitea. Where
