candidate for state senator. Clinton
will present S. I\. Peale ; -Centre P. (>■

The opinion seems to prevail that the

either one is a good euongh man and
democrat.

William A. Wheeler was the uatiring
servant of the Pacific Railroad Ring*
during all the years in which ke was at
the head of the Pacific Railroad Com
mittee. William A. Wheeler pushed
' i i' liw J' ' flljjtT'i daring his mem
bership. William A. Wheeler made the
infamous Louisiana compromise, repu
diated by all the white people of Louis
iana. William A. Wheeler goes about
the country, repeating stale lies about
the appointments of the Democratic
House. A. Wheeler flies the
bloody shirt. William A. Wheeler is a
Christian statesman, and a lineal polit
ical descendant of Schuyler Colfax.
Bob Ingersoll is the last of the Chris
tian Statesmen. The first was Ccbuyler
Colfax, who lied and smiled, and sold
himself for next to nothing. The next
was Patterson, who took the money and
covered it with the cloak of a reverend
college professor. The next was How
arJ.whoembenled Freedmen'a Bureau

Ingersoll, who "defies God" with the
same fish-wife vehemence that he abuses
the Democratic party. They are all Re
publicans.
The New York Tiinw on Sept. 21st re
trasts the charge ofperjnry made against
Gov, Tilden on Sept. 8 In the matter of
the Toledo aud Wabash railroad. It
says: "We must accept the denial as
conclusive. Proof is promised us but in
its absence that, charge must be with
drawn."
The Republicans seem to have lost
confidence in Indiana. The New York
Timc-a of the 28th virtually concedes the
State to Williams. There is little atten
tion paid to West Virginia or Colorado,
while in Ohio hunt" seems to be
the policy on both sides. During the
last week the Democrats have gained in
popular opinion.
Caleb Cushing read Judge Binnott's
statement while in New York, and pro
nounced it a conclusive refutation.
Cushing is a Republican, an old politi
cian, and a sharp lawyer, if there *as
the slightest flaw, he wonld have detect
ed it at once. The vindication is com
plete and satisfactory on the testimony
of the opposition.
A REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT AN EX
PENSIVE LUXURY.
The expenses of the Whit® Hquse un
der Democratic rule were $47,847.50. Un
der Republican rule they aro $108,264.85.
Is not the difference, $00,417,35, rattier a
high price to pay for the honor of hav
ing a Republican in the White House?
Unfortunately this is only an example of
the general profligacy of Republican
rule. The same spirit of reckless ex
travagance runs through the whole ser
yice, from the President down to the
lowest official.
DEMOCRATIC ARGUMENT*.
$30,000,000 saved in annual federal ex
penses by the action of one
branch of Congress in one
Session.
$05,000,000 of retrenchment proposed
and the amount cut down on
ly in consequence of the Re
publican Senate and Execu
tive.
$6,000,000 saved to the taxpayers of
New York Stste in one year
by Governor Tilden.
Under Grant's administration ths
number of office holders has been in
creased forty thousand. At the com
mencement of his administration the
eivil list numbered 54,207, and now it
foots up 119. The democrats under
Tilden will cut down this list of feeding
loafers. Under Hayes it would not only
bo continued but have a further in
crease.
Gov. Bigler is in Indiana making Til

The crooked whisky frauds.

Now if any Centre county voter can
swallow all.the above, why he k cau go
Haves and Wheeler. Tilden and Hen-
[and are opposed to a continuation of
Graat rule by the election of Hayes.
Choose between them. Tilden is known
to be a reformer. He haa given the
best evidence of it as governor of New
York. The men who aided Grant in
the infamies of his administration, are
Cameron,Bibcock, Belknap, Chandler,
and other thieves and every oueofthem
is now at work in running the machine
to elect Haves.
ANOTHER VOTE GAINED FOR
lIA YES.
A pardon has been, issued by Grant
for James K. Hill, who was convicted in
the United States circuit court of India
na on the Ist of February last, of con
spiring to defraud the revenue of the
United States by aiding and abetting in
the removal of distilled.spirits, the tax
upon which had not been paid, and sen
tenced to two-and-a-half years' imprison
ment and to pay a fine of SSOO.
It is not Hayes that will be president,
if that gentleman should be elected. It
is the Camerons, Kembles, Babcocks,
Shepherds and the heads of the whisky
ring—they want a tool elected and have
' picked upon Hayes who is of the pliable
metal to unit them, and the above men
tioned thieves will be the power behind
the throne greater than the throne itself.
That is about as short aud plain ss wc
can pat it in the Reporter.
The Bellcfonte Republican hasacoup-
le of irrespressible correspondents from
Millhoim. One of them "S" puts out a
big quid of sympathy for us, for which
we feel very thankful, and while we ac
cept that, we must refuse his adTice to
"bolt," because a few officer* and a law
office in Bellefonte are engaged in the
work ef doing the Reperter j>ocuaiary
injury, which "8," assigns for the reason
why wo should bolt. Because a few men
may engage themselves in preventing
this paper from getting official adver
tising is no reason for us to follow the
advice to bolt. We knew all that is go
ing on, before **S" appeared as a writer,
and so did other*, and we think we will
survive these efforts to break down the
Reporter. We can stand it, •/ the other
feUonct can, surely.
To stoop to the littleness of injuring a
man in his business, out of petty spite, is
even below the aim of the average petty
fogger, and it betrays a mental (or legal)
calibre that will shoot about 1500 to the
pound—and this Binall shot is directed
at the Reporter because it would not
join the Modoc movement, and help
break down the democraticorganiaation
and its nominees. Well, these fellows
may want to slide down on our cellar
door one of these days.
The Cameron family is unanimous for
liayes. Why?
Babcock is an out-and-out Hayes
man.
Hoseig, the republican editor who was
in states prison because he played a big
band in tbo whisky frauds, has been
pardoned by Grant and be is bowiing
strong for Hayes.
Delaware, Georgia, and Connecticut
held elections last week and the Demo
crats carry in all with largo gains.
Gov. Chamberlain, radical, In South
Carolina, has issued a proclamation or
dering all white military clubs and or
ganizations to surrender their arms.
This follows on the heel ofCameron'sor
der for federal soldiers to that state,
and means that the election is to be car
ried for Hayes by force if must be. In
case they refuse to obey thiß arbitrary
and despotic order, the Governor says he
will call upon Grant to enforce it and de
clare the state in insurrection. Better

be an agreeable duty to perform U.i
task to which you invite me, but 1 ha\ i
not done anything of the kind for fit
teen years, and am now in jny serai
tieth year. Should 1 accept one invito
lion it would probably give rise to other
which would have an equal claim. Mi
judgment is that I had better stay a
home. Yet I think I fully appreciatt
the importance of this canvass. It
narrowing itaelf daily more and mor<
into a struggle between the people at.
the managers who hold the uflirial or
ganizalion of the country for their ow
exclusive benefit. From th days <>:
Credit Mobilier down to the last expo
sures made by the investigations of the
last congress there is only one conclu
sion to be drawn, and that is the preva
lence of corruption almost everywhere
in the republican organisation. The
honest men do, indeed, make brave and
sincere efforts to resist this baleful influ
ence, but they are too often defeated to
raise any just hopes of ultimate succc.v
This struggle lias been going on for
years, and no material change for tin
better lias yet lwen effected. The time
has now conic for a radical change, ami
the substitution of aw holly new influ
ence tied up by no restrictions other
than the genuine wishes of honest men
c-fall parties. Wnen in a great popular
convention of a party to nominate a
candidate for the presidency, one gen
tleman deeply compromised by the in
vestigations of a committee ofthe house
of representatives comes within twenty
five votes of a nomination, and another,
w ho really did honor to himself by fear
less and effective exposures of corrup
tion in high places, could not command
many more than a hundred votes, it
seems to me that it is high time for a
change in the public opinion. Neither
is the case improved by a view of the
manner in which the canvass has been
carried on. The great effort of the re
publicans seems to be to operate on the
popular passions excited during the lato
civil war. Instead of repeating the hon
orable call of President Grant. "Let us
have peace 1" the cry is for raising what
may prove another war. And why is
this? Only because the people in the
southern states choose to vote as they
please, without regard to the corrupt
combinations of office holders all over
the country, wielded by equally corrupt
combinations of legislators at the seat of
government to perpetuate their own
jKiwer. Verily, verily, if the people are
wise they will lay down party and seize
the present opportunity to make a
change. lam very truly yours.

fact i* set down without those dry detail*
of scholastic research which repel rather
than attract the mass of readers.
Whilo the history of eaeh Colony is
complete in itself, the chain of coteropora-!
ry events is shown by a new and inganious!
device in tho form of historical Chart*
finely drawn and colored Mops *l*o show
the political divisions of this country from
lime to time. It is rather startling to turn
to the fine map on page 109, and again to
thHton page 667, and see that more than
four-fitthi of thi* great country was once
in the undisputed po-ession of the French!
Again it appears that wo have acquired
from Spain and her colonies an area thir
teen times the size of Ohio.
But il our territorial growth ha* been
wonderful, what are we to think of the 1
amazing development of late years, as!
shown in the author's brilliant summary I
"During tho year 1871, thero were faidi
and put into operation in tho United .States'
no less than seven thousand six hundred
and seventy miles of railroad I There is
perhaps no fact in tbe history of tho world
which exhibits so marvelous a development
of the physical resources of a nation, lire
the muttering* of the civil war, with its
untold destruction of life and treasure
had died away in the distance, tho rocm
I crativo power, enterprise, and genius of
tho American people were revealed, a*
nover before, in establishing and extend
ing the line* of travel nnd commerce In
18: 0 there were but twuntv-three miles of
railway track in the New World In IM()|
tho line* in the United Bute* had been ex
tended to two thousand eight hundred nnd
eighteen mile*. Ten year* later there wore
nine thousand and twenty mile* of track
.'.ccordirg to the reports of 18ti0, the rail
road* of tho country had reached tho enor
mous extent of thirty thousand nix hun
dred and thirty flvu miles; and in tho next
Un years, embracing tho period of the civ
il war, the amount was nearly doubled.
Such i* the triumphant power of freo in
stitutions—tbe victory ef free enterprise
free industry, free thought. There stands
the fact I Let tho adherents of the Old
World'* methods, tho eulogists of the
past, take it and read it. Wherever the
human race punt* for a larger activity, a
| more glorious exercise of it* energies, let
j the story be told how the United Bute*,
| lust emerged from tho furnnce of war,
smarting with wound*, and burdened with
an enormous debt, built in a single year
more than twice as many iniles of railroad
ns Spain, ridden will, her procedenU of
kingcraft and priestcraft ha* ever built in
her whole career."
Our spare will not permit a more ex
••nded review, but our examination of tbe
hook justifies us in saying that il is alto
gethar superior to any other history of the
United B tales ever published. In
addition to the oxcollencc
of its subject matter, its mechanical ap
pearance is superb. Beautifully printed
and elegantly illustrated, it also posseste*
the additional t cquisito of cheapness. We
have never .cen so valuable a work offered
for so little money, und we heartily recom
mend it to nil.

Republican party. Who has levied and
collected enormous taxes, given away
minims of acre* of our public lands,
plundered the National treasury, tnjuan
; Jered our revenues, paralysed our iu
' dustries, cloaod our mines, rolling mills,
furnace*, forges and workrhopa, and

ANOTHER LIE NAILED.
TllK EMPLOYES OF THE HOUSE.
The Democrats Employ More Sol
diers thau the Republicans.
Of *U the campaign faheboods, which
orm the entire stock in trade of the Re
publican party, none it m re utterly bats
lets than the one that cx c< nfodersto sol
diers have been given s monopoly of po-j
sitions in the House of Representatives, i,
Tho lie has been repeated on every Repub
lican slump froru -Maine to Texas, and by
every Republican speaker from Blaine,
tho arch down to the most
1 insignificant cross-road spouter. The
whole story is the exact reverse of the
truth, and known tj he an utter fabric*- '
lion by nearly every one who has made j
the charge. Tho employes of the House .
arc 132 tn number, and of these only 29 are i
ex-con federate soldiers. Tho Union '
State* have 176 positions, while only 67 j
are held by persons from Stales engaged >
in tho Rebellion, and of these 67 many 1
were loyal to the Union during tha war. '
17 of the old employes are retained, and ,
j the list includes 16 colored men and 68 |
j Union soldiers, of whom 10 wero wounded
iin the service. The number of Union sol- ,
; diers employed is exactly double the num
ber of Confederate soldiers, and the em
ployes from Union States aro over three i
time* as great as thoso from Rebel States.
The Union soldiors employed by the
Republican House in the <3rd Congress,
numbered, as far as can bo ascertained, 1
only f.9, so that thp Democratic House lias
given employment to more Union soldiers
than the Republican House which preced
ed it. In olh'T words, the Democratic
lloute appointed threo Union Soldiers for
every two appointed by the Republicans, j
