The prospect in the state is bright for
Dill's election. Our leaders feel confi
dent of the state. Democrats do your
duty in the good work, and sweep out
the Cameron dynasty.
Yoctim was a liardmoney radical to
within an hour and 45 minutes before
lie was nominated for congress by the
greenbackers —one gentleman vouchee
that he was unchanged until one uour
and 36 minutes before his nomination.
We dont care about a few minutes in
this matter. Only wish to say tliat i.
any greenbacker can be made thus to
swallow Yocum, he'll find it 11 choke
•am. Oh, laboring man. don't be gull
ed.
The Fellefonte Republican has done
one commendable"thing—it'has put up
the name of lion. C. A. Mayer for 1 resi
dent Judge. Now let it go the balance
of the democratic ticket, and its Oke
Republican's! salvation will be snre.
The Centre Herald, greenback, has
also raised the name of Hon. t • A.
Mayer for President Judge. One ®aod
idea in them fellows.
All the papers in Centre county —
Democratic, greenback and republican
support Hon. C. A. Mayer for Judge.
And we might add he will get nearly
every vote in the county too.
A rural greenbacker, from the Buffalo
Run region, had Yocnm pointed out to
him,"on the fair ground, last week. "I J,''
says he, "is that our candidate for con
gress—he can't be right, he wears a big
white hat, that's not what I\l look for.''
Jess, so ; a good many will find them
selves fooled in ;jeth—he's a hardsaoney
rad on the greenback ticket. Look oat
for the white hat, greenbackers.
Every leading democratic paper in the
state has a good word to say in favor of
A. G. Curtin, as the democratic nomi
nee of this district for congress. Oat-1
siders think we should be proud of so
distinguished a leaJer. Well, we are—
we have tried Mr. Curtin for six years
and found him a good enough demo
crat. He is doing noble service through
out the state for the good cause, and we
trust the democracy at home will give
him a rousing vote, which would naakc
the Camerons madder still.
Put down Cortin's majorityjn Centre
county at 1,500.
Alexander's at 1,200.
The county ticket at 1,100.
That's the way the thing looks now
and improving with "each shiniag
hour."
Those democrats who have allied
themselves with the "Greenback ' or
ganization can see in the light of the
Ohio election returns what good they
are able to accomplish. They were on
able to elect a single congressman ami
succeeded only in defeating the demo
cratic state ticket and in helping a few
republican candidates for congress to
slip through who woold otherwise have
been defeated. Democrats who vote
the "Greenback" ticket simply aid in
keeping the republican party in power.
They might as well go straight into the
camp of the enemy.
The republicans have credit for the
Credit Mobilier Bwindle,
The Kreedman's Bank Fraud,
The Emma Mine Swindle,
The Carpet Hag Robberies,
The Indian King Frauds,
The Defalcations in the Public Ser
vice,
Relknapery and Babcockerv,
The Black Friday Swindle,
The stolen Presidency,
and in Pennsylvania the
$150,000 Extra Pay Legislature,
The Recorder Job,
The defeat of the Free Pipe Bill.
The defeat of the Anti-Diacrimination
Bill,
The creation of useless and expensive
commissions,
The disregard of the provisions of the
reform constitution.
Increase of ordinary expenditures of
state government over democratic ex
penditures f 1,000,000 per annum.
The Cameron Succession Scheme.
Why don't the greenback candidates
for Assembly come out over their own
names and pledge themselves against
the re-election of Cameron ? It is not
necessary for the democratic candidates
to do this because the status of Wm. A.
Murray and J. P. Gephart is known—
they are in no event for Cameron. But
with the other candidates, including
Simlar, the republican candidate, this
is not the case. Let Bimlar, Gramley
and Lingle, come ont and say to the
people that they are not for the re-elec
tion of Don Cameron to the L T . 8. Senate
if they are really opposed to him.
Thus far these men have refused and
are keeping the voter in the dark. Their
silence we take to mean that the charge
against them is correct.
The people of Centre county are not
in favor of the Cameron succession and
they should be careful to elect men who
arc sound with them upon this impor
tant matter. Messrs. Gephart and Mur
ray are not for Cameron, hence vote for
them for Assembly.
Democrats of Centre, now that both
houses of Congress have been gained by
our party, are you willing to do your
share in course of triumph
until we gain the President ? Wa are
gaining power step by step and now
have reached the steps of the white
house, and with united, harmonious ac
tion, we will elect the next president.
No more radical congresses to iuterfere
in that. Don't have any petty bicker
ings, then, democrats of Centre, vote
the entire ticket, it is composed of good
men all through and is one of the best
we ever had—State and county. Centre
** county democrats must do tbeir share
towards carrying the state.
Democrats, remember the
of this election.
A SOLDIF.R OF TWO WARS
SPEAKS.
Tho veteran (ionernl .lnmes Shields

cinnati on Tuesday evening last in
which lie took invasion to expose the re
publican attempt to make capital out of
the fact that lie was not elected door
keeper of the house of represntatcs at
Washington by the democrats. But the
democrats in congress did undertake to
do a better thing for Clcn. Shields, to re
cogniio liis cmiuent services to the
country by putting hiiu on tho retired
list as a brigadier general. The republi

were an*ions to defeat the democratic
caucus nominee for doorkeeper support

the bill retiring him as s brigadier gen

GOT. Curtin having been an ardent J
democrat for six years that should satis
fy any nwnuMt democrat of liis
democracy. There is no reason at alt
whv anv democrat should refuse to sun
port him. His views upon the financial
question arw sound. He is fighting cor
ruption harder than many old and life
long democrats,and has done our party
great service in Ohio, and Indian* as well
as in oar own state. He is now working
night and day, for Dill, an.' everywhere
pronounces hioaaelf in favor of the
democratic platform. Democrats you
must choose between Curttu who is
right now, although once a republish,
and Seth Yocnm always a republican
and of course always wrong.
Whicb of tii* two, democrats, do you
think it is best for our party to have in
congress. ?
Curtin is a man of great ability who
would at once stand in the front ranks
of able men upon the tloor. ocum is a
man of no attainments, who would
never be heard of there.
Anti-Cameron republicans in Centre
county should remember that the only
safe legislative ticket for them to vote is
J. P. Gephnrt and Wm. A. Hurray. The
republican organization and its nomi
nees are in the Cameron interest entire
ly. It is supported that the greenback
party, by acme of its leaders is in the
Cameron interest and that those who
have joined that organization with hon
tsu purpose, will find themselves duped
whew it is too late, and that they were
only used as a bob to the tail of the
Cameron kite. Vow is the time to put
an end to the Canterou domination.
The question is whether thai corrupt
clan shall have this state under its
thumb for four years longer. Vote for
Gelbart and Murray, and you are cer
tain ©f two men who will not vote to re
elect Hon Cameron to the I*. 8. Hen

ADDRESS OF THE CHAIR
MAN OF THE COUNTY
COMMITTEE.
To the Democratic rotertnf Centre Coun
if .—We are in the midst of a most im
portant political contest. On the fifth
of November, the people of Pennsyl
vania elect a Governor, Lieutenant,
Governor, Secretary of Internal Affairs,
and judge of the Supreme Court, while
in this district they elect a President
judge. Congressman, and state Senator,
and in this county nearly every county
osfioer. The Assembly we elect this
year will vote for a I'nited States Sena
tor, while ttie state senator elected will
have a voice in the election of two Uni
ted States Senators.
For eighteen years the rcpnblican
party baa had control of the executive
department of our state government,
and for most of that time, of both
branches of the legislature. During the
last twelve years the extravagance,
profligacy or corruption of the adminis
tration has been most marked. The ap
propriation and exj>enditure of public
money has been double what it was un
der any democratic administration dur
ing an equal length of time. Moneys
belonging to the "sinking fund," which
was sacredly pledged to the payment of
the public debt, by virtue of a demo*
cratic amendment to the constitution of
the state, have been misapplied
and squandered. Public offices have
been multiplied, and the salaries and
emoluments have been so largely in
creased as to be a great burden upon the
people. The republican party for four
years has persistently refused to enact
the necessary laws to carry into effect
the reforms of the constitution of 1873,
but on the other hand have devised
measures for evading its solitary provis
ions.
I The democratic party has placed in
nomination men for the four state offices
to be filled at the coming election, who
are in all respects deserving of the suj*
port of every democrat. They are all
experienced in public offices, honest,
competent and faithful. It should he
the pleasure, as it is the duty, of every
democrat to zealously work for the suc
cess of the ticket composed of such
worthy candidates.
For President Judge of the 2oth judi
cial district our party has nominated
Hon. Charles A. Mayer of Cliuteu, who
for the last ten years has discharged th*
duties of that office. The great learning,
ability and fidelity to law and justice,
exhibited by judge Mayer in the per*
formance of the trying duties of his
position, have so won the hearts of the
people of this district, that there is no
organized opposition to his reselectiou.
Both the republican and National par-,
ties have dec lared in conference that it
was inexpedient to place in nomination
a candidate for that offloe, iuid the only
opposition there i to the unanimous
election ofJudge Mayor arieea from tho
self-impoecd candidacy of one whoso
ambition has run away with his judge
ment, and whoae desire for public office
has mado him forgot tho pledge ho gave
whon ho naked tho support of tho demo
cracy of Centre county, that ho was
candidate "subject to democratic rulos."
It erory honest Voter in Centre county
whether ho be democrat, republic** or
national, vote for Judge Mayor, und
thereby assist in maintaining the digni
ty, purity and independence of tho judi
ciary.
After * more limn ordinarily exciting
primary cleclibn, the democracy of thin
county presented the name of Hon. An
drew (I. turlm for Congress; and Ihe
choice of thin county WM swbeequenlly
rati tied by the conference compoeod of
represent*!!vcs from all the counties in
the Twentieth Congressional diatrict.
Gov. Curlin was fairly ami regularly
nominated as the candidate of the demo
cracy of thia diatrict, and ita Mich should
receive the vote of every democrat. In
dividual.* may have doubted the wisdom
or pr ipriety of nominating one not born
in our party, or they may have had
preferences for other candidates in or
out of thia county ; but no good demo
crat will refuse to submit to the action
of ihe nominating Assemblies, when the
nominationia regularly ami fairly made.
Gov. Curt in held high and responsible
position* under the republican party,
and during that time differed from
democrats as to the policy which should
control our government. When the war
was over, slavery abolished, and the
negro given political rights, he differed
from his party as to the policy of at
tempting to control elections in the
southern by the use of military
power, and also as to its destructive and
profligate financial policy. The old
issues ujon which he had differed from
us were settled forever, whether for good
|or evil, and upon the new issues which
the progress of events were developing
lie stood side by side with democrats.
Finding that his party was pursuing a
policy which he could not endorse, lie
voluntarily resigned a high and lucra
tive otlice, that of Minister to the Court
of St. Petersburg, and returned home to
take part n opposition to the re-elec
tion of President Grant. His accession
to our ranks was considered so impor
tant at that time, that ill order to give it
proper recognition, F.x-Gov. Bigler was
iuduced to resign his position upon our
state i.ciet as delegate at largo to the
Constitutional Convention, and Gov.
Curtin was placed upon llie ticket in his
stead. Having been elected, Gov. Cur
tin brought to the service of our jieople
his great learning, knowledge, experi
ence and cajnu.it; - , and labored for one
whole year by the side of aach hiding
democrats as judges J. S. Black andGeo.
W. Woodward and Senator C. U. Bucks
lew, and after the convention had com
pleted ita labors, he advocated the rati
fication of its work in apaaches made to
the people of this and other counties.
Curing the political campaign of 1575,
he advocated the election of Gov. Allen
of Cb ID in opposition to President
Hayes, and sua; th," Jhffober election
took the stump in I'ennsytvauM. psp
port of our candidate Hon. C. L. Persh
ing against Gov. llart ran ft. In 1876 he
labored with great real and ability for
tiw success of our party and ita princi
ples in Indiana,/L'bio and Pennsylvania;
andafter the election was by the
Democratic National .Com mittee, in con
nection with Gov. Bigler of this state
and leading democrats from other states,
to go ana to try to prevent tbo
great fraud wlecu contemplated
and subsequently perpetrated khfi
people of this country. In all of these
positions, and at all times, he has been
faithful and true to the trust and confi
dence xopocywj in him ; and at no time
has he hcaiUUd Of refused to perform
any labor, ,V*4 drain
ed necessary to promote tlie Kmya-ttf ofj
our policy, and the good of Lb* people.
He is now laboring in distant parts of
the state for the success of our candidates
and in support of the principles of the
Pittsburg platform. I'uder these cir
cumstances. it would be ungrateful, un
just ami for any democrat to
refuse to vote for inn.. Ji Jias been juHt
forty yearn since .we had a
congressman from Centre county, and
now when we have an opportunity of
electing one, county pride should make
every Centre county democrat willing to
labor and vote for his success.
it baa nearly fifty years since we
have had a de*uortUju state senator
from this county. We have now an op- (
portunity of electing one in the person
of Cyrus T. Alexander, who has hereto
fore served our people w ell in the lower
house. Mr. Alexander is so well known
and so deservedly popular, and posses
ses to so eminent a degree, the capacity,
learning, experience and character,
which fit him for the position to which
he has been nominated, that it is hardly
necessary to say more concerning him.
We have various local interests in our
county, which should be fully and fairly
represented in the Senate, which makes
the election of a Senator from this coun
ty at this time very important, and as
the republican party has seven lit to
make no nomination against Mr. Alex
ander, he should receive the almost
unanimous vote of the county.
It is important that the two candidates
for Assembly be elected, not only to
properly represent the people of the
county in the general legislation of the
state, but especially because they have a
voice in the election of a Senator to
represent this state in the federal con
. gress for the six years from the fourth
of March next.
The candidates for the various county
offices aru ail good men and true. Each
one was fairly nominated uu4 is copipe
tent and qualified fortheoffice foe whvh
he is named. While there were other
candidates before the convention for
most of the offices, who were no doubt
equally deserving and equally qualified,
yet the choice of the convention should
lie ratified al the polls without a dissent.
No good democrat will oppose or scratch
a candidate upon the ticket, two umi h<j
or some friend of his failed to get a
place there.
Let every democrat, therefore, labor
zealously for the success of the whole
ticket until the polls close on the even
ing of the fifth of November next, and
then rejoice together over the great
victory which their labor £nd fidelity
have assisted to achieve.
By order of the Committee,
J. P. GEPHART,
Chairman.

STRONG TKBTIMONY FOR
DEMOCRATS
That Curtin waa GO<NI J-hiotigb in '72.
Then why not even lletter in '7B ?
TUK "WATCHMAN" I'PO*
ill KTI.V
A* the Democratic M'.ifcA isti* which
claims lo be the organ of tba party in ibis
count)-, and fbr more than sixteen years
lias been largely supported by tbe official
patronage of the parly, has not put up the
name of our candidate for Congress, and
has nothing to tay in his support, we hava
taken tbe trouble to reprint the following
extracts from that paper when Gov. Cur
tin was upon our ticket, in 1872, for dele
gate at large to the Constitutional Conven
tion. In subsequent numbers we shall
copy editorials Irom the HuffAmun for
1574, 1*75 and l H 7i>. showing that Mr.
Meek fully endorsed the democracy and
trustworthiness of our candidate from
lhi'2, w hen be first came to us, until the
opening of the present contest for Ihe
congressional nomination.
If Gov. Curtin was a good democrat
enough in 1!-?'-l, to he voted for by demo
crat*; and trusted by them to make a con
stitution, which was to he the supreme
law of the state, ami intended to remain
unchanged for generations, after sis
years addilioual services in the party, is
he not a good democrat enough to be vol*
ed for for Congress, and lo be truited with
a part in ordinary legislation, which may
be repealed by any succeeding Congress '
The democrats of this county can thus
plainly see that Meek's present opposition
to Curtin can have no higher origin than
chagrin at his own defeat, and may result
from even let* excusable motive*.
From Dem Watchman, Aug. 2, 1872.]
Oovarsor Curtin all Bight.
It makes the Grant men in this regien.
ferocious, to tell them that Andy Curtin
is coming home to work for Uuckalaw and
Grealey. They Just fill up and boil over
with indignation, call us poor Democrats
"liars," and various other pet names, say
that it is not true, and generally manifest
the tuesl extreme demoralization over the.
teiheui. uncomfortable and discouraging
news. Tbe intelligence smart* tham so,
that, although they cannot help believing
it. they will rofuie te acknowledge it until
they have it from the eloquent lips of the
Governor himself.
Nevertheless, it is true, and the person
al pretence of Governor Curtin himself
wilt soon uonCrm it. letters have been
received from him avowing bis intention
to support both Buckalew and Greeley,
and to canvass the State for them at toon
as he gets home, which will be sometime
during this present month. He aleo states
that ho bad "determined a year ago to op
pose Grant on account of his ebjectionable
conduct and unfitness, earn if kt kaJ keen
oiUijeil )■> luyyort a itraiykt out Ihmoerat
iijuinst ktm. This settles the matter, and
puts "the great war governor," in our
Slate campaign, on the side ol Buckalew
ard Democracy.
Now, Ui-L, gentleman Radicals, what
have you got to say about it, Here is a
man whom only a few years ago—nay,
less than a year ago—you all swore by,
and would have hooted any one of Tour
number that would have dared to have
said a word against him ; here it a man
whom you called proudly "the soldier's
friend be i< t'odr "great War Gover
nor," the man wno led you to victory in
two hotly contested Slate elections, com
ing heme to tyrak aiui ivtt for Buckalew, j
because why? Beceuse, like an honest
and henorahlo man, he it disgusted and
alarmed at the condition of things in the
State and nation, and aniioui for reform
and a return to pure and wboleeme gov
ernment. Because he knows that Hart
ranft and Allen are the candidates of a
ring of treasury robbers, who. with Simor.
Cameron at their head, have been gorging
themselves off the public treasury tor
Year*. L'wcause he wants to put an end P
bribery, corruption and lp* • jplitios of
law. Because be wants gbofl and cure
men in office, and because he has a Stale
pride that turns with loathing from tbe
depths of degradation into which Geary
.and the Camerons, using llartranfl and
Evans as tools, nave plunged our gran j
old Commonwealth.
Again, ge..l,cp.,n Ef d eals, we ask you
have you got airytfjtng 11 .ay, not
Governor Curtin as good a man now. as be
was when you were all pulling off your
bats and shouting hallelujahs in his hon

consideration, and it not the very fact that
he .snot support either your Stale ot

that a great rottenness a*.,** or-ewhsr#
among your leaders? You cannot impugn
Governor Curtin* Republicanism- it*
was with you through all the year* of tbe

In a letter, mailed at the same time the
despatch was sent, and which was receiv

that tbe news cobUir.eu in if "IS 4- CER
TAINTY AND KNtK'KS THE TALK
OUT OF THE RADICALS DOWN
HERE!"
What will our Radical friends have to
say to this now ? Did we not tell them
that Gov. Curtin was going to come out
Irom among them and take his stand on
tbe side of justice and right a* soon as he
get home? The result has verified our
prediction, and every lover of good and
noDcpf g<ivp;nff)ppt will rejoice that it is
to.
It was fua to observe tbe elongation of
the countenances of the few Kadiaal* to
whom we read the above dispatch, after
receiving it. Like ike boy whom tbe calf
run over, they felt too bad to say much
about it, but their looks expressed vol
umes of chug fin and despair. Their hone,
like a rainbow of summer, seensod to dis
appear in an instant.
It wouii ba sjllr for us to pretend that
we are not glad to hs.6 Gov. op

are, of course, glad to have that influenea
thrown for us. It will help materially to
overthrew the Cameron domination and
the Cameron candidates, and cannot fail
to convince the people of the truth of what
wo have all along told them, that there it
something rotten in the Denmark of Radi
calisßt - Mfl why the defection of so many

Tbe above dispatch, taken in connection
with the very remarkable and exceeding
ly dry letter of Gov. Curtin in this week's
kepublican, declining the Kedical nomi

question of his political position. lie is

The Interpolated Letter of OOT. Curtin
A wu rhargrd 1 wet week, GOT Curtin'*
letter to (Jen Heaver. K C. Hume*, K.
Hlanchard, James Milltken and other*,
wa* really interpolated and changed from
what it wa* in the original. Tola con
temptible trick wa* roaorted to in order to
let tho Radical* down a*y oror the Gov
ernor's declination to accept their run*
groMional offer, and to make the people
believe that be wa* really in favor of the
election of John K. Harlranft. That men,
claiming *o much honor and reapeclabtli
ly a* thoie men do, should retort to *u<-b a
• mall game a* that wa, for the eipre**
purpose of deceiving the people and plac
ing Gov. (.'urtin in a false position before
them, i* meat astonishing, and can only
be paralleled among the record* of the
I lowest i la** of political bummer* ami
scoundrels. For one, we mint *ay that
we are completely dumbfounded nt tueh
bold-faced effrontery. We bad a right to
<>lpeel better thing* of the*e gentlemen,
whatever we might have looked lor at the
huii J* of Urown and other* of that ilk.
Their ronduct 1* a lamentable instance of
the triumph of nelilical haired and pas
sion over the dictate* of personal honor
and manly uprigbtne**. For church mem
bar* and Sabbath school devotee*, their
course I*, to *a.v lb* least, most extraordi
nary
lo prove that what we say and have
said about tin* matter ia van a, and to
tbuislamp tbe seal of dishonor and con
demnation upon tbe forehead* of those
hate interpolator!, we will stale that or
Virr rr* a letter from Gov. Curtin to a
distinguished Philadelphia!!, which *lates,
iu tbe most positive terms, that lb# letter
printed in tbe RryubUcan wa* not printed
a* be had written it, or intended it, and
complaining of the injustice don* hitn by
the men in whom be had confidence
enough to believe that they would at least
give hi* utterance* lo the public rerbatnu
ft Ittfratun.
In ihe letter to which we refer, Gov.
Curtin, tay*:
*'l wrote: '1 am encouraged by rny
physician* to hope that alter a little while
ol abiolule rest, skillful medical treatment
and freadein, 1 may become strong enough
lo discus! tbe pending political issues. My
convictions are welT settled and will be
frankly and fully expressed when I am
able lo do so with justice to myself "
Now, hew did Messrs Beaver, Humes,
Uianchard, Milliken and other* have the
above eilract printed in the Jleyubiifnt
Tbey jutt coolly inserted, after the word
"enough," a* it occur* In the above, these
words: "To assist YOU in discussing
the pending political issues." The Gov
ernor did not tay that, after a ceruin tea- 1
son ol rest, he mitbi become strong enough
to ataist them (the Radicals) in discussing
the pending political issues, but that he
ungui become "strung enuugh to discuss
tbe pending political issues." The words
"to out it YOU" did not occur in the
Governor's letter at all, but were pulthere
ev the highly respectable forgers above
alluded to. The gun, hewever, which
iibey were so csruin was going to carry
;dismay anu destruction into the Demo
cratic ranks, like that one which, wheth
er
"Aimed at duck or plover
Was sure to kick its owner over,"
has bursted in their own hands an t blown
their political heads off.
It is uselass,-however, to multiply words
upon this subject. The personal friends
ol Governor Curtin—the associates of his
lifeUito*— Hid me* ho thought he could
trust in hanor, have basely tried to betray
him and Have RAFLKP. Their* be the
shame and confusion ot their act. The
Governor's own letter which we republish
from the column* of the AW York JVG
tuj of Tuesday, and in which be declares
oldly and broadly for Buckalew and ac
cept* the nominated! of the Liberals f>r
the constitutional convention, puts ell
doubts of his position at rest.
"Now let the galled jade wince,

Retirement ef Oov Bigler In Favor of Oov
Cartia.
We this week place among tho list of
our delegst** to the Constitutional Con
vention. the name of Andrew G. Curtin,
who takes the position so courteously re
tired from bv Kx-Governor Bigler. This
act ol Qoy. Jjigi fli'hf 4U Lbtral He*
publicans a reprasonlation upon tbe tick
et with which tboy are *u cordially allied,
in tbe pciwon of the distinguished Kx-.Min
ister, and will cement still morefirmly the
union of that party with the Democracy.
Governor Bigler'* retirement from ihe
position to which ho was nomiuatod by the
Stato Convention, and which was one of
great honor and responsibility, and one
tbst good men seek after, is a most grace
ful act, and highly complimentary t Gov
Gurtlfl, lp *w faro? tb? ftyrqßiftot is
made. Both Bigler ahfl Curtin are na
tives of Csnlro county, and the compli
ment of the one to the other is a mark of
the mutual respect and esteem that, exist,
between the two. Both Democrats and
Libersl Republicans will appreciate the
honorable and self-tartiflcing spirit of
Governor Bigler and while they will un
doubtedly regret that they arc not to have
bint to vote for this fall, they will also re
plied by tbe substiti/fiulfi of the name of
Andrew G. Curtin, that other distinguish
ed son of Pennsylvania, whose manhood
has so nebly asserlod itself in the present
great crisis in tba political affairs of our
Btale. We hail the act as an omen of the
future re-installment of honesty snd re
form, and honor him who so gracefully
retires and him who so gallantly accepts.
Henceforth let tho names of Bigler and
Curtin be coupled together as tbe embodi
mflbt of manly teipsat-riaki) and <<liiiual
honor.

Brown Damning Curtin.
The most remarkable thine connected
with the Grant and Hartranlt demonstra
tion on Tuesdav night, was the wild speech
of Ex-Doctor Hrown, who was called on
to close tho services. Carr. the Galetburg
pott wtnler, U V- Todd had both
spoken.- -tho speeches ot neither of whom
amounted to much.—and tho crowd, not
large at any lime, had so scattered as to
hayo beoorno positively insignificant. In
order to gel it together again, and adjourn
the thing with somo sort of cclat and
noise, ltrown was requested to mako some
remarks on the County Ticket, and was
called on by tho crowd. With all due
dignity, and with a self-consciousness that

other honest citizen ha*, and the reason of
thi* abuse on the part ol llrown and others
of llial ilk, it the fear of the great influence
that (Jo*. Curtin will wield In behalf of
the Democratic ticket.
At Dens veratt, of course, we do not ob

Two or three weeks ago, the Radical*
said that Andrew G. Curtin was tbe fittest
man in all their party to go 10 Congress
from Ibis district, and they tendered hiai
the nomination. That was before ho had
publicly declared for lfuckalew. Now,
they denounce him as a TRAITOR and a

CURTIN FOR
CONVENTION.
GIVI HIM ZVEBY VOTI
As we stated last week. Gov Bigler has
withdrawn frotn the ticket, at a candidate,
for Constitutional Convention, in fvor o!|
Gov. Curtin, and hit letter e<> announcing
will be found in another place Const
ijnently the name of Gov. Curtin, appears
at our mast head as one of the candidates
for that most important and highly honor
able position.
Now. Deraocrts and Liberals, let Gov.
Curtin gel every vote that you can poll!
His former political friends here, who are
now Ins enemies, are boasting that he hat
no influence and will not ba able to con
trol© ten voles outside of his own. Let us
show them that they are greatly mistaken
by giving him a *oitsu XISPHIT*. lie
is werking for BUCK A LEW AND UK
FOUM in the Stale (jov< rnment-let us
work for him, and let us show by the vote
we shall give him that he has not lost hit
influence or our respect by tho manly
course ke has taken. Let him have every
Democratic and Liberal vute in the Coun
ty and Stale, so that hit malignert and en
emies, who, two weeks ago. were willing
to kiss the dust off his leet, but who are
now so bitterly abusing him, may know
that be is still as much a favorite in Penn
sylvania as ever, and that he it supported
and bis hands uphold by the honest mass
es everywhere. Rally to hi* support then,
and prove that the people are still the
friends of Andy Curtin, at he is still their
(friend.
Of course. Gov Curtin cannot be defeat
ed. 'iiie nature of the law which provides
for the election of fourteen members from
each party prevents that, but we wart
him to have as big a vole as possible. He
must not be allowed to run behind any
other candidate.. On the contrary, it is
important that he should run ahead!
There are peculiar reasons, which every
Democrat and I ibcral i>iii understand
why 111 I. should-he so. Do your duty,
then, and let Curlin's vale be one that he
will be proud 01, and one at which tti
Radicals will wonder.
(Next the U'attkman of Got. 4.
gives a glowing account of Gov. Curtin'*
reception by the democracy, end the
iut.h- .ur, is |[-a perfect ecstacy of delight
over Curtin. For want of room WJO omit

[From tbe Dem. Watchman Oct. 11, 1872 [
A BITTIK FIGHT
The radicals made one of the bitterest
fights here on Curtin for Constitutional
Convention, that was ever made any
where. Thair idea was to make the Gov
ernor run behind the ticket, so ar <o prove
ttibi I.G r... [ong.r pewevsod any Influence.
To thU dud they had the Democratic tick
et printed with Curlin's name out and M'-
Alllster's in • • • • • •
and was dona to intuit and humiliate him.
But they failed. The Governor ran akraj
ot bis ticket, and tbe tnorlifical'on of these
men is extreme-
Let democrats all over the county be
waraoftha
They may be pretended democrats, and
will try to secure a vote for Uramly for
Assembly in order if possible to secure s
Tote from Centre county for Don Cameron
or they msy desire tho votes to scratch
Curtin because he it not a good democrat!
Beware of them wo sny, for they are ene
mies of our party, and agents of the most
oorrupt ring
over In Vcnnsylvani*.
When the Catncrons fight in one di
rection it ie the highest and most im
portant duty of Democrats to fight in
the opposite direction. The Camerons
fight for plonder. and have for 2U years
held their grip upon the public pursf.
Thpj au bait' lighting la deiVal Gov.
Curtin for congress, because he always
stood in the wsy of the Camerons when
they wanted to plunder. lVmocrats, and
honest tax-payers, of all parties, the
most stinging rebuke you can adminis
ter to the corrupt Canseron clan, is to
elect Curtin to Congress by such a ma
jority as will teach the Winuebsgofy
(hatihe puuple have thrown off their
galling yoke.
Tlic greenbackera elected nothing in
Indiana and Ohio, and the roturnsahow
that the new party ia sadly on the back
track in the west. In Ohio the repub
lican greenbackera went back on the
democratic greenbackyrs at the polls.
Wo think that ia what the same fellows
are at in Pennsylvania.
Why should any farmer or working
man refuse to vote for Adam Yearick
for TreasurerT Mr. Yearick is an old
citizeu and farmer of our county, and
there ia not a more trustworthy citizen
in the county. He has never before
held anowcp, and haiig from an intlu
ential democratic connection that has
done the party great service in years
gone hy. Mr, Yearick has all his life
time been an active democrat, and he is
besides an intelligent and well read
man, and possesses the business qualiflv
eations necessary for one who occupies
thp qf treasurer. Ret every far
