Barr, and break tin old Treasury Ring. In this issue of the REPORTER we pub lish some important letters from 1 dwii M. Stanton to President Buchanan a' the outbreak of the late war. Mr. Stan ton was Lincoln's great war minister nnd his letters are a strong and direct vindication of Buchanan's administra tion. which has been so shamefully mis represented by the sppoaita party. M. a .t for these letters a careful pertisal from every republican and democrat. ■ —♦ ♦- If the people of Pennsylvania are alive to their own interests they will elect Pauiel O. Barr their State Treasu rer as a check upon ring rule at llarri burg. All partiea in power are none the worse for watching; and the previous record of unbroken Republican power it the State capital shows that a Demo cratic watchdog at the Treasury hussar ed and would continue to save a good :nany thousand dollars of the people s money from being abstracted in the shape of "divy'a" among party "rocs tere." So says the "Spirit of Berks." and we trust every democrat on Tuesday 4th w ill do his duty. I* there a printer in any county in the s'ate who would consider it honorable, if the printer of the opposite party would otTer to print the tickets for the other party for nothing ?" This question is asked by the Selins grove rimes. We answer No, it is dis honorable and mean, bat what is mean er vet, is to have a candidate who was elected to a good office be so illiberal as to - to pay his party paper for elec tion services and tickets. We have found only two such, however, in 30 years in I'cntre county. Now what do you think of mcA fel lows I*t every democrat go to the polls on Tuesday 4. The Pottsville Ev. Chroni cle says: Mr. Barr is a gentleman who has been identified with the management of fi nancial matters during his entire busi ness life and his reputation for strict in tegrity and pluck among his immediate neighbors is a guarantee that the finan cial affaire of the Commonwealth will be in safer hands whep placed in his keep ing than if they sAuld be committed to the candidate of the Treasury Ring who are making a desperate effort to rein state themselves in power and plunder at Harrisburg. A horrible outrage by negroes upon a family of white persons, shooting of the husband and outraging the wife, is tele graphed from Mississippi. Wonder whether the Tribune and its radical imi tators in this state, will raise a howl over this. Ilere, gentlemen of the radi cal press is a rare opportunity to yelp a la Yazoo, it is a subject that can last you for a month, and furnish a theme for column after column. Now lets hear a help from the Lewis town Gazett?, Lewisburg Chronicle, Belles fonte Rrfmhlicitn, Mifflinburg Teleyraph and other Yazoo shnekera. The official returns of the Ohio elec tion show a majority of 17,129 for los ter over Ewing, and a majority for fos ter over all of 3,855. The Greenback candidate received 9,129 votes and the Prohibitionis's 4,145. The majority for Gen. Uickenlooper (rep.) over Gen. Rice (dem,l is 15.078. The total vote for gov ernor was 668,667. It has been decided by the Reading school board that to get good teachers the pay must be adequate, and so they have raised the pay of all teachers 10 per cent. Good teachers should he paid good wages, and poor teachers poor wages— * there is a distim ion which all hoards should observe. A little singular that the third term ers want Grant because he served in the war, and reject Gen. Ewing who served gallantly all through the war and loat a leg besides. How queer. The temperance women are on the rampage again in Ohio. At Frederick town, on 25. Thirteen women marched to Kelly's saloon and beat in the door and windows with hatchets, and des troyed 1 everything within, including sev eral barrels of liquors and beer, cases, casks, bottles, jugs, demijohns, counters, store and all the fixtures. The building is a total wreck. O'Conner's saloon was also visited and all the liquor destroyed. Drug stores were notified to remove their liquors before Monday or they would be treated like the others. The women will he arrested on Monday. They have a strong money hacking. Great excitement prevails. Had this mob violence occurred in a southern state, there would he another howl over southern outrages, but as it happened in radical Ohio it must be all right. The Belknape, Beechers, Conklingi, Kembles, Quays, Camerons and a host of other prominent disreputable characters wish the republicans to carry Pennsylva nia on Tuesday—will you join their com pany ? Is it the party for a professed Christian? No, no 1 Go to the polls then and vote for that man of stainless charac ter, D. O. Barr. A FRA VD. A forged and fraudulent letter, pur porting to come from Mr. Barr's friends, and mailed in a package from Hunting don, appealing for support on religious grounds, is being published in the Re publican papers. It is hardly worth while to deny the charge—to sensible people, but lest some may imagine there is a grain of truth in it —Mr. D. O. Barr authorizes its prompt denial. He is run ning as a Democrat, as a citizen who ees competent to discharge the duties of the olfice of State Treasurer. No appeal has gone frctn him, or by his knowledge or consent, to aDy one on account of their particular belief in anything ex cept the Democratic party. Democrats go to the polls on l'uesdav, 4, and give Barr a rousing majority in old Centre.

Mr Fvart* himself was given >ne> of the pamphlet* to be left hi* car riage to enter the ball, ami the Young Republicans cite gleefully the fact that almost every pamphlet, instead of being thrown on the floor, was put away in the pockets of the people present, aud will he read in due season. After the meeting a number of Republicans vi.-it ed the headquarters on I'nion Square to say that they had read the pamphlet, and desired to aid in the Young Repub lican movement. A day or two lefore the meeting the Executive Commit tee of the independent Republi cans addressed a letter to Mr. 1 varts asking him to tell specifically the ground* on which he advocated the election to the reeponaible office of Governor of a man whom the Administration it-elf had turned out of office for his incompe tency, and they point to Mr. Evart'a -cant words for Mr. Cornell last night,as a justification of "acratching." The In dependent Republicans say that the call for their documents and for the "scratch ed" tickets from th< interior of the State is increasing daily, and. although they are sending out thousands of documents every day, the demand is greater thnu the supply, and their resources are al ready overtaxed. ♦ • DEMOCRACY IS OHIO. Anybody who iniagiuea the Demo cratic party is on the decline in Ohio should cast his eye over these figures, giving the total Democratic vote at each election for the last eight year: 1872—Fresident. 243.484 1873 —Governor. 214.

The surprise is not in the election of Tuesday last that the lb-mo crats, burdened as they were, suffered defeat, but tha they were able to exhib it such strength and resolution. Sorely there never was more unkindnessshowii a party in preparing it for combat. The issues were awful, yet under these cir cumstances—such that it ought to be a matter of surprise that there is a IVmo cratic vote to each Ohio township—the old party comes out grim as an army of veterans, and fights to the bitter end, in the spirit of the soldiers of Russia, of whom it is said it is not sufficient to kill tbem, they must he knocked down after they are dead. No, we are able to re joice that this surprising host was dis comfited—beaten a few per cent, in a prodigious vote, and we know that tin der the gloom of their defeat there may be disappointment and resentment, but never discouragement. On the next oc casion they wilt turn out again with full ranks. Most assuredly they will turn out again next year with full ranks, and with the expectation of winning. The Republican majority on the total vote is less than three quarters of one per cent, and the plurality over Ewing less than three per cent. .4 SOUTHERN 01 Tit AOK In another colnmn weprint the shoot ing of a son and daughter by a father and then his own suicide. This horri ble affair occurred in Bloomington, 111., a radical state, and had it happened in the south would have been paraded in large letters by the hypocritical radical press of the north, as another proof of depravity of the southern people, and then every body in the north asked to vote the radical ticket But no demo cratic paper will attempt to make party capital out of this b> rrible Illinois af fair, because that would be following the brutal example of the depraved rad ical press of the north, which is filled with slime and filth against the south ern people, with the endeavor to engender hate and passion between the sections of our country, where their work should be to establish peace and good will. There are ten murders in tbe north to one in the south and no one but a fool would expect the south to be free from crime any more than any other section of the country can be free from it. d 001) READ!SO FOR BLAISE. From a opeech by Kx-Gov. Chamlier lain of Maine. "There are some who w ill not have it that tbe war is over till they have their way. From much of the talk of late one would think that all the toil aud trial of tbe war was in vain ; that these soldiers and sailors of youre did nothing of last ing value, and that glorious war and God given victory must count for naught, and that the real way to save the country is to keep certain politicians in ofiice, and that servile following of them is the on ly test of loyalty to the Union. For one I resent this perversion of our motives and this belittling of our achievements. I am indignant at this insult to the memory of that great company of noble souls who are martyrs in a sacred cause and a triumphant cause. Do not mis take theissne. Y'our sons will not have died in vain because the rehelliousstates are brought back into the Union, and send their best men to represent them in congress, even tliongh they had the courage to wield the sword instead of the pen in the time of moral struggle. Men who freely poured out their heart's blood for ttieir convictions, though wrong, are less to be feared than they who skulk in the rear and gloat over the strife so long as they can fill their pockets with plunder, snatched alike from foe or friend " This is prettv sound from a republi can.

DKAKSik: You will see in the New- York papers Judge Campbell's report of the negotiations between himsejf and Mr. Seward, to which I referred in my li tter of last week. They bad been re lated to me by the Judge about the time they closed. Mr. Seward's silence, will not relieve him from the imputation of deceit and double-dealing in the mind* of many, although I do not believe it can justly he imputed to him. I Lave no doubt lie believed that Sumter would bo evacuated, as lie stated it would be. But the war party overruled him with Lincoln and he was forced to give up. but could not give up his office. That is a sacrifice no Republican will be apt to make. * * * EDWIN M. STANTON. His Excellency James Buchanan. Washington, June 8, 1801.

Tbo ac counts wo bavo had occasioned a groat deal ol solicitude concerning you: but I trust tbat you may now bo speedily re stored. I bavo not written to you for some time because there was nothing Jo com municate that would cheer or gratify you. While every patriot ha# rejoiced at lk" enthusiastic spirit with which the na tionlhas arouod to maintain it# existence and honor, the peculation and fraud that immediately spring up to prey upon the vslunteers and grasp the public money of ijilur.iier and spoil bavo created a strong jc i li:.g of loathing and disgust. \nd no MOM t had the IpptUlM# "f imminent [danger passed away and the Administra tion recovered from its panic than a deter mination became manifest to give a strict party direction, u far as possiblo to the gieut national movement.

Pear Sir : Your favor with the continu ation of the historical sketch was duly re ceived. Last evening Judge Black and Uenera! Pix met at my home and connlt •>i together in regarJ|io it. We concur in opinion that a publication at present wojtd accomplish no good. The public uiind is too much excited on other topic* to give attention to the past, and it would only af ford occasion tor fresh malignant alla.-k* upon you. •*• • The narration appears to me to be a clear and accurate statement of tbe events of tho period to which it re lates, with one exception of no material consequence, in rw pect to which the r<* ol lection of Judge B Isck, General Dix and myvelf is louiew hat different from the statement. Speal.ing of the order to *.he Brooklyn not to * .isetnbark the forces sent to l'ickens unlet - tbat fort were attacked, you mentiob it as having been made with the entire unau unity of your Cabinet and tbe approval o' General Scott. That he approved it is fully shown by Mr. Hull's note to you, but oui recollection is that in the Cabinet it was opposod by Judge Black, General Dix and myself. Ido not know that there is bow any reason to ques tion the wisdom of the measure. It may have saved Pickens from immediate at tack at that lime; and 1 have understood that General Scott says that Pickens could not b are been successfully defended if it bad be en attacked, and tbat he speak of this a< a (blunder of tbe confederates. In this vie w the measure is fully vindica ted, and at the time it wa# supported by the St-cre ury of War and tbe Secretary o tbe Navy, to whose departments the sub ject appertained. So f#r, however, as your A Jrainiitralion i# concerned iu poli cy in r cference t" Loth Sumter and Pick ens is fuily vindicated by the course of the present Administration for forty days alter the inauguration of Lincoln- • • General Dix it still hero.
