Col: DIX ON is a modest, retiring, -unassuming gentleman, who bears upon his face the impress of essential honesty, and will make a reliable Legislator. His public record; like his private chameter,ls not only beyond reproach, but such as to command popular confidence. Ou the outbreak of the Rebellion, Col. DIXON was engaged in Mercantile business at St. Thomas, Franklin coun ty, his partner being Col. ELDER. As the telegram announcing the firing on Fort Sumpter flashed over the country, both promptly °tiered - their services -to the Government. The store was left , to take care of itself, in the pressing call ; of the country for volunteers to meet the shock of armed Rebellion. Col. DrxoN not only volunteered himself, but set, to work to get others to folitiw hi in—raised a Company—wins corn in is sloped Captain on the 18th of April, 1861—and served gallantly through the War with the famous Pennsylvania Reserves, participating in all the hard fought battles down to the terrific strug gle at Coal Harbor. Ile was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel of the 6th Re serves, Sept. 13, 1862, for gallant services at Fredericksburg—was made Colonel foriiidlant services at the Battle of Gettysburg, participating in the bril liana charge made bYthe Reserves, un der Gen. CRAWFORD, during the sec on I d,y's tight, which broke the Rebel lilies at Round Top and ended the day's fight, receiving a bullet wound in the face. His regiment participated in the terrific fights In the-Wilderness, from whence GRANT sent back the famous despatch announcing his purpose to "fight it out on this line, if it takes all summer." For . gallant services at Spotsylvania Court-house, Col. DIXON was brevetted Brigadier General. In June, 1864, the Reserves were muster- ed out, and Col. Dixon returned home, to find what was reit, of his store pil laged by lltfcCA.nsfarr's brigands, who passed through St, Thomas after burn ing Chambersburg, Col. Dixoti, like a true spitiler, Is re luctant to speak of his military services —thinks he only did his duty—and es teems the sacrifices made by him a light contribution to his country in its hour of trial. He is a candidate now not by his own agency, but because the Republicans of the district demand his services. Such is Col. DIXON. We have scat tered all over the county veterans of the Reserve Corps who know all about him, and who_ will remember him when they go to the polls. His opponent is CALvikr M. DUNCAN I of Chambersburg, who had the good fortune to receive from a rich relative sufficient fortune to enable him to live at ease. Mr. DuNcAN either couldn't see anything in the War demanding his services, or didn't like the smell of gunpowder. At all events, while Col. DIXON was perilling his life and all in behalf Of the Government, standing up bravely amid the crash of shot, and shell for three long years of earnest deter mination to put down the Rebellion, Mr. DUNCAN saw fit to keep out of all danger—stayed at home, enjoying the luxuries which wealth can command, and making money. Mr. DUNC4N now asks to be sent to the State Senate, i instead of Col. -DixoN. Voters of the 16th Senatorial Dis trict, whiehdo you prefer? DixoN, the fighting soldier ; or DUNCAN, the stay at-home Copperhead? ITOW FOR rENNSFLYANI4 The Republican victories in Ver mont and Maine show what earnest work and thorough organisation can accomplish. The Democracy are ClO moralized by the outrageous policy of their Rebel-Copperhead leaders, and thousands are ready to vote for Grant and Colfax, as the only sure means of securing Peace for the country. Penn sylvania, Ohio and Indiana are to speak next, and all three will follow in the wake of Vermont and _Maine, if the Republicans do that' duty. The Octo ber elections will largely settle the Presidential struggle. In every table put forth by the Democracy, they find it necessary to put down all three of these States for Seymour in order to elect him. If but one goes for the Repub licans in October their table is knock ed Into pic—if all three go Republican, Seymour and and Blair will be no where. All three will go Republican by large majorities if the friends of GRANT and- COLFAX do their duty, Hence the importance of active, earn est work, and a full vote in October. Close up the ranks 1 Gather in the stragglers. See that every friend of GRANT and COLFAX votes the Repub. lican State and County Ticket, and ALL WILL DE WELL. GRAND SOLDIERW. MASS MEETING The National and various State Com mittees, representing the loyal Soldiers of the Republic, have united iu the call for a Grand Mass Meeting of the Soldiers and Sailors, to be held in Phil adelphia on Thursday and Friday next, Oct. 1 and 2. It is intended to be the great meeting of the campaign. The various Grant and Colfax Clubs of Philadelphia will be in line, with del egates from every State, and the best speakers will be on the ground. The Committees have made arrangement' with the Pennsylvania and connecting Railroads to carry Soldiers in squads of three or more, with their wives and children; at two cents a mile, and RETURN FREE. We hope to see the "Boys in Blue" of Adams fully repre sented . ME! A WORD TO REPUBLICANS Republicans of the townships, are you organizing -youf districts so as to insure the polling of every Republican vote and the protection of your elec tions against any frauds that may be attempted by the opposition? Organ ization and work insure Republican success ; apathy and carelessness may give the victory to the Democracy and and their rebel allies. Don't defer the work, but see to it that all the arrange. ments for polling a full vote are com pleted at once. Don't trust to the supineness of the opposition. They are working and will have out their. ast Marl. WE understand. that Mr. DUNcAN, the Copperhead nominee for State Sen ate, is spending money freely in this county. He can afford to sio so. He has plenty of It, and took mki.e to hoard it up, while Col. Dixon wss spending his freely in helping to put down the Rebellion. Dunces also boasts of his ability and purpose to "buy enough of Republican votes to **et up defections in his own party and elect him Sena tor. Let hint try it. He will find the Republicans 'of Admen; ere not quite the "marketable" commodity he sup poses thew. HIS it,-V.PPPP ,~-::~~. ERSE E 110EME0911 CY AND ,raalljAil.

Con gress has removed taxation from ten t housand articles of domestic consump tion. In short, taxation has been re moved from pretty much everything, except liquors and tobacco, banks, and insurance companies, large incomes and foreign goods. But the Democrat ic party, under its doctrine of "equal taxation" of everything, will restore all the property the Republicans have exempted, including farms, lots,houses, live stock, produce, furniture, etc. For example the "real value" of a f sulky driven by the sporting man, and of a farmer's hay wagon in the country, -may be about the same.— The Republican party prefers to lay a tax on the former and none on the lat ter; b lieving that the v.ellicle kept for the rich man's pleasure ought to pay rather than that kept for the laboring man's neteassity. The democratic par ty proposes to tax both equally. The beautiful chronometer repeater, with independent second-hand stop, with which races are timed on a city race course, costs just about as much as an average Kansas or Minnesota farm. But the Republican Congress hare levied an enormous duty on the watch equal tout least a good year's entire profits from the farm, and an annual payment betides; while they the farm free.. The democratic . party pro pones to tax the far% as much as the watch. The Axminster carptt iu a luxurious city parlor is worth about as ranch as a good farm-house in Pennsylvania or Ohio. The Republican party would maintain the law which taxes heavily the rich man's tapestry and leaves the workingman's dwelling free. The democratic party proposes to tax both equally. A cigar of average quality costs the consumer about as much as a common loaf of bread. A bottle of choice old Madeira wine, such as same leading city democrats give their guests, is worth as much as a barrel of flour.— The Republican party in Congress have voted to tax the wine and cigars very heavily indeed; but have refused to tax the flour and the bread. The dem ocratic party proposes to tax equally "every species of property, according to its real value." It flour be taxed like old Madeira, and bread like cigars, the loaf that is now ten cents cautiot be sold for less than twenty-Ave. Every wan who hits access to the laws eau supply scores of further illus trations for himself. Which principle of taxation do the voters of the coun try prefer? That of the Republican party, to tax those kinds of property which will bear It best; or, that of the democratic party, to tax equally "every species of property according to its real value "? Thiskind of "equal taxation," prom ised by the Seymourites, may suit the "bloated bond-holders," bpt what say the Frtrrner, Mechanic and Laborer to it? The South Bend Register thus sums up the fruits of this new policy : "If the Democratic party is successful in the coming election, the sentiment of the above resolution will be carried oat. Equal tax will be levied on every species of prop erty, and you will see Democratic tax.gath erers in every street, lane, highway and by way of the land, demanding and collecting from you taxes upon— Your farts: Your house and lot. Your horses, cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry, and other stick. Your wheat, oats, corn and other grain, hay, frUit, Vegetables, and whatever else is raised upon your farm. Your reapers, plows, harrows, and •all agricultural implements. Your wagons, carriages and sleighs, kc. Your tools, with which you prosecute Your trade, he you a blacksmith, carpenter, wg*.on maker, or what not. The clothes yourself and family wear. The food you eat. The tea and coffee you drink. The pot in which it is boiled. The cup out of which you drink it. The sugar to sweeten it. Every particle of food you eat, The stove on which you cook it, The wood and coal you use. Your carpets, chairs, tables, and other furniture. The bed you sleep on. And lastly, the coffin and, shroud In which you are buried, atter being worried and harrassed to death by Democratic tax gatherers, under a Democratic administra tion which taxed everything equal. And for what ? Simply that the bonds may be taxed. Yes, this Democratic equality would place a tax uporenearly seventeen billions of dollars' worth of property in farms, live stock, houses, eatables, clothing, etc., for the sake of having a tax upon five hundred millions of bonds held by individuals in New York and New England, all the rest of the bonds being taxed as shares of stock in banks, insurance and other business, or arc ont of the country. Do you want to pay this enormous tax ? If you de, vote the Democratic party into power, and, heavy as your taxes have been in the past, they are nothing to what you will have to pay under Democratic rule. Remember that equal taxation, as ex pressed in the Democratic platform, rAxEs CATHOLICS ON COLOR. The Catholics are laboring among the freedmen in Baltimore ; in their schools and churches white and black sit together. The priests openly declare the doctrine that "God makes no distinction, and the Church cannot." Commenting upon the above para graph, the Cincinnati Catholic Tele graph, the leading organ of the Cath olic Church in the West, which is edited by Very Rev. Edward Purcell, a brother of the most Rev. Archbishop Purcell, says : The above is from the last number of the Presbyterian Witness. When was the writer of that item born—where has he lived ? He must have been taking a Rip Van Win kle snooze foreome eighteen hundred years. The Catholic Church has always done this. Blacks and whites study and recite and eat side by side at the College of the Propagan da, Rome. Thereare.now seventeen ne groes being educated for priests in one in stitution in Naples. Last year a negro student carried off the highest prize at the Propaganda, Rome. The same equality prevails in her churches through the world. Archbishop PURE[ will have to look out, or the Seymourites will be after him with a sharp stick. He inusn't forget that this is a "white man's government" and that according to Democratic gospel, black men have no rights which white men are bound to respect. Where is WALLAce Tun Democracy demand that the real estate of Pennsylvania, which was valued in 1861 at $1,416,601,818, and which the Republicans have exempted from State taxation, shall be placed on the duplicate again and be subject to State and Federal taxes. The National Banks of this State, with fifty millions of capital, paid over two hundred thousand dollars of taxes Jest year, while the real estate paid nothing.— Under the new Democratic -.scheme of "equal taxation," the batiks would have only , one-twentpninth of this sum, mai /6;000, to pay, and the other 1 8193,000 would be assessed on the Wm- era cad lot-owners.

If the tax is two per cent. on the value of State, county, school or na tional bonds, it shall also be two per cent. on the cost value of farms, shops, dwellings, stores, factories, mills, ves sels, horses, cows, sheep, bogs, poultry, merchandise, implements, utensils and tools. 5. The imported property shall be taxed the same rate as domestic pro ductions. If two per cent. is levied on manufactures, farms and farm products, so two per cent. will be the tariffon im ported goods. Under this democratic rule of taxa tion, the farmers and planters will pay a direct tax equal to three-fifths of the whole amount required for the support of the National GovernMent, whereas they now pay, under the Republican rule, no direct taxes whatever. JUDGE KIIIMELL RE•ENFORCED I TWo weeks ago, we alluded to Judge KimmELL's . substiiiitial justification, in the fall of 1885, of the BOOTII assassina tion. There are other Copperheads who concur with KI3DIELL. One, quite notorious, C. C. Bunn (suggestive name!), talks in this' wise in a recent number of the Old Guard, a Democratic monthly 'published in New York by the publishers of the Day Book: : "A hundred men of the pluck and pa triotism of Wilkes Booth, at the start of these terrible despotisms, would have saved our country. The moment any man be gins to play the despot he forfeits his right to life. Just as many days as these infam ous tyrants (Grant, Sherman, Schofield and the Radical members of Congress) have lived since they began their despotism, hare they lived too long." Puua of Ohio, who admits that he "didn't feel called upon to manifest any particulut enthusiasm for the war," publicly declared, a few days ago in a speech in Ohio, that the Democracy in tended to upset the Reconstruction Acts and all done under them. These are his words: "We Democrats propose to treat it (Re construction) as an outrage and upset the whole of it and get the thing right. [Ap plause.] Then they say that_ ; mean swar.— Well, gentlemen, if it means war, LET IT COME. • * * * Now, lam not a war man ; I am at an age when I could not be conscripted into the militia. Therefore I am not anxious for any war; but I tell you this, gentlemen, that there shad be no peace until these outrages arc all set aside, and it shall make no difference whether it is to this election or in any other election. If they want me to go further as to myself, I will say that these outrages are so great, their offense is so rank and stinks to HeaVen, if I could not find means of beating them peaceably .1 would beat them it any manner possible. [Great ap plause.) THE Massachusetts Democrats are "hard-money" democrats; and their candidate for Governor, JOHN Q. AD AMS, pronoulicekthe "greenback" cur rency "unconstitutional (mummy which we are compelled to accept as money." He is utterly opposed to the "extension of the intolerable nuisance of au unredeemable papei currency." He believes in "hard money," and therein holds himself to be a "true: Jacksonian Democrat." Thus, Democracy has two policies on Finance, as well as Reconstruction. It changes its coat to suit every climate ; trims its sails to suit every breeze ; and is determined to cheat somebody, if it gets a chance to cheat anybody. As an organization, it is wholly unprinci pled, and untrustworthy. MIME are twenty-three Freedmen's Savings banks, in various towns in the South, established within two years. Recent returns show that there are over $820,000, on deposit In them !. $320,091.89 were deposited in the montn of July last, and $:172,278:30 were drawn out, making a net-gain of deposits of $47,715.53. When we remember the IoW rate of wages .paid the Freedmen; and their limited experience of business, it must be confessed that they show great ca pacity to take care of themselves. With a fair show, they will as freemen add to the wealth of the country five times the amount they would as slaves.— Emancipation will thus proye not only a-blessing to that race, but an infinite befit to the whole country. BRICK POMEROY—the defamer of LINCOLN and villifier of GRANT—who denounced Bishop SIMPSON and the Methodist Conference at Chicago as chicken-thieves and carpet-baggers— addressed a Seymour and Blair meet ing. in Reading on Friday cast. On the same day ROBERT TOOMBS, who boasts of having been a Rebel and Traitor, addressed a Seymonrite meeting in Georgia, rivalling Pomeroy In scurril ous denunciation of Gen. GRANT.— Both are prompted by the same motive —hatred of the great Soldier who whipped the Rebels and - crushed the Rebellion.. J. Q. ADAMS has accepted the Dem i 0 0 /14 1 0 nomination for,.

So say we. or' =MME EIIEL MILSSACRE.IN GEOROIA We are beginning to reap the fruits of Frank Lllair's revolutionary policy. Outrages and murder is the order of the day through the South, and now the telegrt brings information of a horrible massacre of colored men at Georgia, on Monday last. A Republican meeting had been announ ced, to be addressed by the Republican candidate for Congress. A large pro cession of colored men entered the town with drums beating and tanners flying, and onjeaching the Cyrt-house was fired on. The colored tow broke and *endeavored to escape t,(Wri woods but were pursued by an a mob, who KILLED SEVEN and w ed some 40 or 50 freedmen ! The itild3el version is that the negroes entered the town arm ed bent on murder. This story does'nt fit. It is the New Orleans massacre over—all the killed bpg, unarmed ne groes. Oov. BulloellAent a message to the Legislature red** the outrage, and advising that military aid be re quested to preserve order. The Rebel majority in the Legislature tabled the matter, no doubt deeming it all right— only a part of the regular progrmme. Nothing will settle these Rebel outlaws but the election of Gen. GRANT, That is the only road to Peace, North and South. DEMOCRATS ask the people to trust them with the administration of the National finances. They have made an attempt at economy in this direction once before. Let us see how they ma naged it. Under James K. Polk this economy resulted as follows: 1 I, tintionkl debt, July 1, 1h46 The u•tionul debt, July 1,184 V, In other words, under a Democratic administration the debt increased four fold in three years. But it is said that the expenses of the Mexican war are included in the expenses of 1847. Very well—that war closed in 1547. What was the increase of the tight under De mocratic management "in a time of profound peace?" Debt July ], 11 , 47, Debt July 1,154 V, That will do. The people want no such "economy." THE N. Y. tiournal of Commerce (Democratic) honestly acknowledges 'the victory in Maine, and gives the following sensible statement of the reason. The same causes which the Journal of Commerce indicates will continue to operate till they carry the whole country for Grant and Colfax, us the candidates of conciliation, order, and peace : "The result of the election in Maine is decidedly favorable to the Republicans. The reaction against the Radicals and their rninoms policy, which marked the elections of last full, has been checked beyond ques tion through the methods adopted by their opponents in the conduct of this campaign: Instead of conciliating the wise and good of all parties, and thus forming a strong Conservative alliance that would have swept the country, the men of extreme views and rectless conduct have been taken into counsel, and violent denunciations have been employed iu place of reason and sober argument." WALLACE, of the Democratic State Committee, has jsiAted a circular to the faithful, iu which he undertakes to cipher a "Democratic victory" out of the Maine electioti. Wallace is a "brick," but not equal to his prototype Brick Pomeroy, who with all his blackguardism has the frankness to ad mit defeat. Says Pomeroy= "The State election in Maine has been held—the smoke has lifted—the Republic ans have over twenty thousand majority.— We are defeated there, and do not like it.— We met the enemy in Maine and are theirs. They whipped us there worse than we sup posed they would or could, and it hurts." Of course it does ; it hurls badly, or Wallace would not try to doctor it up. THE Baltimoreigan of September Sth makes this very dclicalc announce inent. What could be more consider ate ? ITON. JEFFERSON DAVI3.-It is reported that this gentleman will be tendered the Presidency of Randolph Macon College, at Ashland, Virginia; so soon as he is freed from the legal embarrassment by which he is now fettered. These "fetters" will fall before the close of Johnson's term ; and DAVIS can then begin to teach Southern youth the peculiar morals by which he justi fies holding an office under one govern ment and giving all his energies to building up another antagonistic to it. •TIIE most coiruptly governed City in the country is New York, of which the Copperheads have absolute control, and have had these dozen years. The expenses are frightful, and "stealingt3" almost beyond computa tion. Yet the Tammany crowd are not satisfied. They want to plunder Uncle Sam's Treasiury ; and SEYMOUR'S election would give them the opportu nity. He would be a mere tool in the hands of New York knaves. LAST Month, the Alaska purchase was paid for ($7,200,000, in gold); and $3,104,000 of 11. fa. bonds were issued to the Pacific Railroad Company, which PomParlY pays •the interest and is to pay the principal. The Cops there upon say, "see how the Public Debt is 8" 1140 8 1 " They.think the Public are too ignorant to soe through their wretch ed attempts at deception. If the country is getting into debt now, where would it have been if Con gress had not lopped off the $80,000,000 they did, from the estimates of the Johnson Administration? ALL who wish for the stability of the Union, all whd desire the safety tot .the national finsnees,4ll who are solicit ous for the national honor, all'irrho de sire Peat*, all who long for renewed business, are for GRANT. ~ayg;r_~ .t•:::_;~ ~^;:iK^.FTn!'~L~ASF ;T:h'.:~i~-•Si "~o._;R:i—,n':_~, WHAT IS TIES TROTS AS To viz The Democratic, leaders North and 146410 :knoWing that the National Debt w as ciolß'facted in putting a Den*raticif.*belllori, and that-loyal men ,ltitd .wonaerr and children havelitvestS4 in It, don't like it In fury shape, and are doing their best to de velope u spirit of repudiation.

Buick Pomg- ROY, speaking for the Northern De mocracy backs up this policy, and pro nounces boldly for REPUDIATION. One of the favorite plans to prejudice the public sentiment, is to grossly misrep resent the extent of the national debt and the ability of the country to pay. To this end the country is flooded with lying paulphipts, and Copperhead ora tors make them texts in preaching their new gospel. Now let us look at the Fact's, us furnished by official rec ords. At the close of the War, the Un ion rested under an Immense burden of Public Debt. Has that Debt been di minished or increased Secretary McCulloch officially re petted, on the Ist of September, 1860, that the aggregate of ascertained, liti uidated Debt, over and above all the money in Treasury, was then $2,757,- 089,571. He rep' rted it on theist inst. (just three years later) at $2,535,614,313. Subtract this sum from the amount re portesl three years ago, and the reduc tion is $222,075,258. There can be no &Jule, we judge, that, beside paying all accruing interest, we have reduced the principal by that amount. But this is not all. We have just paid $7,200,000 in gold to Russia for Alaska, which adds so much to our Debt ; but we have the property to show for it. Then we have issued $35,314,000 of new bonds in aid of the Pacific Railroads now in progress.— They pay the interest on these bonds ; they are to pay the principal also, and we think will be abundantly able to do so. This is not like a War Debt; first, because we are only to pay it in case of default by the Railroads; secrondly, because, even in that case, we have a mortgage on the roads for security ; and thirdly, because, even if this should prove inadequate, the increase of our National wealth and tax-paying ability by reason of those roads •would more than compensate us for the loss. But more : We have, in these last three years, paid enormous sums for arrears and mustering-out bounties to the soldiers who put down the Rebel lion, and millious more for State claims, and deferred indebtedness of every kind. All this has reduced by so much the actual, though not the liquidated, Debt of Sept. 1, 1865. Ed ward Atkinson of Boston, in a careful ly ;prepared statement including these items, makes the total reduction of theuDebt within three years no less than $600,000,000, and gives the figures. Now, if we have been able to pay this immense sum (equal to one-fourth of the entire debt) In three years, where is the leant apology for the doctrine of repudiation, except in Rebel hate and Copperhead malignancy? And that, after all, is at the bottom of the whole thing. $18,VA1,9.16 36.1,701,0.1 71 VV4.t. , :a 4 ,62S V 4,704.643 71 CHARLES SUMNER, addressing the Republicans of Maine on Monday, naked his hearers to look at the history of the Democratic leaders. He said : "Rebels all, Rebels all. I mention those only who take an active part. A party, like a man, is known by the company it keeps. What a company! There is Forrest with the blood or Fort Pillow still dripping from his hands. Semmes, fresh from his pira cies on our commerce. Wade Hampton, the South Carolina slave master and caval ry officer of the rebellion. Beauregard, the Rebel General who telegraphed for the ex ecution of abolition prisoners. Stephens, Toombs, and Cobb, a triumvirate of Rebels, and at the head of this troop is none other than Horatio Seymour, of New York, who, without actually enlisting in the rebellion, dallied with it, and addressed its fiendish representatives in Sew York as "Friends." A party with such leaders and such a chief is the Rebel party. Such a party, so filled and permeated by treason, cannot alter any shibboleth of leyaly. Every loyal word must stick in its throat, as 'amen' stuck in the throat of 3lacheth after the murder of his royal guests." PATErcE HAMMILL, of Allegany county, Md., on Tuesday was nomina ted as the Democratic candidate for Congress in the 4th district, composed of Carroll, Frederick, Washington and Allegany counties. MAULSBY, of Frederick, and SYESTER, of Washing ton, and ROMAN of Allegheny, con tested the nomination. On the 97th ballot, Roman's name was withdrawn and Haruniill carried off the prize.— Maulsby's war record was fatal to him.

It is supposed, the wedding will take place in November . IT is stated that Gen. HANCOCK has writt en a letter saying that SEYMOUR and BLAIR have not the ghost of a chance. When the Democrats at the July Convention surrendered to the rebels, they threw away their sole chance of victory. DEUOCIULTIC papers say that they have done gloriously to increase the Democratic vote tn. Maine. But if the Republicans increase faster than the Democrats, hbw are the latter ever go ing to catch up?, GRANT fought speculators and camp followers all through the War. He saved many milltons while Secretary of War. As President, he would make the whole Administration a model of integrity and economy. SKr •Mt position during the war was a shifting tetween armed neutral ity, sullen support and insidious oppo sition. "Win= are your iletaieS ?"—Sey , . sumr., 1864. Here's Vicksburg I. Qrant, 1864.

Janos JONES, at Mobile, addressing a rebel,-tneeUng, revived the State-rights tlitiolit, on which secession was founded.— He said to the gathering : "On the issue of the contest before them depended their all. Before _the war the southern people bettered la State-rights, they fought_ and spilled their blood for State rights. Unfortunately for them, and per haps for the whole country, the result of the war was a permanent extinguishment of State rights, unless, under God's providence, the Democratic party, under the leadership of Seymour and Blair, re-eslablished the time-honored principles." Colonel SLAIBLOPI, of Missouri, agrees with this view, and says that the whole life of the rebellion is assured in the Democrat is platfaim_: "By the election of the Democratic ticket only could the noblest men who ever lived —the gallant sons of the south—gain what thug had fought for, without the sacrifice of a single principle." General LI.WTON, or Georgia, entertains • the same opinion, and thinks, upon the whole, that the copperhead platform is II little stronger and better than the secesh de claration : "Now for the first time, we have a plat form of principles, and leaders around whom we could rally. It was the noblest, best, boldest declaration of principles ever laid down in the United States, and was in unison with the feelings of the people.— There was nothing that the south want ed that was not there. The military despotism which has held us in thraldom was there set in its proper light. For the first time we have a platform we can adhere to. We haves work to do which can be ac complished. We have leaders to represent those princip les who will carry us ont or the `Slough of Despond.' Peace has its to.cto• ries as well as war. Those great prinei plesfcr which we fou,ght, and WIIICH WK FEAIIED WSHIC LOST, may yet be achieved." The pirate Sumacs is so charmed with copperhead declarations, that even his seri_ sitive honor will admit a return to loyalty under its operation : "I have given my allegiance to the old flag, provided we can restore the old flag again to be the representative of the principles of the Constitution, which we will be able to effect by the election of Seymour and Blair." • This much for individuals. Larger space is demanded for the press, as utterances are more frequent and more carefully studied. The Vicksburg Times bases the claims of Blair on the Brodhead letter, that has been so explained and debated at the north, say. Ing : "Objection is made down this way to the indorsement of the Blair letter by a few timid people, on the score of prudence, and yet it was this Identical letter of Frank Blair to his triend, Colonel Brodhead, that secured the Missouri hero the nomination for Vice President. We want just such ammunition as Frank Blair uses." The St. Louis Timer tells Blair that he must asisst the rebels directly : "If Mr. Built becomes President, and swears to obey the Constitution, and fails to overthrow the oligarchy established by Brownlow in Tennessee, Blair would be perjured. There is but one way to restore the government and the Constitution, and tfuit is for the President elect to declare the reconstruction acts null and void, compel the army to undo its usurpations at the south, disperse the carpet-bag State gov ernments, allow the white people to reorg nize their own governments, and elect Sena tors and Representatives." The Mississippi Mercury goes just a lit tle further, and shows what is wanted there : "With the skull and cross-bones of the `lost cause' before us, we will swear that this is a- white man's government. We must make the negro understand we are the men we were when we held him in ab ject bondage, and make him feel that when forbearance ceases to be a virtue, he has aroused a power that will control him or destroy him." The Richmond Enquirer shows how the want will be satisfied : "The white men-of the southern States have seen the day when they could use the bullet, and if God in His anger permit the necessity to arise they will use it again." DyeING the years of war, in spite of the The St. Joseph (Mo.)

We believe, from the depths of public debt, amounting to at least s:,to,coo. our understanding, that these acts of Con- WO per annum, would have been provided gressional misdoing are all, one like the for. other, perfectly void." The Georgia Democratic Convention sees that the Democratic platform removes all restraints upon rebel conduct. It says: "There might once have been a necessity for the rebels of Georgia to submit to the military authorities, but there is none now. The Democratic chivalry of the north arc marching to our rescue. And the Mobile Register thinks that the Democratic idea favors further war "We know there are many Democrats at the north, including some distinguished soldiers, who believe that the political at mosphere, poisoned by the long reign of Radical depotism, will not be so purifle that liberty may flourish on it, until a just chastisement is inflicted upon the daring men who have conspired against the Tiber• ties of the nation. In other words, that the counter-revolution will not be com plete without more blood-letting." The Ultra Ku Klux, of Texas, believes that a war of races, that is, an indiscrimi nate killing of negroes by whites, will come unless the poor whites are driven away.— Most of these are of northern descent there: "How shall we obviate a war of races ? There is no way under the broad canopy of heaven, without it is driving from our midst these low, mean white men. With them out of the country, the negroes and white people could get along peaceably and quietly ; but if they are allowed to remain in our midst, just so sure we are bound to have a war of races, and when there is one drop of blood spilt, we predict that it will flow as freely as does the Mbiaisisppi." Hear what the Mobile Tribune says : "The great Democratic party will rise in its might and majesty, and pulverize and purge the Congress, just as Cromwell purged the long Parliament. The signs of the times are pregnant with resistance to Radi cal tyranny, and the dagger of Brutus may aid in accomplishing our redemption from Radical rule, ruin and usurpation." A VERY well informed correspon dent from_New England writes to us that the New England States will give Grant over 150.000 majority, as follows : Maine 30.000 New Hampshire, 5.000 Vermont, 30.000 Massachusetts, 80.000 Connecticut, 3.0® Rhode Island, 5.000 Total, These figures will do EUROPEAN ad vices announce a forin idable insurrection id Spain.

AN old resident of:New Orleans who was asked if he saw the Democratic recession there the other crening, replied : "I saw a long procession of Gen. Grant's paroled prisoners—is that what you refer to ?" ANDREW JOIE:SOS is President of the 'United States, and Hugh McCulloch is his Secretary of the Treasury. Now we assert that there is no reason in Democrats com plaining of a mismanagement of the tinances of the country. THE first or a series of "National Games" was played in Vermont on the Ist, between the "first nines" of the Grant and Colfax and Seymour and Blair Clubs. Throughout the game the Seymouts "muffled" badly, owing to too stiff a breeze from the North. The next game was played in Maine, with the same result. TREY ARE cost ING, Mr. Seymour, a host of boys in blue ; from the green mountains of Vermont, their shouts ring out again ; and twenty thousand echoes ring out the shouts of Maine; to shield the stany flag they love, from traitors' hands anew; they are coming, Mr. Seymour, tht loyal boys in blue. GIVING IT UP.—The New York .I.Scrald, which has been trying to make itself believe that there is some chance for Seymour and Blair, throws up the sponge since the Maine election. "All the facts before us, and all the signs of the times," it says, "in dicate an overwhelming triumph for Grant and Colfax." WHEN the Republican party came into power in ISGI, they found a rebellion on their hands which the Democratic party had been thirty years threatening and organiz ing. To save the Government against the attack of these iniquitous men cost a quar ter of a million lives and $3,000,000,000. With this blood and the debt charged to them, they now ask to be trusted with pow er. What freeman does not revolt at the thought? TAE Cleveland Herald thus replies to a carping copperhead orator, who triumphant ly asked why the revenue was not sufficient to diminish the public debt ; why it was not collected and properly appropriated : "The fact that seven-eighths of the revenue causes now pending in the United States Courts of northern Ohio are Democrats on trial for swindling the government may partly answer the question." The further facts that Andrew Johnson and his off- I cials, in many parts of the country, have been in league with the whisky ring to enrich themselves and create an im mense Democratic corruption fund, will answer pretty much the whole of it. 153.000 A CITIZEN of Galena, formerly of Wash ington county' in this State, writes to a former neighbor as follows :—"You may assure the good people of old Washington county that General Grant's habits in re spect to temperance, as in everything else, are beyond reproach. He is a remarkably pure man. He never utters a profane word. He is a constant and habitual attendant at church. Aside from his eminent services to the nation, ke is justly entitled to the suffrages of the good, the virtuous and the Christain portion of our people for the stern integrity, the rare modesty and the mani fold virtues of his private life."

Tilt: RAILROAD WONDER. Ti;. building of the Union Pacific Rail road ii the wonder of the age. It makes all formor feats of railroad construction tame s and insignificant by comparison. It rushes over space almost as if one of its own loco motives had the end of the track in tow and was simply drawing it out over plains and mountains from some abundant reserve In the rear. hundred mile stages of progress are of no more moment than ten mile sec tions on ordinary roads. The rails are laid on the run. The man who once gets ahead of the track-layers must keep "moving on' as incessan!ly as Poor Joe, or run the risk of being one of the sleepers of the road and have the rails laid over Lim before he fairly notes the speed of the sweeping industrial ware. In April last the workmen began at the 540th tulle, where they had stopped when winter refused permission to go on. Six hundred miles were soon complete; then a party of editors from Cape Cod, New York, and Delawsre bays, went out and saw the laying of the 700th mile in July and . now the September sun is shining upon the workmen who have passed the 800th mile post, and who will get within almost hailing distance of Brigham and his Saints by Christmas. Such marvelous speed is attain ed only by skillful organization, rigid disci pline, and watchful supervision over the in dustrial army. Twenty thousand men are at work, each with his own allotted work to be done at the precise moment, and the grand result is seen in the wonderful conti nental railroad, which is to be the longest, the highest, and the most important in the world. The financial success of the road-is equal ly notable. Although unfinished, end la boring under many disadvantages, its earn ings for the past. year exceeded four mil lions, its net profits being largely in excess of tip. inkiest upon its First Mortgage Bonds, which have been sold to the amount of over eighteen millions.
