The Republicans of the Itolbugh of
Gettysburg will' meet at the "Eagle
Hotel," TO-MORROW (Saturday)
EVENING, at 71 o'clock, to nominate
a Borough Ticket, and make arrange-
I:ciente for the approaching Election.
By order of the
EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
ROBERT G. RAB.PES, the senior edi
tor of the "STAR a ScavriNka..," and
Republican nominee for Associate
• Judge, is so well known that no en
dorsement is needed at our hands. For
half a century he has stood prominent
-1y beibre the, people of the county- as
sole editor of the "Anew; SENTINEL,"
always true to , the principles of his
party, a high-toned 'gentleman, With a
reputation for integrity that no man
dare to impugn. Called to the office
of Associate Judge by appointment of
Gov. GEAPY, to fill the vacancy con
sequent on the resignation of Judge
Ronizoff, he has fairly and impartially
discharged the duties during his brief
term, and the people of the County
would honor themselves, while requit
ing long and meritorious public service
by continuing him on the bench.
THE offiw of County Cdmmissioner
Is an imOrtant one, having largely to
do with the County finances. For
some reason or other, the "ring"
which manages that office, determined
that no independent Democrat should
get an inside view of the concern.
Jolt); FELTY was slaughtered for this
reason. The tax-payers of theeonnty,
Republicans and Democrats, have an
interest in the matter, and if they
would consult their interest and rebuke
the "ring," they will have an oppor
tunity to do so on Tuesday next, by
voting for t3altuxi, OvxmorAccrs, of
Reading, for County Commissioner.—
A good business man, honest and up
right, a better officer could not be well
scared up.
ADAM C. iifIIIMELMAN, • our' candi
date for Director of the Poor, comes of
good stock. The Musselman family
have been long noted for good business
qualifications and integrity. ADAM
C. does honor to the fartilly. He is
Moreover a young man of inttrinsic
personal merits--clever, honest, intel
ligent, and courteous. As Director, he
would see to it that all unnecessary ex
travagance in the management of the
Poor House affairs be prevented, and
the public good subserved. He will
make a capital Director.
TEE office of Sheriff is one in which
all classes of citizens are deeply inter
ested. The administration of the office
Involves at best unpleasant relations,
and it is all important that It be filled
by a man of integrity, kind nature,
courteous manner, and strict integrity.
Such a man is SAMUEL WOLF, of Ox
ford township. He is no pi/ay hack—
does-not seek the office, and is a candi
date simply because leading men of all
parties demanded it. He will poll a
heavy vote wherever known.
VOTE for EDEN NORRIS, of Straban
township, for Clerk of the Courts, if
you want an honest, upright, sober,
faithful officer. Some years ago he
discharged the duties of the office with
marked fidelity and acceptance, and is
therefore thoroughly familiar there.—
The County never had abetter officer,
and if the people consult their interests
they will see to it that he is elected on
Tuesday next.
JACOB M. BUSHEY, of Franklin
township, is admirably qualified for
the duties of Register and Recorder.+—
An industrious, respected citizen, he
will poll a heavy vote wherever known.
Like all the other candidates on the
Republican ticket, he did not seek the
office, but was nominated by reason of
his acknowledged fitness and personal
worth. Vote for BUSHEY for Register
and Recorder.
SAMUEL HERBST is one of the best
known citizens of the county—raised a
practical Farmer, and as President of
the Agricultural Society has largely
'identified himself with the Farming
interests of the County. Possessing an
enviable reputation for integrity, he
will make a capital County Treasurer,
a clever and efficient officer. Vote for
him!
A Couirry Auditor should be a man
of business capacity, a good amount
ant, and resolutely . bonest. Such a
man is Wm.-C.- SOOSPP, of Free
dam, who ought to be elected on tie*)
some of merit slope. He is a young
man of otoeillent promise, and would
honor the *Moe. •
Dn. AGILDEOIIB NOEL, of Mobn4•

and, poinesses 'in a high

We to-day make our final appeal to
the Republicans of the county. We
hope the work of organization in the
townships has been completed ere
this. If not, we beg our friends to do
so at once. Two days remain, (Satur
day and Monday,) in which much good
may yet be done. In-4116-State--4,he

WHILE the Copperhead press is bit
terly maligning Gov. GEARY, the re-
ligious sentiment of the State comes to
his defence. The "American Preaby.
ter - ian,' , of Philadelphia, a religious
paper edited by Rev. Dr. MEAns, In
the course of a well timed editorial on
the duties of Christian men, pays the
following merited compliment to Gov.
GEARY :
"Gov. Geary is a consistent, humble
Christian, who: e:cps a conscience although
he is poor; the hills of Gettysburg are
monuments of his devotion, skill, and glo
rious success as a soldier of his country ;
his administration has witnessed a decline
of millions in the State debt, and 'removal
of onerous State taxes. l!ennsylvania will
honor herself and add lustre to tier political
annals by prolonging his term of office."
Stand at the Polls
Let the best and most 'prominent
Republicans at every eleotiol district
stand at the polls, froth morning until
night, on election day. There has
been too much neglect of this import
ant Matter. The presenCe of well
known citizens at the voting places is
a source of power that it always felt.
Wo hope to see a new' order of affairs
at the coming election. Good citizens
Should feel bound, at least, to give the
countenance of their presence to those
who labor for the success of the princi
pies of the party. Let such be the first
at the polls next Tuesday, and the last
to leave. '
IN the "History of 141erman's march
to the Sea," written by an impartial
historian, we find the following pars
graph, which, in the light of Demo.
cratic slanders, is pertinent to the
time:
"There are men who are soldiers by in
spiration. Logan is one; Geary, too, was
a civilian general,' and won tame and repu
tation upon field after field—upon the
bloody crest of Lookout Mountain, upon
the rugged cliffd of Mill Creek—through
every battle ihat many a trained West
Point veteran should feel proud of. Or
civilian soldiers he and Logan stand amid
the foremost."
GO TO WORK.
LET EVERY REPUBLICAN GO TO
WORK, as if the election of Gov.
Geary depended upon his own individ
ual exertions. A failure to do our duty
pow may cause a lass which can never
be recovered. Then the labors and
sacrifices of the Republican party, and
the blood shedand the lives lost by our
gallant soldiers to crush out that dam
nable rebellion, will have been in vain,
It will be the act of an incendiary who
destroys lawn boar the work of a life
time.
Pr is estimated that three-fourths of
the taxes in this State are now raised
from corporations; so that farmers, and
those engaged in other occupations,
pay correspondingly less. This man
agement, which is so, advantageous to
small farmers and poor men generaliy,
is the result of Republican manage
ment; 'But if Ass Packer, itth his
mammoth railroad Interests, should be I
elected Governor, how long should this
state of things last?
ON'T BE BACKWARD
Have your Committee men at the
polls and watch every vote that is
cast. Our enemy will poke in a fraud
ulent vote whenever they have a
Mande. Watch them Our cause de
mands it! And the saciednehs of the
ballokbox should encourage us to watch

ONE VOTE!
We desire to urge upon every man In
Adams the importance of polling
every vote. No man, If he desires to
do his duty trthis-souratey, should fall
to be at the polls on the 12th of Octo
ber. One Vote may decide the contest
on some Important candidate. Re
member and be at the polls, and see
also that your neighbor Is there.
I The Compiler seems to, be terribly
alarmed at the inroads some of the
Republican candidates are making in
the Democratic ranks, and calls partic
ularly on the faithful to beware espec
ially of Johil Wolford, Samuel Wolf,
Samuel Herbst, Jacob „Bushey, Eden
Norils, sad Samuel Overholtzer—all
of whom are described as "sheep in
wolf's clothing," "travelling meudi
cants," and what not. The "ring,"
know that every one of these gentle
men is incomparably the superior of
`his opponent on the ticket set up by
this "ring," and that Democrats all
over the county intend to say so on
Tuesday next by their ballota. - That
is what's the matter.
THERE is much feeling all over the
State in regard to the corrupt agencies.
which for some years have been dis
gracing the State Legislature. Iu
inost of the counties (Democratic and
Republican) membera whose record
last winter was not beyond suspicion,
have been shelved; and new candidates
for Assembly have been put up. If
the people of Adams county want a
Representative at Harrisburg, with a
character for stern integrity beyond
the shado'w of suspicion—one who will
aid in cleansing the Augean stables—
one who will faithfully attend to Leg
islative duties—vote for Col. JOHN
WOLFORD, Of Latin:tore township.
Vote Early.
Go to the polls as soon as they are
open and vote! After that attend to
others ! Give one Whole day to your
Country—from morning till night.
Film& all parts of the county we
hear that the "ring" is disbursing
money,- with unwonted liberality, in
its desperate efforts to elect its pet can
didates. It is evident that the "twenty
million" candidate has been despen
sing his favors in these parts. Where
threats avail not to whip in refractory
Democrats, tempting baits in the shape
of green-backs are thrown out. In
other words the "rill" purpose to buy
the election of its candidates, if enough ,
bf corrupt material can be foulid to ac
cept the bribes. High-minded men
will spurn alike threat anti bribe.
THE Compiler begs the Democracy
to vote for Dill, McCurdy, Martin,
Kiunk, Swope, Neidich, Wolf, and the
balance of the "ring" candidates, be
cause they are all sound on the "nig
ger." Downin Virginia, Tennessee,
and Misaippi, and the South generally,
the Cbmpiler's political allies are also
sound on the "nigger," but only vice
versa. Down there they run Demo
cratic "niggers," for office, and elect
them ! No wonder Nasby thinks Dem
ocratic politics are a good deal mixed.
LET every Republican voter be on
bis guard against slanders of our tan
. idates between this and election. The
opposition are desperate, and • will re
sort to deception and falsehood to carry
outthe_ day. Look for."Roorbacks."

WHILST the Democrats of Penney/.
tania are appealing to prejudice and
paesion to prevent the adoption of the
Fifteenth Amendment, their friends
of the South, not forgetful of the re ,
suite of the war, occupy quite a differ
ent • position. The Memphis Arai.
anche a paper that was ever true to
secession, rebellion and the Democra t
ic party, speaks as follows on this ques
tion :
"For God's sake, and the sake of deo3n
ey, let the poor-nagro alone, for he Is a cit
izen with all the rights of a freeman, 'will
never be shorn of them, and is irrevocillY
free. Let our-friends cease their nonsense
talking against Negro suffrage. It is a -
tied point and we can't alter it.
IT is not denied that Ass Psucuu
made a technical sgift of his residence
from Mauch chunk to a Philadelphia
hotel, in 1867, to evade the payment of
his taxes. He seems to have succeed
ed almost perfectly, 11 Jr although he is
reported to be worth $ 20,000,000, James
N. Berns, 'United St ates Assessor, has
given his official oeedilcate to the effect
that Ass Pscat ER'S return for internal
revenue taxes Is orte gold watch and
some silver-plate, the tax on which
amounted to only $8.95.
Pooa MEN OF PENNSYLVANIA. !

to September, d uring the strike, and
when coal was scarce and dear, Asa
Packer's railroa , I raised the price of
transportation fifty-seven cents per
ton! !!
THE "ring" is evidently frightened.
The Compiler warns against "trading"
and "cutting," and threatens dire
things if any De; nocrat dares to pitch
overboard any c me of the pet candi
dates of the ring.. The trouble is there
are so many of these pet candidates
in danger; tha t. the "ring" don't
know where to close up the breach,
and it will keep the whippers-in busy
to get all around.
Is Misslssipp i the Democracy are
supporting a Ne; go for Seezetary. In
Pennsylvania ti le Democracy havn't
yet got to that pi Ant, and the Compiler
continues its wet !kly twaddle about the
"nigger." Som e people may be green
enough to think this means something
else than playlu ;on the prejudices of
its readers, and mistake it for princi
ple. -
Wt.: do not sug :pose that the Compi
ler expects to he :mbug any Republican
by its persists* t twaddle about the
"nigger." All t his clap-trap is simply
intended by the "ring" to hold Demo
crats up to the n iek--rodder or no fod

personale of the Dettiocrittic party.

got clear of paying his Poor tax in Car
bon county, amounting, incltiding county,
to 11115,767 17. -
Row can honest men support Packer,
who refixes to bear his share of the burdens
of tuition, and by the 'dodge' of changing
his residence manages to cheat the borough
of Mauch Chunk and the county of Carbon
out of their just dues?
THE DIFFEHENCE
Packer is a millionaire, and ai adven
turer from Connecticut. He has amused a
large fortune in Pennsylvania, a portion
of which he itas invested in New York.
When the war of the rebellion broke out,
be tied to Europe for safety, leaving others
to take care of his property, and the inter
ests of the State and country.
Geary is a poor man, having devoted his
life to the benefit of the Commonwealth
and the nation rather than to his own per
sonal interest. When the war of the re
bellion broke out he offered his services as
a soldier to the State and country, and lived
in the camp and field till treason was crush
ed, though he had no wide _9states of his
own to protect.
When men were needed to"defeat the re
bellion Packer packrxi off to Europe with
his sons, lest they might be conscripted,
and he be compelled to pay a portion of his
millions to procure them substitutes.
When men were needed to defeat the re
bellion, Geary gave himself and his two
eons to the Union army, in which they
fought bravely In defence of the nation.
When the war was raging Packer and
his sons were enjoying a jolly good time in
Europe, luxuriating to their heart's con
tent, and exalting in their safety from dan
ger.
When the war raged fiercest Geary was
"above the cloud," driving the enemy from
Lookout Mountain, his eldest son lying a
corpse with a rebel ballet through his head,
and his youngest boy wounded and sadly
lamenting the death of the brother whom
he so dearly loved.
And yet this we Packer, an adventurer
in the State that he deserted in the hour of
its danger, has the effrontery to ask the peo
ple of Pennsylvania to ignore the services
of Geary, sod give hint their votes.

be sifted and exposed. Now Dr. Dill was
the representative of the people of the
whole county and not a party ; therefore, if
he saw fit to prove recreant to the trust and
confidence reposed In him as •representa
tive; he most not complain at the earnest
condemnation of an outraged constituency,
as the responsibility rests with himself.
, Many reasons are given in the attempt to
ex plain why he did not vote ; bat they all
twee exceedingly sophistical. The people
of Adams county are not going to believe
that it was necessary for him to desert his
seat just on the very eve of a very import
ant question, to attend a small sale only 13
miles from Harrisburg, 24 hours previous
to the sale. He could have had ample time
to have remained for the—session, and still
attend the sae referred to; but this would
not suit his purpose. The article in the
Compiler states that be did not know such
a vote would be taken. This certainly dis
plays much ignorance of Legislative busi
ness on the part of Dr. Dill, as we find on
page 376 of the Legislative record, that be
fore the adjournment at one o'clock, the
Speaker was authorized to refer to the ap
propriate committee all the bills upon his
table. The appropriation bill being , nxitt
on the calendar necessarily would be the
next In order taken up. The article adds
that be could not have his vote recorded
after his return, as it was tried by others
and refused ; therefore there was no use in
his trying. Such is net the fact, as any
one, who cocld show that he did not
absent himself for thepurpose of avoid
ing a vote, could have his name recorded
for or against it. On page 382 we find that
Mr. Eachbach asked the right to record
vote against it, saying that he was Nor
razassrr when the vote was taken. This
was objected to. But the Speaker decided
that any member could put his reasons for
his vote on the journaL Therefore Mr.
Eschbach was granted permission. Why
did not Dr. Dill ask the same right, if he
could account satisfactorily for his absence ?
This he did not do, and be cannot now
complain t hat his constituents hold him to
the record. GER MANY.

To these three medicine. Dr. J. H. Schenck, of
Philadelphia, owes hie unrivalled encomia the treat

Syrup ripens the morbid matter in the lunge, nature

To do this, the Seaweed Tonic and Mandrake Pills

so that the Palm:onto Syrup and the rood will make

Schenck 's Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, re
moving all obstructions, relax the ducts of the gall
bladder, the bile starts freely, and the liver Is soon
relieved; the stools will show what the Pills can do;
nothing bus ever been Invented except calomel ft
deadly poison which is very dangerous to use unless
with great care), that will unlock the gall•bladdet
and start the secretions of the liver like Schenck',
Mandrake Pills.
Liver Complaint Is one of the mad promlu

Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant and
alterative. and the alkali in the Seaweed, widebekbls
preparation is made o 4 assists the stomach to throw
out the gastric Juice to dissolve the food with the
Pnlmonic Syrup, and it is made into good blood with

The great reason why physicians do not curs eon
