defeating Grant and the Union party.
Confederate money may ho as good as
our greenbacks if the Rebels aro not

ri&'Wo are warned by the Demo
cratic party itself, that its triumph
means war; that it in tends that Blair
and Seymour shall establish the prin
ciples of the Confederacy. That warn
ing it would be criminal folly to de
spise. It is Grant who repreeents in
this contest the great cause which he
represented in the war, and only by
his election can peace and order be pre
served and permanently established.
The debt of Pennsylvania is now
$33,641,637 48. In 1860 it was $37,-
696,847 50. These figures are facts
which Democrats, should contemplate
when they talk about Pennsylvania
extravagance. Besides this reduction
of over $4,000,000, the taxes have been
reduced at least twenty-fivo per cent.,
while that on real estate has been on•
tirely remcrtred. Remember Hartranft
and Campbell in October next for these
blessings.
.Wallace expects his Democratic
friends to carry the• State, not by re
maining idle, but by working all the
time. Republicans will remember
this, and also work to prevent a loss of
a single vote. While we may have
hundreds to spare on the county offi
ce; a very few votes may elect our
members to the Legislature and State
ticket. Poll every vote. The Demo
crats are working quietly and often
while Republicans are enjoying a
sound sleep.

I=
The Democratic Rebellion,
The sucees:3ive steps, by which the
Democratic programme for another
civil war is to bo executed, wore sig
nificantly foreshadowed by Blair when
in his Broadhead letter, he declared
that the existing Southern State gov
ernments can only be overthrown by
the authority of the Executive and
the army at his back. Ilow this is to
be accomplished is more minutely set
forth in the annexed extract, from
liarper's;TVedly, which shows precise
ly the inevitable results of the election
of the Democratic candidates :
"How a Democratic suceoss at the
election would occasion a civil war is
easily seen. General Blair does not
hesitate to avow it. Congress must be
wholly disregarded. Tho Supreme
Court must not be invoked. The Pre
sident must usurp all power of govern
ment and act alone. Ho must be a
Climax. 'Because,' says General Blair in
his letter "if the President elect by the
Democracy enforces, or permits oth•
ers to enforce, these Reconstruction
acts, the radicals, by the accession of
twenty spurious senators and fifty rep
resentatives, will control both branch
es of Congress, and his administration
will bo as powerless as the present ono
of Mr. Johnson.' Force is, therefore,
the only alternative.
"If Mr. Seymour be elected after
this loud and reiterated declaration by
his party that his election will mean
forcible overthrow of the present State
governments in the Southern States,
the result is evident, He' would offi
cially declare those governments void.
Ho would then be impeached and pro
bably convicted; but the Democratic
party, victorious at the polls, with the
whole rebel force jubilant and ready,
would dispute the sentence and rise
against its execution. Meanwhile in
the'Southern States the now Democra
tic State organizations summoned
by tho President, would bo formed.
They would dispute the State author
ity with the present incumbents. The
President would recognize the new
claimants and order the army to their
support, and to 'trample in the dust'
the others. They in turn would ap
peal to Congress, already engaged in
conilict with the President. Mean
while the Representatives and Senators
from the now State organizations
would arrive in Washington, and in
concert with the other Democratic
members would be recognized as Con
gress by the President. But, indeed,
long before this event, civil war would
bo ravaging the country, and Wade
Hampton, and Robert Toombs, and
Howell obb, and the old rebel chiefs
who say with Albert Pike, 'We do not
love and will not pretend to love that
Union, though we have agreed to obey
the laws of the conqueror,' would glad
ly behold in a desolating war and a
ruined republic the fullness of their
revenge."
Who Made tho Platform ?
Not Hampton alone, although ac
cording to his own showing, ho 'ob
tained all ho asked in the Convention."
He had fifteen able assistants to help
him, in tho work of securing "all they
fought for." They were sixteen in all,
those rebel Generals who made the
platform, not to mention eight or nine
rebel Colonels and a sprinkling of Ma
jors and Captains. Glance at the list.
Hampton, who like Beauregard, wan
ted to shoot Union prisoners, and who
slunk away sullenly and refused to
give his parole; Buckner who journey
ed back and forth to •Washington, in
search of a position in the Union ar
my two weeks before he declared for
rebellion ; Preston who gave up his
mission to the Spanish Court, in order
that ho might fan the flames of rebel
lion, and signalized himself by fitting
out piratical vessels; Holtzelow, who
boasted that ho took part in eve
ry western battle from Shiloh to the
hitter end; Forrest, the hero of Fort
Pillow; Bonham, of South Carolina;
Gordon, of Georgia; Hoke, Ransom
and Cox, of South Carolina, bitter op
ponents to an exchange of prisonors;
Ould, the evil genius of Andersonville,
Salisbury and Belle Isle; Kershaw, of
South Carolina, who shot down with
his own hand Union prisoners, and
strove to rival Forrest; these and a
host of others, equally distinguished
for their atrocities, assisted at the
birth of the Tammany platform, upon
which they have signified their inten
tion to risk another trial, gaining'cve
rything if they win, and losing noth
ing if they

m.Probably the truth as to Grant,
and the duty of conscientious men in
the present political contest, has not
been better put than by Henry Ward
Beecher in a recent letter, in which he
wrote as follows:
I regard Grant as an upright, hon
est man, of good administrative skill—
the very man to be President in times
which require steadiness, clear sense,
kindness and tried patriotism. I not
only believe that he will be President,
but that his civil administration will
be as remarkable as his military ca
reer. Since all the men who sought
to destroy this Government aro rally
ing around Seymour, it is fit that all
the mon who stood up for the Union
should gather about Grant. It is an
honor that will not happen twice in a
man's lifetime to have a chance to vote
for such a man as Grant. No young
man can well afford to throw away
his chance. Even if done, it ought to
be in favor of some better man than he
who, through all the years from 1860
to HO, studied how to help Southern
treason without •incurring the risks
and pains of overt and courageous trea
sonable acts.

Somo Hard Hits,
Don. Isaac N. Morris of Quincy,
an old lino Domoorat, who has boon
compelled to abandon that party on
neeount of rovolutionary tendency,
has written a letter to Frank:
from which we make the following ex
tracts:
The first inquiry which naturally
arises-is: \Vhy wan the nomination of
the Now York Convention conferred
upon you Why wore all the Demo
crats of the West passed by that you
might be selected? Not certainly be
cause ofyour Democracy. It' you ever
were a Democrat you were the worst
acting one I ever saw. But you new
er were a Demur:it, and have spent
your whole life in abubing the Demo
cratic party. You do not now claim
to be a Democrat—only an opponent
of the "radicals," the reason for which
will appear in tho sequel.
If the opponents of the Democratic
party have always been wrong, as
you now allege, and the Demoeratio
party has always been right, why bavo
you always acted ou the wrong side ?
\Vhy has your whole life been spent
in denouncing the Democratic party?
Why did you and the "Blair family"
enter the Van Buran movement of '4B,
and assist in defeating Gen. Cass, the
regular nominee of that party? Why
did you, in your speech at Lafayette,
Indiana, in 1860, denounce Democrats
as the "most miserable party that ex
isted," uud Douglas as the "most per
nicious demagogue in the United
States ?" Why did you do the same
thing in this city, and every other
place,where you spoke ? Why did you
recommend "Helper's Impending Cri
sis," a work which was generally con
demned in the . .North, and which
spread terrer and consternation in the
South? Why were you so long and ap
parently so earnestly engaged in over
throwing the slave power of the coun
try and liberating the negro ? If what
you now say of Ins barbarism is true,
your efforts heretofore in his behalf
aro frauds and lies. Your purpose,
General, is too plain to deceive any
, ono. You desire to re-establish the
slave power of the country, and to
lay the North at its feet. If this can
be done peaceably, which you say you
do not believe, well. If it requires a
revolution to effect it, you say lot the
revolution come. When it does come,
' you will be the Robespiere of it. Alas
for your ambition, it has o'erleaped

THE SOLDIERS FOR, GRANT.-A call
for a meeting in Pittsburg in support
of Grant, was signed by Democratic
and Republican soldiers, Wo quote
the following patriotic words in the
call :
"A true Union soldier can never be
come a mere party man. Realizing
this, the undersigned addresses this
call to their fellow-soldiers, not in be
half of a political party or its nomi
nees, but in behalf of the peace and
prosperity of our nation, which are
again threatened. Had the Democra
tic party spurned the dictation of
Wade Hampton and his co-traitors,
and offered us a loyal, honest, Union
platform, with Hancock or some other
candidate having a good war record,
some of the undersigned would not have
joined in issuing this call. But with
such a platform and ticket, champion
ed by Wade Hampton, Forrest, Cobb,
Semmes, Wise, Toombs, and other
like traitors, we cannot hesitate as to
our course. To say that the threats
of these known enemies of the Union
mean nothing, is worse than folly;
they proved themselves terribly in
earnest before, and we have every reas
on to believe they aro equally so new.
Regarding this contest as a renewal of
that wo helped to decide in the field,
we have Once more laid aside all par
ty feeling, and have re-enlisted under
the noble soldier who led us to victory
after others had. failed. Gen. Grant
is not and cannot become a party, man.
Ho is a true, earnest, faithful friend to
the Tho -- Republican party
oannot claim him; though the nomi
nee of that party, ho is, in fact, the
candidate of the true Union men of
the nation, just as Horatio Seymour is
the candidate of the Southern traitors.

Grant and the Cotton. Traders.
Some of the Democratic papers re
cently accused General Grant of hav
ing in 1362, at' the instance and for
the profit of his father, given to a Cin
cinnati firm, Mack & Brothers, a spe
cial privilege to trade in cotton. But
lir. Henry Units, in a recent lawsuit
stated under oath that General Grant
refused his firm this special privilege,
and that Grant used these words :
"I am always pleased, sir, to'rondor
any proper assistance in my power to
my - friends; but I am a General of the
army of tho United States Govern
ment, and I cannot discriminate be
tween its citizens. I do not know
why my father should write asking
such a favor. It can have no influence
with me. Tim request is improper, as
it would give one advantage over an
other, and would lead to that demor
alization which it is my endeavor to
prevent. Tho attention of the mili
tary cannot be diverted from the work
in band, viz : saving the country. You
can take out a permit and trade along
the river, as others are doing, and I
shall be pleased to hear of your sue•
cess."
That, we hope, will put an and to
this slander, which, however, has had
but a poor run, for it was difficult to
persuade the pooplo that Graut was
guilty of corruption. His whole re
cord in the war is that of an honest,
patriotic and unselfish soldier.

From tho Cincinnati Gazette
The Democratic candidate for the
Vice-Presidency says General Grant is
ono of the ablest men this country over
produced. The most popular Presi
dential candidate of the Democrats,
George H. Pendleton, says: "I would
not, if I could, pluck one leaf from the
laurels of General Grant. Whatever
may bo his capacity as a soldier, he
has stood the test of success, and, so
far as I have known, ho has borne
himself with moderation and magna
nimity in his high office." The most
conspicuous and odious representative
of the Peace Democracy, Mr. Vallan
digham, says he would not utter ono
syllable against the purity or capacity
of General Grant.
Throughout tho Democratic party
there in an honorable unanimity •on
this subject. Only ono of their loading
journals disturbs their harmony. The
Now York World seems to imagine
that the campaign 'can be won by
slandering or ridiculing tho candidates.
Ite standard name for the amiable
Speaker of the House is Mr. Smiler
Colfax. It rings the daily changes on
the fact that General Grant's baptism
al name was Hiram - Ulysses. It sneers
at his capacity, and devotes column
after column to elaborate criticisms of
what it calls his military blunders.—
We have not the remotest disposition
to interfere with this indulgence. In
fact, we hope to see it continued. But
for those who care to see how circum
stances alter cases with able journals
that are not troubled with any such
awkward accessories as convictions,
we quote the World's opinion of Gen.
Grant before lie was nominated for
tho Presidency by the Republicans.—
In its issue of the 11th of April, 1865,
it said :
"General Grant's last brilliant campaign
sets the final seal upon his reputation. It
stamps hint as the superior of his able antag
onist, as well as of all the commanders who
have served with or under him in the great
campaigns of last year.
"General Grant's history should teach us
to discriminate bettor than we Americans are
apt to do, between glitter and solid worth.—
Our proneness to run after demagogues and
smatters may find a wholesome corrective
in the study of such a character as his. The
qualities by which great things aro accom
plished are hero seen to have no necessary
connection with showy and superficial ea
complishments. When the mass of men look
upon such a character, they may learn a tru
er respect for themselves and each other ; they
aro taught by it that high qualities and great
abilities are consistent with the simplicity of
taste, contempt for Parade and plainness
of manners with which direct and earnest
men have a strong natural sympathy. Ulys
ses Grant, the tanner, Ulysses Grant, the un
successful applicant for the post of City Sur
veyor of St. Louis, Ulysses Grant, the driver
into that city of his two horse team with a
load of wood to sell, had within him every
manly quality which will cause the name of
Lieutenant General Grant to live forever in
history. Ills career is a lesson in practical
detnecracy ; it is a quiet satire en the dandy
ism, the puppyism and the shallow affectation
of our fashionable exquisites, as well as upon
the swagger of our plausible, glib-tongued
demagogues."
It is barely possible that tho World
did not mean to refer to Horatio Soy
moor or General Frank P. Blair in its
sneers at tho "swagger of our plausible
glib-tongued demagogues," as con
trasted with the quiet lesson in practi
cal democracy taught by Gen. Grant's
career. But it is not possible for any
one to read tho article now without
perceiving the admirable application,
Seymour and "These Bonds."
Horatio Seymour delivered a speech
on financial questions before the Dem
ocratic State Convention, at Albany,
in January last. Talking of the pub
lic debt and taxation, he said :
"It is a mistake to suppose that the
bonds are mostly held by capitalists.—
Large sums belonging to children and
widows under the order of the courts,
or tho action of trustees, have been in
vested in Government bonds. The vast
amounts held by Life and Fire insur
ance Companies and savings banks,
are, in fact, hold in trust for, and are
the reliance of the great body of active
business and laboring men or women,
or of widows and orphans. The Sav
ings banks of this State, are the depos
itaries of the poor, or of persons of
limited means, hold about $60,000,000
of Government bonds. The whole
amount held in the State of New York,
in the various formsaff trust, will not
fall below $200,000,000. If we look
into other States wo shall see that on
ly a small share of these bonds are
hold by men known as capitalists.—
But they belong in fact, if not in form,
to the business, the active and labor
ing members of society. The destruc
tion of these securities would make a
wide spread ruin and distress which
would reach into every workshop and
every home however humble. * * *
Whatever our views may be, the pay
ment of this debt will fall upon the fu
ture. Do what wo may, a generation
that will come after us, will decide its
mode of payment and without regard
to anything that wo may say: The
depressed industry of our land, its suf
fering labor, demand that the load of
taxation be lightened. There is a per
fect accord in the Democratic ranks as
to the policy, and need of honesty and
economy; but there is more difference
of opinion as to the construction of the
contract with the public creditor.—
Some hold that it is right, and that it
is duo to the tax payers, that wo
should save what we can by paying
the principal of the debt in currency ;
but they underrate the force of their
own arguments. It is a mistake to
suppose that the interests of the bond
holder and tax payers aro antagonis
tie. The fact is overlooked that in
order to make any saving by giving
the bondholder a debased and- worth
less paper wo would bring upon our
selves disaster and dishonor. It means
that wo are to give to the laborer for
his toil a base currency; it means that
the honor °four country shall be statn
ed; it means that our business shall be
kept in uncertainty and confusion; it
means that the laboring man shall suf
fer by the increased cost of the com
forts of life ; it means that the tax pay
ers shall be burdened by a Government
proved to be corrupt and imbecile by
this very depreciation of its money.—
We can't afford to speculate upon the
Nation's honor at so fearful a cost.
Cincinnati papers report that the
- whole Johnson party in that city and
county has gone over to Grant and
Colfax.; its organ announces itself as
Republican, and the leaders do the
same
Political Chip Basket.
Ex-Gov. Curtin spoke for Grant and
Colfax at a meeting at Doylestown
last week. Andy is a full team.
A Democrat who was with his coun
try during the war is counted a ',ren
egade Democrat'l by. those who didn't
smell powder.
Brick Pomeroy, in his New York
Democrat, puts it frankly when ho
says "If Democratic editors is the
years past had been truer to principle
and less hungry for contracts and offi
cial patronage ' the war would have
been shorter, the national debt less,
and the land more peaceful and pros
perous."
The Southern Democrats have the
correct view of the Democratic ticket.
They rarely or never mention Sey
mour at all. Everything is Blair.—
Their organizations aro called "Blair
Knights," "Blair Sentinels," "Blair
Guards," etc. But none of them bear
Seymour's name. What does it mean
Do they expect, if they should bo suc
cessful, that _Blair will occupy tho
Presidential chair ? What then ? War,
more bloodshed, and more taxes.
In a recent speech Wade Hampton
said : "The old Government was•hon
ored at home, and respected abroad;
taxation was light, and plenty blessed
the land." If this were so, then why
did Hampton wage a furious, bloody
and protracted war 'to destroy "the
old Government ?" Those whom he
I and his associates now traduce gave
half a million oflives and five thousand
millions of money to preserve that go
vernment. These Southern gentlemen
should know that the people of the
North estimate at its real value their
present solicitude for the honor of the
"old Government." The advice they
aro so lavishly tendering in the pend•
ing campaign
,is not relished by loyal
men of either partY. •If they really
desire the election of Seymour, pru
dence if not modesty would bow them
to the rear. They don't look well in
front.
