sou How bald, coldly bald, the Philo
sopher looks down upon the prostituted
columns of the Globe from his perch at its
mast-head. Such perfidy !' How could it
be otherwise ? And, oh ! Greeley, all this
in thy name
vs_ The Patriot says the "defection of
the Huntingdon Globe will be keenly felt
by the Radicals of Huntingdon county."
This is news, indeed ! Papers that make
bi-ennial somersaults, the Patriot is aware,
have a great deal of influence. Bah !
Buckslew. Hartley, and Thompson aro magnetic
names. Whenever they are mentioned in political
circles they create a feeling of satisfaction.—Mif

It must be rebel circles, then, because
three more ardent sympathizers with the
rebellion never asked office at the hands of
a loyal people.
vs.. There was a funeral-like dullness,
that was apparent to everybody, pervaded
almost every line of the last Globe. The
inward consciousness of great wrong im
pressed itself even upon the blank paper .
Could it have spoken it would have cried :
"Shame ! Shame ! weak, mercenary man,

This shows how the ladies feel in regard to
this matter.
- • tier The Globe, while justifying its
treachery, in speaking of Grant, says:
"Instead of !selecting the best men to advisehim,
he has surrounded himself with the most corrupt
political 'peculators, and given out the running of
his administration by contract to the most venal
of mankind, in every State of the Union."
Now, don't the trouble consist in just
this: That the editor of that paper failed
to get a small slice, or paying little con
tract? If he had the above would never
have been written.
ofp,,, A telegram from this place to the
Patriot, sent by Mr. Speer, to the effect
that the Globe, an "old and influential
(God forgive him!) Republican (?) paper,
(supported Mr. Speer two years ago,) pub
lished at the home of Senator Scott" had
gone over to Greeley and his "Gratz."—
The treason of Arnold, the compatriot of
Washington, detracted nothing from the
lustre of the Father of his Country. The
traitor "was shunned and despised by eve
rybody," says the historian, "save the
Ring (Mr. Speer) and a few persons is
authority" (small-fry Democrats.)
THE GLOBE'S THIMBLE-RIGGING
For tie purpose of showing the Repub
licans of the State, (became at home, where
its character is known, it is entirely unne
cessary,) what the Democratic party has
secured in the purchase of the Globe, we
copy, partly, from the old files of the Jour
nal and American, a few of the flip-flaps it
has made since attaching itself to the Re
publican party.
Barroß
As soon as the war was over the Globe
began to misrepresent the soldiers, and on
the 23d of August, 1865, the following
card, numerously signed by veterans, ap
peared in the Journal and American:
We, the undersigned returned soldiers, (citizens
of Huntingdon Borough, and members of the Union
Republican party,) who voted at the delegate elec
tion held in said Borough on Saturday, August 12th,
for Messrs. Steel and Black, in opposition to the
bogus ticket of Lewis, Bricker and Co., hereby de
clare that the allegations published in the last is
sue of the Huntingdon Globe, that we "were de
ceived," were "sorry for what we had done," and
other unblushing and notorious falsehoods, are
alike unjust to the TRUE FRIENDS OF THE SOLDIERS
IN THIS BOROUGH, INSULTING TO OURSELVES, AND
WORTHY ONLY OF THE DEMAGOGUE AND POLTROON
FROM WHOM THEY EMANATE.
On the 6th of September, 1865, the
JournaZ and American contained thi fol
lowing statement, by a Douglas Democrat,
showing the mercenary character of the
man :
On the 14th day of July I was in Huntingdon,
and was approached by the editor of the (}lobe,
who endeavored to convince me that the Douglas
Democrats "held the balance of power in this
county," and if we would demand it we could compel
the Republican party to pay us for our influence, or
words of that import. He said he "had been work
ing for the Republican party for four years, and
he would be dd (f it wasn't time that us Douglas
Democrats were getting something; if we didn't
soon, ace toast look out Aar ourselves." His whole
conversation was in the same strain and he can
eluded by leaving me to infer that he wanted my
support to send him as a delegate to the Repub
lican State Convention. After he had finished,
I told him that as to his having aided the
Republican party for four years, I knew that
to be untrue, as it was but two years ago
he supported the copperhead candidate for Con
gress in this district, in opposition to the ablest
Union man in the district,—l believe I added, but
um not positive—fo- the paltry sum of $3OO. I
told him sixteen of my neighbors and mysoievoted
for Mr. Douglas (who received but twenty-taco votes
in the county,) leaving five from other portions of
the county. I was not indebted to him for my
tickets, as he bad printed no Douglas tieleetat, but on
the contrary, he had printed the ticket that was
voted by every Breckenridge copperhead in ifin
tingdon county. I told him he not only did that,
but more, he did not vote for Mr. Douglas. For
him to claim to lead the twenty-two Democrats in
this county who did vote for Mr. Douglas was as
great presumption as he displayed when he head
ed the column of forty-two Huntingdon borough
Douglas Democrats, that marched to the polls in
Huntingdon last fall to vote for Mr. Lincoln ! I
told him I came out of the Democratic nest before
he had done feathering his pinions, and thought it
the coolest impudence to demand a recompense
from the party that had lifted him out of the nest
be had befouled, and in which he would yet have
been wallowing had it not lost its "cohesive attrac
tion of publio plunder."
Again we copy, from the same paper,
under date of July 4, 1866, the following
resolution passed by a Convention of "Boys
in Blue," held in this place, on Friday,
the 29th day of June, 1866 :
Reeolved, That the League of Huntingdon
County respectfully request Col. Frank Jordan,
Chairman of the State Central Committee of
Pennsylvania, to appoint a reliable member of the
Union Republican Party in the place of Wm. Lewis,
Editor of the Huntingdon Globe, who is now so
basely MISREPRESENTING the Party he had
himself appointed to serve.
At the opening of the campaign of 1866,
the Globe elevated the name of Gen. John
W. Geary to its mast-head. On the 22d
of August following it contained the fol
lowing article :
Before, and at the time Gen. Geary was nomin
ated, and since then, and up to the issue made by
the Harrisburg Telegreph, that "the larger Geary's
majority, the sterner will be the rebuke administered
to Andrew Johnson,' we were his friend, but we
could not feel certain at any time that his election
was sure, because one fact pressed upon us, that,the
radicals would use and abuse him. And now that
we ha re taken our position with the National Union
Party we cannot expect him as the nominee of the
Union Republican Party to stand upon ourplatform
of principles, we take hie name down from our
mast-head, and will leave the place vacant until a
candidate is nominated who will endorse the
platform of our party. We could support Geary
as a soldier, as a man, as a friend, but we cannot
support him as a candidate of the radical Repub
lican party. No friend of Andrew Johnson can
vote for Gen. Geary. Nu sensible man, a true
friend of Johnson's policy to restore this Union,
can vote for Geary and by so doing aidthe radicals
in passing an insulting judgement upon Andrew
Johnson . Other mon can and will do as they please
but as for ourself we shall act consistent with cur
professions.
Here, then, he switched back to the
Democratic party, where he remained un
til the nomination of Gen. Grant. On the
27th of May, 1868, the Globe shows he
flipped back, joyously, thus :
We feel happy. Gen. Grant was onr candidate
for the Preeidenoy when he was not thought of for
that position by politicians and leaders of parties.
The masses of the great war party were for Grant
because he was not a rolitician—and the masses
forced the politiCians aside, and we have Grant—
the first victory for the honest people—the second
we will have in November if we all pull together.
We feel happy. Grant's platform is his record—he
has been tried and not found wanting.
Oh, how happy he was ! The poor,
miserable stupid ! He stuck to this until
1870, when, with the name of Daniel J.
Morrell at the head of his paper, he treach
erously did all he could to defeat him.—
This is only his record since he has been
trifling with the Republican party. This
is the thing you have purchased. Was it
worth purchasing ?
HARTRANFT'S WORK
General Hartranft has a substantial foun
dation on which to rest his claims to popu
lar suffrage. The Delaware American
says: All admit his heroic bravery in the
field, but how has he performed his duty
as Auditor General ? During his term,
by masterly executive ability in guarding
public resources and scrutinizing expenses,
he reduced the State indebtedness $4,324, -
055 78; during his second term the re
duction was $4,771,388 25—in all $9,-
950,440 40. This is practical work ac
complished by practical hands ! It hasn't
the rounded periods which Buckalew bor
rows from Mill, Stewart and Marshall in
their advocacy of the cumulative system,
but it shows positive managing ability as
useful to a Governor as skill on the stump.
He has brought up the credit of the State
from a standard in 1866, when its bonds
sold for 88i, to the present ruling price
-Ist series, 103 ; 2d, 102@103 ; 3d, 107 !
When Hartranft entered office the debt
was $37,485,455 41, it is now mainly
through his care, $28,380,011 11, the re
duction being, as stated, $9,940,440 40,
and this without any increase in taxation,
and with the tax on Real Estate and Per
sonal Occupations removed by a Republi
can Legislature. These are results—they
are better than dreams or rhetoric directed
toward the advocacy of a hobby aristocrat
ic in its tendency, and designed to destroy
our system of government. Buckalew,
with all his opportunities, has, as yet, ac
complished nothing. Hartranft, self-made,
has promoted the public good from first to
last in field and civil service. In the
presence of facts like these, few men should
hesitate in their choice.

To the Eepub;icans of Huniingdon
County I
It is with mortification, rather than sur
prise, that we inform you that our co
temporary, and heretofore pseudo-laborer
in -the Republican party, has, for reasons
best known to its proprietor, determined
to openly desert to the enemy. The Globe of
last week hauls down the battle-worn stars
-and stripes, emblazoned with Grant and
Wilson, and runs up the. Confederate rag
of Greeley and Brown. The time-worn
banner which, proudly floated from the
mast-head of that paper, during the dark
days of the Rebellion, is now trailed in the
dust and supplanted by
• "A flag of bars,
A fragment, torn by traitorous bands, from Freedom's
'tripe and stars?"
And what has brought about this trea
son ? Have any great changes been made
in the Republican principles ? Have any
grave errors been committed by the Ad
ministration at Washington lately ? No.
Why then this desertion ? Go ask Mr.
Speer; let him answer. He has been
"plowing with your heifer" for years. He
has now purchased her. His promise to
pay has sealed the business, and you, Re
publicans of Huntingdon county, are part
of the cattle to go with the purchase. The
Globe HAS BEEN BOUGHT FOR THE
EXPRESS PURPOSE OF GETTING
POSSESSION OF THE VOTES OF
THE REPUBLICANS WHO PATRO
NIZE, SUBSCRIBE FOR AND READ

to be bartered away in this manner ? To
be sold like cattle ? Like sheep in the

WE KNOW YOU WILL SPURN THE
INSULT!
Then, Republicans, organize ! Let a
Grant, Wilson and Hartranft club be
formed in every ward, borough and dis
trict in the county ! Enrol the name of
every Republican in the precinct. Our
enemies are at work. They expect that
The Globe has demoralized you and many
of you are prepared to endorse its treach
erous and infamous course. Give them
the lie ! We know that the masses of the
Republican party are as true as the iron
manufactured from ores taken from your

Grant, has brought you Peace and Pros

CHARLES R. BUCKALEW.
When our country was in its greatest
strait a band of the most able and unscru
pulous rebels took refuge in Canada, says
the Pittsburgh Commercial, for the better
prosecution of their plans for burning
Northern cities and inciting the worst
classes in the North to riot and revolt.—
They were abundantly supplied with money,
and the bloody New York riots and the
repeated attempts to burn that city, and
other outrages, without doubt, were the
result of their plots. While prosecuting
their labors they were visited by certain
Democratic leaders who were in sympathy
with Jeff. Davis and were by all the means
in their power assisting him. Among them
was Charles R. Buckalew, as we now first
learn from the official report of the rebel
Holcombe, made at the time. Can it be
doubted that he visited these rebel con
spirators because their cause was his cause ?
To this Holcombe himself testifies, for he
refers to these visits and this description
of aid and comfort as affording the best
assurance of the ultimate success of the
rebellion. In this and other ways Bucka
lew has done everything in his power to
render that success sure and speedy. This
is no idle talk—no mere campaign inven
tion. It is a fact, now as well settled as
that Lee defended Richmond. Buckalew
does-not deny that his sympathies and his
efforts—so far as he dared to act—were
on the rebel side. He dare not deny his
visit to the rebels in Canada, nor will he
pretend that Holcombe told not the truth
when he reported to Benjamin that it was
through the sympathy and co-operatian of
such men as Buckalew that the rebellion
would succeed, if it succeeded at all.—
Buckalew, at that time, as all through the
war, was a helper of the rebellion. He
not only conferred with the rebel agents
in Canada, but was the friend of deserters,
-who in large numbers made his county
their place of refuge and there defied the
law,—he was all that a copperhead of the
worst sort could be. To-day he is the De
mocratic candidate for Governor of Penn
sylvania. Judged by his conduct during
the war, he is not as worthy of the support
of the loyal citizens of his State as would
be Gen. Bragg had he come here to reside
after the surrender; for an open enemy is
always to be preferred to an enemy in dis
guise.
Had Buckaleiv made open profession of
his rebel principles, gone South and fought
for them, and failing returned, he would
now have a better title to the support of his
State than that which the course he did
pursue gives him.
This is not an outlawed question. The
period of Buckalew's offense—nay crime
—is not so remote as to exempt him from
condemnation—much less is he entitled to
the highest reward of good conduct. We
yet display our riddled battle-flags, decorate
the graves of the fallen, and still mourn
the loss of fathers and sons; we pay $30,-
000,000 annually in peosions; we do all
this and much more, as a patriotic, reli
gious duty ; and the question comes home
to Pennsylvania voters : with the same
hand and same breath, shall we reward
with the highest honors the man who, du
ring all the dreadful struggle, stood among
us covertly assisting the other side,—shall
we prefer him to one who fought nobly
from the opening clear through the war to
the end ?
KW The Globe says: "We have separated,
politically, from many warm friends who
cannot now see the situation as we see it,
but who, we honestly believe will follow us
in good time." Yes, to the hill eventually,
but in the present funeral not by a darned
sight !
POLITICS AND TRADE,
It will be admitted by every candid bu
siness man in the United States, that the
general business of the country was never
in a more prosperous condition than at'
present. Nay more, we may go back to
that period when Gen. Grant brought the
war to a close, and from that day up to the
present time has been a period of contin
ued growth ; increase, and healthy devel
opment in nearly every branch of industry.
No exception of any considerable impor
tance can be named. This is not mere as
sertion. It is a happy realization. And
let him who proposes to offer a denial of
the truth produce the proofs to the con
trary.
It will be remembered that at the close
of the war a general dread seized the pub
lic mind that a commercial crisis must
ensue : a heavy debt, the unsettled condi
tion of our commerce and the heavy pre
mium on gold rendered a crash inevitable,
it was said. Yet it did not occur, and
why ? Mainly through the precautionary
measures of Congress, based on the sug
gestions of the Secretaiy of the Treasury,
and of capitalists of large experience, cor
rect judgment and wise foretaste and dis
crimination. The result has astonished
not only our own business men, but the
entire commercial world; and to-day the
people both of America and of Europe are
loud in their expressions of surprise at the
financial achievements of the Grant Ad
ministration. The Republican party as
sumed control of the Government from the
Buchanan Administration, at a time when
the Secretary of the Treasury, under De
mocratic rule, was borrowing money at
twelve per cent. per annum. Now, with
the war debt upon his shoulders, in addi
tion to the usual ordinary expenses of tie
Government, Secretary Boutwell can com
mand all the money he requires at Jive zier
cent. per annum.
But suppose that Greeley should become
President of the United States, what would
be the effect upon our finances and the
general trade of the country? He is al
ready committed, sold, body and intellect,
to the Democracy, who were paying 12
per cent. for the use of money for the or
dinary expenses of the Government when
they went out of power. How long would
they be in power again before the credit
of the Government would force the inter
est on borrowed capital up to former De
mocratic figuras ; and with the interest, on
our immense debt run up from 5 per cent.
to 8, 10, or 12 per cent., as it was under
Bughanan, how long could the country
bear up under the increased burden ?
Already business has felt the effects of
Greeley's nomination. The extensive firm
of Pope & Co., dealers in pig iron, &c., in
New York City, say in their last monthly
circular:
The nomination of Mr. Greeley has had a de
pressing effect on business, and has filled the minds
of financial men with alarm and apprehension for
the affairs of nextseason, shoultlhe be unfortunate
ly elected. His well known 'on to Richmond'mess
uro of specie payments—letting go all the reserve
specie and currency in the Treasury, and declaring
by act of Congress or by proclamation a return to
specie payments the next day; his hatred so vitu
peratively expressed of the trading classes, his as
sociation with Tweed and the deposed Ring leaders
here, all point in his success to disaster and to the
complete disorganization of society—disorganiza
tion being his pet doctrine and 'what he knows' of
it his favorite practice."
If business is thus affected by the mere
nomination of this inexperienced, vain and
impracticable aspirant to the Presidency,
what would be the effect of his election
upon the financial credit and general busi
ness of the country? A worse calamity
could scarcely overtake our industries.
There are yet ninety days before the
election ; and if in that time the people fail
to see the doom that awaits them under
Horace Greeley as their Chief Magistrate,
they ought indeed to be made to suffer for
their imprudence in aiding by their votes
to change the National condition from that
of peace, credit, thrift and general pros
perity, to a Democratic policy, free trade,
the pensioning of the rebel soldiers, pay
ment of the rebel claims and confederate
bonds; resulting in a largely increased
public debt, higher rates of interest, a loss
of credit abroad, and ultimate prostration
of business and a commercial crisis at home.
NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION,
The State in Doubt,
The election in North Carolina, on last
Thursday, was one of the most hotly con
tested of any ever held in the Old North
State. A very large vote was polled by
both parties. Both parties claim the
State up to the time we go to press. The
probabilities arc that the Democrats have
carried it by 1,000 or 2,000 majority.—
The Legislature is conceded to them. It
is quite probable, also, that they have
elected a majority of the Congressional
delegation.
The election demonstrates the fact that
all the old rebel element is consolidated
and making a desperate effort to be re-in
stated in power through the election of
Horace Greeley. Loyal Men, Soldiers of
the Union, these men whom you conquer
ed at the point of the bayonet, expect to
retrieve all their losses by a resort to the
ballot! The bullet having failed to accom
plish the work—the BALLOT MUST ! Will
you be less efficient with the one than
with the other ?
g Here are a few questions which
the Harrisburg Telegraph would like to
have answered by some of the friends of
Judge Thompson, the Democratic candi
date for Supreme Judge. During the war
did he not declare the law to raise men for
our armies to be illegal ? During the same
time did he not declare the law to raise
money to pay our armies to be illegal?—
Was he not on the bench when the posi
tion of the prothonotary of the court—his
son-in-law—was used to manufacture fraud
ulent naturalization papers ? Did he not
decide in favor of the State in the Credit
Mobilier case, and thereafter in the same
case decide against the State, losing our
Commonwealth $3,000,000 ?
s 9„ The Democratic papers are deter
mined to make all out of the acquisition
of the Globe they can. They . set up a
most animated cackle, but it's a bad egg or
no egg at all ! And it tickles Daddy ! He
likes to be flattered; it makes him feel so
good! Soft solder and a few little stamps
—Mr. Speer has both—make the very
marrow in his bones tingle ! Oh, Daddy,
don't you feel good ? "Stop my paper !"
GEN. HARRISON ALLEN
Our National Progress says: The Peo
ple's Candidate for Auditor General arri
vzd in Harrisburg last week, and has been
spending a few days here. While here he
has been visited by hundreds of his admi
rers, many of whom, though Democrats,
mean to vote for him. Some of them have
known him from his boyhood, and admire
his energy and persistency in honorably
overcoming the difficulties of poverty which
lay in his path.
Others know him as a citizen, who has
always cheerfully borne his share of the
burdens of the State, and as an honest and
upright man in all his dealings.
Others know him ns a warm friend of
the poor man, of every nationality—and
honor him accordingly.
Others know him as a bravo soldier of
the war against rebellion, and do not for
get him now when the war is over, and
the results of the war are to be secured.
Others know him as an able representa
tive of his Senatorial district, who fought
corruption, despised bribes and voted con
scientiously for the good of the State.
All know him as a genial gentleman and
a staunch Republican.-
From a careful canvassing of the State
at this writing, making all allowances for
weak-kneed and false-hearted Republicans,
we are assured that the election of the
Republican State ticket in October is safe,
and that Gen. Allen will, if anything. run
ahead of his ticket.
Gen. Hartranft and Gen. Allen will not
only be elected, but elected by a large ma
jority.
Let us go forward—Hartranft, Allen.
Mereur and Victory, our rallying cry.
Se" Henry Ward Beecher says he don't
fight Greeley in the campaign, and would
have gladly supported him had he been
nominated by the Republicans. We quote
from a late article in the Christian Union
by Beecher :
"We don't tight Greeley. But we do contend
against breaking up the Republican party, and
putting the Government into the hands of the
Democratic party. . We deem
the Republican party to be the sounder, safer,
more earnest for the great ends of public good,
than any nascent party made up by the most ex
traordinary coalition known to political history of
men who have spent their lives in mortal conflicts
with each other, and who have come together, not

common hatreds. 'Anything to beat Grant.' "
The Huntingdon Globe, nominally Republican,
over whose conversion to Greeleyism the Demo
cratic press is rejoicing, has been playing a double
game for two or three years past, making trouble
all the time. It has done the party the best ser
vice it could by leaving it.—Harrisbarg Telegraph.
These are the sentiments of every hon
est Republican in Huntingdon county.—
We are told that Mr. Lewis, two or three
years ago, boasted to Democrats that he
was only "staying in the Republican party
for the purpose of breaking it up." His
disaffection and desertion will not injure
us a dozen votes, and for all we know at
present not above one.
ZE)''' The Pittsburgh Commercial says
" The publication of the rebel archives is throw
ing a flood of light on the position and action of
individuals during the war. To say nothing about
the awkward light in which Mr. Greeley is placed
by llolcombe's report, we get a clear view of Mr.
Charles R. Buckalew. We find him visiting these
rebel conspirators in Canada. If not a syllable
was before known of his sympathies whoa the
country was in the death struggle, there could be
no doubt from this single fact on which side he
he was. Pennsylvania sent her sons in tens of
thousands to tho bloody field, and all her extraor
dinary energies were exerted to save the Republic,
but Charles R. Buckalew, an for from supporting
them, intrigued with the enemy. Now he comes
before the people of the State for the highest hon
ors within their gift. It is a simple question which
follows: Shall he have them ?"
sa. The last few days have satisfied us
that the Republicans of Huntingdon coun
ty cannot be bought and sold like cattle.
This is what we like to see. Let every
Republican, who has been influenced by
the Globe, if there are any such, be seen
at once and straightened up. We must
counteract Mr. Speer's little game. Old
and young, go to work ! The Republican
party must be maintained at all hazards,
and to those who do the work belong the
reward, not to the indolent and worthless.
)IZ - • The Sunday Transcript says
"John F. Hartranft was one of the bravo and
sterling old-line Democrats who would not bend
his nuk to tho Southern slave-drivers. When,
therefore, the latter determined upon rebellion, he
knew exactly what he was engaged to fight, and
felt from the first what would be the result - . On
the other hand, Buckalcw opposed the Govern
ment offering any resistance to secession and re
bellion, because he believed the South had a right
to secede and revolt to save slavery—to perpetuate
the power to sell human beings into a lifetime of
bondage. If Buckalew had had his way, slavery
would never have been abolished."
34_ The Globe says :
"Our conscience tells us we are right, and where
our conscience directs we will be regardless of con
sequences."
- - -
How much does it take to make your
conscience tell you that you are right?—
How is your conscience ? A little elastic,
ain't it?
ge.,, Mr. Tyhurst's connection with the
Globe ceased with the last issue of that
paper. lle is entitled to the heartiest
commendation for his patriotic devotion to
principle, and deserves the warmest sym
paties of the party. Mr. Lindsay also re
tires as associate editor.
"We have separated, politically, from many
warm friends who cannot now see the situation as
we see it
How could they ? You have had a
chance to "see it" and they have not. It
was a STEER-it, you know, and everybody
don't believe in SPEER-its!
Why Douglas Opposes Greeley,
In a leading article in this week's .New
National Era Frederick Douglass speaks
of his personal regard for Horace Greeley,
and then proceeds to explain why he can
not aid and encourage him in his eager
pursuit of the Presidency. He says: "He
has united his fortune with a party based
upon personal g rievances , and not upon
broad grounds of national good. Personal
disappointments personal envy, personal
resentments' personal ambitions have
united in personal opposition to Grant and
in personal favor of Horace Greeley. Now
we are utterly opposed to this sort of per
sonal politics. A man who abandons a
party has not the same sense of his personal
merits that he has himself, and who joins
another hoping for better luck with the
new than with the old, may be courageous
as well as cunning, but it is impossible to
command such an one for political wisdom
or virtue Ho acts upon the principle
that what is good for him must be good
for the country, and makes himself greater
than the nation, and affirms that a part is
more than the whole. He puts himself
first and country last. He may not always
do this consciously but, Whether intention-
ally or not, the thing is done ; and the
whole Cincinnati movement has its foun
dation, its starting point and mainspring,
in this sort of personal politics. They ac- 1
cuse General Grant of personal government, '
while every department of it is as in de
pendent to-day of the Executive as under
any Administration since Washington."
The New Nominees for Congressmen

GENERAL CHARLES ALBRIGHT.
Gen. Albright is a resident of Mauch
Chunk, Carbon county, and is not quite
fifty years of age. He was educated at
Dickinson college, and embraced the pro
fession of law, in the active practice of
which he is still engaged. He is also active
ly interested in the banking business, being
president of the Second National Bank of
Mauch Chunk.
In August, 1862, he was mustered into
service as major of the 132 d regiment of
Pennsylvania Volunteers, with which he
served until the regiment was mustered
out of service on May 24, 1863. He was
promoted to be lieutenant colonel of the
regiment on September 24, 1862, and to
the colonelcy on January 24, 1863. The
regiment arrived on the field just at the
close of the battle of South Mountain,
September 13,1862, but in time to take an
active and efficient part in the pursuit of
the enemy across Antietam creek. During
October, it took part in reconnoissances
to Leesburg and Charlestown, West Vir
ginia, and then joined in the general move
ment of the army towards Rappahannock
and preparations for battle of Fredericks
burg. The regiment was led in the charge
on Mayre's Heights, on the afternoon of
November 13, by Lieutenant Colonel
Albright, and although side by side with
veteran troops, it stood the brut manfully.
Sickness and casualties had reduced the
command from the full complement to 340
effective men, and of these 150 were lost in
this assault. The regiment, subsequent to
this engagement, performed only the or
dinary guard and picket duty near the
banks of the Rappahannock, until the bat
tle of Chancellorville in which it took part,
being subject to a severe fire on the morn
ing of the 3d of May, and losing 20 men.
Its term of service having expired, it re
turned home and was mustered out of ser
vice.
Two thirds of the regiment re-enlisted,
however, and Colonel Albright again en
tered the field at the head of 202 d Regi
ment of Pennsylvania Volunteers. The
new regiment was mustered in on Septem
ber 3, 1864, but Colonel Albright waP
absent from his regular command for some
time, in command of the forces employed
to suppress the riotous disturbance of the
miners in Columbia county. The 202 d
was first employed in keeping open Sheri
dan's connections while operating in the
Shenandoah Valley, and subsequently in
guarding the Orange and Alexandria rail
road. During this period they had frequent
skirmishes with the enemy, but took part
in no pitched battle. In May, 1865, the
202 d returned to the State, and portions
of it were on duty in the coal regions, and
on August 3 it was mustered out of service,
its colonel having, on March 7 previously,
been brevetted a brigadier-general fcr his
gallant conduct during the war.
General Albright is a prominent mem
ber of the Methodist Church, and was one
of the lay delegates to the recent General
Conference of that denomination, held at
Brooklyn, taking an active part in the de
bates and deliberations.
HON. GLENN' W. SCOFIELD,
Judge Scofield, the third candidate for
Congressman at large, is too well known to
require extended notice. He was born in
Chautauqua county, New York, March 11,
1817 ; graduated at Hamilton College in
1840, and removed to Warren, Pa., where
he was admitted to the bar in 1843. In 1850
and 1851 he was a member of the State
Assembly; and from 1857 to 1859 he was
in the State Senate.
• In 1861 he was appointed President
Judge of the Eighteenth Judical District
of the State, and in 1862 he was elected a
Representative from Pennsylvania to the
Thirty-eighth Congress, being subsequently
re-elected four times in succession, and
serving lately as chairman of the Committee
on Naval Affairs. He was a delegate to
the recent National Republican, Conven
tion, and acted as chairman ot the . Com
mittee on Platform of that body. Judge
Scofield has taken a high standing in
Congress, and is unquestionably one of the
strongest men before the people in the
State. He had refused to accept a renom
ination for Congress in the Nineteenth dis
trict, which he has now represented for
nearly ten years, but will doubtless consent
to go upon the ticket as a candidate for
Congressman at Large.
