A Dangerous Man
The following from the Galena (Ill.) Cozen
is so much better than the ordinary run o
political campaign poetry, that we publish i
entire. It is good enough :
Mr. Sumner says Grant is a bold, bad, dan
gerous man.—Newspaper.

"A bold, bad man is General Grant,"
Said Floyd one gloomy night,
As out from Douelson he crept,
And took his hasty flight.
From Pillow's trembling lips there came
An echo sounding much the same,
And Buckner thought his chief was right,
Nor longer durst maintain the fight ;
And from the fort hung stripes and stars.
"That Grant's a dangerous man," said they
And doubtless think the same this day.
"A bold, bad man is General Grant,"
Said Beauregard one morn,
And from the haughty traitor's brow
The victor's wreath was torn ;
And from the field his legions went,
By orders General Grant had sent.
Then Shiloh's field was ours again,
Despite the host of rebel men,
Who came an army boasting loud,
And went a panic-stricken crowd ;
For Beauregard and all his men
Perhaps thought Grant was dangerous then.
"A bold, bad man is General Grant,"
Said Pemberton one day ;
"Entreaties are of no avail,
Ha will not go away.
A stubborn, mulish, dangerous man !
He wants our rebel hides to tan."
And still Grant's cannon raked the town,
Until the rebel flags came down ;
And then our banners, rent and torn,
Were through the streets of Vicksburg borne,
The"bold, bad man,"that glorious "Fourth"
Sent gladsome tidings to the North.
"A bold, bad man is General Grant!"
And poor Bragg's eyes were dim
With tears ; said he, "I know,
'Tie useless fighting him."
And soon the cheers of Grant's brave men
On Lookout's crest told where and when
The rebel general had to run,
And what that "bold, bad man" had done.
"That Grant's a dangerous man !" he said,
As from the field his army fled.
"A bold, bad man is General Grant,"
Said Lee, "that's plain to see;
He must be very bold, indeed,
To think of whipping me."
Then Petersburg and Richmond fell ;
And Appomatua—may be—well,
At last our hero's work was done ;
The final victory was won.
Perhaps the people may forget
These things, but then they haven't yet.
They needed then such "dangerous" men,
And think, perhaps, they may again.

"A bold, bad man is General Grant I"
Jeff. Davis thought the same,
When running off in crinoline,
He to the 'last ditch" came.
A Ku Mita gentle voice was beard,
And—" Grant is dangerous" avered.
It needs must be that this is so,
For all these rebels ought to know.
Then Hall and Tweed—good, honest men—
Say "Grant is bold and bad," and when
Such men declare it, then, forsooth,
Folks know that Sumner tells the truth.

The following letter has been addressed
to Gen. John A. Dix, the Republican
nominnee for Governor of New York, by
Hon. Peter Cooper :
NEW YORK, Sept. 4, 1872.
PLEASED WITH OEN. DIX'S NOMINATION.
GEN. JOHN A. Dix :—/lonored and
Respected Friend : Allow me to express
the pleasure that your nomination for the
Chief Magistracy of our State has given
to myself and the millions who long for a
government that will look to the establish
ment of justice as the only means where
by the highest welfare- of the State and
nation can be effectually promoted.
Your past services in behalf of our
common country should inspite all with
the hope that the day will come when
honesty and capacity will become the only
passport to all places of public trust.—
There never was a time when we were more
in need of sterling integrity and firm ad
herence to those principles that guided
our fathers in their efforts to frame for us
a constitution which they intended should
establish justice, secure domestic tranquil
ity, and promote the general welfare. by
"guaranteeing a republican form of gov
ernment founded on the inalienable right
of every man to life, liberty and the pur
suit of happiness."

WHAT TIIE REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS DONE.
Guided by the Constitution, the Repub
lican party, united with the War Democ
racy of our country, has saved the na
tion's life, and has disbanded and paid the
largest army known to modern times.
Our movement has already reduced the
national debt, and has saved by a policy
of peace with the Indians hundreds of
millions of dollars that would otherwise
have been spent in carrying on a cruel
war against a people that once owned the
whole country, and that so lately that my
own mother remembered the old "Chevaux
de frise" to keep off the Indians where
Duane street now crosses Broadway.
Besides all this, the party in power has
kept the nation at peace at home and
throughout the world, and has secured for
our country a degree of prosperity unsur
passed in the history of mankind.
There is nothing that could be more
cruel and ungrateful than for a Govern
ment like ours to leave four millions of
emancipated slaves to the tender mercies
of the class of men who have been educa
ted to hold slaves as property, and are now
acting with that part of the Democratic
party who have sympathized with the men
of the South in all their efforts to main
tain and extend slavery.
WHO SUPPORT GREELEY.
We may well ask whether it would be
wise for us as a nation to incur the tre
mendous responsibility of putting all at
hazard in order to try the doubtful"exper
ment of placing the Government in the
hands of a party made up of all the dis
loyal, all the disappointed, and dissatisfied
men of our country. The most of these
men believe in a "white man's govern
*ment." They are using all their arts to
elect our esteemed friend Horace Greeley
for the President of the United States.
By this they hope to accomplish their
purpose of regaining their "lost cause."
I fear if our friend should have the bad
fortune to be elected, he will find that he
has lent his influence to a class of men
who will use the power they gain to place
the blacks under the ban of serfdom or
peopage, which may be as bad, if not
worse, than slavery itself. Our friend
may find himself, with his best intentions,
entirely powerless to control a government
made up of men who believe that the
"black man has no rights that the white
man is bound to respect."
GREELEY AND JOHNSON COMPARED.
He should take warning by the course
of ex-President Johnson, who at one time
was found reprobating rebels and their
rebellion in more unsparing terms than
have ever been written or spoken by any
other man either living or dead.
In his tirade against rebels and their
rebellion, he says that "treason against
the Government is the highest crime that
can be committed, and those engaged in it
should suffer all its penalties." He de
clares that "treason must be made odious;
that traitors must be punished and impov
erished." He then says : "I hold it a
solemn obligation in every one of those
States where the rebel armies have been
beaten back or expelled, I care not how
small the number of Union men, if enough
to man the ship of State, I hold it to be a
high duty to protect and secure to them a
republican form of government." In
calling a convention to restore States, he
asks: "Who shall restore them ? Shall
the man who gave his influence and
his means to destroy the Government;
is he to participate in the great work of
reorganizing the Government, who brought
this misery on the State ? If this be so,
then in truth all the precious blood of our
brave soldiers and officers will have been
shed in vain." He then says : "The
traitor has ceased to be a citizen, and in
raising rebellion became a public enemy,
and has •forfeited his rights to vote with
loyal men."
GREELEY'S INFATUATION.
Notwithstanding all these denunciations
of rebels and their rebellion, we find him
using all his influence to place those very
rebels in power, in connection with that
portion of our country who are in sym
pathy with them. lam entirely at a loss
to account for the infatuation that has in
duced my esteemed friend brace Greeley
to allow himself to be the candidate of a
party so at war with all that he has written
and said in denunciation of these men and
the principles that control them. In con
clusion, allow me to offer you, in the
eighty-second year of my age, my most
fervent thanks for your devotion to ail the
best interests of a country that I shall
soon leave, with my best wishes for its
continued prosperity and happiness.
Yours, with great respect,
PETER COOPER.
General Charles Albright.
The Democratic press of the more deba
sed class, in certain portions of the State,
are just now engaged in one of those low
partisan crusades which periodically dis
grace the politics of our country. Their
target in this instance is General Albright,
one of the candidates on the Republican
ticket for Congressman at large in this
State. We know that it is not necessary
for us to make any defence of him against
his libelers, for his public record and pri
vate character are alike beyond the reach
of his calumniators. These attacks upon
him, we notice, are confined almost exclu
sively to the coal regions, and are made
for no other reason than because he has
been endorsed by the Labor Reformers as
one of their candidates, and the Democra
cy hope to neutralize such endorsement by
vile slanders and malicious libels. In this
community his record as a soldier is not
unknown, for he was the successor of the
gallant Colonel Oakford, aid there are
to-day in Scranton and vicinity not less
than one hundred and fifty "boys in blue"
who served in his immediate command.
and such men as Capt. James Archibald,
Capt. Richard Stillwell, Col. F. L. Hitch
cock, Lieut. Hicks Jay, and many others,
whether differing from him politically or
not, will bear evidence to his manhood,
honor and gallantry. The trumped-up
charges against Get?. Albright are the in
ventions of a Harrisburg newspaper, which
made a similar assault upon him and other
officers in his regiment while it was en
camped in Camp Curtin, and subsequently
apologized for the outrage. But there is
another reason beside the fact of Albright's
endorsement by the Labor Reformers for
the scurrilous attack upon him. In 1864,
when Buckalew had his Fishing Creek re
bellion under way, General Albright was
under the command of Major General
Conch, and that commander sent him to
Columbia county to attend to Mr. Bucka
lew's little game. Ile and Senator Buck
slew had a little unpleasantness at Blooms
burg, in which Albright denounced the
Senator as untrue to his country, and a
disgrace to the high body of which he was
I then a'member. This alone was sufficient
Ito incur the malignant hatred of every
copperhead in the Commonwealth. The
charge is made by these unscrupulous par
tisan papers that Albright bad done some
thing dishonorable in taking a bounty
when he raised his second regiment in
1864. The adjutant of his regiment, Maj.
W. D. Luckenbach, of Allentown, who,
though an opponent of Gen. Albright, po
litically, has the true manhood to dispose
effectually of the slander. Having failed
to establish that he had done anything
dishonorable, Albright's defamers changed
their story somewhat, and then charged
that be had entered the service as a sub
stitute for Mr. A. L. Mumper, of Auden
ried, this county. Mr. Mumper has pub
lished a letter denying this falsehood, and
stating that he had no substitute in the
service during the war.
So one after another of the miserable
falsehoods, invented by hate and conceived
in malice, have been disposed of, and in a
way that ought to cover with shame the
inventors of them.—Scranton Republican.
The Harrisburg Telegraph says
that the election of Charles R. Buckalew•
to the Gubernatorial chair of Pennsylva
nia, over that gallant soldier and faithful
public officer, Major General Hartranft,
would be a deliberate insult to every living
soldier within her borders, and an indigni
ty to her dead herccs.
Mr. Buckalew, a copperhead, a sympa
thizer with treason, by his opposition to
the Administration Of Abraham Lincoln,
gave aid and comfort to the Rebels, while
they were baring their bosoms to the bul
lets of the foe.
Gen. Hartranft was sharing their per
ils, and leading them through blood to vic
tory ; while Buckalew was organizing op
position in the North, and communicating
with the emissaries of their enemy.
Even when the State was invaded—
when her homes were being desolated—
when every true bosom within her limits
was fired with patriotic determination, and
rallying to her defense, Chas. R. Bucka
lew, a man whom his State had honored
with high positions, never uttered oqe
word of cheer to loyal soldiers, or of defi
ance to their foes. Shame upon Pennsyl
vania should she reward the traitor, and
condemn the neno.
Now, Let us have the Truth ,
There is a significant reticence on the
part of the sorehead and copperhead jour
nals in coming to an explanation and de
fence of the vile and venal record of Mr.
Charles R. Buckalew.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Buckalew
was elected to the Legislature as the counsel
I and representative of the Reading Railroad
Company, and that, as a legislator, he has
steadily and studiously guarded and pro
moted the interests of the McCalmonts and
the rest of the English stockholders in that
British corporation.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Bucka
lew is the Reading Railroad candidate fbr
Governor of Pennsylvania; that he was
nominated by the same Convention that
nominated Franklin B. Gowan, President
of the Reading Railroad, for Delegate at
Large to the Constitutional Convention,
and by the same party that seeks to make
Receiver of Taxes of this city, Mr. Henry
G. Gowan, another member of the same
family, Ring and influence.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Bucka
lew, as a legislator, in open antagonism to
old' established and clearly Democratic
principles, has advocated and sustained
"special legislation" in the interest of
moneyed monopolies and corrupt corpora
tions, by which and through which bribery
has been encouraged and venality prosper
ed at the Capitol of this Commonwealth.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Bucka
lew, favored and was ready to support
Alexander K. McClure' spet project to steal
Nine Millions of State Bonds from the
State Treasury in the interest of the Penn
sylvania Railroad Ring, the same to be
replaced by worthless rubish to the same
amount, consisting of bonds of unbuilt and
bogus roads, destitute alike of either cap
ital or character, the project falling through
the exposures begun and continued by the
Sunday Trancript.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Bucka
lew fathered Alexander K. McClure's
rascally attempt at public robbery, known
as the Chambersburg Three Million steal,
by which that sum in dollars was to be
bagged by legislative act from the State
Treasury for distribution among needy and
seedy Rebel sympathizers in Franklin
county. Charles R. Buckalew being the
chairman of the committee having it in
charge, and voting to include the disloyal
with the loyal in this distribution of plund
er ; the infamous scheme only falling by one
sterling Democratic vote and that vote not
his, it being a part of the scheme that the
measure was to be bought through like
any article of vulgar merchandise.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Bucka
lew was not true to his country in her time
of trial in that he never uttered one brave
word for the Union of our Fathers, or in
behalf of the sterling men of Pennsylvania
who were laying down their lives that the
Government might live.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Bucka
lew, in the most critical period of that
fearful time, did countenance and fail to
oppose the Fishing Creek conspiracy to
deter enlistments, and that an order for his
arrest for disloyalty was prepared by Gen.
Couch and only withheld from execution
by the misguided importunities of the
then State authorities.
It is charged, and we challenge success
ful contradiction, that Charles R. Bucks
lew, during the war, was in direct commu
cation with Rebel emissaries, holding
conference with the scoundrel Molcombe,
whose mission it was, in the language of
Jeff. Davis, to "carry the war where food
for the sword and torch await our (Rebel)
armies in the densely populated cities
* * * which took years of industry and
millions of money to build."
It is charged, and we challenge successful
contradiction, that Charles R. Buckalew,
now so tenacious as to the State Treasury,
refused to aid Gov. Curtin in securing the
repayment to the State of the money actu
ally spent in sending unmustered troops to
Gettysburg, where hundreds were slain in
defence of the Commonwealth and the
country—the same being six hundred and
sixty-seven thousand dollars—and that he
treated the claim with contempt and the
State officers with contumely.
It is charged, and we challengesuccessful
contradiction, that Charles R. Buckalew,
for reasons that will be manifest to the
most ordinary understanding and for rea
sons that are certainly well unlerstood by
himself, is supported and defended by
Evans, Payne, Miller, Forney, and every
scoundrel who shared in the foul fraud by ,
which the State of Pennsylvania was rob
bed of five thousand dollars, and that he
is opposed by Ilartranft, who exposed the
infamous transaction, and by Hartranft's
friends, who are etermined that the
scanadlous truth shall not only be laid bare
as to all of them, but that every one en
gaged in that flagrant canspiracy and di
vision ofplundsr shall be exposed, arraigned
convicted and punished for their infamous
crime.
The above charges, touching Charles R.
Buckalew's official career, we are prepared
to maintain and sustain, in a lawfully con
stituted Court of this Commonwealth and
before the people. They are charges that
cannot be or ought not to be shirked, as
they have been; or left unanswered, as
they are likely to be. They are charges
that come home to every true and honest
man in Pennsylvania, and as they are
successfully answered so ought the popular
verdict in October to be. If the war was
"a failure," as Democrats like Buekalew
assert, and if the the lion-hearted Demo
crats and Republicans who gave up their
lives to Freedom, "died in vain," as the
Rebel sympathizers declare, the short and
sure way of fixing the fact lies in Bucka
lew's election. There is no use in beating
about the bush in the business, nor is it
worth while for either blockheads, sore
heads or copperheads to deal in empty
humbug. Let them come to the point.
Let them dare answer the allegations and
specifications touching Buckalew, or let
him. dare answer them himself. We want
no side issue no meaningless asseverations
as to this, that or the other man, men,
measure or mendacious matter of any kind,
color or description ; but we do want a fair,
square and fair answer, in point andin
detail, as to the honesty, patriotism, and,
if need be, personal and political purposes,
practices and proclivities, past and present,
of the immaculate" Charles R. Buckalew.
Let us have the trutlf now, and the whole
truth. Answer the indictment NOW.-
Phila. Sunday Transcript.

did all he could to nominate Horace Gree
ley ! Will you reward him for selling out
your party ?
NO. 38
General Allen Vindicated,
As the Democratic papers are sorely ex
ercised over the prospect of HARTLEY
being terribly beaten by General ALLEN,
and as they continually charge the Repub
lican candidate with dishonesty, which
none but knaves will assort, we copy the
following resolutions, framed and passed
unathnously by a Democratic meeting, iu
Warren county, on the evening of the 24th
ultimo. DAVID BEATTY, ReQ., presided,
with MATHEW Simpson, as Vice president,
and JACOB OFFERLEs and THEODORE
HULL, Secretaries, all well-known and 'in
fluential Democrats. The resolutions passed
without a dissenting voice, are as follows :
Rsolved, That we, life-long Democrats
of Warren county, and neighbors of Gen
eral Allen, do most cheerfully bear testi
mony to his excellence as a citizen, and
most decidedly dissent from and disappro
bate the slanders being hurled against him
by the partisan press. Knowing him from
his boyhood, we do not credit the charges
made against him, but believe them the
offspring of political malice, and disappoint
ed ambition.
Resolved, That while entirely differing
from him in politics, and being in favor of
Greeley and Buckalew, wo do not feel that
political success should be obtained at the
price of the fair fame of any candidate,
and we therefore express our sentiments
most fully, and as we think in the most
Democratic manner, when we say that
trumped up charges, unsubstantiated by any
evidence, are not and ought not to be con
sidered as of any value whatever, against
any candidate, but in the case of General
.11llen it is most especially unjust, as without
money or influential friends, he has risen to
distinction, and his whole life has proven
his energy, his abilityand his fidelity to every
trust or business which has been placed upon
him or in which he has been engaged. He
is almost the first in every charitable enter
prise and is emphatically the poor man's
friend.
Resolved, That in giving expression to
our sentiments, we believe there are hun
dreds of our neighbors who will agree with
us, and who, while repudiating the calum
nies heaped on General Allen, will vote the
balance of the Democratic and Liberal
ticket, from President down to county
auditor.
Such is the testimony of General AL
LEN'S Democratic neighbors, and it out
weighs all the contemptible and malignant
efforts of the GREELEY papers to injure
him in the opinions of all right-minded
men: If it were possible for Democratic
ediMirs to appreciate their own littleness
and meanness in the estimation of the peo
ple, they would slink abashed before the
withering reproof administered them by
the members of their own party in Warren
county. Bat they will shut eyes to this
evidence from honest men who have known
Gen. ALLEN from childhood, and having
a stock of falsehoods, on hand, will persist
in using them until the close of the cam
paign. With their a
ally, FORNEY,
they may heap abuse and slanders upon
him from this time until then, but it will
be filth thrown in vain. They cannot be
foul a character so clean, a reputation for
integrity so irreproachable, and a record
so honorable. The people of Pennsylvania
cannot, will not elect a man like HARTLEY,
the friend of the rebellion and the close
sympathizer with red-handed treason.
They want honest, efficient and loyal men
in the high offices of the Commonwealth,
and they will choose to fill them, in October,
with Generals HARTRANFT, ALLEN and
ULYSSES MERCER by crushing majorities.
—Pittsburgh Dispatch.
Keep it Before the People,
That the Philadelphia and Reading R. R.
Company BOUGHT BUCHALEW'S NOMINA
TION OVER GEO. W. CAss, and that this
purchased control of the Democratic con
vention is notorious, and has been denoun
ced by high Democratic authorities.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE,
that Buckalew attempted to destroy the
usefulness of the bill to secure safety to
miners, and DID DEFEAT a supple
-went intended to give that law immediate
force and complete effect to save the lives
of the LABORING MEN:
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE,
that in the Senate of the United States
HE NEVER GAVE A VOTE—nev
er spokes word that can be tortured into
the appearance of support of onr soldiers'•
or in opposition to the monstrous and
wicked Rebellion waged , to destroy our
country.
AND DO NOT FORGET, that Buck
