These startling headings suggest,
al themselves to us as we mentally
asked the question, What do those
of our patrons mean, who make no
effort to pay ? A short time ago we
sent out an even 400 duns, not one
of them for less than $4. The re
sponse was scarcely enough to pay
the postage. What on earth are we
to do ? We can't buy paper, furnish
labor, pay postage, rent, and the
Lord only knows what all, without
money. Must we shut up our es
tablishment because we cannot get
enough ready cash to keep it run
ning ? There are hundreds who
owe us a mere trifle of from two to
ten dollars that would put us out of
all embarrassment if they would on
ly pay up. We appeal to you to do
it. Do not pay all other debts and
leave your printing bill stand until
the publishers are ruined by your
dereliction. It pains us to write so
wickedly, but every other expedient
has failed, and now to evade the
declaration of war, PAY UP!
REPUBLICANS, arouse from your leth
argy to( save the State.
Tas i)ewocrats expect to walk over the
course this fall. Don't leave them do it.

Garfield, of Ohio, for the same office.
HON. tIGHN W. FORNEY, who founded

and who continued to publish it ever since
its establishment, 'ld it, a week or two
since, to th- Messrs. Nevin, who assumed

He curries ith him the well-wishes of
every member of I,ne fraternity in the coun•
try. Long 'lvy he survive. His succes
sors have our kindest and best wishes for
success in their extensive enterprise. May
they never regret the investment which
they have made.
WE are frequently asked what effect the
Greenback and Labor ticket will have upon
the old parties in this county. We have
invariably answered that, in all probability.
both parties would lose about equally.—
But we are invariably reminded that the
Democrats will shout for Greenbacks and
Labor Reform until they come to vote and
then they will vote the Democratic ticket.
The men who will do ibis are not honorable
men, trod do not deserve the sympathy of
those who really desire the welfare of the
workingmen. We can make due allow
ance for a laboring wan, who believes that
the success of the Republican or Demo
cratic ticket is essential to his prosperity,
but the scoundrel who bellows one thing
to deceive some innocent person, and votes
the opposite, is a fraud of the basest kind.
Such practices deserve to be reprobated.
'furs result of the election in Ohio en
thusad the Democrats, fur a mail or two,
and then the enthusiasm weHt down to
zero, if not considerably below it. There
isn't much in this campaign to make it
lively. But we urge our Republican
friends to make all out of it tln - t they can.
Be up and doing. Do not wait for your
fieiirtbors to act. Go to work yourselves
and work with a will. If something is
fist done to stem the tide the Democracy
will walk over the course without en
countering decent opposition. This will
saver do. The Republican party cannot
*ford it. Suppose you are dissatisfied
with the policy of the President, which
you believe is handing you over to the
Democrats bodily, don't let it be done.—
Strike for the Republican party. Strike
out from the shoulder. Let the blows
fall thick and fast. Rally around the old
flag ! Go in and win !
THE FOLLIES OF MEN.
All men have not been born fools, but
it is extremely doubtful whether there has
not been a time, in every prominent man's
career, that he has been a foot. Thi s
is the opinion of the world, and as the ag
gregated opinion of mankind, is worthy of
decent respect.. It is sad to think that
your idea of perfect manhood way any
time be a fit subject for a lunatic asylum,
but so it is. We have seen any number
of reputed wise men who have done the
most stupid things. Perhaps others have
seen the same weakness in us and remark
ed our follies. It is only an evidence that
we have not the power "to see ourselves as
others see us." Politicians generally make
the biggest fools of themselves. There is
a certain amount of vanity enters into the
composition of a politician that inflates
and befuddles him, and he becomes as
blind as a bat. and as stupid as an owl. All
the sharp, keen, close, careful characterie.
tics which mark the ordinary business man
forsake him, and like a great lubberly
booby as be is, he tumbles into the first
pit that is dug for him. Overweening
confidence is what does the business. He
imagines himself omnipotent. * He flatters
himself that he knows it all. He overrides
and discards the small things of life which
form the integral parts of the great whole.
His inordinate ambition and self import
mice prompt him to disregard the rights
of others, who make little show as the
world goes, little remembering that all
these little single acts may some day ag
gregate a mountain of opposition that may
send an avalanche that must ho sure to
bury him and his friends in one common
grave. How often have we seen men
puffed up with the vanities of life, swelled
up out of all proportion, disdain the kind
offices of some one whom they believed was
not essential to them, and how often have
we seen Mazeppa return "with twice five
thousand horse" and leave scarce a vestige
of their former self. Remember
"There never vet was human power
Which couid evade, if unforgiven,
The patient search and vigil lung
Of him who treasures up a wrong."
- - EDITOR
We have known men high up in the
councils of the nation to disregard the
small voice and feeble pen of a constituent
and to day they languish in a well merited
obscurity. We have seen men bid defi
ance to some one that they believed pow
erless to do them harm and they passed to
the rear and fill their place regretting that
their follies consigned them to such pre
mature decay. Men have passed before
us in review who have ignored their neigh
burs, outraged every sense of propriety,
and brought down upon themselves the
curses and the contempt of their fellows.
For a time they bid defiance, but it was
only the flush of madness. A day comes
and they pass away unwept, unhonored
and unsung.
The "Ales of this life are innumerable.
We cannot enumerate them all. No man can
afford to he a brute, and this is what every
selfish man is. He only wants the .cave,
a dress of skins, and to saunter forth and
seize upon his neighbor's offspring, who
wander too far from their den, and carry
them to his retreat and roast and eat them.
The melfish man and the primeval wan are
on - the same in spirit. All follies
ark am selfishness. Envy and jealousy
belong to the same category but they ere
not as prominent as the former,
Why cannot men be governed by a true
sense of justice ? Every sensible man
ought to know that every unkind, ungen
erous, selfish act is only lent. It is only
a question of time when it will be returned
with interest. In this life there is nothing
so sure as retributory justice. A man may
win and flourish for a time, but as sure as
the sun shines and earth moves, just so
sure is he to have 'fleeted out to him in
this life, according to his own measure.
Look around you and contemplate the con
dition of affairs, and it is written in letters
as brilliant as the stars in Orion, that such
is the case. And it will be and ought to
be the case until Time ceases to roll his
mea.F.ured wheels
AFTER reading the last Monitor's com
ments on the visit to the Governor of three
of the applicants, who desire to fill the
vacancy created by the death of L. M.
Stewart, esq., we feel it incumbent upon
us to rise and explain. We were informed,
on Saturday evening. that a petition was
already in circulation praying the appoint
ment of a successor. On Monday morning
before we were prepared to take any steps
looking to the presentation of our case we
learned that a large number of members
of the Bar and private eitisens had already
signed petitions. We regarded the haste,
under the circumstances, as being in ex
tremely bad taste, and if we wanted to
succeed it could only be by securing a sus
pension of judgment; and for this purpose
we wet,t, to Harrisburg. We are, how
ever, not prepared to call the haste of which
we complain "indecent haste," as many
have pronounced it. Far from it. To the
vigilant creditor belongs the spoils, and we
do Lot see why this should not as well ap
ply to offices. They are regarded, to some
extent t spoils—party spoils. The "King
never dies—long live the King." An
office cannot be closed every day in the
year, because an officer dies each succeed
ing day. The business of the public must
be transacted let those die who way. A
decent respect to the memory of the de
cedect is proper, but. asking, in behalf of
the public, to fill the vacancy occasioned by
his death, is no disrespect, whether it is
done in an hour or a month afterwards.—
The business of the office must go on and
the dead man has nothing further to do
with it. When the President dies the
next hour. if be is near at hand, the Vice
President is sworn in. No one considers
this any disrespect. Business is business.
THE newspapers do not appear to corn
prebend that an important election is corn
ing off this fall. They are as barren of
election enthusiasm as a patent outside is
of freshness. It is time to let loose the
dogs of war or there will be no music in
the air this fall. Go in, lemons, if you do
get squeezed.

TO THE REPUBLICANS OF PENN-
SYLVANIA.
11 EADQUARTERS REPUBLICAN SrATIi
COMMITTEE, PHILADELPHIA, Oa. 10,
1877.—0ur party has suffered an apparent
disaster in Ohio. The result his only
local and temporary skrnificanco. The
Republicans of Pennsylvania will be neither
disarmed nor dismayed. The great and
patriotic record of the party in the past is
not to be obscured, nor will it be arrested
in its progress until it shall have finished
its mission.
Our November contest involves State
questions of great importance. A Judge
of the Supreme Court is to be elected.—
For this position you have presented the
faithful incumbent of that high office,
Hon. James P. Sterrett, a candidate of un
doubted learning, ability and integrity,
who has already fully illustrated these
qualities by long service on the bench.
The financial agents of the State are to
be elected, and in presenting Hon. John
A. M. Passmare for Auditor General and
Capt. William B. Hart for State Treasurer,
you have chosen gentlemen who combitie
every qualification necessary for the com
petent discharge of their duties, and the
record of whose private and public lives is
unsullied.
In this branch of your interests your
party has given the highest evidences of
skill and honesty. Since your advent to
power you have reduced the State debt
from $41,000,000 in 1861, to $22,000,000
at the present time, which assets maturing
and pledged fur the payment of the State
debt amounting to $8,000,000. leaving a
net irdebtedness of only $14,000,000 to
be provided for, showing an actual reduc
tion under Republican administration of
$27,000,000. We have given the most
unquestioned assurances that our nominees
will go on with the policy of retrenchment
and financial honesty. At this day not a
dollar of State taxes is levied upon the
real estate in the Commonwealth.
In national matters it remains to be de
monstrated that the equal rights of all
have been completely vindicated. It is
not yet true that a Republican in the south
enjoys all the political privileges of a Dam
ocrat in the north. The great Republican
party, either in this State or in the nation,
will not have closed its labors or accom
plished its purposes until all the rights
guaranteed by the Constitution of the
United States are practical filets, fully in
corporated into the daily life of the people
north and south alike.
The coming struggle in Pennsylvania is
of supreme importance to the welfare of
the people, who through the busy efforts
of demagogues, have been kept uneasy and
restless. Much as we deplore the prostra
tion of industrial interests in the land, we
remind you that this condition of things
is not the result of governmental policy,
and that England and the other nations of
Europe are al! suffering in like manner
and from like cause. The constantly in
creasing signs of freshly awakened pros
perity show that the Republican adminis
tration of affairs during an important
crisis has been prudent and sagacious.—
Should the continuance of this wise Re
publican control be assured by your votes
the fact cannot be doubted that the time
has nearly arrived when, by the laws of
trade, the greenback dollar will be the
equivalent of a gold dollar, and the laborer
will receive for his day's labor the dollar
which promises its full exchangeable value,
And thus labor and capital will - and full
employment.
To those of our fellow citizens who havo
been misled by false pretence and by in
genious sophistry, and who have wavered
in their allegiance to the party which has
been the constant champion of American
labor, we appeal for a critical judgment of
the insincerity of the professions of those
agitators in the Democratic party who,
claiming to represent labor, have uniformly
betrayed it at the polls. In Ohio, as on
former occasions, the only honest adher
ents of the so called "side issues" were
drawn from the Republican ranks. De
ceived by false protestations and betrayed
by an insincere alliance they have not
aided their own cause but have placed the
garlar.ds of victory at the feet of their
worst enemies, The lesson of Ohio should
teach the avoidance of so fatal a •blunder
in Pennsylvania.
The Republican voters of the State must
recognize their duty and go ~promptly to
its discharge. We call upon you to act
in your townships and wards. The work
to be done is to poll the Republican vote ;
it is your work and must be accomplished
by active and earnest effort.
Wm. P. WILSON,
Chairman Republican State Coin
JNO. A. SMULL, Secretary.
President's Message.
Fellow Citizens of the Senate and Ijouse
Representatives: The adjournment of the last
congress, without making appropriation for
the support of the army for the present fiscal
year, has rendered necessary a suspension of
payments to the officers and men of the sums
due them for services rendered after the 30th
day of June last.
The army exists by virtue of statutes which
prescribe its numbers, regulate its organiza
tion, and which fix the pay of its officers and
men, and declare their right to receive the
same at stated periods. These statutes, how
ever, do not authorize the payment of the
troops in the absence of specific appropriations
therefor.
The constitution has wisely provided that
no money shall be drawn from the treasury
but in consequence of appropriations made by
law, and it has also been declared by statute
that no department of the Government shall
expend in any oue fiscal year any sum in ex
cess of appropriations made by congress for
that fiscal year.
We have, therefore, an army in service
authorized by law and entitled to be paid, but
no funds available for that purpose. It may
also be said, as an additional incentive to
prompt action by congress, that since the
commencement of the fiscal year the army,
though without pay, has been constantly and
actively employed in arduous and dangerous
service, in the performance of which both
officers and men have discharged their duty
with fidelity and courage, and without com
plaint,
These circumstances, in my judgment, con
stitute an estraordinary occasion requiring
that congress be convened in advance of the
time prescribed by law for your meeting in
regular session. The importance of speedy
action upon this subject on the part of con:,
gress is so manifest that I venture to suggest
the propriety of making the necessary ap
propriations for the support of the army for
the current year at its present maximum nu
mercial strength of 25,000 men, leaving for
future consideration all questions relating to
an increase or decrease of the number of en
listed men.
In the event of the reduction of the army
by subsequent legislation during the fiscal
year, the excess of the appropriation could
nut be expended, and in the event of its en
largement the additional sum required for the
payment of the extra force could be provided
in due time,
It would be unjust to the troops now in
service, and whose pay is already largely in
arrears, if payment to them should be further
postponed until after congress shall have con
sidered all the questions likely to arise in the
effort to (ix the proper limit to the strength
of an army. . _ .
Estimates of appropriations for the support
of the military establishment for the fiscal
year ending June 30, 1878, were transmitted
to congress by the former secretary of the
treasury at the opening of its session in De
cember last. These estimates, modified by
the present secretary so as to conform to
present requirements,are now renewed,amount
ing to $32,436,564.98, and having been trans
mitted to both houses of congress, are sub
mitted for your consideration.
There is also required by the navy depart
ment $2,003,861.27. This sum is made up of
$1,446,668.16 due to officers and enlisted men
for the last quarter of the last fiscal year,
$311,953.50 due for advances made by the fis
cal agent of the government in London for the
support of the foreign service, $50,000 due to
the naval hospital fund $150,000 due for ar
rearages of pay to officers, and $45,219.58 fur
the support of the marine corps.
There will also be needed an appropriation
of $262,534.22 to defray the unsettled expenses
of the United States courts for the fiscal year
ending June 30, last, now due, to attorneys,
clerks, commissioners and marshals and for
rent of court rooms, the support of prisoners,
and other deficiencies.
A part of the building of the interior de
partment was destroyed by fire on the 24th of
last month. Some immediate repairs and
temporary structures have, in consequence,
become necessary, estimates for which will be
transmitted to congress immediately and an
appropriation of the requisite funds respect
fully recommended.
The secretary of the navy will communicate
to congress, in connection with the estimates
for the appropriations for the support of the
army for the current fiscal year, estimates for
such other deficiencies in the different branches
of the public service as require immediate ac
tion and cannot, without inconvenience, be
postponed until the regular session.
I take this opportunity also to invite your
attention to the propriety of adopting at your
present session the necessary legislation to
enable the people of the United States to par
ticipate in the adiantages of the international
exhibition of agriculture, industry and the fine
arts which is to be held in Paris in 1878, and
in which this government has been invited by
the government of France to take part.
This itivitaiton was communicated to this
government in May, 1876, by the minister of
France at this capital, and a copy thereof was
submitted to the proper committees of con
gress at its last Session, but no action was
taken on the subject. The department of
state has received many letters from various
parts of the country expressing desire to par
ticipate in the exhibition, and numerous ap
plications of a similar nature have also been
made at the United States legation at Paris.
The department of state has also received
official advice of the strong desire on the part
of the French government that the United
States should participate in this enterprise,
and space has hitherto been and still is
reserved in the exhibition buildings for the
use of exhibitors from the United States, to
the exclusion of other parties who have been
applicants therefor.
In order that our industries may be properly
represented at the exhibition, an appropriation
will be needed fur the payment ()fooleries and
expenses of commissioners, for the transpor
tation of goods and fur other purposes iii con
nection with the object in view, and as May
next is the time fixed fur the opening of the
exhibition, if our citizens are to share the
advantages of this international competition
for the trade of other nations, the necessity of
immediate action is app .rent.
I have felt that prompt action by congress
in accepting the invitation of the government
of France is of so much interest to the people
of this country, and so suitable to the cordial
relations beto nen the governments of the two
countries, that the subject might properly be
presented fur attention at, your present session.
To enable the United States to co-operate
in the international exhibition, which was
held in Vienna ia 1873, congress then passed
a joint resolution making no appropriation of
$200,000 and authorizing . the President to
appoint a certain nuitibei of praetical artisans
and scientific men, who should attend the
exhibition and report their proceedings and
observations to hint, Provision was also
made for the appointment of a number of
honorary commissioners.
The Government of Sweden and Norway has
addressed an official invitation to this govern
ment to take part in the international prison
congress, to be held at Stockholm next year,
The problem which the congress proposes to
study, "How to diminish crime," is one in
which all civilized nations have an interest in
common, and the congress of Stockholm seems
likely to prove the most important convention
ever held for the study of this grave question,
Uuder authority of a joint resolution of
congress, approved Febuary 16, 1875, a com
mission was appointed by my predecessor to
represent the United States upon that occasion
and the priSQO congress having been, at the
earnest desire of the government,
postponed to 1878, his commission was renew
ed by me.
Au appropriation of $B,OOO was made in the
sundry civil service act of 1875, to meet the
expenses of the commissioner. I recommend
the appropriation of that sum fur the same
purpose, the former appropriations having
been covered into the treasury, and being no
longer available for the purpose without fur
ther action by congress.
The subject is brought to your attention at
this time in view of circumstances which
render it highly desirable that the commis
sioner should proceed to the discharge of his
important duties immediately.
As the several acts of congress providing
for detailed reports from the different depart
ments of the government require their submis
sion at the beginning of the regular annual
session, I defer until that time any further
reference to subjects of public intererest.

Our New York Letter.
NeW YORK, Oct. 17, 1877.
Political—The Election—Joe Coburn—Haab:cm
POLITICAL
The ruieting of the supporters of the President,
and, consequently, the opponents of Senator Conk
ling, at Co.,per Institute, was important only as
it shows the drift of public sentiment. The emi
nently respectable gentlemen who sat upon the
platform and applauded the righteous utterances
of Mr. Curtis, believe in him and his ideas, and
took the trouble to come up to the institute to show
that they did 00, but for all it will amount to they
might as well have stayed at home. For they do
not represent anything but the respectability of
the party—they do not represent at all the work
ing, moving force. Mr. William E. Dodge will
resolve and give money to further the success of
his political principles but he has never yet taken
the trouble to see how his porter votes, and when
it comes to actual work the shances are that his
porter controls more votes than he does. This
class of men look exceedingly well on platforms,
and their names have a mouth-filling sound, but
they count very little in the actual business of a
campaign. Hence, Conkling will heat them out
of sight. He captured the convention—he will run
the State.
THE OHIO ELECTION
created a profound sensation here. To begin with,
the supporters of the President's policy hoped that
his own State would give him a verdict so em
phatic as to give them something to go on in the
other States, especially as the issue was made more
clearly in that State than in any other, except
New York. To have a Democrat elected by a ma
jority of 30,000, is a little too much. It is true,
the Republicans stayed at home, but why did
they ? There is but one answer to it—they desired
to rebuke—well, they are not satisfied. It is a
fact that the order prohibiting of f ice-holders from
taking part in political movements, hurt the tick
et, but that is not enough to account for the over
whelming defeat. And then lowa comes slowly
in, with a victory that just escapes defeat, which
must be charged up to the new departure. What
it will be a year hence, remains to be seen,—it
cannot be denied that up to to-day, the Republi
cans of the West have set the veal of condemnation
upon the President's policy.
THE WO.IKINGMEN's MOVEMENT,
the legitimate outgrowth of the strikes of last sum
mer, had something to do with the result, and it is
causing a❑ uneasy feeling. The experiment was
tried in Toledo, Ohio, and Blanton Duncan—the
demagogue of Louisville, was se❑t up to that city
to organise them. They put their ticket in the
field, and without a paper of any kind to advocate
their claims, with very few meetings. and no ex
penditure of money at all, they electeci their entir3
ticket, casting more votes 4... .en both the other par
ties together. It was a aiol unexpected result.
In that city the Democracy encouraged the move
ment, hoping it would take enough votes from the
Republican candidates to defeat them, but they
bad no idea whatever that the movement was
strong enough to carry its yininees. Yet it did,
and showed a vitality that was a terror to the old
parties. And what makes this Toledo election of
so much interest here, is the fact that the working
men of New York have just held their convention
at Troy, and have enunciated doctrines and dog
mas that are extreme to a degree, and the politi
cians and people fear th it, as they carried Toledo
BO easily, they may develop strength enough to
mash things in New York. They don't take much
time to organize, and their methods are very sim
ple. They pull every workingman, and the hang
ers-on who are ready for anything that is new,
into a hall and initiate them. Then, when the
day of election comes, each one is ready to be vo
ted. As some of the utterances of the Troy labor
ing men are, if not incendiary, at least capable of
being twisted into incendiarism, then - , is a great
deal of UIIPaAifICAA expressed.
THE FATE or 7IIt PUGILISTS.
Pugilism has been on the wane here fur a great
many years. The English bruisers have nut suc
ceeded in awakening any enthusiasm user their art,
and the law has dealt roughly with them. Joe
Coburn in about the last of the lot, and he has
gone to the penitentiary fur ten yearn. Joseph
took it into his head to shout an itileer, and the
court sent him up for ten years. His friends
treated the sentence a• a joke, aid appealed, but
to his surprise, the court above held the sentence
to be proper, and the short-haired era mourning
the fate of their frrend. It is an encouraging fact
that the roughs have lost a great deal of their in
fluence in this city within the past few years, and
they are getting to be ra' her shy of knocking down
and dragging out. The police is better than it
ever was, and the downfall of Tweeilisin left the
fancy without the protection it had sheltered itself
behind so long. It is kept fairly under, and only
shows itself in the very worst parts of the city.
EITSINESS
Still continues brisk. The revival, I am happy
to say, is not temporary but is genuine. There is
an actual betterment in all lines of trade, and a
more healthy feeling than we have had for years.
The leading jobbers report sales largely in excess
of lest year, and it is continuing right along into
the cold months. There id not so heavy a busi
ness being dune in fancy goods, and,goods of mere
luxury, but there is a tremendous business in the
solid necessities. The West is now here in force,
and the number will be largely increased next
week. And wha' pleases everybody the bills
are being paid. Collections are very good, and
altogether, the outlook is encouraging. I took a
little run up through New England last week, and
found the manufacturers in better spirits than
they have been fur some time. They are cleaning
out the old stocks very fast, and are putting goods
of recent manufacture on the market. The mills
are running in many places full time, and at fair
wages, when the drop in everything is taken into
account. It may he safely said that the good
times are hero again. We want just a little more
confidence to pnt us on good, high and dry ground
again. PIETRO.
