AMONG the notable useful working members of the late legislature none de serves better than the veteran editor of the Delaware County Republican, Y. S. Walter, esq. As faithful, wise and care ful in the House as be has always been in the editorial chair, his constituents will hardly fail to secure his services again, especially after the experience of profes• sional politicians in the Bullard case. Ma. WALLACE'S platform declares in favor of "the dethronement of tkose in power." A very earnest and determined 1 effort was made by nearly one-half of the members of the Pittsburgh convention to oust Mr. Wallace from his high position of dictatorship, but they were powerless against his self-assumed authority. It is he who should first be dethroned, and if there are none in his own party who can do so, the Republicans must do the work for them. DvsocaATlc despatches from Washing ton City are authority for the statement that the Platform adopted by the Pitts. burgh convention was prepared by Senator Wallace in Washington and read to sever al gentlemen there before he left for Pitts burgh. Mr. Wallace has established a reputation for Away& having the docu ments ready in time. He is almost as prompt now as when he furnished the nat uralisation papers not many years ago. It was not necessary, however, that the Plat form should bear any special evidences of old age, and it was not, therefore, colored with coffee, whatever other marks of an tiquity it may have about it. Any papers requiring the tinge of "the sear and yellow leaf" will be duly prepared and produced when needed to manufacture a majority for Mr. Wallace's ring ticket. EDITORIAL ASSISTANCE. The approaching campaign promises to be one of unusual excitement, and both parties will fight it with a vigor rarely witnessed in political contests. As our business will preveat us from giving that attention to the campaign which its im portance demands, we have secured the services of MILTON S. LYTLE, lESQ , to assist us in the editorial management of the JOURNAL. Mr. LYTLE needs no in troduction to the public. He has been so long engaged in the fields of literature and politics as to be well and favorably known. To the readers of the JOURNAL he is es pecially familiar, having been a frequent contributor to its columns during the last ten years. As a Republican he is firm and unwavering, his liervices to the party having been such as to secure the highest appre ciation. In the great political battle just commenced, we expect, with his assistance, to place the JOURNAL in the front rank. GENERAL HOYT. Henry Martin Hoyt, the Republican candidate for Governor, is descended from a family belonging to the early settlers of the Wyoming Valley. He was born in 1830, graduated at Williams College in 1849; in 1850 he opened a select school at Tonawanda, which he conducted for a year, when he was elected Professor of Mathematics in Wyoming Seminary, which position he filled for two years. Subse quently he studied law in the office of the late Chief Justice George W. Woodward, at Wilkesbarre, and after a time passed in the South, entered the office of the Hon. Warren J. Woodward, now on the Su preme Court bench, with whom he remain ed until Mr. Woodward was called to the Bench in 1856. In the Fremont cam paign of that year Mr. Hoyt took an ac tive part, and then opened a law office in Wilkesbarre. He soon secured a large and lucrative practice, which was resumed after the war. In the summer of 1861, he was active in raising the Fifty-second Reg iment of Pennsylvania Volunteers, and in consideration of his services was commis sioned Lieutenant-Colonel by Governor Curtin. His regiment participated in the Peninsula campaign of 1862, and after wards was sent to the Department of the South. In the summer of 1863 Lieuten ant Colonel Hoyt was taken prisoner in an attack upon Fort Johnson, Charlestown harbor, and upon being exchanged, rejoin ed his regiment and remained with it un til near the close of the war. He was promoted to Colonel on January 9, 1864, and was mustered out of the service on November 5, 1864, on the expiration of his term, several months before the regi ment itself was mustered out. On March 18, 1865, he was breveted Brigadier Gen eral. During the year 1867 under an ap pointment from the late Governor Geary, he discharged the duties of Additional Law Judge of the Eleventh District, but at the close of that year was superseded by a Democrat, who had been elected by the people. In 1875 and 1876 Colonel Hoyt was Chairman bf the Republican State Committee. He was also one of the Dele gates at Large from this State to the Na tional Convention of 1876, at Cincinnati. General Hoyt is a lawyer of high standing and a man of very liberal culture, of fine presence and attractive address. Editor, SECRETARY OF INTERNAL AFFAIRS. The Democrats have placed J. Simpson Africa upon their ticket as their candidate for Secretary of Internal Affairs. They have not done this for the purpose of con ferring any special honor upon Hunting don county, as has been intimated by some who would like to make the impression here that Mr. Africa's candidacy has no political aspect, but because he has been a thorough, consistent and life long Demoerat. Had he been anything else he would not have been nominated by the Pittsburgh Convention. He will be supported by Democrats on account of his fealty to par ty, while in his efforts to get Republicans to vote for him be will keep politics steadily out of view. He will endeavor to prevail upon them to do what Demo crats never do, to ignore their party and their principles. If a citizen of Hunting don county had been placed upon the Re publican State ticket, would Democrats de sert their own candidate to vote for him ? No, they would rather oppose him the more bitterly and organize the more strong ly to defeat him. The application of the same rule by Republicans at this time is certainly a duty. Our experience within recent years in giving "complimentary votes" has been such as to make a repeti• tion of it very undesirable. We have been taught that it is unsafe to vote for Demo crats if we do not want them elected. To give Mr. Africa a majority in Huntingdon county, would endanger the success of our entire local ticket. He is the standard bearer about whom the Democrats will rally. Not one of them will desert him or any other candidate whose name may be upon their banner. He is to carry them to victory, if possible, not only to victory for himself, but for every one who may be associated with him upon the ticket. The ranks of the Democracy will be unbroken during the campaign, but they hope that Africa will be able to divide the Republi can column, and such a division once made, they will endeavor to put us to utter rout and discomfiture. Republicans should hold no intercourse with the enemy. Africa is the leader who is looked to for a successful campaign against us. AN ATTEMPT TO DECEIVE FARMERS. By a wise and economical management of the financial affairs of this Common wealth, a law was enacted a few years ago by a Republican Legislature and approved by a Republican Governor, relieving all real estate from taxation for State purposes. Notwithstanding this important measure to the direct advantage of land owners, an appeal has been made to farmers to join the National or Greenback party upon the ground that their interests have not been sufficiently taken care of by the Republi cans. The Greenbackers make a great noise about high taxation, and would like it to be believed that they will effect a change in this respect. So they will, as indicated by their Philadelphia platform, but the reverse of the one promised by their street-corner orators. Upon thi s subject they declare : "That we demand equal and just taxa tion of all property whatsoever, except that used by the federal government and held or used for government purposes." Equal taxation of all property means that farms, lots, houses, and other real estate shall bear a share of the public bur den. It would release personal property, money at interest, and the . corporations from the payment of a large portion of the State revenues and re-impose them upon farmers. This new party, while claiming to be the opponent of what it denounces as "corporate monopolies," demands just what those bodies desire, and would rob the State of one of the great benefits it derives from them, the means of paying the expenses of government. That plank in the Greenback platform must have been prepared by one of the great railroad kings and imposed upon the Convention. It is evident that the corporations have their emmissaries at work within the party and that they are controlling it. Farmers, are you willing that the State taxes shall be taken off of those who now pay them and placed again upon yourselves? This is the change the Nationalists of Pennsyl vania declare in favor of. Don't allow them to deceive you with any ether prom CORRUPTION. When it became known in Huntingdon county under what direction and auspices the Democratic campaign is to be con• ducted, it was at once recognized as a fact that the principal influence to be used is money. The belief that the canvass is to be but an effort to purchase victory is en tertained not by a few, but by the public generally, not by Republicans alone, but by Democrats. That the attempt is to be made to wrest this county from the Republicans by corrupt means is common talk upon the streets, and among all classes of people, and has been heard by all of our readers. The prevalence of such a belief is in itself demoralizing. It raises in the minds of purchasable men the expectation of being bought, and in honest and patriotic citizens it excites the fear that their exer tions in behalf of purity in politics and of a proper administration of public affairs are to be thwarted and defeated by means that are dangerous to the welfare of the country, and utterly destructive of all popular government. This fear, although occasion should never be given to arouse it, may after all be our salvation. Can it be possible that the people will permit the consummation of a scheme of which they are so fully forewarned ? Will they per mit Huntingdon county to be made a mar ket place in which votes are to be bought and sold, and the result of an important election determined by the number of voters who are willing to sell their suffrages This is not the cry of alarm raised at the eleventh hour before the election, but a warning, given at the very outset of the campaign. Of course the full purchasing power of the Democratic managers will not be developed until it can be done with greater safety and more certainty as to re sults than at present. The demands that will be made upon them by Democrats will have to be responded to. The mem bers of that party have bad their appetites sharpened by the prospects of spoils. They want office and money. The former can not be obtained until after the election, and are even then uncertain, and are too few in number to accommodate the large mass of expectants. Money can be dis. tributed much sooner and can be made to reach further. It will be looked for by men whose ambition does not lead to the desire for office, and must be given them to prevent dissatisfaction. The Democrats aro themselves demoralized by the expeota_ tions that have been held out to them.— We may hope it will require all the money they can raise to satisfy the cravings within their own party, and that none will be left to be used in new corruptions. CHAIRMAN QUAY. Although the appointment of a Chair man of the Republican State Central Com mittee has not yet:been announced, it is understood that Hon. M. S. Quay, of Phil adelphia, has been or will be selected for the position. We commend the wisdom that has led to this result. That gentle. man possesses in an eminent degree the qualities essential to an efficient and suc cessful Chairman. His knowledge of the politics of the State and of the leaders in all parties, and his ability to organize and conduct a campaign are unsurpassed and, perhaps, unequaled by those of any other of our public men. His appointment will strike terror into the ranks of the Democ racy. They know his energy and the thoroughness with which he does eve ry thing he undertakes, and they have no man that can cope with him or that can possibly prevent him from carrying the Republicans and their ticket to victory. THE CONSPIRACY. The Democratic Senator from Pennsyl vania is opposed "to any attack upon the President's title," but this will have very little effect in staying the revolutionary movement in the House. Potter's com mittee is proceeding to investigate the right of Mr. Hayes to his office as if Wal lace had been silent upon the subject The Representatives of the Democracy are not likely to pay much attention to Sena torial opinion or dictation. They are working to unseat the President and usurp his office, while Mr. Wallace's object is to carry the election in Pennsylvania. The one regard the Presidency of the greater importance, the other the Governorship. Had Mr. Randall's ring controlled the Pittsburgh convention instead of Mr. `'Pal ace's, the platform would have been in greater harmony with the plans of the conspirators in Congress. JUDGE STERRETT. Hon. James P. Sterrett, the Republican candidate for Supreme Judge, has never aspired to or filled any other than a judi. cial position. Admitted to the bar in 1848, he commenced the practice of the liw in the following year at Pittsburgh. In January, 1862, he was appointed Presi dent Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny county, and in the fall of the same year was elected to the position for a full term of ten years. In 1872, he was elected without opposition. On the 26th of February, 1877, he was appointed by the Governor to the Associate Judgeship of the Supreme Court, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Hon. Henry W. Williams, and served th• balance of the term. He has never figured as a politician and will not do so to secure his election. DEMOCRATS AND TARIFF. The Democratic platform, which con sists almost entirely of abuse of the Re publican party, has nothing to say is re gard to the tariff but to attack the Repub lican record on that subject. It does not declare in favor of a tariff nor against Mr. Wood's bill, which would have been passed before this had there not been enough Re publicans in Congress to prevent it. They have had the power to delay the bill, but not to defeat it, and the Democrats are keeping it suspended over the country, ready to descend and destroy our business interests whenever the Republicans are unprepared to break its fall The Demo cratic policy upon the tariff question must be learned from the course of that party in the House of Representatives at Wash ington, where they have a majority, and not from the ambiguous declarations of their State' Convention. MR. DILL, the man whom the Pennsyl vania Democrats have nominated fur Gov. ernor in spite of Samuel J. Tilden and Samuel J. Randal!, refreshed the Conven tion which nominated him with a speech, in which he made the remark that the Republican party, when it came into power twenty years ago, "found this country with wealth generally diffused, with few mil lionaires, and no squallid poverty. As the result of its policy we now see at one end of society the nabob, at the other the tramp." Mr. Dill did not specify which end represented him, but that was not necessary. What he sighs for is the old times restored. With a few millionaires, but several millions of slaves ; with no nabob or tramp, but society with a slave holder at one end and a slave at the other, and a Northern Democratic party dancing about between the two, grateful and hap py with an occasional crumb from the nabob's table--.N. Y. Tribune. THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM. The harmonious (?) Democracy, led by Senator Wallace, the gentleman of coffee pot fame, assembled in Pittsburgh, last week, and after a two days' battle, during which many a chieftain's scalp lock was lifted, agreed upon and passed the follow ing platform : The Democracy of Pennsylvania unanimous ly declare : That the Republican party, its measures and its men, are responsible for the financial distress and that misery of want that now exists ; it has had control of the legislation of the country, and has enacted and perpetuated a policy that has enriched the few and impov erished the many ; its system and finance has been one of favor to moneyed monopoly, of unequal taxation, of exemption of classes, of high rates of interest, and of remorseless con tractions which has destroyed every enterprise that gave employment to labor; its present hold upon the federal power was secured by fraud, perjury and forgery; its laws are unjust and its practices immoral—they distress the people and destroy their substance. The only remedy for these evils in an entire ehange of policy and the dethronement of those in power. And we resolve that further contrac tion of the volume of the United States legal tender notes is unwise and unnecessary. They should be received for custom duties and re issued as fast as received. Gal, silver and United States legal-tender notes at par there with are just bases for paper circulation. The close connection of the federal government with the business interests of the people through national banks tends to monopoly and centralization; but in changing the system uniformity of notes, security of the noteholder and protection of the capital invested should be provided for. Treasury notes, issued in exchange for bonds hearing a low rate of interest, is the best form in which the credit of the government can be given to paper cur rency. Labor and capital have equal demands upon and equal responsibilities to law. Com merce and manufactures should be encouraged, so that steady employment and fair wages may be yielded to labor, whilst safety of investment and moderate returns for its use belong to capital. Violence or breaking of order in support of the real or supposed rights of either should be promptly suppressed by the strong arm of the law. The Republican party, by its legislation in 1872, which reduced the tariff upon oituminous coal from $1.25 to 75 cents per ton, and upon iron, steel, wools, metals, paper, glass, leather and all manufactures of each of them ten per cent., struck a fatal blow at the industries and labor of Pennsylvania. The public lands are the common property of the people, and they should not be sold to speculators nor granted to railroads or other corporations, but should be reserved as home steads for actual settlers. Our public debt should be held at borne, and the bonds representing it ought to be of small denominations, in which the savings of the masses may be safely invested. Thorough investigation into the electoral frauds of 1877 should be made ; fraud should be exposed, truth vindicated and criminals punished; but we oppose any attack upon the Presidential title as dangerous to our institu tions and fruitless in its results. The Republican party, controlling the legis lation of the State, has refused to execute many of the reforms of the new Constitution ; among other things it has neglected and re fused to compel the acceptance of all of its provisions by the corporations of the State ; to prevent undue and unreasonable discrimi nation in charges for the transportation of freight and passengers, and without abatement or drawback to any ; to give all equal mes,ns for transporting the raw material of the State in such manner and to such points as they may prefer ; and to publish in good faith monthly statements of where the money of the people was kept. The Republican party creates new offices and adds enormous perquisites to others, and fills them with favorites whose chief duty is to manage its political machinery. Its admin istration of the State government grows more expensive with each year of its rule. Legis lation has been directed by Republican lob byists, who in turn manipulate and control the nominations of the Republican party, and its candidates are the creation of a junta whose decrees are accepted as the irreversible mandates of absolute hereditary power. We denounce these methods, these measures and these men as unworthy the support of an honest and a free people, and we invite all, of every shade of political opinion, to unite with us in delivering the Commonwealth from their hateful rule.

DOCTORS GAVE HIM Up.—"ls it poE sible that Mr. Godfrey is up and at work, and cured by so simple a remedy ?"

Pierce's original method of distinguishing all forms of chronic disease without personal consultation. Some even suppose that he accomplishes this through clairvoyance, or some other species of pro fessional jugglery. All this is utterly false. He claims to determine disease by the rational methods of science only. Says Comely, in his Biographical Encyclopedia of New York State, speaking ofthis distinguished physician : "He perceived that in each of the natural sciences the investigator proceeds according to a system of signs. The geologist in his cabinet accurately determines and describes the cleft of rock, which he has• never seen, from the minute specimen on his table. And the chemist in his laboratory notes the con stituents of the sun with the same precision that he analyzes a crystal of rock salt. The analogous system developed by 1)r. Pierce in Medical Science is worthy of his genius, and has made his name justly celebrated." For a full explanation of this ingenious system of diagnosis, see th• People's Common Sense Medical Adviser, sent post paid, to any address on receipt ofone dollarand fifty cents. Address the author, R. V. Pierce, M. D., Buffalo, N. Y. The Antecedents of Disease. Among the antecedents of disease are inert ness in the ciaculation of the blood, an unna turally attenuated condition of the physique, indicating that the life current is deficient in nutritive properties, a wan, haggard look, inability to digest food, loss of appetite; sleep and strength, and a sensation of unnatural languor. All these may be regarded as among the indicia of approaching disease, which will eventually attack the system and overwhelm it, if it is not built up and fortified in advance.
