Greenbackers he is a Greenbacker—in a

Foust solicits your suffrages.
THULE seems to be a disposition on the
part of our contemporaries to open anew
the controversy of the "Special Printing
Act." That matter was settled last winter,
and we are content. We feel like letting
by-gones be by-gones.
WHEN you are asked to give Mr. Afri
ca a complimentary vote just ask if ho vo
ted for Mr. Fisher two years ago. Of
course he did no such thing. He never
voted for a Republican in his life, and no
Republican should vote for him.
REPUBLICANS, organize! Get up clubs
in every district in the county. Speer and
North, who are running the Democratic•
Greenback party are leaving nothing un
done to secure this county for the mongrel
ticket.
1F DILL was "a baby," as the Democrats
claim that he was, when he was a member
of the Know-Nothing party, what excuse
will they manufacture for J. Simpson Af
rica, who was a full-fledged man when he
was initiated a member of that organiza
tion ? Let us hear from you, gentlemen.
SoMe people think that because they
escape punishment for a year or two, for
crimes committed, they will be permitted
to escape altogether ; but they will wake
up one of these fine mornings and find
themselves in more trouble than they have
experienced for some time.
"FATHER" DOYLE persists in denying
that he ever compared the Democratic par.
ty to the place where they "don't rake up
fire at might." Will he deny that he said
in his speech in the Court House, a few
evenings since, that a certain institution
might go t,)—"that other place for all he
cared ?"
PETER HEaDrc is a candidate for the
Greenback nomination for Congress in the
Lycoming district, and he is a candidate
for the penitentiary in Lancaster county
for defrauding the,Columbia National Bank
out of a large sum of money. He is more
likely to be successful in Lancaster than in
Lycoming.
THE public debt statement for Septem•
ber shows a decrease in debt for the month
of $3,196,534 and the following balances
in the treasury : Currency, $1,972,563;
special fund for the redemption of fraction.
al currency, $10,000,000, special deposits
of legal tenders for the redemption of cer
tificates of deposit, $40,610,000 ; coin,
$232,659,649; including coin certificates,
$34,670,670 ; outstanding legal tenders,
$346,681,016.
MR. CALVIN declared in his speech in
this town : "I would not tell a lie." He
then went on to say : "In 1865 we had
nineteen hundred millions of circulating
medium." The report of the U. S. Treas
ury of June 30, 1865 shows that the total
amount ofoutatanding currency at that date
was $983,318,685.76. Calvin can hit it
within ten hundred millions. This is a
sample of the slush the greenbackers are
fed on.
DEMOCRATIC DEMAGOGISM.
When the greenbacks were issued as a
war measure, the Democrats voted against
them in Congress, denounced them in their
press, and declared them unconstitutional
in their conventions. After the war was
over the Democratic J udges of the Su
preme Court gave an opinion against their
constitutionality. And now, when an is
sue ghat was justified by the Republicans
only on the ground of military necessity,
and which was pronounced by the Demo
crats unjustifiable, even on that ground, is
within half of 1 per cent. of par, and the
Treasury is prepared to redeem it accord.
ing to law, the Democrats demand its un
limited continuance and its unlimited in
crease. When it was necessary, they op
posed it ; when it is less necessary, they
support it. They arc opposed to greenbacks
in time of war, when the public credit is
strained to its utmost tension. They are
iu favor of them in time of' peace, when
the public credit is at the highest point.
When opposition to the greenbacks ern_
barrassed the Government the Democrats
opposed them ; when their continuance
can be dispensed with they support them.
The greenback was a Republican measure;
but coupled with its issue was the pledge
of the national faith that it should never
exceed a fixed amount, and that it should
be redeemed at the earliest period practi
cable. Under that pledge and with that
system it has now nearly r3ached the
period fixed for its redemption ; and to
postpone that period and to increase the
issue, as the Democracy now demand,
would be a violation of the principles of
its origin, as well as of all sound financial
policy.
Editor.
DEMOCRATS. THANK HIM.
Hon. 11. G. Fisher, as we announced
some time ago ho would do, opened his
campaign at Wells' Tannery, in Fulton
county, on the 18th ult. A correspond
ent of the Fulton Republican, who was
present, writes that paper as follows :
The Republicans and quite a number of Dem
ocrats of this township, met to hear Hon. H.
G. Fisher, our candidate for Congress, discuss
the issues of the campaign. The meeting was
organized by electing Hon. S. P. Wishart,
chairman and A. S. Edwards, esq., Secretary.
On taking the chair Mr. Wishart made some
very appropriate remarks after which Mr. Fish
er was introduced and entertained the audi
ence for an hour and a half. He handled the
financial question in an able manner, showing
clearly that the Democratic theory of solving
the money question will undoubtedly bring
our country into a financial crisis heretofore un
known in its history. On account of the cour
teous language used by Mr. Fisher, at the close
of his speech, a Democrat who is a good crit
ic, proposed a vote of thanks to Mr. Fisher
for the able manner in which he discussed the
issues.
THE Monitor, from week to week, char
ges us with maligning the character of Mr.
Speer, but for the life of us we are unable
to discover where we have done so. As a
citizen, we respect Mr. Speer, but as a po-
litician we bold him in sovereign contempt,
and look upon him as the greatest dema
gogue of the age. There is nothing too
low for him to do if he can advance his
political interests. He took the Five
Thousand Dollar Salary Swag, and because
we assert that he did so we are charged
with maligning him. Ile, in connection
with Mr. North, took charge of the Green
back organization in this county and had
his tools nominated for the Assembly, and
because we assert this we are charged with
maligning him. These are undeniable
truths, and whether Mr. Speer or his "Ed
itorial Band" of hired scribblers like them
or not, we propose to use them as often as
we see fit to do so, regardless of their howls
about "billingsgate," "malignity," "slan
der," etc. Republicans, Democrats, and
Greenbackers don't vote to advance the in
terests of the Salary Grabber. Vote the
Republican ticket.
We must elect the County Commissioners in
order to get the patronage of that office for our
paper ; if we fail to do this the paper cant
live.—lndiJereet Greentackers.
Do you see it, tax payers? This is the
plan that has been adopted for the purpose
of keeping alive a newspaper that is play
ing tail to Speer's Democratic kite. Will
you vote for men who will squander the
public funds to keep a Democratic news
paper from dying ? If you desire to put
your seal of condemnation upon such ras
eality, vote for W. H. Benson and S. P.
Smith.
THE Mud-Slinger, Mr. Speer's organ
No. 2, says that the papers in the Walls
case have been stolen from the Court
House. We don't know whether they
have been or not, but it may be so, for the
men who run the Mud-Slinger had free
access to the vaults of the Prothonotary's
office during the time it was under the
charge of Mr. Stewart, and there is no tell.
ing what they may have done. Since Mr.
Williamson has been Prothonotary this
privilege has been denied them, which ac•
counts for the bitter denunciation of him by
the master and his minions.
Monitor insists on using its favor
ite and now stereotyped expression of bil
lingsgate as applied to the JOURNAL al
though we have frequently challenged the
production of's single word or sentence of
the kind in the columns of the JOURNAL
sin co the opening of the campaign. We
have conducted the campaign openly, hon
orably and fairly, and propose to do so ;
but then it seems to afford the nominal
editor of that'sheet some gratification to
make these assertions, and we may as well
allow him to have his own way. It would
be cruel to rob him of any real or fancied
enjoyment.
THE Democratic Congressional Confer
ence, of this district which has been labor
ing for the past two weeks to set up a can
didate to be knocked down by lion. 11.
G. Fisher, adjourned on Saturday last to
meet again at Newport, at 71 o'clock this
(Thursday) evening.
AT the meeting of the Greenback Con
gressional Conference of this district, held
at Militintown, on Monday last, John
Dougherty, esq., of Mt. Union, received
the empty honor of a nomination. His
nomination was a surprise to everybody,
and is looked upon as a huge joke.
REPUBLICANS, as you love your country,
stick to your party—the only party that
saved the Union in the hour of darkness
and trouble when assailed by the Demo
cratic Rebellion. :Rand up for awl vote
the whole ticket.
MR. CALVIN'S ADMISSIONS.
In the speech of Mr. Calvin made in
this town recently, there were some re
markable admissions that effectually refuted
all he had to say. His speech was mainly
devoted to a denunciation of the National
Banks, and yet he admitted that "our
present system of National Banks is in
finitely superior to anything that ever pre
ceded it." People should be cautious about
disturbing a law of such unprecedented
infinite superiority. Let well enough alone-
No man can lose by the breaking of a
bank, and all notes lost or burnt are so
much gain to the United States.
Again, after denouncing the banks as
the sum of all villainies—an imposition on
the people because of the special privileges
given them by law, he remarked, "The
fact is the money at our banks is made on
the deposits and not on the circulating
notes." There can be no doubt that this
is true—and if true, what becomes of' all
his fuss about the bonds, and banks, and
interest, and special privileges ? Any man
can start a bank and take in deposits. He
does not even need a vault or •tn office.—
He can shave a note on the curb stone.
The Government can not help it if men
will deposit in and borrow from a bank.—
If they make money on these deposits it is
a legitimate business. If they can't make
any on their circulating notes, the Govern
ment should not be denounced because
they can make something on their deposits.
Calvin, who, for some years, has been
running in to financial fanaticism, illustrates
the old adage that "fools and children will
sometimes tell undesired truths." These
admissions being true, there was nothing
in the balance of his speech.
ONE of the bitterest enemies of Simon
Cameron in Huntingdon county, is a man
who, a little over a year ago, wrote that he
"was always the warm supporter of Gen.
Cameron," and up to the time he was pur
chased with Democratic money to do the
dirty work cf that patty, he was still the
professed admirer of the man ho now tra
duces. "Sick is life:'
THEY are running for Assembly on the
Greenback ticket in Huntingdon county a
superanuated preacher named Doyle, but,
judging from the temper of the Democrats
towards him, he is not likely to get many
votes from that party, for the reason that
he recently declared in a speech that he
"would rather go to hell than be a Demo
crat."—Armstrong Republican.
THE election in Colorado, on Monday
last, resulted in a sweeping victory for the
Republicans. Their candidate for Gover
nor was elected over the Democratic and
Greenback candidates combined. 'Rah !
THE workingmen of Huntingdon are
getting their eyes open to the fact that
Speer's Mzud•Slinyer is doing all it can
against their interest, and they will vote
accordingly.
THE Patriot insinuates that Dill's Know
Nothingism will make him votes with the
American societies in existence in the
State. Ilow will it be with Africa ?
POLITICAL CHOW-CHOW.
—Senator Fisher is becoming more popular
every day in all parts of the district.
—lf you are opposed to Huntingdon county
keeping up a newspaper, defeat the Democratic
candidates for Commissioner.
—The Greenbackers of the XXth district have
nominated Seth H. Yocum, esq., of Bellefonte, as
their candidate for Congress.
--Several prominent Greenbackers have cut
loose from that party since Speer's newspaper is
opposing the new penitentiary project.
—Gen. lloyt, Pennsylvania's nest Governor,
will make a speech in the Opera House, in Altoo
na, this, (Thursday) evening. lion. Galusha A.
Grow will also speak.
—lf Mr. Africa asks you to give him a compli
mentary vote, ask him if he intends to vote for
Fisher. He should do unto others as he would
have others do unto him.
—Mr. North and the brass-tongucd orator of
Woodcock, indulged in a little rural electionering
on Sunday. Did "Father" Doyle join you "be
yond" the limits of the town?
—Workingmen who are training with the Green
back party should remember that their so-called
organ in this town is laboring against their inter
ests by opposing the location of the new peniten
tiary in Huntingdon. _ .
—"We are preparing for the great fight in No
vember," said Governor Ilartranft to a serenading
club recently. "We are closing up the lines, and
I hope, I feel, I know that victory awaits the good
old Republican party."
—A dispatch from Washington says that Hon.
Russell Errett, a member of the present House of
Representatives from Pittsburgh, is urged for the
position of ohief of the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing, made vacant by the resignation of Non.
Ed. McPherson.
—Thirty of the beet organ makers in the world
are competitors at the Paris Exposition.—ifonitor.
We haven't missed Speer from town long enough
for him to be present with the other organ makers.
He is no slouch at the business. Vidc organ No.
1 and organ No. 2.
—Congressman Fisher, that is to be, arrived at
Middleburg on Monday afternoon, and made hosts
of friends among our people. Congressman Fisher
is just the right man in the right place. He will
make a faithful and efficient representative.—Sny
der County Tribune.
—Tue Democrats are counting upon Mr. Africa
receiving large numbers of complimentary votes.
But they will be disappointed. Republicans have
quit the complimentary vote business since they sent
the Salary Grabber to Congress. No complimen
tary votes this year.
—Every boatman, every merchant, every coal
dealer, every man who has shipping to do, should
vote against B. R. Foust, for the reason that he
is in favor of abandoning the canal, and he will so
vote if, by any misfortune, he should be elettml to
the Legislature. Vote for Smith and McVitty,
both of whom will oppose any measure having for
its object the vacating of the canal.
—The Snyder county Tribune, in speaking of
the large and enthusiastic meeting held at Middle
burg, on the 24th ult., which was addressed by
Hon. H. G. Fisher, says : "The Congressman is a
fluent speaker, well posted on the issues of the
day, and he held his audience spell-bound for the
space of two hours. The attention which they gave
him was evidence of the effect it had upon the
audience."
—Andy Curtin has joined the Democrats and
gone into the "Reform" business. When he is
instructing the people he should not forget to tell
them that when he was elected Governor he had
to borrow money to pay his way to Harrisburg,
and that in four years he returned to his home
worth one million of dollars. Pete Herdic's boom
and the tonnage tax bills helped him out of his
impecunious position.
—On the occasion of the mass (?) meeting of
the Greenbackers, in this place, on Saturday a
week ago, a number of boys were employed to
distribute a letter written by some one and signed
by Peter Herdic, giving his views on the financial
situation. At the time the letter was being circu
lated here its reputed author was under $5,000
bail to answer the charge of defrauding the Co
lumbia National Bank out of a large sum of
money. A pretty pill is Peter to cry '(Reform,"
but then we have some Peter Herdios here, on a
smaller scale, who nre howling against National
Bankyi
FOUST, Speer's candidate for the Leg
islature, is pledged, in case of his election,
to vote for vacating the canal.
LITERARY NOTES.-
Winn AwAlie FOR Di:Tonna, 187 S.—The October
Wide A ,",ke opens with a very pleasaat frontis
piece in crayon by Robert Lewis, illustrating the
fanciful opening story "The Secret of the Trees,"
by Lucy Lincoln Montgomery. "Phronsio Pep
par's New Shoes," by Margaret Sydney, is also
delightfully illustrated by .Jessie Curtis. These
pictures, together with Miss Humphrey's delicious
drawing, "Weighing the Baby," and the score of
pen and ink drawings by Boz for "Hop-'o-My-
Thumb," Mrs. Clara. Doty Bates' six-paged Classic
of Ilabyland, make the number very attractive for
both old and young. Fur beautiful frontispieces
of Child-life this magazine has no equal. "Naughty
Zay" by Mrs. Carrie Wright and the story of
"Arty' in large print, also have very charming
pictures. "Miss Muslin and Miltiades Peterkin
Paul" get themselves into a funny predicament as
usual. The serials, "Trying to be True," and
"Doe and her Knights," are interesting. In the
first-named, which would do credit to any of the
older magazines in point of plot and literary
finish, matters have progressed to a very exciting
crises. For solid reading there is a fully illus
trated paper about "Light-Houses" by Mary
Lockwood, an article by Fanny Roper Feudge on
the "Feet of Chinese Women," and Number VII
of Mrs. Lillie's English Literature papers, this
one treating of Milton and Bunyan„ and as being
beset, Number X of Miss Brown's Child Toilers of
Boston Streets, "The Chestnut Roasters," may be
included.
Only $2.00 per annum. Ella Farman, Editor,
D. Lothrop & Co., Publishers, Boston.
ST. NICHOLAS FOR OCTOBER.—The October
number of St. Nicholas opens with a very interest
ing story, "The Violin Village," which carries us
away to the mountains of the Tyrol, and tells the
varied adventures of a bright young goat-boy of
that region.
The two serials "Under the Lilacs," and "Dab
Kinzer," are brought to a happy close, and there
are several good, shortstories, one of which, "Mrs.
Priinkins' Surprise," contains some additional
exploits of Nimpo, whose "Troubles" interested
the readers of St. Nicholas some years ago.
The long-promised paper on "Parlor Magic" is
given in this number and the boys who wish to
get up lively evening entertainments will be glad
to see it. It contains plain and simple directions
for the performance of many curious experiments.
The ''French Alphabet," with twenty-six origi
nal pictures, also appears, and among the other
useful papers is one entitled "How to Keep a
Journal." "Cutting the Pie," a humorous poem
by Rossiter Johnson, will amuse the older boys
and girls, while "Happy Little Froggy" will make
everybody laugh. "A Tale of Many Tails," and
"Prince Cucurbita" are lively sketches, with
pictures of novel design ; and there are several
very funny cuts scattered through the number.
"The Very Little Folks" have a bright poem,
"Hare and Hounds," with a fine picture by Shep
pard , and the departments are, as usual, well
filled with good things,
Extra Liability to Malarial Infection.
Persons whose blood is thin, digestion weak
and liver sluggish, are extra-liable to the
attacks of malarial disease. The most trifling
exposure, may, under such conditions, infect
a system which, if healthy, would resist the
miasmatic taint. The only way to secure
immunity from malaria hi localities where it
is prevalent, is to tone and regulate the system
by improving weakened digestion, enriching
the blood, and giving a wholesome impetus to
biliary secretion. These results are accomp
lished by nothing so effectively as Ilostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which long experience has
proved to be the most reliable safeguard
against fever and ague and kindred disorders,
as well as the best remedy for them. The
Bitters are, moreover, an excellent invigorant
of the organs of urination, and an active
depurent, eliminating from the blood those
acrid impurities which originate rheumatic
ailments. [oct4- m.
Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia.
Dyspepsia is the most perplexing of ail human
ailments. Its symptoms arc almost infinite
in their variety, and the forlorn and despond
ent victims of the disease often fancy them
selves the prey, in turn of every known malady
This is due, in part to the close sympathy
which exists between the stomach and the
brain, and in part also to the fact that any
disturbance of the digestive function necessari
ly disorders the liver, the bowels and the
nervous system, and affects to some extent,
the quality of the blood.
E. F. Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron a sure
cure. This is not a new preparation, to be
tried and found wanting ; it has been pre
scribed daily for many years in the practice of
eminent physicians with unparalleled success;
it is not expected or intended to cure all the
diseases to which the human family is subject,
but is warranted to cure Dyspepsia in its
most obstinate form. Kunkel's Bitter Wine
of Iron never fails to cure. Symptoms of
Dyspepsia are loss of appetite, wind and
rising of the food, dryness of the mouth,
heartburn, distension of the stomach and
bowels, constipation, headache, dizziness,
sleeplessness, and low spirits. Try the great
remedy and be convinced of its merits. Get
the genuine. Take only Kunkel's, which is
put only in $1 bottles. Depot, 259 North

CURED OF DRINKING.—"A young
friend of mine was cured of an insatiable
thirst for Liquor, that had so prostrated his
system that he was unable to do any business.
He was entirely cured by the use of Hop
Bitters. It allayed all that burning thirst ;
took away the appetite for liquor; made his
nerves steady, and he has remained a sober
and steady man for more than two years, and
has no desire to return to his cups, and I know
of a number of others that have been cured of
drinking by it."—From a leading R.R Official,
