Hon. James R. Doolittle, who, during
the first two years of tho Lincoln ad- 1
ministration, was the powerful leader
of the Republican party In the Unjted
States Senate, lias been nominated for
Governor by the Democrats of Wiscon
sin. At this Mr. Grant’s Collector of
Customs at Phlladelpnla (Fprney, of the
Press,) shows his teeth, and speaks of
Doolittle as a man of no account. To
use’ the language of the Press, this tried
and experienced statesman and scholar
“ is one of the decayed timbers that we
(the Republicans) long since threw; over
board.” '
And who are the “ we” that Forney
speaks of? They are the thieves of our
country—Grant and his office holders.
There are a good many “ decayed tim
bers” like Doolittle, who formerly be-,
longed to the Republican party, but who
left it when they discovered that the
grand objects of that infamous organiza
tion were robbery and contention; such
men, in addition to Mr. Doolittle, as
the Chases, Adamses, Cowans, Cor
wins, Browns of Missouri, Carl Schurz,
and scores of other great men. Indeed,
It can be said with truth that nearly all
the men distinguished for talent and
manliness, who have been regarded as
the leaders in the Republican party,
have either left it in utter disgust or
are passive lookers on at the present
time. Greeley, Sumner, Fenton and
others, were Jonlh to fail out with an
administration they iiad assisted to cre
ate, but the corrupt practices of Grant,
and his treasonable attempts to usurp
power by military bruto force, has
alienated these men of character from
him, and they how speak of the great
smoker as the most corrupt man in
America ns well as one of the weakest.
Tiie present supporters Of Grant aro his
army of office holders and .recognized
plunderers of tho treasury. Is it not
cool, then, in Forney to boast of what
“ Wo >’_the office liolders and plunderers
—have done in the way of crowding
decent and honest men from the ranks
of Radicalism ? ’
Georgia is a good place forcriminais.
It appears that Governor Bullock has,
during his incumbency, granted 102 out
of 463 applications for pardons ; among
the offenses pardoned being 56 murders,
31 manslaughters, 30 assaults with in
tentto kill,and 52 burglaries. Bullock,
of Georgia, bents Scott, of South Caro
lina, as a friend of the lawless. It was
thought monstrous of the latter to nul
lify the actions of the courts in 209 out
of 480 convictions in one year by grant
ing pardons to the former number of
convicts, hut Bullock’s pardons throw
Scott into the shade. It is scarcely ne
cessary to add that Bullock and Scott
are radical carpet baggers.
If theearnest, thinking Democrats of
every township In Cumberland county
would at once put their heads together,
and quietly select ten or a dozen voters
whom they will make it their business
lo bring over to the side of tho Democ
racy before the October election, they
would find in the outcome tho advan
tage of acting with system and purpose.
Pleasant words, accommodating atten
tion, arid the occasional (if not regular)
perusal of a steady-going Democratic
newspaper, are a combination of influ
ences that can accomplish unitedly on
an opponent what everything else might
fail to effect. Democrats who have tried
this, will endorse our statement, JLet
such efforts be made more generally.
Chst your eyes over your township,
select the men who shall bo rescued,
and go to work at once.
Dubino the month of July, the mar
ine disasters to vessels belonging to the
citizens of the United States, or bound

asters,'eleven were wrecked, four foun
dered, three sunk by collision, two were
abandoned at sea, two were burned,
and one is missing, the fate of which is
unknown. One steamer was lost, two

THE KIIKI.IIX SCARE.
Travelers tell us thatthemoat destruc
tive weapon of (Chinese warfare is the
dong, and wo can readily imagine the
statement to be true. Although wo say
that a victorious army is ns “terrible as
an army with banners,” yet an army
with gongs would bo tenfold more so ;
for one gong, even when invoked in tho
interests of hungry humanity, is snfll
ciont to destroy tho peace of mind of an
entire community. Realizing this truth,
our Radical friends have taken up the
gong to fight tho ghost„of a dead rebel
lion with. When they pretended to
fight a live rebellion they saw fit to roly
mainly upon tho sturdy hearts and
trusty bayonets of the Northern Democ
racy, hut now that the men who formed
tho bone and sinew- of the array have
declined to Join in the Quixotic crusade
upon unoffending windmills, or the
ruthless slaughter of whole flocks of in
nocent sheep, these valorous gentlemen,
- wlio neyer lea'rnodilTC'Tiso of -arms on"
the actiinl field of battle, have taken up
the gong to frighten away the ghosts.
They have adopted tho expedients re
ported to in tho cheap theatres, and
when any great sensation is. to he creat
ed, they turn down the gas, and light
the red fire, and send their blue devils
hounding onto the stage, and all fail .to
beating gongs, and make things look as
much like hell as possible. .
A scene like this transpired just before
tho adjournment of Congress. When
the last Congress mot in March, it-was
soon discovered that a majority of the
members were in favor of revenue re
form. Bills repealing tho tariff on coal
and salt passed the House by overwhel
ming majorities. The entire Radical
camp was thrown into confusion. Two
of their strongholds had been carried by
the enemy, and there was great danger
of a defeat along tho whole line. Tho
monopolists became alarmed. “This
thing must be stopped,” they said ;
“ turn on the red lights—sound the
gong — kuklux! kuklux! KUKLUX!”
The faithful were gathered into caucus,
and there pledged to do nothing but
legislate for the tranquility of the South !
Tho party was once more rallied and
consolidated by the old party cries of
lawlessness and violence at the South,
and tijo. monopolists again had the peo
ple at the'ir mercy. Most persona have
seen a flock of bees, discontented and 1
dissatisfied, and about to swarm from
the old hive. Then ail the old women
in the community get after them, with
a hideous din and clatter of tin pans, to
induce the truants to settle down again
in the bid hive! Just so the re'venue
reformers were about to swarm from
the Radical hive, hut granny Sumner,
and Grant and Butler all get out with
their gongs, and hollowed “Kuxlux!
Kuklux,” until the runaways were all
induced to return to tho hive and con
tinue to gather honey for tho Radical
monoplists.
The object of the Radical leaders in
getting up this sensation was not only
to use the kuklux ghost to frighten their
party in the North Into the support of
an administration which was breaking
down of its own inherent weakness, but
also to form a pretext for again over
throwing the State governments in the
Soulh—authorizing tho President to
proclaim marshal law throughout one
third of the nation—to march his hire
ling soldiery info every Southern dis
trict, and thereby secure his re-election
to tho chair he now disgraces. ■ It was
the first strategic movement in the
Presidential campaign of 1872, and the
camp followers were not slow to discern
what was required of them. From Con-
gross, from the hustings, and from the
Iladical newspapers was poured forth a
piteous tale of “ Kuklux” outrages.—
There was not a State in the South in
which life and property were secure—
dwellings were tired at the hour of mid
night, and all their inmates consumed
—murders, by the thousand were com
mitted—the land was drenched in blood
—and all by these terrible Kuklux!
The President himself entered the lists,
and using the prerogative of his high
office lo defame thousands of his own
people, in S message to Congress reit
erated these calumnies, and asked for
additional power to suppress disorders
in the Southern States. Of course the
power was granted, for Congress had
pledged itself lo do nothing hut legislate
for the tranquility of the South !
It is a HtUo remarkable that while
these scenes were being enacted In Con
gress, General Shprman, who had been
traveling through the South, made a.
speech-at-Now Orleans, in which ho
said : “ I probably have as good means
of information as most persons in regard
to what is called the Kuklux, and I
am perfectly satisfied that .the thing is
greatly overestimated ; and if the Ku
klux bills wore kept out of Congress,
and the army kept at their legitimate
duties, there are enough good and true
men in all tho Southern States to put
down all Kuklux or other bands of
marauders." There was peculiar force
in the expression of Gen. Sherman that
he had as good means of information in
regard to the Kuklux as any one, for as
General ’of the army he had not only
been in official communication with
every Military District in the Souih, on
this very question, hut had personally
visited nearly every one of the Southern
States.
A week later, Horace Greeley, then
on a pleasure trip throughout the South,
was serenaded at Now Orleans, and in
his reply said: “ I believe the best men
should occupy the best places, without
any reference to bygones. There would
not bo a Kuklux in the land now, if
there had been a general amnesty five
years ago.” And on his return to New
York, he published the following re
markable editorial in the New York
Tribune;
"The most intelligent, the iuliiieutlal,
the educated, the really useful men of the
South, deprived of all' political nower,
have come to look upon themselves as
the outraged subjects of a despotic con
queror. Taxed and swindled by n horde
of rascally foreign adventurers, and by
the ignorant class which only yesterday
hoej the fields and served In the kit
chens, they care nothing for politics ex
cept tp throw fjff the oppressive yoke ;
they have no Interest ifl national affairs;
they would call themselves of either par
ly, provided their rulers were only of the
other. The refuse of the Northern cities,
who went Southward after tbo war, out
at elbows and destitute of character and
education, now roll In splendid carriages,
drink rare wines, glitter with diamonds
aa big as Fisk’s, and steal taxes as fast as
a New York Street Commissioner. No
wonder the impoverished planter, grow
ing poorer every day; the cx-Confederate
officer, who fought so bravely for a cause
111 which bo honestly believed; the pro
fessional men, accustomed all their lives
to hold office and lead the public senti
ment of their communities, look on such
things with rancorous hearts. They
might submit to bo ruled by soldiers who
r •
have beaten them in battle, but here (boy
are plundered by sutlers sad Camp fol
lowers.”
Just about this time, too, tho report
of tho Ku-Klux investigating com
mittee was presented to Congress, from
which it appeared that the only Ku-
Klux arrested, tried and punished in the
entire South, were several Republican
darkeys,\iho went around stealing hams
and chickens from their brother darkeys.
This statement is astounding, when we
remember that tho entire machinery of
Justice is in the hands of tho carpet
baggers mid negroes. With Radical
governors, judges, sheriffs, and pros
ecuting attorneys—with an army of
secret spies and detectives—and no one
permitted to sit on juries who cannot
take tho loyal iron-clad oath—they
ought to have been able to do hetToF
than this. True, several negroes in
Louisiana were’Ku Kluxed” for voting
tho Democratic ticket,-but their tnur-'
derors proved to he negroes, and were,
■pardoned bythO'XtftdliSJTlbvenjbfr’tn
North Carolina, ton.-ib-was proved on
the trial of Governor Holden, by the
testimony of Danfol R. Goodloe, United
States Marshal for North Carolina, that
" the Radical members of the Legisla-
ture issued an address to tho people, in
which the negroes were advised to burn
the barns and houses of those who re
fused to employ them on account of
their polities;” and it was also proven
that these ignorant and suporstitous
negroes, sworn to obey the commands
of their leaders, did destroy tho property
of white merijomd, after their convic
tion in a court of justice, were pardon
ed by Governor Holdon. But these
“ Ku Klux” outrages wore merely in
flicted upon Democrats, and the Con
gressional Committee didn’t seem to
think them worthy of special no
tice. The main fact, therefore, stands
uncontraclicted, that with all tho machi
nery of justice in their hands, the only
Xu Klux the Radicals have discovered
and ptmisheti.in the entire South, were
half a dozen worthless negroes, convic
ted ol stealing hams and chickens.
Now that we have alluded to the of
ficially published investigations of this
Ku Klux committee, we will give an
abstract of the testimony of three im
portant men in the South, recently ta
ken before that committee—Governor
Lindsay of Alabama, and U. S. District
Judge Busteed, of Alabama; and U. 8.
Judge Carpenter, of Charleston—all of
them Radicals in whom could be found
no guile. From the testimony which
follows, it will be seen that the commit
tee were rather unfortunate in the sel
ection of their witnesses. .Wo quote
from Forney’s P> ess :
Gov, Lindsay concluded his testimony
before the committee to-day, having been
subjected to a searching examination of
seven or eight hours in relation to the
condition of affairs in Alabama. He gave
an unqualified denial to the reports of
political outrages and organized resis
tance to law in Alabama,.and expressed
bis belief, from ail sources of information
available to him, that said State has not
been so quiet, orderly and peaceful in 20
years.os at present. Abundant means of
education have been provided, and are
Impartially accessible for nil classes, both
white and colored, and In no part of his
State is any one In danger of molestation
or violence on account of Ills, political
sentiments. He know of no Ku Klux
organizations in tho State.”
Again: ' ■
“Judge Busteed, ol Alabama, was ex
amined by the Kn Klux committee, on
Friday. .He suit! that lie was told con
fidentially, a year nod a half ago, that
there was a Hu Klux organization in tiro
northern part,of tire State, but Iris infor
mant did not. tell bin) its object, lie bc-
Moved now there was no such organization
in the State. Person and property were
as safe there as in any oilier part of .Hie
Union, The tile subordinate
State officials was notoriously bad, both
as to honesty nod Intelligence. Biueo Ids
appointment as Judge by President Lin
coln, tb.ere has been no obstruction to
the administration of Ids office or the
taw, except once by the Republican Aii-
,(J I tor of the .State, Me thought the feel
ing of the people was to obey tire laws,
although deeply convinced that they
were not equal and Impartial.”
And again:
Judge J. B. Carpenter, of .Charleston,
H. 0.. was nearly .five hours before the
Ku Klux .Committee yesterday. He tes
tified that (here hud been outrages In,
portions lit .Smith Carolina. They did
not result from hostility to tire Federal
Government, hut were the natural out
breaks of men who bad no redress
through the forms and administration of
the law. The government of the State
was defective in capacity in ail depart
meiits.and venal. It bad increased the
Slate debt $11,000,000, and not a mile of
raljrnad, a . foot of canal, or a school
house bad been constructed. He was a
candidate for Governor. He. traveled in
every county in the Btate tint one, en
joying tlie most Intimate social relations.
He never beard a word against the Ped
al Government. He repeated that the
opposition was to the administration of
the State government, composed of In
competent and corrupt officials, aud who
exercised their functions in an inefficient
and corrupt manner.
The members of the Colored League
perpetrated outrages, such as murderand
the burning of flye houses, before there
were Ku Klux organizations. The people
submitted quietly for two years, until
they found they had no redress through
the forms of law. Hence, organizations
took place as a means of redress. The
condition of things generally la bad. A
tax of $4,000,000 lias been levied for this
year, and if ttiis should be collected it
would bankrupt one third of llio State.”
Bo much for this last Ku Klux scare.
It makes a vast difference whether we
witness the play from before the foot
lights orfrom behind the scenes. When
we get back among the ropes and pul
leys, and see how the,scenery is shifted,
andhow vigorously themanagerpounds
his gong, and how the red light that
illuminated the whole landscape is
kindled ih an insignificant iron pan—
and learn that the hobgoblins that danco
over the stage are after all only human
beings trying to play the devil —wo nat
urally come to tho conclusion that these
heroes in robes of curtain calico and
jewels of tinsel—who strut so grandly
over the stage, in tho presence of the
dear people—are nothing more than or
dinary mortals seeking to turn an hon
est penny by playing upon tho credulity
of the public.
■ G n.vx'L’ was asked, “ What woultj yoti
have done if North Carolina had not
satisfied Republican anticipations?”—
And the answer was worthy tho despot
that he is : “ I have the power under
the Ku klux hill to have made her.”
This man has indeed a queer notion of
governing a republic; wo shall see In a
few months what people thiilk of his
Views.
Look AiTgis Piqubks I—Ope of thp
most unanswerable arguments of the
late Democratic address to tho voters of
Pennsylvania, is the statement that tho
ordinary Government expenditures for
tho fiscal year ending Juno 1, 1870, ex
clusive of Jndinn annuities, pensions,
and interest Q() tjjp fiubjie debt, were
$118,009,522,-13; for tho year ending Jqno
1,1800, the expenditures for tho same
purpose wore only $55,918,188.72. These
figures are significant.
, UNF.ARTII TIIK THIKTFS
. A week ago a despatch was sent over
the wires, announcing that State Trea
surer Mackey anil Auditor General
Harlranft had - forwarded to Attorney
General Brewster theformal notification
of the claim of the State upon the de
linquent special agent, Mr. George O.
Evans. Their statement embraces the
three missing warrants, Nos. 1937, 3535,
and 2719, amountlrigto $321,914.44,with
over $40,000 interest. They give Mr.
Evans credit for his check, July 21,
1871, for $29,967,53, on account, making
the claim against him about $330,000.
Why don’t the Attorney General,
usually so prompt in such matters, pro
secute Evans for embezzlement? Ho
.retains and refuses to pay $330,000 00'
which rightfully belongs to the State.
Nobody believes ho has all this money,
_but the public would like to know who
the parties are with whom he has, di
vided.. Letjus.JrayoJb,ej,r.names.,. What! 1
necessity was there lor this agency at
all ? Tlie accounts eouid have been set
tled without paying ten, per cent, on.
nearly three millions. Gov. Geary, it
is claimed, had great influence at Wash
ington; why did he not use it in the
interests of the State? Why did not
Simon Cameron, United States Senator,
see that his native State Was not robbed
in this scandalous manner? Had Simon
a finger in the pie?
It is rumored that Attorney General
Brewster is,averse to the arrest of Mr.
“Agent” Evans, and declares that, so
far as Evans is concerned, he would not
hesitate to act promptly, but that there
are others concerned in the swindle
whom it would not bo, for political rea
sons, policy to arrest Just now, and that
the whole thing was stirred up because
a certain individual did not get his
“rake.” .
The Age says the conviction ig general
in Harrisburg, .that a large portion of
the plunder of Evans has passed out of
his hands into those of a baud of men
who procured his appointment, and
cannot be refunded. This is likely true,'
Evans is only the tool of worse men in
this Statesmen who are now preaching
morality and leading the Radical party.
These are the men wo wish to see un
earthed, and they will bo if Attorney
General Brewster does his duty. Let
the thieves be unearthed !
Solid Reasons for Unfopulabi
ty.—lt rarely happens that a man’s
■political* friends are willing to tell his
faults and weaknesses, but occasionally,
when they becohie too and
damaging, it becomes a necessity. Thus
Harper's Weekly, which is a thorough
Radical sheet, admits of Grant what
the Democracy so frequently help up to
his discredit. It acknowledges that the
President is becoming unpopular, and
gives as reasons therefor:
“The quality of the President's friend
ship. and the intimate influences whish
surround him ; the alienation of some
men of high culture and high character
from his counsvls, the appointment of
certain unworthy officers, his passion for
San Domingo, and what ia called nepo
tism, ignorance indifference to real re
form, progress and political purification.’ 1
DSrClrculate Democratic truth if you
would counteract the baleful influence
of Radical falsehood. Every Democrat
who is interested in the prevalence of
correct pxdnciple.-j should make it his
special business to lend his Volunteer
to his Republican neighbor. More than
this, if he can afford it, he should invest
a‘small sum in Democratic papers for
the benefit of Republicans who either
cannot or will not subscribe for them.
The Volunteer, during the progress
of the campaign, will vigorously press
home upon Radicalism the infamies of
which it has been guilty. Wo look to
our friends to aid in spreading the truth
before the people.
The, valuation of the real and personal
estate of Pennsylvania is $1,034,210,936,
(about $550 per inhabitant,) the largest
assessed valuation of any of the United
States. There are richer individuals and
richer corporations rirfether States, but
we have the largest number of comfor
tably well-off people, Pittsburgh is a
fair example of Pennsylvania distribu
tion. While it has no man worth, four
millions of dollars, it has hundreds who
are worth one hundred thousand, thou
sands wbrth tens of thousands, and tens
of thousands owning their own homes.

It is now intimated in various ways
that many thousands of the Evans com
missions were expended in carrying the
State for Geary, and as hush money to
a few niwspapers. It was mainly
pended in Luzerne, Philadelphia, and a
few other localities in the east. Wheth

any of the items, w© can’t say, but a
rich placer is promised.
