LEGISLATIVE CORRUPTION.
Time was, when bribery and corruption
wore entirely. unknown, and our repre
sentatives in the State and National coun
cils were considered pure and honeit be
yond suspicion. . But now-a-days, a
change has " come o'er- the spirit of our
dream," and a man who will not be
bribed is considered a, natural-born fool";
"consequently a seat at Harrisburg or
Washington has-become a very desirable
post for -gentlemen of easy virtue, who
think that more money, can be made by
Selling their votes, than by any honest
pursuit, and hence every year we have a
grand scramble for a nomination. Now,
under this state of things, we Would
respectfully suggest that instead of mak
ing nominations by the Crawford County
or the old delegate system, the County
Committee put up the nomination of, offi
cers at public auction, the highest bidder
to be the buyer, and the money bidden to
be paid into the County Treasury; in re - -
duetion of our taxes, for, if legislation is
only a means of making money fox the
representatives, and no longer-an honora
ble-means of making laws 'for the public
good, the representatives 'should pay for
the opportunity of being bribed, aud re
alizing a fortune. We hope •our honest
politicians will duly consider this; and act
accordingly.
Going to Harrisburg, either us Sena
tor, Member of the House, subordinate,
hanger-on or lobbyist, is considered' a
fkrat-rato business, as t.liesi'e appear - a to be
lots of plundo., and it ,wouldTseent that if
any one . gets a taste of the flesh •pots; he
holds on like' a leech, and' resorts °to 'all
kinds of schemes and li•lekeri . fo' for
to go . back, We don't pretend to know
how or why it is, but the , fact.is appalling .
ly apparent, that no one ever -gets sick or .
tired of - Harrisburg during_ SesSion . of
the Legislature. ..There must be ,good
things circulating around, and we would.
not object to a chance ourselves, if some-•
body would:he - kind 'en otigh to 'help 'Elia

Grant and Colfax—The Campaign.
Our ticket is now in the field. It is a
noble one. From every
,State comas the
cheeritig - : tidings that, under this excel
lent selection of eandidatea, all partyfiif
ferences.aro being healed,,prejudice's

PARTY,will:present an unbroken front to
the enemy.
.Editor
—While-the Durity of our ticket is an al-'
most positive -assurance -of success, we
.r>
must remember that we have a wily and
unprincipled foe to fight—one who will
hesitate at no proposition, no matter how
degrading it may be, to defeat the Union
I "nominees. We are fighting a party with
out principles, that is held together only
by the prospect of - public plUnder. It
enunciates no great living truth, but is a
barrier in the path of * the nation's pro-
El=
On the contrary; we present a platforhi_
that appeals irresistably
,to the masses.
Embodied in it are the principles which
are designed to magnify and perpetuate
the glories of the republic and the: best,
interests of all its citizens. It is fully up
to the progressive spirit of the age. With•
such candidates and-such a platform;' we
come before the people stronger ilistiv
ever before. But as we have said our
foe is wily and unprincipled, to place
success beyond per-adventure, we must
have thorough and perfect organization.
A. vigorous and zealous canvass must
made, so that if possible the position of
every voter may be asscrtained. Let us
begin the work speedily by the forming
of Grant and Colfax clubs; and "move at
once upon the enemys works."
LOOK OUT FOR FRAUDS.
The friends of Grant and Colfax must
look out for frauds at the next election:
The Democratic party is nothing If not
,
connected with fraud. Their hope of
success depends on ~their' skill in trick
and, chicanUry, as they always' educate
theinselves for fitness in " treason, Strata
gem and spoil." . Ever since the eicethin
of--Buchanan, in 1850, -whatever gains
they have made; have been the result of
systematic frail& with forged naturaliza
tion certificates, &c. Lnzerue coun
ty has borne a full share in this nefarious
business, and Philadelphia and Pittsburg
were both disgraced last , Qctoberl by the
same operation. Shugart was apparently
elected ,Senaor from, Clearfield district ;
but on a thorough - investigation; it Was
clearly shown that his' majority Nrai - basdcf .
on the,most: shameful frauds, to .conceal
which, even murder was resorted to.i Let
us not wait-until it is too late; as in' 1856,
but doMe; let us go to work' to detect : and ,
prevent' all illegal voting, .and ~see that
every Republican ',voter shall- cote. By
doing this, we may hope for success - 14
gOod majority, but fail . in

ment is consumatcd, a few thousand Re
bels will send twenty Senators and ,one
,hundred "members of Congress to break
the_ laws and rule the country to its ruin,
,arwho arc they? Rebels, and traitors
who formore than a century have robbed
the African of the - fruits 'of his labor, and
finally robbed the United States Treasury
,of millions of dollars; brought on a war
and entailed a .billion .of debt upon the

who advocate the hellish doctrine that the

OUR REPRESENTA.TIVE.
We are, very glad to learn that our dis
tinguished member :of Congress, -
Thaddeus Stevens, has lately improved so
much, as to inspire us with the hope that
he may yet represent our district for .a
long time to 'come., He ,seems to be al
most providentially preserved to us, for
should we lose him, we - know not Where
to look for another: He` is a'man in all
reSpectsof his own noble kind, and there
is none other like him. :The question is
frequently asked, what shall we . do, whom
can we select, when the time shall 'come
forasuccessor ? and no. ,one .can answer
satisfactorily., .- We. have plenty- of aspi

The Masonic Celebration.
The most notable event in the annals of
Free Masonry, In philadolphin, was that
connected with the laying of -the corner
stone of the new Masonic - TonfPle, on Wed
nesday. It will become memorable on ac
count'tof the large :number, of the craft 4 f
brougbt together for a street parade, and
because of the character and magnitude of
the enterprise that gave occasion to the dis
play. The circumstance of a merely
be
-novblent" 'undertaking tho
erection of a structure for its ordinary pu,r
pOses. that will be so extensive in its dimen
sions, and so costly in its materials, archi
tecture andgetieralfinish, as to require an
outlajof nearly a million , of• dollarif, is in
itself a most extraordinary event, and
-shows ut once the influence,-the great pub
lic,spirit and the wealth of the organization.
The procession was characterized by-sever
al remarkable features.-• There was an en
'tire absence of all brilliant decorations and
gay colors.' The uniform was severely sim
ple, and "yet in thorough gciod taste. It
was the ordinary dress costume of the well
to-do-men of. Philadelphia,. a dark suit,
with black silk hat. To this was' added a
plain - white leather apron without mark or
ornament, and in the case of the officers of
a lodge, the silver badge Or "jewel" appro
.priate -to the. office; - suspended by- a blue
ribbon. , To those whose oyes aro most
readily attracted --by tinsel and trapping,
this, doubtless, gave an air of monotony to
the procession, and they may have turned
away without looking at the whole of it.
But there were vast-numbers of spectators
of a different - temper, who waited to see the
whole- line go by, and to these the men
themselves were.' the superior attraction,
-for they were a sightly, comely,' manly
body of men, :with fine physique, and intel
ligence and intellect in all their, futures.
It is within bonds to say that no superior
body of men, in equal numbers, taken pro
miscuously from all ranks in life, could be
brought together in any country. Through -
out the- whole proceedings, there was- evi
dence of a carefully thought out plan, and
everything was well ordered, and there
was commendable punctuality. The Mu
-sons may well feel proud of their Order and
of their display, and it will be surprising if
the events of Wednesday do not add large
ly to the numbers of the organization.
' HonAck: GnEELEY said at a Grant ratifi
cation meeting that Colfax. was the first
person ever nozninatod for President or vice
President who was born in that city, and
that he had known him for a long time,
and recollected helping him to mount a
barrel when lie was only nineteen years of
age, that, he might speak for Henry Clay,in
front of the old National Hall.

SP_ECIAT, NOTICES.
SOME , FOLKS CAN'T SLEEP
NIGIITS
Very many suffer from, general debility, others
from weakness of the stomach and Inability: to di
gest their food; some have creeping sensations along
the nerve fibres, or pain in the back, with aching and
weary throbbing of the limbs. Thousands of ladies
suffer through long years from what ate called
PeniNe Complaints, 'caused by'the relaxation of mus=
cle and ligament that attend deficiency of vital force.
Thousands of business men, overworked. In mind
and body, use up the nervous fluid and become un
fit for duly or the enjoyments of life. Bxcesses in
youtlicand the terrible effects of fever and ague, in
volve shattered constitutions and the failure of the
general functions yf health. To sufferers from all
these causes,.
DODD'S'NERVINE AND INVIGORATOR
offers an invaluable boon—a natural and efficient
recovery of lost powers. No person, - man or woman,
suffering from any cause, can afford to neglect this
remedy. The Nervine will be found to possess an
equalizing and nutritive principle. It allays irrita
tion, and like sleep promotes the secretions of the
system. It has affinity for the nervous fibres, and
supplies them for the waste that is conAtantly taking
place. Like wholesome food taken into the stomach,
it undergoes rapid digestion, invigorating in its pro
cess the digestive organs, and producing a
CALMNESS AND TRANQUILITY,
unknown to any other preparation. It contains no
opium or hasheesh, and so far from producing cos.
tiveness, it will be found an efficient cure for consti
pation, and has obtained a world-wide renown for
this peculiarity.
WHAT PEOPLE SAY.
"Dear Doctor: The last medicine prescribed by
you I obtained, and will say that Dodd's Nervino and
Invigorator is all that it claims to be. I feel like a
new man ; the aching of my limbs is all gone ; I sleep
well, have a good appetite, and feel stronger than I
have for many years past." [Contributed by Dr. 11.
A. TPcker, 269 Clinton street, Brooklyn, New York.]
have asedthe Nervine, and find myself much
benefited by it, particularly in the increase of
strength and cure of these trembling sensations.
My costiveness also seems to be entirely cured.
Letter to Dr. Tucker.)
"The medicine you ordered (Dodd's Nervine) we
hare taken three bottles of. It is a great thing. My
wife says she would rather have one bottle of it than
forty doctors. She is certainly better, don't feel the
'dragging down so lunch; bowels move easier, and in
better nervous condition every way."
G. D. Martin, Cashier Glenn House, Long Branch,
New Jersey, states that Dodd's Nervine has cured
him of chronic weakness of the stomach, dizziness
and sick headache, and greatly strengthened his
whole system.
David Hartshorn, 399 Stale street, 'Brooklyn, cured
of chronic muscular and nervous debility.
John Harbnt, Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "To regu
late the bowels without producing cathartic effect,
quiet the nerves, and tone up the system, I have
never used anything that equalled Dodd's Nor
ville."
W. F. Deans, Esq., Eastford, Conn.: "My wife
has suffered for seventeen years with extreme ner
vous debility and mental prostration. She was in
duced by a•friend to try Dr. J. W. Dodd's Nervine
and Invigorator, and by its use is now restored to
perfect health."
Dr. C. C. York, Charlestown, glass.: "In cases of
great nervous debility, not confined by any means ,
to the female sex, although from the greater deli
cacy of the female organization more common than
among men, I employ Dodd's Nervine and Invigor
ator with the happiest effect. It exceeds in tonic
power anythiim that I know of, while its action upon
the bowels is all that can be desired."
DODD'S NERVING AND INVIGORATOR is em
ployed in the Massachusetts Hospital for the Insane
at Taunton.
