WEDNESDAY UOHNINO, OCTOBER 4, 1871
Till. OM SC HOOL HOLHt:.
I flat an hoar to-day, -John,
Beside the old brook stream
Where we were ichool-boya in old tlmo
When manhood wai a dream t
Tlie brook in choked with fallen loaves,
The pond ii dried away,
I icitroe believe that you would know
The dear old place to-day.
The school house Is no more, John,
Beneath our locust trees,
The wild ross by the window's side
No more wavas in the brsuw i . a
The scattered stones look desolate,
The sod they rested on
Has been plowed up by stranger hands,
fitnoe you and I were gone.
The ohesnut tree Is dead, John,
And what is sadder now,
The broken grape-vino of our swing
IlangR on the withered bough, ;
I read our names upon the dark, .
' And found ttie pebbles rare
Laid up beneath the hollow tide,
As wo had piled them there.
Beneath the grass-prown bank, John,
1 looked tor oar uld spring j
That bubbled down the alder path ,
Throe paoea from the swing i
The rushes grow upon the briuk,
The pool is black and bare,
And not a foot for many a day,
It set ins has trodden there.
I took the old blind road, John,
That wandered np the bill
'Tit darker than it used to he,
And seems so loue and still
The birds yet sing upon the boughs
Where once the sweet KrHlp hung,
But not a voice of human kind
Where all our voices rung.
I sat me on (he fence, John,
That standH ai in old time,
The same bulf panel In the path
We used so ol't to climb
' And thought how, o'er the bars of life.
Our playmates bad pained on,
And left me counting on the spot
The faciei that were gone.

An immonne mass meclin of tho
Di'inoiTitcy of Clvi'tnont mid U'tirrcn
counties, O., wit hultl nt IjOvuIhikI, on
TucNtitiy, Aug. 2l'd. Upon licin; in
trodtiti'd ly llio tlmirimin, Mr. IVn
itlcton said ;
I tlinnk the Stnlc CVntntl Commit
too that they hmo assigned mo to
L ivtland. I bavo so lca-ant a ro
collft'tion of tho lust visit 1 madu here
that tlicy could nut havo given me a
moro ugrceitblo appointment with
which to commence tho duties assign
ed to me during the canvanA. Almost
tho last poll lien i speech which I outdo
was hero. Soon alter I met with nn
Accident which kept mo a cloao pi-inon
or for a long timo, and whoso cft'oct
prevented me from taking an active
part in the canvass for tho lust two
years.
Kuncction lias not increased tno ac
rimony of my tempor, nor ltd me to
look with loan charity upon tho mo
tives of our fellow cilizons who dill'er
with ds. More and more Intro I come
to bco that tho widest difference ol
opinion and conduct in political mat
ters are consiHtcnt with the most un
geltiith patriotism and purest motives.
In thin canvass while 1 shall Kpoak
with the plainest htnjUiigoof tho jinn
ciples and policy ol' tho Kcpnliiican
party, 1 shall endeavor to do entire
jnstico to tho intentions and motives
ol men.
TIIK MEMOBY Of VALLANDKIIIAM.
Who can commence tho discussion
of political questions without being
carried involuntarily to that sccno ol
anguiuh and death which so lately
clothed our party', our Stale, and our
country in mourning?
"Tho silver cord is loosened ; the
golden howl is broken."
Tho voico that spoke so eloquently
and w ell is stilled. Tho intellect which
thought o truly exerts its powers on
other subjects j in other spheres. The
strong bravo heart heats not to tho
conflicts of time.
When I think of thiH I fcol that wc
might imitate tho captives of Jtidca,
who, "by tho waters of Dabylnn, hung
their burps, on the willows and sat
down and wept when they remember
ed Zion ;" I did not know Air. Vullan
digham so long, perhaps, as many of
you, but 1 know him very well, Da
ting his service in Congress I wits his
colleague. During the eventful session
of 101 2 8 1 was his daily associate
and intimato friend. During the days
of his arrest and trial and imprison
ment I saw him ul every hour that
it was possible, and dnt v.'l'.iit I (-C
to mili'itu pains which nn llllil-
mous tvriinny inllicled. In nil tlinse
times of anxiety, und caro, anil sufl'er
ing, I never heard from bis lip ono
word inconsistent with the loftiest
patriotism, the most unfaltering hope,
and tho most iinblenehing couriigo.
You know ha Was uble, ami eloquent,
and sell reliant and studious; Ihut ho
lm.1 "rcat Blrerig'li of will und force ot
character, and magnetism which
attracted and attached men closely to
him. Ho wus u 1 -so cool, and deliberate,
and patient. Ucyond most men whom
1 linvo Known, no was sensmvo u nt
tnclf upon the purity of motives of his
character. I have seen him wounded
to the nuick his heart luecitiled until
it seemed sore to tho touch, and bleed-
In IT his life awav by tho vindictive,
savago abtiso so unsparingly heaped
npon him during the war. Never
wcro amicus more unjuev uiiu nu..
mous. No man loved his country
moro intensely, and sought for tho
wisest policy moro conscientiously, or
would havo sacrificed moro roudily or
morn abundantly houllh. and slronirth,
and fortuno, and oven projudieo and
prcoonceived opinions, to socure its
welfare llo would huva been a war
mun if ho could havo believed the war
would resioro tho Union. Ho would
have boen a devoted supporter of the
Jtepubliean party if ho could have bo
lievod its policy would have maintain
od tho irunratileea of liberty BfTnrded
by our Constitution. As ho eould not
believe this, he would not swerve from
tho conviction of the "faith that was
in him," oven though his heart should
bloed and break at the blind miscon
struction of hi character, and the
willul perversion of his word and
aspersiou of bia fnc-ti'M' . I Mwik

CLEA11FIELD, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 4,
God he lived long enough to soo that
time the Avenger, in whom ho bad
such unwavoring faith had", com
menced hi work : and that many
who had maligned him most were be
ginning to soo their error and to do
him justice.
1 thank Cod that at tho last the sun
penetrated the darkness of tho night,
and that lus eye saw, even though
only for a moment tho mists of the
morning dissolving before its radiant
beams. And it it bo eiven to men
who have gone heneo to caro for, or
to Know, tl;o estimation in which they
are held on earth, 1 know his spirit
win oo giuduencd by the tact that all
bis countryman, without dissent, will
believe that lie w pure ns ho was

RKAI1INU RADICAL BPKKCIItg ON OLD
OCKAN.
Thrco weeks ago to day I wus on
tho ocean. It was ft dark, dump, dis
agreeable voyage. The sun and
moon had not appeared for many days
Clouds, and mist, und fog hung around
tho ship, and the fog boll tolled its
fearful clant; incessantly.. I had re
covered from sea sickness, and natu
rally turned for some light and pleas
ant rending. A friend hud sent mo to
Liverpool a . package ot American
nowspapors. 1 turned them ovor, and
my eves rested on tho proccedintrs of
too Kepuiilicun Convention and tho
speech of Senator Shermnn. I com
menced it. 1 ho interest deepened os
I read on. Tho fwr in tho sky und
the dampness on the deck were for
gotten. What a pictnro ho drew of
til this Kepublienn Administration .
What a piclnro ho drew of national
prosperity and felicity ! All to ho at
tributed to this Administration ! The
country and (Jovernment so grest by
reason of tins administration that they
commanded the admiration and re
spect of every nation in tho world 1
Our power and sense ofjustico such
that no lately outstanding quest ion had
not been settled to our iulinito honor,
and our iufinilu ndvanluiru I Our nat
ural sell appreciation stiinuliited hy
tho evident appreciation of othors !
At homo there was peace "within our
borders and prosperity within our
gales! A benign contentment per
vaded till our people, atliichiui! them
to ouch other in Iraluitial love, and
binding all in filial reverence and obe
dience It) n paternal and bonoflecnt
Administration 1 Liberty c;.jryod in
order! Just law implicity obeyed I
Penco, liberty and prosperity! A
trinity of blessings ! A brotherhood
unbroken ! The dutios and obligations
of a Government so liirlit as to be
known only by their blessings I Bad
prnwion already subjugated, soon to
jc eradicated ! I 'funds already litrht,
soon to bo mado lighter!! Taxe al
ready smull, soon to bo mado smaller:
Public debt, already almost nothing,
soon to be'mude less 1 ! Tho Adminis
tration ulreudy pure, boon to be mado
holy ! I And Grunt, lately the mailed
soldier, lately the incarnation of force,
already becotno "ono among ten thou
sand, and soon lo become "ultogclhor
loVely ! 1"
General Grant followed Shormnn.
He was onthitsed by this glowing pic
ture. Even his imagination could only
surlily a color or add u tint which the
Senator had omitted. In a style of
his own ho soured in tho empyrean
and caught tho rosiest hue which
gilds tho "how of beauty and of prom
ise." llo descended to tho lowest
depth of ocean and brought tip the
tiniest and purest drop which lingered
there, that he might catch il bright
est sparkle, us tho sun kissed it on Ihe
crest of tho billow. And with these
ho warmed the brilliant picture I
bowed my bend in joy. I thanked
God tlmt the day of Millemal huppi
noss hud come, ily mirnrise wits
equal to my plenstira. I knew our
worthy President hud tasted of saving
grace in tho puro nir of Washington,
and that, having added works to faith,
ho had escaped the condemnation that
ho who careth not for his household is
woiso than an infidel; and that hav
ing done so well at homo he hud turn
ed his effort to tho island of tho sea.
Hut 1 did not know that all our poo
pie wore so happy ; that ull our conn,
try was so smiling j "that tho moun
tains skipped liko rnniH, and the little
hills like lambs." My soul was filled
with impatience to bo ut homo. Tho
ship seemed to movo moro slowly.
The clouds seemed to become drearier,
tho mist still heavier. I felt, as the
old hymn has il
"Op Jordan, stormy bnnks I stand, and oa'ft a
; wistful era
To Canaan's fair and happy land, whore my pos
sessions lie."
But also! in nn evil hour I read
further. I read Morton' speech, in
which he snys that every bad passion
is let looso at the .South, and stimula
ted nnd fostered by tho Democrat ol
tho North, und that murder, nssussinu
lion, rapino und discord ('tighten honcsl
men and honest capilai from tho hind,
and honcBt negroes from the polls. I
reud Perry's speech, in which ho says
that If inis present oud, which is no
bigger than a man's thumb, is not suf
ficient to produco order, tho next shall
ho larger and heavier than a man'
thiifli. I read tlmt the Ku Klux Com-
milteo, having satin Washington, felt
it necessary to face these evils in their !
home, iiU't in sit In JOileign, nnti unnr
lesion, nnd New Orleans. I reud thu
Kn Klux bill, with its manifold con
trivance for destroying disorder hy
destroying liberty, and for avenging
protended crimes to individuals upon
tho whole country, by suspending the
writ oduihrat corpus, and by destroy
ing tho snbstnnce, nnd even tho form
of constitutional government. I rend
tho election bill, which make of free
choice a farce, and subjects the returns

n these two speeches there is but
onj' solid, substantial, thorough truth,
ami thut is that tho Ifepublicun party

ana ntaio uoverntnents lor ten yours,
und that it i responsible for tho pres
ent condition ot tho country. More
than Bix years havo been of uninter
rupted peace. In every direction und
in every respect its policies linvo been
carried out without lot or obstruction.
And, gentlemen, in tho fuco of this ud
milled fact, I say that whutover of
peace exists in the land, is duo to the
puticneo and forbearance of a great
pcoplo, North aud South, in splto of a
policy which, in Its general scopo nnd
it purllculur measures, has boen vio
lative of every constitutional provision
and calculated to excite thoir hatred
and call out their bitterness, nnd to
sting lulo disorder, and even rebellion

ever inutoriul prosperity exists in the
hind is duo to thu bciieficcneo of lift
lure and llio industry of man, in spile
of a p;:licy which has closed up every
natural channel of trade, which bus
violated cvory sound principle of fi
nance, and has robbed toiling labor of
its adequato and just rcwurd. .
1 TIIKKK PEACK?
Gentlemen Republican ! is there
peace in this land? If 'there is, why
this pcrpotual crusade aguinsl the
people of tho South 1 Why this in
famous legislation, w hich, in order to
frighten them, saurifiue the denrest
rights and liberties wo havo? Why
this ingenuity in irritating and oxcil
iug their passions und then flaunting
in their faces thu red right hand of
threatened chastisement ? If there is
not ponce, then you confess that your
policy has failed. Then yon confess
that your reconstruction acts and the
State Government set under thorn, ex
ecuted by Carpet bagger, Onforced hy
military power, and commanded by a
multitudinous swarm of postmasters,
collectors, marshals and judges, ha
failed. 1 put it to you ns honest men,
i it not timo to change this policy,
and to hand over the task to oilier
more competent men ?
18 THEItK PROSPERITY f
Is there prosperity f You havo a
titritf which yields in. n o than two hun
dred millions gold a year. You have
an internal revenue system which
yields nearly one hundred and filly
millions a your, lour Administra
tion kits a larger income than any
troveromoiit in tho world. Sincoyour
advent into power you have collected
moro than a thousand million ol dol
lars. You tuko to yourselves gneat
credit that you have paid iwo hundred
and thirty millions of the public debt,
and yet "you admit that in doing so
you liuvo unnecessarily, wantoMy,
without tho seniUlunco ol justico, nnd
in llio faco of tho decisions of the Su
premo Court, wasted twcnty-livo mil-1
lion of dollars. Twenty millions of
dollar moro you liuvo paid each year
as a bonus to the bunks of the country,
whilo labor groans and trade staguutes
under Ihe exaction which you iinposo
upon their earnings.
Is thcro prosperity? Ask llio
hunker, and ho will toll you that di J
count and exchanges, the test of ac
tive money, are very low. " Ask the
railroads, und you will find thut their
passenger and freight, ihe lost of
active trade, are reduced twenty,
forty and even a larger per eoiituge.
Ask tho merchants of Cincinnati, and
they will lell.you their country custo

and they will tell you tho demand for
their article is very slack. Ask the
country storkeopors and Ihey will tell

Ask the farmers), and they will toll you
that they are holding back theircrops
and their cattle for better price. Ask
tho laborer, and ho will tell you that
employment is acitrco, and that wages
will scarcely enable him to cko out
meat for his family.
I do nut desire to overdraw llns
picture This is my observation. I
pul it to you voit who represent
every department ol industry and bu
siness whether thcro Is not this stag
nation every whero ?
Ark men who have failed why Ihey

or fail.
FINANCIAL POLICY OP TIIK BKI UBLICAN
PARTY.
Gentlemen, it is true, it must bo so.
This i tho natural result of llio finun
chd policy of the Republican party.
During tlie war a niillion of mon wore
taken from the ranks of producers nntl
placed among tho consumers: an ex
panding currency, stimulated lo an
unusual, nnd porhap unnatural, ac
tivity in every branoh of industry.
Tho Government furnished an absorb
ing murkct for almost overy product.
The apparent profit created fancied
wnnts, which could be gratified at ul
most nny cost. Business was intoxi
cated with the excitement or "fluli
timo." When the war censed those
onnstnnor wore remitted to their pos.
ilion of producer. They needed work.
The government market wis Instantly
closod, and tho only substitute wo
REPUBLICAN.

tho demnnd of iheso discharged sol
diors and of tho impoverished South.
Tlie debt, funded nnd floalinL'. nil had
boon created under an increasing ntir-
roncy, ana at mo highest price. Tax
ation, tho amount of which wn neces
sarily onnrmous, must bo paid, every
dollurof it, by tho earnings of labor.
Now, what was the dictuto of reason
I will not say of financiul learning
but of plain, common souse? Obvi
ously it was to pursue such a policy
as would foster trade and offer fuir re
turns for cntorpriso and industry, and
secure to activity nn ample, generous
rewura, lo encourage bold, brave men
to open tip new channel for constant
and hopeful labor. This policy would
furnish employment lo thoso millions
or men.- their necessities would fur
nish a market, and their wages would
pay the prices. Industry thus fostered
would yield its uro return. Tho
prico of labor, and of Iho products of
moor inns maintained, would hoar
their burden of taxation cheerfully,
nt least without suffering. Public
creditor would be paid in full. The
tttx pnyor would not bo harnessed, and
when tho debt wus puid or equitably
adjusted, tlie transition from war to
peace could have been mado without
tho shock or punio which havo been
foil. It only needed a steady baud to
keep tho currenry nt it proper height.
It only needed to keep tho warm, rich
blood so much as li e system hud ul
reudy shown that il could utilize
coursing through Ihe arterie and re
turning through the veins, riot blind
ly or elso wickedly, with their eyes
open they adopted a different policy.
Thoy discouinged enterprise, Ihey
pulsied activity, and closed the aven
ues of industry. They kept idle Iheso
millions of men. I'bcy closed the
markets, they caused tiilling prices,
and whilo they decreased the nominal
amount of tho debt Ihey increased tho
acttinl burdens of taxation. They con
tracted the currency, and thus injured
every mini in the community except
tho private creditor und tlie public
bondholder. And, not content with
this, they exempted thu bondholder
from taxation, and insisted upon (lay
ing him not only his debt, but ulso n
bonus of ten or twelve or fifteen per
cont. for receiving it. And this policy
ha been pursued until this day. In
the mean time, taxation bus been kepi
up to moro than four hundred millions
of dollar per annum. Tho currency
has been decreased more than three
hundred millions. And the bonded
debt of tho country, though nominally
reduced two hundred und thirty mil
lion, has been ucluully inci'onscd in
weight andloppreBsivciics. Tho earn
ings of t.tir country nro supposed lo be
sixteen hundred millions ol dollars.
TAXATION.
Our taxation is equal to twenty fivo
per cent, of all the earnings, of all the
intellect and all tho ingenuity and
labor of every man, and womnn, and
child in the country. I it not true
that nothing could hnvo saved u from
tho ruin of this policy except the un
paralleled fertility of our soil, and tho
wonderful energy and activity of our
people? This whole policy, in ull
feutiirc ; its contraction of currency;
it establishment of banks; funding of
tho debt ; purchasing of llio bonds ;
paying them in gold; tuxutinn and
tariffs, is in the interest of capilai and
10 tho injury ol lubor one and air of
these measure are designed to, and
do, in fuel, benefit llio capitalist at the
expense of tho working masses.
No country in tho world ha a sys
tem so onerous a our internal revenue
system. It is unequal, unjust, inquis
itorial. It has held out temptation to
dishonesty, and rewards to dishonor
11 has rendered revenue affidavits bus
pocled ns "dicer- oaths." It bus
niinlo perjury und bribery common, if
not rospcctuule. il ha linen tno
land with spies, informers and pimps,
who have imposed upon honesty the
burdens (rum hich-vice has corruptly
bought exemption. It has realised
the time
"When knaros and foe's o'er nil prernil,
And weigh out Just lo In a golden rea!c."
RINliS AND MONEY IN CONUKKSH.
Tim whole system of tho li.'pnhli
enn party produce this result. 1 will
not trace tho mean; tho result i ho
fore us. The legislation of Congress
on taxation, und tariffs, und hanks,
und railroad, i controlled by tings,
and influenced hy money ; on political
questions; on Kit Klux hills; nn the
Han llomingo treaties, by iho interfer
ence of the President nnd the bribery
of hi pationngo. Public offices tire
bought by present or awarded lo
needy relatives. Defalcation are ns
frequent a tho weeks, and neither
restitution isenl'orccd nor punishment
nwarded. Corruption hide not its
head in secret places, but flaunt itself
in tho ptiblio gar.e. j
So com mon is this dial every official
act is believed tn ho in tho interest of
n job, und there is not in tho govern
menl a character so pure us not lo bo
suspected of pnrlictpitling in its profits.
Tho obligation of official duly sit
lightly upon tho President; can wo
wonder that his subordinate fail to
pel form theirs? Gentlemen, I say
this sadly ; but it i Biimelimes heller
that the ear should ho shocked with
tho expression ol a sentiment wincn
lie silent in every heart.

need not err therein ; so apt, o fitting
that il reconciled liberty und law nnd

llio doctrine of a strict construction of
tho Constitution. These are the es
sential elements of tho system. Tho
right of Iho Stales ns Ihey tire defined
in tho Constitution nnd no where else;
and riot otherwise. Tho Constitution
as it is, fairly read, according lo the
open nnd common meaning of its
terms not contracted by ingenuity
on the one hand nor cnlurged by gresp
ing ayarico of power on tho other.
This is tho means of our safety, as it
Is tbo Shibboleth of our faith. Tho
Constitution hits hecomo, in the months
of Iicpuhlicans, a by word ur.d a re
proucli. Since Senator Wade aunoueu
ed thill anybody who parted about the
Constitution was u traitor, tho party
lias acted on that, basis. If a favorite
mcusuto was thought to be uncousli
lutionul, they amended the Constitu
tion, or violated it, ns scorned most
easy. Lcgisluttiros, elected hy fraud
or force, were the sure nnd approved
means. If theso were too tedious or
too long, nn net of Congress or nn
Executive proclamation was always
at hand.
BAYONET ELI.CI10.V LAW.
I will not go back even for a few
year. Tho lust Congress pnssed an
election law. It provided that in all
cities of a certain sizo tho President
might appoint inspectors and regis
ters of election, whose authority and
acts ho will maintain hy Iho army
nnd navy of the United State, (ion.
Grant sought lo enforce it in New
York, Pennsylvania und Now Jersey,
and culled forth un indignant rebuke
from tho Governors of those Stales.
THE KU Kl.t'X LAW.
The present Congress passed a Ku
Klux bill. Do you remember its pro
vision? Whenever llio President
shall believe thut in any State a com
hina'.ion of person shall seek to do
pnvo any man of his rights, thu Pros
ident may take jurisdiction of the sub
ject, nnd, if in his opinion the State
uullioi Hies shall be unable or unwil
ling to redress the wrong, ho may
suspend tho writ of habeas coipvs, do
claro martial law, oust the uiithoritjes
of all their powers and fundi. his, shut
up iho courts, dismiss the juries, uu
scut the judges, and lake redress nnd
punishment into his own hands.
Gentlemen, do ynu appreciate thin
law ? A month ago a mob entered a
jail in Illinois and hung one of the
prisoners, iho .'resident might, un
dor this Inw, suspend tho writ of habe
as corpus in thut Stule, and establish
there a military government. In the
city of Now York u riot occurred and
live woro lost. Tho President miht
under this law suspend tho present
government in that Stato, and govern
it by tho army and his generals,
ti rant's usurpation op POWEIt.
Gen. Grant will never use these
power wrongfully, say his sycophant.
Gentlemen, this is tlie insanity of folly.
Ho will apply it whenever passion is
to bo gratified or elections are to bo
carried, lie ha never refused to ex
ercise power. When Georgia voted
ngainsl him for President ho asked
authority to suspend tho the Stale
Government. When Congress delayed,
or in the end refused it, ho sent Gen.
Terry lo piny dictator there.
When North Carolina did not obey
his wishes, he sent a military force to
uphold Gov. llolden. When ha want
cd a delegation in tho next Itcpuhli
can Convention for llio Slate of Lou
isiana, bo directed that tho Conven
tion should bo held in the United
Slates Court room, and that no one
should bo admitted except on tho au
thority of the Marshal, and that a tile
of soldiers should maintain thai liu
Ihority. When ho desired lo secure
Iho annexation of San Domingo, lie
did not hesitato to take money from
tho Treasury in defiance of law, and
pay it in ndvanco of the submission of
the treaty 4o the Senalo. lie did mil
hesilnto lo stipulate that ho would
keep il existence sect el until ho had,
by tho use of his personal and politi
cal influence, secured it ratification
by the Senate.
When Sumner stood in his way he
did not hesitate to eject him from the
Cnmniilleo on Foreign Pelations.
And now, whilo the Senate is consid
ering ihe treaty, lie secures from pri
vate person the money and pay the
second instalment of Iho pnn liiise.
There is a p iny in San Ihitningo op
posed to annexation. It begin to
inikn headway. Thereupon General
Grunt send tho army und navy of tho
United Slitlcs to protect his vendor in
power.
I need not eharncteiizo Iheso acts.
Mr. Sumner, in hi phicc in the Senate,
said :
"All this ha been dono by the
kimrlv nrei'iii'iitivo tihme, without the

such U transaction, ninny hcaihlcd in

Wlint other sacred obligation of inter-
national law may not ho violated?
What other foreign nation may not

menace many not be heralded ? What
other kingly prerogative may not be

Mr. Schura, iu his place in llio Sen

To further by force of nrnu a btul
