Radical jouniuliHtn, who have bocamo
tired of carrying auehcornipt carcases
aa Butler. Pawos, Colfax, . homller,
Morton and tho rent of tho Credit Mo

overwhelming defent.

villum outsido of a penitentiary, Xm.
B. Munn, tho head centre of the State
ring and city ballot-box stutters, who
was defeated for District Attorney by
Pui-man Shipyard, Democrat.
Look orr for Wak. Now that tho
'Army will not bo needed down South
for the yurpoao of carrying cleetioni,
tho Indians will bo put on tho war
path again, so as to give mule and pro
nidinn dealers a chance to turn an
honest penny in tho furnishing of ma
teriul for a war with tho red man.
.Jk Wisns. Grant's thanksgiving
proclamation will no doubt bo appre
ciated by such discarded heroes as
Gen. Ncglcy, Gen. Whito, Col. Curtis
and tho gang of corrtiptionistu who
have been requested hy the peoplo to
remain at homo with their families for
tho rest of their lives.
H is reported that the editor of the
Tima, who a few weeks ago took a
contract tobuild a $150,000 Poor Houso,
has abandoned the job. Ho evidently
thinks thoro is nothing "in it" since
tho election, or tho "ring" nightmare
may have frightened him. Poor imbe
cile, let him lio away to his heart's
content.

tion, Blair county gave Hartranft 1,021
majority, yot on the 3d Reilly, dem
ocrat, for Congress, carried tho county
by 83, and the Democrats elected hvor-
hart for Assembly by 341 majority ,and
their nominee for Register & Recorder
by 38 majority.whilo tho Radical State
ticket has bnt 104 majority. Wnirroun
ty, 1ms done nobly.
A Solimn Warni&o. Two years
ago Harry White and James A. White
both voted to strike tho word white out
of our State Constitution. Last week
both these gentleman went before tho
people and asked to be Bent to Con
gress, (the luttor from tho Mercer dis
trict), but tho peoplo struck both these
HVuffsoutof that body. A little rough
on tho IVhita, but they begun it T
Fai.sk Hops. Our Tyrone neigh
bors expected to send two of their citi
zens to llarrisburg this winter, in tho
capacity ot members of tho Assembly,
Dr. Christy, Hem., and "Davo" Cald
well. Rad.. had been selected. But
somehow, the people did not ratify
Tyrono's movement. Kverhart, Dora
and Rawlins, Rad., will attend to that
business tho coming two years.
A Gain. The Legislature erected
tho counties ol Franklin and Hunting-
don into a Radical Senatorial District.
The Democrats nominated Camber
McKibben and elected him hy COO ma
jority. Many of our Clearfield folks
will remember Mr. McKibben as tho
proprietor of the Merchant's Hotel,
Philadelphia, for a number of years.
Ho resides at Chambcrsburg, Franklin
county.
Deounh). The four-doublo-letterod
veteran, Russell Krrott, Chairman ol
tho Rudlcal State Committee, was
candidate for United Stales Senator
before the alovtion, but ho hats ii
declined the honor, and will allow the
next Legislature to elect some Demo
crat to that position. There is a sample
of unselfishness in this which only such
heroes as Errott can display. He can
now fully develop himself in the col
umns of the Pittsburgh Ommrrcuu.
The "Tax Unmix" Fki.lows. The
people havo been greatly enlightened
on the tax question recently, by such
luminaries as Brnincrd, Kramer and
Walter Barrett. Wo havo examined
the records tor three years past and
find that those throo patriots have
paid the following amounts of comity
tax into tlie Treasury, via:

An Awn i. Holt. When the Radi
cal legislature, two yean ago, appor
tioned the State in Congressional Dis
tricts, they so gerrymandered it that
the Democrats could only elect 7 out
of tho 27 members, although we had
within 25.000 as many votes as the
Radicals. This was esteeinod fairness
by the lenders of that party. On
Tuesday, the 3d, tho peoplo for the
first time passed upon this Infamous
apportionment bill, and tho result Is
that the IeinocTaU elect 17 and the
Radicals only 10 member. The rcvo-
Anion Is astonishing and will be good
ibod io,rfl4Klion fur the men who sot
in will uf the '(uupls at doflance by
Hit passage of the bill lit question.
T1IK MAGXlTimK OF THE
RE VOLUTION.
Wo arc nmuxed at the victories wol
won on tho 3d of JJovembor. The
people, ut one sweep, delivers tho gov
ernment ol two-thirds of the Suites
composing this Virion, as well as Coav
gross, into the bands of tho Democratic
party. The political mvohitioa ts
colussal'anJ astounding thai the peo
ple cannot fully comprehend It mag
nitude till they withdraw their gaso
from tho whole and look at it In some
of ill more significant particulars. ' '
In 1872 tho States of Massachusetts,
New York, Now Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois,, wliiuh ex
tend in an uiibrokun lino from tho At
Inulio eonst to the Mississippi river,
mid overy one of which Grant curried,
gave him 4111 aggregate majority of
307,000.
This full these seven Slates have- all
gono against Grant hy an aggregate
majority of 133,000. .
. The history of politics in all the five
states of tho world does not furnish a
parallel ftir so great a change as this.
In tho present Houso of Reprcscn
tetivos, elected two years ago, (hunt
secured a majority of oue hundred and
two. The elections of this full show
that in the next Honso there will he
an anti-Grant majority of seventy -five
at the least. ... , i
In 110 election in tho country here
tofore has there been so great a change
from one Congress to its immod'uUo
successor as now.
It is by the light of such fuels us
those that wo cun gaugo tho dimen
sions of tho crashing disaster which
has overtaken Grant's Administration.
Tho victory in our own good old
Pennsylvania is complete 111 all its
parts. Tho Democrats havo clotted
their Stato ticket by from 5.000 to
8,000 majority, although tho Radicals
carried tho State last year by over 25,
000. We have elected 17 out of the
27 members of Congress, und have
secured a majority of 11 on joint ballot
in the Legislature, aud thereby scoured
a United Slntes Senator, In tho room
of John Scott, the present Radical in
cumbent. Besides t his wo have elected
a regimont or two of county oflieors in
tho Radical counties throughout the
Slate.
Tho Army will bo needed no longer
in the South, to supHrt and protect
Carpet-bagger and thieves while rob
bing tho taxpayers, but tho soldier
should lie posted ulong tho western
border, to defend and protect tho set
tlers from the bullet and tho scalping
knife. This is the legitimate duty of a
soldier iu times of peace. Tho Army
was novot raised for tho purpose of
stuffing ballot boxes and protecting
freebooters. The people du not pay
taxes to support it for that purpose,
and wo think wo can safely say that
"a now departure", is at bund and
those iu ower had better execute it,
or it will thunder louder yet.
Alt. RiaiiT. We have received ecv
oraMottors from friends at Ansonvillo,
giving in detail the false and audacious
statements made against others and
ourself by a certain political vagrant on
tho occasion of tho Modoc gathering
at that place, a few weeks ago. The
individual alluded to by the writers is
no more responsible for what ho said
than tho bora a used hy the musicians
on that occasion are for tho noise they
made. His bold fulseboods may startle
strangers, but his tongue is iin)iotnt
for truth, and can utter no libel wheie
he is personally known. Young as he
is, his veracity is worn out, so tar as
his street comer accusations against
his neighbors and his stump efforts go.
lio is a general accuser and abuser of
everybody. Ho possesses rare abilities
for that, and it is tho only thing ho
has over succeeded in. He is without a
rival.
Gonb Tuaoiuii. The ' Hunisburg
slate," which troubled some peoplo so
exceedingly during the past Summer,
seems to bo tho only "ring" movement
that the people approved on election
day, although two of tho most power
ful names on record were pitted against
it, , We allude to CYIil'S, the Persian
Monarch and the happy genius, as ho
was termed and A LEX A NDKR, son of
Philip of Maccdon, who cried because
ho had no more worlds to conquer.
The Bcllcfonto individual, we under
stand, is crying about something else.
If he -cannot sneered in doing what his
memorable namesake did, let bun
conquer himself and lead tho life of a
merk man. Having dashed the Sena
torial oup from bis lips, ho cannot com
plain of his exilo by the people. O I
that "slute," that borriblo "shite how,
like a nightmare it haunts 1110 !
E.:Kl.LrNT. Governor Hurtiuufl ap
pointed James Painter President Judge
for Armstrong eounly; under the new
Constitution.' Painter was of course
nominated by tho Rads, and to innko
his election doubly ,suro, ho and, his
friend suocceded in some way in get
ting nut a renegade Democrat, namod
Golden, to defeat Boggs, tho Demo
cratic nominee, and thus secure Pain
ter's overwhelming election. But the
people took it into their heads to do
something else. I Jackson Boggs was
olected by nearly eight hundred ma
jority, in a county that gave Hartranft
941 majority two years ago, Hucu
"thundering" voting as the people
mado on tho 8d Is past all comprehen
sion, except so far: It nil tallied on tho
Democratic side. ,. , ,
Rino Smashino. Tho 3ii of Novem
ber was a terrible day a ring smash
ingday. ThoCiirwciisvilloOiew Wash-ington-Karthaiis
ring was busted into
aliont 1,200 pieces; tho Harrishurg-
Cameron ring is broken all to pieces;
the Philadelphia-Maun ring has lcoii
so treated that there is an end te it,
while tho Pittslmrg-Mackey-KiTell ring
has been so badly busted that it lets in
two Democratic Congressmen, bno Sen
ator and eleven members of the Legis
lature, although that locality has here
tofore given 10,000 majority for that
ri"8'" ' ' '-",''.
Dkfrated. Carloton 11. Curtis, who
was elected to Congress from tlris dis
trict two years ago, was defeated by
Dr. Egbert, of Franklin. The District,
as constituted under the now appor
tionment, is composed ff the counties
ofErio, Venango and Warren.., Those
ooontle gave Urant 6,837 . majority.
two years ago, and Hartnuifl lor Gov
ernor 3,620. Notwithstanding these
immense majorities, Curtis . was , re
quested by the people to stay at home
and let Democrat fill hi plaoej

The "While Leagues" did most liw-
fully behave themselves In the neigh
boring counties 011 tho 3d of Novem
ber. To illustrate j In tho Mil Con
gressional district, composed of the
counties of Jt'iimbi'lu, iti'dliird, lllulr
and Souieiwt, Gov. llaitranft 'had a
majority ol'3,5:JS,twoyeuiw Of'o. John
Kellly.or Altoona, wus the IK'niocrutiu
nominee and S. H, Blair, of llotliduys
burg, tho liudiciil, Tho former wns
ejected by 1,235 majority.
The XXV district lies on our west-
crn bonier and is composed of Arm
strong, Clarion, Forest,' Indiana uud
Jcffcrsoii. '. Those counties gavo Hart
ranft 2,11-lniajorlty. . George A. Jenks,
of Brookvlllo, was the Democratic, nnd
General Htmy Whito, of Indiuiui, the
Ilndicnl, candidate. Jenks wus elected
by near 800 majority. White has been
tho Hudicul leader iu tho Statu Senate
for six years, and had this district
specially mud for himself, so as lo
transfer his blowing machine to ush
iliglon.. The detent of this notorious
demagoguo is second only to Hon But
ler's, although tho former docs not
possess half the ability of the latter.

TlIK P.KSI I.T IH T1IK Cot'NTV. The
official vote of this county will bo i'ound
in tubular form elsewhere in this issue.
Tho majorities exceed our expectations.
Wo claimed 1.200 oil tho State ticket,
uud ubout 1,000 on the county ticket.
Tho Democratic voto is 000 short of
that cast for Buckalcw und the Radi
cal about 400 less than that received
hy llaitrana in 1872. Had our full
voto been out-our majority would have
been 1,700, But then it is too big now,
wo would rather have loss than more,
but If our opponents will not let us off
with less wo will of course tally it to
tho use of our party. Tho result is
glorious. .

'TllR BANNKttl'ot'NTV." Tho liudi-

tho fact it gavo a larger majority for
that party than any other county In
the State. . Two years ago, Grunt had
10,000 and Hart rand 10,000 majority,
respectively. Tho Democrats on the
3d elected 10 of tho 14 member of As

members of Congress, District A tteruoy

of -their contents and '"greenbacks"

urally his conversation took lurnl

out into national politics:
Aa to the election in Philadelphia

The Myers isirtion of the treachery

which was treason to me. lie regu

whole voto wus brought out, nearly
Utl.tltlU stitnig, and there would huve
been 5,0(10 more votes but for the
change In the costitution in rcgurd to

DemiH'ruls polli-d less than they polled
for lluckalew or llt-Cliirc. Tlie ina
jority on our Slafu ticket is Hourly 13,

oi-gaiiiuition and a strength unseen
anywhere else iu the country.
Yes, to your direct tpiestiou I mi)
const ruined to answer that it coi'tninly
looks lo me ns though tho lie puhliciin
party were utterly gone. The Demo
crats now have the organizations of
tho various Stales ; all doubtful men,
all the non-party men, all the desert
ers from thu Republican ranks w ill tie
going with them, and they'll Ihi likely
to grow stronger. They have the
lower houso in Pennsylvania mid the
Suite ullli-ci-H, and bow are we to re
trieve the disaster? When we were
iu a condition similar to this six yours
ago, ow ing to Johnson's defection, we
organised a movement hero in Phila
delphia iu favor of Grant. Wo de-clni-ed
ho should bo tho leader and we
rallied round his slnnilunl'. I went to
every w ard in Philadelphia and organ
ised ward campaign clubs, and in the
next election wo curried Philadelphia
triumphantly. This attracted the at
tention of the country and niuterially
aidod in bringing ulsmt tho nomina
tion of Grunt lor the Presidency.
Now, 1 tlo notrsee how the Republi

it is ilr. Illaiue. Hut it requires or

a handsome majority. You usk bow

utterances which were greeted with
such yolls of delight.
That nomination was received with
universal approbation in the Stale be
cause it w as a graceful way of settling
the third term business.
'Why don't I recognise tlie party
with a view to tbe Presidential ques
tion?" 1 do not think it is thu thing
for me to do; my exertions in that be
half wiKildbe hsiked Usui differently
now from w hat they were bcfbi-e. I

MR, Jo n Jit I.I.Kit,
Chiiirmuii of the Denux-ratic State

most deserving of credit ftir tbe innu

lie says:
The DeiniK'ratic party ought lotuke

to retain the power w hich has been so
unfxpeclfKlly thrust upon litem, nu
havo nothing whatever to do with tho
alavery question now. It is the duty
of Democrats to tako up the things of

The civil rights bill ought never lo Iss
passed ill mercy to tlie negro In the

the si at (i of things will bo similar to
that Which iinsluced the Kit-Ulan Ves

AS TO TIIK riNANCKS,
the Democratic party Is not niiited on
the policy to be pursued in i-egaix! to
the currency, but tbo best interests of
the country cerfninly demand that we
should have a stable currency, such as
provided iv gold and silver ns a hasls.
The logic of events will work out this
lustier of Iho nuances. The idea that
the DeniiMirals are In fltvor of repudi
ation, partial or complete, Municipal,

"WHAT AUK TIIK fAI'SKr
of this tivmendous change," do you
ask? These causes would seein to be
very uiinurent ; chief among them is
llte geiierul dissiilislaction with the
conduct of the men the Republican
puny have put In power In thu .Muni
cipal, Slate and 'atioiiul oilict-s. : We
can hardly esteem this as exclusively
a party victory, ilr. Tildun but ech
oes my views when ho says wo don't
claim it as a party success. Messrs.
Shcppiirtl, Goddtii-d and Iho Stuto otli
ccrs were elected hy the good men in
both parties. The Doimx-mtie nrgith
izutiou was only used by tbo good
sense of tho peoplo in correcting the
intolerable evils which tho government
now inflicts upou all the people alike.
It is tho policy if the government in
imposing its immense taxation upon
the people that bus destroyed tho pow
er of the industrial interests to lnuin
tain themselves, and tho only remedy
lies iu carrying into every bi-auch of
government the strictest economy ami
rigid accountability of officials. Tlie
Congress just elected will not be in
power for a year hence, and ill the
mciintimo so many changes must lake
place that it would be idle to attempt
lo ewy what particular plan should lie
adopted to relievo the jH'nplo of the
present load wo are now st4iggering
under. 1 see from New York they
are going to call a meeting of all pa
triotic nnd "judicious" men to consider
what is best to be (lone. It would bo
folly to suppose that tho numbers of
i'ATUIOTIC ASn DIM-MET MtN
who are chosen by the Democratic
party would be likely to lull into any
grave error as to a line of policy which
will Isj intended to enable them to
furnish relief tn tbe country.
STATE SENATOR WILLIAM A. WALLACK,
who so often and so ably led tho Dcm-ts-rntic
party iu the Slute during tho
days of its minority at the head of their
.State Central Committee, and who is
undoubtedly ouo of the leading minds
in that party, was next approached,
and gave the following as Ins views:
Tho causes which huve largely con
tributed in Pennsylvania to the results
which are so apparent thmnghont tlie
whole country to-day, may bo found
in thu existence of the depression in
the four great staples of fho State
iron, coal, binilsur, ami oil fthd the
consequent difficulty of business men
to conduct their business with lieiwfit
to themselves or to relieve themselves
from financial enilsarrassnients, togeth
er with the widespread conviction that
theso results were produced by the
policy of the Administration. That
policy was believed to havo destroyed
our trade with the South and reduced
its productions, and wus snp!imcntcd
by a failure on the part of the Admin
istration to have a settled and defined
financial policy which won Id Impart
confidence to capitalists in their deal
ings with business men. To this are
to be added the fact that in tbe rural
districts monev is exceedingly dear
and scarce ; there is no sale for anv of
the productions of the Stale; tire large
nutiihcr of laborers thrown out of em
ployment bv rettsssn of the depression
in the manufacturing Industries, all of
which is changeable to the loss of a
mnrkct Tor theso productions, the man
ufacturing Interests of the State having
been "
STIMI'LATED BY INFLATION
to so great an extent that the mnrkct
In its reduced condition could not ab
sorb those productions ; the belief that
the expenses of the Administration
were too great, and should be reduced ;
Ibat the rate of interest on tho public
debt was too high, and that those In
power would make no effort to reduce
that rate to a just standard. All these
things wero surely enough to bring
down this parly to even its present
lainentablo plight. You ask, "Do 1
think tho average voter goes that deep
into causes and effects?'' Yes; for it
was clearly demonstrated by accom
plished speaker to the average voter
that ho was to be affected personally
hy a change In the parties in power.
When the great ,
NKUVk THAT RI NS FROM TIIK FOCKKT TO
Till (IHAIN
is touched, then the people stop to
vWuk, : The Demoorutiu party, in its
control ol the Unvemiuunt, will take
no step backward. They will be pro
gressive and true to lbs ideas nimn
which the party was founded. I re-e-ui-d
the omnloviiient at tits m-tuit
black muscle of tjiie tSuiiih in productive
industry as essential to th proaiHTity
of'tb whole body politic, and tins can
not be successfully employed until tlie
brain and energy of tho whites there
bo made frco from the coutltil if
end power, ami poi'iiilltcd to settle
ineirrtwu relations with that muscle.
The government of the South will til
timntely conio to tho control of the
while men, with occasionally n hclm-i
who is no typo of his fellows, but is iui
exception in Intellect and education to
the general rule. 1 ho contract system
between- the whites and the blacks
must be left to settle Itself by the test
and experience of time, free from inter
ference by the General Government. '

TUK WEEK OF JUBILEE
This bus been indeed a week of ju
bilee lor the psoplc ot the w hole coun
try. While the gent-mi result of Tues
day's election was not whollv uiiexncct-
Lul, tho cninpletentMs of the revolution
from Hoston Harbor to tho
Delta nf;
the Misoissiiniiuiid thellioGrauile.toidt
all men by surprise. The lHioplc re-
joico and well may they rejoice over
tho eixnpluleuuss il the victory- ,
If It bud not been decisive; tho
Third Term abomination, ami the
Federal corruption which branching
out finm Washington has lmrnioutod
thu w hole hind, w ould have still lived
to vex tbo people, and unsettle the
country. Hut us it is they ure dead
past all hos of resuscitation. Over
weening ambition ami ntliciiti corrup
tion in its most dangerous lorm have
been put down so emphatically, tlmt
there are none left even lo mourn in
public over their niiourublo graves.
It Is not strange, then, thul the peo
ple should join in a general rejoicing
over their great deliverairco from a
danger that at Inst came to be properly
estimated. Now t lull the peoplo are
once more triumphant oyer n com
bination of puny leaders, w ho have
betrayed every sticrod trust reposed in
them by their constituents, the public,
will Is) aide to jutlgo eon-ectly ot the
injury (hut has been done, and set
about repairing it. This cannot lie
done in a day. It will lake years to
build up what such men ns Butler,
Morton, Carpenter, Conklin, nnd Cam
eron huve torn down.
Hut all theso injuries will be repaired
in time. - The graud old Ship ,of Statu
has been lifldly nbnsed, hernrmrs have
liven broken and her rigging disman
tled, but her keel is Vet as sound as
when she was first lauuelted usn the
political ocean.. 'uw artisans and new
armorers will set her trim and put her
litlore tho winds that will wall her on
her uraiut career, I ho fairest and proud
est barque that ever spread horraiivnas
to tho hrecxe. , -
In a fovr weeks, or mouths ut most,
we will begin to reap tho liencfits of
fho Novemlier elections. Public con
fidence will tie restored, and tho peo
plo. knowing thitrr own Invincible
strength, will rely on it. Tho predic
thnisof luaikinptcy and ruin, isurie by
the clamorous horde of Federal office
holders, to frighten the people and
prevent thcni from recording their
honest opinions at the polls, will prove
luise, and a lecling ul relict and security
will bring with it a flaw of pnsrpcroiiH
industry and well paid lunor and ample
employiuunt. , ; i ,o
Whether the Forly-lhird Congress
will do its duty, and take such action
as will relievo the peoplo from their I
present financial distrossoa, or a utter-
Itiko to wreak revenge iiimiii them to-
maius to be seen. They may do the
latter, for a largo number of tin, pres
ent Congress wero personally repudia
ted at the late elections. Hut wo warn
tlictn now that It will be an ujil sy
fbr them w hen they undertake to re
venge thoinsclvim upon Ike peojib for
tneir votes on nisi i uewiay.
Tho last si'ssioi) of tho" Forty-Uiiiil
Cimgruss will be more cuivfullr
watched than was the fii-st sessim,.
Hitherto, tho lieoiilti ,hav4i oulv mur
mured and spoke 111 gentle tones of ud
monition to tJio' hunt Wild comsw it
Last Tuesilav tliey spoko with the
voice of Seven-fold thunder, and if. tlie
Forty-third Congress is wine, it will
heed their words. ' If they pass un-
hectlcd, it will meet with a mightier
whirl wipd of tvrath,--iD(Ws,)(riA Pott.
