"The Confederate Presidential tick

much. Fornoy knows that after Til

from tho St. Lawrence to tho Kio

ratify tho work so nobly begun at St.
jonis, in November.
Tho Democrats at St. Louis abandon
ed tho miserable habit adopted filtoon
years ago and carried out at Cincin

Kocond handed, or third rate statesman
for Vice .President. Mr. Hondrieks

Jlovr Natural ! SI osby, tho guerrilla
chief, has declared lor lliiyes. That's
right. Ho was always on that side.
Ho is u disunionist at heart, and he
always associates with thoso in sym
pathy with his own views. During
tho rebellion ho assisted Jeff Davis,
' hoping to accomplish his end, failing
iu that ho has tied himself to Grant,
Cameron, and Hayes.
Ill's Gone. General Santa Anna,
of Uoxican famo, died on tho 20th of
Juno, aged 84 years. As an historical
. character, ho has figured conspicuous

Ho lost a leg in 1835, in tho war be
tween Texas and Moxico, and made
sovcral mulo oscapos in .1840 and 1849,
during tho war with tho Vnitcd States.
Ho was & cunning rostloss Bpirit.

tho I'hilipsburg .Journal, by tho aid ol
Mr. Chauncy lilack, who is constantly
1 throwing mud at Senator Wallace,
through the columns of tho Sun, has
succeeded in making "a hit at AVal

the editor in question proposes to fob

Those votem whoknow whalGrunt-
Ihhi ineuus, should understand that the
Itadical nominee for 1'iesideiit, Goueral
Hayes, has pledged himself to continue
Grant's policy, uiid that if elected, all
tho Treasury robbers nnd "crooked
whisky" dealorsmiss tho Penitentiary.
Tho policy introduaed by Itrlstow, of
sending rogues (o the Penitentiary, is
dunoiiiicedliy ( rant uud Hayes' friends,

Ifaucd with him to muku the scoun

havo been removod from office and
their places filled by Treasury robbora
and "crookod whisky", dealers.
The editor of tho New York Su,
who knows Hayes "like a book," in al
luding to him says: "All thu develop
ments since tho Cincinnati Convention
make it plain that the combination of
influences through which Gov. Huycs
was nominated was simply seeking to
prolong tho corrupt and demoralizing
system, now known as (j rant ism. Gov.
Hayes was adopted because of his pli
able and plastic nature, his mediocrity,
and his dependenco on superior minds
to guide him in public affuirs.
Grant naturally socks to perpotuato
his power through a woak succossor.
Theroforo he not only promises all tho
aid his Administration can give, but
prescnU himself at a r.;V!6cation moot
ing with llrothor Nowraan, his con
science keeper, as If to servo notieo on
tho army of offleo-holdors that ovory
ono of them is expected to bo active,
and to imitate the President's example.
Mr. Conkling applauds tho nomina
tion as good, and claims for Now York
the credit of making it. Mr. Morton
declares tho ticket unexceptionable,
and says ho will work with coal, as
his friends did at Cincinnati whon thoy
dropped his nnmo and wont over in a
body to Hayes. Blaino of course is
quito satisfied, for has he not so writ
ten, and promised a transfer ot thoso
Kailroud Kings which so eagerly boro
bis banner into the front of tho fight?
Simon Cameron openly asserts that
Don did it by thu sacrifice of llartranft.
Zach Chandler is in ruptures with tho
ticket, and calls it inspired. lien lint -lor
was ono ot the foremost rntlfiers at
Washington. William D. Kellcy re
joices nt tho financial plunk of tho plat
form as sound and an end of resump
tion. Doss Shepherd is stirred with
now nctivity for tho causo, nnd wel
comes Hayes as worthy to step into
Grant's shoes. Mcf)ald, Meliee,
Joyce, and others who are on tho re
tired list of licpublicnn leaders have
not yet spoken out, but they arc known
to approve tho nominations.
All tho Rings that havo dominated
tho cAuncils and shaped tho legislation
of tho party for tho last twelve years
aro onlistod for Hayes with ivi cordial
real as they would havo exhibited for
Grant ur lilaine under changed circum
stance", llio whole party machinery
is to bo driven at doublo spocd under
the guidunco of Zach Chuddler and his
man Kdmunds, Hie. Postmaster at
Washington.
Gov. Hayes has nolhmg in his char
acter or his carcor which separates
him from tho crowd of Republican pol
iticians. His record in Congress would
bo a blank, except that he pocketed
tho buck pay in lSliC. He novor rais
od a fingor or lifted his voico for any
real reform, and during tho controver
sies of theso recent years ho has boon
dumb, while to tho extent of his influ
ence he has exerted himself as a cham
pion of tho Administration. Rnthor-
ford B. Hayes is little else than a mere
figure-head for Granlism. As Prcsi.
dent, ha would bo an instrument to
prolong misrulo and corruption. ' ''
The Dmft or mt Political Tide.
Tho first National Convention that
cvor convoncd West of tho great Mis
sissippi river, was tho Democratic body,
on the 27th of Juno. ThiB point con
clusivoly that "tho star of Kmpiro" is
making its way westward. Moro:
Both tho Chairman nnd the Vice Pres
ident woro takon from tho South and
West, and the President was only con
ceded to the Middlo and Ecstcrn por
tion of tho Union. Tho Convention
had really tho powor to take all;
but the members woro magnanimous
onough to yield a portion of the honors
to our section. St. Louis is the geo
graphical contre of tho Union, and we
predict that from this timo forward
but few National Conventions will be
held cast of Louisville and Cincini ali,
hceauso tho South and West will ccm
bino against the Kast if necessary to
carry their point, from tho fact that
tho Interests of thoso two sections are,
in effect, the same, and possessing the
members to control public affairs, it
Will bo very strange if they do not
carry their points. 'Tis well that our
parly friends havo acted ipon this
viow, because it has added moro votes
to onr ticket than any other stroko of
policy that could havo been adopted,

the stupes and ridges and in tho ra

positions bad been successively takon
up and held till nouo wore loll to fight.
Then huddled in a narrow compass,
horses and men woro pilod promiscu
ously. At tho highest point of tho
ridgo lay Custer, surroundod by a
chosen band. Hero wore his two
brothers and his nephew, Mr. Reed,
Cols. Yates and Cooko, and Captain
Smith, all lying in a circle of a few
yards, their horses besido them. Here

themselves across the path of the ad

Katiikr TuiN The excuse for tho
uhsonce ot "tho Government" at tbo
Centennial on the 4th, by the friends
of tho President, is vory thin. When
telegraphed for by his bultios In Phil
adelphia lo come to tho celebration,
"the Government" answered, "It's too
hot." Woll, George W. Childs, A.J.
Droxel, llishop Simpson and llorio,
should hVo hastened to Washington
and helped, to "cool off" their mutual
friend, for fear hj will be nnablo lo
make Long Hrnnoh after Congress ad
journs.
Unnorsl Custar, although tuhptenacd
as an important witness in the Bel
knap impeachment case, will hot an
swer whon called as a witness. Like
Uriah of old, he was placed in tho
front or the battjo. Tbo result is the
tamw, David and Grant are the vic
tors, and to then belong the spoils.
Had CtTstar not testlfiod in the Bolknap
case, be would have been alive to-day.
But having exposed tho Post-trador-thip
baaineea under Grant and bit
brother, he waa made the victim ot
Sitting Bull, Grant 4 Co.' 1
OIIEAT EVENTS.
Wonderful things havo ocnurrod on
this Continent since our lust issue, two
weeks ago. Locally, thu Centennial
I ill was tho grandest display ever Wil
li ossod In our country. Our Philips
burg neighbors wero visited by the
fire fiend again, a huge amount of
properly wus destroyed in the busi
ness portion ol the borough. Ilello
fonto wus overwhelmed wilh a storm
id wind, thunder, lightning und ruin,
buildings destroyed, streets flooded,
pavements washed away, und railroads,
iron-works, and farms along Spring
Creek, and tho Dalit Kaglu greatly
damaged. Nationally tho massacre
of tho bravo (ion. Cuslar and his noble
band, In the Black Hills country, is a
calumiiy for which there can lie no
compensation. The Contciiiiiul, or
the World's Celebration, which cumo
off in Philadelphia on tho till inst.,
has no parallel in history, and will bo
so recorded. The absence ol tho Pres
ident of the United States wus tho only
humiliating fouturo ubout it. Not less
than 73,000 porsons wero present from
all suctions of tho Globo to sco a live
President, but no such olllciul put in
an appearance. It was "too hut I"
ATckkiiili Htorii. A fearful r form
swept over Dubuque, Iowa, on the
4lh inst., carrying death and distriic
tion in its path. The village of liock
dalo, twenty -sttvun mitos from Duhiiquo,
buill in a ravine on a itrouin, was in
undated at the dead hour of night,
while the storm wus raging and light
ning flashing, by tho breaking away
of a mill dam some disttr.ee up the
stream. Kvury building in tho pluee
save tho mill wus carried down the
stream or moved irom its foundation.
After the storm had abated search was
mado and forty-two persons wore lound
