This shows that neat ly 57.000 voters
absented themselves from the polls at
tbo recent election. Tbe Democratic
vote is short 69, 144,and the Radicals 64,
581, while the Greenback vote has gone
up from 7,294 for Cooper, to 81,75)1
for Jloson. Tbeso 57,000 absentees ol
1878 will no doubt boon band in 1880,
and will prove to be tho power behind
the throne.
Tug Rival Nsioubobs, The adjoin
ing counties of Berks and Lancaster,
buvo always been rivals in a political
and numerical sense. Tho former
county cast 21,721 votes for Governor,
and the latter 24,457. Berks always
gives a largo Democratic majority, and
Lancaster the rcverno; no difference
whether tho nnme was federal, Whig,
Know-Nothing or Radical, she would
always give a larger majority too than
Rerks, until this year; Burks gave
Dill 6 974 majority, while Lancaster
put Unyt off with 6:804. Berks lurn
ished 1,735 Grcenbat kera, and Lancas
tvronly 225. Thus showing that In
a, voting population in these twocoun
ties of over 46,000. less than 2,000
Greenbackers are bar bond.

Tho Post is an enterprising journal.
A few weeka ago it put ex Gov. Curtin
In tho field, on tho Democratic side, as
Cameron's successor. Now, it scorns,
it is determined to stuff Gov. Hart,
ranft into Senator Wallace's scat, as
far ahead aa 1881. Sucb enterprise is
certainly commendublo, and what as.
toninhea us is that not a single Barr is
suggested for eithor ploco. Probably
the family is trying to cover itself into
tbo Stoto Treasury, wbore Col. iioyos

Bribery, fraud, and general corrup
lion, produced the above result, and
we have no doubt but I hat these facts
ill be proven in open court before six
months roll around.
A Political Mission art. One
would suppose, from the reading of his
congratulatory addresses, that tho
sainted Kralier, the Greenback t buir
man, was not sold witb tho rest of the
flock to Cameron, Iloyt, Quay S Co.
lie looms to tuko a deep interest in
"follow-citirons," ''farmers," "meohun
ics," "laborers," etc. Tncse afflicted
people appear to bo tbe chief object of
his love and affection at this time. It is
remarkable that he has overlooked tbo
interests ot these classes for a period
of fifty years, and devoted all bis limo
and talents to forward bis own inter
ests. Singular, indeed I When a man
turns, reformer, he should not wait so
long, nor turn so far at once, il he do
sires those who have passed along the
highs ay ot life with him for thirty or
forty years, to believe that ho is sin

to answer the above wise conundrum
Experts can only answer sncb wise(!)
questions. Please excuse us.
RrJoiciNo, Too. We notice that tbe
London, England, Timrs goes off in
ostacies over the Radical victory in
Pennsylvania. It must be a severe
reflection to I hose Irishmen who so
actively fought against the Democra
cy to realise that their bitter loe, tbe
English, rejoice over the work of the
descendants of tyranized Ireland.

TI1K BAR IIS A XP THE DRUOO-JIACY.
Mr. James P, llnrr, in his PitUburg
Psl, which always has been n personal
organ, urn never a fuithful exponent of
Democracy, soiaos upon a paragraph
of ours to vent his venom upon Sens
tor Wallaco. Ihe IUpcui.ican is not
tho orgin of any man, and the para
graph referred to, like our other edi
torials, was our own. Wo do not need
to look fur foi tlio reusun of Hai r's at
tack on S,7.:.tor Wallace. Tbo Sena
lor was unwise enough on tho death of
Mr. lleister, in 1872, to recommend
Mr, lturr for the pluco of Member of
tlio National Committee for Pvimsyl
vunia, which pluco he held until
1870, but he wus nof fur Mr. .D.
O. (tho brother of J. P.) Burr, tut
Slulo Treasurer in 1873, nor was be
fur Mr. J. P. tor United Slates Senator
in I8i4, nor lor Mr. J. 1'. lor Governor
in 1875, nor liar Mr. J. I, for delegate
at largo to St. Louis in 1870, nor tor
Mr. D. O. for Stuto Treosuror in 1877,
nor is ho lor Mr. D. O. lorSiato Treas
urer in 187!t which iiuminalioii Mr. J
I', and Mr. D. U. and Mr. J. C. Barr
and their f riends are now actively can
vassing for by most unworthy appeals
to secturiun prejudice. In tlio light ol
these fuels it is eaey to see why the
Post turns its guns upon the Senator.
Tlio hold he has upon ihe Democrucy
must be broken or the Burrs can
not gef nominations for fat oillccs
The Tost asrerts that the defeat
of Senator Dill is chargeable to
the fact that hie nomination wus re
garded as "Wallaco set up." It might
wilh moro justice bo traced to the vi
ruluiit, false and treacherous attucks
made upon Mr. Dill before his nomina
tion, by tho Post and kindred sheets,
and to tho lying and guibled records
printed and circulated by the creatures
ol Mr. J. P, Burr prior thereto, or to
the prophetic utterances of the truvul
ing correspondent of tho Post, Mr. J.
C, in which ho foretold our defeat
wherever be went. These attacks
before the nomination, woro tho stock
in trade ol our enemy alter it wus
mudo, and did more to defeat Mr. Dill
than ull else, except the money of Cum
eron, which was used with such fulal
effect to buy up and voio against us
tho very men whom tho Barrs aro now
trying to send to tho Stute Convention
to nominnto Mr. D. O. Barr for State
Treasurer.
1 1 is a part of our polilicul history
that whenever a (nndiditto for Stole
i. Olce is mimed, who is a friend of Sen
utor Wallace, that ho is at once at
tacked by tlio Post and two or three
other newspapers within theStule, and
by the New York San, and vilification
und Blunder uro heaped upon him in
order to defeat his nomination. Sena
tor Dill was abused und vilified by
these people without stint. For months
prior to, und at tlio Convention, they
were shameless in their blutant tulc-
hoods. Whilst the Convention was in
progress, the columns of their papers,
and the streets wero alike tilled witb
them. Publio speeches were made,
and every effort used to influence the
Convention to listen to their slanders.
On tho other band Senator Dill and
bia friends attacked no candidule,
wrote no abusive articles, distributed
no garbled records and made no pub
lic speeches to distract his party. Such
has always been the policy of Senator
Wallaco and those with whom he has
acted since bo has come into public life,
lie und bis friends abuse no candidate
before nomination and they always give
a cordial support to the nominees. Tbe
Post and its Iriends coin falsehoods in
advance, and stub the nominees in the
durk after thoy are before tbo people,
if those, nominees are not their special
favorites.
Il is an offence in the eyes of the
Burrs that Senutor Wallace was tent
to tho Statu Convention and used b
influence to nominate candidates and
cnuncinlo principles. Aro our public
men to be retired from active partici
pution in settling tbo very principles
upon which they aro called upon to
vote 7 Is II truo that because a man
has tho evidence of his party's trust it
is to ignore his counsel and he is to
turn bis buck upon its council fires?
Just because bis place gives him en
larged opportunities and wider sphere
of action, tho necessity conies for bis
counsel and earnest aid in the council
chamber of the patty. If power and
patronage conferred by party place
wtro used to influence nominations,
there might be cause for criticism,
but the parullej between Cameron and
Wallace, that the Post seeks to draw
cannov oe sustaineti. uameron lias
power and patronage, lie gives ofli
ces and fat places. Ho uses with un
scrupulous hands all ol tho perquisite-
ol his place to pack conventions and
dictutu nominations. Wallace, on the
contrary, has neither places nor pa
nonage nor perquisites, lie can give
no ofliccs to Democrats nor reward deli-gules
with postofllces, collector-ships
or rich pickings Irom fat government
contracts. Cun tho Post point to a
single delegate who voted for Mr. Dill
who w as influenced by Kedurul patron
age? If il cannot, then its complaint
of 'a Wallace set up" is tbe sheerest
bosh. It is moro: it is an effort to es
tublisha precedent in tho counsel
of tho Democracy that shall result in
ignoring the advice of men trusted and
in high pluco, simply because they aro
so trusted. Tbe animus ot tbe Post is
transparent. Its attacks are the re
suit of a personal grievance against
Senator Wallace. As to the deluat of
Govei nor Curtin. it Is not necessary
for thoso who know Senator Wallace
and his broad views of tho policy of
bis party and bis devotion to iia best
interests, both In this district and in
the State, in the canvass just closed, to
say anything in bis defence. Tbo com
bined voteol the Republicans and Na
tionals, the unscrupulous usoot money
within the district by the Cameron-
Quay-Mackey power, and the treach
ery ol Democrats outside of Clearfield
county, who acted with tbe Post and
ta party at tbe Pittsburg Convention,
were the causes of tho victory of Yo-
cum over Curtin.
Upon this subject tbo en J is not yet.
Let the Post possess its soul in pa
tience.

what or 1880?
Tho one fuel estubliahed beyond all
possibility of doubt by the luto elec
tions, Is this lhat in a sufficient nuin
her of tho States to control the Presi
dency in 1880, the opponents of tho
iNationul Bunk policy aro immensely
in the iiiujority. Ohio, Pennsylvania,
Illinois, Michigan, Connecticut and
New Hampshire woro carried by the
Republicans by pluralities, but in them
all, at,d in others, the majority of tbe
votes cast were cust against tbo moll
ey policy of that party the policy of
funding or otherwise retiring that por
lion of the notional dubt which the
people aro anxious to continue the use
of as currency, in order to widen tbe
market for tbo costly National Bank
currency, and to-cxlend the molded
and political influence of the banking
oligarchy.

There is nothing communistic, agrari

trine we would havo the party a unit

Gold and ailver are tbe constitu

do not exist in sufficient quantities to
supply us wilh an adequate circulat
ing medium ; and if tboy did, there are
certain forms of exchanges wbieb
could not conveniently be effected
without the aid of papor currency.
Paper currency we always havo bad,
and always must have. Now then,
what kind of paper shall it be? Shall
it bo National Bank paper, upon which
wo must pay doublo interest, or gov
ernment paper, which frees us ol the
interest on so much ol llio debt as will
circulate in that form ? Tho National
Bunking system constitutes a p"lilical
oligarchy, more powerful than the old
bank oligarchy of lt36 almost as
powerful, and in tune likely to become
more so, than was tho slave oligarchy
Government money obviates this dan
ger.
As to our debt it is of two kinds
that which bears interest and thai
which does not. The former the peo
ple are anxious to huve liquidated in
exact accordance witb tho terms of the

only no hardship to them to carry it,
but oven John Sherman has acknowl
edged thut it is the best currency tbe
country bus ever had that, as against
National Bank currency, it is infinite
ly the preferable. And we say that
so much of thu bulunco that ia so
much of the inturest-bearing debt

the Senator never 'dreamed that Hast

Such is the caption we find in every

those same things, and they will reap

that the vole cost for Iloyt in this
county, is three leu than Senator Dill's
majority, via: Tho vote for tbe former
was 1.602, and tho mujority lor the

that a Ck-ai field Radical could not
crow very well over Iloyl's discount,

actly with the requirements of the

plastering two dwelling bouses ad per

forth the kind and amount ol material

terials were furnished and tho work

forth lhat tho materials wero furnish

showed that tbey were lor repair ol
the building, and it waa therefore die
allowed. This is getting the law
down to very fine points, but mechan
