at once jcdo their former comrades. and crush this party of treachery and crime. I have noticed lately that persons from the North are buying lands in various parts of this State, with the intention of settling thereon. Let none be deceived by coming this way, for this is no place for civilized people. One acre of land in Lancaster county, in a Union and liberty loving community, is worth more than a thousand acres here with such traitors and cut-throats as neighbors. There are a number of Lancaster boys in our company, and all are getting- along well. (<u.\ , ath Abraham s `!"nips. THE Mandieder Unifm tells a good story. In the northern part of Merri mack county, a crowd of the unterritied were sitting on a piazza the other day, when an old traveler, raged, dirty, rusty, unshaved and unshorn, and evidently half-seas over, strolled up the piazza and stared vacantly at the crowd, which be gan to ply him with questions. Filially, a man said to him, - You're a Seymour man, ain't you, old fellow:" Straight ening up„the old man answered : "From my present appearance you would prob ably judge I was a Democrat, but I ain't. I learned my politics before I took to drink." This traveler was not Frank Blair. CHANZMAN Wallace, of the Democrat ic Committee, has just issued another address to the people of Pennsylvania," in which much of the old clap trap about the negro is revamped. lie endorses in glowing terms the Democratic platform, and eulogizes its candidate for the Presi dency,lioratio Seymour, but significantly omits mention of Frank P. Blair. The Blair tail to the Democratic kite is too heavy to admit of its ascension, the tas sel of the General being displeasing to the peace Democracy. Wallace does not say anything about the coffee-colored naturalization papers. Poore Mr. Blair has had a sad lesson in the danger of leaving tell-tale hotel bills behind one. The Hartford Post has ascertained that his bill at a hotel in that city during the last years' campaign was : Two days' board.... Lemons and whiskey In future we presume he will adhere to the rule usually observed by the Demo cratic politicians, and beg landlords to let him have " the demnition" total with out any terms. NINETY-NINE soldiers out of every one hundred will, in addition to their na tural repugnance to Democracy, excited by the course of that party toward them in the .‘var, feel that the abuse hurled against General Grant by Democratic presses and speakers, while pretending to a decent respect for all soldiers, is re ally a direct insult to themselves which they will resent in solid columns at the polls in November. THE New York Express says : " A party of Southern delegates to the Con vention, in company with detectives, `did' the slums of the city Monday night. They saw enough of the mysteries and miseries of tke metropolis to satisfy their curiosity, until the meeting of another convention, at least.' They saw where the Democratic majorities come from. THE Albany Journal says : " The mode of Gov. Seymour's nomination for the Presidency, after having pledged himself not to be a candidate, reminds us of the story of O'Alulligan and his wife : 'lt's a bad cowld ye have. A drap of the cray ther ud do no harrum.' Och, hone,' said Biddy, I've taken the I)lidge, but yu can mix a drink, Teddy, and force me to swally it.' MEN who owe their existence to-day, to the fact that this government has been too mild, too lenient, too concilia tory for its own 'good, and who if they would acknowledge the true sentiments of their treasonable hearts, would con fess that they deserve to die the death of traitors, are indeed fit representatives of this patent Democratic party. IN the hope of securing the votes of colored citizens, the Democrats of Wash ington County, Mississippi, nominated a negro by the name of William T. Com bash for the State Senate. He was a de serter from company " K," 23d U. S. Infantry, and therefore just mean enough to be labeled a " Copperhead Nigger." He wasn't elected, however. ONE of the highly important telegraphic items of the Associated Press news, pub lished in the city dailies the other day, was the following dated New Bedford, Mass., July 22 : " The vestry of Grace Church, in this city, have resolved to abandon the system of renting the pews, to make them virtually free, and to rely upon voluntary contributions for the sup port of the ministry." WILL not Miles O'Reily apply his val uable poetical and musical genius to set ting the war speech of the rebel Toombs, of Georgia, to music ? The first stanza might read thus : 4, Hark, from the Toombs a doleful sound, Come Rebs attend the cry, Ye Copperheads come view the ground Where you already lie." WILLIAMS, the "nigger" delegate from Tennessee to the Democratic Conven tion, indignantly denies that he slept with one of the Copperhevl delegates from Pennsylvania whilst iir New York. IF it requires a Chief Justice to re nounce all his principles to obtain half a vote in a Democratic National Conven tion, what amount of apostacy and degradation would be requisite to obtain a nomination? SAYS the Boston Tiareller: The t'o't complains of the vigorous manner in which the Republicans conduct the cam paign, and says : " The blood-hounds have been let loose." Yes. and before the campaign closes our neighbor vi 1 I see the 1 oxv Seymour lose his brush, and the woltish Blair, his ears. TILE Philadelphia Press says the Cop perheads have taken care to nominate a candidate for President who was in favor of the last rebellion krainst the Government, and a candidate for Vice President who has pledved himself in favor of the next rebellion a:vainst the Government. THE platform of the Democratic party was drawn up b 3• a platform committee, comprising, among others, the rebel !-ren era's Wade Hampton, Preston, and Barksdale, and the rebel lecislator Bab cock, and Langton, a rebel editor. These are the awn who lix the principles, of the party which asks Union soldiers for their votes. LET it be borne in mind that it was Vallandigham, the chief of the Northern secessionists, who turned the tide in the Democratic Convention for Seymour for President ; and that Wade Hampton, the most violent of South Carolina traitors, dictated the nomination of Blair for Vice President. 'A'ocal Attu's. PrumAnY ELECTION.—The following are the rules governing the Primary Elections of the Union Republican Party of Lancaster county: 1. Candidates for the various offices shall be nominated by a direct vote of the members of the Republican party.

At the nominating election in 1868, and annually thereafter, one person shall be elect ed by ballot from each district to serve on the County Committee. 10.

The Return Judges, shall have the right, and it will be their duty, to reject the returns of any district where there is evidence of fraud of any kind, to the extent of the frauds com mitted; provided. that it shall be prima facie evidence of fraud, which it will be the duty of the return judges to investigate, if more votes are cast than were cast at the last preceding October election for the Republican ticket, when a State ticket was voted for. 12.

DURING our sojourn at Harrisburg last i#inter, and on several occasions since, it has been our good 'fortune to "put-up" at the State Capital Hotel, kept by W. I. Thompson. We can truth fully recommend it as one of the best kept hotels within our knowledge, every provision being made for the comfort and convenience of its guests. In the absence of the proprietor at his Springs, near Carlisle, it is "run" by Mr. J. D. Baker, an accommodating gentleman, who, from .his long experience in the business, certainly knows how to keep a hotel. The traveling public can have their wants properly attended to by call ing on " Josh."

SINGER'S SEWING MACHINE Proved itself without a rival in the late test trial in this city with the Howe Machine. We therefore present it to the consideration of an intelligent public as INCOMPARABLY the BEST SEWING MACHINE IN THE WORLD It is light running—almost noiseless—and adapted to a wider range of work than anyvother While it is, at the same time, very simple indeed. A child can, with all ease, learn to use it in a short time. We can assure the public that they will look to their If in want of a SEWING MACHINE, TO SEE, TEST AND TRY THE SINGER, Before deciding to take it or any other Machine. Parties often come to town in search of a Machine, and then listen to the advice of interested parties, or those who have but a limited knowledge of the Machines in question. BETTER SEE THEM FOR YOURSELVES, FRIENDS, And then you will not be deceived. W. W. BEARDSLEE, Agent, No. 3 EAST ORANGE STREET, (Two Doors from North Queen,) LANCASTER, PA.
