DEMOCRATIU HTATE COMM I PTEE BOOMS, I MI ARCH PHILADELPHIA. I To the Democracy of Penn.vylrania • The sturdy Democracy of Maine have covered themselves with glory. In the very citadel of Radicalism whey have demonstrated that you are upon the eve of a magnificent victory. The two parties were last arrayed at the polls upon national Issues in 1860. Maine then polled a vote nearly equal to her-vote of 1801, whilst Pennsylvania polled her largest vote. In 1866 Radicalism received In Maine 69,- 637 votes. In ISIS it receives, as they them selves estimate, 75,002 Voles. This is an Increase of S par cent, upon the vote of 1866. In 1866 Democracy there received -11,917 votes, and in 1868 it receives 55,725, This is an increase of 30 per cent. upon the vote of 1866. In 18G6 Radicalism received in Pennsyl vania 307,274 totes, and Democracy received 290,096 votes. Apply the test of Maine to thls vote, and Radicalism will receive in Pennsylvania an increase of 8 per cent., or 21,381 votes, making a total of 3:11,855 votes, and Democ racy will receive aninerease of :le per rent., or 87,028 votes, making a total of 377,12.1 Detuocratic votes, showing that we will have a clear Democratic majority of 45,20 e votes. Whilst the totals shown by this estimate are too large for the vote that we will cast in October, no num who knows the condi tion of public sentiment in Pennsylvania will assert that the relative proportion will be lessened. Maine voted for John C. Fremont, yet James Buchanan was elected President, and P,nnsylvauia led the column of States that made him the Chief Executive of the nation. The hope 'of the Republic is in the De mocracy of the Keystone. As in 1856, the responsibility of deter mining the contest now rests with you. Maine has proven that you can again bring triumph to the principles you love. Let us arouse to renewed energy and more determined effort. By order of the Democratic State Com mittee. WILLIAM A. WALLACE. Chairman. Be Assessed Let it he distinctly remembered that Friday, October 2d, is positively the last day on which assessments can be made. Radical assessors will,in many instances do all they can to embnrass Democratic voters. The party is desperate and its members will resort to every possible means to prevent a Democratic triumph in October. Let it be seen to that every Democrat is duly assessed al once. Letgaellmim see to himself anithiet; neighbors at the san.)etkyt. District Mass Meetings We hope the readers of the INTELLI! uENCER will remember the District Mass Meetings, which have been ap pointed for liliuNwoon on Tue Way the 29th, JOHN M. SKILLS' near Cam bridge on Wednesday the 30th, uud EPIIItATA Ola Saturday October 3d. These meetings should be made worthy of the times. Let there be a grand rally to each of them. Without a Quorum There was only a pretended meeting of Congress at the extra session. No quorum was present In the House, and all that was done was entirely illegal. But what do the Jacobins care? They regard themselves as supreme rulers of the country, and they will meet on the 18th day of October to adoptsuch meas ures as they may deem necessary to Con tinue the supreme rule of the many headed tyrant wh ch has so oppressed the people for yea s past. To continue the despotic reign of a Radical Rump Congress, which openly admits that it Is acting entirely outside of the consti tution, is what the Radicals hope to ef fect by the election of Grant. A.major ity of the people of Pennsylvania nave determined that there shall be an end of that, and on the second Tuesday of Oc tober they will vote for a change. SECRETARY STANTON 18 advertised to speak in Pittsburg shortly. We hope Some one will demand an explanation as to the vast difference between hie estimates and the actual cost of the War Department. Let him explain whore the $612,000,000 went which the army has cost in three years of profound peace. NEHEMIAH G.

The obstacles- era not so great that effort will not overcome them. In 1 the September L'ieetions,whenwe Corn pare federal elections with federal elec tions, as 180. l and 1886 'with 1808, which is perfectly just, the,Democrats are the gainers. . Similar gains in Pennsylvania will enable us to carry the State by a mag nificent majority at the coming October elections. There can be no doubt about that. The figures prove it most con clusively. Everywhere there are defec tions in the radical ranks. Nowhere are there any In ours. All the gain will be with us, and It will amount to a per centage, not seemingly very large in any district, but large enough In the ag gregate to effect the desired:result. Our opponents admit that Pennsyl vania is the great liattle ground, and that their defeat here In October will settle the Presidential contest In favor of Seymour and Blair. That we will carry the State then we have no doubt. Nothing can preventour success but the most inexcusable negligence of the nec essary means of obtal Mug success on ou'r part. With a full poll of the entire Dem ovratie vote we can not be beaten. Let every Democrat remember that, and from this hour until the polls close on the 13th day of October, letevery one work with all his energies. Individual Effort We feel that we cannot impress too strongly upon the mind of every Demo crat the importance of individual effort. In such a campaign as the present no man should wait to have work assigned to him. Still less should ,any one re— gard the conduct of the contest as the peculiar business of committees or or ganized clubs. Such institutions are well enough in their place, and they servo to combine the energies of the party. But, before and above all other means for sectiriLg success, le to be ranked the active and zealous efforts of individual Democrats, If every Demo• crat who reads this article should vote all the time ho can spare to the canvass from now until the October election, the result would be plainly apparent when the vote was an nounced. There is work for every man to do, and no one Is so unimportant as ; not to be needed. Every man has his influence, and diligent, well directed effort will be certain to produce good results. Each man has a direct personal and pecuniary Interest in the result of this election. The success of the Democratic party will surely do away with the ex travagance, the fraud and Woo:irruption, which has spread like a blighting mil dew over the State and Nation slime the Radicals have had control. Taxes will be equalized and lessened, The burthens upon labor will be lightened. Economy and reform will be the order of the day, The Union will be speedily and com pletely restored. Peace and good feel ing will take the place of agitation and distrust In the South. The industry of that rich section will find full employ ment. The greatest and best market we ever had for our Northern pro ducts will be re-opened. Trade of all kinds will flourish. Wages will be higher. Prices of all that the working man consumes will be lower. The negroes of the South will raise sugar, rice and cotton, instead of parading at political meetings with 1 arms in their hands. The army which is employed at a cost of $150,000,000 a year to prop up negro governments vilill be disbanded, or sent to the frontier to light the Indians. The Freedmen's Bureau will be abolished. The navy will he reduced at once to a peace stand• ard. The money the Radicals are ex i /lending so lavishly, to keep the men of our own race in subjection to the bar barian black, will all be devoted to the payment of the national debt, and that weighty incubus will be lifted from the shoulders of the toiling masses. Here, surely, are incentives which ought to induce every man to work with au energy and a zeal such as he never felt before. Go to work, then, Fellow Democrats Remember that each man must do his work in this campaign a. 9 an efficient and active volunteer soldier. Fight on your own hook, when you are not fighting iu line. See to your neigh bors. Bring every effort to bear which can influence a single vote. Work dili gently and earnestly to influence votes until the morning of the 13th day of October. Then give one whole day to your country, and see that every vote is polled. If the Democracy but do their whole duty, we shell carry Pennsylvania in October by such a majority as will bury the corrupt and rotten carcass of Radi calism so deep that it will never know apolitical resurtc The Prospect In Pennsylvania From all parts of Pennsylvania we have the most cheering Intelligence.— Everywhere Democratic meetings are more largely attended than they have been for years, many who have formerly acted with the Republican party coming out to listen to Democratic speeches. All the changes seem to be In our favor, and they are universal and numerous. That the October election will result in a gloriotis Democratic victory there can be no doubt, if we work as we should do. With complete organization, and a full poll of our vote, success Is abso lutely certain. Frightful Expenditures! The expenditures of the Government during the month of July were $113,519,000, and the total expenditure for the mouth of August, as Just reported by the Sec- retary of the Treasury, was $37,730,0001 This iudicates an average expenditure per month of $42,139,500, or $505,701,000 per yeUr !

RadiCal majority wan increased 21,984„ and yet the Democrats carried NOD Jersey , Pemzsylcania, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri, States which are the battle ground to-day. In 1802, the, vote was as follows: Radical 45,534. Democrat:lo 32,331, Radical majority The total vote was 77,865. The vote in 1868 is at least 132,630, or 55,000 more. 55,000 is 5-7 of 77,000. Now if the Rad icals are relatively as strong in 1868 as they were in 1862, their majority ehould have increased with the vote, and should be 5.7 greater than It was in 1862. They should have 22,633 majority, whereas they probably have not more than 18,000 and certainly have not 20,000. Yet in 1862, the Democracy carried New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indi ana, Illinois and Missouri, States which, as we said before, are the battle grounds to-day. To come down still later. The elec tion of 1867 was not fought entirely on National Issues, and a small vote was polled. The election of 1866 was fought how ever, on National issues, and a full vote was polled. The vote was Radical,.... Democratic Radical majority The whole vote was 111,878. The vote this year la 20,766 greater, and the Radical majority at least 8,000 less. In 1866, in Pennsylvania, the total vote was 507,370, the Radical majority 17,178. Now, as Pennsylvania polls more than five times as many votes as Maine, a gain similar to that made on Monday would bo 40,000, wiping out Gcarll'H majority of 17,178, and estab lishing a Democratic majority of 23,000. Or to put It In another light 1860—Democratic voto in Maine.. 41,530 18US— " " 50,403 The Democratic vote has Increased 14,404, or 343 per cent. 1806—Radical vote In Maine 69,026 .1.8(18 7(1,236 The Radical vote has increased 0,010-,:. or not quite lq per cent. • A similar increase In Pennalvania on the vote of ISM; would be Clymer's vote Ai 311 per runt (7e try's vote Add per cent Democratic majority Of course, we cannot expect such a gain, but if we do but half as well as our friends in Maine, Pennsylvania Is sure by at least 23,000 majority. If there be any consolation In these figures for Radicals, we cannot see it. Ono Tyrant Preferable to Many. The Richmond Whig, one of the ablest and most moderate papers pub lished In the South says: 'Fhn only three States In the South in which there Is any sort of repose are Vir ginia, Mississippi and Texas, and that Is due to the fact or their being nuretum strutted. That is unquestionably true. In every State where the Radical system of ro• construction has been tried it has been shown to be productive of evil, and evil only. In Tennessee, where It has been longest in operation and most ful. ly carried out, all accounts agree iu de claring that civil war, a war of races, is imminent. Brownlow is engaged in arming the negroes and drilling them into armies to be employed in shooting down every white man who may not yield with unquestioning servility to the galling despotism which has been established. United States troops in large numbers are being sent there to preserve the peace. In the State which was the home and is the burial place of the patriotic Jackson a horde of bar. barian negroes, led by the brutal dema gogue Brownlow, have put the white men under foot by the power of the bayonet, and the Republican party pledges itself to continue such rule. If Grant is elected, he promises to have no policy of his own ; pledges himself to be the mere tool of the worst Radicals, and to uphold this unconstitutional, rev olutionary and tyrannical system. Better, far better would it be for the country, and especially for the South, if General Grant should at once declare himself dictator, and rule both the North and the South by military force. Then we should have the quietof a des potism, and would be spared the humil. iating spectacle of seeing all the powers of the government employed in prop ping up negro rule in one half of the Union, at an expense of hundreds of millions of money wrung from the sweat and toil of the people of the other half by the most oppressive system of taxation ever devised. Better, far better, better for the South, and better for the North, that we should have the quiet of a military despotism than such a mere mockery of a republic a 9 the Radicals offer us. One tyrant would be infinitely preferable to many. Grant as a despot would In all probabil ity be more humane, more just and more generous than a despotism com posed of the fanatics, bigots and thieves who make up the Radical majority in Congress. If the people should be such fools as to elect Grant we hope he will have a policy of his owu, and a very de cided one at that. He could save the people millions of money by dispersing the Radical Congress, and, however bad his rule might be, it could scarcely be worse than that to which the country will be subjected by Congress. Again Again we say, one tyrant would be preferable to many. The Weekly Express, Published at Wash ington City, D. O. This is a valuable Democratic journal, and we commend it to those who wish to subscribe to a paper published at the capitol of the nation. • Mr. Jonah D. Hoover, the editor, is well known throughout the country by his connec tion with the Central Democratic Com mittees for many years, and as the Uni ted States Marshal for the District of Columbia under the administrations of Presidents Pierce. and Buchanan.

What should be as clear as an'array of figures can make It Is purposely involved in impenetrable obscurity. No one can tell what becomes of the five hundred million dollars a year which are annu ally wrung from the sweat and toll of the tax ridden masses of the people. Does not this stogie fact furnish mill dent reason for a change? Let the peo ple turn the Radicals out, and we prom ise them such an exhibit of official cor ruptlonand wholesale stealing as they do not even dream of. The only way to reach so desirable a result is to give the power into the hands of the De mocracy. That will Insure it. Nothing else will. Should Grant be elected everything will continue as at present, or grow still worse. There is good reason to expect that hie administration would be more corrupt and profligate than any which has preceded it. The people are not prepared to encounter such a ca lamity. They have resolved to effect a change, and will assuredly do so. 67,170 . 39,080 Expenses of the Army and Navy The following tables, taken from ofd• clal sources at Washington, show what we are paying to keep up an enormous standing army and a gigantic and use less navy in times of profound peabe: Payments at treasury on account of the service of the War Department from Janu ary 1, 1867, to March 31, 1868: January $7,897,000 July $7,822,000 February —12,178,000 August 13,174,000 March. ...... _10,577,000 September _10,448,000 April 12,153,000 Oct. to 291h..13,821,000 May 4,915,000 June 16,812,0001 Total, 9 months ant As per statement it Johnson: Oct. 29th to _ 31st $3,345,000 November .. 7,055,000 18t January $5,307,0001 February ... 0,361,0001 Total 15 m0nt194..

During the month of August, which has just closed, the expenses of the army were $11,896,017. For the last twenty months they were for the army, $214,- 2.3,031; for the navy, $45,995,971; in terior, c,54,4,042,924 ; in all about $304,- 690,926. That is at the rate of 151 mil lions a mouth, or more than half a million per day. Three-fourths of that vast sum, or more, ought to be saved , and the people relieved of taxation to that extent. Other enormous expendi tures would be at once cut down under a Democratic administration. The people know that, and in the great Middle and 'Western States they are only waiting the opportunity to con demn the corruption, and extravagance of the party in power. Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana will speak in thunder tones in October, for a change. Look at the Democratic Gains. We present the following table of Democratic gains for thebenefit of those Radicals who are throw-ing up their hats on Vermont and . Maine.

THE public debt increased OVER TWELVE MILLION DOLLARS IN Au- GUST. It also increased largely In June and July. How long will It take to reduce the nation to complete bankruptcy at that rate? That !sa question which bondholders would du well to consider. If we have four years more of such rule, repudiation will be the Inevitable result. The lies which Radical newspapers have been retailing in regard to rebel atrocities in the South are being com pletely exploded. A telegram to the Associate press says: • NASHVILLE, Sept. 17.—A correspondent of a New York ;Japer, who was sent to Bowling .

False Statements In Regard tolthe Pub Ile Debt. Keep it before the people, that the Repub• licaEis have already reduced the, debt more than $500,000,000; have lessened taxation more than $200,000000 since the war; have reduced the rate of taxation one•half ; have saved the country from copperhead treason and rebellion, and are now pledged to and working for the good of the State, and the greatest good of the greatest number in it.— Express. In order that It may be seen how much truth there Is In the above, It is only necessary to read the following figures, taken from the monthly reports of the Secretary of the Treasury: Public Debt, August 31, 1ett5........82,535,011,8 1 8,03 Public Debt, Marsh al, 1863 $2*8035,077,84. Inct ease of Debt. The war ended by the surrender of Lee to Grant on the oth of April, 1800, less than ten days after the Secretary of the Treasury had published his state ment of the amount of the public debt, at that time, as we have given it above. The figures show an actual increase from April 1,1885 to September 1, 1808 of $108,059,233,00. What credit can we give to any news paper which will falsify,with such plain figures against it? Yet, that is only of a piece with the whole Radical plan of conducting the present campaign. The Express did not dare to publish the last monthly re- I port of the Secretary of the Treasury. It purposely excluded it from its columns, so that the people who read no other paper might not be able to de tect the falsity of such statements as the one we have quoted. No Republican newspaper in this county published the late monthly statements of the Secre tary of the Treasury. They have all purppsely excluded them. How can the 'people trust a qmirty which thus covers up the truth' We I charge that the Radical leaders are en deavoring, by all the means in their power, to deceive the people in regard to their extravagance and corruption. And we prove it by figures which can not lie, and facts not to be wiped out. tirowth of the Public Debt in the Last Year. The following are the exact figures of each public debt statement for the past year: September 1, 1867 October 1,11887.... November 1, Mr December 1, 1807. January 1, 1808.... February 1 IS6B. March 1, - 18CS April 1, 1808 May 1, 1808 June 1, 1808 August 1, 1868 September 1, 1808 The total increase from Sept. 1, 1867, to Sept. 1,186 S, is $42,830,038! An in crease of almost forty-three million dol lars a year ! That is the way the Radi cals manage our debt and taxes. What the Republican Party in the South is Composed of. . The negroes who were expelled from the Georgia Legislature have issued a call fora State Convention of their own race. In their circular we find the fol lowing paragraph: In several counties not a white Republi• can could be found, or any white man who would accept the colored nomination ; yet we are now censured and expelled for do ing the best we could, and what is more as tonishing, a number of white representa tives who were professed Republicans at home, since their arrival here have become decided Democrats. A nice party the Radicals must have in the South, when the negroes openly declare that in several counties not a white Rei üblican could be found, not even a carpet-bagger to accept a nom ination for the Legislatute. Comment would be superfluous. Some time ago, the Secretary of War asked the Attorney General for an opinion on the question, whether officers, in the ser vico of the Freedmen's Bureau, who had been mustered out of the military service, are entitled to the pay and allowance of their several grades in the army? Acting Attorney General Ashton has just sent to the Secretary an Opinion that they are en titled to the same Vey and allowance.—N. Y. Tribune. So we go. Thousands of Radicals still drawing full pay of army officers, for " bumming round" as employees of the Freedmen's Bureau. How much longer do the people intend to sustain such profligate corruption ?. Is it not high time there was a-,iiiiange? A High Prlced:Patriot Joe Brown, of Georgia, the landlord of Andersonville prison, and one of the rebels who helped to nominate Grant, expects,to make a good thing oat of his new•iledged loyalty. , 4e is a high priced Patriot, and detnands live thou sand dollars to act as , counsel for the Government in the prO,seeution of the alleged Ashburn murderers.

Mr. Bradley, , (oolored) then came forward and at once beset:not/Le principal object of ovation. The. whale, assemblage cheered with the greatest enthusiasm, the band play ing, but the music was drowned In the vol ume of sound that came from the cheering throats. of.: the vest assemblage. After silence was restored Mr. Bradleyproceeded with bis address, dwelling chiefly- upon the aotionot the georgia Legislature in expPlUng kijmeelf and his colored colleagues from the uogildatereof that State. He e/aimedthat under thefourteenth article of amendment to the • constitution the negroea of the State of New,,York as nett As those of Georgia, were mai/fed:to.att,the,rtghts of citizenship, and that the State las oof -Nene York requiring a negro pipperty qualification was abolished by the passage of the article of amendment to the constitution. And the crowd yelled and cheered after which some one called for the singing Q f Old Hundred," and the doxology was sung. Whg do the people of Pennsylvania think of the manner In which the New York Radicals celebrated the victory in Maine? They were right in introdu cing the negro Bradley. True it is that he had served a term as a convicted thief In the New York penitentiary ; but , he was perfectly in place in a meet ing which represented the party which is plundering the public treasury of hundreds of millions of dollars a year. His assertion that under the 14th amend ment to the Constitution negroes had a right to vote and hold office in every State in the Union was not a forced in terpretation. The New York Times and other Radical papers have taken the same view of It. That will be the in terpretation given to it, if Grant is elect ed, and Congress will endorse it. The negro thief Bradley was the proper person to make the chief speech at a Radical Jubilee over the result in Maine. " Let us have peace." .$169,039,235,09 EXTRAVAGANCE and pillage marks the sway of the Radicals In the State and National Legislatures. Tin swarms of new employees atHarrisburg, the in crease of the pay of the members and the rapid rise in the aggregate legislative expenses, have been subjects of common remark. At Washington it Is the same. Congressional wastefulness run to an excess scarcely credible. It costs forty five dollars, a head to keep fifty-two members of the Senate supplied with penknives. Thirty-seven pairs of scissors and shears are furnished each Senator per annum. Fifty-six reams of paper, and thirty-six thousand envel opes are also annually consumed by each Senator. Kid gloves, lemons, pomade, cork screws, toilet cases, cologne, &c., are also supplied In quan tities to suit under the comprehensive head of stathbnary. Petty thieving,and larceny are the right names to apply to such appropriations. The K. K. K. Stories Spoiled. The Philadelphia Ledger publishes the following special telegram from Washington : WASITINGTON, sop, 14. A gentleman, well'apd favorably known to 'the public, and a Republican in politics, has just arrived here, having concluded a tour through the Southern States. He repre sents that the tone and feeling of the citizens of those States are greatly exaggerated, and especially is this so as to the sentiment in Tennessee. In the latter State he says the ex-rebels are submissive and disposed to abide by the laws of the State. The K. IC. R. he says is generally composed of bad charac ters, mostly lawless men, who were as trou blesome to the rebels in the days of the Southern Confederacy as they are now to the law-abiding people of Tennessee. The Radical press persists In publish ing the most exagerated lies in reference to the condition of the South. They represent that section as being In a state of revolt, and constantly aver that no man's life is safe unless he Is a rebel in sentiment. And there are fools who credit such stuff.' 82,492,783,365 2,495,277,446 2,491,504,450 2,501,205,751 2,508,125,650 2,527,315,373 2,319,829,622 2,519,209,687 . 2,500,528,827 . 2,510,245,886 . 2,523,534,480 . 2,535,014,313 Grant's Opinions. General Grant, in his report to the 'President, December 18th, 186.3, said : " I am satisfied that the mass of thinking men of the Soutti accept the present situa tion of affairs in good faith. The questions which have heretofore divided the senti ments of the people of the two sections— slavery and State rights or the right of a State to secede from the Union—they regard as having been settled forever by the high est tribunal that men can resort to." No honest man doubts that Grant told the plain unvarnished truth when he gave utterance to the above words; and the conduct of the people of the South from that day to this has proved it. At the same Lime he spoke in decided condemnation of the Freedmen's Bu reau. If he were as honest now as he was then he would hold the same opinions and would speak out like a man. But since Washburn, Forney and Wade put a padlock on his mouth he is dumb. He declares he will have no policy of his own, If elected, and admits that he will be only a mere tool in the hands of the worst men in the Radical party. The people would be fools to elect Buell a candidate.

In demanding these measures , atid- re forms we arraign the Radical party.forcita disregard of right and the unparalieladep- preesten and tyranny which have marked its career. After the most solemn and unanimous pledge of both Houses c,f, Congress to prose cute the war 'exclusively, for the mainten ance of the Government and the preserva tion of the Union under the Coffstffntion, it has repeatedly violated tistit Motif sifted pledge under which alone Wt' rallied 'that noble volunteer array which carried' our flag to victory. Instead of restoring the Union, It has, so far as In its power, dissolv ed it, and subjected ten States in time of profound peace to military despotism and negro supremacy; it has nullified there the right 'of i trial by jury ;, it has abolished ths habeas corpus—that most sacred writ of lib- . orty ; it has overthrown the freedom of speech and of the press ; it has substituted arbitrary seizures and arrests, and military trials and secret star chamber inquialtions for the constitutional tribunals; it has dis regarded in Urns of peace the right of the people to be free from searches and seizures; it has entered the post and telegraph ofilcom, and even private roomsof individuals, and seized their papers and letters without any specific charge or notice of affidavit, as required by the organic law ; it has converted the American Oapitol Into a bastile ; it has established n system of spies and official espionage to which no con stitutional monarch of Europe would now dare to resort ; it has abolished the right of appeal on important constitutional ques tions to the supreme Judicial tribunal and threatens to curtail ovdestroy its original jurisdiction, which is irrevocably vested by the constitution, which the learned Chief Justice has been subjected to the moat atrocious calumnies, merely because he would not prostitute his high office to the support of the false and partisan charges preferred against the President. Its cor ruptinn and , extravagance have exceeded anything, known in , history, and by its frauds and monopolies It has nearly doubled the burden of the debt created by the war. It has stripped the President of his constitutional power of appointment, even of his own Cabinet. Under its re- I pealed issqults the pillars of the govern• ment are r.1 , ...tpg on their base, and should succeed in iglitsvember next and inaugu rate its President, we will meet as a sub jected and conquered people amid the ruins of libarty.and the seattered fragmenta of the constitution.. , • , • , And we do declare and resolve that over since the people of the United States threw off all subjection to the British Crown the privilege and trust of suffrage have belong ed to the several States, and have been granted, regulated and controlled exclu sively by the political power of each State, respectively, and that any attempt by Con gress, on any pretext whatever,lo deprive any State of this right, or interfere with its exercise, is a flagrant usurpation of power which can find no warrant in the Constitu tion, and if sanctioned by the people will subvert our form of Government, and can only end in a single centralized and consoli dated government in ,which the separate existence of the . States will be entirely ab sorbed, and an unqualified despotism be established in place of a Federal Union of co-equal States. trtttett-we-reitatil the reconstruction acts (so-called) of Congiesl4 - ee - idlek - n usurpations and unconstitutional, revolu tionary and void. That our soldiers and sailors who, carried the flag of our country to victory against a most gallant and determined foe must ever be greatfully remembered and all the guar antees given in their favor must be faith fully carried into execution. That the public lands should be dis tributed as widely as possible among the people and should be disposed of either under the pre-emption of homestead lands, or sold In reasonable quantities, and to none but actual occupants, at the minimum price established by the Government. When grants' of the public lands may be allowed, necessary for the encouragement of important public linprovements, the pro , reeds of the este of such lands themselves, should beso applied. That the President of the United States, Andrew Johnson, is exercising the power of his high office in resisting the aggressions of Congress upon the constitutional rights of the States and people, is entitled to the gratitude of the whole American people, and in behalf of the Democratic party we tender him our thanks for hie patriotic efforts in that regard. Upon this platform the Democratic party appeal to every patriot, including all the, conservative element, and all who desire to support the constitution and restore the, Union, forgetting all past differences of opinion, to unite with us in the present great struggle for the liberties of the people, and to all such, to whatever party they may have heretofore belonged, aye extend the right hand of fellowship,. and batten 'inch co operating will:ibis as friends and brethren.. .1,212;911,270 41 387,083,198 79 202,947,537 42 229,914,074 00 TO tots State the eyes of the country are now turned.

Thus in case of the succe s s ofthe Radical faction, the lahoring mon will be brought fade to face 'with these results, namely, op. pressive taxation for the benefit of privi leged classes, amounting to twenty-live per. cent, of alliheir earnings. They pay it io increased rents, In the increased price or food and clothing, in fact, every thing which they consume. At the same time money will bo scarce and money (=dull to bo ob-1 tinned.

Quincy Adams,. the :,Democratio nominee for 'Governor of Dittasachtisette, thus spestka et:Radical reconstruction in h /OWL' aecopting the nomination' Ti bellevelthat true statesmanship'Mt& have imposed on. the Southern leaders the task of bringlngtheir people back, into the Union by frankly and confidently offering to them the day they laid down theirarme, the righthand of oblivion of the past and reconciliaten in the future,' which they might reject if they wished or• disreti. "Re construction" has scorned thetvproteste, repelled their aid, insulted thelrfoisery and inflicted on them an abasement which they felt to bo intolerable, in pogiing over them their slaves of yesterddy to secure their pledge of submission to the con stitution. But for this ungenerous and suspicious policy I believe we might now have been a truly united people, the South ern white reconciled to the inevitable, the negro secure inhis civil rights, and attain-. lug political privileges as he-grew fit to use them wisely, and the North enabled by a victory more noble than any, feat of arms— the conquest of its ownpassions. I will not argue the unconstitutionality, of "recon struction." The almost unaninpus disin clination of the Republicans 1i Congress to allow it to undergo the scrutiny,f the Su preme Court, would seem to confirm the reported statement of the lamented Stevens, "that only two damned fools in-the party believed the Reconstruction acts to be con stitutional." Even if they were so, I should deem them unwise. The Union they impose la to my eyes no more like a One Union of hearts and hands than a galeante corpse resembles a healthy . man. All the doings of men are governed by the laws of nature. The attempt to subordinate the, trained and able classes of white landholders at the South to the poor, ignorant, debased, and landless freedmen, is one &those futile struggles to repeal God's law by statute with which history abounds. It-must fail, bat it laof great moment that it should ho pdopped at once. Every day it lasts It enconraging false hopes in rho negro and 'rendering a resumption of a true relation bet Ween the blacks and whites more difficult. I . think that neither the Instincts nor the destiny of this peo ple, will . allow any. permanent domi nation to the African race in any State of the Union. But the Republican party is Irrevocably pledged to this, idea. They have staked. their existence as a party on Its triumph. To this Idol' they sacrificed their 'constitutional obligations in the past, and for 1t they must find fresh offerings In the future, The blacks must have lands and, arms and a standing army to maintain them in their false position. They are clam oring for them cow, and the United States must .furnish them. The path,upon which Congress has entered permits of no halt, and :rbtruat,o rain.
