The Banner County The State Central Conimilice offers a Banner costing $3OO to the county which gives ii November the largest per cent• , oge of 'limn - cave (11'-r ifs eufe in October. Democrats! let us win this Banner for Lancaster county. We can do it. Our vote in October last in this county was no greater than the vote we polled in I (h(i, two years ago; showing conclu sively that our rui vote was not out thin year. At !east ten per cent. of our 'strength was not developed in October If we bring this out in November we wilf-surely win the Banner. Let us work then to gain this proud honor so ° y that oppressed as we are by a heavy Re w,publican majority, our earnestness in youlie cause of Democracy may be known tio ailLtf , all men by the proof that we have t h a ollantly earned the Banner of the ate! Shall Congress Rule Wrenn? At this lat; hour of the pending Presidential contest, we do not need t make long arguments to convince Demr ocrats of the correctness of the principles advocated by their party. The distinc tions which exist between the twogreat parties are so plain and broad that they can not be mistaken or misunderstood. For eight years the Republican party has had almost absolute control of the Federal Government. For almost four years of that time profound peace has prevailed, and, with a two•thlyd major ity in Congress, there has been no check upon the party in power. It has been able to pass every measure devised by Its leaders, and by reducing the Execu tive to a mere cypher, and muzzling the Supreme Court, it has removed every obstacle which stood in the way of a complettexecution of the decrees of this centralized Congressional oligarchy. The actions of the Radical Congress are matters of history, and the people are to determine whether they will sur render all the powers of the Federal Government to the legislative branch, in which the Radicals have arranged to keep up their undue majority by In famous gerrymandering of States, by depriving white men of the rightto vote, by conferring suffrage upon barbarian negroes, and by expelling every Demo• crat who was not elected by an enor mous mujority. General Grant has pledged himself to have 110 policy of his own. He thus opeuiy declares in advance that he will sanction every act of Congress, no matter how unconstitutional and revo lutionary it may be. The light is between the people and the Radical Congress? The masses are to determine on Tuesday next, whether we shall have four years more of such rule us these Jacobins hare giVen us. If Grant tells the truth he Intends to make himself the mere tool of the cor rupt crew which has brought so many misfortunes upon the country. Every vote cast for him will be a vote to en courage the Radical majority of Con• grew in their usurpations. Let the people remember that, only by the election of Seymour and Blair, can any check be given to the fanatics and corrupt men who make up the Rad loal majority in Congress. The ques tion to be decided is, shall such a Con yr( ss ruldjirith supic Inc authority' It Is the most momentous question ever presented to the American people. Upon the manner in which it shall be decided on Tuesday, the future of this nation depends. I f the people would preserve Constitutional government, re• store the ['don, and guarantee the rights and liberties of the citizen, they must cheek the usurpations of the Rad -1 eel Congress at once. Four years more of such rule us we have had, will leave nothing of the Government established by the founders ol• our Republic. The last hope is ntultct k c ut he result of Tues day's election. OEM Let every Deiniwrat and every Cou ,ervative remember this; and let all sue'', labor as they never did before to save their cotnttt•y and themselves from impending, ruin. The Penny Whistle seems to be troubled by the meeting of the Demo cratic County Committee yesterday and exclaims, apparently In great astonish ment, at the fact, that the Democracy are not idle. Nobody hut a donkey would ever have imagined that the Democracy were idle; that is not their style. The Mikes of Surveyor• and Auditor I leneral of the State were so uniwpnrtanl ill themselves that many Democrats at the late election neglected to vote; but they will not neglect to ca,,t, their laddots when the election of a President of the Butted States is the Hue. The close result of the recent election has demonstrated to every Democrat the value of a stogie vote ; and we do not believe that one of them will spare any trouble or exertion, or sacrillee, that will he required from him, in order that his ballot may be deposit ed for the candidates of his choice. A report was made to the County Committee, yesterday, that Mr. lien• ode, superiLtendent of the Gap Nickel Works, had discharged some of file em ployecs, lone of them a man by the name of Jeremiah Sullivan,) because he voted for the Democratic ticket in October. This was said to have been done in pursuance of a threat which had previously been made. A commit tee was appointed to investigate the facts, with instructions if they were found to be as reported, to have a com plaint entered before a Justice of the Peace, to the end that so gross an of• fence against the laws might he punish ed. Reports were made of similar conduct on the part of large manufac turers in Lancaster, Columbia, Marietta and elsewhere in the county, and an other committee of three was raised to inquire into the facts, and take such action as might be found to be necessa ry to protect the rights or the working man. It was the unanimous sentiment of the Committee that these outrages on the part of Republican employers, had gone far enough and must he stopped. The law makes IL penal to attempt to influence a man's vote by discharging or threatening to discharge hint from employment on account thereof, and the Committee determined to assume the cost and trouble of prosecuting to con vietlot all who at the October elec. lection tool violated it. Demooracy is alive and confident of success in Novetnber. They know that they were cheated out of the few thousand voles which made up the R.e• publican majority in the State at the October election ; they know that they have a large reserve force of voters which did not emne out in October, but which will rally in ICovAnber to the universal demand for a change of Ilonal policy, and sweep the State for Seymour and Elnir by a majority cif fifteen thousand. Every true Demo crat is warmed up to the work which is before him, and will labor for the cause as though its salvation depended on his exertions alone,—and that spirit will Election In Baltimore At the City Council election iu Balti more on the 2.tith instant the regular Democratic candidates were elected in all the wards by very large majorities. 'the whole number of votes cast was 1.,617, against 37,163 registered. The Radicals say this election has no pullticul significance. That is always their cry when elections go against them.' The official vote of Indiana has just bee❑ published. The total vote was Republican 171,575; Democratic 170,L CI I; Radical majority JUI. The Democracy intend to wipe that out flex! Tuesday. The official vote of lffiio foots up AR follows: Radical 267,068; Democratic '249,687. Radical majority 17,381. The gallant Democracy of Ohio are not without hopes of overvotnim. that next Tuesday. llepublk, or Empire? THE REPUBLIC! No EmpinE is the Democratic watchword. Seymour and Blair are the advocates for the coutinuanceof the Republic, and a return to constitutional liberty. Grant and Colfax are the representa tives of the Army and the wealthy class interests of the country, and the fore runners of the "Empire of North America." Which, voters, shall it be—Republic or Empire? DOWN with Radicalism! It means taxes forever, test oaths, white disfran chisement, and negro mastery. THE LANCASTER WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4 1868. The Radical papers are filled with terrible.itories of murders committed in the South. In all these tales of hor ror rebels are represented as killing negroes and Northern men in cold blood. That there is more or less dis order in the South no one will deny.— The only wonder is that it is not greater. The policy adopted by Congress has been calculated to array the two races in deadly hostility to each other.— The negroes have been completely de• moralized in many sections by appeals made to their passions by worthless ' white adventurers, who are willing to see anarchy and bloodshed prevail, if amid the confusion they could seize upon the spoils of office. The negroes have in many instances committed the most horrible crimes. White men have been murdered in the most dastardly manner, and defenceless white women ravished by gangs of these brutal bar barians. Yet we see no report of such things in Radical papers. They con ceal them from the eyes of their read ere. The negro is painted as a pattern of loyalty and good conduct, while the whites are constantly maligned and misrepresented. The truth Is the re construction acts were the basis of a war of races, and the disturbances In the South are but the legitimate fruit of the seed sown by a Radical Congress. The deeds of violence which are reported by Radical Journals are many of them fabricated, while the rest always turn out to have been greatly exaggerated. In a vast ma;ority of instances a care• ful investigation has shown thatnegroes excited to outrage by appeals to their passions were the first aggressors. But what of murders in the North.— In New York, and all our Northern cities murders and homicides are the most common occurrences. And in Puritan New England the past year has fitruislied ,-record of the most horrible crimes, whielt r irwould put to the blush any territory of equal population in the South. In u single sparsely settled county of New Ilainpshlre no less than five persons are now in fail awaiting trial for different murders. The knife, the pistol and the poison cup is as fa miliar to the hands of the whining and Psalm singing Yankee, as to that of the inhabitants of a warmer climate. In the South the increase of murder is at tributable to the war of races which has been inaugurated by the Radical policy. In canting, hypiicritical New England It is the result of avarice, irreligion and intemperance. Let Northern Radicals remove the beam that is in their own eyes, then will they see more clearly to remove the motes in the eyes of their Southern brethren. Lessons Taught by the Louisiana Riots. ' The transactions which have taken place in Louisiana within the past few days afllird an instructive commentary on the Radical system of Reconstruc tion. The most terrible disorder has prevailed. The negroes have been guilty of the grossest outrages, and their bru tality has provoked retaliation. Mur der and arson have been committed with impunity. The civil government, a miserable, bastard Radical concern, has proved to be utterly powerless. The negro police are found to be worse than useless. They lied from the streets, hid at the first sign of danger, and have not been seen since. And now the New York Tribune is complaining because the Radical authorities have been com pelled to appoint white pollee to take tile places of the skulking black cow ards. It says the new appointees are rebels. If they are they happen to be the choice of the Radical State and city officials. This thing ought to be suffi cient to convince every sensible man of the utter absurdity of the Radical policy of Recoustruction. It is the must per nicious scheme ever devised. It breeds riots as readily as the sun goes maggots In a rotting camas.' It has sown the seeds of a war of races ; and the distur bances in Louisiana and elsewhere are its legitimate fruit. There never can be anything like peace in the South while au attempt is made to keep the white man In subjection to the negro. Those who expect it are fools; those who talk most about it are designing and despicable political knaves. Far Off Cows have Long Horns. The Philadelphia Post publishes the billowing special despatch: LANCASTER, Oct. I:9.—The torchlight pa rade this evening, under the auspices of the tirant and CiliißX TATIIIOrS' Clot,, proved a brilliant demonstration. At least tiny dis tinct clubs et ITIViECHROS, Tanners, Boys in Blue, etc., were in line. The procession formed in North Duke street, and after passing over a long, route, was dismissed at the Court I louse. Many buildings were decorated, and the illuminations were quite general. This is unquestionably one of the latest specimens of telegraphic lying we have seen. No doubt the Post will be astonished to learn that this "brilliant detnonstration" in which "at least fifty distinct clubs of Invincibles, Tanners, Boys in Blue, etc.," took part was only two squares in length, and composed of men and boys, marching four abreast at a distance of from sixteen to twenty , five feet apart. "Far off cows have long horns," says the old proverb; and in this case it has been unquestionably verilled. Radical Frauds. There seems to be no end to the frauds perpetrated by the Radicals at the recent State election. In one district in Arm strong county the Radical Assessor left the names of over fifty citizens off his list, and some forty of them were refused the right to vote. 'Phis game aroused indignation throughout the county. The:same thing was.practiced elsewhere, but will all be remedied in time fur next Tuesday. Murder North and South. No tTuion soldier can vote in recon structed Alabama or Arkansas unless he swears he is no better than a negro. The Union soldier is not sacred, you see. If he w•auts to disregard this require ment, lie wants to overturn carpetbag government, and is a bloody-minded traitor, revolUtioulst, and rebel. But the negro equalit)i business is sacred—more sacred than the soldier•. UNDER the present Radica I system workingmen are taxed to support sixty thousand Federal officeholders. One half of the money wrung from the peo ple in taxes goes to support these pen sioners upon the Treasury. This is one of the " blessings " to be perpetuated by the election of General Grant. JOHN C. FREMONT told one truth in ISGI, when he said that the policy of the Radical party had " needlessly put the "country on the high road to bank " ruptcy." It has pot lost the way yet, but has almost reached the place for which it was started. The election of Grant will complete the programme. TUE RepublicaL majority in the State on the Congressional vote is but seven thousand four hundred and thirteen (7,113). Democrats remember the importance of one vole. In 1810 Marcus Morton wus electial Dovernor of 'Massachusetts by a majority or one vote, thus Ntorton Everett and scatusring Morton's majority In 1844, henry Clay carried Tennessee by a majority of only 113 out of a poll of 110,1100 votes. In IStif, Harrison carried Pennsylvania by 343 votes, and Maine by 310, iu the lirst State 380,000 votes being polled, and to the second 00,000. klovernors and Presidents have been elected by the votes of single States, and States have been carried by The votes of individuals. Let every vote be polled. Fights occurred at New ()deans yest.or day between whites and negroes, several on both sides being killed. White police men are being appointed in place of the no gro police, who have failed to report for duty. Gov. \Yarmouth has issued a procla mation requesting abstinence from political processions until after the election. The report that a woman was among the killed in St. Bernard parish is contradicted. PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION RETVENS.

Governor Se9/1/10141* evidently stopped the rebel invasion, and arrested General Lee' s otherwise victorious march through Pennsyl. Vania to New York. And probably the establishment of the Southern Confederacy on a permanent basis of independence, with ✓ry% ferson Davis as Ito President, in eighteen hundred and sixty-eight. Major General Henry D. Slocum on Got. Hortaio &..ynaunr, As to the course of Gov. Seymour during the war, I know of no class whose oppor. tUrlities of forming en accurate judgment were more favorable than the soldiers. As New York Volunteers, you were under his charge until you left the State, and while in the field most of your officers were com missioned by him. He commissioned over 16,000 officers during his term of service—a duty as important as it was delicate. Of the manner in which the duty was per formed, who can form a better judgment than yourselves? In all his dealings with the immense number of volunteers sent from this State, neither political nor per sonal influence could ever Induce him to hazard the lives of our men, or in any man ner weaken their efficiency. These facts are a sufficient answer to all the charges of this nature ever brought against, Gay. Sey mour. . . ; there is ono charge to which his hon orable and patriotic course towards you will not be received as a sufficient reply ; one crime for which the zeal with which be hastened forward thousands of troops to the aid of Pennsylvania when :he was invaded, and contributions freely made by him for the benefit of our sick and disabled soldiers, will not atone. This charge has constituted' a theme for editors and Orators. It has appeared on baiitters in all Radical processions. In speaking to a mot) in New York he commenced his address with the words, "My friends." Governor Seymour first gained the attention of the excited men, and then pointed out to them the conse quences that must follow their unlawful acts—we know the effect of this course. 'We know that a Republican Mayor, and nearly the entire press of the city, immediately after the close of the riot, spoke of his course in the strongest terms of commendation. Mayor Oydyke, in reference thereto, said: "Governor Seymour to the end stood firm —everything that was possible for him to do was done, to aid in the suppression of the riots. " His conduct during those riots met my entire upprovel." Colonel H. S. Lansing on Gorcruor Seymour's ASuppression of the hew York Draft Riots, At New Dorp Barracks, Staten Island, I had about 750 men, belonging to a dozen different organizations. tin Monday, the day of the riots, I camp to Now York, and first heard on my arrival of the action of the rioters. Major-General-John E. Wool, United States Army, commanding this Dis trict, received front Major-General Sand ford, cbmmanding the First Division, New York State National Guard, a request that he, General Wool, would order the men on Staten Island to report for defence of the city. General Wool returned the communi cation to General Sandford, with the en. dorsement that " he could not order these men, as they were under the control of Governor Seymour, but immediately under commend of Colonel 11. S. Lansing." Gen. Sandford sent the communication to me with a request that I would order the men over. Guying had the honor of serving on Governor Seymour's staff in IFO2-03, and knowing him from boyhood, I knew, if present, he would at once order these men to New York, and acting accordingly, I had the satisfaction of receiving from him per sonally, the next day, a full approval and commendation of my action. I reported to General Sandford for orders with six companies, each 100 strong—GOO men. There was not an Meer in true command holding a United States commission, and it was this force that did the street fighting, aided by the cavalry, who afterwards ar rived from Riker's Island, under command of General, then acting Colonel Thaddeus P. Mott, and which command, with one or two exceptions, was like that from Staten Island, holding only Governor Seymour's warrant. Colonel O'Brien, killed ; Colonel Jardine, wounded, and Colonel Winslow (since died) who rendered good service, were none of them at the time in the service of the United States. Thus, you see, that the last thread that supports the infamous charge that Sey mour sympathized with the rioters is broken, for he and his officers and men alone saved the city, and put an end to the riots. Yours, H. S. LANSING Yon?c, August 24, 1868. Governor Seymour evidently stopped the New York draft riots, and through his virhole course supported both President Lincoln and Mayor Opdyke, both political opponents, in order to save New York city on the ono hand, and the Union on the other. Is not governor Seym,onr's honor and loyalty vindicated ? and will you not give "honor to whom honor is due?" and will you not vote for him who once saved the country to save it again from intestine strife —from equal, nay, greater evils—to save it perchance from utter ruin, chaos, from an tallationitself? Where &and the , Generals of the Army? The abOve question IS asked by the Al. bany Argos, and is answered as follows: To read the columns of the Radical papers, or to listen to their vituperative orators, we would think that no one was loyal except, the supporters of Grant atid Colfax—and that every one who rallied to the banner of Seymour and Blair was a traitor and rebel. Yet look at the records of the War Depart ment, and glance over the list of the men wild served during the war, and what names do we behold?

A still larger hat could be 1 uruished from the records of the War Department ; but the above is amply sufficient to show that the men who led our armies in defence of the Union, are now actin¢ with the Demo ' cratic party for the same - holy and patriotic purpose. Appeal to the Itittfrourhired Irtmh of the hoot'. to Their trio.h Fellow-t Ittzeum of the North. Fellow countrymen of the North: To you, who were born on the same soil ; to you, who, like ourselve, are natives of oppressed, down-trodden and sorrow-stricken Ireland —fellow•lrishmen, to you we appeal in this our day of distress and trial, of oppression and misrule. Like you of the North, we were °nee...citizens of the United States ; we had a share lit the election of the men who administered the government and of those who made the laws. We were recognized as an integral part of the body politic, and the most honored and respected of our fel low countrymen were elected to positions of trust, honor and distinction. Now all this is changed. We aro no longer citizens. We have been deprived of our right to vote, and in many places have been driven from WO polls. The Radical registrars have refused to enter our nitrites on their registration lists. Thousands and tens of thousands of our fellow countrymen In the Southern States have thus been disfranchised, while every negro who presents himself Is admitted to the rights of citizenship. We are to day regarded by the Radical part y as the infer iors of the negroes, and we have uo rights. political or otherwise, that they are bound ' to respect. Hundreds, yes, thousands of Irishmen have been deprived of the official positions to which they were elected or appointed in different cities throughout the South. We need not only refer to the rases of Mobile and New Orleans, where Irish ' men have deen ejected front offices, which were afterwards conferred on negroes. Fellow Irishmen of the North, all this has been done by the Radical party, which now asks your support, on the ground that it is the friend of the adopted citizen! Trust it not! Radicalism is K now-Noth ingism in another form. Ii that party gets into power another four years they will dis franchise you, Irishmen of the Northern Stilies, an they have disfranchised us, Irish- men of the Southern States. To you we aro now earnestly, anxiously, eagerly look ing for political redemption. Save us, by your votes, from the rule of the bayonet! Bear in mind that every Irishman who votes with the Radical party votes for our enemies. We entreat you by all you hold most dear not to be misled by so-called Irishmen in your midst—traitors who have sold out to our political enemies and yours, renegades who have accepted the ever ready bribe for the advocacy of a policy that has made us aliens in the land of our adoption and sujected us in this country to all the injustice and outrages inflicted upon us in the land of our birth, down-trodden and oppressed Ireland. Restore to us, through your honest, manly, honorable, unbought suffrages, the rights of citizenship—those rights of which we have been deprived, that we might be degraded by the Radical party below the level of the negro! Fellow Irishmen, we appeal to you by the wrongs and sufferings we now endure, by the love you bear to your wives and little ones, to save us from the blighting„ withering curse of negro rule and negro domination. Remember that every vote you give to the Radical candidates is vote given to keep us in political bondage and to subject our families to all the horrors of negro equality, Remember that it was here in the South that Nonothingisrn received its death blow from Henry A Wise, in Virginia, Alexander H. Stephens, in Georgia, and Andrew Johnson, of Tennes see. If you would free us from political bondage and negro supremacy vote against the party that has deprived us of our citizenship. Vote against the party that has made us the political Inferior of the negro. Vote against the party that Is now tna king the South another oppressed and downtrodden Ireland. We are now look ing to the success of Democratic candidates to free us from political bondage and the curse of mongrel rule. Endlea! him Photographed We know not to whom credit is due for the following, but it is so true a picture of Radicalism that we adopt it, verifying every sentence as an exact representation of one or another feature on the face of the falsely styled Republican party: Affecting economy, they have given ,us the costliest government on the earth. Prating of virtue, they have made It the roost corrupt. Clamoring for equal rights, they 'have proscribed more people than any monarchy in Christendom. Invoking freedom, they establish and maintain the darkest despotism in eleven States. Professing toleration, they proclaim the acceptance of their creed the alternative of ostracism and disfranchisement. Howlingabout purifying thegovernment, they have made dishonesty and other holding Identical. Calling themselves Unionists, they have consummated and maintained disunion. Preaching principle, they subsist by pas sion and prejudice. Deploriugoaste, they elevate blacks above whites, in one-third of the country. Magnifying loyalty, they have trampled out every worthy principle of our system. Claiming statesmanship, theirofilcials are either conspirators or thieves. Lauding independence, they are the ser vile slaves to a party caucus. Pretending to invite criticism, they stifle freedom of debate in Congress by partisan rules, and drown It elsewhere in blood. Insisting upon peace, they prolong the old war and strive to stir up a new one. They have made anarchy and call it peace. Pretension, without sincerity, is their programme to be carried out with tyranny. Their creed is hypocrisy, their peace is cant, their practice is then, their end is despotism. The National Debt—Official Below we give the official report of the national debt, furnished us by the Director of the United States Statistical Bureau, Hun. A. Delmar, and therefor official, and to be relied on. It convicts of falsehood those who say the national debt is V300,000,- 000 less at the present day than at the close of the war.

Schuyler CollazliSpeech, made in 1/335 After Hie Return from the Know- Scatting Convention, in Philadelphia. I From the Vincennes (Ind.) Sun.l An old Fenian friend of this city has handed as the following from his scrap book for publication. It is an extract from one among the many speeches delivered by Schuyler Colfax, Radical candidate for Vice President, on his return to Indiana trout the National Know-Nothing Conven tion, nt Philadelph, inlS's3. Read it: "Some tell me that many for- eizners are intelligent; yes, intelligent.— How in the name of Almighty God can they say it? Look at the Dutchman, amok-, log his pipe, and if you can see a ray of in- I teiligence in that dirty idiotic face of his show it to me! Look at that drunken, bloated Irishman, with rot-gut whiskey bottle in his pocket and he drunk, swearing and reeling, show me in that polluted face any spark of mortality intellect or education. The ideal is perfectly absurd; it is preposterous! "'A'e must change the laws of the land and prevent these IGNORANT DEGRADED PAUPERS here from voting and holding of/ice. They are a set of UNPRINCIPLED VILLAINS and RUFFIANS, who congre- ' gate in and around our large cities and vil laaes, and live by stealing and begging from Americans. Some tell me they have rights.

IThee are inferior in intellect and Intelli gence to this Americans, and then ikitisT I and SHALL BE PUT DOWN and KEPT DOWN, it it has to be at the point of ()aye net and with powder and lead. There is no ! use talking mincingly, or of fearing re- I sults in regard to the matter- lAI great cry has went up by old liners, about the foreigners being driven away Ifrom the polls, and not being allowed to vote. This 1 suppose is true in many re• I spects. Would you have the American citizen stand back, and let a bloated, red visaged, drunken bride of an Irishman vote instead of himself? See the wretch as be approaches; his knees knocking, and the slobber of tobacco running down his Jaw, and as he comes you hear him "burro for democracy," aid here he comes, fresh from the bogs just one year ago, and wants ! to vote—and because the boys cry " move Mtn," and he gets knocked.down for im pudence, a great cry Is about it by old line demagogues. I SAY IT' IS RIGLIT —let them stand back, Again: You see a lop-eared, wide mouthed, mullet-headed dutchman coining up just from some hut lu the Lund of ' Kraut; with the foam, of beer still sticking in his horse-tail whiskers, and his breath smelling of garlic and onions, enough to kill a white man 300 yards, and before he can say anything in the world but "democrat," he must vote, and that vote counts as touch as yours or mine. This is outrageous and abominable. These foreigners that have carried elections for old liners will have to learn their places. THEY HAVE NO MORE MOUT TO VOTE THAN THE BRUTES OF THE FIELD, AND HAVE Nol"ruli SENSE OF A GOOD NEW FOUNDLAND DOG ; AND GOD KNOWS 'THAT WERE I A CANDIDATE FOR ANY OFFICE I WOULD TELL THESE PAUPERS AND VAGABONDS, THESE VILE, DIRTY, FILTHY, DEGRADED, IDIOTIC R FOEIGNERS, I DID NOT WANT THEIR VOTE, AND IF I EVER AM A CANDIDATE I HOPE TO GOD 1 ' WILL NEVER GET TuF.M.." Aro You Sure? There are thousands of people who would list vote for Benjamin F. Wade, for Presi dent, but who intended to vote for U. S. Grant. To these we put this question, Are you sure thai in voting fur the Badi cal electors, you cost your ballot for Grant, Not one of the candidates on any Radi cal electoral ticket In the Union, is pledged to vole fur any particular person. Hitherto it has been the custom of State Conventions to jiledge the electors they nominated, to the support of a certain candidate; but this time the Radical tricksters who manage the Radical party, quietly adJorned the several State Conventions without making any pledge of this sort. Why was this done? Because they thought an emergency might arise which would render it necessary for thein to drop Grunt and to give Me Electoral votes they might secure through the pa estige of his name, to Ben. Wade, or some other ex treme Radical. Even now tte Union Leagues are secret ly discussing the propriety of offering Grant a salary of 3:25,000 per annum,as ''General of all the Armies," to-ipduce him to withdraw before the assembling of the Electoral Col lege, so that that the Radical Ele'itors may vote for Wade. Even now Benj. F. Butler, Wendell Phil lips and other personal enemies of Grant are laying a plot by which some of the New England and Southern carpetbag electors are to be entrapped into voting for Wade, with a view of throwing the election Into the House of Representatives, in which body Wade would be chosen on the first ballot. Are you sure, then, 0 most Innocent and confiding of men, that your vote will be cast for U. S. Grant, for President, if you give it in favor of the Radical electors? Think a moment! Have not the Radicals broken faith with the peopiein a hundred instances; in regard to the objects for which the war was to have been pt °scouted, iu regard to the re storation of the Union, In regard to the trial of Jefferson Davis, in regard to their oaths to support the Constitution, iu regard to the payment of the public debt, etc., etc.; and do you fondlyimagine that they are not capsule of deceiving you in this partic ular? Beware ! .—Harrisburg Patriot West Virginia Despotism We have been surprised more than once at the want of information abroad, even in the adjoining States, concerning West Vir ginia despotism. It is a fact of easy demonstration, that even the Southern States, ruled as they are by the sword, are more free to-day than the always loyal State of West Virginia. In this State there are not less than twen ty-live thousand disfranchised citizens,— So, not " citizens !" for the amended Con stitution of the State declares that they can never become citizens; although they were born on her soil, have lived here all their lives, and are heavily taxed to support the municipal, State and National Govern ments, They are aliens on their native soil, as far as the State Constitution can make them aliens. In this county alone, there are j,400 dis franchised men, comprising the wealth, publicintelligence, spirit, and moral worth of Greenbrier. In this town, with a population of 1,200, there are only eight voters; and yet in this county there is not one disloyal man, ex cepting the Radicals, who are all disloyal. In West Virginia there are not less than 21,000 men who cannot hold any office, sit on a jury, or teach a public school. In West Virginia there are not less than 23,000 men who cannot obtain judgments upon old debts duo them, or enforce con tracts. In West Virginia the taxes for couqty and township purposes are eight times heavier than before the war. lu Wet Virginia we hav4 live paid an care new for one before the war. In West Virginia the salaries of county officers are double, and some of them tre ble, of what they were before the war. In West Virginia, especially in the border counties, the officers are, with few excep tions, filled by the most Ignorant and vi cious of the population. InWest Virginia, three men in each coun ty, known as the County;L'oard of Regis tration, are actually licensed, by an act of the Legislature, to enter on record that their fellow citizens are perjurers ! In West Virginia the County Boards of Registration have entire control of every office in the State. The Board of Registra tion of Ohio county can unseat Governor lioremnn by merely scratching his name from the list of registered voters. The Board of Registration of Monroe county can unseat Judge Nat. Harrison In the same way. No man can hold office unless he is a voter. No man can be a voter un less he Is registered. No man can register, or remain registered, without the consent of the County Boards of Registration.— Scratch Boreman's name or Harrison's name from the Registry, and the sceptre of power drops from their nerveless grasp! Did such a slate of things ever before ex ist in any ..iyilized country? Has as mean, contemptible, sneaking, cowardly, brutal a despotism as that of West Virginia ever before rejoiced the hearts of devils, or called for the avenging bolts of Heaven I' "Mountaineers always free!" Oh, what a mockery of a noble sentiment! What a brazen-faced lie ! There is no freedom in these mountains, except the freedom of Ignorance and villainy to lord it over intel ligence and honesty.—Greenbrier Independ ent. 2,..112.3,437,002 . 2,643,2:56,225 Local Election In Baltimore—The Demo crate Ey eriwbere Vletprlous BALTIMORE. Oct. 28.—The election to-day fur members of Councils passed off very quietly. The Democrats were everywhere successful. In many of the wards the Radi cals made no opposition. The city will give a rousing majority for Seymour and Blair. Fred. Douglass, one of the Let-Us-Rave- Peace-Men, with a bayonet 41 one hand and a torch in the other, tells the negroes to " Remember that a United States mbsket is better than all parchment guarantees of liberty." So that's what It comes to. If you want to hear the echoes of this infernal ad vice, listen to them in the craekling timbers of Southern homes and in the 'volleys of black brigades all over the South. GOVERNOR SEYMOUR IN TOE WEST speech nt Chleago Cltickao, ILL., Oct. 21.—Gov. Seymour addressed an Immense meeting of the De mocracy In Court House Squaro to-night. Ho spoke to the following effect: Fellow• citizens : W nen too reboil ion was put down, tha task of restoring order, of 'bringing back business to its proper chan nels, and of reviving fraternal regard In the hearts of the citizens of all parts of our Union tell upon the party in power. I have no disposition to underrate the difficulties which attended the performance of that duty, if it was entered upon in the right spirit. Large allowances should he made for many mistakes. The magnitude of the duty, the far-reach ing consequences of the polioy which should be adopted with regard to it, imposed upon the men in power solemn responsibilities. Any indulgence in passion, anytipirit of vindictiveness, any purpose to 'advance personal or partisan objects, were great crimes against our country. They involved a degree of guilt as black as any known. In the then mndition of affairs, selfish or malignant passions were as cruel as the ravages of war. I will not dwell upon the character of the debates In congressional halls, nor upon the temper shown by those who have shaped the action of our government for the past four years. The record can be read by each citizens for himself, and at ibis time it Is the duty of every voter to decide If he is satisfied wits the spirit shown by those who now ask him to continue them in place. Turning from the question of our rulers, let us see how far they have suc ceeded In the work at' restoration. It Is clear that disorganization In the local system, In business pursuits and moral condition In the country could not be remedied by force. Power may have been desired in some sections to restrain violence, brit It could do no more. The healing influence must spring from large statesmanship. It was the Only of those who controlled public affairs patiently and carefully to use every measure calculated to allay all passions or preludices ongen dered by the war, either at the North or the South. To do this, Intercourse between the sections should bo encouraged. Tee business Interests of each section anti the relationship which they bear to the common welfare must be considered. As despair always tends to disorder, cure must be taken to promote the prosperity of every section. Communities in the enjoyment of successful business or of prosperous com merce are not inclined to have these de spoiled by lawlessness or violence. Ilave those great truths been kept in view by nor rulers? You know, my fellow.citizens, that from time to thne their most wise and thoughtful leaders and their most Influential journals have been forced to denounce in strong terms the conduct of the Congress ional party. In its National Convention the Republi can party bused its claims to the continued support of the American people upon the ground of a successful management of their affairs. By en doing they challenged a scrutiny of their measures. Since the tian vase commenced they have been driven from the position whlch they first held.— Then they congratulated the people upon the success of their reconstruction policy in the first words they uttered in their series of resolutions. To-day their journals and their speakers tell you the South is lull of violence and disorder. Driven from the ground that their Minu test or political policy was wiser or more fortunate, they have fallen back upon the questions of the past. They seek to revive in a period of peace the passions of war, Nay, more than this, I see that in a speech made last night by Mr. Colfax, their can didate for the Vice Presidency, that he kin full and rapid retreat. Ile has got back as fares the Kansas troubles and the Dred Scott decision. [Laughter.] Retrospective reviews are sometimes profitable, and when things look dark ahead they may be pleasant. At this mo ment we are confronted by Imminent dan gers anti serious difficulties. Wu we to our business men, to our mechanics anti our laborers, in an earnest and thoughtful way, to tied out how we rimy relieve them from their porplexites and burdens. I will speak tomight with regard to some of them which concern espectally the Northwestern and Southern States. and through them the interests of our whole country. Before the Tate rebellion, as the great cottomprodur- Mg country 01 the world, we have advan tages over all rival nations. This product stimulated our commerce and gave the material needed to our manu facturers, and brought In return for Its price from other lands the merchandise needed by our people, or turned the balance or trade in our favor, and tilled the vaults of our banks with gold or silver money. As till the labor of the South was eligugeti in this ',mutable culture, they bought their provisions mainly from this and adjoining States, 111141 thus the corn, the wheat, the beef and pork or thus region were turned into cotton, and ln that shape reached the markets of Europe, which they could not du in their original conditions. When the civil war broke out and this process wait stopped, corn fell so low In some parts of the \Vest It was used for fuel, and.great distress prevailed. The doinund for our armies end the markets of the cent and of Europe restored its value, but ex perience has taught you that you cannot with safety count upon being able to send, at all times, your products to distant mar- kets. Your interests demand that the pros perity of the South should be restored at the earliest moment. We want them to help us pay our taxes. The interests of our whole country de mand that the culture of cotton should be revived. Our foreign and internal coin , ' merce is languishing for the want of this. The negro of the South cannot be advanced in civilization and made a good anti order ly citizen unless he is profitably employed, and his planter cannot pay his wages un less he takes money for his crops. What was the first steps taken by those in power when time South, prostrated, poor and dis organized at the end of the war, tried to carry on the work of raising cotton with the aid of the enfranchised African. The negro had, in many respects, n deeper interest in the success of the trial than the white man. His very existence as n race, the whole judgment of the world as to his capacity to do the duty of an American citi zen, hangs upon his success. Did these rulers stretch.out the helping hand Y No; they said to the white man and negro alike, "We will not let you get the full value of your products in the markets of the world. We will put n heavy tax on the cotton which you send out of the country, and you shall sell it to eastern manufacturers for less than its value In the European mar kets." Now this act was not only cruel but it was revengeful. It crushed the first efforts of reviving industry—it pushed Lack an impoverished and disorganized people in their efforts to b.:11(1 up a social system, It was one of the first great causes of the disorders which exist at the South. The unpaid African could not understand why his employer was unable to pay him his wages, end was tilled with hatred and rage towards him, and the employer found his slender menus and low credit still fur ther weakened. In whose interest was this wrodg done? In that of the cotton IN/MCI. factures of the East, whose profits have been enormous, and who are protected by the highest tariffs. How did this measure tell upon the farm ers of the West? The planter could not buy your corn or pork, and was compelled, by starvation, to raise these things for Maisel; you lost the markets you should have gain ed,. and the export duty on cotton proved to be an export duty on corn. livery one tells you that agriculture lies at the basis of a nation's prosperity and happiness. Every one knows that there is distress all over our land if product) does not call for fair prices. Yet, Just here usury is eating away ut the very founda tions of commerce and of national wealth. Is this a matter of necessity or does it grow out of your rulers and out of follies against which they were warned at the outset by myself and others when our official ditties called upon us to protest against them? Why today in your competition with com mercial cities of the East are your grow ing cities of the West thus trammelled by want of 11 circulating medium, thus loaded clown try au interest that no business com munity can pay and prosper in the long run? \lien I look over the statements I find that more than fifty, seven millions of this currency was given io the State of Massa chusetts, and less than ten millions to the State of Illinois, yet coo have twice the population of Massachusetts; yet that State needs bat a small amount, while yours re quires more currency than any other State in the Union. If discriminations were to ne made, the interests of our whole country demanded that they should be in favor of ! agricultural States. If distribution had been' tnade In proportion topopulation you would have had shout twenty millions of this currency, and Massachusetts about ten. The adjoining States of Wisconsin, Mich igan, lowa and others would also have a much larger proportion than they get now. The State of California and Territories of ! Montana, Idaho and Utah have some mil lions less circulation than the single State of Massachusetts. You would have gained, too, in another respect. As these States had at the time this currency was distributed capital to take it up themselves, if it had been allotted to them, capitalists of the East would hardly have brought their money here to employ it in this region in the busi ness of banking. This addition to the bu siness capital of the West would have made a great change In your affairs. Interest would not at this time have ranged at present rates. A vast amount of money would have been permanently used to promote your Interest and prosperity, and we at the East should have been saved from great moral and busine,s evils. While you are getting forward your crops this currency is forced into this section by the high rate of interest paid for it. During the winter It accumulates In vast volumes in the great cities of the East. There is no want of it there, for any fair purposes, and if these banks were here, this money could be lent for useful objects; but those who hold it, anxious to get some In terest, invite speculative movements in stocks or in produce which have been so hurtful to pu.siness and morals. Not un frequently provisions which have been gathered in the storehouses of our cities are bought up. The price of food SS raised against our laborers, exportation Is stopped, and great misery is often caused in the horned of those who live bYdaily toil. • He who will carefully look' into the evils growing out of this violence done to all fair ness, all wise statesmanship will See that it has been a curse alike to the East and West: When ft you go to iour local' hanker to get Mlle to pay for prodUcts of your State, be is obliged to go to the East and borrow these bills in that section, then to charge you further usury, so that you pay interest to two bankers. Therefore It Is that discount upon your paper Is at such ruinous rates. Or, to mate it In other terms, Illinois pave interests to Massachusetts upon what should be its own money. You of the West are tributary to the East for circulation which rightfully belongs to the West. The men in power who did Oda thing, your own representative's who con sented to this law, now ask your approval of their conduct. If It is a good thing to have more than seventy dollars of currency to each person in Rhode Island, why Is tt not a good thing to have an equal volume in your own State ? Is It right that Marten chusetts should have fifty-two dollars to each citizen while Illinois has but six, and Michigan and Wisconsin but three dollars. The views I hold upon this subject are not those which spring forward now for the first nine when I am a candidate for your votes. Years since, when I wile (illVerllllr of the State of New York, as It was my duty, I looked to see what made its great - noes and prosperity, and found our chief city was enriched because it was a vast agency to sell the productions of the people of the United States, and to buy for them what they needed from other countiles. We who lived in the interior had the bene fit of carrying upon our canals sod roads ! persons and property of citizens of other sections. We found our chief support eves our relationship with the West. In my message to the Legislature I urged It to enlarge th intercourse by a wise and liberal policy; that we ought to carry west -1 ern produce to all free on our canals ratlwr than softer its diversion Into other channels. Rut when I lookito the action of the gen ! era IC4rovernment„si cannot see that they have given any regard to a matter that more than all others concerns your welfare. I see taxation put upon it repeatedly. At , an early peril in the world's history taxes 1 were taken in kind front grain by the gov -1 ernment as toll is taken by the miller. If tills evils practiced now, and the value of every tax and every stamp upon a bushel 1 of wheat us It passes from the land of the I tanner to the use of the consumer was taken 1)111 of the bushel Itself, how much would there be left of ita original bulk? If any one would take pains to calculate all this as it was dipped out by tax in all I hands, vessels and elevators through which it must pass, he would rind It badly shrunk ' en when it had run the whole gauntlet, of 1 imposts. Citizens of Illinois, I object to the I conduct of those In power that they 11:1r1 , not given thought or attention to those and other great subjects which deeply concern you. I objet t If, their mnilnet In this entivasm that, giving up their defence of their own action, they drive away your thou ghtn from nu bJ ectsthat most concern You,and that they attempt to Inflame partisan zeal end pan• sions by keeping all the animosity engen lured by civil war. Will our country ever be led nut of ito difficulties by following in much pathways? Will our policy of the pant four years continued for a WITH or equal length bring no out and place our Interests upon dam toundathin“ ? I appeal to every thought Cu I Republican If the teachings of history or lehnons of morality lead Win to the coact anion that the Republican party should continue to hold unchecked power ? They do not merely ask that they shall have muhatantial control of this country, but they demand, in addition to the Senate and the Howie of Representatives, and the army under command of their own Candi date, that the executive power should ffino be placed under tteir direction. Mote than 5-1,000,000,0ne have been drawn front the people of these United States since the lb,- publican party took control of the reigns of government. Thin vast nom has been paid to some one. It would be an °any thing for those who have kept the reeordn to let the ; public know moniethlpg of the details of ex- peones. Par example, nenities the expenses of the Navy Department, a grout many vra nein have been bought or chartered by ILO, Win' Department for tho purpose of trans pollution. It would not ,•ost us murk ti print a list of these vessels and of !T.,' ' with whom the government dealt and oi I prices given, an it tune costs to forms!, members of Congress with pen knives. I this list was published, wo should know if there had been fair or foul dealingn in this., trannections. Unless there is motto , change of those in power the action of the depart went cannot be laid hare. The honor and Interests of the country demand much an examination us shall dis pel the munpicion which now iixints In the public mind ; which shall bring guilty men to ffiminffinent if wrongs have been done. As the mattor now stands there is utter con fusion. After the official wtatentent of our debt had been put Milli to the public , und received by it for yearn as a true stales tnent, an Ingenious :number of t 'ongrenna, sorted that the public debt had hero les- Honed about t1t100,000,000 more than we sup. posed. Unfortunately, this ntatement, which otherwise might have been no comfortable, did not diminish till, amount or our presort indebtodnesn, but it wan to show that at one time we owed much more than tvu supposed, much Mere than hail Won stated and, therefore, tea had paid [fore. Tina linnenlent was accepted by political leaders. and by 'mint of the (illicit &m of the Republi can party, although it wan In contradict bin of the nolemn assurances ',YMC] they hail lie fore given, front t to time, eland our financial condition. What can we think, and what can the' world think of this Hynteto of acisitints which admits of much monstrous discrep ancies, and what count be thought of the morality that either now puts forth a grime misstatement, or by Its own showing de ceived the people do the pant ? 'Phu truth , In, our moneyed afrairm are In utter coffin , dion. 'rho Government cannot give to this world, it cannot give to the people. a state ment which shown where we stand. An ()Moor of a corporation who should stand before Its stockholdern, an this party stands to-day before the people of the coun try, giving out such confused and conflict ing !statements, would be disgraced In the eyes of business men. For thin reason our credit is lower than that of Turkey. lam advised that a leading Journal of thin city proposed to make our currency art good an gold by contracting Ito volume. 'Phis may bo done! but not mit II It has crushed every debtor and business man in the hunt and when ruin la brought, it will be found you cannot make a bank note bearing interest worth more than a bond which secures It, which pays nano than ter per cent interest. You can't lift up our currency to its nominal volute until our bonds are made worth their faCe, paid in the currency of the world. Thin welt not be done until you have a wise and holiest administration of the government. The Republican party has fulled to make the world believe that it is wine and honest. Our bonds pay a large interest, and it in the want of credit and trust in the management of our national 'drain which alone minks them in the markets of tho world. With good credit wo could flout a much larger currency than we now have—we could re hove business men from enormous interest —we could leaven taxation, for wo could lower the interest accounts which we now have to pay, We could advance prices paid to laborers on farms and In workshops, because all transactions of life would be noon an easier scale. The business men of Chicago must decide for themselves which plan they will follow to make their currency good ; that policy put forth by your lending Republi can journal, of contraction, with its ruinous consequences, or that boned upon a wine administration of public affairs. You cannot afford to decide this question in a way to gratify merely your pannionn and your prejudices aguiunt men. It in one that comes home to you all in your business affairs. Your decis ion will affect no leas than it will your solves ; bat I invoke you, as a duty duo to your State and country, that you WO calmly review the action and omissions of the Republican party, and then say, if you can, that its policy has been marked by wisdom and foresight, and careful scrutiny of all tho great business and social interests of the American people. Mr. Seymour concluded by rolling for three cheers for the whole country, three cheers for the Union, and three cheers for our soldiern and eullors, all of which were heartily given. Ore/nn, En., Fired D 7 Negreen •--I wo Nqinare. Laid In /Wien. Some two weeks since, a negro named Sandy Packer, a slave formerly belonging to ldr. P. V. Labarre, made a political !Teeth at Gretna. At that speech, which was filled with menaces, Packer stated that the only way for the Ruthenia to hope to succeed In currying the election by the bal lot-box was to apply the torch. We do nut know how close may be the connection be tween this infamous threat and the fire that took place at Gretna yesterday morning. We report the menace of Packer, and allow our readers to form their own Judgement. Saturday morning, at about one o'clock, Lady who happened to .be up, .w from her window, a negro with a lighted torch in his hand, standing on the roof of an unoccupied house. She gave the alarm, but no one re sponded at the time. About half an hour alter this the alarm of fire was given by the ringing of the bells of the fire companies of Gretna and of the ferry boat. The citizens, on rushing to the spot, found two houses burning. I , rom the brief space of time which had intervened from the first Marin, it was supposed that the houses had been saturated with oil or some other combusti ble material. Although every exertion was made, and a reinforcement of Jefferson Fire Company No. 22, and two companies from Algiers, had reached the spot, all efforts were unavailing, and the flames rim from house to house through tWo block:eon each side of the street. The enflame called upon the negroes to assist In removing the furni ture. Some of them refused, but they were compelled by the citizens to work. The houses burnt were on First street, In the principal part of town. Beginning.= First Street, the flames ran down Lafayette Ave nue. Out of the entire two squares but two houses were saved. The value of the property destroyed Is estimated at about V 5,000. It is calculated that tho popular voto at tho forthcoming Presidential election will approach 5,000,000. Louisiana tactics are transferred to Oblo.
