Thursday Morning, November 6, 1879.
MR. HAYES has issued a proclama
tion appointing November 27 as a day
of thanksgiving and prayer? All
right. It is to be hoped he will ob
serve the day in fervent prayer to be
forgiven for one great crime, at least.
OF the seven candidates voted for
on the State ticket by the Ohio Repub
licans Hickenlooper, for Lieutenant-
Governor, received the smallest vote.
He happened to be a Union soldier.
Of the seven candidates voted for on
the State ticket by the Ohio Demo
crats Ewing and Rice received the
largest vote. They happened to lie
Union soldiers. Somehow or other,
says the New York World, these two
facts don't seem to lienr out the theo
ries of our esteemed Republican con
temjiornries concerning the overpow
ering love of the Republicans for the
Union soldier and the unquenchable
animosity of the Democrats towards
him.
THE Radical party, encouraged by
the patieuce with which the people
submitted to the great crime commit
ted iu the counting out of the legal
> Iv elected President of the United
Spates iu 187t, now fancy that they
will submit to have their States blot
ted out, and their Constitutional right*
transfer ml to a centralized despotism
at Washington. Rut that party had
better not count too strongly UJKJU pub
lic jiatience. It is "the last straw that
breaks the camel's back," aud the stal
warts will do well to heed the signs,
liefore pressing too far their efforts to
abrogate State lines and place the re
served rights of the States and of the
jH-ople in the keeping and at the mercy
of a centralized power, whether that
power lie the result of fraud, or the
creature of eircuinstance*. The Amer
ican people, when brought to realize
the fact that a great party in this coun
try, encouraged by the immunity giv-
CRI to fraud in one instance, lias the
audacity to proclaim its determination
to ignore the Constitution and its re
servations in favor of the States and
the people, will uot be iu teni|>er
to view such wrong with complacency.
Patience will give way to overwhelm
ing wrath that will grind the usurp
ing jiarty to powder. The Constitu
tion fixes certain lines of demarcation
for the General and State Govern
ments, beyond which neither can |>ass
without crime, and the Republicans
may not hope to pass these lines with
impunity. That we do not misinter
pret the motives of the Republican
leaders, it is only necessary to rend
the platforms they have given to the
public, the speeches of their statesmen
' and politicians, and the articles of the
press when occasion calls for remark
011 the subject of state rights. They
can have but one tendency—centrali
ration of power in a strong overshad
owing Government nt Washington,
antagonizing local self governments.
This is so apparent that it cannot es
cape public attention, for their argu
ments are not delivered in mild or
concealed terms, but are openly and
boldly avowed, with a view to divide
the country by geographical political
t lines to weaken the force of opposition.
We have abiding faith that there yet
remains enough patriotism" in the
country to save oar institutions from
the danger which menaces them, that
popular indignation will yet assert it
selfin sufficient time nnd with sufficient
energy to arrest the bold work of de
stroying the form of Government, as
our fathers gave it to us. Hut these
destructive tendencies of the Radicals
must be met and rebuked in the same
spirit which inspired Jefferson to com
bat the same idea of strong govern
ment presented and urged by the Fed
eralists of old,
"Xqt/AL AND EXACT JUSTICE TO ALL MEN, OV WHATEVER STATE H I'ERHt ANION, HZLIOIOUN OH I'OI.ITK'A 1.. "-J. (T.r-.u
No Timo for Sectionalism.
Evidence accumulates day by day
that it is the deliberate and determined
purpose of the stalwart leaders of the
Kcpublicnn pnrty to force the politi
cal issues of IKBO into the old and dis
gusting rut of sectionalism and lnitrecl
of the South. They painfully realize
that it is only by funning into a fresh
Hume the dying embers of the fires of
passion and prejudice that burned so
fiercely during a calamitous and un
happy period of civil war that they
have the slightest hojsj of extending
their present lease of ill-gotten power.
To these fomentors of hate and dis
union, the majority of whom did so
little when a real exigency of danger
menaced the government, the patriot
ic and sublime sjiectacle of the Union
restored, the .States again in harmony
with each other, and the people of all
sections of the country ouce more
dwelling together in peace and frater
nity, has but few attractions. They
well know that their future success as
jtolitical leaders and teachers depends
upon an entirely different condition of
affairs, and they will not falter for a
single moment in their efforts to bring
it about. For this, there must be a
solid North to offset a South made
solid only in a desire for home rule
and freedom from Federal interference
in borne concerns. For this, the sense
less cries of a new rebellion ami the
domination of the Confederate briga
diers are dinned into Northern ears
with continuous iteration and re-itera
tion in every variety of change that
eau be rung from them. For this, the
stalwart press daily groans with base
and malicious libels upon the people
of the South. For this, Blaine,
Brewster, Conkling, Sherman and a
hundred other stalwarts of like courage
and mendacity send forth their brutal
anathemas of hate, their malignant
sophistries, and their shameless jx-r
--versions of every day facts and occur
rences that (HTtain to one section of
the country —all tending to one end :
The success of the Republican |arty
in IHBO.
Will the end desired by these mar
plots and demagogues who control the
Republican organization be reached
by an issue of sectionalism such as
wc have pointed out ? We think not.
Surely, if ever there was a time for
such an issue it is not now, nor will it
he next year. That Fnion, Harmony
and Fraternity are at all timed lietter
for the happiness and prosperity of
the people no intelligent and unbiased
|erson will deny.
And this calls to mind at least one
|M>tent reason why the sober, second
thought, when it conies, will not give
success to any political party that hopes
to grasp it through the divisions, dis
sent ions and hatreds that come of aee
tional agitations. The material inter
ests of the county will not permit it.
After a long and dreary period of
gloom, depression nnd embarrassment
in all our business and industrial pur
suits, we are beginniug to rejoice in
the blessed fact of a dawning prosper
ity, and with it a bright and hopeful
outlook for the future. In the great
centres of trade and commerce we
have beheld a striking transformation
from inertness to activity. Business
seems to lie thriving everywhere.
Great manufacturing and producing
industries, for years either dormant
or dragging along a sickly existence in
the general stagnation of the times, are
again stirring with new life and energy.
Labor is in active demand and com
mands higher wages. Employers and
employes are 011 Ix-tler terms with each
other, hoping to reap a mutual benefit
in their improved prospects. These
manifestations of a better condition of
business are to be felt and seen at every
hand. Are they the mere fits and starts
of transitory and illusive causes that
will pass away in an unexpected mo
ment, or arc they the real and tangible
signs of a permanent and strong busi
ness revival. 7 Which will tend most to
ward permanency and strength —peace

litical and racial intercourse free,
friendly and unrestrained throughout
all sections of the country, or a new
crusade of sectionalism with its ac
companying evils of discord and dis
content ? Which will give greater se
curity and confidence 7 But oue sen
sible answer can be given to these ques
tions. The time therefore for sectional
ism has past away; and under these
circumstances xnd surroundings will
not the inquiring, conservative and
patriotic good sense of the |>eople dc
nuAid that such an issue IK; 110 longer
a factor in a great Presidential elec
tion? And will not the {xditical party
which insists otherwise receive a signal
and lasting rebuke?

The alxive are the official returns of
Centre county lacking Curtin town
ship, which will probably increase the
Democratic majority from ten to
fifteen.
MR. HAY E* wants Gen. Grant to ix--
come his guest, on his Arrival at
Washington, and has sent a formal in
vitation to that effect. Will Grant
accept? A visit to the White House
will no doubt suggest to him some
pleasant memories. It has l>on the
resilience of the best and greatest of
American statesmen, nil placed there
by the Americnn people, but—well,
the invitation was signed by the wrong
fellow.
THE official returns of the Ohio
election show a majority of 17,129 for
Foster over Kwiug, and a majority
for Foater over all of 3,8*>5. The
Grecnlmck candidate received 9,129
votes and the Prohibitionist 4,145.
The majority for Gen, Hickenlooper
(Rep.) over Gen. Rice (Hem.) is 15,-
978. The total vote for Governor waa
998,(107,
The Elections.
111 Pennsylvania the Republicans
have elected Samuel Butler, Republi
can, State Treasurer over Daniel <).
Harr, the Democratic candidate, by a
large majority—not less than .V>,o<Ml,
and it may reach 40,000. This large
majority is not duo to any increase in
the Republican vote. It may le at
tributed almost entirely to the apathy
and indifference of Democrats who
could not IHJ induced to go to the jsills
on lost Tuesday. In this county, the
Democratic plurality over Butler is
over 900. Had the Democrats (Killed
the vote they gave Mr. Dill, which was
under the full Democratic vote, Mr.
Barr would have two thousand over
Butler iu the county. In the county
about a two-thirds vote was {Milled.
In New York, the Kelly lolt has
resulted iu the election of Cornell, Re
publican, over Lucius Robinson, the
present ( iovernor of the State ami the
Democratic candidate for re-election.
Cornell's plurality is variously esti
mated at from 20, 1 IKK) to SO;000. There
is no doubt that Hon. Ularkson I'otter
1 the Democratic candidate for Lieu
tenant (iovernor and the balance of
the Democratic State ticket have been
j handsomely elected. There was no
division in the Democratic party ex
cept upon (iovernor, ami the result
shows that New York is still really
Democratic ami may be counted upon
ascertain to vote for the Democratic
candidate for President next year.
Maryland stands in the Democratic
1 column with old time firmness. For
Governor, Wm. T. Hamilton, Ih-mo
-1 crat, wa* elected by the usual Demo
cratic majority and with him the en
tire State ticket.
In Ma— achusotlN, Gen, lien j. F.
Butler is again defeated for (iovernor
by John I>. Lmg, the Republican
nominee by a plurality intimated at
15,000.
Wisconsin elects a Republican (iov
ernor, a dm* Minnesota. and Ne
braska a Republican Judge; of the
Supreme Court. New Jersey and
Connecticut elected State legislatures
and the results in Inith are favorable
to the Republicans.
From the Southern State* that
voted on Tuesday the returns are very
meagre. 111 Virginia the election
turned upon the question of the State
j debt ami it is sup|>oscd that the party
i favorable to what is known as the Mc
-1 Cu I lough compromise have triumphed
; over the other party called the ro-ad-,
jjusterw, or rather the rcpudiators
. From Mississippi we have but slight
returns. It is supposed the State lias
gone Democratic. The election was
exceedingly quiet nnd orderly.

During a maas meeting of the Oreen
back Labor party at Scranton, Saturday
night, a runaway horse, which had be
come detached from a street ear, daahed
into the crowd, when a miner name
Brian Judge was knocked down and
killed. The crowd became very much
excited over the event, and were eo
lhrealing toward the driver of the car
that be was locked up in the station
house for protection.
Another of those remarkable stories
comes from Pike county. This time a
Miss Clara Hendershot, who lives near
Shohola, is the heroine. While rowing
in her boat she met a deer, a big fellow,
swimming leisurely along, so that she !
might overtake him. She fiitd and i
wounded him slightly. The animal j
made for the boat, and the girl lunged a
big knife in hia throat and came off vic
torious.
An old gray-headed woman was
arrested in Philadelphia laat week for
stealing $375. She put the money in
her mouth and for several hours resist

out. As she was so old they didn't
want to hurt her and sha went to jail
with the money still there. Poverty
was the cause or the crime.

with the lion C. T. Alexander and D. F.

at the dinner the counsel, who won for the
defense their splendid triumph. Mr. Me-
A leer and Goo. M Brisbin, Ksq, ledh de
fendant* in the suit, managed the dinner
and received the guests. Robert Lawshe,
was called to the chair, after the guest* had
done ample just We to the really incoroj.ar
able dinner served by that prince of genial
hosts, Fred Ke*e of the Arlington House,
and immediately the important business
of the evening began. Hon. R. Bruce
Petrikin, of Huntingdon, and Thomas 11.
Fisher, K*q., brother of the Congressman
from the Huntingdon district, occupied, in
connection with Harry M Ateer, George
M. Brisbin, Harrv Hartman and ex-Sheriff

Win. A. Tobias and J. C. Harper, two of
our county officials, together with Joseph
Morgan, recorder of Clearfield county,
George 11. Zeigler, of l'hilipsburg, and
others, occupied another. Ik>n St. George
Frazier, Houtzdah-'s only editor, with
John K White, of Oteeula, and George
II Barrett, Jr., of Beliefonte, not to men
tion Charley McCauley, managed to fill
another table. Alt-gether there were sev
enty-two person* sitting at one time at the
various tabbw in the two tastefully dec
orated rooms prepared for the occasion.
Mr. Rmae deserves great credit for the
j handsome manner in which be entertained
the guest, of the evening. Mr. Lawshe,
j the chairman, called the assemblage to
I order at precisely twelve o'clock. The
baton, wielded by the chairman, was an
empty wine bottle. A* oon as order was
j established, Bruce i'etrikin arose, and in a
felicitous *j<e*ch toasted "the counsel for
the defense, and called on our popular
fellow-townsman, Hon. C. T Alexander,
to respond Without exaggeration, Mr.
Alexander made one of the most eloquent
• speeches it was ever our good fortune to
j hear. At the conclusion of hi* remark*,
Mr. Petrikin once more arose and offered
j a l'*st to "the Uouls. heir*," and asked for
- a response from George M Brisbin, Esq.

property were at stake, he said, and it was
not to glory over the defeat of the plain
