A HIT OP HISTORY.
We last week gave a shOit but
true history of the manner in which
our heavy State debt was ineturd,
during several of the earlier admin
istrations, and we propose, now to
continue the subjeepinaking an i on
est comparison betiveen denioetratie
and; republican - rule:
FlANcrs R. -Sutt - st, democrat, as
chose 'l n governor in 1845. 'lle i
op
posed the payment of interest! l on
the State debt, but a majority of;the
Legislature being of opposit politics,
secured the oi-Uperntion Of owl', igh
.of, the democrats to force the y
ruent,'-and we are proud tosay it, has
never been omitted since. On' I the
deuth.of Gov. Suusi., Wm. F. tj?H*
SI`ON, speaker of the Senate, became
governor by virtue of his position,
and was afterward elected for allfull
;
teirrh. lie was a whig and a liberal,
minded man., As a member of ; the
Senatohe had been active in proem ,
ing l the passage of an act to author
ize; the issue of a large 'amount o re
lid notes, of the denominatio •of
QIIC, two antlthree dollars, and -
ing them .receivable in the pa .!etit
of taxes and for tolls.. Al we t' the
bill Wngi vetoed by Gov. Po -.;
enonLila democrats, with the whip!,
were found willing to disgrace them
selves in the eyes of the leader' of
their party, to aid the opPositiott in
wising it over theveto,for the sake of
ieliOing the oppressed people. The
1
ineastire proved what it purported. to
be, a relief to the people of - Penniryl ,
vans And no ono ever lost a dol.
Inr by the depreciation of the money.
At- I the close of Gov. Jonas - 81.17'0
term Wm.! ituozza was chosen. 13E94
A utrqug democrat, the public wUrkii
- agiiini fell into the hands of corrupt
nice, i wlibse plunderings were t ;so
glaring and outrageous that the Rub
ric-. iii4ld became greatly acrouaed.
.p wag ; noticed that although fgrti
two millions had beeir expendal illi
the public works, and pricte..lY lor-
tutus tUIIIIIKXI by contractors of the
formes' class, no contract had ever
been given outside of that political
party. So bold and unblushing
the plunderers 'of the public works
become, that; in 1845 Jags Poised'
whig, was elected by a majority
40,000 over Matra who was nomi
nated for a second term.
Gov. Poi.r;ocs was a wise and is
gitilkitis Corinna* and as means of
savingthe State ibilisthing mitt of the
vast. Oldie.* made on the public
IvOrks t ,_ rec ommended the sale of the
Mali lice, and the legislature passed
a - lair - - authOrizirq s r. the sate. - Toe
question was submitted - to thit ;peo
ple, who decided In favor of the ad
by a large inzAoritY. The works were
iold for nineimillions to the Pennsyl
vania Railroad Company. Gov.,
Locx was not . a
eandidatefor - re- - elea;
Lion, and ilatired from office, with
the highest emomiuns of all parties.
Gov. Por..ocic was succeeded • by
Wm. F. Pacits, democrat. During
his administration the balance of the
public worlai were disposed of,when
they had jot - commenced to yield
some reveal* By proper manage
ment five millions of dollars might
have bees rellized - fer Om State; but
the works ware sold ,to A bankrupt
stitution for* the nominal sum of three
•
millions and a half, not a cent ..of
which was ever Paid •to -the . State.
Hovrmuch A. K. lifebunts made ire
are net advised.. After selling the
canals the company made a pretense
of letting thimdred miles of . road.
A decoy, line . I was run :through the
wilderness, and a letting advertised
in due form., Contractors who were
not initiated into its secrets,. strug
gled over the line and examined the
stakeii, while the knowing ones who
understood the game remained Com
fortably in the hotels of , Willianis
! port and LOck Haven, laughing at
the eredulity and folly of their lion
competitors. In a few days the
allotment was made to.limis Busse
ik Co. No one outside of the ring
ever knew who the company" was;
but suspicion pointed strongly to a
certain Senator wlio was last winter
elected as nreformer. It is needless
to say the !route . examined by tthe
contractors acting in good faith, was ,
not one to be, occupiei by the road
bed. The read was shortly after sold
to the P. ,!i• E. R. R. Co., and the
proceed& diTided satisfactorily. • In
addition to robbing the State of the
public works, the same party at
tempted to !negotiate $3,500,000 of
bonds which the legislature had au
thorized to endorse, but the charac
ter of the men composing the conipa-,
ny was such that even with the en
dorsement of the State, capitalists
would not invest in them. •
W. F. PACKER Waft the best demo
cratic Governor, and at fhe close of
his term the State ,delft was about
541,000,000,, which lies been reduced
during the last twelve, years nearly
one-half, notwithstanding the extra
ordinary expenses incurred during
the late war
ts there a sane man in the•: State
who desires to-see the administhition
of affairs again intrusted to thel dem
ocratic party ?
am. Even the World proclaims
its unwillingness to " submit the
financial policy of `the country to
Mr. GREELZY'S guidance." Its ;avoid
ance of this difficulty is by a plea that
the finances willbe committed to the
Bectetary of the Treasury—selected
by Mr. GREELEY, at the instance of
his counsellors—and so the fatal
difficulty will be bridged, But Wall
street, sympathizing with the World,
did not shoW its belief in the safety
valve when tit was supposed North
Carolina had been won by this
coalition; nor is there anywhere any
evidence that the most visonary of
these scheMes, whose possibility
alarms the lror/d, would not be car
ried out if possible. On the other
hand, we have assurance of sound
conservative management of the
finances, if ,Gutrr is re-elected, in
what he has already done and is
doing. There is no more important
issue at stake than this ; and if the
very supporters of one — candidate
question hie capacity to manage it
might, it is needless to go further
for a reason for dropping him.
NI. For the officti of Coroner,
which has been very much neglected
of late years, Mr. J. V. GEIGEII, of
Wysox township, is the nominee of
the Republican party. Mr. G. has
performed yeoman service •in the
party and the tmaaimity with-which
he was nominated is a just tributdto
his fidelity and his standing . in the
county. A proper discharge, of the
duties of the office requires more than
ordinary ability, and we can assure
the voters of the county that Mr. G.
will discharge the duties faithfully
and intelligently
Nita. The democratic party, smart
ing under the heavy Sand effective
blows received at the hands of J. M.
Sstris, are making a special point to
reduce his , majority. To this end
they (have induced } a professed
GILVIT man to enter the field against
him. This game is too bald to de
eming any one, and Mr. YpIING will
find s i fter election that he has not
only bten defeated, but liar all med
himself. to be made the tool of the
bitterent enemies of•the party he pro
lessen to cherish.
aft. No better ticket was ever pre
sented for .the suffrages of the people
of this c o unty than. the candidates
nowinated by the Republican party
this fall. The y. are all men of high
standing as citizens, and eminently
q ualified for the 1 positions which they
have been select ed to -till. Every Re
publican who lioneAly desires the
=CMOS of ou r p ► inciplea and the
election of Republic, Ws will vote the
full ticket.

atroy our government during
rebellion, Aid no more than our fore
fathers did during the revolution. A
greater falsehood or a viler Slander
hoiiiti scarcely be uttered. The pat
riots of revolution. had no gov
ernor to destroy. They had no
To' eor rote in any government on
earth. For crinici, Or alleged — ciliiii;
they were sent' hreeturatuuld mdse for trial. " 'And their great striore
iris an attempt to, form a Omni
malt, not to destroy one. They were
a baud of heroes, as honest, virtuous,
noble and brave, as'ever met on einili,
and they succeeded in 'forming a
goiernrunt that all good men ad
mired, and they pledged their lives;
their fortunes, and their sacred hon
or, to support it: An the people of
the United'Statee profess to love this
government ; they also profess to ,
love the emblem et out liberty, the
flag of our oountry. .
,
And no doubt all the loyal men of
the United States were sincere . in
their attachment to our constitution i
Ind our flag. And they nobly fol-.'
lowed the advise of our fore fathers to
sacrifice their lives and their fortunes
in its defense. It is humiliating to
have to acknowledge that a oansid
erable band of desperate men who
had professed to love our govern-J
went, turned traitors and their first
war'was on the flag of the Union.
That work of the patriots that they;
profess to love and respect, was the
first thing, animate or inanimate, on
which they showed their rage. They I
tore down that flag and traimPeled it
in the dirt, to shOw their ' bitter con
tempt of
_the- work of thel patriots.
During &Democratic administration
of the United States, this flag was
torn down and the rebel flag run up
in its place ; whore ever they had the
power they degraded the emblem of
our liberty. It is certainly a proper
question to ask whether these people
ever did love the flag or not ?
GREELEY, and other traitors had
the audacity to say that those wretch
es were doing al our forefathers did.
We must say that such a comparison
is like comparing the blackest fiends
of perdition with the brightest An
gels of light. ~
Again HonAcE G IaLLEY tells us
that he has been contending for .a
great length of time, that ten mill
ions of people had no right to keep
five millions under subjection, and
he therefore argued that ten millions
of whites{ have no right to keep five
millions of blacks in bondage ; there
fore twenty`millions of free men have
no right to hold ten millions of free
men , under government. But, he
says, let them go in :Team ; here,
Hones places himself in a critical
condition. Let them 'go in peace and
take their five millions of blacks
with them. He surely did not
ex
pect these men who had . made war
on the country, would go out of the
Union without taking their blacks
with them. He would make no war
on them to stop them from going, he
was Willing to give up the labors of
his lift that be had so long insisted
on.
The traitors made war on the
country to. strengthen and perpetu
ate slavery, and errect an immense
slave empire, and Hoar►cz GICEELEY
said, let them go in peace. They
formed a confederacy of states with
the constitution, prohibiting the ad
mission of any but slave Status into
that confederacy, and HORACE. GREE
LEY said, very Well.
Was there ever such a budget of.
blunders? A man warring all his
life against - slavery, and bowing down
submissively all at once to a great
slave (!ortiederacy. He - left his five
millions of negioes at the mercy of
his ten million of slave holders to
enable his ten millions of slave hold
ers to keep clear of any control
from twenty millions of men opposed
to slavery.
Bat we ask the attention of onr
readers, and the advocates of States
rights to the fact that the State right
doctrine did not last one year in the
government of.the confederacy. The
people of North Carolina and Geor
gia soon became tired of the confed
eracy, and began to talk of seceeding
from it, brit the c,onhxlerato govern
ment jsoon let them know that if they
attempted such a thing the gallows
would be their doom. Well would
it haVe been for the United States
if President, JACKSON had have par
sued that (ionise with JOHN C. CAL
sou and his followers iu 1832. If the
old General had carried out
his own views with the South Caro
lina nullifiers, we would have been
saved the misery of the late war, and
the disgrace of having such a miser
able creature as Honer GBEZLLY
preaching np States rights, - treason
and Recession.

GRANT'S.P . OETBArr, BY DOUGLASS.
In a speech delivered in Bangor,
Maine, Aug. 21, FREI/El/ICE Docm..thz
spoke of Gruirr in the following em
phatic manner :
I can say of President Grant, this, that I
know of no great public man in this country.
and I Imre come in contact with the highest

other colored man in the United States, in

is a good man. If I over met a good, honest,
true man, it is in the person of Ulysdes S.
Grant. [Applause). Ho respects. the r.vlits. of
the black race, ebpecially so bet:sate their rights
are menaced. He does not low the black man
any more than ordinary men do ; but be had a
keen sense of justice, a keen fooling of fatherly
protection and care. Ho is a . man of ;but few
words, but those few tell me that under his
wing, more than under the wing of Greeley, or
any other candidate that the Democrats will
support, will the colored man be safe.

were in the States Nvhitii went iuL►
the rebellion 763, 867 farms. In IH
-70 the number had incacased tc,
032, 210. Does this shiw
that the sourthern States have been
ground under the heel of opreasion ?
Does agriculture flourish uniler
despotism such as the (-Inspit.-; or
gans and orators would have us he
hove has been exercised owl' the
south since the close of the war?
.What better proof is needed of the
beneficent legislation of the Repulh
can party and the executive admin
istration of the. laws than this simple
and undeniable fact that the south
is more prosperous in its agriculttf
ralptulsntes that it ever was before?
The same holds good as to its manu
factures, which have also largely in
caeased. Four years more of a Re
publican administration will see the
effects of the war almost wholly oblit
erated in the peace and prosperity
which must. inevitably follow.
Ity fir . Youxa denies that he was
in consultation with democrats on
Wednesday evening, as charged in
the ItzeoirrEn last week. We were
informed on good authority, that he
was. And we are sure that he will
not deny being in consultation with
some democrats at the foot of the
stairs leading to the Gar.rizr dab
room, on Thursday evening of that
week. Neither will he dispute telling
Jorntsos WELLES on Wednesday eve
ning, that he had promised to give
certain parties an answer, as ti,
whether he would be a candidate or
not, on Thursday.

that in majority counties the Demo—

It certainly is the same Gr.ortoE LAN
