CATINOCTIAI,7 THE SILVER QUESTION. The advocates of a silver standard seem to think that Withaeap - nicirrey there - Will be no trouble in the debt , or class extricating themselves. The ciperience of history does not war rant such a conclusion ; neither does criclr l'easoning comport o with,strict integrity.

The President's Message was sent to Congress on Tuesday.'

When I . the Wh ig , or Republican party con trolled Congress, American labor al ways prospered, because it was prop erly protected. ~The statistical his tory of the country proves this state ment. ' What, then, is the duty of workingmen? _ls it to go into inslep-, endent organization, ,whe' re' they can effect little, if anything, to _ further their interest, or to remain in the ranks of the Republican organiza tion and sustain its 'Platt / oral and candidates pledged to the,support of every principle afia policy calculat ed 'to ' insure their prosperity ? It will not require long reflection to decide such. - .a question., There never was a time before *hen, as now the interests of workingmen were so closely bound up in the result of an election. If the. Republican par ty wins, they'win—if .it loses, they lose. This is just as sure as that the• sun shinea to vivify' and , fructify. . Chna. Co. coce Cor.. FORNET has sold his Press to E.

The .new publisher, in his card to the public, says the Press will be conducted as a , thoroughly independ etif journal ; that there ia.not a dollar of political, corporate or ecclesiasti cal control' in the entire . ownership ; that the position of the editor cannot be swerved by fear or favor, and that' it is his intention to 'strengthen , the paper in every department, to pusii vigorously-its interests and develop ment. Col.:Fon:4El . goes to Europe where he will act as correspondent of the Press, and will visit the Paris Exposition in that capacity.- Tux historypf ;the two political partieS in this State is brief and concise. Under democratic adminis tration, every ,year the State • debt was increased: 3 -1 , - ~UnderLßepUblican rule tax on real estate has been abolished, and yet•our debt his decreased nearly- two thirds.

REmtmnan! that after sixteen Fears, of Republican administration the debt has been reduced to about $14,000p00. Th6se facts speak most eloquently for the 'integrity oil Be, publican nfficials, and the wisdom of Republican principles and mess' urea. 13 4 5TliCNQYE6 and Scusitt.,.

Tlutt or ganization which bad so repeatedly .ground a soft Democracy like pow der beneath itti. feet,---that had • puts down domestic insurrecalon, sustain ed the national power—was to be divided this fall, driven asunder and torn into angry factions, alt to please the Democracy. But the orgattiza-_, tion won't divide. There_ - is too much genuine cohesion in it; the principles which it sustains are too full of vitalizing force, and the ob. pet, it hat .in view too honorable and essential to national life and pros perity... For" these. romona the Re publicati: party of thelceystone State is as lirni\ast... the arch- iihitih it typ ically lock f. Under no circumstances will it=afford\its opponents an oppor tunity-to steal \ a victory.. There is not anything within or without the State that t.ri affect the harmony or the energy or this irganization. It won't divide;that's certain., It never presents a ragged edge in a battle array. We therefore deEiire the De mocracy to look elsewherp for schisms. POSTMASTER, Generhl.

How many lost their livea,is not known, as the:lndians had buried their dead while the attack 'was going on. Af-, ter the surrender, Gen.

MILES, and the brave men •under his command. ' . THE Prohibitionists 'under the lead of 0. J. enveuum, are making a canvass of the county, and a' series of meetings are advertised. Colonel S3.IITR, who is a recent. convert-to the - cause, addressed- one, of these• meetings at East Smithfield; on Sat urday evening last, and what is most singular - did-not know he was speak ing under the auspices' of the Pro hibtions party. The meeting was organizO by ealling the kcpubliaan ounilidatkor, county surveyor, T. A.

So he bad windows fitted with blue glass for onverts to the doctrine, and he has reason to believe that in several cas es there were .most salutary results. Ile is careful to sly, however, that he feels imbued to attribute this improvement In the condition of the patientit to the influence of the mind rather than of the glass.

They believed that President Polk, in pressing the claims Oe` our citizens onehe government of Mexico` in a threatenineand offensive manner, in tended to force her into 0 war in order te despoil-her of part of her territory, - but when the war actually commenced the Whigs to a man, stood by their country's flag and helped to bear e it in triumph to \ the halls of the Montezuma & 1\ At the beginning of the alavebolder's e rebellion, the Democratic : patty Was'unan imously opposed -to coercive measure& but, when the rebels made waren the goy ' ernmeet, such Democrats'as Dirt, Butler, and Logan, drew their swords in defense teethe nation,, and together with thous ands of patriotic Democrats who caitied the musket, stood valiantly- by their country's flag. Their conduct is the metre praiseworthy being in such strikieg e coke, trast with the conduct of Seymour , Val.e landinghatn, and Tilden, who plad all the obstacle', in the way of a successful presecution of the war which they dared. Patriotism was the ark of safety. , The Union was preserved, and only preserved because a majority of the people stood by the flag. If there are good reasons why,' in time of war 'we should stied by' •our , iOutetryls 'flag, there are good reasons wheem times of political peril, we should stand by our party's flag. The national banner represents the nation and its insti tutions, the political banner' represents the party and its principles. In all free governments political parties are a neces sity: . Popular governments must be ad ministered by-the popular party, and a government is powerless that has not a powerful-party at its back. The history of our own, and all other countries where the people vote, shows that the govern ment will alivays be administered by one or the other of the two great, parties which, by the constant watchfulness of its antagonist, if not ream its own sense of justice and love of lebeesty, will in gener al be kept from great errors of adminis- . tration, or prodigality in the public ex penditures. - The third and fourth parties which free quently spring up are usually composed of stragglers from the first two, men with one prominent idea, et men who arc so desirous of being leaders that they . care but little here senall a baud they lead. Like guerrillasen war they may harr.'es their enemies, but they never accomplish any great results. There are no ptesent indications that a new party is coming,in to the field, which will be able to thrust the old parties aside. Either the Reputi- lican,.or the Democratic party will cOn trol the government in 1880. Which sbal it he? . The Republican party is not so !limn°. nious as could fie wished. Many believe that the President's S'outhern policy is the fulfillment of a bargain made ,with which John Young Brown avid - other Southern . leaders, by which the counting of the vote was completed and the Presidency secur ed for Hayes. Others think that the giv r , ing up of two Republican States to a mob of armed Democrats has, destroyed the Republican party in the South, and made it very diftictilt if not utterly impos sible ever, to .elect another Republicau \ resident.. They fear he has uticonscions- I entered the same path once trod Uv Jo 0 Tyler and Andrew Johnson, which, liewever it may deviate, ends at lasWii ?Is the D ocratic camp.

We lMve forgiven you, and retair d all the political rights which you forfeit. ed, and God will forgive you when you bring forth fruits meet for repentancc.V There are also those who believe that the President's civil •serviee reform has re , formed a good manypoliticians from Ohio ' into federal, offices, and will eventually turn out of office every friend of Roscoe Conkling in New York, And replace them • with the friends. of 3fr: Evarts. ngdom any teri They consider his civil service . order a tyrannical exercise of executive power, an unjustifiable interference .with political freedom and private • rights, only to be tolerated under despotic governments. They believe that the -citizen surrenders nonei,of his political nights When he ac cepts office, and that se long as he per forms his official duties faithfully,' the PfEsident, has no'more business to preventt! hiin from acting as the. chairman of a I committee or making. a political speech, than he has to prevent, him from whiSper- ing to his wife. They fear that the Pres- . 1 Went is determined to force his 'policy on', the party or destroy it. Their fears may be groundless, their opinions erroneous, and their utterances impolitic and unwise. We are not now, saying that these, Repub licans who constitute - the great body of the party are right and. the President wrong, ' , ,sve are simply stating the fact that there are divisons in the party as there were divisions- in the early Christian Church, but- they are differences Which shoUld not divide, they are differences of opinion which should not separate &roads, and it is the duty of all good Republicans to exercise an enlarged Christian charity and Labor for the restoration of harmony. One should not say, I ain for -Hayes, an ether, I am for Blaine, and another that I :Mr for Conkling, but all should say we are iiir,the Republican party. We believe in its we glory in its history. and we -will stand by its flag l The party whose creed contains the equal rights of all Med, the universal brotherhood, the elevation ofthe human race,' is clothed with immortality and will never die until it puts off its sacred. vestments by the abandonment of its principleg. • The-Republican 'party stood up` forthe rights of man When the Democratic party stood for the rights of \ property in man. It stood by the nation's flag when the Democratic patty, as a\party, faltered. It gave the colored laborers-the right to their labor,. and will never Permit. white laborers to be trampled into the dust by soulless corporations. It is the, genuine green-back party, It gave us-the,-green -back currency, and by wise legislation which preserised the public has made it nearly equal in Value to gold,'and more valeable than silver. It is the_par ty of temperance, of progress, of tion„and moral reform; it is full olvitab. ty, and will have ktriumPhant future be cause Republicans love it.kand when dan ger threatens will forget their differences of opinion and stand by it. TriE effOrt to Bemire votes, for the Prohibition ticket, is., looked upon by intelligent voters as an attempt to akHn the election of a Democratic District Attorney.

And thus l j abor and . capital will find full employment. - * To those of our fellow-citizer.s who' have been misled by false pretense and by ingenius sophistry, and who have wavered in their allegiance to the party- which has been the constant champion of American labor, we appeal for a critical judgruent of the insincerity of the professionik, of those, agitators in the Democritie party, who, claiming , to represent labor, have unifortrily betrayed it at the polls. In Ohio, as on former occasions, the 'only honest adhcreutiof the saealled issues " were drawn from the Ifepublican ranks., Deceived by false protestations arid betrayed by an insincere alliance they have not aided their own cause, but bare Itilaced the garlands of svictery at 'the feet of their worst enemies.s, The lesson of Ohio should teach the avoidance of so fa tat. a blunder in yenosylyania.
