A PROMINENT Republican politician
who has traversed the whole • state of
Maine, and carefully noted the drift of
public opinion, gives the following• as the
result of his observations • "We have
never had. suuli a campaign in our state.
Up to this time we have had more nieet
ings than we have ever had befoioini4ipe
entire campaign. We have three weeks
left, and we urAerstand perfectly well
that w'e have got to keep it up until elec
tion day. We shall elect the House and
Senate by la'rger majorities than last year.
Shall elect an entire 'Congressional Ade
-cation (a gain of twn) and our Governor
by not less than 7,600. Anything short
of this I shall be \ disappointed. In fact,
I think our majority may reach near 10,-
000."
THE Grange Picnic at Williams' Grove,
last week was a great success, thousands
of TarmCrs being present. On Friday
Gov. Him; was intrixluced and made a
abut'9)ceof, which was warmly respond
ed to by the audience. He was followed
by Col: PIOLETT, Master of the State
Grange, who heaAily encorsed what the
Governor said, and spoke at length on
matters-pertaining to agricultural leg,isin
tkm, freight discriminatimi, &c. About
fifteen states are represented by exhibitors
and visitors. These annual gatherings of
the farmers must be productive of much
good. 'They serve to give broader views
of the dignity o ftheir occupation, familiar
ity with discoveries and improvements,
which go to the advancement of the pros
perity of the farmer, and the concert of
action, which are necessary to properly
protect his interests.
SIIALL FBA n SUCCEED ?
If there could be a ." foll vote,'a
free ballot and a fair count," it is
admitted that thie success of the Re:
publican.candidates would 3c with
out 'question. Ent notwithstanding
the declaration of the DemOeratic .
candidate, his election to the Presi

- the bull-dozing of Republican voters,
and the exclusion of' their votes from

lemma should teach the people of the
North what is to he expected. Let
Chem look at the facts and ponder
well the consequences.
The Republican State Committee
of A labaina has gathered, the facts
relating to the late eleetiOn in that
State, and embodied them in a
lengthy and :ible address. giving
particulars and figures. It states,
chat. the .Republicans

'these outrages Were rdwarded with

patrolled by armed men on election
day. neg.roes shot and military
guards, in uniforths of gray, with,
bayonets, were stationed at the poll 7
ing places. Yet the Republicans
cast 96,0ti0 votes.
in . order that these 96,000 votes
might: not prove tot, great a (Linger,
the election laws were changed. All
safegua f rds were wiped out and the
l inspector was sirn S ply requested to

found, flowerer, that this law lid not

States courts, and Isla to . 'prev nt the
possibility of anyl voter ide tifying
J • or swearing to his ballot, a law was
passed (141aring that any mark or
device on a ballot should make it
pull and void! This wan done in
the interest of the secrecy of the
h:dlot! To get rid of Republican
ollicials already in office, a law was
passed requiring all bonds of .ullice
holders tq be secur_,ed within the
_
I
counts. The object of this was to
make 14 - 4.,7 : invalid and thus to Oust
the menTbents from office, and the
scheme was suceessful in many in
stances. As a result, thwbeitioer:acy

those selected by. Republicans to
represent them were ignored, and
others ignorant or. under Democratic
influence selected.
Some remarkable instances of
fraud are detailed in conneciion.with
the late
_. eleetion. .At McGiiee's
switch, Montgomery county, 672 k Re- -
publican votes were known to have
been cast. When the polls closed at
5 o'clock`. the Democrats 'refused to
proceed with the count. At 6 o'cliick
a military company arrived, imr
younded the building and - the count
proceeded. Soon .the light was ex
tinguished anil i the. box, filled with
tickets: On the Republipan inspec
tor remarking it. he was threatened
and forced to find safety outside.
When the count was completed there
were reported, 132 .Republican and
540 Democratic votes. At Kemball's
beat, '5l-1 Republican and 65 Demo
cratic votes , kere cast,
,yet in the
count the Republicans had but 46.
majority, and would not have' had so
mariy,bu for the decision of the Re
publican inspector. At Robinson
Cross . Roads 580 Republican votes
were`--cast to 50 Democratic votes.
The Democrat carried off the ballots
and the votes were not counted. The
same thing occurreCat Porter's beat.
At Old Elam .146 Republican - and 16
.
Democratic votes' , were cast, but,
these were not counted. These are
samples of systematic frauds prac
ticed throtialiout the entire State.
Alabama is .declarcd by the Re
publican State Committee to be.
Republican by 20,000 majority, yet
the Democrats claim the State by
1'5,000. And the 20,000 here referred
to are the llotes actually cast. They
do. not represent an unpolled vote,
but the actual ballots deposited in
the boxes in accordance with :the .
law, but thrown out or fraudulently
neutra*:ed by the Democratic in
spector . ft is, of 'course, nnfottu
nate that_4he Republicans allow
themselves to be thus swindled, but
to prevent it they must do •as the
Democracy have done—either resort
to violence or fraud: They are law
abiding citizens who wish to avoid
either form of evil.. Yet such are
the factS, and the question has grown
to be important whether, such things
are to be submitted to. The remedy,
however, is a solid North and, the
restoration of Republicans to power
in Congress.
THE COUNTY TICKET
The action of the Republican
'County Convention of last week was
such as to demonstrate the united
Wand cordial feeling which animates
the Republicans of the county.
`here there are so many aspirants
for the nominations there must of
course be some disappointments,.but
in the present instance all will con
cede that there was an entire absence
of those tricks and ways which sonic
thnes are practiced, and lead to dis
satisfaction and result in injury to
the party.. The selections made were
uncontrolled IV outride influences,
and may be properly, r taken as the
choice of the people, as expressed
through their representatives. We
take pleasure in chronicling this fact,
and in commending the ticket as be
ing tworthy of the support of the
people of the comity.
Judge Mointow has made-for him
self the reputation of being one of
the most careful, correct and able
Presiding Judge's in the State. The
position is not an easy one to fill
with satisfaction to the public and to
the numerous parties who come into
Court fully impressed with the entire
justice of their side of -the question.
But he ha's lOrne himself with great
dignity and propriety, carefully and
conscientiously passing upon the
matters presented-. for his considera
tion, giving decisions promptly and
with a correctness which will bear
comparison with those of an of- the
Judges of the State. Laborious in
his habits, he has. prevented the ac-
Cumulation and delay of business,
saving to,the taxpayers thereby much
of - expense and vexation. In the
prime of life, with matured intellect
and', the experience gained by one
term, he will be an ornament to the
Bench, anti the people of the county
may well congratulate -.;themselves
that they are to have-his services for
ten years longer.
The recommendation that Iton.
EnwAnn QvEnTos should again 'be
returned to Congress is a fitting tri
bute paid to a worthy representative.
Itis conceded that the importance
and value of the-services of 'a Con
gressman increase with each year's
pilfence in' the House, and that
the interests of the people are con
sulted by retaining capable and valu
able men. Mr. OVERTON has shOwn
his reliability and value during the
two terms he has served. his votes
anti his labors meet the apprObation
of :his constituents, and it would be
the, part of wisdom to to-elect him.
We trust that the Republicans of the
other counties of the district will see
and aeknoWledge the propriety of
this, and cheerfully acquiesce in his
nomination*
The unaiiimons re-nomination of
WILLIAM T. DAviEs as State Senator
was clue to the reputation made by
-him in the term which he has alr d
served. Not only has his votes been
always right, but he has taken the
front rank with the able and active
members of that body. He has in
dustribusly and faithfully watched
the interests 'of his constituents, and
on
hestly nnd consistently, protected
the interests of the •pominonwealth.
As chairman ofl the Judiciary Com
mittee, he was in an• important and
responsible pos l ition, acquitting him
self with , credit.'- His re-election will
secure to th people a faithful and

•
The Legislative ticket is iiartim
larly worthy of commendation 'and
support. Indeed, , from the names
presented to and voted for by the
Convention, it would, have een'int
possible to make' any mistake. Mr.
'Mama has represented this county
in previous Legislatures. His record
is without a stain. t, He was on all
occasions the especial advocate of
t
economy and of all m asnres to pro
tect the people and I.lieve the bur
deas of taxation. M r: Mims is a
young man of excellertt abilities, a
sound • Republican, of inflexible in
tegrity,,and will make his mark in
~the Legislature. Mr. TAYLOR is a
substantial and upright citizen of
intelligence and capacity; who will
have the good sense to diitinguish
what is Prop e r, and ,the courage and
honesty to carry out 4is convictions.
bt the nominees as a delegation, we
feel that we cannot speak too highly
in .conmending them to the consid
eration and support - of - the voters.
They are truly representative men—
men who understand the views and
desires of our people—who compre
hend ' their wants and will study' in
all things to promote the interests of
the people of Bradford. .
.The nominee kir District Attorney,
-Mr. FANNING, is, a young lawyer
whose talents and industry have
Marked him for distinction.' He is
from one of the moat respected fami
lies of Western t ßradford, which gave
him support frdm that section of the
county. He w•fll !conduct the busi
ness of the, office with credit to him
self and the entirefsatisfaction of the
Bench and the Bar.
For County Surveyor, Mr. SEWARD
was Je-nominated. Having held the
office for the .past three years, his re
election is a sufficient evidence that
he has discharged its duties properly
and satisfactorily.
Republicans of Bradford 1 you are
fortunate when in the midst of such
an important Presidential contest,
'that you have a county ticket against
,whiCh not a single objection can be
urged, either in the manner of its
making, nor the candidates placed
"•-k- - -c
upon it. ,
Now we don't think it is of much im
portance what WADE HAMPTON may say,
hut when he makes a speech full of 'Con
federate Democratic sentiments, ho has .
no right to " go back w on his utterances,
nor should his friends in the North be too
hasty in that be iiArathfully re
portedd nor ti:kir - qiiick. to Optidiate his
words. Hee' some time : ago delivered a
speech at Staunton, Virginia, and was re
ported as saying : "Consid#r what LEE and
.lACESON would_ do wero:they alive. These
are the same principles for which' they
fought for four years. ItemeMber the
men who poured forth their life blood on
Virginia soil, and do not abandon them
now. Remember that upon your vote
depends the- success of the Democratic
ticket." The Republican papers have very
naturally called the attention of loyal citi
zens to .these obnoxious utterances, as
showing that the rebel spirit was still
rampant in the "-Solid South" which is
to elect HANcocn if
.he ever becomes
President - The startling statement and
the treasonable argument made by 11Astr
t6d have attracted so much attention and
were calculated to be . , so damaging in
their effect that the Democratic papers at
onceilatly denied that they were eiiir
made, and the orator was appealect to to
deny them. tie finally yielded to the
pressure, and in an equivocal manner de
nied he had used such language. The
regular Democratic organ' reports the
speech substantially as given above, So
both the Staunton papers haVel, been
charged with making false reports. l " The
New York Tribune now Publishes the
following card from four prominent Dem
ocrats of Staunton :
We. the underslghned, heard the speech of Gen
eral Wade Hampton, delivered In Staunton, on the
:oth et July. We have also read the report pub
lished In the Valley Virginian on the 20th of
„July, and hereby certify that that report was sub
-Siena:4lly correct. ARCHIBALD G. STLAnr.

A. C. licatbox,

We do 'not attach much importance
however, either to the original statement,
nor to the proof that WADE:HAMPTON is
willing to shield the Democratic party
- from the odium of the sentiments which
are held by the Democrats of the South.
No man who cannot see that the Demo
cratic party if in power would be a mere
resurrection of the Confederate Govern
ment, controlled by the men who endeav
ored to destroy, the Union, would hesitate
to vote the Democratic ticket if LEE and
JACKSON were the nominees.
PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
PLIILADKLPLITA, August 00, 1880
The intense heat of the first days of
last week was , moderated by a - rain iitorm
Wednesday, which sent down the mercu
ly twenty-two degrees, and made it pos
sible to exist and move about. The storm
was not of long duration, but it was live
sly while it was going on. Serpo damage
, as done throughout the city, and quite
: panic created in the Permanent Exhibi
tion building, where the visitors were en
.j,
Ying a peiformance of Fatinitza. The
rrent driving in a northeasterly course,
a great many windoW panes on the south
ap l d west entl of the structure were blown
iif, and through openin;s thus made the
rain poured. ' Women wailed ;and chil
dren cried, and quite an excitement was
raised, bringing the performance to a
Summary conclusion. Nearly all the tin
covering of the west end of, the building
was torn up,, and the fence enclosing the
grounds on: the south side blown down. -
A portion of the roof of the Pennsylvania
State'bqlding was carried away. - .
Dr. Buchanan, who committed suicide
by jumping from a Camden ferry boat, it
seems is not drowned-after all. The wily
docter is at Windsor,. Canada, opposite
Detroit, and 'won't propose to come back,
although he is wanted' by his bondsmen.
The political pot is boiling at a furious
rate. Banners are hanging across nearly
" — very street, decorated with the likeness
of the Presidential 4ndidates, and an
nouncing in large leitiers their names.;
Every uigbt there are numerous meetings
with the usual acconip4nituents of music
and fireworks, and stiriing appeals to.the
voters. The Republicins seem to be the
Most enthusiastic, though some of the
Deirocratic gatherings are spirited, espe
cially where they- are held, as they are
usually, in the neighborhood of conveni
ent and friendly rum shops. By Novem
ber it will be red-hot. Look out for a
rousing Republican majority as the party
is thoroughly united, alive and active.

The Young lady did not appreciate , the

appear at another Court Jima Hymens.
He claimed that the girl had not treated
him right. If every fellow who felt that
way should resort to the same means of
redress, stale eggs would bring a greater
price than the newly laid ones.

visited by fire early Wednesday morning
and completely destroyed. The adjoin.

the efOrts of the firemen prevented a gen

When the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany puts its trains in motion „ upon the
elevated road along Filbert street, it will
offer such inducements to petsons who
wish to live in the siinurbs as can hardly
be-surpassed. The trains will run with
great rapidity, at - frequent intervals,
from the heart of the elfy out into the .
lovely country which spreads beyond tbo
Schuylkill for miles and which contains
tens of thou&sndiyief beautiful and health,

company intends to develop this region
in the future even more assiduously than
it has done in the past. New and hand
some stations, frequent trains, pheap
fares and rapid transit , grill tempt ',those
who have daily business in the city, but
who desire that their children shall

Some idea of the manner in which' the

Streets City Railway Line, who worked
from April 25, 1879, to August 15, 1880 7 -
'79 consecutive days—without losing._ a
single trip:during that time. He was
compelled finally, on the last namtiltdate,
to stop work owing to a ()oath in his fam
ily. This record sho - ws that out of the
11,496 hours which elapsed during this
period Mr. Kehoe was with his car 8,143
hours and consumed an °extra hour each
day going to and l irom work, so that ho
was away from his • home in all 8,622
hours, leaving six hours in each twenty
four for rest and recreation, or only 2,874
out of the whole• 11,496 hours for this
purpose. He concluded first to' stop . a
year without cessation, and accomplish
ing this concluded to finish five - hundred
days in the same way, but the death of a
son interrupted the task.:;',lfe is the fath
er of six children and has always enjoyed
excellent health.
z The first of the Herdic Transportation
(roaches made its appearance on tho street
Friday for the purpose of exhibiting it to
the public. Of course it attracted =flch
attention. It is not handsome to look at,
but it appears to be a handy and comfort
able vehicle, seating eight persons. Work
is being rapidly pushed forward on the
coaches, and by - the I.sth of, September
they will commence running on Broad
street. The fare is to be live cents, or ,
six tickets for a &Par. One good result.
will probably be the reduction of the

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON', D. C., August 27, ISSO
Instead of political speeches, torch-light
processions, rockets and Roman candles,
we are having-for this week in the way
of a change, circus and menagerie pa
rades with their usual accompaniment of
side show monstrosities, pea nut venders,
the" ice-cold lemonade" man, with his
"ginger snaps " notched all the-way round
and half the way back," auctioneers of
worthless jewelry, and other mount°,
banks of various character. Notwith
statidin the blazing heat which has so
suddenly come upoii us and the. broiling
condition that everyttting and everybody
just now are in, there has apparently
been no ditninuation in t the tuimbeisof pa
trots in the saw dustrena. In this re
spect, Washington city has no equal,
no matter as to what may be the condi
tion of the weather the heart 'of the cir
cus, man is ever made glad by the
great mas# that invariably crowd to
his canvass.
While it is believed that there is ample
grounds for the suspicions expressed as
to the accuracy of the census returns from,
many of the Southern States, and that,
in a majority of localities, they are as
fraudulent as Democratic majorities, the
prevailing opinion appears to be that it is
best to await) the full official statement
and trust to the Superintendent's version.
In the meanwhile, the work in the census
office is going ahead rapidly ; and each
division, with its atriall army of clerks, is
making active progress in the several
branches of the great undertaking. Huge
bags heavily laden with statistical returns
from enumerators and agents arrive at
the office daily, and so regularly that
there is but little delay in performing the
work at this end.
But the returns from States with refer
encel to populatio I , it is said, are back
ward. The recen Idemand. for a . re-ex
;
amination of certain portions of the South
necessitates an in estigatiou which it is
believed is now in progress, and which,
as a matter of course, will not aid much
in the early completion of the work. Al
though the compilation of several States
is known to be complete, - the Superin
tendent refusesAo furnish the result, pre
ferring to pressor the work entire. As
this-will take scidie time, the probabilities
are that the information which is now
sought after by the public will not be ob
tained until some time after the meeting
of Congress. _
The rooms of the Republican Congres
sional Committee are now crowded with
a busy throng of clerks and helpers, en
gaged in answering correspondence and
supplying the great demand for the docu
ments issued by that organization. The
Secretary_of the Committee is constantly
at hand, keeping a, watchful eye on the
business and answering his heavy corre
spondenoP.; From all sections of the
country come encouraging reports of the
prospects if victory, and the requests for
the records and speeches of the Republi
can candidates' and leaders. Day • and
night the clerks are busy supplying
the demand for ' documents and by the
end of the rnonth several millions of these
will.havelieen scattered among the peo
ple. . , ),
Under the auspices of the Democratic

of Baltimore, and the gray and butternut
yeomanry of the surrounding hills' f Vir
ginia, were called into service tO swell'
the meeting to a respectable figure and
eclipse, if possible, the great ratification
recently held by the Republicans.. They
came. as , invited, conspicuous . among
them being a squadron of the old Virgia
ia'" black horse guerilla's " of the rebel
lion, shouting and yelling until the night
was made hideous. But, by the time the
various delegations had filed through the
principal streets, and had reached ,the
grand rallying point, the speakers stand
in front of the City Hall—a good deal of
their enthusiasm had apparently oozed
out.
. ,With all the eloquence and brilliant or
atory used upon the occasion
,by . the
"prominent speakers !" present, it proved
to be insufficient 'to 'hold together the
gathering multitude. The atmosphere
of the adjoining refreshment rooms weep
evidently more congenial to - their tastes,
where as they called for their beer they
could swear how the Republican party
would tremble when it heard of the great
meeting of the rinterrified' in the District
of Columbia. From the extraordinary
efforts that have' been made, the turn out
was not kept up to what they had ex
pected. Huge posters advertising; the
meeting were spread on every available
space about the city. It was the theme
of conversation :whenever any two of the'
faithful met congratulated and "smiled,',
Any number of boys were hired to fill up
the lineTpd nothing was left undone to
make arabw , that the enthusiastic and
sanguine trends of the "superb" could
do,.
But however much they may seek to
glorify the nomination *and endeavor to
stay the tide of public opinion, it is 7tevi
derit that their efforts will 'be fruitless.
The handwriting is on the wall. The
shado4vs of , their defeat are 'becoming
broader' and darker. '

part of it as well understood as - are the
precincts of a ward to a local bo.s. But,
meanwhile ho is laboring so assiduously
in his iron-plated residence the Republi
can canvass is advancing with an energy
and enthusiasm that is causing plenty of
bad reports and appeals for help-to go up
to Democratic headquarters. That the
Republicans will carry the State by. a
handsome majority is now fully exiveted.

with General Sherman, took his ,depart

remaining on the Pacific coast some two

C !CA GO, August bloody
and possibly fatal fight occured this
morning between a man and a mon
key in a Small zoological garden on
State Street. Among the animals
exfPited was a large and viciou'S
creature, being a cross between the:
gorilla and ordinary monkey, named
Jim, weighing seventy-five pounds.
This forenoon he broke his chain and
attacked the manager: of the show.
The latter's cries -brought , Harry
Martin to his. aid, upon whom Jim
immediately sprang and fastened his
teeth anti claws in his lower limbs,
tearing them in a •fearful manner be
fore assistance could be rendered.
The monkey escaped to Wabash av
enue, pursued by a crowd, and there
hid under the sido;:alk. Martin was
removed to a doctor's office, and his
numerous and_ ugly woundS were
sewed up. He suffered greatly from
loss of blood, but may survive.

THE rapid increase in the grciwth

Concerning the cultivation of .tobac

and generally believed, that rich soil
required to raise tobacco would- be
soon eShausted by the crop. !Wheth

or not, it is demonstrated that those
who have been engaged in its cultiva
tion have-been well rewarded. Tali
