A Candid Opinion of Governor Geary.

pen of its .tiocemplished editor; ' . l - tev: - Zelotes
Puller:
"To voters all! We do 'not: wish •it , - to be
understood that we here , speak as a politi
cian—which we are not—but simply as a•true
American,.as a citizen' of the Itepriblic,,as a
Unionist, as one who is in - l'avor of - universal

"The record of General Geary awn patriot,

and patriotic.
It should not be forgotten that when grim
visaged; war was fearfully raging, and
lion was committing its awfulravag,es, dealing:
death and destruction on every hand—and
rendered still more frightfully. wicked and
terrible by reason of its, fratricidal character—
General Geary stood firm and undaunted be
tween your ranch-loved' boniest and the,can
non's mouth ! His fidelity to the . Union Gov
ernment, and unwavering devotion to the
countryhe has so largely helped to save from
wreck and ruin, have passed into a proverb,
and are well known to the nation:
"Let all then, throughout' the length and

The New'York Tritium has the -folkriviitg
Pennsylvania has an holiest record of set.-
' ice to the 'Union. She took-a good , share in
^ the war and proved her devntlon _to the Win
, eiples upon which it, was fought by . ..shedding
her blood on Many a -field, and giving .her
money to support - the national armies. if she
is sorry for what she has done.we suppose she
will show it by giving her votes to
;men who bgerr,- . conspienotgo,
advocates" of - eVerything' she fought •
'against ; if, she is prmi(l : „of her I a.st she
• will ratify' it by an overpowering defeat of
witnessed at Gettysburg the turning point of
:the long struggle for , freedom of which the
war was' only .. . :,the. ,last . expression. Mr.
Packer has not been muckin,public
:but whenever , he-. bas, he has taken side,s
'with the party which received at Gettystl
burg its critical overthrow. He was , a
member of. the House of Representatives
in 1.855 and 1.856. Dnring that time he
cast, so.far.ae we can remember,, • only. four
very - important votes. 'One 'of - these ,was
against the settlement and payment of the
claims of widows of Revolutionary soldiers;
the other three:were' directly in support of
Slavery hi some of'its most oclicki.s forms. He
voted, July B,lBsfr a against:the ;admissiog of
Kansas under a free oenititiltion . He voted,
July 29, 1856,•in favor of rising the =tart ' power Of theh Government to' aid theßorder
Ruffians, and ettforett thenadt.tricints::brilbe." - ;
bogus Lecompton Constitution. , Finally, he
'voted against tinifollowing tresoluticin,oftered k
by Mr. Etheridge, DecemberlB,l2,s6, on occa
sion of the landing of two slave cargoes on the
Southern coast:, , •
"Resollii.d i That this llouseregards all sugges
tions and propositions of every kind,
whomsoever made; for, arevival of the
' can slave-trade, as shocking to the moral,senr,
timent of the enlightened portion of maxi
kind, and that any action on the, part of . Con
gress conniving at, or legalizing that horrid
traffic would justly subject the Government
and citizens of the United States to the re
proach and execration, of all civilized and
Christian people in the world."
On a propasition to Jay this humane and
Christian resolution on the table, Mr.-Packer':
V °fed Yea :' en its final passage he voted - .Ziro'. -
Mr. Packer, declared the other day that -hei.
never held and never expected to hold a dAT,

If now;Petuisybrania elects as her Governor;

A :Manly Defentie of Hint.
The 'New York Times has this timely article,
upon the subject of the Copperhead assaults.
upon the President : -
The policy of the Administration has been,
such as to present no Scope for the assaults
which the Democratic Party feel bound to
make in their present difficulties. It is hence
deemed necessary to malign the character of
the President. the received the tributes
which the gratitude of a people forced upon
him is now imputed to him as, t an offence.
But as the folly and spitefulness of this accu
sation served to take all the sting 'out
of it, the delrice was adopted of set
ting spies on the houses of private per
sons, and, of ransacking family history, in the
hope of ending some:fresh pretext for slander
ing one of the most distinguished men who
Lave ever conferred great services on this
country. We shall. say nothing of the . jour
nalism which respects' neither the dignity of
nublie life nor • the sanctity of private house
holds, and which dogs siekmen in the hope of
getting them to incriminate 'their relatives.
There are several- ways of treating our call
ing;• and , we must not • be surprised
that, it is sometimes made to play a
part which (does it little honor. But we
have now , waited. until the indictmerit against
the Presiclent is exhausted, and what'is the
result of a close scrutiny into it? ~That the
President has a brother-iii-law who some
times speculated in Wall street; that James
Fisk, Jr., tried to make a tool •of the brother
in-law ; and that the Government took a
course which inevitably frustrated the schemes
of both, and consequently is, above all sus
picion of being prompted; ley corrupt motives.
Upon the original accusation, pitiful as it was,
the people are still invited toy relinquish their
t , ontnience in the President.' probably there
are few men who would'like' to, be Made re
sponsible for all the acts of ail •their relatives.
It is a moral accountability which most of us
would be sincerely sorry to,nndertake, and in
private life it is happily no usual to hound a
man down for the faults of his ; connections by ,
marriage. The present conspiracy against the
President is calculated to. inspire feelings of
impatience and disgost wherever it is heard.
7t is a trick to help a hopeless cause at an
election, and as such, it will be summarily
scouted by the people.
General , Grant deserves, better even of the
Democrats than the treatment he is now re
ceiving. lie was the means of saving, them
from the rule of candidates of whom they
have themselves;become heartily ashamed.
They admit that his election supplied the
opportunity for that full and fair trial of Re-'
üblican principles which- they' professed to
be anxious to see. The, obligations of
the country at large to, the present Chief
Magistrate are of a nature to make every
just-Minded• man willing to concede to lam
all reasonable indulgence in an arduous po
sition. It is'not, however, indulg'ence which
he needs, but simply, fair
.play, and it would
be a reproach to us as a people if we refused
to 'accord it to him. Flis , administration has
,sustained onr honor abroad and increased our
prosperity at home. If the Alabama claims
have been allowed_to lie by for a time,it is be
cause they' could not be pressed with my im
mediate hope of AU amicable and satisfactory
settlement: , We long ago put the plain question
,to our people whether they `were anxious to go
to' scar. They Were not,: and an angry dispute
,was laid aside until time had somewhat cooled
the passions_ it_ excited. Again, we
have not rushed Wildly into a war with Spain
'about Cuba, but we have' increased the esti-
mation in which we are held by, other nations;
'by our policy on the. question.. , There never ;
was a' time' in our' history when we stood
'stronger or more respected before the world'
at large. At home the burden of - taxes has
been lightened, order restored, ill -feeling
soothed down and the national debt reduced. , .
These are appreciable results of only a few

late in fall, as a timely warning to; l the imfor
)timate Republic of the North : • -
1 It it is true, as says the telegranf of the As-
sociated Press, contraryto what was to be ex
pected, that• the Hornet has left the United
LStates, armed with seven cannon, and
by.,160 persons, the question is more delicate,
than ?fir. Sickles's note. As is easily under . -
43triod the crew'are Cubans by name, only,,for
'exec •tin
.1 the worth ollicers of.the navy who
;were 'ern 3 ere an' some o . .' nes retire.
fiord the service, there 'could perhaps "lie
;foruid no sons of the, island capable of-filling
,al.l; the positions. If, it is really true) as from ,
,the , foregoing, that the Hornet has • left,
.manned by 150 men, and the United States,
does not parsue and punish them, then we
know what to expect. — This" act is
diitinet from those which, have pre
ceded' it, for up to this their eficrrts;
have Only been directed to embarking men
and arras secretly for the insurgents: Thef
'article we have written forour next issue
and, theletters of the 9th of, September „ad- ,
deesied to the _Herald by its correspondent ,
31adrid,'and,which we have "translated, will,
explain how the people of the, ltetropoll'are'
alining on the question 'of alba- and the
United States. If it is true that the Hornet
has, been thus armed, we believe the Aaaglo-
Arnerican,Government will hold the authors,.
to the most severe responsibility, awi willgive:
orders, that the vessel ~be pursued and,.
caught' wherever the men-of-war 'mayfind
her. If it should not do so; God knows what
consequences may restilt at a future day, not,
far distant;for an attempt so Contrary to' the
principles of the laws of men. As te the
chtmages the Hornet, converted into an in-
cendiary of theseas, might do, they cannot be
as grave as those caused by twenty highway
men
secreted in the mountains of Cuba. She
may' harm two Or three of the* unarmed
Spanislivessels which at this season navigate
in th&se'waters, but her coal would soon give
out, and she would be detained on entering'
the port of any civilized nation, as the Cuban
flag
. ana the governments of Sibanien and
Guatmaro are not known, and mach less re
cognized.)
In considerinc , this and other articles of the
press here, with a, view of giving them their
due importance, it should always be borne in
mind that they are published under a despotiC
government, where the press is under a rigid
censorship, and are written by editors who are
prominent members of the "Casino Espariol,'? •
within whose walls Spanish sentiment shapes ,
itself, and they may therefore be regarded ,as
the authoritative expression of rulers and peo
ple. They indicate how possible a war: is,
notwithstanding the relative strength of the
two Powers, and to what dxtent the bigotry
and vanity of the Spanish race may carry
them toward their own destruction. ;
There is very considerable excitement and
agitation throughout the city on account of
the Hornet, as it, is anticipated that, if out; she'
will turn her attention to the ships bringing
reinforcements from Spain.—lfereld.
