The Means used to Oarry Pennsylva nia for the Radicals. lirpott this subject the Ago says : • The three principal agents used to stimulate the , Radical vote of the State , were.fraud, intimidation and money. In Franklin County it is openly charg ed that money was freely used to secure votes, and from five to twenty five dol lars per head were_ aid to those who were willing to,make merchandise of the dear est. and most„ sacred birthright of. an American citizen. The rich and infbien tial farmers and land owners in that lo cality alsothreatened to discharge their hands, and withhold a renewal of leases from their tenants, if they . failed to vote ant}-work for the Radical tickets., Again, it is. stated shat numbers of persona were permitted to vote in the Radical town snips who - were = not, - .knowu except members of the (r ,leaues, and that upon a subsequent search fo r such men they can not be found, showing conclusively that they' had been colonized, and afterwards had removed in order to prevent their ar rest and the disclosure of the whole plot. In Juniata County the ballot boxes had evidently been Seed for the occasion, as extra ballots were found in them in some election divisions after the polls had closed, and a greater number of votes were counted for Geary than were legal ly cast. -.Yet, the Radical officers of elec tion insisted upon retaining such votes, and they form part of the returns from that : county. It is stated, upon evidence collected since the • election, that in Washington County at least two, hundred men were colonized and voted who belonged to Al legheny County. They were imported by the radicals, prepared with answers to such *gnestiens as might be pat to them, supplied with a name and residence, and thus equipped presented themselves:at the polls tu_ certain townships. By means of signs -known only to the initiated, they. could notify the election officers belong ing to the Radical party that they were affilial‘edvriih the " faithful," when their votes were immediately taken and depos ited. Then the voters disappeared. This was w game of duplication, for the real names of thepartie.s were voted upon in Allegheny, and thus the vote for Gover nor was doubled. The Same plan , was resorted to in Fay ette,. Westmoreland and Indiana corm ties,under the management of the secret leagiee. ' Money was sent to these local itietlA ;abundance, and used in profusion. All'ibia gaistionable material was floated into the Radical ranks, and men shifted from, one township to another, just as the agents :could depend upon the officers to further their schemes of substitution and fraud. In Cambria County it, is alleged that six hundred additions *ere made to the ' Radical side of the connt, by colonization and voting men upon forged naturaliza ties papers. The latter method of aug menting the vote of this county was re sorted to in the most shameless manner, and means are now being taken to ferret out., if possible, the manufacturers of these papitrs with a view to their arrest• and pumshinent. They came principally from Pittsburgh and this city, and were dis tributed by the secret league of Cambria County., Thsueittlinonyfront Schuylkill and Leb. an counties is elear that money was used' lavisblyeditiapthplataett..

Justice in. Elaine. A brief telegram in yesterday's papers anritnanced the pleasing fact thatin the ac tion against certain parties for destroying the Bangor (Maine) Democrat office in August, 1861, which -has been on trial in that city before the Supreme Court for a fortnight, the jury rendered a verdict Of 8916 against John A. Fabor, of Oldtown, and Samuel A. Mann, of Bangor. This news will be hailed with great pleasure by the true friends of law and order throughout the country. It is to be hoped that every similar outrage per petrated during the progress of our late civil war, will be properly punished.— There were hundreds of cases in which personal malice incited the guilty parties to the commission of the foulest wrongs against peaceable and nnoffending citi zens, while the most infamous attempts were made by the miserable wretches •in poWer to silence the public press either by mob violence or the strong arm of the government. Now, the time has come to mete out proper justice to these bold and flagrant• violators of the rights , and liber ties of the citizen, and we trust that in ev ery instance in whiCh these gross wrongs were inflicted, the courts will be appealed to to vindicate the innocent and punish the gnilty.—Ape, 27th. —Four negroes are now serving on ju ries in Boston—one in the Superior Court for criminal business, one in the first ses sion of the Superior Court for civil busi ness, and two in the second session. The Boston Commonwealth, the organ of Sen ator Sumner, chronicles this fact as show ing that the idea of nein.° equality 'has been lifted into more vitalized existence by the late elections. Those of our peo ple who thought that negro equality was not an issue in the late contest in this State, will now find they were in error. Each Radical triumph is a step nearer to the equality of the white and the negro race in this conntii. Bstaesr, Me., Oct. 26. 2 --In the action against certain parties Int destroying the Bangor Democrat office in August 1861, which has been on trial before the Su preme Court in this city for a fortnight, the jury brought a verdict of $916 against John Fabor, of Oldtown, and Samuel A. Mann, of Bangor, and of not guilty as to remaining. A Horrible Outrage. On Monday last, a negro man by the name of Charles Fagan committed one of the most diabolical crimes known in our land on the person a young and beautiful lady in the eastern part of this county. We refrain from giving her name. She was on a visit to a neighbor's when the negro saw her enter the house, and wai ted for her leave. On her way home he overtook her and laid violent bands on her; it. was not until she was so prostrated in trying to prevent his object that be succeeded in his hellish design. After ac complishing his purpose he threatened to cut her throat, but by her entreaties and promising.to say nothing about the mat ter, be desisted. He then made his es cape, but was pursued and overtaken near Sumpter City. He was then,brought be fore the young lady, who identified him as being the person, and he immediately acknowledged. The brother of the lady then shot him, killing him almost instant ly.—Stnpter Republican. ~.

IT t ooniti,l'biladelphia, Oat, 17, 1888, To the Demcieraey of Pennsylvania : In a poll of more thanix—htindred and ten thousand votes, yoii are lieaten less than three per cent. on the whole. A change of one and a half per cent. would have given you the State. You have re• duced majoritrof yobr opponents, and polled nearly twenty thousand more votes tilinerTeroire":" — trpth — thoi — tiggretate olther einigisgaiotrat votei atilt greater force is shown. In this contest you have proven your devotiou c to principle, have demostrated the strength of your organization, and yield to your enemy a dearly bought ‘ic - tory. ,You are" defeated, but not dismayed." Ruoyancy and hope everywhere pervade your ranks, whilst chagrin and dismay mark the visages of your opponents. Theyjudge you rightly; for, in the light of this exhibition of your stern devotion to, the doctrines of the Constitution, to tho, perpetuity of your Union, and the supremacy, of your race, they read their coming defeat. For the first time since the final dis: bandment of our armies, you have met the forces of the Republican organization. They fought for the life of their party ; they concentrated against you the influ ence of almost every manufacturer, cor poration and bank; they had at their com mand a large,preponderance of the public press of the State, speakers without num ber, all the money that a dynasty of con tractors—to whom the public treasury has been a mine of wealth—could furnish; memories of the war still fresh enough to be the means of exciting hatred ; laws enacted with a view to their own political ascendancy • a well disciplined organiza tion, and all of the advantages that the possession of municipal arid State power could bring them ; and yet, unaided and self dependent, you have combated this powerful combination, and almost carried the State. All honor and praise to the Democracy of the Keystone, for this most gallant fight. A band of men, who, in 1863, can poll for their candidate 254,000 votes; in 1864, 276,000 votes, sod in 1866, 295,000 votes; who plant themselves upon principles that are eternal; who will not despair of the Re public, and who possess the physical pow er and the moral courage to maintain their opinions and preserve their liberties, must eventually be the ruling power in the State. Implicit belief in the justice and truth of the great doctrines that lie at the base of our form of government, aversion to its centralization, 'and confidence in the efficiency of the Constitution for the pres ervation of your liberties, have ever dis tinguished you. These are the magnets around which you have gathered in many a hardiought contest, and to them you will be true as the needle to the pole. Opinions of individuals may change; but, in the future as in the past, come victory or defeat, as a party you will ever be found rallying to these principles as the leading tenets of your political faith. Hope, confidence and courage should be gathered from the remembrance, that two thirds of the white freemen of the Republic think as you do upon these sub jects, and that, on every field on which they are staked, your united action will overcome all opposing forces. We ask you to persevere in the work so auspiciously begun. From this hour, let us determine to go forward. Let us have done with spasmodic efforts, and move onward with unflagging energy The thorough and effectual dissemina tion of truth, is the proper means to your eventual triumph ; and organization, dis cipline, systematic effort and individual exertion, are the avenues that lead to vic tory. Will you pursue them ? United, disciplined and determined, you will be irresistible. By order of the Democratic State Com mittee, WLLLIAII A. WALLACE, Chairman. _ ---w....w.. --- The President's Speeches. The Boston Pilot, a leading Irish paper in this country, likes the bold, frank man ner of the President in addressing the people, and says : "He does right to de fend himself and hie policy against the rude and brutal attacks of the Radical Congress, press, and mob. He talks plain ly to the people, and they understand him. Figuratively, when he speaks, thir ty millions of people listen. Single han ded and alone, with truth, sincere love for the Union, and reverence for the Con stitution, and determination to enforce the laws, he can meet and overturn his enemies. We are thankful that he has seen it to take this course, and entertain the firm belief that the results of the Pres idential tour will operate for substantial good." The Lady's Friend for October.

The recent correspondence between President Johnson and Attorney General Stanberry, relative' to further action on the part of the Executive-to bring let Davis to trial, has served very materially to enlighten the public upon the present, state of affairs. For the present at least; and perhaps for months to come, it will occupy the same position, and another term of the United States Circuit Court will •be steered to 'go by 'without any ea- ,, 4.ion-to.try -tha „prisoner—being takenly..l the judicial authorities. 'he legal diffiCiiities in the way of hold ing the Court at Richmond, in conse quence of the adjournment from NorfOlk in June last, are a serious detriment td itS proceedings, and It: is hardly doubted now that the Court will not assemble next month in Richmond, as was before gen erally supposed. This of course involves a further postponement . of a civil trial of Davis under the indictment for treason presented at the last term of the Circuit Court, and in all probability he will be kept in confinement the entire winter ; that is to say, until the spring term of the Court, excepting, of course, that Ex ecutive clemency does not interpose and grant him a parole and release him from his confinement. In December, when the Supreme Court of the United S tates meets, Judge Chase will be too busy to devote any °ibis time or attention to other legal matters, and the advocates of a speedy trial of Davis, both in the North and in the South, have nothlng to hope for from the present ac tions of the judicial authorities; neither is it likely that a writ of habeas corpus will be issued upon the commandant of the fortress, acting as his custodian, demand ing his deliverence to the United States Marshal for incarceration in a Virginia State jail. As long as be remains a pris oner in the hands of the United States government, he will be retained here in a United States fortress and guarded be- . yond all possibility'of escape. The statement of United States Dis tric Attorney L. H. Chandler to Attorney General Stanberry confirms this view in assigning two different reasons which in fluence him in not taking any steps for removing him from their custody, the one relating to his safe keeping, the other to his own personal comfort and health. Trouble with the Indians. The reports of Indian disturbances in the West show that the different tribes have come to an understanding with ref erence to their attacks upon the whites. With a concerted plan of action they are butchering emigrants on the plains, open ly proclaiming hostilities in New Mexico, and invading Texas along the whole nor thern frontier. A letter from Montana, written by General Fisk, positively states that more than three hundred emigrants have been massacred by Indians on the "Bowsman's Cot-off" route a'one this sea son, seventy men having been killed at. one battle near the Yellow stone a few weeks since, and that the whole route is strewn with fresh graves. In Texas, ac cording to statements just received, thou sands of cattle have been carried off and quite a number of persons either killed or captured. The Governor having called for more troops, General Sheridan bas di rected that adequate proceetion be given; mean while a special agent will go to Washington to urge the acceptance of volunteers. It is time that the govern ; ment would adopt some general plan with regard to the Indians. At present each general in command in the West. seems to act upon his own ideas as to what is just and proper to be done when an out break occurs. A few savages are slaugh tered, the chiefs come in, have a talk, are loaded with presents, and then go back to repeat the outrages. These facts cer tainly support the theory so confidently maintained, particularly in military cir cles, that the Indians systematically re new hostilities, after having arranged the terms of peace, and received press nts, in hope of deriving further advantage from efforts to obtain their friendship.—Ex. Hurricane at Turks Island. lI&LLFAX, Oct. 25. The schooner Victor, arrived at Lune burg, makes the following report: Turk's Island, on the 30th of September, was vis ited with a terrific hurricane, destroying over eight hundred houses and their con tents. Twenty lives were lost, and a number of persons crippled and otherwise injured. Over three thousand persons were rendered houseless, penniless and almost naked. The whole laboring por tion of the colony is in the most deplora ble condit ion. The public schools armory, jail, quar antine hospital, market, and all the Gov ernment out buildings were blown down. The Government house and public officers were shattered, and one hundred and 20 thousand bushels of salt were sweptaway. Six foreign and twelve island crafts were lost, with twenty of their crews. At Salt Cay the ruin was equally se vere. Five vessels went ashore. Among them the schooner Sally J. Aiken, of Wil mington, Del., Captain Monday, and the brigantine A. G. Cattell, of Philadelphia. At Cockburn Harbor the ruin is quite as great; -Scarcely enough houses remain to shelter the destitute. The American schooner L.
