The capture of Kellogg's check book
showing the amount of money stolen by
him from the treasury of Louisiana to
bribe republican leaders at Washington
to support hie usurpation is the latest
Southern outrage. It was au outrage to
make such an exposure, and the case
should figure prominently / in the proceed
ings of the plunderors at-dhattanooga on
the 15th of October. Ptopeelv managed
it cannot fail to exercise great influence
on the pubic mind.
Should the office holders and , retainers
of the administration nominate Grant for
a third term they will not be without
precedents for Inaugurating him even
should he be rejected by the people. The
Louisana case will be given them in abun
dance of encouagement. Nothing more
will be necessary than to declare the
Grant electors chosen in a sufficient
number of states in spite of legal return
and to make a judicious distribution of
federal troops. It is not strange that
Grant cling to Kellogg's fraudulent
usurpation when it may make in the
future a convenient precedent for himself.
The Patriot says that when Tweed
was fairly cornered and brought to bay
by Tilden and O'Connor. his friend
Connolly, willing to do him, a service,
made a little bon-fire of damaging vouch
ers on file in the comptrollers office in
the city of New York. This hint has
not b. en lost upon the thieves of Louis
iana. Just before the late overthrow of
the Kellogg government, the papers in
the attorney general's office at New Or
leans were saturated with coal oil and
set ou fire: The wisdom of this precau
tion has been proven by late events.—
There may be some question raised about
the propriety of the publication of docu
ments fonad to Gov. Kellogg's executive
office ; bat to our mind the transaction
very much resembles the search of the
pockets of a thief ; what be
hits in his private possession may be a
matter of general public concern. It
w:11 divert the attention of the Attorney
General of the Untied Statas a while
from matters of state, and give him pause
to account to the people of the country
for his financial transactions with GOT.
Kellogg. Senator Carpenter and Gen.
Butler may abstract a little time from
electioneering labors to tell what they
know about stabs. The minister to Spain
can cable hie opinion. The aniount of
money Kellogg had to distribute among
lawyers who were republican members of
congress and Presidential favorites for
. the position of Chief Justice of the Sn
preme Court of the United States is
wonderful. His judgment of men tallies
remarkably with that of the Presilent,
and his payment for a private pleasure
yacht out - of the funds of the state ought
to endear him to the chief magistrate of
of the country.
The stubs of many another check book
would be interesting reading. Donbtleu
Gov. Moses, who is not accounted a
thrifty gentleman, paid his way right
royally. We should be glad to overhaul
the stubs of our bumble Pennsylvania
embezzler, - (leo, * O. Evans. But Treed
set all his brethren a notable example
Hia republicertconferses will not doubt
less see the point. The lesson they will
gather from the Kellogg disaster will be
to burn flair stubs.
What inferences honest people may draw
a nd what voticlasione they may arrive at
we' shall better know after the November
election. .
To the Dcmocratic Puny or Penn
sylvania.
The State Democratic Convention met
at Pittsburg on the 29th of August last.
It nominated its candidates, and adopted
the platform, and adjourned. All the
proceedings were marked by a devotion
to the principles of the party, as well as
that harmony which ever prevails when
high purposes controll individual action.
The management of the State canvass
was as usual entrusted to the State Cen
tral Committee, which was duly appoint
ed. This body organized at Harrisburg
on the 22d day of September, last.
Among the first duties of the Commit.
tee was to direct its chairman to address
the Democratic citizens of Pennsylvania,
and, indeed. all the patriotic men of the
Commonwealth who are satisfied that the
prosperity, integrity, and welfare of the
people demand a return to the sound,
tried, and established principles of gov
ernment by which the griat achievements
in our past history were secured.
It needs neither argument or author
ity to demonstrate that the Radical party,
which now possesses the principal power
in Pennsylvania and in the Federal Gov
ernment, has utterly failed to give con
tentment, prosperity or peace to the peo
ple.
In every county in the State the beet
`citizen, the oldest inhabitants, and the
young men are dissatisfied with the po
lical, industrial, financial, and govern
mental policy by which the Radical par
ty afflicts the country.
Industry is not profitable ; the coal and
iron interests are depressed ; the farmers
are not receiving adequate reward for their
toil, and labor is calling for employment.
The Radical party is directly responsi
ble for all this. It has majorities in Con
gress and in the State Legislature, and
the Executives of the State and the Un
ion were placed in those positions, by as
sum, i majorities at the elections.
The distress and uncertainty in all
kinds of business is the result of the pol
icy of the Radical party which insists In
substituting for Constititional money—
gold and silver—a national bank paper
eurrency or promise to pay, always below
par, redeemable only in other promise to
Pay•
The people are poorer to-day than at
env late period in our history. Vactories
are idle and farms are for sale, without
buyers in every part of Pennsylvania.
There are more merchants and laboring
men out of work in Pennsylvania than
ever before.
In the Southern States, the so-called
"reconstructed States,•' which the Radi•
cal party r3ught to legislate into rotten
boroughs for the express purpose of send :
ing Radical members into a Radical don
gress, civil war, a war of races, destitution
despair, poverty, corruption, frauds exist,
and carpet-baggers and negroes ruleland
ruin.
Abusing the powers obtained by frineds
at elections, and furce in many States,
and corruption everywhere, the Radical
party now attempts to degrade tie White
race by enacting into a law what is known
as "odious civil rights bill," by Which
the white man and his wife are degraded
to the level of the negro, since no iegis
lotion can ever elevate the negro td that
of the white ; and the children of bite
parents are to be forced into associ tion
with the offspring of the negro i n the
public schools. Made desperate lily the
criticism of a free press, and its exphsure
of the usurpatione,and rings of theedi.
cal party, it enacted at the last seas on of
Congress the Poland gag law, by hieh
it expected to destroy the liberty f the
press ; but an outraged and indignant
people will veto this last Radical i iqui
ty.
And more than this ; we are aTpazed
at the present state of affairs in ourlsister
State Louisiana, produced as it is by the
stupid, reckless partisan hatred of Grant
and his advisers. The Radical commit
tee of the United States Senate appoint
ed to "investigate" the claim set hp by
Kellogg and his followers to be thel State
i i
government in Louisiana, reporte that
the claim was unfounded in fact nd in
law. That a usurpation of State a thor
ity wholly indefensible ahaructPriz the
Kellogg es-called govercm-nt ; tliat it
was. an outrage on the rights of the peo
ple, and was sustained entirely by Feder
al troops ; that Kellogg was never elect
ed Governor, and the Legislature pre
tended to have been elected was illaced
in power by the unconstitutional actions
of a Federal Judge, who disgraced hie
office by his unjustifiable proceedings;
that the Democratic Governor and Leg ,
islature wete duly elected, and were de
prived of the right to ezeecise thel i ir au
thority by Federal troops. NotwithStand
ing this report, when the citizel
Louisiana asked to be heard by I
before he decided to sustain this
ping gang of carpet-baggers and tee,
those white citizens were told that
would not be allowed to present
petition or be heard in their defenet

solemn and calm condemnation of

picture of the present condition of

Let us have a change. ThP people'
heartened and in despair, are pre
for a change. This change must

The system by which the Rad
have obtained power must be overfill
the elections must be honestly condu
and honest returns of the will
people, which the ballot•box con
must be male. Every mau of virtue,
courage, and honesty in this State must
be au overse-r at the polls, and deumnd
justice from those who perpetrate frauds.
Every tuv,uship in the State Inuit be
thoroughly organized, and every voter
enabled to vjote.
The Derubcrats should reel it a duty to
u p por t the! local Democratic prom that
all the iutOligence which is needed they
can readil obtain. It is the duty of
the Democ r acy to do this, so that the
uninfortneil, and those who desire to
(
know the ( principles of the Democratic
party may be instructed, and those of
the peopl who desire light and knowl
edge in order to show the cause and au
thors* ofj present disasters and coming
perils ma' have the evidence at hand.—
The young men are earnestly invoked to
devote some of their means to this pur
pose.
Each county in the State should
promptly organize a county committee of
earnest, active Democrats, who will devote
time and labor to redeem the Common
wealthrand bring it back once again to
the support of the principles of constitu
tional government.'
Evety man who ; eofesses to believe
that honesty is the right policy, in public
as in private affairs, should unite, freed
from party ties, to put an end to the
frauds, corruptions, rings, jobs, and
schemes for the plunder of the people,
which no sane man doubts thtt are the
outcome of the proll igacy of the Radical
party.
The people of Pennsylvania lately rat
tied and adopted the present Constitu
No sooner was this declared to be the
organic law of the Commonwealth than
the Radical Legislature created a com•
mission, the Radical majority in which
may change all its reformatory provis
ions, and reinstate those by which the
late constitution enabled a corrupt Leg
islatue to inflect vast injury on the peo
ple for special,-private. or partisan oh•
jects.
Democrats of Pennsylvania, we invoke
all your patriotism, zeal, energy and cease
less vigilance in the canvas which is now
begun. Its purposes are of the highest
concern to every man in the State. We
seek to obtain good government, honesty
economy, prosperity, specie payments,
that the people may be lightly bu rdened
by taxation ; integrity and purity in pub
lic racers; a true representation of the
needs and welfare of the people in the
State Legislature and in Congress; fidelity
and honesty in the departments of the
State government ; fair elections and
honest returns: destruction of "rings" in
cities and State, and the return of this
great and glorious Commonwealth to its
rank among slater States as the Demo
cratic keystone of the Federal arch,which
should rest on the undefiled and restored
Constitution of the united States of
No. 1014 Walnut Steeet, in the city
of Phladelphia, we have now made the
Democratic headquarters of the Commit.
tee, and the Chairman earnestly requests
the chairman of the cuuoty committees
in the State to open communication with
him promptly. It is deemed essential
that the organ , zation of the township
and counties should begin ut once, and
report made to the headquarters of the
State Committee weekly.

Semmes's PIILMONIC SYRUP.
SCUENCKB SEA WEED TONIC.
SCHENCKR MANDRAKE PILLS.
Are the only medicines that will cure Pul
monary Consumption.
Frequently medicines that will stop a cough
will occasion the death of the patient; they
lock up the liver, stop the circulation of the
blood, hemorrhage follows, anu in fact, they
clog the action of the very organs that caused
the cough.
Liver Complaint and Dyspepsia are the causes
of two-thirds of the eases of Consumption.—
Many persons complain of a dull pain in the
side, constipation, coated tongue, pain in the
shoulder-blade, feelings of drowsiness and rest-
Ic.sties, the food lying heavily on the stomach,
accompanied with acidity and belching up of
wind.
These symptoms usually originate from
disordered condition of the stomach or a torpid
liver.
Persons so elected, if they take one or two
heavy colds, and if the cough in these cases be
suddelly checked, will find the et 00136.1 and
liver clogged, remaining torpid and inactive,
and almost before they are aware the lungs are
a mass of sores, and ulcerated, the result of
which is death.
Schenek's Pulmonic Syrup is an expectorant
which does not contain opium or anything cal
culated to check a cough snddealy.
Schenck's Sea Weed Tonic d.ssolves the food
mixes with the gastric juices of the stomach,
Mos digestion, and creates a ravenous appetite,
When the bowels are costive, skin sallow, or
the elinploins otherwise of' a billions tendency,
Sche - nck's Mandrake Pills are required.
These medicines are prepared only by
