PLAIN FACTS FOR TAX-PAYERS.
It should be borno in miud by every
tax-payer ot tbe Nation that the enor
mous burden of debt under which thj
country 19 staggering, was fixed upon it
by a rebellion inaugurated, lostered and
strengthened by tbe Democratic) party.
It should be borne id mind tout this
debt was enormously iu creased by tho aid
and comfort given to the rebellion while
in progress, by the Democratic party,
whereby the rebels were encouraged to
prolout; the strusjlo n-ruiust the Union
armies, alter all other reasonable hope ol'
success had been cxtinguishcri.
It should be borne in mind that the
debt of the Nation was still further in
creased bv the efforts of tbe Democratic
party to cripple and destroy the public
credit, in tlie midst of the struggle for
national existence, and that tbe national
bonds were thereby forced to heavy dis
count in contracting loacs with which to
carry on the war, and the national cur.
reuuy was thus largely reduced below its
true value iu gold, thereby adding enor
mously to the cost of all material pur
chased for the use of the Government.
It should bs borna iu mind by every
taxpayer of the Nation, that the Demo
cratic party stands pledged to secure com
pensation to the slave holding rebels lor
every slave set free by the linmncipation
Proclamation and Constitutional Amend
ment, thus adding an immense and unjust
burden to the already onerous taxation
under which the country gr'ians.
It should be borne in mind, that all
the Democratic members iu tho Hourfe of
the Fortieth Congress, have placed thetn
se'ves upon record by their votes, in favor
of tiie monstrous proposition that the Na
tioual government is liable, under the lie
eoustvueliou laws, for every dollar of the
State debts of all the States in rebellion
It should be borne in mind by every
taxpayer, that the Democratic party,
tUroiiL'h its orators and writers for the
press, is committed to the unheard of
oioposition that the Confederate war debt,
contracted in tbe iniquitous straggle to
overthrow the National Government, is
justly char-reable against the Government,
aud that this party only waits the success
of its insidious attempts to regain power,
to fasten this debt upou the people of the
Uuitcd States.
It should be borne in mind by every
taxpayer, that the Democratic party has
made jKirsisteut nnd strenuous efforts to
injure both public and private credit, and
bring on a jiuancial crisis, such as will
make it impossible for the Na'ica ta meet
its obligations promptly, thus carrying
wide-spread ruin throughout the country.
and reducing to beucarv thousands of
widows aud orphans and other worthy
persons whose little all is invested in gov
ernment bonds, fur the reaemption of
which the faith of tbe Nation is pledged.
It should be borne ia mind by every
taxpayer that the Democratic party per
sistently opposes every effort made to
lighten the public burden, by levyiDg du
ties upon foieign imports, thus reqiuring
foreign capitalists and traders who have
the benefits of our markets to bear a small
share of our burden io return, and at the
same time protect our homo manufactur
ers from the deadly competion of foreign
capitalists who grow fat upon the proceeds
of pauper labor.
And finally, it should be borne in mind
by every tax-payer, and every patriot who
has the good of the country at heart, that
the speakers of the Democratic party
openly avow thst their hope for the suc
cess of that party lies only in financial
disaster to the country, whether caused by
failure of crops, by the discrediting of the
national currency, by preventing the Na.
tion from meeting its obligations, or how
ever resulting.
We earnestly hope that every Union
paper of Pennsylvania wiil keep these
facts before the people continually, un
til after the next election shall have re
buked the iniquity of the Democratic par
ty by the largest Republican Liajority
ever given in the State. Miners' Jour
nal. The Trial of Da vis JIow the Farce
Witt be Played. A letter from Richmond
says that Davis will appear for trial at tfco
November term of the United States Dis
trict Couit at Richmond, and the case will
probably be finally disposed of in this way :
The counsel for the defense will declare
themselves ready for trial. The Court
will signify its assent iu the same manner.
The government will ask for time under
the pretense of being unprepared a shift
to get out of the trial. The Court will
tbeu say that it will be in session for a
considerable period, which will afford the
government ample time to prepare, and if
its representatives fail to prosecute the
prisoner before the term or the court ex
pires, it will in that case probably declare
the prisoner discharged in tbe absence of
the prosecutor.

PHILADELPUIA MARKETS.
s . - I- ' t
We are somewhat astonished to notice"
that the Quaker city of Philadelphia puta
forth a claim to being, not only the great
est manufacturing city on this continent,'
but, with the exception of London, the
greatest in the world. We are all famil
iar with its advantages as a quiet and
pleasant place of residence ; but that it
should claim to be a great industrial cen-
tre, will be news to many. As the matter -is
one, however, in which our merchants
aro directly interested, and the consumers
of goods indirectly, we will give a brief
synopsis of its claims. . . ,
Iu 1SG0, according to the Census re
turns, there were in Philadelphia, G 2JS
manutactories having a capital of
31,883, which employed 03,000 hand,
aud produced an annual value ol Slob,
000,000. Recently, Mr. Edwin T. Freed
ley, a well known author, has prepated a
volume of 700 pages, on the Manufac;
tures of Philadelphia, and demonstrated
that, in lbGG, tbe factories produced over
tico hundred Million of dulhrs of staple
goods. This is an astounding exhibit ;
no other city on the American continent
approximates this amount. In Iboo; tfca'
State of Massachusetts, including Boston,
Lowell, and all her famous manufacturing'
towns, did not produce more than twp
hundred and forty millions. In 1800,'
New York had only seveD small Cotton.
Goods Manufactories, and no Woolen
Mills Philadelphia is now the commer
cial centre of two hundred aud sixty
Woolen Factories, and besides, several
thousand hand looms, of which the annual
product is equal to that of seventy addi
tional milis of average site. The class of
Dry Goods manufactured in Philadelphia
is of those low priced staple goods, vrtipU
are especially adapted to tho wants of tho
people in the Middle, Western and South
ern States. Millions of yards of t'anta
looncry, Cottonades, Checks and Stripes,
Tickings, Osiia'uurgs, Kentucky Jeans,
and Narrow Textile Fabrios, are mado
there every year. Of Carpetings, the
product amounts to nearly ten millions of
dullars; of Ready Made Clothing, to
eighteen millions ; of Refined Sugar, over
twenty millions ; of Roots and Shoes, over
five millions ; of Stoves, nearly three mill
ions. Philadelphia claims to have tho
largest Military Goods Manufactory, tho
largest Chemical factories, the largest
Cordage factory, the largest Poo-selling
honse, and the largest Locomotive Works
and Machine Shops in the United States.
It is quite evident, that her proximity to
the Coal Mines and Iron Beds, her !o7
rents and facilities afforded mechanics for
comfortable and economical living, have)
given Philadelphia a start in manufactur
ing, which nothing but her want of en
terprise can retard. It is moreover evi
dent that with the progress already made
in manufacturingi the Philadelphia mar
ket is worthy the attention of those who
wish to purchase goods at first hand.
TIIE FAITHFUL DOG- .
The Humboldt (NebJ Register of July
20 rccitos the annexed iucidept : Some
time since we published an account of tho
murder of an Italian called Toney, be
tween Paradise Valley and Beachey's nety
stage road. At that time he bid with
hiru 3 Jqrga Newfoundland dog as his bnij
companion, loney was doubtless shot
from ambush while passing through a ra
vine, and so disabled by the Crst fire that
he could make uo resistance. Judciuf!
from the scars and wounds received by
the dog, he must have fought bravely iu
defense of his master's body, but failed (3
save it from mutilation by the savage mur
derers. The mutilated body of tbe nn,
fortunate man laid some ten days where
he was killed before it was discovered,
and all this time this faithful seutiuel and
guard stood watch over the dead body of
its master, without food or water, and
would probably bavo perished rather (hin
abandon him, aud when found by a party
of white men, seemed still loath to sur
render his pharge into their lisad?, nnti
convinced that thoy were iriouds, and in
tended no harm to his poor dead master.
The body tyas moved to Paradise Vallpy
and buried, tbe dog following close by the
porpsp until it was placed in the ground
and oovered away from sight, 'when liis
moans became touchingly painful to hear.
ItirA lady correspondent of the Mil
waukee Seutiuel, who, writing under a
nom deplume, had attracted eorsiJerallo
attention, received a note from a gentle-:
man admirer, receutly, who said that a
lady who could put such beautiful thoughts
on paper must be -equally gifted iu the
person, etc,, etc., aud to meet her by
moonlight slonp, to which she wrote an
assent. She came to the rendezvous
veiled, they walked, he talked, he made
love; finally gained consent to take a lit
tle kiss, and the veil was raised for that
purpose, and the strijken gentleman gaz
ed upon the comely features of his own
wife;
I Says Fanny Fern: "I am fifty
five, and I feel half the time as if I was
just made.' So do a great rrany of our
ladies, and they keep the milliner shops
going too.
ftojrBeer fills many a bottle, and the
bottle fills many a bier. Very true.
