,Supply Yourselves with 'Helots.
We =quest our Democratic friends in the vari
oustownsiiips to call at the office of the-Daily Post
immediately, and supply themselves with tickets:
This matter should not be neglectekby any means.
Sr: - Ifamplges Ilumnelation of Ifaionry.
- i We presented this document to our readers yes
taniay. There was, an extraordinary demand for
it, as might well be expected. We heard such a
paper was in existence, but after using every effort
in out power, could not persuade the federal editors
.
-40 give it publicity. In. order to obtain a copy of
the renunciation, we were compelled to' offer a re
'ward of $5, or in other words bribe the friends of
gr. Hampton to prodace it : We knew the Gazette
editor would sell a pound of his flesh for money,
and therefore we felt almost certain that if he
could obtain the renunciation, without his fifteen
masters knowing it, he would jump at the $5l
Now, we call upon the editors of the Gazette, Jour-I
I
- mil and anierican, in the spirit of candor and fair-1
• ness, to publish this renunciation in their respective
papers. Will they do so? We call the attentiMii
of the editor of the Journal in particular to this i
matter, and we hereby tender to him the use of
the type gratuitously, if, he will only publish the
renunciation in his paper to-morrow. We trust it t
Will not become necessary for us to pay $5 for thel
insertion of this most extraordinary document in
the federal papers! •
Hampton, we believe, 'equated in this county
some time during the campaign of 1890, and how
tuiroitly he has concealed the fact of his having
_ been a Mason, from the great slims of the people!.
Did he in the numerous speeches he has made, in
this county, ever allude to or disclose the fact ?
Did the delegates who nominatedhim know the
fact? We think the secret was disclosed but to
few, and the fraudulent attempt of Hampton and
White, to cheat and deceive the people into the
support of Hampton is scandalous ;
It seems' from the records of the Lodge and
Hampton's own letter, that he joined the Lodge
, . and took three degrees in 1826, some years after the
revelations of Morgan, the correctriess of which
he very candidly vouches for. , - I
) 1
," In orderto prove how utterly hollow this manl
1 1 Hampton's profession's are, it is only necessary to I
. :. refer baek, to a short History of his times in Uniond
I ‘ town. After the alleged Ahduction_oll-Morr- t
) --- 111eitRIge at uniontown, I , l7,ilien composed off
the old Citizens agreed among thems , elves to give
up the ceremonies of ;Masonry and surrender their
• `charter to the Grand Lodg,o of the State. This was
in the year 1829, and four years after Morgan's
revelations as they were called; and which Hamp
ton now endorses, were published. Hinniton then
a violent Mason, set himself to work to reinstate !
1 Masonry and reorganize the. Lodge, and finally suc.
A needed. He wrote a letter to the grand Lodge
1 asking to have the charter restored. He carried'
:1 it about among the:Masons in Uniontown for sig.
1 natures, and he sent it to the Grand Lodge and ob
'1•
- - tained the charter that had been surrendered. At
. . that time, 1828 and 1829, Hampton figure&as a
1 „prominent mason, but finding that it did not serve
his, interests as he expected, he removed to Somer. '
set county, where Antimasonry was strong, and
I
there;it seems, renounced Masonry, in terms, tool
so vile and basely abusive of his old associates,
that after moving to Allegheny county, he was
. : ashamed of his own production, and wished to sink
• it into oblivion.'
-1 - The trickster has been caught in his own net,
and every honorable man will despise the mean andl
, . contemptible knavery and "thimble rigging."
Take this mean, low, cunning knavery, in con
flexion with the $5OO fee received from the Gov
ernment for services never performed, or if per
_
- formed at all, must have been done secretly, and
contrary to the rules of court, as well as moral hon
.
esty, because, when a lawyer takes a fee from one
side, he hairno right to take another fee from the
othersside—we say, take these two acts of Hemp
:. ton and place them together, and if the Whig party
i are not heartily ashamed of their candidate, they,
. will swallow any thing!
oThe canting hypocrite of the Gazette indi
rectly attacks `"the candidates of the Democratic
party, lay..'calling upon "the friends.of religion,
morality; temVerance and justice, to make a, com
parison" between the Democratic and Federal tick.
eta! Only mark the cool impudence of this jaun
diced ' pharisee! "'lf the federal leaders wish to
commence a. religious crusade, let them crack their
whips and go ahead. But who would have thought
that the leaders of a rally, who, in 1890, introdu
ced into the country the worst kind of immorality
_and drunken debauchery, should tit= hold up their
sanctimonious hands and make a call upon "the
friends of Morality?" Did not the oppositio
leaders, in . 1840, - appeal to the worst passions of
' human nature in order to elect their candidate for
President? Did they not introduce riot and drunk
-
ennesss of erery'species? Did they, no; in their
songs, on every occasion, sing atone street corners
and in grog shops, ,
"Bring out the round-bellied, bottle,
, And drink - to .old Tippecanaer-
Did they not break the 'Holy . Sabbath? . Did
they not hold their, political -reVelries in places
'where no moral man:would - be found Did, they
not resort to fraud, violence and falsehood, to ac
coMplish their nefariouspurposes? We would like
the Gazette to answer these questions. We have
not the slightest objection that the voters of Alla.
ghentiounty should canvass the political honesty
or moral rectitude of every candidate on the De
mocratic ticket. We are eopfident they will loose
nothing a a domptrison with' the candidates of

Cost, Tnans.—The Pottsville ?diner's Journal
of Saturday last says: "The shipments, this week
amount to 32,4.20 16 tons, being an increase of about
3,700 tons. This increase is caused by the de.
mand for retail sale's, which are pretty; active at
this time, and ash continue for some time to come.
The - total amount shipped to date is 905,3 . 1092
tons. There is but little chance of anything being
done on the canal this season; indeed, those who
pretend to know, say that nothing can possibly be
done this year." ' • =

and fashionable'an audience at the Odeon on Tues
day evening, to hear the singing of the Minx°.
trairsts. These talented artists appear to be gain
ing greater favor with our citizens every day; no
more than they merit, for their performances are
the most chaste and beautiful of the kind ever wit
nessed in our city. They perform again, we be
lieve, this evening.
Tuswraz.—This fashionable place ,of resort,
continues to 'be crowded nightly. This evening
Mr. Ox tax, a very talented and popular, actor, lays
his claims before.the public for a benefit,—we
hope he may have a good one. The pieces select
ed are Hamlet, in which he, OXLEY, excels and
the farce of the Review. Give him a" bumper."
TOP. EPISCOPAL. CiaSTENTION, recently in ses•

security to return the same, if some competent tri_
burial should decide that he yeas not entitled to be

bate, during the pendency of the resolution was
very animated, and it was finally agreed to by a
vote of yeas, 90 clergy, 79 laity, to nays, 27 clergy,
44 laity. Majority and minority reports were
made upon the application of St. Philips (colored)
church, for a representation in the Convention—
the former ads me thereto. But were ordered to
be printed, and the subject will form an exciting
topic of discusion in the next annual Convention,
The body adjourned sine die on Saturday evening
last.
Tam WELLTII OP TUE WEST.-.-.The value of
the receipts of western produce received in New
Orleans during the year ending the first instant, is
estimated at seventy-sehen millions, one hundred
and ninety-three thousand, four hundred and sixty

little less than thirty-five millions. Corn one and
a half minibus. Tobacco four and a half millions.
Sugar one and a quarter millions. Lard near two
millions. Pork and bacon, near five millions.

man can ascertain this fur himself is, ;to multiply
the price per quarter by 7, and divide by 12; the
result will give the amount per barrel:: Thus 50
shillings per quarter, multiplied by 7, land divided

For the Pittsburgh Morning Post.
Ma. Hiursa:—White staying ln your city for
a few days past, my attention has been directed to
the subject of your want of public squares so earn
estly pressed upon the attention of your citizens by
your.elPand your correspondents. The editor of
the "Chronicle" in his leader of yesterday, follows
Up the same subject with much force. But is it
not an error that "within the city there is but one
place suitable fora public square, that is the lot in
front of the court house." So far is a square is
concerned the editor of the Chronicle maybe cor
rect, but if he means by a square a place of resort
in the open air for your citizens and your little ones,
he is undoubtedly mistaken.. One otl the most un
sightly objects 1 observe is the ruggedface of the
hill at and above your basin. Were that improved
as it can be, neatly terraced and planted with trees,
it is capable of being made one: of the most de- ,
lightful places imaginable. I have ;no doubt the
owners Of property there would cheerfully give a
portion of it for the public good; indeed, I am sat
isfied it would - be their interest to do so, for thereby
the value of the remainder would be very materi
ally enhanced:- The residents in thebeighborbood
would Contribute towards • the payment of the ex
pense,.and (if your-city is-too poon to afford it)
perhups every dollar requisite, would be subscribed
by the people themselves.
Let me not be misunderstood as ndmitting,the
propriety of selling "the lot in front of the court'.
house," my purpose in this communication is to
call the attention of your people to, e matter en
tirely within their Power.* Whether You can obtain
"the lot in front of court house," or -not, may Jong
be a question; but inihe meantime you can beauti
fy,' and adorn the face.of the bill,mulcing it an' or
nameiit to your city, at a comparatively sinall,ex
pease. - A TRAVELLER. .*

he has attempted to reduce the wages of labor.—

A:friend has called my attention to a communi
cation in the Daily Morning Post of the stli inst.,
la which It charged that ‘.Johan B. Batter, late
Canal Conimissioner, is adefaidter.
This communication was taken to tbte office of
the Post by,Williare Fostir, P.sq.',ruld Hearn
that handbills, dated , at Pittsburgh, , ,Oct: 3,- 1346,
uttering the same charge: have been widely. circu
lated. •
Ignorant of the motives which may have
prompted such a course towards Mr. Butler during
his absence from the United States, I: shall confine
myself to the simple declaration, that so far as it
may be intended to convey the idea that. John B.
Butler has dishonestly retained or rnisapplied a
single dollar of the public money, the communi
cation.gives utterance to a scandalous falsehood.

Owing ;to their marvellonsly purgative and cooling
qualities, their freedom froth, unpleasantness of
taste,•gripe and nausea, and the peculiarly power
fulinfluence by which they control arid purify every
portion of the system, the great Majority 'of the
medical faculty of New York think of using no
other purgative medicines in thescdiseases; and the
certificates of the,se gentlemen have been so numer

in warranting a 'cure when his pills are taken ac
cording to directions. Furthermore, to show his
confidence, he will return the money paid :for his
pills in all cases where they do net give entire sat
isfaction. Unlike all other medcines, Clickener'S

The author in his preface states, "' bask calculated
to impart to our youth a full and accurate knowledge
or their own State, has`long been deemed necessary.
Whether this will-supply the want, experience alone
can determine. The counties are not treated in al
phabetical order, but in classes, according- to their
form of surface, productions, and historical relationS:
To carry out the design, a small State map, in 'addi
tion to the several county maps, has been construct
ed, with the clasSes of counties marked upon it."
