BEAD; THINK, AND ACT:
The hour for argumetit his almost passed,
bat we ,cannot 'refrain from asking theatten
lion of , each thoughtful toter to a few facts,
which he can bearwith him'to the polls on
Tuesday next, when be .'goes to discharge his
important and responsible duty- -
No impartiil man whorece - egnises the Dern
ocratic party as it is now .orgsnized, can
fail
to see that it is helplessly sbOrn of- power.—
It is held together, at all, only by subtle lead-•
ers, who are furious b:cause the iceptre of
power has departed .from them.. And those
leaderis of any. prominence, comparatively
few. in number, have irretrieVably lost the
confidence of the American peope. Those
leaders have betrayed the nation ignomini.
ously, arid that treachery will never be for;
gotten by the pcoplq. Pennsylvania furnish
es - a foicible example of the hollow-hearted-•
ness of these leaders, in the person of ex-
Governor Williani Bigler. A few years ago .
he traveled over this State, canvassing - for
the Executive chair; whicb the-citizens too
generously: gave, to him. De was lavish of
compliments to . the dear people-such derna'-
gongues caress only to betray, appealing to
their Sympathies as an uneducsded man who
hid risen by native:force - of character. Yes,.
he Was William Bigler, "the raf ! sman of the
Susquehanna"—one of the people whom they I
ought to love and honor! Well, what 4 - as
his, after career,? lie was first, made Gover
nor of the Cominonwealth, the interests of
which he did not comprehend. Next he was
made United States Senator, and in the'Sen- ,
-ate c.hamber became the cringing pielitical .
ally, cheek by jowl, of ilobert-Toon3bs, Wig
.fall,' Davis, 'and others of the secession crew,
a prime article of whose creed was and
is, that the honest working people of Penn
sylvania' who lifted William Dgler into
place and Power, are the "mudsills of acidic..
This'statesinan whose soul was in sym
pathy. (!)'with the-siurdy Pennsylvania pines
among which he had been nurtured—this
blatant man of the people: friend of the pea
plel.became the genial companion of a class,
of men who, he must have known, bitterly
despised honest, hard working eitiz.ni. Beau
tiful Demeicracy! •
It is'only the elTrontery.af ',Bi . b.;ler and..
many sin:filar men of his party, that - enables
them to look - true Pennsylvathins in the
so grossly. have the rrineiples and practices
of these partizan tricksters outraged the

Beware of the Lying ,Handbills bf
Hughes, Randall and Cuipany.---
The 'situation of F. W. Hughes,
.Randall
and Company is;evidently growing desperate.
When Rtridall 'found that his Chanceslorit s
nomination. against Judge .Reilly , before
thel - Jen:tacratic Convention were getting
smaller and smaller, he gets his particular
friend Hughes to excite opposition to Judge
Reilly by denouncing him in a series of public
speeches as the Reading, Railroad Muadinate,
and claiming_ Randall as the
candidate. - - As these meetings were called
irrmpective of party, many well-Meaning
people were deceived and misled. They
really
_supposed that now . 'a new railroad
was going to be built. It was somewhat
suspiciew that Mr. Hughes ahould hays .
called these meetings just before the Demo
cratic Convention, after Laving been silent
so long before, and having. failed to attend
before the Railroad Inves'igation ComMittee
when in session in. Pottsville. Mr. Hughes's
political dodge succeeded. He stabbed , an
old friendly fastening, upon him (unjnstly it
is tine,) the cry of '"matl dog," and had
Randall nominated as' an Asrr aiustoAn
'Casnrnxist God save the markt Of .course"
any one who knew the difference 'in charac
ter between the two men, knew tiiat. Mr.
Hughes could not be honest in his method
of electioneering against Judge Reilly. What
private '
ends Hughes may have had to
gain by such a course we cane only conjed
tore. It may have been a stock speculation
--it may have been .a good fee—lt may have
been a vision of a United• States Senatorship_
lontning up. in the dim distanee—it . may have
been a ,desire to become a member of the '
celebrate - 1 Harrisburg "Ring" o;•which Mr.
Randall is a full member, and which sells the
legislation of the Ctimmonwealth for a con
sideration—it may have'beenlOr the purpose
or. "pinching - a Railroad Company. We
can suPposeanything bat an honorable mo
tive on his part few his course. As it is, we
have always regarded his course not only as
dishonorable and dishonest, but as calculated
to injure and destroy the very object he pro
fesses with such loud protestations to have so
.Much at heart.
We have heard nothing about new Rail:,
road projects in. opposition to the Reading ,
Railroad Company since the Democratic Con
vention, until within a few days. So long as
Mr. Rapdall's election was 'considered cer
tain we heard nothing from Mr. Hughes and
his satellites. Rut things have changed.--
Randall's chances are getting small - by de.
greys and beautifully less. Messrs. Hugh,
Randall and Company are again getting des_-
perste. The old political dodge must-again
be resorted to, and-Mr. Cleaver. must now
be denounced. as, the. Railroad candidate.—
Lying handbills are being posted over the
County, to the effect that Mr. Cleaver re_
fined to preside at an anti Rail Road meeting
in theTorough.of Ashland, and that he.was,
in the interest of the Railroad Company.—
Lying appears to be a Democratic accost.
plishment, and the leaderi. of the party seem
to atop at nothing to gain. their base ends.
Mr. Cleaver'did riot:preside at the .Ashland
meeting, because he was in attendance upon
his mother,. who.was lying at the point of.
death, and has since . died: It would have
been a good reason to deal* if Mr. Cleaver
had refused,because he did not wish to be
party to one of Mr. Hughes' political dodges:
Mr. Cleaver is an honorable man, and could
not, become a party to such a salient&
At a subsequent meeting held in . that 13o
rough Mr. cleaver tt.'need to take as much
stock in:any new :Railroad in proportion to
his means,' as any man there dared to take.
- Messrs. Hughes and Randall's dodge is by.
this . thne, pretty well played out. The peo
ple understand them, and the only thing they
are puzzled about is as to the motives that
'prompt these dark, slanders, and the ulterior •
ends that Mr. Hughes has view..
We ale surmised that a candidate so vul
nerable as Mr. Itindall; ahould permit any of
his friends to'make these personal attacks on
Mr. Cleaver. Mr: It mdall an anti-Railroad
candidate, forsooth Is it not notorious that
Mr Randall is owned by the Pennsylvania
Central, and that alibis votes are in its in
terests? : He voted'even against a free rail
rood law, until it was 'so amended by the.
Central' Road as
_t° be worthless. Dbes any
one F uppose that. it would be impossible for
the Reading. Railroad Company to attach Mr.
Randall to . its. ihterests ? e If their_ do; they
"don't know their man."
Mr. Randall has - repeatedly said in the
. .
hearing of Demo Crate and 'Republicans that
his nomination cost him the neighboitiood
OC TkN TIIOUSAND DOLLARS, Hewill not deny .
it.;, .ilis salary if elected, Would -amount 'only
to dhreedhousand dollars, and it is very a dill':

way. he is willing' to pay. SEVEN

PLAIN FACTS : FOR 'TAX-PAYRREI:
It should be'borne is mind by every tax-,
payer of the Nation that the'enormous burden
of debt under 'which the country is
_stagger='
Mg, was fixed 'upon it by a rebellion inangn-
ilted, fostered and strengthened by the Dem
ocratic party.
It should be borne in mind that this debt
was enormously .increased' by the aid and
comfort giVen to the rebellion whi!e in pro
gress, .by .the Democratic party, whereby the
rehels w.ere . encourriged to prolong the atrug_
gle . against the Union armies, after all other
reasonable holie of success had been extin-
.
It should be borne in mind thatthe debt of
the Natipn was still further increased
. by the.
efforts of the Democratic . party - tO cripple and
destrpfthe publicscredit, in the midst of the
struggle for national , existence, and 'that the
national bonds were thereby:forced to heavi
discount in contracting, loans, with which to
carryon the war, and the national currency
was thus largely redueed. below its true.'iralue
.
in gold, thereby adding enormously to the
coat of all material purchased'for the nee of
the ovemment.
It °should be home in•mind • by:every tax,
payer cf the Naiion, that the Demderatiepar•
,ty stands pledged to , secure compensation to
the slaveholdiug rebels for every slave. set
free by the; kmancipation Proclamation and
Crastitutional Amendment', finis adding an .
immense. and urjast burden to the already
onerous taxation under — which the country
It should be borne in. mind; -that - all the
Democratic members in the. House of the
Portieth Congress; haie'placed . themselves
upon record by their votes, in favor of the
monstrous proposition that the National goir
erhment is liable, under the RecorisiniP9on•
,laws, for everY dollar of the StateAebte of till
the States iri rebellion.
It ahould be borne in.niind by. •.eyery tax. ,
payer, that the Dernocratic party, through its
orators and writers for the press, is commit
ted tri the 'unheard of propositign that the.
Confederate war.debt, contractei iii the ird,
quitous struggle' to overthrow the National
GovCroment, is justly chargeable against the_
Government, and that this party - only, waits
the success of :its insidious attempts to regain .
power, to fasten thlidebt upon. the people_ of
the:United States. . . • -
. It should be borne in - mind by every tax
payer, that the Democratic party has made
persistentand mrentioua efforts to injure both
public and private . credit, and . bring on a
financial crisis, such.as,Will make it impOssi:
blc for: the Nation to Meet its obligatiOns
promptly, 'thus carrying wide spread ruin
throughout:the country,.and reducing to beg
gary thousands of . widoWs and orphans.' and
other worthy - persons whose iittle.all
vested in governmentbonds,lorthe redemp
tion of which the faith, of'- the, Nation - is
pledged. - • . _
It sltOuld he borne in mind by every - tax
payer, that the-Democratic party persistently
opposes every effort made to lighted. the pub
lic burden, by levying duties . upon . foreign
imports, thus requiring foreign capitalists and
traders who'have the benefit - of our markets
to bear a small share of-our burden'inreturn,:
and at the same time - prOtect our home Manu
facturers from - the deadly competition of for
eign capitalists who grow fat upon the pro-
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 Pemobratic party openly,avow
that their .- hOpe for the success of that party
lies only in financial. disaster to the country,
whether` caused by failure of Crops, by llie
discredhing . of the national currency, by pre
venting the . NatiOn from meeting its oblige
tions,..orhowever . resulting.' _ -
Keep these facts in remembrance: when you

among the Israelites from the beginning of., the
world, and.aiwaYs commences on'the first day of
a. lunar month: The first two. days of the new
year are kept as holidays, and. constitute what is
known as the Festival of thii:New Year.. 'During
this time the synagogins aredecorated with sym
bols of gladness and rejoicing, and the people as—.
Semble to listen to the prayers and witness the.
.ceremonies laid doWn in-the particular ritual for.

the great, festivals en which - the whole male 'top

amongthe religious' holidays. It. is one; of the
traditions of the Talmnd that on the first day of
the new - year the Creator inscribes the names of
the confirmed just in the Book of Life, and those
of . the -contirmtid wicked in the Boek.of. Death;
while the fate ~of such persens' as are neither
wholly good nor very bad is Undecided until the
Day 'of Atonement, when, if they •have 'neglected
to expiate their sins and shortconaings by strictly.
complying with the. requirements of the law; their
names are also written down - in• the -- Book of
Death: • The chief peculiarity; which is...Uniforinr.

festival, is the blowing of the ram's horn, as com
manded in .Levitiecui, and the hearing of which is
obligatory en - every Jew. It is regarded as ha.v

ces of the day, inasmuch' as it proclaims the Day
of Judgrnent . and awakens alarm in-the Sinner for
his sins, and a-desire to Make his peace with his
.Creater,'while at the same time it renders thanks
for past mercies. The Festival of the New Year
• begins what is known as the, ten penitential days,
which 'are succeeded : immediately by the Day of
Atonement. • An interval of live - days then occurs,
