buss DEMOCRATS wilrdo well to remem
ber that BiAra was a Know Nothing in
1854, and that in a speech in St. Louis, two
years, since, he told the "Finnegans," as Ile
insultingly, called them, "to go along to

along without them."
A SEIIIOIIIi AND BEMs CLUB in Lou!.
Elena recently adopted and published the
.following :
"Whereas, it has become the settled policy
of the Democracy of this State, not to pre env

This admirably illustrates Democratic love
for the poor man. We printed, a few days

NEW YORK POLITICIANS.
The New York Commercial Advertiser
announces that "upwatds seven hundred
illegal naturalization-Jiapers, have been is
sued under the kinction of the County Judge
and County Clerk," and adds that "the
county Republican Committee are about to
appoint a special committee to watch the
matter." That is the way things are done
in New York. After the opposition have
completed their arrangements to poll hun
dreds and' thousands of illegal votes, the
''Republican Committee are about" to do
something is the premises. After the horse
is stolen; they put a better lock on the door.
They are ever "about" to do something
after it is -
lop_ late to remedy the mischief.
`it is this sort management, tardy, shift
less and not worth a row of pins, which
halts and ~'shambles along impotently
in the rear of daring and successful
scoundrelism, which has made Republican
ism, Law and the Parity of the Suffrage a
by-word and a mockery in that city, enabling
an audacious and unscrupuloter opposition
to multiply their fraudulent majorities at
discretion, imperilling the safety not only of
the State, but of the Union. Let tui call
things by their right names, and speak the
truth while it is not too late. This Presi
dential contest hinges, if at all, not upon the
vote of Maine, or Ohio, or Peansyliania.
but upon that, of one great city which,
in turn, is' to be made decistve of Its
State, and thereby of the union. We
can take care of the other States, and 'the
Republicans of New York can take care of
that State outside of the city. Butit is pre
cisely this sort of scoundrelism there,—
which ourfriends are forever "about" doing
something to check-which .is 'relied' upon
to elect SEYMOUR and BLAIR. The ineffici
ency of the Republicans of that city is sim
ply disgraceful. It adds'to the toad to be
carried by their friends elsewhere, and con
tributes neat to nothing to the achievement
of a victory. A little reconstruction in that
latitude would not be amiss.
LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC.
. . ,
.The friends of the . Union in Maine have
crowned a protracted and exhausting strug
gle with a triumph unmatched for its glory
and. decisive in its results. On a total Poll
of 128,000 votes, being
. 10,000 more than
ever before cast in that State, their majority
for the Republican Union ticket was not
less than twenty-two thoueand yesterday,
doubling their last 'year's majority, and
will easily swell to over thirty thouaand for
Grant and Peamin November.
Let no man believe that the Democracy—
the party of RevolutionL•the party which
would obliterate the honorable records, with
the honorable obligaticns, of one rebellion
cruelied—the party which would over
throw with arms our Constitution and
Laws, as it would trample under foot the
triumphs which Freedom has alrea4 won,
the Equal Rights ;of white men, as
well as those of the once oppressed
and enslaved—that this party, with
its impudent menace of a new Re
bellion in behalf of a cause not only
Lost, but Damned by the consent of all
Christendom, has suffered the free people
of Maine to pronounce yesterday's emphatic
verdictwithout the most desperate efforts to
avert the condemnation. The broad Union,
in all this canvass, will present no battle'
ground more stoutly, contested than has
been this remote corner of the Republic.
Men, money, arguments, oratory, sedue:
lions and menaces have been showered like'
water-upon that field. The Democracy
have exhausted their last resource to stem
the swelling tide of popular indignation; to
obscure the true issues of the canvass, to,
sap the fidelity and to bribe the honest judg
ments of its people. 'More than these des
,
perste and despairing politicians haVe done,
'to avert the impending 'sentence Which
Maine now. pronounces in the name of
the Republic, could not be done by
mortal men. They have failed. Her people
are neither to be hoodwinked by the special
pleading which defends a second rebellion
under cover of assaults upon the legitimate
consequences of their first enormous erime
against the National Life, nor have they
been seduced by the corrupt blandishments
of a Dishonest Escape from their Just En
gagements. The freemen of Maine wash
their _hands of SEYMOUR and Bum with
Anarchy and Civil War, as well as of PEN
DLETON and his theory of Financial Repu
diaticni. The Lost Cause shall - not be won
again by their consent, nor shall the Cause
once Triumphant, the Ouse of Peace, of
Order, of Law, of a newly-horn and Perfect
Freedom, be itself in turn defeated now,
while their ballots can save it—
Alone of all the New England States, the
Democracy of Maine have accepted and
maintained to their fullest extent the ehal
ow of Prainizron. His personal
explanation of his peculiarll New Way to
Pay Old Debts has failed to commend it to ,
the approval of that people. They see
plainly that the lamb Ain covers the old
, .
gray rebel wolf, and yesterday's , ballots, ef
-fective as bullets, have gone clear 'through
the traitor's disgulie and reached the rebel
First Vermont, then Mains ; with their
loyal sisters far away toward the Pacific.
And then shall come our own Pennsylva
nia. Men and brethren, shall we shut our
eyes and stop our ears and lay heedlessly
on our arms, or shall the old Keystone blaze
with our loyal watchfires and hold glori
ously its post as the impregnable centre of
the Union host, beating back the demoral
ized rebels, and bearing the dear, old Flag
high over the smoke of the battle to a Final -
Victor3r and Perpetual rime ? You will
-
soon ( answer, and neither Maine nor Ver
mont will then be'asluimed of you;
FLING OUT TOUR 13 4NNERI3!
As the 24th of September Convention 1s
near at hand, our friends would do well to
prepare their banners, streamers and flags
to hang out on that occasion. There is now
every prospect that we shall have a grand
outpouring of the people at that time, and
the Republicans of Pittsburgh and Alle
gheny owe it to their reputation for devo
tion to the good cause to greet the crowds
with a splendid display of bunting. Let
every Republican, Manufacturer, Merchant
or Storekeeper, and every Republican house
holder get ready a flag, streamer, or some
other token of welcome, and spread it to the
breeze, from their warehouses, stores and
residences. We want to see our thorough
fares as :gay as a festival, at that time, and
as nearly everybody will soon be busy in
getting ready, the earlier every one goes to
work' at it the better.
IN'Tur, brief period of two years, the War
Department has paid nearly 000,000,000
bounty claims, disbursing in their payment
$06,875,882.50, in sum ranging front 'll5O to
$lOO and $2OO, at a cost to the government Of
less thane $1 per claim, including the pay of
officers, clerks, rent of offices, cost of fuel,
and all others of every character. The im
mense labor expended in the settlement of
these claims, the public may estimate not
merely from the large amounts disbursed
in such small sums, but froni the fact that
each claim, after being received and re
ferred, had to be recorded, and the military
history of each individual soldier bad to be
traced to ascertain whether he was entitled
to the bounty or not.

NEW PUBLIb4kIIOIi.
A PICTURE OF, THE DESOLATED STATES ;
AND . TITE WORK OF RESTORATION-18G5
-1888:. By. J. T: - Trowbridge, author of
"Neighbor Jack," etc. Published by L.
Stebbins, Etat.; ford, Connecticut.
This work is prepared in a style which
ought to make it popular among the masses,
and for the veinal:l'e information'of the late
i
war which t contains. The writer has used
greater care, too, in its preparation, than is
(usually the case with works of this character.
All the noted battle-grounds were visited by
the anther, at the close of the_war, and the
discriptions anft - facts embodied, - are either
the result of personal observation, or -ob
tained from responsible sources. The author
seems to have had only in view the simple
truth, and has therefore sought to avoid the
Coloring of facts, which he had gleaned du
ring his visits to the South. The volume is
also an excellent one fur campaign purposes,
inasmuch as the question of reconstruction
is treated at great length, in which is shown
the condition of the Southern States, after
the - war, the attempts of President Johnson
to recognize them, and the different steps of
t,,
t e Congressional plan of reconstruction,
e action of the several Southern States in
r lation to their new Constitution, and en
'account of the war between the Priiident
and Congress. Brief but excellent accounts
of the leading events in the lives of" Grant
and Colfax, are also given. It will doubtless
have a wide sale. The work is sold by sub
scription. Persons wanting an agency will
address L. Stebbins, Hartford, Connecticut.
NOTES, CRITICAL, EXPLANATORY AND
PRACTICAL, OF THE BOOK OF PSALM.
By Albert Barnes. Published by Harper
ct Brothers, New York. For sale by W.
A. Glldenfenny, Pittsburgh.
. Few commentators have found such gen- ,
eral fervor, frOm the public, as Mr. Barnes,
mainly because _he has sought to simplify
the truth an render 'kip to the student of,
Abe, Sacred - Word. Any diffuseness that
may appear at thnes,"inhis "Notes'," should
be' viewed as ,s, desire upon the part of the
venerable author to give a clear conception
of the part under consideration. The honest
candor of Mr. Barnes is prominently seen
in this volume, and which, indeed, is true
of all his writings. We are not surprised, in
view of the popular features of this deserv
edly popular work, that over a million'
copies of his (previous commentaries have
been sold. This is the first of three vol
umes.

Dorrit is full of touching incidents, and
the characters are drawn with a muter
hand. The story, too, has traits which ren:
der this volume among the most popular of
his works. It is beautifully illustrated,
which adds much to its attractiveness.

inality of conception,' admirable plot sad

POLITICAL.
Meeting at. Library.
The Republicans of Snowden township
held a large and unusually interesting
meeting at Library, in that township, on
Saturday afternoon. A platform for the
aocomodation of the speakers had been
erected on the North side of the church,
and seats sulThient for a thousand persons
were arranged in 'front of the platform in
the shade of the church: An excellent band
of martial 'music was,ih attendance, and
long before the hour for opening the meet.
ing the seats were all oecupled. Tbe meet
ing was one of the moat orderly that has
been held during the campaign, notwith
standing it was alive with enthusiasm.
The Republicans of Snowden township are
alive to the importanee•of the issues pend
ing in the contest and have resolved tagive
Gen. Negley and the entire State and

than it has been the custom to give the old
veteran and people's favorite Gen. Moor
head. _
At' two o'clock the meeting was organ
ized by calling Esquire Miller to preside.
Mr. Miller, on taking the chAr, thanked
the meeting for the honor conferred upon
him, and in an appropriate manner imro
duced H. H. McCormick, Esq., who ad=
dressed the meeting at considerable length.
Mr. McCormick, after a few preliminary
remarks, in which he definedhe points at
i
issue between the two parties I l a clear and
satisfactory manner, turned is attention
to the question of reconstruction, which he
thoroughly and ably discussed. He held
that the power of reconstructing the'F3tatea
lately in rebellion . belonged alone'to the
loyal Congress, and that 'Congress alone
had the right to dictate the terms by which
ihey,should be admitted as bodies politic
nto the Union, thim which they had vol
untarily taken their departure and which
they bad attempted to destroy. '
His address, although occupying over an
hour, was listened to with marked atten
tion, by the vast audience, and was highly
applauded at the close.
The. Chairman then introduced General
Moorhead, who spoke for more than an
hour and a hail in his usual focible
manner.
The meeting then adjourned with three
cheers for Grant and Colfax, the State and
county ticket and the speakers.

Mr. Haines delivered a lengthy and very
able addro-s and was frequently applauded.
He reviewed with remarkable ability the
courses of the two parties during the past
,
eight years, and the character of the *min
who helped to make up those parties. The
respective candidates, the financial ques
tion, and the reconstruction tuea-ures also
received his careful attention, and the re
marks which he let fall on those subjects
were calculated and no doubt did make an
impression on the loyal voters present.
The Great Western Brass Band was in
attendance, having gone out from the- city
in a fonr-horse wagon, in whieh was alarge
and brilliant transparency suitably in
scribed. The band discoursed some very
excellent and lively music, which tended
