THE Republicans of the XXth district,

cussing the election of a candidate for the
unexpired term of the late Mr. iiivaait.
A REPtrnmcax Mass s Meeting . will be

A special mos train will leave the Union
Depot at 12_ o'clock at noon., returning at

EX:SE6RETARY STLIVTON is l'at 'Steuben

t
appear at the Union meeting in litat place
to-day, "to take counsel with his former fel
low-citizens as to'the duties of the people in
view of the 'political eigencies involved in
the present Presidential csuvask"
A Di:mom/ma BasnEctrE, held at
Thompson's Station, Williamson county,
Tennessee, was attended by fifteen hundred
negroes. The orators for the occasion
frankly admitted that the result of the elec.
tion would be determined by the blacks,,,
and manifested the deepest solicitude to
have them vote with the Democrats. What
can be done -to save the Demrcrats from
sinking to an equality with the negroes ?
AMONG the latest accessions to the cause
of GRART . AND PEACE are JADES T. BRADY,
the distinguished Irish lawyeri.and Joan J.
(loco, Assistant sub-Treasurer, both of New
York.' The letter 'of Gen. Dix was ad
dressed to this latter gentleman, and by him
gi4n to the public. Mr. Cisco has always
been known as a Democratic leader, and
does not suffer materially by' the Copper
head accusation that he is a party to a "Rad
ical electioneeringdodge." -
Ti QuEEN oa i3'nl is so hard pressed
by the ineurgents that-she has offered to ab
dicate on condition that she shall name her
successor to the throne. Reduced to such
straits, it -is not probable her . offer will be
accepted, or that she will find 'means either
to retain the scepter or to enforce, terms. A
fine country and a noble people, cursed fdr
ages by a wretched dynasty, presents a de
plorable spectacle. It looks as if there was
- vitality enough lett to institute a better
:frame of government. The will to attempt
that object is in itself encouraging.
His enemies say that General GRANT
can't make a speech, that he has no - ca
pacity for statesmanship, and, that his ad
ministration will prove a failure. One very
prominent fact, however, disposes of these
- weak inventions. It is this, that of all the
great statesmen and orators whom the Re
public has produced, but one—Annewalt
LiwcpLN—has contributed to current poli
tics or to history so many remarkably con
cise and . comprehensive saying as are
to be found in the short letters of General
GRANT. Some of these are effectively used
in this canvass, and many more - would be
found well adapted for that puipose as
crystalized expressions of modesty, pa:xi
. 0115111 and practical wisdom.

INVINCIBLE ENTHUSIASM.
When morning broke over these sister
municipalities, yesterday, the clouds hung
heavy and dun. Soon rain began to fall.
It continued to pour all the afternoon
Nevertheless the various divisions of the
Grand\Procession began to form. Lociking
at the Tieather the meeting seemed to be a
complete" failure. Looking at the men a
deep impression was quickly_received that
the meeting would prove to be a success un
matched at any time in Western Pennsyl:
vania, and altogether unprecedented any
where considering the attending unpro
pitious circumstances. Delegation after
delegation came pouring in from the sur
roundilng districts, until the streets of both
•
cities and boroughs were filled with vehicles
- 1
'and men. ' • -
At twelve the Procession started, The
rain was:falling heavily, but the enthusiasm
of the, people was superior to the natural
obstacle. For threehours the steady stream
of the vast throng moved onward, cheer af
ter cheer rising and swelling along the line.
All this while there was not a moment's in-
termission of the storm. The rain appear
ed to' fall faster and faster. Drenched to the
skin, the men maintained the utmost good
humot, but would not forego the demonstra
tion that had been , appointed for that partic
ular day.
As fast as the delegations reached the Al•
legheny Common, where the stands for
speaking had been erected, they disperse&

to argument and appeal, was not to be
thought of. What was more, that vast mul.
titude had exhibited'a conviction, a determi
nation, an enthusisim, which made oratory
superfluous. Nothing could be more perti
nent, emphatic, convincing and suasory
than their self-imposed and cheerful endur
-1 --
of the pitiless rain.
Undoubtedly the Procession would have
- -
been much larger thin it-was had the weath
er been fair. Thousands had prepared to
• • •
takepart in it whose delicacy of health com
pelled them to refrain. So, too, the ensigns,
banners, mottoes, devices and trappings
would have presented a gayer appearance if
there had been no rain. But, no addition to
numbers, and no increase in the splendor of
the pageant, could have nroduced the effect,'
fully up to the moral sublime, of those thous
ands upon ilionsands of determined . men, en
countering the storm, and absolutely van-
quishing it.
If doubt can be iMag,lned to have existed
before as to what_ the men of Pittsburgh.
'and the surrounding district really felt and in
tend to do, no trace of it by any, conceivable
possibility now remains. The pouring rain
and the jubilant-march left not the faintest
thread of uncertainty. Allegheny will
equal and surpass her old and Lionorable
renown. Western Pennsylvania, on the
•
13th of October, will roll up larger majori
ties than ever before, and send her cheers
of victory over the Alleghenies to the sister
counties beyond with wilderdelight and a
nobler enthusiasm than was ever witnessed
in the past.
THE Indiana Republicans promisnls,ooo
majority in October, and 25,000 in Novem
ber; those of Ohio, 25,000 in October and.
30,000 in November; those of-Illinois 05,
000; those of, Missouri 20,000; those of Wis
consin from 15,000 to 25,000; and those of
lowa 40,000. These figures not only look'
well, but will be made good. .
Besides, from information received at
Washington, North Carolina, Alabama and
Louisiana ere ,now sure to give Repub
lican majorities. Florida, Biiiith Carolina;
and Arkansas have been certain all along.
Nor are hopes of carrying Georgia without'
foundation. Delaware, Oregon, New• Je
rsey and New,York remain to be contested.
In New Jersey it seems to be conceded that
Mr. .BLent, Republican, will be elected
Govemor, while the Democrats claim the
electors for SEYMOUR and Bunt. New
York Republicans think they see their, way
through to victory, and are working
,in a
manner entitling them to succes•s.

Kentucky with various politicians, says:
As a summary of what I saw and heard in
Kentucky, I can only say, that' if the people
over there mean anything at all by their
talk, they mean fight, and in the event of
a Democratic victory, will inaugurate it at
once. They seem to he desperate over the
loss of slavery and political power in the
nation, and they now feel like doing what
they did not in 1861, g6ing into the fight as

PITTSI3URGII iIAZETTE - :: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 25. 1808.
BUSINESS MEN INTEND.
When the leaders of the Denloenttleparty
took up the task of determinin i g upon what
pointS they would rest their chances in'the
presidential canvass now progressing, they
mid the needful discrimination delicate
and difficult. During the rebellion their
disloyalty was so conspicuous that they ne
cessktilY rested unifier a weight of odium
exceedingly damaging. It was politic, if
not indispensable, to avbid, topics that
should lead to a searching review of their
conduct Not that they ,had recanted any
of their pernicious ideas and intentions,
but simply wished to cover them from ob
servation. Beyond this, and in consistency
with their settled and traditional plan of
operations, it was held by them to be of the
utmost utility to devise a low and sordid ap
peal to the passions and prejudices of the
most ignorant and depraved classes of the
population. After deliberating maturely
they decided that a clamor against the hold
ers of government bonds would be as well
adapted to their genius and to the jealousies
and 'atreds of their followers as any thing
they could hit upon. In accordance with
then judgments they proceeded, and are
still acting. On• both hands they have,
doubtless, diScovered by this time that they
were mistaken.
However fickle the pOpular mind may be
reputed to' be by superficial observers, the
Democratic leaders must' now be convinced
that it has qualities of niarvellous retentive
ness, and that when it has been grievously
and persistently offended, it is terribly un
relenting, and will be satisfied only with the
most exhaustive expiations. In vain was
it that in their National Platform they
professed the most profound submission to
many of the grand reshlts wrought out by
the suppression of the revolt, thq abrogation
of Slavery and the condemnation, of Seces
sion included. Thee• men who stood by the
government through all the storm and tem
pest of the war would not believe in the
genuineness of their repentance or the sin
cerity of their declarations. They have and
are rigidly judged by the record they made
for themselves during the great struggle.
Indeed, their palpable affiliation with the
rebel chieftains, their fraternization with
them in the New York National Conven-
tion, and their 111-concealed partnership
with them in fresh enterprises against the
Union and Civil Liberty, drew down upon
them a fresh outpouring of patriotic displea
sure, which, under any circumstances, it
would have been impossible for them to
make head against. _
But their embarrassments were indefi
nitely increased by the issue they started on
the Bond Question. Their heated denun
ciations of the bondholders and' their
dissimulated commiseration of . the tax
payers, elicited rapturous applause from a
considerable class of citizens who iiay no
taxes, or next to none, and who never held
a bond and did not conceive it possible
that they ever should. This was natural.
In the pm-Slavery times something close
ly akin hereto was constantly-turning up all
over the Southern States. Men who never
owned a slave, and had not sufficient intel
lect and industry to get money enough
ahead to buy one, were loudest in vfluperat
ing the Abolitionists whom they charged
with 'conspiring "to steal oun SLAVES
FROM. vs." SO, this year, the. Democratic
leaders did not find it hard to get thousands
of men who paid no taxes, or next to none,
and would have to be entirely made over
again in their habits and capabilities before
they would save up enough to get into the
assessment rolls, to shout themselves hoarse
about the oppressive taxation the people
were compelled to endure; and this while
all the heavy tan-payers were showing no
discontent with the loads they - were carry
ing. But there was another and potential
class the Democt atic leaders had ,not suffi
ciently taken into the account; and this
class included most of the active business
men of the loyal States.
How were they,to be affected by a success
ful crusade against the honor of the "natiort
and the existing financial system. The re
denifition of the Bonds with Greenbacks in
evitably implies the breaking np of all the
National Banks, and, that involves a bout-,
dation of all credits obtained from those in
stitutions, and the creation of a new set of
financial instrumentalities throughout the
whole length and bfeadth ,of the country.
It was easy to set in motion a fnischieyous
agitation for, the accomplishment of this
end ; but they must have, been blind or de
mented whO conceived that the business
_men of - the Republic would sit down supine
ly, with their bands folded,
.and let this
scheme be consummated.
Unavoidably it, • would opena chasm
across the current of business affairs into
which at least one-half the individuals ac
tively engaged in manufacturing, mer
chandizing and commerce would be plunged
headlong,to come out again only through.the
door of Discharge in Bankruptcy: A hiatus
of thirty days in the present bank accommo
dittions would. produce this result. Busi
ness min see this, and are acting in
view of it.
This is viliat wek foresaw and predicted
from the beginnlng. We never participated
in the foolish fears entertained by some
Republiians as to the Greenback issue
raised by the Dernocrats. All along we
proclaimed that it , would be the ruin of
them, as it ought to be. There is an inhe
rent sense of - honor and justice in the
breastir of the people, and an appeal made
to them to engage in wholesale swindling
was foreordained to miscarry. But when
the personal selfishness of all the business
classes led them in the path of national
honesty, there was not the, slightest room
to doubt what the upshot of Greenback
dodge would be. It breaking the back
of the Democratic party just as fast as the
State elections are held. They dug - a pit
for their neighbors, and are falling -into it
themselves, and no earthly power can res
cue them, and the higher power will not.
This will be more clearly manifest to the
7 1
apprehension of 1 mititudes a month hence
than it is now. he decree of Fate against
the- Repudiators is already made up, and
judgment will - soon issue against them,
while Republicans from Blaine to California
will: join in welcoming the auspicious re
sult.
But, during the intervening days, busi
ness men must not relax their efforts. They
have the repcdiators on the down grade.
Let them increase their efforts to keep them
there, and to accelerate their headlong mo
tion. Remember that to this end one vote
in October is worth a dozen votes in No
vember. Be up an doing.
IT is wonderful a, d instructive to notice
how invariably, wit , n a man sets up for a
Democratic leader, I ow soon he comes to
distrust government by the people, and
throw out hints ()ea "master" over Con
gress. The latest speelmen is afforded by
Mr. EDGAR COWAN. In a late, speech at a
Democratic meeting be said: "Of one
thing I can assure a Radical Congress, that
GEN. GRAI , T will be able to be their master,
and I believe the masses of the Republican
Party,would be plased and delighted if he
treated them as a aster."
"The wish is father to the thought," that's
EL PROGRAMME
TIRE RE
The designs of, the copperhead Democra
cy North and Sduth, are frankly stated by
one of their most prominent organs, the
Louisville journal, in the following :
"Now - our opinion, an opinion as to the
rectitude of which we have not even a mo
ment's doubt, that the three States named,
Virginia," Mis3issippi and Texas, without
the slightest deference dr regard to the infa
monsly,partisan and unconstitutional legis
lation Of Congress, and without taking the
least account of the absence of enabling or
ders or paying any attention whatever to
threats issuing from under the shadow of
cocked hats and epaulettes, should,
on the day of the election of Presi
dential electors throughout the United
States, proceed to the election of elec
tors just as if there were no such things as
Congressional disabling law, a fierce hat, or
a shoulder strap. Let them elect their elec
tors, for we do not suppose that they need
be deterred from the exercise of that pre
' rogative by the fear of satraps and their
onets. Let them by all means elect their
electors and leave the consequences to the
people of the nation, themselves included.
We can assure them, that, if they shall elect
SeymOur and Blair electors, and if the
counting of the rotes of their electors would
give Seymour and Blair a majority in the
electoral college of the country, the votes of
their electors will be counted and Seymour
and Blair placed in the Presidency and Vice
Presidency, be the cost what it may. If we
will not' tight for our rights, we have no
right to have rights--or at any . rate to talk
about them."
The blnine Election
The annexed statements from the Port
land Press of the 21st have been beautifully
confirmed by the dispatchpubllshed yester
day, announcing 20,519 as the complete of
ficial majority and the Press says :
We give this morning returns from 417
cities, towns and plantations of the vote
for Governor on the 14th instant. These
returns are largely compiled from those
made by the respective town clerks to the
Secretary of State. The vote thrown is an
enormous one—the largest by nearly seven
thousand ever :given in this State. The
heaviest vote ever before thrown in this
State was that of 1800. when it counted up
to 124,000, This year it will be near 131,-
000. The aggregate vote of thq 417 towns
given this morning, excluding the few
iiscat
tering votes, is 129,830, of whit Governor
Chamberlain has 74,809, and M . Pillsbury
55,021; giving a majority for ov, Cham
berlain of 19,785, which will increased
to 20.000 by the few remaining returns to
eome in. The majority for Gov. Chamber
lain, in our opinion, will not vary five hun
dred either way from twenty thousand.
At the election in 1860, when the largest
vote was thrown that has been known In
the State, excepting that of this year, the
Republican majority was 15,921 In that
year nearly every voter was out, and while
the Republicans threw 70,030 votes - : - there
were 54,105 thrown against them, Com
pared with the vote of last year in the towns
given, the Republican gain is 7,772. This
is glory ' nough for the campaign thus far,
but we =hall do better for Grant and Colfax
by tho sands.
The Played Out Democracy.;
The poverty of the Democratic party will
probably make it expire before election day.
Mr. Seymoux has been trying to negotiate a
Democratic party loan on the house of
Rothschild, through August Belmont, the
same to be secured in United States bonds
in case of his, accession. If this desperate
proffer be not accepted, the entire Demo
cratic newspaper press will expire within
three weeks. The printers have not been
paid rum-money, and who can set up Dem
ocratic editorials without stimulants ? These
printers are not avaricious men, . and are
willing to work their fingers out to the bone
for the party, but they express themselves as
prepared to be hdrnmedindell 1(a German
word signifying reduced to saur kraut,)
if they will work sober. Said a foreman of
Philadelphia to g a venerable Democratic pro
prietor there tbgother day :
. "Mlich, the men want rum. They want
their little beer. They don't ask for no fat
matter. They don't say they're goifig to
strike. They don't want what you awe
'em! • If you'd offer it to 'em they wouldn't
accept of it. No, they wouldn't! They - too
honabul. But grog must be presented. It's
the immediate jewel 'of their souls. 'We
have to go so far back into antiquity when
we set your editOrials that our stummicks
fail !"
At this point confused voices were heard
coming down the blow-pipe from the print
er's lott: •
"Where's that hag? We're going to pawn
the composing-stones!"
Mr. Mulch flew to the pipe.
"I have it!" he said, "draw all the leads
and send 'em around to Melchezdiek's!
What in General Jackson do people want
spaced matter for when the country is in
danger? If necessary shove up the proof
roller! As a last resort, get a loan on all the
brevier and set up the entire sheet in
diamond!"
Mr: Mulch sat down to conclude his arti
cle upon what Mr. Calhoun had predicted in
- the memorable year of 1827.
A cry came down the pipe, dry and thirs
ty as a simoon in the autumn. woods :
"three cheers .for Seymour and Blair 1'"
So with the Democratic stump.,_ The or
ators are provided with the usual commis
sary ration of whisky and get on tolerably
well. But the rum-fund is totally inade
quate to raise a chegr. The Most that can
be got out of a Democratic audience this
year is the genuine rebel yell. That comes
,more naturally and expresses the sentiment
better.—G. A. T. Cleve. Leader.
IT Is said that white men cannot live in
the South unless the white man's grass is
sown. To cover the South with grass will
reduce negro wages to ten_ cents a day.
Alas I negro labor has made the hind so
poor that grass on most farms Will not grow,
Eight Hundred Miles Completed.
Another one hundred—mile post has been
reached on the Union Bacific Railroad; not
many times more can we repent this report,
which has comes t , ) us eight times within
two years past, before the whole line to the
Pacific ocean will be complete, and the long
est railroad in the world will be in success
ful operation. Less than ono year ago the
achievement of five hundred miles was made
the occasion for national congratulation that
half a thousand miles of the national rail
road bad been built; now three hundred
miles have been added, and the Indian.sum
mer days will see the tracklayers at or be
yond the point which marks nine hundred
miles. Such rapidity of construction un
paralleled in the ,history of railroading, has
not been attained at the expense of safe
ty or permanence, as is testified by the gov
ernment commissioners appohited to exam
ine and report upon the road, and by amul
titude of intelligent eye-witnesses of the con
dition and working of the road. The
Union Pacific railroad has been fre
quently referred to as a national
work. The extent of this nationality has
just been made strikingly manliest by a re—
port upon army transportation on the Plains,
recently made by the United States Quarter
matter General. From this report. it ap
pears that the price paid the railroad for
transportation of army freight is only about
one-fourth that paid for similar service by
wagonr. The amount paid the railroad in
1867, for such transportation, was about
$700,000, and the same amount of transpor
tation by wagons at the contract price for
that year, would have cost $2,625,536. In
other words, the saving to the Government
by. the railroad, in me year, with an ave
rage of 386 miles in operation, was almost
two million dollars. Gen. Sherman well
said that Government could better'afford to
build the road entirely at its own expense
thtin to have it remain unbuilt.
The Treasurer's report slums the ne earn
ings for the year ending June 30, 1868, to
have been over four million dollars. This,
of course, was on way business alone, and
gives only 'a hint of what the total ?raffle
will be when the road shall be complete.
Blair and the Platform
The World says
If there is anything in his Brodhead letter
nconsistent with the platform, he renounced
t in accepting the nomination.
Brick Pomeroy rejoins:
Frank Blair's letter is a part of the plat
form. Thank God, he is not a marble that
can wobble backward and forward from
platform to platform like a sick rat for toasted
cheese. He wrote that letter for two human
reasons:
First—He knew what he meant, and
wished the public to know, it, too.
Second —He desired a nomination, and
deemed that a good way to get it.
He,was right, it seems, that no man can
more heartily despise the journal that insid
iously opens the door for a dishonorable re
treat than he.
The Prosreet in California.
A private letter, received from Judge
Crane; of Alameda. California, in alluding
to the political situation in California,
says, "Politically, California looks brighter
and brighter, and you may count with great
safety on a rousing majority for Grant and
Colfax in the Golden State. , The Hon
Charles Clay, who was elected Democratic
Senator from Santa Clare County last fall,
has signified his adhesion to the Republican
platform, and he will vote and use his influ
ence for the election of Grant and Colfax.
—L. D. Porter of. Hartford, Conn.,has dis
appeared, leaving forged acceptances to the
amount of thirty thousand dollars in that

BAN SUMMER ENFEEBLED YOU!
Nine out of every ten to .wboin this question is
addressed, if they answer It. candidly. will answer
It In the affirmative. some may reply to it from a
sick bed; others, of a stronger constitution:and
greater powers of endurance, may only experience
a slight lassitude as the consequence of the torrid
season. Bat some portion of toe vitality of all hu
man beings oozes out of them under the pressure of
great and continuous heat, and the sooner the loss
it completely repaired, the less susceptible will the
system be to the unhealthy influence of the Fall
malaria. •
The most genial and wholesome tonic that has
ever been offered to -man—as a means, of recruiting,
his exhausted strength, and fortifying him against
the attacks of disease—is HOSTETTER'S STOM-
A , 'H BITTERS. Taken at this season it Is a per
feet safeguard against •intermivtent fever, bilious
affections, and all the epidemics which follow close
upon the expiration of the hummer. It is au invig-
Grant and alterative without any-of the drawbacks
which attach 'to mere stinatr ants, and is the only
Preparation of the kind which a conscientious phy
olden would feel inclined to prescribe for ladles in
delicate health. Nothing can be more pure, more
harmless, more certain to restore the vigor of tne
system permanently and thormighly, without-exci
ting the pulse or the hraln.
DISEASED LUNGS
There is no donut whatever that diseases of the
lungs, or ulcers of whatever sort, on any of the in
%crud organs may be and are frequently cured, and
a complete condition of health established. If the
elaborative functions, of which the stomach is the
primary and most important one, aro restored to a
condition to do the repairing of the human system,
ulcers or sores, wuether upon the lungs, the ilver,
the kidneys or the bowels, or upon the legs, as is
frequently the case, ean be mule to heal, and a
complete standard of health re-establisned. .
We have frequently seen these results from the
use of Dr. KEYSE LUNG CURE, a pleasant
and agiceab'e ut,.dicine, which will ripen up and
carry out the animal economy all effete and used np
material. Dr. KEYSER'S LUNG CURE is enrich
ed by some of the most valuable plants and herbs
known tope useful and, curative lit all deteriorated
states of the human blood, and whilst It adds to Its
plasma, Vat the same time stimulates, gently but
effectively, the skin, the kidneys, the liver and the
glandular systrm to sufficient action to enable the
body to take. on 'leak hfni action and eradicate the
disc ate. The ti , C , C and afflicted should bear in mind
the virtues of this great medicine, and if those who
are sufficiently alive to the importance of health,
will resort to it in the beginning of a coughs or cold:
there would be no tilling into declines and rapid
cunsemptiun so hopelessly Incur:ode, and so woo .
surely fatal. 'Let any we - *Muffed with any pulmo
nary disease try bit one butte, and t sy will be
convinced of the value of. Dr. Nevser's ming cure.
