UNDltit Gov. GEARY'S administration,
of lees than three years, the public debt
has been reduced by the 'sum of $4,209,-
387.14; and the Democrats are so displeas
ed they desire to thrust him out. A. de:
cided majority of the people, however,
think that he who has done so well, may
as well "keep his hand in."
pEatociwric newspapers insist that
Mr. PACKER is known all through the
Lehigh Valley as "the workingmen's
friend." Will they explain how it hap-
Toned that he came to be regarded in that
region, by the working people, as the
- very Jonah of evil, and was cast by
them into the canal for want of a conve-
nient sea?
THE Reading Eagle affirms that Mr.
Packer "worked for his money." If he
would only impart to the' men who work
for him the art of making one million
of dollars a year by "hard knocks," in.
stead of paying them two dollars a day,
he would become their benefactor. That,
indeed, is a trick multitudes would like
to learn.
WHEN Mr. Packer was in Congress he
gave very little attention to public busi
ness. During one session, which ex
tended
through two hundred and thirty
five wdiking days, he was in his seat
only flity-four days. But he drew tray
just as if he had been in attendance and
at work all the time. If any one of his
numerous workmen had been equally
negligent, he would not only have his
• pay reduced proßortionately. but have
been dismissed. Who knows that Mr.
Packer is more ready, now to perform
any public duties he may assume than he
was then?
A FEw days ago the GAZETTE refused
to publish a communication signed "RE- •
Founita," because it contained an unjusti
fiable assault upon the Republican party.
The document was then offered to the
Commercial, and by it declined. How
ever, the conductors of that journal
thought the matter over, concluded the
stab at the party was too good to be lost,
Bent for the manuscript, and printed it
yesterday morning, headed "advertise
ment," to convey the impression that it
was paid for, and hence the proprietors
should not be, held responsible. The
whole proceeding is characteristic.
SAM GALLOWAY. 4 ' l
It is not • necessary - to be a Buckeye to
know all 'about the qualifications as a
• political speaker, which familiarly belong
to tbis, gentlemen, so well known, both•
in and out of Ohio, by the above familiar
name.,` Hon. B.AliorEL GALLoway, of Co.
lumbus; is not only one of the most
effective political orators whom we have
ever heard, but he has been so esteemed
by the public confession, for more than a
quarter of a century. "Ohio -Republican
ibM has not a purer, an ableT, a morl
eloquent or a more widely,' honored
representative. That State . has Ixten
prolific of citizens who wefe at once If.
fectiye orators, astute politicians, and
upright., .. honorable gentlemen. Our
readers may judge `of Mr. Galloway's
' ralik It this clime; when Weitate they he
was, throughout the Administration of
LINCOLN, the confidential friend and
counsellor of that great President.
He speaks to our people at the City
Hall to-morrow night, when we predict
he will• take his audience by storm. We
beg any reader who hears him and is not
gratified and instructed thereby, to come
and tell ns so.
AND NOR, TO WORK:
Only seven days remain for work dur-
ing the present canvass. We urge upon
eveiy Republican the necessity of doing
within this short space all he can for the
success of the candidates. - Do not rely
upon the prevalent expectation of a signal
triumph. The omens are, indeed, full of
encouragement; but this fact hould only
stimulate to_ fresh exertions. - If it Shall
be accepted as - a reason for upineness,:
the consequences may prove disastxous.
But if it shall be received as an incen
tive to additional labor, there can be
no difficulty in deciding beforehand theft
GEAR*nnd WILLIAMS will be elected
and Republican • majorities in • bot
branches of the Legislature.
That there are local disaffections, here
and there, we do not attempt to conceal.
Personal animosities or ambitions will
make their presence felt except when a
profound excitement pervades the whole
country. But the local fende do not give
indications of damage to the larger in
terests. Here and there a minor candi
date may suffer; but on the whole, the
dissensions, such as they are, will rather
tend to strengthen the general interests
than to weaken. This will be seen after
the votes have been counted, notwith
aanding all averments of the Democratic
organs to the contrary.
We make these suggestions only to in
duce all our friends to omit no proper
efforts li tween now and next Tuesday to
secure a new lease of Republican ascend
encyn this commonwealth. It is of
a
high ment that the verdict \of the
S
peopl b rendered in terms so unquali

MO. , l iRCHIC DEMOC _
At \the opening of the winter session
of the Midl nd Institute, in Birmingham,
England, o the 29th of last month, Mr.
CamiEs pi SENS, the eminent novelist,
=de l a profe Edon of political faith so re
markable tha it was sent across the At
lantic\ by tel graph. It was in these
wads:
"My faith in the people governing is in
finitesimal, whi g my faith in the people
governed is illimitable."
What ia - pecttlar in this is not the mat.
ter, but the form. -:-It is the old doctrine
of mo ' archism, put into a condensed and
impres ive phraseology. It decides
against the possibility of maintaining an
upright nd dignified government in which
the mas es of the population are poten.
tial, and in favor of governmeht under
l i
which he masses are powerless.
-Europea populations are familiar with
this doctrme, having heard it through all
the centuries, and having had it practi.
cally enforced to their most serious detri
ment by emperors, kings and' sultans .
The repetition of it now by the distin.
gnished author, is owing to the develop ! •
1 ment of republican aspirations and ten
dencies among the people of Great
Br itain. It is the protest of a conspicuous
t individual against the liberalism that has
GILWSTOVE, MILL and Brawn for ex.
popents.
But this monarchical sentiment finds
WO and applause on this side of the At•
i . . is—not timid or covert endorsement,
bu sonorous and emphatic approval. Is
the: question asked, from what quarter?
W reply, from the precise quarter from
Which all men of experience and refiec
thin in this country would have expected
it-Ffrom the Philadelphia Age, the most
able and influential organ of what is called
by courtesy the Democratic party in this
Oommonwealth. These are its words:
" e most cheerfully recognize the doe
trin of the great English writer as soon)
Alp) nuE.'
This only confirms what we said some
days agia, that, the real Democratic leaders
of this State are by nature and habit in
tensely aristocratic, professing liberal
opinions only to delude their followers,
and ready whenever a favorable mo
ment shall come to overthrow popular
institutions, and set up others under
which the people shall, not do the
"overnmg," but shall be "governed"
a ording to the most stringent European
m del.
c l i
°thing is more certain than that
w erever a monairehy exists over an in.
telligent people there also exists, with
greater \ or less definiteaess, a conspiracy
for its subversion. This conspiracy will
be actidand • overt just in proportion as
surroun ing circumstances of the national
life shall be propitious or adverse thereto,
and as th personal characteristics of the
popular• lesders shall determine. So. too,
wherever government is bottomed en the
will of the people, a conspiracy exists for
its overthrow. The ambition of able
men becomes inflamed. At first they
long todo the "governing," and at last
they are eager"to incur all hazards to se
cure that privilege.
Thus it was that the late rebellion had
its origin. Other pretexts were, indeed,
put forward, to inflame popular passions;
but r jhey were all unreal, and known to
be 'so by those who resorted to them.
The actual leaders of the revolt, like
the Age, held the same opinion which
Mr. Dickens says he holds, and meant trioy
embody it in tie fiame`of a government
that should extend offer the North Ameri
can Continent. 'the conspirators were

not all South. The Democratic -leaders
in Pennsylvania sympathized with the
rebellion because they shared in the con
trolling sentiments and opinions of its
chiefs; because they were, as we lave
said, intensely aristocratic, and altogether
averse to any frame of gover,nment in
which the people are factors.
• The conspiracy against popular gov
ernment in this country is not. eatin•
guished, but only baffled. It is not likely
to flame out again during the lifetime of
the present generation; but in the pro.
gress of events it will come to a head
again. The bold declaration of the Age
is evidence of this, and the placidity with
which that declaration is received by the
Democratic masses Is evidence of the ex•
tent to which they have been corrupted.
NEW YORK COMPANIES IN PENN
In the Anthracite Counties,of this State
exist a number of transportation and min-
ing organizations, known as "New York
Companies." This designation distin
guishes them accurately from the other
organizations, which are distinctively
Pennsylvanian.
Some of the New York Companies
are conducted mainly under laws enacted
by the Legislature of that State, foothold
here having been obtained by assign
ments of local charters, or by such Leg
islative recognitions of their existence
within our borders as legally domesticates
their foreign franchises. Others of them
are conducted under charters granted by
our Legislature. Most of these charters
were authorized many years ago, when
comparatively little was understood as to
ultimate cost of canal or railway trans
portation, or as to the amount of coa
that would be demanded for consumption
Hence, these charteis contain many con
cessions that would now be deemed alto
gether inadmissible, because at variance
with the welfare of the Commonwealth.
Some of these corporations have lines
of communication running directly from
Pennsylvania into New York, while the
lines of others, after leaving Pennsyl
vania, enter New Jersey, whose territory
they traverse to tide-water at or near the
city of New. York. Probably all of these
companies have more or less stockholders
in this State. Most of them are con
strained by their charters to have a cer
tain proportion of Pennsylvanians in
their Boards of Directors, aid even to.
hold their elections here; but the capital
of all of them is mainly supplied from
New York,. and the virtual direction of
them is there.
M
These companies have shorter lines be;
tween the coal fields and Now York than
any of the strictly Pennsylvania organi-
zations, which constitutes an impor
tant advantage. But, what is of chief
moment in the present connection, is that
their profits are derived not so much from
the 'mining and . transportaticin of coal as
from merchandizing therein. At least,
they have a way of so managing affairs as
to make this appear to be the case in the
returns they make to the Auditor General,
and which become the foundation of tax
ation. This merchandizing in coal is
necessarily conducted in New York, the
profits obtained are mostly retained there,
and hence the difficulty of subjecting these
companies to a fair share of assessments
here.
Row to make these companies pay
their just proportion of the expenses of
the State has been a problem of serious
difficukty; and it is not yet entirely
solved. Laws have been framed spe
cially to meet this case,, and now con
siderable revenue is realized, reliev
ing our own citizens to that extent,
without injustice to the . parties that are
forced to pay.
The railway company of which Mr.
Asa Packer is President is one of these
New York organizations. Its interests
are not only in opposition to those of the
strictly Pennsylvania companies, but
also to the geneal interests bf the lcom
monwealth. In is special regard, what
.",
is for the interes of Mr. Packer's com
pany is for the welfare of all the New
York corporatio 4 s with which it is iden
tified. These organizations have steadily
c
e
resisted • the im osition of taxes upon
them, making c mmon cause whenever
attempts have ben made to compel them
to contribute thei due share to the public
burdens, and con sting every levy up to
the court of last r sort.
If thd Republic ns had nominated Mr.
,
J. Edgar Thorns ; n or Mr. Thomas A.
Scott, of the Penn lvania Railroad Com
pany, for Governor, there would have
been a general revolt. The feeling would
have been spontaneous and universal,
that however estim ble these gentlemen
ii
might be as citizene,\
or however proper
their elevation to many other posts, that
the gubernatorial chair was not compati
ble with their connection with the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company. MT. Pack
er's position is in no essential particular
different from this. Insome respects, it
is even worse. Re is at the head of a
powerful corporation, identified - fully
\
with New York, and consequently in
affiliation with all the other New YOrk
Companies. He is abont the last martin
the State, considering his business rela
tiona,'who ought to be elected Governor.
The more the voters reflect upon this
point, the greater will \its significance
and weight appear to them; and they will
reject the insidious proposition to place
the affairs of the Common - wealth in the
hands of an individnal who, whatever
may be his private virtues, is not prpof

THE DEMOCRATIC REVOLT.
A Rebellion in the Camp.
IN EDITOR TURNS STATE'S EVIDESCE.
A Faction of Debauched Thieves.
HOW PACKER IS PLUNDERED.
mpending Ruin cf the Party
A SCATHING DENUNCIATION.
The Altoona Vindicator, the able and
nfluential organ of the Blair county De-
mocracy, in Its issue for last Saturday,
October 2nd, prints in its most conspic
uous style, an indignant exposure of the
"miserable clique that controls Mr.
Packer andis State Committee." The
i
editor supp tted Packer in the Conven
tion, but is now "free to say that he made
a mistake." He draws an humiliating
picture of the candidate's lack of back
bone, and of his, weak subserviency to the
"debauched" faction which "runs" him,
and warns the Democracy of the disasters
to which these "trading politicians," now
rioting in "continuous debaucheries" at
his expense, are about to bring upon the
party.
These remarkable statements of a Dem
ocratic journalist should be read by every
citizen of. Pennsylvania this week.
We quote :
It is a fact which we desire to. impress
upon our readers, that a faction has
taken control of the Democratic organ
ization and the present campaign, who
are only fit to support the Republican
thieves now depleting the Treasury of
Pennsylvania. Some of them are cor
rupt and designing, and seek Democratic
success only as a stepping stone to plun
der and the filling of their own pockets,
at the expense of the honest, hard work
ing tax-payers of the Commonwealth.
They, have attained control of the party,
by the meanest of intrigues.
The Convention succeeded in getting
into the field a candidate for Governor,
who, honest in his impulses, seems to be
controlled by a cortupt clique who are
known to be trading potitictans of a very
low degree.
We ourselves had a voice in the Conven
tion which placed Mr. Packer in nomina
tion and contributed in no mean degree
to that result, believing at that time, that
our present nominee was the most avail
ble 'as well as the strongest In the State.
But from our knowledge and observation
of the workings of the miserable clique that
contras Mr. Packer and the Committee,
we are free to say, we believe we made a
mistake in the Convention.
Mr. Packer with his immense wealth,
looks on with perfect amazement, while
some of the men who flatter and swarm
around him are iliching away his sub
stance, to enrich themselves and defray
the expenses of their continuous debauch
eries. Let Mr. P. see to It !
Mr. Packer conceives that in answer
ing the demand of these leeches, he is
contributing to the cause of the Demo
cratic party, and to his own personal
advancement. Unles some bold man
tears the bandage from hie eyes, and
compels the change of his confidential
advisers, the 12th of October will tell a tale
of disaster and ruin to the Democracy,
Of the $75,000 dollars contributed,
scarcely li)10,000 is being applied to the
ends for which the contribution was
assigned—the balance is being drawn
out; am ongst whom?
We wish the Democracy of Pennsyl
vania to mark our prediction! Unless
there is a change in the management at
Philadelphia, the ticket is doomed to cer
tain defeat. Some of the men are pilot
ing the ship straight upon the rocks—
Mr Packer will he much the poorer, if
the Democracy of Pennsylvania will
have fought its last battle tinder its pre
sent name and organization.
THE DRIFT OF THE FINANCIAL
CURRENr.
We quote some remarks from the
money article of the New York Herald:
Some curious truths are deducible from
the events of the past week. The green
back currency, which is so derided by
one set of political theorists, was the sal
vation of the general trade of the coun
try. Had the circulating medium been
gold and silver the panic would have
ended in a grand crash of "all . interests.
Another fact is also evident—the country
is growing to specie payments, and will
reach that stage all the sooner if the cur
rency is not meddled with, or, if amend•
ed at all, made uniform. We are becom
lug so vast a country that we shall soon
need every dollar of paper now afloat.
Greenbacks are more vainable to-day
than they were a year ago. The best
proof of the fact lies in the depreciation ,
c i
in . gold to 1293; when the gold conspiracy'
is no more. Our currency has apprecia
ted as a purchasing vehicle far more than
the premium on gold sho s. Hence we
Mid that the latter tends t decline when
the great speculation of t e Gold Room
vanishes. Let anybody I kin the latter
place and see the tame and quiet which
rule since the Clearing House. has sirs -
pended, and brokers have to deliver the
actual gold, instead of doing so by tickets
at the Gold Bank. It was the vast spe
culation in gold which kept up the pre
mium. It was not worth 140, 150 or 160.
When it got among these figures gold
began to come this way from Europe.
Now that obstacles to speculation are oc
casioned by tee absence of a clearing
house, and while speculation is limited
to an amount not exceeding two or three
times thersum of gold obtainable through
out the city, the limit in this instance be
ing similarto the limit in speculation
upon any railway stock. the first ten
dency is to a decline, for the premium
will, li ke I water, surely find the level
which the relations of credit and com
merce give it.
To which it may lie answered that but
for the existence of large masses of de
predated paper currency, no such specu-
lation in gold as has been experienced,
could possibly have occurred. From the
nature of the case, speculations of this
geueral character will be repeated, with
greater or less strength, according to cir•
cumstances, so long as the paper cur
-1
rency in use shall be con derably below
par. Whenever gold an paper • money
shall become equal, beca e of the con
vertibility of the paper into coin at the
pleasure of he holder, a speculalien of the
magnitude of that recently brotight to a
head in 4ew York would be diertrons
to:all mercantile interests; but then such
a iiioedulition 41 - 4tnna be impotudble.
THE IiMSIONARY BOARD.
The American Board of Commissioners
for Foreign Missions will commence its
annual session to-day, sitting at the
Third Presbyterian Church. If a full
meeting, that is, up to the average of late
years, it is believed that nearly a thous
and members will be present, near
ly all them strangers_ to the
city. Very careful arrangements have
been made, by the local committee, for
the accommodation of this large number
of visitors, very many of whom will enjoy
the hospitality of our citizens, in private
houses as well as at the hotels. We hear
of one citizen who receives twenty at his
own house and assumes the expert;
ses of one hundred more to be
quarterqd at the Monongahela House.
The sessions are to continue for three
days, and will be closely occupied in the
transaction of the large regular business.
As usual, new gliestions of deep interest
to the religious' world, are also likely to
come under consideration. The GAZETTE
will have an ample report of , all the pro
ceedings.
MOOR TOPICS.
Now that the women have struggled
so long for their rights and at length
seem about to accomplish something, it
is time for the reformers to find some
new and more radical question. Why not
take up children's rights? We :have
made numerous laws for these minature
men and women which are constantly
broken and disregarded. Flagrant
breaches of some. of these , laws may
constantly be noticed on our streets.
For instance on the day of the procession
of the pupils of the Pablic Schools,
when the wind was searching, and the
temperature by no means mild, little
girls might have been seen with noth
ing but a thin while covering over their
necks and arms which were quite , blue
with cold. This sort of reckless absur
dity is generally attributed to fashion,
but just now the frickle dame does not
sanction any such exposure on the street.
Then again on Sunday we noticed a half
dozen fathers lifting their young chil
dren over gutters by one arm, and one
stern parent Jteld a two years old up by
one little limb, while he administered a
castigation long and loud. Snell things
being common is it any wonder that
consumption demands so many graves,
and distorted figures :meet our eyes at
every street corner? Surely, if the
leaders of reform are looking about for
some new cause to advocate, there is no
!more urgent or hopeless one now offer
' ed than this of the children.
BosroN has won the enviable reputa
tion of being the hub of the literary and
musical wheel of the great American
universe. The language in which Bos
tonians express their satisfaction at this
is said to be slightly Fourth-of-July-isia,
but if all who boast had so much foun
dation for the fabric they build up, for
giveness for the boasting would be.easy.
There are few cities in this country
where a musical festival of the magni
tude of the recent Peace Jubilee would
be possible; but'not content with the
glory then achieved, a prograMme has
been made out for the coming winter,
providing intellectual entertainment for
ten successive Monday evenings. There
are to be four debates between such men
as William R. Alger, Horace Greeley,
Geo. B. Loring, etc.• Four lectures will
be delivered by Wendell Phillips and
three other distinguished gentlemen.
Readings will be given by Mrs. Carter.
and Mrs. Ames. Solos will be sung by
nine prominent singers, and a grand in
strumental and vocal concert will be
given by Mr. Tourgee. Besides all this,
the entertainments; which are to take
place in Mnsic Hall, will be interspersed
with music on the great organ by four of
the leading organists of Boston. We
confess frankly that` we believe that
there is not another AlneriCan cityvhere
such a programme would have been con.
ceived, and probably no other where,
being conceived, success would be so
certain.
SOONER or later the universal thirst for
variety will bring us to using as articles
of food, almost everything which now
graces the tables of the green buttoned
mandarins, or tickles the palates of the
belles of Tetuan and Tahiti. We have
prejudicei now, but that is not saying
that we always must have them, while it
is very easy to imatzine a time when the
limited list of beef and mutton, varied
occasionally by mutton and beef, may
pall upon a hereditarily satiated palate.
In Paris we already see signs of this great
gastronomic revolution; horses are pro
nounced goon, rats are said to be gamey
and toothsome, cats, dogs, snails, frogs
and a few other minor articles are said
to be dainty additions to any bill of fare,.
and all these by actual civilized expert
eace. That the only objection to most
of these as articles of food is the merest
prejudice is evinced by the numerous in
stances where persons have been delight
ed with something very novel and deli
cate until they discovered it to be frog or
bare, whereupon all the luxury of the
viand has often vanished. There is no
enemy so hard to fight, so impregnably
armed or so unreasonably illogical as
Prejudice, and therefore this revolt
against hts authority, now begurkin Paris,
will require a long time and brave lead
ers before it makes much \'headvraY, bat
the time may yet come when it will no
longer be considered proper and decent
to throw away the greater part of the nat
ural food provided for us which cuetokn
now calls common and unciaan.
•
WE HEAR of quite a number of foun
tains among the new or soon to be ex
pected adornments of our cities. In Al.
legheny there is the tail jet in the Park
lake, the drinking twin_
sue
eh, the
North Common, and the MI6 founiiidn at
the northwestern corner of the Park.
We are also soon to have the Hrimbold'
and Temperance fountains. Probably
no other style of adornment could afford
so much pleasure to the eye and ear, for.
it would be hard to find anything more
lovely than the 'sparkling, splashing
waters, glittering iti the light of the sun
or moon, and rippling and murmuring
back into the basins. As temperance
agents, too, they are good things; if cups
are provided it will 1:4. easier for a man,
who is walking in theArounds, to get a
drink of good water than a horn of bad
whisky. Nor should kthe lower animals
be forgotten. There is, we believe, but
one public watering place for horses.in our
streets. In Philadelphia and other Eait
ern cities fountains have been built in
vations parts, convenient for the use of
men, horses and dogs.
WE are glad to see that the beautiful
smaller objects of natural ornament are
being appreciated. It is only a few years
since the handsome woods cf our native
forests began to be used for household
furniture. It is not a long time since
rustic brackets and picture frames were
scarcely to be found in any of eur dwel
lings, and now we learn that our beauti
ful autumn leaves are beginning to land
favor in the eyes of the people. Only a
few . days ago we read of the sensation'
created in a Parisian saloon by a young
American girl, whose head-dress and
frock -trimmings were for Med of the
frost-tinted leaves of the forests of her
native land. And we hear of a church
' festival, which is soon to be held' in this
city, where the decorations are to be com
posed of the i same Material. The novel
ty will be beautiful and 'successful, add
ing a charm which could not be found in
the ordinary tasteless wreaths and fes
toons of colored paper, which represent
a larger ()Utley of money.
A VIENNA paper says : "Bismarck's
disease, as the French papers said some
time ago, is simply delirium tremens. He
can not hold a pen in the morning, and
he has to take strong stimulants in order
to overcome his nervousness. He can
never makel a speech in Parliament with

LUNG-WORT. ,
One of the truest and - most suggestive ideas
can be obtained from the caption at the head
of this article; for of all diseases which impair
human health and shorten human life, none are
more prevalent than those which affect the lungs
and pulmonary tissues. Whether we regard lung
diseases in the light of a merely slight cough.
which is but.the forerunner of a more serious
malady. or as a deep lesion. corroding and dis
solving the pulmonary structure, it is always .
• pregnant with evil and foreboding -of disaster.
In no class , of maladies should the physician or 4
the friends and family of the patient be more
seriously forewarned than in those of the lungs, * ,
for it is in theni that early and eilielenttreat
ment is most desirable, and it is then that danger
can be warded, offand _ a cure effected . In DR.
KEYSER'S LING CURE you have, medicine -
of the greatest value in all these conditions. An
alterative, a tonic, a nutrient and resolvent,
succoring nature 'a nd sustaining the recupera
tive powers of the system, Its beautiful work
lugs, in harmony with the regular functions, can
be readily observed by the use of one or two bot
tles: it will soon break no the chain of morbid
sympathies that disturb the harmonious work,
ings of the animal economy. The harrasslng
cough, the paixtftd respiration, the sputum
streaked with blood, will soon give place to the
normal and proper workings of health anditior.
An aggregated experience of over thirty years
has enabled Dr. Keyser, in the compounding of
his LUNG CURE, to give l new hone to the con
sumptive invalid and at the Same time speedy
relief in those tow prevalest, catarrhal and
throat affections, so , distressing in their effects
and so almost certainly fatal In their tendencies,
unless cured by someapproprliste remedy. DR.
KEYSER'S LUNG CURE is so thorough and ef
dclent, that any one who has ever need it, will
never be without It in the horse. It will often
cure when everything else fails, and in simple
cases will cure oftentimes In a few days. •
