a most happy effect, both upon teachers

Gen. Frank Blair, Democratic candi
date for the Vice-Presidency, has found
on echo of his revolutionary declarations
in r.x senator George 11. l'ugh ol Ohio.
Professing to be an ardent admirer of the
Constitution, as all Democrats are, 31 r
1 ugh m a recent speech declared that
the Fourteenth Article, lately proclaimed
10 De aaoptea bj Mt. teeward, is fraud ul-
em ana voia. "l would not give them a
three-cent postage stamp," says Mr. Pugh,
for their Fourteenth Amendment. It
is not part of the Constitution aud it nev
er will be. It i3 a base fraud, aud I say,
as Frank Blair said, those carpet-ba"
governments must be overthrown."
Blair and Pugh thus give fair notice that
they mean to destroy the Constitution in
the event of Democratic success at the
elections.
Nay-Aug.
The invitation to Nay-Aug Hose and
Engine Company, to visit Stroudsburg on
Tuesday next next, having been accepted,
a couple ot cars have been engaged for
the occasion, one for the members and
one for the apparatus. It is expected
that about fifty will attend. Scranfm
Jtepublican.
Southern Democratic papers, as well
as their Xorthean brothers are alarmed
at the speeches of Hampton and his tribe.
Ihe Charleston Courier says "think the
truth but speak it softly." It can't be
done gentlemen, You've shown the dag
ger iu your sleeve aud you cau't recall
the picture.
The Democratic Convention. i
The annual Convention of the Democracy,
was held at the Court House, in this borough,
on Saturday hist. James Place, of Middle
Smilhikld, and whose Democracy is of the "ml
hot," or Brick Fomroy, order, was nominated
for Assembly on the first ballot. Congression
al Canfcrecs were also appointed, and were in
structed to vote for the nomination of Samuel
S. Drcher, Esq.. a gentleman whose political
proclivities are of a cooler order, for Congress.
This hist act of the Convention, it is rumored,
sent our distinguished Senator on a hot-haste
Sabbath-day pilgrimmago to "Wayne and 1'ike,
where Con ferees' were yet to lc appointed.
The Senator, it is allodged labor to do justice
to Pike, and "is, at jur.-mf, engaged in an effort
to secure the re-nomination of that diminutive
tvne of Cicero. Daniel M. Vanauken. Of
course this is wholly a labor of love, on the
part of the Senator.
Mr. Coffec-.-tained "Wallace, Chairman of the
Democratic State Central Committee, was pre a-
sent at the Convention, and manipulated mos.t
successfully towards the nipping in the bud, of
one of the most beautiful rows that ever graced
a Democratic gathering. Mr. W., also lectured
the Democracy on the duties of the hour, and
insinuated, pretty broadly, that there was, this
fall, more than usual virtue in the good old
Democratic practice of voting 'early and often.'
By remembering this, and coupling with it
his newly Invented system of naturalization ami
colonization, he had no doubt the Democratic
vote, in this county could easily be swelled to
3,100. We dc not pretend to give the precise
language of the lecture, but merely an honest
inference drawn from what waa said. Mr,
Wallace may be a great man, hut the Demo
crats who heard him, on Saturday, did not ai
pear to find it out. His efforts here developed
the tolerable political trickster, but nothing
more. Our Democrats don't brag of him a bit ;
on the contrary numlcrs of them pronounce
him 'small potatoes, with very few in the hill
"Wc do not remember the time, before, when a
speaker of the Democratic persuasion was ::1
lowed to come and go, with so little enthusiasm
Iciiig expended cither upon the man or upon
his speech.
Since the Convention things Democratic
have about assumed their usual status. We
occasionally hear slight mutteriugs of pent-up
Democratic thunder growlings over the bane
ful results, and painful effects, of bribery, cor
ruption and fraud at the lH.legate Election
but we do not imagine that it will amount to
anything but muttering. It can hardly reach
the proportions of a political storm. At most,
if all charged be true, it is but a Democratic
skunk that is to be skinned, and we prefer
keeping our hands out of the muss.
"We do not doubt the perfect sincerity
of such men as Forrest, Wade Hampton,
I ollard aud bemmes in laboring for the
success of the Democratic candidates.
They honestly believe that in the election
of Seymour and Blair they will secure
what they fought for during the war, and
are candid enough to siy so. They are
outspoken enemies of our free Constitu
tion and the laws which have been passed
by a loyal Congress, and they mean to
overthrow both whenever they get the
opportunity. Their day cf triumph will
come with the election of Seymour and
Blair. Their ambitious and destructive
schemes will finally collapse with the suc
cess of Grant and Colfax.
We receive the alHitiing news that the
Hon. Secretary of the Navy docs not
mean to vote for Grant, but, like his
great commander the President, will cast
his ballot for Blair and Seymour. The
mournful announcement, however, was
not wholly unexpected. True as the
needle to the pole has Mr. "Welles awavs
been to the cardinal principle of his
career, namely, to think just what the
President thinks. It is told of Mr. Lin
coin that he used to congratulate himself
that, whatever differences might arise
in his Cabinet, he "could always make
"sure ot the support of the member from
Connecticut.
Senator Doolittle was an ardent Union
man during the war, and has a hundred
times eulogized the generalship, charac
ter, and services of Gen. Grant. Why,
men, is lie giving bis time and his Sena
torial frank to the circulation of Demo
cratic documents, containing the most
atrocious slanders and falsehoods about
Gen. Grant as a soldier and a public of
ficer! The fact that Mr. Doolittle is
chai rman of the Democratic Compression
al Committee furnishes no excuse for such
conduct in a man like him, possessed of
suca views as ne Las put on rocord.

The Democratic party demand equal
protection ior naturalized and native-born
citizens. The party is supreme in Texa s,
ana in some parishes of Eouisiana. Those
who would like a taste of the kind of pro
tection they give to either class, had bet-
ter spena a month in those parts. As no
policies would be taken on their lives by

The famous "Doctor," Peter Saylor,
residing near the Black Horse tavern, io
W llhams township, died a few days ago
and was buried yesterday. He had a
very extensive reputation as a pow wow
or witch doctor, and for a louS time had
a very extensive practice among the peo
ple of the vicinity, as well as those who
resided out of the State. He was about
sixty years of z-Ea$ton paper.

MISCELLANEOUS. I
Grant and Colfax meetings are held in
Philadelphia every night. The Ward
Clubs arc well organized aud working
earnestly for victory.
The sixth clause of the Democrat plat
form pledges it to a ''reform ot abuses."
Clearly a mistake. It must mean the "a
buse of reformers."
When the cold winds of the 3d of No
vember strike the resident of Utica, (you
take are,) a cry will go up similar to the
one raised by skedaddlers during the war
"stop the draft."
The Democracy want to have a chance
to deal with the finances of the country
Their last exploit in this line was in 18G1,
when they succeeded in borrowing money
at sixteen per ceut. interest.

Plain Facts for the People.
Somebody has grouped in six para
graphs a prefect refutation of about every
one of the numerous counts made against
the llepublicans by Democrats, The sta
tistics are from official sources, and are
incontrovertible.
I. The ordinary expenditures of the
Government for the present fiscal year
are only 102,S18,44G in paper whereas
ten years ago, on a gold basis, and before
the high prices, they were 870,000,
000 under the Democratic administration
of James Buchanan.
II. Since the war closed, in a period
of about three years, the public debt has
been reduced between $200,000,000 and
o00,000,000.
III. Tbe Thirty-ninth and Fortiet
Republican Congresses have removed
$101,00,0000 of taxes, that but fort his
action the people would be called upon to
pay.
IV. In three years the army has been
reduced from 1,005,516 men to about
40,000, and a proposition in now pcndm
for ;ta rcductiou to 25,000.
. The taxes removed have been a
from domestic industry, from cotton, from
agricultural products, from minerals, from
petroleum, and that the tax upon whiskey
75 per cent, and upo
tobacco 1. j per cent.
VI. Of the eleven States which wen
Into rebellion, eight have been restored to
tbcir old relations to the Union under
loyal governments, and arc now represen
ted in Congress.
A Western Republican paper remarks

ADDRESS TO THE NERVOUS AND
Debilitated, whose sufferings have been
protracted from hidden causes, aud whoso
cases require prompt treatment to render
existence desirable : If you are fcufi'erin,
or have suffered, from involuntary discharges,
what effect does it produce upon your gene
ral health! Do you leel weak, debilitated,
easily I ired! Docs a Jitile extra exertion
produce palpitation of the heart! Decs your
liver, or urinary organs, or your kidneys,
frequently get out of order ! Js your urine
sometimes thick, milky, or flocky, or is it
ropy on settling! Or does a thick ecura
riec to the topi Or is a sediment at the
bottom after it has stood awhile ? Do you
have spells of short breathing or d3-spepsia 1
Are your bowels constipated ! Do you have
spells of fainting, or rushes of blood to tho
head! Is your memory impaired! Is vour
mind constantly dwelling upon this subject?
lio you tcel dull, listles?, moping, tired cf
company, ot life: Do ycu wish to be left
alone, to get away from everybody! Does
any little thing make you start or jump ! Is
your sleep broken or resticss! Is thc lustre
ot vour eye as brilliant! The bloom on vour
cheek as bright! Do you enjoy yourself in
society as well ! Do you pursue your busi
ness with the same energy! Do you feel
as much confidence in yourself! Arc your
spirits dull and flagging, given to fits of
melancholy! If so, do no: lay it to your
liver or dyspepsia. Have you restless nights!
lour back weak, your knees weak, and havo
but little appetite, and you attribute this to
dyspepsia or liver-complaint !
Now, reader, self-abuse, venereal diseases
badly cured, and sexual excesses, are all
capable of producing a weakness of thc gen
erative organs. The organs of generation,
when in perfect health, make thc man. Did
you ever think lhat thoso bold, defiant, en
ergetic, persevering, successful business
men are always those whose generative or
gans are in perfect health! You never
tear no such men complain of bcinjr melan
choly, of nervousness, of palpitation of tho
ricart. They arc never alraid they cannot
succeed in business; they don't become end
and discouraged; they are always polite and,
pleasant in thc company ot ladies, and look-
you and them right in the face none of
your downcast looks or any other meanness
about them. I do not mean those who keep
the organs inflated by running to excess.
These will not only ruin their constitutions
lut nisu thoso they do business with or for.
How many men, from badly-cured dis
eases, from thc effects of self-abuse and ex
cesses, have brought about that state of
weakness in those organs that has reduced
the general system so much as to induce al
most every other disease idiocy, lunacy.
paralysis, spinal affections, suicide, and al
most every other form of disease which hu
manity is heir to, and the real cause of tho
trouble scarcely ever suspected, and fcavq
doctored for all but thc ri;ht one.
Diseases of those organs rcouire thc uso.
