SUOur young friends Turner Palmer and

and the proprietors being clever, enterprising
young gentlemen, the business, in their hands,

Charles W. Dean, of Philadelphia, looking
"hale and hearty," "bobbing 'round" among
-our merchants, a week or so ago. Charley in
now in the Root and Shoe line, and is connect-
ed with one of the best houses in the city of
brotherly love. From what we can learn of
the purchases made through him, we judge that
his trip here was both a pleasant and profita
ble out pleasant to himself in the cordial
welcome be received from old friend", and pro
fitable to lib house in the large sale he made ;
.and not only so, but profitable as well to retail
purchasers hereabouts, for the house keeps noixa
but goods of the best quality to be disposed of!
at the lowest figures. Charley is always sure
cfa hearty welcome, and will never be at a

The Ticket
Reader, the ticket which every man who
truly loves his country should vote, on
Tuesday, u that headed :
Auditor General,
John F. Hsrtrnnft
Gen. Uartranfl served hu country faith
fully, ably and bravely from the commence
ment to the close of the war. For three years
he has had charge of the great accounting
department of the Commonwealth, and by
his watchfulness saved money to the Treasu
ry and was thus enabled to pay off several
millions ot the State debt. II is opponent.
Charles E. Boyle, was a Copperhead dnring
the war, and has nothing but this to recorn
mend him to the suffrages of the people.
What patriot desires to vote for such a man
as Charles E. Bojle!
The next man on the ticket, and a gentle
man most worthy of your earnest support, is
for
Surveyor General,
Jacob M. Campbell.
Gen. Campbell was also a soldier during
the whole term of the war, and left a record
for bratery which can never die. Since the
war he has had charge of your land records
at Harrisbarg. Out of the chaos which he
found, he culled order and system for the
department, and thus saved thousands to the
taxpayers, and added more than an hundred
fold to thesecuritv of vourland titles. His
opponent. Gen. Wellington II EnLwas a
soldier of fortune during the war, and fought
rebels for pay while his heart was with them
and their cause. Ought a true soldier, or
the friend of a soldier, to vote for him 1
Next on the ticket comes the candidate
for
Congress,
John Torrey.
Bccinse of over-age, Judge Torrey did
not enter the military service during the
war, but he contributed largely of his means
towards the fitting out of f olunteers, and the
support of their families while in the service
Born in Wayne county, he has grown up
with the growth of that end of the District
and no portion of the Commonwealth can
turn out a better business man, or a man bet
ter qualified to make a good Congresbman
His opponent, Daniel M. Vsnauken, is your
present mis-reprcrentative. Daniel has
teen at Washington for nearly two sessions
but no one would have known it, had it not
been for a patch-work speech of his, pub
lished in the Democratic papers of the dis
trict. Can any voter hesitate in his choice
between the men 1
Next, and the last we shall name, on the
ticket comes, for
Representative,
Jacob D. Laciar.
Capt. Laciar faithfully served out two en
listmerits during the war, and has honesty
capacity and a brilliant military record to
recommend him for the position. You at
know his opponent, James Place, and you
all know how much of a friend he was to
his country when his country needed a true
friend. Can you hesitate how to vote this
ticket.
Reader if you would fulfil your whole duty
faithfully, you must vote for Hartranft,
Campbell, Torrey and Laciar.
Horse Thieves About
The stable of Mr. Andrew F. Mixsell, in
Stroud township, near the Fair Grounds, was
entered on Tuesday night, Sept. 2th, and a
valuable Horse stolen. The Horse is described
as a "Dark Ray 7 years old, 14 hands high,
both hind feet white, star on the forehead, and
a small white spot on the right side, caused by
the rubbing of the saddle.
On the same night the Carriage House of
illiam S. Reese, Esq. in the same neighbor
hood, was entered and a falling top Wagon
and sett of pretty worn, Silver-plated Harness
stolen. Tlie wagon was made by Whitesell &
Sensenbach, Bethlehem, Ta. The Haines
was partly covered with patent leather, leather
fly net. One of the girths had a silver plated
buckle and the other a black buckle. Two
bridles were taken, one with the letters W. S
R. on the left blind, and the other bridle with
red piece across the forehead. It is pretty well
ascertained, that both Hore and Wagon were
stolen by the name thieves. One Hundred
Dollars reward is offered for the return of the
property, and the arrest and conviction of the
thieves.
JtSF" Friend Ruster, we perceive, has got fi
nally and firmly fixed in hi new quarters.'
He has, by all odds, the finest store-room in
town, and has everything about so arranged as
to make it a model of neatness, comfort and
convenience, as well for his customers as for
himself. Hi etock of goods, in its every
branch, was never so full and complete as now :
and we know we but tell the truth, when we
say that his shelves, tables and counters fair
ly groan under the weight of the bargains he
has spread out for the public. Everybody
should call end see Nicholas in his new quar
ters, lie will be pleased to show them a.
round.
Republicans the bullying process may be
attempted on you in some of the townships in
this County, in order to prevent your voting.
This has been done heretofore successfully, but
don't let it be done again on Tuesday. Go to
the polls and attend to your business peaceably,
and if any one interferes with you, take his
name and secure your witness, and as soon as
possible have him bound over to Gurt. One
or two examples made of the Democratic scal
awags who thus interfere with the rights of
their neighbors, will assure good, orderly and
quiet times at the elections io this County for
years to come.
Bend in the Returns.
Our friends throughout the county should
sec to it that the election returns of the sever
al townships are in town by Wednesday morn
ing next. A little enterprise, in this way, will
enable us to give full returns in our paper on
Thursday. We will, in all probability, have
the result in the State by Wednesday noon, or
evening at farthest, and it will look too bad if,
for want of a little spirit, Monroe county com
plete is not in the list.
The Democratic Meetings..
We owe an apology to our readers, for an
error we were led into last week, relative to the
meetings held at the Court House, on the af
ternoon and evening of the 28th ult. The
Democrat having announced meetings of its par
ty, both in its columns and in flaming hand
bills, to take place on that day, and two of the
speakers promised having harrangued the bun
dred or so who divided their time between the
Court House and the watermellon pedler's wa
gon, we, of course, believed Democratic meet
ings were held, and spoke of them as such, in
eluding the failure, which was lamentably ap
parent. As, however, the Danocmt was mum
about the meeting, and did'nt brag a bit about
it, did' lit even whistle to keep courage up over
it, we cannot avoid the conclusion that they
were not Democratic meetings, but some other
kind of meetings in which our neighbor took
no interest whatever. Our opinion as to their
Democracy, as expressed last week, must there
fore have been erroneous. That they were
Democratic we do not now say. If they really
were Democratic, our neighbor's proverbial en
tcrprise, aided by "our steam power press"
would, undoubtedly, have prompted him to
have told us so. Rut they were failures, and
after all ; but we will wait and sec what our
neighbor has to say about it this week. Per
haps we may learn something more about it.
. m
The way to make Converts.
The Democrats finding the converts from
Republicanism to Democracy so few and far
between, as not to afford them material for an
item more than once in a campaign, have taken
to manufacturing changes out of the whole cloth.
And they do it up nicsly too, selecting none
but the best men for the converts. In the
Milford Herald of last week, we find quite a
number of these Manufactured Changes, all
arranged in half a column of the paper, and
headed " Conversions to Democracy," A mong
the changes Republicans, and Democrats else
where than in Pike County, will u smilo" to
find tho following paraded :
Gen. John C. Fremont has declared
his intention of Toting for Seymour and
Blair.
Judge Bingham, until recently one of
the most influential radicals in Georgia
Ohio, has declared himself for Seymour
and lilair.
Ez-Gor. Curtin supports Seymour and
Blair. He says beymour saved bim and
Pennsylvania in 18G3, and he can't go
back on him now.
It is said that uovernor renton: o
New York, has declared his intention to
vote for Seymour and Blair.
As these gentlemen are all at thu time do
ing yeoman's service on the stump, some of
them in Pennsylvania, for Grant & Colfax
and have been for the success of these men
from tho beginning, we hardly kuow wheth
er to rank the editor of the Herald as a knave
or a fool. The Democracy of Pike must be
made of rather ttoft material to allow itself to
be imposed uin by such deliberate, wilful and
malicious lying as this.
Connecticut voted at her town elec
tions for town officers, on Monday last, and
in the result are heard muttering of Repub
lican thunder, most dismal to Democrats,
to burst forth on the 3d of November. Large
Republican gains were made in almost every
town, and had the election been a general in
stead of a local one, a brilliant Republican vic
tory would have been the result. Rut we can
wait. It is not long till November 3d, and a
victory which is so certain to come will be just
as acceptable then as now. Yermont has spo
ken, Maine has spoken, and Connecticut has
given us a hint of what she is going to
say. i'ennsylvanias to work, and see that on
Tuesday next you dont fall behind any of
these in your earnestness and your grand Re
publican majoriry.
The Democratic Caravan, with Judge De
Young as chief manager and equestrian di
rector, chairman Storm, as director of feats of
high agility on the Democratic Stump, Pro
fessor Drake, adept on the literary trappeze,
and Professor Dctrick as supernumerary, and
delineator of the beauties of conventional dis
appointments, started out on a tour of exhibi
Uon yesterday morning. We understand the
tour embraces the townships of Eldred, Ross,
Hamilton and Cbesnuthill, and, if the treasury
hold out, may be extended farther. The Bob
by Williams of the Company was compelled
reluctanty, by the demands u of our steam
press" to remain at home. There will be some
heavy blows made at truth ere the Company
gets home again.
Sunday School Pic Nic.
The Gilbertville, Broadheade, Effort and
Gregory Sabbath School, held a Pic Nic at
the Pleasant Valley Church in Chesnuthill
township, on Thursday last. Notwithstanding
the Btorm, the children turned out in large
numbers. The exercises consisted of speaking
at
singing, Ac Addresses were made by ltev,
Strouse in German, and the Rev. Becker in
English. The singing, was a fine feature of the
occasion, conducted by Prof. J. A. Clements,
who presided at the Melodeon with his usual
ability.
We have reason to believe
that extensive preparations
are being made by Democrat
ic leaders, to impose pasted Tickets UKn those
who desire to vote the Repubican Ticket.-
Look out for this contemptible species of fraud.
Examine your tickets and see that the names
of the Democratic candidates are not pasted
over those of the Republ lean's. Com pare y ou r
ticket with the one at the head of this paper.J
Ex-Sheriff Marsh has the new Shed, attach
ed to his Hotel, erected in place of the old
one destroyed by fire, fully com pled. The new
one is 78 by 34 feet, considerably larger than
the old shed, is covered with shite, aud is fitted
with all the modern improvements. The She
riff's enterprise, displayed in the rapid erec
tion of this convenience for his customers, is
truly commendable.
It is the duty of every Republican who
has a team, to hook up on Tuesday, and take
every Republican neighbor of his, who has no
team to the polls. If a Democrat desires to
ride along make room for bim too, and le
your conversation be such as to convince him
that he too ought U?vte as wll as ride with
you.

JQT Look out for Naturalization frauds.
Thousands of Naturalization papers have
been honestly issued by the Courts of
our Commonwealth. Be careful he
watchful and you need not be suprised
if io addition to these thousands of honest
papers, other thousands ofwCoffee stained"
documents meet your eye. Chief Cook
Wallace has set the pot a boiling without
doubt, and even the Protbonotary of the
Superme Court, is now receiving an over
hauling irotn tho Court lor the very
queer way he has of guarding the purity
of the ballot box. Republicans seo to it
that Democracy makes no capital out of a
repetition of its disgraceful tricks. Watch
every voter, and make every suspicious
one srivc such an account of himself as
will place his right to vote beyond a
Deradventure. Have every man who
a
makes an attempt at fraud arrested and
imprisoned, or bound over for his apper
ancc at Count at once.
SQT' Republicans, watch the polls close
ly on Tuesday guard them as you would
the apple of your eyes. Efforts at the
colonization of Democrats have already
been discovered; and numbers of Demo
critic voters, imported from Maryland
and other States where there is no voting
until in November, arc now confined in
the jails of the bordering Counties of the
State, and of Philadelphia, for aiming to
carry out this mean contemptible fraud
upon honest voters. Look out for all such
even in our own midst.
Republican voters be on tbe
ground early on Tuesday, vote as soon as
the polls are opened, and then go to work
and see how many votes you can make
for tbe good cause. Don't, however get
into the predicament of the man who
after working hard all day went home
when the Polls closed, only to remembe
that he had really forgotten to vote him
self. Such a thing has happened and
may happen again.

The Press of Tuesday last reports that
on the preceding day secen hundred and
twenty naturalizations were granted by
the feupreme Court of Pennsylvania in
the space of five working hours. This is
at the rate of two and a half per minute
Anybody can understand what a farceial
proceeding this has been. The men were

many cases by the tipstaves, in tbe ab-
seuce oi ir.e iuuge. me court was

with tbe names left black, have been is

the tactics of senator allace in Luzerne
and Centre counties. The whole nam

How easy it is to to make Democratic
votes when they are wanted.
In all their howling about the great
national debt, and the government taxes
which are oppressive to everybody but
those who pay them, the Democrats for
get to state the main fact. Tbey do not
tell us how this immense debt was creat
ed. Tbey say that it was contracted bv
a Republican Administration, but they al
ways omit to add that it was caused by a
democratic ucoetuoo. ut course the
Democrats, may of whom wanted the Re
bellion to succeed, object to paying the
cost of putting it down. That is natural.
But tbey might as well be honest about
it, and tell the truth. They would a
great deal rather comply with the demand
of Semmes, Forrest and Hampton, and
assume the Rebel debt. They would
yoke the two together, and then repudiate
them both, lhe iourteenth Article of
the Constitution, which they now declare
invalied, is the only legal obstacle in tbe
way.

Pittsburgh, Oct. 3 E S. Kcenar a
Deputy Collector on this side of the
mountains, was arrested this afternoon
and held to bail io the sum of $1,000 on
charge of colonizing Democratic voters in
the Hon. John Covode's (XXIst) Dis

with him on tbe same charge and held to
bail to answer on Wednesday. The com
plainant in the caso is the Hon. John
Covode.
Tilt is said that rats may be effectaally
driven from any building by sprinkling
their places of resort with yellow ochre.
The last desperate artifice of the Cop
perhead leaders to carry Pennsylvania
next week is to issue reams of fresh na
turalization papers to men who are un
provided with them, wherever they can
be found. iIany thousands of Democratic
voters have been manufactured in Phil
adelphia during the last three weeks by
Senator Wallaces committee, iiy the
peculiar process employed it is as easy to
make ten thousand votes as one hundred,
except the manual labor of filling up tbe
blanks, rnilaueipnia is now iuu oi row
dies and thieves brought there to vote on
these papers made to order. Wallace and
his assistants have faithtully tried to
make and import enough new votes to
swamp the supposed liepuDiican major
lty in Pennsylvania, but we are yet con
fident that there are sufficient intelligent
and patriotic men the State to disappoint
their bops.
A citizen of Philadelphia, while walk
ing along Washington street on Wednes
day evening last, with his wife, passed a
house which was illuminated and remark
ed "Hurrah (or Grant." A rowdy nam
cd Device, who was on the sidewalk, drew
a pistol and snapped it twice in the citi
zen's face. He was arrested by a police
man who happened to bo near, when it
was found that two barrels of the pistol
were loaded, and that the Republican's
escape was almost miraculous. Devine
was taken to the police station and search
ed further, when ticelve blank certificates
of naturlizatxon, signed by the 1'rothono
tary and bearivg the sealoj the Supreme
Court, were found on his person. They
only needed tho insertion of names to
make them complete. This is tbe kind
of material tbe Democrats are usine to
help them carry Philadelphia. Murder
and fraud go band in hand with the cause
of Seymour and Blair.
W hat u rant and Uollax wilt receive,
is indicated by Horace Grecly, after a ful
survey of all the ground to be travelled
over between this and the November elec
tion. He says :
1. Grant and Colfax will probably re
ccive the electoral vote of from twenty-
four to twenty-eight btates.
2. Grant and Colfax will be electe
whether jew lorfc votes Republican or
not.
3. Seymour and Blair are sure to carry
two States, are likely to carry six, and
may even ten. But tbe last figures are
improbable. And now, Friends of Free
dom", Union aud Peace everywhere, all
these figures are based on the assump
tion that tbe truth will encourage you to
industry, not lull you to slumber. We
state our actual strength for this camp
aign. It remains for you to use it.
Shirk no labor- Stick at no sacrifice.
Halt at no obstacles. In the indomitable
spirit of your great leader, "keep pegging
away," and in November you may expeet
about tbe result we have set forth.
Justice William Strong, of the Su
preme Court of Pennsylvania, elected in
1857, resigned his scat upon the bench
a few days ago. In his letter of resigna
tion, addressed to Governor Geary, bo cx
pressed the wish that Hon. Henry W.
Williams, of Pittsburg, might be appoint
ed to fill the vacancy. Judge Williams,
it will be remembered, was the competitor
of Judge Sharswood, who was elected last
fall by frsudulent voting in Luzerue and
Centre counties and Philadelphia:. Tbe
appointment was tendered to Judge W.
by the Governor on Wednesday last, and
ou the same day it was accepted. This
chargo will have the effect of placiug a
majority of Republican Judges on the
bench of the Supreme Court. Judge
Strong was elected as a Democrat, but
has been a good Union man since the
Rebellion.
The Democrats boastfully tell us that
after the election we shall bear tbe "Re
bel yell." We hear it already. W re
cogn ize the Rebel yell in the acts of viol
ence andiraud which are now perpetrated
everyday by tbe lawless men of that party
Tbe outrages and murders comitted upon
union men in almost every part of the
Sooth are echoed by the reckless and
riotous conduct of the Northern Copper-
beads. We hear the Rebel shriek in the
assaults made every night in Philadel
phia upon peaceable citizens by members
of Democratic clubs and processions. If
is codcealed in the enormous frauds and
forgeries of naturlization papers which
have been discovered in that city. And
it is now npon tho lips of those who tell
us that after the election it shall be sound
ed in our ears. But tho dav of its
triumph shall never come !
Robert M. Douglas, the eldest son of
tbe great leader of the Western Demo
cracy in the days that are past, is an ar
dent supporter of Grant and Colfax. He
addressed a Republican mass meeting at
Raleigh, North Carolina, appealing to his
bearers to follow the loyal teachings of
his father. He related how his father's
nd his own property in the South had
been confiscated by the Rebels, and him
self stigmatized now as a Yankee and a
carpet bagger, and declared that the only
tiope lor future prosperity and harmony
rested upon the election of Grant aud
Colfax. Thus the cifted voune men of
the country, without regard to former af
unities, are ranging themselves on the
side of a peaceful and progressive govorn-
ment.
During the war.it was just as much
the duty of the capitalist to loan money
to tbe Government, in its hour of need.
as it was tbe duty of the soldier to fight.
the refuse of tbo soldier to fiht
would have been treason, punishable with
death. The refusal of the canitalist to
oan money, from a desire to crinnle the
Government, was no less treason, but is
not so recognized by the law. Men who
deserted rather than fLht, were shot.
The friends of Haratto Seymour, who
boast that he never loaned u dollar to the
Government, want to make him Presi
dent. Pifteen'thousand stalwart Republicans
urned out at Carlinville, III., the other
day. The Rebels fell on their knees un
der the impression at a South America
earthquake had broken loose.
That the soldiers of the Union army
were not, in the opinion of Horatio Sey-
mour, fit to vote, is proved by his veto of
the act of the New York Legislature
which provided for their ballots being
taken in camp and field. His veto bears
date April 24th, 18G3. The soldiers of
Pennsylvania will certainly resent this
insult to their comrades of tbe Empire
Stato.
