Presidential.
IntituiJation and fraud have followed in
the track of the Democratic reformers from
the opening of the Presidential campaign to
the present moment. The leaders were
a'raid to attempt to get into power by fair
ud honorable means. They knew that their
cause wa9, on its merits weak and untenable,
and before an intelligent and patriotic public
must fail. The Reformers well knew that
the idea of handing the government over to
Ilehels who fought four years to destroy it,
and to those who sympathized with them in
their wicked attempt, would be repulsive in
the highest degree, to the union sentiment
of the country. Hence they summoned unto
their service in the earliest movements of the
lata canvass base intimidation and fraud
These weapons have been their stock in trade
Ana notwithstanding the vigerous use
n:ade of this foul means of warfare, all the
f tales that furnished troops and money to put
down the rebellion voted for Hayes, except
four, while all the states that were in rebel
lion voted forTiidenaud the reformers except
three. But these three the l efortuerscounted
r.s cure for Tilden, though they had been
Republican since the war. They counted as
pure a solid South for Tilden. The intimida
tion and fraud which they practiced on the
reak and almost defenceless Republicans ot
of the States of Mississippi, Louisiana,
Florida, South Carolina, and North Carolina
ud iu other parts of the South, failed
fortunately in three states to accomplish
their purpose. Threats to discharge the oe
ro from service, and drive him from his
home, firing shots at random iuto his house
at night, taking him out and flogging him
in the most brutal manner, and hundreds of
fo :1 and cowardly murders failed to frighten
the negro out of his political integrity and
love of freedom and loyalty to the party that
achieved it lor him, ia Louisiana, Florida,
tr-d South Carolina. And Tilden and his
r:.; risers wore defeated by one electoral
Twe''e year3 ago the colored man shot
a'iiast the rebels, and they were defeated.
T-e other day he again voted against them
s n I they are once more defeated. What a
j -jrtCT the colored man has become I He
t'ron saved thi government from the hands
c: the rebels, avA the other day he did it
theirs, but cs ly fire and blood. We in our
cou: ploio freedom to vote as we choose can
r: .: comprehend their self sacrifice and devo
tion to jrriuC.-ii.le.
When the reformers realized that their in
ti .aluation and fraud had failed on the colored
u.an. tr2y qiiiwkly turn the same mode oJ
rvirure against the white man. They threa
tvnsi the lives of the canvassing boards in
;i they diJ not give the Tilden electors
certificates of election. Bat they failed again,
'i.ey went to Washington and tried to
' r ' I j : " u a t e G r 1 n t by t h rea tv n i rig i u 1 peach m en t
v ..:, he wi!l throw his infi'jenee iu favor ot
'I.. -it a. But here they fail again. For
Grunt won't intimidate at all. They try to
i.-.rhisidate the loyal north by threats of war
if Go-.'. Hayes is made president. But the
rcrth ha3 heard that noise before, and don't
i;.'t:;iii Jute a bit. Then comes the dastardly
zA cowardly threat that, if Hayes don't re
f i?e to be President, get out of the way and
lj-Tiiuen bo inaugurated, he must and will
I 2 shot. But Gov. Hayes was not afraid of
their bullets twelve years ago, and don't in
timidate at all.
Thtn they try to frighten the Senate out
1 . m m
c: ccumicg the electoral votes according to
h .7 and custom. But the Senate won't in
tiidite. But what next? The "reform
its" then make an attempt to buy three of
I! iyes' electors to vote for Tilden. Two of
these they made an attempt to get in
Louisiana and one in South Carolina, offer-
i:-g from $10,000 to $100,000. But the
Hayes men were hocest and would not bite
the tempter's bait.
But what nest? Up in Oregon they found
s, "reforii." governor in a etate which voted
etrcngly for Hayes, and he, being a demo
crat, is readily bought with a mess of pottage
to lasae a certificate of election to a democrat
uho was signally defeated at the election for
-icctur. And he votes for Tilden. But what
contea;ptible rascality? What consummate
folly? He had no more right to a certificate
cf election nor to a vote than the man iu the
i:;oorj, nor will it have any more effect.
1 bus have the Democratic reformers' mode
of warfare signally and ignominiously failed.
Fraud and intimidation have lost their
power und terrors. Governor Hayes will be
inaugurated President of these United States
nn the 5th of next March. And we predict.
that he will make such a president as his
friends will glory in, and his enemies be
bound to respect

AST" We do not envy the position of
Governor lildcn it he should happen to
reach" the Presidency through the stealing
of an elector in Oregon or by any other
technical or questionable means. Tho only
pretext for refusing a certificate of election
to the excluded Hayes man in Oregon is
that he was a postmaster some time ago.
It is admitted that the State gave a clear
majority of its popular vote to Hayes and
Wheeler, and the Tilden man who got a
certificate was on the beaten ticket. It is
also a settled principle that the ineligibility
of a person elected to any official position
dues not "give the place to the man having
the next greatest number of votes. And
again, if Watts, the Oregon elector, was
ineligible to serve because he was a post
master, were not Joel Parker and Benjamin
Wi.liamson of New Jersey, holding appoint
ments as United States Commissioners,
equally ineligible ? But these New Jersey
men voted for Tilden, and that makes all
the difference. If it shall be held by the
House next February that Hayes must lose
a vote in Oregon for this reason, it will be
entirely just that the Senate should see
that Tilden loses two votes iu New Jersey
for the same case.
JEST If the allegations are true which
come from Louisiana and South Carolina,
that attempts were made in those States to
bribe Republican electors to cast their votes
for Tilden and Hendricks, the circumstance
is most disgraceful to the party which
sought to reap the benefit of such acts of
corruption and treachery. Ihe reports
received appear to be well sustained. When
the name of Mr. Levisee, the Louisiana
elector who was to be corrupted, was called
during the ballot, he arose and declared iu
the presence of a room full of people that
he had been offered 8100,000 to give his
ballot to the Democratic candidate, Samuel
J. Tilden. He refused it because, as he
said, he deemed it "better that the Republi
can candidates should be elected than that
he should receive 100,000." In the
South Carolina case, also, one of the Re
publican electors openly announced that he
had been offered 810,000 to vote for the
Democratic candidates. The fact that large
sums of money were offered to buy up elec
toral votes for Tilden and Hendricks thus
appears to be well established. Now the
question comes up, who was to pay this
money, so lavishly and temptingly offered,
for carrying the Presidential election by
bribery ? People who are not deeply in
terested personally do not have such large
sums to use for political purposes. Is it
too much to assume that Tilden himself
must have been at the bottom of these dis
graceful attempts to buy his way into the
W lute House ? If it was not Tilden, who
can be the man who has committed this
shameful assault upon the purity and honor
of our electoral system ?
TnE Rev. Thf.ophilus IIeiliq. W
learn from the Easton Daily Free Press of
the 27th ult., that the Rev. Theo.hilus
Heilig of the Lutheran Church, whose firs
pastorship was over his people in this place
and in fcmithfield, from about late in 1861
to 1864, when he accepted a call from Rei
gelsville, where he maintained pastoral re
lations during the last twelve years, has
recently been called to fin, pro tempore, the
pulpit of Christ s Lutheran Church in Las-
ton, until April 1st, 1S77. Rev. W. A.
Sehieffer, the pastor in charge, is the sue
cessor of llev. Doctor Green wald, and has
been for some time in ill health, in conse
quence of which his congregation has kind
ly retired him until next April, during
which time the Rev. Heihg is called to be
pastor.
Mr. H. resigned the Reigelsville Charge
on the first of last September, and accepted
the call to Easton on the first of Novem
ber.
On the eve of his leaviu Reigelsville to
assume pastoral relations at Easton, his nu
merous friends at the furmcr place, in token
of their appreciation and kindness, gave the
Rev. gentleman a surprise, which proved
to be successful in the hiyrhest decree in
all its appointments. The supper, which was
prepared and brought to the parsonage, we
learn, was of the very best, to which over
a hundred guests sat down, the crowd being
composed of the best citizens of the place
and vicinity. And to round off this biil
liant surprise in the best possible manner,
the Rev. gentleman fouud that a very clev
er purse had been very slyly imposed upon
him, which imposition, we trust, will be
meekly borne with, out of special regard
for the donors, and slight respect for the
times.
Mr. II. is a son of the late Rev. George
Ileilig, and son-in-law of the lion. Wm.
Davis, of this town. He is a gentleman
of unusual attainment and capacity ; and
his many friends in this county, which is
the scene of his earliest pastoral labors, have
a right to rejoice, as they doubtless will,
at the appreciation and success attending
hi3 latest ministerial efforts. For it can
hardly be esteemed a light compliment to
be called upon to supply a pulpit recently
filled by Doctor Green wald and how presi
ded over by Rev. W. A. Schaffer. -
An Oyster Supper and Festival will be
held in Shafer's School House, on Friday
evening, December zJd, for the benefit of
G. L. Schaffer, the pastor in charge. The
preparations for the occasion are in the
hands of the ladies in the vicinity and will
therefore be complete. All are cordially
invited to attend. Should the weather

Last Friday evening a very fine hive of
bees was stolen from the back yard of Mrs.
Daniel Miller, in Stroud township, near this
borough.
Last Saturday's gale blew everything
out of Main street except the gravel stones,
and it even took some of theso into new
quarters.
Two men recently entered the granary of
Samuel Brown, in Lehigh county, bored hole
in the floor, caught the grain in bags and
carried it off.
The recent changes in the weather, "every
body but 3'ou shuts the door," is an excellent
"card" with which to secure the shutting of
your office door.
The rabbit crop is rather short. We know
from experience. On Thursday last was our
day, not for cotton-tails, but for pheasants,
for we bagged three of the feathery tribe.

Lucky. On Saturday last, when every
body was supposed to be behind some warm
stove, one of the "knights of the awl"
ventured out and captured two rabbits.

received and all that is needed is the num
ber of men to make up the company.
TnE recent cold snap and the freezing over
of the several fctreams around our borough,
gladdened the hearts of both skaters and
fisherman. On Sunday last, temptation
being too great, some of the "weak-miuded"
ventured out aud went for some of the
finny tribe."
Death of Father Hunt. Rev. Thomas
Hunt, widely known as "Father Hunt,"
died last wetk in Philadelphia and was buried
on Friday at Wilkes-Barre. For more than
forty years he was an earnest champion of
the temperance cause. His death will be a
great loss to the cause of religion and tem
perance. Large Hons. Alfred Drake of Stroud
township, killed two hogs, 15 months old,
