EM'L WILVERT, Chairman. J. K. Davis, Secretary. A Word to Our Friknds. Duriug tho two weeks of Court, a number of per sons from di ire rent parts of the county, dropped into our office, nod subscribed for the American. Many told us that they had heard of our paper, and were told thai it was deeidedly tho best and most reliable paper in the county others that they had read copies and were so well pleased that they had concluded to subscribe for it. 'These facts satisfy us that with a little ex ertion on tho part of our friends, our pa per could be introduced into hundreds of families who di not now read it. Now, it is desirable that this be done desirable in several particular. It would cuable us to add to the attraction auJ usefulness of our jiapcr ; it would bcLellt the cause in which we are engaged by bringing the principles underlying it its facts and truths right liomo to a large number of the people, and it would benefit them, especially those who are not able to take more than one (Kipcr, by keeping them posted with the atl'airs of the country, Lbe progrcsa and position of jirtle, and by iuduciiijr habits of thought tidiuYCtti:;at'ioii, the cerlulu fruits of read Lug. How arc these desirable objects to bu ac complished V We cannot atteud to it, fur, tinlike the "travelling editors" of too ma ny local journals, we devote our ti.ne and attention to the interests of our patrons and readers. 1 intend of tilling up our pa per "pell mcll," without tcard to system or brain, we pay considerable attention to .system in preparing matter that will bc-ue-lit and interest our readers which occupies most of our time. To those who advise that we employ a competent person to cau vass, wo reply that such a person is very difficult to get, especially at a salary that wo can afl'ord to pay. Allow us to make a suggostiun to you, frieuds. This can all bo accomplished without difficulty, and without expense. Let each one, especially those who endorse the conduct and pritiei pies of the American, constitute himself a tvyZuTitart a'jtnl, aud embrace every oppor tunity to introduce this matter to such of their neighbors, acquaintances aud iriends, who do not but should take it, aud prevail upon them to order it scut to them at once, t.-cing to it that the subscription U prompt ly remitted. Now is tho time. Tho peo ple need a paper; Many of them want ono. See to it friends that they get tho lmm-.-!. Wa care not what their political pro clivilii ate ; get them once to tako and 're id our paper, and they will not bo with out it. Our subscription price is so low that every one cau afford to take it only ft. 50 for ono year iu advance. Put your boulders to tho wheel, and seo what you .can do for us. Give us more encourage ncnt to further improve otir paper to bene fit its readers. . EOTO parties in Philadelphia accuse 4.D ch other of intended fraud at the next election. It it a pity tho people of that ci ty ran i longer be hoeet. Tub Germans and Welbu going for Grant. It is a significant fact that the German and Welsh population are scarce ly ever known to seek office and it is also a noticeable fact that they are among bur most law abiding and useful citizens, and as a class, are less governed by political pre judice, which so frequently places the un worthy Into power, than even our native born citizens. Being generally educated, they watch closely and understand all that transpires in our national council?, and the men who advocate the interests of tho laboring class. Coming to our shores for the purpose of making themselves useful in developing the vast resources of our country, and enjoying tho Inestimable pri vileges within the reach of all through tho liliorality of our Institutions, thoy despise the Idoa of seeking office as soon as they be come citizens, but at once turu their atten tion to some useful calling, and earn their bread by the sweat of their brow. This class of foreign citizens are seldom known to support any ono but those whom they believe will stand by their country's good, and who will labor for Its best Interests. Office seekers are scorned by them, as they well know the evil effects produced by them lu the old country, and but few are known who do not desiro to advance improvement in their adopted home. In tho present election wo find this class of our citizens iu favor of the re-election of Grant. The Germans are nearly a unit against the par ty who are endeavoring to amalgamate all nations, creeds, sects and isms to get pos session of tho National Government with the expectation of changing Us liberal laws, and creating laws similar to thoso which now oppress the laboriug classes of Europe. Tho Welsh are unanimous, nnd every Welsh journal published in America now lias Grant and Wilson at its mast head. This is significant, and shows that tho Germans aud Welsh, who are undoubtedly the most educated portiou of our foreign citizcus, have studied well the character of the men between whom lays tho future welfare of the country. They believe that U. S. Grant is the most 'capable to admin ister its national affairs. Their nctious speak louder than words. Uuiuterestcd, they look upon the situation with far more candor than the American people, and with minds well trained to national affairs, they have determined, with cool and calm deliberation, to support the man who is best qualified to head our national govern ment. The Hon. John 1$. I1 acker. The Dauphin County Republican Convention, on Tuesday last, instructed their Conferees for the lion. John R. Packer as caudidato for Congress. All the counties in this Con gressional District except Northumberland, have declared Mr. Packer their unauimous choice for a third term, and on tho 10th of September Northumberland will join her sister counties, and make him the unani mous choice of the district. This is pro bably the highest compliment that has been paid to any Congressman ever elected in a district to which Northumberland county was attached. This shows the high ap preciation the voters have for the son of the mother of the counties of which this dis ttict is composed. Mr. Packer's career as a public servaut, is one of tho most bril liant In tho State, aud his services to his constituents has not only given general sat isfaction, but has proven him to be a man whose services cannot well be spared in our national councils. Mr. Packer's course has not only accrued to the advancement of the iuterc6ts of his constituency, but al so to that of the whole people, and both political parties in that body are anxious to have him tcturned, as his counsel in the perplexing questions arising iu the affairs of our national government are desirable. His clear head and correct ideas iu cou- duetiug public atl'airs havo placed htm in tho front rank of our statesmen, and his perseverance aud great industry has gaiucd for him tho respect nnd esteem of all. We are happy to note this fact, as it shows that this district has an officer whose promi nence iu Cougress will insure success iu all his efforts for the interests of his constitu ents one who cau exercise an influence equal to uny of our foremost statesmen. In the selection of Mr. Packer for a third term this district will do itself great hon or, proving, as it will, that its citizens, ir respective of party, are capable of appre ciating the services of an officer of so high a standard in general worth showing that they fully understand the importance of demanding the services of a mau in Con gress whose influence is such that he will be placed iu rank high among his peers ; and his long experienco in parliamentary rules will give him a chairmanshrp of ouc of the best committees. "Now that Pat Hester has been sent to the pcuitentiary the -Imen'cctu will be bad oU'l'or a candidate for Sheriff." Tho above looks as though our ueighbor was playing tito fact ou Pat, and since lie has got into trouble repudiates him. It is strongly suspectsd that tho editor of tho Democrat was anxious to get Pat out of the way for some time, as they wero both am bitious to go to the Legislature. Since Pat has becu incarcerated, as the Detnocrat used to say during the war, I ho editor is very pleasant has donucd a white hat and button-holes cveiybody to vote for him.

The Lcwlsburg University buildings are reeeivrug a inorouga overhauling pre para tory to the commencement of the full Ucm- Fabrications." One of tho meanest ha bits that a journalist can fall into Is the persistency of publishing news which lie knows to be Incorrect, to mislead his read ers. We aro in receipt of Democratic pa pers weekly who indulge in this habit. Even our neighbor of tho Democrat has be come so addicted to this vice that in every tasue there are articles which every oue who keeps pace with the times, knows to be a fabrication, and frequently, too, we find In other parts of his paper, articles copied from other journnls, in flat contradiction to editorials. In last week's issue we uoticed a largely displayed heading of tho North Carolina election with a sickly looking rooster, which looked like falling over while in the effort of crowing, underneath which was tho following lu largo letters : "The Cock that crows last crows rtEST." "Latest Returns" "The Democratic Candidate Elected af ter all." "A Democratic Gover nor." "A Democratic Lieut.-Gov-eunor. "-"Democratic Legislature." 'Democratic United States Sena tor." "Five Democratic Congress-: mbn out of Eight." "Enough has been received from North Carolina to convince every fair-minded man that Judge Merrimou is tho legally elected Governor of that State, and by a handsome majority. The faet is the Radi cal defeat has been overwhelming. They s'arted in the campaign, confident of 20, (J0 majority, and sure of the victory. At the last gubernatorial election in that State they had over 18,000 majority, and it was necessary for them to increase that to show that their party maintained its strength south." If the editor has forgotten that tho Dem ocrats carried the State of North Carolina two years ago by about 5000 majority, it is certain that his readers have not. When the above extract was put In tho Democrat there were sufficient official returns in to show that Caldwell, tho Republican candi date, was elected by at least I jOO majority which the editor knew if ho read the pa- I pcrs, and it ho uegiecteu to uo so ou ac count of not having time, being too much engagul in making his candidacy known, why should ho deceive his readers by pub lishing old news. Since the publication of of the Democrat the official returns havo come to light, which shows that Caldwell is elected by a majority of 220S. Will our ueighbor be frank enough to iuform his readers of this fact. The Constitutional Convention. The delegates to the Constitutional Conven tion should be selected from among our best men in tho country. The delegates will be elected by tho people in each Sena torial district. This district, which is com posed of Northumberland, Union, Snyder and Perry couuties, is entitled to three delegates who aro elected by the cumula tive system of voting. Among those nam ed iu this county in the Republican party, arc Wm. I. Grceuough, Esq., Gen. John K. Clement, L. M. Morton, editor of the Miltonian, aud Wm. A. Sober, Esq. These gentlemen are all fully competent to fill the position, aud would be an honor to the dis trict if elected. A Democrat who has determined to vote for Grant says "it is very humiliating to a life-long Democrat to think that our good old party, that has ruled this great country for so many years, aud under such Presidents as Jefferson and Jackson, should now be found whistling at the tail of a few sorehcaded Republicans." The New York Republican State Con vention, to nominate candidates for Gov ernor aud other offices, met at Utica, ou Wednesday last. 1 lie ptattorm, ia a bold, manly declaration of Repub lican principles, highly eulogistic of tho Administration. Gen. John A. Dix was chosen as a candidate for Governor, aud Judgo John C. Robertson for Lieuten ant Governor. So long as it was believed that tho Demo cracy had swept North Carolina by 20,000-16,000-10,000 majority, all or the Dcmoc cratic journals asserted that the importance of that election did not lie in its immediate results, but in its indication of other elec tions, whose nature would also bo moulded by it. They agreed in this, from tho Tri tune down. Does uot the philosophy hold good, though the Republicans havo won the victory? And if they carried North Caro lina against such extreme efforts, strength ened by that fact, what doubtful Stale may they not hope to carry? North Carolina. Official returns have been received of the vote in North Ca rolina from all but threo of tho counties. The total vote ns reported is 192,067. Of this Caldwell has 07,630, and Merrimou 03,137, making the majority of Caldwell iu eighty-nine counties 2,U73. It is conjec tured that Merrimon's majority in tho three couuties not vet heard from will be about 403, leaving Caldwell a clear majori ty in the State ot z,iiva. Tiio wnoio vote of the Statu has ine reused since 1S70 to the extent of 19.024, the Republicans having gamed 13,790, nnd tho Democrats 0,1'JS ; tho Republicans being net gainers to the extcut of 7.00S voles, in two years, which makes their victory a very urtlliaut one. It is a fact, shown by the table of returns from each county, that this increase has been uniform throughout the State, so that tho Democratic accusation of gross frauds upon the part of the Republicans iu certain sectious is evidently uot justifiable. It is also a fact that if the State had not been redistricted by a dishonest Democratic Le gislature for thu simple purpose of main taining the supremacy of their party, the Republicans at this electiou would have - .. : ,i.n n..i. 1 K.:i.... imti u iiiujojiij in nit? ue.i( jjeisuiitt. The battle iu North Carolina ou our part was fairly fought and fairly won, and the Importance of the victory canuot bo de creased by cries of fraud, which were rais ed only wheu the Greeley people found that their early hopes of triumph were dashed. The Democrats had a majority in the Legislature of forty-tive last year this year it is reduced to about (ifu-en. The Republicans will carry the Stato for Grant by at least ten thousand majority. General A. L. Roumfort, chairman of the Democratic Committee of Dauphiu county, openly denounces Greeley. Hon. W. Carson, chairman of the Dem ocratic Si ale Central Committee of Ohio, has declared for Grant. Hiester Clymer, was nominated for Con gress by the Democracy of Berks, at their convention on Monday. The dissatisfac tion among the Democrats is so great Clymer beiug a Greeley ite that there is a probability of a straight Democratic can didate bems brought out. What do Tuesb TrfiNoa Mean f What did Horace Greeley mean in his let ter to the New York 2Vi6ne of June 8th, Inst year, written on the' 3d of that month, when he said : "I mn confident that two-thirds of the men, with nine-tenths of the women, who formerly composed the slaveholders caste, would this day give half their houses and Inuds to have their slaves back ngutn, Just ns they possessed them in 1800 : They consider themselves robbed by eman cipation, and would like their property back again, or its vnlue in some equiva lent." And what did he mean by saying, in the same letter, that "they," the rebels, "Proposo to renew the fight, but not with the gun nnd sabre. They expect to regain ns Democrats, through elections, tho power thoy lost as rebels through war." And what did he mean when, iu tho same communication, speaking of the col ored voto, he stated that "They will seek to cocrco enough of it into voting tho Democratic ticket to give them a majority of tho Southern electoral vote for next President." And what docs tho following extract from tho speech of Governor Brown, of Tennessee, at a reccut Greeley ratification meeting at Nashville, mean V "He supported Greeley because ho loved tho South, bailed Jeff. Davis, advocated universal amnesty and had no kinsfolk. He did not care what Greeley had said in the past against the South and its institu tions. It was enough for him to know that he wns in favor of restoring her to her pristine rights. Orceley, if eltvled. toould pay lite lossen of the South, and set her peo ple on tho high road to wealth and happi ness." And what aro tho taxpayers of the coun try to infer from this statement of Gol lailny, a Democratic Representative iu Congress, made at tho same liuio and place ? "Greeley, at tho outset of tho war, wns in favor of letting tho "wayward sisters de part iu pc-ice," and afterward went single handed and alone to meet our Commission ers in Canada, to treat for peace. Not a Democrat in the North dared go with him, or manifested any desire to go. He was then in favor of paying the South for her slaves, and I believe he is still." These statements of tho caudidato and his frieuds nro respectfully recommended to the consideration of all men who believe that their taxes tire already sufficiently heavy, and who propose that the results of the war shall stand as they are, untiukcrud nnd unimpaired. Greeley and the Rebel Bonds. The Miners Journal says voters should keep their eyes open aud read between tho lines of the numberless newspaper articles of the day written to deceive. Facts nre constantly being brought to light, which if interpreted aright nre revelations. Here, for instance, is one: Since thu nom ination of Horace Greeley t Confederate bonds held in Europe have assumed a value. Why? Because in Horace Greeley's election, which, thank God, is not ono of the possiblities, is seen tho triumph of that portion of our voters who desire to see those bonds redeemed. Remember this, voters since Horace Greeley's nomiualiou Con federate bonds haw assumed, a value in Eurupe. Comment is needless. Mr. Buclalew and Suffrage. Mr. Buekalew being nil old Democrat and fa miliar with all the vi.-ws of the party, turns out from the official record, to be anything but a Democrat in its generally accepted sense. One of its strongest dogmas he re pudiated iu a speech he delivered while So uator in Coutiress, ou the suffrage question, which is published in the ('ciii'i'e.t.sioiiaj Globe, December 12, 1800, pngo 83, where he says in these words : "Now, sir, tho objection which I havo to a large extension of tutfrago in this coun try, whether by Federal or State power, is this : that thereby you will corrupt nnd de grade electious anil probably lead to their complete abrogation hereafter. By pour ing into the ballot-boxes of the country a largo mass of iguoraut voters, aud vjtes subject to pecuniary or social influence, you will cerrupt and degrade your elec tions and lay the foundation for their ulti mate destruction. That is a conviction of mine, and it is upon that ground that I re sist negro sullnige and tcmafesiillrage, and any other proposed form of suffrase which t-ikes humanity in no unduly broad or en larged sense as the foundation of nu ar rangement of political power." Here is something for tho masses of the country such as laborers, operatives in our mills, mechanics aud working-men ge nerally to ponder over. The seulimeuts of General Harlranft are just the reverse of this. He favors every man, with a lo cal habitation nnd a name, who is entitled by the present lilieral laws of tho country to the right of suffrage to enjoy it on au equal footing with every other man, whe ther of high or low degree. His is tho doc trine of the great Republican party. The Ku-Klvx Want Greely. Tho South Carolina Ku-Klux, whose outrages have been for a time suppressed by the vig orous action of the Federal Government, enforcing the laws of Congress, aro waiting for the election of Greely to recommence their fiendish operations. Tho following extract from a letter written to the lloston Journal by a gentleman long resident iu that Slate, is exceedingly suggestive : "You cau do much where you nre by letting the people know what exactly are and have been the facts. The late action of the politicians has done great harm, and the Ku-Klux snake is raising his bead again, preparing to strike if Greely should be elected. These fools here Cannot under stand, aud I fear will 'never learn in their generation, what we have so long been ac customed to in the North tolerance ofdif ferences of political sentiment. I am not hopeful for the future, mid if Greeley is elected there will be no question that every L'uion white mau, and hall tho uegroes of South Carolina may pack up and leave, for sooner or later they will have that to do or be killed." Tho rising of the people all over tho coun try to sustain the present Administration by the reelection of Grant aud his associate nominee, V Uson, tar transcends nil vte nad anticipated. It is spontaneous, earnest and nersistcut, aud v.iu bo triumphantly suc cessful, against all combinations of malcon tents, gathered from whatever number of factions and craving individuals for place. In a number of Sulci threo of which, New-York, Illinois and Indiana, considered the headquarters of disaffection this de monstration strikes us with surprise and pleasure. It canuot bo mistaken or mis construed, for it stands out in the boldest relief, and will be established when the day of trial comes. Horatio Seymour and Sanford E. Church have refused lobe candidate for Governor of New York, aud it is thought Augustus Schell will be nomiuated. President Grant has ordered a discon tinuaauce of the work of tearing up the track of the Memphis and Little Rock rail way, its a Hairs having been satisfactorily settled. Chester and Rucks counties, In this State, iu both of which it was supposed there would be a large number of Greeley Republicans, have sea rely auy followers of Horace. The vote for Hartrauft aud Grant iu those counties will be much larger than usual, Tremendous Burglar. A' Dank Robbed or Several Hun dred Thousand Dollars. Baltimore, August 19. The Third National Bank, on South street, between Second and Lum bard streets, in the very heart of tho city, was entered and robbed by burglars last night. The loss of the bank and of Individuals who had private boxes deposited iu the vault, has not yet been ascertained, but the bank officers place their loss inside of one hundred thousand dollars. The footing up is now going on. - An entrance was made by burglars from a room in an adjoiniug building, owned and formerly occupied by John S. Gittings as a banking house. The entire lower floor of this building was rented in June by a pnrty giving the name of Stabler, who professed to oe a commission merchant. From the rear room an entrance was easily made by re moviuz a thin brick wall, aud cutting away a plate of sheet iron half an inch thick directly in ine vault oi tne loira Na tional Bank. The bricks and debris removed from the wall were put in the vault of Gittings' buildiug. Tho burglars seem to have ope rated at leisure and enjoyed themselves, as they left au amnio lunch of cold chicken aud bottles of wme in Gittings' vault. particulars of tre uoubkry. in the vault were two large safes. Tbev were cut into and rifled. It is now stated that between twenty and twenty-five depositors' boxes were robbed, and the wildest state ments nre current on tho street that the losses of the depositors, in monev. bonds. and securities, reach half a million. Among the bouds certainly stolen are $7o,000 iu City of Jjuievillo water loan coupon bonds. Among the losses of the bank are : 75, 000 Louisville water bonds ; 88000 North ern Central gold b"s. Tho public is cau tioned against negotiating any of these se curities. Numbers aud further particu lars will be furnished as speedily as possi ble. Estimate of the Losses. Tho offi cers of tho bauk state their losses by the burglary as follows : 837,000 greenbacks and national bank notes, of which there were eight notes of 8100 each, and twenty four notes of 850 each, of tho Third Na tional Bank, and the following bonds held ns collateral : Northern Central Railroad, 82300 ; North Carolina Stato bonds, 811, 500 ; Marietta nnd Cincinnati Railroad, 81000 ; 5-20'b, 81300 ; Western Maryland Railroad, 82000. Tho bank offers a re ward of 810,000 for the recovery of tho above, or nro rata for partial recovery. The individual losses of depositors hav ing boxes in the vault cannot be ascertain ed, as mauy are out of town. The loss will probably amount to several hundred thou sand dollars, ns it is known that several boxes containing bonds nnd other securi ties will nmotiut to 875,000. Tim first llonr of tho Gittings' Bank Building, from which the entrance was made into tho bunk vault, was rented June 1, by a man giving the name of E. Wash burue, who paid a quarter's rent (8D25) in advauce. One of the many converts to Grcclcyism claimed by .Sumner and others, was the linn. Rolierl C. Winthrop, who never was a Republicau, or a politician at all since the organization of tho party. Tho Dolly Vardens tried to get him out and they suc ceeded, lie says in reply to a letter to that effect, under date of the 9th inst., that when he accepted the chairmanship of the Trustees of the Peabody Southern Educa tion Fund, ho "resolved to keep out of politics. As it I shall ndhoro to it firmly. ejcceit to vote for Grant." He adds. "I cer tainly cannot support Greeley and the coali tion. I can see no safety for tho country in their success. Neither reform uor recon ciliation could result from so unnatural a combination, but only renewed discord aud confusion." How the Rebels Vote The Repub licau Congress passed, nt the especial re quest of President Grant, a bill granting universal amnesty to all the leading spirits of tho rebellion excepting only Jeff. Davis and a Tew olncrs. ISy this act or clemency more than twenty-five thousand red handed rebels in North Carolina were restored to citizenship, nnd every one of these, tho papers inform us, voted the De mocratic ticket Inst week, nnd not only voted for it, but worked night nnd day for its success. The declaration of Horaefi Greeley that they SHOULD RECEIVE FAY FOR TliEIR SLAVES FROM THE PUR L1C TREASURY WAS INSCRIBED ON THEIR RANNERS. What do tho taxpayers of the north think of this ? Look at this, Gallant Democrats. The Hichmond Inquirer said a few days since : "For seveu years wo have been fighting the Radical party, ns for four years we fought the Federal nrmy ; nnd during these seven long years, ns during those four disastrous years, we havo been looking to the Copperhead Democracy of the North to come to our aid and extricate us from tho position in which they placed us. We have looked to them, however, in vain. We found them ns powerless in peace to help us us they had shown themselves unwilling or uuable iu war." Another Sign. The "Beaver County Conservative," the only Democratic paper in that county, has hauled down the names of Greeley and Rrown, and awaits the ac tion of the Louisville convention, intending to support the ticket that will be nominated there. Its example will be followed by thousands of Democrats in Pennsylvania. The Bloomsbur? llepublicaii says that for every "Liberal" Republican that will vote for Greeley in Columbia county, fifty Democrats will not. This is Ruckalew's home, and docs not speak very encouraging ly for his prospects in October. Can't go for Greelky.-TIi8 Reading Times of Saturday says: The Straight Out Democrats of Readiug are getting to be quite formidable in numbers, and are by no means inactive iu their operations. With in the past two weeks ot'crdcoAuncired sub scribers have been sent to Brick Ponieroy's JJemonrat Irom tnts city, and additional names arc constantly being forwarded. Of course not ono of I'neso will vote for Greeley. Another IUil Storm. On Friday afternoon last, a hall storm passed over portions of Dela ware and Lewis townships. Tho largost bail were the size of hickory nuts. They foil In the locality of tho great storm or last year. The ef fects were most marked upon the corn fields, manv of tho stalks being broken, and the leaves split'und stripped. It is estimated that where the storm was most severe about one-nfth oftho crop was destroyed. In the vlcliutysof Cook & Pardee's portable mill, rain fell tu torrents.--warrior and Delaware Run rose rapidly, aud considerble damage was done to roads, bridge, etc. WattoiUoimt Jticorti. Some mooied citizens of Lewisburg ad vertise that a charter for a new bauking company will be applied for to tho next Legislature. Senator Wilsoh delivered twenty -one speeches in twelve days in Indiana, lie says that the enthusiasm for the admin istration in the west exceeds bis highest expectations.

Greeley said : "If the Southern States choose to form an Independent nation they have a moral right to do so ;" and when ever a considerable section of our Uuion deliberately resolve to go out, we shall re sist all coercive measures designed to keep it in." Gen. John A. Dix said : "If any man attempts to haul down the American flag, shoot him on the spot." No wonder Dix felt insulted at being asked to speak at a Greeley meeting t Mr. George Dress, Esq., a highly re spected German citizen of Harrisburg, lately returned from Europe after an ab sence ot three months, says that the Ger man people of Europe denounce the course of Carl Schurz, in his opposition to the na tional administration, nnd that if the hon orable gentleman were to visit his native land ho would not find any supporters among his frieuds there. Robert C. Simpson, Esq., heretofore an active and influential Democrat, of Wilkes barre, Tioga county, is President of the Grant and llartranit club. II. C. Bailey, of Tioga borough, who has represented in the Democratic, press as a Greeley convert, is out in a strong letter, urging all who have the best interests of the country at heart to remain true to the good old cause, represented by Grant and Ilartranft. Mr. Greeley says, in bis Portland speech that he recognizes "all honest men" who indorse the Cincinnati movement as his brothers. This is a quiet way of proclaim ing himself an only son. Tho better class of Democrats are coming out for Gcant by the scores. farmers all over the State are suffering from effects of fire caused by carelessness.
