Oun Duty. Tho October ekciiou is
over, nnd rualtcrs, ns far ns county nnd
State is concerned, is si-h''-1 uu0tlier
year. Thf " . '- - duty to per-
...... wVh ,.0f U.el.lg imp0l.tanco,
nnd if wo exercise good ,ju(lf(...i 8,all
g.nn experience to guide us In the future.
Wo allude to the duly devolving imn ...
on the Gth of November next, one which
no true lover of his country can shirk, hi
which every citizen is interested, to vote
for men for President nnd Vice President
who best protect the interests of the coun
try. The workinc man nnd business man
both nre interested, nnd have n serious da
ty to perform. You have a choice for Pre
sident nnd Vice President, nnd it will be
your duty to judge which is best calculated
to ndvance your interests, and those of
your neighbors. . Ou the one side you have
free trade staring you in tho face ready to
close up your workshops, furnaces, stores
and all other business, while on the other
side protection to American industry is
sure to receive favorable consideration.
This is not the quostinn shall a Democrat
or Republican rule this country but the
question is whether our Government shall
be carried on in the interests of English
capitalists, and gel the wages of the work
ing classes cut down to correspond with
waccs in Europe. Working men sec that
your ballots arc cast for tho pnrty that pro
tected your interests.
The Mahanoy Valley Record, published
by John Parker, a Labor Reformer, takes
the following sensible view of the matter :
"Protection to the interests of American
industry is a question of the most vital im
portance to overy working .man in these
conl regions, nnd with them every business
man also, and which of the two parlies
nsking our sufl'ages, is most to bo depend
ed on, to further, uphold, and defend
this vital question, is a matter that most
directly allecls us, ana a spmcUnng lor us
to be, fully sat .isfled fffscfore we cast our
votes on tho iifth of next month. In Ho
race Greeley jwo behold n luau whoVhas
been for years' an ndvocato of protection,'
nud ono who had beeu nllilintcd with pro
tectionists we ocrtainly could li! looked
upon ns me menu oi American lnujuw
but alas for Ins life Ion" rcmitntiiJaV ns
protectionist ! for the sake of dIVkA.Iw lnys
down tho weapons of his wnrtarannd says,
"whatever you thiuk is 181 1 wjt)ndorse.
If you decide for protection, I 8mylJlndly
ngree with you. If you are in favor of free
trade, I shall not oppose your will. Like
the 'potter's clay' I place myself- wi your
hands to mould mo as you please." Ho
much, then, for a m.iu who nfter lighting
so long with us for Protection, who now
for the love of o(Iicef like a coward, grovels
at the fuet of tllG free trade f iction. As
for Drown, 'all know that he is nn ultra
Free Trader, and therefore we cannot but
expect thaPn'U his inllucnee ag"yice Pre
sident would be used iu its favor. His
committee would bo appointed to further
it, nnd should a tic vote in the Senate ren
der it necessary that no should decide,
Dallas like, his decision would be with
i'ree Trades
The editor of the JJcmocrat still clings to
his friend Pat Hester. In his last issue he
complains llml largo posters were put up
denying the report that Pat Hester had
been pardoned which the editor and a few
of his friends were circulating throughout
the county on tho evo of the election, and
- Thiuks it a "shameful policy." At- Pat
has not been panfoncd, and is likely not to
be, the editor and his few friends, who in-U-uded
to dupe the farmers by telling them
u lio to secure their votes, will lind that the
peoplo in the Mahanoys aro not ns igno
rant ns they took them to be. - We know a
uumber, both Democrats and Ik-publicans,
in the German dislrict,whocouldeulighten
tho editor of the Democrat some, nd all
could teach him more honesty iu polities
than he ever knew.
Cool. The editor of the (iutml, iu or-K-"dcrto
justify himself in regard to his at
tack upon the Hon. Jne. U. Packer, affects
entire innocence, nud wunts us to point out
the article in which ho was defamed, and
says "it is quite true, we did, nnd now con
demn the frauds practiced nt the late elec
tion." As tho article ngniust Mr. Packer
appeared in the Guard tho week previous
to the election it is rather cool, to say tho
least, for tho editor to say it had reference
to frauds at the election.
A NUMUKii of promiuent geutlemrn from
the South who happened to meet in confer
ence iu Wushingtion the other day to dis
cuss the political situation, nud who re pro
fcent various portions of the South, report
ed that there was little or no discourage
ment in their respective sections over tho
tosult of the October elections. All but
ono State, postsibly two, will vote for Gree
ley aud Jlrowti in November. The addi
tion of New York, Indiana, Connecticut
nnd New Hampshire U only required to
make tho ticket successful. Deouxrat,
It is readily seen by the above that the
editor of the Democrat depends upon his
Ku-Klux friends in the South to elect Ho
race Greeley. Perhaps he has forgotten
that Grant has beateu them before, and
that there aro more loyal men in the South
now than there was then.
It is very funny to hear the Democrats
trying to explaiu how Hartrauft was
elected. The simplo fact is that ho received
more votes than lSucknlcw, and there is no
necessity for tliu future explanation.
Oun neighbor of tho Dtmocrtt a few
years ngo, cautioned his renders not to
rend Hornco Greeley's1 pnpor for fenr, we
snppouo, thnl they might eeo how Horace
abused tho Pcmocratlo pnrty. Now ho nd-
vises Democrats to go to the polls on elec
tion day, and voto solid for Horace Gree
ley. Did ever anybody see such inconsis
tency in an editor. lie says "all the old is
sues about which w differed are dead and
gono forever." This looks as though tho
editor of the Democrat wanted to dictate
to every Democrat, and compol them to
voto just as he desired them to. He
says too that "tho great hosts of Liberals
with their presses and influential men, will
swell tho ranks" in favor of Greeley. In
another part of his paper he says tho few
Liberal Republicans without appending the
"iulluentinl." Whnt can his renders ex
pect to infer from such contradictions. We
thiuk that the "Liberal" movement at tho
lato election was one of tho most liberal
movements made for many years. Instead
of receiving 10,000 to 13,000 Republican
majority they were liberal enough to give
us 35,000, and wo shall not object to hav
ing another display of liberality to nn cqunl
extent in November next, iu which ense the
"rnnks will be swelled" to nt least 50,000.
Tho Republican I'Artj ninl Labor.
One of the strongest columns in our fair
Republican edifice, says tho Jlfiiim' Jour
nal, is intelligent, thoughtful sull'rage.
Tho workingmen of this country ns a mass

their convictions. This has been dutnon

Pennsylvania for instance, receutly gave
General Hartranft for Governor, wns not
so much for the candidate, although he is
unexceptionable, as for tho principles of
which ho is n representative. It wns a
legitimate result of conviction resulting
from observation nnd experience on the
part of the workingmcn of our Stale.
Study tho history of the Republican
party, from the period of its earliest incep
tionopposition to thcextcnliou of slavery
on this continent to the present, nnd it
will be found that every progressive step of
the party has been in tho interest of labor
for its elevation and increase of its emol
uments. It said to Hid slave master, when
he would carry his "chattels" on free soil,
"Thus far shalt thou co ; no farther." It
struck the shackles from tho limbs of the
slave, and made him a free man with all
the rights and priviliures, uuder the law. of
a free man. It opened up tho vast wilder

nnd a Republican President enforced au
eight-hour law in the workshops of the
nation, llie Sympathies ol the party are
with labor and its mntcrial interests and
welfare. It has demonstrated practically
that truo labor reform, stripped of its cru
dities, is advanced Republicanism. The
candidates of the party, for President nnd
V lccJkirosidonl, are men who liuvo earned
their brend by tho sweat of tho brow.
Grant as a woodcutter aud a tanner, nnd
Vi Uson ns a shoemaker, lliev nre men
who can nnd do sympathize with labor nud
its needs, nnd who will never turn n deaf
enr to its appeals when based on justice nnd
rights.
I his is tho partv and these the men for
whom the workingmen of Schuylkill coun-
Mate, ot the nation, should cast
their votes on the 25th of November. For
in neither Greeley nor Brown, O'Conor nor
Adams, can they place nuy confidence.
All aro opposed to tho interest of home
labor nnd home industry, nud would if they
hnd an opportunity, strike down our indus
tries, put out our furnace fires, nnd close
our workshops. For this free traders say
quite frankly Hint they enn support nny of
them. All of them iu fact, on that point
are satisfactory.
Jet the workingnien or Schuylkill county
resolve to a man to go to the polls ou the
5th pf November and vote for Grant nnd
Wilson. Ihe 1500 majority which they
can give in Schuylkill couuty will go to
make up a glorious 100,000 in. the State,
and the moral e licet upon legislation in Uic
future in the interest of labor cannot bo
fully estimated. It would be immense.
Consider this question well, and nt the
election now near nt hand resolve to de
posit a ballot which in its future effects will
be calculated to produce results of vast im
portance to you and yours.

Fillmore and Johnson proved traitors -to
the jx.'oplo who elected- them, they pay
much more attention to the Vie Presi
dency, for it is becoming almost as important
as the Presidency itself. . The tuiblen
deaths of Harrison, Taylor nnd Lin

should be elected, nnd should prove less
flexible limn his rebel friends anticipate, a
Southern A'ica President might' be rendy
to step into his shoes. What, then, nre the

HORSE EPIDEMIC IS! CAXADA.
OeNrrlpliou of lhe dlnenno It Ap
pearunre In New Vork.
The Montreal Gazette of tho 17th inst.
gives a description of the epidemic now pre
vailing among the horses in Canadn, nnd
which has nlso made its appearance in
Bufliilo. It first appeared in Toronto, and
spread from there to Montreal with astonish
ing rapidity, few horses escaping. In the
hitler city tho cab stands aro deserted nud
scarcely a horse is to be seen. Une Surgeon
has 2,000 horses under" treatment.
Among veteriuary surgeons the diseaso
is known as epizootic influenza, and is oc
casion by atmospheric influence suppostd
to have some connection with tho recent
heavy and frequent thunder stoims. Tho
disenso is not necessarily a fatnl one ; so
far from its being so, if properly treated nt
its beginning thero will be few deaths. It
is characterized by sore throat, slight swell
ing of the filiinUB, loss of appetite, severe
hacking cough, with a discharge brownish
yellow matter from the nostrils, quick pulse,
quickened respiration, great fecbleuess
nud yellowness of tho eyes nud mucus
mcmbrnnc, tho hUtcr giving indication of
implication of tho liver. The respiratory
organs, however, aro the principal parts
cllccted, but the disenso beiug a blood poi
son, nny nnimal having hnd previous dis
ease by which any organ or system of or
gans have becomo weakened, will at onco
show symptoms indicating derangement of
tfiesc organs.
With this medicine given by ndvicc of a
veterinary surgeon the following treatment
will hardly fail to cll'cct a euro or prevent
tho progress of tho disease or the taking of
it. The horses quite well or slightly cllcct
ed should not be taken out in wet weather,
and if they have to be so, should be warmly
covered. "AfTected animals should be kept
in n we'd ventilated stable aud fed upon hut
soft food easily digested, such as linseed tea,
oatincnl gruel nnd boiled oats or barley.
The appetite of invalids should be tempted
by carrots, apple or nny other delicacy
our quadrupled friend is known to have a
failing for. In nil stables a carbolic disin
fectant should be liberally used.
Owncis of horses iu this vicinity should
bo on their guard, as the disease may
spread in this dircetiou from Buffalo and
New York city, where it already prevnils
to some extent, ed.
The Stkaiohtout Democrats. The
Democratic Executive Committee of this
Stale held a meeting nt the Bolton House,
Harrishurg, Wednesday week, at which the
fallowing preamble and resolutions were
adopted :
Whereas, The result of the October elec
tion in Pennsylvania has fully domouetated
the fact that the State can, under no cir.
cumstanees, be carried for tho Liberal Re
publican candidate for tho Presidency,
Horace Greeley, and there is not, as wns
anticipated iu c.se of sueh nn overwhelm
ing defent, a disposition on the part of the
Democratic leaders who have aflilialed with
the Cincinnati movement to return to their
allegiance to the true Democracy ; nnd.
Whereas, The nomination of on electoral
ticket in support of the nominees of the
Louisville Convention Charles O'Couor
and John Quiucy Adams, would entail
considerable trouble and expense, without
any hope of success or gain to the Demo
cracy of the State ; therefore,
Resolved, That the Committee recom
mend to the delegates here assembled, that
no electoral ticket be nominated, but flint
the. honest Democratic voters of the Stnto
refrain from taking any part in the po
litical contest now being waged by tho two
wings of the Republican party in the inter
est of their respective candidates. Grant
nnd Greeley.
In accordance with the above recom
mendation of the State Executive Com
mittee of Pennsylvania, tbo Committee
ndjourned without making any nomination
for electors. A number of delegates fr urn
different sections of the State were sn at
tendance, nud 'numerous Utters from promi
uent lk-mocrats, ndvisiug the course de.
cidod upon, woie lead before the conven
tion. Simon Camehox. For the first lime in
his long career ns a polii ical leader' Simon
Uhmeron was made ono of the main issues
in a bitter, thoroughly fought aud malig
nantly pursued political canvass. His
whole course as a politician, legislator and
ns n man, were made issues, unsought by
himself or his friends, but unfairly forced by
his enemies. Indeed, says the State Jour
nal, there were localities, such ns Lancas
ter county, were it was supposed, by drag
ging his name into the canvass, the cause
of Republicanism would be greatly injured ;
nnd that by reviving every stale Blander
ever uttered ngainst this gcutcmnn, un
thinking or prejudiced peoplo would be
misled, and ltepublican candidates mea
surably injured Simon Cameron's fricuds
did not go out of their regular courso to
take special notice of his ussailants they
did not answer the slanders uttered on the
stump against him, and left unnoticed the
jourualisls who libeled him day after day.
The people were left free to judge for them
selves to decide upon the merits of tho
witnesses and the value of their statements.
Surely, Simon Cameron has no cause to
complain of the decision.
He has been tried by an immense jury
of his fellow citizens the prosecution' has
beeu allowed every license, the witnesses
against him were permitted to give their
testimony in their own style, and the ver
dict is in favor of the defenduut. Any
statesman ought to be proud of such a de
cree. It is a vindication when none was
sought, while violence aid virulence
prompted the prosecution. We have a
right here in Hamburg to congratulate
Simon Cameron. Tho evening ol his pub
lic and private life is thus hallowed by a
splendor or which those who love him mny
well be proud, and before which his native
State and the country may well pause in ad
miration, Hendric ks ran foe Governor of Indiana
to defeat Morton's re-electicn to the United
States Senate. He did not want the Gu
beroatoral chair, but calculated by ruuning
for that office, he could change the Legisla
ture, it would iusure his election to the
United States Senate. Hendricks, like
some of the Liberal and Democrat iu
Pennsylvania, has been wofully disappoint
ed. The horse epidemic prevails in Roches
ter to au alarming extent, fully one-half of

ctfrs, and in a circus company recently ar
rived in the city from Canada, every hors
is sick.
