A beaten foe should never be al lowed to rest, gather up its stragglers, and reform its lines. Grant's terse command "Push things" is as politic, and as applicable in politics, as in war. "Forward" is the word. In the natural exultation over our great victory of the 8th, we must not forget that the decisive battle is not yet won. After the most obstinate fight wc have ever had, we have beaten the enemy on his own chosen battle field, and their shattered colums are now on the run. Now is the time to "push things" until we have driven the wreck into the last ditch, and com pellod it to lay down its arms and surrender. Ilemember friends that we won this last great fight by steady work and thorough organization. So, while you are cheering h eartily over the result, do not neglect tj beat up for recruits, reform your line, be ready for the final rush in Novembe Had the army of the Potomac been able to follow up its victory the morn ing after Gettysburg, the broken and beaten columns of Lee would have been compelled to surrender before thev crossed the Potomac, and the rcboll ion would have been at an end. I5ut Meade's forces were themselves shattered, and unable to follow up and strike the crowning blow. Not so with the Republican hosts in this con flict W'c are stronger than ever, our force has been tested, our leaders proven, and the order rings down the lines "Push things." The old enemy is in front, broken and demoralized, hundreds arc daily straggling from his ranks, the apos tates that reinforced him in the late fight, have slunk away cowed and dismaj-ed. Once more to the breach dear friends, and a victory un precedented in our annals will crown the effort. THE VKBDKT. It was admitted by the whole coun try, that the result of the Octoler election wouldvirtually decide the Presidential contest Ohio and Indi ana were both claimed by the opposi tion, and the result in those States was looked for with anxiety, but the vote of Pennsylvania was regarded as the test Had we lost this Stat e the friends of Greeley would have confidently claimed that his election wan assured. Had we carried it by a small vote they would still have in sisted that it could be regaineifor him; but our sweeping majority has conclusively shown the country that the National Administration is strong er than ever in the confidence of the lieoiile of the Kevstone State, and a more conclusive popular verdict was never rendered, than the one pro nounced against Horace Greelet and his piebald following. Beaten so dceisivelv before the tribunal of their own selection, the friends of Mr Greeley have raised the crvof fraud, and clamorously assert that the .Judges (the people) were bought and cheated. Of J the absurdity, as well as feebleness of this cry any citi zen ofihe Union can satisfy himftlf, by examining the returns and noting the uniformitv of the trains through out the entire Commonwealth Weeks before the election they began to prepare for the result, by announ cing that a svstem of fraud was being organized to overwhelm the righteous verdict of the people, and no sooner were the large gains in Philadelphia announced than a shout of "fraud," was set up by every Dem-Lib organ in the land. But the steadv swell of the majority trom all sections of the State soon proved how ludicrous was the cry, and the solid Republican vote of Pennsylvania has satisfied the jK-ople of the country that the reelec tion of General Grant is already as sured. The verdict is rendered, and judgment has been entered thereon. As Pennsylvania goes bo goes the Union. Republicans of Somerset county, you did a glorious day's work on Tuesday the 8th. You redeemed your Congressional and Senatorial districts and, you piled up a magnifi cent majority almost t equal to the days of "Tippecanoe and Tyler too." But you can do better. Examine the returns and you will find that in ev ery township the majority might have been and can be increased. As the Tribune foolishly said of Gree let the other day "We are on the Lome stretch" By a little extra ex ertion tee can glee Grant two tlwu nand majority next month. What say you 1 Bring out the laggards, and the converts. Poll the full vote, and now for it, we will not fall short of two thousand majority. Pennsyl vania intends to give seventy five thousand majority for General Grant, and wc can furnish our full share of the quota if wc will. Now, for a pull, a strong pull, and a pull altogether. The Philadelphia Post collapsed on Tuesday. It was a prosperous Republican daily until Jane last, when McClcbe bought it upas a Greeley organ.

Thus Montgomery County, the "home" of Gen. Hart uanft vindi cates him from the slanders of his enemies, by t"rning completely around, giving Dvckalew majority of about 33 votes. It gave 1,084 majority for Packer, three years ago. Charles R. Buckalew, in his own "home" of Cclumbia county, is some three hundred short of the usual Democratic majority. Bellefonte, Centre county, the "home" of Andrew G. Cirtin, gives Gen. Hartraxft an increased vote of nearly two Hundred. Philadelphia, the "home" of Forney ana M dure, gives JIaistranft a majority of over 20,000. JI STH'E AT LAST. It will be remembered that Dechert (Dem.) was returned to the State Senate from the 1st district, two years ago, at a special election, by a majority of nearly two thousand, kuown at the time to be fraudulent, but which the Senate refused to in vestigate and allowed Dechert to hold the seat At the recent election the people of the district got a chance at Dechert, and beat him just 3,615! Last year, by the election of Gray (Rep.) in the 4th district, the Senate was again made Republican ; but this was cured by turuing him out under allegations of fraud and giving his seat to Col. A. K. McClure. This same district, which "McClire now pretends to represent, gave over 7,000 Republican majerity at the recent election 1 Franklin county gives Hart ran ft 323 majority. The Republi cans elect their entire county ticket by majorities ranging from 114 to 52C. Mahon beats Stenger for tho Legisla ture by 512 majority Stenger being next to the lowest on the Democratic ticket Cessna has 3C0 over Mey ers for Congress. Stewart, (Rep.) Sharps and Whitney, (Dem) arc elected Dele gates to the Constitutional Conven tion, from the Cumberland and Frank lin district Suarpe hating one more vote than Henderson, Rep.) C'OXftTITniOXAL DELEGATES. The Rcpuplicans have a majority of fire out of the 133 delegates com posing the Convention. The Convention will meet at liar risburg on Tuesday the Uh day of Xocember. The impression appears to be that the Republicans will present the name of the non. William M. Meredith, of Philadelphia, for Chairman of the Convention. Mr. Meredith was a memlKT of the convention of 1838. The Governor-elect, Gen. John F. Hartranft, was serenaded at his home in NorriHown on Friday even ing, when he made a brief sjK-ech, in which he declared that he would not rest until the money certain persons had confessed had been stolen from the Treasury was restored. General Hartranft is a man of his word, and will make the craven crew who have been abusing him for the past three months pay dearly for their slanders. THE l-ONUKEftAIONAL DISTRICT.

Washington, October 17, 1872. dissimulation exposed. Your correspondent has always as serted that the change of front assu med by the Democratic party at their Baltimore convention was not made in pursuance of any real change of their pro-slavery and disloyal princi ples proclaimed before, during aud since the rebellion, but in fraudulent dissimulation of their real sentiments, for the purpose of getting office . This, we have asserted, is especially true of the Southern ex-rebels, who, almost to a man, retain the same sen timents upon which the campaign of 18C3 was prosecuted. These, how ever, are the very men who want of fice the worst, and who therefore cry out loudest in favor ot tne milder views of the Cincinnati platform, as exposed at Baltimore. Since the disastrous results of the October elections have made the weak ness of the Greeley coalition appar ent, 6ome of the Democratic papers both North and South, begin to disa vow the humbug that was cooked up at Baltimore, and are now engaged in vomiting the crow which their heated stomachs can not any longer retain, and refuse to digest. The last sample of this very natu ral result of the bolting of food in compatible with Southern stomachs, is given in a recent editorial of that unscrupulous Greeley organ, the Sa vannah AVir. It says: " What is to be the effect of these elections on the Presidential canvass a few davs will develop. It is very possible that the loss of these States will give a new impetus to the "Straight-out" movement, orid that thousands of Democrats who had made up their minds to the esjyediency of sustainine the Cincinnati nomi nees u ill fall back vfon the prinei nles irhich then have vever aban doned, and either vote the " Straight- out" ticket or take no interest in the contest." This confession of fraud and dis honesty at Baltimore is called forth by the manifest prospect of utter de- feat under the coalition, and is only made when there is nothing to gain by further dissembling. Yet Greeley and Sumner were seconded by some of the verdant Republicans in their assurances that the Democrats wanted conciliation, earnestly desire pacifica tion of the country, and would faith fullv carry out the amendments to the Constitution and the Reconstruc tion laws. Gen. Hunter, Hon. Jere, S. Black, Gov. Smvth, of Marvland, and other of their great leaders de nied this opeuly, aud every time a sincere Democrat speaks upon the subject he gives it the lie directly or indirectly; yet despite these damning proofs of their hypocrisy we are still called upon 10 oeneve iu me iioncyij of the coalition. INDIANA ELECTION ANOMALY. The Chicago Times (Democratic) thinks there are fifty thousand Demo cratic votes in Indiana which will le cast for O'Connor and Adams, and that if the coalition ticket were with drawn, as it should be, they would carry the electors -against Grant. This may not lie conclusively com puted, hut the defeat of Greeley and Brown in that State on the present political status by twenty thousand majority lor urant may ocrcauny in ferred from the Republican majorities for Confrressmcn and the Legislature, which latter result ensures the re-election to the Senate of Senator Mor ton. The election of Hendricks for Governor is now found to be owing to the Temperance vote in his favor, and not, as at first supposed, solely to his Funerior personal popularity. The Temperance party kept their nomi nation a secret, for if it had been gen erally known to the Democracy their love of spiritual power would have leen likely to have defeated the Tem- ncranec candidate. There is no lonrrcr an attempt among respectable journals to claim Indiana for Greeley in November. CAPITAL ITEMS. The House Committee on Appro priations will meet here in a few days, when the book of estimates will be "ready and they will commence to prepare the bills, in order that no considerable detention may be re quired after the assembling of Con gress next month. They will com mence their labors two weeks in ad vance of the session so that this, which is the short session and closes on the 4th of ncxt March, may not be annoyed by delays which the preparation of appropriation bills usually causes. The Pension, West Point," Fortification, and other bills will be ready to rcjwrt early in the session, fome oi me commiueesarc already here. Gov. Henry D. Cooke and Gen. N. P. Chipman, accompanied by Messrs. A. R. Shepherd, Wm. A. Cook, Henry A. Jones, and John H. Brooks called upon the President yesterday and congratulated him upon the result of the recent elections.

A fire broke out about ten o'clock last night at Sandusky, Ohio in the dry room attached to the Walmouth handle works building, and all the stock and machinery were. destroyed. The flames extended west to the lumber yard of Lea & Moss, but was soon extinguished. It also extended east to the lumber yard of I. Gilehcr & Co., destroying about 300,000 feet of lumber. The loss on the handle works is about $4,000 ; insured for 115,000. Lea k Moss lost about $4,000 ; insured. ' Gilchar & Co.'s loss is about $30,000 ; insured for about $20,000.

ELECTORAL COLLEGE FOR 1872, The electoral vote for President in 1872, says the Harrisburg Telegraph, will be considerably greater than it was in 18C8, under the previous ap portionment -Many Mates have in creased their respective rotes, and several States which did not vote at all in 1868 will now take part in the election.

Between one and four o'clock this morning the Saratoga county bank was the scene of the most dar ing and outrageous robbery ever per petrated in this vicinity. The cashier's residence over the bank was entered by eight masked men, and the en tire family composed of the cashier, Mr. Van Iloevanbaugh, his wife, and two daughters, a young son, and a servant girl, were bound and gagged. Mr. an llcevanbaugb was then led into the bank room where his captors stopped in front of the vault door. ith horrible oaths and imprecations of vengeance upon his bead if be dis obeyed orders, he was commanded to unlock the vault With his arms secured he commenced to work. He pretended to have forgotten the com bination, and made numerous excuses, but they would not hearken to him and threatened to blow his brains out if he did not open the doors immedi ately. He finally opened the doors for them when they thoroughly ransacked the contents. After securing a large amount of money in bonds, etc., they deserted, and threatening death to the helpless cashier if he gave the alarm or atempted pursnit, they left the build ing with the utmost haste and secrecy. The loss is estimated between $250, 000 and $300,000. The bank, how ever, only loses about $10,000, the re mainder being special deposits of bonds, registered and unregistered, and Railroad stocks. The thieves may have succeeded in disposing of the bonds. The numbers have been obtained, but whoever purchases them will undoubtedly lose by the transaction. The burglars' alarm, which connects with the counting room at the cashier's sleeping apart ment, was not tampered with. The board of directors of the bank offer a reward of $5,000 for the arrest of the thieves and $5,000 additional for the return of the securities. Ilartranft's Official Majority 35.C2T. NICK POLITICIAN. THE ENEMIES OF HARTRANFT. The New Haven Palladium says; The most forlorn man in4 Pennsyl vania, to-day. is Col. Forney. His plot failed, aud ho stands before the people a discredited slanderer. Even if he were to come out openly for Greeley he would be no better off. He is the deadest of dead ducks, and tho political influence of himself and his newspaper is shown to amount to nothing in a State he thought ho could rule. It is probable that he will soon be given an opportunity to explain his connection with some little financial operations. Another gentleman, whohnd a bad tumble in the mud, is ex-Governor Curfcin, who must by this time regret he did not stay a few months longer at the other side of the Atlantic. His influence has been found not to exist, his trnraiivt voice aroused no echo, and his friends have cut his ac quaintance. M'Clure, it is said, has a knack of falling on his feet, and he is now accused by some of his lib eral friends of having sold them out. cry likely he did. The result of the campaign is especialy gratifying as proving that an innocent and hon orable man, who has the pluck to face his slanderers, cannot be des troyed. If General Hartranft had retired for the sake of peace he would not have had so magnificent a vindication as he has now received at the hands of his fellow citizens. The prate about his having secured his election by fraudulent votes is nothiug but the whine of disappointed and defected partisans. He was elected by the people even without tho vote of Phil adelphia, though the Liberal Demo cratic coalitionists claimed they would have a large majority outside that city. Forney's paper, which dill all i t could to defeat the Republican can didates, says: "It would be folly to allege that the great majority or Hartranft is the offspring of fraud. We believe it to be a legitimate maj ority the growth of several causes that lie so plainly on the surface of the contest that all may understand and study." This testimony ought to be conclusive, and will be with all fairminded people. OHIO. OIHelal Betarna of the Keren t Election. Columbus, October 20. Official returns have been received from all the counties in Ohio, and show the following Republican majorities for State ofliccrs: For Secretary of State, Allen Wi koff, 14,055 majority.

Washixuto.v, October 11, By the President of the States of America. A PROCLAMATION. 1872. United Whereas, The revolution of an other year has again brought a time when it is usual to look back upon the past and publicey thank the Al mighty for His mercies amfllis bles sings, and Whereas, If any one people has more occasion than another for such thankfulness, it is the citizens of the United States, whose Government is their creature, subicct to their le- hests, who have reserved to them selves ample civil and religious free dom and equality before the law, who during the last twelve months have enjoyed exemption from any grievous or general calamity, and to whom prosperity in agriculture, manufac tures and commerce has been vouch safed. Therefore, by these considerations, I recommend that on Thursday, the twenty-eighth day of Xovcinbcr next, tho people meet in their respective places of worship, and there make ac knowledgment to God for His kind ness and bounty. - , In witness whereof I hereunto set my hand and cause the seal of the L nitcd Mates to be affixed. Done at tho city of Washington this eleventh day of October, in the year of our Lord ono thousand eight hundred and seventy-two, and of the independence of the United States the ninety-seveuth. Signed. U. S. Grant. By tho President Hamilton Fisn, Secretary of State. Attempted Bank Bnrfjlary. The night liefore last a bold but unsuccessful attempt. was made by a party of ruffians to rob the Lacka wanna Yalley bank. The bank is lo cated on tho busiest part of Lacka wanna avenue, above Wyoming, and just opposite the Wyoming house, and in the second story front room George P. Kingsbury, esq., one of the firm of Suuderson X Co., who own tho bank, and who is the cashier, has a room where he lodges in single blessedness. About eleven o'clock on Wednesday night he came home and on reaching: the head of tho stairs leading to his room was assaulted by three men, who garroled him and on his crying murder, knocked him down with a slung bltot or some heavy weapon, telling him at the same time if he made any more noise it would be worse for him. They then hand cuffed his hands behind him. and taking the keys from his pockets took him into his room, and throwing him on the bed, proceeded in a manner that would have dono credit to the Spanis-h inquisition to extract from mil the whereabouts of the bank keys. They put a small rope around his neck and bid him tell where the keys were, and when he told he did not have them, or know where thev were, twisted the rope up almost to the choking point and held it there awhile. Then they demanded them again until Mr. K. was totally ex hausted, and they finally accepted the truth that Mr. Renshaw, the teller, had them. They did not give up, however, until they had over hauled and looked into every nook and cranny of the room, turning everything topsy-turvy" in doing so. 1 hey then sat Mr. Kingsbury up in bed, gagged him, and tied his body to the head-board and his feet to the foot of .the beadstcad, and left him, taking the key of the door along. Mr. K. immediately commenced making efforts for his release, but it was one o'clock before he succeeded in getting one boot off and freeing his met, whereby he was enabled to sit np enough to let the rope slip over the head-board and he was free all but the handenffs. He then man aged to raise a window and called several times, but was unable to at tract attention. In about half an hour Dr. Burns, who had been out, came along and was hailed, and told to procure assistance, which he did. Mr. C. W. Roesler was got up, who cut the handcuffs apart, and they were afterwards taken off by Mar shal Stevens, who found a key to fit. Mr. Kingsbury's room when we visited it yesterday morning presented a very sanguinary appearance, and there had evidently been a severe struggle, though we should not regard Mr. K. as a muscular man or one at all calculated to cope with three de termined desperadoes who evidently would have had no hesitation in taking his life. He is severely cut about the head and face, and bis wrists lacerated from the handcuffs. The scoundrels of course made ofT when they found their cfTort9 at rob bery, baffled, and up to this time no clue has been had to their identity. This peril should prove a warning to Mr. Kingsbury and all other elder ly gentlemen who occupy responsible positions, to provide themselves with room mates with reliable lungs capa ble of raising an alarm under similar circumstances. Scranton Time, October 11. NOrTII 4 AROI.UA. Regular Rcpublleaa Ticket Elerted. Columbia, October 1G. In the State election . to-day for Governor, State officers and five Congressmen, the only decided opposition offered by the Democrats was in the Fifth listrict, where Hon. B. Perry, ex Provisional Governor under J ohnson's administration, was nominated for Congress. It is thought that he is elected, defeating Wallace, the pres ent incumbent. It is gem ; lly con ceded that the regular Republican State ticket, with Moses for Govern or, is elected, defeating what is known as the bolters' ticket, with Tonilinson as candidate for Governor. Charleston, OctolK-r 1G. Every thing passed off quietly at the elec tions to-day. No conclusive returns are in, but tho probabilities are that Moses and the regular Republican ticket are elected by a large majority. Htssonri. Kansas City, October 16. A far mer named Hunt with his wife and two children, who were living on a claim some distance from a neighbor hood had their house built of stone and roofed with dirt and sod, suppor ted with timbers. One night as some persons were returning from a dance they found that the roof of the house had fallen in upon the family as thev slept in their beds. The party went at once to relieve them and found the mother and two children "dead and the father so fastened and held in his place that he was even powerless to help himself. The roof was very heavy and came down with crushing force upon the inmates of the fatal house. The Vnlran Rollins; Mills tiittl Barned. at flneln- Cincinnati, October 1G. The Vul ca rollingu mills, situated in the Tweu first ward, opposite Eighth street and west of Mill Creek, were totally de stroyed by fire about one o'clock thia morning.

The fire spread with marvelous rapid- . . -ass 1 1st it)', ana beiore au autriii count tie sounded the flames had enveloped the grocery store, mill, and the saloons or (jeorgtt Lambert and John Mason, to gether with the dairy of John David son. The saloons and dairy were old flimsy wooden buildings of about two stories in height, and fronting on Evans street. The mill was owned hy J. 15. Evans, Thomas Clefton and Thomas Evans. Tho less on the mill is estimated at seventy-five thousand dollars, on which there was not one cent of insurance. The loss on the other buildings is about five thousand two hundred dollars. Nlnzolar Snlclde. Patton, Ohio, Oct., 1C A man supposed to be John. E. Raspe, of Vernon, 111., was fonnd in a dying condition on the platform of a car, on its arrival here from Cincinnati at midnight Tuesday night. On exam ination it was discorercd that ho had been shot through the head. He was taken to the depot, when he died at six o'clock this moruing.

He had in his possession $234 in money. Letters fouud in his possession led to bis iden tification. The body is held by the coroner until claimed by friends. of a Minister. Delaware, O. October 1 4. Great excitement wus created here yester day by the . Duouncinitnt that Rev. J. J. Kennedy, a prominent minister of tho Methodist Kpiscopal church, residing here, hadcommitcd Mih-ide. It appears that for some time past Mr. Kennedy has been a victim at intervals of very serious atttacks of mental depression, caused, it is dp posed, by afflictions met with in the loss of two interesting daughters. The fatal act was conunited yester day just after the Sunday school had adjourned and preparatory to the morning preaching service. The place was '. he cellar of his residence j in this city and the weapon a revolver. le shot himself turougn luc iii an 'ived but a few hours after the deed w taS committed.
