"A sentiment not to be appalled, corrupted or
eompiromised. It knows no baseness; it cowers to
un damp.; it oppresses no weakness. Destructive
only ofdespotism; it is the sole conservator of lib
erty, labor and property. it is the sentiment of
Freedom, of equal rights, of equal obligations—the
law of nature pervading the law of the land."

Get Assessed !
We caution Democratic voters o'l over
the County to get themselves assessedim
mediately, and, if they have not paid a
&Ate or county tax within two years, to
pay the tax and get a receipt. A person
al attention to this matter and seeing your
name erisemd, or having the Collector's re
ceipt at the polls, will prevent a dishonest
Abolition Assessor from depriving you of
tile riglit to vote.
DECLINES.
As we anticipates,. JOHN LINDSEY,
Esq., declines the Republican nomination
for th. 3 Senate in this District.
Beware of the League !
We understand the 'Loyal' (!) Leaguers
are trying to corrupt Democrats in differ-
ent parts of the county, by seducing them
it their dark-lantern, Abolition dens.—
tet all good and true Democrats
avoid these secret conclaves, as they
would the pestilence. They are gotten up
by Abolition disunion conspirators, and
are intended to strengthen their hands
and to commit Democrats to all their
crazy and fanatical Nigger freeing
schemes. Keep out of them., as you
prize your liberties and desire the perpet
illation of the 43rovernment of your fathers.
Miserable Failures.
The meetings being held by the A!toli-
Aionists throughout the county are prov
ing, as we predicted they would, miserable
failures. At New Freeport they'had 'some
•25 or 30 souls, all told At Newtown:
they hal about the same number. At the
White Cottage, it is estimated, they had
fully 60 or 70, Abolitionists, Democrats,
women and boys and they did but little
better at Joileytown. Lawrence lost his
&Ist New Freeport, and has been search- .
ing for him vainly ever since. 11e was a

That there is any difference between a

Money in our next Elections.
have heard more than one intima
tion that money will be lavishly used in
our approaching elections by the Repub
licans. We never doubted this. Shoddy
contractors and fat jobbers, both State
and National. abound now as they never
did before. These plunderers of the hard
earnings of the people will hold their
grasp on the Treasury with the tenacity
of death itself. Superadded to the ordi
nary causes for the corrupt expenditure of
money in this election will be the desire
of the Pennsylvania Railroad to 'reward
Gov. Curtin for engineering through the
Legislature ai.d signing the bill for the
Repeal of the Tonnage Tax, by which
that Company saved millions, IYresent and
prospective, and to defeat the able, up
right and uncompeomisint Hopkins, who
has so gallantly straggled for the past
two years to defeat that iniwitous and
daring act of public plunder on the part
of the Railroad.
Our object, however, at this time, is
merely to call attention to the following
provision of an act of Asetubly upon the
subject of bribery at elections :
"It any elector shall receive any gift or
reward for his vote, in meat, drink, money
or otl►erwise, be shall forfeit his right to
vote at that election, and shall cm convic
tion, be fined in any sum not exceeding
ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS, and SUF
FER IMPRISONMENT for a term of
NOT LESS THAN ONE MONTH, and
NOT MORE THAN• SIX MONTHS "
It any person shall give or bestow spy
such gift or reward in order to procure
any person to be elected, or shall prom
ise or attempt, either directly or indirect
ly, to confer any such gift or reward for
such purpose, or shall attempt:or endeav
or tto influence apy voter by any offer or
promise of any appointment, employ
ment or pecuniary benefit, or a threat of
loss of any appointment, employment or
pecuniary benefit, he shall, on conviction,
be fined in sum not less than ONE
HUNDRED DOLLARS, nor exceeding
ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS, and suffer
imprisonment not less than ONE nor more
than TWELVE MONTHS."
J. A. J. Buchanan, Esq.
The political whereabouts of this gen
tlemen may be pretty definitely ascertained
from the following paragraphs. "Union"
in name, the meetings mentioned are "Re
publican" in fact,—only the old Abolition
skunk in a new hole :

Badly Burnt
The Abolitionists have been badly
burnt in Gov. Bramlette, of Kentucky.—
He says in his Inaugural Address; "We
have now, and will have when the rebel
lion closes, the identical Constitution
which the extremists seek to destroy—the
one by innovation, the other by force. It
is not a restored Union, not a recon-

"THE. TICKET, THE WHOLE TICKET, AND
NOTHIN BUT THE TICKET."
A SOLID SHOT THIS TIME,
After cursing andabusitig the Democrats
as "Copperheads" and "Traitors" the ab
olitionists are now busy begging Democrat
ic votes for their candidates. There is
not a Dem.Dere, in the county who has'not
been stigmatized as a "Seceddiouist" or
"Copperhead° or a "Tory," and the Abo
litionists will find out on the 2d Tuesday
of October that this fact will be remem
bered. Democrats can't "split" nor
"scratch" this time, to accammotiate
wbo want them hanged. Every true Dem
crat in Bedford county will fire a SOLID
IHOT—a whole, pure, unadulterated, un
scratched .ticket—at litk At foe, at
the next election. Mark that !-•-Bedfor I
Gazette.
• lAnd they'll do "that same" in this
quarter, brother Myers. "The clean
ticket this time" is the watchword in Lit
tle Greene.
The Public Debt.
It has been aunounced.from headquar
ters that that portion of the National
Debt which is represented by bonds and
notes, was, on the first of July last, all
but ELEVEN HUNDRED MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS ! Anil this does not in
clude the amount due discharged soldiers,
the representatives of discharged soldiers,
back pay, pension or bounty money, nor
any of the many thousands of claims
against the Government which have not
yet passed audit. It will soon be swelled
to TWO THOUSAND MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS! What a consoling thought
(?) to the tax-payers of the country whow
the Abolitionists are trying to persuade
that it is a blessing. All the young, able
bodied men they compel tg go to war, and
the old men they burden with taxes. A
few more years of Abolition rule and the
earth will be covered with blood and
greenbacks. .God save the country ! if
they get an extension of their lease of
despotism, anarchy and misrule.
THE RECORD.
"I know tiae Detuocracy of the North.
know theinnow is their waning strength.
Ido not know a possible disunionist
among them all. -I believe they will be
as faithful to the talon now as they were
in byotte days when their ranks were
full, and their challenge to the contest
was always the war-cry of victory."—
William H. Seward, tB6l.
There is the record of tbe Democratic
party, written by one of its bitterest op
ponents; &ad since it was penned no Dem
ocrat of the North has breathed disunion;
but all stand to-day, where they stood of
yore, upon the platform of the integrity of
the Union And Constitution. Can Seward
say as much of own party friends, Ste
vens, Bingham, Conway, Phillips, Cassius
Clay, Horace Greeley, and others of
the leaders of the administration party ?
No'. They are one and all for disunion,
unless reconstruction is upon the basis of
emancipation and amalgamation.
A OONTR AST.
la the report of Mr. Beel.vith, of the
Bedford Street Mission, he says ;
"A soldier's wife was taken oft' of tbe
pavement, doctored, nursed and cared for,
when no one would touch her ; sent to
the Almshou9e, as we had no one to keep
her ; and her husband called, soon after
his return from the army, to take her ;
but when we removed her from the street
she was speechless, and supposed dying."
And in one of our exchanges we find the
following paraeraph :
"A three thousand-dollar Cashmere
shawl !—just imported by Stuart express
ly for her--is one of the articles w Miss
Kate Cltase's trousseau."
AN ABOLITION WITNESS.
Mr. Washburne, of Illinois. a leading
AJthinTitratien member of Congress, ut
tered the following woria in the National
House of Representatives on the 29th of
April, 1862:
"As the oldest member present, repre
senting a constituency for ten years. 1
should deem myself but a miscreant rep
resentative if I stood here as the defender
of the robberies and the plunderings go
ing on against the public Treasury."
"The "robberies" and "plunderings" re
ferred to by Mr. Washburue were com
mitted, according to Abolition testimony,
I .,hy the friends and 'adherents of the Nation
al and State Adruisistration. Will the
people any longer continue these bad men
in power, and permit them still further to
plunder the National Treasury?—Let them
answer at the ballot-box!
THE WAY THEY TALL
Col. Win. M. Stone, the Administration
candidate for Governor of lowa, in a re
cent speech made at Keokuk, said :
"I admit that this is an Abolition war.
It was not such in the start ; but the ad
ministration has discovered that it could
not subdue the South else than by mak
ing it an abolition war, and they have
done so; and it will be continued as an
abolition war so long as there is one
slave at the South to be made free. * *
* I would rather eat with a nigger,
drink with a nigger, live with a nigger,
and sleep with a nigger than with a cop
perhead."

TUE 7/ arIVII IT UP !
The Pittsburgh Dispatch, the advocate
of soldier flogging and Abolitionism, in
its issue of the sth of August, said :
"With any man of ability, clearrecord,
and above all honesty, the trium4th of the
Union party is secure ; the nomina
tion of Curtin will be tanta
mount to defeat to the party,
and for this result the Union men should
hold the Convention personally responsi
ble."
HOW THE MONEY GOES,
The Joliti3town Democrat says that an
army contractor, who was formerly a reel•
dent 0/Cambria county, a few days ago
exhibited to a friend in Harrisburg a.gov
ernment bond for one hundred and ninety
thousand dollars, and another for nine
thousand. He states that he had assign
ed government bonds to the amount of
one hundred thousand dollars to each of
hie children. By his own showing he is
now a millionaire. This is more notable
from the tact that two years ago he was
not worth a dollar. This one fact will
serve to show the people where the public
treasure goes, and why certain
gentlemen are so anxious, for a "vigorous
prosecution of the war."
DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE.
"While the army is fighting, you, as
citizens, see that the war is prosecuted
for the preservation of the Union and the
Constitution of your nationality and your
rights as citizens."—General George B.
•
That is Democratic doctrine.
"Nip the shoots of arbitrary power in
the bud, i 3 the only maxim which can
ever pieserve the liberties of any people,
When the people give way, their deceiv
ers, betrayers and destroyers press upon
then' so fast that there is no resisting af
terwards. The nature of tyranny is so ei,-
croaching; like a cancer it eats faster and
faster every hour." —Joh4, Adams, as No
yang/as, 1775.
That is DeruoCratic docttine.
"Those t) whom power is delegated
should be held to a strict accountability
to their Constitutional oaths of office.—
The plea of necessity is no excuse for a
violation of them, Recollect : `The price
of liberty is eternal vigilance.' Are
men traitors who follow the teachings
and advice of such men ?" —2Aomas Jefer
son.
That 18 Democratic doctrine.
"The military should be kept in strict
subordination to the civil power ; the
freedom of the press and of religions opin
ion should be inviolate ; the policy of
our country is peace, and the ark of our
salvation is Union.—. President J. Q. Ad
ams.
That, too, is Democratic doctrine.

SHODDY OSSTIN.
The soldiers who wore -the shoddy
clothes, about the time of the beginning
of the war, and when at tarrisburg.
threw a pile of them into the Governor's
yard, will doubtless remember the patriotic
Chief Executiv9 and his swindling part
ners in that nefarious transaction. The
vote of the soldiers, where they are left
untrammeled, will never be given to Gov.
Curtin.

times, in 1800, at the expense of the Re

But the following; from the Newbury;
port Herald, aR °publican paper, is more.
significant : -
"Seven-eights of the people, all of them
out of New England, except such as have
freshly emigrated from here, and a few
red Republican Germans, would be in fa
vor of a restoration of the Union upon
the old basis, leaving all questions of lo
cal iostittutions aside, and letting the
punishment of the rebel leaders take place
under national or State laws, as they. have
always existed. If, therefore, the opposi
tion should make this the grand issue,
they would force the Republicans to say
yes or no to it. If they assented, the
North would be a unit with the exception
of the abolitionists, who woula not carry
more than two States for their theory of
subjugation, exterwination, ruination, and
damnation. If, on the other hand, the
radicals should get the ascendancy in the
conventions, and say no to the proposition
for restoring the Union as it was, then
they would fall into a lesser minority than
did the Whig party of 1832.
All this is true as gospel.
THE VERMONT ELEOTIOt---GREAT
DEMOORATIO GAIN.
The Burlington, Vt., Sentinel of the 4th
•
inet., says that the returns of the election
held in that State on the Ist inst., are suf
ficient to show a very handsome Demo
cratic gain upon the vote of last year.—
The Democrats have probably cast twelve
thousand votes to less than three thous
awl last year. This has been done with
a very imperfect organization and scarce
ly any exettion. The Democrats have
elected two Senators, Chamberlin in Cale
donia, and Bean in Orange county, and
perhaps, Hudghton in Bennington. coun
ty. The Democrats will have from twen
ty-five to thirty members in the House.-
Ity another year, even the (heed Moun
tain State may be redeemed.
A HEW "COPPERHEAD."
An exchange enumerates, in a list of
new converts to "Copperheadism," Gen
eral F. P. Blair. In a recent speech at St.
Louis, General Blair said that he desired
"the re-establishment of the Union as it
was." He repudiates, as all sensible and
Uuion-loving men do, tend will repudiate
the doctrine that any State has ever been
lawfully witdrawn from the Union.
TROOPS AT ELECTIONS.
By the 95th section of the Act of As
sembly of the State of Pennsylvania of 2.1
July, 1839, it is enacted that—
"NO BODY OF TROOPS IN THE
ARMY OF THE UNITED STATES, OR
OF THIS COMMONW EA LTH, SHALL
BE PRESENT EITHER ARMED OR
UNARMED AT ANY PLACE OF ELEC
TION WITHIN THIS COMMON-
WEALTU, DURING THE TIME OF
SUCH ELECTION."
Lincoln and Vallandigham
When Abraham Lincoln was in Con
gress in 1848 he voted against giving the
soldiers who had served, in the Mexican
war one hundred and sixty acres, of land.
But Clement L. Vallaudighaw pn the
28th day of February, 1862, voted in Con
gress to give each soldier engaged in put
ting down the rebellion one hundred and
sixty acres of land in addition to his one
hundred dollars bounty.
IS IT SO ?
It has been estimated that the conscripts
will cost the Geverntpont four or five
thousand dollars spies. If this be so—
which seems almost increditris—the same
amount would have procured, as volun
teers, Ave times the number of men.
WHIM IS LOYAL ?
"The will of the Prenident is above the
Constitution and the laws. Whoever dis
putes this is a sympathizer with seces
sion."—The Republimn Party.
"The laws of the United Statessoust be
executed. I have no discretionary power
on tire subject,"—President Andrew .Ictek
son.
12141-The Pittsburgh Ciasette, the princi
pal Administration newspaper published
west of the Alleghenies, lxoldly asserted,
at the time the Abolitionists were engaged
in their contest for the Gubernatorial nom
ination, that "ANDREW G. CURTIN had int
posed upon the soldiers by farming them
out to his friends and then denying that
he had employed them." We believe that
our ttrnbitious Governor now claims the
title of the "soldier's friend."
ger- A desponding Abolition editor says
that "it is not the pleasantest occupation
in the world to publish a Republican pa
per now." There may be more agreeable
occupations, but there are certainly none
meatier.
