How OiL Ditli Went In for Putting Down
the Rebellion. ; :
Th» following choice extracts from the Boy
lesiown Democrat, of which Cd. Lf-vis, the
present Democratic candidate for Auditor Gen
eral of this State, was and is the editor and
proprietor, are given for the purposes nf show
ing the sentiments which were disseminated by
that paper while be held an offieid position un
der the Governroenf which bitterly
assailed in its pages. 'As GoldDaMs is how
before the people as a candidate dor public
office,- and is desirous of receiving ■ teit votes,
and ainoe he was undoubtedly not inated on
acoonnt of his having been engaged in the war,
and therefore likely to bo more av ipable be
fore the public on that account, it fs hot just
‘that the kind of aid his newspape? rendered
the Government, and the sympathy 1 it extend
ed to its noble, illustrious and lamented -chief
in his efforts to crush out treason and rebellion,
should be again given to the cntnmdoity.
An editorial article in the Democrat ’of Au
gn«t 233, 1864, when Col. Davis woe still an
officer in the army, reads ne follower
"Wiffi an immense army, a good navy, and
the ports"of the Confederacy, blockaded, we.
gained virtually nothing, and will have
gtrnsd'bo’tfimg until we defeat they, two miiu
arniiev-of the South. "The reasotS why. we
have’been so unfortunate are plaixi nod under
standable/ Mr. Lincoln committed'! himself to
ah emancipation policy. He hereby abandon
ed tbe wor for re-uriioft, and maos it a- war
absolutely and unequivocally for the, negro.—
“ Slavery shall not live" - was'hiq tpofto. Be
ytmd this was an object dearer .to his heart—
his own re-election —which he' esteemed - more
lhan a hundred thousand lives,-. The so were
his two motives for abandoning the - principles
of- our governroent, and of perverting the war.
For these purposes, and these only, has the
war been prolonged; for these purposes were
the-sdldiere massacred at Olustee, and the army
pf 6'neral Grant defeated and -foiled; for
dhese purposes has another draft been ordered ;
'fbr-thesS purposes-have elections been, carried
by force of arms, spd “ bogus Stat/s". declared
in the Union ; for these purposes have the forts
and bastiies of the country been’ filled with
•fearless patriots who dare expose the profligacy
of Abolition, and the corruption and despotism
of Abraham Lincoln. •
‘ “ The people are now to decide 1 * between this
slate of affairs', and peaeer—between the joldj
Government end a new despotism—between
the old'Government an da new despotiam—be
'tweenthe protection of our liberties and the
surrender of them to an arbitrary and perfidi-
ous 1 ruler;- Peace ended, with the administra
tion of 'James Buchanan, and vr. ,r, bloody, re
morseless- war, began with the inauguration of
“Abraham Lincoln]. We have. tried war for
’'three-years; let ns now try to' eflfect what,war
has failed to' do. There is no doubt- that Mr.
Lincoln bee done more to cement the States.of
the Confederacy together than any man on the
"Continent. He has pursued Vffalioy calculated
to divide the sentiment of .the North, and har
monize that of Ithe South. Yet he has now
"the presumption to ask a re-election. The
question will be: Lincoln and hjs war, or the
Chicago nominee and peace fiVce-union.
- “ It is a mistaken idea that pss ie means slavish
- - - "SI - Ti -i
nothing of the kind.' No ever ex
pressed bis willingness to aol'oede to dishon
orable compromise. We hav i’tried war and
; found by aead experience thai it is supremely
profitless, and that Lincoln add his hirelings
are inoapable.of managing a campaign success-,
fnl if they wished. Somethi^. must be done.
Democratic, party] 1 proposes, if we.judge
j-upright, to restore the Union ip9der the Consti
_ jtotion by peaceable means. Lincolfv has
. pat the prolongation of the wj r out of the ques
tion. Our nation is almost bar lerapt, and every
branch of industry is suffering .fox want of men
therefore ere men called upon to join the stand
ard of peace for re-union, ant defeat the party
in power which is no mqirel nor less 1 than a
thoroughly disunion party.”.".
Again, from a leading editorial of August 30]
the week after, we quote the bllowingd
“ The Confederates oonten i that they have
made an agreement with the Federate for the
proper and speedy exchange )f prisoners; . that
they have faithfully observed the provisions of
it, and have frequently prop: sed exchange on
its basis.- But Mr. Lincoln says no.. He .will
permit the white soldier of the North to rot in
the scorching snn, and'the Federal arpiy to be
come a skeleton, before be wilV agree to an ex

The whites mny die in fnrt i and prison-camps,

The above is only a es topic of the numerous'
, productions of a like chWeter that have ap
. pewed in that paper, during ; the war, more of
which may appearin our.eolumns hereafter.

General Election—Tuesday, Oc-
REPUBLICANS; have -yon attended to the
very important work of ASSESSING the sol-,
diere, and all others not hitherto assessed, in
your neighborhood f If ndt, do so at once. '
Let every man cut out the ticket' at the head
of this column for reference on 'election day;
It is made dp of -the true-blue sort. of -men—
most of whom .have served their country in the
fipld, and all of them have stood by the Gov
ernment steadfastly in Its great trial.
The result of the Senatorial Conference at
Coudersport last Tnesday was_tbe nomination
of Warren Cowles, Esq., of McKean county.
Mr: Cowles-is a gentleman of stainless repute,
liberal education and fine culture. He is a law
yer by profession, and- an honest one. We
have,known him asafirm and earnest anti
slavery man for the last twelve years—one who
could give a reason for the faith be cherished.
’ in ptind nrith
an ever present desire to increase man's capac
ity for usefulness, Captain Cowles" cannot but
represent the .district with fidelity and ability.;
Capt. Cowles received an Academic- educa
tion at Kingston, Luzerne Co. Pa.,whence he,
went to Texas' University :as a teacher of.
Mathematics. Herarhe was graduated, receiv
ing bis degree. Health failing, he made an
overland trip to : - California, during which he
endured - many hardships, on one occasion
walking 100 miles without food or rest. On
bis return to Texas be accepted A Professorship
in Baylor University, a Baptist school, where
he remained two years, occupying the Presi
dent’s Chair most of that time.. .Resigning, he
returned to Pennsylvania and commenced the
study of law with -H. W. Nicholson, Eeq., of
Wilkesbarre. He becsme a citizen of McKean
Co. in 1854.. ' r .
Last August a year, he received authority
from Gov. Curtin to raise a Company, and in
four days reported with full ranks at Camp
Curtin] His was the Color Company of the
211th P. Y., and. thus occupied the post of
danger in the field. . .
How much may depend npon the labor- that
may be done in the space of twenty days!
Kingdoms have been won by the labor of
twenty days. States have perished through
the apathy and neglect of their citizens daring
the little space of twenty days !
TWENTY DAYS, from this 20 th day of
September the freemen .of Pennsylvania will
endeavor to decide which party is to. control
the destinies of this Commonwealth. They
have to decide whether its destinies shall be
committed 1 to the keeping of the friends of Jeff
Davis, or to the keeping of those who, have
stood unflinchingly by the country daring its
four years of desperate war for existence.
That.is the question. Shall .we control the
State.of Pennsylvania, or shall the State pass
into the bands of such traitors as Hughes,
Woodward and Reed—men who declared that
Pennsylvania’ ought to make 'common cause
with the Sooth against the Administration of
Abraham Lincoln I
It is agreed on all .hands that the responsi
bility rests upon the freemen of the Republi
can strongholds. For one,' we accept the re
sponsibility.; and for the nest twenty days, as
in the last, twelve years, we shall. give every
energy to the work prescribed.,
And what we require of ourself, we earnest
ly ask of every Union man in Tioga county.
We ask nothing that we are not ready to give.
We ask, no man to. lead in either sacrifice or
labor. Cons on I
Do you know what the leading-men in. the
center and southern part of the State say of
us here in Tioga ? They eay that the heavy
Republican counties must save the State on
the 10th of October next, or it is lost. They
say that the county of -Tioga shall take the
praise or blame, as she may elqpt on that day.
They say that we mast repeat the majority of
*;/" 1 -rrp Arp D last fall if we would hold up to our proud tep
utation aa tKd “ Banner County.”
They speak (he truth ; we have the rotes to
cast. They must be cast’ We can give the
ticket 3000 majority. It muetbe done. - -
t The importance of the coming election is
second nniy to.-that of iaatfalL Remember —
we < hare to elect at Governor next year. To
make that easy, we most carry the State this
fall by a decisive majority..; We cun do it,-blit
not.without a full pull of the Republican vote,.
Roes any- one-suppose, that our opponents
will foil to vote early and often i W beo, tell
us, if you pletise/did they fail to come out to
an election.? They never fail. They are-too
persevering, too well trained, -too plucky r for
that. . .

FOR TREASURER,

TWENTY DAYS!
TH E TI O A fcOUK;’tV AGHATUK,
Let every Republican take the world upon
his shoulders. - ' Let every loyal min regard the
responsibility as being ail his'own. That is
the only way to win this battle.
But first see to it that every man is assessed
—every soldier and every civilian. Look to
thTs at once.'
Then make ample arrangements 'for getting
every Union mao to the polls; and'see to it
that every Union man is got.to die polls.
We are constrained to call our anti-war co
temporaries to order. They have, aided by
the light of ai-lantern, succeeded in finding a
military man to' lead their ticket in this State.
Having found him, they put him upon a plat
form which, charges him wifh being accessory
to nearly every crime in the calendar, and then
declare that bo is peculiarly fitted to head the
Peace party this fall. Dothey forget that Col.
Davis has actively made war upon the South ?
That while they were employed in the work of
discouraging enlistments, and undermining the
credit of the notion, he was waging war upon
their southern brethren ? We beg bis pardon;
justice requires the statement on bis behalf
.that while be was in the fieid, ostensibly to
put down rebellion, be was giving aid and
comfort to Jeff. Davis and his armies in bis
newspaper, the Doylestown Democrat. To put
this beyond controversy we publish extracts
from that vile sheet elsewhere.
We now oak the copperhead eulogists of this
peh-and-sword Colonel—this mao who more
than neutroliaedhis service in the field by the
poison which'dripped from his pen—we ask
his partisan' eulogists to' speak the truth for
once, and. say.if they do nut. count bis facile
habit, of double dealing as his peculiar qualifi
cation.for the position of leaderjif their party?
Itcannot be on account of bis participation in
“ a wicked, unconstitutional;' abolition war. 1”
Oh no Iby no means. Sat -we ’can see, and
the people of Pennsylvania will not fail to see,
that bis labors to destroy public credit through
his newspaper, entitle him tu some sort of a
reward and recognition at the bands of the
friends of J. Davis & Co.', in the North. - .
It is a significant fact, and confirmatory in
this view of tbs case, that we have yet to find
in any copperhead'paper a single allusion to
the services of Col. Davis in the war just end
ed,-r-notan allusion going beyond'mere men
tion. But, consistently enough, every paper
that flies his name, dwells at great-length up
tih'hie services in the war with Mexico —a war.
undertaken in the interests of Slavery--the fact
.now. being established by the avowals of the
slaveholders themselves. 1
If any be yet skeptical as to ike cat in that
meal-tub, they can nibble and try it.
One'bitter night in January (data, not ma
terial) two travelers sat" before a rousing fire in
the bar-room of a lonely country inn;' They
were-the only guests. The evenings were long
and that one promised;to prove dull, unless en
livened by more than toddy-drunk in silence.
So the travelers agroed to enter upon an am
. ioable contest of yarn-epinning. J
. The contest was waged about evenhanded for
two hours, when one took an extra born of
toddy, shook himself, and addressed himself to
the work of “ laying out" his antagonist, as
follows •. ;
“ Mebbe you've heard of Sam Jinks, %nd
mebbe not. Wa’al, Sam's got .the ongaindeet
farm in- ail creation. The line fences are as
crooked as chain lightning, and there aint lev
el land enough in the patch for a yearlin' pup
to lie down on. But the darndesfthihg of Ml
is the timber. There was one tree that beat
all contorted natnr' for crooked grain. Why,
sir, I was up there one day laat summer; and
the dog chased a red squirrel up that tree. A
thunder shower was cornin' right over, and the
lightning pitched right into the top of that
tree. The squirrel bolted strait for the ground
and the lightning followed the grain; and that
squirrel got down five minute* ahead 1"
The other traveler ventured to express a
doubt.
“ Solemn fact, air/’ said the narrator ; “ but
the richest part is to come. The lightnin’ split
the tree into rails, clean and slick, and Jinks
built’em into a fence'round his hog pastor’.
But them ’or rails was so thunderin' crooked
that though the hogs got ont forty times a day
they always found themselves in the same lot!”
- The nomination of participators in " an un
constitutional, abolition war,", by the Peace
‘ Democracy,’ in New York and Pennsylvania,
suggests the likelihood that the lines of that
party are constructed with Jinks’s rails ; and
moves us to soy in addition, that though they
may seem to have got out this fall, yon will be
sure to find them in the same lot.
MAINE, ever true to the Right, elects a Re
publican Governor and State officers entire,
and pretty nearly solid Republican Legislature
—and this by a majority of 20,0001—4000 in
crease over last year«l Do yon hoar that, Tio

Referring'ii) the efforts of the copperhead or-.
gans to destroy the military and manly charac
ter of the Union canidate for Surveyor General,
the Johnstown Tribune says the ledpard does
not change bis spots nor the Democratic party
its tactics. Down-right lying has always been
one of the main instrumentalities relied upon
by the leaders of that party to secure success,
and those leaders will nut now, in the day of
their extremity, forego their ancient preroga
tive. To magnify the merits of their own can
didate for Surveyor General, they have simul;
taneously and by evident preconcert commenced
to falsify the military record of that condidate's
superior officer, Col. Jacob M. Campbell, one
of the best officers that Pennsylvania gave to
Union, army for the suppression of a Democrat
ic rebellion. We will uot now reply to these
fellows, but that a tissue of vile falsehoods may
not go uncontradictcd, wc will state briefly the
following facts:
It is no! tecs, as alleged, that Col Camp
bell resigned his commission in the army.—
He was mustered out udder a general order
from the War Department, bis term of service
having expired, precisely as hundreds of other
good officers have been honorably discharged
from tbo service. He could not have longer
continued in the service as a Colonel had he so
elected, the regimental organization being bro
ken. -
It is mot true, as alleged, that. Lieutenant-
Colonel Linton led the I'ifty-fourth in the bat
tles of Newmarket and Piedmont. He was
not even in the battle of Piedmont, Col. Cette
aeli. himself gallantly and well led his otyn
regiment in bt>th the battles named, and in
every other engagement —with the single ex
ception of the affair at Snicker’s Gap—in which
that regiment participated, during the whole
period of his, three years’ service. After the
battle of Newmarket, Gen. Sioel personally
complimented Cul. Campbell, and in sight of
the whole regiment. ■
It is not true, as alleged, that Lieutenant
Colonel Linton was ever one day in command
of the Fifty-fourth before Petersburg, or any
where in that neighborhood. He was not in
oiie of the many btil iaot engagements whioh
followed the inauguration of Grant’s splendid
campaign against Richmond.
A wild man has been discovered in a forest
in Clearfield county. He was covered all over
with a copper-colored down, and when captured
firiifb-* So had
forgotten all the rest of the English language.
E*-,Governor Bigler kinbly took the wild man in
bands, and will prepare him to vote fur the
Democratic candidates in. October. This story
may be true, since large numbers of the resi
dents fled: to the woods.during the late draft.
Many are yet missing, so that more wild men
may yet be caught..
Mr. Gottsohalk, the distinguished pianist,
predicts that the. Mason A Hamlin Cabinet
Organs will become as fashionable as the piano
forte has been, and will indeed be “ sure to
find its way into every household nf taste and
refinement which can .possibly afford its mod
erate expense." Ho pronounces the Mason A
Hamlin instrumentsfar superior to all others
of their class.
The Copperhead leaders after opposing the
war, and withholding the right of suffrage from
the soldiers, now. talk of forming. a soldiers'
party. If ever the right of suffrage 'shall be
extended to the. negroes, the same class of man
will beoome noisy, champions of black men's
rights; and it has been well said that they
will claim to have negro blood in their veins.
Demagogues are ever strong on the strong side,
if they-know which it is. But there is the
trouble. They are often mistaken.

lon complain of your stomach, unfortunate dys
peptic; bat'ought not your stomach to complain of
you ? Possibly the pangs you endure are simply the
stomach’s method of taking revenge npon you for
neglecting and abasing it. Perhaps you have never

other band are continually cramming it with an
wholesome and incongruous food. Have you ever
tried UOSTETTER’B STOMACH BITTERS, a prop,

would pot your digestive apparatus in perfect order,
regulate the tow of bile in accordance with tho laws
of health, and produce just so much aperient i action
as would be necessary for your good; and when you
were onoo all right, judicious and regular dieting,
with a little of the Tonic now and then, would keep
you so. If you have neglected these means of cure,
don’t blame your stomach for its rebellion. It is
merely nature’s bint that she wants help. If yon
neglect it, the next thing may bo Inffammation, or
