Canada is the point of attack. Twins resembling in some respects the Siamese twins, were recently born in Lancas ter Co., Pa. They were joined by the abdo men. The Erie Observer says the Grant ratifica tion meeting meeting in that city was an ut ter failure, the Court House not being half full. In every other place in the State where such meetings were held, tbe same spirit showed itself. Everywhere the masses show how tired they are of Radical misrule. A carnage with India rubber wheels, for the use of iuvalids.has been produced iu Lon don. A young woman in Richmond, Ya.,who re jected a lover three or four years ago, has just received notice from the young man's ad ministrator that all his property, amounting in value to about §20,000, was bequeathed to her. A tract of land containing 330 acres, with a mill on it, was sold recently in Rocking ham county, N. C., under execution,for §330. Another one one on the Piedmont Railroad sold for §1 per acre, and a tract which bro't §I3OO since the war, was sold at §250. The Washington papers record a speech made at the recent Sunday School celebra tion by GeD. Grant. The following is a ver batim report: "The boys and girls look well to day. That's a pretty banner." A Democratic exchange says : "Grant knows nothing of that ardeDt spirit which in spires enthusiasm in oihers." Well, if Grant docs not know all about ardent spirits, who in thunder does ? A lady sixty years old started from the East to visit a sick daughter in Minnesota,re cently, and having never rode OD the cars be fore, was crazed by the excitement and ar rived at LaCrosse a raving maniac. Gen. Schofield entered upon his duties as Secretary of War, on Monday, June Ist. A religious political newspaper is about to be started"at Pottstown. Of coarse it will advocate Thad Stevens' doctrine, that "per jury will not do a man any harm." Mr. Stanberry's nomination as Attorney General, has been rejected by the Senate.— He defended President Johnson in the im peachment trial. On Wednesday, the House refused to sus tain resolutions of respect to the memory of Ex President Buchanan, offered by Judge Woodward. The Nashville Banner says : During the war, Charles DavidsoD, a negro, committed* rape on a respectable young lady of Maury county, and was sent to tbe penitentiary for tweuty-one years.

The bal lot for the nigger and gold for the bond holder. narrisbnrg has been chosen for holding the State Fair, which comes off this year lrom September 29th to October 2nd- The Radical papers say the Ku Klux Klan attempted to murder John A Logan, while on his way to Chicago, by throwing a brick at at him when the train was in motion. To prove it, John took the brick to Chicago with him—in his hat. Whenever Northern mongrels or Southern bastards find a negro in the Southern States whom they cannot control, or who wants a share of tbe stealings and Offices, they mur der him out-right, and then to cover their tracks they howl Ku Klux. "POETRY." —If we had more farmers and few er fops, we'd have more good men and better crops. Tho expense of President Johnson's de fence cotne out of private pockets, bat the ' Rump bill is saddled upon the Government. I One of the Arkansas "Senators," according to a letter written by him some years ago, is a drunkard, a gambler and a defaulter. So much the better, then, for his Radicalism. Tho term of twenty-ene United States Sen ators will expire on the 4th of March, 1870, of whom 14 are Hepublicans and 7 Democrats. The Democrats have so far gained one in Ohio, one in California and another in Ore gon. Land is now selling in the South at from one to ten dollars per acre—fine, cleared farming land. Why is it so cheap ? Because niggers won't work. Because they are sup ported by the Freedmen's Bureau, and be cause white men won't enrgrate to a land where they are denied both law and justice, ind where the nigger is either their equal or their superior. Not a single distinguished soldier took part in the nomination of Grant, and not one of ihat class will support him. Chosen by sutlers, carpet-baggers, negroes, and secoud rale politicians, he will be supported by tbe classes they represent and none other. A riot occurred in Washington,on Tues day mght of last week,between the niggers ' and white men—result,two white men killed, drug stores gutted, windows smashed in and ; printing offices threatened. The Radicals call it serenading Grant. The Pacific States reject Radicalism. Ore gon no joins hrnds with California and re pudiates the Jacobin party. The East also repudiate it, while Chase and seven of the Republican Senator* representing the brains of that body In the Senate, desert tbe rotten cause. (Hie Democrat. HARVEY SICKLER, Editor.

We wotice a movement among the Dem ocratic masses of this state, favoring the nomination of the IION. ASA PACKER, FOR PRESIDENT, at the Democratic National Convention to be held at New York, on | the 4th proximo. Judge Packer is a man not without fame neither abroad nor in his own country. One so intimately con | nected with the working, industrial mass es—with whom he has always been a friend and co-worker—one who has spent the best years of his life in improving and de veloping the resources of state — and withal, one who, while yet in the vigor : and prime of life and in all probability has many years in which to nsc and enjoy his hard earned fortune —deals it out with such a wiliiog heart and open hand—must needs I have a strong hold on the confidence and affections of the people. Judge Packer as the candidate of the democracy would car- I ry Pennsylvania by an overwhelming ma ! jority ; and by bis great talents and nnas -1 suming manners v.ould honor and dignify | any position in the gift #f the people. We most cheerfully second his nomina tion to the Presidential chair. Judging the capacities of Grant, by the history of his early exploits and pred ilections as recorded, by bis doating dad,he would make a first rate hostler for a third rate hotel, if his habits acquired since be has grown up, would not make it neces sary for him to occupy too many of the stalls, himself. The country requires a man with more brains and less boss; more statesmanship and less whisky drinking, for its chief magistrate, (as to the whisky drinking propensities of the great smokist, sec numerous radical papers of last win ter). £3T The nigger equality ticket is made up on the Kangaroo principle. It is very decidedly the biggest behind, Colfax, at the tail, though lacking in statesmanship, has bad some experience in the political affairs of the country. Grant, at tbe head, is as innocent of ideas in governmental af -1 fairs as a real animal of the class represent ed by him and his tail-piece. It cannot be doubted, that the Kangaroos down [ South and elsewhere will stand by tbe ticket. MRS. LINCOLN'S IDEA OF GRANT. —In the book recently issued under he sanc tion of Mrs. Lincoln, purporting to be i written by a colored seamstress long in her employ, the following estimate of Gen. Grant appears in a domestic colloquy be tween Mrs. Lineoln and her husband : " He is a butcher, and is not fit to be at the head of the army." And when the President said, byway, of defending tho General, " But he has been very success ful, " she replied; •' Yes, be generally man ages to claim a victory ! He loses two men to the enemies one. If the war should last longer, he be in power, he would depopulate the North. According to bistactics, there is nothing under the heavens to do but to march a new lot of men up in front of the rebel breastworks, j to be shot down as fast as they lake their position. Graut I repeat, is an obstinate fool and a butcher." Impeachment and conviction of the President were to bring success to the Chicago ticket. Said old Thad. Stevens ; "If the President is not convicted, the Rad ical candidate will carry but two Northern States—Masaacbusetti and Vermont." The Interest of the White Toilers of the North in the Presidential Election. To tbe unemployed poor of New York a Presidential election, with all that it im plies, is a matter of life and death. To the wealthy it may be an exciting stimu lus ; the well-to-do, a holiday, pastime ; but to the unemployed poor it is virtually and actually a matter of life and death.— It is a battle which is to decide the fate of millions, but it is well to rerrember that it is a battle in which the rich have no ad vantages over the poor in point of weap ons. The ballot is as effective in the hands of a mechanists in those of a mil lionaire. The one thing necessary is to use it- Another point well worth remem bering is, that in elections numbers is the only thing that tells, and the advantage of numbers is ever on the side of the Democ racy, for the toiling millions always out number the men of leisure, and the De mocracy can truly say, "the poor are al ways with us." A Democratic victory is, therefore, emphatically the triumph of La bor, and is a matter of as vital interest to tbe poor woman who sews and stitches fourteen hours out of the twenty-four, as to any Presidential candidate. There is ; not a dweller in a miserable attic in New Yoik whose hard lot would not be render ed more endnrably by the overthrow of the accursed party that" for eight long years have been practicing on tbe life of the Republic, that reaped a profit from every blow the artisan struck, and every stitch the needlewoman sewed ; that drove the poor into miserable tenements, in or der <liat room might be made for their pal atial mansions, and force them to pay tax es, not on their incomes—that would be a slight matter—but on every morsel thy ate and every rag they wore, that the bonds of the rich may go untaxed and their interest be paid in gold. We hear enough of equality now-a-days to sicken ar.y one of the word. Of course social equality between man and man no one is mad enough to propose ; but social equality with the Man and Brother is quite a different thing. Now, there is one species of equality that a Democratic vic tory would be likely to secure—an equali ty that every fair minded man would like to see, but which these equality praters never think of, ar.d that is equality of taxa tion. We arc for equality of taxation; let the burden be distributed evenly all over, and let the rich man hear his own I load. We had enough of the substitute business during the war—more than i enough, heaven knows ; but let it end ! with the war. The poor shouldered raui j kets for the rich then ; must they should ! er the responsibilities now ? This is the question the next Presiden tial election is to decide. Before it every other pales. In comparison with it every question is of minor importance. A few ; months from now and we shall know whether a privileged class is to be saddled j on the country ; whether caste, under the most insidious form, is to prevail, with the taxpayer as pariah.— Metropolitan Record. Something Wrong. The individual who denies the right of ' voting to the negro in Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Kansas, or any other State where the negro was born a freeman, and by long association with his particular friends, who are always controlled by i "grand moral ideas," and from other stir rounding circumstances, might possess | some knowledge of q§r system of govern ment, and then claims the franchise for him in Virginia, Georgia, Louisiana, and | other States, where he was born a slave, i and of necessity ignorant of the rights and duties of a freeman, must be a fool, or ho supposes his neighbors to be such, If but half is true, with reference to the ignorance and debauchery of the late slaves, that their particular friends have for a quarter of a century said about them, tbev are wholly unfit to exercise the right of sufl rage. Yet we see and hear those who I claim to be honest, upright God-fearing men, vehement and loud in their demands to give the ignorant Southern negro the ballot, while they deny it to their free "brother" in the North. Can a man be considered honest who reverses himself so completely ? In our view he must be as ignorant as he would have us believe the late slaves to have been, or he is a rascal of 4he first water. The man who thus deals with his neighbors' liberties lias but few scruples to overcome until be is ready to rob him of his property, and will, if the opportunity offers, exchange his patriotism for "green backs," — at forty per cent, discount at that. Clearfield Republican, A SENSATION—AN ELOPEMENT.— One ! Sterling, a white Yankee schoolmaster, who has spent a year among the niggers j of this town, with the pretence of teaching , the young colored idea how to shoot, and the old colored idea how to vote, has sud denly committed a deed which creates general remark among the citizens, and removes him, temporarily, at least from his sphere of his usefulness. He, of course preferred the aristocratic society of the darkies, and took up his bed and board ing among them, ignoring the existence of the white trash altogether. Not unnatu rally. he foimed an attachment for one of our buxom maidens of the copper colored persuasion, named Alice, a very excellent and useful aid to a most trusty washer woman of this city. Miss Alice, it seems reciprocated the passion, and on Monday night the happy pair took their departuie for parts unknown. The general feeling among all classes of our people is, that Miss Alice has made a bad bargain, and married far beneath her station, as she was a lady of fine appearance, with most invi ting physical conformation. We are sor ry for Alice.— Summit ( Mist.) Times. Qrant and Impeachment Repudiated in Oregon. The election for Congressman and mem bers of the Legislature took place in Ore gon, on Monday last, and resulted in almost a clt an sw( ep. Oregon has here- j tofore been Radical ; it is now democratic ' by 1500 majority. This is the first State electioft since the nomination of Grant, It is the first State election since the Im 1 peachment vote. The people there have spoken, and Sen ator Williams' vote for conviction is re- ! pud ia ted. Grant's Acceptance—Oral and Written. On Friday evening, of last week, the committee appointed by the Chicago Con vention to inform General Grant of his nomination, waited on him at his residence in Washington. The committee wa9 head ed by General Ilawley of Connecticut, and among other notabilities who made up the body, was one of the negro delegates to the Convention, a full-blooded African from North Carolina. Colfax was present, and about two hundred persons witnessed the ceremony. General Hawley made a rad ical speech to Grant, assuring him that the Republican party were fully resolved to carry out the doctrines of negro suffrage and negro equality. To this, Gen. Grant replied as follows : Mr. President, and Gentlemen of the National Union Convention: I will en deavor in a very short time, to write you a letter accepting the trust you have impos ed upon me. [Applause.] Expressing my gratitude for the confidence you hare placed in me, I will now say but little oral ly, and that is to thank you for the unani mity with which you have selected me as a candidate for the Presidential office. 1 can say, in addition, I looked on during the progress of the proceedings at Chica go with a great deal of interest, and am gratified with the harmony and unanimity which seem to have governed the deiibera tions of the Convention. If chosen to fili the high office for which you have selected me. I w ill give to its duties the same en ergy, the same spirit, and the same will, that I have given to the performance of all duties which have devolved upon me hith ertoforc. Whether I shall be able to per form these duties to your entire satisfac tion, time will determine. You have tru ly said, in the course of your address, that that I shall have no policy of my own to interfere against the will of the people. The candidate for Vice President, Col fax, having more brains, made a more ex tended speech. The letter of acceptance was immedi ately forthcoming, and for its verbosity is about equal to the speech. Here it is. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 29, 18113. To General Joseph R. Hnwlcy, President of the National Union Republican Con vention. In formally accepting the nomination of the National Union Republican Conven tion oftlie 21st of May, inst., it seems proper that some statement of views he voml the mere acceptance of the nomina should be expressed, The proceedings of the Convention were marked with wisdom, moderation and patiiotism, and 1 believe express the feelings of the great mass of those who sustained tlie country througfl its recent trials. I endorse their resolu tions, and if elected to the office of I*r *si— dent of the United States, it w ill be my en deavor to administer all the law s in good faith, with economy, and with the view of giving peace, quiet and protection every where. In times like the present it is im possible, or at least eminently improper, to lav down a policy to be adhered to, right or wrong. Through an administration of four years new political issues not foreseen are constantly arising. The views of the public on old ones are constantly changing, and a purely administrative officer should always be left free to execute the will of the people. I always hare respected that will and alwais shall. Peace and universal prosperity, its consequence, with economy of administration, will lighten the burden of taxation, while it constantly re duces the national d-.bt. Let us have peace. With great respect, you obedient ser vant, U. S. GRANT. Beyond Grant's endorsement of the Radical platform, the letter is meaningless, and shows that he undoubtedly intends to play a dummy game through the campaign. Colfax's letter is lengthy and enunciates the most radical views, which he promises to adhere to. — Ex, ANOTHER OUTRAGE —On Tuesday, of last week, the House Radicals expelled General Morgan (Democrat), of Ohio,front his seat, and gave it to the contestant, De lano, a Radical. This is another of those outrages on the right of the people to be represented bv representatives of their own choice, which has made this Congress and the last so infamous. General Morgan was fairly elected to the seat he held, and the Radicals on the Election Committee who signed the majority report against him knew it. lie comes from a district (the Thirteenth) which has uniformly gone Democratic, and will no doubt return him next fell, by two or tbrcc thousand major ity. STANTON.—There is great rejoicing all over the country at the final closing of the Court of Impeachment, the acquittal of the President and the failure of Stanton to re tain possession of the War Office. The hero of the Andersonville murders will now retire to private life, and may, possible,fall a victim to remorse, as did Preston King, and Jim Lane. A Russian tutor recently killed the whole family where he was engaged. He beat out his pupils' brains, shot the father and mother, and finished by killing the cook, the footman and the housekeeper. A NEW LIFE OF GNANT--Wasbburne has given one Denning permis-ion to write a lile of Grant. We hope it will prove more satisfactory to his- political keepers than that written by his father. Old Jesse knew too much about Ulysses to be al lowed to proceed with his biography and so he had to be rudely cut short in his literary labors. General Grant dare not deny that lie stated in Washington, during the early days of impeachment, that unless Presi dent Johnson was impeached, or words to that effect, he would not and could not rema" in Washington. Query ; When will Grant begin to keep his word. RESULT OF THE WASHINGTON MU NICIPAL ELECTION. Niggers Take Possession of the Polls and Drive Away the Whites. EVIDENCES OF A DASTARDLY SWINDLE! BALLOT-BOXES LEFT UNSEALED IN THE HANDS OF THE RADICALS. On Tuesday June 2nl, the following dispatch appeared in all the daily news papers : Wasliingtan, D. C., June Ist, 18G8,— At the rrninieipal election to-dav, Given, Democrat , was elected over Bowen, Radical, by about 500 majority —a gain of 3,900 over last year, when the Radicals and niggers carried the election. But on Wednesday a contradictory dis patch appeared—the Radicals having, " between two days, " changed the result. The special correspondent of the Age at the niggerized Capitol makes the follow ing expose of the way it was done : The municipal election which was held in this city yesterday, was one of the most exciting contests ever witnessed in the Federal metropolis, and when the re turns from every precinct in each of the seven wards reached the police headquar ters last night it was officially announced that Mr. Given, the Democratic candidate for Mayor, was elected by one hundred and thirty eight majority —the Democrats carrying four out of seven wards, and se curing a majority of the city Conncils on joint ballot. This, result was telegraphed all over the country last night hnd was considered as well settled as anything can be. It turns out to-Uay, however, that the ballot-boxes, after ibe counting of the votes, were left unsealed, and this morn ing the Judges of the Election met at the City Hall, where a recount of the votes was made. The result of this recount of ballots in unsealed ballot-boxes and in the hands of Radical politicians, is that Mr. Given is cheated out of bis election, and a majority of seventy-four declared in favor of the Radical competitor, Sayles J. Bow en. This is considered one of the most dastardly election swindles ever perpetra ted in tiiis part.of the country, and has given ri-e to the greatest indignation on tii# part of tiie respectable citizens of Washington. In addition to this a large number of white voters were prevented from depositing their ballois yesterday by the niggers, who took possession of the polls in some of the precincts and by the connivance of a Radical police, held tin in, throughout the day. lu spile of all tois, however, the Democrats have secured the City atindtilaud a Radical majority of two thous.iud live huudied last year. MK COLFAX'S "CHARITABLE" LEC TURES. — acbuyler Coltax s gets SIO,UOO a year as tLu Cqnaker ot the House ot iiepteseniu.ilves, and we should think he might ;dioid to lecture for charitable put puses at less than a simple lecture toe price he charged in 'i Teuton. VVe learn tuat after paying Mr. Coltax S2OO, and other expenses, the gentlemen inter ested in the Widows' and Single Women's Home had to make up the sum of $5 each ; and had they not done so, these old ladies, for whose benetit the whole thing was ar ratigi d, would not have received a cent. Hut Mr. Colfax is only a specimen brick ot the avaricious, grasping at.-pusi lioti ol iLts paily of" great moral toeas." All their speakers who came to speak for their " Heeding ' country, ot for cnauiy, charged good round sums, Han Sickles eh a i god the committee ot Trenton lor his speech at Taylor llall, some say, s>2tl0 — Some of the Massachusetts speakers acta ally sued the committee ot towns in New Jersey lor their services ! This is a pretty paily to be sure. Tiiey have so arranged matters as to compel tne people to pay enormous taxes to uiaiutuiu military governors and thousands ot subordinates; lo make distinction be tween the bond holder and the man who loans ins money to start machinery or build up cities, by giving the termer about 10 pet cent, and tne latter only 7 per cent. — 2'ientun True American teT " Let us liave peace, " say Grant's %gh men, aping their leader. Who hinders ycu ? You have Con gress by more than two thirds in either branch. The President is not in your way, for you can and do override all his vetoes. The Supreme Court is not in your way, for you car. and do abridge its jurisdiction. The army is not in your way, for you have created Grant military dictator in the Southern desert which yon have made in ten States and call peace. — These powers you have and have had for three years, thus utterly unimpeded have you been on every hand, It* you want peace why didn't you give us peace ? An Expensive Law. If the Radicals are not soon put out of power, there will not he money enough in the country to pay the expenses of our State and National Governments. They are constantly inventing new ways to spend the people's money. The Registry Law passed at the last session of our Legislature turns out to be an expensive thing, 'iho City Commissioners of Phil adelphia have made application to the Councils for an extra appropiation of eighty-one thousand dollars to carry out the law in that citv. *At this rate it will take half a million dollars to execute it throughout the State ! Thus while trade in all its branches is languishing and business men have hard work to keep their heads above water, our Radical Congress spends millions on the Freed men's Bureau and our Radical State Leg islature spends half a million to put in execution an unnecessary and vexatious Registry Law. Is it not time to have a change ?— Exchange, A scandalous copperhead story represents Grant as locked in bis room several hours each day preparing his letter of acceptance, with a copy of Webster's Unabrigcd Dictionary, "'Frost's Original Letter Writer," and Barney's "New Method, " and asking Washburne through the keyhole whether Chicago was Cht cawgo or Chikoughgo, as Webster bad not put that word in bis dictionary. • .Greenbacks For Bonds. Tbe resolution offered by Gen. Carey of Ohio, in the House of Representatives at Washington, on Monday, was rather startling to tbe privileged classes who imagine that tbe peeple are willing to pay them in gold what they purchased for greenbacks, and that at a time when gold was at a far higher premium than it is at present. Cun. Carey was elected by the workingmen of Ohio, and in offering this resolution he has no doubt been influenced by the wishes of his constituents. Tbe heavy vote in favor of referring the matter to the Committee ol Ways and Means—74 to 27—was also startling to the Radical aristocrats, and they will not leave any means untried to have the bill strangled in Committee. We are much mistaken in our estimate of Gen. Carey f however, if he permits th.s to be done lie has worded his preamble precisely the same as one of the resolutions adopted by the Radical Convention at Chicago, and we Lope he will persevere until he forces the Radicals to define their true position on the financial question. The preamble and resolution are as follows : W heheas, The national honor reqirres the payment of the public ind< btness to creditors at borne and abroad, not only according to the letter, but tbe spirit of the law under which it was contracted, therefore Resolved , That ni itLer the letter nor the spirit of tbe law under which tl.^s were issued, requires payment of the prin cipal in coin, and it will be in the uuno-t good faith it bidders thereof be paid in tbe same money which has been paid to the soldiers who fought the battl sot the w-.i, and with which the government settles the claims ol the widows and orphans of our fallen heroes—the same that laborers are required to receive as wages, and that which is a legal tender lor nil public and private debts, except custom duties and in terest on pudlic debt." If the National II inking and Boudhold ing monopolies imagine that the people will submit to be ground into the dust for their benefit, they are greatly mistaken.— The national debt lias already been psid twice over again. If the national drones are aot willing to eat the same honey as the national workers, they may perhaps be stung out of the national hive. If the people, in their poverty and dispair, repu diate the national debt entirely, tiieir ra ii. cal rulers, who fotced them to pay gold for greenbacks, will be to blame for the result, as they are to blame for the pres .nt sad condition of our once prosperous and happy country I —Reading E<yle. Jt'ST LIKE THEM.—The General Con ference of the nigger branch of toe Me thodist Church Noith, which has been in session at Washington for some time past took a hand at impeachment on Friday last. The day previous the Conference passed a resolution to the iffect that the members should assemble at 10 o'clock on Friday, and offVr up an united prayer for the conviction i.n 1 impeachment of the President. Friday carne. and the black prayers were bellowed heavenward with Am. n ! succeeding Atnen ! but from the results of Saturday we are led to be lieve that neither t.ie Almighty nor the Rump Senate, gave those prayers the. slightest attention. The White Branch in session at the same time at Chicago, play ed the clown in a similar way on Saturday, and with like results. Their prayers, like tbe great conspiracy, proved a failure. What We May Expect. — The Iler uld is showing what the country has to expect in the event of the election of Grant and Colfax: '• Military despotism, supported by an immense taxation and ruling at the will of an oligarchy of arrogant politicians in Congress, is what the Republicans have labored tor ir. the past. Within this sim ple and comprehensive programme !>e all their principles, all their political ideas ; and for this programme they will labor more energetically aed with more resolute persistency in the future. They will ex tend the sphere of its operation also.— Grant acc. pts their programme fully, un reservedly, slavishly, and deliberately promises beforehand that lie will oppose no obstruction to it, that no " policy " of his stands in the way of the pnarranged policy of the men who pull the w ires of his political existence. If such a party succeeds in electing sucli a President, the country can judge what must he the re sult. What is the conduct of the impeach ment Managers in their' present investi gation hut a foretaste of what would fol low with such men in power ? Here we have all the personal rights of the citizen invaded at once. Without any process of law whatever, a man is deprived of his liberty and thrust into a cell at the mere bidding of a political bully. The secrecy of the telegraph anil post office is violated as no man would dare to violate it in des potic France. Men who do such a thing merely because thev have the power, will know no limit but that of their power in enforcing their will." UNITED STATES Internal Revenue!
