We earnestly invite you to organize for victory. Attention to details, petserving energy organization and discipline will bring tri umph to your principles. Zeal and perseverance in every Demo crat, and thorough organization in every locality, are the true roads to success. Supeificial effort, noise and parade ate , valueless. The stake is a mighty one, and must be won by systematic woik and business-like energy. Pennsylvania is the battle ground. At the October election the enemy will make their most determined contest. You occupy the post of honor—the van guard of the Democratic party. You have j proven vour ability to carry the State; and individual efiort, faith in your princi ples and courage in their maintenance now , will enable you to count your majori ty by ten of thousands. The drift of the tide is towards you; changes are abundant; and it is apparent that the political revulsion now in progress will end in the utter overthrow of Radical ism. Let us labor to deserve so propitious a result. We invoke you, then, to energetic action, to close attention to the details of your or ganization, to the formation of clubs, to the conversion of voters, to the enthusiastic support of your candidates—SEVUOl R, the statesman, and BLAIR, the gallant soldier. Let us recognize in their names the sym bols of change, the representatives of ha tred to Radicalism, and extending the hand of fellowship to all who will aid us in sav ing the Republic, Conservatives and Dem ocrats will move forward under their ban ner, as a mighty phalanx, united, deter mined irresistible. Let your warfare be aggressive. De feud nothing. The Radicals in power are , responsible for the unhappy condition of I our country. Charge upon thein their extravagances and their crimes. Demand of them an account for j our treasure wasted your race degraded, your business destroyed and your Government prostituted. Let your rallying cries be, A GOVERN MENT OF WHITE MEN-; EQUAL TAXATION; ONE CCRRENCT FOR ALL. Organize ! Organize ! Organize 1 To woik ! To work ! To work ! By order of the Democratic State Com mittee. WILLIAM A. WALLACE, Chairman. - (aJ" The N. V. Herald says : " the rev enue is declining in every direction, and nowhere coming up to the estimates. — The expenditures havs been increasing, and in the War Department enormously ; the treasury is being depleted, and there is evety prospeet that within a short time the income of the government will not meet the demands, " Ac. And so it will been seen that with all our taxes and immense debt, the load is constantly growing heavier, and the peo ple's representatives are doing nothing to secure relief. Millions upon millions of useless appropriations are made to carry OH Freedmen's Bureaus and maintain military despotisms over one third of tfce people of the country. Is it not time the I taxpayers and the working-men demand I a change I r . Where does the Money go P--Taxpayers look. Over FIFTEEN* HUNDRED MIL LIONS OF DOLLARS havebe c n collect ed by the UNITED STATES Govern ment, in the shape of TAXES, siuee the close of the war. Just think of it. One half of the National debt. WHERE IIASTHE MONEY GONE? Is the debt any less ? No! IT IS MORE than it was three years a<jo. While Congress has been making the negro the white man's equal, and "rceon s rueting," arid impeaching, FIFTEEN HUNDRED MILLIONS HAVE BEEN I TAKEN FROM THE DOCKETS OF I THE FARMERS, THE MECHANICS AND LABORERS OF THE NORTH. | The pejple were told by the Radical patriots and thieves and bummers, that the close of the war would see a restored Un ion, with peace and prosperity and happi ness. Well, the war ended three years ago, the South laid down its arms and sur rendered, but Radicals hostilities have not ceased. The fight still goes on against eight millions of white men, women and children, and it costs the country just Five Hundred Millions a year —that's the price. WHAT HAS BECOME OF THESE FIFTEEN HUNDRED MILLIONS ? Where have they gone to ? HAVE THEY GONE TO FAY THE PUBLIC ! DEBT? NO ! Not a bit of it. i How is that in spite of all this taxation —notwithstanding one half of the whole National debt has been raised from the sweat and toil of the people, the harden is as heavy, as oppressive, as crushing now as i ever ? | Fellow citizens, these are questions for i you to answer. Don't let dust be thrown in your eyes by the conspirators who are stealing your rights and your money at the same time" V\ hen yon are asked next November for your vote in favor of Grant, who is the tool of a crazy Congress, demand to know J WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE FIFTEEN HON— ! DRED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS taken OUt of ! your pockets during the past three vears. Ask them the reason why the South, ! now that thu negroes are free, produces on ly one-half what it formerly raided ? Ask them if the Fifteen Hundred Mil- I lions have not gone to— i SUPPORT A GREAT NEGRO ! BOARDING HOUSE in the South? And | to — SUPPORT A STANDING ARMY j OVER THE SOUTH, iD order that we ! may have : I NEGRO JUDGES, j NEGRO GOVERNORS. NEGRO LEGISLATURES. NEGRO GOVERNMENTS. Instead of appropriating these fifteen | hundred millions of dollars to the payment : of the public debt, they have been i xpend-1 ed for the maintenance of a grand system ! of pauperism, BLAUTv pauperism, and Congress has just voted to continue the SITI'EXIX >US IK)BBERY another year. \V hat is the remedy ? You have it in '■ Oir hand, Yote for men for every office, from President down, who are OPPOSED to these outrageous swindles. Vote for a President and Congress who will agree to— ABOLISH TIIE NEGRO BUREAU, and let the negroes shift for themselves. ABOLISH THE EXPENSIVE STAND ING ARMY in the Sou h. But Grant won't do this. lie says he has no opinions of his own, and will do just as Congress directs. Arming of Southern Negroes. One day last week, Mr. Paine, of Wis consin, introduced in House of Represent atives at Washington, a bill "to authorize the Seeratary of War to deliver certain or dinance to the States of Arkansas, Louisi ana, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Florida, for the use of militia on the discontinuance of the mil itary government therein." This is intend - ed for the purpose of arming the blacks in the South, in order to keep intelligent white people under the heel of Radical op pression. The secret leagues have already formed the negroes into military compa nies, and arc officered and drill with a view to receive and use this ordinance. Was there ever invented a more diabolical en gine for the subversion of civilized govern merit than this ? Will the people of the North submit to so high handed an outrage ? Will the white people of any section of the country, suffer this transfer of the govern ment ordinance to the possesion of the ig norat, degraded and riotous black of the reconstructed States. Mr. HENDRICKS (Pent., In L ) in ropty to the re marks which have heen mat", sail he consMerered this a in >st dangerous hill because it proposed *o arm one political party against the other. It placed tte ; control of aims to be distributed with the Governors of the States designated, and Ibis, too, immediately before the I'residentat election. In regard to the ra tio of distribution ho asked what Maine wanted with seven thousand muskets, Massachusetts with twelve thousand, ant Indiana with thirteen thousand ? ami, in order to illustrate his argument he referred to the fact that the Governor of Indiana, being a candidate for re-election, these arms placed at his disposal could he used according to his designs and pleasure, .And so with the other States. He oinmencod upon j the action of the Senate last night in rejecting Mr -1 Vicker's amendment, providing that the distribution i of arms, etc. shall not take place prior to the first of January, unless the President shall deem it neces sary for the prevention of disturbance iu the Soutb \ era States. This fact, he remarked, was significant jof tho design of the bill. Arms were to be disttibu , ted to all the Sutea, with the exception of Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas, and these States were omit ied because there was to be no election there. Tlierc | fore, he areued that the only purpose of this di'tri -1 button of arms before the election was to make a military force out oj one party to orerawe the other, and thus control the election All he asked was a fair election and the people may rote without- hin dran-e, governed.by their own judgment. General Grant has said in the last scutenee of hi? letter ad ! cepting the nomination for Presidency, "We want peaco. Let us have peace." All parties sbeul.l de j sire this, and quiet in the oounlry. After this ex i prcssion of the desire for peace on the part of the candidate of the Republican party, tre find here a jire-brand~a measure calculated to excite passion . and produce strife and perhaps bloodshed. With a ! measure so threatening an t dingcrous in its eharac ler, the people would be sloir to beliere that the party j desired peace He hoped the President would excr j cise the power he possessed to prevent this bill from hemming a law. The President owed this not only to his constitutional duty, but to the peace and quiet of the country. lie should defeat a measure so full of peril to the country, and which incited a conflict between the whiles and blacks. DON'T DIVIDE TIIE HONOR.—It was Gen. Hartranft, of this State, the candi date of the Mongrels for Auditor General, and not the gallant Hancock, who hung Mrs Snrratt. The Radicals considered it j a great exploit at the time, but now they i would like to divide the honor. Let all j the odium of the affair rest where it be i longs. For Weak Stomachs. There are some people, and especially " Republicans" who are disgusted with Grant and their own party, who earnestly desired the nomination of Judge Chase, as they say, they could have voted for him consistently, on account ot his rec ord in favor of the war." These gentle men, not having as yet tasted the strong food of Democracy, do not know its gen erous and wholesome qualities, and their weak stomachs require a mild dii t, lest nausea should supervene. Now the Rad ical demagogues are striving hard to make these.squeamish folks believe that if they swallow Horatio Seymour they will get more copper than they can possibly di gest. For the benefit of these people, and as a complete reputation of the Radical caluminics against Governor Seymour, we propose jo print a leaf or two from the history of the war • WASHINGTON, June 15, 1863. To his Excellency, Gov. Seymour : The, movements of the rebel forces in Virginia are now sufficiently developed to | show that Gen. Lee, with his whole army j is moving forward to invade the States of I Maryland aud Pennsylvania, and other i States. " The President, to repel the invasion ! promptly, has called upon Ohio, Pennsyl ! vania, Maryland and Western Pennsyl vania, for one hundred thousand mditia, for six months, unless sooner discharged. It is important to have the largest possi ble force in the least possible time, and if | other States would furnish militia for a short time to be credited in the draft, it would greatly advance the object. Will ! you please to inform me immediately if, in answer to a special call of the President, | you can raise and forward twenty thous and militia volunteers, without bounty, to Ibe credited in the draft of your State, or what number you can possibly raise ? E. M. STANTON, Scc'y., War. Governor Seymonr immediately answer 'cd that he would send 20,000 men to Pennsylvania, and in a few hours after | the receipt of the dispatch, several regi -1 ments were on the inarch and the rest I followed soon tliereafter- WASIIINGTON, June 15, 1863. I GOVERNOR SEYMOUR: The President desires me to return his thanks, with those of this Department, for j your prompt response. A strong inove | tnent of your city regiments to Philadel- J pl.ia would he a very encouraging move ' merit, and do great g<>od in giving strength in that State. E. M. STANTON, Sec'y of War. Four days afterwards, Secretary Stanton by direction of President Lincoln, tele -1 graphed to Governor Seymour's Adjutant ! General as follows : WASHINGTON, June It), 1863. To Adjutant General Sprague : The President directs me to return his thanks to his Excellency Governor Sey mour, and his staff tor their energetic and prompt action. Whether any further force is likely to be required will he com municated to you to-morrow, by which time it is expected the movements of the ! enemy will be more fully developed. E, M. STANTON, Sec t y, War But Secretary Stanton, filled with an ! overflowing gratitude to Governor Sey i mour for his prompt and candid support | of the Government, again telegraphed his acknowledgments of the Governor's ser vices, in the following emphatic and en | thusiastic terms: WAR DEPARTMENT, ") WA smsr.ToN, June 27, 18G3. ) DEAR SIR —1 cannot forbear expressing to you the deep obligation I feel for the prompt support you have given to the Government in the present emergency.— i The energy, activity and patriotism you have exhibited I may be permitted per j sonally and officially to acknowledge, with j out arrogating any personal claims on my ! part to such service, or to any service whatever. I shall be happy always to be esteemed .your friend. E. M.STANTON. Sec'y War, His Excellency Horatio Seymour: Let the " trooly loil " put that in their pipes and smoke it. If the endorsement of Seymour's patriotism by A. Lincoln and E. M. Stanton has no weigh' with " Re publicans," then they would not believe ; though one rose from the dead to testify in that behalf. But let Gov. Seymour's record speak for itself. In his message to the New York Legislature in January, 1803, occurs this passage : " We must accept the condition of af fairs as they stand. At this moment the fortunes of our country are influenced by the results of battles. OUR ARMIES IN | THE HELD MUST CE SUPPORTED. All COII - stitutiona! demands of our General Gov ernment MUST RE PROMPLY RESPONDED TO. But, WAR ALONE will not save our Union. The rule of action which is used Ito put down an ordinary insurrection is not applicable to a wide spread armed re sistance of great communities. It is wild ness and folly to shut our eyes to this truth. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES CAN THE DIVISION OF THE UNION BE CONCEDED. We will put forth every exertion of pow er. We will hold out every inducement to the people of the South to return to their allegiance, consistent with honor. "We will guarantee thein every right, every consideration, demanded by the Con stitution, and by tbat fraternal regard which must prevail in a common country. HUT WE CAN NEVER VOLUNTARILY CON SENT TO THE BREAKING UP OF THE UNION OF THESE STATES, OR THE DESTRUCTION OF THE CONSTITUTION." Again in a proclamation issued by Gov. Seymour, Oct. 20, 18G3, in response to President Lincoln's oall for troops, he said : "In this emergency it is the duty of all citizens to listen to the appeal put forth by the President, and to give efficient and cheerful aid in filling up the thinned ranks of our armies. U ii due to our brctliern in the field, who have battled so heroically for the flag of our country, the Union of the States, and to uphold the Constitution, and prompt and voluntary assistance should be sent to them in this moment of peril. They went forth in the full confidence that they would at all times receive from their fellow-citizens at home a generous and efficient support. " Every motive of prido and patriotism should impel us to give this bv voluntary and cheerful contributions of men and money, and not by a forced conscription or coercive action ou tho part of the gov ernment" And the people of New York, under the leadership of their noble Governor, lived up to and acted under these senti ments. In fact, Governor Seymour, as the records ot the War Department, show, per formed more efficient service in the rais ing and equipment of troops than any Had ical Governor in all the UriioD. What moie did Judge Chase do ? How is his " war record " any better than this ? We think that no " Republican " who de sired to vote for Chase, can after fully in forming himself in regard to Governor Seymours antecedents, refuse to give his support to the Democratic nominee.— Hartisburg Patriot, Sensation in the Radical Camp--Thad Stevens endorses the Democratic Plat form. The report of the proceedings in the House last Friday contains some inter esting reading for Republicans—doubly interesting when considered in connec tion with Mr. Morton's speech in the Sen ate on Monday previous, arguing strong ly in favor of the payment of U. S. Bonds in the money of the people. The House had under consideration the funding bill, Mr. Ross, ( democrat of 111.) had spoken, when Mr. Stevens sought occasion to ex press his views as follows: MR. STEVENS —Iie had understood the gentleman from Illinois ( Mr. Ross ) to say that the bonds should be paid accord ing to the New York platform ? MR. ROSS—TO pay the five-twenties in lawful money. MR STEVENS —What do you call law ful money ? MR ROSS —Greenbacks ; that is your doctrine and mine, you know. ( Laugh ter. . MR. STEVENS —I hold to the Chicago platform, and, as I understand it, on that point, to the New York platform, and those bonds shall be paid just according to the original contract. A MEMBER —The law, Mr. Stevens, ac cording to the law. MR. IjIK1 j IKE —The spirit and letter of the contract. MB. STEVENS —What was that law 1 — That interest should be paid up to a cer tain time at six per cent, in coin. After the bonds fell due they would be payable in money, just as the gentleman from Illi nois, ( Mr. Ross ) understood it, just as all understood it when the law was enact ed. just as it was explained on the floor a dozen times by the Chairman of the Com mittee on Ways and Means. If 1 knew that any party in the country would go to pay in coin that which is payable in money thus enhancing the debt one half—if I knew that there was such a platform and such o determination on thepart of my own party. I would with Frank Blair and all, vote for the other party: I woutd vote for no such sicindle of the taxpayer of the eot/n --try. I would vote for no such specula tion in favor of large bondholders and millionaires. Mr. Stevens, repeated, though it was hard to say it, that even it Frank Blair stood on the platform of pay ing according to the contract, and if the Republican candidate stood on the plat form of paying bloated speculators twice the amount agreed to pay to them and of taxing his constituents to death, he would vote for Frank Blair even if a worse man than Seymour was on the ticket. ( Much excitement and sensation.) MR. ROSS —The Democratic doors are still open, and the gcutleman can be tak en in. This is a positive endorsement of the financial plank of the Democratic plat form T that" where the obligations of the '■ government do not expressly state npon " their face, or the law under which they " were issued docs not provide, that they " shall be paid in coin, they ought, in right " and in justice, to be paid in tbe lawful " money of the United States." When Thad Stevens pronounces the payment of the debt the paramount issue of the canvass ami declares his readiness to vote for Seymour and Biair upon it, it will not be very difficult for more moder ate Republicans to come to the same con clusion and decide upon similar action. Negro Troops—lmaginary. It has just been discovered tbat the gov ernment was defrauded of over a million and a-haif of dollars in the war office, un der the immaculate Stanton, in the single item of bounties for the negro soldiers who "fought so bravely." Papers tor whole regiments—imaginary ones—which did such wonderful service during the war, two hundred thousand of whom were organized by Stauton (on paper) and who"put down the rebellion." Cameron has now a vote of thanks before Congress to Stanton, for organizing these men of straw and buck ram. The taxpayers will be surprised to learn that the large body of these men nev er fought, never existed, but tbat hey were treated as such by Stanton; the pay was drawn, and Cameron, of course, didn't know it or he wouldn't want to thank Stan ton. Oli,no. The tax-payers are still paving these very bills, and will continue to do so for all eternity if they do not wrest the government from the hands of these thieving radicals.— Exchange.

What do you say "army worm# — liar tilbury Patriot. That Speech. The Radicals are frantic over a speech delivered bj Governor Seymour to a mob which opposed an unfair and oppressive draft in New York City, in July, 1863. — The cause of this riot or mob was the infa mous attempt ot Secretary Stanton to draft twice as many men from the German and Irish districts of Hew York, City in pro portion to the\number enrolled, as were re quired from the Radical districts of the State, It was a mob the at tempted injustice of a merciless and un scrupulous tyrant. Governor Seymour made applicatiou to President Lincoln, who appointed a Committee to execute the enrollment and quotas assigned, aod the flagrant wrong attempted by Stauton was rectified. • So great was the confidence of the peo ple in Governor Seymeur's honesty of purpose, and his determination to see that justice was done, that his appeal was re garded even by the rioters. Peace was restored, the destruction of the city aver ted, and when justice was done by the au thorities at Washington, the draft pro ceeded without interruption. With such a ninny as Grant or Geary in the posi tion of Governor Seymour at that time, the probabilities aie that a large portion of the city of New York would have been destroyed, and the men who are now fore most in attempting to misrepresent Gov. Seymour would have dangled from the lamp posts. But to the speech.
