VERY MEAN
Probably no paper has talked more abbe'
endeavoring to give strangers a favorable im•
preselon of Allentown than the News. Gen.
Han'eock,ot Maryland,eatne among us an utter
stranger, and gentlemen whom he met here,
Democrats as well as Republicans, were won
to his elle by his gentlemanly conduct. At
Catasauqua his speech was conspicuous for its
fairness MA freedom from abuse—a speech
which the most ardent Democrat could not
take exception to. ; It was an Impartial, un
varnished statement of plain facts. arranged,
of course, so that his hearers could rice by
comparison, the superior economy and faith•
ful execution of the laws by.tlre limiefit•• Ad
ministration, as compared w ith• that of An

of expenditure and indebtedness under De

intercourse with our citizens and by his speech
upon the platform, and should have received
the hospitalities due a strangerAe. was not al
lowedto escape the calumny and inisrepresen
tation in which the News delights to indulge.
The editor of that paper was at Cattuffluqua
and in attendance at the meeting, on Wednes
day night, and knew what was said there; yet
we find in the issue of 3 csterany the charge
that Gen..thincock told an obscene story from
the platform which w•as•not fit for ears polite,
the title of whicbglt, as the News says, " the
Keno story." We heard the General's speech
at Calasauqua and we know that he told no
such story, and the General also denies the
charge. Those who listened to him there w ill
know how false, how contemptible the charge
is and will know how little confidence to place
in the utterances of that paper, but the mix•
chief to this case has been done and Gm. Han
cock will carry a copy of the News hack to
the State of Maryland as an evidence of the
kind of hospitality that is extended to gentle
manly strangers in the city of Allentown by
the rauw.r.wt,inivarcy-witi'conoemn such ac
tion of the part of the News, lied the Getter
al been abusive, insulting, or had mis stated
facts, then, probably, the News would have
been justified in resorting to its ordinary abu•
sive languege; but no gentleman will excuse
it for putting words Into the mouth of the
General which he lid sot titter, and which
would compromise the private charsccr of a
gentleman and brave soldier.
NOR fIICAROLINA
The official returns from cightyaiine out o
the ninety-two counties of North Carotin,
show a Republican . majority . of 2.073. The
remaining counties w ill mobably reduce the
majority to 2,300, which is a Republican gain
of about 7,000 over 1870, a more glorious vic
tory than we were Justified iu expecting. The
last Democratic Legisle,ture did everything in
Its power to secure the State permanently to
the Democrats. The most infamous gerry.
mending was resorted to In districting the
State, which had au Injurious effect in the into
election, but in face of these efforts, the large
number of rebels who did not vote before and
the colonization of Tammany jail birds from
New York and white rebels from Virginia,
the Republicans elected their Governor by
over two thousand majority and earned oue
member of Congress, The Republicans have
great cause to congratulate themselves upon
this signal victory, which is, as the Tribune
has said "THE VERDICT OF TDE NA

HONRIT men who seek the welfare of the
country are everywhere flocking to the stand.
and of Grunt. The ranks of the Republicans,
who deserve the title, are virtually unbroken,
and they are daily being reinforced by scores
and hundreds of sincere Democrats who real
ize that in the re-election of Grant alone can
peace and prosperity continue to bless the na
tion. From the Albany Evening Journal we
quote a sample paragraph showing the way
the tide is turning. That Journal rays: "At
a watering.place, not far from this city, with
in LI e plat month, a life-long Democrat of the
city of New New York, a grntli man al out

all of them would vote for Grant; that they
bad known Greeley all his life, and could not
go him for President."
Tau Liberals held a meeting and the
CHRONICI.c stated yesterday that there were
twenty-live renegade Republicans present. It
la hardly necessary to say that we were int.
posed upon. There were scarcely half that
number of renegades. An honest Liberal has
since informed us that all who were there were
made officers and a count 61 these shows sev

of being "receivers of stolen property," and

of this in our own city, whose daily utterances

who are howling about corruption, but he is
not much worse than Forney.
Forney lately published a number of letters
frOm different counties in the State—all writ
ten by ono man—purporting to show opposi
lion to Hartranft and to prove the certainty
of a defoat in October. Adams county was re
ported to a bad way, and the charge has
brought a letter from Gettysburg, which after
denying the report in the Press, and proving
that Hartranq will do better in Adams than
ever before, says :

of himself in 1863. Many can recall a very
siguifrant pt.ssage in his personal history
which it is but Just the general public should
now have. On the eve of the 18th of Novem

a greater number of emment persons than have
ever since, or htfore graced it. 0:1 that even

which distinguished him. Pennsylvanians

the happiest vein ; but there must be a spectre
at the feast. John W. Forney was cal ed and

Much to the surprise of every one, he congrat

THE LEHIGH REGISTER, ALLENTOWN, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 28,1872.
THE IRON MEN.
The iron mon of the Lehigh Valley, of
whom Davld Thomas, Esq., of Gattisauqua,is
a representative, know Horace Greeley. They
knew him when, as a newspaper editor, he
aavocated Republican prlnclples,one of which
is Protection to American Industry. They
know 111111'11°w as a Presidentiai candidate,
when, f ,, r the sake of conciliating Free Tra
ders, the life-long enemies of the Industries of
America, he accepted a nomination upon the
Cincinnati platform a plank of which is' virtu.
ally Frie Trade. Horace Greeley, as a news-
paper man, did good service in assisting to ed
ucate the American people to ace that Pro
ction was not only a local benefit, but spread
prosperity over the whole country. The peo
ple now pretty generally understand what is
good for them and those who have their eyes
open w 11l not trust a man, green though hie
age may be and splended his talents, who af
ter battling ter thirty years for Protection,gnes
back on his recora and for the sake of office
phdges himself not to influence legislation
either for or against a Tariff, and to sign a
Free Trade bill in the event of its passage by
Congress. The iron men of - the Lehigh Val
ley and the masses of the people turn with dis
gust from the contemplation of the treachery
of this individual, whom the opposition pa
pers represent as a saint, and renew their al
legiance to that PARTY whose grand old re
cord eclipses the acts of the bravest and beet
individual who ever lived in history.
.This
PARTY gave the country the Protective Tariff
a - 41860, to which the Lehigh Valley is ludebt
ed for its present business and industrial inter.
ests ; this PARTY'S record throughout the wat
is one which mattes every Republican proud
of having belonged twit ; this PAU:cit, niter
carrying the Nation through the most gigan
tic rebellion which ever raised its power
against auy nation, rescued the control of the
Government from the hands of the most un
scrupulous Executive - that ever filled' the
Presidential chair.. In his stead this PARTY
placed a man of clear brain, conscientious de
sires and firm executive ability, who, aided by
the clear heads of able Constitutional advisers,
restored confidence to business relations, im
proved the National credirat bonne and abroad,
and by a firm, but humane policy, brought
order out of chaos In the Southern States and
enabled them to resume their legitimate pord-
Owls in the Government. This rAterv,through
its Executive and its Representatives in Con
gress, is responsible tor the fidancial policy
of the Government which has given our city
unit Valley such an ' impetus, and against
which policy Horace Greeley has been pet - -
13151=16 , fighting for the past three years. It
would be impossible to enumerate lu this short
article hull tile bleesings that have been be- ,
stowed upon this country by the Administra
tion of President Grunt, but those who have
the election of President in their power know
well enough to whom we are indebted and
they will cast their votes for that luau—Presi
dent Grant.
It is idle to recount what Horace Greeley
has done. It may be news to Democruts,but
it is not to us. For his past good acts we
arc ready to award him all honor, and will,
when he dies,forget his advocacy oh secession,
his annoyance mid hampering of President'
Lincoln, his "peace on any terms" propnat
lionS, his bailing of J. IF Davis and his attempt
to disrupt the Republican party ; but us fur
voting; for him for President as a reward Fur
his advocacy ut Repuulicau principles, we
eaa't do it. The New York Tribune certain
ly did good service for the rawly and the
CARTY has dune good service for the Tribune,
--it p itronized it liberally and made nor.
..ce rich. The ' , Ann' honored llorace when
lie was apparently honest and it was al is Rya
ready to give hint a prominent position in the
Govettnent, but it could not conscientiously

ble financial hobbies would be more titan the
country could bear—what would become ul
us, if, in addition, we were subjected to all
the ills his Rebel supporters in Congress
would bring upon us !
The iron men of the Lehigh Valley are in-
IlL,ent. They understand the situation
well. They know tile Tura is safest iu the
hands of the rattly' tt i.h which they have
voted tor sixteen years, and they know its can•

rs an important consideration, our iron men,
in their adher. nee to the Republican party,
are actuated also by other principles which
illumine the brightest pages in our history
and ate too holy to be within the comprehen
sion of 1110612 niarrow-miuded, bigoted indi
viduals Wilt/ hoped, in the dark ,days of the
war, that, the Nation would be destroyed.
Tuft Dumuurms must have very little pride,.
or rise their desire fur office Is fearfully
strong. They have consented to vote for
Horace Greeley for Ole highest (ace in the
gilt 1.1 the people and the Liberals tell us that
he is still us good a.Hepublican as he ever was.
We all know what toe Democrats have said of
Horace and what Horace has said of them.
Yet they have shown themselves ready fo co
tliterate with the Liberals to endeavor to 'elect
him. Now, what do the Liberals do in re
turn for this favor upou the part of the two

Lack upon themselves for the time being ? Do

one of them in Allentown "are you going to
the,Denmeratic meeting to Sight I"' "No,"
will be the reply, "we don't belong to that

erals consider themselves the body-guard
of Horace' Greeley—an aristocratic kind of
politicians, us Ito consider the Democrats good
enough to vote Mr Greeley, but too low to as.
stickle with. The Liberal considers himself
above Democrats. lie believes to-day as
firmly in what Ore& ley said of them as he
ever did. Is it not humiliating to those Dem
ocrats who have a Spark of manhood left ?

WHAT CAN BE DONE.
n 1868 the Republicans polled 842,280 votes
The euthuelasm, the Inter
n Pennsylvania
est and determination manifested throughout
the State Indicates that we shall poll our full
vote this year, which, allowing for the na•urj
al Increase, will amount to not kiwi than MO
000 In October and more in November. But
we have some men in our party who will net
vote for Hartranft. They are few in numi ers
and will not amount to more than 6000 in the
State, not including Lancaater, which will be
balarc:d by Buckslow's unpopularity in
Basks. This loss would cut our natural vote
down to 344,000. To this wo must add the
negro vote which was not polled in 1868.
This Is estimated at 15,000, but placing it at
12,000,4 will give us a total of 850,000 in the
State fo? Hartranft. Now, under ordinary
circumstances, we could not poll this vote at
a Governor's election, had we not the excl:e•
ment and inspiration of a Presidential contest
to enable us to get out the vote. The expo•
rlence of the past thirty years shows that our
estimate of the vote which will be cast in Oc-
tobcr is founded upon a solid foundation. It
is a rule that never did fall and never will.
The next thing to consider is what is the
probable vote that will be cast for the Demo-
antic candidate for Governor. If the Demo
erne} , had a popular nominee of their own
persuasion for President they would have lit.
tie difficulty in polling their fulll vote of no
less than 325,000, or 331,000 with their acces•
slims from the Republicans. But their nom
inec Mr President is decidedly objectionable
to a very large portion of the party—say one
third—and at least another third does not
show the same enthusiasm for Greeley that it
would for a regular Democratic nominee. The
party is, therefore, withotit the stimulus of a
Presidential election and It can hardly be ex
pected to poll a much larger vote in October
than at an ordinary Governor's election. In
1869, against an unpopular Republican nom,
nee, and with the brightest hopes of success,
Packer polled only 285 956 votes, and if the
Democracy, in face of the strong repugnance
to their Presidential nominee, can this year
poll 800,000 votes for Buckalew, they will be
doing as much as can be expected. This
would give Ilartranft a majority of 46,000.
This 56,000, then, shows what the Republi
cans kayo to work upon In the present contest
and a glorious victory can only be achieved
by thorough organization and hard work.
The party was never in better condition to re
spond readily to the efforts of the workers.
There is an enthusiasm, determination and
confidence in the Republican party, and with
all due appreciation of the Importantlissues at
stake, which betokens success. With hard
work we may carry the State by 15,000, but
if we all join hands and go Into the fight in
solid column, every man resolved to do his
best, we can carry it by 50,000.
The Democrats are very boastful. They
were also sure of victory in 1869. They arc
confident that their Gubernatorial fight, un
aided by the influence of a Presidential elec
tion, will bring out their full. vote. Just so
were they in 1869. In addition to their old
line political tricksters, they have Alex Mc-
Clure to assist them in sharp games; but
fraud will not overcome the loss of the inilu
coca of many good, active farmers In nearly
every township throughout - the Stale, wile
have lost confidence in their leaders through
the sale at Baltimore.

is the mark for every venomous arrow, and,
since the must bear the shock of the battle, it
is our duty as good Republicans, all the more
firmly to stand by him. I for one, have good
reason to know that his personal and otligisi
integrity is above reproach. Late In the Leg
islative session of last winter I was unwillingly
made acquainted with those who are now and
were then in conspiracy against hint. About
nine o'clock in the morning I received a time
requesting my prkence at one of the rooms
of the Lochiel. There I was Introduced by
line of my , constituents, who it was subse
quently shown was one of Evans's securities,
to George 0. Evans, accused of appropriating
$2:11,000 of the State's money, to Dr. Payne,
the Attorney Strohan and others. 'These par
ties Wished me to introduce to the house a
series of resolutions impeaching the honesty of
Malmo It iu his managetnent of the auditing
department, and of Mackey, the chief of tile
Treasury. They went into a long explanati,n
of their proposed movement, and endeavored
to pledge me that if I became its legislative
champion my name should be heralded
throughout the State and Nation as a "model
reformer." They spoke largely of their
power and means, saying that they could
control $500,000, not for the purchase of votes
in favor of the re solutions, but as moral sup
port to the movement —that this amount and
this support would come through some un
named channel of reform. They named many
of the newspapers which could be freely
counted upon to b..eir the undertaking by glow-
ing articles and such evidence as would et least
waken suspicion In the public mind. Among
these newspapers were named the New York
Tribune and Sun. the Philadelphia Press and
Lancaster. Harrisburg an' Pittsburgh journals
of large influence. An introduction of the re
solutions would be immediately followed by
flaming articles from these and other sources,
and, if necessary, the question could be pushed
In the Legislature by speeches, and evidence
could be procured sufficient to injure Dart
anft's chances for a nomination and election.
When asked far this evidence, a draft, a note,
one or two private letters, and the books of
Yerkes & CO. were shown. • An ezaminaUon

own—this, as they were told, with a view to
intimidate Hartranit from any further prose.

asked to treat the cony, rsatihn as confiden

it, that as a friend I would tell him, and his
after conduct. would attest his guilt or inno
cence. Somewhat to my surprise, they then
manifested a willingness that he should he in
formed of what had transpired, and then my
suspicions were confirmed that the whole move
went was designed to scare hint off from a
proper prosecution. I however told Hartranft
a few minutes alter. Ills reply was n "The e

THE PIEBALD FRAUDS
The Expenditures of johlinnWl. anti Gravies Ad
minixtralionx GrnAnly foul llf inrepro
ftented—The Erauil Exposed and the Pads De
clared.
WASHINGTON, August 29.--A pamphlet has
been isnuetl in this city, printed tor distribu
tion by the National Demo'cratic Executive
CoMmittee, and published in the New York
Norld a few days ago, entitled "Treasury
Frauds." The greatest fraud, however, is the
pamphlet itself. This document, pretending
to give official figures, Was prepared at the
office cf a claim agent here,
who was a well
known time•server under Andrew Johnson.
It says: "By reference to the finance report
for 1870, page 276, it will he seen that during
the last three years of Johnson's administra
tion he reduced the debt $294,439,398 63."
Now the official figures in the report referred
to do not show any such thing. They show
the reduction to be $147,400,914.57.
The Pamphlet says farther: " For the last
year ofJohnson's Administratton the total ex
penditure of the Government was (see Finan
dal Report, 1871, page 367) $584.777,096.11.
For the next three years, under Grant's Ad.
ministration, the expenditures were as fol.
lows: (Sec Filmic at Report, same volume
and page.) $1.872.907.842.88; for 1871, $391,•
680.858.00 ; for 1872, (see Register's books.)
$682.595.270 21 ; for 1873, $2 077,113.971.99
—an average expenditure of $699.371.323.99.
The cost tinder Johnson was $584 777.996 11.
The amount in excess of Grant over Johnson;
$107.593 227.88."
These figures do not in any sense represent
the expenses of administering the Govern
ment, for the reason that they include, in ad•
(Edon to the ordinary expenditures on ac
count of the same, the redemption of the pub
tic debt. However, for the purpose of mak
ing a fair comparison, I give the figures, from
the name page and column of the same report
of the expenses of the last three fiscal years 01
Andrew Johnson's Administration. They
are as follows : For 1866. $1.139,344.09'.9 ;
for 1867. $1,093 079 655 27 ; ti,r 1868, $1.069.-
889.970 74—53,30:3,313.707.96. The average
annual extientlitures under Johnson were $l,-
100,771 235.99.
The annual expenditures, as shown in the
Claim Agency ptimpliht,Wee $692.371,323 90,
MK/wing the Grant expoolitures to tie less
than Johnson's $408,399,912.
The figures representing the alleged cost
under the last year of Johnson's Administra
t.on as $584,747,694 11 are given in the Fi
nance Report, page and column above referred
to, not for the last year of Joh nom, as claimed
in the pamphlet, but for the fiscal year 1809,
onethird of which was under the Administra
tion of President Grant. And, as will be seen
by the above, the average annual expenses of
the last three fiscal years of Johnson was $l,-
100,771,235.99.
Throwing aside the jugglery and misrepre
sentation of this pamphlet in respect of the or
dinary expenditures of Johnson and Grant, in
cluding the interest on the public debt. I now
gave theoffic al figures from the books of three
of the offices of the Treasury; viz : the Secre.
terry, Controller, and R. gister, They are as
follows : For the last fiscal year of Johnson,
$377,340.284 86. 'For the last flocs I Sear of
Grant, $277,517,962.67; showing the real act
nal annual xptootitures under Grant to be
$99. 822,322 19 less than under Johnson.
One more quotation from the pamphlet. In
addition to this,during Johnson's last year the
debt was redur ed $147.318.484. 09. [See fi
nance report 1870, page 276.]
The report referred to shows no such state.
ment. 'the debt statements published by Sir.
McCulloch, Johnson's Secretary 'of the
Treasury, show the re.luction of the debt dur
ing his Administra ion to be $216,457,095.84
effected during the following years : Front
March 1, 1806, (the date at which the deb:
was greatest,) to March 1, 1867, $190,014,110.-
42; March 1, 1867, to March 1, 1868, $90,-
482 260 96; March 1, 1868, to March 1, 1869,
$5 050,718 40.
'I he entire document is full of the grossest
misrepresenintion. The preceding exposure
of several oh its more glaring Otisstutements
will convince all fair minced persons of the
fraudulent character of the whole pamphlet,
and stamp it as utterly unworthy of the
slightest credit.
COLONEL Mosul', the famous guerilla chief,
has just written a letter on the Presidential
question, in which among a number 01 other
telling points against Greeley he wants to
know in what manner his elevation to the
Presidency would relieve the Southern States
from the incubus of "the carpet-baggers,"
about which he talked HO much in his New
England speeches? Colonel Mosby points out
that these "carpet buggers" have attained
..... lir ar . utta n"thl
lug President Grant's administration has been
done, not by Federal, but by State officials.
If Greeley proposes, as Pres:dent, to overrule
or expel them ri et armis, what becomes of
the boasted local , self-government which his
election is to inaugurate ? Thig is a very in•
teresting, although somewhat perplexing,
question, and it is to be hoped that Mr. Gree•
Icy, or his organ for him, will kindly under :
take to solve the dashing C'olonel's riddle.
