BE ASSESSED.
Let every Township Committee
see to it,. that every Republican vote
in the Township is Assessed. Every
Republican voter who knows that
he is not Assessed should go at once
to the Assessor in person and have
it done. Republicans Work! Work ! '
Work !! ! A glorious victory awaits
you
BE ON VIE ALERT ! H
REPUBLICANS of Centre county, we
are reliably informed that W. W.
Wallace and the leaders of the Cop
perhead party in this county have
commenced colonizing voters.
They are reckless men and will
resort to any means to carry the
election. Last year they used the
Coffee-pot. This year they have
not only the Coffee-pot, but they
have resorted to colonization. Watch
them closely.
Since writing the above caution,
a reliable voter, who does not wish
his name published at present, came
intp our office and informed us that
Mr. Frederick Smith, saloon keeper,
on Bishop street, had offered him
$5,00 for his vote. Our informant
has; heretofore, been a Democrat,
but has determined to vote the Re
publican ticket. Hence the attempt
to buy his vote. He says that under
Democratic administrations, he got
nothing but orders for his work.
Now he gets Greenbacks. These,
he says, are good enough for him.
Will Mr. Smith be kind enough
to inforai us who hired him to pur
chase voters at five dollars a head
God save :the country from the
Rebels and their sympathizers.
Republicans, Awake! ArOuse !
"How can the soldiers vote against
"Mr. Mackey ?" asks the Clinton
Democrat, and then goes on to say :
"When the war broke out, Mr.
" Mackey was one of the first men in
" thb county to assist Col. Jarrett in.
"raising his company." &c., &c.
That may be all true ; but Mr.
Mackey was an "Abolitionist" then.
What is he now? Benedict Arnold
once had the confidence of General
Washington ; yet he betrayed Wash
ington and the.country. You know
the result of his treachery. You
have also,•no doubt, read of Judus
Iscariot. With his history you are
familiar. He betrayed -- his best
frier4d and then wed, out and hung
him Self. The soldiers might praise
Mr.' Mackey for what he did in 1861,
but they hate stragglers and rene
gades. They now find Mr. Mackey
acting with the "Grey" coats, and it
calls to their memories the late "un
"pleasantness," Benedict Arnold,'
&c., &c. The soldiers will vote for
Hon. Wm. H. Armstrong. We
hope, however, Mr. Mackey will not
strangle himself; he has already
committed political suicide.

as.hoard from, 20,317.
L. A. MACKEY AND EQUAL TAXATION.
The following paragraph we clip
from the Centre Hall "Reporter"
of last week. It is not our inten
tion to advertise this-little eight by.
ten sheet; nor to talkits publisher
into notoriety;. but Merely refer -to
it for the : purpose
,of showing our
readers what the views of: Mr.
ma - ek - q-are, and te . give a few rea
sons for being in favor of "Equal
" Taxation?! Here is the item. •
. says all property should be
-taxed equally, according to the valne."
The editor,ofthe "Reporter" says
so, and we presume-he is :At)Od: De-
Mountie authority. For this reason
we propose to make it the text fOr.a
few remarks, for the benefit of our
Denmertic, friends.
. .
It is well known by all owners
and renters of real estate, that it Re
publican Legislature repealed • the
law levying taxes -thereon, except
the half mill tax which was : assessed
to pay the loan of three millions of
dollars-borrowed during the Demo
cratic rebellion to put our State upon
a war fcoting. This tax being re
moved from farms, houses, lots and
other real estate,, it became neces
sary to levy taxes on • other spedies
of property more able to bear it, con
sequently corporations and men
owning tine carriages, gold watches,
silverware, t.t.7c., were selected, as
the proper peisons, most able to bear
it. •
Now, it is well known that Mr.
Mackey is President of the : Lock
Haven National Bank ; 'that he . is
President of the Bald Eagle Valley
Railroad Company; that he is, also,:
one of the Directors of the Weit
Branch Canal—all mammoth corpo
rations—and must therefore neces
sarily pay heavy taxes thereon; in
consequence of which farmers and
individual owne. s of real estate are
exem
' The statistics, notwithstanding the
Demodratic lies on the subject, sh&w* .
that the National - BaUks paid to tlie:
general Government last year 2.29_
per cent. and to the State .Grovern
ntent 2.32 per. cent. on their capital:
stock, making 4.61 per cent. in all.
It is well known to every reader,
that for every $lOO,OOO of bonds de
posited with the Treasurer, that
$90,000 of National Bank currency
is furnished for circulation; . But
this is not all. -The Banks are' re
quired to retain one-third of. their.
circulation, or of the s9o;ooo,either
in National Bank currency, or legal,
tender notes, as a ,- reserve fund,
which only allows them a circula
tion of $60,000 out of every $lOO,-
000. 'Therefore, if the taxes amount
to 4.61 per cent. on every $lOO of
their capital stock, then it is clear.
that on every 8100,000 the tax would
be $4,610 00. But they are per-,
mitted, as above stated, to put in
circulation only two-thirds, or $60,-
000 ; hence the tax upon this amount
paid to the State and National Gov
ernments is equal to 7 7-10 per cent.
upon their circulation.
As to the taxes on other corpora
tions, we have not the statistics be
fore us to quote from, at present;
but can assure our readers that the
Paid Eagle Valley R. R. Co., and
West Branch Canal Co., have to pay
their full share of them. Elenbe,
Mr. Mackey's reasons for being in
favor of "Equal Taxation on every
"species of property according to
"its real value'," as set forth. in the
fourth resolution of the Seymour
and Blair platform. Mr. MaCkey
desires his taxes diminished, and to
this end proposes to place them upon
real estate; upon the homes of me
chanics and laboring men, and upon
the cot of the poor widow. Mackey
is a sharp businessman ; knows,
(although a Know-Nothing), enough
to tell where his interests lie—in.
other words, which side of his bread
is buttered, He has lived off the
necessities of the people so long
that we do not wonder that he has li
no sympathy with them and no de-
Ore to advance any persons interest
but his . own.
Farmers of Centre county! if you
wish the taxes upon "Bloated Bond
" holders," and "Soulless Corpora
" Lions" diminished, and your farms
taxed according to their real value,-
vote for L. A. Mackey, for our text
says clearly and emphatically, that
he is in favor of this policy.
THE CENTRE COUNTY AGRICULTURAL
SOCIETY
The posters and_ premium lists for
the Annual Exhibition to be held
from the Gth to the 9th day of Oc
tober, inclusive, at the new fair
grounds near Bellefonte, have been
distributed and are now before the
people. Upwards of two thousand
dollars have been expended in fitting
up these grounds, and in beauty of
location and , adaptedness to the pur
poses intended, are unsurpassed by
those of any society in the State.
call upon citizens not only to
come to the exhibition, but to bring
with them for exhibition, the pro
ducts of their industry—as well pro
ducts. of 'household manufactures
and the mechanic arts, as those of
the farm—Las well specimens of the
mineral wealth of our county, in its
native state,. and specimens of all
the implements, machinery and arti
cles of commerce into which it is
being converted in our own county
by the hands of skilled -labor.
In this way, and in this way only,
will these exhibitions become what
they are desired to be, and "what
they should be—expositions of the
industrial enterprise of Centre county
Let every one, therefore, take up
the preMium list and ask himself or
herself, what can I take to the ex
hibition Even if they . should not
find a premium offered for the pro
duct of their industry, let them - still
take a sample. .If deserving notice,
it will be fliorably noticed by the
committee on miscellaneous articles
and lead to the offer of a suitable
premium another year.

THE 'DEMOCRACY ON THE FIVE-TWEN-
TIES
The -leaders , of • the DeMO . oratie.
party - are very buSy now in obeying
the of
_Gov_. Seymour, to
"push the tales" and theqUeition of
"Bonds." . Indeed;

Out upon such base hypocrasy I
The Centre 11411 Reporter of :the
18th inst., contains the following par=
agraph in which the Editor exposes
not only his ignorance ; but his
desire to deceive the people, by
downright lying : •
"The Bellefonte National has long col
umns and broad pages, but not ono word
in all, to explain whether the 'letter and
Spirit' of the radical platform means green
backs or gold for payment of the .5--205."
To intelligent men it neads no ex=
planation ; but we desire in answer
to this Copperhead howl, and for the
information of the Democratic Watch
man at the same time, to call atten
tion to the fact that the provision
making the interest on these bonds
payable in gold was inserted in the
bill by the vote of Democrats. - Ali.
Stevens, then chairman of the Corti..
mittee on the subject, vehemently
opposed the proposition, .and fifty
five Republicans voted agaliagit; to
forty-three in its favor.- But. forty
five Democrats voted in favor of it,
and only tiro against it, and thus
became a law. The following Demo. ?
crats voted in its favor :
"Sydenham E. Ancona of Penn.,.
Charles J. Biddle of Penn., Wm. G.
Brown of W. Va., George H. Browne
of R. 1., Charles B. Calvert efi

It will be observed that among
these names is . that of George H.
Pendleton now so strong a green
backer as to be known by the name
of "Young Greenbacks." He was
for paying the interest in gold then..
We discover also the name - of the
"great" Vallandigham and of the
scarcely less noted Voorhees recorded•
in favor-of bard money. •We believe
that these gentlemen voted right
then, thOugh the loan was then just
to be issued, and Congress had the
power to
,prescribe its terms. But
having been once issued, and the in--
terest having been fixed at this rate
and made payable
. in . . coin. by: the
votes of these very geritlerrept,h4t:
shall we say of their honesty when
they turn around and demand that
we repudiate this solemn pledge ?-
Surely the Centre Hall Reporter and
the . Watplinzak must believe as we do
on this question, or brand their
members of Congress with ignorance
in voting for the law. Or say that
they were smart and that their sYni- -
pathibs wl.9h traitors, compelled them
thus to. vote, to injure the soldier and
the widow of the .soldier. . Gentle
men, which horn of the diIeMMU
will you take?
We most respectfully request-that
you. copy this article and for .once
give your readers. the pleasure of
reading the truth.
Ir is amusing to see* how elonga
ted the face of the Editor of the
Watchman has been since the news
from Vermont and Maine has reach
ed his ears. During the war when
ever he heard of a Union victory, his
face became so long, that he could
have eaten oats out of a- churn. He
looks just the same way now. Can
you draw no consolation Mr. Editor,
from Wade Hampton's last rebel
ebulitkon ?
nu.: Tr - ad/man has, like Horatio
Seymour, got itself into "a sea •of
trouble" on the question of "Equal
taxation." The farmers cannot un
derstand why their taxes should be
double what they are . now. • Meek.-
refuses to explain. Farmers of
Centre, Mr. Meek dare not explsin...
Isis thedry is direct taxes and free
trade.
YESTERDAY morning, when the Cop
perheads were getting ready - teleaVe Belle
fonte fo r tl:e Celle Ran mass meeting,
Mr. John Lutz drove into town with .a
Seymour and Blair tag upon one horse
and a Grant tis Colfax flag upon the other.
He did not know the difference until an
honest Republican informed him of his
mistake. is he a type of the intelligence
that is opposing Grant and Coltitx?- if he
is not a subscriber to the Watchman he
should be.
