THE SICKLE AND THE SHEAF
BY REV. 13. F. smprxr, D. D
Lord, 'tis mine to wield the sickle,
Thine to give the golden sheaf;
As through Theo the buds of spring -time
Quicken into life and leaf:
Mine to meet the toil of seed-time,
Thine to give the sun and rain ;
Mine the sweat, the care, tho patience,
Thine the heaps of precious grain.
Though the wan and weary reapers
Amid their labors fall,
And the few and scattered workmen
In vain for helpers call;
Though the noontide heat burns fiercely,
Or the threatening tempest lowers—
The gathering and the gleaning
Arc by mightier strength than ours.
We can bear with calm endurance
While the sun curls up the leaf;
We can trust Jehovah-jireh
To fill the swelling sheaf;
'Tis ours the sturdy muscle,
The powerful arm, to bring;
'Tis Thine with heavenly blessing
To make the valleys sing.
We shall reach the outmost furrows
In their drooping tassels drest ;
We shall leave the field of labor,
We shall find a place of rest;
We shall meet again the reapers ..
Who once shared our grief and joy;
In the harvest song of heaven
We shall find one blest employ.
The eagle from her eyrie
Flies forth at dawn of day.
Poised on her fearless pinions,
With God to guide her way,—
Soars upward, as the morning
Glows in God's glory bright,
On,—till her form receding,
Looses itself in light.
So when the work is ended,
The garnered crops secure,
And God shall bid His reapers
Toil in the heat no more—
We from all care and sorrow
Shall find divine relief.
And lay before our Master.

Letter from Wm. P. Wilson
I=l
Last evening the largest meeting of the
campaign was assembled to listen to a
speech from Dr. Doane, of Williamsport.
It had been previously announced in hand
bills, and otherwise, that a ineeting would
be held, and it was expected that there
would be a large turn out, but the crowd
in attendance exceeded the anticipations
of every one, and the enthusiasm which
prevailed was an earnest of what may be
expected here on the second Tuesday of
October and in November next.
The procession, nuenbering over five
hundred, was formed in front of the Club
Room. From thence they marched to the
points selected for the meeting of the dele
gations from the various townships. After
getting these delegations into line, the
procession was formed in the following
order.
Boalsburg Brass Band.
Tanners-Club from Milesburg.
Tanners Club from Milesburg Iron
Works.
Grant 13. atallion of Bellefonte, consisting
of Companies A, B, and C.
Tanners Club from Benner Township.
Grant Hussars from Harris Township;
mounted.
Delegations from neighboring townships,
i gons.
These delegations were under the com
mand of their respective officers.
OFFICERS
Chief Marshal—Gen. Jas. A. Beaver.
Assistant Marshals—Col. Theo. Gregg,
Maj. P. B. Wilson, Dr. Geo. F. Harris, J.
J. Morris, John Bowers, Thos. Crawford,
Daniel Leathers, and' thers.
The procession then marched to • the
corner of Linn and Spring streets, and
while there the Democratic procession,
with lamps draped in mourning, and with
bell sadly and woefully tolling the • death•
knell of the Democracy, passed the entire
length of our lines. Not a word was
spoken—not a cheer was given,.but out of
respect for the departed dead the Tanners.
came to apresent . arms, and stood in this
position until the funeral' had.passed. The
Democrats, of course, being' engaged 4i
this solemn and painful duty, it could not
be expected that they would m li atlfest any
great enthusiasm. It would have been in
appropriate. Altogether it was' the, most
pitiful and heart-rending sight it ever was
our misfortune to witness. Aged men,
doubtless sincere in their grief, although
entirely ignorant of what our country re
quires to restore it to healthfulness, tottered
along with this mournful cortage to pay
their last mark of respect to the putrid
corps: A friend said as the procession
passed slowly by, requiscat inpace. •
By request of the Democratic, County
Committee we, publish the foll Owing : •
DIED.
In Bellefonte, October 2, .I.S6S, The
Great Democratic Party. The deceased
has been very feeble for several years, but
'since the Vermont and Maine elections has
been sinking 'rapidly, until hit evening,
when all vitality left it. A'few ceremonies
yet remain to be performed on the second
Tuesday of this month, when this '"Great
Democratic Party" in -Centre county will
be consigned to the tomb forever. ..
After this solenni'prosession had passed,
and the Milesbnrgsdelegation arrived, the
command was given—" Forward March."
Up Linn to Allegheny, along Allegheny
to the Diamond, thence down High, to
Spring, up Spring to Bishop, up Bishop to
Allegheny, up Allegheny to the Court
House, around the Court House, and from
thence to the Giant and COlfav Club
Roam, whdre the order was given rest at
will.
The meeting was now organized by ap
pointing the following officers :
PREsmENT—Hon. Andrew Gregg
VICE PRESIDENT-COL Jas. Ste Wart, of
Harris; Jno. R. Tate, of Spring; Alex.
Knoll, of Howard; Capt. C. Dale, of Ben..
ner ; Richard Miles, of Milesburg ; Geo. M.
Swartz, of Walker; Elias Zimmerman of
Marion, and .Dr. J. M. Blair, of Union-
ville.
SECRETARIES-R. A. Kinsloe, and Lieut.
Thos. Crawford, of Boggs.
The meeting was called to order by the
President. •
Mr. Wilson, in appropriate remarks,lntio
duced the speaker of the evening, Dr.
Doane. It would be impossible to report
the Doctor's speech. To say that, it was
good, and that everybody was well pleased,
aye, more, delighted, is all that is necessary.
A rain storm coming up about nine
o'clock, the speaker, officers and audience
adjourned to the Court louse, when the
Doctor spoke until eleven o'clock. After
the conclusion of his remarks, the Glee
Club sang a song, after which the meeting
adjourned, everyone feeling with pleased
himself, and everybody also. The grand
funeral in the early part of the evening was
the only thing that occurred to 'mar the
pleasure of the entire evening proceedings.
INcTLENTs.—At the office of the NA
TIONAL a very handsome transparency
was displayed. The front of the building,
was brightly illuminated. Each company,
as they passed the office, gave three rousin
cheers for the
. organ of their party.
Three cheers were also given in front of
Mr. Jno. T. Johnson's house, which was
also illuminated and gaily decorated.
Oris - ru of our motives for issuing the NA
TIONAL EXTRA, at the time is to announco
The lION. J. B. McENALLY, as an
Independent candidate for President Judge.
We have received a letter from Mr. H. B.
Swope, of Clearfield announceing the fact ,
and also a letter, from McEnally himself,
stating, in substance, the same. Let the
people everywhere, independent of politics,
go to work, and elect Judge iNfeEnally.
The following letter from Wm. P. Wil
son, chairman of the Union Bepublican
County Cemmittee, will explain itself :
BELLEFONTE, Oct. 3d, ISGS.
To TILE VOTERS OF CENTRE COUNTY
lion. Geo. R. Barrett, of Clearfield,
havidg withdrawn as a candidate for Judge
of this Judicial District, the ion. J. B.
McEnally, of Clearfiield, who is now Judge
of this District, has been announced as a
candidate. Let all men, without distinc
tion of party, vote for Judge McEnally, and
keep the Judiciary aloof from politics.

EVERY Tanner Club throughout the
County is expected to be in the ranks of
the
GBAND TOTICILLIGHT PROSESSIOZ,Z,
to come of next Frfday night in Bellefonte
Speeches will be made by Gen. Hancock
of Maryland, and Gen. Rinks of Massachu
setts. The largest assemblage of this or
any other campaign is expected upon this
occasion. Let us be up and doing. One
good strong pull at this time, forever places
this County into the hands of the Repub
lican party. When this is done, and not
before, tax payers can look for a reduction
in their taxes.
Let all who can conic be in attendance,
and help swell the ranks and also swell
the majority at the October and Novem
ber elections.
Mn. MAYER, the Democratic candidate
for Judge of this district, is descending to,
and using all the tricks of the pot-house
politicians. He attends political meetings
makes political speeches, and acts in all
respects, as if he were a candidate for a
purely political office. How will our demo
eratic friends reconcile this course with
their oft repeated assertions, that the Judi
ciary should be selected without regard to
political bias and proclivities.
NO QUARTER SPEECH OF GEN FORREST
OF FORT PILLOW. •
The Memphis Avalanche publishes the
following report of a speech made in Brown
ville,. Tennesee, last week, by General For
rest, who massacred the negroes at Fort
Pillow. The numerous assassinations by
Kuklux Khans has rendered the calling out
of the militia necessary tor the protection
of all loyal citizens, black and white. In .
'case these amusements should be interfear
ed with by the Governor and .Legislature,
General Forrest and his associate generals
threaten war and "no quarter :"
PRESIDENT AND FELLOW-CITIZENS
I did not think that I would be called upon
to address you at this time, as it was inten
ded, and I believe expected that I would
speak to you to-night., have been. labor
ing under sickness for a few days, and
have been suffering from a sore throat, so
that at the present time I Nill be only able
to say a few words to you. Last week I
received a dispatch from Generals Cheath
am,Brown, Quaris and others to the effect
that I was wanted in Nash Ville in regard
to some important business in connection
with the calling out of the militia, and
When I received that dispatch,' I started at
lonce. When • I arrived at Nashville, I
found fifteen Confederate Generals engag
ed in a conference with about thirty lead
ing citizens. Givat fears had been expres
•sed about the calling out of the militia, as
many were of the opinion that it would
lead to bloodshed of a very serious character.
,GOvernor Brownlow had stated in his Ines
:. • •
sage to the Legislature that all who belong
to the Kuklux Klan were to be. declared
outlaws, and he gave out and declared that
.these Klaus were composed of soldiers
who had been in the Confederate army. I
believe that Governorßrownlow thinks
that all Confederate soldiers, and, in fact
the whole Democratic party in the South,
belong fothe Kuklux Klan. [Cheers and
laughter:] All are declared outtaivs ; for
the Governor says that he has nodoubt they
belong to the klanyif there is such a , clan.
The Legislature has passed some laws I
helieve,*ori this subject, in Which. the . mili
tia are instructed to shock doivn all, the Ku
Eluxe's they may find, and they need fear
no. prosecution for doing so. *That is, simp
ly, that they; may call. a Confederate sol
dier a Kuklux,• shoot him down, and no
haiin should befall any of the militia who
may commit such an outrageous act ; for
Governor Brownlow has:proclaimed them
all as outlaws. [Applause.] When this is
done, I tell you, fellow-citizens, there will
be civil war. : If the Radical Legislature,
with Governor Brownlow, arms the ne
groes, and tells them to shoot down all
Confederate soldiers, on the ground that
they are members of the Kuklux Klan, - as
they call it and outlaws, then, in my opin
ion there will be civil war in Tennesse. [Ap
plause.]
It is not our policy to get into another
civil war, or a war of any kind at the pres
ent time, as it would be used against us and
weaken our cause in the North, and I have
advised every Confederate soldier whom I
have met lately to do all in his power to
prevent war of any kind faking place in
Tennessee. •
[As there was a very large crowd in the
Court House square, General Forest was
requested to go outside and continue his
speech, as all were very anxious to hear
him. He accordingly did so, after the de
liberations of the convention closed.]
General Forest continued his remarks by
saying : I received a letter. from General S.
R. Anderson, of Nashville, a few days ago,
and he stated to me in that letter that he
considered the action of Gov. Brownlow,
in relation to the militia, a declaration of
war if the militia were called out under his
proclamation. This is also my opinion. I
can assure you, fellow citizens, that I, for
one, do not want any more war. I have
seen it in all its phrases, and believe me
when I say so, that I don't want to see any
more bloodshed, nor do I want to see ne
groes armed to shoot down white men. If
they bring this war upon us, . there is one
thing I will tell you—that I shall not shoot
any negroes so long as I can :see a white
Radical to shoot, for it is the*Radimls who
will be to blame for bringing on this war.
I assure you, fellow citizens, that I shall
at all times be ready to go forward and as
sist the sheriff or any other officer in carry
ing out the laws of the State, and in order
to assist him thoroughly, I will get as many
of my old soldiers as possible to go with
me. But if they send the black man to
hunt those Confederate soldierS whom they
call Kuklux, then I will say to you,' "Go
out and shoot the Radicals. •
If they do want to inaugurate a civil war
the sooner it comes the better, that we
may know what to do [Applause.] I do
not wish it understood that I am exciting
you to war, for, as I told you before,l have
seen all the war and bloodshed I want. I
wish you to exhaust all honorable means
before you do anything, and I would pre
fer that you would suffer before I should
see a civil war in this country. We have
already lost all but our honor by the last
war, and I must say that, in order to be
men, we must protect our honor at *haz
ards, and we must also protect our wives,
our homes, and our families. [Cheers.]
I wish dictinctly to state that I am not
against the colored man, neither have I
ever been against the colored man. I car
ried forty-five of them into the war with
me, and all but one remained with me du
ring the war. The next time I saw the
one who deserted, he was in the hands of
thquetropolitian police for stealing. [Cheer
and laughter.] I wish you to do nothing
that will give the Radical party airy pretence
to bring on a war. They have got to take
sides with us or the other party. We will
have no neutrals ; all must show what they
are. If they are not for us they are against
us. You have seen war and you know
what it is, and therfore we ought, as I said
before, exhaust all honorable means to pre
vent it coming among us. But if it does
come, I will do all in my power to meet it.
let the consequences be what they may,
[Loud and prolonged cheering.]
I now want to say a few words to the
black men who are here before me, and
what I wish is to ask them to stand by the
man who raised you, who nursed you when
you were sick, and who took care of you
when you were little children. I say, stand
by them who are your friends, and leave
your Loyal Leagues, where you are taught
to refuse the franchise to those who have
always proved your friends. I tell you that
if you will only stand by us that we will al
ways stand by you, and do as much for you
as any white man can do for you. You
can have no interest with any scalawags
and carpet-baggers. [Loud cheers and
laughter.] All they want from you is the
little money you have got. The Northern
people say that these scalawags and carpet
baggers wore thieves and robbers in their
own section of the country. [Applause.]
Then what can you expect from them?
[Applause.]
A voice. General, there are a few South
ern carpet-bagger§ and scalawags also here.
General Forrest. Yes, there are, and I
am ashamed to own it, that they were nur
tured on this soil. They are too low for
me to speak about, and I have no words to
express my contempt forsuch persons. I
NUMBER 6
feel to-day that Governor Brownlow is one
of that class. [Hisses.] He has escaped
to this time because he has been shaking
with sickness and weakness, and is consid
ered crazy, but if he inaugurates civil war
in this State, then I tell him he must suffer
the consequences. [Cheers.]
When the war dosed I surrendered hon
orably, and desire to do my duty to my
country, but I love the soldiers and those
who fought with me during the war. I love
them as I love my own life, and I never in
tend that they shall be shot down so long
as I have an arm to raise in their defence.
[Great cheering.]
Fellow soldiers, we have stood by each
other before, and now I want to know if
you will stand by me and by the other Con
federate generals in what we did a few days
ago at Nashville. [Cries of "We will, we
will," and great cheering.] 'Gentlemen, I
feel I am getting hoarse, as I have lately
,suffered from. a severe cold,- and I fear Iwill
not be able to speak to you much longer.
[Cries of "Go on, General, go on."
Well, I now wish to speak to you a few
minutes about the Democratic Convention
lately held in New York. While I was
present
,at that convention I learned that
some of those who called us their friends
were not in favor of enfranchising the
diets of the South who fought in the late
war. Now, I want to know how that is.
I was taken cheerfully by the hand by the
leading Democrats of the North while I was
in Neiv York, and they showed me the
greatest friendship and displayed the great
est kindness towards me. This is 'the red
-Bon I want to know whether it is true about
the remarks that certain parties that are
against enfranchising the soldiers. One of
that party (Mr. Leftwich) has been nomi
nated here to-day, and I want him to come
forward and state whether he has ever said
that the Southern soldiers should not be en
franchised, or whether he is opposed to giv
ing us all our rights: When I hear him
deny this rumor I stand ready to support
him, but not till then; but without it I can
not do it, and neither can you. [Great
cheering.] I have a letter in my pocket
from Washington, and I am sorry to learn
from it that Mr. Johnson is said to have
gone against. the Democratic party and
against the South, on the ground that we of
the South who were delegates to the con
vention did not press his nomination. I
did press it, and used all my influence with
the Southern delegates—General Hampton
and others—and procured him fifty votes.
We saw, however, that he could not be
nominated, and we had, therefore, to change
after several ballots had taken place. The
others would not continue voting for Mr.
Johnson, and I did not think there was any
hope of a nomination after several ballots
had been cast. Since that time he has sent
me my pardon, for which I am truly thank
ful.
Now, fellow-citizens, I think it is right
for Mr. Leftwich to declare this evening
whether he is in favor of enfranchising the
Southern soldiers or not. I feel it is im
portant that the Southern soldiers should
know whether you have nominated a man
whose sympathies are with those who
fought for the "Lost Cause," and is pre
pared to give us all our rights. [Cheers.]
If he tells you frankly and freely he is,
which I believe he will, then I for one am
willing to send him to Congress. (Cheers,
amid which General Forrest retired.)

Miscellaneous
Brick Pomeroy, during a recent speech
in Watkins, N. Y., facetiously called for
"three cheers for Grant and Colfax." A
dozen Republicans responded, and the
Democrats present, supposing it to be all
orthodox, followed suit. "Brick" cooled
in an instant.
Among the recent accessions to the sup
port of Grant and Colfax is the Hon. Jas.
H. Walton, of Philadelphia, originally of
Stroudsburg. He is one of the old Demo
crats of the State, and besides holding
other offices, was Treasurer of the United
States Mint, at Philadelphia, by appoint
ment of Buchanan, for four years.
From information which has been re
ceived concerning the instructions to Gen.
Sheridan, it is believed that he will within
the next two weeks make such a move
ment against the hostile Indians on the
frontier as to put an end to the apprehen
sions of a general Indian war.
A New Orleans paper says : "The Blair
Guards, on Friday, and the Seymour

according to the political bias of the spec
tator. •
A mass meeting of the Republicans of
Lancaster county was held on September
20th., which was unprecedently large and
enthusiastic. Among the speakers were
Gov. Geary, Gen. Kilpatrick and others.
While the meeting was being held a mob
of several hundred Jeff: Davis and Sey
mour and Blair men attacked with clubs
and stones and beat persons wearing Re
publican insignia. The attack lasted more
than an hour, and a number of persons
were injured.
They have Ladies' ranner Clubs out
west. At Pekin, 111., they turned out in
the Grant and Colfax procession, all dress
ed in appropriate and beautiful uniforms,
and each bearing a lighted Chinese lant
ern. They were regularly officered by
their own sex and led by their own drum
corps, composed of misses in their 'teens,
who handled the sticks like veteran drum
mers. Who says the West is not all right
for the "Tanner boy."
George Wilkes, in the "Spirit of the
Times," makes this proposition We will
name thirty-three States, and bet $l,OOO on
each, in favor of Grant against Seymour,
and then bet $20,000 that we will be win

"Frank Blair's letter is a part of the plat

that can wabble backward and forward
from platform to platform like a sick rat
for toasted cheese. He wrote that letter
for two human reasons. First. He knew
what he meant, and wished the public to
know it, too. Second. He desired a no

get it. He was right, it seems, and no

"I intend to vote. My remedy is to call
out the brickbat brigade. I am ready to
lead them to-night. Let us hang some of
these fellows, burn their books, and have
a good old-fashioned election!"
"Hang some of these fellows," referring
plainly to the officers of registration, and
"burn their books," is the advice which a
gray-headed man, but recently a judge of
the circuit court of Missouri, gives to a
crowd of excitable partisans. Does this
mean anything less than bloody revolu
tion ? Is this not Blair's letter in practi-
cal operation?
We have no comments to make. Radi

and burning. But if Judge Moody begins
it, who will end it ? Not Judge Moody!
