How often does not this reply come from
men, when called cpon to subscribe for a
newspaper! They will spend in the course
of the year, perhaps, ten timet the subscrip
tion price asked, for the most silly, if not
actually injurious purposes. The real truth
is. that it is a want of lore of reading mora
than poverty that prevents people generally
from subscribing; (or newspapers. - As a
general rale, there is more success obtained
in asking a man to take another paper, who
now perhaps takes t xo or three, than there ia
in getting the man to take one who now sub
scribes for none. Every family ought to
lave, at least, too journals ; their connty or
Jacal paper, and one from the city. These
need not cost thern but a trifle over $4.00.

thus an entire gear's reading, (by which a
family gets all the local and general news
of the day, domestic and foreign, reports of
the markets, Sec,) may be reduced to a con
siderably less amount than four dollars and
dwenty cents a year including the postage on

.Taaaliri TUitiar, tbs South.
"Several prominent sooddyitas, from this
-connty, have been "down South," looking
after bargains, in the way of buying lands,
upon which they might speculate at the ex
pense of these poor, down-trodden people
of the South, We have heard of bat few in
stances in which these Northern fanatics
have been successful in purchasing property
of the Southern people. These Northern
sneaks, Abolitionists and tofies, wbo have
-doc all in their power to roio the South.,
are the very ones whom we migkt expect
o go to those people with honeyed words
-and sickly smiles and endeavor to take ad
vantage cf them while in their depressed
and almost destitute condition. Nobody but
an Abolitionist would be guilty of soch
-down-right robbery. They are the enly
set of people who can practice such bold
deception, all tor these objects the filling of
their pockets and the ruination of the South
ern people. The war failed to accomplish
what they intended; or in other word, all
they desired. Slavery fell by the a word, it
is claimed, bet the constitutional rights of
the South, still remain unaltered and ouitn
.palrsd. These Southern people have not
fall the hand of confiscation so heavily as
the radicals would have laid it upon them.
The Abolition radicals would have all
Southern land confiscated, eat tap in farms
for each and every peron who would de
clare that the blacks were better in every
respect than the "poor white trash." This
confiscation" hobby rode well before the
demise of Mr. Liscoln ; and at one time
all the scoundrels and thieves i.i the land
fancied they were proprietors ol fine South
ern plantations, well stocked with freed
men, laboring for about a six-pence per day.
Bat that idea has been completely exploded,
and (hid sharks are necessarily driven into
other channel to fill their storna'ch with
ill-gotten gains. They have plundered and
folen all they can in the North, both from
(ha government and individuals, and qpw
eeak to make common prey of the Sonthern
people by diddling them out of their prop
erly nnder adverse circumstances. This is
one of the I aft dodges of the Abolitionists !
They would stone yon nearly to death, and
on finding that lley couldn't kill yon, would
turn ronnd and offer you, in jour almost dy
ing condition, a penny for your coat. This
is only one ol the beauties ol Abolitionism.
Who wouldn't belong to soch a party !
Wx tiolica in the Wilkesbarre Record that,
it ia the intention to have the election of
Yakleir, over Racb, for Sheriff, contested ;
An the ground, we are led to- iofer, that de

candidate. If Mr. Race's election hangs
upon the disfranchisement of alleged de

' We are decidedly in favor of holding the
Democratic State Convention at a much
earlier day than hat been customary for the
last two or three years past. ' There can be
! nothing lost in opening up the campaign in
good season, with the Democracy thorough
ly aroused and ready for the contest.-
These short campaigns, of six or eight
weeks, will not anawer if we ever expect
to be successful. It is impossible to have
the party folly organized in that abort epace
of time; aod without a Ticket formed and
placed at the head of onr Democratic jour
nals, it is almost useless to attempt to per
fect an organization. We say, hold the
Convention early; give ns a sonnd, judici
ous platform, (not longer than your finger)
with Hon. Hkisteb Clymcb. of Berks, as
our nominee for Governor, and the Dem
ocracy will sweep the Keystone State on
the second Tuesday of October, A. D. 1866.
This can easily be done. Pennsylvania is
Democratic and, properly managed, a ma
jority of the next Congressmen and a Gov
ernor can be elected from out of the ranks
of the stalworth Democracy.
Death of Lord Falmerston.
This Celebrated statesman died on the
18lh ultimo at bis residence in London
Henry John Temple, Third Viscoont Pal
merston, was born in 17S4, and was descen
ded from a younger branch of the Temples
of Stowe, the founder of which was secre
tary to Sir Philip Sidney. He settled in Ire
land in 1609, and the celebrated Sir William
Temple was bis grandson. He was ancle
to the first Lord Palmerston, who wascrea
ted a peer of Ireland, in 1722, with the title
of Baron Temple and Viscount Palmerston.
The late viscount was educated at Harrow,
Edinburgh and Cambridge, graduating at
St. John's College in 1806. He was imme
dia'ely made the candidate of the tories to
represent the university ia the seat made
vacant by the death ol Mr. Pitt; but hs
was defeated by Lord Lacdsdowne. He
was then returned for Beltchingly, and
in 1807 was made a junior lord of the ad
miralty in the lory cabinet of the Duke of
Portland. From that time to ibis, with rare
intervals, he has been prominent in tha
ministry as well as in Parliament. Since
1835 he has been regularly returned as the
member from Tiverton. Lord Palmerston
was a skilful political leader and his loss
will be deeply felt by the country in whose
service be spent a long aod active life.
Ktgro Rebellion in Jamaeia.
Another not very bright spot, to touch
with joy the heart of Abolition treason a
cloud- a nigger insurrection in free Jamaica !
the ruined white man under the knife of the
free negro. The district of St. Thoma,the
most important of that island nnder martial
law ; and the black rebel "Paul Bogle,"
and his devils reveling in blood and horrid
crime nottoe written. The Governor has
offered $2,000 for hia delivery. Troops have
been sent for. Spanish vessels of war have
left for the scene to protect Spanish citiznns,
and to give such aid to the local authorities
as may be necessary to quell the "family
broil." This news was received at St. Jago
de Cuba, the 19th, but did not reach U3 nntil
the 25?n. The Spanish war steamers Santa
Lucia an J Andaluza left St. Jago for Jamaica
on the night tfche 19ih. A happy illustra
tion of the freedom and advance in "civili
zation of the favored rif-a," nnder the most
favorable circumstances, with the benevo
lent tuition of the apostles of Abolition
direct from the sacred precincts of Exeter
HalL
Plymouth Chorcb, and their kindred pest
houses ! Whi'.e men, women, and children,
are butchered by these black wretches, but
Sumner, Phillips, Beecher, Butler, Steven,
Greeley, and the whole Abolition crew, cry
out, "Look at the heaven born Freedmen."
NCGSOKS REALIZING THE BLESSINGS OF FREE
DOM. The Tribune reports 19,000 Blacks in
the District of Columbia, and great personal
distress. Here is a picture ol the sufirings
of these people:
1 The most fiighiful mortality exists, as many
as 80 coffins per week being furnished by the
Quartermaster's Department, most of which are
fur children. It is the opinion .of physicians
practicing among them, and of other close
observers, that tbree-fonhs of these children
die from neglect and want. In the family
of a soldier, who lost his life in battle, five
out of the ten children have died since
March, 1865, from the above causes. In
another, three out of seven children of a
soldier drafted in December last Aous starved
to death within the last three weehV
The Danville Intelligencer came to us last
week printed npon new type, looking bright
and clear. This is one of the oldest and
best local papers on our exchange list, and
is thoroughly Democratic. The presect ed
itor, Capt. Thomas Chalfait, is an able
and fearless expounder of Democratic prin
ciples, and always makes the old Intelligen
cer ring forth the riht kind of doctrine.
Success to him.
The wearing of "Confederate grey" hav
ing been prohibited to the Southern people,
at the close of the war, large amounts of
that kind of cloth accumulated at Richmond.
The Washington Union says that the Loyal
Leaguers of the various Government De
partments are sending to Richmond lor the
rebel grey, which can be bought for seventy-five
cents per yard, wherewith to clotho
their "loyal" limbs.
The Democratic gain in five States ii
about one hundred thousand votes, thin
year. This will do to begin with. Another
one hundred thousand gain next year will
elect a conservative Congress and jlace thn
country "all right."
November 11 has been fixed by the Court
of Common Pleas of Philadelphia for tb
trial of the City Commissioner soldier volo
fraud' case, by which the Democratic can
didate, Msj Weaver, was denied bis certifi
cate of election.

Tims of lectins of the Democratic State
Conrention.
We hlluded some time since, to what we
considered band policy, in postponing the
meeting of the late Democratic Slate conven
tion, from June nntil August, and then sug
gested the idea that the party was more for
tanate when it held its conventions on the
4th of March. This view of the matter
seems to be that entertained by many eth
ers throughout the State, and it is to be
hoped that the proper aothority in the prem
ises will give the subject that due attention
which its importance demands. The Phil
adelphia Age, of the 26:h inst., says:
'Several correspondents some of them
members of the Democratic State Central
Committee urge the return of the Demo
cratic party to ihe old practice of holding
their State Conventions on the 4th of March.
The suggestion is worthy at least of con
sideration. However men may differ as to
the arguments for and against postpone
ment that have been presented from time to
time, it will be conceded that the postpone
ments brought with them no solid advan
tages to the party in the contests which
iollowed. They did not procure greater
harmony and enthusiasm, nor disarm the
bitter opposition of the opponents of Dem
ocratic men and measures, nor stimulate
the masses of the Democracy to increased
zeal -and activity in perfecting an organiza
tion by which voters could be brought to the
polls. None of these results have followed
the nomination, at a late day, of Democratic
candidates. Our own opinion is in favor of
a return to the 4th of March aa the time for
holding State Conventions."
If the Convention is called on the 4th of
March, it will give ample time for organiz
ing the party and presenting and discuss
ing the platform which may be adopted.
There need be no apprehension as to the
result if the people only fully understand
the issue involved in the contest, and no
canvass can be thoroughly and satisfactori
ly carried out in six or eight weeks. It is
idle to talk about it. The idea of a late day
for the Convention and a short campaign
has been tried in the last two State elections,
and the result is known. We do not pre
tend to say that postponing Ihe time for the
meeting of the Convention was the cause ol
the deieat of the Democratic party, bnt
certainly no good was accomplished, while
toe brief a epace was left for the canvass
ing of the State, organization of the party,
distribution of documents, &c. We are
decidedly in favor of holding the Conven
tion on the 4th of March. Pittsburg Post.

Rebellion in the Daman Interior.
Rebellions are not confined to bodies po
litic. They break out in our own interiors
as well as in the "bowels of the land."
The natural law of onr bodies is health,
bnt we misuse them and they revolt. We
subject them to exposure, we overtask
them, we overload the stomach, we neg
lect the bowels, we plunge out of rooms
hotter than the tropics into an atmosphere
below freezing point, and in various other
wavs trifle with onr health.
But these frames of or.rs are wonderful
machine, and we can, by the use of the
PROPER MEANS, so INVIGORATE and
REGULATE them as to render them al
most proof against the ordeals to which, in
our recklessness, we subject ihem.

the wisest course ; but if already an in

An Independent Democratic Daily,

After foor years of civil war, forced npod
the people of these United Slates by the
violence of sectional parties, we now en
ter upon a new era of unity and of prog,
ress. North and South, a oordial co-ope
ration of all honest men is needed to re
pair the waste of war, to establish our
Peace through the triumph of sound con
stitutional principles in the administration
of the government, and our Unity bv guard
ina all that makes Union desirable.
The great Democratic party, "xhose his
tory in the past is the history of private
prosperity,' of territorial extansion, and of
public order in America, stands now, as it
has ever stood, the Parly of ihe Nation,
superior to all sectional passions in its loy
ally lo the rights of co-equal States and to
the liberties cf the individual citizen: Once
more its voice will be heard, once more
its adherents . will be rallied to its time
honored standards in every city and town
of the Northern and Southern State.
To the principles of the great Democratio
Party of ihe Nation, The World has borne
firm witness throughout the ordeal of civil
war. It B-ill now be devoted to tha not
less arduous tavk of applying those prin
ciples to the solution of the many and
weighty questions financial, social, polit
ical which come upon us with the return
of peace. Faithful to the real interests of
all sections, it will be enslaved by the prej
udices and blinded by tha prepossessione
of none.
That the principles of American Democ
racy should thus be uttered, with no weak
or uncertain voice, her in the great metro
politan center of American enterprise aod
commerce, is a matter oi such importance
to every citizen as must recommend The
World to the co-operation and support of
good men in all sections of trie Union.
Whatever skill can devise or enterprise
accomplish will contribute 'o make The
World what it is our resolve that il shall
continue lo be the Best Newspaper of the
Day.

mercial and political center of both hemis
pheres, who are always instructed to make
the freest and promptest use of the tele
graph, will keep our readers full informed
