Shall 0id Centre go Radical in
November!
N,O old Centre must go Domocra-
ie on the 3rd of November next, and
| too, by a larger majority than
recent election. Democrats,
at me
the rads are now boasting they will
carry the county, and what say you?
will you remain at home, and let the
presidential contest go by default? No
we know that vou will not permit our
good old county to be thus disgraced,
and have her stand among the galaxy
of negro-worshipping radical ceunties.
To work, then, Democrats, and show
these destroyers of your country and
these publie plunderers, that old Cen-
her true to the old landmarks. Bring
guarantee an increased Demoeratic
majority.
ed
The Election.
The result of the late election in
thisState is against the Democracy —
the majority against our party is very
small-—somewhere between 5000 and
10,000 in a poll of 600,000. The
emocratic vote is larger than ever
before, and had there been no colon-
izing of voters by the radicals in their
strongholds, the Democracy would
liave carried Pennsylvania by 15,000.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars are
known to have been spent by the radi-
cals in the purchase of votes, and thou-
sands of fraudulent votes polled for
the radical ticket. In Philadelphia
cratic citizans were denied a vote by
the radical managers, and yet the
Democracy carried the city !
Democratsof Centre, there is nothing
to discourage us; our party has made
a proud record for itself, and will
eventually triumph. Pick your flints
and at them again in November. If
ber, let us resolve to make them fight
for it. Cheer up men, and get ready.
Bring the whole vote out for Seymour
and Blair—in November the elections

nor Seymour aad certain members of
the National Democratie
Committee, in relation to some impor-
Iixecutive

tant measures to be adopted in the pres-
ent canvass. Daring the conference,
Govenor Sevimour alluded to the sug-
gestions made in certain quarters as to
‘a change in the Presidential ticket, and
said that any change which should be

made must include

wishes,
if any other nama were substituted foe
his own.
The committea replied that no
change had been contemplated by any

nothing could be so “injurious tothe
Democratic cause as a change of ean-
didates, and they refused to entertain
the question.

vember. The majority in this State
for the Republicansis a very small one.
' The vote polled in this State is consid-
erably over six hundred thousand,
while the Republican majority «is less
. than nine thousand. hen at the next
election it only requires us to change
two Republican votes in every hundred,
to make a difference of twelve thou-
sand in the result, and give Seymour
the State by three thousand majority.
Inthe State of Indiana the majority
for the Republicans is only about one
thousand ; a change there of one vote
in two hundred will give that State to
Sevinour. It is avery remarkable fact
than the election of a President of the
| United States depends upon less than
six thousand voters, in Pennsylvania
and Indiana. In this State, we have
only, to pick upcourage, and we can
carry the State, and save the country
from negro supremacy and military
| despotism in the South, and from bank-
