As this Is the last issue of the Journal -before the election, we will address a few words to our Republican friends throughout the county.' The present political contest is a highly important one, and may decide whether we shall have peace and prosperity in the future, or not. Although we have defeated the rebels upon the battle-field.yet they arc potent enough if united with their old allies of the North, the Copperheads, to endanger the permanency of the Union, should the control of the Government fall into their hands. In view of this fact, it behooves the friends of free institutions to stand firm by their principles to be active, energetic, vigilant, from now to the elec tion, and use every effort to have every Union voter at the polls on next Tuesday. If our friends in this county, as well as throughout the State, will do their whole duty, a most glorious victory will be the re sult, and Gen. Geary will be triumphantly elected by an overwhelming majority. Then we say once more, go to work now and nev er cease in your efforts until the polls shall have closed on the second Tuesday of Oc tober. DON'T BE DECEIVED. Our enemies are working day and night with a view of defeating some of the Re publican candidates for Congress, for, after all, in this is centered every hope they have of restoring the Rebels to power, and of getting the control of the Federal Govern ment into their own hands again. To ac complish this, they are resorting to every species of falsehood, deception and fraud. Lies of the most infamous character will be freely circulated on the day of election ; the prejudices of individuals will be appealed to ; and the impression is forcing iu-elf up on the public mind that voters are being imported from other States. This shows the importance of vigilance and activity on the part of our Republican triends every where. Let them be up and doing. See to it that every man is at his post that not a voter is absent from the polls on the day of election. Desperate as the enemy may be. we feel that a sure and glorious victory is in store for us on the second Tuesday of Octo ber, it we only do our duty. THE GAME OF BEAG. The Democratic leaders have been busy, .daring the past week, circulating among the faithful, a report to the effect that they had ."a big thing" on hand which would de feat General Geary by a large majority, This is the old game of "brag," to which they used to resort, in former times, on the eve of elections. Having abandoned it for some years they concluded to try-it this fall, with a view of stirring up their dishearten ed followers and getting them to turn out on the day of election. Further than this it will amount to. nothing, for we can as sure our friends that, from every section of the State, the most cheering accounts reach us of the prospects of Gen. Geary and the t various Republican nominees for Congress. . THE BOUNTY FALSEHOOD. ' The Copperheads are still busily engaged in circulating the falsehoood that white sol diers are paid but $100 bounty, while the negro soldier gets $300. We have frequent ly, in private conversations, asked them to produce the official record to substantiate their assertions, and thus far they have fail ed to do so. Whenever yon hear the same assertion made, it is only necessary to ask foe the official record to expose this flimsy falsehood. .: ? - TO THE POLLS!! Friends of the Union, remember that next Tuesday is the day of election. Go to the polls early, stay all day, and see that ev ery friend of liberty deposits his ballot for Geary, Soofield, M'Kay, and the whole Re publican ticket Let not a vote be lost The greater the vote, the greater the victory. . THE ISSUE. The friends of Gen. Geary favor" the Constitutional amendment, because it guar antees to all citizens by law the right of life, liberty and property, and thereby legal ly abolishing and forever prohibiting slavery in the Union. The friends of Clymcr are opposed to the amendment, and therefore deny citizens the right to be protected in life, liberty and property and favor the revival of slavery in the Union. , The friends of Gen. Geary favor the Con stitutional amendment,because it makes the voting population the basis of representa tion, thereby preventing the negroes from being represented in Congress by traitors. The friends of Clymcr are opposed to the amendment, and therefore favor negroes be ing represented in Congress by the rebels who fought to destroy the Union. The friends of Gen. Geary favor the Con stitutional amendment, because it prevents perjured rebels from holding office under the National Government, unless by a vote of two-thirds of Congress. The friends of Clymer are opposed to the amendment, and therefore favor perjured rebels holding the National offices, unre stricted. The friends of Gen. Geary favor the Con stitutional amendment, because it acknowl edges the validity of the National debt, in cluding the pensions and bounties to our sol diers. ...... .-. The frieuds of Clymer are opposed .to the amendment, and therefore are in favor of repudiating all our National obligations. The friends of Gen. Geary favor the Con stitutional amendment, because it declares the rebel debts as illegal and void and shall never be assumed or paid by the National Government or any State. The friends of Clymer are opposed to the amendment, and therefore arc in favor of paying the rebel debts by the labor of. the North. Such is the issue before the people for de cision. Freemen of Clearfield county, and of Pennsylvania, are you in favor of the Constitutional amendment, or are j'ou oppo sed to it ? If you favor its adoption vote for Gen. Geary ; 'if opposed to it, vote for Clymer. The issue is a plain one ; and with you rests the responsibility of deciding for or against your own interests. Which will you do ? Answer at the ballot-box on Tues day. - - TO AEMS, SOLDIEES ! Glorious Boys in Blus ! You who fought the armed foe on the bloody field of battle you who defeated the rebel hordes of J eff. Davis, Lee and Johnson, when they attempt ed to destroy the Government of our Revo lutionary fathers you who 6aved the old flag from disgrace and defeat we appeal to you to turn out on the day of election and aid in defeating at the polls an enemy who would restore the Rebels to power, and place in their hands the future control of the Government 1 This is the true issue now before the people this is the question now to be decided by your ballots on the 9th day of October and we fee! confident you will do your full share to have it determined in the richt way. We know vou will vote as you fought. No true soldier of the Re public will do otherwise. A VILE SLANDEE. The Copperhead leaders, of Clearfield, are busily engaged in circulating a story that Capt. Hutchison, one of the speakers at the Republican meeting on Wednesday evening lat, "was never at the front, that he was only in the three month's service." This is a vile slander. Capt Hutchison was not only in the three months service, but enlist ed as a Lieutenant in Co. C, 49th P. V. for three years, and was promoted to a Cap taincy for gallant services in action. These facts can be substantiated by several mem bers of his company, who now belong to the Soldiers' Geary Club in this place, if neces sary. AN ADMISSION. Notwithstanding the unfavorableness of the weather, the Republican procession is admitted, by Democrats, to have exceeded their demonstration on Tuesday. One of the leaders said, in a very emphatic manner, as the Republican procession entered town, "Although the Democrats number nearly '.'two to one in this county,yet the Republi 'cans always beat us two to one in a proces "sion" a compliment highly appreciated by us, although not intended for our ears. ; DON'T TEADE VOTES. As heretofore stated, there will be an ef fort made on the part of the Copperheads to trade votes. That is, they will vote for Geary if Republicans will vote tor Scott, for Congress. Don't do it! They know they can't elect Clymer, but hope by tra ding votes to defeat Scofield. Again we say, don t trade votes, but deposit a full Republican ballot. Soldiers ! Stand Back. Among the new Philadelphia Appoint ments was the name of Colonel W. A. Gray, the only soldier in the list, and he a meritorious one. The slate, at the last mo ment, was' changed, by taking off Colonel Gray's name, and putting on Mr. Snowden's an old incumbent in the mint under Buchan an. The soldiers have to stand back fnr such as they under Copperhead rule. THE EEPUBLICAN MEETING. '. Pursuant to previous notice, the Union men of Clearfield county met in Mass Con vention at the Court House, in Clearfield borough, on Wednesday evening, September 26th, 1S66. : The day was very unpropitious rain hav ing fallen up to 2 o'clock, p. m. But, not withstanding the unfavorable condition of the weather, a goodly number of persons came to town during the day, and, towards evening, a delegation from Curwensville, and points above, arrived, which, in addi tion to a few vehicles hastily gathered up, entered town in procession amidst the wav ing of flags and the ' enlivening strains of martial music,and cheers. The procession, along its line of march, was ever and anon greeted with cheers and the waving of hand kerchiefs by the ladies. In the procession were 35 vehicles containing 265 persons.and 90 men on horse-back. With few excep tions, the procession was made up of voters, a large proportion of them soldiers. In the evening, and just pieceeding the opening of the meeting, the "boys in blue" turned out and formed a torch-light proces sion ; and headed by an excellent band of martial music, and amidst the light of their blazing torches, marched through our streets, presenting, truly, a magnificent ap pearance. All honors are due to these sur viving heroes and defenders of the Union. After having passed along our principal streets, they entered the Court House, and soon every available position in the capacious room was crowded to overflowing. Tho hour for opening the meeting having arrived, it was called to order by D. Faust, Esq., the Chairman of the Republican coun ty Committee, who announced the following list of officers, which, upon motion, was unanimously adopted : President, II. B. Swoope, Esq : Vice Presidents, Capt. J. II. Heasley, James Glenn, L. W. Weld, Capt D. Mc Gaughey, Jacob Mock, Edw. W. Graham, Edw. McGarvey, Alex. Murray, John Bar moy, S. B. Lingle, J. A. Caldwell, Daniel Graham, John Tyler, J. W. T. Hollopeter, J. B. Martin, Zack Bailey, J ohn Dale, and R. J. Shaffner. ' 1 Secretaries, J ames F. Ross, Win. A. Nel son, Osburn Heel, Jacob Birgfi, Capt J. L. Rex, and S. J. Row. Upon taking the chair, Mr. Swoope, in a few brief remarks, stated tfce object of the meeting, and then introduced the Hon. Glcnni W. Scofield, our member of Con gress, who, was welcomed by three hearty cheers from the immense audience. - I Mr. Scofield then addressed tho people present upon me political issues or the day, m a very dignified and respectful manner using no harsh epithets or immoderate expressions against his political opponents. He discuss ed the Constitutional amendment at some length, and clearly demonstrated its justness and moderation towards Southern rebels, and the effect it would have upon the fu ture statu of Congress, in that it made the voting population the bpsis of representa tion. His remarks were explicit, well-timed and to the point, and made a favorable im pression upon all who heard them ; and. we doubt not, will have the effect to dispel much of the false impression that has been created against Mr. Scofield, by his political opponents, in this county. During his re marks he was frequently interrupted with enthusiastic applause. Capt Hutchison, of Bellefonte, was then introduced. His remarks were more es pecially addressed to his fellow soldiers largo numbers of whom were present from I all parts of the county. His points, in re ference to the political issues now before the country, were well taken, clear and pointed. He demonstrated plainly who were the true friends of the soldiers, and urged them to support Gen. Geary for Gov ernor, as he is worthy of their votes. Mr. H., is a young man of more than ordinary ability, and a fluent and pleasant speaker. His remarks were received with great ap plause by the audience. Hon. II. Souther, of Ridgway, was the next speaker introduced. He entertained the audience in his usual able and felicitous style, for a short time ; and was applauded to the echo, ever and anon, as he illustrated the political status of the Copperhead party now and during the war. On account of the lateness of the hour, Mr. Souther's re marks were brief, yet pungent and explicit. II. B. Swoope, Esq;, being loudly called for by the audience, rose and made a few brief remarks the people cheering vocifer ously as he"photographed"f ome of the lead ers of the Copperhead party in this county. Mr. Swoope, although urgently solicited, declined making any extended remarks, on account of the lateress of the hour, but pro posed three cheers for Geary, Scofield, and the whole Republican ticket, which were heartily given ; after which the meeting ad journed. No doubt, this meeting had a good ten dency, and will produce its results on the second Tuesday of October. Bat for the inclemency of the weather, the demonstra tion on Wednesday would have been the most imposing of any that ever occurred in this county. The Adjutant General of the State of Tex as has declared that he is ready at a mo ment's notice to march five thousand men to aid any movement "to drive the damn Yan kees (the regular army) from that State." My policy Texas swinging round the circle. ? THE COP MEETING." '. The Democracy assembled in Mass Meet ing, in Clearfield, on Tuesday evening. Sept ' 25th, as per previous notice. This being , Court week, and the weather very pleasant, a Targe number of person were present Their procession, however, was rather a sliui affair a failure. It consisted of 36 vehicles of various descriptions, containing 217 men and boys, the latter being largely in excess, and 40 horsemen. In fact, we believe, there were not 100 voters in the procession. The meeting was called to order by G. B. Goodlander, the Chairman of the County Committee, after which T. J. McCullough, introduced Hon. Cj rus L. Pershing, of Cambria county. Mr. Pershing is rather a pleasant speaker, but. it was with difficulty he could be understood any distance from the stand, on account of the rapidity with which he spoke. His re marks were received with some slight mani festations of applause especially on "swing ing around the circle" on to the "nigger." Next came Mr. Scott, the candidate of the "amalgamation" or "fusionist" party. He spoke but very few words merely re minding the audience that he was tired, that he had traveled all night, and that he was a candidate for Congress after which "exhausting" effort he subsided in his for mer position on the stand having forgotten to ''swing around the circle" to the "nig ger," ;; Then, a Mr. Marshall, from Erie, we be lieve, was indroduced. His remarks had reference, more especially to what occurred in South America and Hayti during the last several centuries. But, after having ex hausted the entire ancient history of the above named Republics, he succeeded in "swinging around the circle" on to the in evitable "nigger," and then gave way to the next speaker. At this juncture, T. J. McCullough ad vanced to the front part of the stage and commenced some remarks. Being at some distance from the stand at the moment, we are unable to give the subject of his remarks at the opening; but his gesticulations were "tremendjus." , When we got within hear ing distance he was just "swinging around the circle" where the "nigger" comes in, and soon he retired from the front of the stage. - . - Now came Father Test. This venerable individual opened in his usual dignified, self-important, and positive style, and then, rolling his eyes upward like a dying kitten, suddenly' began telling an anecdote, which had the effect of producing some laughter and applause. But he soon "swung around the circle" on to the "nigger" a id retreated. Lastly, Dr. Boyer, was trotted out, and began a harrangue to the audience in his old style, but he, too, soon "swung around the circle" on to the "nigger," and after demolishing that table "indoowiddooal muchly," be retreated from tho scene of carnage, to the scene of conviviality. In fact, all the speakers seemed to labor under some hallucination and hence the "nigger" was the only object that was pre sented to their view. Poor souls, how they are worked into spasms over the African. Wherever they go, the sable form of Sambo rises before them as a dreadful and terrify ing spectre. If walking the streets, they seem to be fearful of Sambo encroaching up on the white man's rights. If sitting at the table they eat with a rapidity that is sure to contract dyspepsia lest some colored in dividual might enter and claim the honor of dining with them. When they lay down at night they are haunted in their dreams by forms of a negro President, negro Congress, negro Governor, and the whole African race riding in golden chariots with white men for footmen. Yea, whether sleeping or waking, sitting or walking, lying or Standing, the black man is ever present, and they stare about with glaring eye balls, and in frantic tones continually exclaim, "nigger!" "nigger!! "nigger!!!" Poor Cops ! we really pity them. Some ignis fatuus, in the form of Sambo, has set tled in the "marshy grounds" which over tops their shoulders, and they imagine that "negro suffrage" and "negro equality" are the issues involved in the present po litical contest But the intelligent portion of the people of Pennsylvania know better, and hence are not in the least frightend by the silly cries of "nigger" by these pretend ed advocates of white men's rights. The real issue now before the people is: Shall Loyal men, or Rebels rule this coun try ? Loyal men saved the Union from de struction by rebels, and the people have de termined that loyal men only shall rule the affairs of State. FALL Styles of Bonnets and Hats juttreceiv ed MRS.
