Repudiation.
"To this complexion it must come at last," 1
that the Democratic party will pronounce in
favor of repudiation. Anxious as some of
. the better uien in its ranks may be to prevent
so disastrous and iniquitous a policy, it will
bo forced upon them. The La Crosse Dem
ocrat, now the most popular Copperhead
organ in the country, eays, "the financial
problem is too big a thing to be handled ex
cept in one way the whole debt has got to
be sponged out." And this is the doctrine
that will be forced upon the party in its
National - Convention, and which will form
one of the principal planks in the platform
to which its candidate will be pledged, wheth
er that candidate be Hancock or Pendleton.
What say the creditors of the Government
to such policy ? ; What answer will the com
rades of those gallant men who laid down
their lives for the honor and perpetuity of
that Government, relying on its plighted
faith that their widows and orphans should
receive its fostering care and be assured of
maintenance and support, make to a propo
sition that sweeps away every vestige of na
tional faith, credit, and honor, .making the
Government alike bankrupt in all ?
It is not strange that tho men who refused
to give "a man or a dollar" to carry on the
war should advocate the repudiation of the
national debt They have everything to
gain and nothing to lose. Having given no
money, they can lose none by "sponging out
the, debt." Having given no sons and
brothers, they have no widows and orphans
who will be deprived of support by 'spong
ing out thd debt.' Having felt no shame
wken their leaders and friends robbed the
Treasury, stole the arms, and plunged the
country into war, they would not be likely
to feel any, if when their friends were again
placed in power, they robbed the widow and
the fatherless, and betrayed the plighted
faith of the nation. Having stood calmly
by and seen the flag of their country trailed
in the dust, without so much as lifting a
hand in its defence even apologizing for
their "misguided southern friends" they
can feel no anxiety to interpose either hand
or voice to preserve the national honor, or
prevent the Government from being held
Tip before the civilized world as an object of
scorn and derision, ,to go down into history,
after all its glorious achievements, covered
with eternal infamy and disgrace.
Election Frauds in New Orleans.
Under Hancock's rule in New Orleans, a
system of utmgeous frauds was devised by
which the city government and judicial offi
ces have been placed in the hands of the
rebels. The swindling was wholesale worse
than the Wallace fraud at Phflipsburg and
the outrages that were perpetrated at differ
ent places in the State, were without a par
allel in the history of auy civilized country.
Capt Keating, of Shreveport, was tied on
a horse's back, in imitation of Mazeppa and
the horse turned loose. In St. Martin's
parish, freedmen were marched up to the
ballot-box, and forced to vote against the
Constitution with loaded pistols pointed at
their heads. In St. Bernards they seized
tho ballot-boxes and changed all the tickets.
Hundreds of men were driven from the
polls to keep them from voting the Repub
lican ticket. Yet, in spite of it all, the State
gave 20,000 Repu&icaa majority.
It is manifest, that North and South ev
erywhere throughout the country the Cop
perhead aad Rebel leaders are resorting to
the most shameful frauds to carry their can
didates. They stop at nothing bribery,
perjury, fraud, murder all are justified in
Ku Klux ethic, it the result is the success
of the Democratic ticket. It'is time high
time that the order-loving people of the
land should rise in their might and crush
out forever an organization, that feeds on
crime, revels in squalor, ignorance, and ini
quity.and uses as fit instruments to consum
mate its purposes, all that is base, and low
and infamous in humanity.
. . . Contested Election Case.
A contested election case is being exam
ined in New London, Ct. The testimony
shows that ten or twelve men voted in New
London, some of whom were residents of
neighboring towns, one of New Jersey, two
of Rhode Island, and one of Grenport, L.
.1, and one who had not taken out his first
naturalization papers. That's the way
"Democratic gains" are made. It is always
the same old story. Ignorance.whiskey and,
fraud, are the elements of every Democrat
. ic victory.
Hawaii, one of the Sandwich Islaads,has
been the scene of a frightful volcanic erup
' tioo. A whole town was entirely destroyed.
Seward ought to purchase it immediately.
Elections.
In Pottsville, on May 4th the borough
election resulted in a triumph for the Re
publicans. M. B. Bell was chosen chief
burgess by a large majority.
In Kittanning, Armstrong Couuty, the
election was held on May 4th, and the whole
Republican ticket elected by thirty majori
ty. The borough hiis always been Demo
cratic heretofore.
The municipal election of Chanibersburg
on Monday May 4th, resulted in the triumph
of the entire Republican ticket.
The borough electiou in Uniontown on
Monday May 4lh, resulted in a Republican
triumph by an increased majority over the
election of last spring. This being the
home of the Hon. C. E. Boyle, the Dem
ocratic candidate for Auditor General, the
Democracy used every endeavor to -elect
their ticket so that another "re-action"
might be crowed over. But the Republi
cans stood to their guns, and elected their
ticket by majorities ranging from twenty to
thirty, an increase of nearly twenty per
cent, over last year.
The election held in Lebanon for Borough
officers, on Friday last, resulted in a splen
did Republican victory. The Republicans
elected chief burgess, assistant burgess, and
eight councilmen.
At the charter elections, in Nevada City,
Grass Valley, and Stockton, on May 7th.
the Republican ticket was successful.
Florida falls into line on the return march
of States into the Union. The election in
that State last week resulted in the ratifica
tion of the new Constitution and the elec
tion of the Republican candidates for State
offices, a Republican Congressman and a
Republican Legislatnre.
The Doctrine of the Great Organ.
The spirit that rules a large portion, if
not a majority, of the members of the Dem
ocratic party is revealed in the following
atrocious editorial paragraph, copied from
the La Crosse (Wis.) Democrat, of April
15th :
"Do you blame us when we say that God
was just in sending John Wilkes Booth on
that dark Goodiriday night, three years
ago,the darkest and gloomiest in American
history, to strike the traitor down, and lib
erate the white freemen of America from
the yoke of a despot.' God is just He
struck the tyrant Lincoln from existence at
an hour when the country could no longer
bear the burden of him ; and God, in His
Wisdom, cannot let the free rjeonle of Am
erica, whom he has so protected and Dros-
pered, long remain chafing under the rule of
any despot.
What shall be said of a political party
which, whatever may be its professions,
gathers to its standard the creatures whose
sentiments are reflected in such language as
this? ..
Just the Difference.
The Chicago Tribune states the distinc
tion between the Republican and Democrat
ic tickets in Illinois a distinction which re
lates to the two parties. It is as follows :
In addition to General Palmer, the Con
vention selected and nominated from the
ranks of the soldiers of Illinois. Gen. Charles
E. Lippincott for Auditor, General G. M.-
Lates lor .treasurer, and General John A.
Logan for -Congressman at large. While
one of these men General Bates was ly
ing in prison at Andersonvillc, starving for
food and undergoing martyrdom from his
undressed wounds, and his colleagues were
at the front, fighting I'm- their country, John
R. Eden and Bill O'Brien, and others on
the Demoerutic ticket, were at Louie mak
ing speeches asainst any further "offensive"
prosecution of the war, which they declared
was a failure. The two parties now pres

Soldier's State Committee.
General James A. Beaver.of Centre conn
ty, Chairman of the State Convention of
Soldiers which assembled on the 8 th of Jan
uary last, has appointed a committee to take
active part in the State and National elec
tions this fall. The chairman is General
n. T. Collis, of Philadelphia. Col. A. M.
Smith is the member from this County. Tne
committee will meet at the rooms of the
National Union Club, No. 1103 Chestnut
street, Philadelphia.on the 4th day of July
next, at eleven o'clock, A. M.
The Ku Klux Klan.
Six Ku Klux Klaners went to a house in
Colleoks,' Tenn., carried off a man named
Littleton Lincoln.shot him through the head
and threw his body into a cave, two miles
from the town. These outrages, which make
the Southern country more dangeroui than
Italy in the palmiest days of anarchy, will
probably continue until Mr. Johnson iroes
back to Tennessee. His presence there, or
rather Ben. Wade's presence, in the White
House, will probably put a stop to them.

Church in the United States convened in
the lurst Lutheran Church of Ilarrisburir.
on Thursday May 7th. About three hun
dred ministers and layman were in atten

very large uumber of citizens. The G
al Synod is looked upon as the American
branch of the Lutheran family, and is char
acterized its liberality in nonessentials,
confining its members to no prescribed form
ot worship, but allowed each congregation
to manage its affairs in such a manner as
will be most conducive to its interests, spir

twenty-one Synods are fully represented bv
clergy men and lay delegates, viz : Allegheny,

address to the Democracy to get all the offi-

would depend whether they could carry the
State this fall for President. The Republi

A Clevelander and the Ku Kluxes.
Alvah A. Richardson, son of a well known
lumber merchant ot Cleveland, visited Mid
dle Tennessee, last month, for the purpose
ot investing in cedar lands, and cutting and
shipping the timber. He purchased a large
body of land, and employed a number of
black men to get out the timber.hiritigthem
at five dollars per month less than the
whites were willing to work for. His lands
were six or seven miles out of Shelbyville,
and he-was compelled to put up at the only
public house in the latter place, which was
kept by a well known rebel named Colonel
lilackwell. On Wednesday, April 22d, he
rode out several miles with a negro guide,
for the purpose of selecting timber to ut.
and was met on a cross road by two men,
mounted and armed. The black guide on
seeing these men and knowing their blood
thirsty purpose, piloted Richardson at once
toward the pike, but they had not proceed
ed a mile when they encountered half a
dozed disguised men on horseback. The
negro fled to the woods, leaving Richard
son to his fate. One of the party approach
ed him and asked him where he was from.
He replied "from Canada." To this they
answered "you're the man we're after."
Richardson knew that he was now in power
of the desperadoes, and turnsd his horse to
escape. Several shots were fired after him,
but he succeeded in getting out of their
reach unhurt. While descending a steep
hill his horse fell and was disabled, and he
was badly cut and bruised. A party of ne
groes near by at work carried him off and
secreted him in the brush, and after he had
recovered somewhat they conducted him to
Shelbyville. His wounds had hardly been
dressed when an anonymous note was hand
ed him, dated "Chamber of Death,''. and
giving him from then till the next train left
to leave Tennessee. Only an hour remain
ed, and as his business could not be settled
in that time, and as he felt that he ought
to be safe from outrage in that place,he
concluded to stay. His friends, however,
fearing an attack on the house that night,
persuaded him to leave, and he did so, al
though scarcely able to travel The men
who sought his life were members of the
Kn Klux Klan, and his only offense consist
ed in hiring black instead of white labor.
The Klan claims to be thirty thousand strong
in Tennessee, and its members boast that
they will ere long work out a terrible re
venge for the followers of the Lost Cause.
Such is the character of the Southern allies
of the Northern Democracy !
Abuse of the Pardoning Power.
A case has just been developed in Phila
delphia, which shows the utter recklessness
with which pardons are granted by the Pres
ident. Arthur Mullen had been convicted
of illicit distilling, and sentenced to pay a
fine of eight hundred dollars, or in default
to undergo an imprisonment of- eight
months. This was about four months ago.
He refused to pay the fine, and was com
mitted. He at once applied to the Presi
dent for pardon. The "clemency" was not
extended him as speedily as he expected.
and he paid bis nne and was released. J udge
of his surprise, a day or two ago, on receiv
ing a pardon, setting forth, among other rea
sons why executive grace was vouchsafed,
that "he had been in prison four months.
and was already sufficiently punished!"
The fact was, he bad been but a very short
time in prison, and his having comDlied with
the sentence by paying the fine left the
President nothing to pardon l With such
reckless abuse of the pardoning towe
which amounts to offering a premium for
fraud and corruption, i3 it to be wondered
at that the revenue is yearly defrauded out
ot millions ot dollars 7 Commercial.
