The Philadelphia Press of August lSth
says that "at Harrisburg, the capital town
of our Commonwealth, in a leading Demo
cratic drinking saloon, frequented by the
chiefs of that party, hang in handsome
frames the portraits of Jefferson Davis, 11.
K. Lee, Beauregard, Buckner, Bragg, and, j
to crown all, of Wilkes Booth. This is in
no cut-throat hole, but a room where the
gentlemen and leaders of the local Demo
cracy meet for social and business inter
course.
It Id almost impossible to conceive
ot any more studied insult or affront to the
people of Pennsylvania. In Kentucky and
Tennessee thousands of graves are filled
with Pennsylvauians shot down by the im
pressed soldiers of these very men, Bragg

Andersonville and Libby, and Booth is a

to speak of such matters as these or to nar -
rate such incidents, but it is becoming cv-
ery hour more and more a duty. From all
parts ot the country the evidence thickens
that the leaders of the "lost cause" are the
adopted wards of the Democracy.
Not

The Germans and Grant.
Throughout the whole land the Germans
are vigorously at work for Grant and Colfax.
In New York city the vote will be very

Germans resembles that which gave Lin j

The Eebel Way.
The Seymour and Blair men in Texas,
as in all the Southern States, have adopted
a rather "MotW Jniode to swell the "Demo
cratic" rants, and deplete the Republican,
as while seen by the following extract from a
a letter from Jefferson county, in that State.
"The mob of Ku KIuxrs go the rounds
every night. The morning question now is.
"What did the Ku Kluxers do last night ?"
Thev visted a shop, last evening and killed
i.ne negro beut another one almost to
death, The charge against the negroes was
tliac they would not abandon the Jyal
League and join the Democratic club. The
negroes are badly frightened, not knowing
which of them will 1 e called upon next and
killed. The nioh of Ku Klux is com posed
chiefly of boys about town. It is understood
I who they are.
Another letter from the same locality,
j b nd of a subsequent date, says:
j ''The killing goes bravely on. Last night
1 two white men were kiiledal the same place
where the negroes were killed the night be-
fore. There can be no doubt that the stime
party is doing it all. They can be identified.
but those who know them are afraid to test
ify. Everybody knows who are the guilty
party, and yet not . ling is done. They feel Riverhead, Long Island, has run np the col- ; ,,roved most in-spiriting ; while the de
zenswhTiiae TheAispush-pres;.;onamongthe rank3 of tllC pa,riots

men who have declined to join the l'eino
cratic Ciub. This has much to do with en
couraging the young drinking ami reckless
men every r;ight in squads of eight er ten,
armed to the teeth, on horseback. They
have sworn to have certain ones. Things
are terrible here, and getting worse. Every
one asks in the morning. "'Who was killed
last night?" '"How many ?"
Now, what can be said for a cause, or for
the candidate of a party, that has to rely on
murder as the means to give it strength?
Surely the peace loving people of the coun
try will not sanction such outrages by elect
ing Seymour and Jilair.
Something for the Farmer.
The Democratic raid against the farmers,
w hich under the pretense of equal taxation,
advocates the assessment of lands at their
full value, and their liability to an equal
share ot the public burthens, is very clearly
declared in the N.w York Platform. Yal-
landigham of Ohio, who was a leading spirit
in that National Convention, is now a can
didate for Congress is his own district. To
niake this idea still more clear, if possible,
he submitted some resolutions to a Demo-
! eratic Convention at Dayton, a few days
since, and the same were adopted, one of
them reading as follows :

At the meeting of the First Ward Grant

voted any other ticket ; but he could not

Mr. E. H. Cumniings, a Chicago Demo

in which he tells him plainly that, although
always a Democrat, and his father before

And then says :
"The only question now is whether the
northern voters will, at the coming election,
be induced to cast their votes for the pur
pose of reinstating in office and power that

which is the ,Sith who only a few years
ago through treason and treachery, defeated

Historical Parallels.
The spirit that actuates the enemies of
any people, no matter how remote the oc
casions for its manifestation, possesses a
sameness truely remarkable. No country
furnishes better evidence of this truth thin
our own. Along the highway of its history,
and especially where the deepest cuts have
been made through conservative barriers,
may be seen the same inimical strata. Their
edges are rough and unsightly, but tuey
finish to the student valuable lessons, and
their very prominence makes them impres.s-
warning posts lor me lutu.e.
Seareeh- hail a svstem of finance been
propounded during the Revolutionary war,
when it was seized Ly the enemies of the
colonies as one of the weakest points. The
onset was not less furious than that made
by British bayonets. However ardent the
desire of the tories to co-operate with the
enemy, active armed service was withheld.
But when the tactics were originated which
looked to the subversion of the s. stem which
paid, fed, and clothed our armies, afield
was opened for the successful exercise of
tory hate. They ente red it unhesitatingly,
and the aid rendered the troops of England
was more damaging to the cause ot noeriy
than a series of defeats in a campaign. The
manner of attack was a systematic deprecia
tion of the currency provided by the then
existing authorities. The prominence and
wealth of the tories, assisted by the counsel
they received from officers of the English
army, made of them enemies against whom
heroism could feebly contend. How
much hope the British drew from this
source of attack may be inferred from a
letter written by which Washington in No
vember, 1779, in tvhieh hesays : " 7 he enemy
are in great hopes of terminating the tear
in their favor in another canijaigu,anthcy cx
pect coiifiilently the entire ruin if our money,
and a failure of provisions for the supply of
the army."
In the following month he again wrote :
"I find our prospects are infinitely worse
than they have been at any period of the
war, and unless some expedient can' be in
stantly adopted a dissolution of the army,
for the want of subsistence, is unavoidable."
The arts of the enemies were plied with the
utmost assiduity, and no one can doubt that
two of the seven years of war must be credi
ted to hopes based upon the bankruptcy of
the struggling patriot.
Recall now the manoeuvres of the rebels
during the rebellion, and those of their co
adjutors, the Democrats of the North. At
the time when our national currency was
resolved upon, the opposition to the meas
ure by that party was most frantic. To sub
vert it was a settled purpose. They lac-ked
the manly qualities which should have car
ried them into the ranks of the rebel army,
just as the tories of the Revolution did,
but they did not hesitate to undermine the
only system of credit then available to se
cure for our soldiers their pay, clothing, and
shape their fiendish ingenuity could devise.
With every onslaught made upon the na
tional credit the rebel hopes revived, and
days and weeks were added to the war.
Every refusal to contract in that currency
sent a battalion of "Boys in Blue" to their
graves. The lilies of bankruptcy in the
-ortn aid more to sustain the armies of r
j l,eIion than all the issues- of Confedera
t-,, , ,
Knp' hey adlied two -vears to the dur
.North did more to sustain the armies of re-
rate
ra
tion of the war, and one hundred and fifty
thousand lives o the holocaust lor freedom.
They increased our debt two billions of dol
lars. With that increase we must measure
the results of Dtmociatic enmity to the
means taken by the country to preserve her
existence ; for that enmity was but the re
ciprocal of the inspiration rebels drew irom
it.
The parallel between the tories of the
Revolution and the Democratic party of the
present is complete in this respect. Their
action, arose from the same motive, and
were directed t.) the same end the assist
ance of the enemy Ly insidious attacks upon
the credit of Government.
And these modern tories have not ceased
their malignant opposition to the national
faith. They have flowed it through all
its mutations, from its inception to the pres-

the beU. A, their armies were assured of
success by a speedy collapse in Norther
finances, SO now thev are emboldener! t. n
new attack by the h pe of repudiation or
probable assumption of their war debt. The
nation's laws and the nation's honor stand
not in their way. These violated in the
acts of secession and war by Southern Dem
ocrats, and were equally violated by North
ern Democrats in the efforts they made to
bring on earl financial ruin. The Repub
can party has from them no retraction of
their crime, no promise on their part not to
repeat it. Hence the necessity of constant
ly guarding the. approaches to repudiation
agaiut such nien. It is a duty the people
owe to themselves no less than to their
country,and itgrows more imperative as the
campaign progresses ; for no design of the
Democratic party has thus far been made
more prominent than that which aims at
the total subversion of our securities.
Then, the only gurrantee the people have
that the credit ot the government and the
integrity of onr national obligations will be
maintained, is in the election of Grant and
Colfax. Let all remember these facts.
Grant draws twenty-two thousand dollars

This is the first result of free labor. Others will
come in time
"Oursoldiers run well this year," was the sneer
ing remark made by Seymour, after a series of
reverses in 1S62. On which the Newburg Soitr
nal comments: "They will -run' well this year,
too, and are already afier his nimble excellency
'with a sharp stick ' "
Vallandigham is repudiated by the honest, U-nion-loving
Democracy of hisdistrict. Gen. Van
deveer and hundreds of others have promptly re
pudiated the traitor, and announce their intentioa
t "vote as they shot" against rebels in every
guise, now and hereafter tor all time to come
We are glad to learn, as we do from our Demo
cratic exchanges that "the Democrats have Open
ed the campaign with a-i." It shows a be
coming resignation to their fate. It is a good
plan. loo. to make a will, though we are a little cu
rious to know what upon earth they have to devise.
Were evidence wanting of the weakness and
thoroughly unpatriotic stand of the Democratic
party, it would be found in the fact that they are
uniformly choosing their leaders from among the
prisoners of war taxen by the boys in blue from
IS61 to 1865. and now held by the nation on parole.
There were two kinds of war Democrats enga
ged in the late rebellion those who. with Gen
Dix.said and acted, "If any man hauls down the
American flag, shoot him on the spot," and those
who, with Se mines. Wade Hampton and Buckner,
would shoot anybody who would Hot haul it
down. The first class now work for Grant and
Colfax, and the last for Seymour and Blair.
Said a friend of Gen. Grant to him at Galena,
few days ago : "It is outrageous. General, that
some of these vile Copperhead journals traduce
you so scandalously." "Oh," said the General.
adon't let that annoy you. It don't me in the
least. It doefs'teven excite 'a feeling of indigna
tion in me. It is their vocation. I wouldn't re
strain them ill could. lean Hand U if they can."
