That the Southern Rebels and Northern Copperheads are working in unison, and contemplate the murder of another President is becoming more apparent every day. The j Mobile Tribune of a late date says : "The signs of the times are pregnant with resistance to Radical tyranny and the dagger of Hrittu mar aid in accomplishing our re pation." In addressing the Seymour club in Clear field, last week, one of the speakers raid ; "If Gen. Grant is elected President he will be swept from office as was the lament ed Liucoln. That is all fixed." Oh, yes! "That is all fixed!" Grant must be murdered if he is elected! Wheth er this valiant Clearfielder is to be the assas sin Booth No. 2 has not, as yet, been as certained. But, no matter who is to com mit the horrible and bloody deed, it has been decreed by a Southern Rebel and a Northern Copperhead that Grant must "be "6wept from office as was the lamented "Lincoln." Honest, law-abiding, peace loving Democrats,will you permit voursclves to be again gulled by these men who boldly proclaim that rebellion and murder is their object? We think not! We have more faith in your intelligence and patriotism, than to suppose you will connive at, or encourage them in their hellish designs! Then, we entreat you before it is too late, spurn these desperate and vile men Trom you, and cast your votes at the coming elec tions for Hartranft and Campbell, Grant and Colfax, the friends of the Union, as the ' only hope of preserving the country aud maintaining the peace. Is Grant a Drunkard ? A portion of the Democratic press, the Philadelphia Age among the number, never fails to insinuate that General Grunt is an intemperate man when it believes it can do him personal and political injury by the in sinuation. To show how false these accusa tions really are, we quote from Democratic authority. George W. Woodward, Demo cratic Congressman from the Xllth district, re-nominated for re-election, in a speech in Gre.it Beud, Susquehanna county, a fort night ago, said : "It is said that General Grant is intem perate. I know the charge to be false. My intimate social and military association with him through nearly all of his campaigns, leads me as an honest man, to declare that the worthy chieftain is not only iunocent of this unjust charge, but that he is in every respect temperate, and ia all the walks of life a gentleman." We hope this will satisfy the vituperative portion of the Democratic press. Bishop Simpson some time since made a similar defence of Grant, so that we now have prominent men in both parties who declare on proof of their own observation, that he la no drunkard. Democratic Lore for Soldier. The following statement of Mr. G. A. Curtis, which was handed us for publication, speaks for itself : On Saturday last (Sept 14th) I went to Osceola to find work. I went to Mr John Lawshe, and asked him for work. He ask ed my politics. I told him I was a Repub lican, had fought under Grant, lost a leg in the Wilderness, but was stout and able to work at any kind of hard work. He said be did not want me, nor any other man who did not tote as he did, and went against his interest. I m now working tor Mr. Jacob Mock, ii Philipsburg, and will swear to the above facts if any person doubts my word. . G. A. Curtis. Comment is unnecessary. Allegheny eoauty promise, over leas, majori ty for the Repnblican State ticket. That will do. The Debt Oce-ronrth Paid. The New York Tribune, of Thursday last has the following in regard to the public debt, which is a perfect refutation of the statements of the leaders of the Seymour repudiationists : .'It lias been usual to state the reduction ot our public debt at $250,000,000, that be ing the amount by which the ascertained debt liquidate ! at the Treasury by the i-sue of botids or other securities has been reduc ed. We have been cartful to couple tbU statement with the fact that, beside this re duction of the ascertained debt, we have paid about $500,000,tKW in back pay, boun ties, overdue contracts, transportation, and other expenses of closing up the war. These were really incurred and due in Aug., 1S65, and should be added to the amount of the ascertained debt of that date, in order to arrive at the maximum amount of the debt and the total sum by which it has been reduced. Mr. Edward Atkinson, in a speech delivered yesterday, at Worcester, before the Republican Convention of Massachu setts, presents the actual facts in their true light, showing that the actual indebtedness, liquidated and unliquidated, was on August? 1, 1S65, $3,287,"o3,320; that it was on June 30, 1S0S, $2,485,000,000 being an actual reduction of $802,733,329 in the principal of the debt. By the same rapidi ty of payment wecould pay off the entire debt within ten years. The figures are as follows : The total amount of revenue received by the Government for the three years frtm April -1, 1SG5, to June 30, 1868, has been $I,54U,053.5$3. Oat of this there were paid for back pay of the Army aud Navy and war contracts, within fifteen months after the close of the rebel lion, $774,865,851. And there were paid for bounties, pensions, prize money, reim bursing States for war expenditures, claims of loyal men, Freedmen's Hureau, expenses of Reconstruction, and National Cemeteries, $145,912,401. These two sums amount to a total sum to be added to the National Debt, as it stood on the books of the Treas ury April 1, 1805, of $920,773,252. The ascertained debt was $2,306,955,077, mak ing the aggregate of $3,287,733,329, as above stated. We have, therefore, actually reduced our debt by $802,733,329. We can now arrive at the ordinary expens es of the Government, exclusive of war ex penditure. Income 3 years $1,540,058,533, War Debt 802,733,329 War Int. paid 438,484,SS3 1,241,218,212, Ordinary eqpenses $293,840,371 or a little less than $92,000,000 a year in currency, or $65,000,000 in gold, while the expenses of James Buchanan's last year w..;re $76,841,000 in gold.or about $11,000,- 000 in gold more than those of the Govern ment during the past three years. Hand these facts and figures to your Democratic brother who thinks the National Debt can not be paid and must be repudiated. The Coffee-Pot at Work. On reading the charge made by the editor f K V-'J ' ' " : l:.. , sue, that the Republicans of Vermont "were compelled to import 10,000 voters "from Massachusetts, New Hampshire and "New Yerk" to carry that State, we felt satisfied that the leaders and managers of the so-called Democratic party were engag ed in some rascally scheme to defeat the will of the people in Pennsylvania; yet we had no idea that our convictions would be verified so soon. But we have been some what disappointed in regard to the latter point in our surmises, for we were informed several days ago, upon the best of authority that already a number of fraudulent natur alization papers have be.-n distributed in a certain locality in this county, by the Dem ocracy, to be used at the Oetober election proving the old adage true, that "a thief always cries thief!" the loudest to deceive the public in regard to his own guilt. That the managers of the so-called Democratic party contemplated all along rej eating their villainous game of 1867, of stuffing the ballot-boxes with illegal votes, only on a more extensive scale, was manifest from their opposition to, and their success in hav ing the Supreme Court to set aside the Registry Law passed by the last Legislature of this btate and hence we find them al ready engaged in distributing forged natur alization papers and packing the severa' election districts in this Couuty with import ed illegal voters. A more despicable scheme than this, to bolster up a rotten cause and to make some show ot party strength, was never conceiv ed by any set ot men, and is alone worthv the sympathizers with the rebels and trai tors of the Souh in their efforts to destroy the Union, and shows that the managers of the Democratic party have no confidence in their legitimate stiength, and having lost all hope ot electing their candidates, they now intend to uifke an effort to reduce the Republican majority in Pennsylvania by fraud and rasca hry. Our friends everywhere must be on the a!ert for these "eoffee-colored" fraudulent naturalization papers, and imported illegal voters. By being vigilant in this respect. jn rau iu a great, measure prevent tneir intended frauds upon the ballot-box, and preserve the laws of your country intact. Where They Stand. In Nebraska all the young men of spirit and enterprise are found iu the ranks ot the Union Rapti Hew party. The Demo cratic journals of that State seek to account tor the fact by saying that the Republican party is one of fuss and feathers, parade ana snow. e suppose the youug men, who have had the spirit tosettle down in new homes out west, are animated by the same tcelings which fill the hearts of those in our own commonwealth, and necessarily find themselves arrayed on the side of right against wrong. Nine-tenths of the intelli gent young men of America who will cast their virgin votes at the forthcoming Presi dential campaign, are found standing under the banner and leadership of the Great Cap tain.and Democratic papers need not strive to drive then, away from the ranks of the I nion. by any such derisive appellations as 'vo,in infants,, and "tiundkbedders. Read the new advertisements. "THE DEIFT OF THE TIDE," There seems to be no abatement in "the drift of the tide." Unrelaxingly it sweeps on with resistless force in the direction of Grant and Colfax, much to the consterna tion of Wallace, Seymour & Co. And as we intend "to fight it out on this line," we continue our list of examples: Fifty-two voters atDes Moines, Iowa, who have heretofore been Democrats, have re pudiated Seymour and Blair, and declared their intention to vote lor Grant and Colfax. John R. Marke, Esq., of Nelsonville, Athens countv, Ohio, a soldier of the war of 1812, will vote the Republican ticket foH the first time at the coming October elec tion. Mr. S. Taylor Suit, to whom the Demo cratic nomination tor Congress in the Filth Maryland district was tendered, has declin ed to be a candidate, and will support Grant and Colfax. One hundred Jews, in Chicago, who were Democrats up to the nomination of Seymour and Blair by the New York Convention, have come out for Grant and Coll'ax.tand joined the "Tanners" clubs in Chicago. Robert, son of the late Stephen A. Doug las, delivered his maiden political speech at Raliegh, N. C, a few days since, in behalf of Grant and Colfax. The Douglass Dem ocrats can't and won't swallow the Copper head ticket. Here is another loyal volunteer against the new Democratic rebellion. Hon. Tims J. Turner, of Freeport, 111., who was the last Democratic candidate for Congress aeainst E. B. Washburne, has publicly avowed his intention to work and vote for Grant and Colfax. Hon. Wm. II. Wadsworth, formerly a member of Congress from the Maysville (Kentucky) district, and a supporter ot Mc Clellan, has taken the stump for Grant and Colfax. Mr. Wadsworth is a very impor tant and influential accession, and will do a yeoman's service in the ranks of Republi canism in Kentucky. The Pittsburg Commercial says: It is reported on indisputable authority that the Presidents of two important Railroads con necting at Pitisburgh, who have heretofore acted with the Democratic party, have re cently expressed their intention to support Grant, whose election they deem necessary to the peace of the country. The ground swell goes on. Hon. John M. Harlan, of Louisville, late ly Attorney General of Kentucky,a McClel lan Democrat in 1864,a Colonel in the Union army, and one of the most effective public speakers in Kentucky, has taken ground in favor of Grant and Colfax. His accession to the Republican party in Kentucky is not less important than that of Hon. Wm. H. Wadsworth. The "tide" seems to have set in in good earnest even in the Rebel State of Kentucky. Senator Fowler, of Tennessee, who was on of thf. seven Senators who voted to ac quit President Johnson, and whose position in politics has been very doubtful, and who has not been min ed as of the Republican party ever since the impeachment trial, has finally taken the stump for Grant and Col fax, aud boldly declaring, after viewing the situation in Tennessee, that the election of Grant and Colfax is essential in order to pre serve peace and unity throughout the land. Thomas B. Clark, of Red Bank, 3Ion- tnouth county, New Jersey, a veteran Jack- sou Democrat, has written a le.ter under date of August 1st, 1SC8, in which he says. Gen. Grant is a Jackson Democrat, and so am I. lie can stamp Ins loot on W ade Hampton, as Jackson did on Calhoun. A still tongue makes a wise head. The hand that writes this voted lor Gen. Jackson at his last term. Now the hero's ashes in the grave would be ashamed of the party that call themselves Democrats. .No trifling with men's souls that have laid down their lives for us." That noble soldier, Major General George II. Thomas, in his letter to the Republican mass meeting in Indianapolis writes "Your very cordial invitation command my sincere thanks ; and though I take no part in politics, permit me to express the great pleasure 1 have derived trom observ ing the nrin and almost universal support offered by the soldiers and sailors through out the country to all measures calculated to restore it to a condition of peace and ouiet. thereby showing that those most willing to support the Government in times of peril can be relied upon to inaugurate aud main tain measures best calculated to maintain th peace and prosperity of the nation." Col. W. II. n. Taylor, of Brooklyn. Hen nepin county, Minn., an old and Ufa-long Democrat, has come out for Grant and Col lax. At a Republican meeting in that town a few evenings since, in an earnest and elo quent speech, he urged upon all the neces sity of supporting the Republican party du ring the present campaign. He says Seymour and Blair are too much for him. He can not support such men. The Colonel served with distinction during the late war as Col- ! c . I. C : i i. t w r i tt . unci vi iuc riiiu ruio cavalry, tie nas been a resident of Hennepin county since last fall. He is a gentleman of culture and ability and will be quite an addition to the party. Hon. A. P. Dudley, of Calvaros, Califor nia, on the 12th of August made a speech at a Republican meeting in Sacramento iu which he said : "I have been a voter for twenty-eight years. By my bald head you see I have grown gray in the service ot my country,and 1 have never but once failed to vote with th Democratic party. I once had the honor of being a Presidential elector in my district on the Breckinridge ticket. Since the war has been over 1 have tried to get on quietly with the Democratic partj. and I stum ped the State for Haigbt last year. I talked War Democracy, but now the issues are fairly made between Grant and Coltax on the one part, and Seymour and B'air and their plat form on the other. The living issue to-day is this : Was the war to put down the rebel lion right or wrong? In the old State of New Hampshire; that was when this old hat was new (pointing to his bald pate) she had always 25,000 majoriry for the Democrats since then she has gone Republican by an overwhelming majority so I am not the on ly renegade Democrat of my native State." A large and enthusiastic Republican meet ing vas held in front of the residence of Charles McLain, Esq., in Middletown, Pa., on Saturday, Sept. 5th. Mr. McLain has always been a Democrat and will vote the straight Republican ticket for the first time this falL The Telegraph says : The Grant and Colfax Ciub proceeded to Mr. McLain's residence, headed by the Middletown drum corps, and as they marched past the Demo crat headquarters, nearly onehundred voters, formerly Democrats, fell into line, having just left the Democratic pow wow in disgust, and came over in a body to the support or Grant aud Colfax. Our formerly Democrat ic friends who thus came to the support and swelled the Republican procession, said "that the Democracy had gone so far as to cry i othing but 'nigger ! nigger! nigeer! and 'repudiation ! repudiation ! repudia tion!' with now and then a cut at the sol diers,wLich they could stand no longer, and therefore left the Denocratic club-room in a body." to cast in their lot with the true friends of the nation. At this rate, allace will have to issue a wiit of qvo warranto (by order of the Democratic State Commit tee,) "to inquire by what warrant" his here tofore "faithful' followers have become so "aroused" as to desert the sinking ship of Seymour, B!air,Forest & Co., rn the eve of the October election, lest they be unable to call the previous question in November, for want of followers. A Little of Everything. Democratic platform repudiation, rebellion and povtrty. Republican platform national honor, peace and prosperity. The election excitement is on the increase all over the country. Grounds for Republican complaint Centre county cofiee-gronnds. Colorado shows which way the wind is blowing in the Rocky Mountain region. Fennsylvania will give Ilartranftand Campbell twenty thousand majority in October. New Mexico joins hand with Vermontand Col orado, and elects a Republican Legislature. A temperance meeting will be held in the Court House, on Monday evening, September 23th. LCarpet-baggers" have made their appearance in this place. We saw several leave town on Monday last. Mr Clark Wilson, formerly of this place, has been appointed a whisky guager for the 23d Penn'a district. The Republicans will carry Philadelphia by four thousand majority at the October election. So we are assured. The spirit of improvement continues. Judge Shaw has just commenced another building, to be occupied as a drug store. A writ of habeas corpus on behalf of the as sassination conspirators at the Tortngas haa been denied by the V. S. District court of Florida. Gen. Grant says: "This is a Republic, where the will of the people i the law of tbe land. I be that their voice may be heard." It shall be. Uoratio Seymour is receiving watermelons from his friends.

There will be more enlistments on the other side if all the -Roys in Blue" vote as they fought Tbe Boston Pot, referring to the Vermont election, says, ' the Dutch are all the time behind the dyne! there." We reckon the Dutch will be found -behind the Dykes" almost everywhere this year. Straws tell which way tbe wind blows. So say the Democracy. That was a wbo'e stacs: of it which blew irom Vermont, and it's not a good place for straw, either. How do yon like Ver mont straw ? A well-informed and prominent Repnblican in the town ol Pelbain, Westchester county, reports large accessions to tbe Republican ranks in that town, lie reports that they will j.ive double the vote of last year. Tbe acting Attorney-General has decided that claims of southern people, for compensation for the seizure and use of their premises during the war by our uiilita-y authorities, cannot under tbe present laws be allowed. John llickman, the fearless Democrat who led in the great revolt of 18o8 against tbe a ave pow er, aud contributed so effdouvely to all its subse quent defeats, has taken the stump for Grant and Coltax in Chester eouaty. Among the names of Democrats who have been chosen to officer the forthcoming Seymour aud Blair torchlight procession in tbis city, are those of several kuown thieves. Proof ready in the District-Attorney's office. Tribuue. A resolution has been offered in tbe Georgia State Senate declaring that all offices filled by ne groes are now vacant, and directing tbe Governor to refuse commissions to all persons cf coior that have been or may be elected to any office. Sam'i W. Leffingwel), esq , late of the Lebanon (Ohio) Patriot, and Gen Vanderveer, both prom inent Democrats, have repudiated Vallundigbatn tbe former giving up his connection with tbe Patriot because of Vallandigham's nomination. There is otu Democrat in Goshen, Addison co., Vermont. He was on the doubtful list tbis year, but, at tbe request of a Republican, finally voted I-for Edwards, saying. ' I guess I'll do so this time, but all b 1 can't keep me from voting for Grant and Colfax in November." The Democratic party demand equal protection for naturalized and native born citizens, ihe party is supreme in Texasand in some parishes or Louisiana. Those who would like a taste of the kind of protection they give to cither class, had better spend a month in those parts. Southern Democratic papers, as well as their Northern brothers are alarmed at th speeches of Hampton and his tribe. The Charleston Conrttr says. ' thiuL the trmh but speak it softly." It can't be done, gentlemen. You've shown the dag ger in your sleeve and yon can't recall the picture. "Amnesty for all past polities! offences." say the Democrats. Were the crushing out of the re bellion and the reconstruction of the ITnion on the basis of universal freedom and equal rights, political offences ? II so, why not grant an am nesty to tbe Republican party, and cease reviling them fortbeir acis. The Copperhead press has been circulating a story that Robert F. Lincoln, son of the Martyred Presdent.u for Seymour and Blair. Mr. Liucoln writes to a friend at Racine, Wis., and sat s "I bad heard such a rumor, but gave it no attention, thiucing it deserved none, but in reply to your letter I will say that there is no truth whatever in the paragraph. Although not now taking an active part in the political campaign, I feel rare that there is no one who more earnestly desires the success of Gen. Grant and tha Republican party than myse'f."

Judge Black, in his recent speech at l'ork gives us a good idea of a modern Peuio cratic patriot. He says : "Rather than see General Grant elected President, with the undersandingthat he is to administer the (overniiient on the Lon gressional plau of disregarding all constitu onal obligations, it would be far better to let him or somebody else be proclaimed ab solute di-tator. and abolish the Constitution at once.
