A Radkal Rebellion Threat-
. ed •
The Radicals are preparing to rebel in
case any of the Southern States are needed
to elect the Democratic candidate. John•
son, the Radical candidate for Attorney I; en.
oral of Missouri, made a at Saline.
in that State, a week ago, in which he said,
repeating the sentiment several times:
"There could and should be but one re.
milt to the election this liill—that licneral
Grant, backed by the army and supported
by the whole Radical party, would prevent,
with the bayonet, the inauguration of a
Democratic administration at Washington,
and that the Radical State Government at
Jefferson would resist and ;tut down in the
Same way any attempt to inaugurate the
Democratic party into power in this State."
Such is the revolutionary and bloody pur
pose of the Radicals. The only way to act•
do them is for the people of the Northern
States to overwhehn them at the polls.—
Conservative Republicans should understand
that if they would prevent the threatened
Radical revolution, the vote for Seymour
and Blair must be made decisive in the
Northern States. Moderate thinking men
of Pennsylvania, is not your duty olear in
the premises?
Free Lecture.
A free lecture will be given in the Pres
byterian Church this (Monday) evening by
Charles Lenox &mond, Mr. Remotas

America, and his education and ability in

Bloomsburg, Augutt 16118.
The above was posted about town on Mon
day last, and printed at Dr. John's offitv.
Night came, but the "bcst colored orator"
did not• The Radicals wore greatly disap
pointed in not having the promised and in
sured "intellectual treat." Thu great r ,
ored Demosthenes is traveling the country
in the interest of the Radical party. The
Grunt and Grab•tax party have enlisted all
the intelligence there is in the African race
to aid in the election of their Presidential
candidates. It has not been disputed that
the Radical party favor amalgamation, negro
suffrage, and negro equality, therefore it is
not strange that they should have negrees
out stumpiugethe sate. It only goes to
prove that Mr. (Row is ha/ d up fur speak.
ors—that reputable white men will not en
gage in the business of stumping for this
corrupt party and their sinking cause.
Tim Demoeraq of Sullivan county have
appointed Conl'erees for Hon. OEOn/ix D.
JACKSON for Congress. BENJ.tmiN V.
RHOADS, Esq., is a candidate in 'Montour
county, and Col. V. E. PP - Aurr is a candi
date in Bradford, making three already in
the field. Mereur ought to be beaten sure ;
if one can't do it, three should be able to
defeat him. The Radicals are a good deal
frightened in this District already. We
bear of "good Republicans" almost every
day, who will not vote the Radical ticket
this fall. With a good nomination we can
carry this Congressional District. The pros.
poets tor success to the Democratic nominee
for Congress in this black District never
looked more nattering than they do at the
present time.
DCRINU the past Week we have wet a
number of persons who voted against us
last fall, who declare that henceforth they
must vas the Democratic ticket. They
say that the affiliation of the bloodstained
Southern negroes with Northern Abolition
politicians iu the Chicago Convention—the
enthusiastic reception of the would-be intel
ligent blacks of that party—the new civil
war hinted at by the leading f►ieuds of
Grant and Colfax, are all public events that
attract the attention of every careful and in-
Wiligent voter of the country.

The Philadelphia Mutaint/ ( Rad.) bays:
"We should not care for the tgleel'lTS of the

Would not result in the triumph of impar

Hero is so honest admission of a Radical
editor. Negro suffrage, all over the coon

Voters, how do you Ake this? Will you
give your influence and rotes to secure ne
gro supremacy? Aro you willing to wake a

not, vote for Seymour and Blair.

Greeley Howling al ' , icy MOUE.
The New Yolk Tritium , opposes Horatio
Seymour with extreme bitterness. This is
not to be wondered at. (;,coley was an
original seeessiunist, whilst Seymour was no
original Union man. 1% hen the original
secessionists or the South were endeavoring
to work up the Southern people to the
point of rebellion, I; reeky assisted them by
declaring that they had a right to secede.
Seymour took the opposite view, holding
that no State eould secede from the Union.
And when at length the South, encouraged
by Greeley and others of the same kidney,
made the attempt to go out, tiny. Seymour
sent the legions of New York to the battle
field equipped in a manner that put to
shame the shoddy equipments furnished by
the Radical State authorities of Pennsyl
vania.
t;ree.ley appalled by the rnion sentiment
that displayed itself in the North, and
especially in the great Pemocmtie city of
New York, abandoned the advocacy of the
secession cause and bawled awhile on the
Union side. But his heart was not in it,
and when reverses overtook the Federal
arms, he tried to aid his Southern eo•work
era in the secession eause by advocating
peace on any terms. He even went so far
as to hold a curare:leo with Jake Thomp
son and others at Niagara Falls, but the
Rebels ingq there, like honorable men,
have refrained from makiug known any
treasonable propositions or suggestions he
may have communicated to them, so that
the full measure of his guilt is not known
to the public. When the tide turned h i
thvor of the Federal arms, ho bawled for
the Union again ; but he has never forgiven
Seymour Pm bafflinq his attempts to help
the SJuthern secessionists to get out of the
I:Mon. Let the old traitor howl on.
FoItNEV KNIKIRSES SEVMOUR.—Iii June
of Istl3, when Pennsylvania was invaded,
Governor Seymour so promptly sent all the
forms at his command to our aid, that (icy.
crnor Curtin publicly thanked him in a
speech, and Forney thus landed him in the
Avis, which is now so loud in its abuse of
him. Said Forney :
'Heuer to New York ! 11cr Governor
has acted like a man who knows when the
time for partisanship is at an end. 11cr
gallant SOMA is now at Ilarrisburg, and,
side by side with our brave Pennsylvanians,
preparing to resist the invaders. This is
the true spirit of brotherly love. Ilut while
the City of New York is doing so touch to
save our State, what is the City of Phila
delphia doing ? '
Can't the /Wm find room f►r the republi
cation of the above extract? It would be
remembered by many of its readers.
MERE is a clerical typographical error in
the Democratic platform, which does not
appear to have been heretofore notiml. It
is in the Sth Resolution, which declares
against "the almoluie doctrine of immuta
ble allcgianm," which should read: "0/49-
lac doctrine of immutable allegiance ;" a
very wide difference certainly. This clause
is expressive of the sentiment of the Dem
ocratic party, opposed to the European doc
trine, "once a citizen always a citizen." It
was intended to declare that the naturalized
citizen was entitled to all t h e rights and pro
tection abroad to which a native born citizen
was ; and hence the correction is an im
portant one. We invite the attention of
our cotemporaries to the correction and sug
gest that. they give it in their columns.

If the Radicals mean to economize, why

Thos, it will be seen, the figures show
that during the nine years of Radical rule,
and making our State laws, has cost the
people upwards of One Jlilliun, O n , Hun

than it did during the mne years preceding
the accession of Radicalism topower, or at
an
average rate of about One hundred end

more than under Democratic rule. Tin, ex
poises of the last Legislature also show that
the tendency is to inerease instead of dimin
ish. Compare the cost of the last Radical
Legislature with that of the last one in
which the Democrats had a majorit3 in both
Houses, and we have the following exhibit :

The reader must not commit the error of
supposing that the above tables show the
sums of all the appropriations for each year.
Theme figures cover only the cost per head
of the members, clerks and attaches of each
Legislature. The appropriations made by
them fix other purposes, amount to many
millions, and arc not here taken into the ac
count at all. In order to make the matter
dearer, let the above sums hi divided into
133, the whole 11111Hher of Fenators and
Representatives. and the cost of each mem
ber to the State will be ascertained. Thus,
a member of the Democratic Leg;slature of
1558, with his proi , ortion of the incidental
ex p enses li dded to his salary, cost the State
f-. 1.296, whilst a member of the Radical
Legislature of 1568, with his proportion of
the incidental expenses added to his salary,
cost $.2„631! 11 ith the different,: between
gold and greenbacks added to the cost of
the Democrat, it would bring it up to only
51,825 or $80; less than that of the Radi
cal. showing that 133 members of the Had.
ical I.egislature cost $107,198 more per an
num than the 133 members of' the beam.,eratic Legislature, even upon an equaliza
tion of time currency of 1869 with that of

Concerning the character of the lower de

"The 'Post' is the initiatory degree in
this order, awl here the rite of initiation is
very 'limply. In order to delude those who
have been in the service of the United
States into joining them, the statement is
made that the G. A. it. is not of a political
character, and that its object is only to pro
mote the interests of those who were in the
army. But upon initiation the novice is
obliged to vote for a soldier as against a
civilian, mikes otherwise instructed by the
order, which means that in case a Radical
civilian is a candidate fur office against a
Demovratie soldier, the order will instruct
its members to vote for the civilian. Thus
the 'Post' is used as a political machine, and
as it is under the control or the Supreme
Commandery, this subordinate brauch is
subject to military duty under the orders of
the Supreme Commander. This, however,

WE believe the Radicals still hold Mr.
Lincoln's notions in high esteem. Under
the impression that they would not doubt
anything ho said, we commend to their
notice the following opinion he held in ref
erence to " carpet-baggers." On Novem
ber 21, 15412, he thus wrote to General
Shepley, at New Orleans "To sends par
cel of Northern men here as Representa
tives, elected, as would be understood (and
perhaps really so) at the point of the bayo
net, would he disgracrial and otaragroa*.
and were I a member of Congress hate,
would vote against admitting any such 111110
to a scat."
ANDF.RNONVIT,T.F.—(IeneraI Grant wrote
to Butler, when the exchange of prisoners
was going on with the full approval of the
rebels:
" Send no more men in exchange for our
sick prisoners in the enemy's hands. Every
man released becomes an active soldier
against us. if we commence a system of
exchange we will have to fight on till the
whole South is exterminated. It is hard on
our men in Southern prisons, but is human•
ity to those left in our ranks to fight our
battles."
That thaw+ who was responsible for the
horrors of Andersonville.
It appears, from recent revelations made
in Baltimore, that Butler's depredations
were not confined to New Orleans. The
beast is now charged with having stolen a
dozen bottles of brandy from a private side
board, and a silver caddy from a lady, and
appropriated to himself the orphan's fund
of the city of Norfolk. Butler beats Robert
Macnire, the French thief, all to finders ;
and Mercury, who has all along been wor
shipped as " the god of thieves," will have
to look sharp after his divine honors, or
11(11110 day ho will find himself dethroned,
and the American beast reigning in ids

From Wales
On Thursday afternoon a train of cars
from Holyhead, containing the passengers
and mails from Ireland, which was proceed
tug toward Liverpool at the usual rate of
speed, met with an accident at the little town
of Abergelc, in the county of Denbigh,
North Wales. A long train of loaded pe
troleum trucks had just been switched off
on the aiding to make way for the Irish
mail, but the switchman had neglected to
replace the switch. A collision was the
consequence. Seven persons, all passengers
in the Irish mail train. were killed outright
and many others badly injured. The oars
in both trains were reduced to a shapeless
mass. The concussion produced an explo

Huth front our presenee torn
A tender brother kind and dear,
Whose loss we dearly mourn.
Just in the flower and bloom of youth,
The morning of his day,
Like snow beneath the vernal sun,
Our blether pasted away.
Like fruit that falls beli - tre its time,
Or flower cut down at noon,
He withered by death's blightuing breath
And sank into the tomb.
But why should we lament his death ;
He has left a world of strife,
And though we miss our brother dear,
He has gained eternal life.
