VW"Pennsylretnia and Ohio Elections for
Rote, District and County °liars, Tuesday,
(ktobcr 13th, 1868.
REMEMBER OCTOBER!
It should be understood by every Demo-
crat in Pennsylvania, that this State is the
battle-ground of the present political contest.
It • should be understood, furthermore, that
the great decisive battle will be fought on the
thirteenth of October next. If that battle be
won by the Democracy,nothing on earth can
prevent our success in November.
LATE AND APPROACHING ELEC
TIONS.
The election in Montana Territory, held
on the 3d of August, was purely local in its
character, although the canvass was conduct
ed mainly upon national issues. The result
is a Democratic majority of about 9,500, and
decisive Democratic gains in all the counties.
The Democracy carried every county ex
cept one in the Territory, notwithstanding
the fact that there was a falling off in the
vote of about one-third. An election was
Jo Li in Llahri Territory for a member of
Congress, and , resulted, as in Montana, in a
decided Democratic victory, Judge Shaffer,
our candidate, being successful by about five
handled majority. The campaign was close
ly contested, the Radicals especially strain
ing every energy to AN in the day.
The election in 'Vermont, on Tuesday, be
isg the first the Radicals have won of any
importance during the year, is hailed by
them with great delight, and seems to be ac
cepted by theta as a certain harbinger of
victory iu November. How much basis they
have for their joy may be understood when
it is known that in 1864 Lincoln had 29,099
majority in the State, which has been over
whelmingly opposition for thirty years at
least. The vote this year is heavily In
creased, and yet the Tribune only places the
Radical majority at 27,000,•whi1e the World
estimates it at 25,000, showing in either case
a considerable Democratic gain. Vermont
is the last State in the Union that Democrats
would 'expect to hear anything cheering
from, and they have seldom considered it
worth contesting. If either side has rea
son to feel encouraged over the late election,
it is certainly not the Radicals, who have
lost at least two thousand and probably more
of their majority since 1964.
Before the great and decisive struggle of
November, elections for State officers and
members of Congress will be held in the
States of Maine, lowa, Indiana, Ohio, West
Virginia, and Pennsylvania. These elections
are of unusual importance, as indicating
what will be the decision of the nation in the
Presidential contest.
Maine ' - 'otes on 3londay, Sept. 14. An ac
tive canvass is going on there. Both parties
arc well organized. lowa, Indiana, Ohio,
and Pennsylvania hold their elections on
the same day, Tuesday, Oct. 13, and West
Virginia on Thursday, Oct. 22.
The State elections held so far, this year,
have resulted as follows :.

GEN. BLAIR.
In looking over the official proceedings of
the Thirty-Seventh ,Congress, we have dis
covered the motion made by Mr.
John Hickman, of this State, at that time
one of the briLdit and shining lights of the
Opposition in that body. It will be remem
'tiered that there was a hot contest over ;the
Speakership during that session, and quite a
number of names were balloted, for before a
selection was secured :
"Mr. Speaker : I beg leave to nominate for
the Speakership of this Rouse, General Fran
cis P. Blair, of Missouri, a gentleman who
has inaugurated a war policy in that State
which has elicited the enthusiastic approba
tion of every loyal American citizen."
He received forty votes on the first ballot,
Mid then withdrew his name. Among those
who voted for him we find the names of
John A. Bingham, of Ohio; Roscoe Conk
ling, of New York, now United States Sen
ator ; Kelley, of Pennsylvania ; Lovejoy, of
; 'Sherman, of Ohio, and Schuyler
Colfax, - of Indiana. Then General Blair was
such an able, upright, honest, good man that
he was in their estimation the proper per
son to be the Speaker of the House of Rep
resentatives. Now these very same Radicals
cannot find words sufficiently hitter to abuse
this same General Blair. But the General
lives, Moves, has his being, and is growing
In popularity with the masses every day,
notwithstanding the slanders of Jtis former
friends and admirers.
A•MODEL sirs?.
That representative Rudical paper, the Al
bany Evening Journal, in a leading editorial
on "The Death of Mr. Stevens," discourses
as follows
"Politically and mOrrilly,Mr. Stevens was a
striking illustration of his own theory of per
sonal right and individual independence, He
did not often attend public worship. Having
separated a handsome mulatto woman from
her husband, he deemed it his duty to pro
vide for her; and their relations were such
as to almost entirely exclude him from other
female•society—a (act which never scented to
give him the slightest concern. lie was an
inveterate gamester on a small scale, and al
most invariably, after a day's duty in the
House, he would drop lu at a laconic casino
and win or lose fifty dollars, that being the
average limit of his betting."
The Journal knew
,the man, and has writ•
ten freely what it knew. But this frankness
gains added furce when it is remembered that
the man whose portrait is thus trulypictured
by his own partisans was the neiCnowledged
leader amone leaders in the party which
claims to be prc-emineu Hy the party of Moral
Ideas, and which Henry Wilson, of Massachu
setts, has asserted to be founded upon the,
"Rock of Ades."
Tag New York Tribune calls Col. Dickey,
of Illinois, a "Copperhead.' 4 We shall see
why le is a Copperhead. President Lincoln
requested the Secretary of War, early in 1801,
to grant Colonel Dickey's request to, raise a
cavalry regiment for the war, saying in his
letter:
"This man is wy friend. Wants to raise a
cavalry regiment. ,He won't lie. He won't
stoat A. LINCOLN."
A. man, who "will not lie nor steal" is of
course a Copperhead.
GEN. 110SECEANS VISITS GEL ZEE.
The main topic of discussion during the
week has been the visit of Gen. Rosecrans to
Gen. Lee, A. 11. Stephens and other Promi
nent ISoutheruers, at White Sulphur Springs,
Virginia, with the object of seeing whether
stone basis could not be agreed upon, for re
conciling the conflicting views of the two
sections, and bringing them together in that
spirit of concord so essential 10 the people of
a common country. The General has been
freely plied with questions relative to his
inilaion, since his return to the North, and
Invariably answers that it was a conception
"of his own, hating no special significance in
a personal or political point of view, and un
dertaken with the purpose of ascertaining
from the lips of their representatives the real
state of sentiment and society in the South.
Notwithstanding his participation in the
war, he was received' by General Lee and
other prominent Southern soldiers with
marked cordiality. In all their personal
communications they were frank and unre
served, and their conversations were mainly
with reference to advancing the common in
terests, irrespective of the causes which fur
a time divided the North and the South, and
resulted in the disgraceful - reconstruction
acts of Congress.
w iambla Co
nrren County.
, The General declines, at present, to make
public what has been done, or to reveal the
programme for the future. He is confident,
bowever,that his mission will result in good to
the country. In answer to a correspondent
who suggested that there were many extreme
men in the South, Gen. Roseerans said, "No,'
that is too strong a term to use :with refer
ence to them. If you call men extreme Who
relbse to allow a parcel of ignorant nlggers
to rule over them, then possibly your term Is
correct. • But our people 'at the North would
not be called extreme if they should refuse
to allow their women anil children to 'rule
over them. And tliis is scarcely a correct
parallel, because our women and children
are intelligent, and for the most part well
educated, but these nivers are steeped in
gross ignorance." "Southern people," the
General contended, "are fixedly set
against the rile of negroeS, and will not sub
mit to it, us the North would refuse to do
under the same circumstances." "They
are," he said, "for peace. They have had
enough of war ; their land is desolate, and
- themselves ruined financially." Gen. Rose
emus says he is no politician, he Is above
party and independent of it, - but he will sup
port any body of men who arc fur peace, and
who wish to give the Southern people a
chancy as against their latb slaves. He be
lieves the election of Gov. Seymour wilt do
much to pacify the Nation, and, although a
warm personal friend of Grant's, will exert
all his influence to defeat him for the Presi
dency.
A WORD TO WORKINGMEN.
The Pittsburgh Post, ono of the most set
slide of our exchange's, says with great force
and truth, that the workingmen of Ibis coun
try will never again see prosperous times,
cheap goods, 11,w rents, provisiohs at thir
rates, and wages so adjusted to prices as to
enable the frugal and intlustilous,to lay up
yearly something over and above current
expenses for the purchase of homes and to
supply the wants of declining years, until the
national debt is paid and the crushing bur•
then of taxation removed - front their
shoulders.
Now, a debt of, over 0,600,000,000, on
which more than $120,000,000 in gold is paid
for interest per annum, Is swallowing up the
profits of labor and reducing the toiling mil
lions of America to the hopeless condition of
the masses in Europe, witere - ohrough the
fraudulent contrivanees of public debts, pa
per money, imposts and class privileges, la
bor is robbed and impoverished, and wealth is
monopolized by the few.
The tendency in America is in the same
direction, and unless arrested will soon es
tablish here the same inequality,by reducing
to bondage those whose labor creates all
wealth, and giving the fruits of their toil to
the possessors of capital.
Anopportunity is now presented by which,
without violation of faith or honor, all but u
very small portion of the public debt can be
paid in greenbacks, the interest stopped and
the whole lie put in such a shape that its en
tire extinguishment can be made a matter of
certianty, and that upon n fixed day not far
oaf. Let this be done, and that'day will be
hailed us a jubilee indeed, by all the sons of
toil from the Atlantic to the Pacific.

The New York Hound Table is an able lit
erary journal, with Repobliein teeleneies.
After the nomination of Governor Seymour it
predicted his defeat. Iltit in it, issue u: Au
gust ,T.,1 it takes it back:
'l:lid we judge merely from indications on
the:surface, this conviction might remain ult.
changed. We haVe, however, become per.
suaded,that there k a powerful underctirrent
of. popular dissatisfacthm with Radical rule
and Radical measures which is gaining rather
than losing strength with the passage of time,
and that, consequently, the chances, which
at present we estimate as nearly even, may
incline in November, in a victorions degm,
to the Democratic side. - * - * •
From present Indications, however, we are
led to believe that the three ureat States of
New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio will throw
themselves into the scale for Seymour and
Blair; and, should they do so, not all the
hosts of New England, backed as they may
be by the West and South, by voters black or
white, Constitutional or unconstitutional, vill
avail to prevent the Republican forces from
kicking the beam."
The living issues of the Campaign are the
abominable corruption of the party in power,
its reckless extravagance, its atrocious negro
supremacy policy, its despotic, unconstitu
tional usurpations and the necessity of an
'economical and better government. In these
there4s matter enough, if properly_ handled,
t 3 sink the Radical party4n the lowestdepths
of infamy and beyond the hope of : resurrec
tion. The facts must be put tersely and
sgotu - ely before the people, or they will be
fimotheFed up by the adroit management of
the Radicals in confusing the public. mind
with past end, side issues and political clap
trap.
Judge Brown.
[From the Brookville IferaJd.l
Judge Brown is one of the best lawyers in
the State, and a gentleman of unblemished
reputation; of sterling integrity, against
whom there can be nothing said. His pop
ularity, in Warren county, where he Is more
intimately known, is the bestevidence of his
character and worth. In an election for
Judge in the Warren district, a couple years
ago, he was the Democratic nominee against
Judge Johnson, his law partner, when he re
duced the Republican majority in - Warren
county from about eleven hundred to but
three votes. The nomination of Judge
Brown gives perfect satisfaction to the Dem
ocrats and Conservatives ofthis district, and
each and every one should go to work; and
work from this time to the election for his
I success. Ills election over Scofield would
redeem-this district from the odium of
represented by a man whose every tote
has been for the debasement of the white
man and the elevation of the negro.
(From the natty Inanateh.l
This gentleman, who hut just been nomi
nated for Congress by the Democracy of this
district, belongs to Warren county, where he
has long been engaged in the practice of law,
stud where he has acquired the reputation,so
far as we elm learn, eta &Kul lawyer, an up
rightjmlge, and an excellent citizen, We
are glad that such is the fact, so' that if he
shall be beaten, as no doubt will be the case,
the reason will not be that he'is not a gdod
man, but that he did not represent a good
cause. And the fault will not be his, as we
understand be did not seek the nomination,
but that the nonination sought him.
LIVE ISSUES.
I'llk RADICAL PLATFORM
In the collection of curiosities opened for
public exhibition by the Radical leaders at
Chicago, and labelled a platform, we find - the
following extraordinary creation:
"5. The National debt, contracted, as It has
been. for the preservation of the Union for
all lime to rouse, should he extended over a
lair period for redemption; and it is the duty
of Cmittres.; he mime flee rale of inh•rtNt
thereon, whenever it tam lumemly lie done."
The ats,ve as reins' kable for what it
leaves o u t, as ter what it _contains. In the
tirst place, the policy of delay in the payment
of the debt is included. That delay iseloaked
under the specious words that its "payment
shall be extended over a fair period for re
demption," and we may. be sure that the au
thors of that resolution mean to make - the
"fair" a very long period.
In the meantime the people are to be bur
dened with the annual drain of $140,000,000
In gold each year by the.way of interest—a
sum which in twenty yeais would amount to
more than the principal itself. The bond
tiOlders and bankers would be largely profi
ted by this delay of payment, in the same
ratio that the people would be injured by it.
There is no promise to the people that the
debt, iyheneyer it is paid, shall be paid In the
currency in which it was - created—making
no such promiset, be inference is clear that
it the Chicago ideas prevail, these bonds are
to be paid in gold. The difference between
gold and greenbacks, in which bonds arc
'legitimately payable, now amounts on 'the
bonds to *800,000,000. This is the magnifl
cent gratuity which is to be given to this
privileged class. Not a word is said in the plat
(bun against the present system of two cur
rencies—greenbacks for the people and gold
for the bondholders and bankers. The Con
vention could see nothing wrong in this dis
crimination, whereby certain favored classes
are to receive thirty cents more on each dol
lar of the debts due them than they pay to
the farmers, mechanics and laborers whom
they owe. Under the policy of delay in the
payment of the debt, this outrageous dis
crimination against the people will also he
perpetuated. ,
Masonic Excursion.
NORTH . BARI., Aug. 31, 1868
Editor Olmerrer :---Thinking, perhaps, items
of news, though not strictly political, would
not be objectionable to your numerous read-
er3, I beg to trespass upon your patience with
a brief account or the free Masonic Excursion
from this place to Jamestown, N. Y., on Tues
day last. The weather was everything that
could haYe been desired. In fact a more
lovely day is seldom seen. The party, num•
bering about one hundred and fifty, starting
from North East on the early morning train
arrived at Brockton about eight o'clock, where
they were detained a short time wailing for
the train from Buffalo. The train arrived, all
on boardeand we are off again. Afler a two
hours' ride on the Cross Cut R. R., in a
winding direction, through deep ravines, and
occasionally amiss a level tract of country, wo
arrived at the pleasant little village of May
ville, at the head of Chautauqua Lake. Soon
the large and commodious steamer "Chautau
qua," is at the landing, the party on- board,
and we are steaming down toward James
town. No sooner are the party comfortably
seated on board the boat than those who de
light iu the merry dance begin to trip the
"light fantastic toe," and, under the enliven
ing influence of the excellent music of the
band, all seem to enjoy thennielYes,: most
heartily. About ten miles from Mayyille we
have a splendid view of Chautauqua 'take
and its surroundings. To attempt a descrip
tion of the scenery attlris point would be ae
less, as language fails to adequately portray
the magnificence, and beauty of this most
picturesque scenery. Suffice it to say, it was
the admiration of the whole company. •A
pleasant voyage of three hours brings us to
Jamestown. Carriages are in waiting to con.,
vey ns to the "Jamestown House," where
dinner is served up in regular metropolitan
style, and, I assure you,• the party did ample
justice to the good things set before them.
Dinner is hardly over before 'we are greeted
with the cry "all aboard for the boat !" Once
more on board the steamer and we are home
ward bound. I would like to particularize
in regard to souse pleasant little incidents
connected with our return trip, but I fear
1 am exhausting your patience. - Suffice it to
say, however, that all whom we have heard
ma're mentiou of the trip, expressed them-,
selves highly delighted with their visit
ChantatiqOa Lake. We arrived at North
East at 12 O'clock Tuesday night, and thus
ended a day of pleasant social recreation,
which will donbtless long be remembered by
all who participated. Our acknowledgements
are due to the Masons, COLIMA I tee of arrange
ments for the admirable manner in which the
excursion was conducted, and also to the
proprietor of the "Jamestown /louse" and his
accr»nmodating :assistants, for kindness and
attention shown us during our short stay in
Jamestown. Yours Truly,
Judge Brown's Acceptance.

Tim real question is not so'muelt whether

"I do not violate private confidence in say

SOME facts, that are startling enough in
themselves, become more ful by -comparison
with others. In the' third vearof - Peace, ac.
cording to Commissioner Wells, our Navy
cost $25,715,500. In the first year of the War;
when the whole Southern coast was blocka
ded, the Navy cost less than V 0,000,000. If
Peace costs more than War, we can scarcely
afford to say With Grant, "Let tis have peace."

The llepston-Pioneerol Rwlieul journal, one
of whose hobbieS is the abolition of the Presi
dential Oleo, gives the following original
reason for its support of Grant:
"Mr. Seymour, a gentleman of recognised
ability, and who,possesses in a high degree the
talent of representation, would be very apt
to restore to its former glory and splendor the
faded mantle of the Presidency. Ile would
for a long
time make the people relinquish
any mien of abolishing the Presidency. It,
therefore, would rot he a bad policy at all, if
all the iipponents of the office of the Presi
dency in general would help to elect General
Grant; for it is impossible to find a man in
the whole nation who could make that office
more ridiculous and odious to the people than
lie :would."

SAMUEL BOWLER, of the Springfield Remit;
limn, who is with Speaker Colfax's party,
writing fiom Denver about the Pacific rail
way, says
"The comnussioners 'nide one of their in
spections the day of our visit to the track,
and we had the rival candidates for Vice-
President in friendly and familiar 'inter
course for a day, and. an evening. The smoke
of their cfgarit, - mingled in common. patricit!
ism, goes up fur their , country's welfare and
glory. Both arc in fine health and spirit,
and alike confident of the electiOn of their
respective tickets. Mr. Blair really seems
aincere in his.falth in a triumph."
TUE Government has, in the last year,
Paid clerks $836,459 for dealing out food far

At the sauna tints hundreds of white work
ingmen and their families suffered for the
necessaries of life. They were not eared for
by Government agents. Bread, meat anti
clothing were not provided for them: Why
should white men be overlooked, neglected,
and negroes pampered, petted and kept itt
idleness? If the toilers . of the North wish a
change in this particular, they must vote for
Seymour and - Blair..
I:sonn Radical rule the (Avg service of
this Government costi $10,000,000 'per year
more than that of England. The cost of the
War Department, as stated by. Radical au
thorities, was , $123,000,000 last year, while
the British army only cost $74,000,000, mid
that, too, with a force nearly four , tithes as
large as ours. In round numbers our army is
composed of 60,000 men, while the British
army has- 213,000 men. Such' facts -as the
above explain the necessity for high taxes.
Tie genuine carpet-bagger is thus drawn
by the Charleston Mercury,:
"A. man with a lank head of dry hair—a
lank.stomach and lank legs, club knees and
splay feet, dried legs and lank jaws, with
eyes like a fish, and a mouth like a shark.
Add to this a habit of sneaking and dodging
about in unknown places—]orbiting and co
habiting With negroes in dark dens and Wick
streets—a look like a hound, and the smell of
a skunk. lie would rob a dead negro, and
forge his father's' name to a draft of live dol

Trtr. expenses of 'the povernmeuf for the
month of July; as reported by the Secretary
of the Trensury, were $46,549,000—0r equal
to five hundrod and fitly-eight millions five
hundred and eighty-eight thousand dollars a
year. All this sum is extracted from the
labor, Industry and'enterprise of the masses.

great stzlet of the wonderful bnceesa of that
Household Itemedy—Mishler's Herb Bitters
—is the unquestioned fart that it purifies the
blood and equalizes its circulation through
out the whole body. It is impossible to have
, a sound; healthy body without pure blood.
The slightest disease, no matter how
where it is located, or - what its "character, is
the result of some existing impurities in the
blood, and if these impurities be not expelled
promptly, disease in some form must be ex
hibited. In all diseases of the stomach, kid
neys, liver, bowels, lungs and heart; the
blood is necessarily impure, and the more
virulent the disease the greater the Impuri
ties. It is only by expelling these on! hu
mor., by neutralizing the intense, burning,
beating properties in fever cases, by restoring
strength, purity and tone to this vital element
of human life, that health can be restored
and preserved. Mi'hler's Herb Bitters pos
sess all the required virtues to effedt this.
