comes of that clause of the Radical declara

"About this time'," as the almanacs say,
look out for Soul-thrilling stories of riots, out

election is ! near at hand, and horrible ac
counts of troubles in some far off section of
the South, of bloody deeds at the dead hour
of midnight by the terrible Ku Klux, will
now be circulated through every possible
channel, with the design of operating upon
the minds of the credulous. After the election
you will hear nu more of them. Remember
"bleeding Kansas," and don't be deceived, but
make the , Radicals toe the mark and explain

THE MODERN MUNCHAUSEN
The Dispatch of Lit week occupied a con.
siderable portion of ps invaluable space with
the .stech of one Edward Atkinson, who,
hawing conceived himself to be commissioned
to enlighten the world on the finances of the
United States, took occasion, at the late Rad
ical State Convention of Massacbuselts, to
open his budget. lie aimed to demonstrate
three things particularly : 1. That the Pub
lic debt woe a great deal larger than the Sec
retary of the Treasury had officially reported.
2. Th et the lh publicans had paid some eight
hundred Millions of the debt since the war:
and 3. That Congress had been frugal and
economical beyond tin; administration of Mr.
Buchanan. The trouble with. Atkinson is
that lie draws too long a bow. Ile' proves
entirely too much, overdoing the thing so
palpably that nobody will believe him. He
is either an egregious, liar, or the Secretary of
the Treasury is worse than incompetent, and
has been imposing upon the public-false offi
cial stattments of the public debt, receipts
and expenditures. The former, we appro..
bend, is the :true state of the case. The
Springfield (Mass.) TiOpuld lean I Radical), says
Atkinson's conclusions are "so - large as to

Tll MAINE ELECTION.
The N. Y. i rrlbuno of last week informs
the Republicans of New York' that, though
the negla froM 'Maine is well, 'ers a promise of
11 Ct . e.,q i t is not enough." "If our vote should
off like that of Maine," the Tribune dole
ttith "eight per cent, of the total vote
of IESB, ?b Otouhl lose New Yolk by 43,718
riilj3rify. 'therefore, n 1: must do six per
cent. better Than Maine, compared kith 1868,
or we logo the State."
The Radicalipresses contend, with a great
flourish of trumpets, that Maine is the key
'hofe, and as it goes so will go 'the Union.
That is all gammon, and was a played -out
tune long ago. In 1848 Maine went for Gen.
Cass by nearly 5,000 plurality, but it was no
key-note to - the music of the other States, as
General Taylor defeated General Cass. In
1856 Maine went for "Fremont by over 28.-
000 plurality, but so did not go the Union, as
Mr. Buchanan was elected President.'
Nor will it now be the key-note of the Oc
tober or November elections. The influ
ences that operate in Yankeedom are not the
influences that will control the elections in
New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois., and other States out of New Eng
land. It will not even be an index of how
all the New England States will go. So the
Republic.,ins that settle themselves in their
easy chairs and smoke their meerschaums,
satisfied that the Maine election puts a
quietus to the policy of paying the bonds in
greenbacks, and foreshadows the election
,of Grant, had ;better not go to sleep, as they
will be aroused by nn electric shock from
Pennsylvania, 01111 and Indiana, that will
Make them think heaven and earth have
come together.
A like proportionate gain to that secured
by the Democrats of Maine, in the vote of
each party in the three 'great States width
hold their elections in ()colter, Will give the

fort they can extract from these figures.
OM BUT BLAIR:
The Radicals have well nigh ceased attack-I
ing Gov. Seymour, but pretend to be horri-'
fled at the idea that he might die, and Frank
Blair step into the Presidential chair. This,
the World admits, might be a supposable
case, "but no more so than the death or disa
bility of any other man who might be elected
President. General Blair Was nominated, as
every Vice-President is, in view of the possi
bility of his becoming President. In solicit
ing rotes for him we ask our fellow-citizens
to vote for a elndidate who would make an
energetic and admirable .President, if he
should ever be called to that station. At any
rate, the .see no reason why RepubUrans
should express so decided a preference foi
Seymour. Blair was an original Republican
—a Republican in a shire State, where it re
quired nerve and cost something to be one.
General Blair was not a man who merely
drifted with a majority. He bearded .the
"Border Ruffians" in their very den. He has
double the pluck of General Gmnt,five times
his brains, and a hundred-fold his eivid expe-
Hence. In the late war, he was the first man
who raised soldiers on the Union side. He
raised them, too, in a slave State, raised them
in defiance of the rebel government of that
State. Every officer who served in the West
says that General Blair was a brave and able
commander. lie was a straight-forward anti
slavery man, so long as slavery existed; his
antecedents are a - guarantee that slavery
could never be re-established with hint at the
heal of the Government. And yet Republi
cans pretend to be horrified at the thooght of
Blair's being President rather titan Seymour.
We submit that a better President than Gen.
Blair will be a President - with whmn both
parties ought to be sathlled. Demoersts
ought to be very well satMled v Rh Blair be
cans.; slavery is extinct; Republicans ought
to he very well satisfied with hint because
he would never permit it to be revived. By
the common consent of both parties, Sey
mour would make a better President," As both
sides are so well satisfied with Seytnour's ea
pacity, why not elect him by unanimous con
sent, and secure a President who will do
honor to the nation ?
GOOD NEWS FROIII THE WEST AND
An election woe held in city, Kan
sas, on the 12th inst , for two School Direc
tors to till vacancies, and created unusual
eitement on account of the approaching Pres
ide-tidal election. Both parties selected their
bat men, and the party papl•rs called upon
their friends to turn out, as the result was to
be considered a test of party sit ength. A
full vote was pulled, and the Democratic
ticket was elected by an average majority of
volts. The city has hitherto been one of
the 12adieal strongholds, and two years ago
the man v.ho would have thought of electing
a Democratic ticket would have been pro
nounced irmtne.

In Alton, 111., for - ten years past, whenever
Pal ty lines have been strictly drawn, we have
con- lered ourselves doing well to secure an
average majority of seventy-five. , But at the
election, a few weeks ago, Drumond, Dem
ocratic nominee for Mayor, beat his Radical
opponent, Dr. 'Williams, one hundred and
sixty-one votes, and the average majority on
the whole ticket will not vary far from two
Hundred and sixty-five. What makes this
triumph the more surprising and significant
is the fact that - the very largest vote was
polled on Tuesday ever produced at a situilar
election.
The news from Georgia and Alabama is of
the most cheering character. There is no
doubt we shall entry both of these States.
W. W. Boyer, A. A. Wilbur and Edward R.
Harden, of the Radical Electoral Ticket in
Georgia, have declined running, and an
nounced themselves for. Seymour and Blair.
Ny. 11, Jones, and J. K. Chisolm; (both on the
Radical Electoral Ticket in Alabama) have
declined running and are supporting ;the
Democratic candidates. Dr. F. W. Sykes,
(President o of the first Radical Convention in
Alabama,) Thomas Mastersob, Gen. W. Aus
tin, Moses Maples, and James William's, Rad
ical Representatives in the Alabama Legisla
ture, and Judge Jas. S. Clarke, of same State,
have abandoned the Radicals.
AN IMPARTIAL WITNESS.
The Dispatch telegraphic columns nearly
evetiy day teem with accounts of shocking
outrages in the South, which have a striking
resemblance to, the stories that used to be
circulated in the memorable days of " bleed
ing Kansas." Whether they are manufactured
in that office, or at the Radical headquarters
in Washingtorn New Yorit, and Philadelphia',
we do not know, but that nine-tenths of them
are mere concoctions we are absolutely cer
tain. The Philadelphia Ledger, a paper of
Republichn tendencies. but widely known as
one of the most reliable in the country, pub
li,laca the following telegram from Washing s
ton, which fully sustaius our e position :
• Wastruvorox, Sept. 14. -
A gentleman, well and favorably known
to the public, and a Republican in politi
has just arrived here, having Concluded a

of those States are greatly exaggerated, and
especially is this so as to the sentiment in
Tennessee. In the latter State he - says the
ex-rebels are submissive, and disposed to
abide by the laws of the State. The K. K.

WHAT MP PENNSTLVAATIA7
The New York correspondent of the Cin
cinnati Enquirer writes that " Governor Fen
ton last Sunday received a letter from 4h
lusha A. Grow, Chairman of the Republican
Central Committee in Pennsylvania, to the
effect that the Democracy here (in Pennsyl
vania), have the completes) machinery of or
ganization that I have ever known. It is in
imitable, and `past tirlding, out.' It is impoi
sible to corner them or to detect their work
ings, and are able to make so thorough
a canvass of this State as to tell within two
thousand votes of the ultimate result at least
two weeks before the election.' I have seen
this letter, adds the correspondent, and I
speak 'by the card.'"
A dispatch to - the World from Philadel
phia says "the Democrats of this city and
Stato are in the most excellent working or
der. It is generally regarded that the Maine
election has shown a defection in the Repub
lican lines. From a careful canvass made, it
is calculated the Democrats will have a ma
jority on the local ticket of at least five thou
sand in the City. The State, it is generally
understood, will give a majority of fißeen
to twenty thousand." In 1866, Gov. Geary
had 5,40 d majoty in Philadelphia, and
17,178 in the State. In case the expectation
of the World's correspondent is realized, over
ten thousand of , Geary's majority will be
wiped out, bythe vote of Philadelphia alone.
Telegrams from Washington say Hon. John
L. Dawson, one of the shrewdest politicians
in the State, is in that city, and "gives hope
ful accounts of the canvass in Pennsylvania.
He entertains no doubts of success for the
Democracy in the coming election." Every-.
where, the Democratie.counties promise to
roll up. increased majorities, while in no sec
tion do the Radicals anticipate a better result
than they had in 1866. Democrats of Erie
Co., depend upon it, that if we, in this region
of midnight darkness, second our brethren
of the East and South with the right spirit,
the old Keystone will place herself alongside
of Kentucky, Connecticut, California, and
Oregon in October.

We print below the votes of the States tha

over the reduced majorities in Maine and
Vermont. If they can extract any comtor
from the table, we are willing they shal

The total vote of these seven States is
345,319. That of Pennsylvania in 1866 was
597,370, or more than 50,000 greater. It is
not unreasonable to expect that the vote of
our State in October will be little short of
625,000, and if the Democracy should make
a proportionate gain to that of the States
which have voted, our majority would not be
leas than 50,001). A scrutiny of the figures
will enable any person of ordinary intelli
gence to see, that, instead of the elections of
this year being a cause of despondency for
Democrats, they actually furnish reason for
very great encouragement.

CONGRATULATORY ADDRESS.
DEMOCRATIC STATE Cosy. RoOMS,
903 ARCH STREET, PInL'A.
To the Denwraey ef Pennsylrania : .
The sturdy Democracy of Maine have
covered themselves with dory.
In the very citadel of Radicalism they de
monstrated that you arc 'upon the eve of a
magnificent victory.
The two parties were lust arrayed at the
polls upon national issues in 1864. Maine
then polled a vote nearly equal to' her vote
of 1861, whilst Pennsylvania polled her
largest vote.
In 1866 Radienlism received in Maine 69,-
637 votes. In 1868 it receives, as they them
selves estimate, 72.002 votes. This is an
increase of 8 per cent. upon the vote of
1866.
In 1866 Democracy there received 41,947
votes, and in 1868 it receives 51,725 votes.
This is an increase of 30 per cent. upon the
vote of 1866.
In 1866 Radicalism received in Pennsylva
nia 307,274 votes, and Democracy received
290,096 votes.
. 'Apply the test of Maine to this vote, and
Radicalism will receive in Pennsylvania an
increase of 8 per cent, or 24,581 votes, rank
ing a total of 831,855 votes, and Democracy
will receive an increase of 30 per cent, or
87,028 votes, making a total of 377,124 Demo
cratic votes, showing that we will have a
clear Democratic majority of 45,269 votes.
Whilst the totals shown by this estimate
are too large for thb vote that we will cast
in October, no man who knows the condi
tion of public' sentiment in Pennsylvania will
assert that the relative proportion will be
lessened.
Maine voted for John C. Freinont, yet
James Buchanan %yds elected President, and
Pennsylvania led the column of States that
made him the Chief Executive of the na
tion.
The hope of the Republic is in the Demo
cracy of the Keystone.
As in 1.8513, the responsibility of dctermin:
ing the contest now rests with you.
Maine has prov.en that you can again bring
triumph to the principles you love.
Let us arouse to renewed energy and more
determined effort.
By order of the Democratic State Corn
mittee.

Where Does it Lome From.
[From the Warren Ledger.]
How is it that the Radical members of Con
gress have so much money to spend for elec
tioneering - purposes, if they are honest?
Every one of whom we can learn, is spend
ing thousands of dollars in each of their Dis
tricts. The amount being expended in this
Distnct, by our honorable member, G. W.
Scofield, is wonderful. Mr. Scofield is a
careful man in business matters, and never
has been known to be prodigal of his own
money in any way; but now he is paying it
out with a liberal band, as "God scatters the
seeds of genius." Every prominent man is
carrying money paid by our member for elec
tioneering purposes, and ive learn that he
tells them if they r need more to call on bins.
Where does the money come from? Let the
tax-payers answer? They can do it. But
little more than fifty per cent. of all taxes col
lected goes into the Treasury, but sticks to
the; fingers of officials. The supposition is,
then, that the millions that do not go into
the treasury is retained and for electioneer
ing purposes, and is divided among Republi
can Congressmen, and other chief cooks of
the party. It is a pretty well ascertained
fact that offers are made daily for Demo
crats to vote the Republican ticket, and that
affidavits will be made to that effect. The
fact is, the people are not paying their taxes
to pay off the debt, but to keep the traitorous,
thieving Republican party in power. They
may as well learn that fact first as last They
are being taxed M death with the promise of
reducing the debt, but they falsify when they
say it has been reduced. Taxation will not
be reduced until Republicanism is defeated,
and that time will be in November.
Dear Obserrer :—The Democracy of this
district met again, according to adjournment,
on Saturday evening last, and, notwithstand
ing the lowering, clouds and the threatened
rains, we had quite a full house. Addresses
were made by Mr..T. I'. Joes and Capt. D.
W. Hutchinson, of Girard. We intend to
have a pole raising in Lockport, between this
and the October elections.
It is quite amusing to witness the efforts of
the Rads in this district, to infuse a little
spirit and enthusiasm into the rank and file.
They hold their meetings regularly eery
Friday evening, but as yet they have been
unable to get together more than twenty-five
persons, at any one time, including Demo
crats and boys. At their last meeting, an ex
school teacher from Girard had the pleasure
of haranguing some fifteen Republican voters
for ti while, but the dose was too much for
even some of them, two, at least, of whom
adjourned to the bar-room to take a drink,
and then tipped back in their chairs and
quietly went to sleep. Their biggest effort
during the campaign so far, however, was
on the evening of the 11th inst., when they
brought into requisition Mr. Woodruff, of
Girard, and the "big gnn," Rev. (t) Whallon.
Even the "big gun" drew but the pitiful au
dience of twenty persons all told, and part
of them were Democrats. True to his nat
ural instincts, the "big gun" 'wallowed in
the filth of low personal abuse, and political
black-g-uartlism, to the fouling of his own
mouth and the infinite disgust of his hearers.
But the joke of the affair follows. Owing to
the swollen stage of the stream, and the dark
ness of the night, the speakers were unable
to get back to Girard 'till morning, and in all
the vast Republican audience there was not
one manly enough to take the speakers with
him; but, with eliargeterietie meanness, al
lowed tlww to go to the hotel and Day for their
lodging. I don't believe the "big gun" will
ever consent to give anigher round in Lock
port. We meet again in two weeks. Keep
the ball rolling. Yours truly,
COLSON'.
PLATER, Sept. 22d, 18G8.
Dear 03,gerrer :—After my letter yesterday
was posted, we bad a pole raising and a
rousing mass meeting at Albion. The fol
lowing is the list of officers :
President, Dr. J. S. Skields ; Vice Presi-.
dents, Wm. Sherman, 31. Jackson, A. Pome
roy, M. Wood, A. Lan "don, L. Badger, Hugh
Lavery, Martin Bently, Jas. M. Miller, Mr.
Hall and Ralph Bowman.
Secretaries, Capt. D. W. Ilutehinson, L.
W. Savage, A. C. 3filler and R. Cahill.
The day was very pleasant, and the con
course of people far exceeded all expecta
tions. The pole, a splendid , hickory, was_
raised without hindrance or accident, and
our glorious old banner unfurled to the
breeze amid the shouts of hundreds of Dem
ocrats. Wm. A. Galbraith was the speaker
of the day, and his speech was characterized,
as are all his speeches, with that candor,
earnestness and unanswerable argument
which render him the favorite of the Demo
cracy of North Western Pennsylvania. Mr.
Galbraith ought to be in Congress, and if the
black cloud ever rolls from our political
horizon, we will not forget him. He was
followed by Mr. Woodward, from Conneaut,
Ohio, in a few well-timed remarks. A pet
ty little druggist, across the way 'from the
speakers' stand, attempted to annoy the
meeting by setting some workmen to tearing
off the plastering in an old building he was
repairing, but by a little emphatic moral sua
sion ho was induced to postpone his labors.
Yours, in the cause of Democracy,

Editor Obsemer :—The mercury in the
Democratic thermometer runs up among the
"nineties," and the prospects of a gloriong
triumph at the coming . October and Novem
ber elections are cheering to all lovers of the
Constitution and good government. The
largely increased vote and heavy per tentage
of gains made by the Democracy at the fate
State elections in Maine and Vermont, (not
withstanding the intimidation, bribery and
proscription practiced by the Radicals), has
had a salutary effect upon the Democrats of
this section of Erie county, and they feel in
spired and determined to "go and do like
wise" at the coming State election. We all
know that if the Democrats of Pennsylvania
poll as large a ratio of the increased vote of
this State as did our brethren in Maine and
Vermont in their late elections, we will carry
Pennsylvania by twenty or thirty thousand
majority. Our Radical friends are also aware
of this fact, and arc waiting in sullen silence
to hear the Democratic thunder from Penn
sylvania, Ohio and Indiana, on the second
Tuesday of October, and which will re-echo
from the granite bills of New Hampshire to
the everglades and bullrushes of Florida. Yon
may set the borough and township of North
East down for an inercbsed vote and a Dem
ocratic gain at our coming State election,
with the promise of doing still better in No
vember.
_ .
Our village paper, the North East Herald,
has "went dead." It claimed to be "inde
pendent," (rt is the Dispatch of a year ago),
but leaned heavilY toward Radicalism a short
time before its death. This, in. connection
with its "milk and water" nothingness, killed
It, and there are, few, if any, in this comma
dity to mourn its loss. The proprietor has
removed his type and press to Westfield, N.
1., where. he purposes issuing a Radical
sheet. We congratulate the "trooly loll" of
Westfield in securing the services of such an
able (!) expounder of their principles as the
aforesaid editor and proprietor of the defunct
North East Herald.
A new paper, to be called the North East
Star, is to make its appearance here on Sat
urday next, September 26tli. The Star, as
your - corrOpondent learns, will be issued
every Saturday, edited and published by
Messrs. Brainard & Cluliman, two young
counsellors at law, of this place. 1 under
stand that its Complexion, politically, will be
"Conservative Republican," (whatever that
means "deponent sayeth not") The Democ
racy look upon- the forthcoming Star as a
"weak invention of the enemy," but arc wil
ling to give it a fair proportion of their sup
port iu the way of advertising, for the sake
of having a newspaper published in this
borough. Success to it in all things—except
its politics. Yours, &c.,

Editor Obeorar :—Being on a business tour
through the Oil regions, it was my good for
tune to attend the pole raising and. Demo
cratic mass meeting at Rousevdle, on Satur
day, Sept. 19th. The meeting was called to
order by A. J. Greenfield, Esq., and Wm. M.
Irish appointed President, with several of the
most prominent men of Venango county for
Vice Presidents and Secretaries. The meet
ing was ably addressed by General A. B.
.31eCalmont, of Franklin; It. M. DeFrance,
of Mercer county ; Col. J. K. Kerr, of, Pitts
burg, and Col.W. D. 3lobre, of the same city,
in the afternoon; and by W. C. Plummer,
Esq., of Franklin, in the evening. The whole
occasion was a great success, fully two thou
sand of the honest yoemanry being in attend
ance. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed,
and, although as a general thing your corres
pondent endeavors to avoid all bombast,
from personal observation and the actual
canvass in Venango county, I have no hesi
tation in saying to our Democratic brethren
in North-western Pennsylvania that Venango
county is going for Seymour and Blair be
yond a doubt. Notwithstanding the bogus
dispatches of Forney on the Maine election
and the lying misrepresentations of the Rads,
old Venango will enroll herself on the side
of the laboring man, the Constitution and the
Union. No enthusiasm prevails in the Re
publican ranks—nothing but consternation
and dismay predominates iu their councils—
as shown by their late meeting in Oil City,
which had an attendance of only about 350,
all told. Vire la Republic!
Yours truly, Oces.stoNtat.
Editor ONerrer :—Last Tuesday the Dem
ocrats of this place raised a beautiful hickory
pole, one hundred feet high without any
splice, in front of the Robinson House. They
had a reasonably large turn out. A few re
marks were
/
made by Messrs Taylor, Allen
and Hugh ,(a recent convert from the Re
publican rty) . and Esq. Boles, of Crawford
County. Mr. Allen said we had now two
poles—the ono that was broken, with its head
hanging down, represented the Government
under Radical power ; the other, with its
head erect, as the Government wllLbe after
election if Seymour is elected. Hon. J. K.
llornish, of Warren Co., spoke to the Demo.
cratic club here last night. If we had a few
more such men, there would be a good many
converts from the Radical faith before the
fall election. He said he , would stake his
veracity that Scofield would tell his;' cat
story at the Radical meeting to day, and
sure enough be did tell it. There was once
a cat, according to Scofield, which was shut
up in a box, so that its head was out at one end
and its tail out - at the other. When the tail
would be pinched there would be a terrible
mewing in the other end of the box;" which
he compared to 'Northern Copperheads, who
always set up a fearful cry whenever the reb
els are hurt. The story is a fair sample.of the
stuff with which Scofield regales big hearers.

officers, who toadied after McClellan while
he was in power. The names of these wor

all the while drawing his pay as Major Gen

violation of a constitutional provision.
Have they become so absorbed in party
vindictiveness as to have forgotten who was
the hero thatiwon this battle? Have they
forgotten the discouraging eircumatances-un

Acqnla, was superseded by the empty-headed
and bombastic Popefand, after great perplex

supplies to the front, was lett, without a com

fate of the army upon the battle field without
a command, believing his presence
,might
serve to 'stimulate the troops whom he had
lately commanded? I would ask, aro there
many Generals who would have made such
a sacrifice at pride under the eircumatances?
No; Fremont took umbrage at a inch less
aggravating position. This small boon was
denied him. But, mark ye l they soon began
to " haul in their horns." Such a dilemma
did the President and 'the Department get
into, that General Halleck 'telegraphed to
McClellan, on the 31st of August ; "I beg you

Lee, with his victorious torces, it was ex

had nada to put ,McClellan is command.
He at once set to work to re-organize this
crippled army, as he moved it up the Poto
mac into Maryland to meet Lee, he having
taken that direction to invade. The forces
were about equal (30,000 each), but one was
a victorious army, in good condition, the
other.a defeated army, worn out and dispir

liver complaint.
Now, reader, self-abuse, venereal diseases
badly cured, and sexual exee,s,es, are all cape- '
ble of producing a weakness of the generative
organs. The organs of generation, when In
perfect health, make the titan. Did you ever
think that those bold, defiant, energetic, perse
vering, successful businesm ‘ men are alwayei
those whose generative organs are In perfect
health? -You never hear such men complain
of being melancholy, of nervousness, or palpi
tation of the heart. They are never afraid they
cannot succeed in business; they don't become
sad and discouraged; they are always polite
and pleasant in the company of ladles, and look
you and them right in the face—none of .vour
downcast looks or any other meanness about
them. Ido not mean those who keep the or
gans inflated by running to excess. These will
not only ruin their oonstitutions, but also those
they do business with or for.
How many men, front badly cured diseases,
from the effects of self-abuse and excesses, have
brought about that state of weakness in those
organs that has reduced the general system .so
much as to induce almost every other diseascs—
Idlotcy - , lunacy, paralysis, spinal affections,
suicide and almost every other form of disease
