Prom the list of meetings arranged by the State Committee, and the representations of our exchange's, we are led to the conclusion that the-campaign is-being conducted by our party in Pennsylvania with a degree of ener gy scarcely ever . witnessed. Accounts agree that complete and thorough organization is marking every Locality, and the rightkind of work is brought to bear upon the'canvass. Among the many prominent speakers who are now effectively addressing the people, are Iron. Wm. Bigler, H.n..J. It Doolittle, Hon. B. 31. Boyer, Hon. Richard - Van-li, Hon. Wm. P. Jenks, lion.

P. bury, and a host, of others. Besides the gen tlemen we : have named, there are hundreds who are raising theireloquent voices in de fense of " the right" in every locality. Our meetings are attendedwithlarge and enthu siastic crowds of freemen, and never before were the Democrats of Pennsylvania so sol emnly in earnest in a political canvass A maim necioszvr. A little incident occurred at the Demo• tratic National Convention, which has not been mentioned before, and may possess some interest. The grand hall where that Convention met was full of patriotic men. Upon its walli were poised the shields of the whole thirty.seven States, and around every shield was the American flag. Upon the platform stood two bronze statues of no ble soldiers, one leaning upon a great bronze sword. The Convention had been in session several days. Ballot after ballot had taken place. First one was up and then another, and preiently a gallant general whose name has never anywhere been Mentioned bUt with respect—Bancoek—was taking the lead. No man knew whether en the next ballothe was or was not to be chosen. Everything was uncertain, when, suddenly, the great bronze sword In the,statue's hand snapped asunder at the hilt: It was not touched by mortal hand. No human agency broke it. Some mysterious, invisible, and irresistible power snapped it at the hilt, and the word went forth that the country was to have here after a statesman and not a soldier for its leader. • CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS IT IMMN We gi've the majorities on members of Congress at the late eleeticiu, as stated by the New York Tribeine,Mitl compiire them with the result two years'tigo : Ist District—Rep majority in 18116 3,958 ".. .-" 18114 3,200 , " Rept*Ream - - • 1,758 2d District—Rep. majoritr o in 1866 6,421 1888 5,600 Republican less -- - - 1,421 3d Districtl—Rep. majority in 1866 6,591 1. 180 S 5,00() Republican /ass - - 1,501 4th District—Rep. majority in 1856 3,495 180 4,500 Republican loss r • - 995 sth District—Rep. majority ,in 1550 4,37$ 1869 3,090 Repriblican loss -The Republican losses on the , Congres sional voile foot up 7,143.

New Zealand., (i's command 109 1-2, Russian s's 86 1.2, Turkish 6's, 83, Italian s's 72, Peruvian S's 81, English con sols, which draw only three per cent. inter est, are worth 04 1-2, and the Moorish bonds, s's, are worth 09 cents. The securities of the United States, which come in at the tail of the list, in the foreign money market bring only 70 7-8 cents on the dollar. Could there be any stronger evidence of the tirod manage ment of our finances by the Radicals? When they took possession of the government, our bonds were above par all over the world, but now they are thirty per.cent..ibelow par: If the paper of an individual was selling for seventy cents on the dollar, and be was run ning into debt every mouth, how long would it be. before be would be bankrupt? The government is iu this condition precisely. • 13n1onn Frank Blair's nomination by the Democracy lie was is-splendid good fellow, a gentleman and a brave , soldier, in RadiCal estimation. In a speech In Congress on the llth of March; 1862 . , John Hickman, Hiad.,) of Pennsylvania, spoke', of Blair in the fol lowing complimentary terms: "A great deal of tivdit is duo my friend of the St.Lonisdistrict (Mr Blair),thr keeping the State of 'Missouri in the Union.

Colfax's record in the light of the facts and the evidence, We affirm, in the Taco of that gentleman's contradiction, that he was a• member of the 'society generally tutowtras the Know-Nothing order, that he took an active and leading part in its deliber atious,and thathe dare not come out openly, and, over his own _signature, deny the truth of what we state here or below. The newspapers of June, 1855, show, and Imlay living witnesses can testify, that he was an active and prominent member of the Know-Nothing National Council, which met in secret st•ssion is Philadelphia, about the Gth of June, 1.8•15, It was well known, at the that only the most trusted members of Cap order gained admission to that Cpunell; That for several days nothing was riubliely latawn of its proceedings, or who were dele gates to it. A Philadelphia correspondent wrote to the New York Herald: "A large number of gentlemen of distinction arc here, and the general impression seems to he that they are intimate acquaintances of the mys terious and übiquitous Sam." About the Ilth of June, the organization was completed by the election of the officers, and a committee on a platform was announced. The second name on that committee was "Colfax, of In diana." The correspondent stated that "Mr, Colfax, the member of Congress elect, wants a platform to suit Northern Indiana." The majority overruled Mr. Colfax, and reported a platform that did not snit Northern Indi ana. Mr. Colfax and the minority of the committee made a minority report, which be big rejected, he and others subsequently abandoned the American party, as they then called themselves (on account of their views on- he slavery question), went off and joined the radical abolitionists, and nominated re rriont. This Is Mr. Colfax's record jest ante rior to " the past tWelve years." In the Convention herementioned Indiana was represented by the following delegates: DilliamCumback, Car SenryLv.u, CoisAx' Godlove S. Orth, J. S. Harvey, F. 1). Alldn, James It. M. Bryant, Thomas C. Slaughter. The committee on platform, allotted to above, was constituted as follows:" Gibson, of Illi nois; rirCoLrax_all, of Indiana; Lyons, of New York; Gambh, of Missouri; Colby, of New Hampshire: Outs, of Indiana; Sperry, of Connecticut; 'Ellis, of District of Colum bia; L. Foster, of Massachusetts; tattling, of Virginia; Deshler, of New Jersey.; Ricard, of . Indiana; Matthews, of California." ' In consequence of the - difficulty - about a platform, certain- roc:ushers of the National Council seceded, and Set up an organizatton to co-operate With the new Republican party, holding their sessions in the Girard House. We have before us a copy of the-Phihulel phia Evening Post of the 23d of June, con taining a detailed •report of the proceedings and platform, Which would he enrions rind instructive reading for those persons of for eign birth who support Mr. Colfax's aspira tions to the Vice Presidency. They attrilnde oar national disturbances to the large foreign element In the voting population, call upon the people to place only Americans upon guard; and demand a restriction of the right of suft4e. ' These proceedings, end the call 'appended theretO, are signed by the follow ing 'delegates from Indiana: War. CUM/SACK, SCUCTLEII COLFAX, CODE OVE 8. ORTN, J. 8. HARVEY, F. D. ALLEN, JAS R. AL. literaisx. The conclusion is related by a Trenton (N. J.) paper: "In 1856, Schuyler Colfax, Daniel Litman, Renajah Deacon, and other then.prominent Know-Nothings left Philadelphia, where the Radical National Convention was in session, on the Owl train, came to Trenton, knocked rip William L. Dayton at midnight, and swore him, in his shirt-tail, into the Native Ameri can party.- The next day Dayton was nom inated for Vice President. On the strength of that ruittniatt oath, Commodore Stockton 'resigned his 'Native American nomination for President, anti supported Freuiont and Dayton ;'also supporting William A; Newell for Radical Governor of Now Jersey. Colfax held the bible and read the oath ; Deacon laid the sword across the book, and litmus ratified the business by drinks all around." In the teeth of such positive evidence, bow despicable must the - Radical candidate for Vice President seem in the eyes of all honest men, when he stands before the world guilty of framing such a sneaking falsehood as that by which he attempted to escape the de served odium of having been a leader in the Infamous and proscriptive Know-Nothing party. The truth is, Mr. Colfax is a profes sional politician, and a tricky and dishonest one at that. Ile has boxed the political corn pass, and has borne -In turn, all the aliases by which the opposition to the Democratic party has been distinguished, from the days of Whiggery down to the present time. The 1 proof (4 . hi, 11now•liothinglam is beyond controversy,' amt Ida quibbling speech at &aid; Rend can only datuage him by showing how little regard he has for truth, and making It 'plain to the people what a - contemptible political trickster he is. - We close our testi mony with the following extract from the Louisville Journal, whose famous editor Geo. D. Prentice, was one of the delegates to the Convention in which Mr. Colfax partici.: Fated EEin " I, Selmyler Colfax, or South Bend, In the State of Indiana, a native-born citizen of the United States, and of Protestant faith, in the presence of Almighty God: and these wit ne&Ses, do solemnly promise and swear thatl will not vote e ztor grve..mv influence for any mani tbr. any office in the , gift of the people, Unless be be an American-born citizen, in fa. vor of Americana ruling America, nor if he be a Roman Catholic.- "In the presence of Almighty God and these witnesses, I do solemnly and sincerely swear that I will, wbeit elected or appointed to any official station conferring on me the power to do so, remove all foreigners, aliens, or Roman Catholics front office or place; and that I will in no case appoint such to any office or place iri my gift." . This is Schuyler Colfax's recorded oath: lie dares not deny it. No respectable friend of his dares deny it in his behalf, Be is now seeking the votes of foreign-born citizens, and of Roman Catholic& .Whether his oath was right or wrong we need sot now undertake to say. But the miserable creature, without denying the fact of his Oath; pnblishes a card saying that he has done nothing against for. signers or Roman Catholics within the last twelve years. Well, suppose he hasn't. The oath which he took dates very slightly more than twelve yeataback. But there a the oath. It wasn't an oath as to what he would do in, twelve years or far any number of years. It was an oath as to what he would do in the future.

A. minor under the age of twenty-one years, who shall have resided,in the United States three years next preceding his arri val at such age, may, after lie shall have re sided five years within the United States, and after he arrives at the age of twenty-one yeah:, be admitted a citizen without having made the declaration of his intention to be come so, two years prior to such admission.

An alien, of the .age of twenty-one• years and upward, who enlisted ,in the entries of the United States; either the regalia or vol unteer forces, and has been honorably dis charged, may be admitted to beeonie it citi zen on proof of his residence of one year within the United States, previous to his ap plication. to become, a citizen, and, without the formality of a declaration of his inten tion to become such citizen. For rill purposes except voting, a person who can show that he has served his country in the army and been honorably discharged, is a citizen. He can hold and dispose of real estate, and per form other acts of citizenship. But to ac quire the privilege of voting, he must go be fore a Court of Record, show his honorable discharge, and receive the certificate of nat uralization. Those who apply for naturaliz ation by reason of military service, must present their discharge papers from such ser vice, and bring two witnesses competent to prove that he has resided in the State for more than one year last past, and that he was honorably discharged_ from the service of the United States. . • The minor children of persons naturalized, if the children are then dwelling in the Uni ted States, become citizens by the natuml-, ization of the parent. The act of Congresa of Feb. 10, 1854, decided that the naturaliza tion of the husband, made his alien, wife a citizen: capable of holding, inheriting, sell ing, or bequeathing real estate. To entitle aliens to vote at the next Presi dential election, they may procure their na. turalization papers on or before the '2d day of November next. Who Pay the Taxes. Mr. Scofield, in Lis speech at Walther's Mit, told the people that they pay no taxes', and that the revenues of the Federal govern ment are mainly derived from ra compara five!), few individuals. The statement was received with a round of applause, showing that a large portion of those who heard him, believed the speaker to be telling the truth. It may seem strange that in an age of news papers, any class of men should be so Igno rant as to endorse sucira sentiment, and it shows how poorly informed the mass of vo ters are, notwithstanding our boasted intelli gence. The truth is, as we have often shown, that every man, woman and child does pay a tax on every thing ate, drank, worn or used. The tax is not levied directly, as the State or County tax is, liut is collected in the shape of a tariff at the various ports of entry upon our seaboard. So wide arc the ramifications of this tariff system, that we will venture the assertion that there is not an article of daily use which does not in some shape pay its proportion of fax to the support of the gov ernment. In order to bring the point home to all, we liaye compiled the following table, stating the cost of some of the most common articles delivered at New York, the tariff up on them, and the rates at which they are sold to the consumer: • 0 ~3 . .r... & 1. 1' I il m 0 i” . • . Matches per gross, J $0.24 $2 10 $2 40 Tea per lb., 83 187 120 Coffee per lb., 15 15 30 Molasses per minim, 20 40 GO Sugar per lb., 7 9 16 Salt per bdshel, 33 42 75 Tobacco per lb., 25 00 ' 85 Soap per lb:, 5 7 12 Pepper per lb., 25 25 50 Cloves per lb., 30 20 50 Ging,er per lb., ' 8 • 3.3 40 Nutmegs per 1b.,, 50 50 100 Starch per lb., 10 5 15 Raisins per lb., 10 12 22 Cream Tartar per lb., 2043 65 Lemons per box,. 2.00 600 ' 800 Rice per lb,, 5 7 12' Candles per lb., . 12 8 20' Coal per ton, 660 300 850 . Nails per lb., 4 2 • 0 Alcohol per gallon, , 100 300 400 A glance at these flares will satisfy any voter who sees them that the election this year concerns him to a very serions degree. It is asserted by good authority, that for ev ery hundred dollars expended by a citizen of the United States, at rettit one•quartcr goes to pay off the tariff tax, which would make the average taxation of every farmer and me chanic about two hundred dollars yearly. This heavy tariff is rendered necessary by the extravagant rule of the .Radical party, which lies trebled the expenses of the government since it came 'into power, andi is note using the people's money to perpetuate its hold upon the Treasury for four years more of like wrong and mismanagement. What to Do. The New York Tribune, a few days since, gave some advice to its party friends, which is so pertinent to the occasion, that 'readopt it as our own, with the slight exception of changing the Dairies: Now friends of ~ e ymour in every* State ! arc you at work?

ATrou.NEr-Onstaaat Baswerrart andA ator Cameron Were in the city on Tuesday, stopping with Mr. Lowry. The Dispatch says their business was " connected with the .election," btat 'what particular election it for gets to 'mention. We judge the one that most concerned them is the election of a United States Senator by the nest Legisla ture, Mr. Brewster being the candidate of Messrs. Cameron, and Lowry for that' posi tion. It is to be presumed that our prospec tive members of Assembly have been seen, and " timed nil right" for the Cameron ttomi. On Tuesday evening Messrs, Brews ter and . Cameron were announced to address a Radical meeting, and Walther's Hall was about two-thirds full of persons gathered to hear them. The opinion of all we have seen, who were present, is to the effect that two less interesting speakers have not visited Erie during the canvass. Mr. Brewster's re marks were mainly devoted to a denuncia; Lion of the record of the Democracy pre vious to the war, which sounded rather strangely for a gentleman who was an active member of our party until' after Lincoln's election. Ho stated further that he would rather the South'. had won its independence than, that Seymour and Blair should be elec ted,a sentiment so *revolting to . all patriotic instincts that it is condemned as strongly by Republicans as hy our own party. Gen. Cameron said he-seas incapable of making a speech, and atter a talk of about three_ m,irt- . utei length none of the audience disagreed with the estimate - he placed upon his own talents. IN order to close further inquales on the subject, we take this opportunity to state that no attempt to get up a larg4inass meet ing will be made by our party. friends in the city this Tear. The leading Democrats arc of the belief that we can accomplish more by indoor gatherings, at which all of both par ties who wish to attend can be comfortably seated, and listen without disturbance to the arguments of our speakers, than by tho noisy and flashy demonstrations that are suppoSed, by some to be inseparable from political con tests. In this View we fully concur, and the experience of the present and past campaigns bears us out in our position. With the heavy preponderance of the Radicals, both in numbers and in wealth, it is tin easy .mat ter for them to surpass us in show, and an -anointit ta compete with theca 'on)y result in redoubled labors on their part to raise the enthusiasm of their adherents in the county. A considerable experience in the political field satisfies us that the poorest course a partisan organization can adopt is to make much of a stir in a county where it is in ,a minority. Steady, unceasing, quiet work is what tells—having active men se lected for the duties for which they are par ticularly fitted, and seeing that all perform their fair share of the required labor. If there are any Democrats In the city or court• ty who think more effective service can be rendered for 'the cause than is now being done, let them at once unite themselves with their district organizations, and help to place the party interests in their respective locali ties in a better condition. Tau Republican reibses to inform us whether or not Mr. Scofield did take the "ex ha pay," but endeavors to, divert us from pressing the inquiry by threatening to pub lish some pharges against. Judge Brown, in connection with the failure of the North Western Bank. The dilemma in which our cetemporary finds itself is well shown by this attempt to escape the responsibility of giiing a straight-forward answer to our in terrogatory. Had Judge Scofield adhered to his written pledge on that, subject, the Re-, publican would have been eager to furnish the proof, instead of seeking to evade the is sue by. assailing the personal and - business character of our candidate. The Republican may as welt understand, fairly and explicitly, that we are not to be driveti from onr-pui pose by fear of any concoctions it may in vent, or gossip it may rake up out of the rubbish of events in which the people, have no further 'interest. 'We shall 'know the source whence its information is de4eti, and advise it that there are too many salient points in its candidate's record, ready for the use of our friends, to make the experiment either a pleasant or profitable one for it to un dertake.

J. X. for nish„ofolyurren,7sept.- our loyal member: of Congress a challengB tcYcanvhis Warren county together, but the negro aflvecate re fuses to enter the ring, intimating Writ he flies too high.. _Thin is a.cowaraly 4094, worthy - of those Ruitipers-who love the-abgro -above the white man. Scofield is known to be one of the most unscrupulous demagogues around Washington, and devotes three hours of, his time to the interest of the negroes in the Southern States to one he spends in the in terest of the white people of his district. ONE of the main stocki3 in trade of the Radicals is the assertion that if Seymour and Blair - - are elected there will be war. Who, pray, will make the war? If there is any thing ,of the kind it will have to be brought about by the Radical Dlaunionists who alone would have an interest in creating trouble. Duinocrats would not be likely to war upon their own administration, and much less the South. The rebels went to war and failed. The tta - dieils will fail too if they try the same game.ElecfSeymour and we will have pence and tinion 4 inch ns the Re:volutionists fear. War?J The "loyal 4 thieves made so well out of kho iebellion that perhaps they think they can make something by "another war." A LErmn, from Wendell Phillips appears In last - week's Anti•Slacery Standard, in which he repeats his declarations of Grant's incapacity and intemperance. , The follow ing extract, coming from the source it. does, is Mirth }he consideration of the , public : "We have little confidence in Grant. Ile is devoid or any statesman-like instinct.' The nation recognizes him as a tool. Ile has been drunk in Um public streets since Janua ry first. The thct is patent as the noon-day. Only those unfit ho trawled with public journals, hats passing therusiAves off for owls, can deny it. He is our King Log, of our own - choice. The lavishness of labwhood cannot claim any qualities tit him for a leader: , . • Ex-Gov. CURTIN thinks that Pennc.ylvania will,give Grant a heavier majority than was ever - Wire ast tor a Presidential candidate, and that SeymoUr will not get a single North ern State if the tide keeps °wising. He be lieves the vote or Vermont will be the key note of the final result.—Erehange. In so far as Governor Curtin believes the vote of Vermont to be the "key-note of the final result,"he shows himself a man of sense. That is a reduction of the Radical majority in 1804 of over two thousand, and an increase in Cite DemoCratic vote,as com pared with that of 1864., Give us such, key notes at the October elections, and Grant may as well lay in his winter stock on Lis Missouri farm.. Now that the followers of Radicalism have had their spree over Maine, and - nothing can be gnined by keeping uP the delusion, the leaders are beginning to undeceive the dupes - aorto the Maine victory. the Ice)* - roe: Tritnnie "If our vote should fall off like that of Maine,,eight pi''r cent. of the total vote of 1860, we would lose New York by 48,718 majority. Therefore we must do aix per cent: better than Maine, compared with 1800, or we lose the State"-'• Brc. MEETTS6 AT SPATITANSIIIMG.—TIIC Democrats of Spartansburg are arranging to hold a great mass Meeting on Tuesday, Oct.

ERIE, PA., Sept. 30, 1803 Editor Oliserrer :—la the last issues of the Republican and. Dispatch of this city, I no ticed a - communication from the "Irish Re publican Club," over the signature of its ;earthy president, (purporting to be the pro lihcliori of some of Its members, but in reali ty that of the party to whom they crouch in abject servility, in hope of receiving some of the falling crumbs from their political table) in which au attempt is made to deiltme the character of that pbrtion of thelrish - who -vete the Democratic ticket, and more especi ally to injure Any reputation in this commun ity. The- malice in which such calumny is conceived, and thelanguage wl ich clothes it, truly characterize its authora beneath the notice of decent wieldy. I r t the neces je shy which compels me to reply to Mich vile slang, and malignant vituperation, as, "servile herd, votaries of crime, ignorance, intem perance, and Copperheadism," which, in the .communication referred to, hiss been applied without stint to those Irish Ameneari citizens who - propose to vote for Democratic candi dates atthe ensuing elections, but duty to myself and my countrymen constrains me eery reluctantly to hurl back those foul,biase epithets in the teeth of the utterers, as appli cable to them, and them alone. Lest there nifty& tlidso whose Credulity may lead them fo "believe - ibis slander 'oh Irish Democrats, coming as it does from such n' respectable source as the "Irish Republican club" of this city, I propose to show what degree of respee tability,should be attfflted to the members of this so-Callisdlrlshlleriublicah club. Out side the rinks of this diminutive party, it would betill;ticult, if not impossible, to find a wretch • fiefdom:tan 'tbrm so lost to the in stincts of nature and humanity as some of these so-called Irigt Republicans.

This has been done 'by one of the shining lights. of this "Irish (misnomer) Republican club," in one of "Abe most frequented streets of this city; and, yet,he has the effrontery to appear in the garb of innocence and paint hiniself MY' as a dedent member of society. As the minds and acts of youth cannot be too circumspectly guarded against the ad mission of improper ideas, I would recom mend the American youth of this city to take tirirgrvitiftdriUns - ft well- 1 1041M member of this "'lrish Republican Club .

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 ladies, and took you and them right in the face—none of your 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 ruln their constitntions, but also those they do business with or for.
