    constituents, vote down the senatorial repre
sentativesof New York,Pentsylvsnia, Ohio.
Illinois, and Indiana, gained their power ovc r
the South and over us because they minis
tered to passions in the North and stirred op
disorder in the South. No fair-minded,
thoughtful Republican wilt calmly siedown
and look over this action and not feel that
the policy of his party has been unwise sus
' hurtful.
During the mogress-of the war r na
tional difficulty grew up whichexcit( l l alarm
in the minds ot thmmlitful men. It Wag
-
found, as our debt rolled up it; sliest voltnne,
- that the tiorernmeint bonds weir taken in
the northern Atlantic States, and oils I.
was thus divided into debtor mid 'creditor
States. This is a perilous relationship, It
could not well be avoided ; but the evil would
have been mitigated it then had teen a wise
and econonical administration shoold
h rve kept down the volume of indebtedne-s.
But the men in power saw tit to do another
thing. They drove out of esistenee, by heavy
taxation, the cruse:rev of till State banks.
They thus grasped the exclusive power of is
suing paper money to the holders. of Govern
ment bonds—the, privilege of issuing batik
bills under aimt is known as our national
banking system. This Is as a privilege ~r
enormous value. I will not stop tow to di--
cuss the wisdom of that sr-tem f.loyer
nor of, this state, I vetoed a law nuthorizina
our banks to organize under that system, be
cause 1 saw, as ;far back as lqttg, that it ha
perilled the futnre harmony or our 1 - nion.
'The _point to which I wish to call aor I at
tention is the unwise and 'lulu:I manner in
which this gre'at privilege was distributed.
Wise men woul-1 look to see how it sonl.l be
given out so as to minister to the general
prosperity of our country. But; ressardless
of all this, this great monopoly was, given td
the first comeis., These set e mainly from
the old .and h States which had been en
abled to take up tho Government bonds.
T,;hus, not only our dept but our can
MIS sectionalized. While the State of Massa
chatsetts, with about 1,1.0,000 Mhabitants.
has shout 07,00D,0nn of this currency, ths - t of
. Illinois, with twice that population, has less
than $10,000,000. In this state tit Rhode
Island, They have about 'S'ztO to each Inhabi
tant, while in Illinois, 7.‘lichinn, Wi , eonsin
and other we-tern States they have only
about SS. It so much currency is good tor
. Massaeliusetts, why is it not a
.gOO,l thin. tor
the west? [Cheers.]
But the injustice of this elistilbutioo
the least of the evils which grew out or this
lick of foresight and of statesmanship. It i ,
no answer to say in justification of this -
quality that the west had as ~s od a ( i sm , to
get this privilege :list ss the other States.
This was • •
nut a matter to Jess o to cisince.
The 'western States were rim ism n in a comli
• than to .steme this climates for the. Niers
J.2ason that they must neede:d ti. ti the rule
of proportion was to be disreg.osisd. hslsonld
haVe been done in la \of or the N ery state,
that now have the smallest shares It was the
duty of wise statesmanship to st e that the
ciirrency was given w here it could be ot the
greatest service to the public. It may be
asked if the west was not tilde to lake bond;
how they could avail themselves of this priv
ilege? if this action had been reversed, and
flily-seven millions had been given to the State
o: Illinois, and eight millions had been given
to the State of Mss-nchusetts, which would
be much more lair than the present di- tiller
ton, the people of Illinois could not bate
tablished these banks; but the capitalist, o!
New England :ma New Volk would gladly
have established bank, iu the-e States, Mr the
sake of the advantagis there offered. Now
this would not only has e heen more fair, as
-:ray - one sees; but it would ,have avoided a
great evil to which I %N ill call your attention.
And in considering this, I shall not go so far
as to say that any State should here less than
its due share, the people of the north At
lantic States, who hold about two-thirds or
this curreucy, du nut need this amount
for their business purpo•cs. Their modes of
conducting business do not require this form
of credit. Formerly the banks of the city of-
New York did dot deem it worth w bile to is
sue notes for circulation. We /ICON see that
at certain seasons of the yesr they send cur
rancy te the west to bring for mid the crops..
When it is not needed for these purpese °, it
is accumulated in vast sums in the cities of
New York, Boston and Philadelphia, where,
as it is not wanted for regular hirsiusss pur
poses, it is used to promote unhealthy and
demoralizing speculations. is. we turn our
attention to the great
,agricultural States ot
. the west, we find that they do need cur
rency in their business transactions and that
they suffer great es ils and losses kur the want
slit. What is now going on over all of those
great regions? It is necessary for the wel
itre of our country and for the health and
comfort of our people that the wheat, corn,
beef and pork of the west should be sent to
market, not only to feed our own people, but
-by its sale in foreign lands, to pay the inter
est on our debt and the snicks we purchase
abroad. This is the first great financial ne
tessity of-our country. To do this the hest
commercial paper is that which is made for
ibis object. It is partible at the commercial
Centres, at short dates. It has not only an
acceptor at the east but is fortified by a bill
of sale of the very property which is bonght
by its proceeds. Why is it that this commer
cial paper, made for purposes sn essential
and meritorious• so amply seemed and hav
ing about it every feature which should com
mand credit, cdrunnuids the monstrous inter
est of 11 to 12 per cent?' This is a vital ques
tion, affecting the weltare of every citizen of
our laud. There is a great wrong here, at
the very basis of our business prosperity, and
affecting the personal interests of all our citi
zens. When the western dealer in produce
goes to the banker of Chicago, Milwaukee,
Toledo or other commercial centres of the
west, and offers a draft payable at a short
date in an eastern city of undOubted credit,
to get the currency to buy the, wheat, beef,
pork or wool of the western farmer, he is
charged this monstrous interest, aud w hen he !
objects that it is ruinous and unjust,
told.tat the banker can do no better, hthat
he has nu currency of his own ; that he can•
not get it for himself; that the whole volume
authorized by congress has been taken up
mainly in the eastern states; that - in order to
get this currency he, the banker, mint go to
- the east and borkow ititurd must pay un inter
est for its use, and he must then charge all
that interest and another interest as a com
pensation for himself
"Then," says the borrower, " I feel that I
must pay interest to two bankers. Is it right
that Rhode Island, or Msssachusetts, or New
York should have the share of currency
which belongs to • our western states? Are
not we, the citizens of the west, kreedisrpay
to - these eastern states interest upon the cur
rency which rightfully belongs to us? If
must pay you, the banker of the west and the
banker of the cast, ten to twelve per cent. in
terest, when I ought to pay but one-half tliat
amount, I must take it out of the pricewhich
I pay to the fanner for- his produce." Now,
all this is true, and here i; a great wrong
which tends to produce botweeu
the States—a jest:l4l,y of the creditor states,
and 'a sense of stnnry which hovers over the
untionai credit,
This unwise distribution of the currency
ties at - tho foundation of much of the feeling,
iricertain sections of our country, against the
bondholders. It is no unnsual thin 7 to see
It stated in the 'papers of !Aide:lgo and other
western cities that the r_rain market is
checked for the want of that cur - renew whit's
rightfully belongs to that section. Not only.
is the farmer thus paid a lower price forths
produce, but the carriers upon our lakgssind
canals, and the whole commoree of cm. count- .
try, internal anti foreign;. are injusq by this
lack of foresight on the part or "orrulers,
[Applause:]
. But the evil does not sto? Istise Wire u the
currency has been used to place our ag,ritul
turd products in the :nitrites; of the east, and
is no longer needed tor these purposes, it
plies up in vast yolsmes in the cities of New°
York and Boston (hiring the winter mouths.
Those who hold h ,re impatient to have it
profitably employed. They invite farmers to
use it kr purposes that end in those wild aud
demoralizing speculations which have done
so much to corrupt the morals and' destroy
those habits of industry which will storm
Enke a people truly prosperous, -
Not unfrequently it is Used, alSo, to tinytui
again the beet, pork, fluor and grain in the
hands of eastern holders and in the ware
houses of our commercial cities ; and to Pat
up prices of these against the laboring poor,
the toiling mechanic, and the consumer 01 .
the east—in this way, too, checking th e ex
portation abroad, and defrauding the ,com
merce of the entire country.
Now, if with wise statemanship under this,
same national banking system, care had been,
taken to place this capital where it was need
ed, the share which would have been given
tt , the western states would never have re
mained idle or have been employed for hurt
ful' purposes. There would always have
been uses for that capital-there,which would
have promoted prosperity and-advanced the
healthy enterprises of our great and growin i g
communities.
'This error of our rulers is attended by ,
other great evil. There was no provision
made for the south—no care taken to revive
its prosperity, so that its people might aid in
' advancing the common prosperity of our
laid. It is for our interest as well as theirs
that their pu tits should again be made
- prosperous.
We find tha hiss error in the distribution
of our curren4 is cursing our business with
enormous rates of interest. - It lessens the
prices which the farmer gets for his produce,
Mjures our carriers, and harms' both our dot
Meade and foreign commerce. This great
flagrant, national evil should have been cor

the popularity of Senator Ilendricks, who

Among the successful candidates is Ron. D.

election in Indiana is a Democratic gain of
120 in St. Joseph county, the home of Schuy
ler Colfax, showing that his name has not the
magical power over the people of his lirali

Colorado, after a long and suspicious pe
riod of delay, is at last declared to have cho
sen a Radical delegate to Congress, and the
same party will have control of the Territo
rial legislature. West Virginia is claimed by
both sides. but it looks to us as if the Radi

ably won all three of the Congressmen, with
a majority of the Legislature. The Democ-

BONDS AND LOCAL TAXATION
The Cazette copies an editorial from the
Observer. showing the injustice which
e 1 new to local tax-paY:ers from the exemp
tion of the bonds, as illustrated by the state
of laiirs in Waterford borough and town
ship,,Lind comments upon it as follows:
"The full tax rate in Waterford is,about
3 1-2 per oent. This produces a tax on the
aid $217,14.2 valuation of $7,600. But this
property is really valued at $1,704.758. Now
the $320,000 bonds pay an income tax of $2,-
2-10—so that while their full value Is but one
filth the other property, they pay one-third
as heavy a tax. Tel the Observer says the
bonds are not taxed. Just apply the demo
cratic platform plan of " equal taxation of
every species of property at its full Value," to
all the property holders of Waterford—es
tate, bonds, and all—and the bonds will pay
$l,lOO tax instead of s2,24o—is just one-half
as mneh as now."
The writer of this paragraph did not lake
the pains, to inquire into the facts, or lie wil
to mislead his readers.
In estimating the income tax for the bonds,
he counts them in a lump, and gbes upon
the inference that they pay a revenue as if
they were all held by one individual. Even
admitting this to bC true, whin it Is not, the
iiittres arc . inaccurate. The only way in
which the bonds arc taxed at-all is.npon the
Interest, from which the Government deducts
five per cent. where the party. has an income
exceeding a thousand dollars. The whole
amount of interest on $320,000, at six per
cent., is $10,200, on whieh the Government
tax, supposing them to be held collectively,
would be $2OO, or $OBO less than the Gaz
ette states. This tax, be it remembered, goes
entirely to the Federal government, and does
not help the local treasury in any shape
-whatever.--The bonds-yield no revenue for
local purposes, and if nine-tenths of the prop
erty in Waterford was invested in Govern
ment securities, the-burden of keeping up the
roads and schools, and all necessities of a
nature, Ivould Lace to - be Intrrie by the
remainder. • t
But, !,p far from the bonds yielding even
the small income tax hero stated, the truth
is that they paynone ai all. We are informed
that the books in the Internal Revenue office
do not show the 'name of a single person In
Waterford who reports an income sufficient
ly large to cent under the operations of the
Federal tax provisions. These. '320,000 of
bowls are held by different parties, and there
are not enough in the hands of any one per
son to render him liable to the income tax. I
Thus a man may have $15,000 in bonds, the
income on whichis t. 900. The amount lacks
*llOO of that which the acta of Congress al
low to be ekempted, and escapes all liability
to Federal, State, countror • township taxa
tion. Wo have been cited to several instan
ces in that township where wealthy parties'
sold their property, invested the proceeds in
bonds, and now rejoice in their safety from
the ilisagrceable calls of the tax-collector.
Qyery patriotic, individual, whose ",loy
tyTs so profuse that it well nigh extidei
through the pores of his body, boasts of be

ONE MORE EFFORT.
In October, 1840, the State of Pennsylva
nia elected Democratic officers by as large a
majority, when the total is considered,
as she gave to the Republicans In • the late
election. Nevertheless, the Whigs carried it
•for General Harrison for President immedi
ately after in November. The Whig candi
date for Governor of Ohio was elected at
the State election in October, 1848; but at
the Presidential election in Noveitber fol
lowing, Ohio gave R majority of 18,000 for
Cass and Butler, the Democratic candidates
for President and Vice President In 1856,
the Republicans elected Colonel Hisseli Gov
ernor of Illinois over William ,A.ltiehardson
by a large majority, yet the Democrats car
ried its Presidential vote for Mr. Ildchanan.
These facts show • that the State elections
which immediately precede the choice of a
Resident are not an infallihlninacx to the
popular verdict in November.
We have too mach respect for our political
friends to deludetbetninto a feeling of con
fidence-whiclfis not jiistlfted by the - facts. It
would be idle tcedeny that the result of the
late elections renders the prospects of suc
cess less encouraging than they appeared a
month ago. Still, the reversals of the popu
lar judgment which hare taken place before,
prove conclusively that a defeated party in
October may retrieve its fortunes in Novem
ber, and might to inspire it at least with a
determination to made the effort.
The Radical majority in Pennsylvania is
so small, when the total vote is considered,
that a trifling change in each election dis
trict would blot it out of existence. It was
won' by an unscrupulous use of money, by
throwing out thousands -of legal. voters in
Radical districts, and by a general systein of
fraud and deception. We , now Understand
their tactics, and know how 'to check-mate
them. Their money is expended and can
not be replenished, the foreigners whom they
disfranchised have made sure of their votes'
in November, and their colonized men from
other States will be needed at home. They
have done the best of which they are capa
ble, while the Democracy have a reserve
force that can yet be made, by judicious and
energetic effort, to turn the fate of battle.
We believe that it is a possible thing to
still carry the State, in spite of the Radical
success at the late trial. The simple and un-.
palatable truth is, that we are defeated be- .
cause our vote was out less fully than that
of our enemies.' The opposition polled their
entire strength, while in every. locality We
hear of hosts of Democrats who remained at
home under the delusion that it was an un
important election, and that they would be
rendering their whole duty- by voting for
President. If we can secure the three hun
dred and Awenty-one thousand votes cast on
the thirteenth Inst., with those that still re
main, the state is ours as Inevitably us the
rising and setting of the sun.
The Democratic party is one of invincible
courage and perseverance. Defeat may
cause It disappointment, but neither weak
ens nor discourages it. We meet none who'
are not ready to buckle qn the armor gal
lantly as ever,'and to 'concentrate our ener
gies for one more heroic struggle. Pass the
word along the lines; then, and have each
man ready for duty on Tuesday next. The
time has come to test the mettle we are made
of. Let it not be said that a transient reverse
has lindens forget the duty we owe to our
selves anti to our cause. The true patriot Is
bravest when obstacles thicken most around
him. A firm, united, vigorous onset must
be made, from one end of the column to the
other, and if we fail this time, our colors will
still he retained, our ranks unbroken, and
everything in good shape for the next call to
-battle.
lltqr.trcnits from. San Francisco give a

few exceptions, and the negroes aie l peacea

or influenced by carpet-baggers. Nothing is
calculated to do greater harm than the dis

extensiVe than he ever had any idea of, and

DERF:SB TO THE
DEBILITATED,
whom sufferings have been protracted from
hidden causes, and whose cases require prompt
treatment to render existence desirable: If
you arc suffering, or have suffered, from invol
untary discharges, what effete, does It produce
upon your general health? Do yotl feel weak,
debilitated, easily tired? Does a little extra
exertion produce palpitation of the heart?
Does your liver, or urinary organs, or your kid. '
net'sfrequently get not of order? Is you r urine
sometimes thick, milky or flocky, or Ls it ropy
on settling? Or does a thick scum rise to the •
top? Or Ls a sediment at the bottom atter it
has stood awhile? Do you have spells of short ,
breathing or dyspepsia? Are your bowels con
stipated! 17a you have spells of fainting, or
rushes of blood to the head! Is your memory
impaired? Is yonr mind constantlyilwelling
upon this subject Ito you feel dull, listless,
moping tired of company, of life Do you '
wish to me left alone, to get away from every
body ? Does any little thing make you start or
jump? Is yu leep broken or restless ?
the Insire of youreye as brilliant T The bloom
on your cheek es bright Do yon enjoy your
self in society as well? Do you pursue your
business with the same energy! Do you feel
as much confidence in yourself! Are your
spirits dull and flagging, given to fits of melan
choly? If so, do not lay it to your IR=.r or dys
pepsta. Have you restless nights? Your hack
weak, your knees weak, and have hnt little ap
petite, and you attribute this to dyspepsia or
liver complaint.
Now, reader, self-abuse, venereal diseases
badly entsbi, and sexnal excesses, are all capa
ble of producing a weakness of the generative
organs. .TllO organs of generation, when In
perfect health, maketho man. Did you ever
think that those hold, defiant, energetic, perse
vering, successful business men are always
those whose generative organs are In perfect
health? Yon never hear such men complain
of being melancholy, of nervousness, or palpl- ,
Wien 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 ladies, and look:: 1
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
.garts inflated by running to excess. These will
not only ruin their enlist itutions,but Illsn those !
thee do business with or for.
flew many, men, from badly cured diseases,
from the °fleets of self-alam and excesses, have
brought about that state of weakness In those
organs that has reduced the general system so
much 119 to induce almost every other disease—
idiotcy, lunacy, paralysis, spinal affections,
suicide and almost every other form of disease
that flesh is heir to, and the real cause of tile
trouble scarcely ever suspected, and have doe- !
tored for all but the right one.
Ekt.eases 01 these organs require the use of a
Diuretic. HEI.MBOLD'S FLUID EXTRACT
BUCHU is the great Diuretic, and Is a certain
cure for diseases of the Bladder, Kidneys, Grav
el, Dropsy, Organic Weakness Female Com
plaints, General Debility, and aildiseases of the
'Urinary Organs, whether existing in Male or
Female, from whatever cause originating, and
no matter of how long standing.
.
If no treatment is sublaitted to, Consmnp - -
lion or Insmity may ensue. Our flesh and
blood are supported from these sources, and the
health and happiness, and that of posterity,
depends upon prompt um , at n reliable remedy.
