Some writers contend that it is

not, but that it arises, or is genera

which, whomsoever it touches, when
the system is in a certain condition, is
certain to get it Sonic say that it is
a Providential scourge, direct ; others
say that it is a Providential scourge
only in this, that people should nut
allow the accumulaVon of filth to
produce the certain state of the at

and when they allow filth to accumu

A writer says of the disease: "In
general it attacks suddenly, with a
chill, pain in the head, back and
limbs, and occasionally with nausea
or vomiting. The eyes appears red,
and inflamed, and frcl hot and pain
ful ; the pupils are sometimes dilated,
but more generally contracted. The
chill is commonly of very short du
ration ; as it goes off, the pulse be
comes, in general, full and quick, the
6kin hot and diy, the face flushed, the
eyes red and watery. The face has
an expression similar to that of a per
eon intoxicated. There is a great
oppression and tightness at the pit
of the stomach, with constant rest
lessness ; the bowels are costive, the
tongue wLite and coated, or of a
bright red color. The heat of the
skin and pains in the head and limbs
augment rapidly during the first
thirty-six hours, and then gradually
decrease, so that at the end of the
third day there is either a very great
remission of the symptoms or they
are again renewed, and succeeded by
pain and a sense of burning in the
btoaiach, constant nausea, with efforts I in javor oj vrming
to vomit, discharging at first only a j " trjJof our Government from tkt
thick green mucus. The pulse isnds of the Jiloy Power, and. Vonp-
now smalL ouick and irranilar. tr,
stomach 6oro to the touch, the bowels j
costive or griped, and the tongue
brown and dry. The symptoms rap
idly increased, until at length the
tense of heat and pain in the 6tomach
cease, and vomiting of a black flaky
matter, resembling coffee grounds,
takes place. The patient now often
feels quite easy, thinks he is getting
better, rises out of bed and walks
about, but 6oon becomes exhausted,
and falls into convulsions or into a
state of lethargy, terminating in
death. Some patients become coma
tose, and die without a struggle ; in
others death is preceded by the dis
charge from the mouth, nose and
ears, of a dark-colored blood. The
skin of most patients becomes of a
bright yellow color before the black
vomit occur 8. In some instances,
which terminate fatally, there is no
vomiting of black fluid at any period
of the disease.
The most common symptoms are
attended with carbuncles, buboes
tbe swelling of the glands of the arm
pits and groin and swelling of pa
rotid glands the glands below and
before the ears. In some, the men
tal and bodily powers are not at all
repaired. Thus pereons have been
known to die of the disease, who,
until the moment of death, have
walked about and attended to their
ordinary avocations."
The Democracy, Communists, and
others, who call the United States
bondholders, bloated bondholders,
have created the impression in the
country that the rich people of the
country are the people who own the
National securities. People who have
given the subject attention, recently,
say that the real rich men of the
country, as a rule, have not invested
largely in the kind of bonds men
tioneiL - -
What will the average Democrat
do with Judge Black, now, since he
savs of ex President Grant: 44 Mr.
Grant, in his personal character, is
the most upright President we have
had for forty years. There was steal
ing p'I around him, bnt not a penny
could ever be traced to him. Almost
'alone he stands tmsicged, the only
person who could stand the heat of
the fiery furnace."
Keaeket sajs this government and
all its enactments are' a fraud, that
i the poor people have no choice in it
! To a certain degree his ignorance is
excusable, he being a foreign Irish
man, who has not yet learned that
the institutions of this country are so
adjusted that all the avenues to busi
ness, pleasure and office are open
alike to all He has not jet learned
that most of the people that he calls
thieves, plunderers, cut-throats, were
once as poor as there is any need fof.
Thomas Scott, President Lincoln,
Benjamin Butler, Ana1 Packer, and
other well known public men, as well
as millions of others in business
tnrouguout tne country, were once
poor men. lnese names are men
tioned only to illustrate that Kearney
U wrong in his views, and that the
prominent men of this country be
long to the poor of the land
they spring from that class of peo
ple, and when Kearney condemns
them he indirectly condemns his own
set. If the agitator isn't careful he
will lose cast among his people, for
when he calls every poor man, who
by his business ability succeeds in
acquiring means, a thief and cut
throat, they will disown him.
Kearney is right in taking issue
with wrong ; he should oppose it in
all its forms, but his mistake is in
assuming that our system of govern
ment is not right. If this govern
ment gives all men alike, opportu
nities, and the opportunities are
abused, it is not the fault of the sys
tern ; it is the fault of the people who
abnse their rights. If a poor lwy
comes up from the office boy to the
Presidency of a railroad, or bank, or
government office, or from poverty
to a man of means, and is a cut
throat, or a thief, it is not the fault
of the system that developed him ;
the fault is in the man.
Tue Democrat and Register has said
nothing tbat has so intensified tbe .Re
publican party, as its charge that tbe
return judges changed the returns in
V ill's back-room, and its ebarge,
through the CarlUIe I'oluntetr, that tbe
Crawford County System is productive
of drunkenness.
As regards tbe first ebarge, it is pro
nounced a false charge, one tbat the
judges will call tbe paper tbat made it,
" 800UDt fof
It is a slander on
it does not
specif? any dingle judge or member,
but takes tbem as a whole. It is pre
sumed that tbe Democrat and Register
has honor enough to apologize lor a
mistake or false ebarge, or come for
ward and prove its declarations. The
day fur malignant journalistic lying in
Juniata has pavsed. Tbe journalist
who makes a mistaken, or false charge,
must rectify the mistak1!, or prove the
charge, or take a place Among black
guards. If tbe Democrat and Register
has been misinformed, let it make the
honorable statement that such is the
cae ; it will do itself justien by doing
so. If it knows its charges to be cor
rect, let it prove tbem, and dj itself
and all others justioe. Meanwbu 'be
jldgd will be heard from.
Lntil lney
ire Prov,;n Sni,tJ. the "barge must
looked npoti and branded as a LIE, as
Mr. ickorsham, one of tbe judge,
cal'.s it.
If there is anything that should solid
ify the Republican, and cause tbem to
fortwear every thirg that has tbe faint
est taint of the work of the Delegate
System, as frustrated in tLe late Dem
ocratic convention, it is such unsup
ported charge.
As to which people were most moved
by tbe corrupting iufluenoe of drink, it
is not necessary to say a word, for there
is oo concealment of tbe workings of
whisky ; it always speaks for itself,
and the people hereabouts saw its man
ifestation. Few people, now living in
tbis town, ever saw such a soaked
crowd as tbat which assembled to wit-
I nesa tbe wcrk of tbe Demooratio county
convention under tbe operations of the
old delegate system. Of course a cer
tain percentsge of tbem were not caught
in tbe seething whirlpool.
The National-Greenback Labor peo
ple advertise a meeting, by poster, to
be held in the Court House, in tbis
place, next Monday evening. It calls

nouoce.s
tne speakers, chief among
whom is Mr. C. C. North, agatnst whom
as a gentleman nothing is to be said, tut
his name at tbe head of a movement
against tbe .Money Power and against
Monopolies chunot belp provoking a
; huge smile, for if any people in central
Pennsylvania are chiefs among tbe
Money Poirer, among tbe buuks, they
are tbe Norths. How mny banks tbey
are connected with, they can best tell ;
and it not only provokes a smile, but it
seems like a moustreus funny joke tbat
tbey should be tbe chiefs in a move
ment against Corporations, when they
are among tbe agents of the greatest
Corporation known in this Common
wealth. Tbe Republican party is the
only safe greenback party. Support
its nominees and yon make no mistake.
Ix last week's issue of the Senti
nel and REPfRLiCAN, the head-line in
tended to announce that John Bals
bach, Esq., had been chosen Repre
sented Delegate to the next Republi
can State Convention, read Senatorial
Delegate. It was a typographical
mistake. He is the Representative
Delegate.

POLITICAL NOTES.
raoH EXCHANGES.
General Grant seems to be winning
more laurels than Charles Francis
Adams as the much nominated man.
Every Greenback county conven
tion held in this State was presided
over by a Democrat.
The Colorado Greenbackers boldly
advocate repudiation. And they don't
care who knows it
Out west when any one advocates
the re-nomination of Tilden they call
it "a clear case of body-snatching."
Kearney, with Butler's assistance,
has apparently successfully stranded
But!er beyond reach of the Demo
cratic nomination for Governor of
Massachusetts.

coined into political capital Mr.
Dill is not a member of the church.
but now finds it profitable to attend
camp-meetings and gather with the
brethren at cJiurcb. We are rather
glad something has induced him to
go to church, but he somehow re
minds us of the yonng man who went
courting with his father's old love-
letters.
If Kearney goes on this way much
longer, he is likely to do more for the
revival ot the Know-Nothing party
than Judge Key has ever done to
resurrect the old Whigs.
