OUR COUNTY TICKET
We have in this county many 'citizens of,
both political parties who profess to ignore
party lines as they are applied in the selec
tion of county officers. That a blind, un
questioning.'adherence to the dictation of a
few obscure demagogues of the Copperhead
persuasion, hasi to a great extent, filled our
local offices with-creatures sof little or no ca
pacity—whose honesty, to say the least of it;
is not above susploion—cahnot be denied.
Recognizing these facts, the People's Con
vention, which met last week, atermined to
give tire — good — citizens—of—Mother-Cumbe
land an opportunity to reform_ the abuses
which have cursed the administration of our
local government, by presenting to our peo
ple a ticket. composed of men whose names
haveeverbeen synonymous for - integrity and
eapaeity, We point with pride to the result
of their hibors,, and only ask that a careful
comparison of the merits of: the tWo tickets
'be made, Letrvoters but exercise the shale
care in selectingthe men who are to transact
the public business, which they would bestow
upon.Ltbe:sheicoLsif Agents
their own private affairs, and there can be
no doubt of the result.
THE RUPERT'S PARDON---
AGAIN.
When we noticed, two weeks since, the .
pe,rdO'n of these men, and the motives actu
ating ',Gov: CURTIN to grant it, we hadin-`
terraria to oloae uur,case. We had presented
the whole case to our readers, and we felt
assured that with this before them, they
would fully endorse the action of the Gover
nor in the case. Our Democratic friends, on
the contrary, have no desire to let'the mat
ter rest, and what 'inure materially concerns
us, are deterinined that they will use every
possible misrepresentation in order that they,
may more effectually mate capital for their
party. Last week the Volunteer and Demo
crat were joined by the &Wind in their cru
sade against the Governor, and we must say,
that truth and fairness are not at all ad
vanced by the.access on of this, new claina
for blood. It is extremely bard to reply to
three articles in the Hinds usually allotted'
.to an editorial, and it is-espe-i-eIY so when
every line in each is filled with denuncia
thin and mistatement. •We will however
,quote a few prominent statements from the
three as an introduction to what we intend
saying on the subject. We - have publiSlied
"the testirnbny on'the hearing in the Habeas
rwpas; Judge Graham's sentence in full,
and the pardon of the Governor. The en
tire record is therefore before our ,readers,
and they can apply the quotations under-
stitndinkly
The. Volunteer says, that our former arti
cle WM false in' every tine, and that the
Governor's reasons for granting the ;lardy];
are lame and false from beginning to end,
as any fair man will testify to who wag
present at the trial of the murderers. The
ItuPanTs were pardoned because of their
polities, and- the Governor might as well
have said so in plain words,
The Democrat says, all the blame is turned
from the. Governor upon the signors, and the
statements made irt the petition are as con
temptible as fals2.
The Sentinel says, that the jury was com
posed of a majority of their politician friends
and that Andrew G. Curtin is making a'
farce of justice in Pennsylvania •; and if this '
iNte - tiitzleis kiffortid tc - centintie, end:
he can rid-the jaile at.pleasnre of- his politi
cal friends, as he does almost every week, it
will be useless to have courts and juries, and
mon will go prepared to defend themselves.
As to tho -recital in the 'pardon that " tho
deceased was shot while endeavoring to es
cape, after he had been arrested ; and whilst
in the act of drawing a pistol in resistance to
lawful authority," wo have simply to say
thatofch was iwt the testimony in court.
Novi . gentlemen as you' have no hesitation
to - use any sort of an epithet - in - speakinTer
those who aro your opponenth; you will par
don us for
,making a few plain statements
and calling things by their, right names. --*
Our statement of the actions of VASASDLEN
previous to the time of his death, his &ger.:
tions, :his dePredations in the community
where ho lived, his evading and resisting'the
officers who went to arrest him, and his
firing at and shooting Xing when he at
tempted to napture him, and his boasts that
he would. never -be etoured, and that he
would shoot anyone who attempted to take'
him, is true to the letter,: and those who , say
it is, false are simply lying, and that know
ingly. Jukes false and unfair is the asser
tion that the' Governor pardoned . them on
account of their polities. He pardoned them
on ageount of_theppresentations contained
in the petition, which If they were true,
were a 'sal:Mkt - it giound for pardon'. Were
they true The'Denwerat says, they 'were
as contemptible, as false. We ; would suggest .

almost li:hundred more equally worthy citi

that are either false, or contemptible. In
fact,;ivhile ye are nut inclined to question
the veracity of the Donocrcit editors, we are
free to:say,thitt the community would quite
es soon believe that _they m4de statements
that were.as false and contemptibWas they

'so. What did the petition allege? There,
is nothing cavilled at except the allegation
as to the fairness of the' rial: How 'could a

erat. The very ap(Aogy thaVcomes so read
ily from the pens of these editors, that a
majority'of the jury were RUPERTS' friends
politically; is a tacit admission that hi the
minds of others there might be an undue
prejudice against theirs. And why ia,such
a falsehood coined as .tins Z 'Will some one
run over the records of our courts and find
one Mai a jury within , the last four years..
The desire. on the part of many of the jiir
rors to sit on this case and the. digaipoint ,

that in pie minds of a very large portion of
the community a verdia: 7 had been deter

Indeed therois the affidavit of a respectable'
citizen that at least one of the juirors who
sat on tic case had expressed in his presence
an opinion that ••Rtif , Earr should be hung."
It was offered in evidence that VANAsoLEN
had a pistol ,on-his_perso_m_and_thatlie_placed-'
his sand Under his coat as if to draw it, but
this testimony was ruled out by the court.
As to the assertion that a majority of the
jury -were thp political friends. of the, de

of the falsehoods which . the VoPorleer al
ways coins when it needs something else
than vituperation to make ifs articles eine:
Live. It is so . transparent a: lie, that even
the author is ashamed to repent it. How
ever it haS accomplished its purpose and we
find it going the rounds' of all our Demo
cratic exchanges. The truth is there-weren't
more than two men'on the jury Who, even
pretended to be tiny - thing else than Demo
crats'. But it is needless to pursue the sub
ject further, and we will uot,comment again
on. the trial.
There is just one thing to nliidh wo wish --
to call attention in ilisconnection;.and then
we are done, Whoa we printed inn. article
'justifying the action of • GoV. Curtin, we
published also at the same time, the remarks.
of Judge Graham, pronouncing the

to arrest him or even of his resistance and
escape in this instance. The fact of the kil
ling and the after occurrences are given in
such a manner as ,to cause the impression
that the homicide was committed without
the slightest provocation or without tiny ex
tenuating circumstances. From reading
.their statements we would necessarily infer
that a peaceful, orderly, unotfending citizen
had been shot down by the ItueEtiTs
delib

state simply the whole facts of the occur.

Assess the Soldiers
One of the most important duties, says the
Harrisburg • Telegraph,'devolving upon the
different Ward, Township and County Com
mittees, throughout the State, is' that of
properly and fully assessing the soldiers , in
each . of the election districts. The absence
of the soldier from his home,"and his ac-
piked right in the meantime to. vote in the
field, rendered it unnecessary to embrace his
name in the IIOW assessments made di4ri
the war. • In addition to this, many of The
soldiers have changed their residences, by
which re-assess mun beco mes necessary: The
33th of September, ensuing. is the limit of
the time appointed ibr these, assessments.—
This is a very short period for the perfor
miyhce.,Of such an important duty, and the
therefoie 'earnestly urge our friends in the
,various election districts at once to collect a
lista all unasSeiiSed soldiers as well as citi
zens, and have thee names placed on the
proper duplicates. Every , returned y aldi cr
mast be assessed, or he will forfeit his vote !
trZ—The Democrat maunders this week
about the failure 'of the Republican party to
make good its pledges to the soldiers, by giv
ing thein'the 'public offices. It calls the
nominations of soldiers on our county ticket,
empty honors, because it says there is no hope
of electing them.
Now if we are hot mistaken, the Demo
crat' d; party has alviaysrvieizded as least as
much regard for the soldier as any other ;
and we understand that paper to claim that
a—count-y_nominativith:them..is always'
equivalent to an election. If-we are correct,
is not the fact .that the Democratic• ticket
this fall doss licit' "Ci3iftiiih the name of any

the operations of our sinking-fund vstep,'
without any additional taxation, at least
81,000,000 of our State debt will be paid.

because it illustrates bow readly the grow
ing wealth of a community practically di
minishes the burden of governmental in
debtedness. Twenty-five years ago it was
feared that our people would be. crushed by
the.tiabilities of our State, and. repudiation
found some Open advocates. Now, our State
debt is not seriously considered as onerous
by a single citizen, and it is gradually being
paid without ven iene.: to our' people.
OunFlNANcEs.—The Treasury Depart
ment does not anticipate raising any money
before the coming session Of Congress. The
_receipts from. Internal Revenue alone, from
July let to the let of SeptenVier, will proba
bly amount to one hundred and ten millions
of dollars, while there be no falling off
of custom duties, as hen% y orders for for
eign goods are - known to have gone abroad
for. supplying the exhausted marketi of the
South gad West. The receipts from the
sidilof war Material; now no longer nece3-
sary, will. also contribute in no small degree
to the liquidation of the public debt.

• In the strong democratic counties of this
state, such 'as Berks,,Schilyikill; York, &c.,
the democracy lire careful not to nominate
soldiers for qilice. Their 'sympathy for. the
-soldier b shown only in, counties and states
where they have little: or no chance of suc
cess. rn Now Jersey they haN;ii indeed, put
up a ,f 'General" for Governor; but he tuttis
out to have been a "General" only in the
three months scrVice, and a stay-at-hoMn
duling the war. •
As to the kind of soldiers nominated by
them, th6y. invariably try to find such as
wore rot remarkable - for their loyalty.—
Thus in Ohio they are running Gen. Goo;
- ,Morgan for Governor, :whose militiiry
achievements May bo summed up in his sur
render of and-retreat from Cumberland Gap
in 1802: As the government ( - id not want
any other important points given tsp to the
rebels without tlin:' , Use of gunpoWder, Gen..
Morgan was not balled "again-n--to-thallold,_
and he naturally drifted into the Vallendig
ham Democracy and stumped the State' last
year to prove that the war wasn "failure."
, We are reminded of thiS more particular-'
ly by the nomination of Gem Patrick on the.
democratic state ticket in New York. If
we aro not miaaken, this is the same Gen.
Patrick who distinguished himself in. Rich-
Mond, not many months since, by...reviving
the old proslavery rule over the negroes,
pressing them in every possible waY and sub
jecting thorn. to imprisonment find torture,
Order-the old and extinct laws Of
cruelty to -the negroes was so great that;
the government was 'compelled to ;remove .
him, and now he finds his proper' place upon

Thus they loSt their slaves, their inules

The State of Ohio is ours by conquest from

two things :,First,: that'Wiri• Was an MI- .

known to and .approved bpi the Confederate

'But our purpose in commencing this arti

timony brought, out at this trial as to call'
attention to a:Striking - item of corroborative

she covered her eyes with horror, and turned
away, and -sought refuge beyond -the limits
of the place. where nought could be seen but
,‘‘roan's inlntinartity to man." She saw half

stockings, standing upon the:frosty ground,
and occasionally would lift their 'feet, goose
like, and wrap them in the tattered rags
that hung about their person, and press their
feet close to the body for.its wii)mth to shield

There is no need to comment on thi - S evi
