Poll Pit IiSIDENT,
Gen. - ULYSSES S. GIitANT.
FOIL VICE HIESIUB\T,
If the Republican's do their whole du
ty next Tuesday Grant and Colfax will
carry every northeln Statei We regard
New Yorlt sure felt. Grant, in spite of
the city.
.We are informed by rumor that Mr.
Mackey proposhs to vote for Grant and
Cblfax. .Such, we conceive, would be
frail ineet for repentance. And still
there is room.
• Is It true that Seymour • has declined
again and finally, and•that the immor
tal Nusby is to be substituted in his
place? If so, Deekin Pogram may fair
ly expect to take Blair's place. That
would make,a grand good team for the
Democraey. Nasby Pogram forever !
RepubliCans, avoid all Vain conten
tion's and the use of harsh epithets on
election day. If there be disorder let
the responsibility of its inauguration
- rest-with our oppo ents. Bear and for
,4l*-rAe men intent upon the dig

3d of November be a day of comparative

,places on election days. (
FREEMEN, the hour fcir long argil
._
meats Is past; the time for action is at
hand. Not for an instant should any,
Republican believe that the Democracy
have abandoned the field. They will
never give over their . attempt to grasp
the reins of power until Compelled to
Rio so by the overwhelming reprobation
of their baseness by freemen through
the ballot-box.
A• bare majority will elect Grant; but
a hare majority is riot sufficient for the
salutary effect desirable to be produced.
Red-banded Murder stalks the South
like a destroying demon, rendering the
tenure of life insecure and threatening
to blot out civil law and order in eleven
States. An overwhelming majority
for grant would tend to arrest that red
hand in its deVilish work. For this.
publicans, we must labor. Every
:vote for the Grant eNetore is a rebuke
to,rampant, heaven-defying crime. It
is for the loyal men of the North to ar
rest the career of Murder and lesser vi
olence throughout_ the land. If it be
not done history will hold them respon
bible.
That our opponents are in- the last
stages of desperation is apparent. For
the second time in the history of the
nation a candidate for the Presidency
takes the stu in his own behalf. In
"the former i tance the act war the pre
cursor of 0 erwhelming defeat. In the
present instance.Mr.Seymourpronoun
ces his own political funeral oration a
few days ahead of his political sepul
ture. "Down with the traitor, up with
the Stars I"
-. - Better for this and generations to
come, that the most implacable open
rebel should take the reins of power
•
than that they should fall into the hold
of the timid, conscienceless demagogue
Horatio_SeYmour. The 'cruelest of all
_creatures is a moral coward. Freemen,
we, must send i the rebel candidates to
the rear of the Grand Army of the Un'
lon next Tuesday, under guard, captive
__by lawful sullugatioh, but not to be
starved and poisoned as their rebel
backers starved and poisoned our boys
at Belle Isle, Andersonville, and galls
bury.
_' Bring forward every loyal voter next
Tuesday. We are not work lug for bare
majorities. but for overwhelming ma
jorities. Every_ ballot for Grant and
Colfax is a BULLET SENT STRAIT
TO THE HEART OF MURDER 1 •
Every vote for Grunt is A REBUKE
TO VIOLENCE AND ASS4WSINA
TIONi
Seymour complains that he is charg-
Oi with having been an enemy to his
ciountry, vehich, he protests, he loves
e;seeedingly. So every horse thief' com
plains that he la charged with enmity
to', the rights of property. Horatio's
offending is, that if he did not love hie
country less, lie loved Jeff Davis more.

Probably Mr..Blaix ) .was intoxicated
when he gave utterance: to that infa
mous and atrocious sentiment. But it
is high time' that the better disposed
classes of the, American people set about
making' these threats of assassination
penal crimes. We have no hesitation
in saying that the man who uses such
language should be arrested' and im
prisoned, without privilege of bail, un
til such time as the magistrate taking
cognizance'of the ()Bence shall deem
the offender a tit person to mingle in civ
ilized society.
Mr. Blair is mistaken. The failure of
the Democratic party is not the failure
of the republic. On the contrary, - the
failure of that party wilLaid to save the
republic. , Nor will there be a military
Dictatorship in ease of the failure of
Seymour iS: Blair. Mr. Blair may not be
dismayed ; nd discouraged but he is m ad
dened by the certainity of Ldefeat.—
The true en of the nation will not be
deterred rem doing their whole duty
; 1
by threats of assassination. That is
the talk of a madman: •
The American people must learn to
regard these atrocious threats by vio
lence as indicatiVe.of a spirit which
must be exorcised. -This is an age of
violence ; an ago in which the bad grow
worse instead of better. • Any word
savoring of license to such men must
be rebuked. Francis P. Blair is not
only violent., but vile. Ile is a. besot
ted, evil-tempered man, who, but fur
his failings, inig,lit have won la good
name in the army. -As it is, his mili
tary record is seldom alluded to.
We ask freemen to reflect upon the
passionate declarations of this man
who asks to be made Vice President of
the United States, and turti before it is
too late from his support, Who doubts
the intention of Blair, after reading his
Brodhead letter, with this St. Louis
utterance as a commentary ? This whis
ky-maddened fellow means war, if his
maudlin will can compass it. The peo- •
pie do not mean war, but they alone
can prevent it by hurling Blair back
into the mire in which be originated.
Let no sanguine Republican deceive
himself. The forces of our opponents
were beaten back, dismayed and dis
couraged on the 13th of .october ; but
they were not annihilated. Leo did
not surrender alter Gettysburg. It re
iluired-thel,grand struggle on the Appo
mattox to compel the surrender of the
rebel chiefs and his forces. The politi
‘:ra elvtty4,„ rg vv .,, cars th .7 .19th o-P 0, , --

Tuesday. Arc you'ready
" We give it up," say some of the De
mocracy. Let the marines believe that.
The Democratic party will giVe up the
battle only when forced •to do it, next
Tuesday. We do not suppose many of
the leaders.expect to win ; but-they can
no more help fighting Republican prin
ciples than the devil can help fighting
heaven and its hosts.
Actually, the friends of- Grant & Col
fax are required to put forth new eff
orts, to exercise increased vigilance.
Evil walks while men sleep. If indo
lence or apathy leaves a bar down the
enemy will surely find the gap and en
ter. To work, every man, and let there
be no relaxation of effort until the
votes are all polled next Tuesday.
Tioga County owes GI/ant, the Preserv
er of the nation under Providence, a
majority of 3600. Shall NVe pay our
debts next Tuesday?
We pronounce for paying eslery vote
of that majority, The day is coming
when men will be as proud to say—" I
voted for Grant)" as the old men are
who say " ± voted for Washington!"
Forward, then, to har , :est the fruits
of the splendid victory of Oct. 13. In
fact—it is for the Republicans to say
whether thci contest in October shall be
triumphantly closed in November. , :—

The result in Oceola greatly troubles
the Demoracy. They expected not
less than 35 'Votes in that district, and
received but 9. Oceola gained SEVEN

Take care of your tickets. See that
not less than a third of them are held
in reserve for emergencies. Let no sus

that printed at the head of this column
is a true copy. Look out for Spurious

Gallant Phil. Sheridan sends to the
Boys in Blue greeting, as follows: "Bay
" to the Boys in Blue that it is as es
" senth '

" ell, as it was to have an Appomat
" pomattox in 18U5; atid that every

So says -the gallant Sheridan, and so
say nine-tenths of the gallant Union
leaders every where. Mark,, therefore,
that ninetyznine one-hundredths of the

"Let us have peace!" writes Grant
in his letter of acceptance.
Every man who votes the Grant &
Colfax'Electoral ticket next Tuesday
will endorse that appeal.
"Trample under foot the Reconstruc
tion laws of Congress," " compel the
army to undo its usurpations in the

mit" to the dictum of a Democratic
President—wrote Blair to Brodhead

The t aggregate' vote of this County
Oct. 13, as compared, with that of MOO,
shows an increase of 1042.
Of this increase the Republicans
have 619, and the Democracy 423.
The aggregate vote of the county
in October was 7461. This, allowing
the votes to be as one in six, would in
dicate a population of upward of 44,000.
We judge, therefore, that the census of
1870 will show a population of over 40,-
000, possibly.
So we grow; and Tioga county is des
tined to stand in the front rank of the
rural counties, as she now does as a pro
ducer of butter, cheese, and s stock.—
Roll on the ball.
FREEMEN, ties is a struggle for .the
vindication of Heaven's first Iaw—OR
DER.• As your would bring about an era
of I s eace and national prosperity, so
leave no Republican at home on the 3d
of November.
The time for long speeches and pro
found arguments is past. The judg
ments of men are .convinced, if they
are open to conviction, already :
The result now turns upon watchful
activity. Permit no Republican, to re
main at home on election day. See to
it that the ballot-box be preserved pure
and u ncontam inated..
The simple issue now is shall 'loyal
men rule the destinies of the nation;
or shall we forget that the life of the re
'public,was defended and preserved by
half a million of murtyrs, and suffer
that great sacrifice to' haVe been in
Vain ?
Forward, every man who loves free
idititutions. Let none expect victory
without labor.
When the telegraph' and private in
formation proclaimed that Pennsylva
nia had gone Republican by from 7000
to 10.000, Ohio ditto by 15,000, Indiana
by 3000, and Nebraska by 2000, the Ly
coming Standard raved and ;swore like
a drab, and exhorted its readers not to
believe a Nt'ord of it; and the editor de
clared that, in his opinion, every one of
those States had gone Democratic.
By a late issue of that paper we see
that the editor is in Pittsburg, probably
as a juror in the U. S. District Court in
session at that place. roes such' man
comprehend the nature of an oath? Is
that sort of a man capable of weighing
evidence and making u l p a just verdict?
"Let u t s have Peace!" says GRANT
Next Tuesday the freemen of the natiol
meet at the ballot-box to say " AMEN!)
Look at the bloody record scored up
by the friends of Blair and Seymour
during the past month in the South !.
It is a record of cowardly violence
and assassination. The current history
of that party is a' promise of bush
whacking warfai.e and -- e.ternai nation
to every Union man in the South.

ment of the Republic. *Confided in by
its devotees as the
_guardian of liberty,
it exerted all its energies for the perpet
uity of human bTdage. Professing
reverence for free eech and freedom
of the press, it silenced both with
bowie-knife and revolver wherever it
, had supreme control. Assuming to be
the guardian of the 6 rights of man, it
became the champion of human bon
dage and stood sentinel with baying
blood-hounds to seize and return the
fleeing fugitive ' and at last, dissatisfied
with the result of a fair election,. it
raised its hand, against the life of the
Republic, and Sampson-like,. would
have buried itself in the ruins of the
grandest temple of liberty ever reared
by human hands.
It is befitting that a party scarred by
such a record should die at the hands
of the people whose sense of justice it
has outraged, and whose dearest rights
It has trampled in the dust.
Republicans of the Keystons I Your
brethren throughout the Union - have
watched the struggle throughwhich
you have just passed with intense in

"TANNING HIDES."—One of the best
campaign cuts we have seen this year
is one which represents Grant tanning
the hides or rebel Democrats. He has
his sleeves rolled up, hat off, apron on,
and looks as though he rather enjoyed
the business of tanning the "critters'
hide." Mayor Hoffman of New York,
stands -near, handing over to him Sey
mour and Blair to be operated upon.
In the background Lee, Joe. Johnston,
Hood, Beauregard and others appear,
holding up a paper which reads : This
is to certify that we have had our hides
tanned by U. S. GRANT."
