    Wh . o is Pershing,
The Democratic party present to the
State 'Mr. Cyrus L. Pershiwr as a ean
dlidate. for the Supreme hunch. On that
party, its press and leaders, rests the
reiponsibility of telling the people who'
this Mr. Pershing is. t+
Common rumor rays that he I a re
speetablo young man of ac.erage talent
for a Pennsylvanian who all.‘ a:,76 voted
with his party: 4 - low the I n•inocratie
party voted during the war is not and
never will be forgotten. But .the peo-
IA) are not • satisfied with a juvenile
partisan, however smart - or however
faithfully he may have kept in the
ranks.
- On behalf of the people of the Com
monwealth of Penn:lir:min we ask
the Democratic party for information.
Has Mr. C. L. Pershing ever tried a
ease before a jury unassisted ? Give US
.the caption, with the utniber and term.
'How in an y suits ha. Mr. C. L. Persh
ing already argued he ore the court in
which he is now ambit, ous of a seat?
Is Mr. C. L. Pershing known in
Cambria as anything DU 1.! than a jus
tice of the peace lawyer?
What great principle of aw has ever
been elaborated by Mr. C L. Persh
ing's ellihrts?-, What leading ease has
-he ever shared the glory of contesting?
Does Mr. C. L. Pershing even Jive in
a county or court town? 11' our mem
ory serves us right, he is the resident of
a village which never saw a Court
ifilti MI, U- L. Pershing - any legal
htanding.at his own liar ? Is he known
as a lawyer or a politician ?
Will Alt'. C. L. Pershimt, if elected,
resign his position as local attorney for
the Pennsylvania Central Itailroad ?
We ask (hitt little question as the De
mocracy were greatly troabled lest Cm
Orant, if elected, should not resign his
commission in the army. -
The voters of this Slate have a right
to have these question~ answered. For
a Supremo J utJge it is their duty 'to vote
intelligently. Itespeettkble and tolera
ble respectable men ean sFallow " the
whole city ticket," ityliChnents and
all, but :i judicial candidate is a more
serious matter.
Let us have light. Until we have an
tilleqUiVeCal answer, there is 1101 choice
at alt between a lawyer like Williams,
and a what-ia-it lace Pershing,—Phil.

The New 1. - ork Pnst, 11l an
article on Pennsylvania polities, payA
the following• tribute to the inerits of
(3oveinor (leary :
John W. Geary, the Iteptiblican can
didate, end the present ttovernor,ls a
gentleman of the highest integrity and
of acknowledged abilities. A great,
part of his Fi fe has been spent in the
public servike, and he bas made no
fortune, and has no elinni to an election
except upon his character and talents.
For many years a trusted friend of Polk
and Buchanan, chosen by the latter
when President as the best man in his
party to administer the arliairs of Kan,
pas with justice to all parties, and, to
save p polarity in the
Northern states. Mr. Geary left the
Democrats with relnetance, and only
when he - found that nothing bat in
justice 911 4 lds part could satisfy them.
Never were freemen more directly asked
toN choose •between mopeN and merit
thee in thiP, contest; and it is fair to
sa y t h '.'t something more than the ftov
.ernor's chair is at stal;e. in it—the good
fame of Pennsylvania, and the charac
ter of her,voters for independence and
purity.
DrnrocnATic DEcuNov.—The Cor
ning Democrat, an organ of the Cop
perhead party of this State, said i n n
recent article :
" OM. worst scoundrels are prof6ssors
of the ehristian religion. Our churches
are full of the meanest villains oh the
face of the earth. While professing
ehristianity, -they practice the most
devilish crimes."
This indecent style Of opposition lo
the churches and to ehristianity ' is
growing stronger and holder among the
Peinocratic presses, whose editor now
take little pains to conceal their disgust
at the filet that the religious part of the
people prefer to act with the%dtepunli
can rather than with the Denmeratid
par Rochester Democrat.

at Meadville, August lith. Mr. Henry

Tioga County. The attendance was
large and the ConventiOn a -success.
The Democratic papers have been
shrieking fearfully about a late-case of
miscegenation. A son of Iltderick
Douglass married a daughter of a Pro
fessor in Harvard College. The pro
fessor happens to be a colored man, and
he is a teacher of gymnastics. That's
all.
These Democrats are great fellows to
Prophesy. Mr. 8 - eymour last fall pre
dicted that the Tfeasury would show a
deficit of $150,06b,000 in July 1869, if
Grant should be 'elected. Grant was
elected, and the treasury showed a sur
plus of more than $155,000,000 on the
first day of. July. Rowever, when a
leading] pemocrat comes within $3OO,-
00,000 of the truth he does better than
common.
S
Nes—Furey is in charge of the Par
kin Democrat—a half column of Oati
•tudinous imitation of Brick Pomeroy
attests the fact. We have not fieen
more frantic appeal to Packer's Purse
since his, nomination. " Packer and
Pershing, Peace and Prosperity !" in

per and Persimmons, Pop-corn and
Pickles, Pig and Pup Pies, Peas and
Parsley, Pliancy and Pheeliugs, but
no PhactS or Phigures.
Always glad to.acknowledge the re
ceipt-of 'a good thing out of Nazareth,'
we submit the fellowintl handsome
compliment from Col. Tate, of the Ly
coming Standard, Democratic :
"Our esteemed friend DAvin CAMERON, Esq.,
has been selected by thniteuolqican Convention
or Taiga v,oinity as their candidate rui tuuuty
,Treasuror. if ho performs the duties of that

We irUti Mr. CAMERON SUCC SS.
WATCH OUT!
An Arab had a tent by a well in the
desert, and during the prevalence of the
hot simooui he sought the shelter of his
tent. It' wits not a large .shelter—only
large enough for one. This Arab had, •
as most Arabs have, a camel, of which
he was very choice. One day, when
the sun was like fire, and the_ breeze
like a blast from a furnace, the camel ,
thrust his nose into the door of the
tent. Moved by pity, his master invit
ed the beast to put in his head. The
shade was so grateN) to the poor brute
that he advanced his long neck and
shoulders into the tent; then one foot;
thei another; then half of his body ;
then another foot, and finally he crowd
ed in altogether.
This was more than the Arab had
bargained for. Clearly, there was room
but for one ; if man, then no camel ; if
camel, then no man. But the camel
refused to retire and his whilom master,
reduced to slavery by his beast, was
obliged to vacate and leave the latter in
possession.
Now, of course, he'd the camel at
tempted to tlfrust the whole of his un
gainly body into the tent at once, he
would have been successfully repulsed
by the man. But remember that he
I only put in his nose at first, and the
man thinking that a camel's nose would
not discommode him, permitted the
intrusion. Then, by sloW and imper
ceptible degrees, the rest of the brute's
carcase was thrust in, and the man was
thrust out..
Now the tent of
. the Arab represents
the citadel of Republican principles;
the Arab represents such Republicans
as sleep 'While they should have their
lamps trimmed and burning; and the
camel represents the traitors who
sought to overthrow this Government
and set up a despotism instead.
To return to allegory—the camel has
just put his nose into Tioga county.—
Perhaps you may have seen it ; or you
may know some tender-hearted fellow
who, touched with Pity—or some other
consideration—has invited the beast to
put in his head. If you have seen the
nose of this political camel, and feel
moved to pass it by as of no moment,
remember the fate of the Arab, and do
as we do—strike the beast on the nose.
The Arab pitied the camel, but the
camel had no mercy on the Arab. Rec
ollect that.
There is another story which all have
some time or l another heard. It runs in
this wise: A poor laboring man return
ing home to his family from his work
on a cold December night ;• in his path,
and torpid with cold,' lay a serpent.—
The poo• man, moved by eoinpassion,
took up die serpent, put it in his bosom,
and went home: Arriving, he took the
serpent from his bosom and laid it near
the lire. Refreshed by the kindly
warmth, the reptile coiled Itself and
struck its deadly fangs into the flesh of
one of the children;
The man killed the snake. Yes—but
the snake killed the innocent child. It
would have been better to have loft the
reptile to its fate.
There are two applications which
may be made of this story. The 4'iper
represents the Copperhead lenders, wfio
have been out in the cold so long that
they are nearly froich to death. The
workingman represents any Republi
can who is careless enough not to
watelOolit" against the tricks of the
viper which not long ago dtruck at the
heart of the nation, and to-day lies in
wait to gobble up the unwary. The
'bitten child represents the manner in
which the punishment of folly becomes
vicarkius.
1 1
The ', other application of the fable is
so plain that we leave:lt to be made by
every man for himself,.
So we warn every Republican to be
ware of the camel's nose. The devil
never carries off man, woman, or child,
all at once. He takes them by degrees.
First a man is induced to cheat and lie;
then stealing comes easy ; then high
way robbery, and the higher crimes.
It having been said of David Camer
on, Republican candidate for County
Treasurer, that he fled to Canada to es
cape the draft during the war, we take
this opportunity to arrest the lie and to
nail it down. David Cameron visited
a friend of the family in Toronto, dur
ing the month of June, 1863. This
friend was his old teacher, and Mr.
Cameron was at his house by special
invitation. One morning the dispatches
in the daily paper brought news that
Gov. Curtin had called for troops to re
pel invasion. David Cameron took the
first train to the States, came to Tioga
County, and responded to the Govern
or's call in perron, There is the truth,
good people, and the man who started
the lie, and the men who are keeping
the lie in moticin, cannot gainsay it.
And now, mother word": Neither the
man who started the lie, nor any of
those who are keeping it afloat, over
responded to any call of Gov. Curtin,
or Abraham Lincoln, for men, money,
orany thing else calculated to strengthen
the nation in the hour of trouble. The
greater number of the parties to this
Bladder were not only not supporters of
the Government during the war, but
open sympathizers with the South. As
this attack is only another phase of the
Donaldson rebellion, we are surprised
that the recollection of favors shown to
a drafted man, by citizens of Wellsboro
has not "prevented any attack. at all.
People who live in glass houses must
not, throw too many stones.
W print on the first page a Commu
nication touching the Removal of the
County Seat. This is in accordance
with our custom relative to matters
which affect the public interest. Of
course all pastes to this contest will
have a hearing in these columns, the
I only limitation being as regards space.
At - the same time we cannot, forbear
mentioning that our correspondent ig
nores one of the ground rules, or posi
tive laws which enter into civil econo
my when he states that manufacturing
takes the supremacy of agricultural
production. Agriculture is the corner
stone or the producing interest, anu
whore it languishes the life of enter=
prise is sapped. CharleSton and Del
mar will this year produce more value
in butter, cheese, and grain, than the
balance of the county will produce of
iron, glass, and leather. We may day,
though, that Wellsboro is prospering
and growing, not because the Courts
are held here, but because there is a
thrifty and prosperous country around
it.
' ( •
3 The Democracy appear not to be able
r iv
to comprehend lic" Geary, a man with
out a vice, could - have held so many
offices of trust a d honor and not be
worth at least fifty ,thousand, He was
Governor of Kansas under Buchanan,
and was removed because he would have
fair play. He was in high position as
a military leader during the struggle
, of the Government with the rebellious
I Democracy ; and he has been Governor
of Pennsylvania for nearly three years.
But not being a thief or a speculator he
remains poor in pence—not a crime,
• surely. We don't count any man's
(
money, or his lack of it; as crimes. We
doii , t object to Paeker's•twenty Millions,
but - only that they procured for him his
nomination.
The • Commissioners of the Sinking
Fund advertise for the purchase of a
million of the not matured debt of the
Commonwealth. Go on', gentlemen.
The policy of the Republican party is
to pay all honest debts as soon as possi
ble. Geary has, paid off a million a
year of the debt contracted by Demo
cratic rulers, and Grant has paid Off
$44,000,000 of the debt contracted to put
down 'a Democratic rebellion , in five
Months. If you want to'endorse Grant
and economy, vote for Geary ; but if
you want intestine broils and an ever
increasing debt, vote for Asa Paelter.
When the nation was struggling to
quell armed treason in front and Cop
perhead sympathy in flank and rear,
Asa Packer was taking Ills comfort in
the fashionable resorWif
_Europe. At
the same time Gen. GearY was in the
field fighting rebels, and his only son
old enough to enter the service, was
with him. This son was killed by his
father's side at Wauhatchie. Mr. Pack
or neither furnished a family represen
tative in the field, nor assisted the gov
ernment with his vast - fortune. If
there be any stronger reasons why Re
publicans should support Geary, and
Democrats Packer, we don't know where
to find them.
THOMAS IC. BEECIIER, in his Friday
Miscellany for The Advertiser, always
jots down many good things. Last
week ho spoke very justly of the Quak
ers ; and touching the Words " regen
erate" and " regeneration," in the
baptismal service for infants, sayS that
the practice of using these terms with
different meanings, according to the
views of the officiating clergymen, is
not a good one—putting unity of sound
for unity of sense. That is a good dis
tinction.
Why should the Packerites charge
Geary with pardoning convicts out of
prison? 'The record shows that he
pardoned fewer than any I, emo cratia
Governor. Is It not true ti at every
ti v
man pardoned out of prise / goes for
the Copperhead ticket? Pu a 'pepub
lican in jail ki, week and he ill come
out 'a Domoci•at—lf guilty. 1
