(flic democrat. HARVEY SICKLGR, Editor. TUNKH4NNOCK, PA .. WdneBa cred duty, The Democratic press of this State have an arduous work t pertorm. Ma nv scarcely manage to live, because the Detn oc ats are lukewarm and refuse to toe the mark like horieat men ; others are more prisperous. There is no doubt of the fact, that the fate of the Democratic party rests with its local presses. If suppported, they are giver lite and strength—if uncared for, they die. So it is, Democrats. You are not doing your duty to the press of the Common wealth. We appeal to all true Democrats who Lave the interests of their country a heart, to strengthen their local presses. Subscribe for as many Democratic papers as you can aff rd, but above all take your home paper. Throw all the advertising you can to its columns. Do not yield to a corrupt oppo sition, A Democrai(?)who takes an oppnsi lion paper, and gives it all bis patronage, needs t. be watchel. He would build up a fanatical party upon the misfortunes of hia own. Such men are not worthy to claim Democcralic favor, and yet that very class of mer. are always the most eager for office, and the nominations of caucuses. But we have good men, who are ever read) and wilt ing to cme to the rescue. We never ap peal to tbem in vain. They know the im portance of sustaining the press in their ef forts to break down a fanatical and corrupt opposition. We wish ah Democrats would think of these facts. Now is the timo to make the effort. With a good pull —s strong pull—and a pull altogether , Pennsylvania is •afo for a Democratic Governor ID L 866- The Issues of the Day, There aie a number of issues now before the people of the United States,but the three tnost important and leading questions, which must soon be decided one way or the other, may be briefly futnmoned up as follows : 1. Shall we give to the negro race the right to vote, and thereby acknowledge its right to demand a social and political equality with the white raco ? 2. Shall we tolerate and defend a discrimi nation in favor of the capitalist in levying taxes to pay the national debt ? 3 Shall we encurage an opposition by Congress to the return of the Southern States into the Union, on tbe tetms embraced ir President Johnson's plan of re union or re conatruction ? The Republican party everywhere takes the affirmative on thee questions. The Democratic party takes the negative. In other words, tbe Republican says yes to all tbeau propositions—tbe Democratic party aays no. Let the people choose between tbem. Lord Palmerston, the Ptemier of England, waa taken suddenly ill on October 15, from the effects of A cold, and died at 9 A. M. on the 19:fc.

CURTIN. * Extended to Wyoming Co. by act 10th Feb. 1865. t Changed to fifty-cents by act of 10th Feb. 1965. WASHINTON, November 2. THE PUBLIC DEBT. Secretary McCullock to day promulgated the statement of the public debt as it ap pears from the books of the Treasurer's re turn and requisitions in the Department on the 31st of Oetober, 1865. The ncapitula-* t'mn shows the following : Debt bearing iotorest in coin .$1,161,137,691.80 Debt bearing interest in lawful money 1,191.819 787.46 Debt on which interest has ceased 1 373,920.09 Debt bearing no interest 386,523,359 51 Total amonnt outstanding,.s3,74o,Bs4 758.86 The total interest it $138,938.078 59 of which $67,670,340.50 is in coin, and $7l, 267.738 09 is in lawful money. The legal-tender notes in circulation are as follows : One nd two years' five per cent $32.536,901.00 United States notes old issue 392,070.00 United States notes, new issue 427.768,469 00 Compound interest notes. 173.012141.00 Total .. $633,709.581 00 The following is the amount in the Treas ury : In coin $34 554 987 00 In curency 33,800,581.00 To'al $6B 355 578 69 Fractional currency on hand, $26 057,469. A contrast of the October statement with that for September shows a reduction of the publ c debt of four millions of dollars, and al so a reduction of legal tenders of over forty four millions. In the October statement there is also a new feature, namely, amount outstanding in five-twenty bonds exchanges under the act of March 3, 1865 nearly four millions and a half. These are payable after five and re deemable in twenty ytars from November 11 at six per cent, interest in coin. The temporary loan at four per cent, is $012,728 ;a; five percent. $31,309,710; and at six per cent. $67,185,306. Certificates of indebtedness, bearing six percent interest, $55,905,000. The Age, acknowledging the receipt of let ters fr"in a number of gentlemen, some of members of the Democratic State Commit tee, who urge a return to the old practice of I holding the State Convention on the 4th of March, gives its own opinion in favor thereof. It correctly remarks that the postponements heretofore made brought with them no solid advantages, whilst the 4'h of March is hal lowed by party associations, and is just re mote enough f-om the day of Contest to af ford ample time for organization, without be ing so long as to weary, or abate the intereat of those who are called upon to participate in the active and laborous task of organizing, drilling and bringing to the polls the two hundred and sixty thousand Deiuocrotic vo ters of the Stale. On the Dight of the 20th, cattle thief Jim Lane, Senator from Kansas, made a speech at Washington' in which he said that he would rather hear, instead of tho daily announce ment of the pardon of eghty or one hundred and fifty rebels, that two or three were hung. He also expressed fhe opinion that no man should be pardoned until his estate should be reduced to the -quatter's claim—one hundred and s xty acres. By such oddities and atroc ities Jim manages to gather around him enough rascals an 1 cutthroats to constitute an orbit, and to forma striking contraat to the good which meritorious men perform. "CAN the Ethiopean change his skin or tho Leoptrd his spots?" Our imp seems to think that the above text iutimates the superiority of the brute over tho nigger ; if he gets tired of one spot he can go to another but the darkey can't shange his skin. Pres ident Johns<*n who rode into office rn the negroes' back, recently said that "the negro cannot be made a white man in a day." If Wendell Ptiiliips, or any of the clan, has any further experience on tho subject he ought to let it be known, how long it does take to change the order of creation.

I have decided that while lam among Gentiles I will do>s Gentiles do. There * ' fore I again present myself at the door of your sanctum sanctorum , and, tendering to you the appellation by which lam distin guished from other members of the genus homo , humbly beg permission to wander in. your columos. If your readers derive as much pleasure from the wandering of my \ pen, as I have enjoyed while wandering among the lofty mountains of your famous county, I will considermyßelf amply reward ed for all trouble. In the itinerant life which I lead I have many pleasures and enjoy ma ny privileges that are unknown to the stay at home portion of community. lam kind ly permitted to make myself at home where ever my wanderings may lead me. Thus do I become acquainted with the resources, and the public and private improvements of the land, the advantages and disadvantages of localities, the contension9, feuds, and gossip of neighborhoods, the joys and sorrows, griefs and pleasures of families, and the.suc cess and reveries of individuals. Although on account of my inquiring disposition and wandering habits, I have been able to notice many things that, fortunately for many, are unobserved byjthe common observer, I hope that your readers (should you desire to pub lish this,) who have a "skeleton in the house" will not tremble for fear ol an expose, for I have learned the art of keeping secrets as well as of discovering them. With this in troduction, I wait to learn your pleasure, whether it be " my colurant are open for you"or"depart thou and wander elsewhere." Yours, &c. WANDERING JEW. THE REBELLION IN JAMAICA. —The N. Y. News has a letter dated Kingston, October 22, confirming the report of a negro insurrection in Jamaica, and alleging that terrible cruel ties have been perpetrated on the whites, es pecially women and children. The News re - marks editorially ; "Admiral Sir James Hope, commanding at Halifax, started last Saturday in 11. A. M. ship Duncan, seventy-lour guns, with the seventeenth regiment on b >ad. H D M. ship Sphynx was to have followed on Monday. Cotuuiudore McSwede of H- M. ship Galatia, having sailed lor Nassau a fortnight previous ly, will be in advance of the Admiral. All the available British force upon this conti nenl will be concent rated at Jamaica and the insurrection, thus promptly met "-ay be quelled, but not without great loss and suf fering to the unprotected whites, who are be yond the teach of timely assistance." The Expres says Havana advices confirm the accounts of a mutiny at Jamaica. Many revolting murders have been perpetrated. A white magistrate had been killed, llis fin gers and toes wer cut off, and his bowels were ripped open by a negro woman. The greatest alarm pi evaded among the whites, and the mutiny was spreading.

Saturday he was maudlin, and made everything intensely disagreeable. Drip, drip, drip, all day fell the rain ; the mud grew deeper and deeper, until it was almost impossible for oven the women to travel the streets. The side-waiks became ldst to view from the onglomerate of mud, partial ly decayed straw and street filth generally, that floated over them, until the middle of the street was not only the safer but the more pleasant pla eto walk.

An honest "eolporteur" happening to pass along on the opposite side of the street just at the time, "Right bower" sung out, "There's Town Talk ovor there, listening to every word you say."
