Fellow Citizens : Remember that
on Tuesday next is tho most important
election, in which you will ever Lo eal-
Ti i
led upou to participate. Tho eyes of the
pcoplo of tho wiiolo country, arc turned
upon Pennsylvania, and if wo can show
to our brethren in other states, that tho
Old Keystone State is sure for glorious
''Little Mao" in November, it will have
a controlling iufluenco throughout (he
north. The election in thisstate on Tuc?.
day uext will in a very important seuso
decide the Presidential contest. Every
voto will count in its influenca. II in
aJdin tho votes in tho Congressional
Districts, it shall appear that tho De
mocracy have a majority, it will ivo a
stimulous to our friends bi other PtatC3
which nothing can overcome : AVc
know there are many -vim propose to voto
; our ticket in November, who do not
propose to vote at all on Tuesday. This
is wronj;. A voto now will toll moro,
even than a vote in November.
Remember the policy of Abraham
Lincoln and his party, is as Henry Wil.
lion states it "war and only war," when
no living uiaa pretends to be able to see
the end of it. Tho policy of tho Domo.
eraiio party ij to reek peace through
cmoiliation to attempt to appea?o tho
pa'i-ivm ul tho people and to brin: them
all together aqiin in tho spirit of the
l';t!ier:i. Choose yo, war and only war,
or peace with all it attendant blessings.
As tho pcoplo deeido in tho eloctiou, eo
rill it be.

The Debt of the Country-
The entire dbtof the couutry, it the

to 8 1000,000,000. This is equal to the
,, ' . . . 1 ,. ,

British Govcrntacat pay only about 3
per ccut interest on their debt, whilst

entire valuitioa of tho real and person.
al property of tao J.oyal dates by (tie
ecn.-:us of 1860, was about 811000.000,-
000. Tho valuation of tho property of
Great Britain by tho census of 1SG0 was
51.5000,000,000.
Thus wc shall bo called upon to pay
an interest double ia amount to that
I i r n l 7. 't - i m
pam oy ureai imain, wmio our prop.
! erfy amounts to less than one quarter of
that of Great Britain. We have always
been educated to tho belief that the
! misery of the operatives of England was
tho result of tho terrible taxation to
w.ncii every tning ana every boUy was

friends speak of our debt, as a merely p Northeiid and V. P. Jonks Es.j ,

Tho solo issue before tho people is
whether the war shall bo prosecuted
until tho people of the south, are forced
to change their constitution to suit the
will cf Abraham Lincoln, or whether
the war fchall be at once settled by c ju.

is war and dlsunloa or peace and union.
