" Mother Carey's cliickmiH," so the
plil Suit- suv, are precursors of a storm,
when they fly about loealitcs, with that
uneasy, roMlcss inovcnietit wlych be
longs to tlif! r nature. Within a low
days past, we have observed the Radical
chickens flying tiboiit most uneasily tit
the present cnudition of tlio material
interests ol the country. The labor of
the free white man is at a very low ebb.
'JT.r mechanics ore arkiug liighor'wages,
work is fearce, tiade is dull, busiuui-.8
heavy, capil'il alarmed, and taxes In-
crva.-ing. 'ilo national banks, it is
true, arc making large dividends, rag.
nioney is easily printed, but it is rags,
after all. The internal revenue presses
on the manufacturer, the high tariff af
fects commerce ; government, as it is
called, is now a partucr in every busi
ness, and takes in its taxes nearly nil
the profits. We look in vaiu for new
enterprises in which confidence and
coin join to make wealth real wcallli,
and pive the industrial nvoeationa full
hands an l full mouths. This is a per
fect portraiture of tho present state of
affairs here at home. The Radical
Congress, with it military despotism,
and negro equality, and standing army,
r.iid rctLIe.s extravagance and waste of
the money of the people, is the cause of
all this ruin. The Radicals, or the Bo
ca, led Congress, arc the authors of this
misery, this famine, this want of work.
Tho white labor of the country has not
eccivtd a moment's attention. The
negro, the negro, all for the negro. The
real interests of tho white r inducer were
not worthy their attention. Nt ; but tho
tiegri, his, " bureau," his vote, his idle-nc.-s,
his comfort, for these millions and
nfuli'ir.ii'of dollars have been squandered,
which tho white labor of the "country
mu.st first pay before it can get bread.
The " loyal " fchoddyites, whatearo they
or the mechanic '! Fat on the stealings
id tho war, they arc now beyond want.
The white poor may starve so long as
the national banks pay dividends, not
tveu t;,scd to feed the negro, not even
laved lor city expenses or State pur.
o.-cs. This, all this, will make a storm,
md tho Radical chickens feci it coming.
1 hey seek sheltctaway from the perils
m,d the tornado. They can't escape
Tl c Radicals have done all this ; they
1 -ivo produced the evils we new sec
ning daily, as they are, in their pro.
I . viioiiH. The retribution is slow, but
i lire. " The mills of the gods grind
i-lowly, but they grind exceedingly

'! Wiliiamsport and Wilkesbarrc held
L.st week recuked In the Democrats
carrying loth places neither one ol
which has elected a Democratic ticket
fi-r a " coon's age." In tho former
place the Democrats carry the city bv
a handsome tm'j;rity, (wo forget tho
figure:;), but the gain since last fall is
fci-rnty-,;jhi ! In the latter city the
I'cmocrnts elect their candidate for
Mayor hy u majority of 47 J, which over
b".t hYi's eleeli.Ki, id a gain of 000.
Serb gains as these are extraordinary.
The truth is that the people are getting
tired of Radical mi.-rule, tyranny and
taxation. Let tlio Peiuuciacv but he
caicful in tho selection ol candidates fin
the fall election, am our v.finl fe,r it, n
year hence, there will not bo rimuuli of

Oourige, then, Democrats. The re

bill moving. Victory is mvaiiing vn.

State gives me tho power to open the
doors of this prison, and iu the lawful
exercise of that power I now grant you
a full and free pardon. This very hour
tho warden will relieve you of a con
vict's uniform and give you a citizen's

within these walls, and while I and iny
friends here live we will everywhere
bear testimony that your impi iouinetit
leaves no stain upon your character.
