TIE AMERICAN FLAG FIRED BY A
WIDE AWAKE TORCH

While the Republican party all over the
country has exhibited 50 little respect for the
American flag that they were induced to blot
out in '56 the stars representing the Southern
States, we little conceived that one among
them could be found 50 utterly debased as 10
set fire to the American flag And vet tins
act of Vandalism was left for Wilkes-Barre
Wide Awake TO consummate On Friday
evening last, the Democrats held a meeting on
the Court House Square which was addressed
by Col. J. G. Freeze, OF Columbia county,
Stanly Woodward and E. B. Chase, Esqrs, OF
Wlkes-barre. The meeting was well atten-
oed, and all its doings were characterized by
good order. A flag waved from the speakers
stand, which was allowed to remain there
when the meeting adjourned The Wilkes
Barre Wide Awake Club, which had paraded
the streets early IN the evening, went to Scran-
ton, and returned about one or two O'Clock in
the morning. As these worthies approached
the Square, one of them was seen to walk up to
the stand where the flag was nailed, and delib-
erately applying his torch 10 1t, burned ii from
the pole. Such an act furnishes its own COM
n entary. We will only add the inquiry, how
can any National Union-loring man vote
with party whose teachings tend to the de-
struction Of our country's Gag !-Luzerne
Union.

GI02E THAN NEGRO EQUALITY CLAIM =
FD.

The Boston Atlas, leading Republican pa
per Of the New England States, is hard down
on the foreign born-esPeciaIly the Irish. Hear
the negro-worshiPping editor
''You may take ive-thousand negroes as they
come, and thousand Irshmen in the same
way, and you viii find the negroes surprising
the Irshmen of Boston in intelligence, morality
industry and good citizenship. They are more
thrifty, more orderly, and in every way supe-
ror"
The above is IN accordance with the late a.
mendment of the Massachusetts, Constitution,
which disiranchises the adopted citizen for two
years after he receives his full naturalization
papers. Negro suffrage is above par in that
State.

TARIFF AND ANTI-TARlFF.

The Llnconites say much against those who
do not fully agree on political questions com-
bining to support the same electoral ticket
How much more consistent they are IN their
political action. the following, from the Phil
ade!phIa Monitor, will show
HANLIN THE FREE-TRADER.-Wi Mr.. Ham
lin give the friends of protection written
pledge that in the event of fLlncon's death, ne
will recommend a Protective Tariff! In
New York, the elector at the head OF the list
insists that tie Black Republican platform Is
opposed to a tariff. Mr.. Hamlin himself has
ALWAYS been about as ultra iree-trader as ever
! Mr.. Calhoun was. Hence in Pennsylvania
and New Jersey, where 50 many tariff men
are enlisted in the Republican cause, II IS but
ialr and proper that such pledge should 6'
given.

It is suggested that they can run a telegraph through if they don't find water. They will probably however have an injunction come up through the hole from some established line.
