was born 81 years ago, IN boon, on tbe
Rhine, in the prussiau D0minions. In
1919, be joined the Constitutional army,
and, sharing in its reverses, was sentenced
to death for high treason. For three
days and nights, after the Prussians had
entered Rastadt, be lag concerted in a
shed, on a beam or rattsr, just wide
enough to conceal bis person from the
eyes Of those who stood below. \ guard
of some kind was stationed in the very
house TO which this shed belonged, aud
every night the soldiers assembled on the
floor beneath his hiding place, and danced
to the music Of the trumpet. On the
fourth nigh; heavy shower Of rain gave
him an opportunity Of attempting an es-
cape Ia li!tle book published BY the
chiefspy Of BonapaTte's police, be received
honorable mention as "ihe most aulacious
and the mos, adroit" Of the exiles On
reaching America, which he accomplished
with great sacrifices, in 1851, he studied
law in PAi!adclphia, investigating closely
the count-y's institutions, settled in Wis
coDsin in 1851, and has since been a Re
publican nominee for Lieutenant Governor
Of the State. He is fine speaker and an
ardent worker in the cause Of Constitution
nal Liber,y.-Such is the man who is So
abused by the Bastard Democracy.
4 VOICE IN THE RIGHT QUARTER.
1t an American meeting in baltimore last
week, the eloquent abd fearless Henry
WINTER DAVIS took bod ground ia favor
of union against the bastard Democracy,
No-tl aud South, lie is for Bell and Ey
erett, aud wants all the Opposition in the
South to JOIN upon Bell. la the North,
where Lincoln i, strongest, the Opposition
should unite on Lincoln-and, thus, crush
cut this most oppressive, demoralizin, CRU
inous Of parties, the Muiaito Democracy
He had no fears of Lincoln. Mr. Dlvis'
speech is wise and statesmaHiEe, and
shows how the South are reconciiiDg them
selves to incolu's Election.
FOSTER had the au'acity to say, in his
speech Ia Philal., "I ou can not find a
vote Lincoln ever gave, or speech he
ever made, wherein he favored the doc
:rine Of Protection at ALL The Congre.-
sional Globe Of 1913 shows his rotes and
there are tens of thousands Of living wit
nesses of his speeches for that doctrine.
No wonder that such reckless man, who
used to get 1900 majority for Congress in
WestmOrciaud, is now Iun out by Homes,
John Covode p.
The Bell Penn'a State Convention at
Lancaster very wisely concluded not to
show their weakness By taking up q can
didate for Governor. The corrupt leaders
have sold themselves to Foster, but the
honest masses are for Curtin. We know
personally but one Of their Electors, and
he has assured US that he should work So
as to Gefeat--not to elcct-the Democra-
cy! A committee was appointed to sell
out the party, if they could find anybody
fools enough to give the COMMITTEE" the
price they put upon themselves.
UNION AGAINST THE SHAM DENoCRA-
CY, is the tight kind Of "!usion." This
Democracy has bred all our Slavery dis
seusions-has robbed cur Trcasary-aud
struck down the Protective principle. A
union against Democracy Of al! the truly
honest and truly conservative men of all
names and sections, is tie true uniou-and
not union to Foster and keep it in pow
or to continue It's work Of agitation aud
iefaleati0ns.
10 common honor and honesty, the Pcc-
PIES Party in pennsylvanie-espccially
hose pref4rriUg to be called "Amcricans'
are under every obligation 10 secure the
election Of Curtin and Lincoln, for it vas
By their influence and in Difference to their
views mainly, that those gentlemen were
placed in nomination. Their dssertion
Indcr such circumstances, would be perf-
l. and shamelessEess never known in po-
itical annals. They should and they will
zee our nominees through.
