Radical power played dignifiedly and
maiestically con the great moral idea"

clouds of political desperation and
hopelessness have begun to gather a.
round Radical aspirations, got down to
the character of a low demagogue. He

decision Of the Supreme Court, and
frighten Democrats who fall under the
ban of the null, void, iniquitous and
unconstitutional "Deserter Law" from

downright soft about the Uranium as to
pay the slightest heed in the world to

'FUss and Feathers" This was the
exclamation of an old "Repub!itan'
who doesn't believe so much in flags
and brass horns as in the former prin-
ciples ofhis party, as he looked on, the
other evening, when the Radicals were
engaged in marshaIling the faithful
The people can't be deafened by "noise
and cOnfusiOn," or blinded by gaudy

THEdesertions from the Radicalranks
nowadays are as numerous as those
from the lines of Lee to the army of
Grant just before the EaIlof Richmond.
Bread and Butter have a good deal to
do with politics, and those articles are
getting little scarce with some of the
Radicals, just as they did with Lees
men before the surrender at Appomat-
tox. The Bread and Butter brigade
is getting stronger daily.

GRANT ALL RIGHT.-Major Genera

Presidents speech, stands shoulder

The Radicals can claim any General
they may, but such solid men as Grant,
Sherman and Sheridan, know very well
what the war was for, and how the
South should be treated now that it has
been subdued. The same position as
taken by General Grant is being taken
by large majority of the solid Union
officers and sold7erA You cannot geia
true Union soldier, unless he is of the

THE price of the Campaign "Climb-
er" has been reduced to- correspond
with the length of time for which the
series is yet to run. There ought to be
atleast 500 additional copies circulated
in this county. As the subscription
price is now almost nominal, the Dem
ocrats in the various districts can eaSi-
ly raise contributions to enable US to
circulate 500 additional copies. Let
this be done, if possible.

GEARY made a speech at Hunting

the following language:
II have been asked whether | would
turn traitor like Andrew johnson, be-
cause was Democrat. / WW make

ence"
That is tosay, Geary, the democrat,
without prefix or affix," as he styled
himselfin his Mcguire letter, wilIturn
traitor to the Republican" party if it
profits him To do SO. Should the De
moeracy get into power, Geary expects
to hang ON to its skirts. Hence he "wilI
make no pledges" If that is satislac-

WE were positive when we left

cause as we believed, it sympathised
with the Disunionista-and we are Just
as positive now in leaving what was
the Union party during the war, be-
cause we believe it is in sympathy with
the Disunionists, Thad. Stevens, Sum
ner & Co. As parties now stand, with
ten States asking for recognition the
Democrats and dconservativerepub

HARD ON STANTON.

The Bedford Laqltirer has cut bor-
rowed from the Franklin Repository,
which that Office borrowed from King
& Baird, Philadelphia, Illustrating the
sufTerings at AndersonviIle, as compa-
red with those Of jeff. Davis. 1t is too
bad that the Inquirer should ''go back"
on its friend Stanton in this style
Stanton wouldn't exchange the Union
prisoners at Audersonville, but let
them remain there to starve and die.
But the Bedford Inquirer ought not to
print such caricatures of his compiled
ty with Wlrz. Why should it libel its
own friends?

mined to keep ten States out of the

The largest political gathering that
ever assembled in Bedford, was held
in the Public Square, in front of the
Court House, on Monday evening last,
Sept. 3d. Notwithstanding the fact
that the day had been inclement, the
rain pouring down all afternoon, large
delegations, gotten up by the people
themselves, without any drumming
from the town as was the case with the
Radical meeting on Tuesday evening,
came filing into the town until the
streets were literally jammed with
people. \ stand was erected in front
of the Court House, and the vast as
semblage gathered in the square inn
mediately opposite. We will not pre-
