FACTS FOR GOVERNMENT
RONDHOLDERS.
Read and Reflects!

In 1861 eleven. States seeded; and
twenty-three only since that time, have
been represented in Congress.
All the United States Bonds-5-20s, =
Sos and l0-40s-all the greenbacks and all
the National Banks were created by this
Congress of twenty-three States.
President Johnson says it is an "as-
SuD'ed C00gte&S''-therefore not Legal
His supporters and friends call it a "..,uap
Cof'Jre&S,' Il ,tsalpiHg CoHgrcSs,n there
fore not Il intCf'M Congress and they are
trying to eject Congressman in the North.
and adnat enough from the rebel States
to enforce this = POiicy"
liza Congress of twenty-three States is
nota l',Hf"l Congress, every United States
Bond You own, and your grecnhacks and
Bank notes, are worth nothing; because
an t@S01gfHl Congress could not make a
Id'CtW Bond or lawful moncy-and your
money is worthless rs your Bonds.
If Johnson's 4" Policy' succeeds. it
brings into Congress ninety-four Con-
gressmen from the Rebel States, instead
of eighty-tive-as before the war-tllts
they gain nine COngressnicn b5J their tlca-
son. The Northern States lose nine Con-
9FcSsme2 by fjtejr oict0r9y orc,. treason.
If the rebels get their ninetv-four Con-
gressmen, and the Johnson " Policy'
men elect enough in the North to give
them majority, United States Bonds
Will be held Ueyni, and United States
Bondholders will lose prjucipal and intc-
rest.
If you want to prove C0ngress Me1oL
and the Bonds Wcg0i, vote to elect Cop
per-JohnsonNational Rebel -Union-C Con
gressmen, who oppose the Constitutional
AmendmentI so that the National debt
may be repudiated when they get into
power.
II you want to prove Congress legal,
rote to sustain 1.-THE party that created
the Bonds-the party that fought and acon
he tcd'-that says Congress represents
the people-thar is pledged to Keep taih
0jM the BOndh0iders-and thus secure
theadoption ofthe Constitutional Amend
ment, and forever prevent reputation.
Remember also-our Loans are depre-
ciated in Europe by the London Times
which defends Johnson's Policy, hoping
to get Rebels back into Congress. and by
their irvotes do what they could not DO with
their arms

The Coalition Meeting TO-mOr-


In the Democrat a democratic meet
ing' is announced for tomorrow, and in
large bills bearing the signature of that
late double-dyed radical VIM. G.. Vines, a
Johnson meeting is called at the same
time and place, in which a strange med
ley of names is mixed up Hester CIV
mer is to address these patriots. and of
course he will make the best of his anti
war record. We read one of his speeches
lately delivered, and we have no doubt
the same thing will be repeated here
That speech abOunded in bubbles as 10
his conduct during the war; had u mig
ger interspersed here and there; had a
great deal to say about democracy: -
tickled the soldiers whenever he had a
chance, and concluded with a prediction
that democracy would triumph in his
election. There are soldiers, war demo-
Gratis, and other Union men who would
like to hear some explanations of a more
definite character, such for instance as the
following doings and sayings:

The Issue.

The Republican Party plants itself upon
the Constitutional Amendments, max
ing'Treason Odious, Furnishing the lead
ing Traitors, and guarding againstfuture
rebellions or assuin ptions of rebel debts
upon the adoption OF which Senators
and Representatives viii be admitted To
Congress from those States, as instanced
by Tennessee.
ON THE OTHER HAND,
The ticket headed by Clymer advocates
the Restoration of all the people of the
Rebel States TO full citizenship, and
greater political privileges than they
had before the rebellion, thus rewarding
instead of furnishing Treason; restoring
to power and place those who got up
the rebellion and requiring no security
for the future-for once re-admitted
there is no longer any power to regu-
late or control their political status
There is and can be no negro suffrage
at issue, and he who asserts there is,
knows in his heart that the truth is not
in him.
For the Constitutional Amendment,
Geary, MOrrell, Brown, Wharton, Glass,
TroXell, Shull, Mccoy, Wakefield.
For Restoring Traitors to Power and Re
warding Treason.

ssl Let every voter weigh we'll what
he Is doing before he votes, for if Treason
is no crime, our penitentiaries, jails, court
houses, judges and other law officers, are
all useless.

strong man was bowed. That voice,
which had given courage to many a
wavering line at the front, and joined
in the loud hurrah-
" When the red field was won,"
now faltered, and in trembling ac-
cents bade his fellow citizens farewell,

stand as the General retired, and in
his usual mastery style, exposed the

our country. But in spite of all the
efforts and assertions to the contrary,

and one long, loud shout of triumph
from the solid Union columns, will be
its only funeral, as the Western
shadows fall upon the second Tuesday
of next October.
At night DR.. E. Fl. Sabin, of the

CHOLERA IN NEW YORK!

/ New YORK, July 31-It is stated
that the cholera is assuming an cpl
demic form in the city to an alarming
extent. AT a5Emeeting of the Health
Board, toobe held this evening, extra
lordinary measures viii be proposed
for improving the sanitary condition
of the city. In consequence OF the
neglect of physicians to report cholera
cases, orders have been issued insist
ing upon their so doing. The number
of deaths during the past week was
f771, being a decrease from the
previous week. Sixteen persons died
of cholera at the work house. There
were thirteen cases and four deaths
officially reported yesterday. A cQm-.
parative table showsa smaller number
( of deaths yesterday than on the same
/ day in 1889 and 1854. At the Bat
/ terry Barracks Hospital matters are
rather more favorable An injunction
will be applied for to compel its re-
moval .ttshfj -
In Brooklyn the number Of deaths
was 304. The cholera has increased
but no decrease is observable. There
were ~ 2deaths from it during the past
week. The official report of yester-
day shows ten more cases and four
deaths; of these six cases were in the
county penitentiary., The official list
shows two new cases at Governors
Island. The epidemic seemed to be a
mystery, as the strictest sanitary pre-
cautions had always been observed.
At the present time extra vigilance is
exercised, the men being fed with
wholesome food, and the barracks be-
ing kept in state of cleanliness. At
Hearts Island the epidemic remains
about the same as the last report
