CURED in defending the life of the Re
public? 1t behooves every patriot il
the land to stand firm in the prese
hour, and to battle stoutly against thu
forces re-arrayed against the policy
under which rebellion was crushed
Let loyal voters cast the ballot for the
party that raised and sustained o,i
banner through the dark days of the
rebellion, and that will still bear alofl
that emblem Of liberty and equality,
until treason shall verify be made
odious, in whatever Shape it may ap-
pear, and the industrial interests of
our country shall again be restored to
basis of permanent prosperity. ave
cannot afford to swap horses crossing
the stream" even if we feel inclined to
trade. Suppose Judge Sharswood
should be elected to the Supreme
Bench of our State and his influence on
the tegdt tender question should again
be brought to bear on our currency,
what result would follow? If it
should become his lot to determine,
by majority of the bench, the ques-
tion whether we can pay debt, noteor
bond IN lawtm currency, with green
backs, or buy gold for that purpose at
high premiums, his late decision de-
nying that they are Mrfm money
would again meet us, and then what
results would follow ?"Confnsion worse
coniounded" would hardly give an
idea of our condition. Every man
that OWNS dollar, or expects to pay
for his support, must see that he will
be committing financial suicide in vot-
ing to elect that Judge. On the other
hand, we present candidate, Judge
Williams, in every respect the equal
of the Democratic nominee-be he in
his private character as respectable as
he may. And in the higher character
of a loyal Judge, we challenge com
parison!
, Every decision he made during the
war involving the sustaining of the
Government, was promptly delivered
IN the side of his country, and every
pulse in his veins beat in harmony
with the life throb Of the Republic.
Elect him, and no danger will
hreaten the value of our money, and
n all other questions his past life is
ecurity for his future integrity and
ability.

The Democratic papers are making
a fuss over the fact that the father o
Gen. Grant spoke at a Democrat,
meeting in Cincinnati last week; bu
they forget to publish what he said
Recollecting that Richard Smith, ESQ.
is the Republican nominee for Con.
gress, the reader is introduced to the
following, which we find in Cincin-
natl paper:
MIR. Carey was succeeded by Mr.. J.
r. Grant, the Generals parent, who
made the following astonishing re-
marks.
= Gentlemen-Thc lateness of the
hour prevents me from making a
speech. Between the two candidates
for Congress, Mr.. Smith and Mr..
Carey, | will only say that you can
judge them by their record. While
one opposed the war, and did every
thing he could against it, the other
favored it, and did every thing he
could for it. IF this is Democrat
meeting, | advise you all to vote for
Smith.

MONTANA ELEcrIoN.-The splen-
did Democratic victory over which
the party has been exulting for some
time past, is dwindling down to little
or nothing. The actual returns show
that the result is doubtful at the
very worst for the Republicans. Mad
ison county, in which Virginia city is
situated, gave Mclean, Copperhead,
632 majority in 1865. 1t gave Saun-
ders, Republican, 200 majority at the
late election. Jefferson county, which
the Cops carried in 1865 by IL ma
iority, gives Saunders, Republican, SO
majority this year. ~ ,

TEE STATE FAIR.

Gov. Geary's address, at the STATE
Fair, held at Pittsburgh, on the 2lth
25th, 2Gth and 9th inst, we give tc
our readers, but the proceedings entire
are too long for our columns. After
being escorted from the city to the fair
ground by Il large concourse ofsoldicr.
and citizens, headed by a band of music
and being appropriately received in a
speech from r. Biddle Roberts, the
Governor replyed as follows:
ADDRESS or GOV. GEARY.
GEN'L. ROBERTs-I trust thatyo
sir and the citizens Of Pittsburgh, will
accept my greatcful thanks for this
most gracious and enthusiastic welcome.
That some of my old friends, my com
panions--companons of my youth
and comrodes on the field would have
turned out to welcome me on this oc-
casion, might reasonably be anticipated;
but such an overwhelming welcome as
this, sir, was not expected by me, and
to express the feelings Of ones heart
under such circumstances is not PCS
8ible. As public officer ] might
consider this one continuous sign of adj
miration. As an individual [ can
only express my sincere and heartfelt
thanks.
1t is exceedingly pleasant to visit
Pittsburgh at any time. Hundreds of
historic recollections crowd upon us
when we think of its past history, and
at the present time you have incontesti-
bic evidence of prosperity, progress
and contentment. The pillarof smoke
that hangs over your city, by day is
like the pillar of old. You have re-
verted to my service in the field. In
performing this / did nothing but
my duty, and what / have done has
passed into history, and belongs to the
people--it is their property. Zap
plausc.
Having spoken to you l will not
address myself to the members and
supporters of this great Agricultural
Society.
Mr.. PRESIDENT, LADIES AND GEN |
TLEMEN Deeply sensible fthe dis
honor that has been confer
red in selecting me to inaugurate the
ceremonies and proceedings of the
Pennsylvania State Agricultural Soci-
ETY., | am happy to appear before you
for that purpose, on this interesting
occasion Of its annual exhibition.
Sixteen years ago few intelligent
citizens of the Stare, actuated by a spir-
i Of enterprise and benevoience, a
,ealous regard for the promotion of
he interests of agriculture and the (,
mechanic arts, and for the honor and
prosperity Of this good old Common
assembled together and organ
zed this now highly prosperous, sub
tantial and useful association.
1t was exceedingly difficult at its
commencement to convince any con-
iterable number of farmers, mechan-
cs and partissians that any material
'enefit could accrue to them from such
n institution, and hence it was for
ome time regarded with apathy and 4
Indifference But as its advantages

This is worthy of the Memphis Aro-

gospel Of the Democratic party. This
is the vital heresy which furnished the
excuse for the war; and the success
of that party is the reopening of every
question which the war seemed to have
settled.
Is this desirable ? What do we
gain by it a? The conscience and in
telligence of the American people are
represented by the dominant party
their Ignorance, viciousness, and hatred
of progressive free government by the
Democratic party. We speak of par
ties, of course, not of individuals.

forces, and they will heave the great
frame of society until they acquire their
natural ascendency. Ifthe principles

sentiment of nationality VIII the
pander to the grossest and most preiu-
liced ignorance stimulate general in
diligence ? And as for the details of
administration, will the disciple of
Floyd and Toucey and Cobb and
Thompson teach us political honor, or

A LETTER to the Omaha Herald
from the fast city of "Julesburg on
wheels" says that, in one day recently,
they had two street fights, hung
man, rode three men out of town on
a rail, got up a quarter race, a turkey
shooting, gander pulling, match
dog fght-had preaching by circus
rider, who afterwards ran foot race
for an apple-jack all around; and as
that was not enough, the Judge Of
the Court, after losing his fees at single
handed poker, and whipping a fellow
for saying he didn't understand the
game, went out and helped to lynch
his grandfather for horse-stealing!

Where shrouds of lava overspread
The silent cities of the dead.

And though sweet voices filled the wind
From home, canst not one look behind.
Through such heroic souls as those

Artillery sOwed the field,
With shot and SHE'LL that make it still
An iron harvest yield,
Mid showers of grape and canister,
Along our lines of blue
The soul of Seyenty-six struck with
The arm of Sixty two.
Beneath our Flag The Lord of Hosts
Fought on this Ieekng sod;
For traitors to their country
Are traitors 10 their God.

Shoulder to shoulder, as they fell,

With empty musliet here.
Here fell the dauntlcss Mansfield,

And yonder bridge, that Burnside
So gallantly did hold,

Still waved his flag on high,

With springing step, advance

Tossed on the surging flood
Till he had shown riileman

While Sumner, Meade and Sedgwck,
Like old campaigners, made
Raw striplings breast like regulars

Have made, with brilliant CLEAN,
A Marathon OF every plain,
A Nile Of every stream.
And never more would Europe boast
or her SCARED grenadiers,
Could she have seen the work that day
Done by our volunteers.
-Four times yon wood was won and lost
Where lay the foe entrenched;
And to its staff our banner chung,
In scarlet rain bedrenched;
When onward went the brawny troops
That never charged in vain
Our lion-souled Green Mountain BOYS,
And lumbermen of Maine!
And from their masked intrenchments
The veteran ranks within,
Were hurled as if each bayonet
A thundcrbolt had been.
