IN Pennsylvania

The election in that State take.
place the second Tuesday in, October
On Friday, September 9th, the sol
diers of Pennsylvania held a grand
meeting in Philadelphia, and there
declared that their interests laid with
the Republican party. Letters were
read from prominent men, from which
we take the following:
Gov. Oglesby, of Illinois, said
"Every soldier in Pennsylvania ought
to vote the Union Republican ticket
Any other course will bring shame
and regret upon the unfortunate man
who shall now forget his allegiance
to virtue and the best political party
our country ever gave birth to.''
Gov. Falrchild, of Wisconsin, sends
hearty Godspeed, and thinks: "You
do well to meet and declare to the
world that, in the opinion Of the men
who in the field of battle she'd their
blood and yindicated the nations
honor, the victory wrung from the
hands OF an insolent and powerful foe
must not be thrown away by those in
power. Until the united South is
reconstructed upon the basis of equal
rights and justice to all men, the po-
litical war which has followed so
closely upon the war of arms, must
not abate. The principles for which
our armies fought must not now be
sacrificed at The bidding OF unrepent-
ant rebels or their allies. No men
look forward more anxiously to a 4
speedy settlement of the issues grow
lnglout OF the wal, than do the soldiers,
but no men in all the land will resist
more untiringly than they any scheme
of reconstruction which does not do |
full and ample justice to loyal men
at the South who stood by us faith
fully during the dark days of war,
and does not, in some measure, make
perjury and treason odious."
And "Black Jack" Logan-sol-
diers do you know him?-feels that
"We, as soldiers, have not saved
The country, have not done half our
iuty, il we do not vote simply and
'quarely as we fought. We fought

Thieves and Anderson.

AS publisher of a journal it is oul
duty to chronicle events, and occa
s:onally gossip.
A Democrat, who has not every
confidence in Anderson's ability to
fill the office of Prosecuting Attor-
ney, in speaking of the election, said
that Anderson was sure of election.
+" Every id seoundrel," said he,
+" will vote for Anderson; be is not
enough of lawyer to get up a case
against any thief in shape to have
him convicted, no matter how plain
the case is.''

Democratic Platform.

The following is the Democratic
platform for this campaign for the
principles of which that party ask sol
diers and Union men to vote:
1st. The Reputation Of the nation
al debt.
ID. The restoration of slavery, or,
if that cannot be done, payment by
the nation for slaves.
Sd. Pensioning the soldiers wild
ows and orphans of the Confederate
army. --..----.-
4th. Disfranchisement of the black
patriot who aided TO suppress Treason
and rebellion. a-e1 "a -a-
9th. Recognition of the right O
secession, s;u t.4,..s s o.,
9Th. And the unconditional return
of rebels to politicafpower. er-T1
That is the platform and nothing
more or less. Remember the Cop
perhead course throughout the dark
days of the war, and their efforts
since, it cannot be regarded in any
other light. A vote for that party,
or the matter of scratching off the
word eyes from the Amendment
cannot be considered in any other
light than supporting such a plat
form and saying that the Copperhead
party have always been right. q .o %
Is il Right--Can we Endorse Ii ?
Since the adjournment of Congress
johnson has been writing letters to
leading members of the rebel party
the Democratic party-SouthA ad
vising them to attempt to overthrow
the Reconstruction acts of Congress
by going into the Courts and attcmpt
ing to get an opinion against such
measures. Johnson has attempted
| to ride over Congress, to bring thu
"one man power in opposition to it,
measures, and stops at no means I'd
accomplish it. He thinks a rebel
better than a Union man and the De
mocracy North and South endorse
him in it. Will Ohio endorse ths
President and the Copperhead party

Democrats deno4nee taxation and
the Government debt, and are trying
to school the people up to refusing
to pay the former and repddiate the
latter. That is their doctrine. and
to vote them into power will bring
dire calamity about. Vote the
straight Union ticket, including the
Amendment, and prevent this.

Brick Pomeroy, who, in company
with Henry Clay Eean, is making
speeches for the Iowa Democracy,
declares that q" the accursed memory
of Abraham Lincoln will never be
forgotten while the English language
is read or written" and that I" gen.
erations yet unborn will shudder, and
ask in astonishment why such mon
ster was permitted to iiye a month
in the Presidential chair" Thus
Brick, and he is a scaly one, when
Lincoln was murdered by Democrat
ic hands, denounced the act. He
denounced it because he thought
otherwise it would iDiure his party.
Leading Democrats ut the same tme
did the same thing. Now Brick con-
siders it ali right and applauds the
act, other Democratic leaders don't
10 it in such plain language, simply
because they are not honest, but feel
ust so. What man can vote with
such a party?

pected to scratch for never did such
a thing-not even excepting Vallan-
disham, for whom he voted for Gov
ernor, when the election of such a
man would have placed Ohio in an
tagonism to the Government, and in
opposition to the soldiers. Henry
Brown did vote for Vallandigham.-
He agrees with him in all his ideas
and admires him. VaIlandigham has
said repeatedly this campaign that
" be expected to be sent to the U. S.
Senate by the votes of the Democrat
ic Legislators Who are to be elected

to vote for Henry Brown, through

LAND MONOPOLY IN GREAT BRlrArN. ---
Mr.. Ernest Jones recently made u speech
on reform in Dublin, and gave some fig
ures to show how the land monopolists
hold the soil. In the three kingdoms
there are seventy-one million acres, and
only thirty thousand land lords. The
Duke of Devonshicr has ninety-six thous-
and acres in the county of Derby alone !;
the Duke of Richmond possesses three
hundred and forty thousand acres and
the Marquis of Breadalbane can ride one
hundred miles in . straight line through
his property from his own door. Thir-
ty thousand men say to thirty millions, J"
Here you shall walk, ard here you shall
not here you shall build, and there you
shall not here you shall live and die, and
nowhere else, because it is our will"
There are only eighteen millions Of acres

touched yhy plough Or spade, and lie waste
for all agricultural and almost all pastoral
purposes. III +. ,. a,5,.. ~.

ducks they were to be back on Sunday
and so proyisioned. themselves. Not re-
turning up to Tuesday, their friends, Els
fielder, Pieckart Haberly, Max and 9th
ers went up the river ten miles and could
get no hearing Of them! To-day (Wednes-
day., we learn that q larger company are
on the hunt for them. Nobody seems 70
have seen them exceptsat starting, when
several remarked that the boat was small
and drew too. much water for the load.--
This circumstance is adding much to the
sadness which the drowning of Mcdonald
gives US all. !. MIR. Bowen has young wife
and child; the others are unmarried, but
al Of them are Industrious mechanics. ae,' !
