..James w. Holden, son of Gov.
Holden, made speech at Raleigh, on
Wednesday, in which he advised the
blacks to 60 to the polls armed to the
teeth. Let us have peace.
Farms in Arkansas sell at from three
to five cents an acre. A local paper says
that dirt is so cheap that you have to
look sharp or they will smuggle an extra
forty acres or so on you in making out
the deed.
"A negro orator named George r..
Williams made a speech lately at Hunts
vile, Alabama, in which he held forth as
threat to whites that the blacks had no
property, and could lose nothing by the
application of the torch.
-Four years. labor at the Ames Works,
CEicopee, Massachusetts,, has at last
brought to completion the bronze Capitol
doors, and they are soon to be packed for
transportation to Washington. The cost
of casting and finishing is stated at from
$40, 900 to $4,000.
Every workingman is taxed to help
pay three hundred and sixty-six thousand
dollars day to support a standing army
in time of peace. What use is made of
the army? To force negro rule upon
white men in the South, preparatory to
adopting the same policy in the North.
Was there ever people thus insuIted and
outraged by political faction?
The Alabama Radicals are stamped
ing. Thomas Masterson, representative
from Lawrence, and w K Chisholm,
representative of Lauderdale, Assistant
Collector for the State at large, have
espoused the cause of Democracy. DIR.
Sykes, President of the Radical Conven-
tion in Alabama, and James S. Clark,
Circuit Judge, elected in February, both
of Lawrence, and Gen. w. A. Austin,
Moses Naples, and James Williams, re-
presentatives from jackson, has followed
their example and taken the stump for
Seymour and Blair.
Additional intelligence from the scene
of the late earthquake in South America
is received. In Ontario the stencil arising
from the unburied bodies is horrible
Plllaging was going on in africa and
Arequipa, Peru. The artillery battalion
at africa were at enmity with the people,
who accuse them of robbery. The stores
of Wateree were being distributed to the
needy in africa. Shocks were felt as late
as August 90. Some people were still
beiEg dug out Of the ruins alive, one poor
fellow among them having been entombed
for six days along side of his wife's corpse.

A Good illustration.

Hon. T. a. Hendricks, of Indiana, the
democratic candidate for Governor, in a
speech of great soundness and force, in
showing the Importance of harmony and
good telling between the North and South,
and the advantages of reciprocal trade be-
tween the South and Northwestern States,
gave the following happy illustration.
"The sweetest lesson of our religion is TO
be found in the parable of the ?rodigal Son.
That son, you recollect, became tired of the
best home in the world, and wandered off to
seek his fortune among strangers. Seeding
from the paternal roof, soon poverty and
hunger came upon him, and he concluded to
return. If that father, who saw him away
off, had been radical, what would he have
said? There comes my rebellious son =
He thinks l will let him come back upon
the same terms as the rest of the boys and
girls. No, nop That father as described to
US in the parable was not a radical. He
opened his arms and welcomed him as he
saw the erring boy return, and as he stepped
into that house, peace, love and happiness
returned. There was a radical in that
family, though. The other boy, as soon as
he saw his brother coming, commenced
growing, and did not want the returning
prodigal admitted. / ask you, as Christian
men and citizens, do you think we can build
our institutions upon the bad passions of
hatred, revenge and neutrality-suspicious. that
come up from the dark caverns of hell 2"

GENERAL BUTLER.-We are not surprised
to learn, says the National Intelligencer, that
General Benjamin f. Butler has been renorni-
mated for Congress by the Republicans of
Massachusetts,. The nomination is one emf
nertly fit to be made by that party In every
particular but one he is their best represen>
tative man, the type of their morals, their
political principles. the agencies they en-
ploy, their cruelty. their cowarCiice, their
mean hatreds, and the keen rapacity which
never losses sight of its object. In only one
respect does the type fail. Not statesman,
not versed in the higher theory and walks of
politics, shallow alike in history, in consti-
tutional law, and knowing, caring nothing
at all of the means whereby State may be
made great, powerful, enduring, and pros
porous, Butler is, nevertheless, smart, cum
hing, tricky, and armed with sort of low
wit that elevates him far above his Congress
sioDal associates /; and these give him an in
tellectual predominence among them which,
however annoying to the vanity of persons
like Bingham and Schenck. is none the less
an indisputable fac.. It is by him and men
smaller than he, and not less base, that the
country has been governed for years, and
will continue to be governed if the Republi-
cans triumph in the Presidential election.
The election of Grant means simply a per-
petuation of the ruinous dynasty of Butler,
Sumner, Wilson, Ashley, Schenck, Bing-
ham, Donnelly, and Washburne,

The above statement shows that there has
been collected out of tie people, by taxation
within three years, the enormous sum of ONE
THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED MILLIONS OF DOL
LARS. A sum amounting to about two
thirds of the whole public debt, and yet that
debt has been reduced only one hundred and
twenty-four millions in all that time. A
sum. too, equal to all the expenditures of
the Government. for seventy odd years of its
existence, prior to 1861.
1t shows further that there have been col
le0ted upward of two hundred and sixteen
millions more than have been paid out,
which excess is not in the Treasury, and
must have been stolen by Jacobs thieves
1t shows another thing-that the Jacobins
expended in 1868 about twenty two mil
lions and a half more than they did In
1867. This Indicates which way the cur
rent is running. That twenty-five millions
aud half which they have added to the ex
penditures in a single year ought to meet all
the necessities of the Government, under
good, sound, wholesome, economical, Jeffer-
sonian administration, aside from the pay
merits on the public debt Instead of that,
the Jacobins have made it upward of three
hundred millions over and above payments
on the public debt.
More and worse than all this. According
to Mr.. Delmar's statement. the expenditures
for the current fiscal year, 1869, will
amount to four hundred and eigbty-one mil
lions four hundred and eighty-seven thou
sand dollars, including the Post Office def
cheney of six millions. This increases the
penditures in this year of Jacobn economy
over those of last year, SIXTY SIX MILLIONS
AND A HALF Of dollars-more than the
whole expenditures of the Government in
1860.
1t further appears that the estimatedsre-
ceipts for the current fiscal year, to meet
these expenditures are only three hundred
and twenty millions six hundred and twenty
thousand.
"Thus, (says Mr.. DeImar.) If the TFea-
s,uy endearors to meet its current crpelldi-
tlreS this gear Ito say nothing Of n,atured
claims deferred or Of the Post Office def
ciency), 1t aciH sho,o deficit Of 1854 $780,

from increased tdreS or loanSi'
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY-FoUR MILLIONS
to be added to the public debt in a single
year, and when the Jacobins have been try
ing to make show OF economy, to deceive
the people in the Presidential canvass. And
should they be successful in retaining power
there will be no limit to the increase here
after.
The rich want more bonds to be bought
with greenbacks, and paid to them in gold, ,
and exempted from taxation!
The tariffltes want higher duties, to in>
crease their bounties!
The Jacobins want more expenditures, for
the heavier they are, the greater the steal
ings!
But the poor people! What do they want!
Let them answer at the ballot box.

Vote the Whole Ticket!

The Democratic County Ticket chal-
lengeq, and we are sure viii receive, the
vote of every true Democrat in Cambria
county. The candidates are all true and
tried Democrats, and are all fully compe-
tent to exercise the duties of the various
offices for which they have respectively
been selected.
The nominations were made in full
County Convention. Every ward, bor>
ough and township in Cambria county
was represented. Every candidate before
the Convention was pledged to support the
ticket nominated, and we are at loss to
see how any honorable man, thus present.
ing his name to the Convention, could af-
forwards set up his own love for office
against its action, and by taking the
Radical nomination, and going upon the
Radical ticket among the Radical candi-
dates, make common cause with them
against the Democracy.
Joseph Mcdonald, the volunteer and
Radical candidate for District Attorney,
having held the best office in Cambria
county more than half the time since he
attained his manhood-having filled the
Office Of ProthOnotary for twelve years,
and received at the hands of the Demo-
cracy about thirty thousand dollars
-,
County Convention, and when he finds
that every other Democrat is not post
poned to him, sets himself up as an oppo-
nent to that party, its principles, and its
candidates. The Radicals leave him a
place on their ticket, and he falls very
gracefully into it and instead of raising
his eloquent voice for Seymour and Blair,
and the Constitution he seeks the affini-
ty of his former enemies, and we now hear
the toadies of Daniel j. Morrell shouting
for "Grant, Colfax and McDonald"
We speak "more in sorrow than in an
ger" in thus referring to Mr.. Mcdonald.
but we can have no political affinity with
one who links his faith with those who
have brought ruin and desolation upon our
common country.
The best friends of Joseph Mcdonald
will feel it their duty to oppose him at
the polls; and he much mistakes if he
imagines that those who have helped him
into Office, year after year, an the Demo-
cratic party, are so much his slaves as to
follow him out of it. He will be defeated,
and it will require him some years to re-
gain the proud position he once held
among the gallant Democracy of "Iittle
Cambria"
The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1868-10-08
The Skies are Bright!

From every portion of the State we
hear most cheering news of the progress
of Democratic principles From the East
and the West the news is equally cheer
ing. In Allegheny even the majority for
the Radicals will be greatly reduced, and
it is confidently expected will be over
balanced by the Democratic majority in
Philadelphia.
Berks will overbalance Lancaster, and
have 1000 to spare, while the Democratic
majorities in Northampton, Monroe, Car
bon, Schuylkill, and other Democratic
counties, will be unprecedentedly large.
Shall Little Cambria be behind her
sister counties in the grand battle for the
safety of the country and the freedom Of
the citizen? Let her past glorious history
forbid it.
No! the mountains are on fire with
enthusiasm, and will teach the oppressors
Of our race that here, on the Alleghenies,
is the last place on earth where the people
will sleep calmly over their wrongs.
Arouse, then, once more ye gallant
Cambrians-sons of the mountain county
and teach those who would degrade
you to the level of an inferior race, that
you are too intelligent to be deceived, and
100 honest to be bought

In one of the Radical stronpbolds

In one of the Radical strongholds of
Centre county the Radical Assessor has
placed the names of three Radical negroes
or the poll list, and an attempt will be
made to vote them. The Radicals hav-
ing the election board this may be done
Many negroes voted in Ohio last year.
This, we believe, is the first attempt to
vote them in Pennsylvania. The Radicals
will resort to any desperate game to carry
this State in October. They know how
much is staked on the result, but they
can not save themselves even by negro
votes. The white men of the keystone
State want change, and they are bound
to have it.
