QUEER, Amt IT?.-As our Presidential
candidate is soldier, and one of the most
successful soldiers of the age, it suits the
convenience of the Blair men Blair, how
ever, being also a sort of soldierl to keep
bawling at the top of their voices that if
Grant should be elected we must prepare
for military despOtism. This objection
comes from a party processing to be the
identical party which nominated Gen. Jack
son for the Presidency, and, by the sheer
force of his military popularity, elected him
1t comes from party considerable num-
bers of which, in its National Convention,
voted for soldier Itcomes from party
which, while holding its national meeting
in New York, made special, and particular,
and earnest appeals to the soldiers assem-
bled there to Join its ranks. 1t comes from
party which took to its bosom the Rebel
soldier, Wade Hampton, and the butcher
soldier, Gen Forrest 1t comes from a
party which is doing everything, honest or
dishonest, to win the soldiers vote for Sey-
mour. By what right does it suppose that
the first of all our soldiers in war will prove
the very worst in peace?

The Result-The Issue.

Before this paper reaches most OF our
readers, the result of yesterday election ID
this State viii be announced throughout the
lenwth and breadth OF the land. What that
result is. is mere conjecture at the present
writing, but we have little doubt 1t will be
favorable to the Republican nominees. 1t
it is adverse to our candidates, that verdict
was obtained by frauds upon the ballot box
through forged naturalizations and the i'm
portation of voters from other States.
But, let the result by what i may in this
election, Pennsylvania ,cW cast her electoral
vote for Grant and Colfax in November.
The issue presented by the two parties, in
their platforms, will warrant no other decis
ion at the hands of the law abiding and
peace-loving people of this great Common
wealth. Aud what IS that issue? The De
mocratic platform declares:
1--WE regard the reconstruction acts (so-
called OF Congress, as such, as usurpa-
"pations, and unconstitutional, revolution
airy, and void,
And, Frank P. Blair, their candidate for
Vice President, says:
There is but one way: . for the Presi-
dent elect to declare these acts null and
void, compel the army to undo its usurpa-
. tons in the South, disJerse the carpet
bag governments, and allow the white
people to re-organize their own govern
ments. We MUST have a President who

Which do the people prefer? If they elect

sowed on Senator Grimes, the Io,ca State

en- cause for these blarneyings of new found

We have the most reliable assurances that
Mr. Grimes has great aversion to this
false praise; that he is an ardent supporter

REACTION IN CoNNECTICUT.-The town
elections in Connecticut on Monday a week
(Oct 6th,) show decided reaction if the
Republicans since last spring. 1t is useless
for the Democrats to say there is nothing in
these local elections, or that they only reflect
the sentiments of the people upon local
questions without regard TO national topics.
In crisis ike the present, on the, as we
are, of momentous Presidential election,
these little signs indicate the bent Of the
popular sentiment upon the great issues Of
the hour The great Republican gain Of
LOO in the city of New Haven is especially
significant. Altogether, we are boand to
take this result in Connecticut as the ap-
proach Of the immense tidal wave which
will sweep over the whole country in favor
of Grant in November next. The official
vote so far as received indicates that the
Republicans have carried the State by near
ly 1000 majority.

THE PUBLIC DEBT-Despite the gloomy
representations with which the public have
been favored for the past few days by the
Democratic papers, the statement of the
public debt on the first of October, shows a
decrease of four millions nine hundred thou
sand dollars. The apparent decrease is S97O,-
594, ,OS, but as four millions in bonds were
issued TO the Pacific railroads which should
not properly be accounted as Indebtedness,
since they are secured by the most valuable
railroad property in the world, twill be seen
that this sum should be deducted from the
total. 1t is expected that the next month
iy state ment will show heavy decrease.
