Grnnfvs. blair Democracy.

We have generally supposed that Democracy
meant government OF the people, represented
by the will Of the majority. General Grant
seems to regard II in the same light, for be uses
this language;
"7his Government is a Republic in 0hich TIE wilI
Of THE PEOPLE is the Tar of The land. Ibeg thai
their roiceS may be heard.
General Frank P. Blair, who is one of the can
didates of the Democratic party, puts another
construction upon the question. He Is in favor
OF revolutions General Frank P. says:
'Thcre is but one way to restore the Govern.
ment and Constitution, and that Is for the Pres
ident elect to declare these acts null and void,
compel the army to undo its usurpations at the
South, disperse the carpet-bag governmental, and
allow the white people to reorganize their own
governments and elect senators and represen-
tatves."
General Blair seems to forget that we had a
four years war because the traitors of the South
used the same language In 1860, and carried out
their threats. Does he propose to reopen the
lssue2
Mr.. Lawrence M. Keitt, of South Carolina,
said, at the Convention in Columbia, 5. c., pre-
ylous to the Ordinance of Secession:
take your .destinies in your own hands, and
shatter this accursed Union. South CorolinO
could do II alone. But If she could not, she
could ot least throw her arms around the pillars
of the Constitution, and involve all the States in
o common ruin"
"south Carolina obeyed her counsellor. and
threw her arms around the Constitution but her
arms have been severely bruised and shattered
In the attempt. Has General Blair become O
party to new conspiracy 9--Soidiers' Friend.

Extreme Case Cured.
EFrom Req. SAC AIKEN, AAeqhang. Pa

From Rev. ISAAC AIKEN, AAeghany, Pal
Joseph Fleming, Druggist,
No. 81 Market Street, Pittsburgh
SI, Il take great pleasure in stating that, af-
ter having suffered from Dyspepsia for about
fifteen years, at some periods much more than
others, Ihave been entirely cured BY the use Of
Goes Dyspepsia Cure. My friends know that of
late years my case has been an extreme one
had great suffering from eating any kind of food
and on an average would vomit about one third
of mymeals, In q sour lndigestlble mass When
the severe attacks would come, ] would lose all
strength and be utterly helpless. Some of the
attacks would be SO severe that for days togeth-
er would not retain anything on my stomach,
save little dry toast and tea. For years knew
not what 1t was TO pass five consecutive hours
without intense pain. From the time took the
first dose Of this medicine | ceased vomiting
gradually all soreness passed away, and flesh and
strength returned, and ever since have been
able to eat any kind offood set upon the table.
Six months have now passed without any symp-
toms Of the return Of the disease. My case was
considered by all, even physicians, so marvellous,
that for time 1t was feared that 1t might be fc-
titous but am now so well convinced, that
have been not merely relieved, but permanently
cured that can eonscientlously recommend
Goes Dyspepsia Cure TO all victims of dyspepsia.

The Fourteenth Article.

BELOW we print the full text of the amend
ment to the United States Constitution, known
as article 14th, which, according to tho recent
act of Congress has become q part of the organic
law. Every Republican should read II carefully,
that he may thoroughly understand what 1t
contains,

The Everlasting Niggcr.

Tn the west the Democracy have in the con-
ventiOns invariably reiterated the determination
that this shall be white mans government.
Meaning thereby, that negroes and visible adj
mixtures shall have no part or lot IN It. The
fact that Mr.. Joseph Williams, full-booded
African, and possessed Of all the pecullarities OF
the race including the colored skin, the long
heel the kinky hair, and the disagreeable odor,
was a duly accredited delegate to the New York
convention, and as such voted regularly therein,
was an ugly one to get over for these men. But
they swallowed IL with toerabe grace.
The following we copy from the Macon (Ga.)
Telegraph, of July II.
Hundreds of colored voters were in the Sey-
mour and Blair procession, in Macon, last We'd
nesday uight, and thousands more cheered It on
with right good will. The talk about "a conflict
Of races" is all stuff The Democrats In this
canvass are going to Illustrate not acOnhict, but
a cooperation of races. We mean that somehow
between four-ffths and nine-tentls OF the Geor-
gia negroes shall vote with us, and by our side
in this election; and we mean in this to do not
the slightest violence to the negros inclination
He shall vote as he chooses, and he shall vote
for his own best interests and happiness. We
notify all carpet-baggers and adventurers at
home and abroad that we intend to try cOnclu-
sions with them on this point, and help them
selves II they can The vote of Georgia th is fall
shall be higher unit than 1t ever was before. "
We call especial attention to the fact that in
this extract the word ''nigger' does not occur.
The 'nigger" is especially spoken of as ''colOred
voter" and NEGRO, which Is decided improve
ment. 1t shows that the Abolitlonsts have not
labored in vain. Also do we invite attention to
the declaration that "the talk about the war of
races Is all stuff" We always said so. We al
ways insisted that the moment the negro was
endowed with the rights justly his, all danger Of
a conflict of races was past. Having votes, and
holding power in their hands, they would be
counted the same as other voters, have been
from the beginning and will be unto the end.
they have grown wondrously intelligent, and are
In all respects growing to be just as good as
white men. The democracy of the South are
anxious for the negro vote and therein they
show more sense than their Northern brethren.

"HTThe Democratic platform declares for
''the equal taxation Of every species OF property,
including Government bonds" Who does not
believe this Is just aud rlght.-POrtsmouh Times.
Why, the farmers, who pay no taxes
to the General Government now, but
who will have to pay heavy tax in ad-
dition to their State and county taxes,
will surely believe that "this is just and
right. The rich, who now pay all the
taxes, on their incomes, will believe that
it is just and right to saddle most of the
tax upon the farmers, merchants, and
other owners of property,

only wish that every voter in the
United States had the opportunity of
reading all the leading Democratic pa
pers in the country. would have no
fears of the result of the vote the
coming tall. The course marked out
for the party is plain enough. If Sey-
mour and Blair should be elected, and
a majority of Democrats should be
elected to the next Congress, the whole
work done since the Republican party
has had control of the Government,
would be treated as absolutely null and
void, and the country would be placed
completely under the control of the
slaveholding traitors. Slavery would
be re-established, not only in the rebel
States, but, according to the Dred
Scott decision, all over the land. There
can be no doubt that this is the pro-
gramme. 1t can be abundantly gather
ed from their papers, and the speeches
of their orators. 1t can also be seen
from the actions and votes of the party
in Congress, and more especially in the
action Of that party in the Ohio Legis-
lature last winter.
1t behooves the earnest friends of
freedom and progress to be vigilant and
active. The danger is imminent

Hard Times.

The Democrats have much to say
about hard times. This is all for po-
litical purposes. Just compare the
present condition of the times with
that OF 1889, the last of the Demo-
cratic administration. Then our fur
naces were breaking up, and laboring
men were thrown out of employment.
fhe farmers could get but little Or
nothing for their produce. The records
of our courts were filed with judg-
ments. Advertisements Of eonstables'
sales decorated the walls on every cor
ner. Universal distress prevailed Is
not this trues Have the people for
gotten thisG
How is it now? The farmers can
sell all they produce, at high price.
The furnace men can pay their hands
promptly, and geod wages. Any per-
son who has anything to sell, can get
a good price for it. Any person who
wants to work, can get constant en-
ployment, and good wages, and prompt
payment. 1t is very difficult in the
town of Jackson, to hire man to do a
days work. All who will work, have
employment And yet there is con-
stant howl about hard times, oppres-
sion, taxation, despOtiSm, radical mis-
management &c.

News ofthe Week.

There has been a terrible case Of
mob law at Seymour, Indiana. Rob
bers and outlaws had for some time
been having it all their own way. The
robbers became SO bold that they would
get upon the trains and overpower the
express agents and rob the express
companies Of large sums. Finally
three of the robbers, named Roseberry,
Ellets and Clifton, were arrested, and
while being taken to a place of con-
inement, the train was stopped, and
they were taken out and hung. In
less than a week three more of the
robbers, named Moore, Sparks and
Jerrrell, who had been arrested, were
also taken from tho cars and hung.
Gen. Rosecrans has been appoint
