The Elections.

One week from to-day, pennsylvania,
Ohio, and Indiana, hold their state cleo
lions, in which is embraced also election
for members of Congress. Each party
is fully in the icld-each state has been
thoroughly canvasscd, and the issues
are fairly before the people, In many
instances rival candidates have discus
scd principles from the same platform
alternating in time. This has had the
effect OF bringing large crowds together,
of Republicans and Democrats, to hear
their respective candidates, thus enabl-
ing them to compare facts and argu-
ments as set forth, and preparing the
way forthc formation OF an enlightened
opinion upon the great ISSUES now before
the American people, 1t is n fact
worthy Ol notice, that while the ltcpub-
Leans have placed as candidates for the
sullraScs of the people men Of the most
intense loyalty, the Democrats have
brought out those of the most intense
disloyalty, and in many Instances, men
who gloricd IN the defeat OF the army
10y the rebels, and wept when Grant
took Nickshurg and compelled Lee to
surrender at AppOnattoN. Nallandi-
CHAM, the traitor, is arrayed again,t
Gen. rchcnk, who fought most gallant
~ to save the nation from being over
thrown; and, strange rs ii may seem,
men are found who will support the
traitor in preference to him who fought
so calamity to suppress and overthrow
treason. The result Of the elections in
the states above named will bc watched
with great interest.

When the PLANTATION BITTERs were first
made known to the American people some seven
years ago, it was supposed they were an entirely
new thing, and had never before been used.
SO far as their general use in the United States
is concerned, this may be true. 1t is also true
that the same Bitters were made and sold in tho
Island of ST. Thomas, over forty years ago, as
any old planter, merchant or sea captain doing
business w.th the Hcsi Iadj,s will tell you. It
is distinctly within my recollection that o. the
return OF my her (who was sea captain, and

We commend TO our Democratic
friends The following for their reflection.
Read and remember, that this Toomhs
is the same ChiValrOus Shareholder who
boosted he would call The roll of his
slaves on Bunker Hill and jeff Davis,
the pet of the South, who was captured
10y Yankee soldiers IL he was moving
away from Richmond i'm petticoats and
crinoline. The same spirit of hatred
they had when they uttered their trea-
son still lives in the South, and no acts
of kindness from the North serves to
molly their resentment to Northern
men. But read the following, and know
that the election Of Seymour and Blair
will be followed by bloodshcd and sor-
row to our land:
WHAT THEY SAID DURING THE WAR.
On the 18th of August following, Robert
Toombs, of Georgia, said, in n letter dated
Washington, Georgia:
81 can conceive Of no extremity to viii Ii my
country could be reduced in which would, for
a single moment, entertain any proposition for
any union with the North on any terms
whatever. " hen all else is lost | propose to
unite with the thousands ofmy own country
men who have found honorable deaths, if not
graves, on the battlefield.
In January, 1868, Jefferson Davis said, in a
speech at Richmond, rs reported in the
Richmond EpqHrer, january I, of that
year
"You fight the oiiscourings ofthe earth. If the
question were proposed to you whether you
would combine with hyenas or Yankees trust
