Address Of the Pennsylvania State Com.
mittcc OH the Maine Election.

10 the Democracy Of Pennsylvania:
The sturdy Democracy Of Maine have
covered themselves with glory
In tho very citadel of Radicalism they have
demonstrated that you are upon the eve of
magnificent victory.
Tho two parties were last arraycd at tho
polls upon national issues in 1866. Maine
then polled vote nearly equal to her vote of
1864, whilst Pennsylvania pollcd her largest
vote.
In 1866, Radicalism received in Maine
G9,G:;7 votes. In 1868, it receives, rs they
themselves estimate, 1902 votes This is
an increasc of s per cent. upon the vote Of
1866.
In 1866, Democracy there received III ,947
votes, and in 1868 it received 55,725 votes
vote of 1866.
In 1866 Radcalism received in Penn
sylvania 3O7 ,274 votes and Democracy re-
ccivcd 290,O0G votes.
Apply the test of Maine to this vote, and
Radicalism will receive in Pennsylvania an
increase OF per cent. or ~ ,30l votes, max
ing total Of 331 ,S55 votes, and Democracy
will receive an increase Of 30 per cent, or
S7,O2S votes, making total Of 377 1 124 Dem
, ocratic votes showing that VIC will have a
clear Democratic majority of 40 ,260 votes.
Whilst tho totals shown by this estimate are
too large Tor the vote that We will cast in Oc-
tobcr, no man who knows the condition of pub
lie sentiment in Pennsylvania will assert that
the relative proportion will be lcssencd.
| Maine voted for John c. Fremont, yet
James Buchanan was elected President, and
Pennsylvania led the colnmn of States that
made him the Chief Executive Of the nation.
The hope Of the Republic is in tho Demo
cracy Of the keystone. aaa
AS in 1886, the responsibility Of determin.
ing the contest now rests with YOU.
Maine has proven that you can again bring
triumph to the principles you love. S,l !.

determined effort. 500 d 4, :! yGg ,l-rs !,

Cheering Democratic Prospects.

The New I Ork World says
No person can watch the developments
around him without becoming convinced that
there is large class who, for several years past,
have voted the Republican ticket, who will this
year vote the Democratic There is a feeling
among large class of non-partisans, who voted
with the Republicans during the war, that a
change will produce beneficial result. They
believe that the time for military rule to cease
has arrived and furthermore, that if the Rad
icals succeed this year there will be no end to
the revolutionary schemes that they will pro-
pose and carry out Their success will be taken
by the leading Jacobins to mean full endorse
ment of all their extreme measures, and they
will become rampant The business interest of
the country is now for a change. The mechan-
les and laboring men are becoming tired of
spending their time and labor for the benefit of
the revoutionists who are keeping the country
in turmoil and unsettled condition, in order
that they may profit by a continuation of an
excessive expenditure Of money. Democracy
OF to-day means opposition to the corruption,
proHigacy and revolutionary measures of the
Radicals, and those opposed to those measures
compose large ajority of the people of the
country In vain the Radicals will labor to
prove to the contrary. Radicalism to-day
means military rule, oppressive taxation, profit
gate expenditures, deprecated currency and
dlctatorial power concentrated at Washington.
On the other hand, Democracy of to-day means
the supremacy Of the civil law over the mill
tary, economy in all expenditures and reduc.
ton Of taxation. Is there any person who
doubts upon which side majority Of the peo-
nile stands on these issues -

The Israelites and General Grant.

The Israelites of Memphis, of all political
stripes, lately held a large and enthusiastic
meeting, and without dissenting voice,
adopted series of resolutions denunciatory of
General Grant and of his famous order No. II
issued against the Israelites on the 18th De-
cember, 1862. We subjoin some of the reso
lutions
Resolved, That we, the Israelites of the city
of Memphis, do believe that the said u. S.
Grant has, by the said order, shown himself to
be man unfit for the high position to which
he aspires, and incapable of administering the
laws to all classes with impartiality and without
prejudice.
Resolved, That we, each and every one, in
dividually and collectively, as Israelites who
have respect for our honor and our religion,
pride in our race and love for our country do
pledge ourselves to use every honorable means
in our power to defeat the election of the said
u. s. Grant
Resolved, That this meeting is not called for
any political or party purpose, but solely to de-
feat the man who has, by his Order No. IL, in
suited the whole Jewish race.
Resolved, That we exhort and admonish our
brethren in this and all other cities and towns
in the United States, as they value religious
liberty and their rights, to do all in their power
to defeat the said Ulysses S. Grant.

The Electoral College Bill.

The iniquity Of this bill is laid bare by the
New York Herald, which, by the way, we may
remark, has ceased to abuse Gov! Seymour and
said nothing n4favor Of Grant, for some days
past 1t may be that the Herald begins to see
that its advocacy of Grant and the party that
has made him its leader, does not promise as
we'll as it at first supposed. There are other
evidences in addition to that furnished by the
ominous silence Of the Herald, which induce us
to believe that the New York nominations are
growing stronger every day.
! But to the remarks of the Herald, which are
certainly as severe on the Radical Grant Con-
gress as any thing that we have seen lately.
Speaking of this Electoral College bill, the
Herald says:
by its provisions Congress is, perhaps, to
have the power to make the next President, for
it defines which States shall vote and which
shall not This is the power to say who the
man shall be, and zoe know too much of the
present Congress to fancy that 1t soiU scruple at
any assumption of po,oer merely because 1t an
uolres an incasiom of the peoples rights. The
bill in regard to the electoral vote ordains that
Congress shall not count the vote from any
State that is not previously represented in that
body. At the time of the adjournment of this
session there will still be several States in that
category, and when Congress assemblies again
it will be known how the neople of those States
have voted Congress will be governed by that
fact in what it does in relation to those States If
they have voted for the democratic candidate,
no power on earth will get their representatives
in and those votes will be lost unless there shall
be sufficient majority on the other side to
nullify them. In that case they will be taken
in to make show of fairness If, on the other
hand. any State Of those out shall have gone
with the republicans and its vote shall be neces-
sary to win, no inquiry in the shape of con-
stitution will keep it out This is the plan. By
this the people may see that Congress deliberate
ly prepares pretext to defeat the popular will
if that will should not suit the republicans, and
by the assumption Of power to declare what
States shall participate in the choice of Pres
ident practically makes itself the arbter of that
choice And on this subject Mr.. johnson =
argument is correct Necessary as it may be
that the question of what ex-rebel States shall
vote shall be definitely settled, the law leaves
their votes completely at the will Of Congress,
to be rejected or accepted even as the result is
unfavorable to or in favor of the dominant ma
jority. There is no security that the decision
of the Southern States now entitled to repre-
sentation will be respected. That depends up
on how they vote and who they vote fo7.

The proposition is to buy out that self. sacri-
fcing patriot Hunnicutt, who once objected to
the enjoyment of Church privileges by the ne
groes, for the sum of S., 900, and then to COL
lect capital of $50, 900 by subscription. This
