Tho exciting sccncs and partisan
anmosliics incidcnt TO a Presidential
election are over aud the Democratic
party is in a measure defeated The
result is not what We had hopcdi but
as General Grant has promised us
Peace, in the event Of his election,
We are contcnt-proyidcd he goes
about il In a manner becoming his
position.
Our defeat In October lost us two
hundred votes in this county at the
late election. Yet, with the cnthusi.
asm Of a great political victory, the
enemy gained but t,rcaty votes on us
The poll in October was 4 4,032-Dem-
ocratic, 3,037 Radical, l,s95-and in
November 5,070-Democralic, S,006 I;
Radical, 1874. This shows a gain Of
fffy-niRe votes for the Democrats and
sercnty-nine for the Radicals, being a
loss of but tloenty to the former The
table elsewhere shows the vote in de-
tail Brady is the only one of the
large districts that showed any real
vitality. Some of the smaller districts
acquitted themselves nobly; among
them Curwensville, Ferguson, Goshen,
Penn and Union. Had the rccupera.
tive power of these districts been sec
onded by Bell, Clearfeld, Graham,
Jordan, Lumber City and Woodward,
our county would have stood in the
front column of the "Union Savers"
The fault Of our losing ground is our
own and not that of the enemy. Our
friends became discouraged over the
result OF the October contest, and in
many instances preferred to remain
at home on the Sd, and prepare 10
rout the enemy the next time. But
few counties in the State acquitted
themselves better than Clearfeld.
The Democrats Of New York and
New Jersey, surrounded by defeat,
accomplished a glorious work, elect
ing their Governors and gaining sew
eral members of Congress, and one, if
not two, U. S. Senators, in the room
of Morgan and Frelinghuysen. We
hope to see Seymour and Stockton
occupy the seats of those two celebra-
ted "loilists."

THE NEXT CoNGREss The Forty.
first Congress will be composed of Ia
Radicals and 50 Democrats II is
possible the number of Democrats NAV
be increased two or three more, but
they will certainly have S5 members
in the next House of Representative.
That will strike down the two.thirds
majority, by means of which the Radi.
Gals have perpetratcd so much fraud
Should General Grant see fit TO hold
Congress TO constitutional legislation.
his vetoes can not be overridden. AS
were those of Andrew johnson. We
hope he may prove to be wise and
moderate ruler. If he should decide
TO SO act, he will be compelled TO rely
upon the Democratic minority, for we
do not believe the Radicals will volun.
tarlly pause in their mad career. The
country will look to General Grant for
an example Of moderation and true
craftsmanship. If he exercises il the
people will give him full credit, and
no portion Of the populace will more
cordially approve his acts than the
masses of the great Democratic party.

MARKET QUoTATIoNs.-The stock,

tations of California are, like those of
foreign countries, made up from an
honest (gold) estimate. While New

honest business men elsewhere quote

The latest joke perpetrated upon
Radical reconstruction down South,
is that nearly all the "intelligent con-
trabands" and "our colored brethren"
voted the Democratic ticket not.
withstanding the fact that we of the
North have been taxed thousands of
millions of dollars, within the past
three years, to keep up a standing
army of 10000 men and the Negro
Bureau down there for the purpose of
learning the "pet lambs" how TO vote
the loyal ticket. The people have
been robbed of their money by the
carpetbaggsrs, and after all "Sambo"
"wotes" the "Coppcrhead" ticket.
