AN ADMIRABLE CAMPAIGN DoCU MENT -
If we expect 10 succeed in the terrible
struggle in November, now is the time TO
prepare the people for thai tremendous
conflict. II is the duty of ell Democrats
who know the Truth themselves, TO see
to it that their less enlightened or less
fortunate neighbors are also provided
with the means of voting intelligently,
and thus saving their country from the
black pail Of MOngrelism and robbery.
The only way TO accomplish this glorious
result is by circulating magazines and
newspapers which expose and explain the
rascality Of the Mongre's. Among these
publications. none is superior to THE ON
GUARD, the September number of which
is now ready. A glance at its table Of
contents will satisfy the reader OF tho
truth Of this statement. The editor
sihroWs o bomb-shell into the Mongrel
camp, entitled "Resistanee 10 the Recon-
struGtion Acts not Unconstitutional, in
which ne lays bare to the bone the infa-
my Of these Acts. Our financial friend,
ben. Franklin" sounds the tocsin OF
war in spirit stirring poem entitled,
"HO for the Ballot-Box." DR.. Van Evrie
contributes an article entitled, plymouth
RCcA and James River" Of which it is
only necessary to say that he handles the
subject under discussion in his usual ar
gumentative, convincing and able manner.
The paper on "Ulysses s. Grant" Oontin-
ues to show cOnclusively that the appar-
ent success of that magnificent hutubug
was more the result of blunders than OF
strategy. Single copies, 25c.; 81 per
year. Van Evrie, Horton 6 Co, publish

BLEEDING.-Last year the
Mongrels of Connecticut bled
Jewell, their nominee for Gov
ernor, of only $74, 900, telling
him all through the campaign,
that money would elect him
but he was badly defeated.
The honest Radicals Of Vim
ton county tried to get a large
amount of money out of Hon.
John Fee, telling him money
would elect him, but Mr., Fee
was to sharp for the hungry
fellows on money matters
not but little was extracted
from him. This year the
Raddies are bleeding Wilson,
who owns $4,000 worth Of
bonds, to the tune of a thou
sand. Poor Wilson! 1t is
hard to be a Rad /! 1t costs
much money to get the poor
people who are worn down
with internal revenue taxa
tion to vote to keep all they
eat, drink and wear at high
prices lat pricesso high one
half the people can'tget what
their families want

Questions.

We would call the attention of
the Radical leaders to the following
questions:
If you want peace, what are you
cunning your candidate on his mill
tary merits for.
If you want impartial suffrage,
what does your platform say one
suffrage North and another South
for?
If you mean equal rights, why
one currency for capital and anoth-
er for labor?
Is it impartial suffrage to enfran-
chise the.black and disfranchise the
white man?
If the Negroes can vote of them
selves, why pay the Bureau to
teach themS
1t you moan 10 ecphomize, why
didn't you begin three years ago2
IF reconstruction is success,
why isn't the army withdrawn?
If you want peace, what are you
arming the negroes for?
As the public debt statement for
July makes the total debt S2.633,-
58S,756, how do you think the poor
laboring- men can pay it without
going half naked and starving their
wives and children
What do you think the poor men
think Of Wilson, your candidate for
Congress, who owns eighty thou
sand dollars in bonds and pays no
taxes on them and receives interest
on them in gold2
Don't you think it is high time
for every poor man to go and vote
against all the congressional robbers
and those on the ticket with them
from Grant down to Higgins2
Do you think laboring men can
conveniently give about half of
their hard earnings to bondholders
and internal tax gathers much
longer2
Why don't you tell the people
something about this unequal tax
alton in your speeches and news

THE soldier that entered

THE soldier that entered
the Union army and was so
disabled in the service as to
entitle him to a pension of $50
a year, receives six per cent.
on a capital of $1,33355.
On that same amount loaned
by the capitalist to the Gov
ernment, the bondholder re-.
ceiyes $112 per annum. The
difference arises from the fact
that the pensioner is paid in
greenbacks and the bondhold-
er in gold. The blood, limbs
and life of the soldier, loaned
to the Government, does not
bring the same return that
the money of the bondholder,
loaned to the Government,
does. Is that fair !?

The LLGAL TENDER AcT.-The
Republicans passed this law, which
repudiated all contracts made before
it in gold, and authorized their pay
ment in deprecated paper money,
worth only thirty, or forty, or fifty
cents on the dollar. The people ac-
quiesced and submitted to this vir-
tual reputation and confiscation,
and they adapted their business to
that basis. Now, when continu-
ance of this legal tender system
will benefit the people, by paying
off the bond holders in the same
currency in which the debt was
created, they are opposed to it.
Having passed the act when it was
seriously detrimental to the inter-
ests of the country, they are now
for repeating it, when its repeal
would work much injury to the
class. Their policy is to
contract to pay, and expand to bor-
row. They favored legal tenders to
pay gold in 1S62-3-4-5; but now
they refuse it and want legal ten
der debts paid in gold. The people
will hardly accommodate them.

THE Eighty Thousand Dollar Bondhold-
ing Wilson, the candidate for reelection
10 Congress who voted in Congress for the
terrible and everlasting Law, (called the
Funding BILL and for Impeachment, IA
miserable and expensive humbug) has
been spending few days in Vinton cOun-
ty asking the people to vote for him and
continue the high taxation system; to
vote for him so he can see the people con-
tinue to toll day and night 10 paJ the in
terest on his eighty THOUSAND dollars in
Bonds; 10 vote for him SO he may vote in
Congress- TO contiuu, to have a stamp put
on all the notes, deeds, medicines, matches,
&c; 10 vote for him so tina. he n ay con.
tinue 10 have the bondholde paid in gold
interest; to vote for him so he may re-
ceive ten thousand dollars for sitting in
Congress two years and voting to continue
the prese mt distressing system of internal
revenue taxation; and to vote for him 80
ho can see that the prices of coffee tea,
sugar, molssses, muslin, &c., are kept so
high that poor people have to do without.
He visited number of the townships, and
around with him went that learned, that
terrible, that sober, that immortal, that
wonderful, that "high moral idea" man
Homer (Cicero) Jones' who s'umped the
county last fall in favor of little young
niggers attending the schools with white
chiliren and in favor of niggers voting
and being candidates for State Senator
like himself; who loves..to SEQ poor women
ray the distressing taxes on every paper
of pins, spool of thread, yard Of muslin
and calico, box Of matches, ounce Of sugar
tea, coffee, spice, &c.. and who always ma
liciously and wilfully misrepresents every
thing to poor men. Both are well qualiA-
ed for the business in which they are en-
gagged. On Wednesday evening of last
week they we're billed to speak at Zaltski.
AT the appointed time the two celebrated
Grab Tax Mongrels mounted the Hotel
steps, and were soon surrounded by not
less than l5o COpperheads. Jones arose
first, and commenced speaking q. pretty
little piece. In few minutes, however,
he began to misrepresent the bond ques-
tion, when one Copperhead arose and
walked off few steps, and said: "Come
on, COpperbeads T. The one hundred and
fifty Copperheads, who were at this time
completely disgusted with his foolish
twaddle about bonds and taxation, arose
aud silently departed-leaving Jones and
the Eighty thousand dollars in bonds
drawing interest in gold almost alone.
Poor Jones Rich Bonds Bright shining
gold Interest," How they did feel How
they did twist and squirm They had
been repudiated by the poor laboring men,
who are tired of tOiling all day to pay
interest on bonds Jones apologized, and
Wilson said he would study the Bond
question and would probably return in
September and make speech The other
meetings they spoke pieces at were slimly
attended. f5a

STnRR0RN THINGS.

The Whitehall New York;
Times puts these facts before
the people:
The national debt can never
be paid under Radical rule.
Because it costs to much
to keep up a standing army
of $4,000 men.
Because it costs to much
to support millions of negroes
in idleness that they may
vote the Radical ticket.
Because it costs to much to
support the horde Of offices
the Radicals have created.
Because of an expensive
navy, which, now that Radi-
calism has destroyed our COM
merce, we have no need Of.
Because millions upon mill
ions are appropriated yearly
to forward public enterprises,
which prove only to be swim
dlers.
Because millions upon mill
ions are actually stolen yearly
from the national treasury
with as much deliberation as
any burglar or thief ever ex-
ercised his vocation.
Because the present tariff
is grinding the face of the
poor and decreasing their
ability to pay taxes,
Because the Internal reve-
nue. system is eating out the
substance of the whole land.

They holl, with a tightening grasp, the
bonds which bind the lAboring man TO
life Of slasery--Of unremitling drudgery
for the payment Of the interest in GOLD on
securities that we're bought in grsenbacks.
Bondholdersl
They are true 10 their name, and to the
principles Of their illustrious predecessor,
shylock, in demanding their pound Of
a esh, in the cutting ont Of which the life

his veins.
BondhoLdsrs
Like their great prototype Of the Bible
Pharaoh, they know no feeling Of mercy,
and although they see The sunshine shut
out from the poor mans house, the army
Of tax gathering locusts devouring the
substance Of the land, they relax not their
grasp upon the bonds with which they
have bound the people. They refuse to
recognize in the voice Of the people the
voice Of God.
BOndhOldsrsl
The bonds with which they have ensla-
we'd the energy and industry Of the nation
wore lightly al FIRST, then they CALLED, and
now they cut deep in the ftsh, but the
bondbolders heed not the groans Of those
they have enslaved- -jngling music Of the
gold, as they count over their interest,
browns all unpleasant sounds which might
disturb thee in peace.
BondholderSi
The monied aristocraoy, whose dainty
hands cannot be polluted with the greasy
greenbaoks handled BY working men.
Bright jingling gold is their currency.

The pure patriots who refuse to- accept
the currency Of their country in payment
