NATIONAL REPUBLICAN TICKET
FOR PRESIDENT,
Gen. ULYSSES s. GRANT,
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
Hon, SCHUYLER O0LFAX.
A Meek Gray-Baok

There is paper published in Bellefonte,
ycleped The Democratic Watchn,an, edited
by an insignificant little whiffet who calls
himself P. Gray Meek, and very appro-
pirate name it is, forvery gray is Peter
so gray that he is and has been through
out the rebellion ''gray- back. This sheet,
which is weak imitation of the La Crosse
Democrat, quotes an item from our last
number, calling attention to the advice of
the Savannah Aduertissr to its patrons, to
drive out of the city all men, white or col
ored, who voted the Republican ticket, and
makes it the subject of leading editorial.
The little Peter raves, and rants, and howls,
and threatens like any other little monkey
that has had its tail pinched, avowing
his determination and intention to scratch if
he ever gets chance.
He not only fully endorses the sentiment
of the Advertiser, but exclaims Wait awhile
until justice comes nearer home !" which
means that the valorous Peter would like to
pie of Centre county who made him behave
himself when the rebel in him cropped out
too plainly during the war. If Justice"
had been done then, he would have been
sent to lunatic asylum and kept therefor
he is certainly not fit to be at large
He is pretty specimen to prate of "wid-
ows and orphans, and graves filled by
our intolerance" The only widows and
orphans in this county made during the war
are those of the gallant soldiers who gave
their lives for that country that p Gray
Meek and his rebel friends were striving to
destroy and the only GRAVES filed" were
those of soldiers and Government officers
foully murdered by rebels and rebel sympa-
thisers.
"Dirty prison pens and bastiles, forsooth
How many brave and gallant men were starv-
ed and murdered at Andersonyille and Lib
by, in consequence of the conduct of such
wretches as P. Gray Meek in advising resist
ance to the draft, and throwing every i'm
pediment in the way Of the Government in
the prosecution of the war? There is no
prison pen too foul and none too dirty
for the miscreant who could enjoy the pro-
lection Of his country's flag, and at the same
time use every means in his power to trail it
in the dust; no 'bastile' too strong or toe
dark for the wretched traitor who could aid
by all the means within his reach, the enc.
mics of his country to butcher, starve, and
destroy the gallant men who were fighting
in its defence. P. Gray Meek is the last
person who should pirate about widows, and
orphans, and gravesr

The Bows in Blue.

The Soldiers and Sailors National Con-
vention assembled in Chicago on Tuesday
the 10th inst Gov. Fairchild of Wiscon-
sin presided. 1t was large and enthusias
tic convention.
Gen. Logan. Chairman of the Committee
on Resolutions, reported as follows:
RESOLVED, that The Soldiers and Sailors,
steadfast now as ever to the Union and the
Flag, fully recognize the claims of Gen. u
LYssEs s. GRANT to the confidence of the
American people; and believing that the
victories achieved under his guidance in
war, will be now illustrated by him in times
OF peace by such measures as shall secure
the fruits of our exertions, and restoration
OF the Union upon loyal basis, we declare
1t is our deliberate conviction, that he is the
choice of the Soldiers and Sailors of the
Union for the office of President of the IT,
nited States.
Res0tced, That in the maintenance OF
those principles which un6erlie our Govern.
ment and for which we fought during four
years of war, we pledge our earnest and ac-
tive support to the Republican party, as the
only political organization which, in our
Judgment, is true to the principles OF loyal.
ty, liberty, and equality before the law.
Resolred, That, speaking for ourselves and
the soldiers aud sailors who imperiled their
lives to preserve the Union, we believe that
the impeachment of Andrew johnson by
the House of Representatives, for high
crimes and misdemeanors in office, and his
trial before the United States Senate, have
presented unmistakeable proofs of his guilt,
and that whatever may be the judgment of
the tribunal before which he is arraigned,
the rerdict of the people IS ''gutIty;" and we
regard any Senator who has voted for ac-
quittal as falling short of the proper dis
charge of his duty in this hour of the Ma.
tion's trial, and as unworthy of the conf
deDce of the people.
Resolued, That the Soldiers and Sailors
recognize no difference between native and
adopted citizens, and they demand that the
Government protect the naturalized citizen
abroad as we'll as those of native birth.
After the reading of the third resolution
every delegate rose to his feet and gave three
hearty groans for Andrew johnson and the
.traltorous" Republican Senators, while
the band played the "Rogues March. y
On motion of Gen. W. NJ Gregg of New
York, the resolutions were unanimously
adopted amid cheers for Grant.

manity and justice: in the name of the Ma
tional Union Republican party, nominate
