RACK TO FIRST PRINCIPLES
B OOTS AND SHOES
OF MY OWN MANUFACTURE.
WHAT ! MAKE | CAN WARRANT /!

After an experience of more than year in
the sale of Eastern made work, during which
time have expended more than the profits in
repairing rips and tares, have determined to
come back to first principles and hencelorth
conhne myself to the manufacture of BOOTS
and SHOES for Men, Youths, Ladies and Miss
es, and am now better prepared than ever to
give entire satisfaction in my business.
| have at present in my employ a competent
corps OF workmen, ard can say without fear of
contradiction that | can turn out as neat and
substantial Boots and Shoes at as MODERATE
PRICES as can be made anywhere in the State
L am having Boots made of the finest French
Calfskin, and within the past month or two
have had orders pouring in upon me from II
quarters for this kind of work. The material
in these Boots is the best TO be found in til !.
market, and the wormanship, both in neatness
and strength, cannot be excelled at any other
establishment in the country.
MY TRAIN ALWAYS ON TINE
All work will be ready for delivery at the
time promised. Weddings, visits and 9th er in
teresting or important occurrences need not be
postponed through any failure on my part to
come to time.
Good work and moderate prices is my motto,
and one trial will convince any person that the
motto is well chosen
~ ReI airing of Boots and Shoes attended
to promptly and in a work manlke manner
Thankful for past favors feel confident that
my work and prices will commend me to a con
tinuance and increase of the same.

New IDEA.--One of our jokers the other
day, on reading the deaf his in a down eastern
paper, and seeing the ages of many on the list
to be eighty and upward, said he couldn't see
how people afforded to live to such a great age
he wasn't but thirty, and hadn't enough
money to hold out much louger these hard
times This individual should buy what he
needs at r. r. Davis store. A little money
goes a long way at that establishment.

ARRESTED ON A SERIOUS CHARGE-Thos.
Mullaly,s resident of Washington township,
was arrested on Thursdayilast and brought to
the Jail In this place, charged, on oath Of
his brother-in- law, with having caused the
death of his wife in December, 1865. It
appears that Mrs. Muilaly was burned to
death by carbon oil at the time stated. but
the misfortune was always supposed to have
been the result of accident, and the prosecu-
tion at this late day excites much curiosity
and comment in the neighborhood in which
the sad tragedy occurred. TIE case will
come before our Court for trial NEXT week,
and 1t will then be seen whether there is
anything in the evidence to convict the
prisoner of SO terrible crime as the one
charged in the indictment.

Does any one suppose that the Demo

ed TO them but which we have not
ELECTED nor heightened 7 But what has
been the example Of the Radical press ?
Their charges against Seymour are the
fruits Of their OWE invention, contradicted
by thousand proofs, and sustained by
none. He did not support the govern
ment, they cry when the gushing thanks
of Lincoln aud Stanton express their sense
of his services. 1t is true, be quelled a
formidable riot but then he used the old
formula of civil magistrates, and spoke to
the excited people as "my friends" Ter
rible charges these the fruits, indeed, of
political calumny But the charges against
Grant cannot be thus traced to his poiiti>

CONGRATULATIONS ADDRESS

DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE RooMs,l
9Ol ARCH STREET, PHLA.
To the Democracy of Pennsylvania:
The sturdy Democracy of Maine have
covered themselves with glory.
In the very citadel of Radicalism they
demonstrated that you are upon the eve o!
magnificent victory.
The two parties were last arrayed at
the polls upon national issues in 1866.
Maine then polled vote nearly equal to
her vote of 1864, whilst Pennsylvania
poIled her largest vote.
In 1866 Radicalism received in Maine
69,637 votes In 1868 it receives, as they
themselves estimate, 5,OO2 votes. This
is an increase Of 8 per cent upon the vote
of 1866.
In 1866 Democracy there received Al, >
947 votes, and IN 1868 it receives SIS, 725
votes. This is an increase of 80 per cent.
upon the vote of 1866.
la 1866 Radicalism receives in Penn
sylvania 307 PA votes, and Democracy
received 100000 votes.
Apply the test of Maine to this vote
and Radicalism will receive in Pennsyl-
vania an increase of 8 per cent or "a. .581
votes, making total Of 33l,855 votes,
and Democracy will receive an increase Of
80 per cent, OF 81, ops votes, making a
total of 377, l24 Democratic votes, shows
ing that we will have clear Democratic
majority of As, ,269 votes.
Whilst the totals shown by this estimate
are too large for the vote that we will cast
IN October, no man who knows the condi-
ton of public sentiment in Pennsylvania
will assert that the relative proportion will
be lessened.
Maine voted for John C. Fremont, yet
James Buchanan was elected President,
and Pennsylvania led the column Of States
that made him the Chief Executive of the
nation.
The hope of the Republic is in the De-
moeracy of the Keystone.
AS in 1856, the responsibility Of deter
mining the contest now rests with you.
Maine has proven that you can again
bring triumph to the principles you love.
Let ns arouse to renewed energy and
more determined effort.
BY order Of the Democratic State Com
mittee
WILLIAM A. WALLACE,
Chairman.
The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1868-09-24

From every section Of Pennsylvania, as
Indeed from all parts Of the country, come
the most cheering indications of great
Democratic victories in October and No
vember next. Everywhere Democratic
meetings are being more largely attended
than they have been for years, and in near
ly every election district prominent and
influential men who have heretofore acted
against US, are now with US, and their in
huence and example cannot but induce
many others to vote with us when election
day comes around. These changes are
numerous and widespread, and with their
aid our triumph In this State at the Octo>
Der election is beyond the shadow of doubt,
if proper effort is only made to get out the
full Democratic vote. This is the one
thing needful, and no Democrat should
rest content on election day until this duty
is thoroughly accomplished.

Keep 1t Before the People.

In view Of the approaching election IN
this State, on the 18th of next month, it
is important that the people should have
a full understanding of what Radical rule
has cost them during the few years that
party has had control of the governmental
7 affairs of this Commonwealth, and this
understanding may be obtained by Pc
rusal Of the following facts and figures fur
nished by the Harrisburg Patriot We
! cannot conceive how any honest man can
read such damns5le proofs of Radical mis-
rule, corruption and dishonesty, and then
| 90 to the polls and cast his vote IN favor OF
thai swiudling policy which has and Is
| costing the Taxpayers of our State such
| an immense sum 10 maintain. But here
are the charges and specifications, briefly
presented, and not one of them can be
tru;hfulIy denied or explained away. We
! hope our Democratic friends Will ponder
these facts well, and then hand them to
their Republican neighbors for perusal and
consideration.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE that
since the Radicals have had possession of the
I State Government SIXTY-FIYEM MILLIONS
| OF DOLLARS have been received at the
/ State Treasury, only four millions of which
| have becn applied TO the payment OF the
State debt.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE that
since the radicals came into possession OF
the State Government, TWENTY-FIVE
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS were received
at he State Treasury, which under the law,
should have gone into the Sinking Fund for
the payment of the State Debt, and that
TWENTY-ONE MILLIONS of that sum
went soIneW here else.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE that
the Radicals have increased the rate of in-
terest on the State Debt from AZ and to 8
per cent, making the interest S202 600 per
annurn more than it was under Democratic
rule.
KEEP 1T BEFORE THE PEOPLE that
during the ten years Of Radical asceudancy
in the Legislature. the expenses Of that body
were ONE MILLION, ONE HUNDRED
AND TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
more than the preceding ten years Of Demo
cratic ascendaGcy.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE that
the Auditor Generals Office, under Hart
ranft, has cost nearly $40, 900 more than IN
der his predecessors.
KEEP IT BEFORE TIE PEOPLE that
the Radical Auditor General, Hartranft, and
the Radical State Treasurer, Hemble, paid
out to special committees Of the Legis ature.
nearly $4,000. last year, in defiance Of the
law furbiGdIDg the same.
KEEP IT BEF, RE- THE PEOPLE that
General Hartranft, Mr.. Xembe, the Radi-
cal State Committee. not single Radical
newspaper in the State DARES DENY
1 THESE FACTS.
KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE that
we will forfeit one thousand dollars to Audi
tor General HaTtranft, or any other Radical,
if, upon public investigation. before an
impartial tribunal, the above statements are
found not TO be true.

Look at the Figures.

The Radicals are just now throwing up
their bats in great glee over the result of
the Maine election, and vary their rejoic-
ings with an occasional allusion to the re
cent election in Vermont Both these
elections, our Radical friends would have
US believe, resulted in great triumphs for
them, but the real facts are that they sus-
tanned very heavy losses in both cases, as
indeed ttey have in all elections which
have occurred throughout the country
within the past year or two The follow
ing States are the only ones which have
voted during the present year, and if the
Radicals can draw any consolation from
a comparison of the figures with those of
the year 1866, they are certainly welcome

Az Incident or THE GREAT EARTH
QUAKE Gen. fitzpatrick, L. 5. Minister
II China. reports the following singular
and horrible sight that occurred at AREA,
in connection with the earthquake:
AS the earth opened and yawned. there
came up ire hundred nlll1auaiss, who stand
in long lines facing the sea, every one Of
the skeletons IT perfect pre- servation, the
hands doubled up anJ supporting the chin,
the kness drawn up aad the feet supp. r.
ing the ieshless body. This must be one
of the most frightful sights possible, and
quite beyond description The spot where
these mummies now stand was once an
old cemetery, some ninety years ago, it Is
said, and these skeletons are doubtless the
f.bled Incas and Indians, who either
burieda themselves altue, Cor were inferred
in this manner. They correspond exactly
to the old mummies Of the Incas, which
l described in former letter as among
the curiosities to be seen in the Museum
of Lima. AS the ground receded, what
a ghastly spectacle, amid the throes of the
earthquake, the coming up again to earth
of these long buried skeleton remains

STATE FAIR.-The Pennsylvania State
Fair, which will be held at Harrisburg, com
mencing Tuesday Sept. 29th, and continuing
four days. promises to be one of unusual in
terest, and the largest ever held IN this
State
We are informed By the Secretary that
the balls, buildings, and numerous sheds arc
already erected, and other Improvements are
rapidly being pushed to completion.
Preparation Of Grounds grounds,
containing seventy acres, are beautifully
located north-we Of Harrisburg City, on
the east branch Of the Susquehanpa river,
within view Of the State Capitol a short
distance from the upper station on the Penn
sylvania Railroad, to which point Passer eer
Trains will he run at very short intervals ;
and also within half mile Of the termination
of tie Passenger Railway. Two large well
enclosed Halls, Ga by 80 feet, have been
erected for the reception OF fne articles.
Tive Tents, 10 by 80 feet have been put
up-one for the floral department, aud the
other for fruits, vegetables, farm products,
household articles, &c; and 800 feet Of she'd
ding for the display Of carriages, machinery,
and agricultural implements; stalls for
horses and cattle, capable of holding $50
head, together with numerous pens for
sheep and swine.
Floral H1A.-Floral Hall will be laid out
in beautiful garden and landscape scenery
ornamented with central lake, fountains Of
spray. and revolving jets, and interspersed
with rockery patches Of sbubbery and wild
fowers-a.l combining to form a most
pleasing and interesting retreat for visitors.
EAtTIeS.-Numerous entries have already
heen made, and much of the space already
allotted to exhibitors in fact more entries
have already been made than has occurred
at so early date at any former exhibition.
The I'rdck.-The Track for the ins pectiOn
and exhibition of horses, and trials of speed.
is one of the best arranged mile tracks in the
State. Owing 10 the numerous liberal
premiums offered for horses from improved
and thorough bred sires, many of the best
animals in this and the adjoining States, are
already entered for competition. Some ex-
citing contests of speed will be had between
horses held and used as farm stock or road
sters during the progress of the Fair.
T'ranspOrtation.-A for exhibition,
including live stock, are carried by all the
principal railroads charging full freight
rates going to the fair, and returning them
free to all stations from whence shipped.
Excursion TJcketS.-Al the principal
railroads in this State will issue excursion
tickets at reduced rates, good during the
week of the exhibition, as published upon
the large railroad posters. Any further in
{ rmatIon can be obtained by addressing or
applying TO a. B. LONGAKER.

From the above statement 1t will be
seen that the Democracy have gained IN
seven small States no less than 81 ,O35 on
the vote of 1866. On the vote of 1867
we have an aggregate gain in the States
above named of 10, 453, notwithstanding
the Radicals are growing Justify over the
increased majority in Maine as compared
with their majority last year, when local
issues divided and demoralized their party
Such ratio of increase in other States of
the Union will leave the Radical party go
far in the background that it can never
again enter the lists as political organi-
zation.
