POISONOUS WoRM-The Decatur (Ill. J
Republican of late issue. contains the fol
lowing: People at this season should look
out for the large worm which infests the to-
mato vine. Its sting is deadly poison 1t
is of green color, two or three inches long,
and as large as man finger. AT Red
Creek. Wayne county, few DAYS ago, a SER
want girl, while gathering tomatoes, received
a puncture from one of these worms. which
createda sensation similar to that of bee
sting. In a short time the poison renetra-
ted to every part of her system. and she was
thrown into spasms which ended IN death. >

Gov. GEARY.-The New York Herald
says: Gov. Geary is the strongest man
"the Republicans have. He carried the
''State on full vote in 1866 by 10000 ma.
'.jority. -. The days of Copperheadisu
came to an end last November. The
Herald ought to be pretty good authority
in the Democratic camp; and, by the above
it virtually acknowledges the defeat ot
Packer and Pershing in October next. Re
member the prediction.

GUBERNAroRIALQ QUALIFICATIONS. Our
friends Clyde and Wilhelm can now look
up-one or the other of them may get the
next Democratic nomination for Governor.
Asa Packer having been an Associate Judge
and member of the Epispocal Church,
has been nominated. Of course his money
had nothing TO do with it. therefore le
Clyde and Wilhelm pitch in.

WHEN Gen. Rosecrans commanded Union
soldiers he had poor opinion of Copper
heads. 1t was he who sent Vallandigham
across the lines over into rebeldom, to the
great disgust of Copperheads generally. As
he has now been nominated by that party
for Governor Of Ohio, it may pertinently be
asked: Has Rosecrans gone over 10 the
Copperheads, or have the Copperheads
gone over to Rosecrans?

The Democracy of Virginia are fearful
that Walker, the newly elected Governor,
will prove on their hands much more than
they bargained for, as he is believed to be
in opposition to their politics, as well as to
several pet railway schemes already under
way. They propose to elect him to the Uni
ted States Senate for the long term and
thus dispose of his influence in State mat

One of the greatest slurs ever cast into
the face of Union soldier is the seventh
article in the new Democratic platform
that our soldiers and sailors must be crate
fully remembered, &c-and the nomina,
ton of Asa Packer over two brave soldiers,
Generals Hancock and NJ Candies. Such
palayer is disgusting.

INCREDULoUs-Ther are some folks
who strenously deny that it cast 500, 600 TO

The RAILROAD CANDIDATE. Asa Pack
er is emphatically the Railroad candidate.
The New Yorkers achieved a victory in his
nomination, and revenged the Fort Wayne
and Chicago lease to the Penn'a Central.
The man who votes for Asa Packer, simply
votes for the New York railroads, and a.
gainst the interests of his own State.

JUsT So The Democracy are slow to
learn wisdom from experience. Last year
they were sanguine of carrying the State,
but the result was defent. So it will
be now. Neither their boasts. nor their
candidates millions, will save them from
defeat in October next

The Registry Law.

The enforcement of the Registry Law, for
Pennsylvania, now declared constitutional,
should claim the attention of every good
citizen who desires to stop cheating and
have fair elections, no matter to what party
he belongs. The Law is in no respect par
tisan in its character. 1t falls upon all
alike. 1t protects the interests of both par
ties by insuring to each representative in
every election board. The theory OF the
Law is that every duly qualified voter
should be secured in his right of suffrage,
and those only who are not qualified to vote
under our State law, should be debarred
the privilege. 1t is we'll said by Judge
Agnew, in behalf of the majority of the
Court:
''The election is not free and equal where
the true electors are not separated from the
false where the ballot is not deposited in
safety, or where it is supplanted by fraud.
1t is, therefore, the duty of the Legislature
to secure freedom and equality by such reg
ulations as will exclude the unqualified and
allow the qualified only to vote.
And again

stantly changing, and men are often un-
known to their next door neighbors where
large number is floating upon the rivers
and the sea, going and returning, and in
capable of Identification where low inns,
restaurants, and boarding houses constantly
afford the means of fraudulent additions to
the lists of voters, what rule of sound reason
or of constitutional law forbids the Legisla-
ture, from providing a means to distinguish
the honest people of Philadelphia or else
where from the rogues and vagabonds who
would usurp their places and rob them of
their rights.
Nobody can object to this who does not
want to cheat, either for his..own purposes or
those of his party, and the Democratic pa
pers that are bowling against the law, vir-
tually admit that their party has done all
the cheating at elections heretofore. and
think it essentially necessary to do so in the
future in order to win success
