Col A. K. Mcclure, the chairman Of the
Liberal Republican Ssats csnmittse Of Pena-
sylvanis, addressed a large asd euthusiastic
Liberal meeting at Reading, in that State, on
Wednesday evening last, in which he thus
discoursed Of the prospects In the Old Key

"In concluding, be spoke Of the prospects 10
Pennsylvania, saying that reports from all
sections were most cheering, addiag.-In Phil

fore election day, and the boosted majority of
l1,000 to 1900 will vanish. (Cheera) So far,
In every state that has voted, the Grant loss,
compared with previous equally full votes, has
been most significant Of disaster to than. they
jollify over North Carolina because they have
manufactured Z nominal majority By fraud
where, fosr years ago, they had 5000. They
boast Of West Virginia because a Greeley man
was defeated for Governor; but they forget to
tell thata Greeley aan was elected. (Laug ter

not venture 10 rua q Grant candidate, althoa gh
four years ago they elected their Governor by

Vermont, where they have lost 5000 on any
previous vote with 30 large q poll. They are
wild with JOY over Maine, where they have
lost Is per cent Of the Grant majority, and
where the percentage Of Republican loss, fap-
piled to Pennsylvania, would beat them So :.

The Montpelier, Vermont, PATROL
takes liberal view Of the recent cleo
tions in the aforementioned States. II
says :
siConsiderate men did not expect Yer
mont or Maine to 60 for Greeley, or the
friends Of Greeley. Such thing might be
among the possible mercies Of the Almigh,
ty, but has not been among human events
that they have voted with the Democratic
party for the last twenty years. All that
could be expected Of them, by the most
sanguine friends Of Greeley, was that they
should show the drift of public sentiment
to be favorable to Greeley. Have they
done that 81

The wheat crop Of the northwest will
be full average, although in central
Missouri and southern Kansas it is
almost total failure. The great wheat
belt of the north, beginning with Wes-
tern New York and taking 10 the
northern half Of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
and southern Wisconsin aud Michigan,
is not touched with any disaster The
crop is splendid in quality, aud will
yield well in this section. The corn
crop of the northwest will be the largest
for many years, while rye, barley, aud
oats, particularly the latter, win be con.
siderably above the average. The south
has secured the largest wheat crop,
making allowances for heavy losses,
that she ever harvested, and now has 4
splendid growing corn crop, much o.
which is in the cotton growing Ststes
aud is al7eady matured. Altogether
the prospect is thet we shall have the
most bountifrl year since tbe war.

Another Reioinder.


The Sentinel devotes two columns
more to the Advocate 10 its last issue.
Fully one half Of its stock in trade is
derived from the Aolgoeafe which seems
to have become indispensable to it. We
need NOT, at this time, follow its vapid
ratiocinations further than a brief notice
Of the subjoined extract.
The Adcocaie repudiates the platform
or portion ofit--yets supports Mr.. Greeley,
who is in favor Of the civil rights bill,
mixed schools, negroes on the bench, on
juries, IN railroad cars, churches and thea
tres.
Yes, but ii does not support Mr..
Greeley because Of these things, but
because his candidacy offers the best
aud only chance now left Of breaking
up the Grant Administration. Gu this
abstract issue alone the AdUocote sup.
ports Mr.. Greeley. Danger to the Re-
public and common necessity to res
cue from the grasp of despOtisn what
is left to US Of liberty, have driven men
Of the most adverse political sentiments
to rush together for common safety il
common danger.
If the ADVOCATE supported not only
Mr.. Greeley, but the whole catalogu,
of measures enumerated in the forego
ing extract, it ought to be source 0
qualification to the Sentiael, which ia
vors aud supports them ALL Let i
not, therefore, make it cause of quar-
rel with us, because we desire th
election Of man who once favore'
these things. Not because he favore,
them, MS we have before stated bu
because be has been presented to us a
the most likely candidate to overthrow
the present corrupt Administration
which has come to be regarded as S
great curse to the country that an,
change would be for the better. Non
would likely be for the worse.

The National Debt Of England amounts
to S3,8S4, 305, 1886, the annual interest
on which, at 3 per cent, would be sll6,.
500, 100. The highest point this debt
has ever reached was at the conclusion
Of the wars growing out of the
French revolution and the fall Of
Napoleon. At that time it reached
$4,000, 100000. The creditors OF the
English government are for the most
part residents Of the country, and cou.
sequently the taxation required to pay
the interest on her debt goes back again
to her people without any exhaustion OF
national wealth.
