PREACHING AND PRACTICE.

While the organ of the Cecil Democracy
is preaching crusade against the colored
men, breathing out threatenings and de-
nunciations and invoking every "Caucas-
sian" by the color of his skin to band
against the "brutally ignorant negroes, the
candidates of the aforesaid organ, are all
smiles and Establishments toward the color
ed voters. A depot has been established
on Back street, where all who will partake,
are piled with whisky and segars. Some
times the preaching and practice run
counter to each other. A short time since
candidate was treating his political
friends both white and black, at one of the
corner groceries," in the First or Second
District, when one of the downright
Democrats, who firmly believed In living
up to the preaching, was present, and be-
came SO disguised with the aren't hypoc-
risy practiced by the politicians of his
party, that he went home and avowed his
determination to vote the Republican ticket
i'll future.

DRAWING THE FIRE OF THE PARKER
GUN.-The Doctor boasts that he has
drawn the fire of the Parker Gun and
scattered onr figures, but the Doctor has
happy faculty of getting the cart before
the horse. We scattered the figures among
the people, and the Doctor has been plying
his surgical skill in trying to pick the shot
out of the carcass ofthe "ring," which the
gun planted there; but the "critter" has
grown SO fat, living on the rich Stops of
the county and guzzling lager; and the
Parker Gun being hard shooter, putting
the shot so deep into the soft carcass, that
the surgeon with all his probes and skill,
finds it impossible to extract them. There
is only one remedy, Doctor; the animal
must be turned out to grass, and get some
Of the surplus fat off it. 1t has been STALL
fed SO long that it moves about with great
difficulty. The Parker Gun has fired
few more shots into it this week to keep
the wounds open. The people say they
are very fond of having these figures scat
tered among them. They seem to help
their blind eyes. By the way, Doctor,
how is your blind asylum prospecting?

Difference in favor of the Democracy,
taking six years of each party and leaving
out the mixed year of 1861 of $243, 994.
Which is to say, the present party in power
spent in running the county government
six years, when prices were comparatively
low, $243, more than the Republicans
did in the same length of time under war
prices.
While on this subject, it may be well to
revert to prices of almost everything during
the years 1S634-5, when the farmer sold
his wheat for $3.50 to $500 and upwards
per bushel, and hay, oats, corn and stock
at corresponding rates. Gold reached as
high as 10 during these years of war
prices. Now, and since the Democrats
have been in power, the farmer does not
realize half these prices for his produce,
and gold is but 10a12 cent premium. But
the taxes laid upon the impoverished and
overburdened people, behold them rising
in one of those years in round numbers to
SOS, 600, and in the last two years to
nearly $1O4, 900 each.
1t will be remembered that this same
Democratic party, or rather the office
holding "Ring" of that party, which has
lorded it over the county for the last six or
seven years, charged the Union party with
corruption and reckless extravaganza,
when they were seeking to displace that
party, and appealing to the people to rein
state the Democratic party in the county
as a matter of economy. But what do the
figures reveal to betrayed and outraged
people? Behold the taxes now almost
double, while every article you buy or sell
is about half the price it was when an eco
nomical Union Republican party levied the
taxes and managed with frugal hands the
finances of the county and State.
We have shown by faithful transcripts
from the county records, the sums levied
and collected. When the farmers pro-
duce was high, light taxes were required
of him to conduct the county government
by Republican officers; but when every
thing he has to sell is down to figures that
require him to practice the most rigid econ
omy to make his receipts meet his neces-
sary expenses, we find his taxes doubled by
Democratic tax gatherers, and in the
depths of his despair, he asks, aehy it is'
By further transfers of figures from the
the same faithful county records we will
endeavor to show why this state of affairs
exists, and where those vast sums of money
have gone to. From a multitude of minor
items of expense, which an examination of
the levy lists reveals, we select few more

OCTOBER ELECTIONS IN FIVE STATES.

The October elections are over Though
the contest in none of the States has been
very fierce, nor particularly important, it
has been watched with interest by large
numbers of people. The result is what
had been generally expected. In all direc-
tions the Republican party has at least
held it's own, an evidence that the party
principal TO the barter aid sale at Balti-
more last year has not yet recovered an
iota from its crushing defeat in the race
for the Presidency. The rout Of the De-
mocracy may be said to be even more COM
plete than ever Here in Pennsylvania
they have lost almost everything. Their
candidates for State Treasurer and Su-
preme Judge have been badly beaten, and
they have one Senator less from this city
in the next Legislature. In the contest for
gain nothing, while their entire city ticket
is defeated. In fact, decentralization at
tends them everywhere. In Ohio, where
they attempted to revive old issues through
the platform adopted at Columbus, they
have helped the Republicans to more votes.
In Iowa, where they made a bid for the
farmers vote by adopting the name of
Anti Monopolists, they have signally failed
to achieve the object aimed at. Oregon is
the only State where they can find parti-
Gle Of comfort, having elected their candi-
date to Congress to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of the Republican member.
In this one instance alone have they been
successful, everything else going against
them Wednesdays Philadelphia Press.
The above result is truly disheartening
to our Democracy, who feel this is but
forerunner of their fate on the fourth of
November.

GONE TO THE JINGLE.

THE Democrat has become disguised
with civilization, and the deploEable spirit
of the age, and announced last week its
departure for Africa, in search of Living
stone, perhaps. We hope it will be as
successful as Stanley, and return with as
long yarn. The trip the doctor proposes
taking will insure his absence till after the
election, and the news telegraphed from
five States on Wednesday morning last,
has not tendency to hasten his return.
The principal reason assigned for this trip
to the jungle on the eve of on important
election is, if the Radicals are successful,
the colored race will overslaugh the whites
and take possession of Maryland. 1t ap-
pears to US that The Democrats fears are
altogether groundless. By a look into the
census tables of 1870, we find that there
are about five whites to one colered COM
posing the population of Maryland and in
Cecil the same proportion.
The white population of Maryland in
1870, was Cos. 497; colored do. It's, $780,
White population of Cecil county 21,s6O;
colored do. 4,014.
The proportion of voters to the whole
population is not more than one in five.
In view of these figures and facts we can't
see any cause for Tile Democrats fearful
apprehension, expressed in the following
quotation from last weeks issue of that
paper. Tile Democrat says:
3" Lastly in this connection we would ask
the people of Cecil and Maryland, if they
are prepared to suffer the non-tax paying
colored people to decide the amount Of
taxes to be levied upon property"
But it is absurd to treat such reasoning
as The Democrat uses, seriously at this day.
The Doctors stand point is far behind the
times. The article is satanic in spirit, but
withal ludicrous from the earnest anxiety
manifested in every paragraph. Our cor
respondents have pitched into it seriously,
but we can scarce assume the gravity to
be serious, while discussing such antedlu-
Wan theories. The inconsistency and alb
surdity of such reasoning will more fully
appear in reading the following paragraph.
"The gift of suffrage to the negro was
no kindness to his race, nor was it intended
as SUCH"
Mr. Greeley was one of the most distin-
guished apostles of this policy, and only
last fall he was the chosen candidate for
President of the United States, of this
Democrat, Doctor and all What can SEN
sble people think of such action in connec-
ton or conjunction with such preachinge
The Democrat is evidently frightened
but be of good cheer, the beating up of the
quarters of the "Elkton ring worms"
will not endanger the Republic by bring
ing it under "negro, rule" those satanic
articles to the contrary notwithstan ling.

The Democracy or present party in pow
er got possession of the State and county
in 1867, having proselyted one of our COM
missioners and the faint began to show in
the perceptible rise that took place. From
the levy of 1864 we have deducted bounty
tax of SEQ, and from that of 1865 a
bounty tax of So, 800 paid to volunteers,
and in no way can these sums be consid
cred as money levied for ordinary county
purposes. 1867, no tax levied this year
for schools, ST., 355.10. In lieu of school
tax however, there was levied for subscrip-
ton to Bohemia Bridge $4,000, which if
deducted from the levy for ordinary county
purposes, reduce the figures to SGS.355,
which The Democrat has asserted in fit of
desperation was the higest levy ever made,
by $23, 77S56. Let the taxpayers exam
inc the figures that follow.

DEMOCRATIC FIGURES.
Total expense roads & bridges.

And we never had worse roads than we
have now, with the outlay reaching, in one
year, upwards of .forty-secen thousand!
squandered on roads and bridges, in great
part; the taxpayers have been bled at
every pore to furnish means to be wasted
by a set of favorites, who hire boys and
idlers, in large proportion, to put in time
on the roads, and help squander the county
money.
We might continue the contrast at great
length, but the above array seem sufficient
to make tax payers sick.
