HE PHILADELPHIA T AhADE.--l ue hepuD-
lican t0rchlight procession in Philadelphia on
Thursday night was the most imposing de-
monstration Of the kind ever Witnessed in
that city. Although the procession marched
eight men abreast, it was over two hours pass
ing given point. The front Of this army Of
voters left the corner of South and Broad
streets IT 81 o'clock, and it was nearly eleven
whom the rear passed the reviewing stand at
the corner of Girard avenue and Broad street.
1t 10 estimated that there were over 30, 900
men in line. The column was reviewed by
Cows. Hayes and Hartranft. Most Of the
transparencies carried notices that were man.
ifestly echoes Of the Ohio campaign. "Hard
Money and Free Schools, " was the most fro
9nsnt device. The imposing character Of the
ization and populsr enthusiasm for the Re-
publican ticket will do. The signs all point
to the election Of Gov. Hartranft by very
large majority.
Dickens In his American Notes, " publish
ed thirty years ago, described . prisoner in
the Eastern Penitentiary at Philadelphia
whose solitary confinement tho great novelist
lamented. This person, Charles Landheimer,
still lives at the age Of rs. He has just been
sent back to his old quarters for the sixth
time, for the offence of stealing--a passion
which has kept him in Jail for more than half
| OF his life. M

Last Fall the Democrats shouldered the
Republican party with the dull times. Give
us the power and every man shall be kept
busy. They have been in power for nearly
year in New York and Pennsylvania. Times
are as bad as ever in both States. Democracy
has not kept its promise to the laboring man
1t could not restore prosperity, and IL knew it
could not, when it made the pledge. Dull
| times como from other causes than political
ones. Over-production over-trading spec
ulation are the fruitful causes. Both par
ties are equally powerless to prevent these. &
From this time out, few converts will be
made. Our reliance must be on full vote.
The most energetic measures should be adopt
ed to bring out the vote. Two votes lost in
each township of Ohio, would have defeated

Pennsylvania, remember this, and bring out
every vote. BY this sign we shall win.
1t is the single drop that overfiows the
bucket. So it is the single vote that wrests
victory out of defeat. Let each candidate
work as If he needed just one vote more to
elect him. Let each town organization labor
! for just one vote more, until the polls are
! closed, and glorious victory will crown our
| efforts. We have the votes to win all that
remains to be done, is to have them cast.
The Democratic party demands British
free-trade for the United States, and the out
spoken part of it is in favor OF currency inf1a-
ton and reputation. 1t is for the people to
decide whether they will elect such party to
control-and by controlling to ruin-tbeir
future prospects.
Germany, with population about equal to
that of the United States graduated about six
hundred and sixty physicians last year, while
our own glorious country turned some three
thousand new doctors loose in the same period
of time.
Crops are big, money is easier, Dr. Mary
Walker is sick, fall trade is good, Sergeant
Bates is in Canada, and why can't we all be
happy this winter?
Every citizen should vote. To fail in this
sacred duty is to put in peril wise laws and
good government. There is SO much ignor-
ance to contend against in this country that
neglect of the franchise, on the part of intelli-
gent citizens, becomes an objectionable sim
If every Republican will do his duty, the
Ohio victory will be duplicated in Pennsylva-
mia, and New Jersey. The duty is light
one. 1t consists in voting. If every Repub-
lican resolves to vote, the victory is assured.
The Democracy blames the Republican par
ty for the late panic and subsequent hard
times and attributes this disaster to a cont rae
ton of the currency and a high tariff; yet,
every intelligent man in the country H. ows
that there has been no contraction, and if it
had not been for that same tariff, the crisis
would have fallen upon us several years earlier,
and with tenfold greater severity.
