Campaign Notes.

The citizens of Centralia and vicinity,
Illinois. are circulating a petition TO Senator
Blaine to visit that section and make speech
during the campaign. The Chicago Inter-
Ocean publishes the petition in full.
Robert Toombs says "We will elect Han
cock, and the South will run the machine. ="
Nobody doubts but such would be the case.
The republicans have been relieved of their
"Old Man of the Sea'-Ben Butler. How
much would the New York Democrats give to
get rid of their Octopus Tilden?-N T.

Of colored people who can read and write ex-
ceeds the number OF white people who can do

South where more colored than white children
are attending school.
The Mobile Register, democratic. says
"Wade Hampton uttered nothing that should
alarm the most superscnsitve lovalst, when
he made the remarks attributed to him.
Daniel r. Ford, Esq. lifelong democrat
presided at Il large republican meeting in
North Berwick last week. Mr.. Ford on tax
ing the chair, said that on the 18th of Sep
tember he should for the first time in his life
vote the republican ticket. He had become
heartsick of the evasions. trickery, and false
pretenses of the democratic party. and es
pecially the attempt to steal the State gov

count of what it calls ian amusing affair"
at Abbeville Court House, that State, the

turned out to here what the RAIDS would saw.
Only two members of the convention were
white, TOlbert and Keller. When Tolbert
rose to address the meeting everywhere was
confusion. Our boys cried, Take him down!
Black him! Make him kiss Alb Titus i.
Amid the confusion and excitement Col.
Cothran appeared and attempted to persuade
the boys to retire, and allow them to go on
with the meeting. The boys did not go worth
cent. Col. Cothran was enthusiastically
called for the whites. He mounted the ros-
trum and delivered short and meaning
speech. He told the RAIDS this is our country,
and it shsN remain ours

Reasons Why.

"Why should I vote the republican tick
ct ?" asks the young man who has just
reached his majority, and is desirous Of
making conscientious choice between the
two parties which solicit his ballot Here
are a few reasons why:
Because the republican party is the only
party which has no cause to be ashamed
OF its past record.
Because it began its existence by resist
ing the extension of the curse of human
slavery to the free Territories of the
West.
Because it fought four years war to
save the Union from being broken into
fragments, and conquered the most formid
able rebellion known to history.
Because 1t emancipated four millions OF
slaves, and gave them the right to life
liberty and the pursuit Of happiness
which the Declaration # independence.

all mankind.

Because it has always honored labor

ing few speeches up in Vermont Ihe
democratic leaders there soon shut MS mouth
The following extract from cne of his speeches
NAV explain the reason Why
we are charged with stealing the negro
vote. Well, are we to blame for it! Those
who gave the negro 4 vote forgot the Lord
prayer, if they ever knew it, especially the
clause which says lead US not into temp,a-
tion." They gave the right to vote to the
negro. BY so doing, they gave to the south
forty-six additional electoral votes and forty
six additional members of Congress. Now
we determined to get those electoral vo'es
and members of Congress, and we got them.
Are we to blame for it? The republicans
tempted us and we fell. Now that we have
them. we propose to keep them.
