Hi 11 C'umback. [Yesterday’s St.it- sen tine I.] This notorious demagogue and pot-house-partisian (politician in any proper sense he is not) made a speech last night at the Republican headquarters in the First Ward. We neither know nor care what lie said in his speech: indeed, it matters very little what Will Cumback says privately or publicly, but. since Will Cumback is an office-holder and a sanctified member of the God and morality party, it may be interesting for the people to know «that he has so far advanced in the work of saving his bread and butter, regardless of his ! soul, that he has become a first-class slanderer. That Will Cumback is ambitious of securing notoriety in his new role there can be no doubt, when it is known that he charged Andrew Johnson on the street yesterday with being a party to the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, and that he knew all about the awful crime. It would be difficult to fitly characterize such an infamous charge, or properly denounce the pusillanimus slanderer who would make it. Andrew Johnson pass- ; ed through the furnace of partisian ! persecution, heated seven times hotter than usual, but from amidst the fierce fires of partisian malignity he came forth without the smell of fire upon his garments, and after filling the measure of his days, with credit to himself and j his country, died in peace and was buried, surrounded by those who were familiar with his eventful life. And now after years of rest in the grave. Will Cumback. with the instinct of a hyena and the propensities of a hound, digs up the bones of the grand old chieftain to defile them. It is Will Cumback s way of showing his right to hold office under a Presidential fraud, and it may I be well to remark, as empahsizing his! character, that this is the same Will Cumback whom Governor Baker characterized as "indecent and corrupt.' Hot TJie Same Party. [From the New York Truth, Independent, Aug, 23, 1880.] Let not the American people be deceived. It is not the Repuplican party that Abraham Lincoln represented that appeals to them in the person of James A. Garfield. The true representative of Lincoln’s ideas, his confident in the conduct of the war. and his heir in all that is patriotic and representative in our national institutions, is Winfield Scott Hancock, the nominee of the peoples party for the presidency. Haith moves mountains; but it takes a couple of express wagons to move a fashionable woman s baggage.—Baltimore Every Saturday.

NIBLICK, CRAWFORD & SONS J Having tried the credit system long enough to test its impracticability, have concluded to take a new tack, and, instead of having to put their goods at a price high enough to make up for bad debts, they are now determined to give their patrons the benefit of the MONEY SAVED BY THE “READY PAY SYSTEM," in the reduced prices they are thus enabled to afford their customers. In this way they can “LIVE A-TSED LET LIVE!” It is true, Justices and Constables may object, as it interferes with a business which to them, has proven quite a lucrative one. But under the new order ot things, our friends will find goods at the store in the Adams County Bank Block so much lower than formerly, that they "VVill Toe: Astonis- ned2 • at. the change which ready pay has wrought.
