A. VOTE for the Demoer&tic ticket is vote to take the burden of taxation from the rich man's piano and put it on tb poor woman's wash tub.

THE Territory of New Mexico last Monday held an election for members ot the Legislature. The Republicans carried about two-thirds of the districts.

THE ex-rebeli of West Virginia are rampant. They threaten to secure regis tration this time by force. They will get whipped at that game as they did at the one of secession.

FARMERS of Vigo County, a vote the Democratic ticket is a vote to your own farms. Kead the fourth reso lution of the national platform adopted at New Yovk.

TOTE

for the Democratic ticket

a vote to take the burden of taxation from the rich man's pleasure carriage and put it on the poor man's dray or wheel-bar-row.

HOKATIO SEYMOUR'S "friends" in 1863 burned the colored orphan asylums of New York. In 1868 they are shooting down the Union men of the South, white and black.

MECHANICS, a vote for the Democrat' ic ticket, is ft vote to put the tax on the implements and products of your business that is now borne by the ricb men of the community. Head the fourth Tam many resolution.

FARMERS,

a vote for the Democratic

ticket is a vote to lessen the tax on the rich man's wines, silks, broadcloths and gold watches, and to make up the deficit by taxing your horses, your cows your pigs, poultry, hoes shovels, axes and all the indespensible implements of your business. See fourth resolution of Tam many platform.

AN election falls due in Nebraska on the 6th of October. Somo of tha Democratic papers have inserted the name of that young State along with that of Ken tucky, as having already declared for their side. The local elections in Nebras ka last year, the latest held, resulted in large Eepublican gains in nearly every county. The vote had previously been close.

WE do not wish to bo over-confident nor to "count chickens before they are hatched," but we think it is safe to look out for Republican thunder in the East next Monday.

It Maine repeats her Republican majority of last year, it is all over with SsrMOBR and BLAIR. An actual gain of 10,000 is predicted by Senator FESSENDEN whose candor and ronservatism are recog. nized by Democrats as well as Kepublicans. Such a gain will produce a Bull Run panic in the Democratic ranks. It will be fatal to their hopes, wo repeat after their unprecedented exertions in that State—if she barely holds her own.

THE bondholders' demonstration tomorrow night is to be gotten up regardless of expanse. A few thousand dollars is nothing to men who pay no taxes and who live ft" the labor of others.—Journal.

The above is a sample of tho idiotic flings which daily illuminate the columns of the Journal. That paper would make it appear that the Republicans "pay no taxes Now we assert that three*fourths of the amount of National, '3tate and county taxes collected in this city are paid by Republicans. We challenge the Jcntrxal to disprove this assertion. If it is willing to go into an examination of official documents to ascertain the amount of taxes paid by each party, we will submit the question to a committee fairly chosen and will pay our proportion of the expense incurred in such an investigation. Will vou do it

THE St. Louis Democrat positively asserts that Kentucky is shipping arms into Missouri and voters into Indiana.

The immense secret organization of which we have been told, is strong in Kentucky, And Governor BBAMLETTE is— not at the tail—of it. Through that organization this shipment of guns and voters is being vigorously pushed. Wo warn our friends to look out for these eeoundrels. It is no idle caution. Kentucky has aplenty of Ku-Klux voters to •pare. Indiana has many localities where Republicans are not as strong as they should be and perhaps mt as vigilant. At any rate, vro believe the a??ertion of the Democrat that tho attempt is being made to invade this State with Kentucky ballots instead of Kentucky bulled, and. if the raid is not promptly met, it will do more harm than ever JOHN MORGAN did north of the Ohio.

-IPfiPiiglPSSi

A VOTE for the Democratic ticket is a vote to take more than $12,000,000, of annual taxes from tbe shoulders of the rich manufacturar's of Massachusetts and put the burden on the backs of the people of Indiana.

A Democratic Muddle.

A letter from HORATIO SEYMOUR to C. *W. iNGERhoLL, of New Haven, Conn., has found its way into print, in which the writer saye: "I see the Republicans are trying to dodge the financial issues, and to sink the election into a mere personal contest— Our papers must not allow this. They must push the debt and taxation upon public attention.'

Whatever the Republicans may be doing, the Democrats can hardly afford to make their financial policy very prominent, at least until they can reduce it to some degree of consistency.

FRANK

BLAIR, SEYMOUR'S associate on

tbe ticket, says: "It is idle to talk of bonds, greenbacks, gold, the public faith and the public credit. We must restore the Constitution before we can restore the finances."

The Massachusetts Democrats have just declared themselves as follows: "Resolved, That gold and silver is the only constitutional legal tender, and while we would have but ore currency for all, the Democracy of Massachusetts, now as in tbe past, are true to their old faith in hard money, and demand that it be restored to tbe people at the earliest moment consistent with the interests ol tbe business and labor of the country.

On the other hand, the New York State Democratic Convention resolved: "That the payment of the public obligations in strict accordance with their terms—in gold only, when gold is nominated in tbe bonds, and in the lawful currency of the country when coin is not specified.''

Strange to say, the candidate whom the*e greenback New Yorkers have nominated for Governor said in a speech in January last:

We do not propose—I do not, at least —to discuss the question of the National debt. I simply say this to place myself right upon the record. I declare the honor, the good faith, of the country is pledged, every dollar of property is pledged, every right arm of labor in the coufitry is pledged, to the payment of every dollar of the National debt, honestly and fully, not only according to the letter, but according to tbe spirit of the bond."

In view of these facts, the New York World does not agree with Mr. SEYMOUR on the pre-eminence of financial questions. It says: "The great dividing line between the two political parties is the reconstruction question. No citizen who detests the radical policy of reconstruction will be deterred from voting lor the Democratic candidates by his dislike of greenbacks nor, on the other hand, will any citizen who accepts the radical policy be enticed into the Democratic party by his belief that the five-twenty bonds are payable in lawful money."

The question still remaini, have the Democrats a financial policy, and if so, what is it?

Another Radical Outrage. During the speaking at the 2d Ward pole raising Wednesday night some cowardly miscreants of the radical moral party took advantage of the surrounding darknefls to throw a number of stones and brick-bats into the crowd. Two ladies were struck and severely hurt by the fly ing missiles, and other parties barely escaped injury.

The Radicals think this sort of work is a bully thing, and smirk around over the transaction as though they had gained "another important victory."

Let it be remembered that all outrages of this kind in the present campaign have been perpetrated by the Radicals.—Jour nal.

The above is one of a numerous array of articles in the Journal of yesterday which appear to have been written with the deliberate purpose of inciting tbe friends and partisans of that sheet riotous acts. It is a tissue of unmitigated falsehoods from beginning to end, with the exception of the statement that two ladies were hurt. The stones and brick bats thrown at the crowd were thrown by boys. A prominent Democrat saw the young scoundrels engaged in the business.

The assertion that "the Radicals think this sort of work is a bully thing, and smirk around over the transaction as though they had gained 'another import ant victory,' is as mean and contempt! ble a lie as was ever conceived in tbe heart of the most abandoned slanderer on earth. The Republicans of this city have severely deprecated every indication of lawlessness in any and every quarter, and are earnestly desirous to preserve the peace and quiet of the city, Rnd to main tain the good name of tha party as well individual self-respect. To this end they have quietly borne repeated insults of the most outrageous character.

In asserting that "all outrage! of this kind in tho present campaign have been perpetrated by the radicals," the Journal perpetrates what every man in the City and County knows to be an audacious lie. There has hardly been a Republican meeting or demonstration of any kind in the city or vicinity during the campaign that has not been treated with insults. Stones have been thrown into processions and hurled into crowds, while verbal abuse has been unlimited. We havo heretofore preferred to suppose all this came from vicious boys, but the course of the Journal indicates otherwise

We havo to say, in conclusion, that the Republican party here, as elsewhere, desire peaco aud good order, and will give no occasion for any insult or outrage. But if the Journal or its friends see fit to stir up the inob spirit, the parties pursueing such a course must be responsible far the consequences. 5

MR. COMMISSIONER WELLS, recently, at the request of Hon. W. B. Allison, made a statement of the national expendilures during the past fiscal year, which the Democracy unite in condemning as essentially false. It is charged that his figures fall tar short of the actual cost of running the Government. Now that Secretary of the Treasury McCulloch has come out so unequivocally for Seymour and Blair, why is he not called upon for a statement to offset that made by Wells? The Treasury Department certainly has access to all the accounts, and if an error has been made,can authoritatively contradict it. The otfly inference is that either Mr .Wells was right, or, if mistaken, the unaccounted for expenditures are justly chargeable to the Executive, and not to the Legislative branch of the Government hence tbe ominous silence of McCulloch and his subordinates. Whichever horn of the dilemma be taken, the less said about the matter the better for the copperheads.—Chicago Jc-arnaZ,

sylvftoia will give GRANT ia heavier 11§jority than was ever before Cast for a President, and that SEYMOUR will not get a single Northern State if the tide keeps on rising. He believes the Tote of Vermont will be the key-note of the final result.

THE Daily

Pantagraph, of Blooming-

ton. Ills., reaches us in a greatly improved form, and under new business and editorial management. It has been purchased by a company, at tbe head of which are Hon. JESSE W. FELL and Dr. E. R. ROE, two of the most earnest and public-spirited Republicans in that county. It is issued as amorning paper, gives the latest telegraph news, and has every appearance of success, all of which we are glad to note, and trust it may long continue its present career of usefulness and prosperity.

SENATOR HEHDSRSON spoke' on Monday at Macon, Missouri. The St. Louis Republican says his speech was a violent assault upon tbe St. Louis Democrat and upon those Radicals who denounced his course. The latter paper says if Mr. HENDERSON fancies that the people of Missouri are going to leave the Presidency, the election of Congressmen, the choice of Governor and State officers, and devote their attention to a consideration of the personal record of JOHN B. HENDER SON, be is considerably mistaken*

Decrease of the Public Debt. The Journal is very happy in its great success as a figurist. It is working away at the public debt with the utmost zeab and has already found what it calls an "increase of twelve' millions during the month of August." In point of fact the debt has been reduced nearly ten*millions since the first of June, as the following figures prove: Ou the first of June, 1808, funded and unfunded debt' amounted to $2,643,753,566 Deduct Pacific Railroad bonds, then outstanding, which are not charge on the Treasury 25,902,000

Actual debt June 1. ,.$2,6I7861,566 On the first of September tbe total debt was 82,043,256,286 Deduct Pacific Railroad bonds then outstanding 35,314,000

Actual debt September 1., ,.$8, G07,942,286

$9,909,281 133,507,680 107,641,971

Showing a reduction of the actual d=bt of. On the first of June there was cash in the Treasury amounting to On the first of j&pletBber there was.

Showing as expenditure in excess of receipts, during three months, ot $25,865,709

Out of this sum, and whatever may have been it& 6drrent receipts, the government has puid $7,000,000 for Alaska, together with the semi-annual interest on $1,000,000,000 of six per cent bonds, that is $30,000,000, and also the current expenses of the government for three months, and has reduced the debt as is shown above nearly $10,000,000. It has thus paid $47,000,000, besides its current expenses. What its current receipts and expenses have been in that time is not shown, and any preteHted exhibit of the financial condition of the government which excludes them from the reckoning must necessarily be incomplete and untrustworthy. One thing is certain the debt represented by bonds, notes and certificates is nearly ten millions less than it was on the first of June, instead of having increased thirty five or forty millions du ring the last three months as the Journal and other Democratic organs assert.

LETTER FROM OWEN COUNT!

Correspondence Dally Express.]

Ert'

SPENCER, IND., Sept. 9, 1868.

Owen county, notwithstanding the usua' Democratic majority, looks fair to record her name this fall amongst tbe counties redeemed from rebel rule and stand out amongst the galaxy of loyal counties of Old Hoosierdom. The Union men are alive here and determined to win. The soldiers are organizing all over the county and say to such men as Daniel of the Wabash that they falsify when they claim the true soldier for tbe democratic ticket

In this place they have a mounted company which, when parading, makes splendid appearance with their "red caps and, under the eommand of Capt. Smith Johnson, march to the time of loyalty and peace with victory as their watch word. At Gosport, at Quincy, at Santa Fe. at Vandalia, at Freedom and other places in the county, these old veterans of the Democratic rebellion are again mar shalled, not to-battle with arms, but to win the victory with tbe freeman weapon—the "white ballot These com panies are dally increasing their numbers and making converts amongst their friends. Our soldiers will vote against this Democracy as they fought against it, but this is not all in Owen. Tbe friends of the soldier, who stood by ns during the war, who cared for the widows and or pbans of obr noble heroes, who looked after our interests at home, who guarded as it were, our very firesides against Dan Yoorhees and his Knights, are working in concert with, our boys and effecting much Our people here ate enthusiastic in the cause while the Democracy are virulent impudent and insulting from their leaders down, .¥"«» quarrelling among themselves, as shown by their acts at the barbecue of Judge Eckles above Quincy, the other day, this is heavy on tbe old Judge. While here short time previous to tbe barbecue he invited certain men here to come up and join them in au old fashioned Democratic barbecue that they would witness the true feelings of Democracy. And sure enough, those who went witnessed it in all its force of whisky and warlike spirit. Yonr readers are aware of the actions at this Democratic barbecue. Democrats themselves say that there were twentytwo fights, forty-four wounded and one killed. Oh, Democracy, if yoo would receive missionaries, what a work there would be for religious societies. Our people here are a vake, and this Fall you may hearken for a shout of victory from Owen..

This is Common Fleas Court week, and goodly number of the legal fraternity are present, among whom is Major Harry Woodsmall, of Gosport, our earnest and energetic Chairman of the Congressional Central Committee. Harry is a worker, aad not only pushes forward bis work as Chairman, bat lends his indomitable en-, ergy to the home work. Capt. Beam, tbe Chairman of our County Central Com-

CarxM Daily Express. I ,WASHINGTON, D. Sep WORK FOE CONGRESS.

The feeling continues to increase that Congress will be compelled to reassemble on the 21st instant. The condition of affairs in most of the Southern States seems to render the reassembling a matter of necessity. The Vermont election has shown the drift of affairs in the Northern States. Grant is sure to carryall with the exceptiottof two henee, no damage tothe Republican cause by the withdrawal of speakers need be feared. It it the Union people

South—whitc^and

who

demand and need Congressional aid. In Mississippi, even the Federal officers are openly opposed in Arkansas, the anthorities are at the mercy ofa Ku-Klux mob, as they are in Eastern Tennessee and several other States. The organization and arming of a loyal militia in the reconstructed States is a matter of positive necessity but this cannot be accom plished unless Congress supplies the requisite arms. More stringent laws, also, are required to suppress turbulence in the three unreconstructed States, or the responsibility will fall upon Congress The authorities here are fully advised of the fiendish purposes of the Ku-Klux leaders, all of whom are ex-rebels, and whose operations, if not nipped in__the bud, may start another civil war' ...»t .. -.'Jo-!.

THE REBEL SPIRIT

In this city is more rampant than at any time since 1861. In the Departmets the rebel sympathizing clerks who kept their peace during the war by concealing their principles, aire now outspoken in their hostility to the Government, and Republican clerks are daily threatened by them with dismissal. I know an instance ol a copperhead from Kentucky who his been in the Department only three months being promoted over Republican clerks of more capacity, longer. experience, and against whom no complaint has ever been made. In the places of public resort no Republican can openly defend his principles without danger of being assaulted by some Ku-Klux ruffSan. The poor colored man suffers equally with the whites. Only last night a quiet, inoffensive colored man, while on his way to his regular., business, was assaulted by five white ruffians without any provocation whatever. They cut his throat with a knife and left him to bleed to death. Thus early does the animus of the rebel Democracy manifest itself. Fortunate for the Union people it is so for every outrage increases Grants major, ity. Vermont has given the key-note of the campaign—in every State an increased Republican vote.

THE NEWS FROM OHIO

Is cheering. It has been thoroughly can vassed by the Republicans, and is sure for Grant and Colfax by a large majority. So writes a prominent member of the State Committee in a letter just received here also that most, if not all, of the members of congress from that State who have been renominated tor the next Congress, will also be re-elected. We are all glad in Washington to hear such encouraging reports, as some of these Ohio men can not yet be dispensed with. Their capaci ty and experience are too valuable to the Republican party. Gen. Schenck, of the third Congressional district of that State, could not certainly be spared frrm the chairmanship of the Committee of Ways and Means at this crisis in our couutry history, and Judge Lawrence of the fourth district, one of the soundest and most enlightened representatives of the liberal ideas and movements of the age, is also needed here for at least two years more to strengthen the Inoming admin istration.

A MAN OF THE PEOPLE.

There is not an intelligent copperhead

in Washington who really believes that Seymour and I^lair will be elected Those who oppose the Republican candi dates the most violently in public do not hesitate to admit, in private conversation that our ticket, all things considered, is the strongest that has been put before the people since the formation of the govern ment, and that there is scarcely a proba bility of its being defeated. And so it is a strong ticket. Grant is a man who wears well." He has been gaicing ground steadily in tbe estimation of his fellow citizens from the day ho started from Galena with his "carpet bag," to go to work in the office of Governor Dick Yates, in Springfield, Illinois. Grant has more friends and admirers now, and among the best classes of people—that is, thinking people—than he had on the day he was nominated, and by election day he will have thousands more.-:

The

fact is that Grant is not merely a great general—he is a great man. And the American people are getting prouder and prouder of him. They are also beginning to love the man. He is emphatically an American—one of the people simple in his babiU, and plain in bis dress. No French airB about him. No style no fuss no feathers: no superfluity of words. An earnest and comprehensive thinker, a keen observer, and, whenever it is necessary, a rapid actor. Talking is not his forte. He is a worker. He wants to do things, not talk abOut them. The little he does say or write on important subjects, however, is always to the point, and has given more satisfaction to the loyal people of this country, and to the friends of human progress the world over, than all that Seymour could say or write till doomsday. People have confidence in Grant, who always means what he says while even Seymour's friends bave none in him: That tells tbe whole story. Grant is also, respected abroad. Some of those fellows on the other side of the water have, also a wholesome fear for the Western man of few words and big deeds. Call me no prophet if England does not settle those Alabama claims promptly after Grant's inauguration. israeli would hesitate to dilly-dally With.a man who is quite likely to issue a State paper of three linet, announcing his intention of "moving upon" Canada "immediately."
