IHe asserted that ninety-nine out of every oné hundred- northern Democrats were rebel%ympathizers; that they had formed an alliance with southern Democrats, and that in the event of Tilden’s' election there was great danger that the Government would be turned over into the hands of these southern rebels, and pictured in gory colors the devastat‘i‘ng results that would surely follow a democratic victory this fall. On the other hand, the General had the hrazen effrontery to asser_t:phat there was no corruption in the present administration of governmental affairs and that there was no necessity whatever for a change. - Now, while we;do not believe there is a Republican in this community silly enough to endorse such vinta'm(')us‘ twaddle, or mean enough to charge 99 per cent. of his democratic neighbors with -treason, we beg leave to submit'the following extract from a speech delivered by Governor Hubbard, of Texas, as a more rational and correct exposition of the real, honest, heart-felt sentiments which per--vade the heart of every true southern patriot who yearns for better government. Read this, and confrast it with the blood-thirsty utterances of these “bloody shirt” demagogues: = Sirs, you have been told that we are demons of hate, and gloat in the tho't of war and blood. Men of New England—men of the great North! will you believe me when for the two millions of people whom I represent,-aud the whole South as we11,.1 denounce the utterances as an inhuman slander and a damnable and unpardonable falsehood against & brave, and, God knbws, a long-suffering people. Want war! Want bloodshed! Sirs, we are poor—broken . in fortune and sick at heart. Had you stood, as I ‘have stood, by the ruiried hearthstones, by the wrecks of forfunes, which are scattered all along the shore; had you seen, as 1 have seen, the wolf howling at the door of many a onee happy home-—widow -hood and orphanage starving and weeping over never returning sires and sons, who fell with your honored dead at Gettysburg and Manassas; could you hear as I have heard, the throbbing of the great Southern heart —throbbing for peace and yearning for the old and faithful love between the States; could you have seen and felt and heard all théase things, my countrymen, you would, black and white, Republican or Démocrat, take me by the hand-and swedr ‘that the arm thus uplifted against us, ‘and the tongue which utters the great libel in our name should wither at the socket and become palsied forever at the root! I repeat again, let our “spears be turned into pruning hooks and- our swords into plowshares,” to remain everlasting memorials of returning peace and good will to the American people. - :

Why Hon. John R. Buchtel will Vote for Tiiden. Hon. John R.-Buchtel, (whois.arelative of the Buchtels living in this vicinity, and well- known to many of Tor BANNER readers), the founder of Buchtel College, at Akron, Ohio, and one of the proprietors of the Buckeye Works at that place, has espoused the cause of Tilden, Hendricks and Reform. Recently at a public meeting ‘Mr. Buchtel was called out and responded in substance as follows, according to the report of the ZT'imes : . . “I will tell you how I became converted, and why I shall vote for Tilden. I hold the republican party responsible for its every act: You all know how it purposes to resume specie payments. Mr. Tilden propeses to, ‘resume by public economies. The 520 bonds were payable in currency, in the same money that the soldiers received. Does anybody know of the soldiers being paid in gold? - No, but a republican - Congress made these. bonds payable in gold. In 1873 the Republicans demonetized silver. When an effort was made to repeal the law who opposed it?- Yol see the price of silver.. 'Congress should-have taken our finances into consideration in a business way. Have they tried to pay” the debt? - Have they not rather cut off -the only way of paying it? Those bondholders are sharp, and they saw what was in their interest. They are monopolists and swindlers. When they saw that' silver was becoming cheap they cut it off. For that act of a republican Congresk we have had to pay premium on gold for three years, and then when the matter is brought up they refer it. A resolution which was tabled at Medina, shows you what such action means. It issimply dodging the whole question. Now, have we :not a right to vote against such men? If one of you men who works: in the Buckeye were tosteal five cents your head would come off. If a man -whom you sent to Congress steals-your money to give to'the bondholder, have you not a right to eall him to an account? The interests on our national debt is $100,000,000 a year, and silver at twenty per cent.discount. ' That act cost the tax-payers $20,000,000 per year, and now we are told it has been postponed for two years. ' I am going to vote for Tilden and reform. Republicans tellme that they want to reform the party from within itself.— "Bhey have sucked the public teat so long that they are like'a young possvglﬁa',ybu can’t pull themr off. If they had managed our business well we would not have stagnation and closed manufactories all over the land. We must have a change, and we can’t change for the worse. ' Let us all vote for Tilden and reform.” ! E —~~«—--—-~.;0~'-—j-:- i > :

~ OUR NEW YORK LETTER. . Ny YORK, Sept. 80, 1870. A little over one week ago the corl.re’spondents"of the New York news_papers discovered that the republican managers at Philadelphia were concocting a plan of fraud by which they hoped to carry Ohio and Indiana. Don Cameron was at the bottom of: it, ~and his henchmen Mackey and Mann “were to manipulate the ballots. ' The “plan was the same that has been tried - so successfully in Pennsylvania ever ‘since the elder Cameron came in power. As firsy exposed, the plan was simply to drop the republican tickets into the boxes, and when the count discovered more votes than the tally book allowed,to suggest the withdrawal of an equal number of both. This is but one branch -of the Pennsylva“nia system, and it, was at first thought that it would be sufficient, but later refurns D'l_"edik:t so heavy a democratic victory #hat the whole plan is (o be l resorted to. : 0

The rest of the plan, to be carried out successfully, must be done.by experienced hands; by people who have ‘been - instructed by men who are ‘adepts at the -business. ¢ Presto, change,” is the method. - Now, you see it, and now, you don’t,” is the sole es% sence of the design upon the people’s suffrage. In counting the tickets, the _person who is to handle them is train‘ed by experienced card manipulators to transfer a ballot from one hand to ‘ the other without being detected. In }‘thié way he can transfer whole pock_etsful of republican tickets to the table, and carry off alike number of; democratic ones without being seen. This is called: “ringing in” and “ring: ing out,” and if the honest voters are not careful they will be “rung out” of their citizenship, and the men whom ‘they voted against will be “rung into” office. Careful watching and a firm determination to punish any fraud that is found out; will defeat’ Cameron’s plans. The only danger lies in_ the chance that these exposures may | be looked upon as an “Eastern scare.” | That there is genuine cause for alarm is demonstrated by the departure of some three hundred disreputable char- ‘ acters from this city under th;.e leader- ‘ ship of The. Allen, a noted ballot-box stuffer.and gambler, who has always. been in the employ of therepublican ‘ party in this city. The elections .in Ohio and Indiana are of the u'mios_t]‘ importance to the Republicans; if they do not.cafry both of them Hayes ‘ may as well “step down‘and out.” Re- 1 alizing this fact, they are putting forth 1 i strenuous efforts, neglecting nothing, fair or foul. The Louisville C'du'rier—‘ ! Journal, which came to -this city recently, contained accounts of the col~onization of negroes from that city and other parts of the State, and also detailed the cases of several Germans who had been approa¢hed by Radicals and promised both money and office if ! they would transfer their allegiance. These facts are. not simply stated by unofficious persons, but are substantidted by affidavits. 'The Republicans have been forced to resort to this wholesale and alinost outspoken fraud, not only by the reports that reach them through democratic sources, but by the testimony of their’ own leaders. First it was Kilpatrick’s letter; then Schurz burst forth with a warning ‘from Ohio, and now we have a letter from Babcock, the whisky thief of Illingis, entreatihg’lngersoll, the infi‘del, to “save Indiana, and another from James Blaine, of Maine, saying ‘that he cannot leave Ohio;hecause Hayes had requested him to sfay and “rescue the State from the strong flood of opinion that has already set in against him. To prevent fraud, the polls must be watched for every instant by trusty men, who should be appointed in sufficient number to keep the ballot boxes and poll clerks under constant supervision, from the opening of the polls until the vote is coimtﬁd.. ‘gEte%-rx‘lal vigilanece is the price of liberty.”" .

Ll ..__%_ i sSad Accident.

- One of the most sad and terrible accidents we have hdd occasion to record for a long time occurred at Avilla, this county, last Saturday. John G. Smith, of the firm of Schutt & Smith, druggists, and son’ of Wm. Smith of Jefferson township, :accidentally: shot himdelf, with a rifle-cane, causing al-,‘ most instant death. = He had been shooting with the cane, and stepped. into the back room of the store, evidently to ftix something about the cane, a 8 it wad not working properly, when a report was heard, and upon going into the back room, he was found lying on the floor, and immediately expired. T'rom the indications, he had evidently turned the muzzle of the cane toward his head, to take the dirt from the end (a 8 we have often done ourself, having one.of the canes,) when by some accident, it was discharged, the ball striking him in the lower part of the neck, and passed up. Intothe brdin, .. - He was buried last Monday at the. Union Chapel, the funeral ceremonies were very largely attended: by the numerous. friends of the deceased and his family. He was married last June, and leaves a wife, father, mother, and two sisters.—Kendallville Standard,

“ Lgokout ” has stirred up the voting population toan alarming extent, and unquestionably has got hold of ‘she right horn of the dilemma.

A Confidence Man in ‘the Role of a i Real Estate Buyer - ° o (From the South Bend Daily Tribane of Sept. 28th.) A man who gave his name as Clark, and represented that he had but récently sold'his ‘arm in Elkhart county, made his,appeatance here three or four ‘days ago and began prospecting for a residence property to purchase. He finally selected that of Mrs. Fox, on Lafayette street, as best suiting him., She’ wanted $4,000 for it, but he offered a much lower figure. Finally, he went to her last night and said he would give her $3,700 in cash and give her until this morning to decide. . This morning about half-past seven o’clock he went t 6 the house in a great hurry and.pulling out a large wallet desired to leave it with the lady of the family occupying the house, telling her that he had bought the property and was having the deed made out at Judge Haggerty’s office. As he turned to go he suddently remembered that he would need $l7 to pay for making the ' transfer. “Could thelady accommodate him?”’ She did and now holds his wallet, which on being opened by her husband this noon,” was found to contain a few envelopes but nothirg whatever of value. ' It is a clear case of swindle from beginning to end.

To Shake, or Not to Shake. Agye, that-is the question. Is it better to quiver from head to foot in the paroxysms .of feyer and ague or to banish the atrocious disease by a course of that standard anti-ferbile remedy, Hostetter’s Bitters. There cannot be much doubt as to the re--sponse of the malaria-stricken to thiss inquiry. From every lpcality on this coutinent whose inhabitants are tormented with the shivering plague comes an increasing demand for the ‘only genuine preventive and eradicant of malaria provided by science. The denizens of fever and ague districts well know how utterly inadequate to do more than give a brief respite are the so-called remedies of the faculty. Quinine, ‘arsenic, bismuth—what are these but poisonous palliatives, which cease after a time to produce any beneficial effect whatever, and if persisted in wreak irreparable mischief upon the system? Everywhere they are being abandoned by intelligent persons, and that genuine vegetable specific for infermittent and remittent disease, Hostetter’s Bitters, substituted in their place. ' 2ddw,

The Democrats met in cenvention last night and placed in "nomination the following persons! for toWnsh‘i}pi__ offices: Trustee, C.R. Wiley; Assessoi',fv Samuel Braden; ‘Constable, C. B. Ditmer and. Beecher Inks. To-night the Republicans will meet and make their nominations.; Sast L We'had one of thve grandest rallies. at our pole-raising, on the 23d ult., that was ever held in this locality, notwithstanding the little streak of bad luck occasioned by the breaking of the pole. It was taken. down again, re-spliced and raised long before dark.. While the pole was being ‘Tespliced, Col. C. Williams. addressed the audience in a brief and able manner. The 'Busco Band, being present, discoursed = soul-stirring. music, and everything passed off quietly and con-. cluded with three rousing cheers for Tilden, Ilebkl‘rjcks and Referm, when the crowd dispersed for their several homes. The pole stands 118 feet above ground and bears aloff a streamer, 30 feet long, with the names of Tilden and Hendricks inscribed thereon. - The health of this community, seems to be I}etteﬁ now than it has been for some time past. P - A./SB. Yoder started for the West last Thursday. - s

RELIABLE EVIDENCE.

The following unsolicited testimonial from Rev. 0. T. Walker, formerly pastor ot. Bowdoia Square Church Boston, and at present settled in Providence, R. L., must be deemed as reliable evidence. No one should fail to observe that this testimonialis the result of two years’ experience with the use of VEGETINE in the Rev. Mr’ Walkker’s family, who now pronounce it invaluable:: '~ ProvIDENCE, R. 1., 164 Transit Street, - Mr..H. R. STEVENS: . E i
