Fighting on tho Wrong Line.
Tbe political editor of the Beacon
warns to know "why baa not a
Greeubacker as mncli right to
advocate bis principles as Demo-crats
or Republicans t" Why, of
coarse be has. Nobody ilispntm
that. It is Dot a question of right
at all, it is simply one ot sound
sense and good judgment. There
is not a Qreenbacker in North (Jar-oliua
or anywhere else who has not
a perfect right to do a tbousaud
things which be would ho ealled
very foolish for doing, and Given
backers who have heretofore voted
with the Democratic party have n
right if they see Dc to throw their
votes away and tints help the
Republicans in the day ot their
greatest need. Do not nnderstand
as to say that they meau to aid the
Republicans for we do no* think
they do, bat that is the effect of
their action. While they are
dissemmiDating their principles,the
Republicans are nuited, and inspir-ed
with the knowledge that nine
oat of ten Greeuback votes polled
in this section of the State will
oome from the Democratic patty,
are working with renewed energy
and increased hopes ot sneces*.
Southern Greeubackers know
they have nothing to expect from
the Republican party, which if it
had the power would hold the
Democrat ant! Greeubacker alike
under tbe iron heel of despotism,
bat they have somethiug to expect
from the Democratic party, which
is the champion ot popular liberty,
and the protector of the people
whom the Republican party, if its
leaders could carry out their pur-poses,
would reduce to a condition
of thraldom. The history of
Radical rale in the South should
not so soon be forgot ten by the
Greeubacker who was once a Dem-ocrat
and as such struggled against
and helped to throw off that party
despotism.
It is only a Question, men, ol
wisdom whether our Greenback
friends who have heretofore acfed
with us shall continue so to act, or
by persisting in voting for candi-dates
of their own, whose election
by their votes is an impossibility,aid
in the success of the Radicals who
have not one particle of sympathy'
with them. The Democratic partj
even when only in parlis1 posses
BIUU of the Government has done
much to ameliorate the financial
conditiou of the country and break
t."J;6werof the despotism which
was throwiug its mighty coils
around us. They can do more ant!
will, more tban the Greeubackers
could reasonably hope to do « 'liiu
the lifetime of any man who uow
affiliates with tin in.
They were once Democrats and
helped to ctush out Radicalism,
which was their ei.emy then mid is
uow.
An American commander with
his fleet was in a Chinese .. t
when the Chinese attacked tbe
crew of au English vessel. The
American looked on for a moment
and exclaimed, "by G—d, met),
blood is thicker than water!"and
turning his guns on the Chinese
put them to flight.
We don't apprehend Ljie defeat
of our candidates by 'lit loss of
Greenback votes, bat we waut to
see unitet! action of all those who
are opposed to the principles and
practices of the Radical party, BO
that its defeat may be so over
whelming that the organization
will be utterly destroyed. In thin
effort all good men can unite and
should unite.

Coming Over.
Scarcely a Northern newspaper
comes to hand, that does not
record the name of some prominent
Republican who has abandoned the
Republican party and joined the
Democratic party. Republican par-tisan
sheets, of coarse, do not pub-lish
news of this kind for they
would rather couceal jt. Never
within our political experience has
there been so many changes from
one party to another within so short
a time, and never so many men
prominent and influential in the
party which they abandoned.
Whilst we are williug to do these
men the justice to admit that they
are actuated by patriotic motives
it is still s sign of the times, and
an evidence of the change iu pnblie
sentiment which has taken place
within tbe past few years.
As a rule politicians rather fol-low
than bad public sentiment, and
when weseeold politicians abandon-ing
the party to which they have
adhered tor voars, it is ptetty good
evidence that they consider that
party in a bad way.
And when they endorse the can-didate
of the party they have just
joined as enthusiastically as they
now endorse Hancock, it is indica-tive
of a popularity that makes bis
election almost a foregone conclus-ion.
Among the most ardent and
tireless advocates of the success of
the Democratic party to day are
men who have just recently joined
it,—.men like Jobu W. Forney, Ben
F Butler, Gen. Dau. Sickles, who
in the past were amongst the hard-est
figUters the Democracy had to
encounter. As bard aa they fought
u.s then they are fighting as bard
for us now, and on tbe stump and
iu the press are doing good and
gallant work for Hancock.
On the other hand we do not re-member
to have seen tbe name ot a
single Democrat who has announc-ed
himself for Gat field.
Under these circumstances, and
the cii.m ;•• in popular opinion as
showu iu tbe elections recently held
we regard the defeat of Gen. Han-cock
as almost among thej impos-sibilities,
aud it it should occur
woultl be among the in^ctupreaen-sible
."■", ,,is of the age.
Aa we look the future in (he face

Judge Black on Gariield.
.Hotr Oarfield thinks Treachery
kit Country Fidelity to hit
Faction.
Iu
[New York World, Sept. ■£,, 1880.]
The following letter from the HOD.
J. S. Black of Pennsylvania, sent in
reply to an invitation to attend tbe
great Democratic mass meeting of
Thursday evening, but not received
in time to be read that evening, will
command tbe attention of thinking
men of all shades of political opin-ion
:
BBOCKIK, YORK, PA., Sept. 22,1880
Gentlemen: I cannot attend the
meeting of the Democratic-Repub-licans
at tbe city of Now York on
the 23d inst. But I can assure you
of my concurrence in its object, aud
if time and space permitted I could
give you a reason for the faith that
is within me. • • •
In public affairs General Garfield
does not act upon his convictions :
when he passes into 111 - - domain of
politics bis conscience loses its grip;
and for bis party he is willing to do
any wrong which will promote their
interests, or play any card, how
falBe soever, which will wiu them
power. This surrender of his moral
aud mental integrity is the condi
tion upon which he holds his high
place iu the affections of the part]
he belongs to. Treachery to his
country is fidelity to his faction.
If at any time iu the last fifteen
years be bad supported the consti-tution
aud laws iu a spirit of pure
justice, refused to defile himself
with electiou frauds, withheld his
countenance from executive corrup-tion
or denounced the forcible in-stallment
of thieves iu state offices,
he would bave converted bimsell
into a Democrat aud beeu expelled
from the communion of tbe auti
constitutional party. • •
General Garfield's public career
furnishes more striking examples
of moral prostitution thau the his-tory
of any individual 1 bave
known. a a e •
Buying up Democratic Votes.
[Raleigh Newe-Obeervai.j
In western North Carolina they
say gangers bave been appointed
in excess of the demand. Meu who
have heretofore voted the Demo-cratic
ticket are given commissions,
and are told that they will be given
four dollars a day if tbey can find a
still to locate witb. Iu order to get
their pay, they offer to give two dol-lars
a day to any man who will
start a still, so that they can locate
as ganger and draw the per diem.
And thus it seems that Uncle Sam's
liberality in tbe matter ot commis
sions h. s the effect of multiplying
stills. It hlso has tbe effect of buy-iug
up a few Democratic voters for
the Garfield titRet, to be paid for
out ot tbe Federal treasury.

About as mean a political uoage
as lias coiiie uutler our observation
yet in this campaign is a tour, of
application for n U. S. pension by a
S mill Oar 'I :ua Confederate soldier, j
copies »l which have been struck j
Off and are now being extensively j
circulated e.uioug the faithful by I
Federal office holders The object
I, i i course, to make people believe
that it the Democrats get into pow-er,
tbe Confederate soldiers will all
be appl) ing for pensions. Whether
such an application was ever made
we dou'i keow, but the probabilities
are that it is a fraud, gotten up to
tlo campaign duty ; or it is possible
thai some Con lederate soldier might
have beeu employed by some Radi
cal politician to make the applica-tion,
iu older that it might be used
as a campaign document, us is is
Uow being used. Whether it be
geonine or bogus it is, to say the
least ot it, a contemptible dodge,
ami shows tbe calibre of the men
w ho resort to it.
— The Yorktown Centennial promises
to be a very distinguished affair. Presi-dent
Gravy, of the French republic, baa
written to Dr. Duliamel, of Washington,
oue of tho eul.-ceininittea on the celebra-tion
appointed by the congressional com-mittee,
to nay list the French cabinet has
favorably considered the invitation to
lake part in the celebiaiiou. The noto ia
very polite, aud encourages the ptoapeet
that a French regiment and a detachment
from the French navy will he detailed to
represent Franc- on the occasion.
So it seems, that Sir. Weaver iu-trouueed
his Soldier bill to please
the soldiers, not that unexpected to
rvgeg it. I* was very i mm ala!

There was ito earthly excise for
denying this; no contradiction of it
COild be honest. To count the
state for Hayes was u thing Inn*
could be done only by Impudent
B'd unmitigated fraud. General
Garfield gave his active assistance
in that great crime His judgment
as a member of the Electoral Com-mission
was a thing to be expected,
for he must long before that bave
convinced bimsell, Hjftt a fraud was
as good a way as any other of elect-ing
a President. In a political
game he did not think that any-body
hail moral seuse enough to ab-stain
from throwing a die which he
himself had loaded to win »he
stake. • * *
Tho Credit Mobilier stock dis
tributed by Oaken Ames was In-tended
to influence the legislation
of Congress cortuptly. He and the
company who put it into his hands
meant business, and that business
wan bribery. General Gsrfield
i greed to take the stock, ? id did
actually take dividends upon it.
Ttiey had but one answer,aud 'hat
was a positive denial ot the fact
that any stock had ever been taken
by them ; and ou that line they ex
peeled Mr. Ames to swear tbeni
through. General Garfield united
in uiakiug this false defense. Their
witness failed them, and they were

"It Hardly Awakens Resp ct
To-day "
[J. W Foruey, at Chickeriug Hall. S Y.,
Sept. Wth.]
• • • The nomination
of General Garfield has no rapture
in it It aroused no enthusiasm at
the first ; it hardly awakens respect
to-day. It came upon them as cold
as a widow's breath in June; it is
colder iu September; it will be the
ice of death iu Novembei. • *
Where were old Democrats like my-self
to go under such circum-stances
! There was no place for
us in a party which had lost all or
nearly all its old chiefs by death or
desertion. There was no room in
"a machine" that like a sulky
held only one in a State. Every
mau of my school must feel as I
have realized since ; every Demo-crat,
or Henry Clay Whig, now
alive, who joins the Uaucock col-umu,
must feel that

When 1 was actively engaged in the
dry gootls bneineos, 1 went to New York
iwiceayear. Bo oo onsoftbooB trip. I
got on a Blow train from Philadel-phia
to New York, and arriving in the
latter city about midnight, 1 ■*.....■ i
i<p Cortisndl street t,i Broadway sod I
a-ked al'oticeinan how wafl tb- licet way
to get up tothe Continental Motel, a mile
or »o up town, ami he said "wait until an
oininhuH, jomea along and take that." 1 did
to. I bad walked by that time np Broad-way
to about oppo.itc the city Hall
Bqoaro aod as I went to step into the
,.uas, w-veral persons, men attempted to
lo to and one old big lellow pretended to

Policeman, he said "you are right, they
have spotted yoa." What shall 1 do then I
"Take the next stage" he tald. I did so aud
had not gone but a few blocks before tbe
same men got la, a few at a time. And I
recognized the old big one especially, and
I |ust put my right hand into my bosom
aa if 1 had a weapon and 1 believe to this
day that saved nie from being ehoked
down in the stage or drugged and robbed.
So wbeu 1 reached tbe depot last night
I was oae mile from llu, centre of tho city
