WHEN THIS OLD HAT WAS NEW.
A CAMPAIGN' SOXO
It is a trim saying that a man is known hy tho t oiu
pany lie keeps, and tlu'se lines are written to show the
character of the Democratic l'rKtental candidate for
ISTtJ.
When this old hat was new, !ys,
Sam Tildeti and Uill Tweed,
Were bosom cronies in New York,
And mighty well agreed,
The tricks one did not think of, sir,
The other surely knew ;
And so they swelled their bank accounts,
When this old hat was new.
When this old hat was new, boys,
Oh! how the money went;
They scooped the city treasury up,
And jvt were not content,
l!y plans that Sam invented, sir,
Known but to very few.
They counted llofl'man Governor,
When this old hat was new.
When this old hat was new, boys,
And everything serene,
While Sammy ran the railroads.
The lloss ran "the machine."
With Hotl'man ui the Hudson, sir,
Oh! how the money Hew ;
llcforni was what they did not want,
When this old hat was new.
when this old hat was new, boys,
ireat scandals were atloat ;
The Tanfiiy ring bioken up,
The r.os was made scapegoat ;
Ungrateful Sam at last began,
'though still one of the crew,
To cry "Stop thief!" and keeps it up,
Since that oil hat was new.
When this old hat was new, boys,
If we have learned the facts,
Our Sammy made a false return
Upon his income tax ;
And hail the law but reached tbe fraud,
And dealt him justice true,
Like Tweed he'd worn a striped suit,
When this old hat was new.
When this old hat was new, boys,
A funny thing to see
Was link- Sam a figuring
The President to be.
lie pardoned convicts great and small,
Anil Tweed to Cuba Hew,
l-'or Sammy had no use for him,
When this old hat was new.
Although this hat is old, boys,
And bleached by the sun,
I'll wear it like an honest man
Until the victory's won;
I'll swing it in the air, boys,
l'or Hayes and Wheeler true,
And next November I will win
A dozen bright and new.
Headquarters Republican State Commit
tee, Philadelphia, Oct. 14, 1S7G.
To the People of Pennsylvania:
Eleven years after the overthrow of the
rebellion we find the men who forced it
upon the country again preparing to seize
the Government. It is the old Confederate
army united upon the old Confederate
here?'. The have never abandoned their
cherished idea they still think with Mr.
Tildcn that ours is a concik-raci;, and not
a lt'itiun. They have made him their
candidate because he never abandoned bis
declared conviction that '-the Constitution
of the United States is only orgnized revolu
tion," and that "any State has the right to
snap the tie at its pleasure."
This was the heresy that fired the rebel
gun from Charleston against Sumter in
1SG1 ; and this is the heresy they are
rcmarshalled in 1S70 to re-establish.
To this end they have crushed out Re
publican opinion in every Southern State.
To this end they have made the white Re
publican an outcast and the black Repub
lican a vassal. To this end, coercion of
Republicans is their stern discipline. By
force, their Confederate heresy is again the
cement to make a Solid South.
The Confederate army is far mere united
to-day in the new effort to seize the Govern
ment than it was fifteen years ago in the
mad effort to destroy it. To-day treason
is aided by their sympathizers in the
North. The' have concentrated the strug
gle upon a single issue the revolution of
the Govern incut. The)' sink every other
question out of sight, and therein tuy
teach lis viir duty.
Shall they recover by the ballot,- con
ferred upon them by Republican magna
nimity, what they lost on the battle-field
in conflict with the people they betra'ed ?
Wc have met and vanquished their as
saulting columns five times since the first
Tuesday of September, 1S7G in Vermont,
Maine, Colorado, Ohio, and Indiana gain
ing ten members of Congress, electing five
Legislatures, including that of Indiana,
which even the rebel raiders from Ken
tucky were not able to capture.
Democratic-victories in the South arc only
evidences of Democratic terrorism over
Republicans. Sixty-five thousand Demo
cratic majority in Georgia means 05,000
rebel shotguns at the polls.
Three weeks only are left to us to meet
the new crisis forced upon us by these men.
What will l'cnnxylcanlan do .- Our enemies,
confident of success full coercion all over the
South, have resolved to make another
attack upon this great State. They leave
the South in the safe custody of the re
organized Confederate army, and they arc
now, as in lSu", marching upon Pennsyl
vania in determined array, and their rebel
yell already is heard within our limits.
Let us be prepared for them. Our great
Commonwealth has always been the strong
hold of nationality. During the war she
gave her treasures of men and money to
the cause of her country. Staudiug be
tween the two sections, she has always been
tho foe' of sectionalism. Slio stood by
Lincoln, Grant, Sherman, and Meade dur
ing all the struggles of the war. The peo
pie believed that when Vicksburg and
Gettysburg fell on the dth of July, lSbo,
the great work of restoration was accom
plished and the rebellion was dead, but
they are now brought face to face with a
NO. 21.
revolution as dangerous as the rebellion
itself.
When fifteen States can be more unified
by the shotgun and the bludgeon than they
were by armed secession itself, and when
this combination is enforced by the sup
pression of free speech, a free ballot, and
tree schools, its success mu.-t end our re
publican experiment. These men tried to
light their way out of the Union at vn
incalculable sacrifice of htumian life, and
now they are trying within the Union, by
new forms cf violence and fraud, to re
establish the dogmas supposed to be destroy
ed on the battle-field. All they ask is a
suiheii'iit contingent from tho free States to
complete their programme.
It is in this Centennial year, when Penn
sylvania is inviting all the nations to her
hospitalities, and proffering encouragement
and kindness to her Southern sisters, that
the Confederates advance upon her borders
to make another effort for the heresy which
originated and prolonged the rebellion.
Pennsylvania demands "peace and unity,"
but sdie demands them as the result" of
cheerful obedience to just law, and not as
the sullen submission compelled by the?
officers of the law.
Pennsylvania demands industrial and
commercial prosperity ; but she knows that
these are the fruits of peaceful and orderly
society, based upon honesty and right, and
cannot grow out of the. anarchy and chaos
threatened in a Solid South. Pennsylvania
will first have justice, then prosperity. Has
the country no road to prosperity but that,
which disgraces the sears of the living
soldiers and dishonors the craves of the
dead ?
Pcnnsylvanian will have purity in public
administration, but she wants none of the
illusive promises of "reform" made by Til
den and illustrated by Tweed and the
disciples of Tammany Hall.
Men of Pennsylvania, upon you rests
the responsibility yours is the absorbing
obligation. Will you "Hold the Fort ?'
By order of the committee.
IIeniiy M. IIoyt, Chairman.
A. Wilson Noruis, Secretary.
Hayes, Tilden, and the American Alliance
The latest campaign lie set on foot by
the reform party, charging Gov. Hayes with
indorsing the principles of an obscure or
ganization styling itself '-The American Al
liance," has already tumbled to the ground.
The following letter is couclu;iveou tho
subject :
1 wish to correct some mistakes made
by persons in commenting upon the letter
sent to the American Alliance by Mr. A,
E. Lee, Gov. Haye's secretary. 1. Gov.
Hayes never was a member of the Ameri
can Alliance. 2. lie never saw the consti
tution or by-laws of the organization. 3.
No committee of this order ever ;tt any
time called on him, either at Philadelphia,
Columbus, or any other place, for any pur
pose. Wc simply informed him by letter
that we indorsed his nomination, in answer
to which we received the letter from his
secretary. That letter was taken from my
ofliee, and I was as much surprised as any
one can be to see it in print.
I am at a loss to see why Democratic pa
pers should find any fault with the pro
ceedings, as we indorsed 3Ir. Tilden for
Governor two pears ago. and he found no
fault with it, but on the contrary was very
groateful fur the assistance, only he reques
ted that it be kept secret, as, if it should
become public, he learned he would lose
the foreign vote. Respectifully yours,
Lemuel S. Tyler,
Secretary American Alliance.
New York, Oct. G, 1S7G.
TILDEN'S StRIOTISM.
Mr. Daniel P. Jones, an authorized agent
of the United States Christian ComnnsMon
during the war, has made oath to the fol
lowing facts, which throw additional light
upon Tilden's war record which John Bigc
low has, tried so hard to illuminate.
New York-, Sept. 21, 1S7G.
I, Daniel P. Jones, of the City of New
York, being duly sworn depose and say
that during tho time when the United
States Christian Commission was in cxist
teiiee, and about September of ISC.', whose
mission it was to furnish supplies of provi
sions and medicines to the sick and wound
ed soldiers, (I then holding an appointment
under said commission,) Mr. Samuel J.
Tilden was waited on by me and solicited
to aid, when the said S. J. Tilden made in
substance the following reply: "I would
rather see all the soldiers starve to death
than give them one cent," and the said S.
J. Tilden did not contribute.

EELS SWALLOWING BIRDS.
From the (iermsntown Telegraph.
The ground-squirrel, which the Potts
town Ledger mentions as having been prob
ably swallowed by a huge bass, more likely
fell a victim to a large eel. This is a very
common habit with this fish in marshes of
the Delaware when the tide is up and rail
shooting is iu vogue. One has to be quick
in picking up the birds when shot, as we
have known eels to seize and make off with
them. This is particularly the case with
fluttering wounded birds. Water snakes of
large size will do the same. Wc have
often seen good sized fish iu the mouths
of even small snakes.
The Sioux call Mr. Tilden, "Old m in-afraid-to-pay-his
taxes."
