The? asked him to speak, and after declining he consented. Jlis epc-ech is very, pretty, as his Fpeeehes always arc, but nothing new was elicited. He set lorth, in suh Ftance, as follows. He was a man of strong convic tions. lie had the personal friendship d both political friends and enemies. He differed from Gen. Hayes in regard to the national questions and reconstruction, as now being settled. He thought the people were burdened with a great load of. debt and that the revenues were not being collec ted and disbursed honestly: He opposed the adoption of the 15th Amendment. . " He opposed the immigration of the Chinese. He thought that business was dull and that prices were generally low for produce, and that but little was being done in dry goods and grocer ies. He claimed that taxation was large and unequally distributed. He thought, though he could not understand it, that the debt was not decreasing. He was sure that See retary Bout well was not managing the Treasury matters as he (Pendle ton should, and that was the cause of the claimed low prices, etc He thought the "bondholders'' were having things all their on way- Uc'was satisfied that we cannot pay the debt, and cites England - Laving attempted to pay a war debt and then giving it up as a bad job, and funding it. He closed insisting that the debt shall be paid. The speech is somewhat singular in that it is Eomewhat contradictory, and does not give the idea of Pendle ton upon the issue of the hundreds of million of greenbacks he used to lalk of issuibg, and upon which idea La went into the New York Conven tion soliciting the nomination for President. Pendleton and Coin Interest. The law authorizing the first issue of 5-20 bonds was passsed in 18G2, during the time that Pendleton was in Congress. When the bill passed "the Ilous-e it -did not provide for the payment of interest in coin. It was prut to the Senate in that shape, and that body so amended the bill as to provide for paying the interest on the bunds in coin. The bill was return ed to the House for its concurrence. Now. see how Pendleton voted upon the coin interest amendment. Thad Stevens, of honorable memory, and fifty-four Republicans opposed the Amendment, while Mr. Pendleton and nery Democrat but two in the House voted for its adoption ; and with their help it was adopted. If, then, Mr. Pendleton was against paying the "bondholder" goM, why did he not so vote ? In 18G2 he was for coin now he is for nothing in particular. In the language of the poet, proba bly now dead, "He wriggles is nod wriggles out, j And leaves the people still in doubt. Whether the man ho went for gol.l" in 1SG2, was wrong then or is wrong now when he thinks gold too precious for anybody. ' ; " Wanted to Know. You know, why S100 was paid for re pairing a bridge on a branch of Wolf Creek, when, as is asserted, it only took Thomas O'Brien and two boys, with a team, a little over one half of a" day to da the wjrk. Did the Com missioners know the fact? It isj siid that the repairing and the bridge are not worth $100. Why did not the Commissioners pay the bill as originally presented $125 instead of cutting it down. There would hare been more spoils to divide be tween the members tf the clique. Who got the money ? For further information, . apply to Mr; Patrick Duffy, an honest, sound Democrat, of Loudon township, and who lives near the bridge referred to. Like many other Democrats he don't like to pay so much for nothio". Wanted to Know, You know, how matly perches 0f toqc there are in the culvert on . the Fostoria road, just beyond Bascom, near 'Squire Byer's. ..It U built where there is no water more than three months in a year, and is said to have cost the x oderate little sum of S3C0 00. Either atone and labor are terribly high in that neighborhood, I 1 m or Bomeooay maae a cent, for cent profit, which the people had to pay. Stone are not very hi;h there, and somebody got a swingeing 6um for a little work. There are several culverts on the anj road, and tax payers would like t know if they each cost a like sum. John Seitz Heard From. Under the bead oY "X ews fom the Workmen," Crawford County Fontm p-aMishe the following epis tle : RURAL RETREAT. Aug. 31, '39. j Pa'iE N D C LVM E B : Having recently perused several copies of the Fornvi, I take this method of acknowledging the same. Regarding the 'Organ" of the Craw ford county Democracy as excellent authority on a question of political soundness, I may be excused for be ing slightly flattered by your compli mentary notice. Please accept my thanks, not so much for what is per sonal, as for the tribute paid to that old-fashioned 'State Eights Democ racy,' which alone interposes a bar rier to the march of despotic central ization. I enjoyed your 'Rooster' at the nomination of Pendleton. I almost tossed my hat at the announcement. Now have we a representative man, with hands unstained with fraternal blood, and uncontaminated with any of the isms of these degenerate limes. Our Central Committee is not yet organized, but by invitation of the people, I expect to begin the busi ness of ratifying, on next Saturday night. Enclosed find change for Forum during campaign. Truly yours, with sentiments of" friendly re JOHN SEITZ. Tiffin, Ohio. As a letter, we think the foregoing sound ; we think it foreshadows a irgal..able and "tumultuous'' course in the House of Representatives. We imagine the spell-bound admira tion with which his Democratic friends will be struck when John arises, in his might, to speak. We feel for the terror that will take pos session of the Republican Represen tatives when the great Seits arises and hurls his words of denunciation against the Republican party. Oh 1 Seitz, Seitz, why did you do thus ? But to the letter. John lives in a "rural retreat" not a house. Now, whether this "ru ral retreat" is embowed with vines grape or flowering we are uninform ed ; and why John lives in such, a place we don't know. It must be bad for his rheumatism, and we th:.nk his friends ought to build him a house- The great John is flattered he is politically sound through him is paid a tribute to old-fashioned "State Rights Democracy," which, with John, "alone interposes a barrier to the march of despotic centralization." Here John's elucidation fails he dont tell the name of the commander of that march, or how it is otherwise officered. Neither does he tell how he took that "Rooster" whether it was boiled, fried, roasted or raw. "He almost tossed his hat" because Pen dleton was nominated. Perhaps that he did not quite toss it was fortunate for the hat. Now, John gets clear again. He likes Pendleton, and thinks his hands are not stained with fraternal blood," as were Rosecrans' that was why he "almost tossed his hat.' Then John discovers that Geo. II. P. "is not contaminated with any of the isms of these degenerate times.'' again that was why he "almost tosd his hat ;" though he leaves it to the reader to llnfl "OUt TO What ipruntre faa. That is a good letter from John it is an able letter it is a feeling let ter it nn lMiientlftitr Tluuifrh enemies may complain thtt John's letter is not quite plain on some points that he might have been a little more lucid, we point in triumph to the fact and state for the benefit of all such, that John "almost tossed his hat.'' We 6hall vote for John, after vot ing for our own candidates provided the Judges of election will let u. John's letter suits U3. It is from Ru ral Retreat, and Rural Retreat is in Seneca County, and as a homo insti tution it should be supported. The Way to Electioneer. Democratic should take lessoLs ia electioneering for vote3 of Millhime, candidate for Clerk. Recently some of his friends told him he ought to visit Tiffin and do something for himself, for fear things might go againsc him. Millhime came! Millhime saw! but Millhime didn't conquer, as it turned out. The first person he approached was a Catholic and a sound Democrat. Millhime got on a pleasant grin and proceeded to talk something like the following Well, Mr. : , I suppose you'll go the "State Ticket this fall. We've got a good ticket and platform; and I hope you will go for the Coun ty ticket leastways vote for me. I want to be elected. When I go to church, I always go to the Catho lic. We never have service in that church' but what I :ro there. I like the Catholics." The gentleman he a was talking to was astonished. The putting of a reason why Millhime should have votes upon the ground ttiat be tts rgnkr attendant at the Catholic Church rather stumped him tumped him so much that he didn't promise to vote for the ncly fledged church-goer. Millhime is wide awake, but we'll bet a trifle that he attends no church often enough not to create surprise when he slips in. Further, that he goes to no church to any alarming extent. We feel that Millhime has struck out in a new line in political elec tioneering; but he must not cany it to far for fear of creatinz disgust. Great is Millhime ! Wanted to Know You know, what the bridge over the Sandusky, below Fort Seneca, cost. Is it true that it cost, or will cost, upwards of ?15,000? Is" it within a mile and a half of another bridge? Was it put there to accommodate a Commissioner, and render hid land more valuable ? .Had the Commis sioners the right to levy such a sum to build a bridge ? Was it of such importance to have that bridge, that our already heavily loaded people should have additional tax thrust ap on them? . We respectfully suggest to the AdvertUer that it shall not attempt to answer the articles upon the fool ish waste to put it quietly of the people's money. Such an attempt will injure it. The people are think ing both. Democrats and Republi cans and the former begin to think it time that a change for the better in the management of our County fi nances,' took place. Keep mum, Mr. AdvertUer. It will be much letter for you. Unlike cny other county in the State, Seneca is unnecessarily taxed that the pets of the Democratic poli ticians may get fat in pocket. For years the Commissioners have been owned by a political ring in THSn. That ring pockets largely of the peo ples' money, and allows the Commis sioners to add largely to their posses sions. It is asseited that, almost without exception, the Commission ers ot years past have always left that office with an increase of thou sands of dollars in money. That money was made, so it said, by letting fat jobs to certain persons and then dividing the profits. Pendleton -in his "Home Speech'' cannot see that the Administration is economical. lie should read, and get information before he makes such an assertion. The government is being economical ly administrated. The economical policy may be seen in the fact that in 18C2 the expenditures of the Gov ernment amounted in round numbers to e570.800.000; in 1SG5, to $1,900, 000,000, which was the largest ex penditure in any one year since the foundation of the Government. In 1863 the amount expended was $1, 700,000,000, while for the year end ing June 30, 1869, the amount was ?5851OP01OQQ.bcin2 only - 515,000,000 more than the expenditures in 18C2. The deaths occurring by the Avon dale, Pa., coal mine disaster, foot, up one hundred and eight murdered in the mines, and two suffocated who went down into the mine to attempt to relieve the sufferers. Great in dignation is manifested by the miners over the disaster, which they justly claim was from the neglect of the proprietors to take precautions to prevent such trouble. Contributions are being made up in Pennsylvania and New York to relieve the suffer ers fifty-nine widows and one. hun dred and nine orphans. Senatorial Candidate. The following is the acceptance the nomination for Senator, by S of It Harris, Esq : BUCYRUS, Sept. 6, 1869. G. J. KEEN Esq. Chairman Republican Senatorial Con vention. Dear Sir: Your letter of the 18th ultimo, came duly to hand, informing me of my nomination by the conven tion over which you presided, as can didate to represent the counties of Crawford, Seneca, and Wyandot in the Senate ot Ohio. Professional engagements have de layed me in returning an early reply, and I cannot now express my gratifi cation for the regard of my party but by this simple acknowledgement. I shall take great pleasure in con tributing what I can, in my humble way, in combating, in this District, the dominant party, which has no past or present merit to recommend it ; which preferred the destruction of our nationality rather than the loss of political power, and which is now oppressing the people with local taxation at home and partisan legisla tion for tl.c State. With my best wishes for the Re publican party, and my kind regards flwr4 jwuraolf, porsoou.lly, I remaijl your humble servant, S. R. HARRIS. Pendleton and the Negro. When the bill wis before Con gress for enlisting negroes into the army of the United States, upon the 31st of January, 1803, in a speech taking ground against the enlistment of negroes for soldiers, reported in the Congressional Globe, Mr. Pendleton spoke as follows: "If these black troops are to stand on an equality with the white troops on the battlefield and at every point of danger, and in all the other re lations of a soldier's life, and at ev ery other moment they are to be marked by a degrading and ignomi nous isolation, how long will you be able to maintain discipline and order in your army-I do not say contentment and zeal and alacrity among these troops? "And what do you propose to do with these black soldiers after they shall have returned from the battle field? Gentlemen have told us that these enlistments are found neces sary, in order that the army of the United States may be made suffi ciently strong to accomplish the work it has to do. They tell us we are in the very crisis of the war. They tell us that now is the time to put forth our whole power, or else the result of the struggle is in doubt. They tell us that the white race alone, so tar as its strength has yet been developed, is not en tirely competent to render to the Union and the Constitution an as sured victory. And they tell us that these colored men are ready with their strong arms and their brare hearts to maintain the supre macy of the Union which in our hands to-day is imperilled. "What is that Constitution? It provides that every child of the Re public, every citizen of the land, is befuro tlio law tKo ocaal o avavy other. It provides for all of them trial by jury, free speech, free press, entire protection for life and liberty and property. "It goes further. It secures to every citizen the right to hold office, the right to aspire to every office or agency by which the Goverment is carried on. Every man called upon to do military duty, every man re quired to take op" arms in its de fense, is by its provisions entitled to vote, and a competent aspirant for every office in the Goverment. "You now say to tbese black men, come to the defense of this Constitution. Come aid us to main tain its supremacy. Come aid us to uphold a Goverment which is thus beneficent to all its children.' Suppose your utmost hopes are realized; suppose they come, and that by their aid you are successful. They will come back with your vic torious hosts, following the banner of the Republic, battle-worn and maimed and scarred. What will you do with them? Will you consign them again to political in feriority, to social isolation? Will you again deny to them those priv ileges which are guaranteed to them by the Constitution which they have helped you to maintain?" Now Mr. Pendleton opposes the 15th Amendment, and proposes to deny the negro the right of suffrage; and that too, when, according to to his own words, the Constitution guarantees it them. Mrv Pendleton is a gentleman ard all that, but he is somewhat in consistent. ! DEMOCRATIC SECRET CIRCULARS. The Way Democrats Propose to carry the Election. Awake Republicans! Last week we published an article entitled "Open Your Eyes," in which we cautioned Republicans that the Democracy were at work in secret and that it was our duty to meet them. Since then we have been furnished the fol'owing circulars, which set forth jut what they are doing. Read them and then go to work and offset their labor : DEMOCRATIC STATE CENTRAL AND EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ROOMS EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ROOMS Columbus, O. Aug. 20th, 1869. PLAN OF ORGANIZATION. Let each County Central Committee organize their county on the fol lowing plan : 1st. Appoint a good man in each township or ward, to organize his township or ward on the following plan : 2d. Select and secure the services of one good, earnest reliable Demo crat in each school district of his township, to make out a list of the voters in his district in the following order, the names being arranged al phabetically. 1. A list containing the name of every certain Democrat. 2. A list containing every certain Republican. 3. A list containing every doubt ful voter. 4. A list of every man who should be challenged, and why. Have these lists made out and completed by the 20th of September, at the very farthest one copy to be retained by the Township Commit teeman, and another to be sent to the Chairman of the County Central Committee. By the Saturday previous to the election, have each certain Democrat and doubtful voter furnished with at least two tickets, and obtain his pledge to attend the polls before noon on election day. Every doubtful voter must before the election, be placed in charse of some Democrat friend ot his, who is to try and get hi in to vote the Dem ocratic ticket. The Township Committeeman and the School District Committeeman must all be at the polls against 5 o'clock of the morning of the elec tion, and there stay and work for the ticket until the polls close in the evening and the votes arc counted out. Circulate documents amoung doult ful voters. Let Township Commit teemen cc that conveyances are pro vided to bring aged and infirm vo ters to the polls. Appoint no Committeemen of any kind who will not perform the labor entrusted to them, and that with a will. Have every Democratic vote in the ballot box by noon. Use every hon orable meaus to increas: the Demo cratic vote in each ward or township in your county. Have plenty of tickets priuted at least ten days or two weeks belore the election, and distribute them liberally to the Township Committeemen and doubt ful voters. The success of the party this year depends on the workings of the sev- keral Uountv Committees, in seeing that their counties are thoroughly organized. County Committees are expected and required to send to the Chairman of the State Executive Committie, by September 25th, a lists taken in each county in the S'ate, in the manner above sugges ted, showing the number of Demo crats, the number of Republicans, aud the number of doubtful voters in each township and ward, in order that a complete summing up of the State can be made by the State Exe cutive Committee as early as the 1st day of October. Ohio will be carried this fall for Peudleton: but every Democrat in the State must do his duty to secure that glorious result. That duty will be in having his county, township and school district organized and organized well and thoroughly. What Democrat in Ohio is there that will not rejoice over Pendleton's election and a Democratic Legislature? These results will Le attained but work will be done. Let every Democrat fell and take a pride in securing these glorious results. Victory al ways comes to the army that fights manfully and does its whole duty. Let the Democratic army of Ohio make a gallant charge against the Black Republican legion, from now until the polls close on the Second Tuesday of next October, and that day will be ours. Lot the Democrat ic watchword be, Work, in season and out of season; Work, at all ti nes and in all proper places. By order Democratic State Execu tive Committee. JOHN G. THOMPSON. Chairman. GEO. W. SEEKER, Secretary. DEMOCRATIC STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE ROOMS. COLUMBUS. O. August 31st, 1869. Sir : We are receiving at this time, from all parts of the State, the mo:;t encouraging reports of the sit uation. Your State Executive Com mittee arc working night and day, distributing documents, circulars, &e urging the most thorough or ganization o? the party. This is the first work to be done. Push your organization by townships and school districts according to tne pian rec ommended in our circular on the 20th inst. Don't delay this for a day. The most thorough organization we have ever had is a necessity, but with which we are just assure to succeed as an election is. held. As soon as the lists are complete, have a copy of the result sent to us, which wc hope rill not be later than the 15th September, as it is of the utmost im portance that we have these lists by that time, and sooner if possible. We want every Democrat to inter est himself in the canvass, and many votes can be made by personal effort and kindly appeal to neighbors. Hold "basket" meetings,, "picnics," township and school district meet ings, and have "always the best speak er attainable to address those assem bled. We would especially recom mend the "basket" meetings, as in them the yoang men of both par ties become interested, and many ac cessions may be. made to our ranks. Upon consultation with the can didates and leading men of the party, and for strong reasons urged, the holding of mass meetings generally throughout the State has been post poned tj about the 20th .of Septem ber. In the meantime let no effort or work be omitted in the way of local meetings and organization. We earnestly ask you not to run over this circular hastily and throw it aside without further though. The crisis is an important one. It is perhaps the decisive battle between unprotected labor and grasping cap ital, and we should meet the issue with firm determined purpose. But work is necccssary organized, ear nest and persistent work and if this be done, as we specially call upon you to do it, there is not the shadow of doubt but that we will carry the State by a handsome ma jority. The opposition show no spirit, and we are every day receiv ing accounts of accessions to our ranks from them. There never was a better chance to succeed; and there never was a time when success was more important to us. Please consult with your other leadin men and let me know what you want in the way of meetings and when, as we want to make up our list of appointments at once. Having confidence that your coun ty will do her full duty in assisting to carry the State for Pendleton, 1 remain, very truly, JOHN G. THOMPSON. Chairman Dem. Ex. Com. OBITUARY. DIED.
