BEDFORD GAZETTE. 0. F. MEYERS, EDITOR. FRIDAY, t > J i : APRIL 3, 1883. THE CUT OF "STOP THIEF." —The Abolition zd "Republicans" know that they deceived the people, when at the commencement of the war, they assured them that armies were not be ing raised for the abolishment of slavery, and that the war was to be waged only for the res toration of the Union. Hence, when the poor, weary, diseased and worn out soldier deserts in order to visit his starving wife and children, these miserable polilical hucksters, (feeling that on them rests the blame for the discontent which caused him to leave the army) in order to screen their own guilt from public observation, raise the cry that the "Copperheads" nnd those whom they term "Secession Sympathizers," are the cause of desertion. But the people know that the Abolitionists alono are in the fault. They got men to enlist by telling them that they were not to tight to free the negro, but only for the Union. They have broken their word with those men and are now trying to compel them to fight for the freedom nf the negro. That is tho reason why there is so much desertion.— The cry of "stop thief!" will not do in this ertse. DOWNRIOHT FATAIFICATTOK. —The Abolition organ around the. corner tells n deliberate false hood when it says that its party friends earned their wholo ticket in East Providence tp., at the late Spring Elections,(with the exception of two | Inspectors) "by a hundred and ten or twenty ! majority." The Abolition majority in that tp. I has been cut down to 50 and 60 for the differ- J cnt township officers, whilst their inspectors have ■ each, only five or six majority over tho Demo- ! cratic candidate. The highest Abolition vote : polled wns only 110, whilst the Democratic vote ' was 45, as large as is generally polled at State ' elections. Tho Organ also claims "loyal gains" i in West Providence, Middle and South Wood-1 bury and Union! It must moan Democratic, i gains, for in all of those townships the Demo crats have done better than they have for years. Try another "load of poles," Wheelbarrow! j This one is rather loose! MADAME DKMOREST'S MIRROR OF FASHION.— We are in receipt of this excellent work on the fashions, and must concede it tho palm for thor oughness and reliability. It Is beautifully gotten up. heinp finally and profusely embellished with | colored plates of the fashions, in the best style ; of engraving. Madame Demorcst's patterns, accompanying the hook, form a novo!, hut very important and useful feature of the work. If oar fair readers desire a good fashion book, let j them send nt once for "Demorest's Miror." | HOWARD HOUSE, BAI.TIMOBE. —This well; known and popular hotel has passed into the 1 hands of Cot.. W. G. REAMER, under whose proprietorship it will be greatly improved in many important particulars. We hope that such of our friends as may visit Baltimore, will do themselves the favor of stopping at the How ard. ijy Whenever you hear of Abolition talk from the Army, depend on it that it comes from some fellow who expects promotion or who is feath ering his nest by tickling the political prejudi ces of the War Department. There are plen ty of miserable creatures in the army (as well as elsewhere) who would sell every principle they ever had (an l lbcn would not part, with much) for a few hundred dollars in greenbacks. Wo admire and love the honest, straight-forward soldier who does his duty because he thinks it is done for the good of his country; hut we have quite a different opinion of the fellow who writes borne that he believes in exterminating the peo ple of tho South, men, women Hnd children, and adds r postscript stating that he has been pro moted to some petty little office. SO"The House of Depresontatives at Ilarris burg has passed a hill to prevent tho immigra tion of negroes into this state. The same body has also passed resolutions protesting against the tyrannical and unconstitutional acts of the President of the United States. Of course neither of these movements will go through the Abolitioniz.'d Senate. The people of Pennsyl vania will regenerate that branch of the legis lature at the next election. icj-Our old friend E. M. Fisher, familiarly known as "Cheap John," is about to establish a general variety and shoo store, in the room recently occupied by J. D. Magill, and former ly used as a store room by Sam'l. Drown, deo.'d. Wo have no doubt that Mr. Fisher's store will be quite ttn addition to the merchandising business of our place and hope that he will re ceive his share of public patronage. We have received several numbers of the new Democrat ic Morning daily, just started in Phil -adeiphia by A. J. Gloasbrenner & Co., entitled "The Age." It is edited with much ability and is neatly and tastefully printed. We doubt not thai "The Age" will prove a valuable ao oeasion to tho newspaper press of the country (3?A oorruptionfund of v50,(£00 has been raised ip Et w Yoik, to • ro't k tie Abolition s-is •" CO' ' (' sr.-fGkcut HTWe have received from John Fulton, Esq., the able Engineer of the If. & B.

J Mr. Meyers:— I happened, by accident, one day last week, to obtain a copy of that precious illumin ator of the "political horizon," yclept the Bed ford Inquirer. After perusing a letter contain ed in said paper, purporting to have been writ- 1 ten at "Camp Humphreys, near Falmouth,Va.," and filled with two columns of stuff and venom, 1 came to the conclusion that "John Smith"— although known all over the universe—was no longnc the great man of tho great Smith family j for the name of the writer of that letter is Al bert Smith, and he, surely, must be the great man of all the. Smiths. Why, doesn't he look down with lofty disdain on Geo. B. McClellan and call him "Chutfy Macf" And doesn't be call Democrats "Copperheads," and glorify the nigger and besmear Abe Lincoln with praise I And isn't that enough to make a great man of any body! But we here in the valley know Al bert Smith to be a great man. lie always was I a great liar, a great slandorcr, a great reporter of untruths for the Bedford Inquirer, a great know nothing, a great nigger-lover, a great "blow horn'' generally, and now, I doubt not, he is a great soldier, though some of his enemies do say that he "skulked" on a ecrtain occasion when it was more for his bodily comfort to do so than to do what be ought to have done. Of course, Albert doeßn't get any pay for his fighting. Great men light only for glory ami for their c quals—tiie niggers. As Albert is a great man, of course ho considers you, Mr. Editor, only "a thing." I quote from his letter: "Citizens of Bedford county, he careful how you handle 'that thing' in the 'Tory office,' which is a legislator in embryo. It will ruin your reputation as a people, destroy your liberties and disgrace your state. For God's sake keep all such characters out of our legislative coun cils. Surely the boasted Democracy of Bedford county has not 1 become so degenerate as to de grade themselves and the party they represent by taking such men as their standard hearers— men who are, dripping with rotten stench of treason —men whose every act has been in sup port pf treason at home and abroad." There j*f>u have it, Mr. Editor! Gen. Mc- Clellan is "Chuff? Mac," you arc "a thing" and Albert Smith is a great man! I do hope, Mr. Editor, that you will not decline being a can cidate, merely to alleviate Albert's anxiety for the "boasted Democracy." True, ho has al ways been very anxious about the fate of that party, being one of the corporal's guard in this township, who have prayed for v ears to sec its end, hut -till my dear sir, we can't always, do every thing to please our friends. So you just stay on the track, let hypocrites howl on, and keep an eye single to Democracy and we'll show Albert Smith when the timo comes, how much we'll take his advice or that of any other hare-brained Abolitionist. Yours, EYE-OPENER. Bebel Acoount. LAKE CITY, Kin., Murch 10.—The Federal gunboats and two transports name up the St. Johns river to Jacksonville this morning, and landed a force of negro troops, throwing out pickets as far as the brick yard a mile and a half.
