*1 "big crow." —The Abolition organ crows
most lustily over the tesult of the late election
in this borough, and ascribes the defeat of a
few of the Democratic nominees to the opera
tion ol the Kansas question. It is nepdless to
say that that question was no more thought of
by the voters at that election than the man in
the moon. We have Heard of but one district
ia the county where it was made an issue and
that was Napier township, where the whole
Democratic ticket was elected by a larger ma
jority than that given for our candidates last
Fall. The questions which were passed upon at
our late borough election, were purely local.
The subject of building a
absorbed every thing else on the arenaol the
contest. In fact, certain Democrats were so
profoundly interested in this School question
that they allowed certain Abolitionists who
pretended to be on their side of that question, to
draw the wool over their eyes so completely cs
to persuade them that if they (the Demo
crats.) would vote the Abolition-Ivnow-Notliing
ticket they (the Abolitionists) would vote lbr
the candidates for School Directors which they
(the Democrats) desired to have elected. These
Democrats, eight in number, "sold their birth
rights for a mess of pottage" and were cheated
out of tile -'pollage," into the bargain. The
Abolitionists - who persuaded them to vote their
ticket, when they found that they had secured
their victims, faced about, and labored with all
their might to defeat the candidates for School
Directors they had bargained to support. Let
those Democrats remember hereafter, that to
trust to the honesty, or magnanimity of their
political opponents, in election matters, is to
nand them a club wherewith to knock out their
brains. That's so!— The only wonder is, that
under the circumstances, any of the Democratic
nominees were elected. There wore eighteen
Do.notiats absent from tin* polls who voted in
this Borough la.'. Fa!!, and eighteen, it will be
remembered, was Packer's majority over Wil
li, .t and ilazieiiuist combined. Tims, the fall
i g . if in tiie Democratic vole, is easily account
ed lor, and it is shown that v)i must have gain
ed votes'since Inst October, or our whole ticket
would inevitably have been defeated. The
u hole vote of the combined opposition was poll
ed and it was the same precisely {one hundred
sal jive) which was cast last Fall for U ilmot
and HazU hurst. So Unit they have not gained
a single vote since Ihe last diction, even con
ceding to them the right Demon ats who voted
with them on the School bargain. The twelve
Democrats who were at home on election day
and were able to go to the polls, but did not, can
lav the very "haltering unction to their souls,"
that if they had done their only, the insulting
language which the Abolition organ applies to
tie Democratic candidates who were defeated,
would never have been written. Let tills be a
\vd. a tag to lhriu, hereafter, lo act as Deu o
ats should act —to turn out to the polls on all
occasions, when life and health wiil permit—.'or
ifour opponents succeed in electing any ot their
c mdidates, even though it be only a fcnce-in
, pettor, they shout ami crow and try to make
capital of it against the Democracy.
As to the contemptible flings made at the
Democratic candidates for High Constable and
Assessor in the last issue of the Abolition organ,
■those gerrtlemen authorize ucto say that they
would iat her be slandered, than praised, in the
columns of that sheet. MESSES. ADAMS and
MOWER rightly conceive that it is honorable to
.be a "tiuilor" to a party which is in the lead
m<v strings of a band ol traitors to their coun
try.
.J Goal Joke. —The Abolitionist* th<* iast

[From tfie Genius of Liberty, Uuicntown, Pa.]
Weslley Frost, the Democratic Candidate
fur ( anal Cowtuissleuer.
A SADDLER BY TRADE, A DEMOCRAT BY
NATURE.
Our county has been honored by the recent
Democratic State Convention in the nomination
of one of her most worthy citizens for the im
portant oliice of Canal Commissioner. As a
public man, West ley Frost is somewhat known
to the people of the Commonwealth; and we
propose to give a very brief sketch of his pri
vate life and character. Like most ot the lead
ing men of the age he arose from the humblest
walks of life. In his youthful days there was
no boy on the plav-grounds who could say with
truth that he was poorer in this world's good-,
than West ley Frost. At an early age be was
bound by indentures to the saddling business. —
In bis intercourse with his companions and his
deportment to hisemplover he gave promise of
those sterling qualities of head and heart which
in after years commended the man to the con
fidence and esteem of his fellow cilizens. So
correct was he in his depottment and so true to
the instincts of his nature that even in his boy
hood days "his word was considered as good as
his bond with approved security." He served
bis time faithfully and honestly agreeably to his
indentures until corning of age; when according
to the custom he received his "freedom suit"
accompanied by the kindest and best vv isle s uf
bis employer and ali his household. Of indus
trious habits he immidiatt ly upon being treed
from his indentures commenced work as a
journeyman, and by lrugility and economy saved
from his earnings a comfortable maintenance.
Ambitious aiid energetic hesoon set up business
for himself, lie applied himself industrious)v
and attentively to cariying on bis trade; and as
tie grew in age he grew also in the confidence
and affections ot his neighbors. Trained iu the
school of adversity, his political sentiments
were very naturally those ot the Democratic
part}', am! he adhered to them with all the te
nacity of his naUiie. Having made himself
known to the people of his count v fry his dis
creet and efficient support of Democratic prin
ciples and usages, he was nominated by his
party in the stirring times ol ISi-t- lor Ihe oliice
of sheriff. He was Iriumphantly eh-ctcd over
the candidate of the whig party, who was a
brother-in-law, ami one of Ihe most popular
men in the opposition ranks. As sheriff of hi>
county no man ever left a Letter record than
West lev Fro-t. I pon ret iring'from the office of
Sheriff lie returned to his home in Brownsvilh ,
resumed work at his trade, devoting when occa
sion iequir-d it, a portion of his time and atten
tion to the success of tiis party, until the Spring
of 1552, when he was appointed by President
Pierce, Marshal ot the Western District of
Pennsylvania. Here [is abilities were called
into a more extended fit-Id, ami he proved him
self fully equal to tile i.igli duties devolved up
on him. it was in this office that he came in
contact with his fell iw citizens of different
sections of the State, and bv his com tesy, affa
bility (TuJ dignified deportment made himself a
State popularity.
As Marshal o( the Western District he was
ali that could be expected of a public officer
in the discharge of his duties, and courteous
and dignified in his intercourse with his fellow
citizens. He held this office four years, and at
the expiration of his commission letuimd to
Brownsville, and agoiu resumed work at his
trade. Indeed while Marshal of the District, it
was not an uncommon thiiiir to see him at work
in his shop: for at intervals of telief from his
public duties be invariably put on his apron
and went to work at his trade. H- is at this
time engaged at his trade in Brownsville, under
the old sign of "Westlev Fiost, Saddle and Har
ness Maker," and when his friends call to see
him, they are kindly received in his shop, w here
they find him with his coat off and apron on
as intently and industriously engaged in wor
king at his trade as he was in the earlier and
less fortunate days of his life. In addition In
being an indnstrious mechanic, West ley Frost
is a high minded honorable gentleman, and no
man standshigher than lie does in'the pslimation
of his fellow citizens of ali parties. IPs nomina
tion tor Canal Commissioner was a compliment
worthily bestowed, and will be responded to at
the polls by the people ot the South Western
counties, in the most emphatic terms ol appro
bation.

WHAT SORT OF AN ANIMAL A "Sxon" is.—
Thackeray thus daguerreotypes this animal.—
We warn our readers against considering this
picl tn eas personal. Thackeray is speaking of
English soci' Y fy :
"A snob is a man or woman who are always
pretending before the world to be something
belter—especially richer or more fashionable—
than they are. It is one who thinks his own
position in life contemptible, and is always
yearning and striving lo force himself above,
with the education of characteristics which be
long to it—one who looks down upon, despises
and overrides his inferiors, or even equals o!
his own standing, and is ever ready to w rrship,
fawn upon and flatter a rich or titled man, not
because tie is a good man, a wise man, or a
Christian man: but because he has the luck to
be rich or consequential."

recently sunk, about thiity-six miles above New

that she will be floated in the cour-e of a day or

Persons living at a distance should he extremely
cautious of whom they order Lottery 1 iekets or Cer
tificates of packages of Tickets. The countiy is
flooded with Irogus and swindling Lotteries. Every
inducement is held out to get persons to invest mon
ey in them. Capital Prizes of from $-0,000 to $ 10,-
000 head their schemes —with Tickets at One Dollar.
$100,01)0 Capital Prizes are offered, tickets $5. All
such, in every instance, are frauds: if money is sent
lor tickets, it is-o much thrown away without the
shadow of a chance of get'ing a prize. Beware nl
all Lotteries where the Capital Prize is unusually
large in comparison to the price of tickets. In eve
ry instance where large prizes are offered lor a small
cost of tickets, put it down as a certain fraud.
The Kentucky State Lottery for the benefit of the
