THE "AMERICAN" PARTY.
Reader, put on your retrospective glasses,
and look back with us to that memorable era
in the politics of our country, when the old
Whig party laydn the throes ol dissolution, and
when upon the ruins of that party, was up
reared that famous ami infamous organization
which struck at freedom of conscience, freedom
of speech and the civil and political rights of a
large and honorable class ol American citizens.
Look back to the years 1854 and IS.k>, and
Uiiua .h.i lj muHilfl
say the "AMERICAN" party, and you say
truly. And who were the leaders of that par
ty in Bedford county ? who the men that coun
selled and advised the good people of this region
to connect themselves with it ? You say
FRANCIS JORDAN was one of them, and
again you say truly. You remember ii 13
speeches in favor of the doctrines of American
ism—harangue after harangue ; you remember
his long-winded, gaseous editorials setting forth
that "Americans must rule America." Ave,
Francis Jordan was one of the earliest as well
as one of the most active propagators ol "Amer
icanism." And now look forward to J85(1.—
Behold our friend, the aforesaid Francis, play
ing into the hands of the "Republican" Aboli
tionists, assisting in the attempt to carry Penn
sylvania for Fremont,and secretly plotting with
other treacherous "Americans" to sell out his
quondam party for the benefit of his new poli
tical love. And then bring down your review
to the present time. You find the "American" i
organization almost extinct. You find that
once proud party, in whose cause Mr. Jordan
went about proselyting, (himselfassured of its
eternal permanence and assuring olhefs of its
indubitable imperishability) lying low in the
dust. Scoffed at, spit upon, kicked and cuffed
by the very men who once travelled about the
country singing peans in his praise—"SAM"
—poor "SAM"—unfortunate, bptrayed, deser
ted "SAM" is an outcast and a beggar a
mong his own followers. He
Finds not a generous friend, a j.itving foe,
Strength in his arm, nor mercy in his woe.
Yes, the men who in, 1554- and 1855, told the
people that "Americans MUST rule America,"
and that the only salvation lor our country was
in the success of the "American" organization,
now laugh in derisive triumph, when they
hear of "American" failures and the breaking
down of "American" Conventions. Franci3
Jordan's Abolition organ now publishes with
great gusto disparaging accounts ol "American"
movements, and in its last issue save, with chil
dish glee, that the recent "American" Slate
Convention was the "GREATEST FIZZLE
OF THE DAY !" Who would have thought
a few years ago, that the great "American"
parly would come so soon to this complexion 7
And who will dare say now, that the great
"People's" party will not meet the same fate be
fore another lustrum shall have passed away ? i
don't forget the delegate
elections on next Saturday week. Let there
be a full attendance, and good men and sound
Democrats chosen as delegates. The election
of Vigilance Committees should also be atten
ded to without tail. Keep up thp organiza
tion and ail will be well.
PARADE AT BLOODY HI X.
Monday hsl wa3 a gala day in Bloody Kun.
There the '-beauty and chivalry" of Bedford
countv, "had gathered then," and the hot
June sun shone brightly "o'er lair women and
brave men." It was the occasion of the
Regimental Parade of "the first Regiment of
the first Brigade and 1 Gth Division of the
Uniformed Militia of Pennsylvania." Although
not in the least militarily inclined, we could
not resist the temptation to go and see the war
like display- So, seated in a comfortable hack,
in company with a few friends, we started
for the "scene of action." Arrived at Bloody
Run, we found that place crowded with soldiers
and spectators, the bonnie lasses of the neighbor
ing country making up a goodly portion of
the latter. After making the circuit of the
village several times and shaking' hands with
manv of our old friends, we sat down to dinner
at Maj. Morgarl's, and helped to bring about the
specdv disappearance of as good a meal as you
will find anywhere within a hundred miles of
Bedford. We also looked in at Sleckman's,
Gump's and Dibert's, and found everything
quite comme il faut. (*lnglice, "jam up.")
After dinner we took another long, lingering
look at the military, and then concluded to wend
our way back to the ancient village of Bedford,
which we did, satisfied that there are worse
places than Bloody Run and less pleasant trips
than the one we were about bringing to a close.
There were four companies in attendance
at this parade, the Cumberland Valley Blues,
Capt. Haney : Bedford Riflemen, Cap. Sansom ;
Independent Blues, Capt. States ; and the
Hopewell Riflemen, Capt. Horton. All these
companies (so far as our knowledge of military
tactics warrants us in giving an opinion) are
well drilled and made throughout quite a
creditable appearance. The Regiment was
under the command of Col. Lowry and was
put through the drill by Capt. Sansom. Bri
gade Inspector Evans was also present and
engaged in the performance of the duties
pertaining to his office.
We have not been able to ascertain the result
of the election for Brigade and Regimental
officers, but it is presumed that it is as follows :
BRIGADIER GENERAL, Lemuel Evans.
BRIGADE INSPECTOR, A. J. Sansom.
COLONEL, Alex. Compher.
LIECT. COLONEL, S. B. Tate.
MAJOR, B. F. Horn.
VIRGINIA ELECTION.
In our last issue the majority for LETCHER, ;
the Democratic candidate for Governor of Vir- j
2:inia, was set down at 3000. We have not,
a >
as yet, been able to ascertain the exact result,
but the latest accounts put LETCHER'S majority
at 6000, or upwards. The Congressional dele
gation stands 12 Democrats to 1 Opposition,
Chas. J. Faulkner, Old Line Whig, supported j
by the Democrats, having been defeated by
Alex. R. Boteler, American. V irginia, ''the j
| mother erf states and of statesmen,'" stands firmly ,
by the Democratic flag. She 'l9 the break^ia^
♦s-,V.,.r-the bat-1. -ground on siiich the enemies 1
| of the National Democracy, found their YVater
i 100 in '55 and where they have just experien- i
j ced their initial disaster in the struggle about j
j beginning for the Presidency. Virginia stemmed
j, the torrent of Know Nothingism and made her
j relf the rallying point for the National Dernoc
j racy, at the opening of the last Presidential
| campaign, and now she has risen once more,
the first star that illumines the political sky,
the first ray of Democratic light that chases;
j the gloom of sectionalism from the horizon of
politics. Her victory over Know Nothingism
in '55, was followed by triumph after triumph,
on the Democratic side, until the success of our
party culminated in the glorious termination of
! the contest for President. Is it not fairly in
ferable that such will be the case again?
A DENIAL.— Air. Jordan denies in his organ
of last week, that Horace Greeley, the editor
of the Tribune , used the language imputed to
him in our is3ue of week before fast. We re
iterate that Mr. Greeley did use that lan
guage, and if Mr. Jordan will bring us the files
of the Tribune for the last year, we will obli
gate ourselves to show it to him. Greeley's
stigma upon the laboring classes is verbatim as
follows :
"A considerable part of the white population
(of Hayti at the time of the abolition of slavery
in that country,) were petit blnncs, so called,
little whites, the same with the POOR
WillTfi TRASH of our Southern Stales, with
out education or property, but exceedingly te
nacious, like OUR POOR WHITE TRASH
NORTH and South, of a distinction which ena
bled them to take .rank of the most accomplished
and wealthy MEN OF COLOR."
Again we call upon the honest,
yeomanry of Bedford county, to bear in mind
these bitter words of the haughty aristocrat that
edits the Tribune. Shall such a calumniator of
white freemen, receive any countenance, or
support front the people of this county ?
Opposition to the Democracy in
Virginia, were so confident ol the election of
their candidate lor Governor, Mr. Goggin, that
they gave liiin an ovation at which hp was
addressed as "GOVERNOR GOGGIN," and the
Richmond Whig closed its report as follows :
"At the depot, Gov. Goggin parted Irom
his friends, but told them in tones of confidence,
that he expected to be elected, and would
therelore meet them all again on the first of
January next, when he would come to Rich
mond to be installed in office."
That was "counting chickens before they
were hatched." Eh ?
(TT-WM. M. HALL, Esq., has resumed the
practice of the law in this place. Mr. Hall's
legal abilities are well known, and he will
doubtless soon regain his former practice.
SFVFPE FROST. — On Saturday night last, aj
severe frost visited this neighborhood, making
dreadful havoc among the vegetables. It was
at first supposed that it had injured the grain,
but we learn that it did but little damage to
that ciop. We notice telegraphic reports from
Notthern Ohio and trom New York, stating
that on the same night the fruit and grain were j
severely frozen in those sections. It seems j
that this frost was general all over the j
Northern and Middle States.
SOMERSET COUNTY DEMOCRACY. —We notice
by the last Democrat, that the Democracy of
Somerset are re-organizing for the coming cam
paign, and that they have appointed an influ
ential and active County Committee, ot which
our old friend and fellow student, LEWIS LICH
TY, ESQ., is Chairman. Air. LICIITY is an able
man, and under his direction the Somerset De
mocracy will, doubtless, gain renewed and las
ting vigor.
(LF"The Bedford Riflemen, at their election
on Monday last, chose the following olficers :
CAPTAIN, Thos. H. Lyons.
IST LIEUT., Win. KeefFe.
2d do W. P. Mower.
The officers are all "good looking" and will

Sir. Hucltauairs Administration.
The Detroit Free Press of the 19th ult.,
contains a well-written and comprehensive re
view of the policy and measures of President
Buchanan's Administration, showing that they
are entitled to the applause and approval of
the democratic party ol the Union, and sum
ming them up as follows :
1. The Administration has produced a set
tlement of the Kansas question and established
perfect order in that long-distracted Territo
ry.
2. It has put an end to the filibustering
expeditions of Walker &, Co.
3. It has put an end to the rebellion in TJ
tah, and established order and peace in that
Territory. ———
*iiosTne Tnjiati's with redoubled force in Wag
ing ton Territory, and compelled them to sue
I lor peace on its own terms,
j 5. It has done the same in Oregon, and
forced the Indians to relinquish hostilities and
; sue lor peace.
i (5. Jt has done the same in the war with the
i Indians in New Mexico, and in like manner
I compelled Ihem to sue lor peace.
7. It has made a new and highly advanta
■ geous commercial treaty with China.
8. It has made a new and advantageous
| treaty with Japan.
| 9. It has obtained a most important diplo
; matic victory over England by extorting from
| her an abandonment of the long-assumed right
j to search American vessels.
10. It has established an overland mail to
Caliiornia and the Pacific coast.
IJ. It has admitted two new free Stales in
to the Union, and thus secured a large exten
sion ol the field lor "free labor."
1~. it has sent a naval expedition to
Paraguay, and obtained an apology lor insults
to the American Hag, indemnity for injuries
received, and giants of new commercial
privileges and rights of navigation.
13. It has paid oil'more than nine millions
ol the public debt, at a time of pressure in the
money market and general embarrassment in
the business of the country that is without a
parallel in our history.
14. It has reduced the expenses of the
government Irom eighty one millions to less
than seventy millions, and will soon have
them graduated to a scale ol about fifty millions.
15. It is engaged in the negotiation of a
trealy with England for the settlement of the
difficulties-and disputes that have arisen under
the Clayton Bulwer treaty, with every pros
pect of success.
16. It is engaged in the negotiation ola
treaty with Nicaragua for the right of transit
of American citizens and property across the
isthmus and the payment of American claims,
with encouraging p-ospects of success.
Such is the record. Now why is not this
an Administration that the whole Democratic
party of the Union can rally around and i
sustain and encourage ?

this county to the Democrats, and the next

Some months ago, an amendment was proposed
to the constitution of that state, excluding
foreign-born citizens from the polls, for two
years after their naturalization. This amend
ment has just been carried. Every Democrat
ic paper in Massachusetts opposed it. Every
Republican paper either supported it, or feared
to condemn it. Mssachusetts will hereafter
