The Abolition-Amaigamation-Know-Noth ing candidate for Associate Judge, refuses to answer the question® put io him in opr paper oi week before last. He dares not reply to them. He has so many interests to conciliate—so ma ny sharp corners to turn—that it is not at all agreeable to him to meet those queries frankly and boldly. In order to round the maoy rough headlands in the cours" of his political voyage, he must dodge—dodge dodge 1 A while he is in the Abolition boat, sailing along socially with the negro-lovers—presto, he is in the Know Nothing craft, working its oars most dex terously—anon, he jumps on botrd the Demo cratic ship and makes love is the most tender style to those terrible "lyicofoco®,'* whom he always despises most cordially except ivfaen he K a candidate for office. But dodging won't do, Mr. Taylor. The people want to know your answers to these questions : Mr. Taylor, did you not, in 1837. vote for DAVID WILMOT, lor Governor, who was' supported by the abolitionists of Pennsylvania 1 for that office, and did you not refuse to sup- j port ISAAC HAZELHORST, the Straight J cm, anti-abolition candidate of your party ? Did vou not vote, last fall, lor JOHN M. RE A D, the candidate for Supreme Judge of this j State, supported by the Abolitionists ? Would you not vote ior WM. H. SEWARD, tf nominated by your party lor President, the man who recently declared that there isan "ir repressible conflict between freedom and slave ry, *' which will never cease til! the cotton and rice-fields of the South shall be cultivated by (ree labor, or th rve and wheat fields of the North by slave labor ? Will vou not vote for GEO. W. W iciutts, the model Aholitbn-Amalgarnationist, who vo ted against the Rill to prevent the intermarriage of whites and blacks ? Lastly, as you are still a sworn Know Noth ing, never having renounced your oath, would you not be compelled to vote for Gerrif Smith, \V Lloyd Garrircn, or any avowed and una dulterated Abolitionist, it nominated by your jarty ' WHY IT YVAS DONE. The nomination o! AIR. JOHN 1 \XI.OR; I for Associate Judge, was made by the Know i Nothing Abolition wire-workers, for the j presj purpose of entrapping such Democrats >'s \ '■ from i heir personal mul family connexion with .Mr. Taylor, would be inclined to rote for him. He was nominated, not because of any respect ' for his talents, or his worth as a citizen, but be cause the aloresaid wire-workers supposed that ome of Mr. Taylor's relative*, who are among the best Democrats in the county, would be induced to deert their party and vote for their cousin or their brother-in-law. His nomina tion is i trap set expressly for .Mr. Taylor's , Democratic relatives. We have laid bare the pit-fill ; should any one linn in it, it will not br- without a poper warn ! "WORSE THAN A YLNKEE." ! MR. JORDAN says we are worse than a Yan ' kee, because when he asks is* a question, we answer him by asking him half a dozen in turn. We can say nothing in extenuation of this sad ! habit of ours, except that Mr. Jordan's political history is of such a questionable nature that we can't resist the temptation of pu'ting a few in ■ terrngatories to him, now and then. Will Mr. i Jordan answer this question : i Did the truth sutler more at your hands,' Mr. ■ Jordan, when you said in 1555 that Simon Cameron was a u slimy poli'.ician. who never ■ accomplished an honorable achievement in poll 'tics for when you prirlaimer 1 , a few days ago, , (bat he "reus ALWAYS the able and zealous ■ advocate of the. great interests of Pennsylvania < j which he so vo'.H understands ?" IS he" an abortionist ? MR. SAMUEL J. WAY, who is a candi date tor the office of County Treasurer, was busiiy employed during the last summer, in get -4 ting subscribers to the .V. Y. Tribune, an Abo i lition newspaper of the rankest sort, whose ed , : itor has proclaimed that " rather than tolerate j national slavery as it note exists, let the Union ; , be dissolved at once, and then (he sin of slave ry will r"si where it belongs," and whose cor i respondent, JAMES REDPATH, has sai i of j Southern slave-dealers, u Drive them into the j sea us Christ once drove the swine." After Mr 1 Way's "Ivorts to sow broadcast such heresies as j these, we presume few persons will hive the | hardihood to deny that he is an Abolition-; !• A SHAMELESS FALSEHOOD. ! We are informed that some of f tie scavengers j ofth? Abolition-Amalgamation-Know-Nclhing ! People's party, are circulating the story | that JOHN KEMERY, the Democratic candi j date for Director of the Poor, is a foreigner by j birth. This is a deliberate, wanton falsehood. ■ Mr. Kemery is an American bv birth. N>verthe- | j iess, we hold that if he had been born in i | Germany, or any other foreign [land, he would | I not be a whit the worse for if, either as a man, | or, a citizen. [Cr"The piebald Opposition—the rednubta ' ble "ring-streaked and striped''—are trying to j make capital against GEN. COFFROTH by • representing that he is a Forney man. This is 'untrue and unfair. Gen. Co.Troth sym j patbfsed with Foiney in his efforts to distract ! and divide the Democracy. He refused, to our 1 own certain knowledge , to sign the ca!i for For- I nev's Bogus Convention,and lasi Fail he labor j ed hard for the success of the Democratic tick ' et in Somerset county. The harmonious "speck ; led and spotted'' had better let Gen. Cofi'rotb alone, and tell us which of their candidates tor , the Legislature they intend to drop, Amalgams j tion Williams, or anti- Amalgamation Walker. i Lccal and Miscellaneous. - A PRACTICAL r?IA"E OF TUB NEGRO QUES TION.— A WHITS MAN ASSAULTED WITH KNIVES AND CLUBS BY NEGBOEJ GKEAT EXCITEMENT ! On. Saturday night last, as Mr. Geo. Meioy, a young man living with Mr. Steckman, of this place, was sitting in front of the "Mengel House," he was assaulted by a gang of negroes who, it seems, were armed with knives and clubs. A hand-to-hand struggle ensued and in the melee, young Meloy received a severe cut from some sharp instrument in the hands of one of the negioes. The alarm being given, a considerable number of citizens collected to gether and succeeded in capturing the darkies, and lodging them in jail. On Monday they came up tor their hearing before Esq. Radebaugh when some half dozen of them were bound over. This affair has caused much excitement among our citizens. —Tire Union Church, near the house of SAM UEL M.

I have concluded to commence the surveys for the Map of Bedford Co., and as I will have to ask a good many questions as I pas? along, I have to request that the desired information be cheerfully given, otherwise mistakes might bc cur which would be unpl asant to me and to those who get the maps. 1a m desirous ot making a work which may c afeiy be referred to, to ascer tain the proper spelling of names in particular and on this subject, I wish to say that 1 consid er very many names mispeiled in this county, (as well as elsewhere) but in ail cases I will spell each man's name as he spells it himself, il tie will be pleased to tell me how he spells it. Otherwise I will use my own stanbard and will iet each onejuuge for himself whether it is good, or not, after the man is completed. There may be many things worthy of note, such as minerals of different kinds, springs, icc., which*' I might pass without noticing. I therefore re quest a'l who f->el any interest in a good Map ofthe County to not neglect those small mat ters as I pass along, but have th-m brought to light. 1 wish to be allowed hre to say that many Mans are gotten up which only show the busi- ; ness and properties of those who subscribe and others are left blank, as for instance the Map of 1 Bedford Borough. Several County Maps in this j S'ate were gotten up on the same principle, ! which were sold at six or seven dollars. But it is my desire to make a map for general ref erence. I shall, however, give mv subscriber-: a special notice, as is customary in getting up the City Directories. I have not yet the desired number of subscribers, but having confidence that I will yet he encouraged, I have conclu ded to go on with the work. EDWARD L. WALKER. DEMOCRATIC VIGILANCE COMMITTEES.

Tu the above-named committees, chosen by the direct vote oi'the Democracy of the county, the organizationalthe party in ttie several town ships nnci boroughs, is entrusted. It is their du ty to see that voters are properly assessed, that harmony and good l-eiing prevail among Demo crats, that the candidates of the party are not secretly injured by their political or their per sona! enemies, that the whole Democratic vote 01 their respective districts is brought to the [mils, and that the interests of the party gen erally are attended to in a proper manner. These Committees are all composed of good men am) we, therefore, confidently expect that they will render great service to the Democracy between this and the election. One vote- The importance ot one vote is rarely made more manifest than it was in the recent elec tions in Kentucky and Tennessee. One oppo sition candidate for Congress, in the former State, was elected by three votes, and in another district the vote was.a tie. f.n the latter State one opposition candidate for Congress was ejec ted by eight votes, another by twenty-six, and another by fifty, in all of these cases there were doubtless Democrats enough remained at home to have turned the scale in favor of the Democratic nominees, had they gone to the election Snd deposited their ballots, as it was their dirty to have done. We Lope that Demo crats will bear these instances in mind, t.his fall, in this county and State, and not under-estimate the importance ot one vote in determining the result of the eiectiun. The Baltimore Reform Meetinc. The tovn meeting, held the other day in Bal timore, for the purpose ot devising means to rescue that city "from its prpsent deplo-able condition," was attended by imposing numbers of respectable people from all parties. The crowd which was assembled in Monument Square is estimated at some 10.000. The res olutions which were passed, and speeches made on the occasion reveal a state of affairs in that unfortunate community that is pertectly horri ble, and calling for the most determined action on the part of all well disposed citizens. They must not relax in their efforts. The eyes ol the country, whose sympathies are with their cause, are upon them. If thev should fail /tow, (he evil consequences flowing from such failure would not be confined to Baltimore alone. It would encourage the elements of rowdyism and bloody ana'chv elsewhere : but for BaltimoiP. it would result in utter ruin, were the present authorities allowed to continue in power another term. What has become, under their blighting rule, ofthe rights guaranteed bv the Constitution of this "land of the free" to every citizen, may be inferred from the following graphic description, bv one ot the orators of the town meeting, of the manner in which elections are managed and carried in Baltimore. "A referen e to the. political proceedings of the past few weeks will illustrate what I mean. An important election is coming on, which will determine the character of our city Govern ment for the next year. Candidates were to be nofiiinated, and it has been done. But how was it accomplished ? Instead of an orderly as lembly of peaceable citizens to select the :>est men for important offices, we have gepn a mus tering all over the city of political clubs, whose vile purposes are best indicated by the vile names which they asump. These were the active and efficient instruments in the nomina tions. Plus Uglies, Blood Tubs, Black Snakes and Tigers are some of the names in hich these people rejoice and bv which they characterized themselves. The vilest reptiles and most sav age beasts in tr.e judgment of these men of the club, form their most appropriate designations and fittest emblems. These clubs comprise the j individuals who sepk to control and often do j control the primary meetings of the people, j Their services are to ne had by those who pay i highest or intrigue most successfully, and they ! ! accomplish their work bv fraud and violence, with knife and pistol, the cowardly slung-shof and iron knuckle. They have indeed come to be a recognized element in the political canvass, and even honorable gentlemen are not ashamed to seek for and accept nominations from such unclean bands." The effect of the disorderly government of the city upon her reputation abroad, her trade and material interests, is described by another as follows: "As a merchant f must tell you how it has af fected the trade and commerce of our city. Last winter t made a trip to our Western country : 1 visited many parts of Ohio, Indiana. Illinois, Missouri and lowa. I called to see many ai-r --j chants in those States, and invited them to com" ; to Baltimore arid deal with us, and I am pain-d !to tell you th"ir answer. We us--d to deal in ; Baltimore, said some of them—we would lik to deai in Baltimore, said others, but we can do just as well in Philadelphia and New York, and we do not wish to incur the risk nfgoing to Baltimore. Your laws and authorities are pow erless against the banded outlaws of your city, anil we are afraid to come there. Every now and then we receive a remittance from some country merchant about t*he time we are expecting him to come to Baltimore and ; hnv his goods, making the announcement thxe- J with that he will not come to Baltimore this season, but will go east bv the northern rout". We aik for no explanation—we all under stand it. Many of those who do come here make their calculations when they Lave home to arrive here in the morning, so that they can make a few special purchases in Baltimore, and leave again in the evening train fur Philadelphia. It was only last week that a merchant made such a visit to Baltimore. Nothing conld in duce him to spend the night here, as he said he had already violated the promise he had made to his wife when he left home, which was thai he would not come to Baltimore at all. Another in tanceoccurred in the case of one of mv own customer® from a neighboring city, lie came here to purchase goods, and finding that he could not complete all his purchases ia a day, returned home by the evening tram, and came back again the next morning. Aral the evil reputation ot Baltimore is not confined to the western hemisphere. I crossed the ocean a short time since upon a business mission. I visited a remote town in England to make a purchase. The manufacturer with whom 1 was dealing had never seen me before. He was an humble man, and I had no reason to think that he had ever heard of Baltimore. He inquired what market in the United States I bought for. I told him 1 bought for Baltimore. Baltimore! said he, with a sudden impulse: why, that's the place v.'here the rowdies shoot people down in the street." These remarks need no comment—they speak for themselves. Numerous as ttie meeting was, the auda ciiy of the row dies was such as to appear in force and attempt to disturb its proceedings- But the ringleaders were promptly arrested this tune. We trust that the right cause will conquer, and that the reform movement vvill be success ful. The power is in the hands ol the respect able classes of the community. It is their boun der), sacred duty to assert i , and, if n- ed be, to make an example that will strike terror into the souls of the evil disposed.— Pennsylomiun. ■'Ptif? the Repttblifati Parly Propose to Interfere with Slavery iuthe Stales!"
