A PROPHECY-
The candidate of the sectional and factional
Republican party, )has been elected to the
Presidency, and the heart of every true patriot
beats quick with apprehension for the future of
the Republic. How will this man chosen by
a minority of the votes of the Union, chosen
by the enthusiasts and fanatics of'the North. I
preside over the affairs of the whole nation, |
over the interests of the South which utterly j
repudiates his doctrines and his proposed policy,!
and which looks upon him as a deadly and i
implacable enemy to its institutions ' Such is
the question that naturally suggests itself to
every reflecting mind, and it was because this
question was impossible of solution, to those
who compose the conservative class of our citi
zens, that Abraham Lincoln with their opposi-.
tion to his claims as a candidate for the !
Presidency. It is a question that will de
pend for its answer upon circumstances and '
events of which we can have no foreknow- !
ledge, but which will not, we fear be altogeth- j
er within the control of the newly elected
President. The waves of the agitation upon
which he has sailed into power, are lashed to
fury by the storms of Southern excitement.—
The hatred against the South engendered by
his partizans in the breasts of the Northern peo
ple, has enkindled a correspondent enmity in
the fiery and impetuous Southrons, which !
threatens to break out in attempt at secession j
and which may'culminate in a bloody and ex
terminating civil war. In short, Mr. Lincoln, •
in his diatribes against Negro slavery as it ex- I
ists in the Southern States, sown the wind and j
his adminstration, perforce, must reap the
whirlwind. With no guaranty in his past life
for the safety of his policy as the Executive of ;
the Government, is it strange that we feel at a '
loss to conjecture what means he will make use j
of to extricate the country from its
peril ? With no beacon-star gleaming from ; '
his public record to warn the country of danger. (
or to guide the Ship of state into a harbor of <
safety, is it to be wondered at that the people
are anxiously inquiring what will Mr.
Lincoln do to preserve the confederacy. True,
we are referred to his public speeches and to the
Chicago Platform, as the foreshadowing of his
policy. Heaven forbid that he should follow
out the teachings of the latter, or that he should
attempt to enforce the doctrines of the former !
Woe to our Union, woe to American liberty,
and glory, if such such should be his policy !
But we predict that be will not dare to fulfil
the catalogue of enormities prescribed bv his
platform. We predict that he will give the
lie to every speech lie has made on the slavery
question ; that he will enforce the fugitive
Slave Law, sign bills for the admission of new
slave states, and play conservative generally.
If he does this we predict further that the mass
of his party wiil desert hiin, that he will be
effectually Tvlerized, and that he wiii be com
pelled to look to the Democratic partv for
countenance and support.
A GLANCE RETROSPECTIVE.
The October election fully demonstrated the
fact that when the tull vote of Bedford cou.itv
is polled, there is a handsome and decided
majority for the Democrats. The Opposition
had polled almost their entire vote at that elec
tion, and could not have raised fifty more in
the coun'y if they* had taken a drag-net and
fished out every nook and corner from the
Maryland to the Blair county Imp. On 'he
other the Democrats had at least 120 if not
150 votes at home. in Southampton alone
theie were about seventy Jive Democrats that
did not get to the polls, some on account of the
great distance they had to go, but most of them,
because of sickness in their families, the Ty
phoid fever prevailing in 'hat region 10 an alar
ming extent. That election iurther demonstra
ted that disorganizes cannot always gratify
their enmity toward certain candidates, bv
raising their treacherous hands to strike them
down. When there is a full Democratic turn
out, the Democracy fol Bedford county, may
well despise alt such treason as that exhibited i
in the last campaign. The men who attempt 1
it, only put a mark upon themselves of which
they will be ashamed in the luiure and oil
which they tain one day would be clear
The lesson taught, to the vindictive and the
wavering, by the result of the October election
is, Stick to the Democratic Nominees, and vou
will not only be on the winning-side, hut tree
from all suspicion or flame on the pait of your
fellow Democrats.
UTThe Editor being a\cay from home, hir
editorials are this week confined to general top
ics, and he is unable to di/cuss local matters.—
On hia return, he will carve up things herea
bouts to suit tbe taste of the most fastidious of
bis readers.
THANKS.
The Democracy of Bedford county, have just
emerged frorti a political battle in which the
enemy had every advantage except that of prin
ciple. Divided between two leaders the Dem
ocratic column, was rent in twain, whilst the
Opposition was tirrnly united. Through all
this unequal war, |the old "Gazette" pursued
a straightforward cnurse, turning neiither to
the left, and bending neither to fear nor favor.
For this we are fully rewarded, not only by
111" consciousness that we did our duty, but by
the approbation of cur course by the Democra
cy of the county in extending to us a most flat
*.
ering increase of patronage. Our list of regu
' lar subscribers is now larger than it has been
since our connection with the establishment,
and is daily on the increase. We return our
| warmest thanks to the Democracy of the confi
j dence and approval, and hope to be able to de
serve their kindness in the future.
TWELVE YEARS.
1 The Opposition have been "out in the cold"
a long weary time. It is twelve years since
i they elected a candidate for President. In 18-
48, Gen Taylor was elected on the "Rough and
Ready'' cry just as Lincoln has been success
lul of the "Railsplitter." Democrats
can afford to let the Opposition have the Presi
j dent '.his lime, but it Ltncolu does not save us
I the trouble of electing another Preiidenf, we
will unite upon one candidate in 1884, and
i keep them out twelve years longer.

The Result in Pennsylvania.
The majority tor Lincoln in this Slate will
1 probably toot up some 80,000—although no one
cares about (searching for particulars. There
j was a great falling off" in the aggregate vote
• for President, compared with the State election
j when nearly 500,000 votes were polled. We
j would not be surprised if the total vote on the
6th inst. did not exceed 450,000. This falling
nff was principally upon the Democratic side.
The large majoi lly against Foster at the State
election was generally regarded as settling the
i contest as far as Pennsylvania was concerned,
! and hence the apathy and indifference among
Democrats. Ihe mass of the Democratic vote
ot the Stale was cast for the Reading electoral
ticket; but the Straight-out Douglas ticket was
suppuited to a considerable extent by the
Douglas men. As there was no attempt at
Democratic organization after the State election,
and the dissensions in the party made a united
rally impossible, it is not surprising that Lin
coln carried the State by a huge majority.

A louug Lady Murdered by a Slave Wotu
au—The Murderess Caught and Huug!
Reliable intelligence from Fulton, Galloway
: county, Mo., apprises us that a shocking trage
dy occuried within eight miles of that place on
Saturday last. In the house ot a Mr. Barnes
i was a female slave of irascible and dangerous
temper, who had frequently been enraged at
Mr. Barnes' daughter, Susanna J., a young la
dy of some eighteen years of age. Saturday
morning the slave Teney w as sent to work in a
cornfield, and the family set off to attend a '
meeting •.! some kind, leaving .Miss Haines
alone at home. On returning from the meet-'
iog they were horrified to find her shockingly I
beat to death, and the door and walls of the I
dwelling bespattered with blood. The dinner
table had been set evidently by Miss Barnes,
and her knitting work lay disarranged on the
kite.ten floor. The kitchen showed blood and
signs oi a struggle. Blood marks were visible j
along the walls of the east room on the floor
and walls of which was much more blood, and
ihe room exhibited plain traces of a violent
strife. Next the blood vvas traced to the west
room, where the murder had been committed,
and where the corpse was found ljin<r m
gore.
Ihe slave woman called, and found to have
changed her dress since morning. On search
ing,the dress was found in the fieid, hidden and
bloddy. A shovel was found bloody and
battered. When confronted with her bloody
dress, the woman confessed that she had killed
Miss Barnes. She was placed in custody of
Deputy Constable Henry Willing, who rode
ofFin haste for thejaii, at Fulton.
When within three miles of Fulton, he was
overtaken by a party on horses, who took the
prisoner from him, 'ed her to a tree not far off,
and there hanged her till she was dead.
The above information was received by a Ger
man contemporary, from the office of the Ger
man paper published weekly at Fulton.

TF~The apple crop throughon? New England
is an immense one, and has rarely if ever, been
excelled. The fruit,generally is fair, of good
qualify, and so cheap in many localities, that
it will not pay a profit even to steal the best
varieties. The Worcester Transcript savs the
! price ol excellent Baldwins in that city is sev-;
enty-five cents per barrel. Some farmers in i
Worcester county have 500 barrels. In Mid
: dlesex county there are many persons whose
| orchards yield mare than a thousand barrels of
excellent apples. There is a market for them
at the South. At Mobile, a decent apple, it is
, reported, sells for half a dime.

ARAB GRATITUDE—THE LIGHT OF THE HAREM.
During a successful medical career of mors
than twenty years, in the course ofuhich hi
has visited every quarter of the globe, it may
well be supposed that Professor Holioway hai
been the recipient ot many distinguished maik:
of honof- and confidence. As the originator o
a system of treatment which has swept over thi
world with a force and rapidity that, in thii
enlightened the prerogatives of Truth
his fame everywhere preceded him. Even ir
traversing Arabia, some years ago, he founc
that his name and discoveries were well knowi
to the Sheiks of the various tribes, aod deputa
tions ot Arabs met him at various points of hii
I journey, soliciting the great "Hakim," (theii
; name tor physician) to visit their tents and ad
; minister to the sick. At every encarnprnen

which deepened into absolute reverence as tin
j efleet of his wonderful remedies was witnesset
;by these children of the wilderness. Some o
his adventures among them were quite of a ro
: inan'.ic cast. One ot their chei.'s, a majestit
! oIJ Bedouin, whose favorite daughter had beer
for years affected with a scorbutic disease, wa:
iDO earned away with rapture at her recovery
• under Professor Holloway's hands, that, in s
burst of gratitude, he offered him half his flocki
