BEWARE !
The Mongrels have succeeded, for
some years past, in foisting upon the
unsuspecting, certain pretended neutral
newspapers, such as the Pittsburg Chron
icle, the Philadelphia North American,
the Baltimore American, and other
sheet* of a similar character. As this
is the time of year when subscriptions
for these incendiary publications are
taken, we desire to put our readers on
their guard, so that they may not be
imposed upon. There is not a more
rabid Disunion Negro journal publish
ed in the United States, than the Bal
timore American and the North Ameri
can,of Philadelphia. As for the Pitts
burg Chronicle, it is a cowardly con
cern, which strikes the Democracy
whenever it dares, and should be shun
ned accordingly. If people would
takea good neutral paper, let them sub
scribe to the Baltimore Sun, or the
Philadelphia Ledger-, if they desire a
sound political city paper, a white
man's journal, let them take the Har
risburg Patriot & Union, the Philadel
phia Age, or the Baltimore Gazette, or
Transcript. The Patriot <(■ Union espe
cially should be patronized. It is the
central organ ot the Democracy of
Pennsylvania, and its weekly issue is
really able and useful. Of course, we
think every body should first subscribe
to the BEDFORD GAZETTE; but after
the GAZETTE, we recommend the
Weeklg Patriot Union. The Mon
grels are getting up clubs for the N. Y.
Tribune. Our friends should not allow
themselves to be thus outgeneraled
An antidote to Greeley's poison must
be circulated. Get every body you
can to take the GAZETTE, and the rest
&TUl),R."''NTAv'is' t& time'to
extend the usefulness of Democratic
papers. Let every working Democrat
interest himself in this behalf.
KPOLIA OPl.n.i.
"When Greek meets Greek, then
comes the tug of war!" When Mon
grel meets Mongrel, then cornesthe tug
for the spoils. The latter is the render
ing of the old proverb, as applied to
modern American politics. The mix
ed and motley set that have controlled
the government during the last six !
years, (having, during their aseendan-!
cy, fought for the offices alone, shaped
the legislation of the country only to
the end that they might retain the fat j
things which attach to official station,;
used the machinery of war, the muscle I
and blood and life-breath of the devo- j
ted soldier, merely to secure the emol- j
uments of office, and having determin- j
ed even to keep the Union dissolved to j
maintain themselves in power) are just
now engaged in parceling out among
themselves the fruits, the xpnlia opinio,
of their ill-gotten victory. In Penn
sylvania the struggle among them is
for the U. S. .Senator-hip, soon to he
roine vacant by theexpiration of the
term of Senator Cowan. Curtin, Cam
eron,.Stevens, Forney, Grow and More
bead are all aspirants for this position.
The struggle between them is growing
fierce and bitter. Especially is this the
case as between Curtin and Cameron.
These two worthies are now busily en
gaged in plotting and counter-plotting
against each other, and the whole Mon
grel nest is in a buzz of excitement o
ver the fight between them. Now,
were we a Mongrel, our sympathy
would be decidedly with Curtin. He
is the meanest man in the whole lot,
and. therefore, would best represent
his party. It is true, we might mis
trust his fidelity, for he has betrayed
his own party several times and the De
mocracy once, during the last six years.
But that only proves his meanness,
and, therefore, his fitness to be a Mon
grel U. .S, Senator. What the Mongrels
themselves think about him, remains
to be seen.

THE FXECTIOX IJT AH.EOANY COUN
TY, fIAItVLAM*.
We are informed that in a number
of the districts of Allegany county,
Md., at the late election, the judges re
fused to receive the votes of persons not
registered in 1865, declining to be gov
erned by the registration made by the
registrars appointed by Gov. Swann.
By this process, some three or four hun
dred conservative voters wore disfran
chised in that county. Besides, in some
districts the radical mongrels had arm
ed bands at the polls and thus prevent
ed conservatives from approaching to
deposit their ballots. Still, with all the
force and fraud against them, the friends
of the Constitution and laws, made a
good tight. MeCultoh, Conservative,
was elected to the House of Delegates,
and though the Judges gave certificates
to the remainder of the mongrel can
didates, their scats will he contested,
and we doubt not, the offices into which
they have been foisted by force and
fraud, given to their conservative op
ponents. We make the following ex-
tract front a letter received from a
friend in Cumberland, which shows
that Col. Spates, conservative, is really
elected to the Senate, instead of Oltr,
mongrel, but has been counted out by
the Judges:—"The Radicals have all
had notices served upon them, that
their right to the offices to which they
claim to have been elected, would be
contested. Colonel Spates, conserva
tive candidate for the Senate, took four
men, two radicals and two conserva-
tives, to the Clerk's office, last Satur
day, and demanded the tickets, which
thev counted, and discovered that the
.Judges ha<t made a mistake, the count
giving Spates a majority of 35, instead
of his opponent, Ohr, 12, as the radical
Judges had certified."
REV. DN. JAMES PKESTI,EY, Pastor
of the Second United Presbyterian
Church of Pittsburg, has been tried by
a court of his church, on the several
charges of "Unkind, cruel and violent
treatment of his wife and family," "U
--sing vulgar and profane language" and
"Infidelity to his ma.riage vow." and
lias been found guilty of all the charges.
He was deposed from the ministry and
excommunicated from the church.—
Prestley was one of the preachers that
went about haranguing Abolition gath
erings and was one of the props of the
Mongrel party in Allegheny county.
"Time sets all things even."

I Correspondence of the Bedford Gazette.
HAKKISBEUG, NOV. 2K, 186f>.
Mu. EDITOII: —Your correspondent,
iiftcr a silence perhaps too long protrac
ted, has concluded once more to furnish
you with a few items from the State
Capital. Quite a sensation was produ
ced here among the Mongrel politi
cians, a few days ago, by the announce
ment that Gen. Ilartranft had resigned
the Auditor-Generalship to take a Col
onelcy in the regular army, to which,
it was said, the President had appoint
ed him. It seemed strange that so
high-toned a patriot as Ilartranft would
stoop so low as to accept an appoint
ment at the hands of the infamous au
thor of "My Policy," and the upshot
ha* t .roved that rumor had done the
gallant General injustice, for, it seems,
he has not resigned at all, but intends
to hold ttii to his position "on the hill."
There are those who still say (envious
and malicious ones) that the General
had advanced his pickets toward Wash
ington, with the intention of laying
siege to the White House, but not feel
ing sure of his base, and fearing that
some other eager patriot might occupy
his fortification at Harrisburg, should
he evacuate, he concluded to fall back
upon that position and hold it to the
last. Brave man! How could the
State do without him?
Our newly elected (?) Governor, he
of the "no prefix," is in great tribula
tion just about this time, in regard to
his appointment of Cabinet Officers. A
number of "loyal" men are willing to
serve as Attorney General, Secretary of
the Commonwealth, Ac., Ac. In fact
their willingness to sacrifice themselves
in this way, i pressed so unremitting
ly upon the Governor's attention, that
he is in quite a quandary as to how he
will succeed in rewarding their disin
terested patriotism. There's Frank.
Jordan, of your town, would like to be
Attorney General; but John Scott, of
Huntingdon, wants a little pay for ser
vices rendered, and claims that noth
ing but that position will remunerate
him for turning his back upon his old
friends, and as Geary naturally sym
pathizes with renegades, John stands a
good chance of—"passing over Jordan."
Outside pressure, however, may yet
put your townsman all right. But be
tween these two (and several mores our
Democratic Governor, "without prefix
or affix," is in a terrible stew. He
"could he happy with either, if t'other
dear charmer were away!" but how is
lie to satisfy both ? Poor Geary ! he is
in the hands of the Philistines, and he
cannot now see his way as clear as Sam
son could when he was asked to be led
to the pillars of the temple. Sic tran
sit ffloria gnlternaloris !
Gov. Curtin is busily engaged in elec
tioneering for the Mongrel caucus nom
ination for IT. S. Senator. Strange
as it may seem, he is apparently the
strongest candidate spoken of at pres
ent. Gen. Cameron is also on the lapis,
and I will be greatly mistaken it he
doesn't give His Excellency some trou
ble, before the latter reaches the vacant
chair of Edgar Cowan. Curtin has had
his fugleman, MeClure, to call a county
convention in Franklin county, for the
purpose of instructing for him*(Curtin)
for C. S. Senator. Stambaugh, the
member from Franklin, and McCon
aughy, the Senator from the Franklin
district, are friends of Cameron, and
(,'urtin took this plan to tie their hands.
It remains to be seen whether they
will tamely submit to this sort of work.
Curtin is just about the meanest man
in the whole "Mongrel" party, having
deceived everybody that ever placed
confidence in him, and I, therefore,
think him the Very best representative
of that party that could be sent to the
U. S. Senate. Forney and Stevens too,
are aspirants for this position. Apro
pos of this, it is related that a certain
politician visited the latter some time
ago, upon the subject of transferring
some of his votes to one or another of
his competitors. Old Thad. opened out
on his visitor as follows: "Forney!
No one ever trusted him except Buch
anan! Curtin! why, he is the great
est liar in the State,and as to Cameron,
he is the greatest rascal! Now, what
would you have me do?" A lovely set,
are they not ?
The U. S. Senator question slightly
involves the minor one of Speaker of
the House. Col. Quay, of Heaver, is
the Curtin candidate, whilst W. B.
Waddell, Esq., of Chester, is put for
ward by the Caineronians. Waddell is
the better man of the two, and was
really the leader of his party in the last
House. It is probable, however, that
Quay will be the man. But enough for
this time from LEX.

M;TTI:R FROM IIOUESIMX.
NEAR CHEXEYSVI I.LE, \
Nov. 2f>, )
! EDITOR GAZETTE:— I am quite re-;
1 lieved to find that the black-guard who [
lias been slandering the people, as well j
as the topography, of our good old
s<intli;m>tnn under the nn> <lr nhime
ot •"■Pilgrim," is nor tne same who, last
year, wrote for your paper, in ob
jurgation of the kinky-headed lunatics
who wouldn't take passage in his "car
of progress." I had been informed that
"Pilgrim" is identical with your "Un
cie Toby" of last year, but could not be- i
lieve that the latter had fallen so far I
; from grace as to he capable of so vil-'
1 lainous a calumny upon his own friends ■
! and neighbors as that uttered in his ;
J first letter. Hence my heart was glad-
' dened when I saw, in the GAZETTE, a
I repudiation and condemnation of that
I calumnious letter over the proper sig
' nature of the veritable "Uncle Toby"
himself. 1 was rejoiced at this, because
} I could not bear to think of one "whose
; gentle calling requires him to reprove
■ the back-biter and slanderer, and who
! professes to be a minister of Him Who
when He was "reviled, reviled not a
j gain," thus dipping his pen "in the
gall of bitterness," and striving to
blacken the good name of those who
i never entertained even a harmful
| thought of bint. The idea of such
i wanton malignity was so revolting to
me that I could not for a moment, con
nect it with the iauib-iike character of
our gentle "Uncle Toby," ruminating
in the ".Shadow of the Mountain," or
riding quietly and inoffensively in his
"Car of Progress." It could not be
possible, I thought, that the Fiend
himself, had insinuated his loathsome
shape under so fair an exterior. I thrust
the suspicion from me, and almost ha
ted myself for being so ungenerous as
to entertain it for a moment. 1 am
convinced, however, of one tiling, viz:
"Pilgrim" is not a resident of this
township. People here are not taught
to spell the word canra ** (wtien applied
to a political campaign; with only one
j •; hence "Pilgrim" can't be a Soutli
aiuptonian. By the way, don't you
think that "Pilgrim," after spelling
cwivass , with but one*, would spell his
own name thus, .1*! Put it makes
very little difference where this con-j
tcmptihle calumniator lives. The poi- j
son he intends for others, will only kill
himself. Let the viper blow. His I
fangs will soon be the trophy of the j
friends of HOMESPUN, j
HA.VDSOMK GAlNS.— Although the
Democracy of this .State, during the
past six years, hail to encounter Satan
anil his agents, in the shape of war,
provost marshals, sneaks, spies, inter
nal and external foes, forts, prisons and
even death, they have, after overcom
ing all this opposition, increased their
vote from 230,1)00 to 2JR),ooo—just 00,-
000; while our enemies, with all these
elements to favor them, have increased
from 202,000 to 307,000 —or only about
15,000. If Democrats grow in this
manner while the soil is tilled by our

Driving Out (ho Devil.
The Sacramento (California) /ice, of

a copy : "To the Honorable the Presi
dent and the Hoard of Trustees of the
City of Sacramento—The undersigned,
residents of the city of.Sacramento, pray
your honorable board to grant them
promission to burn firecrackers and oth
erwise celebrate, in accordance with the
customs of their native country, for the
period of three days, for the purpose of
driving the devil from the city, and
particularly from that portion of it oc
cupied by the Chinese. (Signed) Sacra

On a Tour.
Chief Justice Chase, —the great law

his debut in Philadelphia, before the

what a noble position for a Judge! what
a mark for emulation! but then water
will find its level.— The Jeffersonian.
•'The Amendment*."
The North has pronounced for this
amendment with such a degree of una
nimity, that we can see no hope for the
settlement of our political troubles,
and the admission of the South to the
right of representation in Congress, but
in its adoption.— N. Y. Times.
The Times is mistaken. One election
does not finally sett lea quest ion in this
country. A decision at the polls is not
irrevocable, but granting it, we do not
think that the late elections prove that |
the majority of the Northern people
favor the constitutional amendment;
they do not prove that that demand
may not be reconsidered. It is not just i
to enact an ex post f<ieto law. it is notj
just to invite a people to ostracize their
leading citizens. It is not just to pre-;
scribe precedent conditions to the exer
cise of rights conferred by the Consti- ]
tution, and if the Southern people de-j
cline to acquiesce in any such injustice, j
and make another appeal to the sense j
of fair dealing of the North, it does
not follow that the latter will con
tinue to do injustice in the future be- j
cause they have been betrayed into it
in the past.
The unanimity of which the Times
speaks amounts to this : that in a poll
of six hundred thousand votes in Penn
sylvania, for instance, the Radicals
have a majority of 17,000. Now, every
I sensible man knows that the election
was not carried in Pennsylvania or
elsewhere by a fair argument of the
constitutional amendment, but by an
incessant exasperating appeal to the
passions. The bloody horrors of the
late war were recalled. The costly
preparations and vast expenditures of
the contest were dwelt upon, with ev
ery magnifying detail, except that of
the gigantic swindling of political con
tractors. The dark crime of 'reason
was painted in its blackest, most re
volting colors. The loss of fathers and
sons, and brothers and husbands, was
aggravated by passionate rhetoric and
vindictive phrases. The mournful
memories of the hospital, the sad trag
edies of the prison, were set forth with
every harrowing detail of sorrow and
agony. The defiant language of a bold,
high spirited foe, nerved to despera
tion, uttered throughout tiie contest,
was reproduced in every variety of
provoking presentation, and the spirit
of these same people when they laid
down their arms, was grossly and per
sistently represented as one of insolent
demand. Put the American people
are incapable of continued injustice.
They will respond to the claims of fair
ness and constitutional rights. The
Radicals may rejoice in their brief hour
of triumph, but the reaction of conser
vative patriotism and of a catholic na
tionality will ere long assert itself and
the South be restored to its wonted
place in the national legislature.—Na
tional Intelligencer.
WIIKUE'STHE NHHJER?—A Radical
sheet, the Tamaqua Journal, says:
"We have had the Republican victory—now
where's the "Nigger ?"
Thereupon the Bellefonte Watchuuin
"goes in" at the following rapid rate:
"Go to your store and you get from
eighteen to twenty-five cents worth of
nigger in every yard of muslin you buy;
from ten to fifteen cents of nigger in
every yard of calico your wife and
children use; from six to eight dollars
worth of nigger in each barrel of fiour
your family consumes; twenty-five
cents worth "of nigger in each pound of
coffee you purchase; from eight to
twelve cents worth of nigger in every
pound of sugar you buy to sweeten it;
you'll find a small bit of nigger in your
box of matches, and considerable nig
ger in your plug of tobacco. You can
eat nothing, wear nothing, see nothing,
taste nothing or have nothing, that is
nut more </v les.? affected by the misera
ble niggerism that has controlled the
country since "Old Abe" left Spring
field for Washington."
We reckon, after this burst, the Ta
maqua fellow won't "come to time."
ATTEMT AT BURGLARY. —'Tuesday
night or early Wednesday morning last,
an attempt was made to makea burgla
rious entrance into an outhouse belong
ing to Mr. C. Boerner, situate on the
street adjoining his residence, in this
borough, the purpose being to rob the
house, which contained quite a quanti
ty of flour, corn, meat, A*c. The thief
had bored a number of holes through
theshutter of one of the windows, mak
ing sufficient aperture to admit his
hand ; through this he had attempted
to loosen the fastening of the window;
but, finding himself unable to do so had
bored another hole through the weath
erhoarding near the fastening. At this
point it is probable he became alarmed
awl gave up the attempt. Mr B will
give a handsome reward for the detec
tion of the thief.
The same night the stable of Mr. F.
Fixen, ashort distanceout of town, was
entered, and a horse saddle and bridle
taken out (doubtless by the same party
or parties, for the purpose of carrying
away the expected booty), and after
having been used, the horse was turned
loose, and together with saddle and bri
dle were found in the morning near Mr.
Fixen's stable. The thieves had also
taken a pane out of the window of Mr.
Peightel's wagon shop, by which means
they had been enabled to extract a brace
and some half dozen hits, which had
doubtless been used in attempting the
entrance into Mr. Boomer's flour house.

MORE than half of the obstacles in
your path are like a rotten stump in
the woods, which a timid man takes
for a ghost, and runs away. A brave
man walks up to it, and finds it to he
what it is. Never he assailed and un
nerved by what is said about risks and
difficulties and competitions. Never
retreat into a narrow and obscure walk,
with its only one chance of success and
usefulness, as if it were the safer for
that. Push forward, if you have the
common consciousness of ability, into
the great thoroughfares, where, though
a hundred chances of success and useful
ness should fail, a hundred chances are
left.— James Walker.

DR. SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYR^P.
This great medicine cured Dr. J. H. Schenck. the
proprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, when it
had assumed its most formidable aspect, and when
speedy death appeared to be inevitable. Hisphy.
sicians prononnced his case incurable, when he
commenced the ise of this simple but powerful
remedy. His health was restored in a very short
time, and no return of the disease has been appre
hended, for all the symptoms quickly disappeared,
and bis present weight is more than two hundred
pounds.
Since his recovery, he has devoted his attention
exclusively to the cure of Consumption, and the
diseases which are usually complicated with it.
and the cures effected by bis medicines have heen
very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr. Schenck
makes professional visits to several of the larger
cities weekly, where he has a large concourse or
patients, and it is truly astonishing to see poor
consumptives that have to be lifted out of their
carriages, and in a few months healthy, robust
persons. Dr. Schenck's PULMONIC SVBU!>. SKA
WEBDTONIC. and MANDRAKE PILLS, are generally
all required in curing Consumption. Full direc
tions accompany each, so that any one can take
them without seeing Dr. Schenck, but when it
convenient it is best to see him He gives advice
free, but for a thorough examination with his Re
spiroinetcr his fee is three dollars.
Please observe, when purchasing, that the two
likenesses of the Doctor, one when in the last stage
of consumption, and the other as ho now is, in per
fect health, are on the Government stamp
