THE FAMINE IN THE HOI'TH.
To Ministers of the Gospel.
A circular issued from the Board of
Trade Rooms, Philadelphia, calls upon
the people of Bedford county to con
tribute their mite to the Fund for the
relief of the Starving Poorof the South.
The following have l>een appointed by
the lanagers of the Fund, a commit
tee, to bring the subject before the peo
ple of Bedford county :
John Cessna, W. T. Daugherty, W.
P. Sehell, E. F. Kerr, J. T. Gephart,
J. G. Hartley, B. F. Meyers, G. 11.

P. Diehl, J. B. Williams, C. W. Ash
com, John Filler.
At a meeting of as many of the Com
mittee as could be assembled, it was
Resolved, That the ministers of the
several churches in the county, be re
spectfully requested to announce to
their congregations that contributions
in aid of the Southern Famine Relief
Fund, will be solicited on next Sab
bath, 19th inst., or as soon thereafter as
they may deem best.
We hope that the gentlemen appoin
ted the above committee will see that
ministers in their neighborhood are
requested to announce this collection
to their congregations. There is press
ing need for help. White and black
alike are crying to us for bread. Shall
we turn a deaf ear to the cries of starv
ation? God forbid.
Contributions can be sent to any of
the committee residing in Bedford,
who will at once forward them to the
Treasurer at Philadelphia; or may be
sent direct to J. M. Aertsen, Treasurer, |

"SEEDS OF DISSOM TION.*"
There can he no doubt as to the rapid
decay of the Radical party. The very
fact that its leaders rely wholly and
solely upon the Negro vote to keep
them in power, shows that they believe
their hold upon the people to be loos
ening. Senator Wilson and Judge
Kellej r would not perambulate the
South, appealing to the blacks for as
sistance, did they not see the hand
writingon the wall. Wendell Phillips
thus acknowledges bis conviction that
the party is doomed to disruption :
"The seeds of dissolution have been
sown in the Republican party. Per
haps I should say that the party always
contained the elements of its own de
struction, and that it only required the
provocation of circumstances todevelop
them. At any rate, the development
is visible to the common eye, as it has
long been seen by those whose habits
of close observation have given to their
mental vision a clear sight."
The New York Spirit of (he Times,
always intensely Radical, edited by
George Wilkes, anaeuteand thorough
bred politician, adds its testimony on
this subject:
"The Republican majority in Con
gress, heedless of the lessons of history, .
and heedless of the inexorable laws of
revolution has taken its course and
must abide tne inevitable penalties of
error. Those erratic philosophers with
in its ranks who are aheady sighing
that its majority is too large, need j
sigh no more. The President will bej
speedily reinforced, not only by the re
constructed South, but by sufficient
defections from the Republican party, j
to put an end to the two-thirds votes
which have heretofore embarrassed
him."
These out-givings of leading Radi
cals are as encouraging to Democrats as
they are disheartening to the enemy.
When a party feels itself defeated be
fore it enters the contest, it will not
make a very stubborn stand on the day
of battle. Nevertheless, let us not be
over-confident, but work just as hard j
for Democracy as if the enemy dared
us to the conflict, with all his colors
flyiuff ' _______
KENTUCKY !
The Democrats of old Kentucky
have covered them selves with glory. J
Every Congressional district in the
State elects the regular Democratic
nominee, thus securing nine Democrat
ic members, instead of five as at the
last elect ion. . The Democratic majority
on the popular vote in the State, is up
wards of 35,000! So much for the mil
itary despotism to force Negro Suffrage
upon the South, erected by the late
Radical Congress. Connecticut, Dela
ware, Maryland and Kentucky have
already repudiated it. Pennsylvania
will do the same in October next.
TIIE END DRAWETH SIGH.
Six years cf Disunion! It seems but
yesterday that every State was repre
sented in Congress and every star was
in its place upon the flag. Yetsix years
i have passed away since fifty seats were
made vacant in the National House of
j Representatives, and ten stars were
torn from our flag by the rude hand of
war. Those eats remain vacant, those
I stars have not been restored to thecon
stallation upon our banner. Beaten in
war, their once fair country ruined and
desolate, and now reduced to the ex
tremity of want, the Southern people
errnestly desire to redeem the past by
adhering in good faith to the Constitu
tion and the Union. Two years ago
they threw down their arms and aban
doned their cause forever. Two years
ago they sued for pardon and re-admit
tance to fellowship in the Republic.
During those two years a great struggle
has been in progress, not between the
people of the South and the Federal
Government, but between those who
favor Restoration and those who op
pose it, between the friends of the Un
ion and those who strive to prolong
Disunion. Tiius far a small majority
ol'the Northern people have succeeded
in controlling Congress in the interests
of prolonged Disunion. The Radical
majority in that body have succeeded
in keeping vacant the fifty seats upon the
floor which they occupy. They hare
kept the Union dissolved during the past
two years, and it is their purpose, of
course, to prevent its restoration as long
as possible. The rehabilitation of the
Southern States in their rights under
the Constitution, means death to the
Radical organization, and well do those
who control it, know it. Thaddeus
Stevens says, in a recent public letter,
that organization under the Military
Reconstruction Act, will not entitle the
Southern people to representation in
Congress. lie says confiscation must
be added to tlie provisions of this bill.
But the people are beginning to revolt
at the inhumanity and treachery of the
Radical leaders. Every election held
since the passage of the Reconstruction
Act, bears testimony to the truth of
this statement. The masses Want Res-'
toration and will not brook continued
Disunion. Verily, the end draweth
nigh, when Radicalism, the fiend that
soweth destruction throughout the
land, shall be buried beyond the reach
of resurrection. Let us work patient
ly, but earnestly, to bring about this
result, and the God of Justice and of
Peace will bless our efforts.
Til F. BA DIE AG AGITATION.
The agitators of the Radical faction
belonging to Congress, are employing
the greatest energy in preaching sedi
tion and hate among the negroes of the
South during the vacation. Day after
day, the announcement is made that
some member of the delirious faction
has started South to spread the new
evangelism of the party. Wilson, Kel
ly, Nye, and many more are already
there, and before a week, a seditious ag
itator will he distributed in every district
ichere the military are employed to over
awe the people, or t < organize meetings
of negroes. These champions consti
tute a new order of knighthood, not
like the paladins and chevaliers of old I
who plied up and down the world for
gallant adventure, but one that seeks to
minister to the base passions of the ig
norant.
No danger besets these heroes such
as those that were encountered by an
cient knights errant; they march to
the Southern fields after the war has
ended ; not a man of them was ever in
the front; they smelt the battle afar
off. They safely make their harangues
now beneath the shadow of Federal
bayonets. They are not even in danger
of reproof or reply, for whoever should
attempt one is denounced as an enemy
to the Government, and an unappeasa
ble rebel, or is marched off by a file of
Federal gens <P armes. No matter how
vaunting and arrogant the speech, how
seditious the appeal, or how unmanly
the insult to a fallen enemy, these
itinerant demagogues are safe. Before
starting on their gallant enterprise
against society and order in the South,
they took care to gag by military law
every man who might presume to op
pose them; so they can rant and brava
do, babble to the negro in both ears, cut
the capers of the knightly Falstaff—no
danger of opposition threatens them,
for they have made opposition dumb
by gag law. All that one of these
delirious ranters has to fear is that some
other champion, following in his wake,
may surpass him in braggadocio or
rage, or may cast him in the shade by
brighter promises tohis negro auditors.
This, then, is the great milleniutn of
Radicalism—political demonstrations,
and debates without opponents—
preaching anarchy and sedition to the
ignorant, surrounded by bayonets hired
by the Republic to enslave the people.

JEEFERNON DAVIS.
Underwood, the would-be Jeffreys of
Virginia, has permitted a writ of hab
eas corpus to issue for the production
of Jefferson Davis in his court at Rich
mond. Mr. Davis, it is said, will be
released from military custody, and re
arrested under civil process on an in
dictment for Treason. He was, at last
accounts, lodged at the Spottswood
Hotel. Horace Greely and Augustus
Sehell, of New York, and Gen. Jack
man, of Philadelphia, are at Rich
mond, to offer themselves as bail for
Davis, should Uuderwood be prevailed
upon to release him. It is sail that
Underwood insists upon refusing bail,
and that he has determined to confine
the prisoner in Libby, as he thinks by
so doing to raise a sensation, and at the
same time pander to the resentment of
the Northern people. There seems to be
no present prospect of Mr. Davis' trial.
P. S. Since the above was put in type,
we have learned that Mr. Davis has
been released on bail, the amount be
ing SIOO,OOO, Horace Greely, Augustus
Sehell, General Jack man and A. Welch
becoming his securities. It is said that
Underwood was finally induced to take
bail by the importunings of Mr. Greely
and Mr. Evarts, one of the council for
the Government.
KLACIi RIOT-.
Senator Wilson, Judge Kelly and
other Radical spouters, are traveling
in the South, making inflammatory
speeches to the lazy and thriftless ne
groes congregated in the large cities.
The first fruits of their labors are al
ready visible in the lawless demonstra
tions of their black disciples. Several
negro riots have recently occurred in
Richmond and Charleston, and others
were prevented only by the timely in
terference of the authorities. One of
the Radical stump-orators (Hayward,
of Boston,) was arrested in Richmond,
the other day, for using language cal
culated to stir up Negro mobs. Such
is the work of Radicalism.
THE "IUXXICC TTS."
. A gentleman who has recently trav
eled in Virginia, (pardon us, reader,
we should say, "District No. 1") tells
us that the colored people on the plan
tations in that State, whenever they
want to say something very severe of
a darkey, ejaculate, "Oh, you'snothin'
but a Hunnicutt nigger!" By this is
meant that the colored brother is a" fol
lower of Hunnicutt, the Virginia Aboli
tionist, and to be such is considered
by the elite of the Virginia negroes, as
disreputable in the highest degree.
What must those darkeys think of the
thousands of white men who take their
cue from such fellows as Hunnicutt?

RICHMOND, May 11.—In view of the
recent riot, the Eleventh United States
infantry isabout to encamp permanent
ly at the City springs Park, within the
city.
Some citizens have laid before Gener
al Schofleld a complaint about the lan
guage at the colored meetingon Friday
night, as likely to produce further dis
turbances, and the matter is being in
vestigated.
RICHMOND, May 12.— Another negro
riot occurred in thelowerpart of thecity
last night. The negroes attempted to
rescue a drunken negro from the police.
Bricks, clubs and pistols were used, and
four policemen badly beaten. One of
them is severely injured. A company
of soldiers guarding the Libby Prison
were called on, and captured eighteen
of the rioters.
While this was going on, another ne
gro difficulty occurred on First Street.
This last inob dispersed upon the per
suasion of a colored juryman. To-day
mounted soldiers patrolled the streets
to keep order, and squads of police
were placed at all the churches, in view
of threats of the negroes to force their
way in amongst the white poeple. A
large procession of negro societies atten
ded a funeral to-day, accompanied by
an unarmed company of colored militia,
the officers of which carried swords.
There was no disturbance.
Last nightJedekiah K. Hay ward, of
Massachuetts, was arrested for using
language at the meeting on Friday
nignt calculated to create a riot. His
language was as follows:
"After Judge Underwood leaves,
you can hold high carnival, or what
you please. I need not advise you
what to do, for great bodies do as they
have a mind to."
He was arrested on a warrant from
the Mayor, and was baited in $3,000 to
appear to-morrow.
If a white man unaccompanied by a
lady, (no matter how much of a gentle
men he may be,) attempts to enter a
railroad car devoted to ladies and their
escorts, he is stopped by the conductor
or brakesman and sent into a car devo
ted exclusively to men. Remonstrance
is useless, and there is no rule or law
by which he can compel a conductor to
allow him to choose a car and a seat for
himself. On the other hand, if a negro,
unaccompanied by a negress, (no mat
ter how dirty, hideous, or ill-behaved
he may be,) offers to get into the ladies'
car, the couductor and brakesmen are
bound by the law passed by the Radi
cals of (lie Cameron Legislature to al
low him to do so. If they do not, both
they and the officers of the railroad com
pany by whom they are employed
will be liable to prosecution, tine and
imprisonment, lsthis negro equality ?
No; it is more; for, under that law the
white man has not the same privileges
as a buck negro. Any he-darkey can
enter the ladies'car and force himself
into the same seat with a white lady,
and no one, at the risk of fine and im
prisonment, can prevent him; but no
white man can so much as enter the
car. For all these "blessings," good
ladies and gentlemen of Pennsylvania,
you are indebted to the Radicals of the
Legislature, who passed the bill, and
to John W Geary, who signed it.
Don't you feel thankful to them?—

Wri SON'S TOUR.— Senator Wilson's
Southern tour seema to be a caoo of great
cry and little wool. The flock sur
rounds him but there is little shearing
done, and he is likely to come back
empty-handed. The blacks listen to
him, hut wonder what all the bother
is about.—The whites let him alone,
and have not paid hiin thecompliment
of getting angry at anything he has
said. He has rated them to liis heart's
content,and they hear him with civili
ty, if not with respect, and then Mr.
Wilson packs up his stock of platitudes
and diatribes and takes himself otl
unnoticed to the next town. It seems
rather dull sort of work. It is not, we
may be sure, exactly what the Senator
bargained for. It' there had been a dis
turbance any where what a theme it
would have supplied him with—what
a martyr he would have returned! As
it is. he comes back in the position of
one who thought to move the universe,
and finds that he has not made so much
stir as a gad fly in summer. The Sout
hern people soon found out that it was
not an earthquake or a whirlwind
which had come among them, but only
a reed shaken by the wind. And we
say that this is very discouraging for
poor Mr. Wilson, and we hope he will
bear up bravely under his adversities.—

cause they call in the aid of spirits. Op

bidden to be sold by the periodical deal

sell liquorice! People are liable to be
arrested for being in high spirits!
Children who complain ofthestomach
ache, are locked up for fear it might be
sham pain. Men are arrested on sus

'rectifying' mistakes! Hotels have
had to take 'rum omelets' and 'wine
sauce' off their bills of fare. All book
stores selling histories containing an
account of the ''Battle of Brandy wine'
are closed at once. Dead people cannot
be buried on a bier! Vessels are not
allowed to come into the harbor, be
cause they have to pass a bar in doing
so; and sea captains are not allowed to
take 'any Port in a storm;' if they do
they must tell where they got it! En
terprising men dare not show any pub
lic spirit, and even the poor washer
women are liable to arrest who have
'three sheets in the wind!"
STKUCK BY LIGHTNING.— We learn
that the blacksmith shop of Jacob Lear,
at Shady Grove, was struck by light

afternoon. No serious damage was
done, as the electric fluid did not com

A YOUNG LADY returning to her
country home, after a sojourn of a few months in
the city, was hardly recognized by her friends.
In place of a coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had
a soft ruby complexion of almost marble smooth
ness. and instead of twenty three she really ap
peared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause
of so great a change, she plainly told them
that she used the CIRCASSIAN BALM, and con
sidered it an invaluable acquisition to any Lady's
toilet. By its use any Lady or Gentleman can im
prove their personal appearance an hundred fold.
It is simple in its combination, as Nature herself
is simple, yet unsurpassed in its efficacy in draw
ing impuriiies from, also healing, cleansing and
beautifying the skin and complexion. By its di
rect action on the cuticle it draws from it all its
impurities, kindly healing the same, and leaving
the surface as Nature intended it should be, clear,
soft, smooth and beautiful. Price sl, sent by Mail

DR. SCHENCK'S PULMONIC SYRUP.
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. His phy •
sicians prononnced his case incurable, when he
commenced the tse 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 his 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 his medicines have been
very numerous and truly wonderful. Dr. Schenck
makes professional visits to several of the larger
cities weekly, where he has a large concourse of
patients, and it is truly astonishing to see poor
consumptives that have to be lifted out of tbeir
carriages, and in a few months healthy, robust
persons. Dr. Schenck's PULMONIC SYRUP, SKA
WEED TONIC,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 is
convenient it is best to sec him He gives advice
free, but for a thorough examination with his Re
spirometer 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 he now is, in per
fect health, are on the Government stamp
