BACKS OFT.
In our issue of week before last, we
proposed that if the Radicals of this
Representative district would nomi
nate but one candidate for member of
the Legislature, we would agree that
no Democratic candidate should be
placed in nomination for Poor Director.
We made this proposition in good
faith, in order to soothe the anxiety of
the Bedford Inquirer as well in regard
to Poor House affairs as to the incor
ruptibility of the next Legislature.
But our very liberal offer has been re
jected, and it becomes the painful duty
of the Democracy to elect one of their
own number as Poor Director, which
they will now do by a larger majority
than ever was given before to any can
didate for that office. The Inquirer has
acknowledged, time and again, that
the Legislature needs reformation. But
it is unwilling to permit Democrats to
be elected for that purpose. Now,
then, if Radicals only are to reform the
Legislature, let us see that none but
Democrats are elected to reform affairs
at the Poor House. The Inquirer seems
to be afraid that if it were to assent to
our proposition, we might be chosen by
our party to represent this district in
the Legislature. On that point we can
only say, that Radicalism has made the
title of "Member of the Legislature"
synonymous with Thief and Robber,
and we choose to keep clear of such
company. Until the Augean stables
at Harrisburg are cleaned, we prefer
the "private station." Besides, legisla
tive life has not the attractions for us
that it is, doubtless, supposed to have
by the "standing candidate" of the In
quirer, who "measures our oats in his
own haif bushel." To him we say that
whenever we fall so low, politically,
that we can't carry a single district for
a party nomination, or fail to receive a
half dozen votes at our own poll for
such nomination, we hope at least to
have sense enough left not to say or do
anything which would bring us into
comparison with men who have been
the chosen standard-bearers of their
party, when the tight raged hottest and
thickest, and in victory as well as in de
feat.
MEXICO.
The struggle between the Imperial
and Liberal parties in Mexico, has end
ed in the overthrow of the former,
Maximilian and his lieutenants having
surrendered unconditionally to Escobe
do, the commander of the Juarez forces.
The downfall of the ill-starred emperor
has been evident ever since the with
drawal of the French troops. The Lib
eral army began to increase in numbers
and efficiency just as soon as the last
French bayonet disappeared from Mex
ican soil. It had been scattered into
insignificant guerrilla parties, formida
ble only to travelers and unprotected
trains, but from this condition it ral
lied, gained a few small successes over
the Imperialists, recruited, won some
important victories and finally hemmed
in its enemy at Queretaro, which, un
der the command of Maximilian in
person, made a brave and desperate re
sistance, only to beeome at last, the
scene of the denouement of the Franco-
Austrian-Mexican empire. It is said
that Juarez has determined that Max
imilian and his officers shall be shot.
The sympathy of Americans has been
with the Liberals in their struggle to
drive Maximilian from the country,
but if the restoration of that party is
to be signalized by so barbarous an act
as the execution of the Imperial lead
ers, we hardly know whether even the
vindication of the Monroe Doctrine
will justify us in continuing our good
wishes for the "Patriot President." —
Let us hope that no such tragedy wi'l
wind up the Franco-Austrian farce in
Mexico, but that humanity, order and
peace will mark the rule of the restor
ed President.
All the former deprecatory acts of
the man are wiped out.— lnquirer.
In the name of all the lexicograph
ers that ever lived, what do you mean
bv "deprecatory acts?"
A TASTE OF THEIR OWS HEDICINE.
We see by a telegraphic report, that
Gen. Swayne, one of the sub-satraps
under the Reconstruction Law, com
manding the post of Mobile, Ala., has
suppressed the publication of the Na
tional Republican, a Radical Negro or
gan, on the ground that it has uttered
"incendiary" matter. I'he article com
plained of was one instructing the ne
groes "when and how to use firearms."
Now, we are for the freedom of the
press all the time, no matter what
cause the publisher may advocate. We
deprecate the course of Gen. Swayne in
regard to this Radical sheet just as
much as we condemned the conduct of
Lincoln's administration in closing the
offices of the N. Y. Daybook and other
Democratic journals throughout the
North. Doubtless, the Negro organ at
Mobile exceeded the bounds of law;
but, then, its publisher could have been
punished according to law, without
forcibly stopping his press. The Rad
ical party are now getting a taste of
their own medicine. We sincerely
hope it may cleanse their stomachs of
the bile which has made them the
scourge of the country.
THE Inquirer calls us a "periphery"
and a "rhomboid," intending thereby
to describe our "roundness." The an
gular trapeziums of that newspaperial
parallellogram, grope about in the
thick darkness of their trigonometrical
ignorance, for hard names for us, who
simply deal with them on the square,
and lose themselves in the intricate
mazes of the science of geometry. These
miserable editorial parallellopipedons
ought to have known that everything
round, no matter how large or how small,
has a "periphery," and that a "rhom
boid" means something with ang
lesand crooked corners like themselves,
and not roundness and fatneas resulting
from a good stomach and a clear con
science. Go to, ye small ends of an
isosceles triangle!
The jubilation of the Gazette over
the release of Jeff Davis.— lnquirer.
When and how did the GAZETTE re
joice over "the release of Jeff. Davis?"
Point us to the line or sentence in which
our "jubilation" over that event is ex
pressed, or be forever silent. We de
sire that Jefferson Davis shall be tried
for Treason, by the proper civil court
and by a jury of his countrymen fairly
and lawfully empaneled. We want to
know what constitutes Treason in this
country, or whether there is any such
crime as Treason. If Mr. Davis is not
tried, we shall be greatly disappointed.
Has the Inquirer ever demanded his
trial ? Has that sheet ever urged upon
Judge Chase and the Radical U. S. Dis
trict Attorney for Virginia, the impor
tance of having a judicial disposition
of the case of Jefferson Davis? Never
once!
When had the Republicans the con
trol of this county?— lnquirer.
During three years of the time of Mr.
Blymyer as Treasurer, the "Republi
cans" had a majority in the Board of
Poor Directors, in the persons of Messrs.
Shuck and Trout, and during those
years mistakes to the amount of about
$3,000 occurred. During that time the
whole Poor House machine, Director,
Treasurer, Steward, Clerk and all, were
under the control of the "Republicans."
And it is for these $3,000 of "Republi
can" mistakes that the Democrats, ac
cording to the Inquirer , are to be held
responsible. A pretty way of getting
rid of an unpleasant responsibility,
truly!
Our friend across the corner is "go
ing" for Horace Greely most lovingly.
—lnquirer.
Not so fast, Bro. Lutz! We think
Horace Greely one of the most danger
ous men, because one of the shrewdest,
in your party. He became surety for
Jefferson Davis, because he hopes by so
doing to make friends for his party,
among the white people of the South.
Of course, "narrow-minded block
heads" can't see the drift of Horace's
magnanimity.
Our neighbor intimates that we have
been in the substitute business. Not
that we know of. We can confidently
say that we never put in a substitute.
Can our neighbor say as much? — In
quirer.
You meant to say, "Can our neighbor
say as little?" No! most emphatically,
not! We did put in a substitute, al
though never drafted. You pleaded
"varicose veins," and "near-sighted
ness," and one could always tell when
a draft was to be made, by Bro. Lutz'
gait.
BLOCKIIEADM vs. COPPERHEADS.
Horace Greely having dubbed those
people who disapprove his course in
bailing Jeff. Davis, "narrow-minded
blockheads," it is at last settled what
is to be the generic title of the pie-bald
and mongrel opposition to the Demo
cratic party. "The Blockheads" will
sound very well as a set-off to "Copper
heads."

A COON CIIASK. —It was anovel sight
truly, toseeThos. F. Zeigler, John M.
Dixson and James Doyle, three Broad
Toppers, crossing the field of Mr. John
Crain in hot pursuit of a coon. Zeigler
and Dixon led the hunt. Doyle ran
well too, but a good way behind. The
coon being too close pursued took ref
fuge in an old barn, climbed to the roof
and strange to relate, was brought down
in Davy Crocket style, wthout injury to
either captors or coon. His coonship
is now domiciled in a small habitation
at the residence of Mr. Crain, prepared
by the parties who captured an old
coon without the assistance of dogs. S.
Brooks, Esq., and R. Divelbliss were
the delighted witnesses of the chase.—

HIGHWAY ROBBERY.— A daring
high way robbery was perpetrated upon
George W. Kuhns, a resident of this
place, while iij a buggy on the road
leading to Glatz's Ferry, in Hellaui
township. The affair occurred on Sun
day of last week. As Mr. Kuhns was
driving along, he was asked by John
Wolf, a citizen of Hellam township, for
a seat in his buggy. Mr. Kuhns con
sented. Shortly afterwards heattempt
ed to take something from Mr. Kuhns'
pocket, whereupon a scuffle ensued be
tween them. About this time three
men, strangers, came to the assistance
of Wolf, when Mr. Kuhns finding re
sistance against so many, useless, ran
off to the nearest house. As soon as he
was able to procure some assistance, he
returned and found his horse, coat, and
buggy where he had left them in the
road. His pocket book, containing a
small sum of money, was taken. The
robbery was one of the most daring
and reckless on record, and we hope,
for the sake of travellers that the per
petrators may be apprehended and
punished, as an example to others who
feel disposed to commit similar outra
ges.— York Gazette.
D A R*l N G ROBBERY.— On Friday
morning last, between three and four
o'clock, a safe in tne drugstore of John
Read, of this place, was blown open
with powder, by burglars. The thieves
entered the store, by a back window,
and finding the safe behind the count
er, had drawn it out to the centre of
the room, and placed powder in the
key-hole. It is thought the safe ex
ploded about the time the trains were
passing, the sound of which deadened
the report. Money to the amount of
about $lOO is thought to have been
taken from it. The safe was complete
ly bursted, which revealed the fact
that it was a very unsafe affair at best,
being bound with thin sheet iron lined
with boards, and filled in with clay
of a common kind. The thieves have
not been arrested, and we would caution
our people to beware of a repetition of
such outrages, and advise them to leave
as little money in their safes as possi
ble.—Hunt. Globe.
COUNTERFEIT NOTES.— Kennedy's
Bank Review for May cautions the pub
lic against recieving the new and dan
gerous imitations of the $2 bills of the
National Bank. They are gotten up
in a style well calculated to deceive.
The following marks of distinction
may assist in detecting these bills : In
the first place the signatures of both
President and Cashier are printed,
while in all genuine bills the names
are invariably written. The letters"t"
and "s" in the title "Pres't," in the o
riginal are separated by the apostrophe.
In the counterfeit the near figure of the
two females, sitting in the lower right
is almost invisible; in the genuine it
is very clear and distinct. The back
of the bill isstill morebunglingly made
than the front. The green is pale and
poor, and in the true bill no letters a
long the top touch on the green border,
while in the spurious the words are
partly printed on the green entirely a
cross. The picture plate is too large for
the green border.
The Negro Riot in Danville, Va.—'The
I n i('<i Ktate.H Burial Corps Attacked
and Driven from their Works—The
"Loyal Colored Men*' on the Rampage.
[From the Richmond Examiner, May 30 ]
On Monday afternoon last a party of
sixty colored men, belonging to the
burial corps, stationed near Danville,
went into the town for the avowed pur
pose of "setting the town to rights."
Shortly after getting into the corpora
tion, they met with a white citizen,
with whom they got into an alterca
tion; very high words ensued, and
threats of bodily violence were made
towards him. About this time a color
ed man (living in Danville) came up,
and took up the quarrel of the white
man. Ho was quiekly reinforcod by
colored men, and quite a large number
of them gathered on the ground. A
melee ensued, pistols, stones, bricks,
and other missiles were freely used on
both sides. After a stubborn fight, the
burial corps negroes were driven out of
town, into their camp. Three or four
of them were wounded quite seriously.
Two of the resident negroes of Dan
ville received wounds, but not of a ser
ious character. The negroes connected
with the burial corps were employed
during the war, and since, for a short
time, in guarding confederate prison
ers, ant' have been very turbulent and
disorderly since they have been in Dan
ville, and have been frequently engag
ed in disturbances with the colored
peonle of the town. During the riot
on Monday, Captain Taylor, of the
burial corps, was very energetic in his
efforts to suppress it, and was promptly
and efficiently seconded by the police
force of the town. Everything that
could be done by the authorities, mili
tary and civil, to stop it, was done, but
without success, until the burial corps
negroes were driven out of the town to
their cam p.

Incendiary Radical Sheet Suppressed.
MOBILE, May 31.—Yesterday's edi

pressing the paper says:
The paper is rendered amenable to

May 19, prohibiting the publication of
articles inciting to riot and violence,

SUPREME JUDGE. —Since it has been
understood that Judge Chapman of
Bucks, positively refuses the use of his
name in connection with the office of
Judge of the Supreme Court, public
sentiment of the democracy of this
county has been gradually inclining
towards Judge Sharswood of Philadel
phia. JudgeS. ranks deservedly among
the ablest jurists not only of this State
but of the whole country. His integ
rity as a man, is above suspicion ; and
the ability, and impartiality which
have characterized his conduct as one
of the Judges of the District Court of
Philadelphia, have secured for him the
respect and confidence of men of all
parties in that city. There is proba
bly, no man in the State, better fitted
in ail essential qualifications, than
Judge S. to succeed Judge Woodward
on the Supreme bench. — West Chester

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 Ludy a
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 impurities 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 $l, sent by Mail

CONSUMPTION* CURABLE BY DR
SCHENCJC'S MEDICINES.— To cure consumption, the
system must be prepared so that the lungs will
heal. To accomplish this, the liver and stomach
must first be cleansed and an appetite created for
good wholesome food, which, by these medicines
will be digested properly, and good healthy blood
made; thus building up the constitution. 6chenck's
Mandrake Pills cleanse the stomach of all bilioas
or mucous accumulations; and, by using the Sea
Weed Tonic in connection, the appetite is restored.
Schenck'g Pulmonic Syi lp is nutritious as well
as medicinal, and, by using the three remedies, all
impurities are expelled from the system, and good,
wholesome blood made, which will repel all dis
ease. If patients will take thete medicines ac
cording to directions, consumption very frequently
in its last stage yields readily to their action.—
Take the pills frequently, to cleanse the liver and
stomach. It does not follow that because the bow
els are not costive they are not required, for some
times in diarrhoea they are necessary. The stom
ach must be kept healthy, and an appetite created
to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act on the respir
atory organs properly and allay any irritation.
Then all that is required to perform a permanent
cure is, to prevent taking cold. Exercise about
the rooms as much as possible, eat all the richest
food—fat meat, game, and, in fact, anything the
appetite craves; but be particular and masticate
well. 2d w
