Once upon a time there lived two
brothers upon adjoining farms. The
one was a large, stout, muscular man
who looked as though he could whip
his weight in wild-cats, and "didn't
much deceive his looks." The other
was small in stature, but his sinews
were tougH and wiry and his eye shot
forth a glance of fire. For many years
the two brothers lived side by side, in
great harmony. Their substance in
creased, large families grew up around
them, and they were really very pros
perous and happy. In the course of
time, however, there came to the farm
of the big brother, a mischief-making
fellow, sent by the mother of the two
brothers who owned an island on the
other side of the great deep, and who,
for some reason or other, never did
have much affection for her sons. This
emissary hastened to tell the big broth
er, that the little fellow managed his
farm very improperly, that he treated
his laborers badly and that it was a dis
grace to the big brother that he permit
ted such conduct in his neighbor. The
result was that when the two brothers
met, the subject was introduced by the
big brother, and a dispute arose between
them. The dispute soon became a se
rious quarrel and the quarrel, in due
time, ended in blows. Both parties
were enraged and fought like tigers.
The little fellow was tough and spunky,
but the weight and muscle of the big
brother conquered in the end. Never
theless, the fight lasted until the big
brother was seriously crippled, whilst
the little fellow was left for dead. The
survivor at once took possession of his
brother's estates, set over them his own
dependents, and was about to proceed
to manage them in his own way, when
happening to look toward the prostrate
form of his brother, he imagined that
he perceived a faint glimmer of life in
the supposed dead man's eyes. Fear
ful lest the latter might revive, and
claim again the estates which he once
possessed, the big fellow put his heel
upon his prostrate brother's neck and
crushed the life out of him forever.
The name of the big brother was
North , that of the little one South.
HYPOCRISY BOILED DOWX.
The Radical leaders, after having de
ceived the soldiers with a bounty law
which makes no provision for the pay
ment of the bounties it proposes to give,
thus insult the intelligence of the men
whom they have cheated and are now
seeking again to deceive:
"That the gratitude of the people to
the soldiers and sailors, whose bravery
met and overthrew the slaveholders'
rebellion, should have repeated and
emphatic expression; and that we heart
ily disapprove of and condemn the
course of the Secretary of the Treasury,
in postponing and ignoring the just
claims of our brave defenders upon the
bounty of the Government, awarded to
them by the National Congress."
This language is found in the plat
form of the Radical party of this State.
Words are very cheap and it is an easy
matter to fawn and flatter, but why did
not these glorious friends of the soldier
denounce Congress, their own Congress,
for not making provision for the pay
ment of the additional bounties? Ah!
there's the rub! The Secretary of the
Treasury would willingly pay them,
n 'y, he could not withhold payment, if
he had the means wherewith to do it.
And why is it that the treasury is ex
hausted? Soldiers, we will tell you!
It is because the expenses of the Congres
sional Satraps who have been set up ovet
the South, in order to Africanize that por
tion ofVhe country, must be paid. It
costs millions upon millions to carry
out the Congressional plan of recon
struction, which is intended for no oth
er purpose than to hand over the ten
excluded States to the domination of
negroes, so that the Radical party may
retain its ascendancy. The Freedman's
Bureau and the Reconstruction Suzer
ains must be supported. Soldiers, you
can wait for your bounties till the Rid
icals make the negroes your political
and social equals!—ln view of these
facts, (and stubborn facts they are) is
not the above quoted resolution, a piece
of the most infamous, shameless, and
disgusting hypocrisy that ever emana
ted from the heart of man ? Who can
be deceived by it, nay, who will not
join us in denouncing it as it deserves?
UHtBE THEY STA^M,
In the plat form, adopted by the late
Radical State Convention v/e find the
following resolution:
"Resolved , That this Convention,
speaking for the ltepub) leans of Penn
sylvania, unreservedly endorse the Re
construction of the Thirty
ninth and Fortieth Congresses, as based
upon sound principle" A c ., &c.
What are the principal features of the
"Reconstruction measures of the Thir
ty Ninth and Fortieth Congresses?"
Why, Universe,l Xegro Suffrage and the
dis/ranchisernf nt of two thirds of the
white people in the South ! Republicans
of Pennsylvania! Did this Convention
really speak for you, when it endorsed
such black and damnable work? It
cannot be possible! You don't want
ten States to be ruled by Negroes ' You
don't want African members of Con
gress, Governors, Judges, etc., etc.? If
you do, you are the worst enemies this
government ever had. If you do, you
properly belong to the Radical party
and fully deserve to share its infamy.
But we cannot, will not, believe that
you approve such wicked, malignant
and devilish doctrines. You will repu
diate them at the polls, for they have
never, heretofore, formed a part of the
Republican creed, and you are not
hound, even by party ties, to sustain
them.
BOUND TO SHINE.
Thatgal van ized Copperhead who now
tries to run the Radical machine in this
county, the Honorable John Cessna,
pushed himself into the late B. H.
County Convention, as a delegate from
Bedford borough. "Dad" is bound to
shine, and as he was restrained in the
State Convention by the prudent J. 8.,
he determined to get off his thunder in
the smaller body. He is progressing
rapidly in the favor of the Radicals,
having commenced his career among
them as a candidate for Governor and
got as far as a del< gateship to a possible
Representative Conference. Vive l<s
Dad!
THE Radical B. IT. Congress have
passed a supplement to the supple
mentary Reconstruction Bill, and, we
presume, that the white people of the
South have their civil throats cut from
ear to ear this time. The kingdom of
New Dahomey will soon take the place
of the abolished Southern States. All
that is wanting to complete the radical
plan, is to import a few thousand goril
las into the black dominion, and should
Stanbery object to such a proceeding as
not authorized by the Supplemental
Supplementary Reconstruction Act,
another session can easily be, called to
remedy the matter.
IN the Surratt case, the defence have
thus far proved the principal witnesses
for the prosecution to be a set of mis
erable liars and criminals and have
also established the fact that Surratt
was in Elmira, N. Y., on the day of
the assassination. It is now shown that
Weichman,upon whose testimony Mrs.
Surratt was sent to the gallows, is an
unnameable villain, and that he was
the bosom friend and constantcompan
ionof Atzerodt,one of the conspirators.
A pretty pet of Mr. Stanton's!
THE Radical B. H. County Conven
tion was very severe upon one of the
editors of the Inquirer , one of their res
olutions calling "the earnest and delib
erate attention and consideration of the
tax-payers of Bedford county" "to
the defalcation of collectors and
others." Really this was the unkindest
cut of all!
THE Radical B. H. County Conven
tion recommend that the late District
Attorney be brought back to assist
them in fixing up the finances of the
county. Of course; he would suit them
exactly since he has adopted their prin
ciples.
WE have asked the Bedford Inquirer,
several times, whether its editors and
its party are in favor of the establish
ment of Negro Suffrage in Pennsylva
nia, and have received no answer. Is
the Inquirer afraid to face the music?
ROBERT J. WALKER, himself a zeal
ous supporter of the war, in his argu
ment before the Supreme Court on the
military bill, thufc characterized it:
"I have gone through Egypt, Syria,
Turkey in Asia and Turkey in Europe,
and thousands of miles through Russia,
and there was no such despotism in Af
rica, or Asia, or Turkey, or Russia, as
that which <vas established by these
acts. They all had courts of some de
scription, and allowed a hearing and
opportunity of defence. Thesword was
not the only arbiter. But here an act
of Congress*swept ten states out of ex
istence, reduced them to a worse than
territorial bondage, and subjected ev
ery one of them—ten millions of peo
ple, of all ages, sexes and colors —to the
despotic will of a military command
er."
The Radicals affected to sneer at this
description of their pet measure when
it was first uttered.' Now they insist
that it isexactly what Mr. Walker said
it was, and hold a meeting of Congress
to give it that effect!
—Mr. Shanks, of Indiana, applauds
the butchery of Maximilian, and Mr.
Tipton, of Kansas, advocates the offer
ing of bounty for Indian scalps. Thqpe
are representative men of the Radical
party.
SHORTS—POLITICAL AMD PERS**X*I~
JUDGE LUDLOW, of Philadelphia,
has been nominated by the Philadel
phia Bar, irrespective of party, for re
election to the Common Pleas Bench.
The Judge is an uncompromising Dem
ocrat.
IMPEACHMENT is played out, used
up, gone up a very small spout. A
majority of the Judiciary Committee
of the lower House of Congress, to
whom the subject was referred, declare
that they find no cause for it. How
are the blusterers "blowed out!"
THE Cambria Democracy have re
nominated Col. J. P. Linton for Assem
bly, by acclamation.
THE Lancaster Express , a Radical
sheet says that Thad Stevens had bought
lots in several cemeteries, but finding
that there were not "any of God's col
ored children" buried in them, he can
celled his purchases. A
organ remarks that—"He seems to
think as little of his grave as he does of
his bed."
THE Democracy of Juniata county
have selected Ezra I). Parker for the
State Senate and H. P. M' Williams for
Assembly, subject to the decision of the
district conference 1 .
MB. ROBINSON, M. C. from the Brook
lyn, N. Y., district, who is himself a
Fenian, said, the other day, on the floor
of Congress, that the South suffers inft
nitely greater oppression than Ireland
ever did.
AT an election for School Directors,
in Lancaster city, tho other day, the
Democratic ticket was successful by
600 majority. The Intelligencer sags
that the city is good for 750 majority
for Sharswood. The usual Democratic
majority in that place, is about 200.
MORROW B. LOWRY, the ruffled shirt
philosopher, has been re-noininated
for State Senator, by the Radicals of
Crawford county. He lacks only the
endorsement of his own county, Erie,
to make him the nominee of his party
in the district.
From "The Forum "
TIIE MODEL JII DOE OF PENNSYL
VANIA.
GEORGE SHARSWOOD, L. L. lE,
President Judge of the Distrlet Court for
the City and Count.) of Philadelphia.
BY DAVID PAUL BROWN, Esq.
The Hon..George Sharswood was
born on the 7th of July, 1810, and was
graduated at the University of Penn
sylvania, on the 31st of July, 1828, with
the highest honors, delivering the Greek
salutatory, and manifesting a scholar
ship, of which his unceasing industry
had given an early earnest. In the
month of August, of the same year, he
became a student in the office of Mr.
Joseph R. Ingersoll, and after a severe
application to his studies, was admit
ted to practice on the sth of September,
1831.
Even after Mr. Sharswood's admis
sion, he still blended his classical with
his professional duties, besides giving
some attention to the modern lan
guages, and it may be truly observed
of him, that it has seldom happened
thatsueh youngshoulders bore so wise a
head.
He was not deficient in genius, but
his great quality consisted in rigid and
indefatigable labor. He was a model
for a student. Always thoughtful, yet
cheerful; modest and retiring in his
manners, yet in a moment of exigency
not deficient in just reliance upon him
self. We do not think he could ever
have been an effective advocate. The
turn of his mind was tootranquil to en
joy or to endure the tumult, agitation,
and excitement of jury trials. But in
an argument to the court in banc, up
on a point of law, few men of his
years would have been his equal—cool
calm, collected, he had full control of
that abundant stock of knowledge
which untiring perseverance and in
dustry had enabled him to accumu
late. .
After remaining at the bar some
five years, with about the usual share
of professional business, but with
bright hopes clustering round him. he
was elected to the Legislature, on the
10th of October, 1837, where, it is sufli
cent to say, that he justified the most
sanguine hopes and expectations of his
constituents. On the 9th of October,
1838, he became one of the Select Coun
cil, and on the 29th of June, 1841, was
appointed secretary of the investiga
ting committee of the stockholders of
the Bank <if the United States. On the
12th of October, 1841, he was elected a
gflin to the Legislature, and continued
in that body by another election, on the
11th of October, 1842. Scarcely had his
legislativeservices terminated, when,on
the Bth of April, in the year 1840, he re
ceived the appointment of Judge of the
District Court for the City and Coun
ty of Philadelphia, and on the Ist of
February, in the year eighteen hundred
and forty-eight, became its President.
On the 14th of October, 1851, under the
new Constitution, he was elected by a
large majority to the same judicial posi
tion, which he had previously held from
the Executive and Senate of the State.
He was commissioned on the Ist of De
cember, 1851.
In all those varied and highly honor
able and responsible employments, it
may bejustly said, that he manifested
the most abundant capacity and fit
ness for the duties imposed upon him.
But he more .especially shone in hisju
dicial qualifications. Take him for all
in all, at his time of life, no bench in
Pennsylvania has borne a more un
blemished, more competent, or mote
exemplary incumbent. He is a man
of kind, liberal, and honorable feelings,
just such a man as you might suppose
was born to be judge; and if he holds
out as he begun, and Heaven and his
constituents continue him to his "three
score years and ten," we are mistaken,
or he will furnish the best practical
proof of the folly of legislating judges
out of office, at the expiration of sixty
years.
Since his presidency in the District
Court, Judge Sharswood has been cho
sen Professor of Law in the Pennsylva
nia University, where lie is an invalu
ble acquisition. Apart from this duty
he is engaged in delivering a course of
elaborate lectures before the Commerci
al Institute. And when it is remem
bered that the court in which he pre
sides sits ten months in a year, and is
continuously and laboriously occupied
duringall that time, in every diversity
of trials, certainly no better commenta
ry can be required upon his exhaustless
patience and energy of character.
Rut to glance from the mental to the
personal, Judge Sharswood is about five
feet ten inches high, with a slight stoop
of the shoulders, attributable, probably
to his studious pursuits throughout life.
He has patience, and that—without
which every thing else is nothing
uncompromising honesty, The hon
esty of a Judge, however, is hardly ne
cessary to be referred to, as without it,
no man is to be considered a judge.—
He is only a pageant in the temple of
justice.
Judge Sharswood, may be cited in
support ot our theory, that Judges—all
other qualifications being equal—taken
from the bar before they have been ex
tensively engaged in practice, general
ly discharge their duties more satisfac
torily than those who are hackneyed in
litigation, and therefore take partial or
prejudiced viewsol a case. Unless op
posite sides of the issue exhibit great in
equality in merit and strength, we de
fy any man to preceive, from the de
pertinent of the judge, to what result
his mind inclines. This is a great vir
tue in a judicial officer—nothing is so
unbecoming in authority, as to descend
, from its high calling into the arena of
| professional degladiation, and advance
I gratuitous opinions, and join in a con
fiiet between out-posts, before the mind
entirely grasps the merits of the contro
versy. Counsel may be less observant
of what they say or do, but a judge
should permit no word to escape his
: lips during the progress of a trial, that
I may tend to bias the jury, or throw re
i proach upon one party or the other.
! Words, as we have elsewhere said, are
things,and judicial words are very oper
tive, if not controlling things, upon
the minds of the "sworn twelve," who,
having for the most pait but little
light in themselves, look anxiously for
the least glimmering of it that may be
shed from the bench, and sometimes e
ven convert that light intodarkness.
Judge Sharswood puts his cases, of
i course, very fairly to a jury; he seldom
intrenches upon their rights to deter
mine upon the Ihw, but when he does
he does it with great clearness, preci
sion, and cogency, and so as to be com
prehended by any man of the most or
dinary intelligence. His thoughts are
not only perspicuous, but the language
in which they are clothed is so plain
and unaffected sto prevent all ecjuiv
oeation or misapprehension.

A CARP
FROM TB\T
AMERICAN WATCH COMPANY,
Of Wa/tham, Mans.
This Company beg leave to inform the public
that they commenced operations in 1850, and their
factory now covers four acres of ground, and has
cost more than a million dollars, and employs ov
er 700 operatives. They produce 75,000 Watches
a year, and make and sell not less than one half
of all the watches sold in the United States.
The diflferenoe between their manufacture and
the European, is briefly this : European Watches
are made almost entirely hy liatul. and the result
is of necessity a lack of that unitormity, which is
indispensable to correct time-keeping. Both the
eye and the hand of the most'skillful operative
must vary. But it is a fact that, except watches
of the higher grades, European watches are the
product of the cheapest labor of Switzerland, and
the result is the worthless Ancres. Lepines and so
called Patent Levers—which scon cost more in at
tempted repairs, than their original price. Com
mon workmen, boys and women, tuy the rough
separate parts of these watches from various fac
tories, polish and put them together, and take
them to the nearest watch merchant, who stamps
and engraves them with any name or brand that
may be ordered.
How AMERICAN WATCHES ARE MADE.
The American Waltham Watch is made by no
such uncertain process—and by no such incompe
tent workmen. All the Company's operations,-
from the reception of the raw materials to the
completion of the Watch, are carried on under one
roof, and under one skillful and competent direc
tion. But the great distinguished feature of their
Watches, is the fact that their several parts are
all made by the finest, the most perfect and deli
eate machinery ever brought to the aid of human
industry. Every one of the more than a hundred,
parts of every watch is mado by a machine—that
infallibly reproduces every succeeding part with
the most unvarying accuracy. It was only neces
sary to make one perfect watch of any particular
style and then to adjust the hundred machines
necessary to reproduce every part of that watch,
and it follows that every succeeding watch must
be like it.
The Company respectfully submit their watches
on their merits only. They claim to make
A BETTER ARTICLE FOR THE MONEY
by their improved mechanical processes than can
be made under the old-fashioned handicraft sys
tem. They manufacture watches of every grade,
from a good, low priced, and substantial article
in solid silver hunting cases, to the finest chron
ometer ; and also ladies' watches in plain gold or
the finest enameled and jeweled cases; but the in
dispensable requisite of all their watches is that
they shall be GOOD TIME-KEEPERS. It should
be remembered that except their single lowest
grade named "Home Watch Company, Boston,"
ALL WATCHES made by them
ARE FULLY WARRANTED
by a special certificate, and this warrantee is good
at all times against the Company or its agents.

SCHENCK'S SEAWEED TONIC.—This
medicine, invented by Dr. J. H. Schenek, of Phil
adelphia, is intended to dissolve the food and make
it into chyle, the first process of digestion. By
cleansing the stomach with Schenck's Mandrake
Pills, the Tonic soon restores the appetite, and food
that could not be eaten before using it will be eas
ily digested.
Consumption cannot be cured by Schenck's Pul
monic Syrup unless the stomach and liyer is made
healthy and the appetite restored, hence the Tonic
and Pills are required in nearly every case of con
sumption. A half dozen bottles of the SEAWEED
TONIC, and three or four boxes of the MANDRAKE
PILLS will cure any ordinary cise of dyspepsia.
Dr. Schenck makes professional visits in New-
York. Boston, and at his principal office in Phila
delphia every week. See daily papers of each
place, or his pamphlet on consumption, for his days
of visitation.
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
Sold by all druggists and dealers; price $1 50
