Not only should every Democrat I
have his county newspaper, during the ;
coming campaign,-hut he should like- j
wise make ii a point to furnish his Re- i
publican neighbor a copy. This is
the plan upon which our opponents;
have acted for years, and it is about ;
time that Democrats do something of!
the same sort. NOW, GO TO WORK
and put your Democratic newspaper into |
the hands of every HepubUoan who icill j
read. If you will do this you will j
accomplish more good in six mouths j
than you will b\ any other means in,
six years. Democratic politicians, I
throughout the county, are enabled, by
" the above low terms, to circulate Dem-;
ocratio new-paper- at a very small ;
cost. We appeal to tlietu to see to get- ;
ling up clubs, and to see to it in time. ;
Xow i- the time to sow the seed. Af- ;
ter a little while the lval of passion
and prejudice will beam upon the pub
lic mind in all its interne fierceness, j
and then seed-time will have passed. J
Friends, let us hear from you !
ore xeioiibors.
The Indiana Democrat has been en
larged and greatly improved. It is
now printed on a Montague Power
Press, which, Bro. Hansom says, works
"like a charm." We are glad to note
this evidence of prosperity on the part
of the Democrat, and must say for the
Democracy of Indiana county, that
they show admirable pluck. Success
to them nr.d their excellent organ.
The Iloliidayeburg Regteler has been
purchased by Davicland Jacob Z. Over,
of this place, and will hereafter be pub
lished by them. We wish the firm
succe-s in every thing except- their
politics.
We.have eceived several numbers
of the Bedford Comity i'r€&s. published
at Bloody Bun, this county, by J. C.
Long & Co. The Pre?* makes a very
creditable api>earance and is a good
' digest of the news. We hope it will
be sustained, as a thriving and enter
prising community iike tiiat of Bloody
Run, certainly deserve a local news
paper.
II iT "KM ACMIX !
The preseut S ate Legislature U get
ting some wnpl M.sunt hints from the
Radical pro*. The Delaware Republi
can wants to know why it doesn't ad
journ, and the Hertford Jnguieee, of last
week, nay-,
"The cowardice of the Pennsylvania
Legislature is -a disgrace to the great
Commonwealth."
"Cowardice" i J good : "disgrace" is
better. Hit *em again, boys!
AVE call attention to the correspon
dence of the Pittsburg Commercial,
Radical copied into this issue of the
Oazettis, in regard to the extravagance
of the State Legislature,
"STRICTLY A POLITICAL P VPER.*'
li Tho Devil giok, the Devil a monk would be,
The Devil got well, the devil a lEOuk wes he."
Satan has. taken to preaching. The
Bedford Inquirer , of last week, lectures
us on publishing too many political
articles, "very well written ones, too."
Now, we shall treat our neighbors bet
ter. We do not object to their paper
on account of the number of their po
litical articles, and as to the quality of
them, we are quite sure we have no
right to complain. So long as their
style of writing involves nothing more
dangerous than the chaste and pleas
ant expletives of that famous Fishtco
m<in'x Dictionary tto be had at the In
quirer Hook Store) we shall not be a
larmed. Scarcely an issue o. theirpaper
appears which docs not contain the epi
thet, "Copperhead," or which does not
heap the foulest abuse upon the Demo
cratic party, or which doc- not seek to
misrepresent Democratic officials, or
which dots not approve su h suicidal
measures as the continuance of the
Freed men's Burt au, the keeping-up of a
standing army, the government of the
excluded States by Congress, and (lie
thousand artd one deviltries of Thad.
Stevens an<l his fellow conspirators a
gainst the Constitution. All this is
"strictly political." The editors of
the Inquirer have no more faith in the
justice and propriety <•' these things
titan we have. They would never
have dreamt of advocating them, had
not their party committed itself to
them. But, as th a Inquirer is "strictly
a political paper," it goes the whole
hog, Thad. Stevens, Freed men's Bu
reau, Standing Army, Negro Suffrage
and all. Still we do not complain of
this. Nut at all. Why should we, when
we know that every issue of the In
quirer but proves to its Republican
readers that what we charge upon the
Radical party is true? •
The Inquirer wants to know wheth
er it pays Democrats to be Democrats.
Well, we rather think it pays at least
as well, in this county, as it does Re
publicans to be Republicans. The edi
tors of that paper evidently judge every
body else by their own standard. Be
cause they are selfish, tiny conclude
all mankind must he likewise. Itnev-
er occurs to them that men who cling j
to principle, through good and through j
evil report, amid the storm of war as j
well as in the sunshine of peace, who I
defied the moh, laughed at the bayonet
and dreaded not the prison cell, are
governed by a higher motive than dol- \
lars and cents. The fact i-. the Inquir-'
er men find that they ran not drive
Democrat.- from tiie Right, that they
have been beaten and always will be !
beaten on the issue thev have made,
"
and, that the hope of gaining their
point, by appealing to the selfishness j
of human nature, alone remains to
them. Their political articles have
not been a success. ; ence, they are
slightly indisposed, in that way,, just
now. "The Devil got sick, the Devil j
a monk would be." But, they'll recov-!
er after awhile, and their paper will j
again be filled with slang and abuse, i
"The Devil got well; the devil a |
monk was he."
We cannot refrain from copying the
concluding parts of the Inquirer's ar
ticle. We call special attention to the
following :
"If these views are correct, and we
are led to believe that they are in
ninety-nine cases out of every hundred,
then the course of the Gazette has been
absolutely of no advantage to you, but
on the other hand, downright loss.—
Let us suppose that it. had, during all
this time, consistently advocated an
improved system of Agriculture in ad
dition to its politics, would it not have
had a very beneficial effect upon the
! industrial prosperity of the county?—
j Suppose it had advocated the location
I of iron manufactories in the county as
earnestly as it has advocated politics,
docs any one doubt that we would have
> a large number of these establishment
-1 located here with our facilities ? Again,
i had it paid as much attention to the
: building of a railroad through the
county, as it has to the ejection of Dem
ocrats, from the highest position down
; to township clerk, would our people
. not to-day be enjoying all the advan
i tnges which such improvements would
j bring? Certainly, there cannot be a
| doubt in regard to it."
Now, aren't we somebody? We
i could have under-drained, limed, plas
tered, sub-soiled, elovered, and post
and-rail-fenced this whole county, we
' could have built iron manufactories,
nay, we could have constructed a rail
road through the county, if we had
i oniy let Democrats take care of thein
i selves, and turned our attention to
writing editorials on Agriculture, Fur
. uaces and Locomotives. Does any one
j "doubt it?' What a poor, pitiful, pow
erless concern the- Inquirer is, cornpar
;ed with this machine of ours! That
paper can't build furnaces and con
struct railroads! We can! Hurrah for
: our side! There isonething, however,
j the editors of the Inquirer could do;
they possess the stul! to do it; in tact
j they arc madt? of that sort of ildng;
they could do Agricil'ture a great
service, by devoting themselves to the
! fertilization of the soil.

THE PITTSRURG AT"
VI I.l<E KAILRUAU.
It looks now as if this road would be
built in a short time. The city of Bal
timore has retired its first mortgage
upon the road, for one million dollars,
and has also voted to advance several
millions more. The Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company, it is said,
have concluded to loan the P. & C. an
additional million. Besides these,
there are heavy idividual subscrip
tions by tlie "solid men" of Baltimore.
We are informed that the whole line
will be put under contract within two
months, and the work will be pushed
forward as rapidly as possible.
it is, perhaps, not generally known to
our people, that this road will run a dis
tance of about seventeen miles within
the limits of Bedford county. Yet it
strikes only the extreme Southwestern
corner of the county, and is confined
to a single township, Londonderry.
Nevertheless, the construction of the
road will be of much benefit to the
Southern half of the Western end of
the county, as it will give the people
of that section, a much more accessible
market, and thus enhance the value of
their property.
But, meanwhile, what becomes of
the good old borough of Bedford? A
railroad depot East of us, drains the
county for miles around if, of all the
produce and trade, whilst! the P. & C.
SouthWest of us, will -weepall in that
direction. Ilollidayshurg has long
since monopolized the trade of the
Northern districts of the county, whilst
Cumberland, Md., drains the Southern.
Thus, Bedford, already crippled as
a place of trade, will be left high and
dry, if the townships West of lis once
get their outlet to Baltimore. Now,
we do not make this statement, in or
der to oppose the construction of the
P. &C.R. R. Far be it from us to do
any such thing. For, we are anxious,
almost nervously anxious, that that
road shall be built, and built soon.—
But we desire to call the attention of
the moneyed men, the business men,
the property holders, and the peo
ple generally, in this town of ours, and
in the country round about, to the fact
that if they do not "put their shoulders
to the wheel" and build a railroad of
their own, they might as well sell out
and leave. But, how can we do it?
asks one. You can do it with money
and you have the money. Some of
you can give large sums, others not so \
large and yet others a little. One
hundred thousand dollars will grade]
the road to Bridgeport. You can
mortgage the road for the iron and
rolling-stock. The one hundred thou
sand dollars can he raised , if the* prop- :
er effort be made. But there must be |
unity of effort, concert of action, and
tenacity of purpose. Public meetings,
gaseous speeches," resolutions mild as
milk, with nothing characteristic but
nervous* fear of large corporations,
will not build railroads. A half a doz
en earnest men, with their hearts in
the work, can effect more than all your
hydra-headed meetings. Let those
who believe that the Bridgeport con
nection can be made, meet together,
form a plan of action, and then execute
their plan. We are in earnest about
this matter, and will do our part.
now Aiu: ror. iii:.\i;Ai)i;s?
The Inquirer , of last week, lias the
following:
"Don't you know that the positions
which are not taken up by the crafty
leaders, are given to the weak-kneed
Republieausto buy them up? You may
have served the-party for fifty years
faithfully, hut leave one of this pecu
liar gentry turn up, and he must be
cared for; they know your vote to be
safe, and by flattering the weak-kneed
gentleman, they make sure of his vote
and that, perhaps, of someof his friends,
and, mark it, there is always one of
this cla-s to he bought up. The Repub
licans have done this same thing before
now, but we despise the policy. Firstly,
because it is injustice to those who
have kept tip tho organization for
years, and, secondly, because men
bought up in this way are mere weath
ercocks."
How are you, John Cessna, W. M.
Hall & Co? How are you, renegades,
you who have been hunting office in
the Radical party ever since you left
the Democrats? How are you, "weath
ercocks?"

Special Correpondedco Pittsburg Commercial.
HARRISBURG, PA., March 24, 18GS.
The Senate took upthejfeneral appro-!
priation bill tii"n morning, Senator
Randall, of Schuylkill, in the chair, in
Committee of the Whole, and has been
engaged all day in its consideration in
Committee of the Whole. The Finance
Com mitteeoftheSenate reported sever
al amendments to the biil as it passed
the House. Amongst these amend
ments are the following: Salary of the
Auditor General raised from twenty
three hundred to thirty fire hundred dol
lars; salary of Surveyor General raised
from two thousand to two thousand five
hundred dollars; as compensation lor
his servicers in the sale of the agricul
tural land scrip. The salary of each
messenger in the several departments
was raised from eight to nine hundred
dollars. The Governor is authorized
to employ a temporary clerk at a salary
not exceeding onehnndred and twenty
five dollar, per month. This is an ad
dition to his Private Secretary. The
senate also added a messenger to the at
torney General's office, and attached
six hundred and forty dollars salary
to it. Also made an appropriation ot
eleven hundred dollars for some kind
of Paris clock that is stuck up in the.
office, and a new heating apparatus that
has been introduced at somebody's sug
gestion. Six thousand five hundred
dollars were also added to the tenth sec
tion for the historical department, two
thousand of which is Cor the salary of the
State Historian and the balance for clerk
hire. The salary of the Deputy State
Superintendent of Common Schools
was raised from eighteen hundred to
two thousand dollars. Fifty thousand
dollars were added to the appropria
tion for the soldiers' orphan depart
ment, and one hundred thousand dol
lars taken off iheappropriation to com
mon schools—making the former four
hundred and fifty thousad and the lat
ter five hundred thousand dollars.
The Senate committee raised the
salary of the assist nt and transcri
bing clerks of the Senate and House
one hundred--dollarseach, ami the Ser
geant-al-A rms, Chief Doorkeeper, mes
senger and assistant messenger, Post
master and assistant, each two hundred
dollars. It also added seventeen thou
sand dollars for boilers, and for hospi
tal bathing room and chape! for the
Western Penitentiary, and forty-five
thousand dollars additional for repairs
and alternation of block number one
in the Eastern Penitentiary, making
the entire amount of to
the Eastern Penitentiary sixty-five
thousand, and to the Western thirty
eight thousand dollar . Several other
additional appropriations were made
by the Senate Committee, hut they are
comparatively unimportant. The fore
going are the principal. In commit
tee of the Whole the Senate increased
the salary of the judges of the Supreme
Court, from five thousand fire hundred,
to seven thousand fire, hundred dollars.
Without adding up the several items,
I would suppose the additional appro
priations made by the Senate will a
mount to one hundred and fifty
thousand, if not two hundred thousand
dollars. 1 presume the bill will pass
the Senate finally pretty much as it
passed the Committee of tlie Whole.
The section appropriating twenty-five
thousand dollars to the School for fee
ble-minded children, at Media —which,
by the way, is an increase of nine thou
sand dollars over the amount agreed to
by the House—gave rise to a protrac
ted discussion. Serious charges were
made both in the House, and Senate
in relation to that institution. With
out knowing anything. personally, a
bout the matter, 1 would suggest that
there has been too much smoke about
that institution this session to justify
the belief that there is no fire.
ROBBKRI ES AT CUMBERLAND, MD. —
A series of daring burglaries \v.-re per
petrated at Cutnberlaiul, Md., on tSu 11-
day and Monday nights, the particu
lars of which are thus given in the Alle
gan ian :
Mr. Philip Doerr, occupying a room
on the second floor of the house of Mr.
Cole, North Centrestreet, sustained the
loss of a watch and a small sum of
money, which were taken from his
pants lying near his bedside. Mrs.
George Roebuck, also in the same
neighborhood, had a watch taken from
her bedchamber, which was hanging
immedately over her head. Mr. Mar
tin Herpieh, the proprietor of a small
grocery store, likewise on Centrestreet,
was the unfortunate loser of $BB, taken
from his pocket. he brewery.of Mrs.
Beck was also visited, and here the
parties helped themselves liberally to
beer, but di not disturb the inmates of
the dwelling adjoining. Mr. G. B. \V.
Roper, clerk in the boot and shoe store
of Mr. C. W. Brengle, had a suit of
clothing taken irom near his bed, the
impression in this case being that the
burglars wanted to get possession of
the store key, but in this they failed,
as the key dropped from the pocket of
the coat when they seized it, and was
found in the morning lying on the
chair from which the clothing was re
moved. A set of jewelry was taken
from t lie residence of Mr. John F. John
son, the property of a female member
of his family. Tin dwelling of Mr.
MeCleve, Deeatur street, was also en
tered, but the family, hearing a noise
in the lower part of the house, got up,
when the burglars hastily decamped,
without securing any booty.
CHARGES AGAINST JUDGE UNDER
WOOD. —The Richmond Dispatch of
yesterday contains a letter from John
Hawxhurst, of Alexandria, charging
Judge Underwood with an attempt to
bribe and control the radical vote of
Virginia for Judge Chase for Presi
dent. The matter, we are informed by
telegraph, was prominently before the
convention yesterday, based probably
upon Hawxiiurst'sletter. liavvxhurst
declares that the following took place
at a small private meeting to which
the narrator fiad been Invited:
"Judge Underwood said, 'We can
have money enough it we are in favor
of a certain man tor President.' A si
lence of a few moments was broken by
some one asking, who that man was?
Judge Underwood replied, 'Uha.se, that
he had no money,but Bprague.bad.anrl
would give one hundred thousand dol
lars for the use of the party in the
Btate,' I do not think any one ex
pressed assent or dissent. After a
short embarrassed silence, a still more
embarrassed attempt at conversation,
the company broke up. I was after
ward told that it was understood that
if Chase should become President,
Judge Underwood was to take his place
as G'hier Jw-iiit'r, With all justice to
Chief Justice Chase and tjenaforSprague
1 will here state that i was never sat
isfied that they knew anything of this
offer, believing rather tiiat it came
from the inordinate ambition of Judge
Underwood, who thought to recom
mend himself to the good graces of
Chase, and in this way might possibly
get the nomination to the Senate tor
Chief Justice, or at least continue iiis
almost unlimited control of federal ap
pointments in Virginia.
