SEYMOUR AND BLAIR CAMPAIGN
MEETING. — The lurycst club meet in;/ of
tin Catttpait/n. On last Saturday even
ing, the Bedford Seymour and Blair
Campaign Club, held a meeting in the
(Hurt room. The- attendance was large,
eveiy seat in the room heing occupied.
TJie tir.-t speaker was William i lartley,
E-q., who for an hour and a half ventil
ated the ruinous policy of tHo Radical
party, and showed beyond contradic
tion that there never could come peace
and prosperity to the country so long
as tlie people permitted them to re
main in pow< r. Mr. Hartley is not a
politician, and only consented to ad
dress liis fellow citizens on this occa
sion, beceause in an emergency like
this, wiiere the result is fraught with
so much good or evil to the country,
every man's voice should be heard for
the truth and right. lie was followed
by Thomas 11. Murray, E-q., of Pierce
ton, liul., who assured the people of
Pennsylvania that Ii is state would elect
that pure statesman, Hendricks, Gov
ernor by at least 25,000 majority, anil
if the people here would do but half
so well, Seymour would have an easy
thing of his election. It. E. Meyors,
in a -liort speech elo-ed the meeting.
The club adjourned with three rousing
cheers for Seymour, Blair and the
whole ticket. The Democratic Band
was present and discoursed it- sweetest
music.

THAT SKUNK.— The local of the lu

I ist week he produced a striking
Jik.ii.-ss <>t lito skuiir.. And such a

county, that he is a yentltinan, we will
b dicve it, not sooner.
DEAD DUCKS. —A Radical in making
a speech recently in Broad Top, said
that one of the important issues in tills
p ilitical contest was the payment of
the Alabama claims! This he uttered
with so much vehemence, that some
of his English friends feared a war;
with their mother country was inevi
table! Poor Rods ! they are afraid a>
death of the living issues of the day,
and talk about evrything else. We
heard of several who were discussing
the rise and fall of Noah's flood !

When the PLANTATION BITTERS
were first made known to the Ameri
can people some seven years ago, it was
supposed that they were an entirely
new thing, and had never before been
used. So far as their general use in the
United States i- concerned, this may
be true; it is also true that the same
Bitters were made and sold in the Is
land of St. Thomas, over forty years
ago, as any old planter, merchant or
sea captain doing business with the
11 'cat Indies will tell you. It is dis
tinctly within my recollection that on
the return of my father (who was a sea
captain, and doing an extensive trade
in the tropics,; he would invariably
have the Bitters among the ship's
stores, and our family sideboard was
never without them. For any sick
ness, it matters not how severe or trif
ling, the decanter of these Bitters, by
a different name, was always resorted
to as a sovereign remedy.

HON. A. K McCLURE, Philadelphia, Solicitor
The Chinese Government having (through the
Hon. Anson Burlingame) conceded to this Com
pany the privilege of connecting the great sea
; ports of the Empire by submarine electric tele
graph cable, we propose commencing operations
in China, and laying dowu a line of nine hundred
miles at once, between the following ports, viz :
Population.
Canton 1,000,000
Macoa 60,000
Hong-Kong 250,000
j Swatow 200,000
Amoy 250.000
j Foo-Chow 1,250,000
Wan-Chu 300.000
Ningpo 400.00H
! Hang Cbean 1,200,000
! Shanghai 1,000,000
Total 5,910,000
These ports have a foreign commerce of $900,-
000.000. and an enormous domestic trade, besides
which wc have the immense internal commerce of
j the Empire, radiating from these points, through
its canals and navigable rivers.
The cable being laid, this eompany proposes
erecting land lines, and establishing a speedy and
j trustworthy means of communication, which must
| command there, as everywhere else, the commu
: nidations of the Government, of business, and of
social life especially in China. She has no postal
system, and her only means nowofcommuuicating
j information is by couriers on land, and by steam
ers on water.
The Western World knows that China is a very
large country, in the main densely peopled; but
few yet realize that she contains more than a third
of the human race. The latest returns made to
j her central authorities foi taxing purposes by the
, local magistrate make her population Four hun
i dred and Fourteen millions, and this is more
likely to he under than over the actual aggregate.
; Nearly all of these, who are over ten years old,
not only can but do read and write. Her civili
zation is peculiar, but her literature is as exten
sive as that of Eurepe. China is a land of teach
ers and traders; and the latter are exceedingly
; quick to avail themselves of every proffered facili
i ty for procuring early information. It is observed
in California that tbe Chinese make great use of
: the telegraph, though it there transmits messages
j in English alone. To-day great numbers of fleet
j steamers are owned by Chinese merchants, and
| used by them exclusively for the transmission of
j early intelligence. If the telegraph we propose
i connecting all their great seaports, were now in
j existence, it is believed that its business would
; pay the cost within the first two years of its suc
cessful operation, and would steadily increase
i thereafter
I No enterprise commends itself as in a greater
degree rcnumerative to capitalists, and to our
whole people. It is of vast national importance
| commercially, politically and evangelically.

! qualifiedly recommended to capitalists and busi
