The Democrats of Bedford county will assemble in MASS MEK KING at the Court House, in Bedford, on MON DAY EVENING, FEB. 8, (Court week.) A full turn out is requested, as busi ness of importance will be laid before the meeting. Several addresses will be delivered. J. W. DICKERSON, Ch'n Dem. Co. Com. FIAT .M STITIAF.. The Inquirer lias published several editorials reflecting upon the extrava gance of its party in the legislature, which seem to lie more particularly leveled at the gentleman who repre sents this county in that body. It is not our province to take up the cudgels for Mr. Longenecker. That is the duty of his friends in his own pr.r ty. When the Inquirer asks for one man to stand up against the corrupt practices of the legislature, and when it suvs, "a very feeble voice might do so much as this and show the people who are responsible," it becomes the duty of the political friends of Mr. Longenecker to clear him of the impu tation that he is not the man to resist the dishonest schemes of the majority and that be is not the voice to "show the people who are responsible." But we would like to know why this one man is to deserve special blame? The increase of the number of pasters and folders and other "officers" of the legislature, was made a. parly measure by the radical majority in the two houses. The lash of the caucus was applied to every refractory member and the resolution increasing the force of parters and folders, etc., was put through under the whip and spur of the party leaders. Was Mr. Longen ecker to vote against his party on this question? Doubtless he should ha\e done so. We would have been grati fied if he had. But the whole radical side of the house voted for the resolu tion, and Mr. Longenecker, taught in the school of unflinching opposition to everything democratic, of course was found voting with his own party and against the Democrats. His vote was wrong, hut the whole radical member ship voted as did Mr. Longenecker. Now, therefore, we are glad to find that the Inquirer is inclined to blame its party as well as the individual mem ber at whom it aims its denunciations, it says, "Where none object, all alike are guilty." That is to say, Mr. Long enecker and the entire radical party in the legislature are alike guilty. But when the ides of October come, the Inquirer will be found battling as usu al to elect the verv same sort of men to the legislature as those who now control that lody. Mark the predic tion ! DIOIOCK VTU' MEETISU. We call attention to the call of the Cuairman of the Democratic County Committee, published in this issue, for a meeting of the Democracy to be held in the Court House, on Monday cve n iug of the coming court week. Busi ness of importance to the party will he transacted by the meeting, and we hope, therefore, that there will l>e a full attendance. A Governor, Judge of the supreme Court, and an impor tant county ticket are to he chosen next fall, and it behooves the friends of the Democratic cause to see to it that they enter the contest under prop er standard-bearers and with perfect organization. New York and New Jersey have been redeemed by the election of Democratic Governors.— Let Pennsylvania be placed side by side with them in the list ol regener ated states. NOT satisfied ,v ilh the enormous bur den of debt now piled upon the shoul ders of the people, the Radicals have ordered, received, and paid for plan.- for a new building for the War Depart ment, which w ill cost not less than two million of dollars—the building we mean, not the plans. It strikes us very forcibly that if the present build ings were sufficient for the business of the department during the entire war, they ought to answer ali its purposes now, and for years to come, m >ry es pecially in view of the fact that the army is to tie cut down to the peace standard shortly. JAMES A. LAY \UI> and Thomas J". Layard, father and son, were elected United States Senators fjom Delaware the other day ; the father to fill an un expired term, and the son for a full term of six years. This is the first instance of the kind on record, we be lieve, and attests how the noble ser vices ofthe Layards are appreciated by the gallant Democracy of little Delaware. EXITED STATES SENATORS. Hon. Jtfhu Scott was elected United •States Senator, by the Legislature of this State, on Tuesday. The lienio crats voted for Hon Win. A. Wallace. In the Senate the vote stood, Scott 17, Wallace 18; In the House, Scott 61, Wallace 38. The Legislature of Delaware elected James A. Bayard United States Sena tor, to serve until March tth, and his son, Thomas F. Bayard, to serve six years from that date. The Legislature of Maine elected Hannibal Hamlin, laying Morrill on the shelf. The Democrats voted for A. G. Gould. New York elected Governor Fenton, shelving Morgan. The Democrats vo ted for Senator Murphy. Missouri elected Schurz, the infidel, the Democrats supporting John Phelps. Sumner has been re-elected from Massachusetts. Minnesotta has re-elected Ramsey, and Michigan the drunken Chandler. In Indiana the regular caucus nomi nee, Cum back was defeated, and Hon. D. I>. Pratt chosen. The Democrats supported Hendricks the present Sen ator. Hon. John F. Stockton, who a few years ago was voted out of his seat in the Senate by the Radical Jacobins, has again been elected from New Jersey. J. H. LONG EN K'KASSIRTX A 1.. WASHINGTON, Jaauary 19. In the Senate, a memorial was pre sented from Maryland asking for uni versal suffrage -that is, to allow both whites and blacks to vote at all elec tions. After the introduction and re ference of several bill-, fhe copper tar iff bill was taken up, when a lively de bate ensued, in which Messrs. Viekers and White, of Maryland, took an ac tive part. The bill was amended and then passed. The House passed the bill to preserve the purity of elections in the several Territories. WASHINGTON, January 20. In the Senate, bills were introduced to reorganize the grade of general officers in the army, and for the reduc tion of the military force. The bill to reorganize the general officers of the army retains the general at the same pay ; makes three lieutenant generals, at reduced pay; nine major generals, at reduced pay; abolishes the briga diers, and provides that in time of war brigades shall be commanded by col onels, selected for merit. The bill of Mr. Sherman, in favor of the proposed charter by Congress of a railroad through to New York, was taken up, and led to an interesting debate. Sen ator Whyte, of Maryland, made an able speech In opposition to the bill, and on the general subject of tlie pow er of Congress to charter rail-roads in States. He read a letter from Gov. Bowie, president of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad, confirming the fact that the road is to be completed to Washington by the Ist of January, 18- 70. The last annual report of the com pany, made in September, 1868, Bates that the contract (allied for theconstruc tion of the road to Upper Marlboro' by the time above stated. The House passed a bill to restrict and regulate the frankiogprivilege, and also a bill removing political disabili ties from several citizens of Virginia and other Southern States. WASHINGTON, January 21. In the Senate, Mr. Sherman, from the finance committee, reported a sub stitute for the bill amending the national currency act. The "air-line" railroad bill was taken up, amended, and discussed at considerable length. Mr. Viekers of Maryland, made an able speech in opposition to the power of Congress to charter. The section providing for railroads to Cleveland and Cincinnati was stricken out, so that the bill only provides for a road from Washington to New York. An a mendment, however, was also adopt ed that the Baltimore and Potomac railroad should form a part of the air line road to New York. < )ther amend ments were pending at the hour of ad journment. In the House, a bill was passed pro viding for theappointment of midship men in the Naval Academy from the Southern States. It provides that members of the present Congress may make nominations for their respective States prior to May, 1869, in eases where congressional elections do not take place until later than that period. The contested election from Missouri was debated at length, and resulted in declaring that Mr. Anderson, the sit ting member, and not Mr. Switzler, the contestant, was entitled to his seat. WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. The Senate to-day was prolific of im portant and able speeches, but barren of a single act of legislation. The moring hour was extended to 2o'clock in order to allow M< ssr. Frelinghuy sen and Morton respectfully to assail and defend the hitter's bill prohibiting States from taxing railroads per capita on passengers. This disposed of, the Airline Railroad bill came up, and Sen ator Do.,little delivered a long, elo quent, and very powerful speech a gainst it. Not so much against the bill itself as agaist the whole system of extra-constitutional legislation, of which the measure is a specimen.— Then, speaking to the bill, he so thorougnly reviewed the speeches of Messrs. Sherman and Morton that he had them continually on their feet in attempted reply. Mr. Doolittle's speech, in its whole scope, is esteemed the ablest of the session, if not in his lifetime. The galleries were crowded and attentive to the last degree while he spoke. The Senate then inconclu sively debated whether to agree to the conference committees' report relating to Registers in Bankruptcy taking testimony in eases of contested elec tions, and then adjourned, in order to stave off an executive session, which several Senators were anxious should be held. The House to-day look up tlie bill granting additional subsidies to the Kansas Pacific Railway, but came to no vote. The lobby says they will carry the day when the time comes. Mr. Barnes, of New York,attempted to report a bill to prevent the banks from locking up greenbacks, but a single ob jection rflied it out, and it remains in the Committee on Banking and Cur rency. The day's proceedings were closed with the Congressional funeral, in heavy manuscript, of the late Mr. Hinds, M. ('. from Arkansas. WASHINGTON, January 2d. In the Senate, to-day, resolutions of the New York Chamber of Commerce were presented protessting against any further extension of the bankrupt law. Mr. Hendricks submitted an amend ment to be acted on when the joint resolution proposing an amendment to the constitution comes up. It pro vides that no amendment she." be con sidered ratified by any State Legisla tures unless some of the members shall have been elected after such amend ment shall have been proposed by Con gress. A resolution was offered re moving persons holding civil offices in Virginia and Texas who cannot take the oath prescribed by act of Congress. The air-line railroad bill was taken up and debated at some length. In the House a bill was introduced authorizing married women in the District of Columbus to possess proper ty in their own right. The constitu tional amendment in regard to suffrage was called up, and Mr. Bout well made a speech in advocacy of the measure. The amendment was ordered to be printed. MM S IV KKIEF. A destructive fire broke out at Troy, Pa., on last Sunday morning which raged for hoprs before it was arrested. Eight stores, the bank and Troy house were burnt to the ground. The tiro wa-first discovered in the rear of B. M. Leonard's dry goods store. The loss is estemated at $100,006. Secretary McC'ullough recently Issued an order discharging all negro messen gers in the various departments of the Treasury. His intention was to sup ply their placets with ex-soldiers. The heads of bureaus, however, waited up on him in a body and objected so strong ly, that he was compelled to rescind the order. Queen Victoria is making money in stock raising. One ai.imai she recent ly sold for $i 10 and others at an aver age of §IOO., The Centra! Pacific Railroad has reached a point four hundred and eighty-one miles east of Sacramento. General Grant thinks the proposed inauguration ball unnecessary and wishes it to he dispensed with. The Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias is in session at Philadelphia. The Order numbers 40,000. The New York Chamber of Com merce ha- not been able to solve the question how to return to specie pay ments. George Wordill was murdered and his wife terribly cut by their nephew at < laremounl, N- IL, Monday night. The latest proposition in Chicago is to bring all the railroads into the city by means of underground tunnels. Hon. I). S. Pratt has been elected United Btates Senator from Indiana. Mrs. Twitched has been acquitted. l'OliKUi.N NEWS ITEMS. Up to the HLh inst. nothing had been heard at Madeira of the thirty-nine missing passengers and crew of the wrecked steamsh ip Ilihernia, who were to have been landed there. The story of their rescue is now considered a pure fabrication. The passport regulations are being | enforced at Havana with great strin geney. and passengers from the United States have been delayed for five hours ; after the arrival of the steamer. A hotel at River du Loup, Canada, [• was destroyed by tire yesterday and thrpe children and one man were burn ed to death. - South American advices via New | York confirm the cable despatches in relation to the route of the Paraguay ans and the occupation of Viletta by I the allies.

The Cuban insurgents recently at tempted to burn the city of Manzilla, but were repulsed by the garrison. A frightful massacre of the whites by the natives at Poverty Bay, New Zealand, is reported. The Mikado of Japan has issued a proclamation announcing that peace reigns throughout the land. The revolutionistsare gaining ground everywhere in I lay ti. The Government of Japan is much • troubled financially. The Whippingpost in England. At Leeds, on the 4th instant, three men, who had been convicted of garote : robberies, received twenty-five lashes eat h with a cat-'o-nine tails, in theeen ; tral hall of the borough jail. A new ; triangle much stronger than the one hitherto in use, was employed and the prisoners were secured to it so firmly | that the struggles of two of them scarcely caused the least vibration in i the solid timbers. The first man flog j ged was John Edwards, aged thirty j six, who took the first two or three | strokes of the cat very coolly, but the fourth elicited a scream of "O!" and dreadful groans and howling proeeed j ed from him until he had received sev ■ en teen of the whole twenty five lashes. ; At the end of twelve strokes a see i ond jailer handled the eat. For the | last half-dozen lashes lie was perfectly quiet, and when free walked firmly ' hack to his cell. Joseph Robinson was ! the next delinquent brought to the i whipping post. He was full of fear ! from the first. Not only did he groan j deeply, hut he exclaimed despairingly, | "Stop off," "Murder." "Pull me oil', and I'll never do it again." He show ed throughout more feeling than either lof his fellow garoter-;. When he was unloosed lie fell into the arms of the attendants, and crawled back to his cell. The next prisoner was Solomon I Robinson, aged nineteen, who went to i the ordeal with evident determination to put on an appearance of bravado. Though the youngest of the victims he was infinitely the most self-possessed. Ie never uttered a sound from the first stroke to the last. _____ it is reported that Baron Gerolt, | Prussian minister, and Secretary Se : ward are at present engaged framing a | treaty between the United States and ! Prussia for the ben fit of emigrants i coming here from that part of Europe, jlt is proposed to station in New ork j a Prussian agent, who, in conjunction j with ;> designated officer of this gov- I eminent, and in correspondence with j a board of commissioners, shall pro tect the interests of Prussian subjects j and save them from many dangers to which they might otherwise be ex- I posed. We believe we have before alluded to the fact that Geu. Grant is admitted to be worth $300,000. But eight years ; ago he was not worth one dollar. So, in eight years, he has absorbed $300,060 of the public money. How many poor men send their children to bed hungry, ; for having to spend their earnings to I pay the interest on this money, which , has gone into Grant's pockets'? PI.UIODU.VKS. THE ODD GUARD KOK FEBRUARY. — The high tone and vigorof thissterling l>i mineral ic Magazine, which was so marked in the January number, is still more apparent in the present issue. THE OI.D GUARD wears well, not only sustaining the reputation which its six year's publication has won, but it improves like good wine, the older it grows. The February issue is replete with political, literary, and misoelane ous matter. "Religious Inequality of Human Races," by the Editor, is es pecially worthy of atttention. "The Cub of the Panther," by W. Gilniore Simrns, Esq., keeps up its interest. "Forgotten English Poets," "The First Edition of Shakespeare," and "Mo hammed as prophet, are readable, and the Book and Editor's Tables were never better. Single copies, 25c.; $3.00 per annum. Van Evrie, Horton &Co., 102 Nassau street, N. Y. THE LADY'S FRIEND FOR FEBRUA RY.—A beautiful steel engraving, "Yes or No," illustrating a story by Miss Douglas, leads off the February nuni of this charming magazine. Then fol lows the usual large and elegant Fash ion Plate; and a graphic engraving of "Detective Butterby Bumming up the Points of the case." This latter is an illustration of Mrs. Woods new story.

Ever since the establishment of a govern ment mint, each successive director has tried his hand at the matter,* and it may safely be said that the United States boasts a greater variety cf small coin than any nation on the face of the earth. We are glad to learn that the House Committee on Coins have de cided, and will, next week, report in favor of adopting new coins of nickel an 1 copper in place of the present two, three, and live cent pieces. The de vices on the new coins will be the same as on the old ones—the difference in other respects will bo in the numerals, size, and weight, fins YEAR ASII THE METHODISTS. —The year 1860 is destined to he the most important in the annals of Amer ican Methodism. During the year the people will be called upon to decide wii ther or no they will accept the measures proposed to them by the General Conference, for the admission of lay representatives to that assembly and the Annual Conferences. It is al so an important fact that a new con stituency has been created by the late (iuneral Conference; all mem hereof the church over twenty-one years of age, whether men or women, will be eligi ble to vote upon this question. INTERESTING TO FARMERS.—' The Commissioner of Internal lie venue has decided that farmers have no right to have their grain manufactured into flour in any manner, without paying a license t<> the Government, and if they do, they are liable to the penal ties provided by law. We mention the fact for the benefit of those who may be interested in knowing it. Day by day the people are becoming more and more acquainted with the face of the tax collector, and we are growing more familiar with the ramifications of the Internal lie venue law. SMAIJL FKUIT WINKS.—TO make good wine from blackberries, strawber ries, rasberries, currants or gooseber ries, is a simple process. Mash the fruit fine in a gallon of boiling water, to eacii gallon of fruit, add four poun is of sugar, and, after standing twenty four hours, strain and put into a cask auil deposit in the cellar. If, after fer mentation, it should be racked off' and corked up in bottles, all the better; but it will do to rack it into another cask, in which it will keep very well though on lap for the year. The cost of this wine, including a fair price for the berries, will be about thirty-five cents per gallon. POSTAL K STAMPS.—. Complaints arc at present madethat the postage stamps now in use arc very carelessly prepares!. !t is asserted that the mucilage is very poor, and that theputiuturing machine by which tho stamps, when in sheets, are preparer! for ea-y separation, has boon so far increased in size that an un seemly wide Ijorder detracts largely from its appearance, is left about the stamp. ___________________ Plantation Bitters, combine rare med icinal virtues witii a delicious aroma, and a flavor grateful to the palate.
