John Cessna held a meeting in the

Court lasted till Sunday morning
the last verdict being rendered be

Our friend Jones, who is an inveter

John Mosser, Sr., of Todd township.

JaT week. He was shoveling snow,
and complained of being unwell, and
before he could be conveyed into the
house, he expired.
John Cessna, in his late speech, said,
" The I>enaocrats always opposed war
measures." lie had reference no
doubt to the time when he said that
"unless Lincoln withdraws his eman

a failure." He was a so-called "Cop
perhead" then.
There are thousands of kegs of
'Glade butter' unsold in the eastern mar

used for home consumption, if it could
have been bought at a reasonable
price.
The Fulton Democrat has arisen from
its ashes greatly improved in appear
ance. It has added four columns of
reading matter, and is now a paper of
which the gallant democracy of'little
Fulton" may be proud, and one
which merits and should receive their
hearty support.
St Valentine's Day was a failure
hereabouts. We did not see a single
missive, comic or sentimental. Sigh
ing maidens and love sick swains neg
lected to transmit their tokens of love
to each other. Perhaps the miserable
weather of Monday dampened their
ardor and drowned their affections.
Who knows?

THANKS. —We are under many obli
gations to those ot our subscribers who
have come to our relief by paying the
amount of subscription due us. There
are, however, a great many to whom
bills have been sent, who have not yet
responded to our appeal. Now in or
der to give such the advantage of the
reduction which we promised those
who would promptly pay their indebt
edness, we have concluded to extend
the time to Saturday, the 12ih day of
March, next. All who pay on or be
fore that date will be entitled to the
reduction noted on the bills sent.
Again we tender many thanks to those
who have paid us, and hope that those
who have not, will see the propriety of
doing so soon.
THE WEATHER.—The weather for
the last week has been m changeable
as the hues of the chameleon. Rain,
then fair weather, then snow aud a
thaw, and a freeze, gave us all sorts of
weather. On Sunday last we had an
old fashioned snow storm, and that
night and on Monday and Monday
night we experienced the coldest
weather of the season. Gewilikens!
how cold it was! Of course, ice storers
were delighted, and what made others
shiver, proved comfortable to them.
As we write—Tuesday—everybody is
busy as bees, gathering the ice crop for
next summer's warm weather. Those
who imagined they had a monopoly
of the refrigerating substance, have
learned how easily the clerk of the
weather can knock their calculations
into smithereens. Ice-cool lemonades
will not be such an expensive luxury
j sifter all during the heated term.
"OUR member" has been heard from
at last. He announced to his handful
of admiring constituents on Tuesday
night of court, that, "I—" ego, me,
myself—"had the honor of proposing
an amendment" —think of it ! an
amendment. Which said aforesaid
amendment is to do the business, as
declared by the author "his OWD self.
Copyright secured according to the
laws of Congress in such case made and
provided. If the before mentioned,
aforesaid said amendment becomes a
law—and what loii mind dare doubt
it?—oid women are to be thrown into
incurable hysterics, and timid youths,
upon attaining majority, will instinc
tively jump into the radical harness
and vote for "our member," and
"sich;" ail by virtue of the wonderful
amendment aforesaid. Cracky! what
fun we loil fellows will have!
CESSNA'S POW-WOW. —The radical
meeting on Tuesday night was a flzzlw
in the fullest and broadest sense of the
word. "Our member" made a speech,
and it w as the same old "Mother Hub
bard" that we have listened to a hun
dred times. All the rodomontades of
Cessna are as similar as two drops of wa
ter. The same ranting, blu-tering and
blowing; the same prating of ioilty
and of deeds of valor in which he, like
Falsiaff, has slain his scores of "men
in buckram," is giv n to his audience.
On the occasion of Cessna's last ha
rangue we imagined ourselves in the
veritable china shop, with the infuria
tad Taurus tossing demolished crock
ery-ware about our devoted head, and
we were obliged to give our nose an
impulsive twitch before we were able
to realize the situation. After all it
was but "our member," tickling the
fancies—what a pleasant phrase!—of
the "trooly loil" to induce them to re
nominate him for Congress. "Only
th is and nothing more." O! bow well
does John understand the art of man
ipulating men into his support. How
he subdue men and factions who dare
attempt to oppose his political aspira
rations! Truly, be is monarch of all
the radical camp. All things must be
subservient to his aims and ends. In
this respect alone has be great forte.—
His loyally is a myth, his patriotism a
dream, but they are "a good enough
Morgan till after the election."
It is not necessary to add that Cess
na's resolution endorsing himself was
"read and approved," by the few who
bow the knee to this radical Baal.
But the people will have something to
say hereafter.
READING THE DEATH WARRANT.
—The death warrants for the Hunting
don murderers have been prepared and
read to the prisoners. The perpetra
tors of the inhuman crime have but
few days more to prepare to leave this
scene of action. The execution takes
place on Wednesday the 9th day of
March, next. The Huntingdon Moni
tor, says:—
.About three o'clock Saturday after
noon, Sheriff Neely, in company with
a few witnesses, visited the prisoners
and read the warrants. Lodenburg
was visited first. He seemed much
moved during the reading and when
the Sheriff had finished remarked:
"It is all right, Sheriff. I aru willing
to die. lam not guilty; I said this
first and will say it last If they hang
me it is all right. It is against the
— 1 - - * ill HU _j 'll!MpiMlijbiir.Miuu*iWiwttWiiWßi'wiiijiw'r*^?"JL-JLa, -1^ —
33r5jfov5( 53£tjfaF$L pa>
Bible; I know what is in it." He was
apparently much affected, and seemed
to fully realize his terrible condition.
Bohner's cell was then visited and
the warrant for his death read to him.
At its conclusion he replied, apparently
very unconcerned "All right." "All
right." The Sheriff replied it is just
three weeks from next Wednesday,
when Bohner replied "I know it.
We understand that both the con
demned have written a history of their
lives, but as yet neither have given out
a copv of it. We suppose the execu
tion wiil not take place till one or two
o'clock of the fatal day, and that but
few will be admitted.
COCRT PROCEEDINGS.—But few
cases were disposed of at court, last
week. The Commonwealth list was
unusually small, which must be taken
as a healthier condition of public mor
als. The Grand Jury was not organi
zed until Monday afternoon, and, in
the absence of the regular foreman, the
Court appointed William Hartley, as
foreman. On Tuesday the Grand Jury
was dismissed. But two civil cases
were tried by juries. The following
cases came up in the Quarter bessioDS.
Commonwealth vs Peter Kramer.
Surety of the Peace on oath of Wm.
Karns. Case heard and dismissed at
the cost of Prosecutor.
Same vs George Troutman. Selling
liquor to minors. Found Guilty. Mo
tion for new- trial filed and case contin
ued to April Term.
Same ts W. W. Snyder. For. and
Bas. Guilty. Motion in arrest of judg
ment and for new trial. Case contin

The follow ing cases were tried in
the civil list-
Ephraim Longenecker and Jacob S.
Bossier vs the Township of Middle
Woodberry. Appeal by Plaintiffs from
Auditor's, settlement. Verdict for the
Plaintiffs. Motion for new trial filed.

Ax ARTICLE OF TRUE MERIT.—
"Rrown's Bronchial Troches" are the
most popular article in this country or
Europe for Throat Diseases and
Coughs, and this popularity is based
upon real merit, which cannot be said
of many other preparatious in the
market which are really but weak im
itations of the genuine Troches.
About a dozen converts to Mormon
