investigation before P. S. Noon, Esq.,
Commissioner appointed by the court for
that purpose. Almost every citizen v,of
the township has been .subpoenaed, and .it'
is expected that ; . some two weeks will be
consumed in the examination ofwitn esses,
-arguments, &c.- The opinion prevails that
the entire vote -of that township will .be
thrown‘out, the charge of fraud being
.Ukely tobe lf this be done,
-the opposition will gain-an Assemblyman,

directly in the neighborhood of a large grave
yard (whiohbythe way made it look natural and
convenient.) I next came to Pekin, with her
many stores and confectioneries, in almost any
o£ which we. could find liquors of all kinds, in
barrels, to casks, to flasks, to'bottles and in
tumblers, standing ready, wiping Md v waiting,,
to <be absorbeddjy ikitHOUt-full, by any and
everybody. A great many drunk people are
found in' this town ; on some occasions thO Mar
shal takefe a drank man (against Ms will) throws
Mm in Ms wagon and starts him out of town.—
Some timC ago I was traveling a short distance
from this town (PektoJ-whdovertook a team.
It was standing on the road, and on enquiring,
V found that the driver had been drank, fell out
of Ms waigon and broke Ms arm. At this mo
ment the hqlf drunk father-in-law came up, took
Mm and put him in his own (the old mop's) wag
on and took him back to town, and Uum started
for his w[e who lived about seventeen miles
from towns. The next-place is; Wesley City, with
seven dwelling houses, r one storehouse, one
Tavern and another large' Distillery.; Here
some time ago, there lived a inan whoHmade a
practice of steading cattle.;■ The owner of the cat
tle proceeded to stop such carrying on, by sim
ply shooting the man, after, which there was
hotMng more either'said cr done.
Next is Peoria. When yet a considerable dis
tance from the town; I saw several towering
chimnies, which 1 thought at first sight were
built up from as many Iron manufactories, but
on a nearer approximation 1 found they were
unanimously from JDutilieria and oil in opera
tion, which caused.the town to present a cloudy
and-smoky appearance. On entering the town,
we saw pictured in glowing colors; the effects of
those towering works. There on Main street
we saw tenbarrels of wMakey; yonder on Wash
ington street we say nine barrels of alcohol, (for
mechanical purposes of course),and like Pekin,
her store possessed it in every shape, form and
quality. On Water and Duke streets we say
seventy -four barrels of good purified, clarified,
rectified, superfine rye Whiskey. Is this all for
mechanical purposes?’ if-it is we most admit
that there are a great many mechanics in this
country, although in taking a survey of the
country we find that the majority, of people are
farmers. But be it os it may, we tMnk that
those Distilleries and their effects upon the peo
ple Where they ana located,, speaks yolumes in
favor of their being a drinking community.
And what is this community drinking? It is
a well-known fact among: farmers, that there
wns a great quantity of rotten corn this spring,
and it is as Well known, that when they received
sixty cents for good- corn they received (at the
, Distilleries) fifty cents for rotten com, of which
a great quantity of this liquor is made, and .con

For the Altoona Tribune.
Messrs.' Editors:— An article appeared at
the Head of your local column of last week’s
issue, with the caption, “ curious case of deaf
ness cured;” which has- been the subject ofj
considerable remark about: town. The case and .
its treatment have been detailed with snch care
ful minuteness and precision, as to point out the
scarce, of the information, and the astonishing
result of of remedy duly em
blazoned. Certainly it is expected that great
ingenuity and skill are to be attributed to the
discoverer of this novel remedy. Dr. Christy, we
are told, was called to the cose, and “ made use
of every means known to medical men" to restore
,the hearing, bat without .-avail. 'As a last re
sort, after having set the battery of his brain to
work, os all original thinkers and discoverers,
who have exhausted all recorded knowledge, ore
wont to-do—as a last resort, the brilliant scin
tillation of the highly charged machine, he con
cluded to try electricity; and the result is her
alded forth as-,it wonderful triumph of mind over
diseased dfotter; “the benefits of which," it is said,
“are beyondvalue o/whickJ’ wo
are todl, be , The “benefits”
to flow from fiahklin'B demonstration, of the
identity of ligh'tmng and electricity, might he
“ calculated,*?the practical application of his
discovery, in the lightning rod, might be Calcu
lated, the practical application of the same elec
tricity by Morse, to the telegraphic wires, might
be estimated —hut the “benefits” and “?alue” of
this vaunted application of electricity, by a fc&r
by six battery, to the ears of a man who bad
been deaf for two whole weeks, and upon whom,
in those two weeks,: V MI- the' 'means known to
medical men,”, and. .the accumulated experience
of three thousand yean bad _ been expended in
vain, cannot be “ estimated! 1 or “calculated.”
Now, Messrs. Editors, it would not, knowing
ly, pluck a single leaf from the'well earned lau
rels of a trne victor! Put the history of medi
cine records and reveals' so many “ false facts,”
so much pretentious ignorance, so many arro
gant claims to extraordinary discoveries, so
much inflated egotism," that the' duty is deyol*
ved upon euery true utomber of the profession
to contribute hhr' mite'of effort; to prevent the
farther accamjtiatiftn pf such excrescences up on
the body medlar., With this end in view, and
that the public Way khohrlhat this boasted ap
plication ls ns old, almost, as the
discovery itself, I.nddoco the fol
