An "L. L. D." Candidate
And now the distinguished DOCTOR
of the Republican, is a candidate for
office. The last issue of that 'paper
contains a letter, signed by eight cit
izens of Unionville, and vicinity, iu
which BROWN is nominated for the
Legislature. This letter requests the
Doctor to allow his name to be used,
and to give the signers permission to
'secure your (hie) triumphant election.'
43 . 11 course, BROWN will not be so hard
hearted as to refuse this modest re
quest, especially as the desire of his
heart has long been that he might one
day represent the people of this coun
ty at Harrisburg. Consequently, we
may expect to see his ?t a m e presented
to the Radical county convention, and
then, what a lime there will be I If
Bsosrses friends imagine that the 'ar
istocracy' of Bellefonte—the 'F. F.
V's.' of the Radical party—are going
to permit a 'min - hill' like him to rep
resent them in the Legislature, we tell
said 'friends' they are very greatly
mistaken. There is eternal war be
tween littowN and these people, and
from immemorial time there has been
head and heel bruising among them.
They will oppose BROwN to the death,
and if he has the cournge to defy them,
as we hope he lins, there will be the
biggest Kilkenny cat fight ever seen in
this county.
Not that there is the least danger of
the Radical nominee being elected.
Such a result is simply imnossitile:
hut then Mimi s is not to be out - Toea to
attain the position of a prominent
leader, such as this nomination would
constitute him. Over this letter from
Unionville, there are curses, not loud
hut deep, in the Radical party of Belle
fonte, and the imprecations that arc
being vented upon the devoted head of
the would be candidate for Legislative
honors are enough to make one's hair
stand on end.

The Narrow Gauge
Editors W All 1114• M : 1 wish to say
a few words through the column. of
your good paper r.neernirt our rail
road enterprise. I have long since
admired the tons id your journal, from
the fact that it is so clearly outspoken
on all subjects. regardless of public
lic opinion. We are frequently made
to blush to see men who pretend to be
American citizens .land up and ailvo
rate that which is known to be diamet
rically In oppooltion to their true senti
merits, in consequence of fear or cow
ardice. We believe such to have been
the case at a meeting recently held in
Bellefonte, to consoler the merits of
narrow gauge railroads. It seeme,
after little diarn...ion, narrow gauge
wan adopted. We, thtecitizens of Har
ris township, care nothing about the
proceedings of said meeting, because
we know it was the work of cowards
who tremble in their boots at the
menaces of the Penna. R.ll Co. So far
as we are concerned we want an ordt•
nary gauge road or none, We never
subscribed our money to build s !nar
row gauge road, because we believe it
to be a humbug and so do all others
who Sr. not too cowardly to say so.
In the first place we we n t t o if,.
Penna. R. IL Co., and made a propo
sition which was accepted, and in the
mean time informing 118 how much
money we would have to raise. We
went to work and raised the amount
asked. It was not long however until
we were again informed that there was
not vet ample fonds, but that it would
be reptirvd 01 the areallby townships
to raise tuore than would be necessary
to grade the road through their own
limits, in order to aid where there te

comes to us, though not until it was
believed we were fairly shackled and a
lock put to our mouths, with the story
tha, there is not yet money enough to
grade the road for an ordinary gauge ;
but that we must be satisfied with a
petty narrow gauge through our beau—
tiful valley, which would only be a
mere tributary to the main line and
would require a man more skillful
than BLONDAI, to pass over it with his
wheelbarrow. We consider this a per.
feet outrage and think every man who
has an American heart in his bosom
should remonstrate against it. We
'kre aware that there are many weak.
kneed cowardil among us who are ad
opaque bodies, revolving in railroad
circles only to reflect the opinions of
other men, but have none of their own.
We wish , to be clArli understood that
we don't fear the Penna. B. R. Co.,
neither aro we any of Bon Duridates
dough-faced proselytes, nor do we

build a narrow gauge road, unites com
pelled to do so at the remotest, point
of the law, when we will feel proud
that none can accuse us of cowardice
or of bowing submissively under the
sharp lash of usurpation without ofTer
ing any resistance. If there are, so
many advantages in nagow gauge
roads, it looks mighty strange that all
those grand disteveriee were not made
until the people were hound hand and
foot to be led captives at the will of
the Penn. R. It. Co. They tell us that
a narrow gauge will carry all we have
to take. We are conscious of that fact,
but if things are to undergo a general
revolution, we, also, desire to have a
chance to change our subscriptions
and then we will FCC who are really in
favor of narrow gauge.
