AMERICAN REPUBLICAN TICKET. ;
The Atnerienn Republican meeting in the i
Court House on Monday night last, was a iargp i
all.] enthusiastic one. John R. Jrdan was
chosen Pnsi.lcnt, ami John H. Filler, Secre- |
urv. After the object of the meeting had
been stated, the following ticket was nnaoi- j
tnotis!y nominated for the support of the party !
in this borough.
We call en all our friends to turn out, and
elect it: they have the power if they will only
exercise if.
JRNE OF ELECTION.— George It. Oster.
INSPECTOR. —It. Dc Charms Barclay.
CONSTABLE. —Simon Nuu®.
ASSESSOR. —James McMullen.
ASSISTANT ASSESSORS. —John Taylor and J
John R. Jordan.
SCHOOL DIRECTORS.

CHIEF BCUOESS —P. H. Shires.
ASSISTANT BURGESS. —John J. Luther.
TOWN COUNCIL. —Jacob Smith and J C.
Ki*cr.
HIGH CONSTABLE.—Jacob Over.
CLERK— John B. Holm.
I: will he seen from the above that no notti
ir.ition was made for School Directors. Ihis
i. in consequence of the ci'izens of our town
being divided, as to the expediency of build
ing school houses. One portion are in favor
ot u single hou®e in tiie centre or some other
eligible part of the town, and the other in fa
vor of three building® 011 tbe union plan, one
in the eastern, another in the western, and the
other in the central part of the town. the
ticket in favor ot the 01,0 building is trancis j
Jordan and "Valentine Steckman: the other is i
John Arnold and John H. Rush,—one on each
of the latter tickets belonging to opposite par
ties.
GREAT EXCITEMENT.
Tbe ctt sens of this town are now greatly
excite ion the subject of Common Schools.—
Several meetings have already been held, and ■
another was called for last nigh', at which a
eorouiit'.ec was to make report of the cost and
> xredicney of the different plans—one for a
single large union school house, and the other
fur three smaller one®, iu different parts of the
town. Two tickets have been formed, irre
spective of party, and according to the deci
sion of the vote to-day will depend the resul'—
n.® the present houses are unfit for use.
It wiil be remembered that last summer the
Burgess and Town Council passed an ordi
nance against allowing hogs to run at largo io
tbe Borough. A strong party is now in favor
of abolishing this act, and in favor ot allowing
the hog- equal privilege* with the better citi
zens. This party has also uoiuinated a ticket,
irrespective of party. We go io for a free
fight. "Let 'er rip"—"root hog or die!"—
say we.
GOING WEST.—Mr. John Nycutc, Jr.,acd
family, are now in this plane, on their way to
Illinois. They are accompanied by Mr. Jacob
Snell and Air. Nelson Frazsv, with tbeir fami
lies, about twenty persons in all. Sir. Nycum
has along with him some five or six brood
mares, splendid specimens of the stock of Bed
ford County, for which we are becoming quite
famous. They will repay him well for the
trouble of taking them with him. We are sor
ry to part with these gentlemen, at they are
among tha most substantial citizens of our
county, but they have the best wishes of our
people for their future prosperity.
PACKED OUT. —The Gazette makes a clean
back out, in the last number. It cannot an
swer the withering article of the Fulton Demo
crat, and therefore considers discretion the bet
ter part of valor! It cannot defend its course
in placing among the proceedings of a County
meeting of its own party a Resolution which
was not passed ! A paper that would be guil
ty of a gross fraud like this, is a fit instrument
to advocate the bogus Lecompton constitution.
Rut what confidence can its party have in its
statements in the future! That's the ques
tion.
The nigger organ is informed that the prop
osition we toade to it was not accepted at the
time, and then wo made another proposition,
*hich it has not yet aooepted. W6 "broko no
pledge," and as it has not acoepted our last
proposition, it can have all the espital it can
make out of it.

SUFFERINGS ON A SLAVER.
The following is an extract from a letter to j
the London Tines, dated from tbo British
Cruizcr Sappho, off Loando, September 29,
1857- It reveals a sbockiug incident io tus
prosecution of the accursed slave trade.
"Ou the morning of the 18th inst., in a
thick mist with rain, we closed with a schooner:
while boarding her the weather cleared, nnd a
large ship was seen close to the laui. Direct
ly our boat* returned, we made all sail io
chase, the ship making all sail to avoid us,
and the chase became vc-ry exciting. The
captains said we were gaining, and so they
rnu-t have tho't ou board the ship, as he tacked
tn shore and we after bim; thcu he bore away,
runnipg along the edge of the surf, and by
help of his large sails was drawing ahead.
By this time we were sure be was one of the
large Aoierican slave ships, and wo feared lie
would escape if he got eearoom, so the captain
took a boat well manned and armed and pul
led to windward io cut him off, and he would j
be obliged to tack off snore; another boat yv is
sent to leeward, the master, the only officer on
board, being left in charge. Tbo ship was not
more thau a mile aud a half distant, close to
the surf. Seeing the trap laid for bim, and
that he could uot escape, bv ran bis ship ashore.
We anchored in four fathoms; the master took
tbe whale boats close to tbe ship, aud was soou
joined bv the other boats.
The ship was rolling in the breakers with all
her sails flapping about, and appeared to be
full of slaves: the master and crew had aban
•doned her with their boats, leaving tbe Ameri
can colors flying. Then we all beheld a dread
ful scene; tbe slaves forced their way from be
low, jumped overboard, and 6D->n disappeared
in the rollers; it was terrible to see theui. Our
officers and men regardless of their cwn lives,
pulled thiongh the surf *o the leeward of the
ship, but her heavy lurching for some time pre
vented liu-'ir boarding; when they succeeded,
the scene was borrifyinir; the siave* still for
cing their way op from the slave decks with
loud yells, running to and fro, and continuing
to throw themelves overboard.
All attempts to pacify them were useless;
force was necessary to drive them below until
preparations could be made for safety. We
were told by one of the slaves who could speak
. Portuguese, that they were told the English
would cut all their throats. As soon as the
boats could be attended to, the cutter was
backed under the. stern and a rope thrown her;
! then three of the slave* were permitted up at
' a time and lowered into the boat, the whale
| boat conveying them through the rollers to the
largo boat, and so on to the Sappho. Tlii*
continued until BA. M. The suit" increased,
and it was impossible to save more that night.
One hundred and eighty were rescued. Tbe
master was left with a guard on board; it was
an anxious and sleepless night for all. as death
was rapidly decreasing the number of the po?r
negroes, who, starving and nak"d, died from
utter tuisety— m'n, women, boys and girls,
more than 200 on board the Sappho—and, as
they ceased to breathe, we were obliged to
throw them overboard. Poor uegroes ! I hope
consoious iu their last moment® that English
seamen came to save Tiietc, and now ma lea si
lent prayer over them. Fortunately, wo had
nlenty of rico from the schooner captured,
which we fed them with, and placed them *
best we could under cover of sails. As food
aud warmth restored them, in various ways
j they signified their sense of kindness.
There was one poor creature with an infant
. at her breast, naked, cold and exhausted, ap
| parentiy dying; a little wine was given her,
■ then some rice, which she forced from her own
to her baby's mouth. A sheet was givau to
cover her; she wrapped her baby in it and
I pressed it. to her liedrt with that look of ma
ternal love which God has given to the dark
as well as to tbe pale face race. On hoard the
| schooner the master and guard were with the
remaining negroes in a perilous slate; the for
mer pas.-ed the night in the forecastle ami bow
sprit , drenched by the spray ct the boavy rol-
I lers.
At dawn on the 19th tho wind and surf had
| increased; the ship had driven closer to the
bccch; numbers of armed people were collec
ted; a signal for assistance was made; the cap.
went with all tbe boats utauned and armed,
1 when tbe uatives on tho beach, led on by witite
: men, apparently tlie crew of the ship, com
[ menced firing, with the intention
j the rescue of any more negroes. This contin
ued an hour before we could clear the beach,
some of otir shot apparently telling well. On
again boarding the wreck, she was found break
! ing up, with her hold full of water. On the
! tido receding, her hull was nearly dry, and
tbere was no time to spare. The large boats
were stationed to keep tho beach clear with
their guns; the cutter was anchored at the
j back of the surf, and by watching the rollers
i they succeeded iu throwing Ler a rope, when
! th negroes were lowered and Lauied through
; the surf, and conveyed a* before to the Sap
-1 pho, 200 more being rescued; then the wreck
1 was set fire to, and our people withdrawn.
We were in such a state, with 380 negroes
' crowding our decks; the stench was putrefy
-1 iug, and it was impossible to work the ship.—
. IN this state the second day closed upon us.—
IWe were 40 miles from Shark's l'oint; the
Captain resolved to ko in bis bot and a.®k for
| assistance. They pulied all night in the heavy
rain, and at daylight on the 20th, fortunately
• met the Vesuvius, Commodore Wise, wah
i whom the Captain returned. Commodore Wise
i took the negroes on board the V esuvius, to be
sent toidierra Leone in the Aleetor prize.
I have given you the history of one of the
many American ships employed in the slave
trade; six I think, have been taken. We sei
sed the Pauchita 30 utiles up the ooast, and
sent her to New York; we do not know wheth
er the American Government will condemn
her."
How THEY WERE CONVERTED. —The con
version of Messrs. Douglas, Wise and slker,
three Democratic candidates for the Presidency,
from fellowship with the fire-eaters, was doubt-!
lest owing to their perusal of tbo 75th chapter
of Psalms, stb and 6th verses:
'Lift not up joor horn on high; speak not
with a etiff neck.
'For promotion cometh neither from the East
nor from the West, nor _from the South!'
Of course promotion must come from the
JloHk! Would it not be well to send a copy of
the Bible to Jt ff. Davij and Mr. Keitt!
eeho is tha aludow of a sound, a
*oioe without a mouth, a word without a tongue.

A SINGULAR CIRCUMSTANCE.
We find in the Boston Journal the following
singular circumstance, a® having occurred >u
board the brig Helen Jane, of that port, on the
passage froiu. Boston to Honduras:
"Capt. Nickerson relates an adventure with
the steward of his vessel on ibe outward pas
sage, which somewhat enlivened the usuaij du'i
monotony of ocean life. It appears that a
white man, having an Atueriuau protection,
and giviug his name as Hawes CrowoiJ, ot VV est
Dennis, Cape Cod, shipped at Boston in the
capacity of u steward, and received his advance
wages before goiug ou board. Jhe vessel pro
eeoed to sea, and ou the morning of the first
day out, the steward was uiissiug, supposed by
ail on board to have fallen into the sea during
the night and diowued. Accordingly auoih
er tuati was appoiutod to uo his duty, and ev
erything went ou without suspicion. The voy
age coutiuued prosperously, and nothing oc
curred to aduiouisit the cap.aiu that his cargo
was leaking in a veiy unusual manner, and be
coming daiiy beautiiuily leas by an operation
whiou might tveii be compared to some late fi
nancial butioeuvoriug ashore. It seems, how
ever, that atter some days one of the crew ac
cidentally discovered that the cargo til tbe hold
bad been broken into, and an euipty ehatu
puiguc basket was found, with other indica
tions of robbery. The captiu's attention was
immediately called to the fact, aud he of course
suspected toe crew of counuiitiug the depreda
tion, aud instantly called metu to account; but
nothing could he elicited from the investiga
tion to fix the crime ou any of tha crew, WHO
stoutly denied ail knowledge of the matter. —
Thus tbe affair rested until their arrival at
Truxilln, twenty-two Jays afier leaving Bos
ton. Ou iho first night aftar anchoring the
crew were suddenly startled by the appearance
in tha forecastle of the lust steward, and so :
tiru.lv convinced were the frightened sailors ot
* . .
tbe ueath of their shipmate that tbey all in
stantly fled the deck from the supposed appa
rition, and told the captain. These leuis,
however, were soon quieted, tor the steward
Had really appeared, and upon being question
ed, coufcsst.d that he had secreted himself iu
the nold on the first d,.y out, under 'he lufiu
euee of delirium tremens, and for twenty-two j
days following had lived luxuriously on cbatu
patgue, raisms, ham, Ac., dining sumptuously
every day, and had enjoyed what on shore
would he called a 'bander." He consumed dur
ing the voyage eight baskets of chainpaigne,
fix boxes ot raisins, and other thtugs iu pro
portion. He was lett in the bauds ot the Uui- ,
ted L'lutes (Jousul, aud would Le ecut home for
tiiai. The Its* to the captain will amount to
about §*2so. '
[Crowed was not' brought home, because
while at Truxtlio he Was overheard to threaten j
the life of the captain. Take it altogether, it
is or.e of the strangest cases 011 record.] —Au-

DEATH OF COM MOHOEE PERRY. —Yester-
day morning, Commodore Matthew C. Perry
died at New York, at the age of seventy, lie
had been neari; half a century iu tbe U. S.
Navy, and after "flashing his maiden sword'*
iu the war of 1812, did good service, aher
wartls, in the Mexican war. lit* last public
duty, which more particularly will associate
him with the historical recirJsof his native
land, was hi® successful command of the Ex
pedition to Japan. Iu this, contrary to expec
tation, be succeeded —by a union uf tact, fiim
uess, aud suavity —in breaking down the pre
judices which the Japanese ruler and people
had entertained toward the inhabitants of this
country and Europe. The immediate result
was a treaty wiih Japan, since foilowed up by
further concessions, and speedily to be crowned
by the reception of a Japanese Ambassador at
Washington. Commodore Perry was largely
endowed with common sense, and had great
knowledge of the world.— Press .March 5.

OR LIVER REMEDY
11HIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST SCIEN
. tifie mediad discoveries ever made, and is dai
ly working euro almost too great to believe. It
cures as if by nt igic, even the Jirs! Hise giving bene-
Jit and seldom more th in one bottle is required, to
cure any kind of Liver Complaint, front the worst
Jaundice or Dyspepsia to a common brad ftc'u*',
all of which are the result oi a Diseased Liver.
The liver is on-i ofthe principal regulators of the
human lody, and when it per/orms its junctions
well, the powers ofthe system are fully developed
The stomach is almost entirely dependent on the
he ilthy scliou of the Liver tor the priqier per
formance of its functions. When the stomach is
at fault, tin Ivowels are at fault, and the whole
system suffers in consequence of one organ—the
Liver—having ceased to do its duty. For the
diseases of that organ, one of the proprietors has
ma le it his study, in a practice of more than twen
ty ve.trs. to Bnd some remedy wherewith to coun
teract the niinv derangements to which it is lia
ble.
To prov' that this remedy is at last found, snv
person troubled with Liver Complaint in any oi its
forme, has but to try a bottle, and conviction is
certain.
A compound has beet forme! by dissolving gums
and extracting that part which is soluble lor tfo
active virtues of the in edict ne. These gums re
move all morbid <>r bad matter from the system,
supplying in their place a heal by flaw of bile, in
vigorating the stomach causing lood to digest Well,
purifymg the flood, giving tone and health to the
wholi machinery, removing the causes ol the dis
ease, and effecting a rauical cure without any ot
the disagreeable aitcr effects, felt, by using Calomel
or Mineral poison, that are usually resorcea. to.
Toail who will follow thesa directions a cure is
positively guaranteed. SICK IIi.JDA.CHS can be
cured by the use of two tea-spoousful taken as
soon as tite attack is iclt.
The luvigorator writer fails to cure sour stom
ach or the t>al effects experienced alter eating.
Billions attacks yield readi'y to one bottle, and
Colonic Diarrhoea, difficult as it is tn cure, is never
troublesome to muse who take the luvigorator.
For Dyspepsia of Jaundice, nothing in the kouwn
world act so iuliy or cures so quickly as the lu
vigorator. It removes ail ycJowuess and unnatu
ral color from the skin.
For -Night Mare, take a dose before retiring, ar.d
it is warranted a sure preventative.
for Female Obstructions it is a sife and sure
remedy, a-vit removes the cause of the disease.

roc'.y taken, while Chuhc yields readily to z few
doses
It must be known that all these are Liter disea
ses, or caused by a deranged Liver, and to cure
tbciu needs a Liver modiciue and one of great pow
er. The luvigorator sucn a medicine; it his
medicinal powers, never before discover-d, that
will cure ail diseases et the Liver, no matter o. w
long standing, or what may be their form. The
active medicinal virtues extracted from the gums
used Is such as to be astonishing f" all who see
their effects, for none can use the medicine without
lecc-iving benefit. It acts as a genii.: Cathartic,
and should always be taken In sufficient quantities
to op.rale on the bowels gently. The best way to
rtie it is to take the medicine in the mouth, then
jjtake some water and swallow both together. In
ibis way the medicine will scarcely be t.sted,

A gentleman of Boston writes to his friend in
New Bedford thus:
To your inquiries, I would reply, that when I
first Co'Jimetitfu'i using Professor Wood's II dr Re
storative, my hair was almost white, and had been
so for the 1 ist ten years and it was very thin ou
the top of my bead, and very loose, and pu led
out freely; but I found th::t before I had used all
the second bottle, (which was eight weeks) my
hair was entirely changed to its original color,
light brown, arid is cuw free from dandruff and
quite moist, i have had my hair cut five or six
t met since the change, and have never seen any
thing iike white hair starting .rota the r ts ; and
it is now as thick as it ever was, and does not cotne
out at all. It has proved in my caso R that I
could wish to ask.
