J OUR fOl .NTV TICKET. j The ticket placed before the people of Bed ford County, by the People's Convention, last week, is admitted to be one of the Lc.-t that was ever offered by any party fur the public i support, GEORGE W. \\ ILLIAMS, of Napier Tp., ; is wcdl aud favorably known throughout the County as oue of the best and most clear head ed farmers we have. He is decidedly popular and will run a very strong vote. A3 a party j man, he always jrasJiiuud battling 'fir,',, right, in the strong Locofoco township of Na- j pier, against tho greatest odds. He was born j and raised iu Napier, and stands high wlier- ' ever known for his many good qualities. His nomination is a grateful tribute to his worth. j Ho will make tin intelligent and faithful mem- i ber. iiis colleague ou the ticket. GEORGE M . ! WALKER of®omerset County, is a very in telligent and popular man, and will luna sttong vote. Both candidates will be elected. GIDEON D. TIIOUT, of St. Clair, our can- j Uidate for Commissioner, is one of the best men ! iu the County, and will make ac excellent Com missioner. He was lately a Poor Director, and it is conceded on all hands that a better one we never had. Bedford County, under Loco foco ruauageiiieut has become, largely in debt, J and uow that Mr. Whetstone, the only opposi tion member iu the board goes out, it will be to the interest of the people, that Mr. Trout should be elected. HENRY M. 110KE, of Snake spring, our ; candidate for Poor Director, is a first rate j man, well aud favorably known, and should be | elected, if the people of Bedford County have , atiy interest in having at least one good man as a Director, as Mr. Shuck's time expires this fall. Mr. Amos, the opposition candidate, it is said, can scarcely write Lis own name, which should have its proper weight with the voters. JAMES DARNELL, of Mouioe, for Audi tor, is a good accountant, aud will make a first rate Auditor, lie ought to be elected, as the opposition Lave no oue in the Auditor's board. WM. SHOWMAN, of Harrison, is just the man for Coroner. No better could have been taken up, and he will run a strong vote. The Klautir Cable. Most of our readers are uo doubt already aware of the fact that the Atlantic Cable has been laid. This is, probably, the greatest event that has occurred within the present cen tury, and the news of which has been received all over the country with outbursts of joy. In the principal cities cannon were fired, bells ""•g, nd many buildings illuminated. The first despatuVi, after the fixtures at both ends are completed, will be from Quceo Victoria to President Buchanan, ami the uext, the Presi dent's answer. The intelligence uow is, that the Agamem non has arrived at Valerius Bay, ami that the cable is in complete workiug order. Wo give the latest telegraphic news in another column. A cotemperary, in announcing the great event, says, the Old World and tho New now shake bands cordially across the vast and watery wilds of Neptune, defying alike /Eolus and his winds, aud Boreas, tho "blustering railer," and bis storms Surely, this is a millenial al liance of nations—a pledge from above, that one grand step has been taken towards insur ing the intermingling amity of our different races—towards the concentration of all tribes and kingdoms, of every clime aud every creed into one great "family of man.'* Here the submarine cable will not stop. The India and Chinese seas, ami finally the foaming Pacific, will be traversed, and thought, and idea, and suggestion, an 1 principle, and doctrine, aud philosophy, and a feuowle Ige of all tiling- sub lunary, will speed from soul to sou'., '•From Indus to the pole.'' Magnificent to the last "syllable of record ed time," will be the records of the nineteenth century! "You will kindly allow me to correct a very gross error into which you have fallen, You assert that, 'for upwards of fifty years, the Ga zette has been the untiring advocate of Demo crat io principles.' The Gazette never was the advocate of Democratic principles until a lew months before it passed into mv hands. Prior to th t lime, it was, to the fullest extent, an orgau of the Federal Party. CilAs MCDOW ELL, Esq., who established the paper, never made any profession of Democracy until GEN. JACKSON vetoed that Monster, the Beak of the United States, on which occasion he abandon ed his former party and its odious principles, and commenced battling manfully for Jackson and Democracy. This was the condition in which I found the Gazette at tbo time 1 pur chased. and it is highly important that this fact should be kept fairly before the people, in or der that Democrats may cot be misled." - Let ter of G. If . Bowman, in last Gazette. This is a tissue of falsehood from beginning to end. It is irue that the Gazette was a Fed- j oral paper under McDowell, and it is equally true that i; was so under Bowman. There are men now living in Bedford, whom we could name, that Mr. McDowell, a short time before his decease, told that he was then what lie had | always boor, a Federalist: and that he had ; never changed his politics. Bowman, in hi very first number, told his readers that the pol ities of the paper, under his eoutrol, would nut be changed. Tliey were not changed, and he supported the same principles the Federal par . ty always did, whilst the Inquirer always, as it , dors now, supported the principles of the old Democratic party. Bow turn came to this town j a Federalist, and hi served his apprenticeship . in a Federal piintiug office in Virginia. The j people should not be deceived by the lying j statements of a political reprobate like Bow- : .man, and th*y know him too well to be. Jt SI AS WE EXPECTED. —Our cotempora- \ ry down street was evidently streiy exevci."?d j over our late article, in which WU- remonstrated • ui:h him about his juvenile aud bad habits of j telling lies, calling names, and making "snoots" . It is painful to see that he will take no advice or adopt no suggestions, however kindly in tended. These habits are apparently so con firined, or so much a nart of "to make lim incorrigible,— depraved beyond j amendment. Instead of acting upon our sug gestionsj intended for tho improvement of hi* ' maimers, he flies into a passion, and betakes | himself to lying and caliing names, like a very drab, and if be di 1 not also make "snoots," we j ure glad to thiuk he adopted our suggestions, i even to this extent. At the risk of having our evidence again disregarded, we say, keep cool, 1 and don't allow your passions to rise; and if j our advice be not taken, the consequences must i be. HARVEST UOME!—FBEE DINNER — j NO 1 QUITE!---According to advertisements j in the Gazette, and by handbills circulated all I over the County, a Harvest lloiue Dinner came off last Saturday, at Hafer's II tel. It was given out that President Buchanan would take Dinner there also, anu iu order to draw#s large a crowd as possible there to see the President, it was gotten out that all parties were freely ! invited to partake of the Dinner, "without money aud without price," the bill to be footed !by bis Excellency. A groat many persons | came to town, but few took dinner—about sev- I cnty-five, we understand, for we were not in j town, and very few of tbem of the opposition. The President was there, but those who partook \ of the refreshments had to foot their own bills, ! and many of the "faithful" returned to their j homes with "curses loud and deep" agaiust bogus democracy aud deception. CONGRESS. We learn tlrat at the Congressional Confer ence for this district, which met in Chambcrs : burg ou Tuesday last, EDWARD MCPIIERSON, j Esq., of Adams County was on the fifth ballot nominated for Congress. Mr. MoPbcrson is a young man of extraordinary talents, a good speaker, and one of the best political writers lin the State. He has for years been connect ed with the press, and contributed more, pro i bablv, than any other man, to the sale of the i public works of this state. He was the author ! of the series of articles, which we published ! last summer on that subject, signed "Adams " .He is popular, and will run well. Tho feeling ; is strong in favor of his electiuu, and the de feat of Reilly. lie will address our meeting in Court Week. "Beef-Hecls" is informed, for the forty-'hv onth time, that it matters not to whom ho at tributes our articles. They are well written, read well, and, vse presume, on this account, he attributes them to one of the most talented men in the State, so that he may have an opportu nity of squirting his dirty water at him. "Beef- IRols," since he has called into his editorial columns weekly, the services of the " tat yen ted" "poet laureate," tbiuks that no other editor can write for his own paper. Go it, "beef-heels," i there'll soon be another looofoco coiruption I ugent go through 1 FRANCIS P. BI.AIR JR., WAS defeated at the electiou in St. Louis by a small majority. "You claim the credit of being the first to publish a paper in Bedford for one dollar and fifty cents a year. This is the fact, but the subscribers to the Gaz-tle never grumbled at two dollars JI year, and I do not think any man should be asked to publish a country weekly for less.— G. (V. Bowman, in the last Gazette. More lies 1 The Bedford Chronicle , pub lished in Bedford a few years ago, was only §1,50 per annum as, we think was also the Jackson Oimocrat. The subscribers to the Gazette , we have reason to know, did grumble at the terms under Bowman, and Mr. Benford, chief of the three editors, in his lust paper, iu a note to this Bowman letter, contradicts him and states that"lt was at the earnest solicita tion of many of their patrons that they reduced the subscription price of their paper." Bowman, in his letter in the last Gazette deprecates tho starting of a "Young Men's Christian Association" iu Bedford, and inti mates that it will will do no good. Everybody knows that these Associations have done im mence gool all over tho couutry, Locofccoism, as a party is opposed to everything that will advance the cause of Christianity an i truth.— Christians sec this doctrine iu the last Gazette. IN TOWN.- Our f;ien>!, D. J. CHAPMAN, Es<| , and lady, of Philadelphia, arrived in our town last Wednesday morning. Wo ure pleased to learn that it is Mr. Chapman's en teution to remain amongst his old associates abr-ut a month. Our people are always pleas ed to take him 1>) the hand, and welcome him to our town. GUOKIOUS SEWS ! KANSAS ELECTION. — Tho election in Kansas has resulted in the overwhelming triumph of the Free State men, nearly every Ouunty in the Territory ha? gone by large majorities Against the Euglish swindle. Poor Mr. Buchanan, and Lecomptonites generally, what will you do now. Particulars nest week. Bowman in his last letter in the Gazette j virtually admi's the defeat of Porter for Su- ■ preiue Judge this fall. See his letter. Loco- j focuiam is on its last legs in this State. i HE SPRINGS.—The season at the Springs 1 still keeps up. There are now a! most as ninny arrivals there as there were altogether last sea son. Mr. Buchanan, is still there. The saerartleiit of the Lord's Supper, (D.

AUGUST s.—Tiie AT- \ lantie cable has probably been successfully ! laid. The Niagara arrived at Trinity Bay j yesterday. The cable will be landed to-day. • The signals were perfect throughout. TRIBUTE BAY, AUGUST s.—The Atlantic i Telegraph fleet sailed from Queons'own, Ire land, on the 17th of July, and met in mid ocean on the 28th. They made one splice on the 20th at 1 o'clock P. M. aud then separated —the Agamemnon ari l Valorous being bound to Valencia, and the Niagara and Gurgou for this place, where we arrived yesterday, and the cable will be landed to-day. The cable laid is 1,698 nautical, or 1,950 statute miles long, from the telegraph house here (it Bull's Bay) to the head of Valencia harbor, and is laid for more tbau two-thirds of th it distance in water over two miles deep. The cable was paid out from the Agamemon 1 at about the same speed as from the Niagara, and the electric signals scut and received through the whole cable are perfect. The machinery for pay ing out the cable worked most satisfactorily, ;uid was not stopped for a single moment. Captain Hudson, Messrs. Everett and Wood house, engineers and electricians, the officers of the ship, and in fact every man on board the fleet exerted themselves to the utmost to make the expedition successful, and by the blessing of Divine Providence they succeed- ; cd. After the end of the cable is landed aud connected with the land lines the Niagara, after discharging some cargo belonging to the j Telegraph Company, will go to St. John's for coal, and then proceed ut once to New York. GYRUS W. FIELD. PHILADELPHIA, AUG. s.—The President, at Bedford, received the first intimation of the success of the cable enterprise. The following is a copy of Gyrus W Field's message to tho President . TRINITY BAY, AUG. 5. To the President of the United Stales : DEAR SIR : The Atlantic Telegraph cable on board the United States frigate Niagara and her Britannic Majesty's steamship Agamemnon was joined in mid-ocean on July 29th and has been successfully laid ; and as soon as the two ends are connected with the laud lines Queen Victoria will send a message to you. The ca ble will thcube kept free until after your re ply has been transmitted. With great respect, I remaiu your obedieut servant. CYRUS W. FIELD. HALIFAX, AUGUST 6.—Tho Newfoundland Telegraph ceased to work early last evening, thus cutting off ill communication with Trinity Bay. At the time the last despatch was sent the engineers and their assistants were employed in gittiug the cable ashore. No doubt was entertained that the Agamem non had arrived at Valencia Bay ; bur, as the Telegraph instruments for the transmission of intelligence have never been put on board of either vessel there cau be no actual communi cation, except by signals, until after both euds of tho cable shall have been connected with tho shore, which may require several days. The President replied as follows to Mr. fiield s note, informing him of the opening of communication with England : BEDFORD SPRINGS, AUO. 6. GYRUS W. FIELD, Trinity Bay : My DEAR SIR : 1 congratulate you with all ! my heart on the success of the great enterprise with which your nanic is honorably connected. Under the blessing ot Divine Providence 1 trust it may prove instrumental in promoting perpetual peace and friendship between the kindred nations. I have not yet icceived the Queen's despatch. Yours, very respectfully, JAMES BUCHANAN SACKVILLE, (ME.) AUGUST 6.— The lines east to Halifax and west to New Yoik are in good order, but tho Newfoundland line is in operative. It gave out east of this point early last evening. TEN O'CLOCK AT NIGHT.— The Telegraph is still down between Port 1 Loo 1 and Cape Bret ou. '1 here is tlie Past doubt, however, of the absolute correctness of Mr. Field's report of yesterday. The weather is wet and disagreea ble- Signals Kept Up-—Complete Success- I KIJUTY BAY, Aug. 7. —The most complete success has attended the Dying of the Atlantic Telegraph Cable, and the telegraphic signals are being transmitted through the entire length. It is unlikely that the line will bo opened for several days, and perhaps weeks, delay be ing necessary to give the electrici ics time for a series of experiment . Due notice of the opening fir business will be given. THE CABLE LANDED AT VALENCIA—COMMU NICATION FULLY ESTABLISHED WITH IRELAND.

The Aalional Eilravaganee. The official statement of appropriations for the current fiscal year of the general govern ment, as made up by the Glerk of the House, shows the following result : Legislative, executive, judi cial and miscellaneous, '812,790,646 42 Diplomatic and consular 912,120 00 Indian Department, revolu tionary, iuvalid and other pensions, 3,407,156 85 .Armv _ forljficatiojiS. road?, 25,683,610 40 Naval service 14,508,354 23 Post Office Department 19,047,456 00 Ocean Steam Mail Service 1,460,750 01 Collection of the revenue 3,600,000 00 Treaty with King of Denmark 408.731 44 Total §81,824,825 40 i These figures represent nothing more than the specific appropriation*. The indefinite appro priations, including claims and the like, are variously estimated, and by a statemeut put I forth under the inspiration of the Treasury De partment are estimated at §3,500,000. We put them at §2,000,000. The iutcrest v the public debt is provided for in the bills author izing the loans or notes, aud hence no annuel appropriation is made. That item belongs to 'he permanent class. The grand total is there fore as follows : Totai of specific appropria tions. as shown in Mis. Doc. No. 137, §81,824,825 40 In definite appropriation, for allowances, &0., estimated, 2,000,000 00 Interest on public debt, which existed prior to acts Dec. 23 and Juno 14, 1,415,314, 35 Interest on public debt of §40,000,000, created by j acts Dec. 23 aud June 14, j say, 2000,000 00 Balance appropriations last year, applicable to present Sec.

The appropriations for 1857 were only §72,112,79*, and that sum was §14.000,000 iu excess of Pierce's last year—lBs6. So it seems we are getting on rapidly. A JI D L. L D. .dnd his System of practice for "Saving the Union." To secure a specie currency—scud fifty mil lions of gold a year to Europe. To euro the eviK of the banking system — establish a sub-troasury and issue treasury notes. To make trade good import hundreds of mil lions of dollars worth of merchandise a year, and pay thirty millions of specie jtnuually for interest on our debts. To help workingmen —shut up their work shops and let them walk idle about the streets. To promote the interests of the producer— | give foreign capitalists and manufacturers in ' Europe the control of our currency and labor. 1 To advance Democracy—euact a tariff which j has been examined and approved by Lord Pal -1 merston aud Lord Napier. To preserve the Union—compel the people of the Free States to bow to the lash of the Southern disuoionists and nullifiers. To maintain the rights of the States—pass a iaw to foreo an odious constitution on the peo ple, or keep them out of the Union. To administer the Government with economy —spend all the surplus on bond and than run in debt forty millions in one year. To protect the interests of the people—see a whirlwind 0 f ruin sweep over the country and spend HS months in at> abortive a'teuqt to ex tend fl.very. To encourage naliouul sentiments—devote the whole power of the government to advance the interest of a small tiumber in one section of ibe Union. To elevato Democratie principles—proscribe decapitate, and persecute all men who wiil not swallow such a compound of nonfS' Usc prepara tions as are set luitb in tbe above manner of political factorship. Ho much for national democracy or federal ism, and we hope our so tailed Democratic ed itors will lay these prescriptions before tiieii readers with notes aud comments.— Fret- Prieit. Why do w© not own Frazer's River? Many of our readers will remember that the folk party in 1841, when the Oregon bund iry question was up, insisted upon our right to the territory np to 54 deg. 40 loin. Mr. Polk himself declared our title up to that line was clear and unquestionable; and the party cry, then, was "fifty-four-forty or fight." Yet in 1840, the Polk administration, Mr. Buchanan being Secretary . f Slate, uiade a treaty sur rendering all our territory tioith of latitude forty-nine and west of Puget Sound, to Great Britain. The extent of terri'ory thus relin quished was 150,000 square miles- Within the region thus surrendered lies thu fiazer river Gold Mines. Mr. Polk claimed great credit for acquiring the gold region of Ouli toruia j but the gold discovered when California was acquired. * It was a conquest, and considered at the tiuro a barren one ; but the regiou voluntarily surrendered north of 40 deg. was ours by tight and was intrinsically valuable. It thus turned out that we gave up, through the cowardice and slavishness of Bu chanan and democratic administration, a valuable regiou of 150,000 square miles, em bracing the immensely rich gold-bearing valley of Frazer's lliver, m: l then fought for the acquisition ot barren region from Mexico, which was afterwards accidentally discovered to ne rich in deposits-of gold. The Albany Evening Journil justly says : "Amuj toe congratulations which greet the Discoveries of Gold at Frazer's lliv.r, are mingled some very natural regrets that the said gold belongs to Queen Victoria's dominion in stead of cur own. Q teen \ icturia derives her title to it, wheth er well or ill founded, through the D.mocratic 1 arty of the United Bfatcs. Everybody re members the vociferous brag of "Fifty-Four IcrJj, or Light! with which Prtoident Polk's ! Administration was ushered in. The Bounda ry be:weeu us and the British Possessions was 1 ttieu unsettled, and the country was assured by the proclamation of Democratic Presses and Politicians th t the Treaty about to be made should secure us all the Territory up to the I neof 54 deg. 40 min.,tr else we should try the virtue or "force and arms"' to compel , Greatsßritain to accede to that line. But in this case, as iu that of Kansas, our \ ; I tnancial J oliey, and others "too numerous to ; : mention,' Democratic professions proved to bo i ; very diffcreut from Democratic practice. The ! f hy? 1 ' r"ywiy ui& tt-j out get i Forty" nor "Fight," but we sub- j | milled to take only up to 49 deg., aud to give j I up ali claim to Vancouver's Island, eveu as far j j south as 48. Thus it happened that Fi.zer's Kiver, with j | all its appurtenant 'bars,' 'placers,' 'gulches,' ; ! Mines and other depositories of golden Wealth, j ' which are in the latitude of 494 fell into the' j hands of our British neighbors, and the new j j Gold Colony to be founded tbere will enrich j • the coffers ot the Chancellor 01 the bxchc'piet J ; instead of those of the Secretary of the Treas- j jury. Either our claim of 54: 40 was just or it | ! was unjust. If it was unjust, the Adiuinis- | | tration had no business to make it. If it was | just, they ought never to have backed out of ! it. Imagine whit malediction and railing and ; : storming at the cowardly 'British \Vhi<*s" j j would have graced the colums of our Demo- i | era tie cotemporarics just now, had it. been an j I Administration of opposing political opinions | | which made this unlucky concession. But as : it is, they find silence in regard to the past ! j history of Frszer's Kiver, as convenient as it j [ is expressive. KOYISti COMHiSSIO.YS. The general telegraphic dipatcb from this J city, of July 28, says : "The President, before leaving for Bedford j Springs, appointed John Nugeut, Esq., editor 1 of tho San Francisco Herald , who is now here, jan agent to proceed to Frazcr river, to make i propei representations to the citizens of the | United States, with the view of preventing i i collisions or outbreaks in that quart i Of course, this is n mere job, gotto re ; ward a partisan for whom nothing else could |be found.

' What can bo more impolitic, what more calcu j lated to arouse the jealousies of the British authorities, than sending an American Govern ment agent into British territory 1 Of course, Mr. Nugent would like to make a trip to ttye j Frazor mines at the public expense, but this ; is not a sufficient reason for allowing him to j put his.hands iuto the Treasury. I The amount of money speut by this Admin istration in these roving commissions is enor mous. It is only lately that William Carey. Jones returned from Nicaragua, whore he had j been capering about fur a year, at nobody knows how much cost, and ali to reward him for writiug letters against his brother-in-law, ! Col. Fremont. It is now sail that Francis J. • Gi und has gone on a .secret mission to Europe, to reward him for his libels upon honest men, : and his ready apologies for the corruption .nd rascality of the party iu power. Aud these are only samples of the style iu which the Ad ministration appropriates the public money to I feed its partisans.— Washington Republic. We see that a number of the papers in the iuteiior are opposed to the military encampment which is to come off in Ueptciuber at Williams port. Tlicy say the location is not ouly un healthy, but it. will cost the State over $lOO,- 000. Several of our contemporaries suggest a j postponement of tho affair until next year. Iu the present depressed state of business, we think the suggestion a good one.— Ex. The suggestion is eminently proper. No satisfactory reason can be assigned for the cx- I penditure of $lOO,OOO at the expense of the , .State, without the hope of adequate compensat ing benefits.

If you Want the post ilbec department to piy expenses he, you must raise the postage to such a price as will do it.
