GEORGE W. WILLIAMS.
Among the most gratifying local results of
our recent election. is the saccess of our can
didate, Geo. W. Williams, bv a handsome ma
jority, nowithsiandiug the unprincipled and
malignant efforts made to defeat him. lie lost
some fifty votes by an independent candidate,
and wis no doubt injured soaie by the persis
tent efforts of General Burns to make it be
bolieved that our friends in Somerset Lao con
spired again c t the Bedford county candidates,
tbo falsehood of which is now marife-t from
the oifi ial returns. B it, perhaps the mean
est and most unfounded charge of all to which
Williams was subjected, was one started and
industriously circulated by our old friend,
Judge Snivcly, to the fffac', !hat on a certain
occasion, when Mr. B. F. Tucker, of Napier
township, was about to vote, mid bad his band
in at tho window for that purpose, Williams
pull, d him back and compelled him to change
his ticket. Wo are authorized to say that this
is a most unmitigated falsehood, that W iliiams
was not withiu twenty yards of the polls at the
tiuia refcred to, and that l'acker blmrcif, if de
sired, would so declare ou oath. The former
activity of William*, nnd his koowo populari
ty, luvo caused him to be both feared and ha
ted by o certain class r.f his political oppo
nents, and hence the unscrupulous means used
to defeat him; lot they ftot only failed to sue. j
"ucwpijuf To com- anywhere near it It i-:
most gratifying to know that such means, used
agaiust such a candidate, hivo only r. coiled on
lire heads of tlio parties Using them.
THE LATE ELECTION.
Wo publish to-day the cfti.-iul returns for Su
preme Judge and Cunal Commissioner, and al
-60 for members of Congress. On tbc State
ticket the opposition majority is 27,0001 Oo
the Congressional vote, however, is where the
real strength of Mr. Buchanan's policy is tested,
many uion that condemned bis policy on the
LecomptoD bill, voted the State ticket, as it did
not have u direct bearing on that question. It
will be seen that the majority of the Opposi
lion oaodidrtes over the regular Locofuco can
didates is 44,155 ! Add to this the anti-Lc
eompton Democratic vote of 28,417, and we
will find that the aotual nnti-Lecompton, anti-
Buchanan majority is 73,572! This is vic
tory enough for one day,md is the most terrible
crusher that aDy President bis over received
from tho people of bis oo State. Will Mr,
Baohaoan resign?
*"-Tbo Compiler intimates that (be Democrat
ic managers aid not have enough of money to
spend iu the last campaign. This is unfortu
nate, considering (hat Mr. Rcilly received ai
Washington §7OO of Government Funds to aid
in securing his re-election. Probably, howev
er, Mr. Rcilly spent all this in the other coun
ties, thinking Adams safe without much ex
penditure in it. The result shows that the lie
mcoracy of Adams ate as fond of money as the
Democracy ot any other ocuuty. Mr. ileiliy
will know better than to slight the Adams
county Democrats agate."— Gettysburg Star.
The Looofocos io (bis County were not so
bad off. Reilly and Bowman, it i- generally
conceded, left f least SSOO here of money
raised io Washington to aid iu carrying Reilly
through, hut it was no go. lie foil behind his
voto of two years ago, and lost several hundred
on last fall's vote. Wo know of money having
been offered in this county at the last election,
by the Iyieofocos, for rotes.
HON. S:MO CAMERON.— The Tyrone Star
has raised to its mast-head, the name of this
distinguished son of Pennsylvania as its choice
for the Presidency in 1860. Senator Cameron
ha 9 always beeo the fast friend of a Protect
ive Tariff, which would secure prosperity to the
interests of the people of this State and of 'he
•onatry. lie is a Northern man of baokbone,
nd will stand up to the interests of the peo
ple all the time and forever, aud his election
would, as a Peuryl vauiuti, help (o wipe oat
the disgraco which has been imposed upon uur
State by bcr recreant s.>u, the present misera
ble itnbccita who now bits the executive office.
&u)cron's usuie is A tower OJ strength, aoi

gbnous victory foi the oausj f the people.
"We look agaiii and w> see Mr. Nebinjwr,
tho Anti-Lccnmpton candidate iti *hc First
District, beaten several thousand votes. We
S3c Mr. Cake, another Atjfi-L-compton De
mocratic candidate, in the Schuylkill district,
in a tmnoiity of several thousand. We sec
Henry D. Foster, of the Westmoreland Dis
trict, n very popular man, who also run as an
Anri liceoiiiptou candidate, defeated by from
1200 to 1500. In fact we find hut two Atiti-
Lccoiepton Democrats elected to Congress and
those two in districts where the Opposition
despaired of electing tnen of their own party.
We see also that Reilly, Fisher, Jones and
other regular Democratic nominees are beaten
by but trifling majorities. 11 is not Anti-Lc
coniptonism, therefore, injured rather than ben
efitted the Democratic eauiidatos that profess
ed it?"— GaZ'tle.
That's rather sorrowful, isn't it ? Tin reu-
SOD why Cake, Foster, &c., were beaten, was
because the people had beeu deceived before in
the pledges of auoh men, aud tbey elected meu
over them who were certain oot to deceive tliero.
Did not lleilly, the two Jones, Landy, Phillips,
Manly, Dewart, &c., &•., stand on tie Lc
compton platform, and were they uot ail beat
en 1 Tc.coiuptonism was enough to kill even a
stronger party than Lcoofocoisui. The elec
tions in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, lowa,
Minnesota and Kansas, h.ive all gone for the
opposition, and condemned the Looompton
swiudlc.
"In Febru iry las', the Democracy of Old
lied ford, in M.ss Meeting assembled, resolved
to 8t nd by tho Natioual Administration, and
proclaimed their determination to cling to the
regular Democratic organization. And whit
is the result?"— Gazette.
That Reiily'a vote on two years ago lias been
reduced, and a gain for the People's party on
last year over Wiluiot's vote of six hundred
and fifty five ■' and over Wilmot aud II axle
hurst united of two hundred and fx)ty-s?ven!
Even the people of the sr uthtrn bolder ccunty
of Bedford won't stand Lecompton I Had it
not been for the money tho.Locofocos

Democrats,) the ambitious spirits whose insa
liilo maws whole tr asuri"3 could not surfeit?
the Forneys, the Webbs, and the Nebingets,
who must either rule or ruiu ?"— Gazette
Ii will thus appear by the G jftte, tuat tue.-e
ami Lecoiupton men were offtred ''whole treas
uries," if they would back down and eat dirt
at the feet of old Mr. Buchanan, but they had
too much manliness for that, and because the
"treasuri had not the usual effect on Loeo
foco leaders, the Gazette grins a horrible gnn :

zette.
So ray w.<
Tho following artiale froui the Adams Sen
tiucl, shows tho manner in which the Democ
racy treat Catholics, where tbov aro placed be
fore theni for their support. Tho only two
candidates on the Lccofoco County ticket that
were bea'en, were Catholics.
"It appears quite a stugular coincidence that
tho only two candidates on the Democratic
County ticket, who were defeated on Tuesday
last, should be of the Catholic Church. It
would seem to indicate that there must be some
"Know Nothings" in the Democratic party,
who hive made their mark there, acd of course
will hereafter. The Democratic State ticket
has a ni-ij wity; yet Mr. Will aud Mr. Ciunk
have been defeated. What docs it m>an? As
we do not belong to either branch, we cannot
giro any reason —yet it is very significant, and
may well bo a subject of reflection on the part
of our old whig Catholic friends, whether they
have got info better company than they were
before.
CORRECTION —lu our paper of tho 8:h inst.,
in reply to a scurrilous attack on tho private
business reputation of Gideon D. Trout, Esq.,
wo stated thai not long since the proporty of
Mr. Jacob Beckley bad been under cxocution.
This being positively denieJ, we investigated
the matter still further and find that we were
mistaken. We based our remarks ou statements
made by a late Sheriff of this County, aud at
the time believed in the truth of what we said.
The propcity of a person of the name of Beck
iey was under execution, but not that of Jacob
Bcokley. Hence the error. We cheerfully
make the correction as we always do, when
convinced of error, and hope he may make as
good a Commissioner as his friends claim he
will.
J. Glancy Jones has accepted the mission to
Austria, and starts next mun'h. lie leaves
his country for bis country's good.
Hon. David Wilmot has been re-elected
President Judge of his District by 4,630 ma
jority.
Hon. Gaylord Church of Crawford County
has been appoiutcd by Gov. Pucker, Judge of
tho Supreme Court to fill the vacancy occasion
ad by tbe resignation of Judge Porter.
We will publish a list of the members of
the Hons© and Senate uext week.

our Locofoco readers, we would like to inform
them of the next meeting of the ail-powertui
Buobuoau Clubf Won't some of tbe Locofo

Mr. OVER: Perhaps if would not be amiss
to seDd you an account of a destructive 6re
tliat occurred in our village yesterday. It
started from some cause unknown in the bouse
occupied by Mr. Isaac O. Adams, and raged
with great fury, the buildings being of pine,
destroying the above mentioned bouse, with
nearly all the furniture of M_ Adams, the
; house and office it: the possession of Dr. Mil
| ler, with considerable of his furniture and lued
i iciues, some live rooms and buildings formerly
! used as shops, the house in the possession of
Mr. N. Border, with some grain aud"furuiture,
tiie greater part of the apparatus uud chemi
ieals belonging to Mr. Single, an artist, ami
causing injury to be done to other buildings
| and furniture. When it commenced, there
were only sonic five men in town, all the rest
having gone out on business, but with the a .
sistarice of the ladies, we lubop-i ;" n e ut _
most of our ability during ihc fire to save the
• 'U>es and tlieiy consuls. There was but iit
*•'■2 w>y. a ey.\,g at the time, and that towards
f b itOriboast, which was favorable to u 5 , and
1 assistance came qi'iokly; but we were under
great disadvantages on account of the scarcity
of hands and water, and the Gre being in the
heat oi the day. 'ihc fire started in the mid
fl eof our village, aiid it was with the utmost
exertion aul risk of life—Providence favoring
us—that the devouring element w >s prevented
from destroying the whole of our little town.
It was next thing ;o i tu raviu that the dwel
ling of Mr. Ue. rgu Under, and the More and
residence ot Mr. James R. O'Neal were not
destroyed. 'I ho i ■ ?ses by this fire will pioba

For Ike Inquirer.
COALMONT, Oct. 25, 1858.
D. OVER, Esq.: —lll perusing an article in
the Uizette of last week, under the caption of
"How it was done," I was forcibly struck
with the open falsehood pronounced iu that ar
ticle, stating that "dozens of men were march
cd up to the pulls protesting that they were vo
ting contrary to their cherished seniitaeuLa."—
Now there is not a man in our township, demo
crat or opposition, but will brand this asser
tion as false. In the first place, the election
is not held at Coalmont, but at Broad Top
City, four miles off, and a second proof of the
falsify of ibe Gazette's assertion, is, that there
were scarcely one half-dozen of democrats liv
ing at Coalmont, all of whoiu are uncomprom
ising leaders of -.hat corript party; hence it
will be seen, tuat the minions of federal power
resort to nothing too low, in order toxave their
shattered fragments from ignominious shame.
But the reasons of the late disaster of the Lt
cofoeos arc too plain to be met by the shallow
ideas which the Gizctte and other servile
sheets of the administration would have the
people believe. Indeed the late election was
one of the brightest evidences of a republican
people, of any instance, since the days of '76.
It shows tho determined uprisiug of an injured
people to resent the wrongs practised by un
principled official tyrants. It shows, too, that
while out country lies helpless from the want
of a "protective system," the people, iu defi
ance of the much-loved and practised theory of
Free Trade, couie out boldly from the rank:* of
the corrupt democracy, and electioneer on the
side of the people. .Such was the case at our
election district, and such is known to be the
case tit Stoneratown and Hopewell. At tho
former place, soma of their best men came out
< peuJy in favor of the People, Popular ciove
reiguty, and a protective Taiitf, More anon.

The Press or (he Election.
j Forney's Press is not very jub-laot over the
rrsult of the election, hut seems very well
pleased with it. It sivs :
"At this vwiting.it looks as if almost evert
Congressional L conipti ni'e in Pennsylvania
has been defeated 1 So uiuch for those who
have preferred the patronage and favor of the
: Pres id nit to the con6der.ce of the peupie.—
: Thus tnuch for the Executive, who has chosen
to turn his back upon the iinuiGrtni doctrine
that the American people shall control their
own aff.irs in their cwn way, and who baa
dared to erect, in every district ia Pennsylva
nia, an offviil influence at ws, with the funda
mental principles ot' the Constitution. That
touch tor the tuw and startling idea that not
the Federal Unh tt, but that 'the President
must and sh ll be sustained.' But this result
: i- not only atttibutable to the uprising of the
; peopio against the betrayal of their lieprescii
| tattves and the gross desertion of the popular
; principle hy the Chief Magistrate of the Re
public ; but it is, at the same time, a tribute
to Pennsylvania, feeling, an ! to that idea which
is cherished by all our people— tbat of pro
tection to American industry."
The New York TnOune says :
"Let us not mis-sute nor overstate this
triumph. The Republicans have coutiibuted
nobly to it, but they havo not alone achieved
it. The great body of the Atnericaos have
heartily co-opcrated with them, aud the elabo
rate attempt to draw off votes on "Straight
Atnerieau" tickets in Philadelphia have had
little iffect. The union for Free Territory,
Pure Election and Protection to Home Indus
try, was too hearty and solid to bo shaken by
the tricks of demagogues bought and owned by
the common adversary.
Rut the Republicans and Americans united
•could not have won so sweeping a victory
without the powerful aid of the Douglas De
mocracy. These faithful devotees of tire doc
trine of Popular Sovereignty, organised and
led by John W. Forney, bad resolve i to punish
the recreants wbo devised and urged on the
Lcconipton fraud, and tbov have done it effe.it
ually. liuehauan is routed in his own State,
and Federal Subserviency to Slavery Propa
gandist!) baa received a blow frotu which it will
not soon recover. ALL HAIL, FREE PENN

A CROWING EDIT -RIAL —The Bedjord Ga
| Zfttt comes to us with an immense black roos
i ter covering the whole editorial page. The
rooster is crowing for the victory of the De
mocracy of Bedford county. Of eourae Bed
ford goes tor Buchanan, who honored it with a
visit last Summer, in company with Sir W.
• Gore Ouseley, who has since "sold" thocabtD*
in the affiir of Nicaragua.
We strongly suspect that that rooster was
prepared to crow over a Loco Eoco viotory
ihi State which didn't oouie off last Tuesday,
and consequently his proprietors could only
use bis clarion voice to illustrate the work of
Democracy in Bedford county. If our Lo®o
Foeo friends arc satisfied witb Tuesday's work
wo heartily congratulate them.— Daily Jie**-
