BEDFORD INQUIRER. BEDFORD, Pa. Friday Morning. J 4W. 21. 1859. "FEARLESS AND FREE." 9. OVER—Editor and Proprietor. More Misrepresentation. Ihr Gazette, (if last week has ait article re viewing Gcv. Pucker's Annuel Message, and attempts to be very severe on the Governor on account of Lis opposition to the infamous course of Buchanan in relatiou to Kansas. The Ga• zette, however, iu this article, misrepresents facts considerably wbeD it says that "tee find that a Democratic a J ministration has, virtually reduced our State Debt, in one year, the sum of twelve million of Dollars.''' T bat the iiuie Debt has been decreased that amount nithiu ihe year is correct, but it was not the Locofoco administration that accom plished this happy rpsult. It is well known, and the truth of history will bear us out, that the old Whig party of this State was always ! n favor of the Sale of the Public Works, which ho? accomplished this happy result.— Ihe people of this State, by a solemn vote, and by an immeuse majority, some fifteen years ago, decided that these Works should be sold. Anci why where they not then disposed off— .Simply for the reason that the Locofoco party defeated the wishes of the people. At several other times acts were passed by the opposition in favor of the sale, but in every instance, the wishes of the people, were defeated by the very same Locofoco'pait,.■ It is well known that Gov. Pollock used the whole power of his" administration Jo secure the passage of a bill tor the sale. The present bill was advocated and passed by the Americans aud Republicans. The late Senator from this district, IJon. Fr. Jordan used bis best efforts to secure the sale, and to him, a? much as to any oue in the State, are wo indebted for the result of the reduction of our State debt to the amount of Twelve Millions of Dollars! Ihe Locofoco leaders of ibis county denounced him in no measured terms at tLc time for the part be took iu the matter. The Gazetie koy s full well that its party, through the exertions of Jer. S. Black, Buchanan's Attorney General, and other lead ers of the party, attempted to defeat the pres eut bill for the sale before the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania. But, happily fotbe interests of the suffering tax-payer* of the State, hey wore ingioriomdy defeated. All honor to the eppositiou for the auspicious result. The State Debt has been " virtually reduced in one year, the sum of twelve millions of dol lars ! The great People's Party of the State scoured the result, in opposition to Locofoco ism, and to them be all the glory and honor of the reduction of the State Debt , which was solely contracted by Locofocoism. DIVISION OF THE COUNTY. We understand thai an effort is now being mode by a few interested parlies in Blair coun ty, and in Middle Woodberry township, in this County, to liavo that township annexed to Blair. Bedford Couuty has heretofore been unjustly dealt with, in having her best territo ry lopped off. She is now reduced to moderate siae, aud it would be unjust to still further re duce her territory. The majority of the peo ple of that Township would be opposed to it, aud out of that district not- ten men in the County would favor if. Our County is large ly iu debt, contracted as much for the benefit of that Township, us for any other part of the County; benee the injustice of the movement. We don't apprehond any serious effort before the Legislature on ibe subject, und presume Messrs. Schell, Williams and Walker,will have an eye on the matter THE LEGISLATURE. The Legislature has as yet been doing very little of a general character. We notice noth ing of interest to Bedford county among the proceedings. Mr. Schel! has introduced a bill rnto the Senate, prohibiting the issue, by the banks, of notes of a less denomination than twenty dollars. The evident object of this bill is political bunccrob. The result of the pas sage of such an act would be that onr State would be flooded with the worthless trash of other States, and not as the Gazette thinks, an increased circulation of gold and silver. We ore glad to record the fact that our rep resentatives, Williams ac I Walker, have in every instance in which the question bis come op, voted in favor of reducing the pay to SSOO. WANTED —An active, energetic man, to canvass Bedford Connty, for the sale of "Wash ington's -Account Book," one of the most re markable works over introduced to the public, being a foe simile of Uen. Washington's ac count with the Government during the Revo lutionary War, engraved from the origtoal, tiled io the office at Washington. For full particulars, address WM. M. POR TER, General Ageut for Pennsylvania, "Her ald" Office, Carlisle, Pa. Joseph M. Church, ooe of the American members of tho Legislature from Philadelphia, was most 1 ratally assailed on Friday last, in Harrisburg, by a bog-irotter, named Donovan, who has been claiming his scat. Not content with being rejected by the people of the dis trict in which he lived, he follows the gentle man of their choice to the Capital, and there challenges him to a duel, and upon the teturn of tho challenge, with a note expressing con tempt for its author, he assails Mr. Church on his way from the Capitol with a shillalah and horse whip. And upon his arrest, a pistol and billy were fouud upon bis person. Tho House very properly passed a resolution denying the Irish ruffian the usual privileges, and excluding him from the floor. NEW FIUM. —Dr. F. C. REAMER has taken into partnership, in the Drug and Book busi ness, Mr. SAMUEL J. WAT, who has been well known in Bedford, for years, as the courteous assistant of the Doctor. They are gentleman ly and accommodating, and the public will find them the right kind of men for that business. STATE TREASURER. Eli Slifer, former State Treasurer, was, on Monday last, elected State Treasurer, bj the Pennsylvania Legislator*, over Hon. H. S. Magraw, the pro'eut incumbent, by a vote of 80 to 4-3. Mr. Slifer heretofore made one of the best officers we ever had, and we are glad to record his present suocess over his oppo nent. BROADTOP. In another column we publish a statistical table, prepared for us, by John Fulton, Esq., Civil aud Mining Engineer of the Broadtop Rail Road Company, who has also been em ployed to survey the route for a Rail Road from Hopewell to Bedford. We take the lib erty of inserting the following extract from 1 Mr. Fulton's letter accompanying the state ment: '•The increase of the coal shipments of 1858 over that of 1857 is 27,000 tons; the demand, I believe, has increased in a larger ratio. The number of miners at work in 1857 was 161 now there are 261, with house capacity for 530. Several new openings are being made, and ex tensive improvements constructed for tho busi ness of this year. Price of coal at Hunting don, $1.50 to SI.BO per ton. "All the mines in this region are worked by drifts above water level, thus discharging the water opened by working; there has not been observed up to this any generation of deleteri ous gasses, and accidents to miners are of very rare occurrence. The steady iocrcaso of the shipments of coal from this region during the past year is the best testimonial that can he presented, as to its very superior quality and adaptability to the various uses in steam gen erating, and other purposes to which it has been applied." Col. A. K. MuClure of the House of Rep resentative at Harrisburg, has our thanks for various favors. The bight of impudence has been reached. Gov. Stewart has issued a requisition on Gov. Medary, of Kansas, for Capt. Montgomery, who is accused of certain unlawful habits, among others, taking the lives of Border Ruf fians and taking possession of their property. It is quite proper that violations of the law should be punished. It is essential to the peace of the Border that murderers should be punish ed. It has, however, been the custom of "the authorities" to reward with the patronage of the general government those who have dis tinguished themselves as murderers in the his tory of Kausas. Only now, when thero is reason to believe that a number of pro-slavery partisans have been killed by those who assume to be doing tho fighing of the Free State cause, has there been any symptoms of su active de sire in official circles to bring the red-handed men to justice. This time, the Governor of Missouri is greatly exercised. And the Gov ernor of Kansas displays a fatal facility for deepening the difficulty and making the old sore incurable. He is anxious for troops to put down the rebellion. The people of Kan sh, arc, however, quite tired of displays of military force among ihein. They loathe tho spectaole of a company of diagooos acting as illustrations of the beauties of" the Adminis tration's system of popular sovereignty. If the hordes of ruffians from Southern Missouri invade the neighboring portions of Kansas, and Gov. Medary makes a demonstration with dra goons, it is probable that ihe bloodiest picture in the book of Kansas is yet to be written.— Cin. Com. l'hc suggestions made by Mr. Buchanan, in Lis last message, relative to annexing Cuba to the United States, fall stillborn. We hopo that the American people are getting a proper regard for those who would seduce them into fillibustering by appealing to their cupidity.— Instead of culisiing the national appetite for addition to our territory, let men in position cultivate a love of country and a regard for national honor. We don't want to appear before the world as a nation of robbers aud pirates, as we should were we to follow the teachings of Buchanan's Oatend manifesto and the prac tice of bis southern slave trading friends.— May it not be hoped, that the nation is taking a sober second though' on these matters, and that we are returning to first principles, when national honor and patriotism were the glow ing sentiment* of the American heart t The Buchauau edi ors are not plcaed with Gov. Packer's Message. They think he has disturbed the barui:ny of the party by refer ring to the Kansas question ! They seem to forget that the President his been disturbing that harmony by proscribing every Democrat who would not bow down to bis despotic no tions relative to Kansas. Gov. Pucker is not willing to wear the chains of a master, and these Loco editors who find fault with him would show moro manhood were they more like Inns. BEDFORD mOUIRSR.

King yesterday received a let ter from Mr. John G. Harris, a well known Mis souri river pilot, who has lately soiled with the gold fever, and emigrated to Pike's Peak, from which we make the following extract: AURORA, NOV. 19, 1858. 1 have arrived at Cherry Valley, and find it situated on the South Platte, 350 miles from Fort Kearney. We have buiit a bouse, and expect to move into it to morrow. Our trip out was pleasant. A word about the mioes. A man can make from $3 to $lO per day. There is gold all over the coun try, and old miners say that if a man will work, he will do well at mining anywhere. 1 aui well pleased with my trip, aud am perfeetly satisfied that I made it. 1 think this will prove a good country for raising almost any kiud of grain and garden products. We have plenty of game of almpst every description, from the buffalo down to the squirrel deer, turkey aud antelope in abun dance. Youra, respectfully, JOHN G, HARRIS. The Mouroe Doctrine. The National Intelligencer has a long aud elaborate history of the Monroe Doctrine, con cluding thus ; We have thus endeavored to lay before our readers a faithful history of a much mooted topic in Ameticau politics. Let us briefly recapitu late the points wo have as we thiuk, established beyond successful controversy. 1. That the Monroe declaration of 18*23, in both its phases; had its origin in the changed relations and new responsibilities imposed on the several States of tho Amerioan Continents arisiug especially from the emancipation of the Spanish Colonics, and rendering it conductive to the interest of all that tha American Conti nents should not be subject to future coloniza tion by any European power as waste aud un occupied territory and that no foreign State or htates should be allowed to intervene in the do rntfeua duaiia of any American people for the purpose of suppressing republieau institutions. 2. lhat the Mouroe declaration, in so far as it related to the thieatCDed intervention of the Holy Alliance in the concerns of the Spanish Amcric&u States, was intended to meet a par ticular contingency of eveuts and therefore pass ed aw*y with the occasion which called it forth. 3. That the Monroe doctrine, in so far as it relates to the colonization of the American Con tinent by any European Powor was not intend ed to bind tho United States to guard the ter ritory of the New Wprid from such occupation by European States; but was intended to indi cate, as an important principle of American public policy, that "each State should guard by its own means against, the establishment of any future European colony," within the jurisdiction cf its flag. That is, the Americau Continents were no longer held open to colonization as de relict Territory, capable of occupation by right of discovery and settlement. 4. That the "Monroe doctrine" was not in any proper sense "a pledge," and as such was especially discarded by tie Democratic pur ty. The current interpretation of the "Monroe doctrine" has, therofore. no foundation in the truth of history; and defended at all, must be defended on its intrinsic merits, as a proposition wholly distinct and different from that which was conceived by its author or affirmed by its first promulgator, whose destiny it has been to give bis honored name to a principle for which he never contended. Pitching In. 1 lie Chicago Times , the Douglas organ of Il linois, has opened its batteries upoD Mr. Buch anan iu a terrible manner, since the re-election of Douglas to the Senate. The following pas sages will show the style iu which Mr. B.'s grey i hairs are combed by the terrible journalist: "Two years have nearly elapsed sines Mr. Buchanan commenced his administration, and these have been two years of deep modification aud disaster to the Democratic party. He has devoted one entire year of it to the dcstiuction of the Democracy of Illinois ; and that Democ racy to-day are stronger than they could possi bly have been bad he been their leader. Ha has been defeated by the Republicans wherever ho has endeavored to elect bis own friends, and has been defeated by the Democracy wherever he has sought to elect Republicans. It is cause for rejoicing to know that no man who, in Con gress, refused to abandon the Democratic plat form at Mr. B's command, has been defeated by the people, and, while we regret the eleva tion of a Republican majority in Congress, we caunot mourn over the defeat of those who abandoned principle in order to gratify the maligu counsels of a viudictive cabal of Presi uentiai aspirants. '"Ac know that .Mr. Buchanan is advanced in years; we know that be has held office during a long period, we know that his head has been silvered over by the hand of time, but what was said of another is not the less true of hiui, that the man "who, after having seeu the consequenc es of a thousand errors, continues still to blond er, and whose age has only added obstina-y to stupidity, is surely the object of eithor abhor rence or contempt." OPPOSES BUCHANAN. We learn from the Chester Republican that Mr. Dougherty, one of Mr. Buchanan's warm est supporters during the Prosidentail campaign, has turned agues: the President. That paper remark*: "Many of our readers in this Bo rough, and elsewhere in our county, will recol lect the capital speeches made by Daniel Dougherty, Esq , ia the Buchanan campaign. They will also recollect the excitemeut he cre ated in the Democratic ranks, and the vast num bers who rallied to bear the eloqucnee which fell from bis lips io advocacy of the claims of the present Chief Magistate. It is fair to say that he did good service in the cause, and that his exertions, here and elsewhere, contributed no little to the success of the party to which he was attached. Since turn he has been making another speeoh, a little different, it is true, from those with which be entertained his hearers du ring the oampaign to which we have reference, but none the less interesting on that nccount. At the reception of Hon. Stephen A. Douglas, tn Philadelphia, on Monday night last, he was called for, and, in the course of his remarks, in reference to Mr. Buchanan's abandonment of the principles upon which he was eleoted, be said : "Aye, we who mide this man President, whose unpopular name would havo rotted in the dust from whence it sprung, and moulder ed in oblivion, bad not we, led on by Forney— our Warwick—dug from its sordid mire the useless ore, and stamped it with a diadem."— [Bix cluers.] The language is not very complimentary to the Chief Magistrate, but it will do, coming from one of his former advocates." ' ( TES£A!ICE AMD VITTI.ES." Under thishapny title, the Warren Telegraph comments upon tbe politioal discrimination ex ercised by the President in tbe selection of bis guests at dinner, and suggests the following form of a card of admission : U P RES ID EAT ML DLYA'ER—ADMIT THE BEARER. —Good for this day only.— Not good to any Democratic member of Con gress re-elected against tho President's will.— Leoonipton members, rejected by their consti tuencies, can obtain first-class tickets on anpli cation to the Slate Department. No an ti-Le conipton Democrat who has not given in al lowed to come io. Little Giants positively ex cluded. Canes, bludgeons, aud other weapons, to be deposited at the door, to guard against accidents. Deserved seals for those who ap pear in coats of Eoglish manufacture. Any excess of self-respect beyond forty grains to each person will be rated as extra. Character at the sole risk of the owner. No ticket genu ine without the written sigcature of JAMES BUCHANAN. REMARKABLE GOLD DISCOVERIES. Quite an excitement was created in the city yesterday by the arrival of James Blackstone, one of Russell, Majors A (Jo's wagon masters, with several nuggets of gold, concerning the discovery of which the following account is given: Mr. Blackstone Wis in charge of a rehirn train, with which he arrived in tl" vieia?*y of Ash Hollow on or about Nov. 22d. He here indulged in a Buffalo Hunt, and, after an ex citing chase, went to a small lake about six miles from Ash Hollow, on the Platte River, for the purpose of getting a drink. He was here sur prised y discovering deposits of gold in the sand, over ninety dollars worth of which h? picked up in a few hours. One of the nuggets alone is worth !wcnty-iwo dollars; and can be seen at the store of Rusaele, Majors & Waddell, ou Main street.— Leavenworth Timet. ANOTHER BRITISH OUTRAGE.—Insults to the Americas flag by English officials follow one another so rapidly that they begin to be regard ed as common-place affairs, scarcely worthy of coutmen*. Nothing can be ntore plain than that the English Miuistry holds the American Government in utter contempt; knowing that while the Loco Foco party is in power here, nothing will bo done to rescDt any indignity which may be put upon us. Y\ e hope that the organs of the Administra tion will no longer pretend to feel indignation when they record an English insult to the A met iean flag, for there is oo longer any one stupid enough to be humbugged by their blus ter.—Daily News. SELLING A \V IFE KOU ssoo. —Tbe Ballston, (N. \ ) Journal says a resident of tho town of Malta, Saratoga county, a few days siuce sold I Ins wife for and in consideration of tbe sum of : five hundred dollars. His wife had been sick for a number of years, occasioned by a fall she received in her own aud has been con stantly failing until she is unable to speak, or move hand or foot. Her husband in making sale of hts farm, made a deduction of five hun dred dollars on the sale, in consideration that the purchaser should provide for and maniain his wife during her lifetime, and that be should be freed lroui all embarrassments with regard to ber. Santa ADU3, tbe ex-Dictator of Mexico, has recently purchased an estate on the Island of St. Tuoiuas for $40,000. His wife, disgusted with bis brutalities, has foft him and gone to Havana.
