ATTEMPTED BRIBERY.
We have been informed by SAMUEL KET
TEIIMAN, ESQ., County Surveyor for this
county, that a prominent Republican offered
biui FIFTY DOLLARS if he would oppose
and electioneer against Hon. W. P. SCHKLL
Mr. Ketterman, like a man aDd a Democrat,
spurned tbe proffered bribe, sayiug that he did
not keep bis principles for sale. Tbe Dame of
the person who made this offer is withheld for
the present. This is another instance of the
fraud and corruption by which the Black Re
publicans carried the late election. Shall they
go uorebuked.— Bedjord Gazette.
How a plain tale will put down a liar. We
had a eonversatien with Nlr. Ketterman in our
office, a few days ago, in relation to the article
in the last Gazette, copied übove. He stited
to us, in presence of the hands in oar office,
"that he never authorized Mr. Meyers to pub
lih this article, that he did not thank him for
publishing it, that the person that made him tho
offer docs not live id Bedford County, that he
doe 3 not live in the Congressional district, that
ho does no l kuow whether tho man is a Repub
lican or a Bell man or what his politics are, and
that he believes him to he a personal euemy of
Schell." We urged Mr. Ketterman to prose
cute the man, but ho stated that be "would
rather have his neck cut off than do so or tell
Lis name!" The whole thing iook9 rather sus-
picious, and persons ean believe it or not, as
tbey choose, but to our mind it may have been
intended to cover some of tbe dark transactions
of a similar character of the friends of Mr.
Schell.
BI.AIR COUNTY NORMAL SCHOOL AND
SEMINARY.— We eall attention to the adver
tisement of this Institution, in this week's pa
per. It is located in Martinsburg, Blair Co.,
Pa., a healthy and beautifo! locality. The
Principals are Professors E. J. Osborne and
J. W. Diekerson, who ore both well known in
Bedford County—Mr. Osborne as Principal of
the Ailegheuy Mala and Female Seminary,
at Rsiusborg, which was brought into a flour
ishing condition by him. Mr. Diokerson has
been the teacher of the High School in this
place, and well liked by all. As a scholar,
ho stands high.
Ainbrolypcs! Ambrotype*!!
FRANK STEWART is still taking splendid
Ambrofypo Likenesses, at bis Car, in the
Square, nearly opposite the Court Honse.—
His pictures are unrivalled for beauty and
truthfulness, end are taken on tbe cheapest
tortus. Call on him and get your
and one for your sweet-heart or friend.
LINCOLN MEN!
The Looofocos are holding meetings all oror
the County for the pnrpQse jf earrying their
fusion Reading electoral Douglas and Breckin
ridge ticket. Dou't let yourselves be caught
napping but get out every Lincoln voter in
every district, and ypu will earry the County
high and dry for •'Honest CM J Abe."
Hare Ihe Wagons Keadj.
Lst all our friends in the different districts
Lave their wagons, buggies and horses on the
ground to briQg out the old, tbe careless, and
the sick. Have every vote oat, and Linooln
will ba elected. There is nothing to prevent
our carrying Bedford Connty, if our friends all
turnout next Tuesday.
LIME! LIME!
Messrs. Smith & Fisber have leased of Mr t
Fr. Naugle, the lime kno, just adjoining Bad
ford, where they keep constantly 00 h'ud the
best quality of lime. Farmers should pay at
tention to this matter.
Tbe official majorty of Col. A. 0. Curtm,
in Pennsylvania, is 32,164. The lalle as
pj'dished by us fast week was not quite com
plete.
The Great dwindle.
Tbe Douglas blowers and strikers ore circu
lating the story all over the county, that the
Breckinridge ticket had been withdrawn and
that there was no other ticket in tbe fieid now,
than tbe straight Douglas ticket.
The fact is just the ether way. It is tbe
Douglas ticket that has been withdrawn; the
Breckinridge ticket remains in tbe field, just
as it was nominated at Reading. The demo
crats, however, arc not a reading people, and
the most of them can be deceived with this
new lie.
At tbe meeting of the Douglas State Com
mittee, when the proposition was made to adopt
the Reading ticket, Mr. Doughterty moved to
strike from that ticket the names of Geo. M.
Keiin, Frederick A. Server, John G. Brenner,
Joel Lightoyr, John A. Ahl, H. N. Lee, Chas.
Kelly, Oliver P. James and Wra. C. Patter
son, who have either refused to pledge them
selves for, or have openly avowed their hostil
ity to, Stephen A. Douglas and Hersobcl V.
Johnston, the only regular nominees of tho
Democratic party for President and ice Pres
ident.
This.motioo was rejected, and the committee
thus resolved to adopt a ticket one-half of
which is composed of Breckinridge men, known
to be soch. The head of the tieket, Geo. M.
Keiru, is an open and avowed Breckinridge
man, and the Pittsburg Gazette says that N.
P. FettermaD, the elector for that district, is
also a Breckinridge man. And yet these men
are to be palmed off upon credulous democrats
as Douglas men and nothing else !
It makes no difference, however. The
Reading ticket cannot poll the vote given to
Foster. There are hundreds of men in this
State who voted for Foster, who will scorn to
vote for this deliberate cheat. Foster has
been beaten 32,000, and the Reading ticket
will be bcateo 60,000.
The Greeosburg Argus, a strong Douglas
paper, and the orgaD of Gen. Henry D. Fos
ter, in Westmoteland county, in its issue of
the 25th nit., speaking of the action of the
Douglas State Committee, says:
"How far this late aotion of the Welsh Com
mittee may satisfy tie steadfast and true De
mocrats who stood by the regular nominations,
in the hour of peril, we will not undertake to
say. For our part we will not toil our hands
by voting for any elector whose fidelity to the
nominees of the party we have reason to
doubt."
The Juniata Register, the Breckinridge or
gan of that county, iu its issue of the 25th
ult., says:
'•As far as it can he ascertained, the elect
ors are in their personal preference about
eqaully divided between Breckinridge and
Douglas, and if e'.eeted, it is supposed that
their personal choice will be carried out by
their votes."
Tbe Regibter gives the following as the rea
son why the Bell meu were uot invited to par
ticipate ia tbe swindle.
"Some of tbe National men are surprised
that no offer was made to the Bell and Everett
ruen to join in a common Electoral ticket -
Those who will look at the retuns of Octobor
need not be surprised for tbe returns have dem
onstrated that the Bell and Everett wen in this i
State aro either too weak for tbe encourage
ment 0/ such a bargain, or their old feelings
of animosity to tbe Democratic party is so
strong, that they prefer the eertain election of '
a Black Republican, thau to take a course !
which would render the electioa of Bell a mat- \
of doubt and uncertainty."
Notwithstanding the straight Douglas tiokct ,
has been withdrawn, yet a considerable number
of the real and honest frieods of Douglas have
determined to support it. On our outside we
publish two articles from the Philadelphia Press
on the subject, which contain the names of the
straight Douglas ticket. Read the3e articles.

KIDNAPPING.
An atrocious act of kidnapping was com
mitted in Cumberland Valley, about six miles
stouth of Bedford, on Thursday last. Two
little girls, about six yoars old, children of
George love, a respectable colored man, were
playing almost within sight of the house, when
a rnau rushed out of the woods, snatched up
one of the ohildreu and ran away with it.—
The other child hastened home and gave tbo
alarm, hut thcie were, unfortunately, no meu
about the bouse at the time, and the kidnap
per thus got a fair start with his victim. It is
evident that the villain, whoever he is, was
well acquainted with tho premises, and the
habits of its occupants. It is believed that
the child was carried to Maryland, nod sold
into slavery. The parents were liberated
about ten years ago by a liumano Virginia mas
ter, who, besides granting them freedom, gave
them means to buy the laud upon whioh they
live, which thev have been cultivating ever
siuco with care and industry. They are
greatly distressed about their stolen child, bat
we earnestly hope that it will yet be recover
ed. We aiso hope the villainous perpetrator
of the deed may be discovered and compelled
to do the State service in the penitentiary.—
Hanging is too good for the mercenary wrctcb.
Tho kidnappers have heretofore driven a good
trade iu catching fugitive slaves, but as that
article of commerce baa become somewhat
scarce of late, owing to the vigilance of the
misters, they are now trying their hands at
stealing free children.

THE LAST OF WALKER.
Wo have finally received the particulars of
the closing scene in the career of this reoowr.-
ed filibuster. He was forced to surrender on
the 10th of Beptombcr, and was thrown, heavily
ironed, iuto the prison at Truxillo. He im
mediately sent for the chaplain of the port,
protested his faith as a Roman Catbolio, and
was seen thereafter almost constantly kneeling
at the feet of the priest io front of a small
altar; on whioh, by the dim light of the ta
pers, the image of Jesus was distinguished.—
Among other things, ho said, "1 aui resigned
to die : uiy politioal career i concluded."
On tlio lltb ult., at 7 o'clock P M., Walk
er was notified of his sentence of death, and
to thin startling message the only reply he
niado was to ask at what hour it would be ex
ecuted, and whether be had time to write.
Oo the morning of the 12th, at 8 P. M. f
iha culpit inarched to the place of execution,
iu the old Plaza dd Armas. He walked with
a crucifix iu his hand, upou which be bent all
his regards, looking neither to the right nor to
' the left, but listening piously to the psalms
which the priest reoited in his ear. He en
tered the hollow square formed by the soldiery
in (he piaco of execution, and there, full of
rtsiguafion, he prououueed the following v.ords,
"1 am a Rom an Catholic. The war which 1
made upon Honduras, in accordance with the
suggestions of some Kuatinoes, was unjust.—
Those who accompanied tue are not to blame.
I alone am guiliy. I ask pardon of the peo
ple. 1 receive death with resignation—would
that it might bo for tli good of society."—
( Tb£se were his last words. Teu sharp rifle,
cracks followed, ar.d William Walker was no
more ! His dying w'sh was a prophecy as well
—a prophecy that was fulfilled within the
next few moments. His death ts "for the
good of society." There cau be no donbt of
that.
Walker's plucky conduct aod his dying cou
fessiou may do something, perhaps, to modify
the expressions of the joy that is felt at his
"taking off," but they will not remove it.—
The emotion is almost universal and
real.— Buffalo Express.
HIS ENEMIES PRAISE HIM
Tho HOB. Wm. L. Goggin on Thursday even
ing addressed the Bell and Everett partv in
Petersburg, Vs. His views upon the stibility
of the Uniou were clearly expressed in the fol
lowing words: "There could be no danger of
a dissolution of the Union, no matter who was
elected." Ilis opinion of Mr. Lincolu finds no
less clear expression, io the following lan
guage.
Dutitig the whole course of uiy connection
with him in the House of Representatives, I
must say that I bavoever known him to be a
gentleman, fie is not what the Breckinridge
party iosinuate hiui to be. I wish to do justice
on both sides. [Cheers.] If you waut to know
who Mr. Lincoln is, go and ask S. A. Douglas,
with whom he stumped every couuty iu tho
State of Illinois. [Cheers.J Yes, go and ask
Mr. Douglas whether Abe Liuooln is a rail
splitter, whether he is a Democratic mauler or
upt. [CoutiuujJ laughter, aud cries of 'Good ']
It wus uiy goou foriuue, while I was a member
of the House of Representatives to ha on a
Committee with him. 1 was cbairmau, and 1
will say that no man on that Committee worked
more industriously than be did. He is a man
of a high order of talent, aud when ho spoke
no mau was listened to by those who wcro in
that House as visitors with more appareut sat
isfaction. His private aa well as public char
acter was froc from stain or blemish.— Buffalo
Express.
TUB DOUGLAS MEN TO BK CURATED.—
Tho effect of withdrawing tho Douglas electo
ral tioket and supporting the Reading ticket,
is thus set forth by "Oecasional," in Forney's
Press:
"Under the Crosson plot the Douglas men
were to be cheated; under the Reading elector
ral ticket—as it is left since the withdrawal of
the Crosson resolutions— the Douglas men[are
to have no chance whatever —and all who voto
fcr the fusiou ticket will do so with their eyes
open to the fact that they are assisting Jobs
C. Breckinridge."
Tbo Douglas men, therefore, who vote tbt
Reading ticket will be cheated, if they - vote
for it üßder the belief that the men upon it
aro for Douglas. They have a right, however,
to cheat themselves, if tbey choose.
SPITEFUL FUSION.—The National Demo
cratic State Committee of New York, of whioh
John A. Green is chairman, met at the Astor
House on Wednesday. The Ereokinridgc and
Lano elcct"TS_teiidered their resignations, and
an "address of the State Committee to the
National Democrats" was reported. The ad
dress is a queer document. It abuses the
Douglas and Bell man roundly, and then
adopts their complete electoral ticket thus:
"We consider it good policy 'to adopt their
complete electoral tioket for our own purposes.
Wo turn their butteries against themselves.—
Wo occupy their own ground. We make thera
our allies in spite of themselves. We compel
them to be our voluntary ooadjutors in the
election of our Presidential candidates, unless
they resort to the treacherous alternative of
defeating tbeir own eleotors."
CALIFORNIA FOR LINCOLN TBO subjoined
special dispatch was received yesterday, by
telegraph, from St. Joseph, and came through
to that poiet by the Pony Express from San
Francisco. It adds immeasurably to the chance
now presented, that Lincoln will oarry every
Northern State.— St. Louis Dem.

October 4th, 1860. )
To Messrs. McKte <s* Fishback : —Returns
from the various county organizations and
clubs, to this office, show a Republican strength
in this State of thirty-eight thousand five
hundred votes. If the news from the October
elections in the East should prove to be aucb

for Lincoln. On this you may raly.

TO EARNEST DOUGLAS MEN.
Can any one "name a tingle State in which j
the Breckinridge men are more numerous than
the Douglas ruen in which the former have
"fused," or allowed the latter so much as a
single Elector on their ticket 1 There is not
one from Maine to Oregon. In every Slavo
State the UreckinridgeM go for "the whole or
cone." Who does not see, then, that for
Douglas men to vote Fusion Tickets where tfity
are strongest is simply putting the knife to
Douglass throat? Breckinridge has already
12 States in the House to Douglas's 2 ; and
this policy will give Breckinridge at least 100
votes to Douglas's 50, roppoairg N. York N.
Jersey, and Indiana could be carried for
Fusion tickets. No man can honestly say that
Fusion gives Douglas the ghost of a chance,
either with the People or in Congress. Do
real Douglas men mean to be used to elect
Breckinridge? Pause end consider-!—JV. Y.
Tribune.
A GOOD DISTRICT TO LIVE IN.— There is
an election district in St. Liwreooe county, N.
Y., (Silas Wright's old home,) wuiob is 'en
miles long and two miles wide. The whole
number of votes given for Governor in 1858
was 160. Morgan had 150, Burrows 6, Park
er 4. All of the Burrows men a'e now Lin
coln men ; two of the Parker men experienced
religion last winter, and one of tbem a short
time ago said that he had always been a Demo
crat, but since his conversion, he uow looked
at these things very differently. At the
present time thefr is not a mau in the district
with sufficient assurance to declare himself for
cither the Northern or Southern Democracy.
THE MURDERED METHODIST MINISTER.—
Rev. Mr. Bewly, who was hung in Texas by a
pro-slavery mob a short time since, on suspicion
of abolitionism, the Albany Journal says will
be remembered by many whe atteuded the
General Conference at liufLlo last May. He
represented the Arkansas Conference, and was
recognized as a peaceful, humble, and devoted
evangelist His views of Slavery were of the
mildest character, and he would be deemed the
last man to thrust bis views offensively—mild
and conservative tho' they were—upon any
community.
Oa his removal to Texas a few months since,
he carried with him testimonials of bis humili
ty and devotion to his work. Hut be was a
Methodist. That, in Texas, is ueetned the
equivalent of Abolitionism ; anu the devoted
minister of Christ, guilty of no crime, and oo
the merest i-uspicion that he cherished offensive
opinions, was hung up like a murderer!
THE BEI.L VOTE.—The vote of Philadelphia
for Governor iast week was est—
For Curtin, 39,833 For Foster, 41,119.
For Members of Congress the vote stood—
Lincoln 39,459 Pern. 36,301 Bell 6,211.
Showing tb-at of the Bell uieo 374 voted for
Curtin, while 5,818 voted for Foster. It was
doubtless so throughout the State. Now that
the Democratic Slate Committee has definitely
refused to put any 801 l men on their Electoral
Ticket, the Bell vote must be cast for its own
Eleotor*! Ticket, which of ltsylf wnpld carry
op Liucolu's majority to §O,OOO. — JV. Y.
Tribune.
LINCOLN A NATIONAL MAN.—In the speech
of Hon. Thomas Effing, Gen. Harrison's Sec
retary of the Treasury, made at (Jhiilicotbo,
Ohio, io speaking of Mr. Liuooln, he said:
"I doubt oot, that from the first to the last
—in his inaugural address and in his final mes
sage— he will show himself the President of
the nation, and not of a section or party. For
tunately, be will not be thrown on an extreme
party for suppiit. The conservative interest
nominated, and that will also elect hint."
<sen. Amos H. Prescott, the latest made
President of the American State Committee,
N Y., and ono of the chief engineers in fusing
the Hell and Douglas forces at Syracuse, bus
come out against the new fusioo with Breckin
ridge, which he denounoes a scheme to build
up the disunionists, keep the present corrupt
dynasty in power, through the foisting of Joe
Lane into the Presidency. OeD. Prescott
avows himself henceforth for Lincoln.
How LINCOLN RECEIVED THE ELECTION
NEWS.—The Chicago Press and Tribune says:
We hear from Springfield that Mr. Lincoln re
ooived the news of Tuesday's work with that
equanimity that marks the man in all emergen
cies. Wednesday morning he received bis
friends as usual, and no one unaware of his
position, would have suspected from his deport
ment or conversation that the contest had more
than a transient interest to him. lie bears
himself gallantly and well.
ANOTHER OF IIERSCIIEL'S SPKEOHEB.—Hei
schel V. Johnson said, in hia speech at Terre
Haute, "Aue Linooln, the great Rail Splitter
—I own twenty boys (uegroes;) any oue can
beat him at a day's work splitting rails, and
give two hundred. I would prefer oue of them
for President so help me God to Abe Lincoln.
LINCOLN AND JACKSON.—In 1828, Gen.
Jackson's majority over John Quincy Adams,
in Pennsylvania, was 50,804 votes—the largest
majority ever given by Pennsylvania to any
Presidential candidate. We expect Lincoln
to do better than that. His majority over all
the opposing daodidates will hardly be less
than 60,000 votos.
ERUPTIONS, SALT RFIEUM, ERYSIPELAS.
It is now generally admitted that all eruptive
diseases depend upon some internal or constitu
tional cause, and that to use washes or ointments for
them is a sure way to injure the system, and only
to drive in, not to cure the disease. But HUMPH
REYS' SPECIFIC HOMEOPATHIC SALT RHEUM PILLS
are a true specific for all such diseases. They cure
Salt Rheum, Barber's Itch, Erysipelas, Pimples on
the Face, Ringworm, and Nettle Rash, by curing
the cause upon which tbey depend, and by restor
ing the skin to the state of health and purity.—
Thus, not only is the disease cured, but the soft
ness and beauty of the complexion restored.

The Chicago Press and Tribune says the re
port is uot true that Lincoln has hired Douglas
to go round and make speeches; but it is true
that the Republican State Committee could ex
pend a little money to no better advantage than
to employ him to stump the close and doubtful
Legislative districts in Illinois.
