The puffing business is played out with ii* un less our terms, 15 cents aline, are strictly com plied with, nor do we make any reduction on our advertising to accommodate our best friends. I here is no use for us to establish prices if we do not be governed by ihem, and we shall hereafter as heretofore, know no fa voritism. We hope those persons desiring '•to use our columns will save time by examin ing our terms and complying with them. —tf. We take great pleasure in returning '■our thanks to the numerous subscribers of the lxy! irkk for the prompt manner in which •they have come forward and paid their sub scripfckm in advance. We believe that we *have tfce best paying in the State. We *re also very highly gratified at the nu merous subscriptions which we have received; blaring Court week upwards of twenty volun tarily gave us their names without any exer tion on our part, and better than ull this, paid in advance. The .Inqimrkr has almost dou bled its circulation witbin the last two years, it is now rapidly approaching 1.400. between 1,100 and 1,200 of this number are circulated in Bedford county, making it one of the best advertising mediums in Southern Pennsylva nia. Tbis circulation then, we have no hesi tation in saying, exceeds the bona fide circu lation attained by any other journal in this county at least 500. This is certainly very encouraging, and with a little more effort' on the part of our friends the Inquirer will go into the hands of two-thirds of the Union men in the county, when we succeed in ac complishing this feat, Bedford county will give us a clear Union majority of three hundred. Friends, there are twenty-six hundred Union voters in the county, the Inquirer ought to be in the hands of two thousand of them at the least calculation. We are giving as much reading matter as any county paper published, and we are excluding all the demoralizing advertisements which too frequently crowd the columns of the country press. In a very short time we will be clear of them entirely when we will not likely renew the contracts. Friends, spread intelligence it is the safe guard of Republican institutions. —tf.

DURBOKBOW, Cheinut! I nion Co. Com, Mi A. PdiMitj f've RATI FIC A TIO N. The Union men of Philadelphia Rntifv their nominations— A vast gathering at .National Hall—Speech of Hon. John Cessna. Ihe people of Philadelphia assembled on Saturday night, in large numbers and with great enthusiasm, at National Hall, to ratify the nominations made by the late Republican Convention, and to listen to the distinguished speakers who had accepted invitations to- ad dress them. There were present upon the floor a great many prominent citizens. The meeting was marked by the utmost enthusiasm. Hon. John Cessna, Chairman of the State Central Committee, on opening the meeting, said: CITIZENS or PHILADELPHIA—We are about to organize the first mass meeting of the po litical campaign of 1860 in the Keystone State. It is right and proper that this work should commence in the great metropolis of our commonwealth. The city whose sons were among the first to respond to the call of their country, whose means have contributed so largely for the last four years to the cause of the Union, whose fires of patriotism have con stantly burned brightly through the whole night of gloom and darkness, and whose pa triotic daughters have ever been hastening to the field of" battle, before the smoke of the battle had passed away, to care for the woun ded and alleviate the pangs of the dying, may well be among the first to declare her posi tion on the great issues raised by the war and now presented for adjustment by the Ameri can people. One year ago and the representatives of a great political organization, in National Con vention assembled, pronounced the war for the preservation of the Union a failure; and the papers, speakers, and leaders of that or ganization, during the entire campaign of 1864, proclaimed that war could not restore the Union, that the re election of our late la- merited and patriotic President, Abraham Lincoln, would protract the struggle, fill the land with untold horrors, and finally over throw and destroy the republic of our fathers and rear a great military despotism on its ru ins. The friends of the government boldly and fearlessly met the issues thus presented. The people, by their verdict at the polls, by a majority unprecedented in the history of the republic, recorded their will. The enemies of liberty in foreign lands stood appalled at the result. The friends of the Union every where took new courage. Rebels trembled, and the heart of the rebellion grew sick, and sank in the bosom of treason, and the friends of traitors in our own midst hid away, and many of them deny now that they ever advocated the doctrines, or made the prophecies which composed the entire burden of their songs of 1864. The war is now over. The' promises and pledges of our friends, made iu 1864, have all been kept and fulfilled. Those of our po litical adversaries have all been dissipated, and proved hollow, delusive and false. Thanks to the heroism, courage and skill of American soldiers, sailors and officers, and to the God of battles, our nation is saved and the good old republic of our fathers still lives. Sweet peace has again spread her gentle wings over our once nappy and still beloved land. The sound of trumpets, the roar of cannon, the noise of musketry, the tread of armies, the victorious cheers of our brave soldiers, and the sad and sickening groans of the wounded are no longer heard throughout our borders. To-day our nation stands forth more bright than ever before, as a beacon to the down trodden and oppressed throughout the world, as a terror to the tyrants of the earth, as an asylum to the oppressed of all nations, and as the wonder ana admiration of the lovers of liberty everywhere. The issues of the coming political struggle in Pennsylvania are already made up. The importance of a proper settle ment and determination of these issues can not be over-estimated. The past history as well as the present position of our State enti tle and will secure for her great weight in the settlement >f all questions of national policy. The representatives of the political organi zation with which you are supposed to sympa thize declared as follows: "The Union party of Pennsylvania, in State Convention assem bled, declare: That as representatives of the loyal people of the Commonwealth we rever ently desire to offer our gratitude to Almighty God, whose favor has vouchsafed victory to the national arms, enabled us to eradicate the crime of slavery from our land, and to render treason against the republic impossible forev ermore ; and next to rlim our thanks are due and are hereby tendered to our brave soldiers and sailors, who by their endurance, sacrifi ces, and illustrious heroism, have secured to their country, peace, and to the downtrodden everywhere an asylum of liberty : who have shown that the war for the restoration of the Union is not a failure, and whose valor has proven for all time, the fact that this govern ment of the people, by the people, for the people, is as invincible in its strength as it is beneficent in its operation." In contrast with the doctrine here stated, the representatives of our political opponents in convention recently assembled, have also presented a platform of their principles. In substance and effect they have declared that "war existed as a fact upon the advent of the successful party in 1860 to the seat of power." That "slaughter, debt and disgrace are the results of our late civil war." That the as sassins of our late President were murdered by military commissions, and no more mur ders of the kind would be permitted, whether it be the Andersonviile butcher, the importer of loathsome diseases or the great second Lu cifer who now chafes and foams in his cell at Fortress Moiiroe, and who for so long a time has been their beau ideal of a stern statesman and a Christian gentleman. They add in ex press terms that "the men and the party ad ministering the Federal government since 1861 have betrayed their trust, violated their sacred obligations, disregarded the commands of the fundamental law, corruptly squandered the public money, perverted the whole gov ernment from its original purpose, and there by have brought on untold calamities upon the country." The measures of the administration of Abraham IJncoln were submitted to his coun trymen at the election of 1864, for ratification or condemnation. It would seem as if a de cent respect for the opinions of their fellow men might have prevented the folly and ma lignity of the late so-called Democratic con vention at Harrisburg, as exhibited in the adoption of their platform. It is perfectly manifest that they have not excepted the re sults of the war, nor are they prepared to bow to its decrees. Again, fellow-citizens, they have forced upon you these issues. It will be for you to decide by your action in this cam paign, whether the war just closed shall pro duce substantial results, or whether all the blood and treasure of the nation have been -expended and shed in vain. We intend to be merciful, but our mercy must be tempered with justice. We ask not, we wish not ven geance. But indiscriminate mercy to the en emy is danger and injustice to ourselves. Whenever and wherever our late adversa ries come in a true spirit of sorrow and re pentance, sheathe the sword, and promise to obey the law in the future, we will extend to them the right hand of fellowship ar.d forgive them for the past. After they shall have giv en us a sufficient security for the future time, by a satisfactory probation, we will then —but j. not till then—restore thena to the enjoyment of ail the inestimable rights and high privi leges which they so recently, so defiantly, and so causelessly trampled under their feet. For the defiant and unyielding rebel; for him who keeps his sword still drawn, reeking with the blood of our brothers; for him who refuses to accept and submit, in good faith, to the results of the war; for all those who glory in the part which they took in the rebellion; who still in sist that they were right and the nation wrong we have confiscalion and loss of citizenship; and if, in the end, nothing else will cure, we must have banishment or the halter. The money spent, the lives lost, the crip ples. the widows and orphans made such by the war, planned, commenced and waged by traitors, as well as the security, safety and future peace of the nation, all require at least this qiuch at pur hands. They shall receive all that justice and safety will permit us to grunt. ()i LcutiuHit of thm -hall I* utuul ded and shaped by their actions and conduct towards the nation. In all cases where they adopt, adhere to, and carry out, in good faith, the policy of reconstruction generously offer ed them by President Johnson, we will cordi ally welcome them as returning brothers into the great family. But if they come with ha tred and bitterness, and only that they may the better restore themselves to power so as to accomplish those original designs, by po : litical management, which they railed to se cure by the hazard of battle; justice to our selves, duty to the country and to posterity, require that we shall keep thetn in a position to prevent harm. By the valor and patriot ism of our brave soldiers, and by the help vouchsafed by that Providence which has al ways watched over and protected our nation, we have proved to the world that the whole host of rebels in the south, with the aid of all their foreign friends and northern sympathi zers, have been unable to resist the power of our country or successfully vie with her ar mies on the field of battle. By the help of the same brave mpn, and with the blessingH of the same Providence, we do not mean that their John Mosebys and Wade Hamptons shall be permitted to rnle the Councils of the nation. Our political adversaries were the first to demand for the rebels belligerent rights. Our enemies abroad united in the demand. To save the lives of ur prisoners, and from mo tives of humanity, we were obliged to yield to the demand. Now that the war ia over, these are the first men to demand that they shall be released from all the liabilities and respon sibilities of belligerents. By the law of na tions it has been long and well settled that in every nnjust war the victor may exact indem nity for the past and security for the future. So may the victor hold his adversary in the military grasp until he has accepted the re sult, and untu security against all future dan ger shall have been exacted and obtained. It is to be expected that our political adversa ries will object. Yet who but they can ob ject that the widows and orphans of the land should be supported by the authors ot the ca lamities ? Who but they will object that the wounded soldier who lost his ability to sup port and maintain himself shall be aided and supported by the wickedness which brought the injury upon him? Who but they will ob ject that the vast debt created by the work of treason shall be at least partly paid and dis charged by the traitors themselves ? They tell us the innocent in the south, and the women and children of the south will suf fer. They forget that such is the result in all wars, and never once think that the innocent and the women and children of the north suf fer from the war of treason. Yes these are the men who are now striving to secure the votes of the soldiers of Pennsylvania. When volunteers were needed for the army they were opposed to volunteering. Drafting was the fair way —only Democrats would volun teer—in the draft all would have a fair chance. When the draft came they were violently op-, posed to the S3OO commutation clause. That was a discriniin'.tion against the poor man. The rich would all pay out and only the poor would go. When the commutation clause was repealed they became more clamorous because the only chance for the poor man was now taken away —he must now go while the rich man could get a substitute. For a time it was a negro war, and no white man should go. When negro troops were called for they were aroused to the highest state of indignation. "The south would never stand it. It is an evidence of our weakness. If you can't con quer them with white troops you never can with negroes." Thus they continued during the whole four years of the war. No single measure of the government ever received their approbation. No matter what course might be adopted they were found in opposi tion. Are these the men to be now placed in power? Are they to control the government of this nation. The late administration, so recently endorsed by a majority of four hun dred thousand at the ballot box. is still by them denounced and abused. They clamor only for the rights of rebels. They forget that by the very act of war all who engaged in it forfeited all the rights they ever had un der the Constitution which they were trying to overthrow. The very instant war commenced, under the laws of war and the laws of nations, all obligations, contracts, treaties and stipula tions between the belligerents were at an end. Shall the settlement of the great questions growing out of this war be left in the hands of those by whom the war was carried to a successful issue, or shall it pass into the hands of those who opposed it from the be ginning? It is right for you to answer at the ballot-box. Upon you depends the result of the issue, and for you it wul be to say wheth er the war has been a failure, whether it exis ted as a fact, because in 1860 you voted as freemen had a right to vote, or whether it was commenced by wicked, ambitious and de signing men, without cause. It will be for you to say whether the fruits of the war are only debt, disgrace and slaughter, or whether they shall add to the glory, renown, greatness and power of onr common country.

A general amnesty will probably be pro claimed in the South long before the meeting of Congress. A bitter feud exists between the Rebel and loyal Indians, which will interfere seriously with the work of the Commission now in ses sion at Fort Smith, Arkansas. The Indians will object to the emancipation of their slaves. The Rev. Charles L. Quintan! has been elected Bishop of Tennessee. He was chap lain of a Rebel regiment during the war. Some returned Rebel soldiers recently burned the freedmen's school at Dechard, Tenn. The teacher was obliged to fly for his life. Gov. Hamilton of Texas is urging the citi zens to take the oath of amnesty and allegi ance to the National Government and qualify themselves to voto for delegates to the State Convention and to sit in that body. The mystery in regard to the corpse recent ly shipped from Fortress Monroe is solved. There was a box of tools shipped at the same time, and the address of the two boxes got changed, thereby sending the corpse to the wrong party, and the tools to the bereaved friends. On several occasions recently the colored soldiers standing guard over Government property on the Maryland shore, opposite Loudon Highta, have been fired upon by par ties concealed in the rocks upon the opposite side of the river. About $200,000 in bulliou, said to be part of the spoil captured by Jeff. Davis, has been recovered in Augusta, Ga., and is now in the possession of the Treasury Department. There were 14,314 Union soldiers buried in Nashville, Tenn., during the war. The colored population of Vieksburg, Miss., have pledged themselves to assist each other to maintain schools. The richest lauds in Texas are now in the market. The iudustrious farmer or mechanic from the North or from foreign lands can reap a rich harvest now, as the result of his labor or investments. For persisting in riding in a New Orleans street car, appropriated to white people only four negroes were recently sent to jail for three months. The t-ntire seotion of couutry between At lanta and Chattanooga, Ga., is one mas* of ruins, and the people are wandering about homeless and almost hopeless. The grand-daughter of Chief-Justice Mar shall of Virginia walked 13 miles to the Freed men's Relief Society to ask for food to keep her family from starving and many others who were reared in the luxury of Southern homes are now scarcely eapahle of saving themselves from starvation. Many families in Virginia who were wealthy and held high positions before the war. arc now struggling hopelessly in the moat reduced circumstances—more hopeless and destitute than the most ignorant and groveling negro who was once their slave. In Nashville, Tenn., not a vacant house ex ists within its entire limits, and the demand tor stores and dwellings has never been so great since the history of the city. Twelve lines of steamers are now mnning between New York and the varions ports of the South, comprising 121 vessels, with a tannage of 96,953 tuns. Gen. Marmaduke is the first one to avail himself of the privilege to remain without the United States during the pleasure of the Government, and has received a passport accordingly. Gen. Beanregard has also ap plied for a passport. Capt. Pen-it, who formaly commanded the "Washingthn Jail" at Alexandria, is to be tried by military commission for cnielty to prisoners. The Freedmen's Bureau will have organized in about three weeks, educattonal faculties for about 3,000 juvenile contrabands. The projected emigration of Southerners to Brazil, bids fair to relieve the United States of 50,000 of the dissatisfied chivalry. Troops will soon be quartered in all the county towns iu South Carolina, mostly color ed. Champ Ferguson, the gurrilla, killed with his own hand no less than sixty men. A species of diphtheria is very prevalent among hogs in Virginnia, which causes death in twenty-four hours after the first attack. DOMESTIC NEWS. A Havtien dispatch steamer has arrived.

A propeller exploded at Trenton, N. J., hurling barrels, boxes and fragments of ma chinery a great height into the air. The col nmn of steam arising from the explosion was seen a mile and a half off, and the report was heard for several miles. Whether a will is legally destroyed when the pieces remain and can be joined toeether again, and whether a person of unsound mind can cancel a will, is to be judicially decided in New York. The pension rolls now include the names of nearly 90,000 invalids, widows, mothers and orphans. A captain in the army is to be tried for grossly inhuman treatment of private soldiersj and for impressing men into the service as de" serters and then collecting the bounty for re storing deserters. The result of a late trial is to the effect tha t spiritual mediums are classed as jugglers, and must take out a license accordingly. The Fenians of the United States have projected arrangements for establishing a Provisional Government in Ireland soon; said government to be backed by 200,000 men. A man, bathing in Connecticut, was seized round the waist by a shark. After a severe struggle, he succeeded in putting his finger into the shark's eye, when it made off. The man was picked up exhausted from loss of blood. Since 1716, when grape-vines were intro. duced into California by the priests, the wine crop has never been known to fail. The yield in 1864 was: wine, 4,000,000 gallons; brandy, 200.000 gallons. The Naval Academy has been entirely re moved from Newport, R. 1., and is again re established at Annapolis, Md. A temporary treaty of peace has been made with the Apache, Camanche and Kiowa Indians, and hostilities against them suspend ed to arrange a permanent peace. The Union Ferry Company have carried nearly 30,000,000 of passengers between Brooklyn and New York during the past year, without killing one of them! The Captain and crew of the American Plover, heretofore reported lost, were saved, as well as a great part of her cargo, by another whaleship in her company. During an irksome delay of two hours on the Troy and Boston Railroad the other day, two young men, just to kill time, proposed to two young ladies respectively, and a cler gyman being at hand, were married on the spot. In Easter.i New England the drouth has been more severe this year than during any season since 1864. Miss Hannah F. Gould, the oldest female poet in the country, died at Newburyport, Mass., on the sth. Gov. Curtin announces the payment and fi nal discharge of $745,000 of the State debtof Pennsylvania. Reports from all parts of the country show that the corn crop will be nnprecedently large. Potatoes, buckwheat and onions promise an unparallelled yield. The cereal exportation will be larger than ever before. The Paymaster General's Department has drawn from the United .States Treasury since the Ist of May $193,546,005 49 to pay off the troops of the army. A Copperhead Candidate in Favor of Re pudiation, Col. W. W. H. Davis, the Copperhead candidate for Auditor General, has now re sumed full charge of the Doyleetown Demo crat, a newspaper which he has owned for many years, and which heretofore and now sympathizes with the rebels. The peculiar force of the Democrat , since Col. Davis has returned to preside over its columns, consists in asserting that the rebels have not been whipped; that they should be received back to the Union with all their rights restored; that slavery is not and can never be abolished and that in justice to the rebels, the debt which thejr incured in struggling for their "rights" is as legal as the debt which was piled on the people by the National authori ties while waging a crusade on the people of the South, and if the National debt is paid, so also must the debts of the Southern States be liquidated. According to Col. Davis' own theory the triumph of the Cop perheads at the ballot box would be to wipe out all the disgrace of the defeat of the rebels on the battle field. The Dayhttawtt Demo crat takes this position, and W. W. H. Davis is the editor and proprietor of that pestilential ohoet ,-~mrmtwo Telegraph, "BEDFORD MARKET.
