Bedford, May 25,1866. CAMPAIGN INQUIRER, Ihe INQUIRER will be issued as a cam paign paper from and after the Ist of July to the Pith of October, 1806, to accommodate those who are not regular subscribers. Ihe importance of the campaign should stimulate the Republican party to place the JXYRIREK in the hands of every friend of Re publican principles in this county. The can ass will not only be important in view of the •election ot a Governor, but it will be recol lected that a member of Congress, Senator, two Representatives, and a full county ticket from Prothonotary down to Auditor are to be •elected. Every member of the Republican party should be alive to the necessity of promptly distributing healthy reading matter among the masses. Bedford county must be carried against Copperheadism at the coming election. \\ e were only beaten on an aver age from 130 to 140 last fall. At least 160 deserters voted to mako this majority. Since then the bill disfranchising deserters has be come a law and they will be excluded from Toting at the next election. This gives the Republican party a majority of a few votes. Now then is the time to wrench the political ascendency from the party which, as a body, has so terribly abused its power in this coun ty for the last four years, and to accomplish this much desired result ihe IxyriUEi; will labor earnestly and deal most vigorous blows. Every Union Man in the County, with out an exception, should have a Copy. Lei our friends see that this is the case. A little exertion will do it. REGULAR TERMS: The iN'jcntEß will be sent, one year, for $2.00, if paid in advance; $2.50 if not paid within six months, and $3.00 if not paid within the year. The Campaign Inquirer Will be sent to subscribers At the following remarkably low rates: 1 copy, in advance $ 65 cents 10 copies " 6.00 20 •• " 11.00 40 " " 21.00 100 " " 50.00 Additions to the clubs may be made at any time at the same rates.

ACCIDENTS. —Within the last two weeks Frederick Koons, of Bedford township, broke bisarm, and Moses Mcllvaine of Union township, bis leg. Both gentlemen are doing well. BURSTING OF A BOILER. —We learn by a private letter from a subscriber at Spang's Mills, Blair county, that the boiler attached to the paper mill of Bare A Co. blew up on the eveningof the Bth inst. One man, named cd Joseph Wbitacre, was fatally wounded. At the time of the explosion he was engaged in unloading coal and was struck by part of the flue and thrown some 20 feet. He was the only person hurt. The boiler was thrown about 10 feet. Se.eral windows were broken out of the steam-room. Loss about SIOOO. Ihe mill will not be in running order for at least one month. We understand that the ladies of the Presbyterian church presented their late pas tor and his lady with a silver pitcher, goblets, salver and bashet, as an expression of their love, and then to relieve Mr. Sample of any expense in removing ihcm to his western home, sent the same by Express to St. An thony, Minnesota. Mr. Sample was detained a few days after his family left for Blairsville, by the unexpec ted death of Mr. Frank Filler and by personal indisposition. He is now gone to join his family, and by the close of the present week will probably be in his new field of labor. He will be retained in the affections and re memlercd in the prayers of the people, whom he evidently left with much reluctance, and solely front a sense of duty to his health, as has been already intimated. THE C'A ITER I*l LI. A R PEST.— -The catterpil lars have appeared in greater numbers this year than for many years previous. Many orchards are literally alive with them. They seem to have a great fondness for wild cherry and many of the trees of this species are en tirely bare. A correspondent of the Hun tingdon Jonrnal gives the following method for the destruction of these mischievous worms which neither birds nor chickens will devour : "Wet them with coal oil. Best way is to take a brush (a white wash brush is prefera ble," with a long haudie, dip it into the oil and swab their nests with it—it will instantly kill ! every one it touches." The Harritburg Telegraph has been very much enlarged and otherwise improved. Our friend Bergner seems to be "going up'' with a vengeance since he has been removed from the Post Office. The Telegraph reaches its readers west of Harrisburg several hours earlier than the Philadelphia papers, and contains all the latest important aews. As the leading Republican organ published at the State capitol, it fully reflects the senti ments of the party. We wish it many years of success and usefulness. are glad to learn that Eoht. A. Gibson of this city has been appointed a lieu tenant in the regular array. A good office ■worthily bestowed.— Winnexheik lieqixter. Lieut. Gibson is the sen of Mrs. Sophia Gibson of this place. The Lieutenant enter ed the volunteer service lour years ago as a private, but true worth can never go unrecog nized and he was promoted several times until he reached a captaincy. At the close of the war he was warmly recommended by the Gov ernor of lowa for a Lieutenancy in the Regu, lar army and received the appointment, the onlp one from the State. It is very seldom that a volunteer, who has not passed a thor ough military education at a regular Military School, receives an appointment in the Reg ular Army, and where an appointment is con ferred, it is considered a very high compli ment. We wish Robert a star or a pair of stars. SOLDIER'B ORPHANS.— Hon. Thomas H. Burrowes. Superintendent of Soldier's Or phans of Pennsylvania, gave notice in the June number of the School Journal, that he would attend at the Monongahela House, in Pittsburgh, on Tuesday, June sth, 1866, to confer wtth principals or owners of Acade mies or Seminaries, who may be willing to devote their property and efforts to the pur pose of educating these orphans. He ex. presses a desire to engage a school near the center of the district composed of the coun ties of Somerset, Bedford, Blair and Cam bria. We feel a very deep interest in the es tablishment of a school in this neighborhood and we hope that Mr. Burrowes' suggestion has been most heartily responded to. There are many mothers who cannot raise the nec essary expenses to convey their children to the schools now open for the reception of children from this county. We do think that stage lines and railways should carry them free of charge. We intend visiting, in a short time, all the schools at which pupils from this county are taught. We have neglected the matter here tofore but intend to do better in the future. Arknowlnlgnirnt. MESSRS. EDITORS: I cannot leave the scenes of pleasant pastoral labors, continued through more than ten years, without ex pressing, through you, the great regret with which I go out from the midst of a people who have been so uniformly kind, and appre ciated my services beyond their merit. I have elsewhere recorded some of the nu merous benefactions of my congregation, and would now simply refer to a recent gift, very beautiful and valuable, from the ladies of my late charge, "a gift,'' in the language of the accompanying note, "more perishable than the love which offered it." It shall he pre served whilst life lasts, associated with pre cious memories, a graceful memorial of christian kindness, which on many occasions made glad the heart of their pastor. I would, in connection with this, acknowl edge my indebtedness to Mr. Charles 11. Rea, who at considerable inconvenience and ex pense, took nearly all my boxed goods to the station of the H. A B. T. Railroad. It would be impracticable to enumerate the many tokens of sympathy aud kind regard which have awakened our gratitude during the last weeks of our sojourn in this place. I need no argument to convince me of my love to the vhlued friends I leave behind me. Separation from them is one of the greatest trials of my liie. May God supply all their need, give them great peace in the christian life, and an abundant entrance into the heavenly kingdom. I would also express my gratitude for kind ness shown by many persons to whom I have sustained the relation of pastor. Messrs. Dibert and Diehl took my family, all my baggage, aud a portion of my library to the Railroad without charge. My venerable friend Stahl rendered valuable assistance in my preparations for removal, and refused any remuneration. Merchants furnished boxes for packing my goods, free of expense, and unpaid bills for schooling, clothing, and labor were receipted in full, whilst many pleasant "keepsakes" have been received from other sources. My heart has been deep ly moved by acts of love, and expressions of affection coming from persons "not of my flock." May the Master I have endeavored to serve reward them all, both in this life, and in that which is to come. And now I go to the far North West. Con siderations of health alone have determined the change. It is a sad necessity. I never •xpect to love another people more —1 had almost written as well. With sorrow I go from them, even to the beautiful land of "sky tinted waters." May we meet in the Better Country, where tender ties are ncvered sun dered, and all forms of suffering are unknown forever. Farewell. ROBERT F. SAMPLE. Bedford. June 8, 1860. JOURNALISM IS En ENS BURG. —The spicy local editor of the Ebensburg AUegheman, J. Todd Hutchison, Esq., has been contribu ting a series of articles to that journal upon the history of the different efforts to estab lish newspapers in that interesting aud beau ful town. The last number contains the history of an enterprise with which we were connected. We selected at the type foundry of L. John son & Co. in Philadelphia, - the type which afterwards passed through so many trying vicissitudes, and subsequently started and published the paper for several months for the proprietors, but a misunderstanding arisiifg between the editors and ourself in re gard to a Senatorial canvass then in progress, we left the paper, but in nine or ten months afterwards returned to take charge of its ed itorial colamns. In this capacity, at nineteen years of age, we were not equal to the task of keeping up a paper without any other sup port save three or four hur. dred of a slow subscription. Debts began to loom up on every hand, and no visible means with which to pay ; we calmly surveyed the storm, and then rfoberly determined to "flee from the wrath to corue," and, re did, leaving the paper to take care of itself, how well it sue ceeded will be learned from the following in teresting statement: "August 2:1, the first number of a new paper styled The AUegheman made its appearance. It was Whig in politics, and edited by Messrs. A. C. Mullin and Charles Albright. Its motto was—"The tree com munication of thoughts and opinions is one ot the invaluable rights of man." The Al leghenian was edited with much talent and more vigor, yet all its days were numbered by the brief span of two years. Duringthose two years, it had for editors, beside Messrs. Mullin and Albright. Joseph R. Durborrow, R. L. Johnston and John M. Bowman. Upon the suspension of the puper, in 1855, the es tablishment wan bought by Dr. A. Rodrigue, who took the press, type and fixtures to Kan sas. Arriving in that then turbulent Terri tory, the office was seized by a body of border ruffians and tlyown into the Missouri river. The stock was subsequently fished out, how ever, and was afterwards used, first to spread abroad the pestilential heresy of pro-slavery, and next, as a countervailing good, to preach the doctrines of abolition. In a paper called the Union, of date April 14, 1866, published at Junction City, Kansas the editor, George W. Martin, formerly of Hollidaysburg, makes mention that he has just received an assortment of new type, and expresses his intention of casting aside his old type. In this-conuexio* he says : "Among the type that we propose casting into the "hell box" is a font of long primer which first did service in Ebensburg, Penn sylvania, on a Whig paper. ( The AUeghenian.) It was brought west by Dr. A. Rodrigue, who founded Lecompton, in this State. 11 was in store at Kansas City for a while, and during the early troubles of Kansas, a party of ruf fians, supposing it belonged to Senator Porn eroy, took it from the building and threw it into the Missouri river. It lay there several months, when it was fished up and sold by the Rodrique estate to the Democrat estab lishment at Lecompton. In that office we served a portion ot our apprenticeship on it. Subsequently it was sold to Sam Medary, who brought it to Junction City. Two years af terword we followed it to this point, and for four years we've mad# those same old types howl. After fifteen years service—in the cause of Whiggery, and some violent distor tions in the interest of ruffian Democracy, winding up their davs in the redeeming vir tues ol Radical Republicanism,-— we give them a decent burial, with feelings akin to sadness." SUNDAY* SCHOOL CONVENTION. —The sixth annual Sunday School Convention of the Ju niata District, East Baltimore Conference, Methodist Episcopal Church, met at McVey town, Mifflin connty, on Tuesday May 29th. The Rev. Thomas Barnhart, Presiding El der of the District, President; and Rev. J. A. DeMoyer, of Ennelsville, and Mr. B. M. Greene, of Huntingdon, Secretary. The number of pastors in attendance was twenty-five, and some seventy-five represent atives of Sunday Schools, beside three visit ing Clergy, and numbers of Sunday School workers. The Convention held sessions on Tuesday afternoon and evening, and on Wednesday morning, afternoon and evening : closing its meeting at 10 o'clock. P. M. The attendance at the meeting was very large throughout, at times crowding every available space. Altogether the largest, and best Convention as yet held in the District. All Sunday School workers in attendance were cordially invited to take part, in the dis cussions and exercises of the convention. The Children's Meeting held on Wednesday forenoon was very interesting. The Schools were escorted by the McYevtown Band —and entered the Church singing "March Along." Impromptu remarks were made by the President, Rev. T. Barnhart, and Rev. J. A. DeMoyer. The addresses were delivered by Rev. J. A. Price, Mr. M. Mohler, County Su perintendent of Mifflin county, and Mr. T. G. Bell. Singing, such as, "Who shall sing if not- the children," "Gather them in," "Hap py home," "If 1 were a Voice," "Pilgrim Band," "We'll stand by the Right," Ac., were interspersed through the exercises. The annual sermon before the Convention was preached on Tuesday evening, by the Rev. James Brads of Petersburg, to a large and attentive audience. The sermon was able, forcible and instructive, based on the command of Christ "Feed my lambs," (John 21,15.) The speaker presenting the condition of children and their relation; and enforcing the duty of the text, from the con sideration that food was provided in the word of God, and the opportunity c"sr >d itself in the Sunday Schools to feed the lambs, ihe sermon elicited from the Convention a vote of thanks to the speaker. A number of questions were brought by the Committee before the Convention, and called out considerable discussion, in which Clergy and Laity generally participated. The ques tion "Would the introduction of Cabinet Or gans, or kindred instruments, be promotive of good in our Sunday Schools'."'' perhaps called forth more earnest debate tban any other, and resulted in the adoption of the fol lowing resolution : Besotted, That the introduction of Cabinet Organs into many of our Sunday Schools would be productive of good. The question, "How can we best secure the early conversion to God of the children of our Sunday Schools?" brought on the fact, that during the past year gracious revivals of religion were had among the children at dif ferent places, and also their general fidelity in the profession made by them. The question in reference to the Centenary movement in the church the present year re sulted iu the adoption of the following resolu tion : Resolved , That we earnestly recommend the organization of our Sunday Schools into Sunday School Centenary Societies, wherever practicable, so as not to interfere with the Missionary Societies. The following questions were also discussed: "What is the best method of opening and conducting Sunday Schools'."' "What prom inence should be given to Cateehistical in struction?" "How can we bring in new schol ars to our Sunday Schools?" "How can we enlist our members more generally in the la bors of the Sunday School?" Deeply interesting accounts were given in the manner of conducting Infant Classes, by earnest workers, when the question, "What is the best method of teaching infant class es ?" was under discussion. • Bloody Run, and the last Tuesday in May, 1807. at 1 o'clock, P. M., and to close on Wednesday night, was the place, time and duration, as fixed for the Seventh Annual Sunday School Convention of Juniata dis trict. Thanks were voted to the citizens of Mc- Veytown for their hospitality—to the Secre taries, President, Railroad Cos., Ac., for va rious reasons. A Committee, consisting of the presiding elder, the preacher in charge of Bloody Run, the Sunday School committee, and Rev. J, Moorhead, were appointed to prepare a pro gramme, Ac., for next annual meeting. On motion, Resolved, That nil delegates hereafter arc expected to remain until the close of the Convention. Resolved , That upon the election of the delegates the preachers are requested to in form the preacher at Bloody Run of only those who will atteuu, and whether male or female. Mr. T. G. Bell, and a class of young ladies, at different times upon the call of the coven tion, favored the same with excellent singing. SECRET ABT. GEX. {GARFIELD'S RAILWAY BlLL. —Below; wo publish the Bill introduced some weeks ! ago into the Lower House of Congress, by Geu. Garfield, which was passed finally last week by a vote of 77 to 41, to head off the persecution of the Company desiring to complete the road from Connellsvilleto Cum berland.
