Scbforb Inquirer,
BKDFORI), 1M„ FRIDAY, JI'XE 20,1866.
CAMPAIGN INQUIRER
j'he INQUIRER will be issued as a cam
paign paper from and after the Ist of July to
the 12th of October, 1860, to accommodate
those who are not regular subscribers.
Ihe importance of the campaign should
stimulate the Republican party to place the
Lvov IRER in the hands of every friend of Re
publican principles in this county. The can
vass will not only be important in view of the
election of 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. We were only beaten on an aver
age from 130 to 140 last fall. At least 160
deserters voted to make this majority. Siuce
then the bill disfranchising deserters has be
come a law and they will be excluded from
voting 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 abusud its power in this coun
ty for the last four years, and to accomplish
this much desired result the INQUIRER will
labor earnestly and deal most vigorous blows.
Every Union Jlun in the County, with- j
out an exception, : tumid have a Copy, j
Let our friends see that this is the case. A
little exertion will do it.
REGULAR TERMS:
The INQUIRER 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

BfeS" There will be no paper issued from
this office next week. Our employees desire
to avail themselves of the glorious fourth to
get a little recreation while we are about in .
the same category.
JftaT' The Ladies' Mite Society of the Pres.
byterian Church will give a festival on the
evening of the 4th of July.
OHH FELLOW CELEBRATION. —The Odd Fel
lows will celebrate the 4th of July at Wood
berry in a becoming manner. Martinsburg
and Bedford Lodges are expected to partici
pate. There will be a grand procession in
full regalia. Dr. C. N. Hiekok, of Bedford,
will be the orator of the day. Our friends
can expect a fine intellectual treat. A very
large turn out and a good time generally is
anticipated.
Republican Brass Baxd. —A Brass BAND
has been organized by a number of young
Bepublicans for the coming campaign. They
have only been practicing a few weeks and
have made remarkable proficiency. They
play very creditably and will lend much to
the enthusiasm of the approaching canvass.
Bedford has two Brass Bands, both of which
are highly creditable.
I&f The Odd Fellows Lodge iu this place
has been splendidly renovated under the di
rection of Dr. C. N. Hiekok. There are few
Lodges in the State that are more tastefully
and artistically embellished than this one.
Hnndrcds of persons have visited it and ex
pressed their admiration of its beauties. The
fraternity is rapidly on the increase and the
Lodge is in the best of pecuniary circum
stances.
Tkottixo Course, —Col. Hafer has been gra
ding a training courseat the Chalybeate Spring
Park , one mile northeast of this Borough. This
will be one of the mest prominent resorts
during the Spring Season. He will open it
for the use of the public on the 4th of July.
We do not know a more beautiful location in
this neighborhood than the Chalybeate Spring
Park, and we expect that in a few years
magnificent buildings will be erected adjacent
to it for the accommodation of the public.
The course now being graded will, it is pre
sumed, draw the attention of the public to
this beautiful location. A dinner will be serv
ed up at Mr. Chenowith's, on the evening
ot the 4th. A large attendance is expected.
W.UKU! WATER!! WATER! !! —Monday
was one of the hottest days we have yet had
this res-son. Though only the fifth day of
summe" our hydrants were dry. This is the
same old story, summer after summer. Dur
ing Winter ond Spring no one thinks nor
cares ahout providing for a bountiful supply
of good, pure water during the hot days of
summer. The summer solstice is scarcely
pas d when the cry begins, "Hydrants dry,"
"no water" comes, coupled with good ad
vice as to how the matter might be remedied,
lroin the Hps of scores of our citizens. Good
resolutions and advice will not do. Work is
wanted. Half our town might have been
I'ttraed to the ground on Monday if a fire had
accidentally broken out, and we would have
i'td no means of staying the flames. An
"•nice ot prevention is better than a pound of
cure. \S ill not our borough authorities go
t<> work, have estimates made of the cost of
''ringing a full supply of water to the town
il orn ;'ie nearest stream or spring of sufficient
capacity, and lay the results before the citi
zens of li e borough. Let us know what it
■rill cost, then if the people prefer running
the risk of perishing with thirst, smothering
with dupt, or being burnt up in a general
conflagration, to shelling out and making
themselves a „d their property secure, let
thin do so.

During the absence of the Committee Capt.
G. W. Z. Black addressed the Convention on
the issues of the day in a neat and appropri
ate speech at the close of which the following
resolutions were submitted, and unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, That we cordially and heartily
endorse and approve the Amendment to the
Constitution of the United States, recently
adopted by the two houses of Congress. The
punishment of traitors which it inflicts is mild
and more lenient than they deserve. None
but Rebels could possibly desire the payment
of the Rebel debt. No friend of the Union
would ever by willing to repudiate any part
of the debt contracted to preserve the life of
the nation and made necessary by the efforts
of traitors to destroy it. Every true Republi
can and Democrat must approve of that
change in representation whicn is necessary
to make a freemen of the North equal, in
political influence and power, with a citizen
of the Soutl).
Resolred, That while we believe (bat "trea
son should be made odious and traitors pun
ished," to such an extent, at least, as to prove
a warning to all future ages, we also hold that
the frieuas of traitors in the North shou'd
receive such condemnation nnd punishment
as would prevent them from giving aid and
comfort to reconstructed rebels in administer
ing the affairs of the nation, and, therefore,
we fully approve of the Act of the Legislature
ot Pennsylvania taking away fnm all deser
ters the right, of citizenship.
Resolved, That we are glad to learn that
even that Court in Pennsylvania that decided
that soldiers in the service of their country
could not vote has not been able to declare the
law of Congress unconstitutional hut on the
contrary has acknowledged its legality and
validity. And we are especially rejoiced to
find that the Legislature and Governor of our
State have enacted a just and equitable law
which provides and supplies an uniplc reme
dy for what was supposed by a minority of the
Court to be an omission in the law of Con
gress ; thus securing to all true soldiers the
right of suffrage and withholding it from
deserters.
Resolved , That while we do not desire to
impugn the motives of the judges who deci
eea against soldiers in 1802, against the pow
er of the General Government to raise an
urmy to save the life of the nation, by draft,
iu ISOJ and iu favor of Deserters in 1800 yet
we can not avail the expression of the gratifi
cation we feel from the fact that in 1867, un
der the law of the State, the people will be
again enabled to reverse the Court and make
it once more a true exponent of the loyal sen
timent of the Country.
Resolved , That it is the duty of Congress
so to revise the revenue laws as to afford in
creased protection to American industry, to
secure the development of the industrial
wealth of the peopje; to render labor profita
ble and remunerative; to build up home mar
kets for Agriculturalists; to attract capital to
thy mineral fields of the country, and to pro
vide revenue for the maintenance of the pub
lic credit and payment of the national debt.
Resolved, That in the judgment of this Con
vention the people of Bedford county are in
favor of a General or Free Rail Road Law,
subject only to just and propor restrictions,
as being best calculated to develop the resour
ces of the country and promote the interests
of the people; and we hereby instruct the
Senatorial and Representative Conferees this
day chosen to nominate no person who will
not pledge himself to sustain and advocate
such a measure at the next session of the
Legislature of Pennsylvania.
Resolved , That our nominee for Senator
have the selection of his own conferees, and
hat this convention recommend to the other
counties of the District, Tuesday, the 24th
day of July next, at Bedford as the time and
place of holding the Senatorial Conference.
Resolved, That our nominee for member of
the House of Representatives have the selec
tion of his own Conferees, and that we rec
ommend to the other counties of the Dis
trict, Tuesday, the 20th day of July, at Bed
ford as the time and place for holding the
Representative Conference.
Resolved , That this Convention pledge to
the candidates this day nominated, a cordial
and hearty support.
The following Committee was selected for
the ensuing political year :
Bedford borough. —J. B. Cessna, J. T.
Keagy.

There are a number of strangers al
ready here to spend the Spring Season. We
expect a very throng season.
We have been requested to say that
all business will be suspended in this place
on the 4th of July.
SCHOOL DIRECTORS, TAKE NOTICE.— By the
common school law of this State it is made
the duty of Directors to "publish an annual
statement of the amouut of money received
and expended, and the amount due from col
lectors, and setting forth all the financial ope
rations of the district: in not less than ten
handbills, to be put in the most public places
in the district." In districts containing a
newspaper, one or more publications therein
of the "annual statement" will be sufficient
compliance with the law, and will render writ
ten or printed handbills unnecessary—but
they are indispensable in all other cases.
NOTICE TO GUXNERS. —For the benefit of
of those who have been indulging in the sport
of shooting squirrels, we publish the follow
ing extract from the laws as passed by the
late Legislature of the State:
Section 2. That from and after the passage
of this act, no person shall shoot, kill or oth
erwise destroy any pheasant between the first
day of January ana the first day of Septem
ber, or any squirrel between the first day of
January and the fifteenth day of August, or
any woodcock between the first day of Janu
ary and the fourth day of July, or any part
ridge or rabbit between the first of January
and the first day of November, in the present
year, and in each and every year thereafter,
under the penalty of live dollars for each and
every offence.
Book Notices.
The Ati-axtic Montui.v kok Jti.y.—The
Case of George Dedlaw" is a sketch full of
whimsical, psychological speculation, in which
the author's humor deals with the phenom
ena of the debatable ground between nature
and the supernatural, and presents, perhaps,
the most remarkable instance of spiritual
manifestation on record. Mr. Longfellow
contiibutes a second sonnet on Translating
Dante, and the Passages from Hawthorne's
Note-Book are continued, as is Charles
Ileade's story of Griffith Gaunt. The pape r
on Indian Medicine has a peculiar interest, as
coming from one whose life among the Indi
ans has fitted him to speak with peculiar in
telligence of their superstitions and psychol
ogical powers; it is a most valuable contribu
tion to the history of demonology. Goldwin
Smith's Englishman in Normandy presents
novel phases of a much-betravelled, much
bewritten region, and offers some clear and
just views of French imperialism. Bayard
Taylor's sketch of Buckert, the great Ger
man orientalist and poet, is timely and at
tractive. Major Henry 8. Burrage, in the
Seige of Knoxville, recounts the history of
that event, and does justice to General Burn
side's leadership and gallantry in the affair.
The Great Doctor is the first part of one of
those stones of Western life which Alice Ga
ry writes so well. Scientific readers will be
charmed with the article ot Prof. Agissiz on
the geology of the Amazon Valley. Bryant
gives a fine poem under the title The Death
of Slavery. The remaining articles in the
number are: Released, a poein by Mrs. Whit
ney: To J. 8., a poem by J. R. Lowell; A
Bundle of Bones, by C. J. Sprngue; Aunt
Judy, a graphic sketch of negro character, by
Dr. J. W. Palmer: Mrs. Stowe's Chimney
Corner paper, and critical notices of Ecee
Homo, Saxe's pojms, Fifteen Days, Life of
Silliman, Ac. Ac. Published by Ticknor A
Fields, Boston.
Swixton's Ait mt ok t"k Potomac. —This
splended work isuuujue among "Warßooks,"
being a completely rounded history of "The
Grand Army," from its organization to its
final muster out and dissolution.
Mr. Swinton possesses unusual ability for
the work he has so admirably accomplished,
and his hook is both a history and a criticism.,
and iu this respect differs essentially from
any other work on the war yet published.
Not only are events as they occurred here re
corded, but the reasons for and against the
coiim le.-s movements and resting? of the
great army are fully detailed, and the rigid
judgments of history anticipated.
The exact and handsomely engraved maps
in this volume are a distinguished feature of
its excellence. Every Map has been express
ly prepared for this work by Col. Paine, of
the Engineer Corps, from actual and most
carelul surveys, and are unequalled by any
war maps yet published. They are so nu
merous and complete that all the movements
of the army are rendered easily intelligible.
The intense pride taken in the great
achievements of The Grand Army, by every
officer and soldier connected with it and by
all persons related to or connected with these
participants in its glories—furnishes an im
mense constituency who will be glad of an
opportunity to purchase such a book. Every
village and town throughout the country will
furnish its list of personally interested sub;
scribers.
On this account, and because of the great
excellence of the book, we confidently anti
cipate for it a greater sale than any similar
work has ever received. For further partic
ulars see advertisement in another column.

OAMPAIGNB OF THE
ARMY OF THE POTOMAC.
BV WILUA* BWIXTOX.
Standard History of the Grand Army,
THF. GREATEST WORK ON THE WAR.
U niverzally endorsed by army officers and the
press. The author says:
"I design in this volume to record what that
Army did and suffered in ten campaigns and two
•core battles."
"1 shall have to celebrate the uuswerving loy
alty of this army, that oft times when the bond "of
military cohesion failed, held it, unshakcu of for
tune, to a duty self-imposed."
"I shall have to follow it through a checkered
experience, in a tale commingled of great misfor
tunes. great follies and great glories; but from
first to hist it will appear that, amid many buffets
of fortune, through "winter and rough weather,"
the Army of the Potomac never gave up, but
made a good fight, and finally reached the goal."
The Army and Navy Journal says:
"This is the only American critical work on the
late war, and it is thoroughly critical and entirely
divested of all political hue or tone."
This is th- on iy history of the "Grand Army,"
and no one who has borne a part in its conflicts,
or is interested in its grand achievements, should
be without it.
This work sells itself. The people are tired of
political and partisan histories, and want some
thing from official sources. We have agents
clearing over S2OO per month. Bend for circulars,
and see our torms and proof of the above asser
tion. Address,
