The nesting at the Court House on Toes isv .•ugia was one of the largest that has ag it the occasion of a Court Week for any years. The enthusiasm manifested by ir people on this occasion is an omen of a ti Republican rote in this county at the lining election.

That the Republicans of Bed ord County, in mass meeting assembled, do • irdiaily approve and ratify the platform of r-.ncipies adopted by the Republican State 'invention at William*port on the JHth of luue last. A That the selection by that Convert ton from the many good men there named >f Judge Williams of Allegheny as our can iidate for the Supreme Bench meets our arty approval; that in him wc have a can* : : te worthy the suffrage of all honest and evjii men, because of his eminent judicial ilities. integrity and impartiality, of his tightness and purity of character; ot his •edom from ail partisan affiliation and big y if bis unswerving patriotism and *ie •un to the cause of the country- and be- In "he prime of manhood ami in vigor health, he is well suited for a position Ih the labor and the length ol term of -•■!. h demand that the candidate be in his prune. . II -oleed, That in the election this Fall j recognize a contest involving the vital j rincqdes of the Government. The same w atthe otintry by deciding again: t the; fht of the Government to issue paper money j IJ be --idlers and carry on the War. In : ntcst a comparison of the principles at , ue and ths quaiiacations of the candidates : mautk of every patriotic and good citizen ! bat he jives his vote for Jiidgo Williams. Res "I. That the course ami conduct; John VV. < ieary as Governor of our State ■_••<■-is with our hearty sanction and approval, iiis ■ntegritv of purpose and independence of | - ton are ■ marked that they have elicited j he ta :t praise even of our adversaries —more i j than this they have not die magnanimity to give. 5. iicxvlcfd, That in the Hon. Edwin M. Stanton we recognize one whose self-reliant and unwavering support of the course of the ountry calls for our unqualified admiration. The nation owes him a debt of gratitude for his self sacrificing labor, his far reaching judgment his activity, zeal, patriotism, unfal tering faith, and his assumption ot the nec | essary responsibility, most emphatically, as -ecretary of war he was the right mnr, in the j right place. That he is hated and reviled by traitors and secession sympathisers is as nat i jrai as that he should be admired and applau- Ided by ail loyal men. 6. It, -rtlcid. That wo honor ami commend I die wisdom patriotism and moderation of j Congress, and their determination to gather , up and secure tor posterity, in spite ot the m&chinations of a faithless Executive, the I legitimate fruits of the victory won at so : great a sacrifice at treasure and of blood—The victory of the Union over Secession; ot Pa j ;Holism over Treason; of Freedom over j Slavery. 7. Res-deed, That we fully indorse the sen timents of .the letter of Gen. U. S. Grant to A. Johnson, in reference to the removal of ien. Phil. Sheridan, and that we emphatical ly reiterate the declaration that the ttsovut are a unit against his removal. 5. Resolved, That we approve the course of our Representatives in the last Legislature ; Messrs. Richards and Waller have proved themselves honest and reliable men, worthy of re-election. 'i. Resolved, That we favor the passage of a Free General Railroad Law. such as will fa cilitate the making of Railroads through every part, of she •■Sate, and that we are opposed '.o uty Railroad monopoly, and regard the Rail road power so unscrupulously used to control legislation with alarm and dread. 10. Resolved. That the financial misman agement of Bedford county calls upon the tax-payers without distinction of party to ! give the matter their earnest attention. It is time there should he a change not only of men. but of method, and the beat aud most speedy change will be by electing the Repub lican iOminees for county otfices this Fall, from Treasurer to Auditor. It would be well at all times to have the County Boards of Commissioners, Directors and Auditors divi ded in politics. It is especially desired at this time. 11. Rtsr-lrtd. That in this contest, the fore runner of the Presidential election next year, we urge apon every union man renewed ac tivity and* zeal. The dead carcass of the sham- Democracy of Pennsylvania should be buried out of sight. It has grown offensive to all loyal uieu who are not blinded by par t-isau bigotry. Its record during the last five years is covered ait over with infamy. By opposing the right of volunteer soldiers to vote, by opposing the pay of bounty to vol unteers, by opposing the right to make paper money to pay the soldiers when it was impos sible to carry on the war without it, ana by obstructing the Government in every effort to .-.oppress the rebellion, they alienated the af fections of the people, and they have been defeated in every election. We lo not doubt they will be again defeated. It is only need ful that ail ioyai men be awake to their duty and rally round the tiag once again, and we will crush out the last of the Copperheads from the land, and purity the State forever from their venom. Cottier WEEK. — Ihe number of persons in attendance at Court was unusually large, and a considerable amount ofbuainess was transitu ted —proceedings next week. IN TOWN.—Cant. C. R. Miller, late of Com pany "E," T'-ih Pa. Vols., but now a resident of Washington city, is on a visit to his many friends in '.his place. We are always glad to meet the Captain, and those who kuow him ' )>est, testify to his being a brave soldier and t very efficient officer. "May his shadow nev er grow less." DI.HTHE.-dXc ACCIDBSI*. —We learn that on Monday last a paitiinl accident occurred near £lu=tontown in Fulton county, which resulted in the death of Mr. J. Zimmerman, a citizen of Brash Creek Valley, in this county, under the following circumstances. Mr. Zimmerman had gone to Hustontown to rent a house aud did rent in that neighborhood and was going to move in a few days. He was traveling in a wagon with Mr. Catchall when the team be-, came frightened and ran away. Mr. Z. at tempted to jump off the wagon aud by some means was thrown under it, and dragged, and terribly bruised and mangled and died in j about six hours. He was about 60 years old. DEMOCRATIC WIT.— A party of gentlemen at the Springs, a few weeks ago, were dis cussing the ••situation," when a leading Dem ocrat. no; an admirer, as few Pennsylvania Democrats are, of the Old Public Function ary, emphatically remarked:—"Gentlemen, the Democratic party was sired by Thomas Jefferson, and dam(n)ed by James Buehan- i in. ' For Democratic wit this is not at ail bad. LEAVING. —The "best society," which has j been making itself comfortable or nneam- j fortabie. we know not which,) at this water ■ iug place, is now retiring home. The season is about over, and the M'Ffimseys, M'Tobs. i and ail the rest of them can now return to : their brown -tone fronts without incurring j the Imputation that they were too poor or too i mean to go into the country. The season at I all the watering places is about over, and pleasure giving place to business, we may safely predict renewed activity throughout • the country. MENTAL AND .SOCIAL CCI.TCRE is the title j of a new book, by L. C. Luomi-. designed for schools and academies. It contains many ' good rules, and mueh sound practical advice for ail who earnestly * desire to store their mi mi,-t with useful knowledge and fit them selves for a creditable discharge of lifes du ties. Like all works of this kind, it can only lay down "he rules and point oat the way in which knowledge can be obtained. To those who hope to find some short cut. to mental and social culture or purchase knowledge with dollars and cents it will be of no avail. There is no royal highway by which knowl- j edge <-an be reached post haste. All who j would taste her pleasures, whether rich or poor, high or low, must be content to follow the same course of diligent, persevering ' study, not for a week or a month but for years, j To such his book will furnish useful aid and j judicious advice that may save them much precious time.

We therefore ask our friends to note down such items as they thiuk wonld interest them were they away from home, and send thera to us.

Some medical men insist that it is undignified to advertise a remedy, however valuable it may be. Queer reasoning this. It is like saying that an article which the world needs should be hid in a corner—that lienefits and blessings may be too widely diffused—that the means of proteetingand restoring health should be a close monopoly, and not aMMtible to all. The argument is bad. It is worse than that: it is olawa Suppose 1103- TETTEICB STOM.YCII HITTERS—an at solute pecific lor dyspepsia, Biliousness and nervosa debiiity—had never been known beyond the rep. trim re of the faculty, what would have i*en the consequence? In.-tead of curing and invigorating millions, the good effects of t he preparation would have been confined to a comparative few. There is the highest authority for saying that light ahouid not be hid under a bushel; that whatever is excellent should lie plaeed as a city on a hill, where all men can take cognizance of it ft is upon this principle that the BITTER 3 have been advertised and continue to be advertised in every newspaper of any prominence in the western hemisphere, and that the spontaneous testimoni als in its favor have been translated into all writ ten languages.
