MONKT WASTED. —We believe we have
prompt paying subscribers and patrvms as
any newspaper in the country can boast of,
■ i -e are therefore not inclined to com
plain. But not being able to" go out among
o-.T people to collect, when we are in need of
money we are obliged to call on tbetn through
the columns of our paper. Tbe books of the
late firm of Durborrow A Lutz are in our
hand- fur settlement and on them we find a
,rge number of unsettled accounts for ad
vertising and subscriptions, atnou .ting to sev
eral thousand dollars. There are outstanding
delU of the late firm which must be met and
paid, and to enable us to do this we must rely
upon our patrons for prompt payments. They
have never yet failed us when called upon and
we are confident that they wili not now. But
as a further inducement, we will accept, from
ail who are in arrears for subscriptions and
who pay for the past year and the yea- in ad
-mice, before or during September Court, $2
per year, tbe same as if they had paid for all
in advance. We Lave greatly enlarged and
improved our paper, at a heavy expense,
without any increase in its price, and the lib
eral terms now offered cannot be extended be
yond September Court. All part e- r.repay
ing up at that time will be strluly heid to the
advertising rates viz. ?2 in advance, $2.25
if not paid in advance. $2,00 if not paid with
in six mouths and f-3.00 if not paid within
the year. Call and settle. Now is the time
to save money by prompt payment.

IMEORTAXT. —It is reported about town that
the Seymour and Blair Club held a meeting
on last Saturday evening. Won't some Dem
ocrat give us the particulars?
QCERY. —Why don't the Gazette name
-ime of the Republicans in this vicinity who

their names in print. Trot out your recruits.

truth, (an article in whicb that veritable
scribbler never deals.) we woald be willing
'o t.,ke the evidence of tbe Democrat who
*xs heard to say "that another such a meet
fg and a few more such speeches and the
--•publicans will have it ail their own way."

THE LIST GK.VKB FIZZLE.—A graud rally !
of the unterrified of Bedford bad been planned
for Saturday evening. Bills were posted, and
with a great flourish of trumpets all the faith- j
tal were exhorted to be on hand. Saturday '
evening came but with it the crowd did not
come. The Court-room we? opened and the j
lights bright 1 * burning, but the crowd wa
not forthcoming. Despairing of even effect
ing an organization in so dry a place, the
band was sent out to ptay arottr.d town and
gather up the boys. Between eight and niue
o'clock enough of a crowd was drummed up j
in front of the Bedford House, to organize a
meeting. The first speaker, was no le>B a
character, than the notorious rebel General ;
Thomas McKaig of Cumberland, who regal
ed the men, women and children, to tbe
number of about a hundred, scattered around
within sight of the speaker, will! a rehash of
played out, rebel, states' rights doctrine.
Next came another rebel, A. L Knott. Esq..
the rebel prosecuting attorney of Baltimore.
The crowd (?) had already had a pretty fuli
dose of rebel doctrine and not being disposed j
to be treated to another on the same evening
rapidly dwindled down to the officers and
speaker on the stand, the usual attendants
inside the bar room, about twenty or thirty
persons in the street, and a few scattered
along the doorways on the opposite side, who
evidently enjoyed their own private conversa
tion much more than the dry effort of Mr.
Knott to show that the rebeliion was consti
tutional, that the national debt could not be
paid Ac.
The meeting was a quiet one, wy qvid\
indeed we fee! disposed to congratulate orr
Copperhead friends on the very rapid im- j
prove UK- nt they are making in this direction, J
A few more meetings at the same rate and
there will be no noise at ail. The noise, with
the crowd, grows smaller by decrees and
beautifully le-.-. A few in r reh> 1 -pe-T.es
might improve the situation. We advise
tbero to send foi Gen. Forrest, of Fort Pillow
butchery notoriety. Wade Hampton, sod
Ex Gov. Wise. It might Lew !1 even to,
bring Blair here, and let him n i l that fa- j
mous !< ner in favor of a DC--V reliellion.
>' mething niu.-t 1 done —their rise is get
ting desperate.
A Fttuin AKTAIB. —The patriotic ladies of ]
this place, feeling an interest in the welfare
of the Republican Band, and that their vaiua
ble services rendered the farty should be sub
stamially recognized, determined to hold a
festival on Friday and Saturday evenings of j
last week, the proceed? to be appropriated to j
aid in purchasing uniform? for the mem
bers of the Band Although the affair :
was altogether an impromptu one, the man
ner in which it was gotten nj> reflects great
credit upon the ladies who conducted it.
The new store room of Mr. Samuel Shuck, i
on Pitt street, was tastefully decotated and j
fitted up tor the occasion. Tables were set ;
the length of the building, and loaded with
cake, fruit and flowers, which were offered 1
for sale by the young Indy friend? of the
Band in attendance. At the farther end of I
the room delicious ice cream was sold under
the supervision of those who had the affair in
charge. The adjoining court was also hand
gomely decorated, and here a museum, with ;
the nature of which we are not acquaint
ed. but which was gotten up for the en- j
tertainmeut of the boys *s- announced, j
The Band was in attendance, and from
the portico of the adjoining residence of
Mr. William Shuck, discoursed its musie
for the entertainment of tic .?<: present.
The weather was very pleasant on both
evenings, and the large crowd in attend
ance orderly throughout. Tbe nelt leceipts
amounted to tbe sum of eighty-eight d.ilars. ■
Had the affair not been necessarily hurried :
forward no doubt twice that amount would j
have been realized. As it was but two days
were allowed in which to prepare. The 1
thanks of the Band are certainly eminently :
due their lady Iriends for this tinic-ly aid. and
they now have the pleasure of using si ver in
struments that are paid for, and have a
sufficient balance in tbe treasury to enable ■
them to purchase the uniforms.

CARP or THANES. —At a regular meeting
of the Rei u! lican Silver Cornet Bar.d of Bed
ford. held -on Monday evening, August' 17th
lfuft, the following resolutions were offered
and unanimously adopted:
Rejoiced—That the thanks of the Band are
eminently due to the patriotic ladies of Bed
ford. who so generously contributed their
means and graciously lent their aid in fur
therance of the interest? of the Bend in ten
dering us a Festival which not ouly afforded
us substantial assistance but whicb added so
much to oar entertainment.
J'esolced —That these reciprocities of kind
ness shad never be forgotten, but that our
most cherished gratitude shall ever flow
toward those true hearts, and we unite in un
feigned thanks to the fair hands that so
delicately wrought so magnificent a feast.
S. 4- JORDAN,
U.S. ELLIOTT,
R. W. COOK,
Committee.
FIRE. —The large Tannery of Hoyt Broth
ers. at Emmaville, Falton county twelve
miles S. E. of Bloody Run, was entirely con
sumed by fire on Monday morning, the
10th inst. The fire is supposed to have
originated from tbe furnace, and when dis
covered. at 1 o'clock A. M. bad made so much
headway that an attempt to save the building
would have been sheer folly. The energetic
agent of the Company, Mr. Conlev, at once
directed his attention to the large stock of
leather that was in the building, and with the
assistance of employes and neighbors remov
ed the greater part of it. though not without
damaging it slightly. Only a few cords of
bark were burned. The loss is estimated at
S2O,O;Kt, with an Insurance that will probably
cover a large proportion.— ltedford County
Pre**.
Ci.i it MEETING. —Tbe Grant and Colfax
Campaign Club will meet on Saturday even
ing next. Hon. T. J. Coffey, of Philadelphia,
an able and eloquent speaker, and Hon. John
Cessna, of Bedford, will address tbe meeting.
Hon. Francis Jordan, Secretary of the Com"
mouweaith, a gentleman with whom our citi
zens are well acquainted, and whose sterling
qualifications and great ability no one dares
to question, is expected to be present, in
which case he will also address the meeting.
Let our friends turn out as tbey have done
before. We have got the inside track and let
us keep iu Rally 1 Rally !
| Be Viouaxt. —The Republican party can.
n l deploy too carefully. We do not fight the
battles of this campaign against an open,
manly foe. but again Eta bushwhacking enemy,
whose weapons are colonization fraudulent
naturalization, duplicate voting, and false re
turns. Their agents are sworn to secrecy,
and it is almost certain death to him who,
under a tjualrn of conscience, reveals their
hidden arts. Let the Union men be always
