The prospect is brightening every day in
Bedford county. Cheering news comes to us
from every section. The Democracy have
tried the game of brag, but find that whistling
has failed to keep their courage up. The
State they hopeless and they are now
trembling for the county. Vigorous work
and a lull turn-out is ail that is wanted on the
Dart of the Republicans to make a large gain
and perhaps carry the county. Let Repub
licans remember this and go to work with a
will.

STILL ANOTHER FIZZLE. BIG DREAM Ac.,
Just as we predicted, Seymour A Blair club
j back again. The More they awing around,
the less they grow. On Saturday Evening
| last a tremendous effort was made to Scare
op enough Cops to form a quorum for the
club. After several hours hard pleading wiib
j the lukewarm boys, the marshalled forces, 5
boys and the chairman of the County Com
: raitiee) formed in procession and beaded by
! the Band, marched to the Court House.—
Meeting called to order.—Mr. Wm. Hartley
1 took the stand, and in tbe course of his
J Speech, related the following Dream. "Me
thinks I saw a road 400 miles long, six feet
wide, and a canal of blood on either side. At
tbe extremity of the road was a very large
wagon heavily laden, and drawn by 20,000,-
000 of people. On the canals, appeared to
be boats moving to and fro, whose occupants
were of dark complexion." At this point
we became highly excited, and involuntarily
I looked around for a DAXIEI, (Nebuchadnez
zar's resource) for an interpretor, but hist!
j "Melbinks as I stood gazing upon this sight
| an angel appeared unto me and said "In the
wagon is the enormous debt of the nation and
I the negroes that have been freed, being
: drawn by the democratic tax payers."—Bed
: ford certainly is tbe most remarkable place
in the old keystone. Her well known waters,
pleasant situation, bealthy climate, handsome
women, two cornet Bands, fast horses, roos
ters Ac. Famous lor the erection of Booth's
! monument —the raising of three companies
to defend -Andv Johnson—the sending of
I her men south to point their guns North
: ward —The throwing away of soldiers votes —
j Resisting the Draft—Burning Union Men's
Barns—Shooting enrolling officers —Huuting,
caves Ac Ac. which will defy competition any
where. Lastly but not least, it is the habita
tion of him that dreameth a dream, and is
advocate with the Spirits for dying demo
cracy.—With the exception of skeptics, the
democrats of that meeting will be in an aw
ful dilemma, for tbey must accept the inter
i pretation of dreams to 'the same extent as
j they do the dream itself. In the language of
dreams, boats denote trouble. Running blood,
presage certain death. To speak with an
angel is evil. To dream of persons having a
dark complexion signifies a very dangerous
disease. To dream of niggers in any other
capacity than singers or dancers, is portentous
of great ill. O! democracy how true then is
ihat dream —Seymour says tbe nomination
plunged him in a sea of troubles. Sun Set
' Cox says there is no earthly hope for demo
! cracy. Maine thunders the same ominous
sounds in your ears. Southren Ku-Klux fully
demonstrate it, and in ten days, Pennsylva
nia will bury yon so deep in the dreamy land
that yon will never hear another echo.

WHAT ANSWER?— A Story of To- Day.— By
Anna E. Dickinson. $1.50. Ticknor A
fields, Boston.
Miss Dicki nson's reputation as one of the
roost popular lecturers in the country will
draw public attention to her novel which Tick
nor and Fields have just published. Those
who have listened to her eloqneut lectnres
will turn to her book with eager interest.
hat Answer" has a skilfully construct
ed plot, and deals with gome of the most im
portant events of the late war. The story is
one that will deeply interest those who read
simply for entertainment; the characters, inci
dents, aud situations will attract and charm
novel-readers: and no thoughcful person can
be uninterested in the bold and earnest treat
ment which some important political and
social questions receive in this volume.
THE HALF-DOLLAR TEXNYSOS. —The nine
different editions of the laureate's poetry
which Ticknor and Fields have hitherto pub
lished seem insufficient to meet all the re
quirements of the reading public. Their
Diamond Edition, published two years ago,
was a miracle of cheap, elegant, and compact
book-making. It is quite outdone, however,
in cheapness and compactness, by the Half-
Dollar Edition of Tennyson's Complete
Poems, just published by Ticknor and Fields-
This edition is from new types, set in double
columns, is remarkable for beauty, and no
danger to the eyes need be feared from read
ing it. It is neatly and durably bound in a
handsome green paper cover, with an ex
cellent vignette head of Tennyson. No one
can now complain that Tennyson is beyond
his reach, when his intire poems can be bad
in handsome form for fifty cents.
These books can be procured of any book
seller, or directly from Ticknor A Fields)
Boston.
SUNSHINE AND SHABOW OR NEW YORK. —We
are in receipt of advance sheets of a new work
by Matthew Hale Smith entitled SunshiDe and
Shadow in New York. It will soon be issued
from the press of J. B. Burr A co., Boston.
Mr. Smith is perhaps belter known to the
country as "Burleigh" the New York corres
pondeut of the Boston Journal- His well
known ability and popularity as a writer and
correspondent of the leading journals of the
New York and Boston press give the fullest
assurance that his book will not only be a
popular but also an instructive ODe. The
busy marls of commerce, theups and downs
of fortune, life among the high and the low,
indeed every phase of life and fortune in our
modern Gotham is sketched with the hand of
a master. The work will be printed on good
paper and finely illustrated. It will be sold
only by subscription and agents are wanted
ih every County and Town to canvass for it.
For full particulars and terms, address the
publishers, J. B. Burr A co., 18 Asylum
Street, Hartford. Conn.
SEYMOUR AND BLAIR RIOT. —A family quar
rel came off among the friends of Seymour
and Blair, on Friday the 18th ult, after the
debate at Schellsburg had closed. The Re-~
publicans bad quietly dispersed and gone to
their homes, but the followers of Seymour
and Blair having as usual imbibed pretty
freely of the "0 be joyful" were not so
prompt to leave. After swinging around for
a considerable time tbe party hauled up at a"
Democratic bar room where tbe whiskey
worked out its legitimate consequences in the
shape of curses, black eyes, bruised noses,
broken bottles Ac., Ac. Having become a
little too Democratic for the proprietor they
were promptly bustled out of tbe establish
ment and the doors closed. This Democratic
difficulty was finally settled on Saturday last
before a Democratic justice of the peace. Sey
mour and Blair whiskey seems to possess the
the true spirit of the New York
it inevitably brews a fight. Give Seymour,
Blair and whiskey the cold shoulder and we
will have Peace.
THE ALABAMA CLAIMS are now up again for
adjustment and the British government has
expressed itself desirous of an arbitration.
Among the claims persistently pressed, are
those of tbe ever present and active J. C.
Ayer A Co., for the value of shipments of
Cherry Pectoral, Sarsaparilla, Ague Cure,
and Pills, in transit for Oregon, Vancouver's
Island and Russian America, destroyed on
tbe Anna Schmidt off the coast of South
America. So universal is the use of their
remedies, that they are afloat on almost every
sea: and this firm is frequently caught between
the upper and nether millstones of contend
ing nations. But they are known to stand up
for their rights, and to get them.—Repub

ISTHECITY. Quite a number ot the "'Boys

week, attending tbe great soldiers conven
tion. Wonder how many copperheads from
this district went to that convention with a
dead union soldier's discharge papers in their
pockets? More than one —These cowardly
Democrats who never saw an army are as bu
sily engaged hunting discharge papers now,
as they were a few years ago hunting sub

"How Chilly the Evenings in October!"
This is a common remark, yet how few think of
the danger of exposing themselves to their influ
ence? In all low, marshy localities Ague and
Fever prevail at this season of the year. In this
desease there is invariably more or less derange
ment of the liver and digestive organs. The
remedies usually raforted to hare reference to
preventing the paroxysm or breaking up tbe
chills. If this is effected without removing the
cause, rthpss is inevitable. lIOSTETTER'c
STOMACH BITTERS strike diiectly at tbe foun
dation of tbe evil, by acting on Ibe liver and cor
recting digestion. Tbe cause being removed, tbe
paroxysm will cease, ana the chills cannot return.
When the patient is week and debilitated, the
.BITTERS should be resorted to, as they will
strengthen and tone Abe stomach, allay all nervous
irritation, and infuse renewed animatiun intu the
bitberto drooping spirits, without emailing the
danger of reaction.
UOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS is truly
a preventive medicine, rendering even tbe feeblest
frame impervious to all malarious influences; and,
as a stomachic and anti-billious medicine it is
incomparable, and no one who values his health can
afford to do without it. Fortify the system with
•his inestimable tonic and invigorant, and tl e
*-Chills of October Evenings will have no terror
for you.

CATHARTIC PILLS.
FOR ALL THE PURPOSES OF A LAXATIVE
MEDICINE.
Perhaps no one medicine ia so universally re
quired by everybody as a cathartic, nor was
ever any before so univeraallv adopted into use,
in every country and among all classes, as this
mild but efficient purgative Pill. The obvious
reason is, that it is a more reliable and far more
effectual remedy than any other. Those wbobave
used it, know that it cured them: those who have
not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends,
and all know that what it does once it does al
ways—that it never fails through any fault or
neglect of its composition. We have thousands
upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable
cures of the following complaints, but such cures
are known in every neighborhood, and we need
not publish them Adapted to all ages and con
ditions in all climates: containing neither calomel
norauy deleterious drug, they may bo taken with
safety by anybody. Their sugar coating preserves
them ever fresh and makes them pleasant to take,
while being purely vegetable no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.
Tbey operate by their powerful influence on the
internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate
it into healthy action—remove the obstructions
of the stomach, bowels, liver, and other organs of
the body, restoring their irregular action to
health, and by correcting, wherever they exist,
such derangements as are the first origin of di
ease.
Minute directions ate giveu in the wrapper on
the box, fur the following complaints, which these
Pills rapidly cure:
For Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Lietlesmness, Lan
guor and Loss of Appetite, tbey should be takeu
moderately to stimulate the stomach and restore
its healthy tone aud action.
For Lieer Complaint and its various symptoms,
liil'ous Headache, Sick Headache, Jaundice or
Green Sickness, Bilious Colic and Bilious Feeers,
they should be judiciously taken for each ■ ase. to
correct the diseased action or remove the obstruc
tions which cause it
For Dysentery or Diarrha, but one mild dose
is generally required.
F<>r Rheumatiem, Gout, Gravel, Palpitation of
tbe Heart, Pain in the Side, Bark aud Loins, they
should be continuously takeu, as required, to
change the diseased action of the system. With
such change these complaints disappear.
F'or Dropsy and Dropsical Swellings they should
be taken in large and frequent doses to produce
the effect of a drastic purge.
F'or Suppressions a large dose should betaken
as it produces tbe desired effect by sympathy.
As a Dinner fill, take one or two I'ilL- to pru
mote digestion and relieve the stomach.
An occasional dose stimulates the stomach and
bowels into heaithv action, restores the appetite,
and invigorates the system. Hence it ia often ad
vantageous where no serious derangement exists.

Tie Chinese Government having (through tbe
Ho a. Anson Hnrlingame) conceded (o th is Compa
ny the privilege of connecting the great seaports
of the Empire by submarine electric telegraph ca
ble, tre propose commencing operations in Ckina,
and laying doscn a line of nine hundred miles at
once, beta ten the following ports, viz :
Population,
Canton 1,000,000
Macoa _— .". ...60,000
; Hong-Kong 250,000
' ciwatow .....200,000
Amov 250,000
Foo-Cbow 1,250,000
Wan-Cbu 300,000
Ningpo -.400,000
Hang Cbean 1.200,000
Shanghai ......1,000,000
Total - 5,910,000
a
These ports have a foreign commerce of $900,-
000,000, and an enormous domestic trade, beside
which wc have the immense internal commerce of
the Empire, radiating from them points, through
its canals and navigable rivers.
The cable being laid, this Company proposes
erecting land lines, and establishing a speedy and
trustworthy means ef communication, which must
command there, as everywhere else, the commu
nications of tbe Government, of business, and of
social life, especially in China. She has no pos
tal system, and her only means now of communi
cating information is by conriers on land, and by
steamers on water.
The Western World knows that China is a
very large country, in the main densely peopled;
but a few yet realize that she contains more than
a third of the human race. The latest returns
made to her central authorities for taxing purpo
ses by the local magistrates make her population
Four Hundred and Fourteen Millions , and this is
more likely to be under than over the actual ag
gregate. Nearly all of these, who are oyer ten
years old, not only can but dp read and write.
Her civilization is peculiar, but her literature is
as extersive as that of Europe. China is a land
of teachers and traders; and the latter are ex
ceedingly quick to avail themselves of every
proffered facility for procuring early information.
It is observed in California that the Chinese make
great nse of the telegraph, though it there trans
mits messages in English alone. To day great
numbers of fleet steamers are cwned by Chinese
merchants, and need by them exclnsively for the
transmission of early intelligence. If tbe tele
graph we propose, connecting all their great sea
ports, were now in existence, it is believed that
its business would pay the cost within the first
two years of its successful operation, and would
steadily increase thereafter.
No enterprise commends itself as a grea-er de
gree remunerative to capitalists, and to our whole
people. It is of a vast national importance com
mercially, politically, and evangelically.
The stock of this Company has been unquali
fiedly recommended to capitalists and business
men, as a desirable investment by editorial arti
cles in the New Y'ork Herald, Tribune, World,
Times, Post, Express, Independent, and in the
Philadelphia North American, Frees, Ledger, In
quirer, Age, Bulletin aqd Telegraph.
Shares of this Company, to a limited number,
may be obtained at SSO each, $lO payable down,
sls on tbe Ist of November, and $25 payable in
monthly instalments of $2 56 each, commencing
December 1, ISfiS, on application to
