AIM at perfection in everything, though in most things it is unattained; however, they who aim at it, and persevere, will come much nearer to it than those whose laziness and despondency make them give it up as unat tainable. The above is particularly applicable to the subject of health—all should do everything in their power to sttain perfection, as near as possible, in tbat. This can be secured by a regular and continued use of the Zingari Bitters. THERE is no mistake about it. PLANTATION BITTERS will ward off Fever and Ague and all kindred diseases, if used in time. No family need suffer from this distressing com. plaint if they will keep PLANTATION BITTERS :n the house: and use it pccording to direc tions. The most important ingredient of this medicine is Calisaya or Peruvian Bark, which is known to be tha finest and purest tonic in the vegetable kingdom. The extract of this Bark is the active principle of all the good lever and Ague Medicines prescribed by in telligent doctors. Calisaya Bark is osed ex tensively in the manufacture of PLANTATION BITTERS, as well as qninine, and we dare say j l *? owe their popularity mostly to that fact. I • e can recommend them. THE Retr.

RIPCBLICAS MEETING.— Tbe Republicans of Bedford County met in mats meetings! the, Court house, pursuant to the c!l of the chair man ot the County Committee, on Tuesday" evening. Though the weather was inclement the Court room was well filled. Tbe meeting was organized by J. W. Ling enfelter Esq by calling Daniel Sams to the chair. G. W. Figard, George Blackburn, D. M. Black, J. S. Hetrick, Francie Growden, were then elected Vice President#, andW. C. Hollahan and M. L Hetrick, Secretaries of tbe meeting. The following Gentlemen were then appointed a committee on reso lutions. JT. Keagy, Tobias Snyder, Jacob Corley, H. C. Lashly, W. Kirk, D. S. Elliott, J. R. Durborrow, John Lutz. J. B. Cessna Esq then addressed the meet ing in a short speech in his usual happy style. Hon J. H. Longenecker was then called upon and responded in an able and eloquent vin dication of repnblican principles. W. C. Hollohan followed iu one of hit powerful de nunciations ot Copperbeadism and a scathing review of the record of the party. At the close of his speech tbe Committee on resolu tions reported the following series of resolu tions which were unauimously adopted. Resolved, Ist, The Union Republicans of Bedford county assembled in mass meeting this ninth day of February 18fi9, do hereby repeat with delight their gratification that a man like General Grant has iu tbe Provi deuce of God been called to the chief raajis tracy of this Republican nation —a man wbo is above a'l cliques and parties—self reliant and boneat and determined to put bis foot down against all extravagance and dishonesty and administer the government wisely for the true interest of the whole people. Resolved, 2d, That we devoutly thank tbe Great Disposer of events, that tbe circling wheels of time have brought us to tbe eve of the occasion when Andrew Johnson who proved so false to his promises and recreant to his trust is about to retire from the execu tive chair iu which he was placed by the hand of an assassin, to be a national scourge and disgrace. Resolved, 3d, That the time has come when it is eminently wise and proper that the na tional Constitution should be eo amended as to make suffrage, that sure badge and guaran tee of free manhood, impartial; and that as the true and only safe basis of Republican instt tutions is the intelligence of the people, and the great enemy of free government it igno ranee, and its ally superstition, impaitial suf frage should be accompanied with a Constitu tional provision requiring every State to pro vide by law for tbe establishment of common schools for the education of all children of proper age without respect to color at the ex pense of the States. Resolved, 4, That we call upon the Forti eth Congress withont delay to give to the country by Constitutional amendment univer sal education and impartial suffrage and thus lake tbe vexed question of the statua of the negro out of the hands of partizan dema gogues who iu tbe South and in the North are using it for the sole purpose of agitation and to distract the people and retard the gen eral peace and prosperity to which the coun try ought before this to have attained. Resolved, 5, That we again express our satisfaction at the course and conduct of onr worthy State executive Gen. Join W. Geary. His high personal character and the wisdem, honesty and economy of bis administration make bim an executive of which our great commonwealth may well be proud. He baa served the State faithfully and proved true to his political professions and should be re nominated. Resolved , 6. That we also in favor of the nomination of Hon. Henry W. Williams for Judge of the Supreme Court. He was justly entitled two years ago to the seat which Judge Sharswood occupies by means of fraudulent votes. Resolved. 7. That we endorse the action of the late Republican county Convention in es tablishing in this county the Crawford county system of selecting candidates for local office. Resolved. 8, Tbat we heartily endorse the course of our representative in the State Leg islature, the Hon. Jacob H. Longenecker, and have the utmost confidence in his integrity of purpose and believe tbat he will honestly and satisfactorily carry out the wishes of the peo pie in all matters in his sphere relating to the economv of State. Resolved , 9, That we congratulate our fel low Republicans of the State upon the elec tion of the Hon. John Scott of Huntingdon to the United States Senate. His integrity and ability will make him an ornament to the State. On motion of W. M. Hall Esq., the fol lowing resolution was unanimously adopted Resolved. That we recognize with grati tude the services of those ably conducted and well edited papers the Bedford INQUIRER. and the Bedford County Press, during the late campaign, and regard tbem as most able exponents of the progressive principles and sentiments of the Union Republican party of Bedford county and recommend ihem as de serving of tne patronage of the Republicans of the county. Hon John Cessna our Congressman elect was then loudly called for and responded in a most eloquent address. The meeting was enlivened during the in tervals by the presence of the Republican Silver Cornel Band of Bedford who d.acoursed some of their choicest music on the occasion, the thanks of the meeting were tendered them for their attendance and music SCIENCE AND ART. — Whitney, the scientific illnsionist, opens his budget of necromanic wonders and philosophic cunositiea in Bed ford on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings of next week the 16th and 17th insts in aid of the Bedford Cemetery association. The price of Tickets is only 25cts. and are for sale at Thos. Lyons' Store, T. M. Lynch's store, INQUIRER Book Store, Adam Cam's Confec tionary Store and at the Prothonatory's Office. Vr. Whitney has an extensive and beautiful cabinet of apparatus and gives a change of programe on the second evening. He has been before the public many years and is well and favorably known all over the country. Speaking of bis performance some years ago in that city, the Cleveland Dailg Revieic said. We can assure our readers that he is all and even more than he pretends to be in the magic art, and ranks well with the best and most celebrated of his profession. We were par ticularly struck with the simplicity of manners and ease with which he performs bis experi ments. He pats on no airs and assumes no false names, but simply does what he un dertakes to do, and in a styie unsurpassed by McAllister, or any of the great names. We like Whitney, and are sure he is liked every where. HE RODE TEN MILES TO SEE THE ECLIPSE. —On Wednesday evening of last week, the eclipse of the moon was advertised to take place, provided the weather was fair. About six o'clock in the evening a gentleman from the country rode into town, and after dispo sing of his horse, located himself in a favora ble position to watch the course of the moon, until she should hide her full face in the deep shadow which it had been truly predicted would fall upon her. The silvery orb made its appearance above the mountain tops ex actly on time—not a minute too late— butour country frieud, aud numerous others, were vexed to see a film of milky clouds covering its face,- and the vexation increased as the clouds grew heavier, until the moon was entirely obscured and a very slight shower descended. About the time the eclipse came to a final close, the sky cleared sufficiently to show us that Mrs. Moon was as bright as ever, and the gentleman from the rural districts mounted his horse in the worst possible humor, "cussing" considerably because, after he had ridden ten miles purposely to see the eclipse, the tantalizing clouds bad cheated him out of the sight. We hope the next eclipse may be visible from tbat gentleman's house, as well as from Cumberland. Cum berland Civilian and Telegraph. STOP!—WHO? MS? —Yss, Yoc. WHESS? At G. K.

PAPER Flour and Buckwheat sacks con stantly in store and for sale by. 8®- G. B. OSTSR & Co. TBB NORTH AMEBIC AH Review for January has been on our table for several days. The number is an unusually good one and contains several articles any one of which is well cal cataled to sustain its position as the leading exponent of American thought. The open ing essay Gottfried Wilbelm Leiboite by A. E. Kroeger is an exploration in the field of Ger man Philosophy and Literature. The mental Faculties of Brutes is a vindication of our "poor relations" by George S. Cary. The Tariff of the United States, by E. H. Derby is a plea for Freetrade—a lame argument for a bad cause. The writer can see no national prosperity save in a large foreign commerce, without respect to the balance of trade or dif ferent conditions of the trading nations. He like all freetraders, advocates a tariff ooly for revenue and would lay the heavy duties on such articles of necessity as the rich and poor alike are obliged to have and which at the same time wears obliged to import. It ia seldom we Euda writer in the North Ameri can guilty of such glaring inconsistencies as appear ia this article, yet this is perhaps more the result of defending a bad canse than of the carelessness of the writer. The looseness with which he uses terms is most glaring for one who proposes to argue a question of political economy. He speaks of the pros perity of England under tree-trade and in the same breath he admits that what he and british manufacturers call free-trade means a rate of duties sufficiently high to protect all british manufacturers from all outside com petitors. If the writer were exact in bis use of terms he would not call that free trade in reference to british interests, which he chooses to call a high or prohibitory tariff in the LTni led States. Honesty is the best policy, if men will refuse to act from any higher motive than policy. If the writer had been thor oughly booest in his argument he would have called the same thing by the same name here aa in England. In the same perverse strain the writer laments the falling off in our im ports of cotton goods, which is only an evi dence that we are manufacturing more our selves and are supplying our own markets in itead ol being obliged to import. Sir Richard Steele by Henry R. Montgomery. The New Catalogue ot Harvard College Library by Charles A. Cutter. Karl Otto vou Bismark 1 H. Villard, Railroad Inflation by Charles Francis Adams Jr. are all well written, able essays well worthy the pages of the North American. The Revolution in England, by Goldwin Smith is a brilliant article that will attract the attention of politi cal students and which all ought to read. A Look Before and after is a thoughtful but hopeful discussion of the dangersand difficul ties besetting our national government, that will well repay perusal. No lover of Nathan iel Hawthorns will fail to read, among the short critical notices in this number, the charming, tender little essay founded on the recent publication of Hawthorne's "Note Book," Indeed, this number of the North American Revietr is, on the whole, one which would do credit to the scholarship and literary style, as well as to the ability and practical knowledge, of any country.—Published by Fields Osgood & Co. Boston: Terms st>,oo per annnm. To OUR PATRON'S. —We have a large amount of money charged upon our books, but we find the money in our pocket very scarce. Our friends have always responded liberally to our call and we trust that they will do so again. We have been building during the past season, and our carpenters, masons, lumbermen, painters, in short every one we employ wants money. In fact money is the very thing we want onrselves. Now all we ask is that every one who owes ns, however small the sum, will promptly pay us. Every dollar we get will pay two dollars of debts. We only want those who owe us to pay, in order that we may pay our deLts: and we are quite sure that all this class will cheerfully aid us in so laudable an enterprise. Every one can tell the exact amount be owes us for subscriptions by examining tha label that ha finds each week on bis paper. Geo. Giles Apl. 168 indicates that Mr. Giles has not paid in advance for hit paper but has been going it on tick. Now if he knows how to save money he will hurry up and pay us $2.50 before Apl. 1. 69 for alter that time it will be $3.00; if ha had paid for it nine months ago it would have only been $2.00 and be would have saved 50cts. In the same way each one can determine how much he owes, always re membering that it is economy to pay in ad vance. All who owe us for advertising if they hava not received bills, can ascertain the amount by calliug at our office, where we will at all times be pleased to see them, and to receive and receipt for all the little bills due us. Come along quick. We want money badly or we would not ask for it. t. f. WHO WAXTS A SEWING MACHINE ? —We have a new $55,00 Grover and Baker sewing machine which we will dispose of on easy terms to any one who wants a good machine: and who does not want a good sewing ma chine ?

The Inclement Season, And its effects on the Weak and Feeble. The drafts which searching cold makes up on the vita! powers of the debilitated and del icate are not less severe than tbe drain noon their strength caused by excessive heat. The vast disparity between tbe temperature of over-heated rooms and offices, at this season, and the frigidity of the outer air, is a fruitful source of sickness. To fortify the body against the evil consequences of the sudden alternations of heat and cold referred to, the vital organization should be strengthened and endowed with extra resistant power by the use of a wholesome invigorant: and of all preparations for this purpose, (whether em braced in the regular pharmacopccia, or ad vertised in the public journals.) there is none that will compare in purity and excellence with HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIT TERS. Acting directly upon the organ which converts the food into the fuel of life, the preparation imparts to it a tone and vigor which is communicated to every fibre of the frame. Tbe digestive function being accel crated by its tonic operations, the liver regu lated by its anti-bilious properties, and tbe waste matter of tbe system carried off punc tually by iu mild aperient action, the whole organization will necessarily be ia the best possible condition to meet the shocks of win ter and the sudden changes of temperature. Tbe weak and sensitive, especially, cannot encounter these vicissitudes with safety, un less their tender systems are strengthened and braced by artificial means. Every liquor sold as a staple of trade is adulterated, and, were it otherwise, mere alcohol is simply a temporary excitant, which, when iu first effect* have tubaided, leave* the physical powers (and the mind aa well,) in • worse condition than before. HOSTETTER S BIT TEKS, on the other hand, contain the ea aentia! properties of the most valuable tonic and alterative roots, barks and herbs, and their active principal is ike mellowest, leas*, exciting, andj most inuocuoui of all diffusive stimulants.
