HUNTINGDON COUNTY AGRICULTURAL FAIR
—The Committee of Arrangements for the
Agricultural Fair, to be held in this place
nest week, commencing on Wednesday, have
been actively engaged ever since their ap
pointment, in making all due and proper ar
rangements. Their work has been promptly
and well done. It now remains for the peo
ple throughout our county, who are interest
ed in Agricultural affairs—(and who is not?)
—to turn out en masse and bring their arti
cles of Agriculture and Manufacture for ex
hibition and examination. Let every one—
male and female—old and young—bring
something—don't neglect it because you may
think somebody else will have better articles
on exhibition—bring the best you have, and
if you fail to take a premium this fall, you
can improve on it, until next fall. Let there
be a general turn out of our people, and let
every one bring something to exhibit!
The tickets of admission are printed, and
our neighbor, Judge GwIN, will be found at
his residence, ready and willing at all proper
hours, between this and the fair, to supply
those who may call on him. Those persons
who can conveniently secure their tickets be
fore the commencement of the Fair, should
do so.
TI cAgrnozac QUESTION.
We have said before, and we repeat it, that
it does not and never did appear to us a ra
tional question, in determining a man's fitness
for office, whether he is a Catholic or a Pres
byterian. We have ever condemned the prin
ciple; it is anti-Christian; and we have no re
spect for the individual who teaches or preaches
it. But, upon this question, all know the
course the _Huntingdon Journal has pursued
—all know that it has long been the repre
sentative and advocate of the vilest bigotry.
It has traduced members of the Catholic
church, without stint or measure—it has not
only opposed them as candidates for office, no
matter- what may have been their claims, their
honesty and capacity, but they have-went fur
ther, and set up a mournfulhowl over the fact
that they are regarded as white men, and
even receive employ—that they are not put
under the ban of society, forced to a state of
abject dependency upon the charity of such
shylocks as themselves, and degraded below
the negro race which they are endeavoring to
elevate to an equality with white men.
It was to confound them, and to expose
their damning inconsistency that we publish
ed what is now almost universally admitted
a fact that John C. Fremont, their candidate
for President, was, if he is not now, an adhe
rent of the church they would proscribe. The
evidence is accumulating and convincing.
par -We respect an honest man ; he is the
noblest work of God. ; but we have no rever
ence for a time-server, who wears two faces.
For a man who will barter his religious faith
for a political office, we have only—we will
not say what.
We have just received from a gentleman
of high standing, the following communica
tion from the shipmates of Col. FREMONT,
which may be implicitly relied upon as au
thentic
Editors Daily Pennsylvanian.
Is Col. Fremont a Catholic P—Daring the
three years that Col. Fremont served as
schoolmaster on board the United States
Sloop of War Natchez, on the coast of Brazil,
under the command of Captain Zantzinger,
he always professed to be a Catholic, and as
such, refused to attend worship in the Pro
testant churches ; and on entering the Catho
lic churches at Rio Jenario, Montevideo and
Buenos .Ayres, always rendered such acts of
homame as are only rendered by Catholics.
This factis well known to all his
OLD SHIPMATES.

A, Brown & Co., has been replenished with
n large and complete stock of Hardware, and

CORRESPONDENCE' OF TRIM GLOBE.
The People Moving ! •
PETERSIIIMG, SEPT. !.26, 185 G.
MR. LEWIS—The Democratic meeting held
here to-day was the largest pOlitical- assem
blage that ever met in this -place. The pro
cession was formed at 1 o'clock P. M. by Gen.
R. C. McGILL, as Chief Marshal. Maj. Geo.
Bell, Henry Davis, Capt. Thos. Bell, Assist
ants. To the excellent music of the Excel
sior Brass Band of Huntingdon, and the mar
tial music from Alexandria and Shaver's
Creek, the people were marched to a grove
near town, where a stand and seats were
erected.
The meeting was organized by the selection
for President of Col. Wm. COLON, of Hun
tingdon. Vice Presidents, Jno. Porter, Jacob
13Earneame, Geo. Jackson, Hiram William
son, Alex. Oaks, Henry Davis, Itobt. Mcßir
ney, Alex. Bell, Dr. D. Houtz, Jno. Hirst,
Jonathan McAteer, Geo: Borst, David Greer,
and Geo. McCrum. Secretaries, Dr. J. M.
Gemmill, Thos. Bell, Gco. B. Porter, J. Long
enecker, Jas. Clayton, and G. W. Wakefield.
The President, in a neat speech, defined
the political issues of the campaign, and pre
sented the character of the different Presi
dential candidates for Statesmanship, fairly
before the people. After which, E. B. Pc
triken, Cyrus L. Pershing, Esqrs., Gen. A.
P. Wilson, and Col. Jno. Cresswell, Jr., sev
erally took the stand and ably acquitted them
selves. The effect was, that every Democrat
present, felt convinced that we have truth,
justice and reason upon our side, and that
our principles shall and will prevail. A large ,
number of old line Whigs present, defined
their position on the side of the experienced
Statesman, Jas. Buchanan. Mr. PERSIIING
was a stranger amongst us, and made many
valuable friends, as a man of his fluent ora
tory, high moral and intellectual qualities,
always does by mingling with the people.
The meeting closed in high glee, with three
cheers for the ladies in attendance, and three
times three for Buchanan & Breckinridge.
Democracy Still Active!
Quite a demonstration was made by the
Democrats of Tod township on Saturday even
ing 27th inst., at the Green School house, near
Eagle Foundry. The turnout was good—
evincing unmistakeable signs that Tire cause
of democracy and the prospects of Buchanan
and Breckinridge were growing brighter day
by day.
The meeting was organized by calling
ISAAC COOK, Esq., to the Chair, and Miles Mc-
Hugh, Isaac McClain, George Buchanan,
Ezeriah McClain and D. Hamilton, Vice Pres
idents. Elijah French and John McGrath
were appointed Secretaries.
After a few pertinent remarks by the Pres
ident, addresses were delivered by E. Mc-
Ikon - , Esq. and Gen. G. W. SPEER. The real
issue before the people was ably discussed, as
well as the many false issues raised by Black
Republican Abolitionists inimical to liberty,
justice and morality. The fraud attempted
to be perpetrated by the abolition leaders on
the honest supporters of FILLMORE was con
vincingly pressed home, disclosing facts that
will have a telling effect upon the minds of
the people between this and the November
election. Several Fillmore men were present,
and if attention be any evidence of interest,
they betrayed no little of it, while listening
to Yankee-nutmeg-abolition villanies exposed.
On motion, the proceedings were ordered
to be published in the Huntingdon, ,Gtobe, and
the meeting adjourned.
Sugar Grove Sabbath School Celebra-
Ma. Ennort:—Sir—Permit me, through
the columns of your excellent paper, to give
a brief account of a celebration we had the
pleasure of attending on Saturday last, of the
Sugar Grove Sabbath school.
They assembled at the school house about
one o'clock, where they formed into proces
sion, at the head of which was carried a ban
ner trimmed with flowers, bearing appropri
ate inscriptions. Every thing being ready,
the company started in the direction of the
place selected, which was a beautiful locust
grove, on the farm of Mr. H. Grady, about
quarter of a mile distant. On arriving there
we found everything prepared for our recep
tion. The first object that met our eye was
a table about fifty feet long, on winch was
standing quite a variety of buckets, baskets,
&c. Next we came to where the seats were
arranged for our comfort and convenience.—
And last, but not least, we espied two large
swings, strongly secured to the trees over
head; and I assure you there was little time
lost in having them put in motion. The com
pany was then left at liberty to amuse them
selves as best they could, until shortly after
three o'clock when all were summoned to the
table. I had heard it said that though the
people in this neighborhood were not so
wealthy, yet were noted for their liberality,
and the manner in which they provided for
the table on this occasion, proves the asser
tion beyond a doubt. Turkeys, chickens,
pies, cakes, and almost every little delicacy
you could imagine, were served up in a style
that excelled any thing we had ever before
witnessed. There were about one hundred
and forty partook of the repast, and from ap
pearance, I believe there were provisions
enough for as many more.
At half past four o'clock Mr. llag,y, the su
perintendent of the school, called the assem
bly together and had order restored. After
making a few remarks he introduced Mr. R.
B. Brown, who made an address on behalf of
Sabbath Schools, showing their importance,
the manner of conducting them, &c. We
were then entertained by the ladies with a
few pieces of music which were quite sulta;
ble for the occasion ; after which three cheers
were given for the Sunday school celebration,
and the company then separated. Every
thing passed off pleasantly—nothing happen
ing to mar the happiness and pleasure of the
day. Yours respectfully, B * 4:- **.

Lmvis:—The canal from Huntingdon
to Hollidaysburg, has been this summer in
better order than any of us could reasonably
expect, from the excessive dryness of the sea
son, and its "rickety" locks. The cause, no
doubt, is attributable to the promptness of
the Supervisor, who is a vigilant officer, and
good and efficient foremen under him; with
out whose promptness and efficiency, the
." ditch" would have been infinitely more dif
ficult in navigating than any season since its
completion. And amongst the foremen on
this canal I think there is not one deserves
more praise of the boatmen than FRANCIS
CONNER, and who is almost universally awar
ded it—as an efficient and attentive foreman
—a gentlemanly, courteous and accommoda
ting officer. His division (from Piper's dam
to above Water-street) though amongst the
hardest to keep in repair, is nevertheless, 'al
ways in good navigable order. "Long may
such officers wave" as Mr. Conner, is the de
sire of a BoArmAN'.
XtEe'lVe are requested to state that the in
dividual who took the likeness of a lady from
the Daugerreotype Gallery of Mr. GEO. H.
AUXER, at the Court House, is most earnest
ly requested to return it. The person re
turning it will receive ten dollars, and no
questions will be asked. It is the likeness
of a lady who is now dead—and it is the
only likeness of her known to have been
ever taken. Return it by all means
Black Republican Sentiment
rEENKr . C. WfuonT, who is lecturing for
FREMONT, in Michigan, has written a letter
to WM. LLOYD GARRISON, in which he gives
utterance to the following infamous senti
ment :
"My text is—DOWN WITH THE AMER
ICAN UNION: UP WITH THE NORTH
ERN REPUBLIC ! THE THOUGHTS OF
THOUSANDS ARE TURNED TO THIS
GLORIOUS CONSUMMATION BY RE
CENT EVENTS IN WASHINGTON AND
KANSAS."
Traitor as he is, this fellow is honest. lle
utters boldly what all the other Black Repub
licans aim at and desire, but dare not say so
at present for fear of indignation.—
With the many evidences of the disunion
principles of the FREMONT Abolitionists which
have been laid before the people, it is aston
ishing that ho f should be supported by so large
a body of citizens as have rallied under his
black banner. Treason is rife in the land—
and it behooves the patriotic, national men
of all parties to rally together to put it down.
Eloquent Passage.
'he following eloquent passage occurs in
Lieutenant Governor McArthur's spec ch made
recently at the "banner presentation" at
Milwaukie :
"The power of the Democracy consists in
its universality. It obliterates all geographi
cal distinction. It is neither obstructed by
the mountain's height nor washed out by the
passage of a river. Like the hosts of Israel,
it passes dry shod over the waters. The
Potomac can burst asunder the Blue Ridge,
and cleave a pathway for its current, but it
cannot divide the Democracy of Virginia,
Maryland, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.
Sectionalism draws a line, on one side of
which it abjures nearly one-half of the coun
try with incendiary exaggeration, and pro
claims that if her candidates are to be elect
ed at all, it must be the united support of a
certain class of the Northern States. The
Democracy of each State in the Union plucks
a star from the blue concave of the skies
with which to adorn her banner, forming a
glorious constellation from the Arostook to
the Rio Grande. Sectionalism marches un
der the union flag of Republican faction and
Know-Nothing proscriptive intolerance.—
They are associated witn those who would
shut the door on the oppressed sons of Eu
rope, and proscribe with fire and slaughter
all who worship at the altars of a certain
faith, while Democracy, keeping step to the
music of the Union, inculcates the generous
doctrines of civil and religious liberty, and
the -political equality of all men, irrespective
of birth or station, who are willing to assume
the obligations of citizenship.
" These great issues invest this contest
with an interest and importance unequalled
since the adoption of the federal compact.—
The sons of freedom and the friends of the
Union are rallying to our support. They be
hold in us the only party based on broad na
tional grounds, and regard our success to in
sure the safety and destiny of the American
people."
How Kansas Outrages are Manufactur-
We clip the following paragraph from a
late issue of one of our Ohio exchanges. We
have no doubt but that Mr. Moore is correct
in his surmises as to the origin of the Kan
sas news with which the Black Republican
sheets arc wont to gull their readers :
" Hon. Eli Moore, formerly a prominent
member of Congress from New York city,
has been a resident of Kansas for more than
a year past. He writes as follows from Le
compton, June 20:
" The truth is, neither the New Mrle Times
nor Tribune has any correspondent in this
place. This I know to be so. Thc correspon
dents of these papers live in the city of New
York, and undoubtedly arc attached to those
respective qffices. I cannot believe that any
man can be so debased—so utterly lost to all
manly feeling, honesty and truth—as to de
liberately make such infamous misstatements
as characterize all the correspondence which
appears in the Abolition papers East. The
only thing that can be urged in extenuation
of their false representations is, that their
feverish and fanatical imaginations repre
sent to their weak and deluded minds that
what they say in relation to Kansas affairs
is true. is not this a liberal construction on
my part ? Not being in possession of the
facts of the case, they must in order to satis
fy the craving of their employers for the ter
rible and sublimely horrible, needs tax their
poor and morbid imaginations. Unfortunate
correspondents! wicked or deluded editors !"

INIPORTANT TO EVERYBODY.-
- For the last three years, I have been engaged in a bu-
SineSS known only to myself. and, comparatively, few
others, whom I have instructed for the sum of $2OO each,
which has averaged me at the rate of $3,000 to $3,000 per
annum ; and having made arrangements to go to Europe
next Spring, to engage in the same business, I am willing
to give full instructions in the art to any person in the
United States or Canadas, who will remit me the sum of
$l. lam induced, from the success I have been favored
with,and the many thankful acknowledgments I have re
ceive from those whom I have instructed, and who are
making from $5 to $l5 PER DAT at it, to give any person an
opportunity to engage in this business, which is easy,
pleasant, and very profitable, at a small cost. There is pos
itively No limmum in the matter. References of the best
class can be given as regards its character, and I can refer
to persons whom I have instructed, who will testify that
they are making from $5 to $l5 per day at the same. 3t
is a business in which either ladies or gentlemen can en
gage, and with perfect ease snake a very handsome income.
Several tadbs in various parts of New York State, Penn
sylvania and Maryland, whom I have instructed, are now
snaking from $3 to $6 per day at it. It is a GENERAL BUSI
NESS, and but a few shillings is required to start it. Upon
receipt of $l. I will immediately send to the applicant a
printed circular containing full instructions in the .art,
which can be perfectly understood at once.
