THE HUNTINGDON GLOBE, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C.
From the Bedford Gazette.
THE ABOLITION CANDIDATE FOR
SENATOR.
Read his Record and Note his Inconsist-
encies
war. It. Koowrz, the Abolition candidate
for Senator in this district, was a member of
the "Fillmore and Donelson State Committee
of PennsylVania," under the direction of
which committee were placed the interests
of the "American" nominee for then Pres
idency and Vice Presidency, in this State,
during the last campaign. This Committee
held a meeting at the Washington Hpuse, in
Philadelphia; October 16, 1856, where and
wheri Gen: Kddnt Was present; Turing its
sittings,
the Committee was visited by Xepu
tations from the Abolition, and Abolition-
Know-Nothing, Fremont State Committees,
for the avowed purpose of effecting the for
mation of a " Union" Electoral Ticket.—
These Fremont hucksters hovered about the
Fillmore Committee like so many cormo
rants, eager for the prey which they thought
so easily to clutch in their greedy talons ;
but they were repelled at every onset and
spurned from the presence of the men they
were tempting to join them in their igno
minious purposes. Two, or three, of the
twenty-three members of ! the Fillmore Com
mittee, present at the meeting referred to,
alone were willing to sacrifice their party
and its candidates to the interests of John
C. Fremont. Foremost among these stood
WM. H. KOONTZ. Whenever a proposi
tion was made by the Fremont Committees,
he voted for it. Whenever an arrangement
was proposed that was favorable to the Abo
lition candidates, his voice was raised in its
favor. He voted for the following resolution
offered by FR, JORDAN, of Bedford:
"Resolved, That if the friends of Fremont
" and Dayton accept and support the Ameri
" can Electoral Ticket, at the ensuing elec
" tion, we are willing that said Ticket may
" cast the Electoral vote of the State for Fre
" moat and Dayton, in case it will defeat
" Mr. Buchanan, and will not elect Fillmore
"and Donelson."
This was nothing more, nor less, than an
attempt to dispose of the Fillmore strength
for the benefit of Fremont, for well did both
JORDAN & KOONTZ know that Mr. Fill
more would not receive a sufficient number
of Electoral votes to elect him, and, there
fore, they were deliberately plotting to trans
fer the Fillmore party to the ranks of Fre
mont and Abolitionism. But, when ,they
found themselves foiled in their dastard at
tempt, in order to save their credit with their
"American" constituents in their respective
counties, they afterwards voted for a resolu
tion refusing to alter the " Straight Fillmore
Electoral Ticket," and rejecting the over
tures of the Fremont Committees, and which
couched in the following emphatic lan
guage:
"Resolved, That we decline to accept either
"of the propositions of the Republican State
"Committee, satisfied that the Electoral
"Ticket already in the field is the only one
"on which all opposed to Mr. Buchanan can
"successfully unite; and pledging it to un
" compromising opposition, and to the defeat
" under any and all circumstances of "his
" election."
On this resolution Koontz was found voting
iri the_ affirmative, thus veering completely
about from the position he had assumed in
supporting the propositions of the Abolition
ists. With this action, the Fillmore commit
tee adjourned, and thus not only left the
" Straight Fillmore Electoral Ticket" in the
geld, but adopted it as TUE Ticket to be sup
ported by the friends of Fillmore and Donel
son; and that ; too, with the approving voice
of Win. 11. Koontz. But behold the sequel l
A day, or two, subsequent to this meeting of
the Fillmore Committee, this same, Wm. 11.
Koontz who had agreed that the "Straight
Fillmore Electoral Ticket" was the one that
should receive the support of the Fillmore
men of Pennsylvania, went, side by side,
with FR. JORDAN, into a "Buzzard Feast"
Convention of the two Fremont Committees,
and assisted in forming that most shrewdly
planned of ~ .trAt, political gull-traps, the Abo
lition " Union Electoral Ticket
Nor did his labors for the benefit of the
Fremont party, end here. He went about
from place to place, making speeches in favor
of the " Union Electoral Ticket"' and de
nouncing the "Straight Ticket" which he
himself had endorsed. He wrote and pub
lished a letter in which he acknowledged
that he met with the Fremont Committees,
and took part in forming the "Union Electo
ral Ticket," and in which he tried to defend
that Ticket, and said that the logic of the
"Straight Americans" in opposing Union'
with, the Abolitionists, to him "savored very
considerably of corruption and dishonesty."
Such are some of the tergiversations, som
er-,settings, ground-and-lofty tumblings, shift
ings and turnings in politics, performed by
the present Abclition candidate for Senator.
We ask the honest and intelligent people of
Bedford county,--4s such a man worthy of
your support? Will you, can you, send such
a bundle of inconsistencies to Harrisburg as
the representative of your political senti
ments?
CORRESPONDENCE OF THE GLOBE.
MR. EDITOR :—While travelling in the cars
on Friday evening, 4th inst., I became ac
quainted with a couple of young men who
were on their way to engage in the profession
of teaching school in Franklin township.
The old saying that " birds of a feather
flock together," was that evening fully illus
trated to be a true one, for when we arrived
at Spruce Creek we were joined by Meisrs.
J. D. Brown, A. R. Miller, 11. T. White and
G. P. Eldredge, gentlemen known as active
members of our profession, and the first two
of whom are already engaged in said town
ship.
By the way, I must say a word in descrip
tion of Franklin township. It is one of the
largest, richest and most influential townships
in our county. The land is equal to any in
the county, and the great number of iron
works and other manufactories prove that it
is rich in minerals, and inhabited by an in
dustrious and persevering people.
It is not only of this that Franklin town
ship may boast, but also of her moral and in
tellectual worth. There is not a licensed tav
ern in the whole township, but instead, there
are three churches, nine school houses, and
.six or eight Sabbath schools !
The School Directors have proved them
selves worthy of the trust committed to them,
and the attendance and zeal manifested in
the Teachers' Institutes held in this, and ad
joining townships, during last winter, show
Conclusively, that Franklin has already en
rolled herself among the foremost in the good
cause of education.
But excuse my digression, as I have wan
dered from the subject which was on my
mind when I commenced writing.
Mr. J. D. Brown expressed his pleasure at
meeting so many of his fellow-laborers, and
informed us that he had called a meeting of
the parents and citizens of the vicinity to be
held at - his school room that evening.
At the proper hour we repaired thither,
and truly we were presented with a refresh
ing sight. We found the walls adorned with
a beautiful set of Outline Maps, Osgood's
Cards, &e., furnished by the teacher, who, to
use his own expression, "intends to work."
As a copy of the proceedings of the meet
ing has been handed to me by the Secretary,
I will make a few extracts threfrom to show
our brethren in other parts of the county,
that " Old Franklin" is in motion.
HooK ScnooL HOUSE, Sept. 4, '57
The Spruce Creek Teachers' Institute that
was so profitably and successfully carried on
during the past winter, re-opened on Friday
evening, 4th inst., in Mr. J. D. Brown's school
room, near Spruce Creek, known as the
" Hook School House."
Mr. H. T. White was called to the chair and
A. E. Miller appointed Secretary. By re
quest, Mr. Brown stated the object of the
meeting, proposed the following subject for
discussion, "What are the reciprocal duties
of teachers, parents and directors ?" and call
ed upon Mr. Eldgedge to open the same,
which he did with some able remarks. The
discussion was continued by Messrs. B. F.
Brown, Miller, Houck, Byer and others.
Mr. John Isett, Sr., then arose and address
ed. the meeting With practical and. forcible
suggestions, and offered the following resolu
tion :
I?esolved, That a committee be appointed
especially to visit, once a week, the hook
school:
The resolution was adopted and Mr. Isett
appointed chairman of that committee. The
subject before the meeting was then resumed,
and warmly discusssed, and a deep interest
excited in both teachers and citizens.
Arrangements were made for a subsequent
meeting to be held in Miller's school room on
Eden Hill, Friday evening, 18th inst y when
the subject of this meeting will be f l urther
discussed and other topics introduced. Asso
ciation adjourned to meet as above.
The Secretary in commenting on the meet
ing, truly says—" that strong interest is
awakened in teachers and parents in this vi
cinity, for the advancement of the education
of youth. The spark of intellect is already
enkindled in the minds of the young and their
friende, and our united efforts are requisite
to secure permanent results:"

Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma,
Larryngittis and all diseases of the throat and lungs, by
Medical Inhalation, lately . used in the Brounon Hospital,
London. The great point in the treatment of all human
maladies, isle) get at the disease in the direct manner.—
All medicines are estimated by their action upon the organ
requiring relief. This is the important fact upon which
Inhalation is based. if the stomach is diseased We take
medicine directly into the stein:fa. If the lungs are dis
eased, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines aro antidotes to disease and should
be applied to the very seat of disease. Inhalation is the
application of this principle to the treatment of the lungs,
for it gives us direct access to those intricate air cells, and
tubes which lie out of reach of every other means of ad
ministering medicines. The reason that Consumption,
and ether diseases of the lungs, have heretofore resisted
all treatment has been because they have never been ap
proached in a. direct manner by medicine. They were in
tended to act upon the lungs, and yet. were applied to the
stomach. Their action was intended to be local, and yet,
they were so administered that they should only act con
stitutionally, expending their immediate and principal ac
tion upon the unoffending stomach, whilst the foul ulcers
within the lungs were unmolested. Inhalation brings
the medicine in direct contact with the disease, without
the disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is
so simple, that it can be employed by the youngest infant
or feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach, or in
terfere in the least degree with the strength, comfort, or
business of the patient.
Other Diseases Treated.—ln relation to the following dis
eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ex
isting alone, I also invite consultation, I usually find them
promptly curable.
Prolapsus and all other forms of Female Complaints, Ir
regularities and Weakness.
Palpitation and all other forms of Heart Disease, Liver
Complaints, Dyspepsia, and all other diseases of stomach
and bowels, &c,

TESTIMONIALS FROM PROFESSORS AND OPINIONS
MI2 =ZI
"The Horace Waters' Pianos are known as among the
very best. We are enabled to speak of these instruments
with some degree of confidence, front personal knowledge
of their excellent tone and durable quality."—N. Evan
gelist.
Having inspected a lege number of the Horace Waters'
Pianos we can speak of their merits, from personal knowl
edge, as being of the very best quality."—arniactin Intelli
geneer.
Nothing at the State Fair displayed greater excellence
in any department than the Piano-Forte manufactured by
Horace Waters, of this city.—Ch urchman.
The following is taken from the " Christian Inquirer":
~ .The 'finest among the many pianos at the Crystal Palace
are those placed there by Horace Waters, whose instru
ments are always popular.
The following we take from the “Christian Advocate"
(Memphis, Tenn.:) "The Horace Waters, Pianos are built
of the best and most thoroughly seasoned material. Front
all we can learn of this establishment—said to be the lar
gest in the United States—we have no doubt that buyers
can do as well, perhaps better, at this than at any other
house in the Union?'
"Mr. Waters has been long established and is favorably
known. We speak from experience when wo assure our
readers that his prices are below those usually charged
for articles in his line."—Jacksonian, X. J.
"Your instruments are a sensible improvement upon
American Pionos, and an honor to the skilful manufacturer.
There is no doubt but they will be appreciated by the pub
lic and all admirers of true merit—Oscar Conzettant
The treble is clear, pure, powerful, and very melodious,
the base is deep, rolling, and sonorous: the middlepart is
rich, and sympathetic, and possessing the power of sing
ing, i. e. of uniting the sound of eacCtone, in a degree but
rarely achieved."---Henry C. Watson.
For power of tone, depthof brass, and brilliancy of tre
ble, together with accuracy of touch, they are equal to any
make 1 am-acquainted with, and I cordially recommend
them to those wishing to purchase.— V. C. Taylor.
"Our friends will rind at Mr. Waters' store the very
best asortment of music and of pianos to be found in the
United States, and we urge our southern and western
friends to give him a call whenever they go to New York."
—Graham's Magazine.
" We consider them worthy of special attention, from the
resonant and exceedingly musical tone which Mr. Waters
has succeeded in attaining."—Y. Y. Musical - 1472r1d and
Times.
"There is one which, for beauty of finish and richness
and brilliancy of tone, equals, if it does not excel, any
thing of the kind we have even seen. It is front the estab
lishment of Horace Waters. Being constructed of the best
and most thoroughly seasoned material, and upon im
proved principles, it is capable of resisting tho action of
the climate, and of standing a long time in tune.—Saran
nrah Savannah, Ga."
Waters' pianos and melodeons challenge comparison
with the finest made anywhere in the country."—Honte
Journal.
C. L. Stoles, editor of the Kenocha "Tribune and Tele
graph" says, "The piano -was received in good order, and
Is pronounced an excellent instrument by good judges,
the tone of it is particularly commended, as is indeed its
external workmanship and finish, compared with its cost."
Speaking of the Horace Waters' Pianos and Melodeons
at the Crystal Palace the "New York Disptach" says :
"A number of these pianos and pedal bass organ melode
ons, from their great power, and fullness and richness of
tone, attract the very general attention and commenda
tion of visitors. Waters' " New Scale" is recognized by
artists as not only a sensible but important improvement
in pianos."
The "New York Express" says: "The Horace Waters'
Pianos aro pronounced by musical amateurs as a decidedly
superior article in all the requisites, of this instrument,
and it is fast superseding those of other manufacturers."
The "New York Evening Post" says: The Horace
Waters' Pianos are excellent as well as cheap; but he has
those of other -makers, as well as second-hand ones, capi
tally adapted to limited means."
Says the " Knoxville (Tenn.) Standard :" "Mr. Waters
has long experzence in the business, and has gained a repro-
Cation unsurpassed for selling the best instruments in the
country."
The "Sunny South" reaches us with the fOldoWink%---
" This gentleman is one of the most extensive music-deal
ers in the Union. His pianos and melodeons have ob
tain.] ercat celebrity for their excellent tone and durable
quality."
Says the "Valley City Advocate:" "We have taken a
look at a piano Ivhich has just arrived from the celebrated
itablislnent of Horace Waters, and must say that for
tone and b , anty of finish, it surpasses any we ever saw
for the price:'
Horace Waters' Piano-Fortes are of full, rich, and even
tone, and powerful.—Xclo rbr7.: Musical Review
" They are fully equal to any of the kind I have seen in
the United States, and far superior to those of a similar
make I saw in England."—Geo. Was7/bourne Morgan.
"I take great pleasure in announcing them instruments
of a superior quality, both in tone and touch.".--August
Gockel.
We don't know that we ever saw better pianos—pianos
better made, of finer tone and of greater power—than we
suet with yesterday at the fair in the Crystal Palace. The
finest among them are those placed there by Horace Wa
ters, whose pianos are always popular."—Times and Mes
senger.
'The Horace Waters' Pianos now on exhibition at tho
Fair, bare attracted a surprising degree of attention ;
they are unrivalled by any other instrument, in perfect
quality of tone and power."—Cuarier.
'The Horace Waters' pianos are among the most cele
brated and improved makes of the day. For power, bril
liancy and richness of tone, elasticity of touch, and
beauty of finish, they . will not suffer in comparison with
those of any other manufacturer,"—Thomas Baker.
The "State Register" contains the following: "For
beauty of finish, sweetness and brilliancy of tone, they
undoubtedly surpass anything of the kind ever brought
before the public. They equal in tone the grand piano;
and being constructed of the best and most thoroughly
seasoned material, they are capable of resisting the action
of any climate."
Says the "Evening Mirror" : They (the ITOrace Waters'
Pianos) are very superior instruments and the maker
may confidently challenge comparison with any other
manufacturer in the country, as regards their outward
elegance, and quality of tone and power."
