Negro Equality The doctrine of negro equality, so strenu ously advocated by the abolitionists, is so re pugnant to the feelings and better judgment of all right thinking men, that many who have heretofore acted with the republican party, boldly proclaim that they will not lend themselves to any scheme seeking to engraft their principles upon our institutions. The Michigan City Enterprise, an able re publican paper, thus proclaims its indepen dence, and refuses further to follow the lead of such fanatics as Greely and Seward: "The people of Indiana are not yet pre pared to accept the negro as an equal—either at the ballot-box or elsewhere. And we know of none of our Western States where this negro equality principle can command the support of even a corporal's guard. There was a time when our own sympathies favor ed the granting of certain privileges to the blacks—but a more extended acquaintance with their habits and morals, has satisfied us of the correctness of our former opinion ; and it is a belief on which we have been re luctantly driven, that the centralization of any considerable body of blacks in any com munity •is a curse and a. blight upon the in dustrial, moral and religious welfare of the whites. The principle of welcoming blacks to Can ada has been fully and fairly tested ; and now after the lapse of many years, our Cana dian friends—through the press—her states men and private citizens, almost unanimously concur in the expression, that while the con dition of the net in many instances has been henefitted, their presence has deteriora ted the morals of the whites—has en-en tiered IaziTIOSS—Li minced pauperism, theft and intemptlrance to a frightful extent, and that, while not wishing to drive them back into slavers - , they (the people of Canada) decided ly favor smile plan whereby they can all be placed in a colony by themselves. For our own part, much as our sympathy may be excited for their unfortunate condi tion, we cannot think of ministering to the inferiority, the stupidity and laziness of this class of creation at the sacrifice of our man hood, or the interests of 25,000,000, of whites —neither will we follow Hitt lead of the Gree ly and Seward politicians in giving populari ty to this absurd doctrine, which they are so sedulously trying to engraft into the republi can platform." There' are we ha-t-e no doubt hundreds of old lino whigs in Pennsylvania. to whom these negro equality notions are as obnoxious as they are to the Michigan City Enterprise, and who will repudiate them and vote for Gen. PACKER, the white mans' candidate. Terrible Tragedy in Georgia The Baltimore Patriot has received from a .-entleman of that city, the account of a ter rible tragedy in Ware county, Georgia, on the 17th September. It appears that a man named Adams was married a short time since to a Miss Jenkins, who had previously been engaged to another man by the name of Harley. Harley, on the morning of the wedding clay, had threatened Miss Jenkins with revenge if she persisted in marrying his rival, but she laughed to scorn his threat. and was, as appointed, bound in wedlock to Adams. On the 16th September, Harley came to Adams' house while the latter was absent with his wife, and finding it only oc cupied by an old negro woman, knocked her down with an axe, fracturing her skull, and then proceeded. to demolish all the furniture and disfigure the premises, knocking down partitions and breaking the plaster off the walls. - Adams and his wife returned late at night, and their feelings on perceiving the work that had been wrought may better be imagined than described. Medical assistance was obtained for the old woman, and her few broken, wandering words, ending, it is said almost in a shriek of the name of Harley, indicated to Adams the probable perpetrator of the outrage. Accordingly the next morn ing he armed himself with a rifle and knife, and went in search of Harley. He had not far to go, for about 100 yards from the house, on the road which passed through a strip of woods, he met Harley, apparently proceed ing to complete his destruction. A farmer's boy, who happened to be a short distance be hind, was the sole witness of the dreadful scene that ensued, and which froze his blood with terror. A short but violent conversa tion commenced between the two, when Ad ams discharged his rifle, only wounding Har ley in the arm. Harley, a large, athletic man, then closed with him, and a desperate conflict followed. Adams at last received a fatal blow from his antagonist's knife, and Harley, though cut almost to pieces, raised the dead body, if possible more bloody than his own, with the knife still sticking upright in its breast, and carried it into the presence of Mrs. Adams. The boy followed mechan ically, to see the denouement, too frightened to summon assistance—too weak to give it himself. Mrs. Adams received the murder er with a dreadful shriek, and fell fainting upon the corpse. Harley, weak and exhaus ted, had still strength enough to draw the bloody knife, and cutting her features until not a lineament was recognizable, plunged it into his own heart and fell back, his hand still grasping the long hair of his victim.— The affrighted witness at last sufficiently re covered himself to run for aid; when it came, both men were dead, and Mrs. Adams insen sible, having almost bled to death. A great excitement prevailed. She was carefully re moved and attended, but cannot recover.— Adams had been decently interred; but when I left proposals were made for nailing Har ley's body to .a tree. Adams was universal ly respected, being the editor of the Ware County Sentinel, the only paper in that sec tion. m•=m•m•llmiy.w. 4 7.rm, Flour market very dull, ranging from $5 50@7 50.

DIED, In this borough, on Friday, October 2, of consumption, SAMUEL 11. SMITH', aged 22 years and 14 days. Death, the unwelcome messenger, has invaded the family circle and snatched from the bosom of a loving wife, an endeared husband and father. He has created iu that house hell a void which cannot be filled on earth. The sacred bonds which united the lamented deceased with his now disconsolate wilt, were rudely sundered by this Destroyer, and she now moeu•us the early and sudden separation front her dearest earthly friend. The deceased, a native of this borough, was, by occupa tion, a printer. Ife commenced the business in the office of the Huntingdon Journal, and continued to be engaged at the same ; at intervals, until a shut t time before his de cease, lle enjoyed to a great degree the respect, confidence and estee•vn of the members Of the pzofeetion with whom he had connection. The unusually large concourse of per sons which accompanied his remains to their resting-place, on l.i.t Sunday, testifies the regard entertained for him and his bereaved relatives by the people among whom he dwelt. The friends of the deceased, bereft, of their companion, reluctantly permitting his removal from their midst, join in one «nil of t‘in row at his departure. They will find con solation in the thought that his call from the busy scenes of this world was a royal summon from the Supreme ll tiler, to a higher and hotter sphere. l OST—in the borough of Huntingdon, on Friday.

It is made of the strongest and most durablo materials, and saturated with the best of Asphalt°. It is made up in Rolls, 25 yards long, 32 inches wide, and can be easily applied by any unpracticed person, with a few tacks. It is invaluable for Lt.Nrgo the Wills of WOODEN HOUSES, GRANARIES, BARNS, &c., as rats or other vermin and insects will not touch it. IT IS IMPERVIOUS TO 'WET, and being a NON-CONDUCTOR, counteracts the heat of SUMMER and the cold of WINTER, equalizing the temperature within every building where it is used.

O INVALIDS .—Dr. Hardman, Analytical Physician.—Physician for Diseases of the wigs, Throat and Heart—Formerly Physician to the CINCINNATI MARINE HOSPITAL, Also to Invalids Retreat, Author of "Letters to Invalids,' is COMING ! Sec following Card. OCTOBER APPOINTMENTS, HARDMAN, Physician for the disease of the Lungs, (formerly Physician to Cincin nati Marine nospitaL) will be in attendance at his rooms as follows : Huntingdon, "Jackson's Hotel," Saturday, October 10 Hollidaysburg, Altoona, Johnstown, Indiana, Greensburg,.... Lewistown, Harrisburg, .... Dr. Hardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis, Asthma, Larryngittis and all diseases of the throat and lungs, by Medical Inhalation, lately used in the Bromton Hospital, London. The great point in the treatment of all human maladies, is to 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 stomach. If the lungs are dis eased, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into the lungs. Medicines are 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 other diseases of tho lungs, have heretofore resisted all treatment has been because they have never been ap: preached in a direct manner by medicine. They were in tended to act upon the lungs, and yet wore applied to tho 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.—lu relation to tho following dis eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ex isting alone, I also invite consultation, I usually find them promptly curable. Prolapses 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. All diseases of the eye and ear. Neuralgia, Epilepsy, and all forms of nervous disease. S. D. HARDMAN, M. D IrS—No charge for consultation.

Having inspected a 'ago number of the Horace Waters' Pianos we cue speak of their merits, from personal knowl edge, as being of the very best quality."—Cleristain Nothing at the State Fair displayed greater excellence in any department than the Piano-Forte manufactured by Horace Waters, of this city.—Churchntan. 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 Matra meats are always popular. The following we take from the "Christian Advocate" (Memphis, Tenn.* "The Horace Waters, Pianos aro built of the best and most thoroughly seasoned material. Front all we caudearn 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."

Speaking of the Horace Waters' Pianos and Melodeons at the Crystal Palace the " Now 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" nays : "The Horace Waters' Pianos are 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 es well as cheap but he has those of other makers. es well as second-hand ones, capi tally adapted to limited means."

The finest among them are those placed there by Iloraco Wa ters, whose pianos are always popular."—Times and Mes senger. "The Horace Waters' Pianos now on exhibition at the Fair, have attracted a surprising degree of attention ; they are unrivalled by any other instrument, in perfect quality of tone and power."—Couricr.

The "State Register" contains the following,: "For beauty of finish, sweetness and brilliancy of tone, they undoubtedly surpass anything of, the kind ever bronght 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."
