Since the first of July last we have found it exceedingly difficult to raise suf ficient money to meet the pressing necessi ties of our business, in fact, at times, we have scarcely known whither to turn to raise money enough to pay our employees, our paper bills, and other necessary expenses, that can only be met by cash payments. This has been a source of great annoyance to us and inteffered very much with our duties as an editor. It is not calculated to brighten a man's ideas to have to throw down his pen every few hours and run out to gather up sufficient money to purchase one of his hands a sack of flour or some equally necessary article. Espe cially is this the case when he knows that thousands of dollars are due him on sub scriptions, which, if paid as they should be, would place him in a comparative po sition of independence. It is an absolute fact that out of the 1600 names on our list not 400 of that number have paid up to the first of January next. Have we not good and sufficient reason to scold ? There are at least 400 who have not paid up for two years and 100 who have not paid us a farthing since our connection with the JOURNAL. This is a little rough. We have no desire to dun our subscribers, but what are we to do ? Must we invest our money, year iq and year out, and sub mit to all manner of inconveniences to oblige men who take no more interest in their county paper than this We hope all that are indebted to us will see tho, necessity of responding at once.— We want money badly. Send it by mail, at our risk, if mailed in presence of the postmaster. Come, don't keep us waiting longer for what is due us. Pay up ! ve.. Goss and Woods are temperance men! They want to defeat Burchinell with McAteer. Too thin ! Vidir The Temperance men of this coun ty, are not blind enough to vote for Dunn to elect an Anti-Local Option man. Star Examine the Registry. List and see that every Republican in your district has been assessed. Do so without further de lay. ea— The out and out Leaguers will vote for McAteer, and those who can't be in duced to do this will cast half a vote for him by voting for Dunn. us.. The League men think they know John G. Stewart too well. They can't vote for him. He won't stuff the Jury Box for them ; that's the troubtr.' Da_ Dunn is in favor of licensed houses, keeps whiskey in his cellar by the keg, and yet he asks temperance men to sup port him ! This is impudence unparal. lelled. Dm. Poor Dnnn really believes that Gun and Woods are going to vote for him ! Boos he remember Hon. A. A. Barker who ran only a year ago? They will go for Dunn and vote for McAteer ! Star The "Potato Bug Ticket" will not get a single vote in a half dozen districts of the county, while in a number of others it will only get from one to eight. The from threo to eight in a district will be the extent of its support,. um.. Hereafter it will cost 4316,000 per year to run the Poor House, if the Regu lar Republican candidate should be defeat ed. The Leaguers and Democrats are working together in the matter. Logan will be retained and the funds for running the League will have to be furnished from that source. tel_ The League draws its funds for running the campaign from the Democrats and the Poor House. Both are rather ques tionable sources, but if the Democrats will be accommodating it is a matter of their own; however, it is quite dfferent with the tax-payers; they don't feel like having their taxes consumed in this way. Car In the dark and trying hours of the rebellion a number of patriotic and unselfish Democrats of Huntingdon county, broke over party ties and aided and assist ed the government in its efforts to over throw armed treason, which act fortunately cast their lot with the Republican party. Now these men are denounced as renegade Democrats by those who have robbed the sunfortitnates of that rebellion of thousands. THE MAKE-UP OF THE BOLTERS' BOGUS CONVENTION. EDITOR To enable our readers to comprehend the make-up of the Bolters' Bogus Con vention, we make the following analysis: Alexandria—One delegate gathered up on the day of Convention. Brady—Five votes; Jacob Musser set ting in his wagon presiding over the meet ing. Broad Top City—One of the delegates an out-and-out McAteer man. Carbon—An Election. Cass township and Cassville—No report. Clay—Two votes besides those of the delegates. Coaluiont—Six votes for Levi Evans, and none for Heaton. Heaton did not participate. Cromwell—No electiou Dublin—No election. Franklin—No election ; but represented by H. S. Laird by motion in Convention. Henderson—Six votes. Hopewell—No election. Huntingdon, Ist Ward—No election. 2d Ward—No election. 44 3d Ward—No election. 4th Ward—No election. Jackson—No election Juniata—Three tenants of Wm. H. Woods, in this district, elected two of their number delegates—Jacob K. Peterson be ing the odd man—at some barn, aided by the presence of W. H. Woods. Lincoln—No report. Mapleton—No election. Morris—No election ; oo representation. Mt. Union borough—Seven votes. Mt. Union district—No election. Oneida—No report. Orbisonia—No election. Penn—Nine votes. Petersburg—No election nor represen tation. Porter—No report. Shade Gap—No election. Shirley township—No election. Shirleysburg—Ten votes; one Demo crat and John Logan, Poor House man, who belong to the township, _ _ Springfield—No election; but Ephraim Baker, of Orbisonia, was made a delegate by the Convention. Tell—No election; no representation. Tod—No report. Three Springs—No election. Union—From six to eight votes. Walker—No election. Warriorsmark township and borough held a joint meeting, and four or five votes were cast. West (Upper)—No election. There is no such man as C. Hamer in the township, and John A. Green. the only delegate present, was elected by the Convention. West (Lower)—No eleotion ; no repre sentation. Be' There is but one sore spot in the Republican organisation throughout the State, and that is in Huntingdon county, where a very small minority of men, all of whom want to be leaders and candidates, are in an antagonism with the regulars. It is a combination incapable of doing more harm than create topics of scandal for our opponents to roll under their tongues, and when the day of the election comes, the leaders of this famous plot will be alone in their glory. The groat mass of the Re publican party all over the State want peace and victory.—State Journal. Some officious fellow has turned the scent of the Globe after Dr. McCarthy, to whom it attributes all manner of things, and threatens to daub his picture. Well, well, lest we might have a two column ar ticle of whining' and boohooings in that paper, we here say that Doctor McCarthy is not the man, and that he has not writ ten Dutch, English or dumb letters for this paper, soiling the burnished linen of its immaculate editor. Try again, please SW The Leaguers try very hard to make a point against a few active Repub licans because they were once Democrats. If it had not been for men of this kind, who came to the reacue of the government in its greatest peril, these Leaguers would not now have a Republican party to out rage. All honor to the men who shook off party ties to save their country from ruin. se,.. If Capt. Burchinell bad only a countenance like the editor of the Globe no one would suspect him of being addicted to the vice of intemperance, however much they might suspect him of being a candi date for the State's prison.

Temperance men, why are Guss and Woods trying to engineer the Temper ance craft ?

Editor Jour sal :—My attention has been oalled to the fact that my name line ap peared in the columns of the Huntingdon Globe, under date of 9th inst., as a dele gate from the Second Ward of Hunting don to the Bolters' Convention of that date. I have no knowledge of having been elected to fill the position, and feel extremely anxious to know by what au thority my name is thus used. I have never been identified with any faction in the Republican party, but claim to be a consistent and straightforward Republican, and intend, if I live to vote on the second Tuesday of October, to vote the Republi can ticket nominated by the 12th of Au gust Convention. I therefore most hearti ly repudiate any affiliation with the 9th of September affair known as the "Bolters' Convention," and would most earnestly recommend all good and true Republicans to do likewise. Yours, respectfully, R. 0. MACDONALD. Still .hllotlior Rualiatioll ! THE BOTTOM IS FALLING OUT! HUNTINGDON, Sept. 20, 1873 Editor Journal :—My name has appear ed in the columns of the Globe of the 9th inst., as a delegate to a meeting purporting to be a Republican County Convention, but in reality a convention of self-consti tuted delegates without the voice of the people whom they pretended to represent. I was not at said meeting, and took no part in the affair, as I am not in sympathy with the movement, but expect to support the regular Republican ticket nominated by the Republican County Convention of August 12th, 1873. Respectfully, C. A. ESTES. AND STILL THEY COME! The Old Thing Gone to Staves ! GUSS, WOODS & CO , 800 HOO ! BIRMINGHAM, Sept. 22, 1573. Editor Journal see my name men tioned in the Globe as a delegate to the Secession Convention held on the 9th inst. I wish to make the statement through your columns that I knew nothing of a delegate election in this old Republican borough for a convention on the Guss call, nor did I know that I. was a delegate to the "Potato Bug" gathering. lam now, as I always have been, a straightout Re publican. I condemn the movements of the Guss convention, and will go the full ticket nominated August 12th. Yours, &c., PETER KNODE. SW' Since our last issue we have re ceived intelligence from all parts of the county, and from every quarter we are as sured that the Potato Bug ticket will not receive any greater support than that giv en to the Independent ticket last Fall.— Work, friends, and the regular Republi. can ticket will be elected by at least 500 majority. If our friends do their duty, there is not a particle of doubt the whole ticket will be triumphantly elected by a greatly increased majority over last Fall. re_ State Supreme Courts arc reaffirm ing the decision that when a railroad sells a ticket for passage to a certain point it is with the understanding that the holder shall be furnished with a seat. When failure to do this is made, the holder of the ticket can legally claim damages. In all cases the company is bound by the plain terms of a contract made in the sale of a ticket to furnish the holder with a seat. um.. The nomination of John Irwin, jr., of Centro county, as the Republican can didate for Senator, is most favorably re ceived by all clarses. His selection from among the worthy candidates before the conferees is in itself a tribute to his worth, and may destroy sonic Democratic pros pects which had glittered in the eyes of sundry politicians of that school.--Lewis* town Gazette. m. We have a letter from Franklin township which says that Laird, who rep resented himself and nobody else in the Potato Bug Convention, is the only man in the township who will vote the ticket. Thus we go. Our people begin to ace the thinness of this thing, and the Democrats are beginning to regret that they paid their money to get it up to so little purpose. ta,, The Republicans of Huntingdon county are in earnest; they do not intend to leave a vestige of the miserable faction , which has cursed the county for years, at the coming election. From all parts of the county we hear of such an uprising of the indignant masses that the wretched tail of the League, which is still wriggling, will be ground to powder. am. It is extremely doubtful whether Guss and Woods can secure a sufficient number of votes for the "Potato Bug" con cern to materially effect the regular ticket. Men who claim to be honest and true Be, publicans would just as soon touch a leper as meddle with it. dear The Guerrillas have a very striped tiaketr—it reminds one of the potato bugs —in fact the "Potato 13ug Ticket" would be a good name for it. After gorging themselves full the frosts of October are about to slay them. BErjohn Logan, he of Poor House no toriety, is sloshing around like a bull in a china shop, working hard for the defeat of James 11. Lee, the Republican candidate for Poor Director. Elect Lee, and John's days will be few. WY - The late Bolters' Convention con tained about fifteen soreheads and an equal number of old Leaguers, and the balance was made up of shysters, hangers-on, polit ical fossils and bummers. THE TEMPERANCE MEN AND THE DEMOCRACY. The Democratic Convention of Dauphin County passed strong resolutions in favor of the repeal of the Local Option Law, and placed the party fairly on a Whiskey Platform. The last Temperance Vinci ka tor comments as follows upon these resolu tions, viz: "Su reads the resolutions of the Demo cracy of Dauphin Coouty, passed as the Patriot tells us, by A UNANIMOUS VOTE. In that representative assemblage not one man was to bo found who would protest against the passage of such resolutions, threatening to take from us the only chance we now have of putting down the traffic in strong drink by the voice of a mojority of the people. It is not my intention to show, as could be well done, that the resolutions are found ed upon false assumptions, but simply to call the attention of my Temperance breth ren, WHO ARE "THIRD PARTY MEN" to the difference between the Republican and Democratic parties on this great question. In the one case we have two men nomina ted for the Legislature who took an active part in the anti-liquor movement. They advocated it as a religious and moral duty, believing they would thereby advance the best interests of their fellow citizens and help to reduce taxes, pauperism, and crime. In this they did their duty. The - question was not a party one; men of all shades of political opinion recognized the necessity for the prohibition of the sale of intoxi- ' eating drinks, and the fact that they had so acted, was sufficient to obtain for them the support of a largo majority of the del egates in that convention. "But these short-sighted men have de termined to bring the question into par tisan politics in the hope that they mays draw off from the Republican party the votes of those that believe with them on this issue, and to secure a share of the spoils that they have these many years longed for. “Is the duty of every honest Temperancel man not now made apparent? WILL IT NOT BE A CRIME AND A BLUN DER TO WITHDRAW OUR SUP PORT FROM THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AT THIS TIME, BY ANY AT TEMPT TO FORM A THIRD OR PRO_ HIBITORY PARTY? I have it from the best of authority that the liquor men who controlled the late Democratic con vention intend putting forth herculean efforts to make it successful. They will expand their strength on the candidates for the Legislature; will trade off votes against the other officers at any odds if they may win on this point; AND IF TEMPER ANCE MEN WITHHOLD THEIR FULL AND EARNEST SUPPORT FROM THE REPUB• LICAN PARTY NOW, THEY WILL BE DOING THEIR CAUSE AN INJURY ALMOST BEYOND REPAIR. Whatever doubts any of us may have had on this matter before, the action of the Dauphin Democratic Convention must have dissolved them, and made our duty plain." ta r . A friend writes us from Alexan dria as follows : "I see, by this week's paper, that the name of John Holsinger appears as a delegate to the Potato Bug Convention. Let use say for Mr. Holsing er that he was not there as a delegate. I will tell you how his name came to be used. The town of Alexandria was hunted over for a man to act with the famous letter writer. Once Laird thought he would have to take the old Squire, but he gave that up, and concluded that he might catch some unfortunate in the town of Hunting don. As he was posting about the town, seeking whom he might devour, he fell upon Mr. Holsinger, who had gone to Huntingdon on business, and froze fast to him. He prevailed upon Mr. Holsinger to allow him to use his name, and in an evil moment, he consented. Ho is a Re publican but no politician, and will not vote for Dunn and his striped companions when the election comes around !" tte_ A correspondent from Hubble-- vine wants Barnum to procure Dunn's "good looking convention." He thinks it would be a rare collection of "beasts " This is rough On Barnum, but it might be a good thing for the convention. By way of explanation : When Dunn looked around over the body which nominated him he had intended saying "this intelli gent convention," but thought that would be putting it a little strong, so he modified it by saying "this good-looking conven tion." Here is where the laugh comes in. M' Springfield, the most regular and staunch Republican township in the coun ty, feels outraged at being paraded to the world as having Lep represented by Eph. Baker, a citizen of Orbisonia, in the late Bolters' Convention. She feels the dis grace keenly. She had refused to partici pate, and then to have a citizen of anoth er district voted in to represent her, is insufferable. She will repel the insult at the polls. ley- The card of Mr. It. 0. Macdonald, of the secend Ward, speaks for itself. He repudiates the striped affair. The people can now see how the Bolter's Convention was gotten up. The bottom is falling out of the affair. A few more kicks and the old barrel will fall to staves. ets,. Mr. Macdonald, who is a thorough going Republican, says: "I, therefore, MOST HEARTILY REPUDIATE ANY AFFILIATION WM! THE 911 or SEPTEMBER AFFAIR KNOWN AS THE BOLTERS' CONVENTION, AND WOULD MOST EARNESTLY RECOM MEND ALL GOOD AND TRUE REPUBLICANS TO DO LIKEWISE!" That's the • kind of talk ! All good men will stand by the party. gEr The fourth resolution of the Pota: to Bug Convention will certainly disqual ify quite a number of that crowd from holding office. ta.. Dunn claims to be opposed to the Penna. It. It. Co., and yet he is lending himself to secure the election of M'Ateer, who is owned by this monopoly. "Con sistency, thou art a jewel." as. Examine the Registry List and see that every Republican in your district has been assessed. Do so without further de lay. MR. MACKEY. The election of this gentleman to the inportant office of Treasurer of the State, may be taken for granted. He has borne himself ably, and the arrows of his oppo nents fall harmless at his feet Of course, the Democrats attack ! Why not? They are out, and would get in. We excuse their clamor. It cannot be denied, we think—that is to say, the fair-minded will hardly deny that the Republicans have managed affairs ably. Under Democratic management the State finances showed no reduction of the State debt, while under Republican management the debt has been reduced from $41,000,000 to $26,081,516.60 . Of this reduction 8574,745.94 was made during August 1873. Under such circumstances it-is ludicrous to find the Democrats endeavoring to prove some imaginary deficit in the accounts, and complaining of the large balance always kept on hand as a safety guard. The Republicans have managed the State finances with shrewdness and skill, and deserve credit for it. The debt of the Commonwealth, on which we have to pay interest, is only $17,000,000, as the rest is offset by a debt due the Commonwealth by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, which pays the interest regularly, and extinguishes a portion of the principal annually. All this has been accomplished without any increase of taxation. Indeed the tax on real estate has been abolished, and sonic miner taxes also. The surplus in the Treasury increases annually in consequence of the steady re duction in the load of interest to be paid. Hence if we wish to increase this surplus available for public objects, we have only to go on reducing the principal of the debt. Ever since the war, the debt has regu larly and largely diminished, and to Mr. Maekey must much of the credit be giv en.—All Day (Jity iton, Sept 16, 1873. iSZr The Lewistown Gazette twits us in regard to our poverty, and thinks we have "no interest in this district except to filch a political living out of it." If this is our object we have a very strange way of doing it. We came here, from an adjoining die- trict, bought the Republican, and consoli dated it with the Journal and American, and three years hard work ought to be able to demonstrate whether we did it in good faith or not. Almost every dollar that we have realized out of it since, we have put into the office until we have an office second to none outside of the large cities. This ought to give us some inter est, certainly. Beyond this we have been a consistent Whig and Republican for twenty years—never was anything else— and we have edited a partisan paper, off and on, since we were eighteen years of age, and in that time we have helped to elect hundreds of men to office who have forgotten our services almost immediately, and yet have never filled an office of any kind which has paid a salary of forty dollars per annum. We have helped to enrich hundreds and remained poor our self. We have worked for principles, and the man who intimates ought else—lies. Re_ At long last we have a tardy ad mission from the editor of the Lewistown Gazette that he "cannot understand the factional fights" in this county. Then he should have held his peace. We take pleasure in informing him now that there has been no 'factional fights" here—only an effort by the true Repnblicans to shake off a secret oath-bound League which had fastened itself upon the party many years ago. This League elected the first Re publican Jury Commissioner, and filled the jury-box with its sworn adherents. In 1869 it nominated a ticket out of Mr. Woods' office over maimed soldiers and the best men in the county, and the true mem bers of the party became exasperated at such conduct and struck its ticket down. Sines then the aforesaid League has been constantly striking those who helped to strike it down in 1869. Now it has a separate and distinct organization. 'We have endeavored to break up this League, and we have felt all the time that the Ga zette was disparaging our efforts. itiir It is said that the Democrats agreed to pay Guss and Woods $l,OOO if they would call a Bolters' Convention and nominate a ticket. The sudden manner in which the Convention was called gives credit to the statement. Every Republi can vote for the Bolters' ticket counts ono for the Democrats. We hope that the money will be fairly shared out between all those who vote the Bolters' ticket.— Each is entitled to his share. cs. A, W, Wright, the Bolters' candi date for Jury Commissioner, who is run ning for the mere fun of the thing, unless 'Squire Brooks, the Democratic candidate, can be induced is decline, was one of the principal parties in saddling the heavy bounty debt upon Union township, which is weighing her down as if a mill stone were hung about her neck. There was a handsome League swindle in that bounty matter. Dir If the Bolters' Convention cost the Democratic party $l,OOO, as alleged, who received the money ? We suppose that each of the delegates to the Convention marched up and got his share. Who acted as paymaster ? If this was not done there must be foul play somewhere. Those who received the money have pocketed it, and do not intend to share evenly. The Leaguers say they will elect the Democratic ticket, and that it is fully understood that Logan is to be retained as Steward if Horning is elected. Tax-pay ers, Republicans and Democrats, do you want the Poor House to cost $16,000 per year ? If you do not, vote, and see that your neighbors vote, for James H. Lee. WY' "Don't vote for Montgomery ; he is a big, overgrown fellow; vote for Green, who is a poor, decrepit creature, only fit to be a treasurer." Vide Globe. The far mers and tax-payers generally vote for those whom they can trust. They know “Tommy" Montgomery. gar We c a ll attention to the call for the meeting of the Republican County Committee in another column. ~ Wherever the Leaguers have had control the People are groaning beneath a terrible load of taxes. They are now en deavoring to get the affairs of the county in their hands by manipulating the Demo crats. If they should succeed the tax-pay ers will learn what it is to trust these fol lows, who make copies of their duplicates and add on large percentage and collect it, as has been the custom not only in Porter but other portions of the county. Jar Republicans, do not lend your aid to Guss, Woods & Co. to elect M'Ateer. by voting for Dunn, and thereby secure them the money promised in case of•his success. A thousand dollars has already been paid for putting a ticket in the field, and another thousand is to be paid in the event of defeating the Republican ticket. Will you help these political tricksters to put money in their pockets? rcir The Globe mendaciously asserts, from week to week, that Capt. Burchinell is a renegade Democrat. CAPT. BUR CHINELL HAS NEVER BEEN A DEMOCRAT ! He went into the army before be was of age, and there he became thoroughly identified with Republicanism, and he has acted earnestly and consistent ly with the party ever since. ima., Dunn is only used to catch votes that would otherwise go for Capt. Burchi nell. He is not intended to take any from McAteer. That would be out of the pro gramme. If a voter won't go for Harry, then the next best thing is to get him to go for Dunn. The game is fully under stocd. McAteer and Dunn are piping through the same quill. De_ At least forty important banking houses have suspended in Philadelphia and New York within ten days. Many of them the oldest and most substantial houses. The immediate cause has been carrying too much wild cat railroad stock and securities. • The crisis will effect the country but little. The country is prosper ous and such speculations cannot effect it. OM. We have received a number of letters which speak of "William Dann" as being the Potato Bug candidate for the Legislature. Why is this thus, pray? It is not "Billy" but "Dave" that is running for the Legislature. If any person is going to vote the Potato Bug ticket because they think "Billy" is heading it they should be undeceived sm. Union township, which is now weighed down with a bOunty tax that is almost unbearable, has been under the control of the League for the last decade. Wherever the League bas had control of the affairs of a district the tax-payers have been robbed without mercy. Look at Porter for an illustration I The Motator asserts very confident ly that Gilbert Horning will be elected Poor Director. Will it be kind enough to tell us whether John Logan ; honest, John, you know; will be retained if he is elect ed ? People want to know, you know.— Elect Mr. Lee and John's days are num bered. per„ Tho Leaguers- had a singular though effective way of raising the wind for campaign purposes. They used to make copies of their duplicates and add a handsome per capita additional and collect it. They would settle by the original du plicate and collect by their copy. It was a nice way to raise the wind but it was a little rough on the farmers. gm. The editor of the Globe smiles a smile of satisfaction when he thinks of how easily they have been able to sell their fol lowers to the Democrats. We are surpris ed that some of the veterans of the League will allow themselves to be sold like cattle without sharing the spoils. It is rather a rough financial operation. .. Billy Dunn wishes us to inform our readers that he is no way related to Davy Dunn, the tool of the man who does up the fish-market slang of Speer & Co.'s Globe. Billy is still engaged in the bone trade, and says that he is anxious that his friends should know that he is not Ample enough to be used by such knaves as Guss and Woods. When Jay Cooke & Co., and others suspended, a few days ago, some of our en. thusiastic Demperats predicted that it it would ruia the Republican party. Not so fast. The Republican party does not depend upon a banking concern for an ex istence, by a jug full. par. In addition to the card of Mr. It. 0. Macdonald repudiating the Bogus Con vention, we take pleasure in presenting thoso of Messrs. Estes anti Knode. These gentlemen stand by the good old Repub lican faith, and ignore shams set up to elect the Democratic ticket. BEd' The editor of the Globe charges Capt. Burchinell with being intemperate, and claims that his tool Dunn is strictly temperate. The difference is that Dunn buys in his whi.key by the keg, while Cap tain Burchinell don't deal in "red-eye" at all. see The Democrats were boasting, on the street corners, on Monday morning, "the Globe was going to give the JOURNAL thunder this week." This shows in whose interest that sheet is working. Well, let 'er flicker ! Its the recoil that hurts. ThEgi,. It is intimated, in the Globe, that Joseph M. Wilson, Esq., of Cassville re fuses to serve on the Regular County Com mittee. We are authorized to say that this is a positive falseh•od. Mr. Wilson will work and vote for the whole Regu lar ticket. Mark that now ! n Back Pay is a good thing and Harry J. McAteer knows it. He put himself on a Back Pay Platform. Tax- Payers, do you want Harry to vote himself an extra thousand or two ? If you do, elect him to the next Legislature, if not, elect Capt. Burchinoll ! t1e1!... Our Democratic friends must not forget that Harry J. McAteer was in the Democratic Convention and voted for the Back Pay Resolution. Harry is in favor of Back Pay. He will have a chance to get it if he goes to the Legislature. The Constitutional Convention as sembled again in Philadelphia, on the 16th, inst. Iron. John IL Walker, of Erie, was elected President, to fill the va cancy occasioned by the death of Hon. Wm. M.

A roof may be covered with emery cheap shingle, and by the application of this elate be made to last from 25 to 30 years. Old pooh can be patched and coated and made to look much better and last longer than new shinglm without tbeSlate, for ONE-TIIIRD the COST of RE-SHINGLING. The cost of Slating new Shingles is only about the coat of simply laying them, and the Slate is FIRE-PROOF against sparks and live cattle falling upon it, as may be easily tented by any one, and as appears from the fact that Insurance Companies make the same Tariff that they do for tinted Reef.. Poe tin and iron it has no equal, as it expands by beat and contracts by cold, and never crack. or scales. For Cemetery fences it is particu larly adapted, as it will not corrode in the most exposed places. Roofs covered with Tar Sheathing Felt can he made water tight ate small expense. The Slate or Paint to HICTILEM ELY citgAr two gallons wilt cover a hun dred square feet of Shingle roof, or over four hundred of Tin or Iron.
