THE GAZETTE. LEWISTOWN, PA. Thursday, October 21, 1858. Notices of New Advertisements. Lind has lately received from the city a splendid lot of goods, with which he can turn a very ordinary fellow into a gentoman. J. Clarke invites attention to hTs stock of Boots, Shoes, &c. E. C. Hamilton has also replenished his stock, and is always ready to sell or make up to order. Freiburg Academy. —The first, quarter of the present session of this institution, which, notwithstanding the hard times, was one of the most interesting and successful, closed on Friday the Bth inst. The Normal department was attended by a large number of teachers, who, in addition to the regular institution, enjoyed the advantage of an excellent course of lectures, delivered by Hon. 11. C. Hickok, State Superintendent of Common Schools; Prof. Barnett, of Perry county ; County Su perintendent Boyer, and Professors McFar land, Galbraith and Porter, the latter from Juniata county. The examination by the j County Superintendent, which took place on ■ Saturday, proved conclusively that these ad- j ■vantages were improved, and that many of i these teachers will be found among the best in the county. The second quarter commenced on Tuesday the 12th inst. For particulars see advertisement. Who are the Democrats—-the Of ficeholders or the People ? Buchanan's organ-grinders at Washing ton continue to read out of the party all who do not bow the knee to the plunderers and officeholders who have undertaken to dictate to the people what "democracy" is. The Star, a sort of satellite to the big guns, discourses as follows: The moral of these elections, which pro claim tiiat Douglasism in lowa, Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania, is but part and parcel of Republicanism wherein that seeks to punish the National Administration and the Democ racy of Congress for their unselfish and pat riotic protection of the Constitutional guar antees of Southern equality of rights under this Government—is the fact that they are "handwriting on the wall" proclaiming the folly of the honest politicians of the South who would longer countenance the Anti Southern machinations of Douglas, Forney, lla>-kin, Broderick ifc Co., because, forsooth, Douglas has long been, personally, a "devlish clever fellow." Those of the South who lon ger stand up for Douglas may content them selves soon to be regarded at home as being practically co workers with him in politics. The Union also doles forth its thunder against those who aided in rebuking the administration. It says —- With those Democrats who have leagued with the enemy and giren them the victory, we can have no faith or alliance. In looking over the field, Douglas and his Forneys may find cause for rejoicing and self-laudations. They may glory alike in their own shame and the defeat of the noble old party which they have betrayed and abandoned. It is their work, and they may claim from their new al lies full compensation for the service they have rendered. They and the Black Repub licans have been faithful co-workers—begin ning with Judge Douglas's attack on President Buchanan's administration at the commence ment of the last session of Congress, and end ing in their present joint and inglorious vic tory They have fought well and gloriously together. Let them together rejoice, and in •common prepare fur the final doom that awaits alike the original enemies and tiie recent de serters of the Democratic party. The self-important tools who utter these impotent threats against men who chose to rhink and vote for themselves instead of blindly following the Washington dictators, know hut little of those whom they thus denounce. Without them in 1850 Bu chanan would have been ingloriously de feated—without them no presidential can didate presented by the government leeches, even if dignified as a "democrat," can carry Pennsylvania—and without them the whole gang of plunderers will soon learn that the people, though slow to anger, will speak ' against tyrannical assumptions and unfaith ful public servants, in tones not to be mis understood, whether iu or out of the "white house." Buchanan Democracy and Pro tection. The Cincinnati Platform, which is now said to constitute Buchanan democracy, lias the following resolution, as can be seen by referring to a file of the Lewistown Dem ocrat of June 12, 1856: "Resolved, That there arc questions connec ted with the foreign policy of this country which are inferior to no domestic questions whatever. The time has come for the people of the United States to declare themselves in favor of free seas and PROGRESSIVE FREE TRADE throughout the world, and by sol emn manifestations, to place their moral in fluence at the side of their successful exam ple." This is the officeholders creed of democ racy, and is sufficient to show all real friends of a Protective Tariff- —all laboring men and mechanics who desire to steer clear of European wages, that from those who hold such doctrines they have "nothing to expect but unstable and hollow-hearted legislation. If the overwhelming expression of the peo ple at the late election should even induce them to alter some rates for political pur poses, we should soon again witness a Polk and Dallas swindle. What we need in this country is a FIXED RATE OF DUTIES on a home valuation, on such articles as we can or ought to manufacture ourselves, and not as at present suffer the foreign manu facturer to value his own goods and then pay low duties on that valuation. This would afford ample protection with out prohibiting the foreign article, would revive business, stop the immense drain of gold to Europe, and soon afford employ ment to thousands who are now idle. The present state of has been produced gradually since the repeal of the tariff of i 1842, for as men do not at once fail in bu siness, neither is the general prosperity of a country destroyed in a day or a year. THE LATE ELECTIONS. —At the late i election in South Carolina, for members of ! the next Congress, all the present mem bers have been re-elected except Speaker } Orr, who declined re-nomination. The Ohio election has resulted in a re publican majority of about 15,000 on the ! State ticket, and the election to Congress 1 of fifteen republicans and six democrats, a republican gain of three members. In Indiana, the election seems to have resulted in the choice of the opposition State ticket by from 1000 to 500 majority, and a republican majority in the State Leg islature. Three Lecompton democrats and eight opposition members of Congress are elected. In lowa, the election has resulted in the choice of Samuel R. Custer, republican, to Congress, by about 1000 majority. lie is one of the present members. LOCAL AFFAIRS. COUNTY* FAIR.— It is obvious that some better arrangement for holding our annual exhibitions is necessary to insure their suc cess and continuance; and as no time can be better for discussing the subject than the present, wc hope all wno feel interested in this laudable undertaking will devote some thought and attention to it. The want of a proper enclosure and suitable buildings for of fruits, vege tables, fancy articles, and manufactures generally, has been felt since the organiza tion of the society, many of whose active members have repeatedly urged the neces sary measures, but without effect. As the most central point, Lewistown or ite vicinity would be the most proper location for per manent fixtures, hut our hotel keepers and business men have manifested so little in- terest in securing past exhibitions, every little village in the county having outbid them in inducements, that we fear there is hut little hope of their embarking in it. And yet there is no doubt it would pay, and in a few years bring crowds to visit the fair. An investment of S2OOO or 62000, which would probably purchase four acres of ground, enclose it, and erect sheds, Ac. for stock, would enable the Agricultural Society to guarantee at lea-t 3 per cent, on that amount for its use, and as every circus, menagerie, fcc. that would visit here would prefer such a spot to all others, and the ground at the same time kept in grass, there is every reason to believe that it would pay even at a cost of §3OOO. At Veager town, Reedsviile, and other points, the ground could he procured at a much less rate. The subject is worthy of considera tion, and we hope soon to hear of an effort to accomplish it, either here or elsewhere, j tetTflen.
