NORTH BRA NCH CANAL—We are informed by one
of the Board of Canal Commissioners, that they
have just completed a thorough tour of inspection
along the North Branch Camel. They h ire passed
a resolution directing the water to be let in on the
iGth of attober. An extent of ninety. se miles of
new canal, reaching from Pittston, Luzerne county,
to Athens, in Bradford county, will then fat the first
'time be brought into use.
ft will promote vastly the business of that region,
givine ready access to the immense coal mines 0 1
the Wyoming Valley and ailtieent country. From
Athens to New York Sato line, 2 5 8 miles distant,
an extension Cana) is making to connect with the
New York Junction Canal leading direct to New
York city. This work is to be completed by the
first of April next.
Men engaged extensively in the coal and iron
business, in New York State, have already been
along the line, endeavoring to [nuke extensiee con
tracts for Buffalo and New York city. .One gentle
man for the former ciy, it is said",. visited IVilkes-

about fifty years pf age, a carpenter by trade ; and
among Ins own neighbors in Philadelphia county,
it will be difficult to find a man who will not tell
you he is distinguished for honesty and integrity,,
for industry and sobriety. He. was for two years a
member of the House Itepresentativesat Harrisburg
and three years in the Senate. And fast winter, at
Harrisburg, it was a common remark that no pub
lie man or legislator could point to his votes, and
show so " clean a record," so steadfast and thor
oughly Democratic a course of conduct. No man
was more universally respected at Harrisburg, and
To one was more attentive to his dillies. He could
speak well, when his duty required it, but he seeks
no display. His , plain and simple manneriv his
thorough business habits, his good judgment and
his stead% unwavering Democracy were noticed
and admired by all. He needs.no endorsement to
insure his election'. But we like to have our friends
know the character of the man they vote for; and
in this instance there is no mistake about the merit

The Proxpect.
We feel safe in assuring, our Democratic friends,
that the prospect uf securing the election of our en
tire ticket is in all respects as favorable as wecoultl
wish. We hear of no serious complaints or isaflec
lion ; all concede that the ticket is a good one, and
every democrat will go forth to duty with a. firm
determination to battle against the enemies of his
principles, efficiently and. successfully—and the
second Tuesday of October E.ball bear testimony to
the ftrure of i's signal and triumphant success.—
Such we believe, from the information we have
from all parts of the County, is the sentinient which
prevades the party, and animates the bosom of ev
ery lover of the Democratic cause—every friend of
equal rights. This is right. No personl hostilities
—no personal preference for the nomination of a
friend, should testrain a single democrat Itcm en
tering warmly, fearlessly, and actively into the
support of the entire ticket when firmed.
We have said . we believe that harmony and kilt]
feelings prevail, and that ‘i e are marching forward
tl a ceilain and honorable victory at the polls
Yet we would urge upon our fellow democrats, the
propriety, and absolu'e itccess'.iy of unceasing vig,i
lance Do not let the certainty of success full you
into apathy or inactivity. It has been said thht
" Eternal Vigilance" is the price of liberty. Let
this be the motto of every soldier in the democratic
ranks Let him remember that the listlessness of
a single individual, may lose more than one vote,
and should it prevail generally, might lose the elec
tion. General Apathy is a bad officer, and never
led his soldiers to Victory. He is sore to be beaten
wherever he has commanded, and no Democrat will
be found in his ranks.
Again, let not the fact, that we carried every
thing in this county last fall induce a single man
to stay at home under the belie! that we have votes
enough without hie. That is net the way to make
victory certain. We have a wiley, managing foe
it contend with. Their leaders are already endeay.
oring to throw sand into oureyes, by saying on the
corners of the streets and other public places—that
they don't expect to to elect their men—they know
we have strength, and ofronrse they must be bea
ten. 'Ms is all gammon. Therticipe, by holding
out false lights, as the same parly•did during the
last war, to deceive our democratic friends. They
cry peace, peace, when there is no peace. Be
ware or their devices, they mean by their tricks to
quiet your'fliers and operate upon your credulity.—
They are now secretly pushing every exertion on
their part to the wiriest, and could they
suteeed 'in making our friends believe that their
operaticina are merely to keep up an organization,
without any expectation Of success—we might,
when too late, discover at our cost, their real design.
Be assorted now, that they mean to defeat us, and
elect their own men ! and being conscious of their
weakness, in open battle, they are resorting to such
scheme• to accomplish covertly and untlerhanffly
what they cannot do in fair and honorable conflict.
Democrats ! be not deceived—but enter at once,
boldly and manfully upon the work before you.—
Leave nothing undone that can be done honorably
to sedum the election of your condidates. Many a
battle has been los' for want of a single vote, and
every democrat should exert himself for the coming
contest aa if the reardi depended on his vote alone
Let him do this, and at the same time guard against
the wiles, and crafty devices of the enemy to 101 l
them tuba careless indifterenee,or divert oar alien
tiotrfrom the point of attack, and we will certainly
come off victorious as the sun shall rise on the
second Tuesday of October.

The Eleetion.
Between this and the day of electron, every of
fort which can be put forth in the despairing strug
gles of two parties, will be brought in requisition to
defeat the democracy of Btatitord. Against us all
their batteries are directed, and aver our prostration
they hope to raise the shout of victory.
The democracy of Bradford have heretofore no
bly sustained themselves against the combinations
of their enemies; and have proved themselves so
perior to the artful and deceptive means ever used
to seduce them from their attachment io democrat
ic principles. It remains for ifs to record another
instance of their firmness•and•integrity: it is:tri their
power to carry the whole Mice!, triumphantly, arid
forever put at rest the attempts of office seekers to
divide and distract the democracy.
It is seldom that a political canvass passes oil so
quietly thus Jar, as has the one r.ow in progre,B.
We are apprehensive that our opponents a ill seek
'to take advantage of this apathy, and while we ate
napping, we may Ire shorn of our stterigth Our
friends must wake up, put forth thiir energies and
rally to the polls. Not only go themselves, but see
that evety democrat is there. Never wa. it more
necessary that our ticket should be sustained, titan
this tall. If we are defeated it will be in conse
quence of democrats staying away from the polls.
We again urge the necessity of action ! vigilant
action ! The 11 . 11 e lime Left if properly improved
will ensure for us a glorious triumph!

but in all cases where the payment of a tax is ne

011ITCARY
Died, at her residence in Wysox. nn :Sunday : 4 ekt. 4
at half past 2 o'clock, Miss I:Liz/Aura COULD Arca
aged 23 years and 4 months.
The deceased was attacked suddenly on 2 Saturday
evening, at half past lir o'clock, while attending choir
Meeting, with a severe pain in the left side, which
grew'rapidly worse, causing her to faint once or
twice , before she reached home. Her sufferings in
creased until 2 P. N. of the Lev day, when she
expired in a convulsion.- Thu*. in the short space
of 18• hours, this blooming, vigorous youth was
stricken down.
The deceased was a member of the Episcopal
Church and loved and served her God. Her exit
from earth was but her entrance into Heaven. Bho
has merely exchanged the ephemeral joys and the
unsatisfying pleasures of this world for these ilea•
venlk "Earth's stormy night is o'er." and Heaven's
perpetual day begun. Inexorable death has execo•
ted his commission.
She has left us, the amiable, the kind and the be
loved, Her place in our Choir is void,'for. she hath
joined the Heavenly Choir. We mourn the loss of
onr beloved friend, but let us remember that our loss
is her gain. She has suffered her last pang,she has
abed her last tear. Let us emulate her virtue?. Let
us subdue onr understandings to truth; our habits
to rectitude, and then onr hearts shall he subdued
li tho hers to barifirle -n.
