Receipt for making Black wall.
Ma. Eorroa.—Permit me, before giving the re d

the4rst place, the scratch coat mete with
coarse send, is spread upon the jath,as usual, and
the brown coat follows, being left a little rough un
der the float' When the brown coat is pet femly
dry, the black coat is kid on. This is prepared of
!pi,3 . ll,y.'Ank wound elaster, and beach

The advantages of this kind of black board over

ADDITIONAL SUGGESTIONP
In building a new school house,,lt would be well
to have a. belt of this sot lace pass- entirely round
the school room, at a proper height. In a common
school room, where small children ate to use it, its
lower edge should be about Iwo feet from the floor,
extending thence upwards from 3to 3 1-2 ft. At
the lower edgethere should be a chalk trough',
extending the whole length, made by nailing a Win
strip ol board to the plank that bounds the black
board, leaving the trough three inches in width,
and two inches in depth. in which to place the
chalk, brushes, points-c, &c ; this would alsocatch
the dust a the chalk from the board, The upper
edge should be bound by a simple moulding.
THS Bauxites.—The best thing for removing the
chalk horn the board, is a brush, made of the size
of a shoe brush, with a wooden handle on the back
side, the face being covered with a sheep skin,
with the wool on. This removes the chalk at
single sweep, without wearing the surface, and
without dirtying the hands of the operator. This is
great improvement over a dusty cloth or sponge.
(*—ln all cases let the board be kept.\lry ; never
allow a pupil to wet the wiper when removing the
chalk.
RENOVATION —By long use, especially it the
surface is ever cleaned with a wr. - r wiper, this kind
of black board becomes too smooth and glossy
upon the surface; the chalk passes over withoot
taking, effect, and the light is reflected. A very
simple wash, applied with a while-wash brush,
will immediately restore it ; this wash is'made by
dissolving one part of glue to two parts of alum, in
water y so as to make a very thin solution, It is
well to have this wash:slightly colored with3amp
black.
Care must be taken that this wash do not have
too much body.
The above directions, if carefully observed, it i s
believed, will be bond sufficient to enable any
school district to procure, at a cheap rate, an ale.
quate amount of black board, ready for use at all
times.
The Foreign News.
The foreign papers have full detail's of the em
barking of the BI ittiAh and Ft ench troctips for the in•
tended attack on Sebastopol. A correspondent of
the London times says:
" The plan ol operations for taking Sebastopol is
talked of pretty openly, but vs being so open leads
one to suspect the authenticity. Such as report giv
es it I will repeat. About six miles to the north ol
Sebastopol, is a plain reaching from the beach lir
inland ; the approach from seaward is clear, and
the sea shore can be made bold with, till withi n
500 yards. It is proposed to land the troops here
under cover of Oil guns of non-of-war, stationed
alternately with the transports; the greater pan of
the fleet is to prevent the Russian ships leaving the
harbor. Well, on the northern hill overlooking
the entrance is a fort, strongly defended; this is to
taken, and is, in fact, the great thing to be done.-
- This accomplished, the fleet in the harbor lies at
the mercy of our shells thrown front this height,
and at which, trom the great' elevation, the ships
will not be able to fire in return. Thus Sebasts
pol, town, arsenals and fleet are to be destroyed;
and yon may believe jusito much of ii as you like."
The Russian army on the howlers of Georgia, in
Asia, has made a sudden and unexpected retrogra
de movement towards Guinri. The Turks found
the Russian camp and ten guns spiked It is not
known whether the retreat was caused by the pre
sence of Schamyl with a large force near.Tiflis, or
from a report of the allied movements inithe Black
Sea. The movement gave rise to a report that
Schamyi had gained a great victory at Tiflis, in
which the Russians said they had lost seven guns,

chronicling the confirmation of the Marcy and Elgin
Treaty by the Canadian Parliament, which we do
with great pleasure, we deem it a fit occasion to
refer to the unexplained and extraordinary opposi

reneived from Mr. Buchanan, our minister to Eng
land. We learn from a perfectly authentic source
that, before the treaty was submitted to the Se
nate, Mr. Buchanan expressed his disapprobation
of it and Intimated that a strong opposition to .it
would be encountered in the Senate. Such an op
pftitiom was encountered, and it was lcd on by
by Senator Slidell, of Louisiana, Mr. Buchanan's
most active partizan friend. One of the main
grounds for their opposition to the treaty which has
been suggested to us was, that it would not be sat.

to give another statesman an advantage over Mr.
Buchanan in the competition fot the Presidency.—
Either motive is unworthy of Mr BuchananCiame

For a long series of years, the County of Brad.
ford has in the Legislature, through her Represen
unisex, advocated the measures of public policy
which are nrrw freeing the State from its embarrass
ment, and preparing it for its redemp'ion from debt
and the burden of taxation. «e can point with
pride to the votes of our members at times when
too many Demucra's from other sections of the
State wavered or proved recreant. Looking 'o an
intelligent and uncorruptible constituency at home,
to betray whose inte eats would be speedy arid cer
tain political death—they have uniformly been
found on the side of Equal Rights, and oppesed to
monopolies, banks, and other influences which year
after year clamor at the halls of the Legislature fur
-vial and unequal legislation, favoring a few at
the expenses of the many. That this course should•
be continued, should he the aim and amb,iion of
every democrat. In the election of our candidates
we have a guarantee that this county wide found
as usual, advo.•aiing in the next Legislatnre, the
policy of the party, as maintained by.) lainented
SUOMI, and advocated by our present Guvernor
BIGLER, and which, while it forms a creed of our
faith, is nevertheless in some quarters of the Stive,
so liable to be forgoren. This considera•ton alone
should infuse new zeal into eve!) . Democrat. The
next legislature will be beset by many millions of
bank capital, with its potent arguments arid cor
rupt influences, and it is essential that it should
contain men who are above suspicion, and whom
bribery dare not even approach to prevent this vast
and "unnecessary increase or continuation of our
bank capita:, without proper safe guards and re•
strictions.
Tp ensure this result, the success of Messrs. LA
PORTE and DANIELS becomes to every Demo
crat of the highest importance. With them in the
Legislature we can be certain that the interests of
the State will be carefully guarded, and despite the
thousand disreputable measures employed to non
trot the action of that body, the character and pre
vious repntation of Bradtold, will be kept untar
nished and uncorrupted.

mity.
The harpies a ho have been so long pursuing Mr.
Munn, were never more eager and bitter than
now. Forgetting that he is not a candidate for the
sufliagerof the people—that do is only exercising
a right guaranteed to every. Freeman, by express
ing his views upon the Repeal of ihe Missouri
Compromise—he is loaded with the vilest abuse,
threatened by the most terrible denunciations, his
motives mal igued,lns purposes m isrepredented,and
nis integrity even questioned. Such a perfect tem
peet of pas-ion and curses would seem wonderful,
were it at all unusual.
We gave, in our last, a synopsis of the charges
which are urged against him, for his present politi
cal course. We are aware that Mr. WILMOT has
nodesire that any friend of his should attempt a
labored vindication of him, being content that time
should Overwhelm his slanderers with confusion
and disgrace—but the s assertions in some of these
charges are so unfounffed, anl the positions assum
ed in others so untenable and unjust, that we can
not forego the opportunity to expose their falsehood
and fallacy.
The favorite cry is, that Mr. WILMOT has become
a Whig ! This is caught up, and vociferated by
men, aho have been for years striking at midi
dateii upon the Democratic ticket, and rei:erated by
othejs who have still upon their garments the savor
of FeJeialism It is used to destroy his standing
abroad, and to frighten timid friends, by making
them - believe they are to be transferred body and
soul, to the adversary. It is needless for us, here
iii Bradford, to deny such a silly imputation. Mr.
WILMOT is jest as much a Whig as when he op z
pos ed Gen CASs in I°dB;—no more, no less. He
unquestionably not give Gov. BIGILMI his sup
port. But it is not because ho does not approve of
his course as regards matters of State policy; nei
ther it because he has not a high regard for him
as a man and an ofheer ; but because he considers
his election would be an endorsement of the Na
tional Administration, and its measares, including
of course, the Repeal of the Miesouri Compromise.
Title - consideration may operate with more or less
force, with different men, and we will leave its il
lustration and consideration until alter the election.
If any of Mr. W I LAUT'II friends have any alarm
for him—if they have any apprehensions that they
will wake op some morning- and find themselves,
by a skill at necromancy casting Signor Blitz in the
shade, transferred into live Whigs, we beg of them
to quit their apprehensions. However terrible
iuch a result might be, it is not likely to occur. But
whenever the attempt is madecro make the Demo
cratic party the peculiar ally of Slavery propagand
ism, we trust that he, and every other member of
it, will be ready to 'resist such a consummation,
even to the bitter end.. And we shall allow each
individual member the privilege of determining
when that time has arrived.
Of still smaller importance is the allegation of a
bargain for the purpose of being elected U.S. Sen
ator. This ridiculous charge needs no answer, be
cause time will affold a sufficient refutation.
But not content with misrepresenting and assail.
ing his position as a partizan, Judge WlLsior's en
emies are making every attempt to cast odiam and
suspicion on him as a man, and to lessen public
confidence in him as a judge. This attempt takes
two forms:—to impeach his veracity and convict
him of inconsistency and insincerity, in certain alp
!eged transactions, pending his elec:ion as Judge,
and by insinuations and inuendoes to convince-the
public that by addressing them, ho is derogating
from the dignity of his position, and fat there its
danger that partizan feeling may sway the scales
of justice. These are grave charges--calculated,
wherever they are believed, to afiect the desired
object.
It was early known, that at the first election of
Judges under the new system, Mr. Wlimcrr would
be a candidate lot President Judge of the district
then composed of the counties of Brad lord, l ioga,
Potter and McKean. It is alleged that to procure
a change in the District, as well es afterwards to
secure his election, he made pledges that he would
" retire horn politics." It is true that Mr. Wu
himself visited Harrisburg to procure some al
trra ion in the Judicial district, but the change he
desired he was not able to procure. The proposi
tion was then made to arrange the District as at
present. It was equally well known, that Mr. Er.-
vr. ELI. would be hie competitor, and he being also
at Harrisburg, and &taring the alteration, it was
made, and Susquehanna, Bradford and Sullivan,
formed into the XIIIth Judicial District.
No pledges were required or made to effect the
change, nor was it done • specially to please or
benefit Mr. Wit.ssor any more than Mr. ELWELL,
because the blends of the latter were sanguine,
both then and at a later day, that they would suc
ceed in the Conventions of at least two of the Coun
ties, and would be triumphant at the polls.
Susquehanna County held her Convention first.
That County was looked to with considerable anx
iety; and Mr. ELwr.u.'s friends were very confi•
dent of success. Up to within a few days of that
Convention, the men, both there and here, who had
always opposed Mr. WILMOT', were zealous and
even bitter in their efforts against him. At that
time, soma of them began to show signs of waver
mg—began to doubt if true policy did not dicfate to
put Mr. WILMOT upon the bench—to keep him out
ofpolitics—and finally played false to Mr. Ezwzzz
and destroyed, whatever of chattels he might :had
for a nomination.
It is from this fact, and for the reasons which
these then gave for their treacherous conduct, that
the charge has arisen, that Mr, IVILSIOT gave any
promise, posi'ive or implied, to abstain from the
expression of his sentiments upon controverted
attltffss of public isiterejt,i, The.cause for their ac

him by their adhesion at a 'critical time—and then
.they-hoped to silence his opposition,rot Of least place
him in a position where. .his enmity would be

hardier than as at affected the•prospects of Ma. %I
-f/KAKI* in 1852; that no pledge Was asked or ex
pected of him in regard to that—the rational con
illusion being- that as the Compromises of 1850
Were generally acquiesced in by the country, the
Slavery-aggression element would not outer into the
Contest, as it did not—and, that Mr. Wrxric4 would
either remain, quiet, or support the nominee of the
Baltimore Convention.
After the Sqsquehanna Convention, Mr. Er.wra.t.
withdrew from the field, and only re-entered it
some few days before the election, the prospect be
ing that Mr. WILMOT would have no competitor.—
Under such circumstances, of course all " pledges"
were unnecessary. That men may have voted for
Mr. Wilmot hoping thereby to lessen hiwieal and
'usefulness as a partizan, may be true; but that they
bad any encouragement from him we positively
deny. We know that many of his warmest friends
withheld their support from him, because they
knew, that, except upon very extraordinary occa
sions, he would have neither time nor opportunity to
devote himself to the discussion of political ques
tions. We are aware that we have given too much
attention to this charge—that the voters will remem
ber the circumstances under which they voted for
Mr. W. and consequently its utter foundation—but
it may posibly be of consequence abroad, where
the facts are not so well understood.
The attempt to create an impression that Mr.
WILMOT, because aJudge, should have no political
opinions, and should not express his sentiments up
on subjects engrossing the attention of the Nation—
the attempt to excite public apprehension that the
system of an elective Judiciary may incur odium,
and that there is danger that the ermine may be
come soiled—the attempt to convince the public,
that because he is opposed to the Bepeal of the
Missouri Compromise, thereby hid is unfitted to
discharge his duties upon the Bench, impartially
and honestly—is of much more importance to the
publio and to Mr. WILMOT. We remember that
somewhat like this was the favorite argument urg
ed against his election. It was said that he was
t , prone to strong prejudices and sleep feelings ;"
that it would be unsafe to place him in a position
which required a cool bead, experience, a sound
judgment and perfect impartiality.
Fellow-citizens, we need oat say:to you how un
founded and unjust were all those suspicions and
allegations. His strict and rigid justice; know
ing neither friend and foe, in the discharge of
his duties, have quieted the fears of those who
doubted, and extorted the admiration of all. The
insinuation that the rights of any party are in pre
jndice from any political consideration, is unjust,
ungenerous, and will be rebuked by the public as
it deserves.
There may be those who honestly doubt the pro
priety ol a Judge taking an active part in politics.
Under monarchical governments,the Judiciary was
used for carrying out the worst - desires of tyrants
and oppressors, and it became a part of the system
to invest it with a portion of the sanctity and dig
nity which are supposed to surround crowned
heads. This feeling has prevailed in this country
to some extent, and the occupants of the bench, 01.
ten- put on a dignity and owl.like display of wisdom,
more ridiculous than prepossessing. Formerly
Judges were appointed, and were not directly re•
eponsible to the people. They were generally se
lected without regard to politics ; and it was nothing
more than justice that they should obstain Irom po
litical action.
The people, however, came to the conclusion
that they were as competent to select Judges, as a
Governor. They decided in favor of an elective
Judiciary, thus striking away the last relic of mon.
atchicalmower remaining in oor Constitution. An
eleetive`Judiciary guarantees the rights & safety of
the people, in the administration oldie laws. Judg
es are no longer sanctified—their acts belong to the
people, they are at liberty to discuss and pass
judgment upon them. Judges are no longer the
instruments to do a tyrant's"will—they become a
creation of the people. They can be made or un•
made at the pleasure of the voters, at The times
specified by the laws. After a service of ten years,
the Judge descends from the bench, endowed with
no more privileges, burthened with no more respon
sibilities than any private citizen, and his fellow.
citizens may again invest him with official station,
or not. The ermine and the flowing wig are gone ;
and the Judge is no more upon the bench than a
citizen, learned in the law, placed there, for a ape.
cified period, by his fellow-citizens, from a confi
dence in his learning, ability,impauiality and hon.
esty.
We contend that with the faithful discharge of
his duties upon the Bench, the requirements of the
station of a Judge end; beyond that, officially,he is
not responsible to the public., But.upon the Bench,
we would hold him strictly accountable; and such
is the popular feeling Jealous eyeei are upon his
conduct, ready to mark any deviation from the
strict line of rectitude and justice.
But to say that a Judge shall have no opinions
upon political subjects—to say, that he shall not
have the privilege of expressin g his views, freely
and independently, is proscription in its most re•
yoking and tyranical sense. If you deny the Pres
ident Judge of this District, the perfect freedom of
Thought and Speech, because he is called upon to
decide between man and man, where shall your
proscription end ? You must also go into the Jury
box, and deny to every partizan the right to set
therein. You deny to every Justice of the Peace,
the dearest privilege of a Freeman; and you would
forbid any intelligent, active man in the country to
be placed in any position where they might be
called to aid in the execution of the laws.
We do not believe that the Freemen of the Dis
trict intended by placing DAVID ‘VILMOT upon the .
Bench, to close his mouth forever. That wool,' be

REMEMBER that the pro-slavery Douglasites
Eire most anxious for the defeat of LAPORTE. To
effect this, they are resorting to the vilest trickery.
He is obnoxious to them because of nis bolJness
and consistency, past and present, in support of the
principle of Freedom. ft is the duty of every ho
nest voter too his part towards thwarting the de
signs of the Nebraskaitea.
ONE• VOTE.
Remember one vote has decided mighty events
in the political history of the %odd. One vote has
decided the fate of Kings, made Governors, Con
gressmen, and Senators. Then fail not every free.
man, to go to the polls and cast a vote for the true
republican candidates whose names are found
at our head. Do not taller orstay at home because
you may think there is or will be enough without
you. if all were to make such excuses fur them
selves, of course we should fail electing any one, or
leave the matter in the hands of the few who might
for unworthy motives, attend and control your sen
timents.
TURN OET EARLY,
and vote and work till the battle is fairly fought
and the victory gloriously won, and like worthy
unbought freeman proudly boast and wear it.
The Success of Our Ticket.
We trust no Democrat will heed any of the cal
culations of our opponents, in regard to the defeat
of any portion of our ticket. We can assure them
that our accounts from all quarters of the County
were ntver more favorable to the success of the
Democratic cause, than this falL All stones about
disaffection in any quarter, are sheer fabrications,
intended only to dishearten the Denioeiacy If :he
Democratic party will only do its duty, and de
posit their ballots, the victory is certain for the
WHOLE TICKET.

stacles which presented themselves in the shapes of
Indians, Mexicans and robbers ar.d he has now
the proud satisfaction of looking over thousands of
