    &iT Tiie Hon. Theadore G. Hunt lias been
beaten as a candidate for Congress in New
Orleans. The district has ever been strongly
Whi" and Mr. Hunt was elected as a Whig
in 1853. receiving 0,555 votes to 5,445 for
his Democratic opponent. Even Gen. Scott,

tion Ac., received a majority of 1,115 in the
District. Eh>quent, chivalrous aud winning,
Mr Hunt was in all things the high-toned

n „t he undone, declared that he should resist |
anv attempt to re-establish the Missouri Re- j
gtriction. idle concession ! tardy retraction ! i
The Slave Power had marked him for destruc
tion and its vengeance could not be averted.
Mr Hunt is beaten bv his Democratic oppo
nent in that strong Whig district— beaten on
ly because he stood by the compact imposed
bv the South on the North. And yet there
a * rt . Northern men (in location) who tell us
that the North must not try to save Kansas j
from Slavery by organizing and acting to that j
but must rather appeal afresh to the mag- j
nanimitv and good faith of the South ! —JV a- j

" FISH AND PHILOSOPHY "
DR. JOHN M'IXTOSH,
Would inform the Inhabitants of Bradford county
that he respectfully solicits COO subscribers for his local
work entitled'• FISH AND PHILOSOPHY", or Sketches
made During a Short Sojourn in Northern Pennsylvania."
The hook will con -ir-t of from 250 to 300 page's, 12m0.,
and will be bound in embossed muslin. The price will be
*I,OO. As the work was not written to vindicate
any particular theory, or to advance any particular inte
rest. it is difficult to say what it aims at —further than to
help while away a leisure hour or two, in what the Au
thor hopes, not unprofitable reading.
The pages are chiefly devoted to descriptions of local
scenery ; incidents while Trouting on the Schrader branch;
literary criticisms and reminiscences ; conversations, de
velopments of local character, poetry and philosophical
reflections.
As the publication of the book is not a question of
bread, the author can use the liberty of speaking plain—
la the first place, then, he cannot afford to publish the
book unaided—nor would he if he could ; for the simple
reason, he is unwilling to shoulder the responsibility of
committing a—possibly—poor book to the world, no
therefore seeks to make a corporate concurs of it, and
thus share with the subscribers the odium of failure,
should it fail. It is a purely gratuitous matter, gentle
men, sign, or not sign. In the second place, the author
is una illing to have his .stock of books added to, by too
many hundred copies of a work that failed to redeem the
price of its publication : neither does he desire the horror
of witnessing the awful spectacle of an auto-da-fe, of what
cost hiin so much pains and time to create :—for he cer
tainly would commit to the flames what remained unsold
of the edition, should they remain too long on his hands.
He is determined to pay the publisher ou the receipt of
t'.to edition, should it be printed, asking no favors; and if
600 .subscribers can he bad, he will do so. He cau afford,
however, to wait, should the COO refuse to conic to the
rescue. The MS will not diminish in value. It will ra
main as it has done, cherished by the owner, as w as cher
ished and lowd '• the poor man's one little ewe lamb,that
was unto him as a d.Higher." The author ill ask uo one
to undertake to publish it on the strength of its merits :
perhaps from pride, perhaps Iroin a prophetic apprehen
sion of its lack of merit, l'ime—perhaps—will determine
if he did well to be influenced by the latter consideration.
The author will further say, that should the desired num
ber of subscriptions be obtained, he will feel tempted to
promise an embellished frontispiece.enclosing a medallion
likeness of the principal character, Dr. Plum. And should
a second edition follow , he—the author—will exert all'tLe
influence lie can command to secure for the original sub
scribers a lock of that distinguished individual's hair; as
thank Heaven, he is appreciative, and. judging frontalis
autei edents. the author has no doubt that Flum would
gladly wear a wig lor a whole year, to have the pleasure
of furnishing to iiis friends so interesting a souvenir.
The publication of the book, then, is dependent on the
receipt of iio(i subs* riher<, and one month will lie allowed
for names to be given in. If, at the expiration of that time
only "IK- person lias subscribed, or anv other number be
tween that ami OOO— unless very closely approximating it
- the book vs ill not of course be expected to see the light.
But, if the entire number be obtained, those who have
signed, will, iu three months from the closing of the sub
scription lists, be supplied with a copy, or copies, as they
may have ordered.
[subscription lists will be opened on Monday next,at all
the stores, and at the P. O. in the borough : and at H.
Hkkuick's, at Athens. At Burlington, there will tie one
at Me->rs. Lom; A Merry's store, and at I 'lster Mr. John
M a tiier , and at Monroe. Mr. S*:ymoi"r I'iiinset, will act
as agents. Others may be- authorized.
