WELCOME TO A TRUE MAN. —Hon. G! A lush a
A Grow, of Pennsylvania, is to speak in this
city on Thursday. Mr. Grow is cue of the
marked men of our country. As the author

Mr. Grow is on .' of those v. ise able,and sin
cere Reformers, who have accomplished a
great work in rooting Republicanism in the
hearts of the people. Mr* Grow—young man
us he is—is already a 'statesman in its best
sense. Ilis course in Congress proves that he
fully comprehends the wants and necessities
of the whole country. Re is already a leader
among tiie very able men in the House of Rep- i
resentatives, and, we verily believe, ii Mr. -
Grow's life is spared, he is dt -tiued to lie one
of the ruling influences of the nation. Such a
man, wc are gratified to welcome to our city
and our State, and we doubt not, that in the
warmth of his reception, he will feel the con
sciousness that the People appreciate his ser
vices in the good cause of human progress.— i

TOWANDA:
I Thursday Morning, November 8, 1860,
THE ELECTION.
Tlie magnetic telegraph never flashed along
its wires more important information, than i
when, on Tuesday night, it gathered from all I
parts of the Union, the expression of the pop- j
ular will, and demonstrated that ABRAHAM j
; LINCOLN was the choice of the people of the J
United States for their next President. To ,
; hundreds of thousands of hearts this news \
brings more of joy, than usually attaches to
political victories. They see in it, not the I
success of party, hat "the triumph of the great !
principle of Equality and Freedom which has
for years engaged the efforts of philanthropic
and disinterested men. It is not so much with
exultation, as with supreme thankfulness, we
record this result. Men may change, and j
1 parties become cxtiuct, but great principles
! never alter or die out.. The principles for
which the Republican party are battling, are
as immutable as Truth can be ; we believe ,
their ascendancy is essential to the prosperity
and permanency of our country. Ilence, when
assailed ar.d misrepresented—when imperfect
ly understood and appreciated—the friends of
Freedom have been content to suffer defeat
and obloquy, patiently awaiting the time which
was certain to come when Ametican Freemen |
should declare their approval of the principles
of Republicanism, and place at the helm of
the Government, a man whose guiding-star;
should be the example of MADISON aud Jtr-;
FERSON.
That day now dawns upon the country.— |
The bright effulgence of correct principles, al- ,
ready begins to illumine the dark recesses of !
wrong. The labor of fifteen years, meets its
fruition, and the interests of Freemen once
: more become paramount in the administration
|of the government. For at least that length j
, of time, the patronage and influence of the '
1 government has been controlled for the pur- !
pose of extending and perpetuating the sys- |
tern of Human Bondage. The sluveorracv j
; have had complete control of all branches of
the Government, and have used them all to
i advance the interests of the Slave holders.—
'
To control this power, they have shrewdly!
made nse of allies in the North But Xorth
; eru Freemen have become thoroughly enlight-1
erted and aroused. On Tuesday, their judg
ment pronounced against the policy which has
usurped the power and patronage of the na- j
: tion, for improper purposes. They have utter
ed a scathing rebuke of the, oligarchy which
has subverted all the alms and purposes of the
founders of the Republic. Wc have every
confidence that for four years to come, when
i ABRAHAM LINCOLN shall be inaugurated Pres
; ident, that the reign of conservatism w ill com
mence ; that the General Government will
: confine itself to its legitimate purposes, the
protection of our citizens in their rights at
; home aud abroad, and that slavery having j
( lost tiie support of the Government, will be
left to the quiet workings of that " irrepres- 1
1 sible conflict, ' which, in good time, will extin
guish it.
A DISREPUTABLE TRICK!
IV- day before election, the discovery was !
made that electoral tickets were in circulation,
i bearing the names of the Lincoln electors, ex
-3 1 i
I ccpt that the name of GEORGE 1) JACKSON was J
substituted for that of ULYSSES MERCTR
j These were printed to resemble the Republican ;
; tickets,and were being circulated by professed
; Republicans,as genuine votes 1 We understand
j that they were sent into almost every election
j district,under circumstances calculated to uiis
■ lead.
The object of this disreputable trirkt, wa* !
of course, to practise a fraud upon the Repub
lican voter;', by cheating them into voting for
GEORGE D. JACKSON. It was a dishonest j
scheme, to which no honorable man would be
a party. How far it has succeeded, we are
I une.ble to learn, though probably it was de- I
tected in time to prevent much mischief.
fey- It was somewhat amusing, on election j
uav to see some of our straight DOUGLAS men
walk up and support the Reading ticket upon
which arc the names of men who have declur- J
ed in writing " that they would not support \
DOUGLAS, if elected, under any circumstances." j
We have no particular province to interfere
with our Democratic DOUGLAS friends, but we
were gratified with such an exhibition of
mckness and humility.
fey-We learn from Montgomery, Alabama,
that on Friday evening Senator Douglas made
a narrow escape from a serious, if not a fatal,
accident. The Senator was addressing his !
I
friends from a steamboat, when the deck gave i
way, and with hundreds of others he was pre- S
cipitated to the deck below. Fortunately, no
one was injured, although the accident will de-
I lay the Senator's departure from Montgomery
| for a few days.
fey At the special request of a number of
prominent citizens of Georgia the United States j
Arsenal at Augusta, iu that State, has been
placed in possession of Federal troops ; and .
j the Arsenal at Fayetteville, X. C., is to be i i
, occupied by a company of the Second Cavalry j 1
at the request of citizens of that place. This
movement is intended as a measure of precau- !
tiou in view of any possible trouble which may
arise from the result of the Preeidentiul elec (
tlon
GLORIOUS VICTORY!
UNC^wiiLECflDli
!-, . i
e have delayed our paper a day in j
1 Order to be able to give to our readers the j
! result of Tuesday's election. The result
, may be summed up in few words. TIIE
TRIUMPH OF LINCOLN AND HAM
LIN, by large majorities, in probably, ev
ery Northern State. For the informa
! tion of our readers we append such par
ticulars as we have received :
MAJORITIES FOR LINCOLN.
Pennsylvania, 70,000
New York, 50,000
Maine, 25,000
Massachusetts, 70,000
Vermont, 30,000
Connecticut, .15,000
New Jersey, 2,500
Rhode Island, 4,500
Michigan, 25,000
Ohio, 35,000
Illinois 20,000
The reports are that Missouri goes fur
DOUOLAP; Virginia, Kentucky and Mary
land for BELL ; and North Carolina for
BRECKINRIDGE.
We have reports from a few Counties in
j Pennsylvania which show how the immense
; majority for Lincoln is made up. For in
| stance.
Allegh en y, 10,000
Lancaster 8,000
' ' i
Bradford 5,000
Philadelphia City 4,000
Lycoming... 1.000 !
7
In this County, we gain largely in al- 1
most every election district. The majority j
will probably reach 5,000.
gtgjr A Quebec correspondent of the New j
York Times gives particulars of u gold excite- |
inent that has sprung up iu the vicinity of the j
old Canadian capital. The locality of the new
" diggings " Is at the Cliaudicre river, about
twelve miles from Quebec, a place where gold
was picked up some years ago, but in such
small quantities as not to attract much atten
tion at the time. It seems, however,that with
in a few days past countrymen have obtained
nuggets from £GS to £lO9, and have brought
them to the city for sale. The fortunate dis
coverers of treasure have not revealed the pre
cise spot where the gold exists, but it is not
probable that it will long remain a secret
Geologists have long since established the fact
that Lower Canada abounds in precious metals
and most valuable copper mines were recently
opened, aud are now being worked under the j
auspices of an Ainvicun company. It is an
open question, however, whether the discovery
of large gold fields would be advantageous to
the province.
THE CIVIL WAR IN NEW GRANADA. —We
obtain, through our Washington correspond- j
ent, says the Xcw York Times, some late and !
important intelligence from New-Granada.— 1
It is affirmed that, in recent conflicts between
the belligerent parties,the Government troops j
have been successful, and the revolutionary <
chief, Mosquera, would soon be compelled to i
capitulate. We sincerely hope that this news j
will be confirmed by the next mail from the i
Isthmus. The opponents of the actual Ad- j
ministration in New-Granada are contending :
for no principle of political liberty, and the i
instigator of the movement, Gen. Mosqncra, j
has been prompted to rebel against the con j
stituted authorities by no other motive than j
that of a restless ambition. For many months
the people of New Granda have been k< pt in >
a fever of excitmcnt by this protracted strug
g!e. Business has been suspended, and public !
revenues lave been diverted from their legiti
male channels. Neither party appeared to lx>
sufficiently powerful to crush its antagonist,
and there was every pro I ability that if the
contest were much longer continued, the coun
try would fall a prey to a worse anarchy than
that which has cursed the neighboring Repub
lic of Mexico. The friends of New Granada
will therefore, hail with satisfaction any intel
ligence which gives even a hope that these
evils may be averted, and that peace may be
restored to a people who have had war thrust
upon them by the selfish and reckless ambition
of political demagogues.
fey* The Anti-Rent Suits were finally dis
posed of Thursday in the Supreme Court at
Albany. The Court of Appeals affirmed the j
judgment of the Supreme Court, in favor of the
landlord, and directed the record and proceed
ings to be committed the Supreme Court. The
remittitur was filled yesterday, when Judge
Hogeboom directed an order to the entered,
declaring that the judgment of the Court of
Appeals stand as the judgment of the Supreme
Court, and that the plaintiff have execution
against the defendants for damages and costs.
Under this decisiou the landlord can proceed
at once to issue executions of the judgments
rendered for the recovery of the amount claim
ed, and also the costs of the different actions.
fey* The new Federal Court llonse and
Postoffice in Philadelphia are to be erected
immediately ; the purchase of the Levy prop
erty, ou Cbestuut street, having been com
pleted.

A FAITHFUL DOG. —About two tveeks age,
j Mr. George Gilbert, who 'ives half way between Union
! Academy and Knoxville, in Tioga County, was roused in
i the nigM by tin- incessant barking of his dog. The dog
| then ran away in the direction of the House of Mr. G.'s
i father, distant almut a quarter of a mile, and thinking
j nothing was wrong, Mr. G. felt asleep. About day-break
He arose, and on opening his door the dog grabbed him
by the pants and pulled him in the direction of bis barn,
on reaching which, he discovered that a line young horse
had been stolen. He immediately followed the robber,
and in a few hours lie found his colt hitched to a tree in
Westficlfl. The horse had been foun l to he tooyonng to
ride wcli.and to prevent discovery the thief had left him
and " took to the woods.''

I of our readers to this old ard most efficacious remedy
ft has stood the test of time, and then* is no town in the
Union but mo produce witnesses of its wonderful effects
in curing all lung disease s. That it is unequalled end
alone is generally acknowledged by all druggists throngh
j out the country. It stands on the finne-t basis of any of
■ the patent medicenes,and from many assurances given of
its great virtue#, we believe it is destined to supercede

CI.ALK'S FAMILY SEWING MACHINE.—About
nine months since Clark's Sewing Machine was intro
duced into our county bv B. F. Shaw, who has sold to
! our citizens upwards of one hundred of them, and they
arc spoken of in the highest terms by all who are using
them—and whenever used are preferred to all others for
family purposes. There is no other machine as. simple
in construction, as perfect in its mechanism or effectivg
in its operation and consequent durability; and upon
these merits it was awarded tiie first premium at the
State Fair at Wyoming, and the St. Louis Mechanical
Fair, it w ill be seen by reference to the advertisement
iu another column that these machines are warranted to
j give satisfaction or the purchase money refunded. Now
j is the time to try them while your full and winter cloth-
I ing is to be made. Again we say, try them before pur
! chasing elsewhere, for you have nothing to lose ia ca-e
! of failure.

Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry.
Coughs, Colds. Bronchitis, Asthma, Croup, I Chopp
ing Cough. Quinsy, and the numerous as well as danger
j ous diseases of the Throat, Chest and Tungx, prevail in
our changeable climate, at all seasons of the year ; lew
are fortunate enough to escape their baneful influence.—
How important then to have at hand a certain antidote
to all these complaints. Experience proves that this ex
ists in Hit tar's Balsm to an extent not found in any
other remedy ; however severe the suGering, the appli
cation of this soothing, healing and wonderful Balsam at
once vanquishes the disease and restores the sufferer to
wonted health.
I.titer from Horace Cooidge. K<q., of Fian'foid.
FKANKKOKT, (Herkimer C 0.,) N. Y.,Nov. 1, 1539.
Messrs. S. W. FOWI.ER A Co., Boston, —
In tin* fill of Ist? | took a severe cold, which settled
upou my lungs, where it remained without relaxation. 1
tried several kinds of medicine and consulted several
physicians, but received no benefit. The fall of IS4-
foind me completely prostrated—confined to my bed
with the same severe cough, accompanied with severe
pain in mv side, profuse sweats and restless nights. Mv
family and friends as well as my-elf, supposed my time
to die had come At this crisis I sent for a bottle of
I V'islar's Hah am of ll'i/d Cherry, and wonderful to re
late. before Iliad used the first bottle my cough had
greatly subsided, my night sweats hail left me. my appe
tite returned, my pulse became regular, I slept sonndlv.
and was soon able to be out and attend to business. *1
then consulted an able physician in relation to the course
I had pursued and the medicine I had taken : he advised
me to continne to use the Balsam, which I did, and found
myself a well man ; and now, at an age exceeding fifty
years, enjoyed as good health as ever before.
Wheiever, during the last ten years, 1 have found an
individual suffering from cough, I have always r com
mended tin- Balsam, and, in numerous cases, have sent
it gratuitously to the suffering poor. In conclusion, I
would say what I have said a great many times before,
that the Balsam, with God's blessing, saved mv life.
HORACE COOLIDGE.
BUT Caution to Purchasers. The only genuine H is'
tar's Balsam has the written signature of " I. BUTTS "
and the printed one of the Proprietors on the outer
wrapper ; all other is vile and worthless.
