WHAT AN OLD WHIG THINKS CF THE " PEO
PLE'S PARTY."
Mr. GOODRICH. — I am oue of those old
whifis who joined the Republican party when
it was first organized. I never supposed that
tbe change of party worked any change of
principle*, but souie of my former friends are
telling me now that the Republican party is
all wrong and insist that 1 must join a new
party composed of old whigs and democrats.—
But I can't see my way clear yet. These
former friends of otitic tell me that Republicans
who were once whigs can't get any office in
the republican party and therefore they ought
to break up that party, and form one iu which
whigs can get office. This looks very strange
to me, 1 hud supposed until now, that whigs
were " living in clover," so far as office was
concerned. 1 know that the Sheriff of the
County is on old Whig and so are the Record
er nil three of the County Commissioners and
both Representatives, and J. C. ADAMS is
counsel to the Commissioners, and he was nev
er a republican,hut always a whig. One would
suppose the officers named ought to satisfy nny
reasonable set of office seekers, but not being
ju the line of office myself, perhaps 1 am not
a proper judge of what is right iu such mat
ters. 1 have about made up my mind that the
Trouble is, that a new set of old whigs are
wauting office now or that some of the old
ones are about to loose their hold upou the
public pap, and that they make ali the noise
mid bustle in certain quarters. I am the more
inclined to believe this from facts that nil those
waged in the attempt to destroy the repub
lican party appear to be disappointed office
seekers, backed up by the democrats to u man
You wont catch many honest republicans iu any
such an arrangement as that. I ain pursuad
ed that the whole thing is a dishonest gurne
to transfer us to the pro slavery democracy,
I shall keep clear ot the whole clan, and
I advise every republican to do the same
thing. W. D.
" THE TUSCARORA CAUCUS."
We notice in the Argus of the 18th mst.,
nu article stating that " at some time beticem
the Caucus (in Tascarora) and the Conven
tion" (in Towanda,) the Board made out ere
licnt afs for a set of di'legates admitted to the
Convention. To show when the credentials
were made, we submit the following state

"VIC SAID IT WOULDN'T DO."
One of the nominating committee of the
office seekers me tin?, which placed in nomin
ation the so-called " INoplc's ticket," on being
asked how it happened that he did not sup
port MCKEAN for Congress when he had
pledged himself to do so, replied that he want
ed T > nominate MCKEAN, but Yic said it
wouldn't do. Are the honest Republicans of
Bradford willing to be made tools of that
nrcli-demagogue Y. E. PIOI.RKT ? Such men
as TRACY and the editor of the Argus may he
fooled, but the hone-t yoemanry of the county
will discountenance the whole matter, and give !
the Republican ticket an overwhelming raajur
ity.
UNGRATEFUL.
There are men engaged iu the unrighteous ■
attempt to destroy the Republican party in
this ci unty who deserve pecaliar condemna
tion. They are those who joined the party
early end clutched at the office* within tbe
power of the party to bestow, and having re
"lized all the advantages lhay expect to gain
iu that way, tiaiv tarn round upon friends who
have supported them and given them ril the
political consequence they have ever obtained I
and use every effort to effect their political
ruin. Today there aTe •men ■snugly enjoying'
offices bestowed upon them by the Republican
party, who are plotting—some of them openly I
aud others secretly—its utter overthrow. Y r e i
will not trust ourselves to characterize such !
conduct further than to say it is very ungrate ■ j
ful.
" C "
THE Secrders style themselves the
" People's Party," and claim to be in harmony
with that party in other portions of the State.
The genuine People's Parly, wherever it has!
an organization, battles against the Democra-'
cy. It is, and has been for years, in harmony
the Republican party of the North end
West. The spurious " People's Party "of
Bradford, organized by disappointed candi
dates for nomination before the Republican
Convention, is in perfect accord with the De
mocracy, airrfTelies on the united vote of the
Democratic party to elect its ticket. The
People's Party of {Southern Pennsylvania—
where alone it has an existence wars against
Pie pro-slavery B.eckinridge Democracy, as
the enemy of the Administration and the War
—here the People's Party end the Democracy i
go hand in hand.
THE 13TH REGT. PKNNA. MILITIA.— This I
regiment is one of the very best which has
"lurched from the Capital. It is made tip of j
'°ur companies from Bradford, two or three i

•trough several bailies, the last of which was

compelled to resign cootmaijd of bis cote- ',
pany for a time, is an officer who will never
shrink from duty, and who has the ability and
experience to render efficient service to a new
regiment. The men of this regiment left their
homes under the call of the Governor for the
defence of the State> but without hesitation,
while the battle was raging fiercely at Sharps
burg, they marched directly to llagerstown by
order of Gen. Reynolds, in order to reach Wil
liamsport in time to aid in preventing the en
: etny from crossing the Potomac, but the eue
my hud succeeded in crossing the night before
: their arrival, and have made their way back
with their shattered army into Virginia,
j While these men have been prevented by the
retreat of the enemy from participation in an
engagement, they are entitled to the credit of
having done their whole duty.
We notice among them many prominent and
influential men, lawyers, merchants, &e. As
Captain of one company, we notice E. O.

Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
\ COMPOUND REMEDY, in which w
JL. A have lul>red to produce the most effei tual altera
tive that van !< made. It i a concentrated extract of
Para Sarsaparilla, so combined with other sulistances of
still greater alterat ; vc power as to afford an effective an
tidote tor the diseases Sa-snparilla K reputed to cure. It
is believed that such a remedy is wantcj by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one which will
accomplish their cure must prove of immense set vice to
this large class of our aftticted lellow citizens. Mow com
pletely this compound will do it has been proven by ex
perinent on many of the worst cases to be found of the
iollowing complaints:—
SCROFULA AND SCROFULOUS COMPLAINTS, ERUPTION#
aNp EKUFTIVK DISEASES, ULCER*, PIMPLES, BLOTCHES,
TUMORS, SALT RHEUM, SCALP HEd, Svp hii.LS ASP
SYPHILITIC AFFECTIONS, MKRCURIAL DISEASE, DROPSY,
NEURALGIA OK TIC DOULOUREUX, DEBILITY, DYSPEPSIA
ANp I.NPIGKSTtON, ERYSIPELAS, HOPE OR St. ANTU'WY'*
FIRE, and indeed the whole class of complaints arising
Irom IMPURITY of TDE BLOOP.
This compound wi 1 be found a great promoter of
health, when taken in the spring, to expel the foul hu
mors which fester in the blood at that season of the year.
By the timely expulsion of them many rankling disor
ders are nipped in the bud- Multitudes can by the aid
of this remedy, spare themselves Iron the endurance of
foul eruptions and ulcerous soros, through which the
system will strive to rid itself of corruptions, if not as
sisted to do this through the natural channel* ol the
body by an alterative medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated
blood whenever you tinu its impurities bursting through
the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores ; cleanse it when
you find it is obstructed and sluggish in the veina ;
cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder i* felt,
people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleansing
the blood. Keep the blood healthy, ami all is well ; but
with this pabulum of life disordered, there can be no
lasting health. Sooner or later something must go
wrong, and the great machinery of life is disordered or
overthrown.
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the reputation,
of accomplishing these ends. But the world has been
egregiouslv deceived by preparations ol it, portly because
the drug alone has not all the virtue that is claimed for
it, but more because many preparations, pretending to be
concentrated extracts of it, contain but little of the vir
tue of Sarsaparilla, or any thing else.
During late years the public have been misled by large
bottles, pretending to give a quart ol Extract ot SHr.-a
parilla for one dollar. Most of these have been fraud*
upon the sick, for they nut only contain little, if any,
Sarsaparilla, but often 110 curative properties whatever.
Hence, bitter and paintul disappointment has toliowcd
the use of the various extracts of Sar-aparilla which
tiood the market, until the name itself is justly despised,
| and has become synonymous with imposition and cheat.
Still we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend to
supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the
load of obloquy which rests upoh it. And we think we
have ground tor believing it has virtues which are ir
resistable by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intend
ed to crue. In order to secure their complete eradica
tion from the system, the remedy should be judiciously
taken according to directions on the bottle.

Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,
has won for itself such a renown for the cure of every
variety of Throat and l.ung Complaint, that it is entirely
unnecessary for us to recount the evidence ol its virtues,
wherever it has been employed. As it has long been in
constant use throughout this section, we need not do
more than assure the people its quality is kept up to the
best it ever has been, and that it may be relied on to do
for their relief all it has ever been .ouud to do.
